Imported audiobook and iPhone videos not showing in main library.

Today I imported an Audible book I had downloaded by dragging the files onto the "Library" section of iTunes. The progress bar showed that the files were being imported and the book shows up in a smart playlist in the "Playlist" section but not in the "Books" category of the library. I have checked and the files are exactly where they are supposed to be on my hard drive with this author's other books. A similar thing happened when I imported videos from my iPhone. I had downloaded them from my phone onto my desktop and then dragged them onto the library where the progress bar showed they were imported. They are not in the "Movies" library but when I went to sync them onto my iPad2 they show under the "Movies" tab of the iPad and were successfully synchronized onto my iPad2. I tried quiting iTunes and restarting it but this did not cause them to show up. I then restart the whole computer but still no go.
Any suggestions? I am running iTunes 10.6 (40) on an Intel Core 2 Duo iMac running OSX 10.7.3.
Thanks,
Clayton

Properly tag them in itunes before transferring them over.

  • Just updated iPhone 5 to ios7.  Now when I plug in, iTunes does not download photos, and iPhone is not showing as a hard drive on my computer.  Windows used to have a pop up to download photos, which is no longer there.  iTunes is updated and iCloud isoff

    I also recently installed Norton 360, but that was eliminated via Norton Help.  They remoted in, removed Norton 360 and problem persisted - iPhone did not show on the "Computer" window, and no pop-up to download photos even with no antivirus installed.  Norton help advised to uninstall and reinstall iTunes, which seemed a bit excessive.  Any other fixes I can try before an uninstall and reinstall?

    Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • IPhoto (11) and Aperture videos not showing up in iMovie

    None of the iPhoto (11) and Aperture videos are showing up in iMovie.  I've tried to rebuild the thumbnails - no dice.  I've tried removing the com.apple.iMovie* files from the preferences in my Library and restarting - no dice.  Any other suggestions?  Do I have to somehow export or share these files with iMovie?

    Try trashing the iApps preference file. For instructions, see this post.

  • Mobile purchases (iPad and iPhone) are not showing in PING

    I'm not sure if this is me or the App.
    Today I purchased a fair amount of media on almost every Apple device I own! Some songs on my iPhone, a few TV shows on my iPad and AppleTV as well as some movies and complete albums on my Mac Pro.
    All the purchases from my Mac Pro show in my PING feed, but none of the others do. I thought this might be a sync issue, but even after coming home and synching - the only purchases that are "fed" to my "feed" are those from the Mac Pro (main library).
    Obviously, they are all using the same account and such. The only "odd" thing that happened was that when I went to rent a movie on my AppleTV, it failed and said it had a problem connecting to the iTunes Store - even though I was able to watch previews. A quick sign-out/sign-in solved this and I was able to rent (but it still didn't show in PING).
    Anyone else getting the lack of feed from mobile purchases?

    I purchased an album yesterday on my iPad before I even looked at ping and it showed up on my ping feed. I still can not see ping on my iPad. Has anyone else been able to do so?
    However, it does appear to be capturing my music purchases.

  • Combing two large libraries (over 1.25 TB total) and music will not show up in library but does in media folder. Help?

    I'm a Windows PC user, and I'm currently in the process of combining my 12,000+ song library on my laptop (we'll call it Library A) with a 180,000+ song library (Library B, and yes, one-hundred-and-eighty thousand) onto a new hard drive. I have successfully moved Library A from my laptop onto my new hard drive. The method I have tried so far to move the Library B music into A on the new hard drive is by using the "Add Folder to Library" and selecting only a small portion of the folders in Library B's media folders as not to overload iTunes and to be able to pinpoint problems.
    This worked for a few small iterations but the moment I tried doing half of the "A" artists (alphabetically), most of the music doesn't show up in the library. Some of it doesn't show up in the regular library but in the "Recently Added" playlist, and some don't show up in either. I have even tried adding just single files now and those don't show up at all.
    THEY ALL SHOW UP IN THE MEDIA FOLDER ON THE NEW HARD DRIVE. That is why I think this might be true but I'm not sure: I've heard that it is because iTunes needs to process all the songs before it shows up in the actual library. Is this true? I have waited over an hour for adding about 6,000 songs; half showed up right in the beginning and half haven't yet. When I added about 4,000 just before this, they all showed up without any problems.
    Any help? And is there an easier, error-free way to add this many songs into a new library at once? I'll keep this updated for anyone trying. Thanks in advance!
    I have tried signing out and signing in and that does not work either.

    hey.
    finally somebody with the same problem! i bought a new external drive because i was running out of space and backed up my entire library. then my computer crashed and i wanted to take advantage of a clean drive and not add my whole library back onto my computer. i'd love to be able to access my music folder on the external and have that show up as my library on iTunes when connected...
    i followed all the steps as closely as possible and am pretty confident that my advanced preferences in iTunes are correct, but the library does not show these songs from the external drive. have you had any feedback or figured it out on your own?! i hope so, i'm at a deadend.

  • Bought a movie and it is not showing up in library

    Bought a movie on itunes and does not show up in my library. Is that normal? I was able to watch it on my apple tv

    How did you figure it out?

  • IPad 2 and iPhone 4S not showing in iTunes 11.1.5

    Hi
    This might be a really common problem but searched before posting to avoid duplicating but just tried to put some new music on my iPhone 4S, running 7.1 and films on iPad 2 running same and nothing shows in iTunes v11.1.5. Normally this works over the wifi when they are powering up but even trying direct USB nothing shows. Tried rebooting iMac and Google searching but now totally stuck. I havent tried this for a couple of months due to moving so I dont know the last time it all actually worked as supposed to. Any thing obvious I'm missing?

    A movie rented on an iPhone can only be viewed on an iPhone. If you want to view on TV you need to rent directly on ATV or via computer (and stream using home-sharing)
