How do you uncheck songs and TV shows in iTunes?

I have iTunes 12.1.0.50. Everytime I try to uncheck a box an exclamation point in a circle pops up. Its extremely frustrating and I can't figure it out.

Hi Ky1017,
The exclamation point symbol next to songs or other media in iTunes means that the application is unable to locate the media file for that item, or it was purchased but not downloaded. This article tells how you can correct the issue -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

How can you shuffle songs in a playlist in itunes 11?

You used to be able to create a playlist, shuffle it, then synch it to your ipod. This was done easily with a shuffle button in the library. In 11 that button is no longer there. How can you do this now?

Your question is clear, but you then go on to say something completely different. I've answered your question "how can (you) shuffle songs in a Playlist in iTunes 11".
In Playlists, click on the "start playing in shuffle mode" icon (that I've ringed). And...
In this next shot (the space you need to watch), you can see the Shuffle icon (ringed in larey lime) is blue, so it's "on", and I've also clicked on the "show me what's coming up next" icon (ringed in red). Study the list of upcoming songs. It's the Playlist we're in, but shuffled:
Hey presto!
Now - if you actually mean something else, such as: "create the Playlist, adjust the order of the songs and then Sync it to the iPod"; then as before, you can drag songs within a Playlist to whatever order you want and Sync the Playlist - as before. I've no idea what the "button" you refer to, looked like. Can you explain?

How do you view films and tv shows?

Simple question I have tonnes of films and TV shows on itunes how do I view them on the iPhone? They do not show up on videos.
The only reason for them not being there could be because they weren't synced but I've re-synced them and still noting. CAn someone help me?!

also, the files need to be iPhone compatible. you can right click on a file and select 'create iPhone version'. i have also used a program called 'videora iPhone 3g converter' available for free from www.videora.com to convert video files to the files needed to play on the iPhone.

Quick question - unchecked songs and videos in the iTunes library

Will these or should these show up in Apple TV ?
Reason I ask is that they are unchecked as they won't all fit on the iPod touch. However, there is no reason why I wouldn't want to listen or watch them through Apple TV.

If they are unchecked in the iTunes library, they won't show up on tv. You should still be able to check them separately for iPod using the devices on the left and sync options across the top. ie. I have some thing unchecked so tv won't list them but I sync those same items to iPad/iPhone by using their individual sync options.
Hope this helps,

How do you delete songs that are in your iTunes?

I have imported many song into my iTunes but i would like to get rid of some of them and i dotn listen to them.
Is there any way of removing them altogether from iTunes or am i stuck with them????

If I'm understanding your question correctly you just want to delete songs from your itunes account. Go into your main music library, hold down the CTRL button on your keyboard, and while doing that, click on any songs that wish to permanently delete. When you've got those highlighted, let go of the CTRL button, right click on any of the highlighted songs, choose delete, and then confirm what you want to do. You can't do this from a playlist. It has to be from the main music library. Hope that's what you're looking for.

How do you remove songs from iPad dowloaded from iTunes store

-

You need to connect to your computer's iTunes and delete them via there. Unless you are in the US you may want to copy them to your computer first (if they are not already there) as currently only US customers can re-download music purchases. You can use File > Transfer Purchases to copy them; and you can delete them via the Music section under the iPad device on the left-hand side of iTunes

How Do I Arrange Songs and Videos Manually?

Hi. How do you arrange songs and videos manually? Can you just click, hold it and put it where you want it on the Song or Video the pane where it's displayed?
Thank you in advance.
Gbu.

The tip below can also be use straight off in iTunes.
First you create a playlist (not Smart Playlist).
Drag in a couple of songs/videos you want for your devices into the list.
Select your playlist under PLAYLISTS on the iTunes left panel.
Click the top left column above the 1,2,3..., it is the column left of Name. (You will see ascending or descending arrow head)
Arrange the list content the way you want it by dragging the songs/video in the list up or down.
Select your device under DEVICE on the left panel in iTunes.
Select Music tab and make sure your new playlist is included for Syncing
Sync.

Can anyone help?

okay, well it has been a long time since i have done this, but i will try to do it to the best of my memory.
uninstall itunes.
then reinstall it.
plug your ipod in.
a box will pop up that says something like would you like to connect your ipod to this library?
click NO.
then, on the sidebar there should be a boldfaced DEVICE sign.
your ipod should show up.
go to summary
then check managely manage my music, and then update.
this means that when you plug your ipod in, you will have to put the music in yourself. this is good because you can pick and choose, and you can delete songs off your ipod if you do not like it anymore. also, you have the ability to play the music on your computer when your ipod is plugged in. hope that helps..

Try resetting you phone by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release. If no change you might need to try syncing all your music and TV shows off your iPhone, then sync them back on (be sure they are in your iTunes library before doing so).

How do you delete videos and songs in iTunes?????

My delete option is in shady light gray font meaning you can't use this option. How do I delete songs and video?? Anyone?? Thanks!!!

If it the delete menu item is greyed out, then you likely do not have write permission for the file/folder/or drive the stuff is stored on?
