ITunes doesn't show some playlists for sync with iPhone ...

I've got a few smart playlists.
The annoying thing now is that some of them do not show up under "my iphone" / Music / Playlists.
So I can't sync them to my iPhone ;-(
I used to have this smart playlist in the iPhone section of iTunes - but I can't remember when it disappeared.
For instance, I've got a smart playlist that contains some of the latest episodes of some podcasts.
It is populated fine, but it does not show up in the playlists for sync with my iPhone.
Another smart playlist (which I call "random pop") contains some music from my music collection.
This one does show up in the iPhone section of iTunes ...
BTW, just in case you wonder why I have this smart playlist containing some episodes of the podcasts: first, there are some episodes that I don't care for on my iPhone; second, with this little trick I can jump by a simple double-click to the next episode, no matter which podcast it belongs to, while listening to my iPhone.
Any insights, tips, and suggestions will be highly appreciated!
Best regards,
Gabriel.

Mystery solved: the playlist is now under "my Iphone" / Podcasts / Include Episodes from Playlist ...

Windows 7 Music Library doesn't show some of my album art all of a sudden. No solutions found!!

So my music files in my music folder on the computer still doesn't show the album art. some of the art covers still exist on the music files but newly downloaded and some music files that existed don't show the album art anymore.
I've tried most of the solutions online but none of them solved the problem. I don't think it's the media player because when I play it on the media player it shows the album art for the music. And I also cleared the cashe in the mediaplayer folder. There
must be something with the system because the folder showed the cover art before but all of a sudden it stopped displaying them.
I don't know what's wrong with it...is there something that makes the music album art not show all of a sudden and the album art doesn't show for the newly downloaded music as well...

Hi haydnan
It may be a problem of Windows 7 Explorer. First you can try all the different explorer views, title, Large icon..
If there is no effect, you can try to the following methods.
In Windows Explorer
1. left click on the mail folder where your music is stored and select it.
2. Now right click and go to “properties”.
3. Now click “advanced”.
4. Put a check in the “Allow files in this folder to have contents indexed in addition to file properties”.
5.Click ”OK”.
6.Click”Apply”.
7. Click “OK” to apply changes to this folder. Sub folders and files.
Now go to your music library and see if it works.

Problems displaying SOME album art for Home Movies in iTunes 11.1.4

I have a number of home videos in my iTunes 11.1.4 library on my Mac. I have manually added album art to each video, but only about half the movies actually show the album art when viewing the movies from the Home Videos tab in iTunes. The other half of the movies just show a frame of the movie. I double checked Get Info for the movies that aren't displayed the album art and confirmed that the album art is listed. All the album art I uploaded is of the same size and file type. Not sure why half the art displays and half doesn't. Anyone else see this before? I'm puzzled.
Thanks

I don't know if you got your answer this this post is from about 3 months ago. I've also been having the same issue.
On my end, I've been keeping all of my movie files on an external drive and just as your situation, only some of them appear and some of them are missing. I don't know if it's as a result of having them on an external drive and anytime I launch iTunes, it's not always plugged in. I'd have to do a bit more testing on that.
I did notice that as soon as I select the "Get Info" on a movie file with missing artwork and confirm that it's there in the metadata by just clicking "ok", it appears automatically in the iTunes window. Seems like a quick and easy solution for now, but not so if you have 300+ movies and you have to do the step for every other one.
If you figured out a solution for this or what worked for you, I'd be glad to hear it.

Some album art does not show!!!

Running iTunes 8 and have converted my whole CD collection using Easy CD Extractor. The files are converted to AAC+ and are easily imported into iTunes using the Add Folder... BUT the funny thing is that when I then try to import album arts which I have scanned from my CD:s original covers there are some albums that will not show even if I am using exactly the same procedure for every other imported song, the same file format (jpeg), same resolution and size How is it possible that a few of my albums will not show any album art even if they are processed exactly the same way as all the other CD:s in my collection??? I have tried both drag and drop, as well as doing it from within the "Info... dialogue".

Thanks Katrina, I did try this (or part of it before I saw your link to the excellent article on how to do this properly). But I have a couple of problems with this explanation (which could still be correct). First when I was iTunes in Vista in "normal"-mode, I was still able to add album arts to most of my albums (all comming from my CD:s, ripped with the same software, etc) and residing in the same folder (Music)... So how is it possible that SOME of my music files are "locked", and as you suggest, read-only, and some are not??? This might still be "correct", it is possible, but then it is clearly a bug in Vista. Secondly I am the only user of this computer, logged in as an Adminstrator. Still, Vista could of course mark some of my music files as read only, but I still concider that as a bug on the Vista part.
What is even more annoying is that iTunes did not notified me that it could add the album art, it just didn't without explanation, the same did TagScanner. Only MP3Tag did give me feed back that it could not write the album art to the file. I assume it would not be such a difficult task to add a feature to iTunes that will notify the user that it is unable to add album art because of this and that, and suggest (like you did) a way to solve the problem...

