HT1386 Cant sync apps between itunes library and computer...apps show up but grayed out

When trying to sync apps from itunes to ipad they appear grayed out and you can't select them. *confused

1.  on the pad, settings, general / restrictions.  make sure that is not on.
2. if you have multiple devices syncing from the same computer, make sure you have the correct on indicated in the leftside navigation pane of I tunes.

  • Not all albums are syncing with between itunes match and iphone 5.. WHY!!!

    Not all albums are syncing with between itunes match and iphone 5.. WHY!!!

    First, disable iTunes Match on the iPhone. Open the Music app and let the content clear out. Now, in iTunes, disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key (Shift for Windows). Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, and re-open it. Turn iTM back on and let it complete it's scan. The songs that are "waiting" ought to get converted to "purchased," "uploaded" or "matched." Once the scan is complete re-enable the service on the iPhone.

  • Discrepancy between iTunes library and synced iPod song list

    I am sure there must be a really simple answer to this, but heck if I know.
    My iTunes library on my PC has 1614 songs, yet despite my iPod being sync'd, my song list shows only 1588 songs.
    So, 25 tracks have not loaded - why is this? Surely there should be exactly the same number of tracks in my song list?
    H E L P - its driving me mad.

    I have a 24 track difference between my itunes library and my song list in my synced ipod. Really bugging me as I don't know why - have ensured all songs are checked, but still no answer. Where are the missing 24 songs?
    Surely someone out there must know the answer - HELP!

  • HT1386 Re: syncing iPod to iTunes Library on new computer.

    I've just migrated to a new pc (Windows 8), have installed my iTunes Library and the iTunes software. Music plays on my pc. BUT I can't get my iPod to sync. I have tried different USB ports.  It used to sync automatically once I established the connection.  When I push the "sync" button, all I get in the window at the top is the legend "Starting sync" and the horizontal barber pole (static) for a few moments, and then nothing.
    Btw, it outrages me that Apple wants to charge $19 (plus tax) for a consultation!

    When all of your synced media like apps and music are in the iTunes libary of the new computer backup the iPod to iTunes and restore from that backup

    Reason: you can only sync all media with one iTunes libary/computer.

  • Swipe between iTunes library and iTunes store

    I don't know how I did it...but the other day I was swiping between my iTunes library and the store.  I find a song, swipe to my library and see if I had it, swipe back to the store to buy or look at another song. 
    How did I do this??
    Thanks.

    You can do this by double-clicking on the store to open it in a separate window.  Use Lion's mission control and drag the store window to it's own desktop.  Then you can swipe back and forth between them with the magic mouse or a trackpad using a two-fingered swipe.

  • I have two ipods that cannot sync to my macbook because i had to replace the hard drive in the mac.  the ipods say they are synced to another itunes library and can't be synced with my new itunes account.  help!

    i have two ipods that are synced to my previous itunes account that was on my macbook before the hard drive crashed.  i can't sync with the new itunes on the new hard drive - help!

    Why did you start a new account?
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your computer to your new hard drive.
    Ipod will sync to one itunes library at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content from the ipod.

  • Cant sync iPhone because itunes says this computer is no longer authorised

    whenever i try to sync my iPhone 5s to my computer (iMac.. the older/thick one), it backs up and works fine until it starts to download music and apps. it says that it cant sync to my iPhone because the computer is no longer authorised for the purchases made on the phone, it gave me the option to authorise (which it already was) so i did, still didn't work, so i reauthorised and reauthorised a couple of times. i first started to notice the problem when i updates to IOS 8 (iTunes v12.0.1.26) so i don't know whats at fault. i have a 4th-gen ipod touch (6.1.2) that syncs without any problems. i dont know what to do anymore , i just want my new songs on my phone. is there any way i can fix this because having to carry my ipod and my phone everywhere is getting quite tedious.

    Hi GArveladze11,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re not able to sync your iPhone 5S with your iMac because of repeated alerts to authorize the computer. Take a look at the article linked below, it provides more information about the alert message that you’re seeing and possible resolutions.

  • Delete file from iTunes Library and Computer

    I convert a lot of my own TV shows for playback on iPad/iPod touch. Once I have watched the show I delete it from my library.
    It used to be that when I deleted from my library, I would get a message asking if I wanted to delete from library only or from library AND computer. It does not ask me this anymore.
    I went into preferences and clicked on "reset all warnings" but that didn't fix the problem. Any tips on how to restore this functionality?

    What I mean is I don't want an extra copy of the file made when I add something to my library. I already have the file where I want it.
    I did try your suggestion, and just as I suspected, it made an extra copy in a different location on my computer, then when I deleted it, yes, it asked me if I wanted to move it to the recycle bin, but it only deleted the copy, not the original.
    I'm marking your response as helpful, as I can use it as a workaround if I can't find a better solution, but I have never done it this way before. I've always had full control over which folders my shows were in, and only one copy. And when I've deleted, it has deleted the original file, not just a copy of it.

