Can't get artist to show up when connecting to shared itunes library

I have been having a problem seeing all of my artists when connecting to itunes on my iphone. I can connect to this shared Itunes library, but when I do I can only see about 12-15 artists not the 1,000's I have. When I go to the songs tab I can see all the songs. How can I see all of my artists again?
I am using itunes 10.0.1 (on my iMac) and Iphone 5 version 6.0.2.

In your itunes on the PC, Apple TV 3rd gen does not show up ever this is normal as Apple TV3 does not store any content you can access from the PC
On your Apple TV to see your PC library, Select Computers from the front screen and it should show your pc library.

Can't get Apple Remote App to stay connected to my ITunes library.

I recently had my modem and router taken out by lightening. So I replaced them both with what is supposed to be the latest and greatest. Simultaneously, Apple had a new version of ITunes, so I updated. Now I can't get the Apple remote app to stay connected to ITunes. If I start ITunes on my computer, my IPhone 5 will see and connect to the library, as well as my IPad. But as soon as my IPhone or IPad goes to sleep and I try to reconnect to the library, it can't connect to the library. I've never had any connection problems before and not sure what is causing the problem. I can turn off Home Sharing in ITunes and turn it back on again, or restart ITunes and it works, but as soon as the IPhone or IPad goes to sleep, it won't reconnect again. Is this a router issue or ITunes Home Sharing issue? Any input to resolve this will be greatly appreciated..............because it is really annoying not to be able to control music the way I did before! All products have the latest updates.

Take it back and exchange it.
If the remote doesn't work out of the box new then either remote is faulty or AppleTV is faulty (eg IR sensor not located properly in the case).
Either way one of them isn't working, exchange it.

HT1363 My old iPod Nano says to use iTunes to restore and I've followed all suggested help steps, but I can't get it into disk mode nor can I get it to show in my computer or in iTunes.

My old iPod Nano says to use iTunes to restore and I've followed all suggested help steps, but I can't get it into disk mode nor can I get it to show in my computer or in iTunes. I have the latest version of iTunes. Windows has all the most recent updates too. I can reset the iPod, but the message to Use iTunes to restore comes back and I am stuck.

Already tried another USB port, still nothing.
I don't have another PC to check, I only have one which is the one not working with my iPod.
It appears under my Computer, just not under iTunes. Plus, the iPod classic troubleshooting assistant doesn't work because I can't restore since it can't come up onto my iTunes! Even my iPod says "Use iTunes to Restore" once in a while, but I plug it in & I'm not able to restore it since it won't come up under iTunes.
Please help

HT1329 How can I get the songs on my iPod onto my new iTunes library?

I have an iPod that was synced to another iTunes library on another PC. The PC died and I replaced it with a MacBook Pro but it keeps saying the iPod is synced w/ another iTunes library. How can I get the songs on my iPod on the new iTunes library?

Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

Can't get artist to show up

I just put my Young Jeezy cd on my ipod...and Young Jeezy doesn't show up on my artist list...the album is on there..but the artist doenst show up.

This isn't foolproof but there are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song is marked as part of a compilation or 2) it is missing an album name.
If the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. Compilations are stored in a separate folder in iTunes so the songs don't appear inside the normal Artist>Album folder which may be why this happens.
Also if tracks are missing an Album name in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances but the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous in place of a title. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod

How can i get all my music from my ipad into my itunes library so that i can download it to other ios devices?

I have an iPad that is loaded with music that I actually burned the cd's into iTunes on a computer at work a couple of years ago. I switched jobs some time ago so I no longer have access to that computer. Is there anyway to get that music into my iTunes library on my home computer so that I can download it onto my new iPad or other iOS devices? Computer stuff is NOT my forte.

How can I get my music off my iPhone and into the iTunes library?

My computer broke down a long time ago and I lost all my music, the only place I have any of it now is on my iPhone. None of my songs were purchases. I haven't updated my phone since I got it a year ago, I deleted and backed up everything on my phone except for my music because I can find no way how, and I still don't have enough space to update. Some of the songs I have on there, I can't get back if I delete now, not anywhere. Why is there not a simple, built in way to back up music??? This has been driving me insane forever, I really just want to get my music back into iTunes again, or get it onto the computer I'm currently using, somewhere, anywhere, at this point. Is there any way to do this without downloading some program that you have to pay for to get to work?

How can I get my music off my nano and into my itunes library?

We did an erase/install on our imac and forgot to back up the itunes library. Thankfully my music is on my ipod, but how do I get it back into my library?

You can try some 3rd party utilities like those above. Your mileage may vary.
Officially, there is no way to get music off your iPod and onto your computer. Sync is 1 way only.

Can't get video to show up when Export Media

Not sure what kind of noobie mistake I'm making, but when I try to Export a clip to video in Premiere Pro CS4, (via File>Export>Media>and then selecting flv or h264), I'm not getting any video output. The audio comes across fine, but the screen is blank in all of the players I've tried (Flash, Quicktime, Adobe Media Player). I've had both the audio and video layers selected when clicking File>Export>Media, and there was an eyeball in the video layer for visibility.
Not sure if this relates to the problem, but the 2nd display in my Premiere Program (not the Source Window but the ?Sequence window I guess) is black at rest. If I click play, I can see the video and hear audio, but as soon as I stop the play, that window goes back to black (as opposed to displaying the current frame the movie is on).
I've tried changing all the parameters I could think of, but none of that has fixed things. So any help would be appreciated.

