ITunes Playlist/Songs/Genres/Artists/Etc Won't Work in Front Row, HELP!!!

I have previously owned a Powermac G4 and just recently bought an iMac Intel Duo Core, had all my files transferred from my old Mac, however all my MP3 and MP4 videos wont play when I access the iTunes By Front Row, The computer says please add songs to your playlist by buying/transferring your cd to iTunes...
which all my songs (4,000 songs approximately) come from CDs and some purchase through the Apple Store when I had my Old Mac... I tried to purchase a couple of music in the Apple Store, however it is still not reading it in Front Row, what do I doto get this to work, so I can just use te Apple Remote to control the songs I want to play, but instead I always have to use the mouse still which makes the whole remote thing useless...
PLEASE HELP!!! also how do I access the preferences to Front Row?? I dont see it in my System Preference... THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

The songs show up okay in iTunes itself?
Try opening iTunes/Preferences/Advanced/General and pressing the reset for the location of the iTunes folder.
If that doesn't work, try setting the path again.
If that doesn't work try trashing the com.apple.frontrow.plist in User/Library/Preferences.

  • How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone

    How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone but I cannot see a way to remove any of it

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple. 

  • All my song names, artists etc are gone and have been replaced with

    I wanted to move my itunes library to external hard drive to make space on my internal hd. Ive been having trouble with backing up and to make a long story short, my music is gone of my hard drive ( internal), im now backing it up from the ipod directly to my external hd, I did it a bit wrong but its getting there anyway. The problem is that now all the song names, artists etc are gone and each one of my 9170 songs are just capital letters, like AURH, so i have no idea what is what. Anyone know what is goin on here and how to fix this?

    Yes, the iPad is designed to erase all data, when you connect it to a new computer.  It only syncs the data that is on the computer you connect to, to the device.  If you don't have your epub and pdf documents on the computer, and set to sync via iTunes.......they will erase. 
    You need to move the data from the other computer, to the mac.  Once they are on the mac, you can connect the iPad, and sync it to the iPad.

  • ITunes, app store, iBooks store, etc won't load and I can't figure out why. I tried rebooting and it didn't help. Everything else works fine. Help please?

    iTunes, app store , iBooks store, etc won't load and I don't know why. Everything else works fine, and I've rebooted it. The problem is still there and I know I have a good Internet connection. Help please?

    Have you tried disconnecting and re-connecting to your network ?. And when you say rebooted do you mean a reset ? If not then try that : 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 iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    You could also try closing those apps completely. From the home screen (i.e. not with any of those apps 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iTunes, App Store and iBooks apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

  • ITunes playlist songs disappear when selected to play

    iTunes playlist songs disappear when selected to play - ie double-clicked, or clicked once and then play selected. The song doesn't play although there is a brief 'flash' of something at the top of the screen where you would normally see the song details mwhile playing.
    The song is not deleted from the library but is still missing from the playlist when iTunes is restarted.

    I just recently upgraded to iTunes 9 and have found that some songs (18 of 750) will no longer play. I get a couple different error messages, one saying iTunes cannot find the URL for the song and another saying iTunes cannot find the file for the song. I hate to pay for these songs again since I already purchased them from the iTunes store, but I don not know what other options are available. Has anyone had this problem and if so, is there a way to fix these songs?
    Usually that occurs when the file, or one of its containing folders, is moved, renamed, or deleted. If you remember doing one of those things, see if you can put it back the way it was. Otherwise, search on your hard drive for the song file, and re-add it to your library.

  • TS3988 I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud?

    I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?

    Same question Wish someone had replied!
    I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple!

  • Can't upgrade to iTunes 10.3.1 because quicktime won't work

    I attempted to upgrade to iTunes 10.3.1 but it won't work because "quicktime failed." How do I upgrade now?

