    I can not pull any file from mediathek to playlist since iTunes 10.5 . I get an forbidden sign in black. I see my ipod on itunes but can not pull (iOS 5.0) (ipod touch). And I can not synchronise...
    On other PC all is working.

    Tried to turn Avast off but the problem still there.
    I created a Playlist to my iphone using the musics already on it and the next try i could add new files to this playlist (and to the iphone) but if I try to add it the way I used to do (directly to the iphone) I still get the prohibited symbol.
    This is ok, since I can use it the way I want (so far, i didn´t try yet to add other files like PDF or CBR files) and find a way to add the files i want, but I cannot help to think how wierd this is...
    I just don´t like the way apple choosed to make possible transfer files to my device. I really like my iphone but my friends with Nokia and Android have an easier life on that matter...

  • I SET UP THE HOME SHARING ON MY COMPUTER, AND i CAN STREAM MY PHOTOS AND SEE ALL THE VIDEOS AND LISTEN SONGS IN MY ITUNES, BUT CAN NOT DO HOME SHARING, ON THE TV, ALWAYS SHOWS "TURN ON HOME SHARING ON YOUR OMPUTER WITH YOUR ID WHICH I DID BUT NOTHING HELP

    I just bought my apple tv yesterday and SET UP THE HOME SHARING ON MY COMPUTER, I CAN STREAM MY PHOTOS AND SEE ALL THE VIDEOS AND LISTEN SONGS IN MY ITUNES, BUT CAN NOT DO HOME SHARING, ON THE TV, ALWAYS SHOWS "TURN ON HOME SHARING ON YOUR OMPUTER WITH YOUR ID WHICH I DID BUT NOTHING HAPPEN. WHAT'S WRONG? WHAT SHALL I DO NOW?

    I have found with AppleTV that it is the IPV6 on the computer you want to access is the problem.  The issue is that Homegroup on Win 7 or Win 8 requires IPV6 to work, but AppleTV won't work with IPV6.  (So maybe double check you have IPV6 turned off)
    So you have to make a choice - Homegroup or AppleTV.... but you can't have both, until Apple brings ATV up to date. (crazy that it does not recognise IPV6 - c'mon Apple!)
    You can set up sharing individually in Win 7 or 8 and have the ATV access files that way.
    Having said that, there is always the exception.. I have an old HP home server running Win8 and it services ATV - but is part of the Homegroup... have no idea why it works on both, but no other machine on the home network will talk to both ATV and Homegroup at the same time!

  • I am using a PC with Windows Vista. I've been using iTunes on this computer for over 6 years. Suddenly I can not play any music on iTunes. I tried deleting and reinstalling iTunes however it did not fix the issue. Can anyone please help?

    Suddenly, as of two weeks ago, iTunes will no longer play any music. I tried reinstalling but this did not work either. I have a PC with Windows Vista. Has anyone else experienced this problem and fixed it?

    Yes, I just tried playing a 10-second mp3 file I acquired from The Oatmeal and didn't once pass my external hard disk.  It's a simple, monotone, high-frequency sound, but I get the same results: VLC's UI is still responsive, but its functionality freezes up, i.e. the buttons are still animated, and the menu still works, but there's no sound, the progress bar doesn't move, and the file doesn't play.

  • Ipod classic latest version not recognized in itunes also downloaded 400 plus songs, can play them in itunes but can not download on to ipod any idears /

    latest 6th gen 160 gb ipod not recognized in itunes, have done all the checks, has been confirmed in itunes sync, Also down loaded 470 new songs into itunes,Can play them,but can not down load back into my ipod, any thoughts? Question,

    See my answer under "iPod 160GB not recognized". The steps I took to fix this problem include completely uninstalling and then re-installing iTunes 9.0.2, restoring my iPod to factory settings while in disk mode, following the Apple instructions of repairing the permissions (outlined in my other post), and even after all that my iPod "crashes" after syncing more than 300 or so songs. I hope that Apple will come out with a real fix for this problem soon. Best of luck.

  • TS3833 iPhone 3G - iTunes ringtones can not play on this device.

