How can I get my Itunes Library to automatically update as I add music to my computer?

When I download a song to my music folder on my computer the zune software can automatically add it to the library. Can Itunes do this?

Place the media inside <Media Folder>\Automatically Add to iTunes or use iTunes Folder Watch.

  • How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • How can I get my iTunes library back into iTunes?

    Folks:
    Hi and thanks for the assist. I recently had to reinstall everything on my Dell XPS 8700 running Windows 7 Pro. I downloaded and installed iTunes 11 and then made my default Media Folder location where all my iTunes music is (backed up). However, while I assumed (yes, I know the old axiom) iTunes would simply automatically import everything in that folder back into my new install, nothing imported. How can I get iTunes to import media (songs, movies, etc.) from my previously saved folder (there doesn't seem to be an "Add Folder" option anywhere - and I really don't care to individually add every single song...
    Thanks again.

  • How can I get my itunes library from my old pc to my new pc?

    On my old one, when I downloaded the newest version of itunes it reset my ipod nano deleting everything (everything is still in itunes just not on the ipod).  So I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes.  It keeps saying that there are no drivers to uninstall/reinstall, doesn't work.  My dad gave me another pc and I would like to know how to get the itunes library to it without having to burn eveything to cds and transfer it that way.  I don't have any other apple products, but I do have a blackberry curve and a kindle fire.  Could I use one of them to transfer?  I appreciate any help I can get.

    if youre music was in the default plcae for music to be kept (mine is C:\Users\*whatever youre name is*\Music)
    and you have removable storage (flash drive or an external HDD) just go to where you have youre music stored select youre data and move it to the usb flashdrive/HD then just plug it in to the other pc and if you have itunes installed go to C:\Users\*ur username here*\Music
    iTunes\ITunes Media then drag it into the automatically added to itunes folder.
    this is basically the same on xp\vista\7 excpet vista\7 have "libraries" kinda just shortcuts to where the data is stored by default.
    if this confuses you sorry.

  • How can I get my itunes library on my Zen Nano Pl

    I have a large selection of music in my itunes library and would like to get them into my Creative Zen Nano. I also have alot of music on my hard dri've and am having a hard time getting it to load. Help!? Sloan493

    Hi Sloan,
    What format is your music in? If the music is in MP3 format then it should be fairly straightforward, you can transfer them across to the player and they should work. Where do you run into issues, and what happens exactly?
    If the music is in AAC format it will not work, that format is not supported by the player. Provided the tracks aren't protected, you can convert them to MP3 first, and then transfer to the player.

  • How can I get my iTunes library back on my iPad?

    So, I own a Macbook and I have about 20 gigs of music on my hard drive, files are also store in iTunes Match, iCloud, etc.
    When I first got my iPad, I saw my entire iTunes library was also on my iPad, just not downloaded to the hd, it was apearing as downloadable. Over the course of a few months, while listening to music on my iPad, I noticed I was running low on storage space.
    So, instead of deleting the indivial files, I decided to delete the library from my iPad.
    However, now I cannot figure out how to get the library back on my iPad, and be able to see my iTunes library and download to the HD as I please.
    Help! Thanks!

    Hey Corey,
    It sounds like you were indeed using iTunes Match on your iPad. iTunes Match would have allowed you to view your entire library, and stream (or download) individual selections. Is iTunes Match still enabled?
    - On your iOS device, go to Settings > Music.
    - Tap the iTunes Match switch to set it to ON.

  • TS1967 My iTunes library no longer has all of my music or playlists. When I click "On this iPod" it shows everything, but it's greyed out. How can I get my iTunes library back to normal?

    I am not sure why, but everything in my library is gone. I no longer see my songs, or my playlist.
    When I click on "on ipod" in my itunes, it shows everything how it should be, but it's grey so I can't click on anything. Is there a way to transfer all of that to my itunes again? Or is there a setting for this? I am so confused, I have no idea how/when this even happened!

    Hello MeggiePie86,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. Before you go through the process of importing your music from your iPod, check to see if the music is already on your computer.  Check in the Following path C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
    Where are my iTunes files located?

  • How can I get my itunes library into my Iphone?

    I have manged to sync my Iphone with macbook pro laptop, however, my Itunes library hasnt transferred from my laptop to my Iphone: iphone's itunes library only contains a few purchases.

    How did you try to sync your music (and you are looking in the Music app on your phone, not the iTunes store app) ? You should be able to sync music by connecting your phone to your Mac and selecting it on the left-hand sidebar of your Mac's iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S), and then on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen using the Music tab to select which of your music library to have in your iPhone's Music app.

  • How can I get my itunes library on multiple computers at the same time. I have 3 and an iphone 4S

    So I have my itunes library on a laptop and synced with my iphone 4S. I have a new laptop and a tower and I use all three computers. Is there a simple way to have all three computers sync the same itunes library, and the phone?

    No.
    Iphone will sync with one and only one computer a a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.

  • My laptop broke and I just got a new one....how can I get my itunes library back?

    My laptop I have had for 4 years had all my itunes music I purchased. It stopped working. I cannt even turn it on. Is there anyway I can get my library back?

    That is not good at all.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod:  File>Transfer Purchases
    If you are in the U.S, then you can retrieve purchases from the newly released icloud:  Open itunes store, click Purchases under Quick Links
    Otherwise, they are gone.
    Always maintaining a backup is very important.

  • How can I get my ITunes library back to the way it was

    I just downloaded the new ITunes and I do not like the set up, is there a way to go back and have the layout as it was before?

    That's does nothing to set OS X to use that folder as your home folder.
    For iTunes, hold Option, laucnh iTunes, select Choose library... and select the iTunes folder on the external.
    To set OS X to use the Home folder on the external, see this -> http://chris.pirillo.com/how-to-move-the-home-folder-in-os-x-and-why/
