    My computer was rebuilt this week and I am in the process of setting up iTunes and have a weird setup issue. The music in my playlists plays but the same song doesn't play from the library. Initially, I opened ITunes while holding down Shift of control key.

    Scratch the post above - the musics that plays in the playlist also plays in the library and that is because i forgot that i imported from the cd yesterday. Basically, I see the rest of my music, but it doesnt' play and tells me it can't locate the file though the location in 'perferences' points to the correct location. Getting iTunes to play after a new computer or rebuild is a headache.

  • Itunes imports cd; but they are all small files, and incomplete.  Itunes plays neither the cd nor the imported songs.  Anyone else faced this issue?

    i've had this happen when the cd is extremely dirty. usually only one or two tracks though, not a whole cd.

  • I've upgraded my pc and now Im getting an error message when Im trying to sync my ipod saying I have two itunes libraries. The library thats there is only showing some songs and it's not uploading songs Ive just bought.

    You seem to have tried everything, and you say it's syncing fine on your Dad's iMac, so I assume, you have also  done a Disk Diagnostic from an earlier post by tt2 and conclude that your iPod Hardisk is good.
    You don't have to use it as a heavy paperweight, the problem is only using your Windows 7 machine for syncing.
    In your troubleshooting steps, did you try to use another High-Speed USB 2.0 port, USB controller resource are very scarce, so if you use other USB devices, while syncing your iPod, it may just freeze.
    Windows have a bad reputation for device conflict, so better don't connect other  USB devices, while syncing, better sync it while disconnected from Internet, stop antivirus just before you go to bed.
    Have a nice day!

  • When I update itunes it deletes the library file, and when I restore that file from the previous libraries or my backup, itunes will run but tell me "the iTunes library file cannot be saved. A folder was specified instead of a file" How do I fix this?

    Hi there Br0x,
    You may want to try rebuilding the iTunes library as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • I had to reinstall iTunes and lost the library, so I used what I had on my hard drive, but I have much more music on my iPod classic than is in the iTunes library. If I synch now will it delete all that extra music from my iPod?

    I recently had to reinstall iTunes on my PC (Windows 7) and lost most of the library. I restored with what I had on my hard drive on the PC, but there is much more music on my iPod classic than is in the iTunes current library. I'm worried that if I synch now it will delete the extra music from my iPod, some of which I don't have available to re-rip etc.. Will this happen, or is it safe to synch more content without losing from the iPod what is already there but not in my iTunes library on the PC?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Are you now using a different username from the one you used prior to migrating? If so that is the reason for the problem. You might, then, give this a try:
    To fix Home folder permissions
    Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder.  At the command line prompt enter or paste the following command line:
    sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
    Press RETURN.  You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed.

  • ITunes not seeing the library on a shared drive

    Greetings,
    I recently upgraded to iTunes 11. I upgraded the application on 3 computers. All computers (2 running Snow Leopard and one running Lion) have been authorized for iTunes and access a networked library. The upgrade was successful and and all computers "see" the correct shared library.
    My problem is with the unit running Lion. That computer has 2 users, myself and my wife. I generally do not use the computer, but I set up all the computers in the home, so I automatically create an account for myself. Early on I created and configured my wife's account to use iTunes.
    Recently, (after upgrading) I decided to configure iTunes for my account on that computer. (My regular computer is older and I need to start using the iPhoto application on her computer, mine has run out of space.) When I tried to run the new iTunes, my account would not "see" the iTunes library.
    Do I need to authorize (to use iTunes) this account, even though my wife's account on this machine was authorized awhile ago?
    Why would my account library be different from her account library (I have confirmed that the library file path is the same.)
    Ultimately I want to be able to use my wife's (newer) computer to sync our (3) iPads. Right now, under my account I am unable to do that.
    Any suggestions?

    I have put the library on an external drive connected by usb to my wireless router.
    what exactly have you put on the external ? the entire iTunes folder or just the iTunes music (or media) folder ?
    On my iMac I can select the itunes folder on the drive in itunes advanced preferences and my music shows up in the itunes window an I can play it. But on my MacbookPro although I can select the folder, nothing shows up in the itunes window.
    this leads me to believe that you consolidated the iMac's library to the external but kept the library files local. pointing iTunes media folder location to a new spot tells iTunes where to put new additions to your library, but not where the current content is.
    what you need to do is to copy the entire iTunes folder to the external, then (on each Mac) launch iTunes while holding the option(⌥) key, click on choose library when prompted, and select the iTunes folder you copied to the external.
    note only one Mac at a time can access the library !

  • How can I get the songs in my playlists to play in the order listed?

    I have an iPod touch gen. 4 that I got two months ago. According to iTunes, the firmware is up to date. I have created many playlists, and I always start playing songs at the top of the list. However, the next song it plays (after the first one) is never the second song in the list. I created my playlists using iTunes.

    Thanks!
    At first I didn't understand your reply; I didn't know about the additional audio controls (that are hidden by default) or that there was a Shuffle icon in them. I had only seen the Shuffle choice at the top of the playlist. I think shuffle must have been turned on by default; I didn't turn it on. I found that it's not necessary to turn on Repeat in the Now Playing screen to turn off shuffling, though.
    So if other readers have this problem, do this:
    Play a song in your playlist.
    Tap the display once in the Now Playing screen (it's either the album artwork or the default graphic) to display the additional audio controls.
    Tap the the Shuffle icon on the right if it's blue (indicating shuffle is turned on). It will turn gray (indicating shuffle is turned off).
    Your playlist will now play in order.

