How do I get my sidebar back in windows in iTunes 12

How do I get my (left) sidebar back after installing iTunes 12 on my PC using  Windows 7

Go through each of the sources Music, Movies etc. and select Playlists. Use the ellipsis ... to enable the sources you want to see. Apps, Tones, and Internet Radio don't have a Playlists button, but the others do and remember your selection. Not quite the same as it used to be, but not too different. Other display controls are available from the drop down at the right-hand side.

  • How can I get the sidebar back in iTunes 12?

    The Sidebar is the MAIN part of iTunes I have used for several years.  Unfortunately, I made the mistake of updating iTunes to 12, and the Sidebar is completely gone.  As far as I can see there is no way to get it back.
    Does anyone know a way to restore the Sidebar?  If not, is there a way to revert my iTunes back to version 11?
    At this point, I will only be using my iTunes to back up my iPhone, that's it.  Until I get an iTunes that is more user friendly....one with a Sidebar....I will not be using iTunes for any other reason.  (Yes, I'll be boycotting the store....no purchases of any kind from iTunes from now on.)

    But it's not exactly the same. You can only look at one thing at a time. You no longer have the heading that says "Library" and then the music, movies, etc., listings under it. I am now migrating computers and this has made it a royal PITA. Before, I could have all the listings, including my shared library, and I could just drag-and-drop from my shared library to the new one. Not anymore. Now I have to go in and import. Which, like many other people, takes a long time because of the size of our music collections. My rock category alone looks like it's going to take several days. I don't have a flash drive large enough to just copy to that and then move that way.
    So thank you so very much Apple for once again fixing something that wasn't broken.

  • My sidebar has disappeared. How do I get my sidebar back?

    My sidebar has disappeared. I can't get it back by sliding the margin to the left back and forth. I cannot find the answer in the HELP section. I need to be able to switch back and forth between SENT and INBOX etc.

    The Folder Pane is exactly what you are describing. If you have confirmed that the option I described above is checked and the folder pane is still not showing move your mouse to the left margin of the window and when it turns into a double headed arrow, click and drag to the right.

  • During an update my iphone wiped all the music I had bought on itunes on my phone and i hadnt backed it up, how do i get those songs back?! help!!!

    help! during an update it somehow went terribly wrong and restored my phone back to factory settings! I didnt lose my photos or contacts but have lost all the songs i bought via my itunes app! I admit I havent backed up recently, but how do i get those songs back?!

    Contact iTunes support, plead your case, and request they add the lost music to your download queue. Be nice, as they are under no obligation to do so:

  • TS3988 My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

    My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

    If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
    If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
    Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there.  If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

  • I've got a new IMAC, but i don't have all my music or movie purchase on it.  I just recently updated iTunes.  How do I get my purchases back?

    Ive got a new iMac and now that i updated iTunes I do not have all my music and movie purchases.  How can I get it all back?.  I used to have it before update

    It doesn't magically transfer itself, you have to do it.  Purchase may present themselves for re-downloading but things such as CD are only on the old machine or on the CD.
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder. If you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple recommends,  "... back up your iTunes library. " (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519).
    Additional tip at https://discussions.apple.com/message/24176756#24176756
      Select the iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes if you have the sidebar displayed, or with the button at the top right.
      Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
      You can re-download your available previous purchases.

    Hello there, Lynn.
    The following Knowledge Base article explains and offers up some troubleshooting recommendations for issues with email acounts showing offline on Mac Mail:
    Mail (Mavericks): If a mailbox is offline
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14925
    Lightning bolt icons next to mailboxes in the Mail sidebar identify accounts that are offline.
    To take an account online, click the lightning bolt icon. Or choose Mailbox > Online Status > Take [account name] Online, or Mailbox > Take All Accounts Online.
    If you can’t take an account online, make sure you’re connected to the Internet. If a warning icon appears after the account name, click it for more information.
    Use Connection Doctor
    Some mailbox names can appear dimmed if you don’t have permission to access them, such as “public” mailboxes on a server, or if the mail server is unavailable.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Emergency! Please Help. I have an iPhone 4 with all my pictures from the vacation on it and I plugged into my computer and it sync'ed to my ipod.  all of my pictures are gone.  How do I get my pictures back?

