Music Store Browse Music Function appears to re-direct to my library index

I typed "Sting" under music search, figuring that if any of "Stings" music was available in the i-Tunes music store, it would be displayed.. Wrong
I was directed to what appeared to be my own library index of windows at the top asking for "GENRE" information.
I do not remember this ever happening. I may have recentlty updated to the newest itunes version.
Any help would be appreciated, greatly.

Thanks Martin,
I did check that first. It's not the fact that I'm not accessing the music store library, the problem is that it appears that the only way that I can search for music is by starting with "Selecting Genre" first. I click on "Anime" & see that there are 5 selections in the store library (not in my library). When I type in an Artist Name or Song Name, I would expect to see the album with track listings or the song name with the different Artists that have performed that song. Seems logical doesn't it??
This was also happening with a friends computer. Did iTunes Music Store just recently change everything?!? Or is it my system? Inquiring minds need to know.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You have to download the purchased music, because now you can only listen to purchased music from iCloud. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519

  • Music directory appears empty, but it's

    I have a Creative Zen 32 GB.
    Firmware version .2.0
    Contains about 7 GB of music
    I've had it for about 3 weeks, and it worked great until last night.
    I listened to it for awhile yesterday afternoon, and then went to add some new music yesterday evening and ran into problems.
    I opened Windows Explorer to 'drag and drop' the new mp3's and the Music directory appeared empty from within WE. I've added new music this way previously, and I was able to see all the subfolders of mp3's on my Zen; it looked just like browsing folders with? WE on my computer.
    I unplugged the Zen, and verified that the music was still in the player, and it was.
    I plugged it back in, and tried the Zen Media Explorer. I ran into the same problem. The music directory appeared empty when I tried to browse it from the ZME.
    I went back to Windows Explorer and tried dragging and dropping a folder of new songs into the Music directory.
    It acted like it was copying them, but afterwords, WE still read the directory as empty.
    I unplugged the player and checked the music list, and the new songs were on there.
    I thought maybe it was my home computer (Dell Dimension 8250 running Windows XP w/ SP2), so I tried my work computer today (Dell Optiplex 755 running Windows XP w/ SP2), and got exactly the same results. Tried both Windows Explorer and Zen Media Explorer, and neither one would view the contents of the Music directory on the Zen.
    I downloaded the Recovery Tool and ran it. It upgraded the firmware, but that was all it did. I went back into Windows Explorer and Zen Media Explorer and there was no change. They both still show the directory as empty.
    It seems like the problem is within the Zen player, since I've run into the same behavior on two different computers.
    Has anyone out there run into a problem like this?

    Hi,
    (first of all: sorry for my bad English!)
    I have the same exact problem, the music files stills in the Player (with the Folder Icon too) and the Zen still them correctly, but in the Media Explorer the Music Directory Is Empty.
    Plus all the Videos and DataFiles (no multimedia files) have totally deleted from the player!!! (how it is possible?)
    In this scenario (files in the Player but not showed in the Zen Music Folder) i've add some new files (with the Creative Media Explorer), the player correctly puts these new files in the list togheter with existing files, but in the Media Explorer -> Music Folder i can see only the new added files.
    If i select Properties from Windows it tells me the right free space available (even if i couldn't see the files).
    There is something i can do instead of Format the Player? (i've update the firmware but didn't change the situation)
    Zen 8GB fw:.2.0e, no SD in the Player.
    Thanks
    Vahes?

  • Ive had a lap top from a friend, she cleared everything off it but ive downloaded itunes and all her music has appeared in the itunes library. How can i delete her music from the itunes library?

    ive got a laptop from a friend, she cleared everything off it. ive downloaded itunes and for some reason all her music has appeared in the library. How do i delete her music from the itunes libary so i can add my own music?

    In iTunes, select the music you want to delete (⌘+a to select all) and hit Delete on your keyboard.
    Also delete the music files in Finder. Also make sure you have your own Apple ID and iTunes account and logged in.

  • Music not appearing on mini ipod

    I bought my mini ipod 2 weeks ago. I loaded one set of music on it fine, but now i've updated my itunes library and am trying to transfer the rest of the music to my mini ipod. When I connect my ipod to the computer(it's set on automatic, but I've tried manual too to no effect) it says its updating music (takes about 45 mins) The updated music is appearing under the ipod in itunes, but it doesn't appear on the actual ipod. I've tried resetting the ipod, restarting my computer, using different USB2 ports etc but nothing works. Can anyone please help?

    Try this;
    Go to SETTINGS > MAIN MENU > MUSIC and set it to ON. Then, hit the MENU button several times to get back to the main menu & see if it's there.
    You can control what appears in the main menu in this settings menu. Apparently, your ;music' option has been turned off.
    Cheers!

    how do i delay the screensaver kicking in? I want to have the music function available without havingto constantly press slide to open. Ipod touch.  Thanks

    On the iPod, go into Settings/General/Auto-Lock and set that for the amount of time you want, form the choices given.
    However, a note of caution; this isn't a screensaver function, it's there to prolong battery life. The longer the screen is on before turning itself off, the more battery you are using and the shorter the time before you run out of power.
    There's possibly a better way for you to use you iPod than to keep the screen on. Why are you constantly going into the music function? If it's to select a new track, you could possibly use the Shake To Shuffle feature, which will select a new track at random when you shake the iPod. Alternatively, use the basic Shuffle feature. Or create a Playlist (on the iPod), where you can select the songs you want to play at that time, put them in one list and let the iPod play them.

  • How do I remove iCloud music function from iPhone?

    How do I remove iCloud music function from iPhone?

    Thanks, operative word here is hide.
    iTunes wants to keep music on the iPhone even after you want to clear it out and start over. I wish they had a "flush" function. At present after wiping it basically clean, down to one album, then checking the fill option, iTunes fills up the iphone with the same albums I just got rid of... I have a huge selection in my library to choose from. But it keeps returning to the same albums even though I have not checked them or artist. Frustrating.

    You cannot. This is so you can also play the audio for those.

    Go to the Store menu item on the menu bar, and choose Authorize This Computer, as shown below. 
    If by any chance you don't see the menu bar (File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, Help), first enable it by using CTRL+B.

    In my iTunes I have my music organized into playlists. Before when I synced my iPod to iTunes it exactly duplicated the music / playlists exactly as they appear in my iTunes. Now I have more music than my iPod can hold at once, so I've unchecked some songs within various playlists. The problem is that after I sync my iPod, it has all the checked songs, but they're no longer organized in the playlists. Can something be done to fix this?
    Delete some of your songs off of the iPod Nano to make more room.
