Button or Tab for Movies and Music Disappeared

In iTunes, when I tap Apple TV, the only buttons or tabs that comes up are Summary and Photos.
No button or tab for Music or Movies appears.
Thus, I cannot sync either music or movies.
My Apple TV software is up to date as is my iTunes.
Suggestions?

you have your appletv connected to itunes as a sharing connection only (ie not sync options).
you need to remove the link to itunes and set it up again, this time as a primary library.

  • K1 - Google Android Market Missing Tabs for Movies and Music

    Am I missing something or does the Android Market on the K1 not offer Movies and Music? I have tabs for Apps and Books, but there is no way to rent movies nor buy songs through the market. As a work-around, I can go to market.android.com and rent movies and buy music, but for some reason it's not available within the Market App. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?
    Just so you know, I have a new K1, I've run all the system updates, and I'm not rooted.
    Thanks in advance.

    That explains the versioning of the Android Market app on K1. I thought it was odd that it was 1.0.28... whereas Google support always refer to version to Android Market version 3.3+.
    I've been looking for the latest Market to get the PIN/parental controls. On a side-note/rant -- With the existing Android Market, my younger one has already made some in-app purchase charges playing with a game from GAMEVIL (BTW for K1 owners DO NOT DOWNLOAD GAMEVIL games ie AirPenguin if you have young ones. Their games make it easy to purchase items and they were not refunding it.  Apparently I'm not alone if you look at the 1 start reviews. I've already lost $$$ which I'm trying to get back... In the meantime I advise anyone with Google Wallet accounts to remove their Credit Card)
    Lenovo, please put an updated version of Android Market in your next update!!

  • When is the itunes store for movies and music coming to Egypt !!!!!!!

    when will apple allow us in Egypt to start using itunes the way it should be used as for now there is only the apps and podcasts and itunesu when will the music and movies and proper books be available to use and why has it taken them so long to do so
    i would like to hear from anyone who have a date or a reason why until now we can't use itunes

    We are fellow users on here, until if/when Apple announce something nobody on here will know. Before Apple can sell content in a particular country they need the content providers to grant them a license to do so - why it hasn't so far happened I don't know.

  • Do I need to always have a keyboard and monitor connected to use as a home share device for movies and music?

    I have two MacBook airs and two Apple tv's. I want to set up a Mac mini and rip over 800 dvd's and 600cd's to it then use the apple tv's to veiw the movies and play songs. Just in my house not streaming over the net. I am looking at the Mac mini server with the 2 1 TB drives. I know I don't need the server but it is the drives I'm looking at. I want to set up the mini and then remove the key board and monitor.
    Does this sound right? Any better ideas?

    I'm running a mini with no monitor, and have had no problems.  I use Screen Sharing when I need to get into it, and for those rare occasions when I can't reach it via SS, I have a monitor that i'll pull out of storage to get everything back in working order.
    How are the two 1 TB drives configured?  If they're mirroring, then you may need more capacity if you're going to rip 800 DVDs. And while we're on the subject of drives, I can't tell from your comment if you're going to buy a Thunderbolt drive, but you should be able to get away with something much cheaper (and slower) like a USB2.0 drive.

  • I just updated itunes and a LOT of my movies and music disappeared. These are movies and music I owned already and did not purchase from iTunes. How do I find them or do I need to add them all again? Also what happened to the sidebar?

    I just updated my iTunes software and have a lot of problems...
    1. The sidebar option is gone. I LIKED the sidebar and it was easier for me to navigate that way.
    2. Also no lists? I hate the icon way to view it. It makes my eyes go wonky and I have a harder time actually looking for what I want.
    3. A LOT of my music and movies have disappeared. These are music and movies I owned that I did NOT purchase from iTunes so I can not re-download them.
    How do I find the missing files? Do I have to readd them into iTunes? Is there a way I am not seeing to put thew sidebar back or make the files be viewed in list form? Can I undo this update to put it back the way it was. I hate this update...

