External HD not showing up in Events Library 10.1.3

I just updated to FCPX 10.1.3 and under the event Library it does't seem to show when I have an external HD connected like it used to. Am I missing where that is, or when I want to edit from an external HD do I have to save to that HD manually now instead of just selecting it in the Events Library and working normally from there? I am (obviously) not very proficient in FCPX so excuse me if this is a silly question. Thanks!

You need to learn about the new way media is managed in 10.1.x. The fundamental concept here is a "library". A library is a single file (a FCP X "document" if you will). Libraries contain events, and events contain clips (as before) and projects (they are no longer separate from events).
Using your older material requires updating.
You should see here: Media management 10.1.2

Events on External Drive not showing up in Event Library

Hi,
I spent several hours last night importing nearly a Terabyte of iMovie events into FCP X. It took forever, but seemed to work - all my iMovie events appeared in the FCP Event library.
Today, when I started up FCP X, my external drive appears in the list, but none of events on that external drive appear. There is a directory called "Final Cut Events" directory in the root directory of that external drive and this directory seems to contain everything. Any idea why aren't these events showing up in the Event Library?

I have the same issue. I have two external drives, both from WD, both formatted "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)", both connected via firewire 800. Sometimes the first one appears in the Event Library, sometimes the second one. After starting Final Cut both volumes displayed for the split of a second before one of these disappears.
I have filmed that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLzJH6vQAyo

Events not showing up in Event Library

I have been working on importing a bunch of video from my DV camera and all has gone well up to this point. The next time I opened iMovie my events did not show up in the event library. When I look on the Finder I still see the clips in the iMovie event folder, but they are not in my event library. All I see in my event library is my iPhoto video and an option to open the Last Import (although nothing is there). Even when I import new video now, I can still find it in the finder, but not in the iMovie event library.

Talked to Apple support- we figured it out. In case anyone has the same problem: one of my events in the iMovie events folder was corrupted, once I deleted that file, all was well.

HT201272 I purchased songs from iTunes Radio on my iPhone, but now the only place they will show up is in the iTunes Store app on my phone, even after syncing to my computer a million times, the songs do not show up in my library or anywhere else.

I purchased songs from iTunes Radio on my iPhone, but now the only place they will show up is in the iTunes Store app on my phone, even after syncing to my computer a million times, the songs do not show up in my library or anywhere else. My phone is not syncing properly, I wanted to add another playlist to it that I created on my Mac. I pluged in my phone and made sure the playlist I wanted to add was checked to be on my phone when I synced.
The playlist I wanted to add was "Country." It is clearly checked. I also wanted to add the "Recently Added" playlist, which I also checked before sycing. Currently, my phone only has the "Purchased" playlist and my "All Songs" playlist on it. When I hit sync, iTunes added another playlist automatically added another playlist to the list above and checked it. It was titled "ALL SONGS 1" and had ten fewer songs in it than the playlist I had created, "ALL SONGS" had. This playlist, however does not show up on my phone after syncing, nor does "Country" or "Recently Added." (Every time I sync, another playlist is created as "ALL SONGS 2, 3, 4, etc.") One of the songs (I have not, yet checked the other songs) that I purchased from within iTunes Radio shows up in the "ALL SONGS 1" on this screen:
But does not show up anywhere else. This playlist does not show up anywhere but the two screens above. The ALL SONGS 1 or 2 playlists do not show up here:
When I search for those song in my library, it shows that I do not have them:
But if I go to the iTunes store, I get the play button and not the price of the song:
This is what things look like from my phone's side of things:
"Summertime Sadness," one of the songs I bought from iTunes Radio, does not show up in the iTunes store under purchased "All" or "Not on This iPhone"
But, it does show up under "Recent Purchases"
Also, this is what playlists are on my phone after syncing a million times:
Only what was on there before I started any of this. "Summertime Sadness" and the other songs I bought from inside iTunes Radio, do not show up in either of these playlists. Please, help me.

I have songs on my iPhone but they do not show to my iTunes library. How do I get them to show?

I have an iPhone 4 and have songs on it that do not show on my iTunes library. Everything is up to date, but I cannot get these songs to show to make my playlists. Some of these songs were from CDs I had. How do I get these songs to transfer from the iPhone to the iTunes library?

