Itunes track disappeared

before i bought an album i had one song off the album as a single on my itunes. once id bought the album the track off the album i had already as asingle had disappeared. but the single had stayed. does anyone know how to get the track back on the album please?

Problem solved: The tracks need to be sorted by the first column (track numbers), otherwise the "join tracks" option disappear. The option disappears even if the tracks are in the right order, if the sort uses another column. I would call this "lousy design".
1. The option should always be in the menu, but shaded when not available.
2. If the track joined are in the right order, the option should be available, not matter what column is used for sorting

  • Tracks Disappearing

    I know, I know, I should check past topics for an answer but its midnight and I have a bad headache - I'm not in the mood
    Anyway, I doubt its just my iTouch, but whenever I've bought songs on it in the past year, they just...disappear from it after a few days. I know, you ought to transfer tracks over to your laptop... thats fair. But, why should it be a necessity? I have a mains adapter for my iTouch, therefore it doesn't connect to my laptop that often at all.
    I think it's poor, that tracks disappear if they're not transferred. It's incredibly unfair, and a waste of my money. This has happened with almost every track I've purchased on my iTouch. I don't think it's right that they just disappear off the iTouch altogether, if not transferred. I never read anything that said I ought to transfer it onto my computer before x amount of time had gone by.
    OR, is this just my iTouch? I got a £15 gift voucher from my parents for iTunes, and I'd like to be able to buy tracks over it easily rather than booting my laptop in order to do so.
    It'd be great, if you could re-download any purchase you've made, if for instance, you accidentally delete the track. Or if you switch computers and the guy down the repair store has sold the parts of your old one and you can't grab the files :P
    So, is there any reason for this, and is there anything I can do to stop it?
    Thank-you for your time.

  • Dear Apple – Please help me restoring my purched iTunes tracks on my ned laptop

    Dear Apple – Please help me restoring my purched iTunes tracks on my ned laptop.
    I've bougt some new songs and they just disappeared from my computer and my iphone. How do I get them back? Please help! I'm from Denmark - I don't know if that make any difference!?

    You are not addressing anyone working for Apple here. We are all just users such as yourself.
    Regretably, the iTunes in the Cloud service is not available for music in Denmark:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085. You will not be able to re-download any music purchases. You'll need to restore from your local backup.

  • How do I use the Services menu to convert text to an iTunes track?

    I'm trying to convert text to an iTunes track using the Services option on the Firefox drop down menu, but having trouble with it. I have set my preferences to turn on that option, but all that happens is I get a spinning wheel at the top of my screen, and it doesn't record. I can't see anything in the iTunes settings that I need to change, but wondering if that could be the problem? Any help would be appreciated.

  • My App store and itunes has disappeared from my iphone

    My app store and itunes apps have disappeared from my iphone.
    I suspect Apple is responsible and is trying to force an upgrade. Does anyone know if this is true? because if it is we should object to this.
    The upgrade on my ipad was such a horrible experience, I don't want to do it to upgrade my iphone. (Upgrades have been a nightmare every since the itunes interface was changed. In my view, iTunes is the now one of the most unintuitive interface imaginable - [bar windows 8]. Prior to that it was generally easy to do upgrades and backups without hiccups and the interface was great. Now its too obscure to find what you need to do.)
    I have been an Apple fan since the original Apple computer - but am not very happy with recent changes that affect use-ability and reliability.
    General grumbling aside - every time you upgrade, you have to reload all of your apps; and a lot of favorite apps won't work with the new system. That's another reason I don't want to upgrade.
    Without the App and iTunes application - you can't selectively update the apps you want to update or even access your music.
    Questions:
    1. Does anyone know why the Apps and iTunes apps disappeared? (I'm not the only one complaining about this.)
    2. Does anyone know how to get them back without having to effectively erase your phone and start over?
    3. Does anyone know how to get iTunes on the computer to recognize your iiphone when the itunes app disappeared off it?
    Thank you.

    Hi Dahveed,
    Thank you again for the advice. But, rebooting did not help.
    In the end I was forced to upgrade.
    I am relieved to say that this upgrade went very smoothly compared to other upgrades.
    I did not have to re-download apps and they appear to be in their normal folders - except a new app page 2 (after the primary page) appeared containing only the missing apps. This was not there before.
    Answer to the disappearing Apple App Store and iTunes Dilemma:
    The answer to this problem unfortunately appears to be to upgrade the system.
    In my experience the Apps (which presumably are removed to force the user into an upgrade) then re-appear.
    On the positive side, at least on this occasion, it did not turn out to be a nightmare make work project.

  • When I downloaded the newest version of iTunes, my previously downloaded music in iTunes library disappeared on my computer?  There was no warning of this happening.  What do I do?

