Music not showing up under artsit

I have music on my ipod that does not all show up under the artists name. so in other words, if i go to the artist to listen to all their music i cant. because some of the albums are not there. in order to listen to certain albums, i then have to search for the album individualy to listen to it. all the information is correct regarding the data for the songs beacuse its all likened corretcly in itunes, just not transferring to my ipod correctly.

I have the same issues, when I let itunes find my music, i get dupes.... I have posted a question similar to yours. No one has answered my question, and yours is back in april. I think this fourm is usless due the the fact of how many people has the solution for these issues. Apple doesn't help either.

Music not showing up under "artisits"

OK, not sure what's going on with my iPod, it's brand new and I've been putting my music on there. Here's the problem, certain songs will not be sorted under "Artists". It will show up under "Songs", so I know it's there, but it's not being sorted under artist. (Yes, the artist is typed exactly the same and no, there isn't a double being shown in the list of artists)
Does anyone know what's going on?

Manually synced music not showing up under the artist

When I manually add songs to my iphone 4 from my iTunes library they are not showing up on my phone under when I go to the artist. Oddly, when I search for the song title the song will come up and it plays, and it shows the artist name correctly when it is playing. I updated both iTunes and the phone. I've done a reset. I've deleted the songs in question from the phone and then re-added them, only to have the same problem.
This problem doesn't happen with every song I add, but it always happens to the same songs. When I sync the phone, I can find them in the phone window of iTunes and they're there correctly sorted by artist (and play fine)! These songs are CD imports (not iTunes purchases). I have "manually manage music" on, and iCoud is off.
Thanks!

Are they marked as 'Part of a compilation' when you look at the song info on iTunes? This is quite common in some albums like soundtracks. If yes, then you'll probably find them under 'Various Artists' in the Artist section.
You can uncheck the compilation box if you wish, that should do the trick.

I am trying to download previously purchased music from iTunes, it show "purchased" in iTunes Store but does not show up under previous purchase tab

There are several albums that I've previously purchased that somehow were deleted from my computer & iPad. When I go to download available purchases on PC it say that all available punches have been downloaded. When I check iTunes Store it show as "purchased". When I try to check & download from iCloud via either iPad or PC these items do not show up under items purchased.
I can't even re-purchase the item, which I've tried since it shows as purchased in iTunes Store. This is very troublesome because there is no way for me to access these previous purchases. I have been using iTunes & various Apple products with the iTunes Store for several years & there is a lot of money invested in these previous purchases, that there is no way for me to access. As mentioned, I'd even be willing to re-purchase some of these items (though this should be unnecessary). But, the iTunes Store won't let me, because the items show up as purchased in store, but not on any of my devices!!!
Help!

Hey innerev2003,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If, while searching through your past purchases, items are unavailable to download and show a "Purchased" button, they are still on your computer. It may be best to search your iTunes library by clicking Music, then use the search bar at the top right.
If you are completely sure the items are no longer in your library, try signing out of the iTunes Store, and then back in.

ATV not showing up under devices in iTunes

I have synced this ATV with this Macbook in the past.
I am able to play music from my Macbook thru my ATV by selecting the ATV speakers instead of the Macbook's speakers.
I can play movie trailers on the ATV.
In iTunes>Preferences>ATV my ATV shows up and says it is syncing
I have updated my ATV and iTunes software.
However, it does not show as syncing on the home screen of iTunes and does not show up under devices on the left side. Any ideas?

Songs not showing up under artist

I have tagged all of my music acurately. When in itunes, all the songs that should be there show up when I click on an artist. Many are not showing up under the artist in my ipod though. The songs are on the ipod, because I can find them if I search by song. They even show the correct artist when I play them from the ipod. They just are not showing up when I search by artist????? Please Help!!

It could be that you have inadvertently imported these CDs into iTunes as part of a compilation. If so, the artists won't show in the artists menu on the iPod.
To check, highlight the tracks on one of the offending artists CDs in iTunes, right click and select "get info". This brings up a multiple song info window, and from there you can check if you have 'yes' in the box marked "part of a compilation".
If you have, select 'no' instead and click 'ok'. Do this with any CD that has this issue. This will alter the info in iTunes, and you should then connect your iPod and synchronize the changes.
The problem arises because the information contained on the Gracenote CD Data Base (where iTunes gets all it's album/artist/track info from), is sometimes incorrect. It can show CDs as compilations when in fact they are not.
You should also check that the songs have album name info in their ID tags.
See: Some songs don't don't show under artist on my iPod.

