Imported songs not showing in library...??

Help please!  I've imported a few CDs and they are showing in my recently added playlist but not appearing in my library.  How can I fix this so they show in my library?

Something may have gone wrong with the index of the Music playlist. Download the current iTunes Free Single of the Week. I know it sounds odd, but it should fix the problem.
If that doesn't work close iTunes and delete the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder, then start iTunes again. It should run a consistency check when it starts up.

  • Imported CD songs not showing in library

    I imported a CD into itunes...it says they imported but none of the songs are showing in my itunes library. I tried dragging them over from the CD and it says that they are already there. Any idea why I can not see them in the itunes library? This is very frustrating. The same thing occured with a movie I just imported.

  • Importing songs not showing up in itunes

    I have about 200gb of music on an external hd. I import songs into itunes (it shows adding files) but I can not find the songs in itune. Or it will import 1-5 songs out of the 15 or so that were in the folder I was attempting to import.
    I tried to import all 200gb of music but only about 1/4 is showing up in itunes.
    I have even draged and dropped songs from ext. hd into itunes using my computer window next to itunes. It shows a + sign next to song as it is added, but I can not find it in itunes then.
    Any body have this problem?
    Any suggestions on how to remedy?
    Much Thanks!!!

    I followed the instructions for transfering a library
    from Windows to a Mac and so far it's gone fine. Now
    I'm trying to get the songs to show up in iTunes with
    no success. I dragged the library from the iPod to
    the music folder under documents, on the mac. It's
    still not showing up in iTunes. I tried importing
    these songs from that location and it brings up the
    error message: "The file "Itunes Library.itl" cannot
    be imported because it does not appear to be a valid
    exported file" Any help would be greatly, greatly
    appreciated. If you need any clarity because I know
    it's jumbled, just let me know.

    I tried the suggestions of other users to import from an external drive with the same result as you. I resolved this by instead selecting add to library and then browsing to the itunes folder on the external drive. It then copied all the contents to iTunes on the Mac.

  • Imported songs not showing up in iTunes

    Just imported a CD. They are not in my iTunes library, but the files are there in the directory on the back end. I even watched iCloud upload them, but the tracks are not showing up in iTunes even when searching for them. Any ideas?!?!?

    I have this same problem. Import songs from CD or from a MP3 Folder or if I add a movie, nothing shows up in itunes.
    If I do a search of the media folder in iTunes I can see it there. Even My Apple TV can see the uploads and play them.
    This all seems to have started after the latest update to Lion.
    I have downloaded iTunes again and reinstalled it but it made no difference.
    iTunes is importing ok it's just not displaying the newly imported items :-(

    Good! Sometimes you need to apply a little brute force.

  • Purchased songs not showing in library

    I have purchased and downloaded songs from I Tunes store onto my laptop. They show in Puchased library but do not show in Music library
    I have tried dragging them to Music library to no avail
    Anybody help?

    Make sure that the songs you purchased aren't in the music library for real. Close iTunes and restart the computer open it back up again and see if this works...if not tell me and give me time to think and I'll get right back with you.

  • Albums not showing in library after import

    Just install iTunes 10.4.1.10 on Win XP (have same issue on Win 7) it auto added my music folder but its all messed up due to filenames etc so I deleted everything from library with the intention of manually importing everything.  Albums are not showing in library after going File -> Add Folder to Library...
    Any ideas?

    Note that Pause and Resume can be found in the right-click context menu of an item (toolbar drop-down list).
    Do you have the .part file or only the (final) file with a byte count of 0 bytes?
    If the .part file and doesn't have the expected file size (2 GB) is missing then you won't be able to resume this download anyway. You can check the temp folder as well.

  • HT1473 Problem importing music; music imported not showing in library

    ITunes is really becoming a pain in the ***. I'm really ****** right now. Three days ago my new album purchase could not be located after it downloaded. I had to spend more time trying to make it work. Cd imported today does not show in library.

    Thanks. I've installed the back up disc, but itunes doesn't ask me if I want to restore. Even though itunes is my default player, a screen appears asking If want to play using real player, or media player, or do nothing. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release].

  • Why am I unable to import songs from a shared library now?

    why am I unable to import songs from a shared library now? there is no show menu anymore?

    What do you see? I am not exactly sure what is the issue. A screen capture or the steps to reproduce would help.

  • My imports are not showing up in Photos or Events

    My imports are not showing up in Photos or Events.  The only place I can see them is in the "Last Import" folder.  When I try to re-import them it pops up the Duplicate warning which means they are in the library but not showing up.  Any ideas?

    If they are in last import then they should be there - check the date on one of the photos in last import and look for that date in your library - last import, photos and events are simply different ways of viewing the same photos - if they are there in one view they are there in all views - somewhere
    Select a pic in Last Import and Right-Click on it. Choose 'Show Event' from the menu. This will bring you to the Event containing the photo.
    If the photo is in Last Import, then the photo is in the Library somewhere,  just not where you expect it to be. Usual causes: the date on your camera is wrong, and so the date on the photo is wrong, or the sorting of the Events has changed (View Menu -> Sort Events)

  • Previously purchased songs NOT showing as purchased in the itunes store. I dont want to re-buy something I already have. How can I get this fixed?

    Ive got quite a few songs. I dont want to rebuy one ive already got. Why are my songs not showing as purchased in store like they once did? How do I solve this issue?

    Hi,
    Go to song view, add iCloud status. To do this, go to menu > view > view options and tick box. This will tell you what has been matched, uploaded, purchased, duplicate, ineligible or waiting. As the scan is stalling with one track remaining, find this track - it is likely to have a icloud status of waiting.
    Suggest that you delete from library then select update iTunes Match. Once match completes try readding track - by the way how. Big is the track and whatever is its media type?

  • Importing Songs Into Your iTunes Library

    Does importing songs into your iTunes Library (from either CDs or via iTunes Store download) slow down your computer? If one has thousands of songs in his/her library, does the overall speed of the computer slow down, including when running applications?

    My library is fairly large, although not as large as others have claimed, but my 10,000+ tracks have not made any sort of noticeable slowdown on my computer that I can detect.
    I think where you get a lot of slow downs with large library is if you have a large number of Smart Playlists with live updating so that when you play stuff or change ratings or whatever in your library, the computer has to do a lot of rule comparisons for several SPLs against a large number of tracks, so you can get slow downs between songs or when you change stuff.
    But if you don't get overly carried away with the SPLs, you should be fine.

  • ARQ: Role Import does not show roles in the preview

    Dear All,
    Recently I upgraded our system to SP#14. Now when I try to import roles from NWBC->AM->Role Mass Maintenance->Role Import, it does not show roles in preview. Also, it does not import the roles specified. (either a range or full name of the role). It does not even give any error message.
    I implemented SAP note#1897975 Role import does not show roles in the preview.
    Still facing the same problem. Has any one faced this problem? Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Faisal

    HI Faisal,
    This note(1897975) you have to implement in Plug-in System, try to check the same once and let me know if it resolves our issue.
