Mediasource 5 will not restore the music library database

When I restore the backup?Mediasource 5 (ver5.25) stops responding.
It works well on: Fujitsu Siemens Amilo and on 2 deskto
ps.
But not on my new HP Compaq nx9420.
My music and the library are on a ext.HDD

I have a similar problem. Mine started with iTunes putting multiple versions of the same songs (whole and seemingly random albums) onto my iPod 5, but after trying to remedy that I now cannot sync any music of any sort. It took random songs off and then started getting stuck at the "waiting to apply changes" stage (as apparently many people have seen) and after trying all the things that are supposed to work I now have an iPod that doesn't have any music on it (because a lot of my music was not purchased on iTunes) and won't sync music or finish any other kind of sync.
It seems like the "fixes" discovered so far don't work for everyone.
My iPod is 5th gen running iOS 7.0.4 (but problem started on 7.0.3) with the latest version of iTunes, for reference.

What happens when you try to restore the device to factory settings? Any error messages? If so, what is the exact wording of the error message(s)?

Some other things to verify:
On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings check "Sync only checked songs and videos"
In your music library check all the songs you want to sync to your phone
Make sure there are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
Be sure to authorize your computer for all Apple IDs used for any purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize This Computer)
Then make sure you have checked Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync your device.

IPhoto will not load the iPhoto library. When I select "show all windows" the library does appear but cannot open it. I am on version 8.1.2 and using Maverick.

I was able to get it fixed. I had received some responses and they had me
recreate the library I believe. It's been a while so I cant remember
exactly what I did. I have since upgraded to the latest i photo version and
have had no problems with it.

My iphone will not play the music i have downloaded. can you help?

My iphone will not play the music I purchased and downloaded. Can you help?

That may be a problem related to network settings on your computer, or on the router that you use for connecting to the Internet. Take a look at this article for a possible solution

Since this actually a problem with using iTunes, and not directly related to an iPod (or an iPad), you may also want to ask your question in the appropriate iTunes forum category
https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes
The specific problem is that you cannot connect to the iTunes Store when using the iTunes app, even through your computer has Internet access.

My iphone 4 (running iOS 4.3.3) will not display my music library

It all started when I wanted to add a new song to my library. I forgot how to add it and accidently clicked sync, but then remembered that it would erase my library so I canceled it early. After that my phone froze, I restarted and this is where I am at now.
My music library only shows up in iTunes when my phone is plugged into my PC and it shows that my muisc library is still all there, as seen here:
When its not plugged in and I goto to my iPod App, this is what I see and it doesnt change!:
Oh and it also will not display my photo library on my phone and it also says its updating and is stuck there.
What can I do to fix this? I have had no problems with this phone yet and this is very frustrating. Everything else on the phone is in wokring order though.. calls messaging and purchased apps
thank you

Do these other individuals actually have iDevices?
Are they having issues sending/receiving messages from others?
Can they successfully send a message to you?
Honestly, nothing about what you describe sounds like an issue with your device or Apple ID.

I am trying to export a slide show from iPhoto with music from iTunes. it will not export the music file because i have not enabled iTunes plus. how do i do this?

i am trying to export a slideshow from iphoto using a song from itunes. an error message comes up and say it will not export the song because itunes plus has not been enabled. how do i do that?

It sounds like you tune is an .m4p file - p=protected and has DRM.
Previously you could get the + version which was a .m4a file with no protection/DRM.
The + option has been replaced with iTunes Match - $24.99 a year.
A better option if you have a .m4p file would be to repurchase the .m4a version from the iTS unless you want to update your entire library with iTunes match.

I bought a new Ipod touch, my itunes will not see the music I already have on my PC

I bought a new Ipod touch, my itunes will not see the mp3 songs I already have on my PC

I have thousands of mp3's on my PC. I used to use a Zune, it died I made the move to I pod touch. I downloaded I tunes to my PC and a small amount of my music showed up on the screen. I did a search for an artist for whom I have lots of songs. I tunes can't find him and tries to direct to the I tunes store to buy stuff by him. Unacceptable
So then I went to my windows explorer, opened my folder for the artist, right clicked on a song, chose "play" and I tunes then played it. So now I tunes can find that one song but none of the others in that folder. I don't want to do this drill with all my songs since I have thousands that I tunes can't or won't display. Is this just some cynical move by Apple to get me to re-buy music I already have?

Why does iTunes not refresh the Music Library if files are updated?

