ITunes library not included in media browser, can't share with iLife apps

My iTunes library is no longer included in my media browser previews in other iWork and iLife applications. Not sure when it disappeared, but I know it used to be there! Only recent changes I can think of are I recently migrated all data and accounts on my old iMac to the new iMac using Migration Assistant and I also recently changed the location of the iTunes library from an external drive back to the internal drive. Anyone have any ideas as to what's going on here?
Your help is much appreciated!

Sorry to update the status, but I've also noticed that my iPhoto, iMovie and Aperture libraries are not being shared in the media browser either. I'm thinking OS X is looking in the wrong place for these libraries as a result of the Migration to the new Mac for some reason, but I really don't know. Any help?

I have a new Windows tablet computer with limited hard drive space, and cannot transfer my itunes library to the hard drive. Can I run t media from an external hard drive? If so, how do I transfer my files?

I have a new Windows tablet computer with limited hard drive space (32 GB), and cannot transfer my itunes library to the hard drive. Can I run itunes from an external hard drive? I have tried to follow some of the directions on this site, but am having no success. Thanks.

iTunes will run fine with the media on an external drive.
However, I suggest that a tablet computer with a tiny hard drive is not ideal as the primary computer for managing an iTunes library, even a small one. If you have another machine, perhaps a big, boxy, inexpensive old desktop with a decent amount of storage, that might be a better choice.

Itunes library not saved using windows 7

I keep getting an error "Itunes libray not saved an error (-50)" Can someone help me out. I am limited in my computer skills so it will need to be in regular english. Thanks inadvance for any help you can share.

I'm having the exact same problem, I click the iTunes icon, and it acts like it will open but then nothing happens. I left it once and after 7 minutes it finally opened. I cannot find any information on why this is happening. My library is around 45GB total, which isn't really that much.
I'm on Windows 7 x64 w/ SP1 and fully updated. Running newest version of iTunes x64. My system is an HP dv6-1134ca w/ Intel Core 2 Duo T7200, 750GB WD Scorpio Black @ 7200 and 4GB DDR2 PC6400 RAM. I have an iPhone 3GS 8GB that syncs with this PC.
Someone from Apple should assist with this issue as I did not experience this problem until I recently reinstalled my OS.

If I move my iTunes library to an external hard drive, can my MacBookPro access these files in iTunes or do I need to move them backto my MacBookPro to play music, watch movies, etc.???
Trying to alleviate some disc space on my Mac!!!

Yes, it can. Launch iTunes with the Option key held down and navigate to that instance of the library.

Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
Launch iTunes.
That is all you need to do.

Since I have iTunes match, why does my iTunes library not appear in iPhoto music options for slideshow?; only songs purchased or placed on iTunes over a year ago appear in the iPhoto library under the iTunes or purchased option.

Some of the items in the itunes library not were not copied to the itunes phone because you have not authorized them for this computer

I'm getting a "some of the items in the itunes library not were not copied to the itunes phone because you have not authorized them for this computer" error message for some of my songs when I'm syncing to my iphone to my laptop. I've authorized the computer, but I still get this error messge. Any suggestions?

Were these items purchased with a different Apple ID than the one you normally use? If so, authorized the computer for that Apple ID.

Why is the new CC Library not included in Indesign ?

Hello,
Why is the new CC Library not included in InDesign ?
It works great between Photoshop and Illustrator but now I really miss this feature in Indesign.

Don't know why, but CC Library is a totally different thing compared with InDesign's own library format stored in *.indl files. So I suggest, that you'll make a feature request here:
Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form
Hope, that it will work again today. Heard, some users had problems with the bug report form yesterday…
(For the "why": Sometimes the developer teams of the individual CC products do not talk to each other that much, I think.)

Error: iTunes could not connect to iPod because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on iPod before it can be used with iTunes. We do NOT remember the passcode used.

I am trying to restore my son's iPod Touch 4th generation. I went about 20 minutes into the recovery process and got the error message, iTunes could not connect to iPod because it is locked with a passcode you must enter your passcode on iPod before it can be used with iTunes. The whole problem started with my son putting in a password that he has now forgotten. How do I get passed this?

its the 1st time ive heared of this

if so you should be able to restore it
connect to itunes under the devices tab click on the ipod now click summary on the top
on the page you should see and check for update's or update tab
below that there should be an restore tab just click on the restore tab

HT1923 itunes does not recognise CD's uploaded , can't connect to server it states ,

itunes does not recognise CD's uploaded
can't connect to server it states
although PC is connected to the internet itunes can't find the connection
have an ipod nano
this is complicating things as I can't change what's on the ipod either

Try a hard reset by pressing the Home button and Wake / Sleep button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen.
This does not lose any data on your iPad.
