How do I display my columns, like "date added" in the new iTunes?

I updated iTunes. I like to play the music I most recently added first. I had this all sorted into neat columns in the old iTunes and now I cannot seem to sort by "date added" or "date modified".

If you don't see anything when you connect your ipod it's meybe something wrong with the USB cable, If you have another you can try that.
try to shut down or restart your ipod and then connect it.

How do you transfer music from your ipod touch to the new Itunes?

How do you transfer music from your Ipod touch to the new Itunes?

The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. the only exception is ituens purchases.
You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

My desktop with iTunes crashed, how do i get my music on my phone to the new Itunes on my laptop?

Have you not got a backup of your content on external drives and/or CDs/DVD ? If so then you can copy that onto the computer and load them into iTunes. Have you tried doing File > Transfer Purchases in iTunes with the phone connected to see if any of you purchases transfer over ? If you are in the US then you should also be able to re-download past music purchases : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If you havn't bothered backing up your content then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned on this old post still exist and work : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11014893?messageID=11014893#11014893

How do i drag my music from a Folder to the new itunes without getting the no sign?

Ok i downloaded the new itunes, So i could sync my ipod touch; Now I synced my ipod, I wanna drag new music over from my folders to my library like i used to, but now i get a no signal (A circle with a line through it) How do i drag my music over without getting the no sign?

Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself independently backed up against loss. To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer. iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.

How can I put everything back in my iPhone to the new iTunes?

My computer was broken down and I bought a new one.
I download an new iTunes, of course nothing inside!
I just want to know how can I put back all my things in iPhone to the new iTunes!
That's means I have all the things( songs, apps...etc ) in my iPhone and I just want to copy those things fully to the new iTunes, without losing anything!
Looking for help and thank you so much!

You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

Can't figure out how to remove select music from my iPhone 4 with the new iTunes

My old PC with all my music on iTunes died, and I need to remove some music from my iPhone 4 to make room for the new OS update. I downloaded iTunes on a different computer and tried to sync the iPhone to it, to move all the music on my iPhone to iTunes so I could deselect what songs I wanted to remove to make the storage space. I can't figure out how to do this with the new (non-user-friendly) iTunes update. When I sync the phone, the only songs that show up are the ones I have purchased on iTunes, but non of the songs/albums that I transfered from CDs. I don't want to reset my phone to delete ALL my music, just select songs/albums. Can anyone please help me figure out the new iTunes to be able to do this? It is driving me nuts and I'm getting really mad at Apple for their constant updates making things less easy to use!

i have the same problem, if u find it out please let me know :C i can erase or put new songs from my pc to itunes u.u

New Mac, how to keep Date Added info in new iTunes

Yesterday I bought a new iMac, replacing my older one.
I have 66GB of iTunes Music & Videos which I saved on an external hard drive. I copied the "iTunes" folder from my Mac onto the hard drive.
I know I can just drag the folder into iTunes on my new Mac, but I would lose all the "date added" and "play count" information. I see that in the iTunes folder I saved, there is an "Album Artwork" folder, an "iTunes Library database file", an "iTunes 4 Music Library database file", an "iPod Games Library database file", and an "iPod Games" folder.
Does the iTunes Library database file contain all the information? Because I tried to replace that file with the current one on my new Mac, and when I opened iTunes, all my songs, playlists, and data added information was there, but all the songs had an exclamation mark beside them. So then I dragged the iTunes folder into iTunes but then I had doubles of each thing.
So my question is, how can I import my music by keeping the Date Added, Play Count, and playlist information?

Normally if you want a trouble free move, all your music files must be in the iTunes Music folder as designated in the preferences.
However if you music is on an external drive and the full path to the music files will NOT change, this is no essential. iTunes cannot tolerate any change to the path to music files that are not in the iTunes Music folder. If the files are in the iTunes music folder, it can tolerate changes to the path above the level of the iTunes Music folder.
All the data on playlists, count, ratings is in iTunes Library.itl which by default is in ...My Music\iTunes assuming you haven't moved it. This iTunes folder also contains your album artwork, so you need to save the whole folder.
When you have iTunes installed and working and before you add any more music, you will need to replace the iTunes folder created by the new installation of iTunes with your original iTunes folder and ensure the path for the iTunes Music folder is correctly set in the preferences.
Because it sounds as though you have a somewhat non standard arrangemnt, I can't be sure that what I have said is exactly right but I hope I have given you neough to sort it out.

How can I transfer a playlist from my ipod to the new itunes library?

How can I attach artwork to a film file in the new iTunes?

Just recently went through a binge of updates (iOS on phone and iPad, Mavericks, iTunes). Somewhere in the process, I lost the ability to attach artwork to film files (haven't checks TV or albums yet). I go to "get info". I update the genre, sort it as a film, and attach the artwork. All other changes hold, but the artwork is simply lost. If you reopen the "get info" file the artwork is blank. Is this planned? A bug to be fixed? Any thoughts on a workaround? Thanks.

