Library Not showing in New Install

Hi there
Just reinstalled a new installation of Windows 7 Ultimate (64bit) on a SDD.
I installed Itunes and it detected that I have songs purchased and downloaded them... I can see them in my main Music Library.
I then went to import my entire music library which is on a Internal HDD but seperate from the SDD where I tunes is installed. (221GB of music and Vids) the program imported all the files and took forever to do it... once complet I opend Music Library and there was nothing there except for the purchased music I downloded before importing all my music.
The Imported music does however show in Recently Added playlist. I have created a New playlist and added all my songs from Recently added to this new playlist called 'All My Music' though this play list contains all my downloaded iBooks books, Videos and Music.
I have tried everythign I know but can't get my library to show in my Main Libraries instead of just in the playtlists!
Olease Help, it will be greatly appreciated!
Regards
J

That article is for moving the folder in the same Mac. Those steps won't work as given when you want to move to another Mac. That's why things were pointing from the old Mac to the new Mac; all you did was copy the tracks and then reset the library on the old Mac. And changing the location of the iTunes Music folder in the iTunes Advanced preference only changes where future additions will go; it does not change where iTunes looks for it's existing content, so changing that on the new computer didn't do anything.
If you have everything working correctly again on the old iMac - all your content is located and plays correctly, all your playlists are intact - then see the section titled "Moving your Content to a New Computer" on this web page:

Some iTunes vids in library not showing on new iPad

Im pretty sure the reason some of my music is missing is that I didn't buy it from iTunes, but rather copied it to my library from CDs (is that right?) But these are music videoes that I bought from iTunes. And, other iTunes vids did show up and offer themselves to me for download.
This is my first full day of life with an iPad so I'm still trying to figure it all out. Thanks!

Virtually all of the music on my iPad is music that I imported from CD. I think I might have 4 or 5 songs that I bought from iTunes and all of my music and music videos sync fine.
You are looking in the Music App for the songs - correct? And you are looking for the Music videos in the Videos app as well - correct?

HT204380 I have bought a new iPad mini. its not showing me Facetime Installed. How should I start a Facetime ?

I have bought a new iPad mini. its not showing me Facetime Installed. How should I start a Facetime ?

Where did you buy it? facetime is barred from devices sold in some countries, due to the countries insisting upon it. UAE and other middle eastern countries are examples.
If you bought your iPad in a country that banns its use then you'll never have facetime on that device. It's locked out at the most basic level.

I purchased a new computer. Why when I log in to itunes does my library not show up

I purchased a new computer. Why when I log in to itunes does my library not show up?

I'm confused....if itunes is basically storing your music for you and you log in, why doesn't that automatically default to your account and display all of you music. What's really strange is, if I have my old laptop on and I am logged into itunes it showed up on my new laptop. But when I log out, it's gone

Will not start on New Install. Opening goes straight to Crash reporter

Will not start on New Install. Clicking on icon does not open a window and goes straight to Crash reporter. I cannot access a window to try to open in safe mode (unless there is another method than outlined in the help article).
I run Windows XP and trying to install the latest 15.0.1 version. Before install, I did disable my Symantic virus protection. I have never used Firefox and would like to try it, but I'm having little success so far to even get started.
Please let me know if anyone has any other ideas or need more information from me.

hello Singyt, the bug report associated to this kind of crash indicates that it might be a malware related issue.
your crash report also shows a file named "urixalog.dll", which doesn't turn up any search hits on google, which is also slightly suspicious. could you search for that file on your pc and upload it to a site like virustotal.com in order to analyze it.
please do a full scan of your system with the security software already in place and/or a different tool like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes].
[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]
edit: the bug report also suggests that a monitoring program named spector pro/360/... which essentially acts like malware, might cause the issue. in case you have that installed please remove it. otherwise [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox%20crashes%20when%20you%20open%20it#w_backdoor-ulrbot-c here] would be a removal guide for urixalog.dll

My creative cloud desktop app does not show the programmes installed

My creative cloud desktop app does not show the programmes installed so I cant update lightroom or any other programme, have unistalled and reinstalled but no change

Hi Roni-
If you updated the desktop installer and the screen is blank: try this:
Rename the opm.db file.
Close the Creative Cloud application if it's running.
Navigate to the OOBE folder.
Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Mac OS: /User/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder
Rename the opm.db file to opm_old.db
Launch Creative Cloud

I have been editing a document on my MacBook Pro and iPad, which has the newer versions of Pages. Now, I cannot open on My MacBook. It says I need a newer version of OS. However, I'm not showing a newer version being availabe!!! Can anyone help???