I rented Argo in iTunes on my iPad, it downloaded, yet it does not show up in my library.

I rented Argo in iTunes on my iPad, it downloaded, yet it does not show up in my library. I have the most updated version of iTunes on my laptop and Apple TV. I logged onto my computer (Windows) and tried renting it again, iTunes store told me 'you have already rented this movie'. Is there an issue with rentals today? Help!

Roaminggnome - Thanks for your reply, you made my day! This is my first time renting a video, so I didn't realize you had to go into a different app to watch it. Enjoy the rest of your weekend

My wife purchased some songs from itunes for her iphone. If I go to sync her ipphone with our itunes library will her purchases be wiped out. They do not show up in our library on my computer.

My wife purchased some songs for her new iphone from itunes on the phone. They do not show up in our library on my home computer. When I go to add new songs to her iphone from my computer are her purchases going to be wiped out.

Is the computer authorized for her iTunes account? If not, sign her in in iTunes and then go up to: Store>Authorize this computer. You say "our library", does that mean she does not have her own computer login? Has she ever synced to this computer/iTunes before? Once she is logged in & the computer authorized for her account, you can transfer purchases on her phone without syncing. With her phone connected, iTunes running: File>Transfer Purchases.

When I try to sync my music on my iPhone 4 I have a tab at the top that says 'on this iPhone' The music in that tab is always on my phone but does not show in my itunes library. How can I get it into my library?

When I try to sync my music on my iPhone 4 I have a tab at the top that says 'on this iPhone'. This is at the end of all the other tabs like info, ringtones, music etc. The music in that tab is always on my phone but does not show in my itunes library. How can I get it into my library? It doesn't sync either.

The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version. You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes. Or you can adapt to the new look.

I had iTunes on my old computer and I am trying to get all of the same music on my new computer. I have download iTunes and signed in, but it is not showing up in my library. How do I get all of my old music back?

It does not magically appear in a new place. It will only be where you put it.
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

I bought a CD and it charged me for it and said it downloaded it but it's not showing up in my library...

You must not post here because you have a portable. The problem is related to iTunes so you should post into the iTunes for Mac section and you may also have better luck in answers as iTunes specialist are there.

I just bought music that is not showing up in my library.

I bought music in the iTunes store but it's not showing up in my library. It is showing up on my devices though. What the...?

Do you see it in your Recently Added playlist and do you use iTunes Match?
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4543259 - delay of several hours (for some people overnight) for new additions to iTunes to appear in the main library window as a result of using iTunes Match. Things to try:
1) Turn off Match, see if the items appear, then turn Match on again.
2) Drag the items from the Recently Added playlist to the library.
3) Wait until they do appear.

ICal is not showing some past events since I upgraded to Lion.

iCal is not showing some past events since I upgraded to Lion. I can find the past events in mail but if I click and open them, they are not showing up on the calendar. Advice? I am trying to recreate my schedule from past meetings.

I love computers.
Have managed to fix this already. Been working the issue for a few days now, and a few minutes after writing the above post I decided to reset the Time Capsule to factory default settings.
After entering all my details again (used same network names, passwords etc) the Time Capsule was rebooted. When it came back on line - guess what? Yep, the MyBook WD drive is now visibile. I can connect via the network from my other machines to the drive, and iTunes is back.
So - thought I would post my resolution in case it helps others.

Importing songs from CDs - not showing up in my Library

I am aving trouble importing songs from CDs. I completed the process as instructed - using the "import this CD" button (I have done this many times successfully).
The import process ran OK. When the Import process completed, I looked in my music Library and the songs were not there.
I repeated the process - same result. Nothing in my music library.
What should I do?

Re: [iPod classic] - Re: Importing songs from CDs - not showing up in my Library
Thu, Feb 09, 2012 08:01 PM
When I load the CD, iTunes recognizes it and asks me if I want to Import the CD.
When I click on "Import CD", the song titles are retreived and show up. The iTunes bar at the top of the screen shows "Importing track 1" or "Importing the song by title". Each song is imported, and I can see each song being impotrted via the iTunes bar at the top of the screen. iTunes shows that the CD has been imported, and the system dings when the import is done.
This is exactly the same as every other time I've imported CDs. The only difference is that the songs do not show up in the library.
Thanks
