I have music on my iPad, but I can no longer find it in itunes on my mac.  How do I get those "CDs" back in my library?  I cannot listen to them on my Mac or put them on another device!

Thanks a lot!  After I sent the above post, I tried that.  It worked a little.  Some of the ones that I Purchased would not come up.  I followed instructions from Apple about going to Purchased and downloading them again, but ran into another problem.  They are greyed on my Mac and they will not download again.  It says to click on the iCloud beside them, but there is not one visible.  iCloud is set up, at least I thought it was.  I am sure there is a simple explanation, but I am missing it!

  • Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past and have tried a hard reset but it can no longer find the printer.

    Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past. I have tried a hard reset but it still cannot find the printer.

    In addition to rebooting the router and the iPad, I would reset the printer as well. Unplug the printer from power and do the same with the router. Leave the router unplugged for about 30 seconds. Plug the router in first and let it totally start up, plug the printer in again, and then reboot/reset the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that doesn't work, you can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. Your WiFi passwords, location services, device preferences all have to be re-entered. You will not lose any data or media whatsoever.

  • I my harddrive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    The external drive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    Are the photos you want to send back to your mac on your iPad, iPod, iPhone saved to the camera roll? If you have photos in other albums (not camera roll) share them to the camera roll.
    Then connect your device via USB and lauch iPhoto. You will see your device as a camera in iPhoto.  Import those photos like you would import from a camera.

    When what is clicked?
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • During an update my iphone wiped all the music I had bought on itunes on my phone and i hadnt backed it up, how do i get those songs back?! help!!!

    help! during an update it somehow went terribly wrong and restored my phone back to factory settings! I didnt lose my photos or contacts but have lost all the songs i bought via my itunes app! I admit I havent backed up recently, but how do i get those songs back?!

    Contact iTunes support, plead your case, and request they add the lost music to your download queue. Be nice, as they are under no obligation to do so:

  • I subscribed for itunes imatch - it works perfectly on my i-pad and iPhone - however on my macbook - my iTunes can no longer find my songs - i don't know how to make it look to the cloud to play my music

    i subscribed for itunes imatch - it works perfectly on my i-pad and iPhone - however on my macbook - my iTunes can no longer find my songs - i don't know how to make it look to the cloud to play my music - i think it keeps trying to find on the external harddrive where i used to keep my music

    Of course iTunes is looking for the music on the external HDD. Enabling iTunes Match does not magically change the location of the iTunes library to the cloud.
    To play the music either plug the external HDD back into your computer or create a new, empty library to use for streaming the iTM content. The latter can be accomplished by holding down the Option key when launching iTunes, choosing "create library" then enabling iTunes Match on the new library. DO NOT have iTunes scan your HDD for music.

    Hi,
    don´t be worry, this would not be a problem.
    You have to take the same Aplle ID on both devices, then you can sync them via iTunes by using all universal apps on each device, create playlists, albums and all the things you need and sync it, no problem...

  • My mac book pro with lion finds my wireless printer on start up, but subsequently can no longer find it unless I restart my laptop. any suggestions?

    my ma bookk pro fimds my kodak wireless printer on start up, but after a period of time, can no longer find it and I get a connection error. I have to restart for it to connect again to the printer. I have unistalled and reinstalled the printer software, but the problem keeps recurring. Any suggestions?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • I purchased a song in the past and now I am trying to buy the album but I can no longer find the album.

    i Purchased Aaliyah -rock the boat a while back and now I can no longer find that album in iTunes along with some other good songs by her. The name of the album is Aaliyah

    It's possible that the rights-holder has removed the album, and her other albums, from your country's store. Is the album available on other music download purchase sites that you have access to ? Or is the CD available ?

  • Exclamation marks next to songs, but I can no longer find them on my harddrive

    I have a Win 7 laptop and an old 30GB ipod.  Both iTunes and iPod software are up to date.  I download songs from CDs that I own and they appear in the proper iTunes folder.  However, after I sync my ipod, many of these songs suddenly get an exclamation mark next to them in iTunes and I can no longer find these songs on my hard drive anywhere.  In some cases, only a couple songs from a CD get the exclamation mark and disappear and in other cases it is the entire CD.  Why is this happening and where are the songs that I downloaded?  These is happening over and over.  What is the fix?

    This means iTunes can't find the location of the files. Try these articles:

  • I have recently got an iPad 2, I can no longer view/edit my Sony .ARW files in iPhoto, why?

    I suspect that the problem is associated with iPad 2 and my sychronisation of iPhoto events to that device.
    I can no longer a single photo such that I can edit it, what is going wrong here?
    Actually I have closed down iPhoto and reopened, strange, I can now access and edit the photos!