Sorry I forgot to attach the image.
Like you say if it can only be attached to the primary storyline, how do I make the upper clip the primary story line?
Thanks

How do i get my ipod to show up in the new itunes

I just recently got a new computer and just installed the latest version of iTunes, and I also updated the software for my iPod. Now my iPod won't show up in my iTunes or in mycomputer. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

If you don't see anything when you connect your ipod it's meybe something wrong with the USB cable, If you have another you can try that.
try to shut down or restart your ipod and then connect it.

I don't like some features in the new iTunes and my favorite visualizer doesn't work with it . I threw everything to do with iTunes away and tried to install an earlier version but the installer kept giving us this error page telling us to quit iTunes !

The installer is crazy . It keeps thinking that iTunes is running even though we dumped everything we could find ( preferences , application , libraries ) . Did I miss something ? Is there an uninstaller? I need an earlier than 10.5 version . I don't like the side swipe ( it feels unbalanced ) effect and my favorite visualizer doesn't work right with it . Thanks!

No problem, glad to help!
Update: my PC USB hub was connected to a USB 3 port, I connected the 30 pin cable directly to my PC, And the restore worked just fine. Restored phone from iCloud backup and seems to be working fine.

HT1848 How do you transfer purchases from an iOS device using the new iTunes (11?)?

I've just updated iTunes to ver. 11 on my mothers new PC and I'm connecting her iPad up for the first time. I can't see anything like the transfer purchases option that exsisted in the previous versions. I've tried to eject and start again, but it's still not giving me the option like it used to when you connected a device for the first time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

okay, should have serched a little more.. all I had to do was CTRL + b in my library to view the file menu, and under File -> Devices -> transfer purchases
Please ignore this question!

How can I get my email access back after downloading the new iTunes on my iPhone?

Yesterday I downloaded the latest iTunes 11.01.12 on my PC (Windows 7), then sync'ed to my iPhone G4. Now when I try to access one of my email accts, I get the message: "The mail server "imap.gmail.com" is not responding..." I have checked the acct info in Mail settings and all seems in order (IMAP Path Prefix is blank, Server Port is 993). Strangely, my other email acct (also gmail) is working. I have tried restarting, re-

What is a "G4" iPhone? No such thing exists.
Regardless, installing iTunes on the computer has no affect on being able to access an email account on an iPhone.

What can I do simply to keep all my previous contents, (own pics, videos, etc.) on my previously authorized iPad on PC, but get a new authorisation and a right syncronization, without data loss with a new iTunes on my new Mac?

Friends,
I already had an iPad(1) and its full contents (not only the purchased items, applications from Apple, but my all own pics, videos, songs etc.) is normally syncronized with an authorized PC (Windows) computer.
Now, I've bought a new MacBook Air computer, and want to sell my PC. But I don't know how to transfer (or syncronize) all of the contents from my previous iTunes on PC to the new one on the Mac.
When I connected my iPad to my new MacBook Air, I promted, if I want to change authorization of my iPad to the MacBook.
But also got a warning, that the new iTunes will delete from my iPad all my previously syncronized items, pics, videos and music, with the previously authorized iTunes on the previous computer, expect the saved pics from the net.
What can I do just like that, simply to keep all my previous contents on my iPad, but have a new authorisation and a right syncronization, without data loss with the new iTunes on my new Mac?
Thanks a lot for your answer.

Here are some instructions that I have posted several times that may be helpful to you as they have been to others. You can simply ignore anything that does not apply or that you have already done.
As Alan stated above - transferring the iTunes library is the best first step. If you can transfer the iTunes library to the Mac, most of this will be unecessary for you to do.
Very Important ....
1. Authorize the computer.
2. Turn off auto sync in iTunes
3. Transfer purchases
The text in italics is from the other thread - non italics are my words.
The following was copied from this thread. This is essentially what you want to accomplish.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
1) Without connecting your iPad to your new computer, start iTunes. Click on iTunes. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) Now connect your iPad to your computer and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your computer, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on iTunes / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
Read this thread and the support links as well. There are apps that you can purchase that will allow you to transfer photos from the iPad to your computer. Look at Photo Transfer App in the App store and you can search for others as well.

One final note - you may want to leave auto sync turned off - but that is totally up to you. I never did use auto sync.

HT2905 My itunes looks nothing like the examples in this tutorial. I do not have "display exact duplicates" or "date added". Can someone please help me remove duplicate songs? Also, I downloaded two audio books and they are showing up in my song list.

My itunes looks nothing like the examples in this tutorial. I do not have "display exact duplicates" or "date added". Can someone please help me remove duplicate songs? Also, I downloaded two audio books and they are showing up in my song list. Why???

'Show duplicates' is now under the 'View' menu. To see the 'Date added' column go to 'View options' from the 'View' menu and check it in the section under 'Stats'.
Click an audiobook once to select it and hit command-i (Mac) or control-i (Windows). Go to the 'Options' tab and set 'Media Kind' to 'Audiobook'.

How do I display my columns, like "date added" in the new iTunes?