Bill,
Thanks for the help.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem that simple. I had both the Audio and Video boxes checked for export, and had something selected in the Multiplexer tab as well (those values varied since I've tried exporting in a few different formats).
I'm going to close Premiere and just make a very simple project and see what happens with export.
Any other ideas on what I might be doing wrong?

How can I get Firefox to show videos when I visit websites that have videos? None of the videos play or is visible, even though I can hear the audio. However, I don't have that problem when I use Internet Explorer.

I'm using a PC with Windows 7 OS.

Hi Marcos140,
I would like to help, but is very hard to diagnose with so little information...
Do you know why you needed the bridge in the first place?
Is your laptop connecting via wireless or a wired connection?
Please try this:
#Click start
#Type cmd
# Push Enter
#A black box will open
# type in "ipconfig /all"
# Screenshot the output
# type "ping google.com"
# Screenshot
If you can post the output of those commands it will help.
Thanks,
Curtis

I have up graded to a 4s and can't get passed the set up when connecting to IT tunes to activate- it keeps saying this 'Apple device hasn't been started '- help please

I have just upgraded to a 4S and having trouble on set up. I get to the point that asks for connection to IT tunes and a message appears on my computer saying 'this apple devise hasn't been started' . I have checked that my SIM has been swapped with O2. Help please.

It sounds like you might be on a Windows computer and the Apple Mobile Device Service isn't running. Check this support document with help for that error. http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567

HT1491 I can't get all my purchased songs to download into my itunes library. I tried to download "ALL" and only 44 songs out of 986 downloaded.

I have not been successful in downloading all of my purchased songs. I uesd the "download ALL" in the bottom right corner and it shows they have been downloaded, however, when I check certain songs I find I am still missing several dowloads. Any suggestions ? when I tried to download them a second time it won't allow it.

What happened to them? They can't just disappear? Have you changed computers or re-loaded the OS since the last time you synced? Do you have a backup of your computer from when they were present in iTunes? Were they ever present in iTunes?

Can't get DNS for laptop on router connected to shared NIC

I have my router connected to my PC on one NIC that is shared. Another NIC connects from the PC to the cable modem. The laptop is able to see and connect to the shared wiresless router but cannot receive a DNS address. No internet browsing. On the same shared wireless connection I have an XBox that can connect and get a DNS response. Also the PC has no trouble connecting to the internet.

It sounds like your network is setup this way:
modem - PC - router )))) laptop
                                 )))) Xbox
Is this the way your system is set up? If so, why?
Most systems are setup like this:
modem - router - PC
                         )))) laptop
                         )))) Xbox

When I have a pdf file open, I used to be able to click on "Bookmarks" tab on left side and allow me to click on each individual page and delete if I needed to. Now when I click on the Bookmarks tab, that section is empty. How can I get it to show each

when I have a pdf file open, I used to be able to click on "Bookmarks" tab on left side and allow me to click on each individual page and delete if I needed to. Now when I click on the Bookmarks tab, that section is empty. How can I get it to show each page again?

Hi chrismarks1,
I think you may be confusing bookmarks with thumbnails. If you click the Page Thumbnails icon (the one above the Bookmarks icon), then you can delete a page by clicking its thumbnail, and clicking the Delete Pages icon (the trashcan icon). Just make sure that you're viewing the PDF file in Acrobat (rather than Acrobat Reader), as you can't delete pages from Reader.
Best,
Sara

After updating to iOS 7 the contact photos no longer appear when I receive a call. How can I get them to show again?

After updating to iOS 7 the contact photos no longer appear when I receive a call. How can I get them to show again?

I'm having the identical problem on my iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 7--no ability to update apps or download new apps. Here is what Apple tech support emailed to me:
I understand that you are unable to download or update applications after updating iOS7 on your iTunes. I know you must be eager to get this resolved and I will be happy to help you today.
... to help you better with this issue I would request you to please try this steps given below to resolve your issue.
Please follow this steps:
1) Double tap the home button
2) Hold down on an icon
3) Tap the red "X" on iTunes, and the App Store.
4) Tap Settings > Store > Tap your Apple ID, and choose sign out
5) Tap Settings
6) Tap General
7) Tap Reset
8) Tap Network Settings
Once it has been closed with multi-tasking, and you have rebooted the device in the network settings reset, please sign in, and try again.
Howevr, if you are facing the same issue than for this issue, you may need to call our AppleCare technical support team. A technical Advisor will be able to tell you about Apple's complimentary and fee-based support. The technical Advisor can also assist you in determining what option might be most helpful to you in this case.
Mildly amusing that the instructions for force-closing a program are the IOS 6 instructions, which do not work on IOS 7.
Otherwise I'm having a little success with this. Some apps (not all) are updating. It seems that a few more apps update each time I go through the process (close everything, sign out, and either reset or reboot, then go to the app store, sign in and try to update all). So far it has been a very lengthy, iterative process.