    See my answere to your post in the Mt. Lion forum.

  • Two locations for movies and music

    Has anyone ever split their library for music and movies? I want to keep my music on the hard drive and place my movies on an external hard drive. Any way of doing this?

  • Best Mac Computer for Movies and Music

    Hi, I am about to go into college as a music major and I am interested in buying a mac! I was wondering what would be the best Mac computer to buy to have the best music listening, creating, and mixing experience I could have. I am also interested in film. Is there a Mac that focuses just on certain creating aspects?

    Hi Superman,
    If you are going to college, you should check to see if your school has a computer deal with Apple. Some times you can get a pretty decent discount. If I were you, I'd lean towards the new MacBook Pro. Most up to date computer in the Apple laptop line, and as powerful as the G5 towers, just not as "upgradeable" (memory maxs out at 2 gigs I think). Garageband is a great program, but Logic Pro is 1000 times better (and has the learning curve to prove it). iMovie is a great video editing app for trters, but Final Cut Pro is the way to go on that end. External hard drives (at least 72900rpms) can improve your performance using any of these apps. In short, newest computer, maxed out RAM, external FW drive, and the best apps you can afford.
    Have fun Superman!

  • Bought a new iPad 2 and iTunes only includes Movies and Music tabs at the bottom of the screen, ie no TV Shows. If I search on the Store, say for Homeland I get albums, podcasts, etc everything but the actual TV show. Can anyone help.

  • I have an external server that stores all my movies and music, is there a way to stream it to my apple tv? If not is there a way I can link the folders to itunes (without downloading files to computer) and will that make them view-able for the apple TV?

    If none of that works is there a way to get it working alternativly?
    Additional Information:
    Everything is linked via ethernet cable.
    I'm using a PC to set it up.
    If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I'll help where I can.
    Thank you for any help

    (I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!)   I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

  • I have a first generation apple tv synced to a itunes library on an external USB drive. Movies and Music Won't Play

    Here's my setup. First Generation Apple TV. G4 Powermac running OS X 10.5.8 iTunes 10 with the Library stored on an External 3 Terabyte USB 2 drive. It's plugged into a PCI USB 2 card. Everything worked fine till I transferred my iTunes library to the external USB drive. Things seem to sync up fine. I have it set to copy TV shows to the Apple TV's internal drive and that seems to work but when I try to play music or movies that are streaming from the library, I get an error. With movies I get the "The selected video cannot be played. The format was not recognized." error. The movie and music list seems up to date but now it won't play. Did I waste my money on this external drive? How do I get this setup to work?

    I don't think this will be a complete answer to your question, but may point you in the right direction.
    I have a similar setup (same OS X and iTunes versions), but my library is on a network attached 2TB harddrive (vs a USB 2 drive). Mine works fine, both syncing (which you don't have a problem with) and streaming. It's possible that iTunes doesn't like the USB 2 drive, but I don't know. Are you able to watch TV shows on your PowerMac after having moved the files to the USB drive? If you can watch content on your laptop but not on your AppleTV, it suggests the Apple TV doesn't like the USB drive.
    Perhaps you didn't transfer iTunes library content correctly. (Forgive me if I'm telling you things you already know.) The iTunes library consists of a list of content and it's location (local harddrive, network drive, etc.). If you simply moved the files, but didn't actually update the library with the new locations, this can explain why you can't stream the content. The Apple TV displays what is in the library, but cannot play it if the library entry is pointing to the wrong location. Note: This "library update" I'm referring to is not the same as simply changing the iTunes media folder location in iTunes > Preferences > Advanced.
    When I moved my content to an external drive, I had to delete everything in my iTunes Library, then re-import everything (File > Add to library). Don't let the phrase "delete everything in my iTunes library" freak you out. Deleting entries in the library is not the same as deleting the files (which you definitely do NOT want to do).
    If you select an item in your iTunes library and press the Delete button, it asks for confirmation thus:
    Are you sure you want to delete the selected TV show from your iTunes library?
    It's OK to answer "Delete TV Show". It will then ask you if you want to delete the file. Do NOT delete the file. You can select your entire library and delete everything at once, just make sure you do NOT delete the files when it asks. When that is done, make sure the iTunes Media Folder Location is set to where you want and that the files are there. Then, go to File, Add to Library and re-import everything. It will take several minutes to more than an hour, depending on the speed of your computer and the size of your library.
    I have had to do this everytime I've moved my library to different storage devices. If there is a simpler way, I am not aware of it.
    I hope this helps.

