My library in iTunes all gone after updated to iTunes 12.0.1.26

I used to located my music library to my external hardest (seagate backup plus). After I updated new version of iTunes (along with OS X Yosemite), all the music library all gone.
By the way, it happen with MacBook Air mid-2013 13" 

You said you did a backup...
iCloud backup or iTunes backup?
Also, two suggestions for next time:
Software updates can be done right from your device, under Settings > General > Software Update if you have iOS 5 or later. This usually prevents a lot of problems users typically run in to when updating in iTunes.
When updating in iTunes, even though your restore may seem complete, it is still restoring your apps, music, etc. Please be sure that it is absolutely complete before unplugging.

  • Multiple speakers gone after updating to iTunes 10.1

    I received a new iPod Touch the other day and after being forced to update to iTunes 10.1 in order to use it, all of my satellite speakers -- hooked up to AirPort Express units -- disappeared.
    In order to get them back working again, I had to update my whole system to 10.6.5, unplug all of my AirPort Express stations and reboot them all, and then had to turn Home Sharing on in order to get the Remote app working again on my older iPod touch.
    My question is this: why was all of this necessary, Apple? When you force someone to use a certain version of your product in order to connect a device to your computer, you should be making **** sure it doesn't break all of the settings that already work.
    Over the past few years, it seems Apple has really being going backwards with their usability...

    You and me both! I stopped the Bonjour service and remote speakers returned per the post below. Hmm. I have Bonjour for Windows installed on all my machines except for a laptop running Vista RC1. That was the only one that the remote speakers didn't dissapear from. Apple software conflicting w/ Apple software? Say it ain't so!

  • Itunes wont open after update for itunes and ipod

    alright, so i have no clue what im doing. ive been going through this board looking for different solutions to my problem but nothing seems to be working and im running out of options.
    i was having troubles with itunes before, so i unistalled itunes and quicktime and reinstalled it, and i was still experiencing the same problems with having the program open. i uninstalled and reinstalled once more and then i got it to open and when i tried to update my ipod, it said i needed the new updater software, so i downloaded that. after all of that, my itunes won't open again and i dont know what to do anymore. i just want my stuff to work and nothing i seem to do helps with the problem.
    any ideas on what to do to get both itunes and my ipod to work again?

    Perhaps this Apple KnowledgeBase article will help:

  • My itunes libary has gone after updating itunes

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • After updating to itunes 10 i now get an error message saying there is a problem with the windows insaller package - I have tried all the suggestions but nothing works for me - have I lost all my itunes forever?

    After updating to itunes 10 I now get an error message that says there is a problem with the windows installer package. I have tried all the things that others suggested but cannot download itunes at all now. Have I lost itunes forever?

    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.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • How do i delete duplicates from my music library. After updating my iTunes the "Show Duplicates" option does not appear in the menu

    How do i delete duplicates from my music library. After updating my iTunes the "Show Duplicates" option does not appear in the menu

    If you are on Version 11.0.1 rather than 11 Apple put it back in
    View > Show Duplicates
    Option + View > Show Exact Duplicates
    so if you are on 11 upgrade to 11.0.1 and you will have it

    After updating my iTunes it no longer acknowledges that my iPod or iPhone is connected so I can't update my music.. I have followed all of these steps and everything is working fine but this new version of iTunes isn't recognizing my devices. Any advice?

    I have the same problem. Running Win 8 64Bit, updated to latest ITunes and now will not recognize phone or pad. Followed all advice from Apple (uninstall/restart/re-install, all in exact order) ... nothing. Spoke with Apple tech and walked through the whole process, but no resolution. Tech was trying to be helpful but has no way of addressing issue.

  • AFter updating to iTunes 11, my first generation Apple TV no longer automatically syncs when I open iTtunes nor does it display its playlists in iTunes.

    AFter updating to iTunes 11 my first generation Apple TV wasn't displayed any longer in iTunes. I had to relink it and after that it no longer automatically sysnc when I open iTunes, nor does it display its play lists. It still has its photos and play lists and it is linked up for streaming but does not sync as it used to do. Is it possible iTunes 11 doesn't support first generation Apple TV the same way it used to.?

    Yes, the first generation model still works with iTunes 11. It sounds as though you have set it up as a streaming only library.
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

  • HT5706 photos on screen saver gone after update of apple tv

    photos on screen saver gone after update of apple tv

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
    Why are you looking in a shared library, is itunes set up as a secondary library.
    See This
    If you are set up as a primary library you need to look in my tv shows.
    When you say you have reinstalled everything, does that include itunes (if so how did you do that), does it include rebuilding your itunes library.

    After updated to iTunes 11.1.4 for windows vista , I was unable to open iTunes and it keep error message. My iphone unable to USB hotspot the internet to computer. Pls Help

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
