Cannot get music into Apple TV folder

My whole music library is in ITunes, all songs are checked-in, my Apple TV is recognized by ITunes and all other categories stream/sync without problem.
But I cannot get any Music from my library into my Apple TV Music folder. Not even by creating a playlist and trying to sync this playlist. As a result, I cannot play any music on my apple TV because both sync ad stream do not yield any results.
What am I doing wrong ???

I too can't get music into itunes. Running XP on a Dell box-of-some-kind. Installed itunes, fine. It imported most of my existing music on start-up just fine; most of the music is on two external hard drives. My music library was too big for the 80gb ipod, so I set to manual sync. It found the ipod. So far so good.
Some of the music wasn't in the itunes library after the initial install. When I went to put it there manually, nothing happened. Tried drag and drop on the library music icon. Tried "add file". Tried "import". Tried deleting the file on the itunes library, the hard drive and the ipod, and re-ripping it in windows media player (mp3 format), then tried steps above again. Nada. Rebooted, tried same steps again. Zip. It's not like these were just some folders that were missed; these are songs missing from albums, where the other songs on the album imported and these ones didn't. I even tried deleting the entire albums, re-ripping them, and re-importing them; now none of the songs in those albums will show up. I read that itunes won't copy duplicate files and won't give feedback, and I tried the posted work-around with the equivalent of the option key. Still no joy. (all the music file formats are mp3)
All this music is purchased and ripped from cd's, or is my own recorded stuff. Nothing pirated. I can uninstall and reinstall itunes, but will that be likely to resolve my problem? Running itunes 7.
Also can't import movies or anything else. Checked the help on itunes, and found nothing there. Does itunes simply have a limit to how much content it will allow in its libraries? Anybody know of a book on itunes 7 that has good trouble-shooting tips?

  • Cannot get Music into Itunes Library

    Stumped on this one, need help. Using a PC, brought in music from external hard drive to my own. Followed posted web instructions to add folder to library. Result is all new music shows up in i tunes music folder, but not on I tunes library. Without actually playing each song individually, (physically double clicking them from I tunes music folder), how do I now get almost 30 Gig of music to show in my I tunes library. Current library shows 27 gig, should be 57 gig with new music.

  • After sync my music disappeared. Now I cannot get music back on phone!! I have one song on my ipod even though I synch with my playlists selected.

    After sync my music disappeared. Now I cannot get music back on phone.  I selected playlists and triedeven loading allmusic.I have one song on my phone and cannot load any music back on it. Is there a setting I may have selected that needs to be changed???

    Okay. I hope I can remeber all my steps exactly because I fixed my own problem...with absolutely no help from Apple. I opened itunes. I connected my ipod touch to my computer. On my itunes page that shows my songs in the upper right side under the search library box there is an itunes button and since I am connected there is an ipod button. DO NOT CLICK THE ARROW in the ipod button...just click in the mail part of the button. On mine it opened to a summary page that gave info on my ipod. The menu bar has Summary, Apps, Tones, Music and more. I clicked on the Music button. I chose to Sync the entire music library. That replaced what was on my ipod but what was on there was going to be put back on so I was okay with it. I then clicked the Sync button on the lower right side and it sync'd and all my songs are on my ipod again. I hope this might help someone else. Good luck.

  • I cannot get music to play on iPad speakers

    I just purchased a used iPad. 3rd gen. I cannot get music downloaded from my iTunes account to play on the  speakers. Siri works. Sound on alerts works. But nothing from music I have downloaded. What is more confusing is volume buttons don't do anything and no sound bar appears in the control center. Thoughts?

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iDevice?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • I cannot get back into my eprint account.

    I cannot get back into my eprint account. It will not recognize my password and when I click on "Can't Remember Password" and go to the page where I need to enter my account email address it will not recognize it. It's the same email address that appears in the window of my new 8600. I run Windows XP. Any idea of how I can get back into my account?

    Cannot select a music into slideshow and book slideshow presentations. In the older Mac this was easy. With new Mac OS X 10.6.8 it should work as I can stop the slideshow with cursor but pop up window for choosing music is dead. I cannot drag music into it. Preselected music just goes on.

    I am talking about iPhoto. In my old Mac even in Books choosing slideshow gives a pop up where you can select a music from I tunes library. In this new one I can stop the slideshow with cursor and it shows music option but it is, as I said dead. Does not response at all to commands.

    I think it has something to do with WPA2/AES key renewals.

  • I have just downloaded CS6 and RAW 8.2.  I cannot get RAW into Bridge, but it shows up in Photoshop Preferences.  How can I get RAW into Bridge?

    How do I get Camera RAW 8.2 to show up in Bridge?

    The latest ACR for CS6 is ARC 8.7.1 and ist get installed into a common folder that both Photoshop and Bridge use. CS6 perpetual Windows should be at level 13.0.1.3 and Mac at level 13.0.6 where subscription CS6 version should be at version 13.1.2.  You may have installed ACR 8.2 into Photoshop CS6 Plug-in folder  that is not the correct location.. Where it goes depends on your OS Platform and level.

  • Okay..I've been trying to fix this for DAYS now!  When I sign in (under settings) w my new apple ID, then go to update or purchase something I cannot get the new apple ID to come up.  It's still using the old one (which is disabled) ..please help!

    Can someone pls help me??  Okay..I've been trying to fix this for DAYS now!  When I sign in (under settings) w my new apple ID, then go to update or purchase something I cannot get the new apple ID to come up.  It's still using the old one (which is disabled) ..please help!

    Delete what? The ID's? They cannot be deleted - you just quit using it.
    If you still have one old ID - that you have purchased content with - you are saying that the password no longer works with that ID? Did you try to reset the password for that ID?
    Read this - instructions if the ID was disabled for entering the wrong password.

  • I cannot get music to play on my iPhoto slideshows.

    Using OSX, itunes 10 and iphoto 9 .
    I cannot get music to play on iphoto slideshows. It never used to be a problem before OS10.
    Desperate and would really appreciate any help.
    many thanks
    <Edited by Host>

    You may access your iTunes music iin iphoto
    You may also access it in other apps - like iMovie
    If - for some reason - you can access the music in iMovie but not in iPhoto, then the issue is with iPhoto.
    If you can't access it in either then the issue is with iTunes.

  • Cannot get logged into icloud

    I cannot get logged into my icloud account.  I get an error "This AppleID is valid but is not an icloud account".  How can I resolve this ?

    You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC.  You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

  • I have bough music on iphone. They show up as purchased in store but cannot get them into my library on computer

    I purchased music on my iphone. When I am on my lap top they do not show up in my library. They show as purchsed in the itunes store, but I cannot get them to library. I would like to listen to the whole songs I paid for and not just the previews. Any help would be appreciated..

    Hello Husker Proud,
    Thank you for the question.  It sounds like you would like to download all of your previous iTunes purchases to iTunes on your computer.
    Follow these steps to download all your purchased songs:
    Download previous iTunes Store purchases to an authorized computer
    Click iTunes Store near the top of the iTunes window.
    Click the Purchased link at the right of the iTunes Store homepage (below Quick Links).
    In the page that appears, select a category. 
    iTunes shows you which of your purchases are available for download. You can view all of your past purchases, or just the ones not currently in your iTunes library. Items already in your library aren’t available for download. If you select Music, you can view your purchases by song, artist, or album. If you’re viewing by album, click an album to see which songs on it are available for downloading.
    To download an item, click its Download button .
    To download all available items, click Download All.