  • Stop adding that I play into the library

    Hi there,
    When I browse the net, it seems that I'm the only one with this request ... but all my friends want to too ... any way .. here is my request:
    I don't want to let iTunes *add anything that I play* (with iTunes) in my library!
    It's impossible to have a clean library with that!
    I don't know the best solution ... have a complete rescan at every start or on demand, or a question "would you add this into your library", or ... don't know
    Thanks for all
    Regards

    Ok .. thanks you for all your answers!
    I'll close this thread with just a little conclusion:
    When I listen tunes that are not directly buyed on iTunes, +by default+ iTunes open them. If I listen 6 versions of a tune, and add only one to the library, so all of them will be in the library (I've listened to them) ...
    And it's the same with radios (not them given by apple) since iTunes open them too by default.
    by the way, someone knows how to make Quicktime the default player for radios? (.pls)
    Thanks again, and excuse my english

  • Sharing iTunes Libraries - does the library location matter?

    (Reposting to correct section...)
    I have iTunes installed on several (Windows) machines on my local network and have enabled sharing for each of them.
    One of them (the one with the main library, alas) doesn't appear and doesn't see the others. It seems that the problem may be that the music library on this machine is not in the default location (c:\documents and settings\username\My Documents/My Music/iTunes (etc). That's the only substantive difference among the machines and installations, so when I set up a new machine, I tried putting the iTunes library somewhere else. When I did that, I couldn't see any other shared libraries and no other machines could see this new one. But when I changed that library to the "standard" location, it was visible and that machine could see the other libraries.
    Can anyone confirm if this is the case or if there is something else I should be looking at? I'd rather not move the library, but I will if necessary. Seems like a strange restriction.

    Sorry, didn't notice I had posted in the wrong section. Will repost. In reply to the 2nd reply, I'm reasonably certain there aren't any networking or firewall issues because all these machines are on my local net behind my hardware router. All the other networking I do among the among the machines works with no problems. The only IP port forwarding I do is from the router inbound so shouldn't effect communication among the machines (though as far as I know I'm not using any ports that iTunes uses).

  • New iTunes auto-ejects the library drive

    Just installed the brand new iTunes, and every time I open it, it ejects the portable drive on which the iTunes Library is stored. I keep all my music, podcasts etc. on a LaCie Little Book of 320GB connected with USB. I have never had a problem like this with iTunes before. The drive fails to reappear on the desktop, and I have to restart the computer to get it back. Once I start up iTunes again it ejects again after a minute or two.
    I wish I could get the old iTunes back.
    Can anybody solve this one for me please?
    Thanks

    Just in case anybody having a similar problem reads my post, I think I have solved the problem.
    The external hard drive was almost full, and I hadn't noticed that iTunes was in the process of trying to download a large podcast video. There wasn't enough room on the external drive, so it resolved the problem by ejecting itself!
    I could hardly blame it could I!
    I deleted several GB of old and unwanted podcasts, and there's now well over 30GB of space. ITunes has been working without a problem ever since.
    Sometimes solutions are staring you in the face!
    Cheers

  • ITunes 6 - Splitting the library over two drives

    Hi,
    I have a powerbook with a 60gb hardrive. Currently my music library is around 25gb. To add to the "damage" I have recently trasfered around 15gb of music from my old desctop to the external drive. Now the external drive has more then enough space for the music but the internal does not. Is it possible to split the library such that some songs are on the internal and some on the external, and if so will it cause iTunes to perform worse?
    Thanks for your help,

  • My question is Itunes related.  How do you prevent a playlist saved in Itunes from alphabetizing the song list created. I wanted to keep the original order, and somehow everything was alphabetized without requesting it.

    My question is Itunes related.  How do you prevent a playlist saved in Itunes from automatically alphabetizing the song list.   I had a specific order of songs that I wanted, and Itunes somehow automatically alphabetized them.  Is there a way to turn that feature off, and/or get them back to the original order?   I also noticed that once a playlist has been created, I cannot manually changed the order of the songs from my desktop..  Any suggestions?

    That's just the sort order. It's displaying the media alphabetically because you have clicked on the NAME column near the top of the iTunes window.
    Click on the little triangle above the column of numbers (usually on the far left side of the main iTunes window) and the media will sort in the order in which you added each item to the playlist.
    You can easily reorder songs within a playlist: Click and HOLD on the song you wish to move, then drag-and-drop it wherever you like.

  • How can i transfer the entire itunes program (not the library,but the actual program itself) from one cpu to another? I have the older version that has the slide feature. I can't stand the new itunes.

    HOW CAN I TRANSFER THE ITUNES PROGRAM ( NOT THE LIBRARIES,BUT THE ACTUALLY EXE PROGRAM ) FROM ONE CPU TO ANOTHER. I CAN'T
    STAND THE NEW ITUNES. I WANT TO TRANSFER MY OLD ONE THAT STILL HAS THE SLIDER FEATURE. THANKS

    Sounds like you've already installed iTunes 11 and are now trying to downgrade. To do so successfully you will also need access to a pre-upgrade copy of your library as set out below...
    The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
    In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    With iTunes 11.0.3 you can enable artwork in the Songs & List views from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view.
    If you still feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.
