Library list in itunes

The library list in itunes is:
music
video
Is there a way to add another to the list, say television or video2 ???

(new to itunes, as you can tell)
So I did that, hit the plus for new playlist.
Now... how to just put certain files into that new list?
I thought I could just make new "libraries" and skip playlists.

  • Auto-deleted library list in iTunes...

    I have an ipod classic 160GB,
    I use Windows 7,have an antivirus,
    my pc has got no problem or disfunctions
    but it's the 2nd time my itunes library was deleted.
    I open today my itunes,via double click on the icon shortcut and most of the songs(especially those who were covert from *wmv files to iTunes)were deleted.
    Why happened that?Is there a gb limit I can import?
    How can i create a back-up?
    It has happened in past another time and that really worried me.

  • "LIBRARY" listing in itunes 7

    I just upgraded to itunes 7 and am SUICICAL over the new layout. I use itunes for podcasts and before could see my downloaded podcasts by first clicking on library in the menu on the left and then clicking on podcasts in a little window to the right containing the different items in the library (NOT podcast in the main menu to left). I could then arrange them by date downloaded or artist or whatever so could transfer them to my ipod and then delete them from my computer.
    Now I can only see them by selecting 'podcasts' from the main menu on the left, which shows both what you're subscribed to and what you've downloaded. If I delete I have to do it podcast by podcast, not all the stuff I got at one time. Otherwise I'm deleting the programs I subscribe to. Also I can't click on 'date downloaded' and get it to organize by that. It only seems to do alphabetical.
    I'm truly desperate. Is there any way I can get my old version 6 back with its windows-like display option?

    Edit/Preferences/General>Podcasts needs a tick in the box so that can appear in your Library.

  • I purchased a song almost two years ago and the song is no longer present in my library, but it is listed on itunes store as purchased.  How do I get this song back?

    I purchased a song almost two years ago and the song is no longer present in my library, but it is listed on itunes store as purchased.... How do I get this song back?

    @caragam, if the songs are no longer in your purchase history it means either they have been hidden or the original items are no longer available for sale on the iTunes Store or you are logged into the store with a different Apple ID.
    To see if they have been hidden in iTunes pull down Store > View my AppleID. Enter your password when prompted. In the middle of the screen, click "view hidden purchases." See if the purchased items are here. If they are unhide them and go back to your purchase history and re-download them.
    If the purchases are not hidden and you do not have a backup then the songs are gone and there is no way to recover them. This is why we keep backups.
    If you used a different Apple ID to purchase the song, log out of the store and log in with the appropriate Apple ID and download the song. Be aware this could trigger a 90 day lock out of the other store account so make sure you really, really want that song.

  • What does ! mean in itunes library listing?

    I have updated my itunes version and really messed things up. All of my itunes songs have an exclamation mark in front of them and when I click on the song an error messages advises that the song cannot be found. However the song does indeed exist and can be played from windows explorer by clicking on it, at which time itunes pops up as the default media player and removes the exclamation mark. It also makes a duplicate listing of the song.
    dell   Windows XP Pro  

    It means that iTunes doesn't know wer the file has gone, it mite have moved or been deleted, so basically it's tellin u that it doesnt know wer it is. You can add all your songs agen to the library or tell iTunes where the file is.

  • 3 users sharing itunes on 1 imac. How does everyone's library listing refresh when all 3 users are loading music from their own screens?

    3 users sharing itunes in shared folder on one imac computer. What can we do to "refresh" our individual library listing to list music loaded by other 2 users? We listen to books in the car via ipods. How can books I have loaded show up on other 2 library listings and vice-versa? Had a couple of instances where 2 of us loaded the same book because we didn't know the other had already loaded it!!!

    It sounds like you are using individual libraries (each user has library files in their iTunes folder) but shared media.  iTunes doesn't have an active way of scanning a shared media folder for new additions.  You will just have to tell each other that something has been added to each person can add the media information to their libraries.  The only other ways I know of are to using a single user library (many disadvantages to that too, especially with 3 of you), or to use Home Sharing which also has disadvantages.

  • I have just got iTunes match. It appears that since joining and starting it some tunes have been deleted from my library. They are shown in the listing but iTunes can no longer locate the files. Any suggestions?

    I have just got iTunes match. It appears that since joining and starting it some tunes have been deleted from my library. They are shown in the listing but iTunes can no longer locate the files. Any suggestions?

    If they are showing in the Videos app with a cloud then go into Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and set Videos (under the 'Show All') heading 'off' - you might (depending upon which country that you arein) have a similar button for music and the Music app.

  • I have lots of audiobooks in my library. The problem is each individual cd is listed, it makes my library list very long and when one cd is over I have to click to the next. I would like it to be one big file in order.

    I use my Itunes for all my audiobooks. Right now I may have a book that has 28 Cd's. having many books with many cds in the library makes the library list long and ugly. I would like to consolidate the 28 cd files into one large one. but not screw up the indiviual chapters on each cd. I know Left Click, get into I can orginize more information, under options I have labled them audiobook, but that dose not seem to murge all the cds into one. any ideas?

