Where is my "Add to Library" option?

It's not under File >> Add to Library where the help files say it should be.
Help!

I think you're right Limnos because it's there now!
Would it be ok if you had a look at my other question since you seem to know what you are talking about and it's the one I really want an answer to?
I posted it August 10 at 1:55am.
Thanks in advance!
Cheers

Unable to sync my movies in the i tunes 11 library i try to add the mp4 video by using the add to library option but the movie does not sync while the music is syncing fine...

i am unable to sync my movies in the i tunes 11 library i try to add the mp4 video by using the add to library option but the movie does not sync while the music is syncing fine...

I had the same issue. What I did was save the movies on a thrid-party app like Download Manager Lite. Once downloaded, go back to itunes, go to your iDevice, go to apps and transfer the app, then scroll down and click on the app and from there you can send the movies to that app and WILL play. Can only hold up to 8 videos/movies (this is for iPod Touch 3G or better, iPhone 3s or better, iPad requires iOS 4.3 or better)
YES THIS APP SUPPORTS .mp4
From other ipod (nano, classic): I don't remember.
If your just putting them on iTunes, it should show and play on iTunes no problem.

HT4913 Where is the "Add this computer" option?

All I get when I click "Turn on iTunes Match" is the choice of subscribing or not. I am getting really frustrated with the lack of help Apple is giving me on their website. I would appreciate the help.

From the Menu bar select Store>Sign in. Sign in with the Apple ID you used to sign up for iTunes Match. Once signed in, select "Turn on iTunes Match". Let me know.

Drag & Drop artwork & Add to Library not working

Hi all,
This is only a recent problem, using the latest version of iTunes on my Dell XP PC and I'm upable to drag and drop from Windows Explorer into iTunes. I can add music and artwork into iTunes using the 'Add to Library' option but when I try to drag & drop into iTunes, I get a black circle with a diagonal line through it.
Drag & drop from windows explorer to say my desktop works fine. Any thoughts?

Hi Limnos (your reply has now appeared it must have been a time delay!)
I've tried this and it has now readded all the old mp3 & M4a files but is not adding the new AIFF files any more.
I then tried using apple encoder to covert the files and import as M4a but that doesn't work either.
It's like it doesn't like any of my new folders.
I've tried applying the 'share'/'permissions' to all subfolders of my music folder where the music is stored but this didn't work either.
Any other suggestions v welcome as I'm running out of ideas

Need help in adding a folder library (on external hard drive) to ITunes. Older versions had "add folder to library" option...

I have an external hard drive that has a huge music library that I wish to make my Library in ITunes. I have already set the location of the library to the hard drive folder (under Preferences/Advanced). In the older versions of ITunes there was an "add folder to library" option. After selecting that option, ITunes would then take a long time to analyze the songs in the new folder and I could then transfer songs to my IPad. The new ITunes has an "Add File to Library". I selected *.* to include all artists and songs in the library, but ITunes does not begin to analyze the songs and artists in the hard drive.
How do you get Itunes to recognize the songs and artists in the new song directory?.

As long as you don't have an existing library that is synced with a device or holds oodles of carefully crafted playlists, ratings etc. then...
Hold down shift as you start iTunes. You should get an option to choose or create a library. Click create, browse to root of the external drive and click save so that your library is say X:\iTunes where X: is the letter of your external drive. All new content downloaded to the library will stay on the external drive.
See this user tip for a backup strategy.

Under Site Contents - Where is the add a Page or Web Part Page option.

It seems the only way to add a page to a site is to create a document library first.

Where is the SitePages Document Library.
Up next to SkyDrive I click Sites. I select "My Child Site" It is a brand new site. Under the Cog there is Shared With, Edit Page, Add an app, view site contents and getting started. On the left I have Home, Site contents. If I go into Site contents I have
the option of Lists, Libraries and other Apps or the option to create a new subsite.
Just to be sure I clicked Create a new Subsite". Once it is up I still don't have an option to create a page. And under the Cog I have the same settings as before.
It seems like I have to create a document library app, create a page in the library, Add the app as a web part to the home page and then have a lot of clutter from the document library app. e.g. +new document or drag files here, current view... As opposed to
a list of links to the pages.
It seems like a site should also be a document library or list to begin with.
I could swear in 2010 when you were in a new site you could could click create a page from the home page.

iTunes for Mac has never had an "Add folder to library" option. This is only available on Windows version.
Select Add to library, select the folder then click OK.
Or drag the folder(s) to the iTunes library at top left of iTunes.

In iTunes 11 uncheck the preferences setting in in the iTunes Preferences panel "Advanced > Copy Files to iTunes Media folder when adding to Library"

Where has 'consolidate library' option gone?

