I have all my music on my external hard drive when I try to add it to iTunes it is automatically added to my MacBook Pro's hard drive. How do I stop this from happening? I just want the music to stay on the external hard drive. Thanks!

This is true of course, but doesn't cover the situation where some files are in the iTunes Media folder and others are on an external drive. In my case I keep my music in the Media folder and all my films on an external drive (there are too many to have on the internal drive). In iTunes 11, and before, it was easy to add those external files by holding down the alt/opt key while dragging to the sidebar. In iTunes 12 this is no longer possible. There are several workarounds: use TuneSpan to move the file after it's been added; delete the file from the Media folder and empty the trash then use iTunes Get Info which will report the file is missing and allow you to locate it; constantly switch the Add to iTunes toggle on and off as required. All of these require a lot more work than just holding down the alt/opt key while adding.
It constantly gets harder.

HT1386 I have an older ipod classic with tons of music I collected over several years. I want to add the music from this to my itunes library. When I connect it, I don't see that option. How can I do this?

I have an older ipod classic that I have had for about 5-6 years. I used this to download music from cd's through an older computer that doesn't work anymore. I want to add the music to my current computer I-tune library, but can't figure out how to do it. How do I import this music from my older itunes ipod so that I can then sync some of it with my iphone. Hate to lose all of this music since it took me years to collect and download it.

My ipads and iphone are listed and included in my 5 devices in iTunes. But it should only be computers (my desktop and laptop). If I deauthorize them, so that I can add another laptop, how to I keep the music/purchases from itunes on them?

I would like to add another laptop to my authorized devices in iTunes store. But it says I have 5 devices already. 4 of these devices are actually iphones, ipads or itouch. I am afraid to deauthorize them so I can add a laptop. It will take the music/apps away, won't it? How do you include an itouch/ipad/iphone in your iTunes account without listing it as an authorized device? And where is the '10 devices' coming from? vs. 5? Very confused
We need to use the following devices with the same iTunes id:
2 laptops (soon to be three)
1 desktop
2 ipads
2 iphones
2 itouches
Is this possible?
To make things more complicated, a few of these devices will also use a DIFFERENT apple id for the cloud/mobile me.
But we all use the same iTUNES id for apps/ music in the family.
Thanks so much for your help!

There is no list of authorized computers. Where do you see a list?
You must be talking about something other than authorization. Please clarify.

How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud

How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud and will only be available on this computer"?
You must surely be able to add and subtract songs on specific playlist?

I fixed this issue (with help from tech support) and it involved several things.
After adding a song to iTunes, right-click on the song in iTunes and select "Update iTunes Match."
OR go to the iTunes menu-->Store-->Update iTunes Match.
Maybe that's the reason, it just hadn't updated to the cloud.
OR maybe it's not a high-enough bitrate file. This happens to me because most of my tunes are home-recorded.
Sometimes converting to .mp3 or Create AAC version might work. (You do this with a right-click in iTunes, and then you will want to remove the original file from iTunes.)
There is an iTunes Preferences setting, under General Preferences called Import Settings. Try setting it to AAC Encoder and iTunes Plus. That (I think) causes imports to be slightly better quality.
Good luck! The tech support person at Apple is requesting that a knowlege-base article be written about this.

How do I add music from another iTunes program onto a new one?

Hello!
I recently downloaded Windows 8.1 onto my PC. I also had to download iTunes again, then I plugged in my iPod. Since I had to re-add all my music, I went into my iPod folders to find where I put my music (from before) to move it back into iTunes. The folder wasn't there, so I'm wondering if it's possible to find my old music again..(w/ out re-downloading everything)? It's all in my iPod; just not in iTunes.
I know this may seem like a stupid question w/ an obvious answer to some, but I just recently got my iPod, and still need time adjusting to iTunes. Thanks so much for reading this!

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod. And here is a guide about how to transfer iPod songs back to iTunes. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

After creating a new playlist in iTunes, how can I add my entire music library --at once-- to the new playlist. I want to download all my music from Icloud at once on my Macpro

You have two separate questions here...
To get all your music into one playlist, select Music in the sidebar and click the Songs view at the top. Then, highlight all the songs and drag them into your playlist.
I don't know if it's possible to download all Purchased content (or do you mean iTunes Match content?) at once; try a few Google searches.

Had 3G, moved to 3GS. Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem. When I want to add songs, I get itunes message that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything. How can I add music?

Had 3G, moved to 3GS. Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem on a Dell computer. But now when I want to add songs, I get itunes message of death that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything. How can I add music without erasing everything on my new iphone?

Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me. Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

Thoroughly angry and frustrated. I've run out of room and need to make more to add more songs. Once and for all, how do I, if I even CAN, delete music from my iPod Nano WITHOUT losing them from iTunes?

You should take the time to familiarize yourself with the documentation that is available. You can "uncheck" a song in iTunes, and then do a manual update.

I recently had to completely restore my laptop, so I lost the music on my itunes. It's still on my iphone, but how can I keep the music I already have and continue to add more music from the newly set up itunes again?

I can't help but wonder what the stupid icloud is for if my music is still somewhere in the 'cloud' but it's zero help for restoring music when it's lost on a computer....any help even a site that get's around apple would be great!

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, not good, you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to your computer. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You can also redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

A few years ago I bought music from Itunes. Recently I deactivated all computers in order to add a new computer. Most of the music I purchased came through, but I am still missing about 30% of it. How can I download all the music I have purchased from

Might have luck with that here > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchases.

How do I add and remove music from iTunes in iPhone?

I've been having trouble with my phone memory (16gb) being used up by music. I recently change setting to have it covert higher bit songs to 128 kbps which seemed to help.
I just converted to new iOs 7 and it started downloading all music from iTunes in my laptop—which overfilled the memory again.
I tried to go to manual sync and now I cannot see how to add or remove any music (and can't see the bar at the botto of the summary page which should tell me how the memory space is being used and what is available.

I don't know. It seeme to disappear after I check that I would manually sync.

I have new iphone and all data were restored but my music! How can I add my music from Itunes and new iphone?

Connect the old phone to your computer, right click on it in iTunes, and choose Transfer Purchases. That should put all of your music in iTunes except any tracks that were not purchased from iTunes. If you have any such you will have to retrieve them from the original source, or see: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.
Apple also has this tip for copying data from an old phone to a new one.

How to add music videos that are not from the itunes store?

This drives me CRAZY that iTunes will allow me to classify my .mp4 music videos that I get from other sources (NOT bought from the iTunes store) as a Music Video but iTunes STILL keeps it classified under the Movie listing. Does anyone know how I go about or what is needed to get my music video files in the Music Video list?
While I'm at it...
It also bugs me that I can't organize my library properly. For example, I have a music performance/concert video and instead of having it in a separate list of "Musical Performances", iTunes contains it under Movies. This is a first for me to complain about my iTunes experience but I just wish there would be some flexibility for me to add content and categorize/list it under my personal preferences. Anything wrong with that?

If you go to the Get Info menu and set Video Kind to Music Video it will only appear in your music library, and not in the Movie section.
The tool VideoDrive (www.aroona.net) will automatically classify all your videos when you import them in iTunes, based on file and folder name, the length of the video and other metadata...
