  • How to access iTunes from hard drive

    My laptop has crashed and won't restart. My iTunes library is backed up to an external hard drive. My partner has a laptop with iTunes. How can I access my own library by using her iTunes?

    Hey Mikejl75,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you connect the external HD to the other computer they should be available.
    This article explains how to open iTunes and choose a different iTunes Library.

  • When I tried to log into to itunes today, I got a message that states "cannot access library because it was saved in a newer version." I cannot figure out how to access itunes or restore it.

    I tried opening itunes today and got the message that I cannot access itunes because it was saved in a newer version.I have been using itunes for 10 years and never gotten this. I cannot restore an earlier version...any suggestions?

    Unless you've recently attempted to downgrade iTunes this is probably a sign of a corrupt library file. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

  • How to access iTunes library in time machine after changing corrupt HD_

    Hi,
    have a mini with 2.66GHz Intel Core Duo where several months after installing Mavericks it seemed not to be able to handle it anz longer. Whatever the szmptoms and mz attempts to save the thing, I brought it to the Service Center which finally said the hard drive needed changing.They copied the content onto a new 750GB one, but then found that thez couldnt move the itunes folder. They said I should just retrieve it from my time capsule.
    Back home, time machine says it doesnt have a location set up for time machine, kind of telling me that my mini is not being recognised as my old computer.
    There s threads and sites that tell you how to avoid a full new backup after hd change when you ve managed to copy the data directly. I couldnt find anything about retrieving specific data from the time machine that were not successfully migrated when changing the hd.
    Any pointers, please?
    Thanks,
    H

    Hey,
    no I have not. I was kind of afraid that if I set up time machine, it'll create a new "account" and won't let me access the old backups in time machine. While user name hasn't changed, nor password, it seems that the service center has not copied my "preferences" or "profile" for the lack of a better word. It looks to me that time machine doesn't recognise the mini being the old one.
    i just linked up itunes again and at least through  itunes match I can see my library in icloud. But I don't want to download 130GB from icloud if I have them on my time capsule 10 feet away from the mini...

  • How to access iTunes playlist for iPhoto slideshow?

    In iPhoto 6 when I am setting up a slideshow and click the "Music" button, I am given the option of accessing my full library from iTunes, but my Playlists don't show up anywhere, just the artists' names and individual songs,so I am able to choose just one song for an entire slideshow. How can I access my playlists in the Music settings for iPhoto slideshows?

    I have the same problem, I click the arrows and the list drops but I can only select first tune from , sample, garage band, or library. This happens every time I install an update. In the past deleting iTunes playlist has cured the problem but has not worked this time.

  • How to access itunes store

    I am unable to access the itunes store.  I message pops up stating there is an error that my network connection has timed out.

    Hi Doug, I'm wondering if you know how to solve my problem. Front Row continues to display movies that have been deleted from my machine. I have searched for the files deleted them and restarted. As far as I can tell they no longer are on my iMac. But they still show up in Front Row - very annoying. I don't keep a ton of media on my iMac so I want what is displayed to at least be current.
    Any thoughts on how I can delete that "history" from Front Row.
    Thanks so much in advance.

  • How to access ITune store of another country?

    I'm in the U.S., but I want to access the iTune store in another country. I'm looking to buy some books in my native language. Is it possible to do so?

    Yes, it is possible--if you already have an iTunes account in the second country or you can open one. You usually need a method of payment located in that country such as a bank account or credit card. You usually also have to specify some kind of address in that country. You can then switch back and forth on your iPad between the US account and the other one. It is just a bit awkward, but I do it all the time between my US account and my foreign one.
    So if you don't yet have an iTunes account in that other country, opening one would ve your first step.

  • How to access iTunes Match tunes behind firewall?

    Hello,
    I have successfully enabled iTunes Match and can access my music from my iPhone and iPad from my home network.  However, when I try to access music from my iPhone at work, nothing is downloaded from the cloud.  I strongly suspect that this is due to the relevant IP port being blocked on the company firewall. 
    Can anyone advise which port(s) and protocols are used by iTunes Match to download music from the cloud onto the device (plus any other ports used in negotiating the transfer, etc)?  I need to know this information in order to request that the relevant ports are opened.
    Many thanks,
    Paul

    Well, Apple does normally publish this kind of information - see this help article.  It's a shame they haven't updated it with the information I need!  Sadly, I doubt my IT folks will have the time to research the ports I need - it'll be hard enough persuading them to open up the ports, let alone find them too!
    If anyone from Apple is reading this, it would be most useful if you can provide the port information needed to allow iTunes Match to work over wifi behind a firewall!

  • How to access iTunes after a PC crash

    Recently had my PC crash & IT had to 'wipe' it.  Thus, lost all my iTunes stuff in my documents.  I'm scared to just log back into iTunes since I don't know what I'll find.  I'm assuming all is gone.  Is there any way to retreive what I had on there from the last time I logged on; or something similar?
    Thanks!

    I don't know why it's asking for a 3rd disk.
    +it says I can't because I don't have rights on that PC.+
    For that, click on the store menu and drop down to Authorize Computer. Then try to play a purchased song. It might ask you to log in with your ituens credentials.

  • How to access itunes on my android?

    I subscribed to Apple Match to access music from all my devices and leverage the cloud.  I have a new android phone and I am wondering the best way to access my music.

    ...and, that is what Microsoft said. 
    Fortunately there appears to be an app workaround.  Thanks for the 'help'.

  • Can't access iTunes movies extras on 3.0

    Maybe I'm just missing something, but I can't seem to find out how to access iTunes movie extras in 3.0. It's supposed to be there, but the one movie I have with it doesn't give me any noticeable option to access them.
    What am I missing here?

    Not trying to offend, but if you don't know that any of the things you are suggesting should work then it's not really helpful. I have yet to see anyone who knows Extras to work.
    simply offering advice. at no point did i say it would fix the issue.
    if you had specifically said you had already tried the obvious stuff then i wouldn't have suggested it.

  • How do i access iTunes store through firefox? RIght now it wants to use Interent Explore, but i don't have that working on my computer.

    Try going to settings and then iTunes and App Store and logging out and log back in.  Make sure the music app is closed while doing this and then open it back up after logging back in and see if the icon has returned.
    I'm not sure what you mean, precisely - I opened settings, then I opened "itunes store", then opened "app store", but not sure how to log out, and back in on the phone?  I closed them all down again, but still no radio icon, and when I'm in the store and tap the prompt "go to itunes radio" it just brings me to my albums list on the phone.  Strange. 
    Does this make sense?  I mean, am I explaining things clearly? 
    I appreciate the help, this is a pain in the arse.
