Music goes missing - What am I doing wrong?

I am new to itunes and have a problem. I added music to itunes and synced to my ipod touch and closed the program. When I go back into itunes my music is not there. What am I doing incorrect?

Im not sure what garage band is, but i can tell you the way apple recommends making ringtones. Highlight a song in iTunes, right click and select get info. Goto the options tab and youll see the time lengths (write down the ending time) for the start time type in where you want the ringtone to start, ringtones can only be 30 sec long so make the ending time 30 sec later. Exit it out of the info and while song highlighted goto the "advanced" tab at the top of iTunes where you will see an option that says "create aac version". after creating the aac version you will have a duplicate song in your iTunes, change the original back to the correct time length. Take the 30 sec aac version and drag it to your desktop, right click the icon and click "preferences" You will then be able to change the name of the file which will be somethign to the effect of "songnamehere.m4a" you just change the m4a to m4r. you now have a ringtone, drag the new file to iTunes where it will pop up in a new tab labled ringtones. If you cannot change the name of the file when it is on your desktop let me know and i will give you instuctions how to be able to change it. Once you get it figured out you can use any song you have on iTunes to make a ringtone.

I can't load my music!! What am I doing wrong?

My computer crashed a few weeks ago, and I just got it working again. When I installed iTunes 8, I got everything that it came with (library, iTunes store, that Genius stuff). But when I plugged in my iPod Nano to put my music on iTunes, it won't show up in my library. The library is just blank.
All of my music is on my iPod, but I can't seem to put it on my iTunes library.

Well for a start you’re posting on the iPhoto forum and not the iTunes for Windows forum.

How about performing the update IN the database using a stored
procedure?
By using non-database fields on your form to get the
information, you can then call the procedure in the database to
perform the updates. If an error occurs in the procedure you
rollback, if necessary, and send a message or status back to the
form. If it succeeds you might wish to commit and then re-
execute the form's query -- using either the original key values
or the new key values...

ICloud/iMatch keeps adding duplicates to my iTunes music folder? What's going on? What am I doing wrong?

Every time I open iTunes, iMatch keeps adding duplicates for some -- not all -- of the files in my music folder. Each gets a little cloud-with-exclamation-point next to the duplicate. If I manually remove them, they pop up again the next time I open iTunes. The actual files are not duplicated in my local music folders.
What am I doing wrong? Could it be related to the Error 50 message (Cannot save library) I get sometimes. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, which stopped that message for a few weeks, but now it's reappearing after I manually deleted all the duplicates.
This is driving me crazy.

What have you tried?
You opened itunes?
Connected ipad?
Went to the music tab?
Selected sync music and selected the music to sync?
Synced?

Hello there, gleab.
The following Knowledge Base article reviews the ways to import content into iTunes:
Adding music and other content to iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
Also keep in mind which formats can be added:
You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

I create a playlist with songs that I purchased from itunes and when I try to sync it to my iphone some of the songs are missing but when I go to the playlist in itunes the song is there. What could be happening? What am I doing wrong?

I've created playlists with songs I've purchased from iTunes and also added songs I've purchased from iTunes to existing playlists. Everytime I go to sync the playlist to my iPhone I find some of the new songs missing from the playlist. I've deleted the playlist from the phone and reinstalled it. I don't know what I"m doing wrong. Anyone have any idea what could be the problem?

Wondering if you haven't been bitten by the new "feature" of iOS 5, as was my son. turingtest2 explained it very well in reply to my own query about "missing" songs in playlists.
Here's that thread...

I have set up a second iTunes user account on my PC, but when I create the new iTunes account it copies the music, videos etc from the original account and they seem to be linked. What am I doing wrong?

I have set up a second iTunes user account on my PC, but when I create the new iTunes account it copies the music, videos etc from the original account and they seem to be linked, so that when I delete a song from one library it deletes from the other one.
On the online tutorials I've seen it shows that when you create a new iTunes library it should open as a blank account, but that isn't happening.

If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
If necessary:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

I dug a little deeper and found this:
It is the Voice Memos in the Playlist check Box. Uncheck it and re-sync.
It helped this time on my iTouch and my iPhone! At least this time.

Due to recent security issues and identify theft (mostly due to phishing scams), the iTunes Store seems to be requiring more frequent verification of credit card information when a card is registered in your account, even if you have a balance from a prepaid card. Either just go through the verification process or, if you have a credit card entered and you don't expect to need the card anytime soon, go into the Payment information in your account and set the payment method to "none" which should then stop the regular requirements for verification (it may still ask - mine does - but you should just be able to click through the buttons without problems).
Hope this helps.

I have been trying to update my software for the past 3 hours. It just goes so far and stalls. I've never had this problem before, what am I doing wrong?

I have been trying to update my iPad2 for the past 3 hours. It just sets there doing very little and says its going to take 9 hours. What am I doing wrong? I've never had this problem before. Also can I update from any other computer? Just in case it is my lap top.

Do you get any error messages ? If you get a network timeout error when downloading the update then try temporarily turning off all your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed.
It's best to only update via your own computer, otherwise you risk losing all your iPad's contents - updating to iOS 5 wipes the iPad and then restores your backup. If you having problems downloading the update then you could try downloading the update file via a browser on another computer and then copying that file to your laptop for the actual update .

Hi, Mylenium,
Thanks for your prompt reply, I'm afraid it hasn't helped. I don't see anything wrong in my device manager.
I have also gone and updated every driver, especially the motherboard chipset and the Sata Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver.
Unfortunately, this hasn't made any difference.
Any other suggestions?
Many thanks in advance!
Hugo
