Can't find INSTRUMENTAL songs for iMovie, slideshows, etc

Yes, I know there's a lot instrumentals, but I'd like the "genre" to state that in order to make it a bit easier for me to get the song that suits my movie or slideshows best.
Right now, it takes me a ton of time just to find the right song in iTunes.
And, iTunes is a bit screwed up also. The other day, I found a classical orchestra playing Beethoven in the "Country " music genre.
I really love iTunes because it's been so easy for me to put the music into my movies, AFTER I've spent a lot of time searching...

Yes, there are many instrumental only songs, but what I might have not mentioned is in iTunes, there's really no classification for "Instrumental" only.

HT5100 iTunes can't find a link for a song I purchased

iTunes can't find a link for a song I purchased last month. How do I re-download my song? iCloud doesn't allow me to re-download it, so I'm at a loss...

You would need to contact Apple Support to have your Security Questions reset:

Can't find default settings for slideshows

Aloha--
I'm running iPhoto 5.0.4, and want to set two defaults: my music, and my transitions (none). Every time I select a folder of photos and click "slideshow," however, the slideshow comes in withe "Jesu" from the sample music folder, transition - "default:dissolve", and the Ken Burns effect. I have looked at other posts on default settings, and they say (and show) a "save settings" button for the music choice. My settings have nothing like that.
This is Apple! Don't tell me there's no way to set these two simple defaults.

My error. The top of my page read 6 when I logged in yesterday and didn't check it further. Sorry about that.
I don't think you can set a default set for new slideshows, only those that have been created. But that's for when you click on the Play button at the bottom of the Source pane next to the "+" button. That one has a Save option but it's only for that one folder of photos. Each new folder has to be saved also.
You can get rid of the default sound track and replace it with something you'd like as the default. Open the iPhoto 5 application, Control-click on it and select Show package contents. Then navigate to the Contents/Resources/Music folder. There are the default music tracks. You can move the out and put in a couple of your own favorite tracks.
Sorry about the mix up.

I tunes can't find original song files of all my songs. How do I fix this?

I tunes can't find original song files of all my songs. How do I fix this?

Itunes stores ripped cds in the 'itunes' folder called 'itunes music' which under normal installation should reside into your 'My music' folder. Your music folders on the DVD then have to be copied into the 'Itunes music' folder for itunes to find it.
The tracks with the exclamation marks have registered with the incorrect location into the library. You can do two things:
Either search in the folder where you copied them from the DVD at the earlier step described above which means that you will have to do this for every single track, or the fastest way, delete all the incorrect entries and re-import by drag and drop into library the folders with the music you want to show in the library.

Updated iPod software, now it can't find 100 songs of my music.

It cannot fine the origional file for 100 songs? If I go into my music folder, itunes music, I can find all the songs. What happened!!??

This is a major Itunes Flaw!
This is not an issue that one of the volunteer experts can answer or solve. There needs to be a software change.
Why they have not found a fix for it I don't know.
If google can index and locate billions of pages, why in the world can't Apple make an itunes program that can locate songs after you have undocked.
With me my problem is that I have my songs on an external drive. When I plug it back in it shows that it is the same drive, but itunes can't find the songs. Even when I repoint it in the right external directory, I still have to go into the specific root directory for that song. If you have 4000 songs that could take forever.
What is the Deal Apple!!!!

I just installed Lion OSX. Where can one find the "domain" for iWeb?

With Snow Leopard one could find the "domain" for one's iWeb in Admin+Library+application support+iWeb. When one changed computers, one simply had to save this domain and then put it in the right place in the new computer. Things have changed with Lion OSX - and I can't find the "domain" for my web site.
Anyone know where to look (Scripts?)
Thanks,
T...

The reason Apple has hidden the User/Library folder is that there is not longer any reason to get into it what with iWeb (and iDVD) being discontinued and no longer supported.
We now know iWeb, and iDVD, have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
If a site is published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client to an ftp server subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed will be broken. If published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
Click to view full size
Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
The iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD.

HT201272 I can't find my songs I just bought on my iPod touch..please help thank you

I can't find the songs I just bought on my iPod touch. Any help you can give me is appreciated.. Thank you

If they've finished downloading then they should be in the iPod's Music app - is that where you've looked for them ? If they don't show in there then have you tried closing the Music app via the iPod's taskbar and/or tried a soft-reset of your iPod to see if they then show up in Music ?

I can't find purchased songs in Music Library or in Recently Added. The purchases are on my account.

I can't find purchased songs in Music Library or in Recently Added. I have searched my library but they are not there. Itunes says that all recently purchased items have been downloaded. Where are the songs?

