ITunes 10.0 and Devices
I, like many have upgraded to 10.0. Since then I can see my iphone(3Gs w/4.0.2) listed as a device but when I click on it itunes _does not open_ it. It will set on the previous display. If I right click on it I can see eject,sync,transfer,bkup,restore and reset. If I click on the arrow I can see what is currently loaded on my phone. This is all good stuff but I cannot see anything else!!
Am I the only one?? I would love to hear of a fix.
Thanks:)
I'm also affected by this bug in exactly the same way as you.
Some users have had success by closing iTunes, enetering (on OS 10.9) settings --> network --> edit locations, then create a new location with the same wifi/network settings. Then restarting iTunes.
Others have had some success by editing settings --> iCloud --> de-selecting keychain
neither of these fixes have worked for me.
It appears that the iPad can "see" iTunes running on my iMac because when I open settings --> general --> 'iTunes wifi sync', "sync now" is greyed out if iTunes is not running. When iTunes is started, "sync now" is enabled but just doesn't work. Nor does the iPad appear in iTunes.

HT4913 iTunes match subscription and device association
I have recently purchased an itunes match subscription and I was able to associate it with my new ipad mini, but when I try to turn on itunes match on my iphone 5 and original ipad it won't work. I get an error message that says that I do not have a subscription to Itunes match. It references that I need to go to my computer. When I log on to my itunes account to manage devices, I can see the ipad mini, but not the phone original ipad. Any thoughts on why I can't get this to work? The iphone is latest iOS, but original ipad is only at iOS 5.1 (highest I can go with this ipad, but still compatible with itunes match).
Kate,
You may want to try signing out of the existing Apple IDs (as set up on the iPhone and iPad), then signing them back in.
iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account

If the two devices are still misbehaving, you might need to turn them off then back on, or reset them as necessary.

If the issue you are experiencing is not resolved, you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources - https://expresslane.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action.

Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start. You have insufficent privileges to start system svc. Help?
Download Itunes from Apple.com, not from within Itunes.
Redo the install, following the below procedure. However, when you re-install Itunes, right click and run the install as administrator. For Win 7, you have to hold down the cntrl and shift keys when you right click and then "run as administrator" will be an option.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Vista, Win 7 & later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Okay. We have three Ipads in our house with only one Itunes account. When I go into imessaging and facetime on each of the devices, it wants to start switching my wife's cell phone and then the three emails associated with each Ipad to the contact information for all of the Ipads. As of this morning, only the imessaging and facetime are turned on my wife's iphone and ipad. My kids imessaging and facetime is turned off. Do you really have to have an itunes account for each device to make then work??? Any help would be very much appreciated.
RyanThere is only one solution. Each user must have their own separate user account. All of their respective data would be contained in their separate user accounts. This also means each will have a separate iTunes Library. If you all use the same third-party apps, then each will have to purchase their own copies under their own Apple IDs. Some data sharing is possible. See:

I have a MacBook Pro 17" computer, and I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 phone, how do I get iTunes on my Android device?
You don't get the itunes program on your Android devise at all.
You would need to read the directions for your phone to learn how to put music on it. -

Hello!
I have a problem connecting my Ipod Shuffle 2nd generation to my Windows 8 based laptop. The computer doesn't recognize the Ipod and issues an error message saying 'USB device not recognized'. I tried uninstaling ITunes(latest version) and all other Apple software and reinstaling it back again, checked my USB hubs in the 'Device Manager' section of the Control Panel, you name it.
I could really use some help solving this.
I've turned to the troubleshooting section in Apple Support but it has nothing concerning situations in wich the device isn't even shown in the 'My Computer' folder.
Help a brother out, will you???Found a solution in another forum http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-63733-ipod-not-detected-on-computer (a few posts down).
It was for an IPOD so you can see those details in the link.
Found how to reset a shuffle and inserted it into these instructions - did not have to follow his last steps.
- Turn off computer.
- Plug Shuffle into usb.
- Then you must reset your shuffle
To reset iPod shuffle:
Disconnect iPod shuffle from the computer (if connected).
Move the switch on the iPod shuffle to the OFF position. Note that when iPod shuffle is off, the green stripe by the switch is not visible
Disconnect iPod shuffle from the computer (if connected).
Move the switch on the iPod shuffle to the OFF position. Note that when iPod shuffle is off, the green stripe by the switch is not visible.
- Start computer and it should install the usb driver for the ipod automatically.
- Your i pod will say do not unplug so don't. then open itunes and it will be there.
I did not have to do these thing below – did not get error message and shuffle was displayed in Itunes. / LMc
Just remember to not only eject ipod from itunes but stop usb.
Go to the program icons near the clock and right click the usb icon and "safely remove hardware" will appear and click it.
Stop it and select "apple ipod". -
Questions on managing iTunes content and devices?
I've been a subpar iTunes user for several years now and I figured it was time that I just started asking some questions in order to get help. I love all my different iOS devices, but at times it seems that it's extremely difficult to manage content amongst the devices as well as my different computers (I use a PC for personal use and a Macbook for work.) My wife also has her own iOS device (Which we just use my AppleID on to keep all purchases under a single account) and a PC. So it seems like a constant juggling act to keep my content properly managed.
The new iCloud stuff looks like a wonderful step in the right direction for helping manage content on my different devices, but I'm still a little curious about the best way to go about storing, sharing, and accessing content. So all that being said, here's my current setup and questions.
First of all, I have my iTunes Media Folder on set to save everything to a Network Attached Storage I have at my home. This is the version of iTunes that I run off of my PC, which I guess I would say is my primary source of iTunes usage and how I generally choose to manage my content and move things to and from my iOS devices. Everything works out pretty well until I try and manage my content on any other computer.
Creating a consistent storage location on a NAS
My first basic question is, "Is it possible to have multiple versions of iTunes on different computers point to the same Media Folder?" If I could have all of my iTunes folders work off the same Media Folder that would probably help cut down on the confusion. However, I'm not exactly sure if this is just a matter of giving them all the same path to use or if there's additional permissions and things that must be setup. Also, what happens if I decide to purchase content through iTunes and I'm not connected to my home network, so the content cannot be saved to my NAS? Does it save to a default location that I can just later move to my NAS?
Home Sharing
What exactly is "Home Sharing"? I've read a little bit about it but I'm not 100% sure what it actually gets me since I already have a NAS. Is this what I need for setting up multiple computers to share the same Media Folder? Do I need this at all since my data is located on a central NAS on our home network?
Syncing devices from multiple computers
One of the biggest headaches I get with trying to manage content across multiple computers and devices is that I have to use one specific computer to Sync and Manage content on a device. For example, I have my iPhone synced to iTunes on my PC so I can edit and manage music on that device from my PC. But if I'm at work on my Macbook and decide I want to make some changes to Music I have there, then I have to sync my device to the Macbook, effectively wiping all the current content on my phone. Is there no way around this?
iCloud Questions
I have content that I've purchased on my iPhone or iPad and want to download it from the cloud to my PC or Macbook, or my wife's computer. Do I have to "repurchase" this content in order to do that, or does it just download directly for free since I've already purchased it before?
I apologize if any of these are "silly" questions.

