How do i sync my itunes library with ATV gen1?

I am trying to sync my itunes library with my Generation 1 Apple TV. The directions I found on the Apple site said to go to the Summary tab under Apple TV in Devices in itunes. No such tab exists, only Setting and Photos. Can anyone help?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I'm not sure where you are looking but the first step to sync your library is performed from the Apple TV. Settings/Computers/connect to iTunes and follow on screen instructions. You can then go to iTunes on your mac/pc, select the device and set up your sync options.

How can I sync my iTunes library with Sansa Rhapsody?

I'm trying to sync my iTunes library with a Sansa Rhapsody, but the music player is not being recognized by iTunes. Is there a way to use iTunes with the Sansa?

Although I suppose it's possible that there are some third party plug-ins (about which I know nothing), iTunes "out of the box" will not recognize a Sansa. It's worth noting that the Sansa doesn't support even unprotected AAC.
I have one myself and they're not bad, other than the AAC thing.

I just purchased a Macbook, iPad, and iPhone and I am trying to sync my iTunes library from my Windows laptop. How can I sync my iTunes library to all devices?

I just recently purchased a MacBook Pro (13 inch with Retina display), an iPad Air 2, and an iPhone 6 plus. Before these purchases, I was using a Windows 7 laptop to manage my iTunes library and iTunes purchases. I am in need of syncing my iTunes library on my iPod classic (160 GB) with all of my new Apple devices. How can I sync my iTunes library with all of my new devices?

Devices can only sync to one library at a time. You can, however, have multiple copies of libraries on different computers though it can be tricky making sure they are always synchronized. You can put your Windows iTunes on your Mac.
Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive. Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes. At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
When this is to a new computer 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.)

Hello Solid Buck,
Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing. It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone.
In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone. I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Another alternative is she can select tracks from your library copy and just add them to her library. Then she does not have to bother with switching between two libraries.

How can I copy my iTunes library with playcount information to a new computer?!?

Hello,
I'm about to get a new computer. I have all my music on a external HD, so I won't have problems preserving my music. But I would like to preserve other information too. Especially the play count information. I think it's interesting how my top 25-most-played looks like, and the play count list I have now, took me 2 years to get.
So my question is: Does anyone know how I can copy my iTunes library with all its information (play count, rating, comments, images, last played date etc.) to a new computer?
Thanks a lot!

Connect the external HDD to the iMac, launch iTunes while holding down the Option key. Choose the option to select library and navigate to the top level folder of the iTunes media on the external. Select it and click OK.

I just would like to connect my iPad to ONE itunes library and at the same time connect my wifes iPad to the SAME itunes library. Can this be done? How? Thanks! Maybe the answer is something really easy like "just connect both to the computer and sync them".
Thanks!

Plug them in and use them.
That is all you need to do.
In the answer from Apple I do not find anything about how the 2 exisiting iTunes accounts will be handled.
They will be handled fine.
All purchases from both iTunes accounts can be sync'd to both/either iPads with no problem.
I have three iTunes accounts (me and two daughters), 3 iPhones, an iPad and a few iPods.
Any/all content can be sync'd to any device, no problems.

How do I sync my iTunes library on my desktop to my laptop

I travel a lot and now have an iPod touch. I LOVE IT and I particularly love that I can download directy to the iPod from the internet - FANTASTIC!!
My issue is that I have the iPod sync'd with my desktop. Now I want to get my laptop in sync so when I travel I can have my library with me but it is telling me I would have to wipe my iPod Touch to sync with this laptop but all my stuff is on my desktop and iPod
I have not been able to find it in my help searches. I am sure there is a way to do this because Apple can't expect me to purchase two sets of all my music.
Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.

Although I can access the songs it is not helpful for my issue. I cannot be connected to the desktop while on the road and some locations I visit do not allow anything but my laptop on site so I cannot use my iPod.
How can I have my iTunes library from my desktop accessible on my laptop when I am travelling?
I waited on hold for over 18 minutes for someone to answer the apple support line and then they wanted me to pay $49 for support on a FREE APPLICATION. It is ridiculous. It is because I wouldn't give them the serial number for my iPod as I continued to tell the guy my question is NOT iPod related......... Can anyone help me?

I regret to say that you need a new computer. That G5, as good as it still is, simply cannot run the required software to be used with the latest iPhones and other software.
