How can we add Apple TV as a "device" in iTunes?
You cannot.
What exactly are you wanting to accomplish?

  • Getting iPhone to sync with new mac (from old PC) and add device to iTunes

    I recently brought a macbook pro 8.1.  I was able to transfer my itunes library using the imatch, however I have not been able to add my iphone into my itunes in able to sync.  I still have to connect with my old PC in order to sync my music (that was imported by CD's).  I have searched through the support options from apple support, but there's only information on how to add a NEW device to the itunes library.  When I have tried sync'ing my phone with my new mac itunes, there's a message that pops up stating I cannot sync 1 device with 2 computer itunes libraries.  What I'm getting at...is there anyway I can move my device from my old PC itunes to my new mac itunes before my PC dies??  HELP!

    I believe we're having the same issue. I posted a question yesterday and I've gotten some helpful answers. I will stay posted to your thread as well to see if your issue is resolved. Sorry that I couldn't be of any help. :-)

  • My ipads and iphone are listed and included in my 5 devices in iTunes.  But it should only be computers (my desktop and laptop).  If I deauthorize them, so that I can add another laptop, how to I keep the music/purchases from itunes on them?

    I would like to add another laptop to my authorized devices in iTunes store.  But it says I have 5 devices already.  4 of these devices are actually iphones, ipads or itouch.  I am afraid to deauthorize them so I can add a laptop.  It will take the music/apps away, won't it?  How do you include an itouch/ipad/iphone in your iTunes account without listing it as an authorized device?  And where is the '10 devices' coming from?  vs. 5?  Very confused
    We need to use the following devices with the same iTunes id:
    2 laptops (soon to be three)
    1 desktop
    2 ipads
    2 iphones
    2 itouches
    Is this possible?
    To make things more complicated, a few of these devices will also use a DIFFERENT apple id for the cloud/mobile me.
    But we all use the same iTUNES id for apps/ music in the family.
    Thanks so much for your help!

    There is no list of authorized computers.  Where do you see a list?
    You must be talking about something other than authorization.  Please clarify.

  • How to add and delete content on device from iTunes

    I cannot find the way to add and delete content on my devices from the new iTunes. I don't understand why they changed the way it worked without any tutorials or hints at how to use the new iTunes app. I can see my device, I can see that music is on there, but I cannot unselect songs or content to get rid of it. Also, my apps do not show up on the apps list, I can see the screens with the apps on them and can delete them from that but the list is not working. I am using Yosemite and iTunes 12.01

    If you select your device in iTunes then on the left-hand side of iTunes you should see a Settings heading with categories below it which you can use to select what to sync from your iTunes library to the device, and below that an On My Device heading with categories below it listing what is on the device.
    For the Apps tab, the listbox of apps on my Mac's iTunes doesn't always populate until I've scrolled up/down the window. If yours doesn't populate then you have your apps downloaded and stored in your Mac's iTunes library - the listbox shows what you have in your computer iTunes library, if your library is empty then the listbox will remain empty.

    Media is synced to the device from iTunes the same way it has worked in every version of iTunes since the introduction of iTunes.
    Read the User's Guide for your device.

    Hello Jaymee1234,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Why isn't my ipod nano showing up as a device in itunes?

    My ipod nano does not show up under devices in itunes;
    therefore, I can't download the Audible.com app.

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • Nano no longer shows up as device in itunes

    My nano no longer shows up as a device in Itunes.  Connection is good as it still charges, but nothing when I plug it in.  Does not show up as device in windows either.

    Until you fix it, make future purchases in itunes direct.
    Are you using a different computer? Mac or Windows?
    Which iTunes version?
    Any security software potentially blocking access to AppleTV from iTunes.
    AppleTV1 as you know has 2 modes - streaming and syncing.  It has to be configured as a sync library for purchases to transfer to itunes and for you to sync to it.  Synced content appears under My Movies etc.  Streaming only content appears under My Shared Movies etc if a sharing libarry is configured.
    You cannot copy purchases back to a shared itunes library only the sync library.  Both sync and share connected AppleTVs however should appear under Devices in itunes.  Can you send a song to AppleTV from itunes using Airplay?  The fact that you can buy on AppleTV means it's connected to the internet - it does not mean that it is connected with iTunes on your LAN - the 2 things are separate.
    If you no longer have a sync library you would need to change exisitng settings which will delete current synced material but apparently (never tested so can't be sure) not non-backed up purchases.
    Under AppleTV's Settings>Computers menu, the top entry is teh sync library - if this is greyed out then either it's no longer available (eg different computer) or AppleTV and itunes are not connected.  If you select it and choose to remove it,you can re-add the AppleTV to itunes afresh - if itunes doesn't see the AppleTV requesting a pairing when you try this either there's a communication/network issue (hardware or software related) or perhaps itunes installation corruption.
    Good luck.

  • TS1363 iphone 5c not displayed as a device in itunes.  Therefore unable to sync this new phone from a backup made yesterday. Any help appreciated.

    Unable to get new iphone 5c recognized as a device in itunes for syncing purposes. Backup from old phone made yesterday and now would like to sync new phone from that backup.  Any advice appreciated.

    Even if I enable the new phone to backup automatically with the cloud? Wouldn't that keep everything up to date? And if I use the software, couldn't I choose to copy just the music & messages to I tunes, and not select anything else to keep the data from the new phone intact? Sorry, this is confusing. I like these products, but Apple really fails on portability. I had this same issue with Ipod years ago, and it ****** me off then too. They sold me (the last time I lost everything) on the icloud, telling me it backed EVERYTHING up. I'm a bit upset at store personnel right now to say the least.
    Sorry I was under the impression you still wanted to restore from your old phone backup.
    yes if you enable backup on your new phone everything will be up to date.
    Yes you can use the software to move music and message to your computer - you would need to add the music back to your iTunes media library.
    I provided a link with what is backup to icloud.  YOur purchased item is always tied to your apple id.

  • When i try to add music from itunes to my ipod itune tells me the music on my ipod came from a differnt libray and  wants to erase my whole ipod. i just loaded my ipod two days ago. i don't want to replace everything every time i want to add to songs

    When i try to add music from itunes to my ipod, Itune tells me the music on my ipod came from a differnt libray and  wants to erase my whole ipod. i just loaded my ipod two days ago. i don't want to replace everything every time i want to add two to songs. My MacBook Pro is the only autherized computer.

    To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place and you will be able to change your settings.

    I've found an easier way, just go to settings>general>usage>music. Then swipe it and press delete, i think this deletes the database described above, then re-sync, this worked for me anyway. Good luck, you need it with Apple software.
    I don't have a large library of music on my iPhone 4s since I've only had it since Oct 2012, but since the update to iTunes 11 in early December, my album artwork has been all messed up.  Everytime I would try to add new music, it would assign the wrong album artwork to anything new coming in.  And in addition to that, it would also mess up album artwork of music already on my phone.  Everything looked correct in iTunes, but on my phone, not so much.  After trying to unsynch, then synching again, my frustration level was at an all-time high. This problem seems to be everywhere online, but no concrete solution for everyone. 
    I finally came across your simple solution (at least for me because of my small inventory of music) of just deleting all the music through the settings, and then re-synching to add back my music.  Now all of the album artwork is correct again.  I'm almost afraid to add new music for fear the artwork will get mixed up all over again! I still think my issue is somehow connected to the iTunes 11 update because up until then I had no issues whatsoever. Anyway, thanks for an easy solution that worked for me.