    I have an iPhone 3G.  I reset the phone and now I cannot play the previews for ringtones.  A message says:  this device can not play tones.  The iOS has to be 5 or???
    Also when I go to setting, then general.  I can not see the field whcih shows the operating system. It has been erased.
    Can you help me?

    when you bought it, did 2 versions download? For a bunch of shows I bought recently, I got 2 versions - a HD version and a standard (SD) version. To make room, I moved the files off my computer. When I wanted to watch the individual episodes on my iphone, I'd move the SD version back to the computer, and sync it with the iphone. After the recent upgrades - snow leopard, itunes 9, iphone 3.1, something got broken. When I would transfer the SD versions to my computer to sync with the iphone, for some reason something would rename the files with a (HD) tag at the end of the file name (even though they were the SD versions). Removing that tag in finder was all I needed to do to make it work. Odd.

  • I can not play the music on my ipod on itunes

    the ipod is working fine the only thing is when I canect to itunes the ipod appear in itunes but I can not play any song
    I do not know if the reason is becouse I have the two ipods in the same camputer.

    is your ipod set to auto sync? if it is, you cant listen to those songs on your computer. if you want to listen to songs that are on your ipod on your computer, set it to manually sync or whatever. that should work.

  • ITunes music will play on iTunes but will not play in my iPod

    I downloaded music from iTunes. It plays on my computer and shows up on my iPod. However, it will not play. When I attempt to play the iPod says "now playing" skipping all 25 tracks. The music is in the purchased, artist, music, etc. folders.
    Any thoughts?

  • My old computer crashed completly. I have a new computer now. It is a HP with internet 8 on it. I downloaded itunes but can not sync itunes to the new computer. Every time I try I get a warning that if i proceed then all my stuff on the phone will erased.

    I recently bought a new computer becouse my old computer crashed. Now I can not sync my itunes account. I get an error when I try. It says that itunes will erase my phone content and replace with what is on the phone. I do not want to lose all my stuff so what do I do?

    This is how it works.
    Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

  • Can see songs and albums in iTunes but can't play them

    Recently upgraded to OS 10.8, itunes 11.1.2, and OS7 on ipad and iphone.  I noticed only purchased songs were showing up now on OS7 devices and trying a variety of settings in tunes sync (sync all songs, sync only checked ones, etc) still wouldn't send over my privately owned (copied from my own CDs) songs. 
    Then in itunes on Mac, tried to play a song.  The album icon and song list are all there, but no song plays when clicking.
    My itunes folder is on an external drive.  All song and albums are there when I look in finder window.  The library is correctly addressed in itunes preferences.  I consolidated the library.
    In all cases, it looks like all songs are there in itunes, but nothing plays, and nothing syncs over to ipad or ipone.  Any ideas?

  • Just purchased a new PC. I transferred entire library to cloud, my itunes will open, I can see my library but will not play any music or download it to either my devices

    I just purchased a new PC. I transferred my entire LIbrary to the Cloud, when I redownloaded my music onto my new PC, the itunes will not play music.

    You need to download the music to your computer from icloud or copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    Download past purchases - Support - Apple
    Not sure what you mean by "transferred my entire LIbrary to the Cloud"

  • TS1967 Can not play any music in iTunes

    I am running Mac OSX 10.7.5 and the latest version of iTunes 11.0.2 I cannot run any of my music. If I click on a song to play it nothing happens. This happens whether I'm in the iTunes store or off my own music library. Is it a compatability issue? It worked fine before I upgraded iTunes.

    When I try to play a song though it just starts skipping to the next song and then the next one.  Unless there was a song local on the machine it just keeps skipping to the next and to the next.
    I think this may be a clue to the problem. When you purchased the MBA did you restore any of your personal data from a prior backup? In particular, did you restore any prior data in the Music folder?
    Or, did you simply launch iTunes and enable iTunes Match?

    Trying to connect to itunes store using windows 7 professional.  I have downloaded and re-installed so many times and still I can not connect.  The help function is saying I am not connected to the internet. Error message 11222.  I can not update my iphone with new software either.  It says I do not have internet connection.  Unfortunately I am not very computer savvy so no idea what operating system is.
