Apple TV no longer appearing in ITunes PLUS apple TV icon has disappeared from preferences tab in ITunes

Help, please help.
Itunes 10.5.0.142 loaded. There doesnt seem to have been a software upgrade for Apple TV

No, I don't have Netbarrier X. Ironically, I uninstalled Intego Virus Barrier X6 thinking that might be the problem but it isn't. There's currently no software firewall running on the system at all. The one thing I've been able to discern, so far, is that my partner's Macbook can connect and sync to the ATV and the only difference is that she didn't download the latest security patch (2010-001) that came out on Tuesday and I did. I've let Apple Support know but their response was "we haven't heard anything about this". However, since that is the only significant difference between our two machines and hers can connect at this point I'm presuming that's the issue.

Home sharing / Apple TV icon has disappeared from all my apple devices

Two days ago I could go to my shared MacBook through the Apple TV or Throw up a video or music onto the TV from my iPhone or iPad. Last two days... No icon on any device, no home sharing info on the TV, despite every combination of reset and restore. There haven't been any upgrades or even changes to network. Help please?

Is the ATV and iPad connected to the same network?
Have both devices and the router been restarted?

The airplay icon has disappeared from my desk top. It was there two weeks ago, so I can't watch movies I've downloaded from iTunes and flick them over to my TV.

The airplay icon has disappeared from my MAC desktop. It was there two weeks ago when I successfully used it to 'flick a movie i had purchased from iTunes over to my tv. Also, if I rent the movie through iTunes, why (because of the above issue) when I go to 'Purchased' it doesn't display as an option when actually using Apple TV, it doesn't display but when I go to rent it again a message comes up saying "you have already rented this movie, do you want to rent it again"? Frustrated!!

Ok Fellas, let me give you a clue: Games, particularly those that make heavy use of graphics and sound are notoriously power hungry. In fact, when I was in the Navy many years ago, the folks working on the NTDS (Navy Tactical Data System) computers used a version of Space Invaders to load test the AN/UYK-43 computers.
I have also noticed that all of my laptops (I have a brand new Toshiba dual core, an older Toshiba single core, plus 2 Dell dual core machines) have significantly shorter battery life when I play Company of Heroes than when I am just reading e-mail or surfing the 'Net. I have also noticed the same behavior when I play games on my 4th gen Touch and my iPhone 4.
The fact is, iOS 5 did make some major improvements as well as adding some nice functionality like iMessage, wireless synch, and such, but the down side is that depending on how you use the device battery life can be shorter that what you may have experienced with pervious versions of iOS. Its just the nature of the beast...
We now return you to our regularly scheduled programming.....

The buy icon has disappeared from my itunes store. How can I purchase songs??

The buy icon has disappeared from my itunes store...how can I purchase songs??

The Youtube app was removed by Apple in iOS6. You can use either the iPhone app from Youtube (free in the app store, but you've got to set it at 2x), or go to www.youtube.com in a Safari web browser. You can also add the web page to your Home Screen using the share feature. It will then operate just like an app.

My itunes icon has disappeared from my dock on my MAC.

My itunes icon has diusappeared from the dock on my MAC.

It's fairly easy to accidentally pull an icon out, but you can just as easily put any icon you like back into the dock. In the Finder, go to Applications. There, find iTunes, and drag its icon into the Dock.

Itunes store Icon has disappeared from my iTouch

I have previously used the iTunes store icon on my iTouch to access the store and download music. The icon is no longer there so I cant access the store. How can I get the icon back to start downloading again?

Check your restrictions. You probably have them set.
Or the icon is on another home page.

Airtunes icon has disappeared from iTunes since latest OS X update (10.6.7)

I don't see the icon for choosing my Airport Express speakers anymore. I just updated to OS X 10.6.7 and iTunes 10.2.1 and it's gone!
I tried to download iTunes again from a direct link - not via Software Update - but it didn't help. (I didn't uninstall the old version though because the app Clean My Mac warned against it)
Anyone had this problem and found a solution?
Thanks

I see it but when I switch to it nothing happens - music keeps coming out of the computer.

Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer appears in iTunes 10.

Hi there, my Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer appears in itunes 10.
I have looked at as many of the forums as I can and I have followed all the advice to reset Apple TV, router and PC. No joy. I have then restored Apple TV, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, checked router ports etc. but still no joy.
The Apple TV is connected to my network just fine (I can download movie trailers etc.), my PC is connected to the network just fine (itunes store opens and I can shop). However, the Apple TV does not appear in the devices list on the LHS of the itunes window, there is no Apple TV tab in preferences and I cannot locate my library (not listed) on the Apple TV.
Basically I have tried everything I can find to try to solve this, but no joy. Please can someone help me as this is driving me crazy?

