All of my music is unchecked in iTunes, how do I check it?

Recently for some unknown reason I received a pop-up message from iTunes which read:
I have tried everything within my "Limited" knowledge, Reinstalled iTunes both v. 11.0.2 & 11.0.3 respectively, I've moved the library back and forth from several options 118Gb in size. I am very frustrated (venting) sorry. I wish someone would help me resolve this problem. If this is an easy task for you maybe you can help with a 2nd issue, what is the easiest way to remove "Duplicates" while keeping the correct ones from your library. I have duplicates in iTunes that don't necessarily show up in the library. Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Hold the CTRL key while you click any one of the empty check-boxes.

    Have you checked to see if the media files are still on the computer? See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash.

  • If My external hard drive went bad can I use iCloud to still have or access all my ripped music and movies from iTunes without starting over?

    Can I have access to all my imported music and movies in iTunes even though my external hard drive went bad with the acutal files, if i purchase iCloud through iTunes.

    You say "ripped" music.  That is not stored on iCloud unless you subscribe to Match.  As for iTunes Store purchases:
    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.
    Of course if you had a backup of your files you would have been back up adn running iTunes by the time you read all this.

  • How do i transfer all my iphone music to a new itunes library on a new pc so i can then share it with other devices

    how do i transfer all my iphone music to a new itunes library on a new pc so i can then share it with other devices

    Copy the entire iTunes folder from your old computer to your new one using one of the methods discussed here: iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer.  If you no longer have the old computer and you have to transfer it from your phone, you will have to purchase and use third-party software to extract the music from your phone, such as Touch Copy  or CopyTrans.

  • I need to find out how to transfer all the music from my old IPOD to my new IPOD.  Not all of my music was purchased on ITUNES.

    I need to find out how to transfer all my music from my original IPOD nano to my new IPOD nano.   I want to keep both and not all of my music was purchased on ITUNES.  Please help!

    Your music should be in your iTunes library, that is how it gets synced to the iPod. If that music is not present in the iTunes library, you will need to get a 3rd party software for the computer to get the music off the original iPod and then move it to the iTunes library to be able to sync it to the new iPod. You can see some additional information in this tip supplied by a fellow user. Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • I cant access any of the content that was in my music library that was set up on my old destroyed laptop. so Home Share cant be used.  Is there a way to pull all of the music content, not just iTune purchased music from my 4th Gen Nano back into iTuunes?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    The music sync is one - way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.

    Resync it from your iTunes library.  Music is not included in your backup.

  • HT1751 This was extremely helpful, however, all the songs I had unchecked in my library are now checked on on my new MacBook.  My playlists are all there, but I do I really need to uncheck the ~3,000 - 4,000 songs I had previously unchecked?

    My original library exists on my old computer, so I could still transfer it.   Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated - thank you!

    This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • How to i transfer playlists from my iPod to iTunes? They are all on my iPhone but not on iTunes how do i get them on there?

    How to i transfer playlists from my iPhone to iTunes? They are all on my iPhone but not on iTunes how do i get them on there?

    iTunes will only transfer purchases back to your computer using the iTunes > File > Transfer purchases from XXX's iPhone.  It will not transfer playlists or non-purchased songs.
    Here is an application that will transfer playlists and non-purchases (from iTunes) songs.  There is a free demo limited to 1,000 songs or you can buy the full featured version for $18.99.  http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/

  • Is there a way to delete ALL of my music off of my iTunes/computer EXCEPT for the music that's on my iPod touch?

    I have old music that I have deleted from my iPod that I no longer wish to have on there, but it reappeared in my iTunes.
    All of the music on my iPod I want to keep, and one other CD I've gotten since then. Is there any way to delete everything (for good, this time) except for what's already on my iPod (and another CD, too, if possible?)

    I sounds like you restored the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.  In iTunes on yur computer go to iTunes Preferences. click on he Ddvices tab.  If the date of the backup file indicate that it it has the history you can restore from that backup.

  • I have just downloaded all of my music into the new itune's however all of my music has an "!" buy it and I get an error saying "original file can not be found". How do I get my music back?

    I have just downloaded all of my music into the new itues, however; all of my music has an "!" but it and I get an error that says " original file can not be found".
    How do I get my music back?

    Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
    Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
    But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
    If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
    I can't  download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
    You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
    If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again.

  • All of my music is gone from itunes and backup will not work. Help!

    I opened my computer yesterday and everything was fine, except for itunes.. all of my music was gone. There's nothing in my music folders and my back up CDs aren't working!! Help!!!

    Well there is malware going around that turns Windows users files invisible.
    Your burned cd's are likely just fine, thats write protected media so malware can't do anything to that, but it can disable your cd drive or do something to Windows to make your files not appear.
    So if your capable you can boot off a "recovery cd" access those invisible files on the boot drive or recover them directly off the boot drive using software that read's the 1's and 0's of the files themselves (not what Windows says as it won't be running) and transfer them to a external drive.
    Windows will then have to be reinstalled to remove the malware completely.
    Your backup cd's are safe I'm pretty sure. Good thing you backed up.
    So until you get your  Windows fixed, there really isn't anything we can do for you.
    Good Luck

  • I lost all my music i bought on itunes how do i get it all back is there a way itunes keeps a record please help me?????

    Can someone help me find my music i bought on itunes. I lost it all. Does itunes have a backup somewhere. i deleted it all. do they keep records of bought music.

    Yeah, but if I bought a CD I wouldn't have to pay 30 cents extra to have the complete use of any tune on the CD would I?  ten songs on a CD means you pay an extra $3.00 for the CD that you didn't agree to but its held for ransom.
    What? No idea what this has to do with anything (or even what it means)...
    So if you wanna be FAIR itunes isn't fair.
    Don't purchase from iTunes if you think it is unfair. There are many other places to purchase music.

    You make a backup even if you have no other equipment or an iPod.

  • All boxes are unchecked...how do I check all boxes without doing it 1 by 1?

    I left my ipod to sync and when I came back my ipod had nothing on it...all was erased and in itunes all boxes beside each song in music folder were unchecked. How do I check all of the boxes again so that I can just uncheck the few I wish to have unchecked for syncing purposes?

    ctrl+click in one of the boxes, or you can do select all.
