Authorized my new laptop but music not showing up??
My new laptop is authorized and is 5 of 5 authorized computers. All others are working fine, but new computer will not display purchased items in library so I can listen on new computer.
I received a reply to the e-mail that I sent. The support person basically just had me redownload the songs.
"My name is xxx here from the iTunes Store. I understand that that you can not see your purchases in your library, I'm sure you're looking forward to resolving this issue, and I'll be happy to help you today.
I was able to post a new copy of the "Order Number Here" to your xxx account, so that you can try downloading it once again. When you are ready, please follow these steps to initiate the download:"
When I restarted iTunes, the songs automatically downloaded again and now show in my "Library". I admit that I was a little annoyed by the following comment by the Apple rep:
"Also for future reference, because Apple does not offer protection for the loss of data from your hard disk, I always recommend that you back up your iTunes library as soon as possible and thereafter on a regular basis."
This was not an issue of me losing the songs. I had the copies of them. They were showing in the "Purchased" playlist and also in my iTunes music folder. The only issue was that they did not show in the "Library".

Authorized new computer but music not appearing
I have my main computer with all the songs and video on it. I just downloaded the same i-tunes version on a new laptop and authorized it successfully, but I still don't see any of my library anywhere.
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer.

Copied ITunes from Old to New Comp. but Files NOT showing up in new Library
SO, I used my IPod to copy my ITunes Library from my work computer to my home computer. Now in my Music folder both of the libraries are there- but when I open ITunes it is still all of my old music... none of the new music is showing up. I can manually "Add Folder to Library" but this seems ******** since the folder is already LIVING in my library... HELP.
Had to drag all folders into my ITunes --- not just the ITunes Music Folder.

I recently bought a new laptop and installed Firefox on it as my default browser. Now when I open Firefox on the new laptop and click on the "Home" icon, I can't access the "customized" homepage that I originally designed when using my old laptop. When I open Firefox on the old laptop and click on the "home" icon, it still brings me to the old, customized homepage. What's going on?
You may need to redo that customization on the new computer. Such a customization is usually stored in a cookie on your computer if it is not stored on the server itself (attached to a user account).

Any help please. I am new to MAC products
There is no need for a serial with the version of Logic Pro downloaded from the App Store...
It uses your Apple ID instead when you purchase it.
Is Logic asking for a serial?
If so, this means you had an earlier version of Logic installed on your laptop at some point or... you restored from a backup of a computer that had Logic installed.
If this is the case then see this thread for info on how to remove the existing serial number..

Moved music to new laptop but not showing up in iTunes....
Hi. I used the instructions for "How to move your your music to a new computer" and it seemed to go smoothly. It appears my music library is on my new computer (Music folder, etc) but is not showing up when I open iTunes (unless my iPod is connected too). I am nut sure if I have missed a step or done something wrong. Any ideas?
Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Quit iTunes. Hold down the shift key and load iTunes again. At the prompt "Choose Library" and navigate to and select your iTunes Library directory.
iTunes will then default to use that library from then on.

I am trying to home share with my new MacBook. The music library I am wishing to share is not displaying anywhere on my new laptop under music or library. My computer is authorized and I have tried restarting itunes, etc. Any help/ideas?
Are you using the same ID for homesharing on all devices.
By the way shared libraries don't show up under either 'Music' or 'Libraries'. -
I have a honda civic with USB port which allows play back of my old iPhone 4 and 4s. With the new iPhone 5 the radio shows the phone is conected but does not show any music content. Any Suggestions?
You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

Hi.. My internet and wifi are working on samsung phone and hp laptop but its not getting connected to iphone ipad, only skype is coming online rest all apps and safari show no internet connection. Got new linksys router WRT160NL , but situation same. Tried reboot, renew lease, forget network, reset network setting. Pls advice
Have you tried a simple reset of your iPod to see if that helps? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, have you tried any of the troubleshooting mentioned in this Apple support document?

I transfered all my music over from my old to my new laptop but my playlists are not there. How do i get my playlists?
You need to transfer the iTunes library, not just the music.
Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to new computer.
Launch iTunes.
This is all you need to do
