Cannot add music to the latest version of i tunes
I have downloaded the latest version of i tunes but i am unable to add any content i have tried importing from a disc and also drag and drop, it shows the content being added in the top progress bar but when its finished the content simply isn't there.
I have also used amazon cloud to download music and as it's downloading it says after each track that it has been added to i tunes but the music is just not there.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Recent builds of iTunes seem to have an occasional problem where the main music section doesn't always list all the music that has been added to the library. Create a smart playlist with the name of one of the albums and you should find that the media is actually present. Often adding some more media seems to fix things. Downloading the iTunes Free Single of the Week has a good success rate.
Alternatively you could try closing iTunes, then removing the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder and restarting. This will cause iTunes to run a consistency check on the database which should sort out any anomalies.
BTW I had a clue from another thread that the "missing" tracks might be listed in the Unknown Artist/Unknown Album area at the bottom of the listings. Would you mind taking a look to see if you see the same?

For some reason I cannot download and install the latest version of iTunes. 11.0.2. Could you help please? Each time I try, I get a command box saying 'The feature you are trying to download is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click Ok to try again or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes.ms in the box below.
Please help!
Many thanks in advance

UK(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
I have Windows 8.1 on my PC. Ever since downloading the latest version of i Tunes, it will not recognize any of my i Pods (3) and therefore am unable to sync any music from my i Tunes to the i Pods. I've tried all the obvious things like resarting the PC as well as the i Pods tried different patch cables but the i Tunes software will no longer recognize my i Pods. I have automatic sync selected, but I even tried to manually sync by clicking on devices under File but the sync icon is "grayed" out. When I look under Preferences and click on devices the serial numbers of my i Pods appear and are correct but again will not recognize the i Pod when plugged in to the PC. Bottom line I'm dead in the water....appreciate any suggestions....thanks

before downloading the latest version of I-Tunes, I used to be able to view the ALBUM ARTWORK at bottom left when clicking on a song.
I am now unable to see the artwork.
Is it no longer possible with the updated software ??Correct, Apple have removed that feature. However, you can still see the artwork of the song that's playing; it's shown in the Now Playing indicator at the top of the iTunes window. It is small, but if you click on it, a larger version pops up.
Also, in Albums View, you can see the album artwork. -

I've been trying for some time. It seems to install fine until it reaches 95 percent finished. Then, it freezes up and nothing else happens.
I've tried deleting all the old files under Adobe Flash and re-installing the latest version for mac.
Nothing.
Any leads on this??? Thank you for your time!katiafromasheville,
have you tried downloading the standalone version of Flash Player? If that downloads completely, then you should be able to install it successfully. -
Why is it we have to go to the trouble of paying for and upgrading the OS version, i currently have 10.4.11, just to download the latest I-Tunes onto my Mac. We have a P.C running I-Tunes and we can download the latest version without the "upgrade". Our I-phones/I-Touches work on the P.C without a problem.
Surprisingly enough... I think this is the first time I've seen that question asked. Apple regularly makes significant changes to the underlying code in their OS when they release new versions. This sometimes breaks compatibility with earlier versions of software/applications. This helps to keep the operating system lean and avoids the performance issues which can build up over time with attempting to maintain compatibility with older versions of software. Microsoft cannot make significant changes to thier underlying code as they need to maintain backwards compatability for quite a few years (mostly to support the vast majority of businesses that run on the Windows platform). Apple needs to regularly update iTunes in order to address new features/hardware, but it also updates it to be compatible with newer versions of the OS (nearly every update to OS X comes with an update to iTunes). Unfortunately, sometimes the latest version may no longer be compatible with older versions of the OS.

I am unable to transfer music from iTunes on my PC to my iPad2. Recently I have upgraded iTunes and iPad to latest versions of software. Can you help with a solution?
Thanks, but I checked - iTunes Match is turned off in my iPad. In fact I am not subscribed to iTunes Match.
After docking iPad to my PC, I clicked the iPad icon in the side bar of iTunes. Then I tried to drag and drop music from my iTunes library into the iPad. But it doesn't go!
I am not syncing iPad with iTunes on my PC because an alert is appearing to erase all the earlier stuff which I had transferred to my iPad from a different computer. This is eventhough the 'selected playlists....' is checked.
I am signed into both Ipad and iTunes using the same ID. -

How can I add artwork with the latest version of itunes?
When I try to add artwork to my iTunes, it doesn't work. I already tried the Find Artwork button, but it didn't find artwork for all my songs. Then I tried to add it myself. I added artwork to whole CD's, but it wouldn't let me add it if it was just one song! How do I fix this? Thanks!
Then change back to the old layout:
