How to find recently added songs in my library

I have added 3 CDs to my iTunes library on my computer. The music can be found in "Recently Added" Playlist, but NOT in my Library.  How do I make sure that the music makes its way to the Library. Also, even though I have iCloud activated I cannot find the music on my iPad.

Something has gone wrong with the index of the Music playlist. Download the current iTunes Free Single of the Week. I know it sounds odd, but it should fix the problem.
If that doesn't work close iTunes and delete the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder, then start iTunes again. It should run a consistency check when it starts up.

  • Finding "Recently Added" song in iTunes library

    My question really is, "How do I find a recently recorded song in my iTunes Library with MAIL?" To be more specific, I'll make a recording that I want to E-mail NOW. The problem is, I can't find it with the MAIL "Paperclip". I have been dragging the sound file to the desktop, where MAIL can easily find it, but it seems to me that there must be another way. Is there?

    I use a Smart Playlist in iTunes for this:

  • Can't find recently purchased songs in iTunes Library

    I've recently purchased a song when it downloaded I couldn't find it in the Music Library or the Purchased Library. But when I tried to buy the song again, a message appears saying that I had already purchased the song. Can someone help me with this issue?

    Hi - you are not alone in this. I've had the same problem, and apparently so have others. I'm also following the discussion:

  • How do I delete the recently added songs "List is getting to large

    I am unable to find ,how to delete the "RECENTLY Added" songs after having  moved them to the various ctegories I selected

    The Recently Added playlists in iTunes is a Smart Playlist.  So in order to remove songs from this list you need to either wait until the song is no longer qualified to be listed in the Smart Playlist (more on that in a minute) or you need to adjust the rules out the Smart Playlist accordingly.
    Either way though, this playlist hardly takes up any available hard drive space as it is just a list of pointers to your actual song files and not duplicate entries or anything of the sort that would be eating up significant amounts of drive space.
    If you'd like, you can edit the rules out this Smart Playlist in iTunes to contain a smaller set of tracks or change the Date Added rule to only keep songs from a smaller time frame to help reduce the size of this playlist.  To do this, right->click on the Recently Added playlist and select Edit Smart Playlist. A new window show pop up.
    In this window, you can the Date Added rule so that it contains tracks that were added in the past X (X being a number of your choice) number of days, weeks, or months.  You can also enable the Limit to X (X again being a number of your choice) rule to contain a smaller or larger number of items, GBs, MBs, hours, or minutes. To enable it, simply place a tick mark next to the rule.
    When you are finished editing the playlist, click the OK button. If you did make any changes, the list should update dynamically immediately and will continue to do so as time goes on.

  • How do I get my ipod to play a playlist from reverse order? (Start with recently added song instead of first added)

    How do I get my ipod to play a playlist from reverse order? (Start with recently added song instead of first added)
    So I'm adding new songs to a very old playlist? Is there anyway that when I add them, they automatically go to top of playlist? How about getting one song to the top of a playlist.  That drag to arrange function is very annoying because it is slow and the playlist does not scroll up very well on a PC.

    Make a new playlist by pressing the little plus button at the very lower left corner of iTunes. An new playlist will appear in the Source pane called "untitled playlist". While the name is highlighted, you can change it to whatever you want. Drag all of the tracks from all the albums that comprise a single book to that playlist. Sync that playlist to your iPod.

    Figured it out, the tunes were still in the library, just not in the order I added them. Thanks

  • Album art and recently added songs not syncing to ipod.

    They've synced before, but now when I've given album art to every song it doesn't sync. Nor have recently added songs. Nowhere to be seen on my ipod.
    Then, on top of that, no matter how many times I've restored, authorized, and played around with my account, it randomly doesn't sync songs that I've bought from Itunes.
    Help would be so, so much appreciated.

    Are you syncing all music or selected playlists?

  • Modifying recently added song list

    Oh, I just discovered how to create a smart playlist. Cool.

  • HT201272 I recently added my entire music library to the "cloud" for an annual fee. Now I can't listen to anything unless I have an internet connection. I want my library back on my laptop, the whole thing (original laptop got erased). How do I do this?

    Hello ggjsa,
    Congratulations on your new laptop!  I understand that you have copied your old iTunes Library to your new computer, but you are still not seeing the music.  I recommend reviewing Part 5 in the section titled "External drive" in the following article:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    If you are still having trouble transferring the library using this method, you may want to try using the Home Sharing method in the article. 
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Syncing only recently added songs

    Is there a way to sync my ipod and only add the newly downloaded song from my playlist, but keep the old songs on the ipod? When I tried to sync only "checked songs", they were the only ones on the ipod. All the song that were there were deleted.

    I always have a backwards way to do things--someone else comes along with something much more efficient--but as long as your iPod is set up to be manually updated--I would just make a quick playlist of the recently added songs and drag it on top of the iPod. That way--everything else should stay intact and the new songs will get added. Beware, this is a playlist--so if you're searching by playlists or adding by playlists--make sure you've named this list something that you can easily identify!

  • IN THE MOBILE APP: RECENTLY ADDED SONGS SHOULD BE ABLE TO LAND AT THE TOP OF ANY PLAYLIST

    IN THE MOBILE APP: RECENTLY ADDED SONGS SHOULD BE ABLE TO LAND AT THE TOP OF ANY PLAYLISTS BY DEFAULT IN SETTINGS. NOT ON THE BOTTOM AS ITS BEEN SINCE THE START IN 2008.
    IT'S POSSIBLE TO DO SO ON A COMPUTER BUT I DOES NOT TRANCEND TO MOBILE DEVICES SUCH AS IPHONE. WHY???
    IT BUGS ME EVERYTIME I'M FORCED TO SCROLL DOWN THROUGH 100s OF SONGS IN A PLAYLIST JUST TO PLAY THE MOST RECENTLY ADDED SONG IN THE SAME PLAYLIST.

    Updated: 2015-07-20Hello and thanks for the feedback!
    A similar idea has also been suggested here:

    Add your kudos and comments there please! ;)
    Note that you can also sort your playlist by recently added to play the freshest track first.

  • How do you delete duplicate songs in your library without having to delete each song individually??

    Not a good idea! The "show duplicates" feature shows "all" duplicate tracks, but you only want to delete the "extra" copies, not the "originals".
    I've written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates. See this  thread for background, including how to delete the extra tracks manually if you prefer.
