Home sharing in iTunes 10 is only showing music to share.  How do I move my apps to a new computer as well?  (both are PC's and both have iTunes 10)

I am have been working on moving my iTunes library from one computer to another.  Both PC's.   I have updated both to have iTunes 10 as it is the most recent version.   I turned on Home Sharing and successfully moved over my music, however I can't seem to move over everything else.  It is like it isn't set up to do so with Home Sharing.   Any suggestions?

Select the name of the shared library in the source pane of your itunes, and click on the wee disclosure triangle to the left of the name of the library. Does "Apps" appear beneath the name of the library?
Here's a screenshot of what I mean. (Unfortunately, it's not showing "Apps" because there aren't any in that library. But fingers crossed it should give you an idea of what you're looking for.)

  • My iTunes is only showing music in the cloud.

    This just started happening last night. All of a sudden, all of my playlists are gone and iTunes is only showing music from the cloud. All of my music is on my local computer but it doesn't appear in iTunes. I've turned off the cloud functionality and then no music is displayed at all.  Because of this issue, my phone's music is no longer syncing to iTunes since I use a play list to sync. Same issue with my movies and apps. The entire library in iTunes has been replaced by the cloud. iTunes Match and Genius are turned off. They were never turned on.

    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.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    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.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    Hi, I have had to purchase new computer as my old one packed in and i have lost my entire music library. How can I sync my I-Pod touch without losing the music on it that was put there through importing cd's as i no longer have some of the cd's but really want to keep that music?

    See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    Hopefully you take the time to back up these files regularly in the future.

  • 2 of my authorized computewrs have crashed and burned. Need to deauthorize them before adding the new computer, as well as one of then was my main itunes computer. how do i move everything

    2 of my computers have crashed and burned in the last week. One of them was my main computer for itunes. i have 2 issues:
    1) i need to deauthorize the other 2 computers in order to authorize my new one.
    2)how do i move all of my music etc to the new computer?
    thank you

    Thanks much, that's very helpful for step one (getting old phone onto new phone).  Very clear. 
    However, I still have the problem of moving to the new computer.  How do I move the sync to the new computer after the new phone is set up?

  • ITunes Match only shows music I bought on iTunes

    I have a new Apple TV and just subscribed to iTunes Match. On my iPad I can access my entire library of music from the iTunes Match cloud (things I bought from iTunes and things I bought elsewhere).  On my Apple TV, when I go to "My Music" all I see are the songs I have purchased from iTunes. The rest of my library doesn't show up (and that's a LOT of music).
    Is Apple TV's iTunes Match limited just to iTunes purchases? I hope not because that would make it nearly useless.

    Thanks for the help guys, but I might need to clarify some things as I think we're talking about different things.
    AirPlay works - I can play anything off of my iPad through Apple TV.  Since my iPad can access my entire iTunes Match library then I can stream anything in it through Apple TV.
    Home Sharing works - I can access my iTunes library on my computer via Apple TV when I've got iTunes up and running on the computer.
    What does not work is using iTunes Match on my Apple TV.  I have turned on iTunes Match on my Apple TV, but the only songs that show up on my Apple TV are ones that I purchased on iTunes. 
    I want to be able to access my iTunes Match library via my Apple TV without using Home Sharing or AirPlay.  Those options work great when I'm home, but sometimes I take my computer and iPad to work and my family will not have access to them.

  • ITunes library only shows music in the cloud, how do I tell it to show the library on my hard drive?  iTunes 11.0.2.26

    I don't know how this happened. 
    I opened iTunes last night and the player only lists items from the cloud, which is a small percentage of my itunes library - no podcasts, no playlists.  Somehow the iTunes players has "forgotten" that my music library is on my hard drive.
    How do I tell the iTunes player where to look for my library?  In About iTunes, the version I am running is 11.0.2.26  
    Also, how did some random songs/albums end up on the cloud when I didn't put them there?  Some of the songs were purchased through itunes but not all and not all of my purchased songs, etc. show up on the cloud.  I'm so confused.
    Thans for your help!

    If they are iTunes purchased music then go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and turn off Show All.
    Next
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • I SET UP THE HOME SHARING ON MY COMPUTER, AND i CAN STREAM MY PHOTOS AND SEE ALL THE VIDEOS AND LISTEN SONGS IN MY ITUNES, BUT CAN NOT DO HOME SHARING, ON THE TV, ALWAYS SHOWS "TURN ON HOME SHARING ON YOUR OMPUTER WITH YOUR ID WHICH I DID BUT NOTHING HELP

    I just bought my apple tv yesterday and SET UP THE HOME SHARING ON MY COMPUTER, I CAN STREAM MY PHOTOS AND SEE ALL THE VIDEOS AND LISTEN SONGS IN MY ITUNES, BUT CAN NOT DO HOME SHARING, ON THE TV, ALWAYS SHOWS "TURN ON HOME SHARING ON YOUR OMPUTER WITH YOUR ID WHICH I DID BUT NOTHING HAPPEN. WHAT'S WRONG? WHAT SHALL I DO NOW?

