Apple TV music sync option missing

I have been having some iTunes issues and therefore did a rebuild. I have reconnected the Apple TV and can not sync any content other than pictures to the Apple TV. The only options given me in the Apple TV tab in iTunes are Summary and Photos.
What is going on?

your TV is currently set up as a +streaming only+ library. i expect that, when you +did a rebuild+, you did not break the link to the old iTunes.
you need to do that from within the TV's settings, then pair it with the new iTunes. the following reads will be helpful: one and two.

  • ITunes 9 - Apple TV music sync still playlist only

    I'm disappointed to see that Apple TV didn't inherit the improved music syncing options for Genre & Artist. It can't be hardware related as it shows up on my older iPod. Hopefully this will be fixed in a 9.1 release.
    It's unfortunate that Apple continues to treat the Apple TV as a 'hobby'.

  • Settings -- Calender -- Sync Option Missing | old appointments "lost"

    I have a problem with my iPhone 4. In the past it was possible to adjust the time old appointments are "kept" in the calender. Unfortunately, I had to reset my iPhone and now (iOS 4.3.5) the option "Settings --> Calender --> Sync" in which I can adjust if and when my iPhone drops old appointments seem to be gone.
    Does anyone know where Apple moved that option? I really need access to my old appointments.
    Best wishes,
    Marco

    Hi the same problem happened to me.  If your have Icloud on your computer you can sign in and when you click  oto your claendar they should still be there.  Then plug in your Iphon with the usb cable and go to general, settingins then go into icloud and scroll down to storage and backup and click on that.  it should restore what is on your computer.
    hope it works for you

  • IPod Classic (6G 160GB) loses music sync settings in iTunes (10.5.2)

    I have a 160 GB iPod Classic 6G that has been giving me some trouble over the last few months. Everytime I would try to sync it with iTunes (10.5.2), it would lock up and I would have to perform a hard reset to allow it to reboot and sync with the computer. This has been an annoyance, but a workaround.
    A few weeks ago, I gave up on this lousy workaround and restored the iPod and synced my media. Note that all the media is on the same machine (iMac 24, Mac OS X (10.7)) and that the iPod is not being shared between two differnt computers. When I connect the iPod at the end of the day to get new podcasts, I notice that the Music Sync option in iTunes is no longer selected. If I select it, iTunes reports that the music on the iPod will be replaced with music from this computer, the same computer to which it has been synching all along. Selecting this button and starting over does not solve the problem as the button is unselected the next time it is connected and restoring the iPod does not solve the problem.
    Anybody else have this problem and resolved it successfully?
    Thanks for your time and consideration.

    hey  henke,
    I , too , was wondering why the most important service that I was waiting for , was not available.... the check box for "music" does not appear.
    It turns out that this service is ONLY available to users that have an AMERICAN iTunes account....
    sadly , apple dons't say that and in the web site it seems that this sync service for music is availale for all.
    I guess amd hope it will come to Europe soon. i myself have a German account in itunes

  • Seems a very nice music-sync feature has been dropped (Touch 8GB, 3rd gen)

    Hi,
    I don't know whether this has been brought up before (searched various sections of the support forums but did not find any reference to it) but if so, please excuse me.
    Before upgrading my touch to iOS4 and/or updating to the latest versions of iTunes (I don't know which of those two updates can be accounted for this missing feature, that's why I mention both) there was a nice music sync option via which you could define the amount of disk space to fill up with music (you could also select f.e. that you preferred higher rated music to be selected) which would randomly fill your touch up to the limit specified with a random list of music.
    It seems this functionality is dropped (at least I couldn't find it anymore) for my iPod Touch. It was a feature I really loved. All I am left with now is to either select "entire music library" or "selected artist, playlist or genre". Selecting the first won't work as my iTunes library is ten times bigger than what would fit on the iPod, the second option does not really randomize the music list but always makes a selection out of the playlists I have. Next to that I completely lost the possibility to define the maximum amount of memory to reserve for music.
    Am I so stupid that I overlooked this feature completely or has this really been dropped? If so does anybody know why it has been left out in the latest iTunes versions?
    Rgds,

    i liked this feature too
    i used to have it on my mp3 player too.
    :O)

  • My Iphone 5, was backed up and restored.  Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option.  Can anyone help please?

    My IPhone 5, was backed up and restored.  Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option.  I have reinstalled ITunes but still this hasn't worked.  Can anyone help please?

    This problem started last year when ios 8 was released. I think apple is trying to force users to buy music on iTunes store and that's why it's impossible to sync other music and also that's the reason why they haven't solved this serious problem. That's really disappoints me and i'm angry with apple because i have like 10 gb of music in mp3 and i can't sync music from iTunes to my iPhone.

  • Exporting slideshows results in file with only the first picture then a blank white screen with music. Apple bug or am I missing the obvious?

    When I export slideshows the result is a file with only the first picture then a blank white screen with music. Apple bug or am I missing the obvious?

    Usually when the phone shows just the white Apple logo, it indicates an issue with the system software that prevents the phone from finishing it's boot sequence. When this happens, you will need to restore the phone, which removes all data and replaces the system software with a fresh set.
    Since the phone is not seen in iTunes when it's in this state, you will have to put it into DFU mode for iTunes to see it.
    To put the phone in DFU mode:
    - make sure the phone is connected to a computer with the current version of iTunes on it.
    - hold the sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously for 8 seconds.
    - let go of the sleep/wake button and continue pressing the home button. The iTunes screen will show a short progress bar then show a dialog box stating that an iPod was detected that is in recovery mode.
    -click OK
    -click the Restore button in the middle of the iTunes page
    After the restore the phone should be back up and running and you can sync your data back.

  • Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

  • I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano,  but when I click on the Music tab at the top, it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc.  I cannot un-check the Entire Music library option and check the Selected Artist - on

    I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano,  but when I click on the Music tab at the top,
    it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc.  I cannot un-check the Entire Music library
    option and check the Selected Artist … one.
    I have changed the Sync option to Manually sync, but that does not help.
    How can I change this to the second option?
    Thanks.

    There is a checkbox above those two options for how to sync.  It says Sync Music; it enables automatic syncing.  That box needs to be checked before you can select from the two options for how automatic syncing is performed.
    NOTE:  If the iPod is current set up to Manually manage music [and videos], checking that Sync Music box replaces its current content with content from your iTunes library, based on how automatic syncing is set up on that screen.
    So, if your goal is to add ONE playlist to an iPod that is managed manually, you do not want to do this because iTunes will erase the iPod's current content and replace it with just that ONE selected playlist (and whatever else you select on that Music settings screen).
    Instead, if the iPod currently uses the manual setting, you need to add playlists manually to the iPod (not use the automatic syncing setting).  Please post back with more details about your situation.

  • Hi, I recently got an iPad air. Singed in for new registration with cc details as I had no other option I already own an iPhone and also my husband owns one. Both have same Apple ID to sync with iCloud But after registering for iPad all free are charging

    Hi, I recently got an iPad air. Singed in for new registration with cc details as I had no other option
    I already own an iPhone and also my husband owns one. Both have same Apple ID to sync with iCloud
    But after registering for iPad all my free apps are asking me to purchase those free apps. I have no idea what went
    Wrong, please help.

    You created the same Apple ID with the setup assistant on the new iPad Air - the same Apple ID used for the iTunes and App Store on your iPhone?
    There is no charge for a free app regardless.

  • Wifi Music Sync missing from my Mac Desktop Manager

    I have Mac Desktop Manager v2.0.4 which, according to everything I have read online, should have the Wifi music sync feature under Device options:Media tab. Yet, mine simply doesn't have it.
    Any thoughts about why this could be happening?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    I have the same question too.

  • More Apple Gobbledegook.  Cannot update my phone as message comes through "updating to iOS 7.0.4 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone.  Please change your media sync options to make more storage available"  What media sync options?  Where

    More Apple Gobbledegook.
    Cannot update my phone as message comes through "updating to iOS 7.0.4 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone.  Please change your media sync options to make more storage available"
    What media sync options?  Where are they ? How do I change them?

    Afraid, this doesnt help.  I've already unselected about 100 iTunes, resynced, and I still get the same message about 610 MB needing to be deleted.
    What is so magic about 610 MB as a number?
    Is this anything to do with iCloud? I was on the free 20 MB offeruntil last month and then got downgraded to 5 because I could n't see the need for paying for extra Cloud space.   Is this the reason why?

  • Missing Exchange account in mail sync options

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to Snow Leopard, so I could access my Exchange accounts on my MacBook and iPhone 3G. I have successfully synced Mail w/Exchange. I can access my work mail, calendars, and notes on my MacBook. However, the Exchange mail account will not sync with my iPhone. It doesn't even show up in the list of mail accounts to sync in iTunes. Oddly enough, the calendar, notes, and contacts do sync and do appear in the syncing options. The only problem is actual mail account.
    iPhone OS 3.1.3
    Any help will be useful.
    Thanks

    If your Exchange account is not available below email accounts under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, you can manually create the account with the iPhone's Mail client. Select Add Account at Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars followed by selecting Microsoft Exchange and follow the prompts.
    When syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with an Exchange account or with a MobileMe account on an iPhone, you can also sync contacts and calendar events direct with a supported application on your computer via the iTunes sync process, but in this case the contacts and calendar events will be duplicated on your iPhone when doing so.

  • Photos Not Syncing; Photos Missing From Albums, No Error Message, Running iTunes for Windows & iOS 7.1.2

    I am having an issue with syncing my photos on my iOS devices running iOS 7.1.2, the two being an iPhone 4s and iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G.
    When I sync photos, I keep on having photos turn up missing from entire albums. I have tried everything I can to resolve this issue from the support article titled <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3697">iTunes: Unable to sync photos</a>, and nothing has successfully worked in any kind of permanent form. I have even gone so far as to sync albums individually with a limit of around 400-500 total photos per sync, (give or take), and tried using what very little options I have on the photos tab for my devices in iTunes to essentially trick the devices to sync the missing photos. Despite this, iTunes still fails to sync newly added photos from the source location.
    I have even made the attempt of re-installing iOS 7 on both devices, and restoring from backup. Again with no avail.
    My best guess for my iPhone is that as it is a 16 GB, not all of 15.6 GB of photos will sync to the device, (go figure), but that doesn't explain why recent photos aren't added OR why my iPad 2 of 64 GB has missing photos.
    As of this post, I have an estimated 38,940 files, spread across 1,703 folders, (a large amount of folders being in some of the folders; from my knowledge never being more than two folders in). They are all in one dedicated folder on a hard drive I've dedicated to iTunes and music related files, (for the sake of AVOIDING this kind of nonsense, I might add).
    As for the system OS and iTunes, I am running Windows 7 64 bit, and I am using iTunes 11.2.2.3, but will have updated to iTunes 11.3 by the time anyone responds.

    I have the exact same problem.
    Same kind of photos/videos taken with the same camera randomly sync.
    Did 11.3 fix this issue?
    Sincerely