  • Toggling Between iTunes Library and Music Store

    Does anyone know if there's a way to toggle between the Music Store and the most recent view in your iTunes Library? For example, if my current Library view is of a particular Artist, then I go to the Music Store, when I return to the Library, the display defaults to All Genres, All Artists, All Albums.

    Try double clicking the music store to open it in a new window. You can do the same for any playlists etc. In seperate windows, they won't affect one another.

  • Discrepancy between iTunes Library and iTunes music library in Finder

    iTunes is reporting that I have 2313 files @ 13.96GB
    but when im looking at the iTunes music folder within Finder(username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music, Finder reports that I've got 4400 files @ 20.13GB
    iTunes is set to control my library at that folder.
    What's going on here...?
    This is all under osx 10.6.2 and iTunes 9.0.2
    Thanks

    The stats at the bottom of the screen when you look at the Music section of your library are just for music, there are separate totals for Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, iTunes U, Audiobooks, Applications & Ringtones. When you look at *iTunes\iTunes Music* in Finder this will contain all the files from all the sections. It is also possible that you have at some point deleted files from iTunes without deleting them from the hard disk or manually placed files within the iTunes Music folders and then neglected to import them into iTunes. If you have any *iTunes LPs* these will count as a single file in the iTunes library but typically contain 100s of individual files (html, artwork, scripts etc.). I don't know about Macs, but on a PC if the library is also accessed by Windows Media Player then there can be artwork placed in album folders adding to the file count shown in the operating system.
    In short there is no reason to expect the numbers & sizes to match. That said, it is still possible that there are files in your folders that are not in your library, and vice versa. The following from Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes should help you check for any discpreancies:
    Music Folder Files Not Added v2.0 - Lists files in your music folder that are not in your library.
    List MIAs v1.2 - Lists files in your library that are not in your music folder.

  • Switching iTunes library and computer

    My itunes is taking too long making the switch to a new computer for my ipod touch. The message "waiting for changes to be applied" has been displaying in the status window for several hours. I've tried stopping and starting again. itunes just keeps making me wait each time for hours. Is this normal? Do I really have to wait this long to switch computers and authorize a new itunes library for syncing?

  • Sharing between itunes accounts and computer/iphone

    My husband and I each have our own itunes accounts. I want to put some of his music (from his itunes library on the computer) into my iphone music library. We can't figure it out. Homesharing doesn't appear to be working and drag/drop doesn't work either.
    We both have the latest version of the software installed on our respective devices (iphone 4s has 5.1 and computer has 10.6.1.7)

    Many thanks.
    We will need to get his music into your iTunes in order to sync it to the phone. Your jump drive technique is a good way of doing it, but home sharing is also an option (assuming both computers are on the same wireless network).
    If some of the music you want to shift from him was bought from the iTunes Store, I'd set up the Home Share using the Apple ID that the music was bought with.
    See the following document for instructions on how to turn on Home Sharing on both computers:
    iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer
    Have iTunes open on both computers. On your computer, select his library in the iTunes source pane as per the following screenshot:
    You can pick and choose which items you want to copy across. (Select the items and then click Import down in the bottom right hand corner.) If you import a lot, the transfer is going to take a while.
    If you do things in several batches over an extended period of time, it might be easiest for you to have "Items not in my library" displaying in the Show menu rather than "All items". (That will cut down on the possibility of accidentally importing duplicates.)
    Once you've got the items in your library, you'll be able to sync them to your phone.

  • Getting iTunes Movies into different iTunes library and Computer?

    My older daughter has grown up and moved out. We have a bunch of movies that over the years we bought in iTunes together under my account. She would like to transfer/copy some of them into her own iTunes library / computer so she can load them on her own iPad and iPhone to enjoy. Is there a way to do this?

    Authorize her computer to your account and just copy over the files.

  • Deleting from iTunes Library and Computer

    I have alot of music in my library that I would also like to remove from my computer. I know that when you select a song and press the delete key that i prompt pops up asking you if you want to delete the song from your computer as well as your library...for some reason i think i may have clicked the "don't show me this again tab" and now when i delete a song from my library it only gets deleted from the library. If I want to delete it from my computer I have to go and search for the file in the folder where it is stored...this is a royal pain in the butt because sometimes music files aren't labeled conveniently. So my question is : Is there some way that I can turn that prompt back on so that I can delete songs from my computer and iTunes library alot easier and faster? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    Do you keep your songs in the iTunes Music folder or do you use another folder of your own making? iTunes will delete songs from the library and move them to Trash only if they are in the iTunes Music folder. (iTunes will ask if you want to trash the file if this is the case, it doesn't trash it automatically). If your songs are kept outside of this folder then deleting only removes the reference to the song from the library and you have to go to the folder they are located in to trash the file itself.
