I am unable to drage songs from a shared music library between computers. This used to work perfectly until a month ago. I have installed the newest version of Itunes on both computers and have rebooted them, but nothing happens when I try to drag a song to another playlist or another shared folder. Any ideas how to fix this?
Have you:
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If a PC
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

i updated to the newest version of Firefox 0n th 19th of July and since then everytime I start Firefox all I get is a window that reads
Weeks of TRASH = FIREFOX 3.66
All three of my computers have been totally worthless since I upgraded to FF3.66. Each are built/configured differently. Each has a different OS. Each has all the above problems. Crashes constantly, RAM & CPU usage on a Q9650 is always near 100%. After screwing around for days I finally came here and found out that I was among a very large and upset group of users. With the last few upgrade I've had minor problems with my selection of add-ons Firefox disabled them for a later fix. I found a new DL today, 3.67 so I installed it figuring the problem was addressed. After installation of 3.67 it still says it's 3.66??
I went to their site to find help from them and couldn't get anyplace until I came here and read about my problem. Thanks for giving me a clear head so I could find a good solution.
My solution was to remove all Mozilla/Firefox products and then install other browsing options. It felt funny because for the first time in years I had to use Microsoft Internet Explorer to find other options. My computer is problem free and fast as usual now.
I wonder how many other users have abandoned them due to this BS?? I for one will probably stick with my new choices now.
YES, Weeks of TRASH = FIREFOX 3.66 -
just downloaded the newest version of itunes as of 1/31/14 and suddenly after years of my nano 5th gen working fine is rejected by itunes. On top of that it ejects it and will not let it charge. The nano works fine besides and charges via x-box or plug in
I was working through the troubleshooter - looks like there is no driver for the nano.

Moving songs from a shared music library on my laptop to my desktop
I have the music libraries shared. But I cannot drag songs from my laptop music to iTunes in my desktop. Why not? These are not iTunes purchased songs but songs downloaded off internet in flac format, converted to aiff and loaded into iTunes on my laptop. I can play them but I cannot drag them into the desktop library. I want to put them on my iPod, which syncs with the desktop. I guess I'll have to burn them to cd to put them on the desktop. But it seems I should be able to copy from one shared library to another.
I have the music libraries shared.
Just to be clear, there is plain ol' sharing, and then there is "home sharing", the latter being an extension of the former. So, you turn on sharing, and then enable "home sharing", per those other articles I referenced in a prior post.
But if you are technically proficient, as JG said, copying the files using the Mac Finder is the best option. Preserves playlists, rankings, artwork, etc. The iTunes "home sharing" is really well suited for keeping two machines libraries synced and is probably a tad easier, but for that initial copying/moving of a library, doing it at the Mac Finder option is best, if a tad more complicated. -
I hate the newest version of itunes. how do i revert back to an older version?
i cant stand the newest version of itunes. and now i cant figure out how to revert to an older version. i watched the tutorial but i still cant stand it. is there anyway to downgrade back to the way itunes was before this completely different version.
You can get closer to the old look with ctrl-b to turn on the menu bar and ctrl-s to turn on the sidebar, then select Artists from the selection of views across the top.
If you still want to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer fromhere, uninstall iTunes and suppporting 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.

I downloaded the newest version of itunes and ever since I've been having problems. When I connect my iphone to itunes, it will say its synced up, however when i'm trying to add music its just not allowing it to happen.
Also when I try to restore the Iphone or check for updates, It says connect via USB to check for updates or restore. The same with attemting to sync apps
I've reinstalled itunes several times and removed and reinstalled my portable devices. And still nothing. When I first plug the iphone in, it will to that auto play Windows 7 does and allows pictures to be saved onto the PC.
It seems like the syncing is working with some things and now others. Any idea's would be delightful??I feel its more of my sync drivers for itunes/iphone not working if that makes sense. Its not my itunes that stops responding, its more of that if the phone syncs up it fails to anything further.
I've tried sync another iphone to the same itunes and windows autoplayer will allow the photos sorted on the iphone to be saved to the laptop but itunes won't even recongise the device is plugged in.
Although it will charge the battery -
I now have the newest version of iTunes. My iPad is up-to-date as well. When I plug in the USB to my computer, it makes the proper sound, but I do not see the device identified in iTunes and therefore cannot sync it. Instead, it opens to the file location for my iPad. How do I connect iTunes to my iPad? It was working perfectly before I updated iTunes.

I just updated itunes to 10.6.
Windows. Vista. (up to date)
Everything is the library has gone - no apps, music, videos etc.
Playlists have gone.
Everything on the iPhone is still there.
I can't sync because everything will then get deleted from the phone and replaced with the (empty) library.
How can I get it all back to normal?In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

HT2688 How can I "click and drag" songs from one shared library to another?
I have home sharing activated on my mom's computer and mine and before the newest version of itunes, we were able to click and drag songs from one users' library into the other. We are not able to do that now and I wanted to know if there was a way to do this in the newest version of itunes.
I am using a Windows computer first off, not sure if that makes a difference, When you say "click import" where is import. I can not find anything that says "import" to click.

I download a song & then I try to drag it into a playlist & I get a warning "iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, my iPod will be removed from iCloud and will only be available on this computer."
I'm sorry to see that no one has answered this. I'm hoping Apple with reply to my support request, as I'm having the same issue. I really don't want to continue with iCloud at this point.

I was able to drag and drop songs from iTunes in to Garage Band so I could slow them down to learn how to play them. Since the newest version of iTunes came out I no longer can. Is this a feature that I can turn back on? I really would like to continue to utlize that feature because it makes learning to play songs easier. Any help would be appericated.
To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them. -
I have just tried to add a track to an existing playlist - and get the following message - "iCloud playlists canonly contain songs from your iCloud music library" If you continue, playlist will be removed from iCloud andonly be available on this computer". I have tried dragging and dropping, right clicking and adding and pressing the little arrow to add to playlist and all tell me that I cannot do this. What's that all about? I am not signed up to iTunes match and I wasn't aware that iCloud held music libraries?? Someone please help. Thanks SM
I am really surprised that no one has been able to help me with this... Anyhow, I have still got the propblem - although I am definitely NOT using Match. I have been adding to existing play,ist by removing it from icloud (dunno how - but it's an option offered when trying to add to playlist).. Now when I sync iphone that's fine - playlists are good - but when syncing ipad 3 - Nope it's not having it. What to do?

Ever since my last update I have been unable to add songs from my i tunes library onto my i phone. The "add to" button does not appear for me when I connect my i phone. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
Thanks again, Sandra2474. -

What do you see? I am not exactly sure what is the issue. A screen capture or the steps to reproduce would help.
