ITunes forgets tracks - how can i identify them?
I've just realized that iTunes has forgotten a number of music tracks!
It is, of course, easy to add them again to iTunes.
But the big question is: how can I identify all the tracks that satisfy the following two conditions:
1. they are not in iTunes, and
2. the files are in a subfolder of, say, ~/Music/Klassik?
Any hints, ideas, suggestions will be highly appreciated!
Best regards,
Gabriel.
This application will list the file paths of the files in your designated "iTunes Media" folder which are not in iTunes' library. Additionally, you can select a different parent folder and its contents will be compared to the iTunes library. Options to Add a selection of found files to iTunes or move them to the Trash.

Why are songs/albums deleted off of the iTunes store? How can I get them back on the iTunes store? PLEASE help. Thank you.
Perhaps the copyright holders chose to remove them. What album were you after?

I just exported some music from Amazon to iTunes but now I can't find my original iTunes music. How can I find them?
I did this by going into the folder where the Amazon MP3's were and copied the link into iTunes under the add file link in the menu. This music was purchased before I had an iTunes account so I wasn't aware that they could've been automatically exported. I still have the iTunes MP3s on my iPhone. Could I sync them over or something to that extent because I can't find the files at all even when doing a system search.

I synced a movie from my laptop 2 my iPad but lost some music video I purchased from iTunes store. How can I get them back ? Thxs
Sorry, but movies cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

My daughter and I have the same ITunes account. How can we separate them?
My daughter and I share the same ITunes account. How can we separate the accounts?
I shared my iTunes account with my 2 daughters for years. A few months ago, switched to iOS 8 and Yosemite and upgraded to Family Sharing. We can still share music/apps/etc, BUT now everyone in the family has their own playlists, document, etc. Works great.

I am looking after 20 ipads each with their own itunes account. Am I able to have more than one itunes account on my computer so that I can sync these ipads when necessary. We don't always buy our songs on itunes. Sometimes we buy the cds and download them onto itunes so i need to attach them to the computer to sync the songs. I will need to do this all on my one computer. Can this be done. If not, what do you do in this instance.
Best way to do it is to create a user for each iTunes account.

HI! My husband and I share an itunes account, we have different taste in music and are sick of each others crap (so to speak haha). I want to open a new itunes account for him, without him losing his data, music and photos. How do we do this?
Each device only syncs waht you select.
Select only what you want for each phone. -
There are 158 songs that were once in my iTunes that are now missing. I put all of them on from cds. The only songs that are left are ones that i have purchased. When i pulg my ipod into my computer to add recent songs that i have bought it tells me that i need to erase and sync my ipod with my itunes library or cancel. Well i dont want to erase my ipod and sync it with my itunes because that is 158 less songs that would be on there. On the apple website it said that songs from cds are in the itunes media folder but when i went there it is still just my purchased songs. I dont know what to do except reload all of them back on there but i really dont want to since im not the one who took them off!! Im not entirely sure when the songs went away but i recently updated to itunes 10.4 (i think its .4) and im not sure if that is why they are gone. Thank you in advance to any help!!

I lost all my itunes songs. How can i get them back?
My name is Nickie Berrellez. My computer got a virus and my pc completly turned off. I need help on getting all my songs, music videos, shows and games downloaded on to my new computer. Please help.
Thank you.It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases
YOu buy one and only one download. it is your responsibility to move copy/backup your music. -
