Can find AppleTV in iTunes

Help please!
AppleTV is connected to network (can see Movie Trailers and YouTube) and Mac is also connected to the same network (internet is working).
Somehow, can find AppleTV in iTunes.
Can someone please kindly help? Thanks a lot.

I had the same problem. The machine was simple to set up, but not in trying to figure out why it couldn't find my wireless network (Dlink) and then not showing up in iTunes after the wireless found it. So...
1. Apparently the ATV cannot use WEP security. I changed mine to WPA. After a reset on the router, the Apple TV showed up with routing info. At the TV, the ATV showed it could find my wireless and connect. So far so good...
2. Now iTunes couldn't see the Apple TV. It never showed up as simply as the book described it. After a quick look at the preference settings on iTunes, I checked the box under Apple TV to allow iTunes to search for the unit. Nothing. I shut down iTunes, powered down the ATV (hold Play button for 6 seconds) then started everything up again. This time the ATV showed up in iTunes. Then it was a simple matter to sync the two units.
As great as I find Apple's units to be and the software a joy to use, the books are often WEAK in setup instructions. Some difficulty was related to the network, but the book could have been clearer about the WEP information. Just have to think clearly from "there to here" and what can be happening in between. Hope this helps!

TS4242 since updating and restoring my iphone 3gs it no longer can find my sim itunes cant activate it because no sim inserted can anyone help

That usually means the phone was hacked or jailbroken to unlock the phone and when you update the phone it locked back up again.
Only way to resolve this issue, is to find out who the orignal carrier was and have them unlock it. If you bought this from a 3rd party contact the seller and have him/her unlock it for you by contacting the phone carrier.

TS1387 I cannot find the list of my music on itunes when i plug my phone in although i can find my husbands itunes music

Check iTunes for the back up.
Windows: Edit>Preferences>Devices>Device Backups
Mac: iTunes>Preferences>Devices>Device Backups

Why would there be both cyrillic and asian writing in my selection for "artists" when scrolling through my "device" under artists, for my device "music" tab, but not listed anywhere that I can find in my Itunes library? Is there reason for concern?

I was perusing my music selections in my itunes account, clearing out useless stuff I don't listen to, and under "My device," under the "music" tab, in "Artists,"
i happened upon what is an artist's name (or a place holder for an artist's name written in cyrillics. Another artist's name two spaces down from that one is written in some form of japanese/chinese. Is this something I can ascertain what it is on my own, is this something that is common, or is this some sort of thing launched by the bad guys to hack my computer?
I cannot find any correlating artists when attempting to locate these "artists," in my Itunes library. This is some freaky stuff!
HELP!

Possibilities include source files with multiple tags, tags in Reverse Unicode and/or ID3v2.4 format. Select one of the entries so that you can identify which track it belongs to and then investigate back in iTunes. You may want to try using the option Convert ID3 Tags... > None a few times followed by Convert ID3 Tags... > v2.3. This will lose any currently embedded artwork but should mean that the tag data is read consistently by iTunes and any devices.

Can find imovie in Itunes once I have published

Their seems to be a problem publishing the imovie to itunes. I have try several times and each time i look in Itunes it's not found. What I'm I doing wrong????

I'm having the exact same problem. Latest versions of both program. The file makes it to my iMovie iTunes sharing folder, but not to the iTunes Movie folder. I know this has worked in the past, but not sure why it isn't working now.

I can't connect AppleTV to iTunes after updating to Lion

I updated to Lion today, along with all the iTunes/iWork/Java/etc updates that were available on Software Update. Now my AppleTV can't recognize my iTunes library on my computer.
My wifi is on and working fine, my Home Sharing is still set up in iTunes and on AppleTV.
I used to use Little Snitch (which would sometimes cause problems) but I updated it to the latest Lion-friendly version (v 2.4) and it still didn't work, so I uninstalled it (using the provided uninstaller that is included in the download package - not by simply throwing it away).
I've restarted both iTunes as well as the computer (to avoid Resume issues).
So far nothing has worked. Please advise!

I too had the same problem with Apple TV, once I downloaded OS X Lion to my iMac desktop and MacBook Pro. I called Apple TV support and they recommended doing a full reboot of my AT&T Uverse system (TV, Internet, and Phone). Well, after the full reboot, all is well! I can now access my iTunes Library, Netflex, etc. I was also able to restore wireless capability for my HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer even though HP plans to release new drivers for OS X Lion. So then, I highly suggest rebooting your entire home cable system after downloading OS X Lion. Surely there is need for additional patches and new Apple TV software but this immediately cured my problem. Please note too that at Apple Downloads, you will find a Java release for OS X Lion.

When I go to plug in my iPhone 5 to my PC it will charge my phone but it doesn't show up that it's connected to my computer or in iTunes. I have tried just about everything that I can find on the internet but nothing is working. Any other suggestions?

If you have carefully follow ALL of the steps in that article, you are using a USB port directly on your computer and not a USB hub (don't use a front port on a tower or desktop either, as they are an internal hub) and you installed iTunes correctly using an Administrator ID and you have tried disabling your antivirus and firewall then there is no hope of it ever working. Look at the tip again, and go through it carefully, not skipping any steps.
Note, BTW, that an iPhone will not show up on a computer, only in iTunes. If there are photos in the Camera Roll then it will appear in Windows as a digital camera only.

I can't get my itunes playlists to sync now that I had to get new computer. My library is still there and the playlists show and I can even add to my playlists. But as soon as it goes to sync it says it can't find all the songs that used to be there.

I can't get my itunes playlists to sync now that I had to get a new computer. They all appear in my library and show in my playlists. I can even download new songs from the itunes store to those playlists but when it syncs only the new songs go on the ipod. It says it can't find any of my "old" songs and puts an exclamation mark beside them. I am clueless when it comes to these things. Advice please! We have three ipods on this account trying to figure it out.

You can only sync to one computer.
You would have to transfer purchases, but the apple ID would need to be the same.
Or find a 3rd party app to transfer content.

You can't do that. iCloud does function that way.

Is your "home computer" the same as your laptop or are these two different machines?

Well blow me down & keelhaul me! I've solved my own problem. The issue appears to be that Apple won't sync Smart Groups from Address Book to the iPhone. I created a test group with a few dud contacts in Address Book; iTunes sync'ed then OK & as soon as I went into Contacts on iPhone, there suddenly was the Groups button appearing with 2 Groups - my Test Group + all Other contacts. Nice one apple - another undocumented feature! Looks like I have to do away with the Smart Groups feature & convert them all to normal Groups in Address book - bugga!

I activated an iTunes gift card, my iPod showed the amount available ($15) and after downloading 2 songs all I had left was $.04. Any ideas on what happened to my funds or how I can find out where the rest of the money went?

Can't find devices on iTunes

Can't find devices on iTunes libraries, after turning on home sharing ?

Home Sharing only allows you to share your iTunes library from computer-to-computer or from computer-to-iOS devices not from iOS device-to-computer.

I have music on my iPad, but I can no longer find it in itunes on my mac. How do I get those CDs back in my library?

I have music on my iPad, but I can no longer find it in itunes on my mac. How do I get those "CDs" back in my library? I cannot listen to them on my Mac or put them on another device!

Thanks a lot! After I sent the above post, I tried that. It worked a little. Some of the ones that I Purchased would not come up. I followed instructions from Apple about going to Purchased and downloading them again, but ran into another problem. They are greyed on my Mac and they will not download again. It says to click on the iCloud beside them, but there is not one visible. iCloud is set up, at least I thought it was. I am sure there is a simple explanation, but I am missing it!
