IMovie will not recognize my iTunes library-any suggestions?

Trying to import music from iTunes library (set up as iTunes Match) into iMovie, but when I click music icon on the right to import and prompt iTunes/Sound effect options-nothing comes up. The sound effects are there, but my iTunes library is not. It says to 'Open iTunes to Populate this list' at the bottom right of the menu.
I've updated iTunes as well as iMovie, hoping to resolve. But no luck.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

As far as I can tell iMovie only sees music that you've downloaded to your computer. Identify it and then go to iTunes and redownload the song and it should be solved.

  • I got a new iMac and my ATV will not recognize my iTunes Library in Homesharing.  My account ID is correct on both devices.

    I got a new iMAC for Christmas.  I've turned on Homesharing on it.  It will not appear in my Apple TV list which alsohas homesharing turned on.  I am using the same Apple ID on both devices.  My old windows computer showed up but not the newiMAC even though it syas it is authorized.  Any ideas?

    Verify that your iMac is on the same network as the apple TV.  System Preferences > Network > Highlight your connection on the left > IP Address on the right.
    On the Apple TV, Settings > General > About > IP address.  They should both something like 192.168.1.xxx  The first 3 nodes the same.  If one is wired and one wireless you may have more than one local network.

  • Imovie no longer recognizes my itunes library

    I just put a new HDD in my 2008 MBP it works fine. but iMovie no longer recognizes my itunes library. It says i need to upgrade to itunes 6 or later. I have ver. 10 any suggestions?

    You don't say if your mac or windows, but mac itunes has library file and music file - click on library and you get the app window, click on music file and you'll find the playable files which are the ones you have to link to is you're getting the ! mark - I copied the whole itunes file to an external firewire 800 HD and linked itunes to that folder and no problems - but a couple weeks later I started to get the ! mark and when I went looking in the music file, there were no longer there... a couple weeks later and I've gone from 4 songs to over a hundred missing - the ones from my cd's I could load again but some of them were from itunes downloads and they won't address this problem but have no problem telling me I have to pay to download again - But they are all still on my ipod, just not in my computer.

  • Apple TV will stream music but will not connect to iTunes library to stream movies or podcasts.  During the unsuccessful connection process, iTunes becomes unresponsive and must be forced to quit.

    Apple TV 3 will stream music via Home Sharing from iTunes on Mac running 10.6.8 but will not connect to iTunes library to stream movies or podcasts.  When trying to connect, iTunes becomes unresponsive and must be forced to quit.  ATV will stream movies purchased through the ATV but not those purchased through or ripped/copied onto the Mac.  I've tried fixes suggested for similar problems (rebooting ATV and Mac, signing out then back into iTunes Store) to no success.  Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    This is the most bogus example of Apple rip-off EVER.  They do not advertise this *feature* and yet expect people to invest in an Apple ECOSYSTEM?  My experience with Apple TV using a central media "server" (a dedicated Mac Mini) has been atrocious.  I continually get "Cannot connect..." messages and with typical Apple "it just works" mentality, there is no reason stated.  I HATE APPLE TV and I HATE APPLE.  Peddle your crapple somewhere else.

    I am reading on this site about the error I am getting and it wants me to change some files that I am not comfortable messing with. Mainly because it is like a foreign language. Will the store do this for me or tell me if it is neccessary?

  • HT4314 Game center will not recognize that I play any game center games.

    Game center will not recognize that I play any game center games. Also, my friends can interact with my game saves, but I cannot, because they do not appear in the "friends/neighbors" window when I play. What can I do to fix this?

    Try this  - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • I have iMovie 09. I just erased my external hard drive, but it is still formatted for the mac. However, iMovie will not recognize the hard drive. It shows the only hard drive available is the computers. How do I get the external hard drive to show up?

    I have iMovie 09. I just erased my external hard drive, but it is still formatted for the mac. However, iMovie will not recognize the hard drive. It shows the only hard drive available is the computers. How do I get the external hard drive to show up?

    In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
    Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
    Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.
    If it does contain data...

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Just purchased call of duty 4 on my macbook pro 10.6.8 4GB but will not launch or open. Any suggestions, please.

    just purchased call of duty 4 on my macbook pro 10.6.8 4GB but will not launch or open. Any suggestions, please.

    Installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo will reinstall the App Store for you. Restart your Mac after the combo is installed. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.8. Then try launching the app.
    if that doesn't help, try contacting the developer of the app >  http://support.aspyr.com/home

  • I can not connect to iTunes store, any suggestions?

    A window popped up asking me to type in my Apple ID password to get downloads, but it was showing an old username/email address. When I went to Settings/App Store to change it all I get is "Can not connect to iTunes". Any suggestions on what to do?
    I tried turning off and back on, I was connected to my laptop for power and I was on WiFi.

    Apparently when I updated my software this morning it logged me off my Wifi for some reason (even though the wifi icon at the top of the screen indicated it was using it), I logged back in and could connect.

    Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing keep on Charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to start.
