Cant see songs in library but can on ipod

I have 241 songs on my ipod but only 156 in my library - even though every song on my ipod was purchased from itunes (i.e., i did not download any songs from a cd or other external source). I have clicked on the Store heading and clicked check for purchases. Any guess as to why the songs I purchase are downloading to my ipod but not my library? Is there a way to copy songs from my ipod to my library? Thanks.

Never mind...I think I just figured it out. I have a 300 GB hard drive with a volume label of "300GB" mapped as a network drive to E: on my laptop. I was just looking through other threads and I think my laptop is getting confused between the ipod and this network drive...I'll just map it to a different letter and see if that fixes it.

After disconnecting ipod from pc it shows no music and no podcasts. I have tried more than 1 usb port on my pc. I have restarted my ipod. I have restarted my pc. I have again reloaded my ipod software. No change in the result. sync appears to work. itunes shows the content on its window of the ipod but no content on the ipod itself.

I want to delete songs that in my library to increase the memory on my pc, but if I de-select them, they will be deleted from my ipod.
I want to keep all the songs in my ipod but add to them later, how do i do this.
also, i may wish to delete songs later, but again how do i do this if i have deleted my library.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Set iPod to manual update.
But be warned, if something happens to your iPod later, you may risk losing your songs. Better backup your songs first before deleting them from the computer.

The red exclamation mark indicates that itunes cannot find your files.
Are the music files still on your harddrive. Look n Finder
Username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
If the files are there then keep the option key pressed and open iTunes. A dialog box will open asking you to choose your library. Select Choose and then navigate to the Music/iTunes Folder and click OK

I have the same issue with the blank store. I have my music I already have but I can't buy or preview any songs that the store finds for me. That's my main issue.

I have just downloaded itunes 10.6 and in the process my "podcast" option under library has disappeared! The files are still on my laptop. I can also see some of my recorded music in my itunes library but can play them - there is an exclamation mark next

I have just downloaded itunes 10.6 and in the process my "podcast" option under library has disappeared! THe files are still on my laptop. I can also see some of my recorded music in the itunes library but can't play them - there is an exclamation mark next to each track. Basically I can't use itunes - is the only option remove and replace? Thanks in advance

Visibility of the Podcasts section is controlled from within the Edit > Preferences dialog.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
Missing tracks
Typically this can happen because a file or folder is accidentally shunted to the wrong location. iTunes can also get confused if it expects to be talking to an external drive which isn't there. If will often reset the default media folder location and may have trouble finding files in the old folders.
Select one of your tracks that is missing in action. Press CTRL-I to Get Info. Cancel when asked to try to locate the file, then look at the location given on the summary tab. This where iTunes thinks the file ought to be? Now find out where it actually is. Post back the two locations for comparison. I should be able to give you some steps to reconnect everything once I can determine which of the things that might have gone wrong is most likely in your case.
When you get it all working make a backup!

New Mac can't transfer songs from library to iPhone or iPods

I just bought a new Mac Mini because my iBook died. My iTunes library is stored on an external hard drive. I can see the library in iTunes, but when I try to move them to my iPhone or iPods I get an error message. It states that the new computer must be authorized. I do the authorization process and it tells me that this is computer of 2 of the 5 that I can authorize to play music and it is authorized. But, I can play the songs thru iTunes, but can't transfer them to any other devices.
The majority of the music in my library wasn't purchased thru iTunes. It is music ripped from purchased CD's to the hard drive and then imported into my library. I have had no problems for the last 5 years with this library on the laptop.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong, or suggestions on how to solve the problem?
Thank you in advance for any help.

IS your ipod in Automatic mode or Manual.. Meaning if it is in manual mode you must transfer the songs manually. TO change - With ipod connected go to edit - preferences - ipod from that you ca select whether you wat automatic "yes" or manual

Shapes are already on Ai CC Library but can't drag them to the canvas, why?

I created some images on Adobe Shape and saved them for Illustrator CC; I can see them on the Ai Library but can't drag them to the canvas. If I double-click on one thumbnail this message appears: This item isn’t directly editable in Illustrator, but it can be placed in a document. To place the item, drag it into an open document.
- I thought that it CAN be editable in Ai.
- Drag doesn't happen.
Can you please tell me what to do?
Thanks.

Hello sarahginax,
You may need to enable 'manual mode' in the iPhone, then drag these songs to the iPhone. At that point you should be able to remove the songs as desired.

If still unable to remove these entries, you'll need to backup and restore the iPhone.

Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff.

I can see songs that are not on my iPod.

When my iPod touch is not connected to Wifi I can still see all the songs in my "iTunes in the cloud". When I am away from Wifi I want to only see songs I have downloaded on to my iPod touch. When i do not have a internet connection I can still see all the songs. Is it Possable to only see songs that are actually on the iPod touch?
It is really anoying when I go to choose a song to listen to in my car and it is not avaliable because I have not downloaded it to my iPod. I have an 8gb iPod touch and I have to be very choosy which songs go on the iPod because of the size which Im ok with but I don't want to see all my music.

The problem may be that some songs by a particular artist have an album name, while others (the ones that are missing) have a blank album name. Try assigning an ablum name to the ones that are blank. You should then see them on your ipod under the "Artists" selection.

It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.
Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions
See [[Options window - Content panel]]
*A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (Site Identification icon) on the left side of the location bar.
*A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Open the Media tab of the "Page Info" window.
*Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

How do I access all the Arturia 49 key analog library to Garage Band? I see the analog library but not all the SW instruments?

Alex,
have you tried everything in this thread? The problem seems to be different for everybody:
If nothing helps try dagon's full monty for a reinstall:
Re: GarageBand '11 won't download additional loops
Or a manual download using the Terminal as mteep suggests:

I recently upgraded computer to windows 7. When I open itunes I am able to see my music library, but unable to play. Gives an error message of "Could not be found". How do I retrieve my library contents?

Hello ehoff5,
I would be concerned too if I was not able to play my music in iTunes. It sounds like the music files may be in a location that iTunes is not expecting. I recommend reviewing the following articles to locate you music files on your computer:

Your wifi network is not working. Restart it. Delete your wifi settings for this network via System Preferences, Network, WiFi, Advanced. Reconfigure and try again.
