Backing up ITunes Music only not tv shows or videos

I want to back up just my purchased music and NOT the tv shows and videos I purchased. How do I do this?

Thanks Josef!
I followed your suggestion. there was no drop-down for aac protected audio file so I typed it in.
Nothing was is the new playlist when I hit OK.
It seems that the purchases I made from ITunes are not in aac format.
So I just created a new Music Purchases Playlist, and burned IT to a disc.
Thanks for helping me understand how to do this!

  • Video purchased from iTunes Music Store not compatible with my video iPod?

    I purchased the White Stripes music video for "The Hardest Button to Button" from iTunes, but when I plug in my video iPod, it says it can't copy it over because it "can't be played" on my iPod. I don't understand what to do! All the other videos I've purchased from iTunes has copied/played fine...
    Can someone please help me figure out what to do? Is it a bad video and I need to seek a replacement from Apple? I'm using iTunes 6.1, not the newest iPod updater (because of all the problems with it), video iPod, and Windows XP.
    Thanks!

    I need help! I've followed some suggestions from people at the IGN forums, but nothing has worked so far. I'm in the process of waiting on a reply from Apple.
    Please help!

  • HT4913 I have recently purchased a new iPhone, but my husband has the iTunes account on his email. We want to set up separate accounts however we want to share all of our music from iTunes. Is there a way to only share music only (not contacts, apps, etc)

  • How do I get the Itunes Music Library to stop showing and asking me to purchase the songs I have drug in for playlist?

    How do I get the Itunes Music Library to stop showing and asking me to purchase the songs I have drug in for playlist?

    If I make a playlist of my favorite Sax players by dragging there songs from their homepage into my playlist not purchasing them.  Those songs appear along side my regular songs in my overall music library with option to buy them.  The only way to get rid of them in my Music library seems to be to delete the playlist.

  • Switched laptops - music moved - appears in itunes music folder, not itunes

    I used my ipod as a hard drive to move my music from my old windows laptop to the new. The music all shows up in my folder for itunes music but not in my itunes program. What am I doing wrong?

    File -> Add to library...
    then pick the folder with all your music in it.

  • I have multiple devices, I can share itunes music but not my apple apps.

    I have an imac, ipad and three iphone 5s.  I can share my itunes music but not my apps.  All three iphones have separate Apple id's.  Thanks

    Mac OS applications cannot run on iOS (or vice versa). If there is an iOS version of the same app available, use it for your iDevices.

  • I have seen that some of my Itunes music has not gone to the cloud, and I can't seem to refreash this? What should I do?

    I have seen that some of my Itunes music has not gone to the cloud, and I can't seem to refreash this? What should I do?

    First try:
    iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
    Next
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    For other music y will have to get them like you did before

  • Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore. When chose for secret question brth date seems wrong. Can't reach anyone!!!

    Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore and I forgot the password (5 years old??). When chose for secret question birth date seems wrong. Tried everything. I need to make a new apple-id but cannot connect the music that I bought under my old name to my new name. Can't reach anyone!!! Automatic FAQ system is of no help. What to do?

    That doesn't help me. For itunes it brings me to the express lane which doesn't help because my case is not in it. It's all standard procedure things. I understand those but my situation is different. The combination of a passport forgotten and an non-existing email adress (and birth dates that are not correct or not accepted). What I need is my password emailed to another email adress than the original one because that no longer exists.

  • Itunes music store not available in your country yet.

    I just did a clean reinstall of OS 10.3.5, and when I try to access the music store I get
    "itunes music store not available in your country yet.
    You will be able to browse and listen to previews but wont be able to purchase music. To browse music store, select a country below."
    So I select United States and nothing happens.
    I am in the US and have an itunes account.
    The itunes version is 4.2.
    Also, what is the highest itunes version I can use with 10.3.5?
    I am held down to this OS version because of some other software on my mac that won't work with anything higher than 10.3.5.
    thanks
    roger c.