I have just purchased a huge external drive to (finally!) store all my music on. I have set the path for a new media folder on it in advanced preferences, but when I go to where the 'consolidate' option used to be - file, library, consolidate library - I now get 'back up to disc' or 'organize library' or 'export library' options instead.
I simply want to copy all my music (and some is on other external drives) to the new external drive, and iTunes 9 seems to have lost that option! Help!

I was confused at first too...why change the name? Does organize make more sense than consolidate? Whatever...just make it work!

Where are Excel Add-in options saved ?

Hi,
Please, could anyone tell me where are Excel Add-in options saved for each worksheet ?
In the Excel file ? Registry ? File system ?
Regards

I think Sean might be right about the last value, but they are also stored with the woorkbook as a named range. If you go to insert->name->define you should see a series of named ranfes starting with ess, I don't have excel opened in from of me, but I think one of them is essoptions. It has a string of numbersand strings following it. Each position reflects one of the options. it looks something like A2100000000010101000001100020_0000

HT1473 I got my MAC PRO installed with iOS lion and since then i'm unable to add music on my iTunes and i tried adding to library option but still it copies and at the end it stays empty, doesn't even open new songs on it. any suggestions ?

hey,
I've rebooted my mac before installing new ios lion, so after everything was done i copied my data back to my mac book pro, then simple clicked on adding to library option in itune and it only synced half of the track and rest simply didnt copy, i thought maybe some error occured and i tryed the same procedure again but its not adding more tracks in it. and i just notice when ever i try play a new song through my data it does not open in itune these are the same tracks and songs i been listening to since ages on different note books and pods..
Help me i've tryed everything but nathing seems to be working. and my itune is uptodated =S

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Where is the iTunes 'Books' library? Want to add pdf to iBook app

I have been looking for over an hour... there is nothing on my computer screen for iTunes that says 'Books' - I want to bring a pdf book into iBooks. How can I do this. Previously answered questions on this say to drag the pdf to the 'Books' library which would be fine if it existed. Off to the left of my screen I see only "Movies, Music, TV Shows and Apps" then Store and then Purchased and then my iPad which is plugged in.
Can someone help me solve this issue I have every time I want to add a book to iTunes to the iBook app on my iPad, I have already gone to File > Add to Library and it acts like something happened but there is no PDF book showing up in iBooks or my Adobe Acrobat app. What am I doing wrong?
TIA,
Ken

I found the app and put it on the dock and added the pdf but in iTunes it wants me to do a dangerous action, removing all music tones,,, and a long list of other things, like books that don't show up in this new iBook app on my Mac, I don't want to risk losing all of my PDF books and other books that are now on my iPad. Things get sticky and I've already lost tons of stuff by upgrading to Maverick in the first place. I think the warning message was enough motivation for me to forget about iBook and use another more friendly app like iAnnotate to bring in PDF files. Whew, well at least I know that there are apps out there that can be more friendly than the Apple apps., like I've abandoned 'Notes' and am now using Evernote which keeps backups in the cloud which updates to all of my divices. Thanks sberman, you did lead me to the correct answer on this. I'm just not going to chance losing everything.

Itunes 11 "add to library" not working (drag and drop too)

I just updated to itunes 11 and the add to library function is not working both manually and drag and drop. I used to be able to add a video to the itunes media file, click add to library, click the file and it would pull it in to itunes. None of this works including the drag and drop feature. The preferences folder is set correctly.....please help.

It appears movies added to iTunes manually (not purchased through iTunes), are automatically put in the "Home Movie" media kind/category. I don't remember this kind in previous iTunes, but maybe it's just not one I used. I've seen where this is due to using MetaX, but I don't think so as "Home Movie" is not an option in MetaX. I cannot find any option in iTunes preferences to change this. Maybe Apple will change this in an update - I hope so. For now, I just go in and manually change this in the movie Info setting. I keep all of my movies in digital format, so this is a bit of a pain.

Newbie: iTunes "Add To Library" function

Hi. I'm new to Automataor, so be gentle!
I have my iTunes Music Folder in a Shared folded so that all users on my Mac can access the files. The problem is that if User A adds a new song, User B cannot see it until then do File > Add to Library against the shared music folder to pick up any new tunes. (note: this is different than the iTunes "import" function). I would like to automate this process to run once a week or so.
I don't see where Automator can perform the Add to Libray function. Is this possible?
Thanks.

I think you can. I have an automator action like this -
1. Finder - look for music files in my folder on desktop.
2. Add these files to library/playlist.
First add the finder action and then you should probably be able to see add to libary option. I don't exactly remember, But I will go home and check.

Where is my "Add to Library" option?