    Hi Terence:
    so that sounds like better news...I should be OK when this happens?
    Essentially my events become albums...I still have the separation ..correct?
    Why would this be a problem?
    This was a response from an earlier post from Vanoord that concerned me: quote..see next-
    Events has been removed from Photos - it's replaced by 'Moments'.
    'Moments' are like 'Events', but split up by the software and you have no control over what goes where, or what they're called. If you've got 300 Events now, you can look forward to about 3,000 'Moments'.
    This response implies that all my 300 events will become separated into thousands of moments.  What does this mean?  Is this true?
    Won't my Events just become albums as you suggested?
    I have years of events that have accumulated and collated photos.  They must stay separated.
    ****the other thing I was unclear about was the synching part..
    Example:
    I have 300 albums with 30K photos distributed in various numbers in each album ( used to be events according to your response)
    I add some photos in each album each day
    I set all my devices to the cloud etc...
    the cloud synchs from my designated "source" Macbook...
    the cloud sees this and uploads
    then the confusing part...the other devices ( MacBooks, I pad, i phone) all will see the synch and can then be designated to download to each device in the original form as we view it on a Macbook or i phone?  What does "full resolution" or optimized previews mean as Leonie replied above?
    I need my JPEG images for my education keynote presentations and e mailing images as required from each event as needed ( soon to be albums)
    Thanks again...just want to understand what is going to happen

  • 1st gen Apple TV not in devices list in iTunes

    My 1st generation AppleTV is no longer showing in the devices list in iTunes on my Mac Pro.  I have read several pieces of advice and performed the following long list of actions but I am still stuck and unable to sync my Apple TV.  I hope someone has a new suggestion for me?
    The AppleTV has had the computer removed from the connections setting.  It has been rebooted and left on the connect a new computer screen with the numerical password visible.
    The AppleTV can be seen visible in the iTunes of my Macbook Air running 10.8.3 and the iTunes version is 11.0.2.  I have not 'clicked to setup' since my main library is on my Mac Pro that used to sync.  I can ping appletv.local from my macbook air succesfully which returns an IP address.
    My MacPro is running OSX 10.7.5 and iTunes 11.0.2 and one day the device failed to show in the devices menu.  I cannot ping appletv.local from my Mac Pro but I can ping the IP address returned from the ping on my Macbook Air.
    At first I removed the device from iTunes preferences and removed the computer from the AppleTV which allowed me to see the AppleTV on my Macbook Air but not my Mac Pro.
    Secondly I used AppZapper to uninstall iTunes and reinstalled from a fresh download as r4ecommended here -> http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10329494-263.html  I also used Pacifist to reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service after removing the service as per the instructions here -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747  My iTunes library is back as it was but my other devices were originally missing until I connected them via USB to re-enable the wifi sync.
    I can see my shared libraries between my MacPro and my Macbook Air.  I can also use Airdrop between them and can connect between them as usual.  I have disabled the firewall on my Mac Pro just in case and I have no VPN or antivirus software that blocks any communication.
    My network setup is a little unusual since I have my ISP router as the DHCP assigner connected to an Airport Extreme base station that acts in bridge mode to distribute a wifi network across my home.  I then have a powerline adapter connected to the airport base station to send network around my home to places where wifi is weak.  My macbook air connects to the wifi.  My MacPro connects via a switch in my office to a 2nd powerline adapter.  My AppleTV connects via a 3rd powerline adapter and can see the internet fine (it plays youtube videos for example).  None of the network devices have any ports blocked on them and since the Macbook Air connects to the AppleTV as expected but the MacPro does not then I do not think it is network related.
    So I can only assume there is something wrong with my MacPro being unable to recognise my AppleTV as an AppleTV rather than just another device on my network.  Anyone else got any ideas of what to try on my MacPro to get it to recognise the AppleTV?

    I am still experiencing this issue - can anyone help?
    Since writing the above replies I have also tried to downgrade iTunes to 10.7 via these instructions -> http://arstechnica.com/apple/2013/03/how-to-downgrade-from-itunes-11-to-version- 10-7-on-your-mac/ but that did not work.  iTunes worked fine but the AppleTV was still not in my devices list on my Mac Pro

  • I have music on iPod touch that isn't listed in iTunes, can't seem to "manage" the content

    Sheesh. I know it's supposed to be simple & intuitive, but I can't quite figure some things out.  Now, I may have reloaded iTunes since I had to rebuild my PC.  Fortunately, my library of music - mainly from CDs - was saved on a backup.
    1.  I have some music that isn't quite listed in iTunes
    Creedence Clearwater Revival album Chronicle Volume 1 also shows up as Chronicle, Vol.1 on the iPod
    but it shows up only as Chronicle, Vol. 1  in my Music Library.  How did it duplicate itself and how do I get rid of the duplicates?
    note that these duplicates do not appear in iTunes, so clicking on Display Duplicates does not find them.
    2.  I cannot remove the rogue versions of songs either directly from the iPod or from iTunes
    3.  I cannot adjust the columns or sort order when viewing my iPod's Music in iTunes
    4.  Sync is not checked for any of the categories in iTunes
    if I check the Sync box for music, it states it will wipe out my music and replace it with my library.  My whole library won't fit on my 8 GB iPod.  How do I pick and choose what goes to the iPod.  Do I really need to wipe out the contents of my iPod first?
    5.  Last question - Can I assign the album art that was ripped from my CDs to the albums/songs imported from My Music in Windows to iTunes? 
    So I'm a bit frustrated but very open to solutions.  My iPod touch is maxed out and I want to adjust what content - pictures, apps, music & playlists only - gets loaded on the iPod.
    Help!  Help! Thanks!!

