ITunes Library not visible in iphone/ipad/appletv
I have a 2013 mbp, and 2007 imac. An ipad Mini, an iphone 5 and apple tv 3. All are updated to the most recent versions.
Both my mbp and my imac can "see" each other's itunes libraries and play them. So home sharing works.
My iphone, and ipad can see the mbp and imac libraries in their iTunes, however they cannot see them in Music.
The itunes remote works on both the ipad/iphone when looking at the mbp and imac.
The apple tv can happily mirror what is on both the mbp and imac. I can play itunes music happily on the apple tv from both.
The apple tv cannot see the itunes library of either the imac or the mbp in "Computers"
The apple tv happily mirrors the ipad and iphone.
I have duplicated the problem with different routers.
So home sharing sort sort of half works. It is weird. Suggestions?
Have you tried clicking on "Music" in iTunes?
Yes and that is where my purchased music shows up but not my 6900 other songs.
My Itunes library is on an external hard drive. Maybe that has something to do with it....

hi I have window 8. My iTunes will not see my iPhone, iPad or Apple TV. Firewall and setting all look fine. The little box that is on the lower right that allows you to pick a device is missing, thanks
Windows 8 has not been officially released nor is it supported by iTunes.

ITunes Library not syncing wiht iPhone
Hello! I'm very frustrated with the update. After the IOS update, I have been getting problems all around.
My main problem is that my iPhone does not sync with my library anymore. To add songs, I have to access my iPhone through iTunes and then go to "On This Phone" tab and autofill new songs from my library to the iPhone.
Thanks to whoever that can help me!Hi,
Yes, you would need to have that Sync Music box ticked if you want music to automatically sync to the device when you hook it up to iTunes.
Once you select that option, you will then be able to further select option to sync specific music as you wish.
If everything that you might want on your phone is in your iTunes library, then you will be able to sync whatever you want back to the phone once you get that profile page set up.
Cheers,

ITunes Library not visible in iPhoto
Several days ago, I installed a variety of updates to my G5. I went from OSX 10.3.9 to 10.4.2. I also went from iLife 4 to 5, updated my ipod, etc. In between the many updates, I went into iPhoto and played with slide shows. I was able to create several shows and import music into them. After my updates were done, the next time I tried to make a slide show, my iTunes library is no longer there. It shows the icons and all of the playlists underneath it. But you can't see any of the songs. My itunes and ipod are working fine. Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong?
HI Patty,
check out these two movies and see if it helps.

Every other function works perfectly, and my Internet/router are working at top speed. I can watch HD Netflix and YouTube but nothing via my iTunes library on my MacBook or iPad. All software is updated. The AppleTV will recognize that Air Play is trying to do it's thing, but with music files it sounds like they're skipping and video files just load endlessly.
I'm searching for an answer to almost the same exact problem, using almost the same exact hardware and software. Has an answer been found?
The files that I'm trying to burn come from eMusic, and they are formatted mp3. Recently, (after the iTunes update to 9.2.3?,) they would not drag and drop from iTunes into Toast. From several different discussions I've tried working around this by dragging to the desktop first then dragging and dropping to Toast, going to Toast from a programmer's homemade help window, " iToons," and today, after talking with Apple support, going directly to Toast from my eMusic folder. Alas, all recordings do not perform like they use to. Sometimes they play and sometimes not. There is one I managed, that is listenable, but sometimes I have to put it in my car stereo over and over again as it gets ejected with an error code, sometimes, finally it takes it... Some of the recordings on other disks I've burned are not clean - they have white-noise sounds creeping in... I use to have none of these problems. One time as I was listening to a CD that managed to play, and it just stopped playing... Is there an answer out there to get back to how it use to be? Thanks for you help. -
When I sync recently bought albums to my iPhone I get duplicated tracks. How can I resolve this. The duplicated tracks do not appear in my itunes library, just on my iPhone.
It seems to happen with songs that were purchased before synchronizing the new iPhone
I will tell you how I fixed it.
Note: I have iTunes in spanish so I will try to translate and figure out the commands that appear on ITunes in english. I will put my translations into brackets. English is not my native language. I will do my best.
The workaround is:
1.- Dragg no working songs from iTunes to a folder on the hard disk. (Only for backup purposes)
2.- Deleted those songs from iTunes library.
3.- On the left panel in ITunes click on "Purchased" under the STORE option. All your purchased songs will appear on the right panel
4.- At the bottom and right there is the option : "Download Previous Purchases". Click there.
5.- Click on the option "Are not in my Library" (top right)
6.- The songs you deleted from iTunes will appear.
7.- Downloaded them again. (You have the option to download at the bottom right)
8.- Syncronize your iPhone and that's all. -
My books are no longer in the iTunes library on my MacBook Pro. They are not in my iBooks, either. I had over 200 books in my iTunes library, all synced to my iPad 2. I deleted them from the iPad as I read them, knowing I still had them in iTunes. Then I updated to iOS 7. I still have the books I haven't deleted from my iPad, but all the other ones are nowhere to be found. No books in iTunes, no books in iBooks. Where are they? Also, going forward, if I want to add more books to my iPad, especially PDFs that are not available for purchase from the iBooks store, how do I do that? Help!
let's try working through this document. (you can skip the reinstall itunes step.)
No music shows up in iTunes after upgrading -
When I am trying to upgrade my iphone to IOS7.0.2 by connecting my my iphone and macbook, it shows "There are purchased items on the iPhone “asingh’s iPhone” that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this iPhone. Are you sure you want to continue? ". I hit the same issue and lost a lot of apps from my iphone. Can someone help on how to resolve this issue? I can automatically upgrade my software on the iphone but how shall I resolve any future updates of "Apps"?
I appreciate the answer, but what you describe is not entirely accurate. First, to even see view, you have to enable the menu by clicking on the icon in the upper left. View allows you to show the sidebar.
Second, you will NOT see your devise listed in sidebar or anywhere else. Instead, you have to click on "devise" from the sidebar menu, wait a minute, and then it will finally show up under "devise." Or maybe it just takes a minute to show up whatever you do.
Third, right clicking on your devise will take you to a menu with "transfer my files" on it, but then iTunes will refuse to make the transfer. Instead, it will tell you that <your apps> on your <devise> could not be transferred to iTunes "because you are not authorized for it on your computer." Apple unhelpfully suggests going to store> authorize this computer. There is a "store" menu item on the sidebar, but it has no "authorize this computer" sub-menu. Instead, go to the horizontal menu at the upper left, and THERE you will find "store" and the "authorize this computer" sub-menu. Now you can transfer your files, to who knows where.
My iPhone 5 is my first Apple devise. So far my experience has been, to do A, which must be done right now, you must first do B. To do B you must first do C, which is unexplained save in answers in user forums. To do C you must first do D, which, after several hours of research and puzzle solving, can eventually be done. -
They say purchased but wont go into my itunes library or onto my iphone. Please help.
Hey there aussieboss123,
It sounds like you are wanting to download an album that you pre ordered, not all the songs are downloading. First, use this section of the following article to see if the tracks download:
Download a pre-ordered item
When a pre-ordered item becomes available, you will receive an email letting you know that you can download your pre-order.
If you enabled the option to automatically download prepurchased content in iTunes, then your pre-ordered content may already be in your library. If not, click the download link provided in your email notification, and your pre-ordered content will begin to download. You can also use the Check for Available Downloads feature in iTunes on your computer (choose Store > Check for Available Downloads) to begin downloading your pre-order.
iTunes Store: About pre-orders
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5714
If it does not, I would use the following article to report a problem with the purchase to the iTunes Store support directly:

ITunes does not recognize my iPhone when I am connected to the internet!
Okay, I am back with an old problem that I had with iTunes 9.0. iTunes will not see my iPhone if I am connected to the internet. If I turn off the WiFi, I am fine. Is there a fix for this? I found the following (see below) on 1 website and did all of them already. I don't have # 3, so I did not have to try that one thing.
Run through this series of potential fixes, which will solve sync issues for most users:
1. Reinstall iTunes. In some cases this issue can be resolved by completely removing then reinstalling iTunes as described in this Apple Knowledge Base article.
2. Remove third-party backup software. If you’ve installed software for an external hard drive or another device, it may include an automatic backup utility that recognizes the iPad as a storage device, interfering with the normal sync process. Try uninstalling any such software then re-syncing your iPad.
3. Remove iToner. It appears that the presence of Ambrosia Software’ iToner software may cause problems with syncing the iPad. Navigate to ~/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins and/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins (the Library folders inside your user folder and at the root level of your startup drive) and look for a file called iTonerSupport.bundle. Remove it, then restart, and check to see if iPad syncing occurs more quickly.
4. Delete iTunes .plist. Delete the following file
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist then restarttry deleting these preference files

10/20/14
Yes, I am signed in to iTunes match on the macbook pro, iPhone , & iPad (all updated & correct music libraries) where I bought all the tunes but still no updated tunes on the iPhoto music library after 3 days of being on iTunes match.
Thank you,

My iTunes will not recognize my iPhone after iTunes was updated.
my iTunes will not recognize my iPhone after iTunes was updated. what does that mean?
<Re-Titled By Host>Hello mzshay2u2,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that you're unable to locate your iPhone within iTunes 12 on your Mac. First, I'd like you to take a look at the screenshot below, as iTunes 12 changed the navigation of your Library.

If you do not see your iPhone's icon there, then continue on to the link below.

Is it possible to transfer music from my iTunes Library to someone elses iPhone 6?'
Possible yes. Something you would want to do? Not likely.
Music bought from the iTunes store is only licensed to the Apple ID that bought it. The other iPhone has no right to play it, and as such it would require your Apple ID and Password on said Phone to be able to play. Are you willing to do that?
It would also be illegal, and akin to piracy.
You will also overwrite any other music they may have in their iPhone and replace it with yours.