    If all you did was sync your phone, and if you haven't synced again since this happened, you can restore your phone from the backup that was created at the beginning of the sync process (camera roll photos are included in the backup).  If you have synced again since this happened this backup has already been overwritten and your photos are lost.  Also, if you restored your phone from the backup of your iPod, rather than just synced, then your  photos are lost too.
    If you have an intact backup that contains these photos, do the following:
    Without connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences.  On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".
    Connect your phone to your computer, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar and select Restore from Backup, choose your most recent backup to restore from.
    When complete, you can go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

    please someone help

    Hi Glenn,
    You need to Authorize your Mom's computer to your iTunes sign on. Sign on to iTunes, then go to Store at the top of the screen, and select Authorize this Computer.
    Then you can download your purchases from your iTunes library by going to the iTunes Store (the one in the sidebar), Music, and then under Quick Links, Purchased.
    Once the Purchased window comes up, select "Not on this Computer", and then select All Songs. Your purchased songs will display with a cloud next to them, and you can download them selectively or "Download All" (lower right-hand corner).
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • I downloaded Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone. Worked well until I had to recharge my phone. Now disappearred from my iPhone but shows in Tones when phone sync'd. How do I get to show back as default Ringtone

    I downloaded a Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone.Worked well until I had to recharge my phone.The Ringtone has now disappeared from my iPhone and I'm left with just the Ringtones that come standard with iPhone 6. I sync'd my phone and it shows in the Tones folder. How do I get the Ringtone back as a default Ringtone in my iPhone 6. Quite frustrating!!

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • I just bought a song and my ipod shuffle will not play it.. how do i get my money back from the song??, I just bought a song and my ipod shuffle will not play it.. how do i get my money back from the song??

    I just bought a song and my ipod shuffle will not play it.. how do i get my money back from the song??, I just bought a song and my ipod shuffle will not play it.. how do i get my money back from the song??

    Assuming you bought the song at the iTunes Store, you can go here
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    and follow one of the "paths" to get what you need or to an Apple customer support employee.  One path is to click Contact Support at the bottom of the list of choices, and use the Express Lane.
    The iTunes app also has a way to report a problem with a purchase.  Select iTunes Store in the sidebar (of the iTunes window).  Toward the upper right corner, click on your Apple ID.  This gets you to your Account Information screen.  Find Purchase History and click See All.  On that screen, you can select a specific purchase with that problem, and Report a Problem.
    If you want to try to figure out WHY that song does not play on your iPod shuffle, please post back...

  • I bought the Tiger woods 12 game for my ipad and also paid the 19.99 for the $2M. It has crashed my ipad a few times and when it restarted last time, it had no history of my progress or the $2M. How do I get my history back

    I bought the Tiger woods 12 game for my ipad and also paid the 19.99 for the $2M. It has crashed my ipad a few times and when it restarted last time, it had no history of my progress or the $2M. How do I get my history back or my money back for the game and the in-game expenses?

    The only one that can issue a PUK code is a carrier, which you've already made clear you don't have.
    If itunes does not recognise your ipad that may be another issue. What version OS is on your computer and what steps did you follow to uninstall itunes and then reiinstall itunes on your computer?
    And, do you at least see the sidebar on the left hand side of itunes?

  • How do i get my contacts back? they have just dissapeared?!

    how do i get my contacts back, i  just looked at my phone, didnt touch anything and they had just dussapeared! i didnt have a single one left and i dont have a clue how to get them back?!

    Hi sfuentes,
    You need to check iCloud to see if they are actually there. Go to iCloud.com and sign in and then look at your Contacts there to see if the old ones are still showing on iCloud.
    If they are not, then you can either re-enter them while you are on iCloud.com, or you can restore your device from the backup where you saved them:

  • I have just sought  to update my lightroom and am now unable to access the develop function and get a note stating that I have reduced functionality what it this about and how do I get my product back

    I have just sought  to update my lightroom and am now unable to access the develop function and get a note stating that I have reduced functionality what it this about and how do I get my product back

    Hi there
    I have version 5.7 and every time I opened it I was told that updates are available and to click on the icon to access these.  Instead it just took me to the
    adobe page with nowhere visible to update.  I then  sought to download lightroom cc and this is when I could not access the 'develop' section due to reduced
    functionality  It was apparent that my photos had been put in cc but no way to access them unless I wanted to subscribe. 
    I have since remedied the problem as  my original lightroom 5.7 icon is still available on the desktop and have gone back to that.  I do feel that this is a bit
    of a rip off and an unnecessary waste of my time though.
    Thank you for your prompt reply by the way.
    Carlo