    First, the iTunes Store has required iTunes 6 at minimum for quite a while now. So you're going to have to upgrade from iTunes 4.2. If you want to run iTunes 7, you'll need to get to Mac OS X 10.3.9. Otherwise you can download iTunes 6.0.5 here, but you won't be able to purchase movies or (I believe) videos unless you have iTunes 7. There's also no guarantee how long iTunes 6 will work.
    Second, you've posted in the iTunes for Windows forum. Normally you'll get the quickest and most accurate responses if you post in the iTunes for Mac forum.
    Regards.

  • I got a new iPhone 5 and my itunes music will not sync properly. it will show up on the phone but it is light gray wording and they are not selected only a few songs work. The grayed out music just takes up space. Someone please help.

    My itunes music is grayed out and unplayable on my new iphone 5. only a few songs work and the rest just take up space. They will play correctly in my itunes on the computer but not the phone. Please help.

    I am so relieved to hear that I am not the only one experiencing this! However, I am sorry to hear you are going through this as well. Lucky for me I am upgrading to a 5s which will be sent to me on Wednesday. I did stumble upon an article with tips on how to downgrade back to iOS 7, but I am EXTREMELY apprehensive about doing that myself. Here's the article link if you want to give it a go:

  • My iTunes music is not showing in iTunes

    I just bought a new iMac and wanted to move my iTunes library from my MacBook to my iMac.  I followed the directions in the set up assistant.  I copied the entire iTunes folder (not just media or music) onto an external hard drive.  I then merged that iTunes folder with the one on my new iMac.  When I look in a finder window I can see all of my music in the iTunes/iTunes Media/Music folder.  However, when I open iTunes the only music there is what I have purchased on iTunes.  Why isn't iTunes reading the correct folder?  I have made sure it is directed to the right folder in preferences (see screen shot) but it's still not showing.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Pearljamluvr,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I see that you have transferred your iTunes library to a new computer, and are wondering how to get that content imported into iTunes.  To accomplish this, please see the information and the article outlined below.
    Part 4 (optional): Add back new content
    Copy the iTunes Media folder you created in Part 2 into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder inside the iTunes Media folder you copied in Part 3. iTunes will automatically import the content.

  • Iphone 4S iTunes music purchase not showing in iTunes on Mac

    I purchased a song on my iPhone 4S using the same iTunes account that I use on my MacPro running Lion and the latest version of iTunes.
    The purchased song shows up on my Mac iTunes under "purchased", but it does not show up in Music when I search for the song.
    I did confirm that the song did download to my Mac from the iTunes store automatically. I am an iCloud subscriber and all of my devices have been synched with iCloud.
    Why doesn't it show up in my regular music catalog on my Mac? Any suggestions to fix this are greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Why would files that are in my iTunes Music folder not show up in iTunes?

    Downloaded emusic.com files show up in my iTunes Music folder like usual, but iTunes doesn't seem to detect them. Then, each time I quit iTunes I receive a problem report saying iTunes quit unexpectedly.  Help?

    iTunes is a data base manager and as noted needs a reference.
    If I am adding tunes not purchased from the iTS then I d/l to a folder on my Desk Top then as noted 'Add to Library'.
    I also have the iTunes prefs>Advanced>copy .... option enabled. This way iTunes will copy the tune into iTunes and then you can delete the Desk Top copy.

  • Songs in itunes music folder not showing

    Hello all:
    Songs in user/music/itunes music folder are not showing up in itunes 7.6.1 are not showing in the itunes application. Recently upgraded from previous version. TIA for any advice.

    Maybe I need to expand and clarify a bit.
    In my "user/music/itunes music" folder there are songs located in folders listed by artist/album. Some of these songs show up in the iTunes browser. I'm assuming this is due to my recent migration from my old Powerbook to my new Macbook Pro.
    Any help would be very welcome.