Everything is updated!! iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro... All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices. iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time! What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!
Why does iTunes SUCK??
1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
Please tell me I am not the only one!!
...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
Very appreciated,

I have 2 iphones in the family and want to use itunes match on both devices, unfortunately my husband has his own itunes acct and when i change on his phone to my itunes acct it states that the email is already in use, any help on how to get the itunes match to go onto both devices, thanks
"Method Three
Create a separate iTunes library for each device. Note:It is important that you make a new iTunes Library file. Do not justmake a copy of your existing iTunes Library file. If iTunes is open,quit it.
This one may work. I searched and searched on the website for something like this, I guess I just didn't search correctly, lol. I will give this a try later. My daughter is not be back for a few weekends, therefore I will have to try the Method 3 when she comes back for the weekend again. "
I forgot to mention that she has a PC at her house that she also syncs to. Would this cause a problem. I am already getting that pop up saying that the iPod is synced to another library (even though she is signed in with her Apple ID to iTunes) and gives the pop up to Cancel, Erase & Sync, or Transfer Purchases. My question arose because she clicked on "Erase & Sync" by mistake when she plugged the iPod to her PC the first time. When the iPod was purchased and setup, it was synced to my PC first. When she went home, she hooked it up to her PC and then she erased it by accident. I was able to restore all the missing stuff yesterday using my PC. However, even after doing that it still told me the next time I hooked it up last night that the iPod was currently synced with a different library. Hopefully, you can help me understand all this. She wants to sync her iPod and also backup her iPod at both places. Both PCs have been authorised. Thanks -
I've begun ripping my blu rays to digital format so I can store them on my NAS and access them from any device. Movies without subtitles work great, I simply use MP4 passthrough and all is well. I'm having issues with videos that have forced subtitles. I'm assuming I need to mux the video, audo and subtitle streams into an .M4V. I'm not sure how to do this. What format must the subtitle be in? SRT, AAS? Will Subler work?
My intention is that have the subtitles show no matter what. I don't want to fiddle with enabling them and disabling them. I want to watch the movie in itunes or an iOS device and have the subtitles show up without doing anything.cmanion wrote:
They are blu rays purchased before the advent of digital copies being included. What do you suggest I do? Repurchase the movies I already own?
We cannot help you on this board. What you ask is illegal to do in the United States. As Lyssa says, "You will have to search elsewhere for help." However, purchasing the movies from the iTunes Store is a legal option. -
Hi, I have an iTunes account on my laptop set up to work with my old iPod. I now have an iPad and new iPod but set up under a different account- can I put all the songs from my iTunes onto the new devices. Thanks.
Yes
Put all the music on one computer, make sure it is authorized for all accounts, sync. -
I would like to delete the new device and just sync the iPhone 4 with all the info that was on the 3GS.
You can get the photos by importing them from your 3GS to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and then syncing them back to your iPhone 4. Your music should already be in your iTunes library if you have been syncing the 3GS with your computer so all you would need to do is select to Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync your iPhone 4 to transfer it to you new phone. But there is no way for iTunes to see your iPhone 4 as your iPhone 3GS; it will see it as a different device no matter what you do.

I have old email address's I used for iTune music purchases and cannot change password on several old accounts. Now some of the music I purchased I can not download and authorize it on my device. What can I do password security does not match my birthdate on two of the accounts. Apple can not send me email with a password authorization on several current accounts that I have with them. How can I contact Apple with this annoying problem I can not fix.
settings - app/iTunes store - sign out and sign back in with your new id.
Note - if your older apps needs an update it will use your old apple id and password, as Apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase it.
You can't merge apple id. -
My son got an iPhone and wanted his own iTunes account. Now his computer died, and he wants to connect to his iTunes account on my computer. When it asks to sync the computer, a message comes up and we're afraid either his or my library are going to be wiped out by trying to do this. Is it possible to use 1 computer with 2 different iTunes accounts and devices without wiping out one of the libraries? Thanks for any info.
If the content was not originally purchased/synced to the device from your computer it will erase and replace the content from the device with that of the computer. If you have content that you want to backup you can transfer purchases http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848 check this link out