    - From your description you did something to iTunes on the computer such that the iPod sees ythe iTunes library as a new library.  That is why you are getting the message about erasing when you try to sync.  Yu can, as you are doing, managing music with the computer since you can do that among different conputer.  See:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    - If all music, apps, sysnced photos are on the computer you  need to:
    --- Make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecing Backup and then restore the iPod from that backup.
    - You can transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - You can transfer non-iTunes purchaed music by using one of the third-party programs discussed here. Some of those may also do synced photos.

  • Still possible to have consolidated Library view in iTunes 11 ?

    Hi,
    In prior versions, it was possible to view a "Library" view which would include all media (Music, Movies, Podcasts, etc) by following these commands? I don't want to screw anything up !
    This is taken from an article appearing in MacWorld, which I have used safely in the past.
    Quit iTunes if it’s running, open Terminal (in Applications -> Utilities), and enter these two commands (the $ is just the prompt; don’t type that), pressing Return after each:
    $ defaults write com.apple.iTunes show-library-playlist -bool TRUE
    $ defaults write com.apple.iTunes hide-library-playlist -bool FALSE
    Note that the second command may not be required—on one of my machines, this trick worked after only running the first command. On a second machine, however, I had to use both commands.
    Now restart iTunes, and notice the new Library entry in the Library section of the iTunes side panel. Click on it, and you’ll see that it contains absolutely everything—music, TV shows, movies, podcasts, etc.—in iTunes.

    Sorry, thanks for your reply, but you missed the point.
    The commands allowed a consolidated view named "Library" which sat at the top of the Library list above Music.
    It contained ALL of the media, not matter which catagory it was filed under. Very helpful for organizing, etc.
    This was actually a hidden preference in iTunes, hence the abiltiy to make it appear via the terminal command.

  • Apple TV not showing up in device list in iTunes

    Apple TV stopped showing up in the devices list in iTunes when I tried to sync my movies, and iTunes froze in mid-sync. Since there is no "eject" button for Apple TV in iTunes, the only thing to do was to close iTunes. When I opened it up again...no more Apple TV under devices. Apple TV works as a stand-alone and I can purchase and view using controls in Apple TV, but I can't sync iTunes with Apple TV, so all my previous purchases are stuck in iTunes until I can sync again. I have tried all the work-arounds suggested by Apple. This is my second Apple TV. The first one did the same thing before the returns deadline kicked in. Hey Apple!! Wake up and fix this!!! If I can't sync with iTunes then I am not putting any money into movie rentals or purchases!! This is costing YOU $$$$$$$$!!

    I had this problem and tried most of the suggested solutions. I could ping the ATV, so I had not network problems. Finally, this is the suggestion that worked for me (Windows 7 user running iTunes 9.1.0.79):
    - power off the ATV
    - open iTunes on the computer;
    - ensure "Share my library on local network is enabled in iTunes (Edit--Preferences--Sharing);
    - power on the ATV;
    - go to "Add Shared iTunes Library" on the ATV (Setting-->Computer menu, second line of the menu) which puts up a new passcode on the screen;
    - DON'T proceed with inputting the passcode number to add the shared iTunes Library, but instead press "menu" button on ATV remote to exit the "Add Library" function and return to the ATV setting menu;
    - this step seems to wake up the ATV<-->iTunes connection and at this point the ATV device reappeared on iTunes!;
    - on the ATV (Setting--Computer menu) I was then able to connect to the nominated iTunes library (top line of the menu) and enter the passcode required by that screen.

  • Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer seen in device list in iTunes 10.4.

    Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer seen in device list in iTunes 10.4. I can see it in the multiple speaker list and I can connect to it that way,  it is not seen as a device in order for me to sync content. Any ideas?
    I've tried:
    1.) rebooting my network
    2.) rebooing my AppleTV
    3.) Running diagnostics on my AppleTV (everything is working 'fine.')
    4.) Rebooting iTunes
    5.) Rebooing my computer
    6.) .....
    Please help.

    Check the firewall allows access for iTunes, try disabling the firewall if necessary. Try restarting the router.
    Also try de/re connecting your iTunes library from your Apple TV; disconnect from the Apple TV (Settings/Computers/Your_Library) and reconnect again (Settings/Computers/Connect_to_iTunes) - You will need to re-sync previously synced content.
