I have tried loading 3 different cds that I just bought into Itunes and I click the import cd button and it goes through the motions of importing the cds, but when I go to my library none of these cds is there.  Help, please!

I have tried loading 3 different cds that I recently purchased into Itunes.  I click the import cd button and Itunes goes through the motion of copying and importing the cds, but the songs are not in my music library.  I have searched everywhere to find where these cds might be, but to no avail.  Could really use some help here.  Never used to have this problem.

Are they in the relevant artist & album folders when you look via Windows Explorer. If so something may have gone wrong with the index of the Music playlist. Download the current iTunes Free Single of the Week. I know it sounds odd, but it should fix the problem.
If that doesn't work close iTunes and delete the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder, then start iTunes again. It should run a consistency check when it starts up.

    1. Quit Logic Pro
    2. In the Finder, press and hold down the "option" key then select "Library" from the "Go" menu
    3. Open the "Preferences" folder

  • HT1386 I am having trouble synching all 1700 songs that I just put into iTunes Music Match onto my iPod Classic device. It worked on my iTouch and iPad devices but not the Classic. How do I transfer the music successfully

    I am having trouble synching all 1700 songs that I just put into iTunes Music Match onto my iPod Classic device. It worked on my iTouch and iPad devices but not the Classic. How do I transfer the music successfully

    It should sync the same if the songs are the same. You can try:
    - Unsyncing all music and resysncing
    - Restoring the iPod
    BTW, yo posted in the iPod touch forum

  • My iphone synced and on the bar( that shows the gigs) says i have all my music in my phone but when i look at my phone none of my music is there...

    I had a bunch of CD's i put in on my itunes and wanted to put it in my phone but it didn't work and swiped all my music previously that has been on my phone.  I dont know how to fix this and dont know how to sync my music in.  I keep syncing and it says on the bar where it separates (other, audio, video, etc) that my audio is sync with all my music but when i look in my library it has none of the music that has supposedly synced.  Please help me. 

    This can happen if iTunes gets confused about what is and isn't on the device. These steps should resolve.
    Backup the device.
    Restore as a new device.
    Restore the backup made earlier.

  • HT204074 I am trying to download apps to the iPad that we just purchased from iTunes.   I click on all the apps I want downloaded and it keeps telling me I need to authorize this computer .  I have done what they told me to do and still wont let me downlo

    I am trying to downloadapps onto the iPad we just purchased, and it keeps telling me that I need to authorize my computer.  I go ahead and authorize by going into iTunes/store/authorize computer, I verify the information that is given.  I go back and try to redownload the apps and I get the same exact message, this computer is not authorized for this device.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have been trying to work through this problem by myself and have so far downloaded the most current version of iTunes.  Frome there when it tells me I have to authorize this computer, I had to not put in the iPad information, I had to authorize with my current iTunes information, and any iPad or iPod, iPhone information.  I have several people in the family that have different accounts, so I had to authorize each and every individual account because I didnt know which apps or music was purchased under which user.  Hope this helps others....  Good luck!!

  • HT1751 I foolishly tried to set up two libraries for two diff. ipods. Now my original library is changed and all the music I purchased is not listing.   In purchased I see 906 songs - but I cannot get them to show up as a list - is there help out there?

    I tried to set up two libaries so my two ipods could sync different kinds of music. This wiped out my original Itunes - I have been trying to get it back to the way it was.  I have is backed up on Simple Save but do not want to plug that aback in since I am afraid it will then take up the new situation instead of allowing me to put the data on simple save back to the computer for Itunes.   I want to show my 908 songs that I have purchased and I cannot seem to do this... It shows in purchased= as 0-8 - but I cannot get them to list.   What am I doing wrong.  I know I should have left it alone and never attempted something I know nothing about~  Thanks

  • Movie won't play on my iPad that I just bought off iTunes

    I downloaded a movie from iTunes to my iPad and it shows up but won't play it has a little cloud with an arrow when I click it it says I can't download it again for 90 days with this same ID? When I push the play button it starts to load to play then it stops and returns to the previous screen help please,,,,

    Try closing the Videos app completely and see if it works when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Videos app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't fix it then try is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • After the last update of itunes I seem to have lost all my music (Cds that I had downloaded into itunes) except the once I had purchased from the itunes store. Can anyone help? Do you know what might have happened?