What if have already a nice library SYSTEM built for my music, and every time I add 30-50 files to 30-50 different locations, iTunes requires me to add the same song again... What if I am doing this updating for 3 hours and I can't remember anymore which songs I added to my Brazilian compilation folder? Why can't iTunes update the library with added files? I see this question popping up on a lot of forums. This is very cumbersome. I keep my international music collection organized by country of origin. If I let iTunes consolidate my music, it will put everything into one big folder organized by name of artist. I definitely don't want to let the program do that. I would lose all my work and all my system.
Once I imported the folder system into iTunes though as a reference, it does not recognize if there was a change, music added, music deleted, music reogranized. It doesn't make sense to delete everything from the iTunes Music Library every time I update my music collection.
Where is the solution? I want iTunes to find the changes and apply it to my Music Library automatically.
I can live with my iPod only having the files in one big library, since I mostly use it for shuffle play anyway, but I want to keep my originals in an orderly manner based on style, country of origin, etc. I don't want to end up having all my files renamed and moved.
So I need iTunes to refresh my Music Library by looking at the original folder I imported the list from, and make the necessary changes.

I guess then this is a serious shortcoming of iTunes... Up till this point I owned an RCA Lyra MP3 player and it had no problems whatsoever doing these things. I guess, after seeing how iTunes and iPod works, I'd rather return to Lyra if it had an 80 G version. The only thing that still keeps me with iPod is the capacity.
It seems like that iTunes is a very cumbersome program and it tries to be so much user friendly that it even tries to eliminate the human element. Sometimes, it makes sense to keep files organized in specific manner. Especially when there is work involved and productivity.
I guess I will just delete everything from the play list and read in the main folder every once in a while, leaving the machine working on it during the night or something, then another night, it will refresh my iPod. That's the only solution I see right now.
It is interesting that a huge program like iTunes cannot do what a small one like Lyra can. And I even read in user groups that some people created programs for this problem, but those programs don't work with iTunes 7 well yet, so I am stuck with the manual updating or the brutal deletion and re-reading.
Thank you for the answer. At least I know what not to expect from the program. I just use it for only one purpose: load music onto iPod, then forget about it. It quite an unuseful program for me otherwise.

Nokia musicplayer not refreshing the music library

I cant refresh music library in my 5233,refreshing just dont stop in music player and so no new tracks are added to it however all previous songs of music player are available in music player,new aaded tracks play well in file manager but they dont appear in music player as refreshing music player dont stop But when I refresh music player by removing MMC then it quickly refresh music library I don't want to do hard reset on my phone however I have done soft reset Please help me..

Hi archithn,
Welcome to the Nokia discussions board!
Sorry to hear you have been having problems with the music player, but since you have done a soft reset, you should back up your device using Nokia suite and then hard reset the device. This ensures you can sync the back up file back to your freshly reset device without losing any important information.
This also syncs your music files, but usually they should be in your MMC card.
Let us know how you get on.
Regards,

My ipad will not download the music from my iCloud but my iPhone will... Any suggestions on how to fix this?

My iCloud will download songs to my iPhone if I go into my music app there. However when I go into music on my ipad it says there is no music and I can't download from iCloud either onto my ipad. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

I am currently having the same problem with music that is downloaded to my laptop and stored into itunes/itunes match which is not downloading to my ipad. I had this same problem a few months a go and it was fixed with a update to my ipad but it has happened again with most recent update. The bad thing is I didn't notice until I went to listen to the music on my ipad and it was available. Apple is becoming very unattractive to me. I am in search of a diffrent device.

New Computer- XP to windows 7 and I transfered my music with an external hard drive and will not locate the music. How do I fix this?

I just copied all my itunes mucis folders onto my external hard drive and copied them over to my new windows 7 computer and I itune cannot "locate" the music. How do I fix this?

I suspect your library has been transformed from the old layout into the new one. See make a split library portable for details. The empty but for artwork folders you're seeing are likely to contain orphaned artwork and .ini files generated at some point by Windows Media Player. iTunes doesn't move these when it shuffles things around. Once you've made sure you can move the artist folders sideways or down into another folder, make sure nothing else has been affected, then remove.

Itunes will not load entire music library only random songs to iPhone

My iTunes will only load random songs and not my entire library to my iPhone.

Beatport sells a choice of WAV or MP3. I have bought MP3s from Beatport and they added to iTunes without a problem. Just in case there is something going on with the files, try treating them with a 3rd party tag cleanup program such as MP3 Validator.
