Books not showing up in iTunes HomeSharing.

I have an odd problem. I am sharing my iTunes library from my iMac on the local network (ran through an Airport Extreme). On my girlfriend's MacBook Pro, the iTunes library shows up nicely, and shows/plays Music, Films, Podcasts etc... EXCEPT... Books.
That is to say, the Books category is showing up in the list of the Shared Library on the MacBook Pro, but it is empty, while I have a dozens of books and PDF's in that library. As mentioned, Musics, Films and everything else that is supposed to be shared shows up as it should, and plays.
Both Macs are running OS X 10.6.8 and the latest version of iTunes, 10.4.
Naturally, Books are ticked in the Sharing tab of the Preference tab of the iMac iTunes library.
I can't for the life of me figure this one out. Any thoughts anyone?

I am having the exact same issue, but running my shared media folder on a Mac Pro Lion Server. On that computer everything works fine. Neither our Lion iMac nor brand new MacBook Air see any books in the shared iTunes Media folder. They see and can access everything else. Books are a mix of epubs and pdfs. Prior to tonight's 10.4.1 update, the books list was at least visible on my older MacBook Pro running 10.6.8. Now that has stopped working. Installing 104.1 did nothing to fix books not showing up in the shared library on the Lion Macs.

Anyone know how to remove Overdrive books from my iphone that have been transferred from my computer? They do not show up on itunes. I see a lot of answers to this question but they all are based on being able to see the books in iTunes.

How do I remove Overdrive books from the library that were downloaded onto my computer then transferred to my iphone? The problem is that they do not show up in iTunes.
I see this question asked a lot when I google, but they always give answers that assumes you can find the books in iTunes either under the books tab, or the audio books tab or in the music. They do not show up anywhere for me. They do not remove from the app like the ones I downloaded directly onto my iphone.the related archived article does not answer it either. I even asked a guy working at an apple store and he could not help either. Anybody...?
Thanks!

there is an app called daisydisk on mac app store which will help you see exactly where the memory is focused and consumed try using that app and see which folders are using more memory

HT1349 I have podcasts on my iphone that are not showing up in iTunes. I can't get the delete arrow on the phone and can't delete from iTunes. Any ideas?

I would like to delete a number of podcasts from my iPhone. They do not show up in iTunes and when I pull the arrow on the phone it does not give me a delete option. I am using a Windows 7 PC. Recently I had to restore my computer, when I first reconnected my iPhone I thought it might sync it and wipe out everything on my iPhone, but it didn't do that. The only thing that seems messed up is the podcasts. I do have an app called Bookmark that I use to listen to books and podcasts. Thanks for any ideas.

My iPad will show up in my computer, but will not show up in iTunes.

I have windows 8 and the latest software of iTunes on my computer. When I plug my iPad in, it shows up in my computer, but it will not show up in iTunes. I have tried everything besides resetting my iPad from the troubleshoot guide on the apple website. My mom just got an iPad mini for christmas and iTunes will not recognize her iPad either. I don't know what else to do.

Tap the Videos app and tap the movies button at the top of the page.
The iTunes app on your iPad is just a conduit to the iTunes Store. To play your purchases, use the iPod app or the Videos app.

HT1459 Just bought a new ipod shuffle for my kid and cannot set it up because it does not show up in itunes. Also the charging light does not light up. what could be wrong, as i am able to see both my iphone and ipad on itunes on the same pc?

Just bought a new 4th gen iPod Shuffle for my kid. Problem is I cannot do the initial set up, as the device does not show up on iTunes on my PC. Also the charging does not light up. Any ideas on what could be wrong, as I am able to see both my iphone and iPad on iTunes using the same PC?

I also tried manually underlining a few things on the new iPad and when highlighting a paragraph, it would skip a few lines and the line would go through a few as well. Looks like a major iBooks glitch needs to be addressed here.

Synching i5s to new PC with iTunes; i5s playlists do not show up in iTunes

I am trying to synch my i5s to iTunes on a new PC running Windows 7 and after synching, the existing playlists on my i5s do not show up in iTunes. All the songs are there but not the playlists. How can I fix this?

Thank you. You were right. They all ended up being there and I copied them to the new computer and used the restore option etc. But now I have a new problem.
Even though all the 7000-odd songs show up in my iTunes library, for every single one if I want to play them, it tells me it can't find their location (with the little exclamation mark). What should I do?

My library will not show up in Itunes after moving library

I moved my library folder from my C drive (my primary drive) to my D drive because I was running out of space on my C drive. I did this through My Computer and not through iTunes. Then, my library does not show up in iTunes.
I moved the folder back to my C drive and everything, but to no avail. I read the tutorial on the Apple website called "Moving your iTunes folder," and I read the first 1,000 or so posts and nothing really solved my problem. There were other posts that were sort of related, but my case differs in that I moved the folder back to the same place it was before and nothing showed up.
This happened before, and I was able to fix it. I thought I did the same thing again, but apparently not, since it's still not showing up. I tried every imaginable thing. I looked at under preferences, advanced, and then made sure the iTunes music folder was the same as the one I had my files in. Still, nothing is showing up. I know where my files are and everything, but iTunes acts like no files were even imported.
I have tried importing songs into iTunes, but it doesn't show up on iTunes, so that rules out importing my files again.
Please help me. I really am at a loss of what to do. Thanks so much!
Yours, Al

hey.
finally somebody with the same problem! i bought a new external drive because i was running out of space and backed up my entire library. then my computer crashed and i wanted to take advantage of a clean drive and not add my whole library back onto my computer. i'd love to be able to access my music folder on the external and have that show up as my library on iTunes when connected...
i followed all the steps as closely as possible and am pretty confident that my advanced preferences in iTunes are correct, but the library does not show these songs from the external drive. have you had any feedback or figured it out on your own?! i hope so, i'm at a deadend.