IMac Bluetooth keyboard not showing up under devices in my iPad

Even after I remove it from my list of iMac devices, if I touch a key on the keyboard, it reconnects to the iMac. So after I removed it from the devices on my iMac, I shut the iMac off to see if I could get it to work with my iPad (first generation) and it doesn't show up under bluetooth devices on my iPad. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong, or is it not possible to do this? I even paired (and unpaired) my iPad to my iMac. I followed all the directions to unpair/disconnect my keyboard from the iMac, but I still cannot get my iPad to find the keyboard under bluetooth devices.

IPhone Home Sharing Music not showing in iTunes

Hi All,
I have successfully set up Home Sharing on two separate iPhones using the same Apple ID and on my MacBook Air iTunes. I can view and play the Air's music library on both of the iPhones. However, in iTunes on the MacBook Air, the iPhones are not showing up under Shared. Actually, the "Shared" category is not showing up at all. Is there some reason the iPhone music libraries are not on the iTunes on the MacBook Air. How can I fix this?
Recap:
Home sharing set up on 2 iPhone and on laptop
iPhone can play laptop music as shared
iTunes on laptop does not show iPhone music libraries
iTunes on laptop does not show "Shared" at all.
Thanks!

Installing iTunes and logging in with an Apple ID has never caused content to magically appear.
The content is only where you put it.
Copy it from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.

My downloaded text sounds do not show up under the sounds tab in settings after installing 8.1.1. can someone help me please?

i downloaded a couple text tones and since installing 8.1.1, they will not show up under the sounds tab. in fact, they do not show up in my recent purchases on itunes, but when i go to buy them again, it says that i have already bought this tone. I just want to use the tones i paid for as the tones on my phone. not asking much.... thanks for the help. i hope someone can help me get the tones working. thank you.

This was happening to me too but only for some of my songs. I have a mac so I dunno about PCs, but for most of my ringtones I had to create an ACC version in itunes to make them short enough then turn that into a m4r and those all worked fine. But if the song was already short enough and I didn't create an ACC version and just turned the original into a m4r, then it wouldn't appear in my itunes.
so if you're on a mac:
1. go to get info, options, pick when you want the song to start and end.
     Has to be pretty short to work, 30 second or less is good
     if it's already short enough that's fine
2. right click and click 'create ACC version'
     a copy with the length you put in will appear, drag that into a folder or whatever and just type in m4r where m4a would be
     still make an ACC version even if it's the right length
Hopefully this helps someone else.

I just rented a video on my iPad, but it's not showing up under rented videos. Where do I go?

I just rented a video on my iPad and it's not showing up under rented videos. I have rented videos before. But don't know what to do. Help.

It should be in the Videos app
If not, are your age restrictions set up in the Settings >> General >> .......?
If your restrictions are turned on and you rented a PG18 rated movie or something, it won't show by design.

Network devices not showing up under "shared" in finder bar

Ok so i have a network that consists of a maxtor nas device, 2 win xp pc's, 1 win7 pc, d-link 524 router, and my macbook pro. I would like to be able to transfer files between my mac and the devices and use the printer attached to my maxtor. My issue is that none of the computers show up under the "shared" section of finder or under network. I use to have this issue with leopard but it resolved itself. Now under snow leopard for a couple months and i have yet to get it work. I can access my mac and other pcs from a pc. Anyone know how to get my network to show up on my mac?

Your problem is very common under Snow. At first my shares did not show up under shared in finder windows. I, then, of course, used "Connect to Server" to connect to the shares--both Mac and PC. I found that the more I kept the shares active the more likely they were show up under shared. Then, I discovered that if I kept the computers from sleeping during the period of needed access they would tend to stay in shared without nearly so much keeping the connections active.
If you do not like the above work around, then there are two other possibilities. You can elect to show mounted items on your desktop. Do that and connect to each share. Then, go > users > unlock > + login options > try dragging the mounted shares to the login item window. If successful, then the shares should be available at login.
Another approach is to mount and connect as indicated above. Then, making an alias to the share should at least make things faster.

My IPhone does not show up under Devices in I Tunes when I plug it into my computer. "Devices" no longer appears on the menu at all down the side of the page.

Windows media player files will not play. I downloaded the plug in but does not show up under plugins. Why won't it load?

Whenever I try to play a wmv file through firefox it will not load. It was not a problem a few weeks ago. Under plugins it is saying I do not have windows media player. So I tried downloading it using the troubleshooting directions from firefox. But it still will not show up under plugins. Any help would be much appreciated.

'''np-mswmp''' in your Installed Plugins listing ''(in '''More system details''' to the right of your posting)'' is the Windows Media Player plugin for Firefox.
