Music in library, but not showing up under "music"

For some reason, if I click on "Music" I see the screen that you get with a fresh iTunes library, but my music is all still there. How do I fix this screen so I can navigate the music in my library?

Ummm. are you talking about the view settings? They are the four buttons to the right of the apple window that scrolls the titles..

My album artwork is showing up in my itunes library but not in itunes under ipod:music. help

When I'm in itunes my album artwork shows up in my library. But if i'm in itunes under my ipod:music it will not let me sort by Album, only Album by Artist, and absoluetly no artwork is there.help!

Even if you somehow lost the iTunes app and your OS, unless you reformatted the hard drive to restore, your song files (the iTunes data) may still be there. Look in your user home folder Music folder, for a folder called iTunes, and then iTunes Media. If you see that folder, your song files may be in there. If the hard drive was reformatted, obviously, nothing from before will be there.
For your question, iTunes syncing is generally one way, from the computer's iTunes library to the iPod, by design. You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
Once your iPod's song files are on the computer's drive, you can add them to your current empty iTunes library.

Library shortcut not showing up after Connect to Office in SharePoint 2010

I clicked "Connect to Office" in the library ribbon. The shortcut to the site showed up under Favorites in window's explore. But the library is not showing up.
The browser is IE 9, 32 bit.
any idea why the library shortcut not showing?

Hi,
According to your description, after Connect to Office, The shortcut to library is not showing up under SharePoint Sites.
I have met the same issue with you, and I solved the issue by the following:
Delete SharePoint Sites under Favorites in window's explore and go to C:\Users\Your user account, delete the SharePoint Sites folder.
Go to Connect to Office-> Click Manage SharePoint sites-> Delete all the library links.
Go to Connect to Office-> Click add to SharePoint sites again and check the result.
If the shortcut to the site doesn’t show up under Favorites in Windows explore,
go to C:\Users\Your user account, copy the SharePoint Sites folder, paste it into Favorites in Windows explore.

I am trying to download previously purchased music from iTunes, it show "purchased" in iTunes Store but does not show up under previous purchase tab

There are several albums that I've previously purchased that somehow were deleted from my computer & iPad. When I go to download available purchases on PC it say that all available punches have been downloaded. When I check iTunes Store it show as "purchased". When I try to check & download from iCloud via either iPad or PC these items do not show up under items purchased.
I can't even re-purchase the item, which I've tried since it shows as purchased in iTunes Store. This is very troublesome because there is no way for me to access these previous purchases. I have been using iTunes & various Apple products with the iTunes Store for several years & there is a lot of money invested in these previous purchases, that there is no way for me to access. As mentioned, I'd even be willing to re-purchase some of these items (though this should be unnecessary). But, the iTunes Store won't let me, because the items show up as purchased in store, but not on any of my devices!!!
Help!

Hey innerev2003,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If, while searching through your past purchases, items are unavailable to download and show a "Purchased" button, they are still on your computer. It may be best to search your iTunes library by clicking Music, then use the search bar at the top right.
If you are completely sure the items are no longer in your library, try signing out of the iTunes Store, and then back in.

Some songs from my iTunes library do not show in my Finder music folder

Some songs from my iTunes library do not show in my Finder music folder. For example one of the three CD's form a triple album do not show in Finder. And therefore they do not get saved when I back up my Mac either. Any ideas?

Consolidate ("organize") simply looks at everything you have in iTunes and copies them to the iTunes media folder location specified in iTunes prefs -> Advanced. If you select to use the default settings iTunes will copy any files in its library in the correct location in the media folder. Since you don't want the files in a different locaiton really but just want to deal with some stragglers don't do the full "move" in hte instructions below but make sure they are organized.

The files will be copied so you will need to find the originals abd once you are content the library is working you can get rid of them (I often archive them on an external drive, delete the originals, then play the files which is a sure test if you have a workable copy on the computer).

One of my movies I bought shows up on my mac in the itunes library but not on the apple tv.

I own about 30 movies on my apple tv and one of my movies I bought shows up on my mac in the itunes library but not on the apple tv. How do I fix this issue and get it to show up on my apple tv?

Two things to check
1st
Settings
Mail, Contacts, Calendars
AccountsHow many accounts are there?
2nd
From Home screen press Mail app
Press the top left button (next to Inbox)
You'll see all the Inboxes for the accounts present
You'll know either way whether one or more accounts has been setup.
SIDE NOTE: Not too sure about MobileMe though, might be integrated with iCloud, not sure.

I just rented a video on my iPad, but it's not showing up under rented videos. Where do I go?

I just rented a video on my iPad and it's not showing up under rented videos. I have rented videos before. But don't know what to do. Help.

It should be in the Videos app
If not, are your age restrictions set up in the Settings >> General >> .......?
If your restrictions are turned on and you rented a PG18 rated movie or something, it won't show by design.

I recently download a song with my IPOD Touch 4G. The song appears in my iTunes music library but not on my IPOD. I've tried syncing several times, but I cannot get it to transfer to the IPOD. Any suggestions??

I purchased a text tone from Itunes. It shows up in my library, but not as a text tone. Is there a way for me to set it as a text tone for all texts? Or I am stuck with factory settings?

I purchased a text tone from Itunes. It shows up in my library, but not as a text tone. Is there a way for me to set it as a text tone for all texts? Or I am stuck with factory settings?

So it is conseidered a customized text tones even if it was purchased through iTunes? Confusing. Since I bought it through itunes as a text tone I assumed it would work. OOOPS
Thanks so much

When syncing my iTunes to my iPad from the laptop, I get a list of missing songs; they are in the library, but not in the music folder on my HD. In particular, I uploaded 3 CDs at the same time, all are in my library - but two are missing from the folder.

In particular, I uploaded 3 CDs at the same time, all are in my library, and all synced to the iPad - but the music from two of them are missing from the music folder. Questions are (a) where might they have gone? and (b) is there a way of "reverse loading" them back to my hard drive from the iPad? Thanks in advance!

Hi dones49,
It sounds like your issue here is that iTunes can not find the files for some of the songs you have brought into it. This happens occasionally even if the songs have not been moved from the location that iTunes places them on import or purchase. When you try to use the song, iTunes prompts you to find the file, as you have seen.
To find the file, use the information in this article to navigate through the iTunes media folders -
Locate and organize your iTunes files
If you are still unable to locate the files, you may need to download them from the iTunes store again, or rip them from your CDs. See this article for assistance with downloading your past purchases -

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.
