How do I find Preferences on Itunes?

I am trying to Convert MP3 or M4a from Itunes to planning Center. The directions I have say to go to preeences but I can't find preferences on the most recent Itunes. Please help!

The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar - allowing you to access Edit > Preferences
CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
With iTunes 11.0.3 and later you can enable artwork in the Songs view from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view
View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) also contains options to change the sorting of grid based views

How do I find out where iTunes thinks missing files are?

I have several hundred "missing" files in my iTunes library but they are all actually on the computer. But I don't remember where the were previously. I add dozens of songs at a time to my library all the time and there is no Earthly way for me to constantly remember where they were before. I don't just want to reimport the files because I have several hundred playlists with these files and it would be completely stupid to edit them all one at a time when all I need to do is to move them back to where iTunes thinks they should be. So where is that? The Windows media player has a column that displays file location. Why doesn't iTunes? (This is so stupid. It makes things -not just this- so much easier when you have the file location in the music list in your music player.)
Is there a way to find out where iTunes thinks the missing files should be at?

The exclamation mark means ITunes doesn't think they are anywhere.
If you right click - get info on a song then view the Info tab, you will see where iTunes last used it from.
I'm not a newbie. I know quite a lot about iTunes. You sound like you don't though because if you did you would know that this is not true. If you "right click - get info on a song" (pressing cancel to the Locate popup) "then view the SUMMARY (not info) tab" you will see "Not Available" where the file location usually is. I wouldn't have asked this question if I hadn't gone through the steps already.
Thanks for trying though. Next time, please try the advice before you give it.

You should not have to remember anything about where they were.
I agree.
Are you always moving them around?
When I install a new hard drive. Yes. I generally keep everything organized and I let iTunes keep the folder organized but several years ago I used windows media player to organize my media.
Frankly I don't know HOW the recent songs/videos/etc. go missing. But some do. Maybe I accidentally move a folder without realizing it. Mistakes happen. Then I need to move it back but since I didn't know I did it in the first place I can't possibly be expected to remember where I moved it from.
Do you have iTunes prefs -> Advanced Keep ITunes music folder organized ticked and Copy files to iTunes ... ticked?
*OF COURSE!* Again, I'm not a newbie.
I have several hundred playlists with these files
Why would you have several hundred playlists?
I don't mean to sound rude but you sound like an Apple fanboy. Are you trying to tell me how I should use my own program? The answer to the question is I am a salsa instructor/DJ and I am constantly adding songs and videos to my library. Every month I have various salsa events, classes and performances that I do. I use my iPhone for the music. I need to maintain the playlists because students/teachers/studios/clubs/bars/churches/etc. call me back and want a repeat of the great salsa night I gave them a year ago. Naturally my playlists are highly organized into folders. So, I still have them and I need them.
Apple has its own ideas about how people should use its stuff but everyone is unique and our needs therefore are unique too. Apple doesn't realize this and still wants us to do things "the Apple way" even though "the Apple way" only works well for people who want their hand held through everything. This is why I say you sound like a fanboy. You don't know my situation and question if I need hundreds of playlists. I do.
I just need an answer to the question.
Thank you for your reply though. It gave me hope, for a time.

How do i find my newest itunes tv downloads, in my video app. In the OS7 all my purchases are there so i can find which onw is the new ones that i have not watch

Well blow me down & keelhaul me! I've solved my own problem. The issue appears to be that Apple won't sync Smart Groups from Address Book to the iPhone. I created a test group with a few dud contacts in Address Book; iTunes sync'ed then OK & as soon as I went into Contacts on iPhone, there suddenly was the Groups button appearing with 2 Groups - my Test Group + all Other contacts. Nice one apple - another undocumented feature! Looks like I have to do away with the Smart Groups feature & convert them all to normal Groups in Address book - bugga!