If you've reset AppleTv, have you actually set up the sync/share computer again?
If not go to Settings>Computers and add a new library - a 5 digit code will appear for you to enter in itunes.
The top computer entry in the list syncs and streams, the others only stream. If you plan to purchase anything make sure you have an entry for sync/stream as streaming only libraries may not transfer AppletV purchases.

Question: ipod no longer appears in itunes and my computer.

iPod Nano no longer appears in iTunes or in my computer. Songs are there but the device is not recognized

Okay. I was going to say....
What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?
How to reset iPod
Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

IPOD no longer appears in Itunes

My Ipod is no longer appearing in Itunes. Everything was working fine last week, then all of sudden, I am no longer able to see my Ipod in Itunes.
The Ipod is running the latest firmware. It was updated with the latest Updater. Itunes is the latest version.
Unplugging, replugging does not work.
The Ipod battery is 100 % charged.
The ipod does not even appear in My Computer.
The Ipod works fine with existing songs that are downloaded on it.
The Ipod was working fine last week on the same computer. For the longest time, it was not working. Last week it worked. This week it no longer works. What is going on here?
Why would the ipod all of a sudden stop working with Itunes on my computer?
Cheers,
Dilip Patel

A USB flash drive was added to my computer.
okay, let's check on this possibility then (there's also a link to it in one of the articles that Mr Bond referenced):
Windows confuses iPod with network drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
what i'm thinking here is that it is possible that you've usually got a drive letter confusion. (so your PC doesn't recognise the ipod). but when that drive was added, it changed around the drive letter assignments. so you stopped having the drive letter confusion with the ipod (and you could recognise it again). when it was taken back off the system, the drive letter assignments changed again. so you went back to having the drive letter confusion problem with the ipod.

Some, but not all, podcasts existing on the iPod no longer appear in iTunes. Different podcasts have been affected at different times, after changes in the state of the iPod. Only podcasts are affected.

I have not seen this precise issue addressed anywhere. I don’t know if it’s an iTunes or an iPod problem:
- Some, but not all, podcasts existing on the iPod no longer appear in iTunes;
this, after normal behavior for more than a year since purchase of the iPod.
- Different podcasts have been affected at different times, after changes in the state of the iPod.
- Only podcasts are affected.
- This concerns an iPod nano 6th gen. and iTunes 11.0.2 (26) on System 10.6.8
- The only change to iTunes, the Mac, or the iPod is that just before this condition began
I’d begun syncing an iPhone via iTunes.
I sync manually (“manually manage music and videos”). The first time this happened, I wanted to delete seventeen podcast episodes (all belonging to one podcast) existing on the iPod — but they didn’t show up in iTunes. I tried re-downloading them and re-syncing, to see if the new versions would somehow “re-link” to iTunes. They didn’t. Only one — new — episode appeared in iTunes.
I ultimately reset the iPod and manually resynced all the podcasts I currently had on iTunes. That worked, though I had to painstakingly add in all the other content deleted by the reset.
So: after that reset and manual sync, all podcasts and episodes on the iPod were visible to iTunes and I was able to delete the podcast and its — now 18 — episodes I’d wanted to get rid of to begin with. But the next time I connected the iPod, only 8 podcast episodes out of 21 episodes total existing on the iPod were visible to iTunes. These are different podcasts; I’d deleted the original “invisible” ones.
By “visible,” I mean in the “Podcasts” list view under “[name]’s iPod” in the iTunes sidebar. If I select “[name]’s” iPod in the iTunes sidebar and the “Podcasts” tab, all podcasts and episodes are visible, though greyed out because I’m set to sync manually. It’s unclear to me if these are the podcasts on the iPod or those currently in iTunes, as they are currently the same. If I switch to syncing automatically, all content on the iPod will be lost again, so I’m not up to trying it at the moment.
As I said, this involves only podcasts. All other content on the iPod does appear in iTunes.

I have the same problem- i see my movies in the ipod section in itunes and they even show as mpeg4 in the 'kind' section but they dont have that small TV icon next to them. if i play these in itunes, they play fine- but try playing them on the ipod and all you hear is the sound and no picture. All videos that i manually transfer work fine in the beginning- its when i hook up the ipod to the comp again and start itunes- they start showing up without the 'tv' icon!! i have to again transfer them from the itunes library to activate them as videos.

My iPhone 4 no longer appears in iTunes. But it does charge. Tried most tips please help someone!

Hi there,
No I didn't. Someone suggested in another thread that my iPod was registering as a disk instead of a device, so if I removed my iPod as a disk on Disk Utility then it would reload etc. and show up in iTunes. Which it didn't, and instead just cleared all my music (16,000 songs).
So frustrating.
Hope if you have the same problem you are able to find a better solution!