    Update to 10.5.1. Itunes 10.2.1 is out of date by now and won't be possible.  Update to the newest version and you shouldn't have a problem

  • Shuffle in iTunes 9 will not work in Front Row

    Hi,
    I downloaded iTunes 9 earlier today and I just now turned on Front Row and tried to put my iTunes library on shuffle from the main music menu and I got a message that said I had no music in my iTunes library, and to either import from a disc or buy from the iTunes store. When I backed out of that screen, however, I was able to access all of my music individually (i.e. selecting the artist/album/song/etc.). After 3 tries, restarting, and trying again, I still get the same message when I click on "shuffle songs" at the top of the menu.
    Any help??

    This is cool! I got this iTunes Card Code and it redeemed! I got it from http://freeitunesforever.com

  • I have Itunes 10.6.3, and the update doesnt work on apple? Help!!

    I have Itunes 10.6.3, and the update doesnt work on apple? Help!!

    iTunes 10.6.3 is as high as you can go with OSX 10.5  To use your iPhone 5 you will need iTunes 10.7 at least which in turn requires OSX 10.6.8 or higher.
    1) Make sure your computer meets Snow Leopard technical specifications - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575  This mostly means making sure it is an Intel Mac and has at least 1GB RAM (at least 2 GB is recommended).  Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window to "About This Mac". Does it mention  "PowerPC" (not Intel), or Intel? To check RAM continue to "More Info...".  It should say you have at least 1GB of "memory".
    2) Buy a Snow Leopard disc from Apple online
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard - USA
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard - UK
    or telephone Apple. In the USA: (800) 676-2775 (contact information for other countries: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57)
    Alternatively you can buy from online retailers but anticipate paying much more than the original price which is the price still charged by Apple
    3) Backing up your computer before upgrading is always a good idea.
    4) After installing from the DVD, update your Snow Leopard installation using Software Update or manually downloading and installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v.1.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399

  • Can i make an iTunes playlist with multiple artist but only the best ratet songs? (Intelligent Playlist)

    Yeah I would like to create a Playlist with the by me best rated songs of selected artists i know i can have playlists with multiple artists but that is only possible if i tick match any so that it takes all the songs of those artists and if i select match all there is no song in the playlist...

    Bilu,
    It is a little tricky, but it can be done by using nested rules.  The playlist pictured below will do what you want:  all songs by the named artists, as long as the song has 4 or 5 stars.
    Note:  The ellipsis ("...") button is used to nest a rule.  It appears automatically on Windows, but on the Mac you have to use the Option key.

  • Edit muliple tracks  for genre artist etc?

    Does anyone know a way to edit the genre title etc of multiple tracks quickly?
    Doing it one at a time is extremely tedious particularly if the changes are to lists of up to 70 tracks.
    Thanks

    Just select all the tracks you want to modify and Get Info on them. iTunes will ask if you want to modify the settings on multiple tracks; accept and you can change the info all at the same time. Of course this will only work if you want to have the appropriate info for a given field be the same for all the tracks - for instance you want them all to be the same genre, or have the same album title, etc.

  • ITunes playlists, song ratings gone in 10.4 under Lion

    Im in a crysis here. My iTunes Libaray is gone under 10.4 in Lion. when i first started up it just gave me the standard iTunes window when you have no music or anything. You know it tells you where you can get it. So then i just told it to search my user folder for stuff to import and it started. but then when it gets done none of my songs had ratings that i had applied and none of my playlists where there. I checked my Music folder for playlists and didnt find any. what can i do?

    Your playlists, song ratings, comments, or other information you create are stored in the iTunes Library file found in /Users/username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library.  What are the iTunes library files?, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
    Tip: New versions of iTunes sometimes include enhancements to the iTunes library. When you open the new version of iTunes, iTunes upgrades your existing library to the new format and places a copy of the old library in the Previous Libraries folder. If everything goes fine during your upgrade to the latest version of iTunes, you can delete the older iTunes Library files.
    Look in your  /Users/username/Music/iTunes folder for a folder called previous iTunes Libraries.  These files are dated with the date created.
    How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451 explains how to recreate your library and playlists using these previous files.