I have been editing a document on my MacBook Pro and iPad, which has the newer versions of Pages. Now, I cannot open on My MacBook. It says I need a newer version of OS. However, I'm not showing a newer version being availabe!!! Can anyone help???

That is Pages for iPad v2.0, which Pages '09 v4.3 can't read.
You need to either stick with the older version of Pages on the iPad or get Pages 5 for the Mac which is only available if you are running OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
Unfortunately that is not the end of your woes because Apple has made iCloud convert the files to Pages 5 now, and Pages 5 has over 90 features deleted on top of doing a shocking job of converting older Pages files.

Content library not showing in iMovie 10.0

Content Library not showing. No answer found. It is NOT at the top as some say. Where did it go and where is it? What's the best alternative to this stupid iMovie program. So frustrating. It was working a month ago.

So what happens if you choose to proceed with opening the library?
Do you have a library backup, for example on Time Machine?
I have automatic dated backups of all my iMovie 10 libraries but I can't remember how I set it up and there is no mention of backups in iMovie help. (It is doing the same thing as FCP 10.1 does). I have never tried to restore from them though.

HT204053 Pop up menu shows my Apple ID in my iphone as my old email Apple ID. This happens when I try to go into iCloud . It does not show my new apple ID.

Hi jackburkholder,
You will need to delete the iCloud account with your old ID, but before you can do that, you will have to go back into Manage Your Apple ID, and change your Apple ID back to the old address. Don't worry about verifying it, you just need to change it.
Then, go into Settings>iCloud and turn off Find My iPhone (it will ask you for a password - put in your current one to turn it off). Then, scroll down to the bottom of the screen and Delete the iCloud account using your current password.
Also go into Settings>iTunes & App Store, clidk on your old ID and sign out of iTunes.
Then go back to Manage Your Apple ID and put your new Apple ID back in.
Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign on with your new Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID.
Go back into Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign on with your new Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID.
Cheers,
GB

HT1351 My 2nd generation iPod Nano is not showing my new playlists after syncing (the playlists were created in my computer). Help!

My 2nd generation iPod Nano is not showing my new playlists after syncing (the playlists were created in my computer). Help!

So, your iPhone (and new shuffle) still work properly with iTunes, correct?
Your 1st gen shuffle... It's the white one with USB plug, that looks like a USB flash drive...?
Are you able to see it in Windows, and maybe change the drive letter back to E:?

Airport Extreme will not show USB drive installed Solved!

Airport Extreme will not show USB drive installed Solved... At least for me!
Here's what I had to do to make it work with the newest 7.3.1 firmware.
Ready for this? No Joke Really!
1. Connect your USB drive to the Airport Extreme.
2. Turn it on.
3. Open the Airport Utility.
4. Go to Manual Setup.
5. Choose Disks and File Sharing.
Yep, we are going to set file sharing before we even see the disk we want to share!
You (I) had to set File Sharing on and Share Disks over Ethernet checked as well as set the Work Group (In my case). THEN restart the Airport Extreme.
After it re-started... My USB Drive was now present and ready for use.
I also dis-allowed Guest access. I re-started ALL computers in my network, both Windows and MAC. The USB drive held and works GREAT!
I know... Most of you thought this was a joke, It's not!
I tried everything to get the USB drive to work and failed every time just like most other people. Doing it this way worked like a charm.
Go Figure huh!
Hope this helps someone with this issue.

How was the usb hard drive formatted? Was it NTFS, FAT32, or HFS+?

I have just bought an iPod Nano to replace my previous one which died,when I open my iTunes it does not show the new iPod, and refuses to allow me to sync my existing library, the new iPod does not show in my computer only on devices, any suggestions ?

Question: I have just bought an iPod Nano to replace my previous one which "died" My computer does not recognize the new iPod and only shows it in devices and printers. I cannot sync my existing iTunes to the new iPod, there is no way I can do it. Any help please?

Hey there longislandmacca,
It sounds like your iPod is not recognized in either Explorer, or in iTunes on your PC. That can be frustrating, expecially when its a new device. I recommend you use the following article to help resolve that issue named:
iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Song in itunes library not showing up when opening itunes.

Computer crashed. Had to install itunes again. My songs Library do not show in itunes. But if I search for them I can see the folders.

I have this issue as well. Just installed my Windows 8 Machine and went to look for all my CD's and iTunes purchases in the iTunes store and can't find them to download to the new PC.

TS1424 Apple Mobile device does not show up after installing 10.0.7.21

Receive message "Apple Device not started". Apple Device does not show up in Adminstrative Tools, Services. Windows 7 64bit, IOS6.0.1.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if a component such as Apple Mobile Device Support won't install normally.
