Brand new macbook pro - iTunes does not recognize multiple speakers, my older macs work correctly
New macbook pro with iTunes 10.5.2. OS 10.7.2 Setting up iTunes.
Two speakers on Airport devices.
Switch at bottom right shows all of the speakers above the line, and "multiple speakers" below the line. The two speakers on the airport devices are #3 and #4 on the list above the line. (i.e. ITunes is aware that these airport speakers exist).
I can click on single airport speakers above the line, and ITunes connects.
When I click on "multiple speakers", I get "computer" and the first listing which is a printer hooked up on an airport express link. Also get the separate volume controls etc. The third and fourth entries on the list (i.e. the airport speakers) are not displayed on the multiple speakers list.
So I can connect to one speaker at a time, e.g. the computer, or any other speaker, but I cannot connect to multiple speakers.
I have two other macs and have never had this problem with hooking up to the multiple speakers.
Thanks for any help.
Same here - the problem is - it was working for a few days after I've upgraded iTunes to version 10, and then yesterday - I've rent the movie from Apple Store and once downloaded with iTunes - I wanted to transfer it to my ATV - however - my link to ATV suddently disappeared. What a piece of Crap. I can't describe my frustration - apple products aren't cheap and they always come with some kind of problem - what the **** is going on - it's not just the design people are looking for but also functional products.
Yesterday I've tried to turn of ATV, remove link from iTunes, start ATV make new connection to iTunes, start up iTunes - ATV shows up, code put in and at this stage I thought it finally works - but hey - forget it - I'm trying to put the purchased rental onto ATV and I get an alert saying that my firewall (which I have none) is stopping me from syncing. I then go to the support page which explains how to deal with it - but on some very old version of the system - my system (Snow Leopard) doesn't have those options any more. So as far I I'm concerned I'm screwed unless they fix the problem with their software.
If you guys know of any possible solution to this problem (and I did read many forum topics already - none of which works) - then please let me know.

I have an iPod Nano generation six, and since I had to get a new hard drive on my Macbook pro, the nano no longer registers in iTunes. My other devices show up fine. I have followed all the trouble shooting advice,and nothing works.

I messed up badly by trying to restore my brand new macbook pro by doing restart then command R and choose disc utility repair now when I start ,all I get is the white screen with a folder and a question mark,What can I do???help please
Can you still boot to the Recovery partition using Command and R whilst booting? Or did you wipe the Recovery partition as well?
If your Recovery partition is still intact, you can simply boot to it and reinstall the OS via the Internet. If you wiped the Recovery partition, you can hold down Command, option and R keys whilst booting and boot into true Internet Recovery mode. You'll be able to reformat the hard drive, erasing all partitions (format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a dingle GUID partition) and then reinstall the OS that shipped with your machine.
Note that you should use a physical Ethernet connection when restoring over the Internet - it's three times slower if you use wifi.
Try your Recovery partition first and if that doesn't work, use Internet Recovery.

My brand new MacBook Pro retina display not charging the battery any more after 3 weeks...no green or red Led. Any one now about this problem? Thanks
Either the power brick is damaged, or the charging circuit is on the blink, or both. Either way, a trip to the Apple Store or the Apple Authorized Service Provider is in order, as this ain't no bargain basement toy.
In the meantime, can attempt an SMC Reset to see if it helps. -

The new version of iTunes does not recognize my Ipod-prior to this version, had no problem, Ipod showed up as list under the Imac library. Now getting synch must erase setting! Help
well nobody bothered to give me a hint on what to do, maybe because the problems with the new version of iTunes are really a lot, there is an enormous amount of people out there that have all sort of different problems including mine so I have decided to return to the previous version which works fine and wait untill the apple people come up with a decent product ....

I have an iTouch with songs that are on there from my CDs as well as purchased songs from iTunes. Currently my iTouch plays all of my music. When I went to sync my new iPhone4S using my PC (Windows with latest upgrade), it only will sync songs I purchases from iTunes. It appears all of the music on iTunes that I put there from my CDs have an ! next to them, and they will not sync to my new phone. How can I get my iTunes account to recognize my CDs as legal muisc that I can put on my iPhone? I do not want to reload all 1,600 songs from my CD collection.
Songs with an exclamation mark against them are songs that iTunes can't find. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the files, or that the drive the live on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

I have a mid 2009 15" Macbook Pro that does not recognize there is an Airport card installed.
I bought the Macbook Pro secondhand and I'm sure I saw the Airport Icon when I first booted up, but then I did a clean install of 10.8 and since then I can not get Airport turned on again. The machine had damage to the clutch cover so I assumed the Airport card was faulty and replaced it but no joy, I then sourced a new WiFi / Camera cable and plugged that into the motherboard and tried each of the cards and still nothing. I've used Detectnewhardware and edited locations and still nothing. I am assuming that if the card was detected then I'd see the Airport option come up in Network settings but nothing I do triggers that. One thing I noticed is that with both cards and cables when connected in any combination the Airport card gets hot very quickly, which I find strange given it's allegedly not turned on.
Are there other settings that might be making the card invisable to my machine, it's possible this was a Corporate machine in an earlier life so I'm wondering if there's a low level setting that disables WiFi, although I'm sure I saw it come up the first time I used it but maybe my memory is playing triks.
I've also tried a USB WiFi dongle and that doesn't do anything either, but I think that could be a driver issue.
Other than the logic board I can't think of anything else to change, and I don't want to change that, so if anyone has ideas please let me know and put me out of my misery.
Thanks, MarkDoes anyone thing it's possible that installing the OS without the Airport card working has caused the system to completley ignore it even though it may now have a working card and cable, seems unlikely to me but really struggling to know where to look now.

Do I have to reinstall itunes for my computer to recognize the new ipod? What will happen to my music?

What is the exact error message you are receiving?
As to re-installing iTunes, it will have no affect on the content you actually have stored in iTunes such as your music. After you finish re-installing iTunes, everything should be right where you left it in your iTunes library.

MacBook Pro now does not recognize USB card reader
My computer recently stopped recognizing my usb card reader. The usb port works fine with my iphone and ipod. The card reader works when plugged into a windows based machine. The problem is not related to OS 10.6 because I had the issue prior to upgrade. I must of updated something software related that is causing the problem. Anyone have any ideas?
My computer recently stopped recognizing my usb card reader.
We'll need to know exactly what you mean by this. Plug in the reader, without a card in it. Go to Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info and click on USB in the left column of System Profiler. Do you see *Mass Storage Device* listed under one of the USB port entries in the right part of the window? If so, the reader is recognized. If not, it really isn't. In that case, reset the SMC in your MBP:

Windows and iTunes does not recognize
yada, yada...
I tried the Rs, but my new computer and iTunes does not recognize my shuffle. Can someone give me basic steps to correct this? Shuffle was previously 'synched' with another iTunes library and I don't want to erase my currently uploaded music. Help please!I don't know if this is the same problem, but I cannot get my I-pod Nano to sync or have I-tunes recognize it. It is a connector problem, and this is my second Nano to do it within nine months. Apple wants $32 to send it in to be repaired once again. I am irritated beyond belief. I took my Nano in to an IMAC store and they confirmed that it was a connector problem. They could not send it off nor repair or replace it though. So I've had two Nano's since Christmas have this problem.
I would suggest that you try another device (shuffle) on your computer to ensure that it's not your computer (our other I-pods worked on the computer) and/or take it in to an IMAC store where they will see if it connects to one of their computers.
Right now I think Apple products are basically crap... -
