ITunes 9 - Genius shows but no Genius Mixes option...

I am a big fan of my genius play lists and I was really excited for the new genius mixes feature in iTunes 9 but there is nothing showing where the tutorial video shows they should be visible.
In my left menu bar, I have a full listing for Library, Store and a new section for Genius that wasn't there before but instead of having two items in the Genius section, I only have one - the Genius atom icon and the last genius playlist that I created. The second item that is shown on the video tutorial in that section is the boxy looking icon next to Genius mixes but is not visible.
I have shut down the app, restarted my computer. It isn't preventing me from using my iPod or iTunes but is a feature that I want to use!

Click on Store -> Update Genius, the Genius Mixes should pop up after a few moments under Genius on the left. Mine was the same way.

No, your purchases aren't stored on an Apple server that you could access from any computer. You can only download them once. You would have to transfer it to your computer. You can burn your purchases to data DVDs (they won't play in a DVD player) or use an external hard drive.

Downloaded itunes tv shows but says it is wrong format

I have an Touch iPod. I downloaded Dexter season 6. iTunes is telling me it is in the wrong format to play on my Touch. Seasons 1-5 worked fine. Did that change video formats that has obsoleted my Touch? All hardware and QuickTime is up to date.

You should be able to download the SD version by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
The sync to your iPod
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
iTunes: Sync purchased HD videos to iPod or iOS device

How to I unfreeze my iphone 5s with the itunes icon showing...after I downloaded the IOS 8

I installed the IOS 8 update last night and this morning my phone is frozen. The screen has the itunes icon showing but will not allow me to do anything, to include turn the phone off etc.

Hello SEGrady2,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
The display on your iPhone with the iTunes logo and a cord indicates it is in recovery mode, and will need to be restored using iTunes. Please take a look at the support article below for directions on how to resolve this issue.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

ITunes error 13010, but this 'iTunes Library Genius.itdb' file doesn't exist...?

I had to force quit iTunes and since then it won't open again, showing that godawful 13010 error that so many people seem to get. I searched through the forum and everyone keeps saying to delete the file 'iTunes Library Genius.itdb' but I've looked everywhere and that files DOES NOT EXIST on my macbook. How can I fix my iTunes, what's going on?

Oh boy. Ok the answer here is not good. The database that iTunes holds all the song info in is hosed.
First try re-installing iTunes. This has almost no shot of doing anything, but it is worth a try since the next option is a HUGE pain.
When that does not work go with all the song info is hosed. So in your <User>/Music/iTunes folder you need to delete the files listed below if they are there. Then restart iTunes. You are going to have to re-import all of your content since this is deleting all the index information iTunes has about where the files are at.
iTunes Library Genius.itdb
iTunes Library Extras.itdb
iTunes Library.itl
iTunes Music Library.xml

My iPod no longer appears as folder/file in Itunes when connected. Library, genius, playlists, etc. are present, but there is no longer cross reference with the iPod itself. Help!?

I just tried it again and this time a different message showed up "The iPod 'name' cannot be synced. The required folder cannot be found." I have no clue what folder it could be talking about.

I HATE THESE PLAYLISTS - NEVER USE THEM- WASTES MY SCREEN REAL ESTATE..

At the moment it is not possible to disable Genius Playlists on iOS devices. However, these forums are user-to-user forums and no Apple employees participate here. You would be better to submit your polite feedback via the Apple Feedback page: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

ITunes in English but Genius is in French

iTunes menus are in English.
Language pref is set to English, but the Genius sidebar is displaying all the text & buttons in French.
Tried switching language to French, then everything was French, so switched back to English.
Another computer at same location & internet connection is not having the same problem.

Select iTunes Store in the source pane (left-hand column)
Scroll ALL the way down to the bottom of the page
Make sure "My Store" is set to the US store, and not the French store

Regarding the article: iTunes Store: Troubleshooting iTunes Match: in my mac iTunes, i don't have a menu option 'view view options'. i do have 'view show view options'. but the resulting popup is different. is this article out of date?

i am troubleshooting iTunes match because it has been days since i uploaded music to mac iTunes and it still has the iCloud status icon for 'waiting'.

Is there really nobody else with this problem? Really?

TS1424 I downloaded an album, but most of the songs are incomplete. The itunes list shows the appropriate song length, but the actual songs are not completely downloaded - meaning it does not give me the option of finishing the download.

I purchased a complete album, but most songs are only about a minute in duration rather than their actual lengths. The times showing indicate the full song was downloaded, but in reality, its like listening to a sample. I want to get entire songs, but the itunes list shows it as downloaded, so it does not seem to give me the option to download again. I sure would like to get what I paid for. Any suggestions?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

Without a computer you will not be able to do any managing of the music in the cloud. There is no way to edit any metadata on an iOS device.
Also, iTunes Match is not a backup service and should not be relied up as such. With no computer you will not have any backups of your music.

I recently bought an Ipod touch 2nd gen, (Ebay). It's in great shape and seemed to be wiped clean.
When I connect (via windows computer) to Itunes with usb cord the Ipod icon shows, but the only function you can do is eject. When its in the upper right hand corner and you click on it all you get is a done button, when it's in the side bar right click and your only option is eject, left click has no effect. If I go to "file">devices it's as if there are no devices connected.
I purchased a song with Itunes on the Ipod itself, and it transferred to my library on the computer automatically .
I have an Iphone 5 and a nano that are still functioning with Itunes thru computer so I'm thinking the issue is with the Ipod touch. I've reset it several times, rebooted it, with no change.
nothing on the internet has helped, I called tech support and got disconnected. Should I take it to a retail store? I just don't know where to go next, I'm of course willing to pay for tech or repair. looking for suggestions.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Adding songs, they copy to iTunes music folder, but don't show up in my lib

Hi,
I recently built a new computer, and wanted to put my music on it from my external hard drive, which contained my "iTunes Music Folder" from my old computer. However, when I add music from my external hard drive to my new computer's hard drive, it says it's copying it to the iTunes Music Folder (on my new comp), and says that it's "Analyzing Gapless Playback" and the like, but the only problem is, the music doesn't show up on my Library! And I've looked, all the music copied to the new iTunes Music Folder, but my library (in the iTunes program itself) remains a blank list! Does anyone know what the problem is, and what I can do to fix it? Thanks in advance.

I have a Dell that's running Windows XP. I have found that itunes is very temperamental. this works most of the time... except on my son's computer that's running Windows Vista.
Go to your library in iTunes. Then go up to file and try one of the options (import, add folder to library, or add file to library).
Adding a folder is the least work. You can add all the files from a folder with one click... if it works. Remember that itunes is temperamental.
If that doesn't work, try adding a file. The problem with that is that you have to go through the whole process for each and every file (song, movie, etc).
Sometimes the only thing that works is to import.
I haven't gotten iTunes to work on my son's computer (Windows Vista).
I can't get support from apple in any way at all! They are good about creating electronics that appeal to us But they are lousy at support. If anyone figures out how to access support (where you can actually contact Apple) please let me know ([email protected]). I've been trying for 6 months.

HT201359 my credit card shows an iTunes charge that I don't recall. How do I find out what the purchase is? I've tried App Store and iTunes purchase list, but they only show items...not receipt numbers

I have been trying in vain to get purchase details on my iPad. I click on the iTunes button, but it only shows the names of the songs, I click on the App Store icon and it shows apps, but none of these match the charge, there is no email regarding purchases. What is the point of having reference numbers when they don't allow you to use them to reference??

You can only view the full purchase history on your computer's iTunes : if you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases.
On your iPad you can view a cut-down version (and optionally contact support if you have a problem with a purchase) via this page : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