ITunes has compilations for sale of, for example, Folk Music and Reggae, usually with 3 levels of inclusion. How do I find these in iTunes to purchase them?

iTunes has compilations or samplers for sale of, for example, Folk Music or Reggae, usually with 3 levels of inclusion: a beginner selection, one which includes more, and a deeply inclusive set. Many of these are very good but since upgrading iTunes I can't figure out how to find these. How do I find these in iTunes to purchase them?

If for some reason you failed to import any purchases made on your iphone to your computer, not good, then
you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

How do you find contacts in itunes

how do you find contacts in itunes once the phone has been synced?

There are no contacts in itunes. Itunes is a media management program.
Your contacts will be on your computer in whatever program you have chosen to sync.

How do i find out my itunes account balance

How do i find out my itunes account balance? Thanks

There is no sign of my Apple ID in the iTunes Store, no matter how many times I log in.
If I click on the "Purchase History" from my itunes receipt email, it redirect me to the itunes download page, everytime!
ALL I want is the BALANCE - How hard can it be!?! (...and purchase history would be nice!).
But instead the only options under Account are:
Update your Apple ID email address and password
Change your default shipping or billing info
Update Express Checkout settings
Manage email subscriptions
And the "Store - View Order History" knows nothing about itunes order history!
And all the iTunes links, keep sending me to the download page!!!
Sigh.

How can I find music in iTunes media folder not included in my library

How can I find the items that are in iTunes music media file but are not currently in my library? There is 7.5G and 1623 items in the music media file but only 5.95G and 1280 items in my library. If I try add the media file to my library it duplicates. So how to find which files are missing from the library and only add those to my library?

Try using a software that its designed to find duplicates, such like these: http://www.howtogeek.com/201007/how-to-find-and-remove-duplicate-files-on-mac-os -x/
Search and proceed to do the deletions, copy or cuts necessary

How do i find balance on itunes gift card?

Was given an appletv about 3 years ago. my son gave me a gift card with$100 credit. Ii have only used about $30 and should have a balance.
Was recently told to update my apple and when i did i was asked for a password. I could not remember the password; went to apple id and reset my password.
Still unable to find out what is correct password and what my account balance is. Cannot find my my itunes card. I understand that once card is entered into account it should be useable.

You cannot use your Apple TV to redeem your iTunes GC
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1574?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
When you reset your password then Apple will e-mail you (e-mail account associated with iTunes) a new password.
The iTunes GC was activated on your Apple ID so you can only see what the balance is as well as redeem the amount only with your Apple ID on your iTunes account using a computer, iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch.

HT4539 I can't find preferences in iTunes? How stupid am I?

I have (I believe) downloaded all updated software requirements to enable auto sync between my devices through iCloud. However, when I go to enable iTunes I cannot access Preferences to do this? I cannot see anywhere to click on Preferences in my iTunes view. Any help would be appreciated.

On a Mac you can open iTunes' preferences via command-comma (or the iTunes drop-down menu at the top of iTunes) - automatic downloads is then on the Store tab on that. On your iOS devices it's in Settings > iTunes & App Stores (Settings > Store if they aren't on iOS 6_

HT2518 how do i find/use my iTunes after using migration assistant from pc to mac

someone please help!!! i bout a macbook pro and i used the migration assistant to transfer everything from my pc the the macbook. it said it was sucsessful. i found the files in my utilities folder but i can not figure out how to use the itunes and or merge it with the one on my macbook. when i open the itunes on the desktop nothing is there. my old itunes has both uploaded music and bought music. i want all of the music transfered. any help appriciated. i couldnt find this answer anywhere on the site.

I have the same problem? I have found out that the migrated files cause a new user to be set up . You have to go to your system preferences icon ( the black & white one with gears) open it up and clic on users & groups under title of System. In there you have to unlock the lock and go to the newly created user I think it shows up as a house. Clic on that and your system will change to that new user. Your files will be in this new users files. I found mine this way but even though I found them I still cannot move or transfer them into my I-Mac I-Tunes program.
If anyone knows how we can do that we would be very thankful