I don't know how, but this problem resolved itself for me. If you don't see the downloads go to Documents, My Music, iTunes and then scrounge around to see if you can find a file with new downloads in there. Then you can drag them to the iTunes icon.
Then try shutting down iTunes, and your computer and restart to see if this issue fixes itself. I know, only a Mackie would think that a computer could fix itself.

I can't find a song I bought on itunes?

I bought a sobng on itunes, and when it showed up on my song list it had a picture of a cloud near it. Now, I can't find the song on my itunes list but I paid for it. Help?

Does it stil have the cloud symbol or not ?
If it has the cloud symbol next to it e.g.
If it has then that implies that it is only in the cloud and not downloaded into your library. If you click on it then it should download onto your computer.
(You can turn off whether items that are only in the cloud show on your iTunes library via Edit > Preferences, iTunes > Preferences if on a Mac - select the Store tab on that and there should be a 'show iTunes in the cloud purchases' tickbox.)
You can also redownload content via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage. If an item is shown there but doesn't have the cloud symbol then is it still listed in your iTunes library (i.e. where you would click on it to play it) ? If it is then iTunes will be seeing that and assuming that there is therefore no need to be able to redownload it - deleting it from your library should then give the cloud symbol against it in Purchased.
If it doesn't show in the Purchased link at all then is it still in your country's store ? If not then the record label has probably removed it, so you won't be able to redownload it. If it is still in the store but not in Purchased then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919

HT4914 When I subscribed to iTunes Match I lost all my songs. I did a back up of my ITunes Library to iCloud but I can't find the songs! Can someone help me?

When I subscribed to iTunes Match I lost all my songs. I did a back up of my ITunes Library to iCloud but I can't find the songs! Can someone help me?

I guess the iTunes store is not recognizing your computer. Did you de-authorise your computer after you uploaded to iTunes Match. Did you register your new computer with a different User ID? Do you have Genius turned on (which needs to be on as it works in conjunction with iTunes Match. Did you authorise your new computer?
You paid for ITunes match & uploaded your songs using a different computer. So there are obviously one or more steps which need to be taken to download your media from the iCloud. Either someone else with more expertise than I can help you, for example, Limnos Limnos ; or King_Penguin King_Penguin or Chris_CA https://discussions.apple.com/people/Chris%20CA would probably be able to help you better than I.
I don't work for Apple, I'm only a volunteer, if you can't get help from someone as mentioned above there's always Kappy (who is extremely busy) Kappy ;
then I would recommend going through the tried and true channel here > http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
Sorry I couldn't solve your problem myself. I'm about ready to retire from this game.
Peace Out.

Can't find a song that I know is on iTunes

When I was in Europe, there was a song I heard called "Nine Million Bicycles in Beijing." I know it's on iTunes because I did a search on it when I was in Europe using my laptop. The only reason I didn't buy it was because everything was in Euros. And .99Euros is much more expensive than $.99 in the states. When I came back to the states and did a search for the song, it can't find it. Any ideas why?

SirSly, welcome to discussions! I've done several searches in the European stores including UK, France, & Germany, & can't find this song in any of these 3 stores. The most likely reason that it isn't available in the US store is that the copyright holders of the song have not negotiated a deal with the US store for distribution.
This scenario is usually why songs may be available in one country but not in others. Copyright holders can easily vary from country to country & deals have to be negotiated in every country for download distribution of music. Hope this helps!

There is a difference between the passcode and the sync key.<br />
The passcode allows to setup all sync parameters with a single code on other devices.<br />
To enter the sync key (and user name and password) you need to click on "I don't have the device with me" at the bottom of the "Add a Device" window (Click Connect).

ITunes can not find orignal songs

iTunes is saying it can not find orignal songs. The ones it can not find are all the songs I put on there from my Cd collection. Having taking the time 3yrs ago to put them all on itunes I do not want to do that again. So itunes does not fully sync with my ipod. Also that means I can not create a play list with any of those songs.

Unfortunately you will either have to locate the files for those songs on your Hard Drive or re-import them to iTunes. There are however several steps you can take to make sure that this doesn't happen again.
1. In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences
2. Choose the Advanced tab in the Preference window
3. Under General their will be a option to check "Copy file to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" select that
4. Exit the window by pressing OK
Also you will want to consolidate your iTunes library to reduce future loss of other files currently in iTunes. By consolidating your files it will place a copy of all of them inside your iTunes folder on your Hard Drive. To consolidate your library use the following steps in iTunes.
1. Advanced > "Consolidate Library..."
2. A warning dialog will appear stating "Consolidating your library will copy all of your music into the iTunes music folder. This cannot be undone" Press "Consolidate"
iTunes will copy all your files to the iTunes Music folder. This will NOT copy any of the files that it cannot find though.