IOS 8 Some album art lost after iOS upgrade 8 now running 8.0.2 still all music from iTunes

After iOS 8 update on iPhone 5C some album art lost - now running 8.0.2 still same issue- all music from iTunes Store.
I have reset the Phone - not sure what more I can do.

You are not alone:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Syncing iphone and can't seem to transfer audiobooks that i have put in a playlist. Sync menu doesn't show all playlists. Help

syncing iphone and can't seem to transfer audiobooks that i have put in a playlist. Sync menu doesn't show all playlists. Help

I have the same problem with podcast playlists. When I go to the music window in my iPhone devices section, the playlists I have created on my macbook pro in iTunes do not appear as an option to sync with the iPhone. I know some web radios streams, like the BBC, won't transfer because of compatibility issues, but the playlists of podcasts that I have created consist entirely of podcasts downloaded from the podcasts section on the iTunes Music Store. They used to show up and sync properly before I upgraded to OS 5.1.1, but now they don't.
Does anyone have a fix and am I right in surmising that the cause is a glitch in OS 5.1.1?

Some album art not displaying in

I have the latest firmware release (.60.0). After either syncing via an app or simply dragging and dropping via Media Explorer, some album art does not display properly in my ZVM in the Album art view nor when the song is played. The method I used is embedding the image directly in the MP3 tags. I only use the MP3 format.
I love my ZVM!

It sounds as if I had the same problem, which bugged the **** out of me, until about 10 minutes ago. I mucked around for ages with iPad and iPhone with some success before they would reset themselves to some odd settings i.e. artwork not matching correct album, couldn't delete songs from iPhone etc.! Very frustrating.
So tonight I did the following:
1. I have Homesharing turned ON as i use iPad/iPhone as a remote;
2. on iPad and/or iPhone make sure that the device(s) is signed into your Home Share - appleID is completed in "Settings"/"Music";
3. on iPad go to Music (orange icon, not in Settings) and press "More" then "Shared" and choose your host machine's library and NOT "My iPad". Same for iPhone too.
Hope that helps,
Matt

How do i get itunes 11 to display my album art while in list mode like it did in the previous version?

How do i get itunes 11 to display my album art while in list mode like it did in the previous version?

I think the Sidebar preview image is gone. But found that when I'm playing music either from the entire library or a playlist you can click the tiny thumbnail at the top to open a Artwork based player that is scalable. Reduce (minimize) the main Itunes window and the player is actually Nice. Hope that helps.

ITunes doesn't show Google as option for contact sync

I'm trying to sync my Google contacts with my 5gen Nano using iTunes 9.0.0.70 on Windows XP (2005 tablet edition, SP3). I'm following the instructions on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1245 and http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138744&cbid=-4q5r0l4gj gdw&src=cb&lev=answer
iTunes doesn't show an option for syncing with Google. When I go to My iPod > Contacts, and enable to "Sync contacts from" checkbox, I just see an option for "Windows address book" and "Microsoft Outlook" but nothing else.
*How do I get iTunes to show Google as a sync source?*
I've poked around on the intertubes a bit and seen mention of gconsync.exe. It's present under "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin" and executes when I run it (generating a wad of help info).
TIA

I guess you missed the part in the instructions where it says "if you have an iPhone or iPod touch". Those instructions won't work with an iPod nano, unless someone here knows a trick or workaround I've not heard of.

ITunes doesn't show even though open, then freezes all applications

To continue the title of the thread "iTunes doesn't show even though open, then freezes all applications and warns me of a failed raid 1 array on shutdown, even though it works fine"
Hi, I have this problem where I press the iTunes shortcut and nothing happens. I look a the processes and itunes.exe is running using its normal 34mb of ram (or something like that). After I've done this, if I try to load firefox or IE, they also freeze and won't load.
Then when I goto restart it warns me of iaamonitor notify app. After googling, I leanrt this is something to do with failing raid 1 arrays, but everything is fine.
I am now in vista on the same pc using dual boot, where iTunes is running fine, but since this problem has started I have tried deleteing the itunes stuff from application data in the documents and settings, deleting the my music folder, turning off all services and startup that isnt microsoft in msconfig and uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and quicktime. Nothing has worked.
Can anybody help me? I've read so many pages from google that this seems to of happened to a fair few people in the past and I don't want to have to resort to formatting my PC. Any help would be very appreciated.

Thank you! You guys are the best! It would have taken me awhile to figure that one out! These Support Discussions have helped me out over and over.