    Ok, so I downloaded the newest version of iTunes on my home PC, and the previously downloaded music in my iTunes library disappeared on my computer.  What happened?  I can sync my iPod but I am not sure how long ago I synced it so I may be missing some music downloads.  Why did this happen, and more importantly, why didn't iTunes warn me it could happen and advise me to sync with another device before the download?  I am not very happy about this and it's a huge issue for iTunes if this is happening.  It makes me very wary of iTunes.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps then you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • I am unable to delete music from my iPhone5 either directly or via PC.  On the iPhone the tracks disappear but the phone remains full and the data is still visible on the PC.  I am unable to manipulate the data in any way on the PC.

    I am unable to delete music from my iPhone5 either directly or via PC.  On the iPhone the tracks disappear when swiping left and deleting but the phone remains full and the data is still visible on the PC. The music was installed on the phone from the backup of a previous model but with the addition of new tracks I am now unable to add more or update to the next operating system as the phone is full.  On my PC the music is still there and but the neither the delete function or any form of sorting/management on the music files is functional. Other Apple products work OK including previous phone, ipad.ipods etc Any advice/help available to get past this would be appreciated.

    I think it is 7.1.1 - there was another update today which I've uploaded but it didn't make any difference. It's just the music libary on the 5 that's causing me problems.

  • ITunes Track CPR doesnt seem to be working

    I have been trying to use the track cpr script to find some "lost" songs that arent really lost... the script doesnt seem to be doing much of anything when I run it.... this is on 10.6.4 with itunes 9.2.1
    Results:
    iTunes Track CPR
    Total tracks: 18
    Total MIAs: 8
    Recovered: 0
    Still MIA: 0
    I know the files are are in the proper itunes style folder structure... im stumped why this isnt working. maybe my itunes version is too new??

    have you tried toggling the hold switch...if that doesn't work, restor ipod nano (plug in nano, got to ipod updater, click restore [i may have the first otwo steps switched, so if is doesn't work, try with step 2 first])...if that doesn't work either, go to an apple store (if there is one near you)to get it replaced...if you don't live near one, send it in to apple (since so many people have problems that apple doesn't identify when they send it in, put a small note in the package

    After updating to iOS 8.0.2 the App Store and iTunes have disappeared, is anyone else having this problem? Help please!

    Well, if they have truly disappeared then something is really messed up. For really messed up stuff, you need to set it to factory default condition, and then afterwards, restore it from your backup.

  • ITunes background disappeared!

    I'm not sure what happened here, but the background for iTunes has disappeared. I can still see the songs and menu, more or less, but I'm seeing my desktop (or whatever window I have open) in the background. This is a pain, because I can't drag and drop anything to or manage my iPod. Not to mention, it looks terrible. When it's running in minimized mode it's literally invisible.
    Does anyone have an idea of what I can do? I've uninstalled and reinstalled and nothing works.

    (sorry to butt in Jose.)
    the first thing i check on with a "transparent" iTunes like this on a Windows 2000 box is an out of date version of DirectX. (when folks get this on XP, it typically tends to be a broken DirectX, which is somewhat more difficult to deal with.)
    so check to see if your DirectX is up to date. here's the relevant Microsoft download page:

  • Exporting iTunes tracks as MP3

    This is a similar query to that in thread 1015795, and is very simple:
    Can I copy a track I've bought from the iTunes store to MP3 format?
    Why do I want to do this? Because I've got a MP3 player I want to play it on, and I will not spend 3 figures on an iPod because I don't fancy being mugged either by Apple or some jerk on the street who sees me using it. I'm using iTunes for Windows at the mo, and it won't allow me to convert any iTunes tracks to MP3.
    If the answer to the question is yes, then I'd be grateful if someone could let me know, and copy the message to [email protected] If the answer is no, then I'll never buy another iTunes track. TIA.
    Fred
    PS: I've always liked Macs as technically-superior and user-friendly machines and currently have a Macbook, but I've always hated Apple's proprietary instincts, and I've a feeling that this whole iTunes thing is a way to force punters into buying iPods, which in truth are little more than fancy flash drives with DACs and a mini-jack and certainly not worth £150 ;-\

    Ok, thanks for that reply - I'd not realised that the DRM was so inflexible. Luckily I've only bought a few iTunes tracks and I suppose I can burn them to CD to listen to on my fixed kit at home and work, but it's a pain not being able to put them onto a portable MP3 player. I'll make sure not to buy any more tracks in the future - I prefer CDs anyway.
    When it comes to record companies, DRM, and copying, the phrase "******* in the wind" always comes to mind...
    Cheers
