HT2555 Missing the ability to play songs from iPod connected to itunes/ manage music on iPod/ iPhone via iTunes. was available last iTunes version. Please bring back!

In the past I was able to charge my iPhone or iPod while enjoying my music located on either device via the built in speakers on my macbook pro. After i did my upgrade of itunes, I lost that functionality as well as the ability to easily drag and drop music to, or delete from, my iphone/ ipod.
I have so far discovered that if I want to delete from my iphone I can swipe right and delete, nice to have that on the phone, but could I please get it back at my laptop.
I don't keep my music library on my laptop due to limited space, nor do I always have my external connected due to limited usb ports.
please bring this back.
Thank you,

Can't play songs from nano while in iTunes

When my nano is connected to my PowerBook G4, all of the songs on the nano are displayed, but they are grayed-out and I can't play them or add more songs to the nano or anything. Is this how it's supposed to work?
Thanks in advance!

Thats the same way that the mini works/worked... you've set up the iPod to sync with a playlist or your Library and it 'locks' the iPod... If you want to change whats on the iPod you alter the playlist's on your computer that the iPod is sync'd to (just dont delete the songs from your library)... Next time you dock the 'pod it'll update the change in songs.
If you want to have it unlocked you set it up on your computer to not 'auto-update'. The songs then will not be grey-ed out and it works more like a conventinal play list as in you drag and drop onto the iPod icon and delete from the iPod itself.
I think that if you pluged it into someone else's computer you cant play the songs because they don't own them (have the same library). I know you can do that of the full size iPod but not of the Shuffle (it gives you a message about the other computer's library being different and you'll have to wipe your iPod if you want to use the new library) I haven't tried with my mini. There are programs that let you take music off your iPod, but I'm Australia and I don't know if they're legal where you are (technically iPods or even iTunes aren't even legal in Australia)
Dont change the FAT32 format of your nano.

You can use the search on the read only (normal mode) of the PL/SQL Editor. Either through menu or using ctrl F.
The other is still an enhancement and is being tracked.

How can I show album art in the mini player when playing songs from a plugged in iPhone?

How can I show album art in the mini player when playing songs from a plugged in iPhone?
When I play from my phone and switch to the mini player it's always showing the music notes in the thumbnaill. It'd be nice if it could get album art off of the phone.
I'm on iTunes version 11.0.4.4

He @mracole,
it is very nice that you post a solution to complete the library with artwork for album's that do not have an artwork. Your solution perfectly addresses the problem for assigning artwork, BUT this thread is about CHANGING artwork for albums already uploaded into iTunes Match. Just try to replace for example a blue artwork cover for an album with a red one. If you made it in a simple way (without deleting the album from iTunes Match and local changes on the files with an external ID3-Application or 2 or more iTunes libraries on different Mac's) this is the right place to give a solution. I really tried for hours to change the artwork to make them visible in landscape cover flow mode on my iPhone5. In rare cases I made it, but then the covers sometimes where restored to the old onces - exacly how it is mentioned by Starhawk
As long as there is no simple way to change the cover of an iTunes Match stored album (you can change title, artist and so on without hitting "update iTunes Match" over all distributed Library on different devices - this date will be synchronized almost instantly) I considered the behaviour from iTunes as BUGGY! For me the local artwork cache (and if there is any iCloud artwork cache - I don't know) do not interfere with iCloud. Even when I delete the whole local cache (album artwork music - everything) I do not manage to change the artwork.

Restoring from backup will result in the iPod being like it was when the backup was made. If you restore via iTunes, you have to have all the synced media in your iTunes library since those are not included in the iPod backup.

HT4437 can i play songs from my ipad to my airport express and Ihome speaker at the same time?

can i play songs from the ipad to both the airport express and ihome speaker at the same time?

Let's double-check your AX's settings...
To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
AirPort tab
- Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
- Wireless Network: <select your Belkin wireless network>
Music tab
- Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
- Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
- iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
- iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
In iTunes:
iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
- Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

I have an Ipad 3 - 32 gb, and I also have a player piano- Wurlitzer Essex which plays wirelessly from my Ipad thru Airport Express. After doing an update to Ipad last yr, I have had a lot of difficulty in playing songs from the Ipad to my piano. Any idea

I updated my Ipad 3 32 gb about a yr ago. Now I can't play songs from Airport Express to my player piano- Wurlitzer Essex. Any suggestions? I'm Leary about doing a new update because of what fear it did to my Ipad last time.

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Imac won't play songs from my iPhone after I have authorised the computer

Imac won't play songs from my iPhone after I have authorised it

My solution was restoring my iPhone. Techs at Apple couldn't figure out why so I had to do a restore and worked after that. I know it's a pain and you have to reinstall all you stuff, but it worked for me. Hope this helps.

Has the ability to conjoin songs been taken away?

Has the ability to conjoin songs been taken away? On iTunes, I used to be able to have songs I wanted played together, always do just that. Seems like that feature has disappeared. Too bad, that was pretty handy!

OK i've figured out a workaround -- paste from Illutrator into Keynote 09, then copy that from Keynote 09 into Keynote 6.2.
I'm never going to offer to teach people how to use Keynote again though, what an embarassing hack!

MISSING ITUNES SONGS AND HOW CAN YOU PUT SONGS FROM IPOD ONTO ITUNES?

i opened my itunes one day and all 654 of my songs were GONE. the entire itunes was blank, as if it was newly installed. it wasn't.
I have an ipod mini, and that still contains the songs since i did not attach my ipod to my computer when i saw that it was empty. my ipod still has 654 songs. But the problem is, that i wont be able to put new songs if my itunes is blank.
How do you transfer songs from the ipod to the itunes? Usually when you connect the ipod, it automatically updates, so how will i be able to do that. I have new CDs and i want to put some of those songs on my ipod, but i wont be able to do that if my itunes makes my ipod blank. I called apple support but it costs 29 freaking dollars to help me.
Can anyone help?
Windows XP

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..

Suddenly,all my audio is not working. I can play songs from itunes but app audio is gone. What can I do/

I'm not sure what is happening. Suddenly all the audio is missing! I dont have ringtone when I get a call, or for an alarm. I can only play songes from itunes. All the sounds from apps and games are gone too. I have tried a restart, and i guess the next step is a reset. What else can I do?

Is the silent switch on the side of the iphone on?

Getting error message when trying to play songs from library saying original file could not be found

when trying to play songs from library, getting message saying original file could not be found .. my full library all says the same .. can anyone help ?

Hello Ceeclass,
I suggest this article named iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408.
It should help you locate the media that is not playing in the iTunes library.
Take care,

Hi all - any idea how to download songs from an old AOL iTunes account - have updated to Apple ID which is fine for new songs but didn't realise this wouldn't include the old songs. Have a 1st gen ipod with the original purchases on if that helps

....... is there a way for me to get my old music library (which was controlled by my dad's apple ID) onto my new mac, but from that point on, start using my own apple ID for purchases?........
Yes, once the content is in iTunes on your computer, just click it to play and authorise your computer to play it by entering your Dad's ID and password.
Log into your own account and start purchasing your own content which will then be added to the existing content.
