Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

Assorted music 'invisible' on iTunes in the cloud, 'Not in my library'. What's going on?
iTunes in the cloud went live in UK here recently, so I thought I'd take the oppurtunity to redownload my collection of purchased music, and refine my library. Once I downloaded everything displayed in the "Not in my library" section however, I notice that I have a good number of tracks which don't appear.
I no longer have these tracks on my computer, so this is a bit of a bummer. The track total appears in the left column as expected, however no tracks appear on the right.
Any idea what's going on right here? Do download rights vary with each track, is this a regional thing, something to do with my library, or a fresh bug on the iTunes store?it takes time, some things will show right up. it took 2 weeks for a tv show to show up in my purchases

My pictures get to the cloud not the videos- on 4S any ideas?

Photo stream does not included videos, only photos. You can add short (5 min. or less) videos to a shared stream (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99), and you can include videos in your camera roll in your iCoud backup, but you can't add them to photo stream.
If you want to import them to your computer, you can do so as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. -
I dissabled my ipod touch 4th generation. It says connect to itunes, and i did what it say to do but the "connect to itunes" screen never shows up...it just goes back to the "ipod is dissabled connect to itunes screen. What do i do?????
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -

When I open iTunes on my iphone5 it shows only empty screen he cb I fix the issue..help
The screen is completely blank in the app ? Have you tried closing the app via the phone's taskbar and/or done a soft-reset to see if it then displays anything ?
Closing an app : Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support
Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot. -

For iPhone 5 and iPad mini, you can update to IOS 6.0.2. -

When I sync my iphone 4S using iTunes it only syncs 8.5GB of music, not the entore library as specified. Is there a capcity default limit of the amount of storage that can be used for music and if so how do I change it?
The only limit is that of the device. No restrictions on how much of it you can use for music. Is part of your music library unchecked?

I have submitted build by xcode 6.1 but in itunes account shows us Apps and app updates submitted to the App Store must be built with Xcode 5.1.1 or later, and iOS 7 or later SDK after clicking the submit for review.
Please tell me the solution as soon as possible and i am able to remove the build.You have used Xcode 6.1 and it is a valid version, so you should not have any problem. Anyway, if there is any problem, Apple will contact with you to fix it before your app is published.

Why is the itunes always show my ID is disabled as I download the APP
Why is the itunes always show my ID is disabled as I download the APP
If it works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone then try logging out of your account on the phone by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it
If it doesn't work on your computer nor iPhone then depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page -
Where can I find the history in Safari? It shows only 2 days while I have saved the history for 1 month.
Hello Barbara,
Thank you for the question. It sounds like you are only seeing the 2 most recent days of your web browsing history in Safari.
If you haven't tried this yet, I suggest going to History > Show All History when Safari is open to see if more sites come up. You can find this step and more information at the following link:
