The following are the basic steps to transfer your iTunes Media folder from your MacBook Pro to the Time Capsule (TC). Note: You will leave the iTunes Library, and its associated files, on the MacBook Pro as you will only be moving the media files.
Be sure to shutdown iTunes before starting.
Next, move the "iTunes Music" folder, located in ~/Music/iTunes/, to wherever you want on your TC's internal hard drive. Remember to leave the Album Artwork folder, as well as the three individual library files where they are on the MacBook Pro.
Wait a while. If you have a large library, this will take a bit of time.
Once the iTunes Media folder has been transferred, open iTunes. Note: It will still be looking at your local iTunes Library on the MBP. As such it will think that the iTunes Media folder is still on the MBP as well. However, we just relocated it to the TC. If you attempt to select any song, you will get an error that the song is "missing." Not to worry, we will correct this in the next step.
We need to tell iTunes the media has moved to the TC's internal HDD. To change where iTunes "looks" for the media, open iTunes and go to the Advanced > General tab and use the "Change..." button to tell it where your new "iTunes Music" library is located.
Once this is done iTunes will likely pop up a progress window telling you that it's re-analyzing your library. Let it complete this step.
As a final check to make sure everything when as planned, click on any library file from within iTunes and press cmd + i (or View > Get Info). At the bottom of the Summary tab in that window is a "Where:" section that tells you the actual file path to that piece of media; be sure that path begins with the name of your TC's drive, and not "Macintosh HD."

I accidentally synced my mum's brand new iPad to my mac book air. A few days later I realised that my iTune library on my mac is completely gone. So is my iPhone 4s after I synced it with my mac. How do I get my old iTunes library back? I tried using icloud on my iphone but it stated that I have never back up my phone before. So I guess my iCloud data is gone too? But I have back up my mac in my harddrive using time machine. So how do I get my old itune library back? Please help! Thanks!

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

I want to delete songs from iTunes Match by unchecking them in my iTunes library on my Mac. Is this possible? If so, how do I change the necessary setting(s) in iTunes or iTunes Match?

I have seen this page, but it seems that this involves deleting songs from my iTunes library in order to remove them from iTunes Match. I want to keep them in my iTunes library, but not in iTunes match (I am over my limit for songs in iTunes Match, and would like to decide which songs to keep in iTunes Match).

My audiobooks are not appearing in my itunes library on my Mac.

My audiobooks are not appearing in my itunes library on my Mac. Why? I have tried the download option but it doesn't seem to read them. When I go to purchase again it says that i have already purchased the item. Help

Thanks for responding, however the problem is they are not on my computer. I bought them using my itunes account on my phone and I want them on my computer. When I purchase music like this, the computer checks for downloads and then voila, they are added to my library. I want to do the same thing with my audiobooks, since my Imac has bigger speakers

Why is apple this stubborn about not creating a new iTunes library in my Mac without telling or asking me? Does it think i'm that ignorant?

Why is apple this stubborn about not creating a new iTunes library in my Mac without telling or asking me? Does it think i'm that ignorant?
After consulting all the forums, I see that Apple is not answering this simple question: so disrespectful!
Please do something about it! All it takes is to write a little code: in the "Advanced Preferences (advanced????) give us an option that just asks you IF you want to create a replacement iTunes library before doing it! is this hard for you Mac guys????? To me, and to others, many, this arrogant attitude is just disrespect. Do you know the difference between making love and rape?

OK, OK,
I read a little. I just tried the "Music alias" thing. It seems to work!!!

ITunes library deleted on mac when trying to transfer to iPad.

I went to transfer my iTunes library from my mac to my iPad. Before I could do anything, my entire iTunes library on my mac was erased. Since I still have everything on my iPod, how do I #1 - get the contents of my iPod back into my iTunes library on my mac and #2 - get my library onto my iPad without making this mistake again. Appreciate any help.

Again, the problem is not with installing the drivers. The drivers install fine. I needed to reconfigure the printers' wireless settings so that I could use the printer over wifi. The problem is I updated OS X to 10.9 and it broke the HP Setup Assistant software that allowed you to configure the printer's wireless settings via USB. HP didn't write a new compatible version.
The driver software doesn't allow you to configure the printer's wireless settings, so your suggestion still was not helpful.
I ended up having to wing it. The User Guide that comes with the Officejet 6000 E609n mentions that the printer, after going through a full factory reset, will put itself in ad-hoc wireless mode on "hpsetup" wireless SID with a self-assigned IP. However, the user guide does not explain how to figure out the self-assigned IP.
After figuring out the correct factory reset key combo (there are various versions of this, not all work - google it if the user guide version doesn't work for you), I reset the printer and joined the "hpsetup" ad-hoc network. At that point, I had to figure out what the self-assigned IP address was so I could connect to the HTTP admin console and manually configure the wireless settings on the printer. I accomplished this with the "HP Utility" portion of the Setup Assistant suite of software that still worked on OS X 10.9 and tried to add a new printer by scanning the wireless network. When scanning, it will show the IP address of devices found on the local network.
Once I connected to the printer via HTTP on the IP I had figured out, I was able to reconfigure the wireless settings for my wireless network.
I am not inclined to buy HP products in the future. This is not the first time that I have been caught by the fact that HP appears to show no interest in maintaining updates to client software support for their products after they are released.

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Sharing iTunes library between two Macs on Time Capsule

Hi there
I've just about persuaded my fiancee to get a MacBook, which would give us a mac-only household. If I got a Time Capsule, could we share an iTunes library? We each have an iPod and it would seem like a pain to have to recreate two entire libraries on the Time Capsule, much of which would be the same music.
I'm also assuming we could both use the TC as wireless Time Machine backup for our Macs - is this correct?
Finally, does anyone have a view on the likely range of TC relative to a standard Linksys 802.11g wireless router? The Linksys doesn't quite reach to the other end of my apartment and I'm wondering if the TC is likely to be better.
Very many thanks in advance.

Hello
You will run into pain. I just tried every found solution on Internet. Whatever you will do, it ends up in a hack. Fact is: iTunes administer your library only local. You CAN share your iTunes library on one Mac by menu settings in a network, BUT the Mac sharing its iTunes library MUST run all the time you want to listen to music from shared iTunes library even if the shared library (music files) is on the Time Capsule. It even wont work turn on "Wake up on LAN activity". The shared library will only be available as long as the Mac sharing its iTunes library is up and iTunes opened. That way it makes no big sense to have the music files in library physically on your Time Capsule. Another problem might come up when you stop listening shared iTunes library: As soon as the sharing Mac goes into StandBy mode (time depending) you can't access its library again. Standby must be stopped.
The other "solution" is also to have the whole library on a shared drive (Time Capsule) and to import it on both Macs. You will run quickly into Sync problems, beside its a pain to administer the song library that way: You have to import further songs twice, on both Macs to hear them on every one.
And of course, there are third pary hacks around nobody really wants to use.
After implementing Time Machine into Lepoard Apple wanted to make money out of it and offered Time Capsule mainly for storing data and backups (what both works great, also WLAN works fine).
I hope Apple will find a way in iTunes not to handle the music libraries so restrictive, so it can be accessed f.e. on Time Capsule while the Mac sharing its library must not run all the time.
Hope I could help.
