I click on a song i want to hera but, it plays another song i diden't want to hear?
When I click on a tune i want to hear, a diffren't song will play?
Correct me if I'm wrong but what I understand is the following:
The media exists solely on the external drive.
iTunes was pointed to the external drive where the media exists.
The external drive was then disconnected.
If that is the case, do you see where the problem is?
If that is not the case, please ellaborate on whatever steps I have missed.

How do I delete a song from my Itunes music library? I follow the instructions and right click on the song and then select "delete" as specified and my info claims at that point it will ask if I want to send this song to my trash bin, but, instead, when I try to delete the song, I get another window asking "are you sure you want to hide this song in iCloud? I don't even know what iCloud is?!?!? I don't want iCloud and just want to get rid of old songs!!! HELP ME!!!
Short answer:
Click Hide Song(s), it is what you wanted to do...
Long answer:
iTunes in the Cloud is a feature of your iTunes store account that allows you to redownload or stream your past purchases. When you delete a purchased track that is downloaded to your computer (like the first one shown here) you are asked if you also want to hide the song from iCloud. This would remove it from the computer and also stop it showing up with the iCloud symbol as the other tracks from that album (which are not downloaded) do.
If a track shows with the cloud symbol you can play (stream) it by double-clicking the title, or click the cloud symbol to download a local copy to your library. If you try to delete one of these tracks you get a slightly different message confirming that you want to hide the track. Clicking hide will remove the listing from the library and any other device that shows your past purchases.
Should you want to retrieve any item hidden in this way at a later date use Store > View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Hidden Purchases > Manage.
To hide all your previous purchases that are not downloaded to your computer use Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

I got this message when I click on a song: you are about to start playback. Do you want to clear the 722 songs previously added to up next?

"You are about to start playback. Do you want to clear the 312 songs previously added to Up Next?" how do you remove this from your ITunes?
You can remove "this" (display of the Up Next list) by going to View > Hide Up Next in iTunes' menu.

would it delete 312 songs if you clck clear songs?
No. It would simply remove them from the Up Next list. -
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.

When I click on a song iTunes tells me it is not authorized to play this song but when I authorize it, it tells me the computer is already authorized. What do I do to play the songs?
Delete the song from your Itunes music list, then redownload it, Itunes will ask you if you if you want to download it for free. This seems to be the fix for my problems.

Since I upgraded to the latest IOS, I cannot get Itunes to rate my songs. My ratings determine which playlist my songs are entered into. For two days, I've tried to rate the last 4 songs I downloaded but when I click on the songs to bring up the 5 little dots, nothing happens when I click on the applicable dot. Normally I get the stars but not now. Can someone tell me what's going on and what I have to do to make rating a song work? Thank you!

When I click on some songs in my itunes library it says the file is not detected. If i hook up my ipod will i loose the songs already on it or will it retore the files to itunes?
Before to attach your ipod.... try to find the file where you put your music.... click on that song.... itunes will ask you if you want to locate it.... from there you have to find the song(s) that is one of the folders in your PC.

ITunes shuts down when I click on a song
When I click my iTunes library after my iPod backs up it freezes and shuts down. I manually sync my songs by dragging them across to my iPod but tonight it keeps wanting to verify my iPod, then backs it up. And then when I click on a song to drag it over it just freezes and shuts down. What do I do?!
It also shuts down automatically without the iPod connected so it's just an iTunes problem that whenever I click on a song it will freeze and terminate

How can you watch itunes purchased movies on apple tv. A click on to movies then into purchase thn a click on a movie i want to watch then my apple tv box light starts going on and off plus the screen is blank

With the newest Airport firmware (7.6.1), it seems I should be able to do this.
Really? I need to check that out!
You should certainly be able to add content by reference to itunes from such a disk (even before the update) - so long as itunes knows the location of the file (set Preferences not to copy to local library when adding the media) it will stream it to AppleTV if the disk is available.
I hope you're right, but I'd be surprised if current Extremes can be upgarded to provide a full Home Sharing service - marvellous if they can but I'd be surprised as i've long said we need an Apple media server either based on TC or AE to do this kind of thing.

I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them. I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone. I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added. So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them? It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

Every time I click on a song it pops up and says "itunes has stopped working"
This issue just started randomly in the past few days, I didn't upload any new music. So it can't be a corrupt file. Itunes launches fine, it's when i click on a song (any song) that it immediately pops up with the error message and promptly shuts down.
I uninstalled, and re-installed quick time. and it fixed all my problems. (:
