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.

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.

So I recently bought 3 new songs, and they won'y show up on my main iTunes Library page or under the artist, but they show up under purchased. How can I get them to show up under the artist/ main library page?

If your Mac is new-ish and has one of the Lions as its OS, the drives, cards, USB sticks no longer show up, even though they're there. Go to Finder's Preferences and tick the corresponding items in the General and Sidebar tabs.

Is the app compatible with the iPhone (i.e. it's not an iPad-only app) and do you have the relevant iOS version on your iPhone ? Does it show in the Purchased section in the App Store app on the phone for you to download it (re-downloading) ?

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

If you're running Mountain Lion (10.8.3), reminders is now a separate app. Launch reminders from your applications group and you will be able to access File>New Reminder.

Is it plugged in via a hub? If so, plug it directly into the box.
If you're plugged into the box, try a different USB port.

Can't get wallpaper to show up in the background on my iPhone 3G

Can't get wallpaper to show up in the background on my iPhone 3G????
I have tried everything I can think of. But for some reason Apple has not made this easy to do. I just can't seem to get a Wallpaper to show up in the background. I can get it to show up on the lock screen, but that's it. Am I missing something? Has any one fond this simple feature hard to figure out?

WHAT! Oh, come on. This was the only reason I was interested in iOS4. I mean really I knew a lot of features wouldn't work cause of the lack of procesor speed, but the Walpaper is just a static graphic, what is so hard with that? I mean three OS's ago I hacked my iPhone and got that feature working. Apple did the pooch on this one. I hope this is not like holding back features like they do on cars to sell the over priced ones.
Gee! I am so ******! I spent a living H E Double Hocky Sticks trying to get the darnm OS on my iPhone and none of the features except the very poorly implemented folder or is tit a tray directory thing. Well it's back to OS 3 and hacking it to get it to work properly.

I can't get the tv shows to play... just getting a black screen.

I can't get the tv shows to play... just getting a black screen. HELP!!!!!

caddis,
I am getting the EXACT same problem. I started to watch an iTunes purchased TV Show episode back on February of 2014. I stopped after about 15 minutes to come back and watch it later.
Yesterday, I tried to continue the tv show, and NOTHING. All I get is a black screen with no audio. The time bar is advancing, so iTunes thinks it is playing. BUT NOTHING.
Can anyone assist with this problem?
PS: I use my iTunes on my PC only, and have for years without this problem.

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?

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.

Where are you looking on your iPad for the shows? In iTunes? If so, look under Videos.

I have 2 apple tv's but my playlists only show on one; can I get them to show up on both? I have home sharing turned on and itunes match.

If you are attempting to share to both at the same time, you can't.
Are you selecting the second AppleTV in home sharing options on the MBP. Are all devices signed in for Home Sharing with the same AppleID?