  • Movies and music vanished from iPhone 3Gs

    Hello! I discovered today that mysteriously, all of my movies and music vanished from my iPhone 3Gs. I have not recently synced my phone or updated the software. My iMac is currently on a FedEx truck being shipped out west for a month long vacation so syncing is not an option. Also, when I try to download new stuff from iTunes, the phone tells me there's not enough space when there is plenty since all my music and movies are gone. I called Apple and essentially, I was told that they couldn't help me at this time. Has anyone else had this happen? It's incredibly frustrating as I was planning to watch movies on the plane

    Apparently, data or metadata is corrupted on your phone.  Assuming that your phone was never jailbroken or hacked, the solution is to restore in iTunes using your most recent good backup, but without your computer that's not an option.  Simply syncing with it probably won't work for the same reason you can't download, and risks replacing a previous good backup with corrupted data.
    You can try resetting, but I'm not optimistic - press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears.

  • Relocating Movie and Music directory to ext. USB drive

    I would like to move my "movies" and "music" directory to a different external drive.
    By default Tiger (10.4.4) has a user directory, and inside there are the folder I'd like to relocate.
    Reason being is that iWork/iLife/iApps only read the users home directory for those folders. i.e. importing a photo to "Keynote" will only allow you to use the media panel. So I have to go the insert other file route. I'd like to use the "media" payne to view the files, but I'd like the files to be located on my external USB drive so I can take them with me on my limited hard drive space powerbook
    Is there an app that will allow me to tweak the home directory file folder locations so that the iapps will still work? Yes, I know i can get teh files into the iwork/ilife apps but it's a few steps to do it, plus I can't really browse the files themselves.
    I know in "ahem... windows xp" it can be done to move the location of the "My documents" directory, but can it be done in Tiger 10.4.4?

    For music, you can store your files on a different HD and just change the Music Folder location setting in iTunes to the new location. {iTunes>Preferences>Advanced>General tab}
    The library database files can then remain on your main HD while the media files are someplace else.
    Just copy the whole iTunes Music folder to the external drive then change the location setting.
    For movies making an alias may be the easiest way to go about it... Move your Movies folder to the new drive and then create an alias to it an place the alias in your home folder and rename it to Movies.

    My movies and music videos won't show up on my computer screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this? I'm not sure what to do as far as turning my purchased movie into DVD goes either. I just want to put the movie onto a DVD disc but my itunes won't even show that I have a blank disc in the drive, I'm not sure what is wrong or how to fix this, any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hi @anthony7722 ,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
    I grasp that you uninstalled the Intel graphic driver and the catalyst control.  You reinstalled the Intel driver and now you can view and hear videos on the Internet but you are unable to set the resolution as high as previously.
    When I checked the specifications for your notebook I see that you have switchable graphics.
    Here are two links that I believe will help.
    Overview of Switchable Graphics or Dual GPUs
    Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs
    Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv7-6150eb Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
    Please try this process.
    1. Download the chipset driver, and both graphic drivers and save them  but do not install them yet
    2, Delete the chipset driver and install the updated one.
    3. restart your notebook
    4.Delete the Intel driver and install the updated one
    5. restart your notebook
    6. Delete the AMD driver and install the updated driver. 
    You should now have a Catalyst Control Center.
    This should now allow you to use the higher graphic card which should support the higher resolution.
    I hope this helped.
