Itunes music downloaded to iPad 2 but doesn't show up under "music" app

We have a lot of music in iTunes on the Mac, most of which is from CDs we own. We synced to new iPad 2 and it shows they all went in, but can't get any of the music to show. the "music" button says nothing is there. the "Itunes" button only takes us to the store.

First of all - songs do go to the Music app for playing on the iPad - not iTunes. Look in the Music app. If it's not there - this may help ....
When you sync the iPad with iTunes - you have to select the music to sync within the Music Tab of iTunes. the Sync Music Heading must be checked and the albums, artists, playlists, etc must be selected as well in order to sync.
These kb articles should be of some help. It works the same way on the iPad.

    Use the technique described in this thread: I can't install airport utility 5.6
    Though it discusses Mountain Lion, you need to follow the exact same steps for OS X 10.7.5.
    I no longer have any original AEBSs to test. You may need an even earlier version of AirPort Utility. If AirPort Utility 5.6 cannot configure yours, let me know and I will attempt to find the correct version for you. You will need to use the same "extraction" technique described above.
    Edit: If 5.6 does not work try this one: AirPort Utility 5.5.3
    Important: If you elect to drag that version to your Utilities folder, be sure to give it a unique name. I suggest "AirPort Utility 5.5.3" This is not necessary for AirPort Utility 5.6, which will retain that name on its own.

    If you mean finding your IP address you have to enter the router's settings via a web browser. and go to the Status page. It will likely be under the heading Internet Port. Then you can Google for:
    who owns XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
    where the x's is the IP address.

  • Windows media player files will not play. I downloaded the plug in but does not show up under plugins. Why won't it load?

    Whenever I try to play a wmv file through firefox it will not load. It was not a problem a few weeks ago. Under plugins it is saying I do not have windows media player. So I tried downloading it using the troubleshooting directions from firefox. But it still will not show up under plugins. Any help would be much appreciated.

    '''np-mswmp''' in your Installed Plugins listing ''(in '''More system details''' to the right of your posting)'' is the Windows Media Player plugin for Firefox.

  • Mac OS X downloads 7.0.1 but doesn't show Icon for transfer to apps

    Download is confirmed, but saved file does not get to Firefox Icon for transfer to applications. No icon is displayed after long wait.

    After fooling around with several approaches, I opened the file in the download folder; that brought up just the 7.0.1 icon alone, without the app icon shown.
    I then dragged it to the apps folder in finder and saw the Firefox icon pop up in the dock. "About Firefox" in that icon verified it was 7.0.1 !
    One nice thing about this approach is that the previous version of Firefox is still in the apps folder is still in the apps folder, so it was not replaced and is available if it ever is preferred.
    Thanks cor-el for your help !

  • ITunes 11 sees my iPhone 4GS but doesn't show an icon to select it.

    Although iTunes sees my iPhone and automatically syncs, the iPhone does not show up in the left column of iTunes11 in order to select and change the sync settings. I have iOS 6.0.1, MacBook Pro with MacOS 10.6.8, iTunes 11.0.1. I've tried all the remedies in the troubleshooting assistant except reinstalling iTunes. Phone works fine. iTunes works fine except for this problem. From scanning the discussions, this seems like a frequent problem lbut I have not found a solution. If this is a known defect in iTunes 11, is it possible to go back to iTunes 10?

    I wish you had mentioned that a bit earlier.
    Any third party add on's for iTunes installed? If yes, disable them.
    Got to Disk Utility's and perform a permissions repair on the system drive.
    Don't bother about upcoming warnings, you can safely ignore them.

  • HT4539 Downloaded movie from iTunes in iPad but doesn't show up

    I tried purchasing a movie from ITunes on my computer first and it wouldn't finish so then I tried downloading it directly from the IPad and it doesn't show up at all. Am I missing something?

    I haven't seen this or read about it here, but this is what I'd try, in order:
    (I am assuming you activated the ipad, right? If not, do that first.)
    1) Press and Hold the Home and Wake Sleep buttons until the Apple Logo appears.
    2) If that doesn't work, try a reset, To reset go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset.
    3) Reinstall itunes on the computer.

    When I download a movie I bought on my iPad onto my iPhone it downloads completely but doesn't show up in my videos, what is going wrong?

    Hi adtsalmon,
    You can only watch the movie on the device you rented it on. Here's a snippet from the Apple Support site (italics mine):
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
    Here's the link to the Movie Rentals FAQs site FYI:

    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • HT4539 Why I can download from iCloud on 1 iPod but not the other. It says downloaded but doesn't show up in music...

    I can download from iCloud to one iPod but not the other.  It says downloaded but doesn't show up in music...

    I'm not sure what you mean by the "music library" - are you looking in the Music app?  Or the iTunes app (which is not the one to be looking in)?

  • TS1424 ITune download continues to process but doesn't complete. What could be the issue

    ITune download continues to process but doesn't complete. What could be the issue

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • I am wanting to activate iTunes Match on my iPad. But I get a message saying I have to wait 90 days

    I am wanting to activate iTunes Match on my iPad. But I get a message saying I have to wait 90 days. Side note: I'm doing this for my mom and not knowing, she created a second Apple ID a while ago. I'm trying to get her ID's sorted out. Anyway, I am wanted to know if there's a work around for this. I know it's a safeguard created so people cannot endlessly log in and out of others accounts and share there music and stuff. So, any help?

    There is no work around, you must wait the 90 days (or however long is remaining) before associating the device with another Apple ID.
    Keep in mind that if you log into your mother's iPad with your iTunes Store Apple ID she will then be using that Apple ID for everything including purchases. Any apps purchsed with her Apple ID can not longer be updated on the device.

  • Extras notes --- iPod works fine in iTunes, but doesn't show up in Windows

    Hi all!
    Gotta wierd situation.
    My iPod works fine in iTunes.
    I have had 'Enable for Disk Use' enabled for a long time. However, my iPod doesn't show up under My Computer on WinXP.
    I'd like to add some new Notes and remove some old ones, but you have to do that thru Windows, not thru iTunes.
    Any ideas how to fix this problem?

    hi marky!
    i noticed one thing. the iPod is formated as FAT32, but i have my HD in NTFS. could this be related?
    no, that one's normal. we need to leave her as FAT32. see:
    iPod no longer plays music after formatting or partitioning the hard disk
    hmmmmm. it's like the "enable disk use" setting is just refusing to stick for you.
    but maybe we've got a window of oppportunity while it's doing that initial sync. the rules seem to be different for you then.
    maybe try switching enable disk use off. then eject her, and plug her back in again (while you've got itunes already running).
    the second she shows up in the itunes sourcelist, try diving into the preferences tab, and re-enabling disk use.
    (i checked, and it's possible for me to do this with attractive beast ... hoping here that doing the "enable disk use" under these circumstances might get it to stick for you.)
    love, b