    I have found with AppleTV that it is the IPV6 on the computer you want to access is the problem.  The issue is that Homegroup on Win 7 or Win 8 requires IPV6 to work, but AppleTV won't work with IPV6.  (So maybe double check you have IPV6 turned off)
    So you have to make a choice - Homegroup or AppleTV.... but you can't have both, until Apple brings ATV up to date. (crazy that it does not recognise IPV6 - c'mon Apple!)
    You can set up sharing individually in Win 7 or 8 and have the ATV access files that way.
    Having said that, there is always the exception.. I have an old HP home server running Win8 and it services ATV - but is part of the Homegroup... have no idea why it works on both, but no other machine on the home network will talk to both ATV and Homegroup at the same time!

  • My iTunes library only shows purchased songs but i have more music on my iPod if it syncs i lose it all?

    My iTunes Library only shows purchased songs from iTunes, i have music on my iPod from purchased and cds i have burnt from my computer, this all used to show up in my library but since having to have a new hard drive in my computer my library only shows purchsed songs. If i want to sync my iPod it tells me i will lose all exsisting music which i don't want to do, can anyone help? 

    - TransferiTunes purchases to the "new" computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - When all ths stuff is in your iTunes library, make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and then right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Backup.
    - Last, restore from that backup and then sync as necessary.

  • TS3697 My new iTunes does not show me a PHOTOS tab when syncing my iPad 3. It only shows Music, Films and Apps tabs on the top left menu.

    My new iTunes does not show me a PHOTOS tab when syncing my iPad 3. It only shows Music, Films and Apps tabs on the top left menu.
    What am I going to do?

    The Photos tab doesn't appear there. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos e.g. :
    If you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

  • How come my iTune store only shows podcasts nd itunesU as the option when I thought I could download music or movies?

    I got my ipad2 almost a month back. But the ITune store only shows two option, podcast and ituneU...can somebody tell me hot to buy music and movies from the store?

    It depends on what country you are in - not all content types are available in all countries. A full list of what is available where is shown on this page . If you are in one of those countries where only podcasts and iTunes U are available, the unfortunately you won't be able to buy music and films from Apple (and the terms of use of the stores state that you cannot use another country's store). Are there other music purchase download sites in your country ?

  • I have activated home sharing but it's not showing up in my iOS devices

    I have iTunes 10.4.1 and iOS 4.3.5 on my ipod touch and I have activated home sharing but it's not showing up in my iOS devices. I don't know what i'm doing wrong.
    My firewall is allowing iTunes. I even disabled it and see if that would work, and it didnt.

    I've heard on older versions that you need to disable home sharing, then turn it back on but there's a trick, DO NOT HIT THE DONE BUTTON!  when you click DONE it actually closes sharing.  after you enter your username and password and hit enter, just go and click on your music folder on the left.
    This seems to be the fix for many.
    Word of caution - don't upgrade to iTunes 10.5 - it's breaks home sharing.

  • I set up home sharing but can't access the music on my iPhone

    My Iphone was out of storage so I deleted downloaded music and set up home sharing where I supposedly could access music stored on my computer.  It is supposedly set up correctly on my computer and my Iphone 4.  Both have latest software.   Instructions say to open music and then press more but when I open music app there is no "More"  It just says "no content" and a link to Itunes Store.   How do I get "More" to show up in my music app?

    You need to configure computer iTunes to share. not just your computer.

  • "Recently Updated" on iPod Touch Only Shows Music, not Podcasts

    I have a 'Recently Updated' smart Playlist in iTunes, set for 'Added in the Last Week' and 'Live Update'. The iTunes 'Recently Added' shows music, podcasts and movies, but when sync'ed, the iPod Touch (3rd Gen, 32GB) 'Recently Added' only shows music.
    Tried setting 'Media Type' to 'Podcasts' and 'Music' but it results in an empty playlist...
    Any ideas?
    TIA,

    There are some known quirks with how smart playlists sync to the Touch. In theory the contents (and sort order) should match when you compare the playlist on the Touch vs. your iTunes library, but that's not the case due to a bug in the 3.1.x OS on your Touch.
    As a workaround you can try un-checking the Live Updating option, but then that not only disables Live Updating on the Touch it also disables it in iTunes, so you'd have to re-check this option and then un-check it again each time you re-sync.
    Another possibility is to define a mixed-logic smart playlist:
    Date Added Is In The Last Week
    AND
    (Media Kind is Music) OR (Media Kind is Podcast)
    You can do this as follows:
    1- Enter your Date Added criteria
    2- Click on the (...) to "indent" the next criteria.
    3- Add the criteria "Media Kind Is Music"
    4- Click the "+" button to the right of this criteria, then add "Media Kind Is Poscast"
    5- Set the top match rule to "All" and set the 2nd match rule (after your Date Added criteria) to "Any".