    After the last update of itunes I seem to have lost all the music that I had downloaded from my Cds. It was a lot of music! All I still have is the music that I had purchased in the itunes store. And before you asked. No, I did not have a backup. Never got around to do it.
    Does anyone of you have an idea if and how I can maybe get my music back?
    Your help is very much appreciated. Would it help if I recover my computer from an earlier date?? I am not even sure if I make sense here.

    Hi - I seem to have a similar problem. I was prompted to update to iPhoto 11 yesterday (don't know why yesterday, I'm in iPhoto all the time). So I followed the instructions, library updated, all existing events and albums are there. I uploaded some more pictures and created a few new albums and did some new year spring cleaning, moving stuff around etc. And I started making a calendar.
    I've opened it up today, my calendar is still there as are all the new events, but the pictures are empty outlines. If I open up a picture I just get the "!" but I can still see the thumbnails showing in the slider in the bottom - I don't know if that means the source files must still be there somewhere, or if it just means it captured thumbnails yesterday.
    I've gone into it via "show package contents" and there just don't seem to be any masters for an upload yesterday. I also just had a look in the last import folder, because of a comment from someone above. As I scrolled down through the folder the images were there and literally disappeared in front of me - by which I mean, the thumbnails were there as I scrolled down and then would turn into empty outlines...!
    All my old folders are still there, thankfully (although they're of course the ones that are also all safely back up).
    Although I have a timecapsule, my photo library is too big to keep on my hard drive, so I keep it on an external drive - so it only gets backed up when I do it manually (thanks Apple for that, I will never understand why it was designed to work - or not work - that way). So if the pictures have been lost then they are gone for good which is super-frustrating (I just got back from South Korea and was in the middle of sorting out all my shots from that trip).  It seems that this can only have happened because of the update - I should have known better than to have pressed yes.
    If you have any ideas, I'd be most grateful!
    Regards

  • I have recently bought a new macbook pro because my macbook's screen was broken. I had all my files backed up but when I opened my iphoto library on my computer it  asks me to upgrade the library - which i did, only to find over a thousand photos missing.

    I have had the files re-backed up but am hesitant to do the upgrade to my library. anyone have another solution???

    How did you have your ties backed up?nhow did you restore them? Have you tried restoring again?

  • I cannot get an app that I just purchased via iTunes to download onto my iPad. It is not music. It shows up on my computer but not on my iPad.

    I just purchased an app for my iPad (iOS 7.1)via iTunes. (It is not music.) I cannot find it on my iPad to download; it has not shown up on my display with my other apps. It does, however, show up on my MacBookPro. I have checked the iTunes on my iPad; the app does not show there. Where do I go from here?

    If you purchased directly on the iPad, it should have downloaded automatically.

  • I am trying to add a new credit card and it keeps telling me that I have to enter a valid security code...I have tried 2 different cards and it is doing the same thing. How do I get past this?

    I guess it has been a year since I last purchased something on I-tunes and my account is saying that they couldn't authorize my card for some of my purchases.  I am trying to add a new credit card to clear this up and it keeps saying that I have to enter a valid security code.  I have tried 2 different cards and I get the same thing.  I have also added an I-tunes gift card and that isn't clearing up the money that I owe.  It is showing that I have a $25 credit for that.  How do I fix this, I have been trying for days and all I have got from the e-mail tech support is that its my credit card issuer that is causing the problem.  Thats not correct because one of the credit cards that I am trying to use, is a prepaid Visa gift card.  I know that these work on I-tunes because I have used them before in the past.  I am getting very frustrated with this whole process, I just want to clear up my account and buy some new music!! HELP!!

    Most likely the phone is locked to a carrier that you haven't tried yet.

  • I have just got an iMac 21" and it continuously freezes when it goes to sleep and also when the internet is trying to load, i have tried three different browsers but it still does it (safari, google chrome and firefox), does anyone know what is wrong?

    I have just got an iMac 21" and it continuously freezes when it goes to sleep and also when the internet is trying to load, i have tried three different browsers but it still does it (safari, google chrome and firefox), does anyone know what is wrong?

    To fix the freezing when sleeping problem go to System Preferences>Energy Saver and set 'Computer Sleep' to 'Never'. It seems there is a problem for some with Bluetooth failing to wake after sleep. This fixes it 100% for me and many others on here, until Apple issue a software update to address it.
    Not sure what to suggest on the internet problem. I assume you are connected and receive and send emails OK.
    Edit: To try to troubleshoot the internet issue maybe try turning the Firewall off: System Preferences>Security & Privacy>Firewall tab.
