[iTunes11] New songs not appear in library

Hi everyone,
With the new itunes 11 I can't see new songs or new movies in my local library (adding from iTunes Store or finder)
I have a macbook unibody with snow leopard.
I found a workaround : disable iTunes Match => new songs (or other itunes files) appear instantly.
I'm very surprised that this bug was'nt fixed before the release of the iTunes 11, am I the only one with this bug ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Have a nice day
Jean-Cyril

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the external list not display the new item button.
When we have created a new external list, by default, the new item button would not appear in the form.
However, we can first create a new item using the new item button in the Ribbon.
Then, after we have created a new item in the external list,
the new item button would display in the form as below.
You can create a new item using the ribbon, then check whether it works.
Thanks & Regards,
Jason

HELP! New songs show up on Itunes and Purchased list, but will not show up on phone.

I've added some new songs to my Purchased list. They show up on iTunes, but do not add after being synced to my iPhone 4s! The sync goes through, but they don't show up on the phone at ALL. I've tried deleting and re-adding to Purchased, but it didn't work. The software is all up to date as well. Has this happened to anyone? What do I do?

Hello bm511
Try switching to manually manage music for your iPhone, then you can drag and drop the music that you want or even drag the playlist to add the song.

Imported CD Songs Only Appear In iTunes, Not On iPod Nano

Hi,
I bought my first iPod Nano, downloaded the iTunes software, and tried to import 2 songs from a cd. I have 2 issues which I need help with:
1. These 2 songs imported perfectly into iTunes, just as the manual described. But these 2 songs don't appear in my iPod. Please offer help with how to import these 2 songs into my iPod instead of just having them appear on iTunes.
2. Many additional songs (about 30?) somehow appeared on iTunes and were supposedly imported into my iPod. I unchecked each song and now these songs are off of iTunes. Why did these songs appear on iTunes in the first place? None of these 30+ songs are on the cd from which I unsuccessfully tried to import the 2 songs mentioned in question 1.
Thanks for any help which anyone can provide!
~ Mic.

Was your iPod connected to the computer already before you tried to import the two songs? If so thats why the songs didn't show up because the songs will only appear onto the iPod if you connect it to the computer after adding the songs. Plus the 30 songs that you said that showed up that weren't on the cd are most likely songs that you have saved on your computer with windows media player.

New episodes not appearing in iTunes

I have uploaded eight episodes total and only one is showing up in iTunes. I checked my feed on feedvalidator.org and the feed works fine. I also subscribed to the podcast and I am able to download all eight episodes but only the first episode shows up in iTunes on our podcast page. Since I am able to subscribe to the podcast and see all eight episodes I assume I am just waiting on iTunes to update my podcast page. Is that what is going on?
The podcast name is 'GQ on the law' and the website for the feed is http://gqonthelaw.podbean.com/
Any help you can offer is very much appreciated. Thanks!
Clint

Your iTunes Store page is at
http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/gq-on-the-law/id533007710
and the feed is at
http://gqonthelaw.podbean.com/feed/
(please always post these when you have a question to save detective work). The feed seems to be OK - I'm afraid it's just a question of waiting until the Steore catches up. It usually takes 1-2 days for new episodes to appear, but the Store (which caches the feeds and visits them periodically to checkfor updates) may check for feed which haven't been updated for some time less frequently - it's two months since the previous episode wasa published. It should update eventually.

Drag and drop new songs to playlist in iTunes 11

In iTunes 10 and below we were always able to add new songs to iTunes from Finder by just dragging and dropping into any playlist and it would automatically show up.
In iTunes 11, dragging and dropping new songs to a playlist from outside iTunes adds the songs but only into the "Songs" view. We have to take an extra step to select all the songs from the "Songs" list and put them onto each playlist. This is HORRIBLE and counter-productive since I have over 200 playlists and it takes much longer to add new songs.
Is there a way to have the songs STAY in the playlist without having to drag them from the "Songs" section? I love the new interface but this is just stupid. If I'm dragging songs onto the playlist I expect them to stay there, not require me to leave the playlist and find them in my library and come back to add it to the playlist. UGH.

I did activate the Sidebar, but even when I have my playlist selected via the Sidebar adding songs from Finder doesn't show up in the playlist. I have so scroll all the way up to the top and find what I just imported in the main Music section where it shows my entire library. Then from there I drag the newly imported songs to the playlist I wanted.
Sorry for the confusing description, It's probably much easier to show in person or something. But previously when I added new songs into a playlist the songs will automatically show up on the Playlist without me having to go to Music and find it in my entire library.

NEW SONGS NOT SHOWING IN ITUNES 11 LIBRARY

No new songs that i import are showing up in my iTunes Library!!!!! HOWEVER, I can view them in a playlist if I drag and drop them there from my desktop.
I don't understand why apple have to constantly keep updating and changing things that work perfectly fine, to these dysfunctional versions!!!
I cannot add any new music, nor can i create ringrtones as it does not allow me to add the AAC version to my library!
Someone please help!!!

Use the add to library function again, but just point the application to the iTunes library on the computer rather than the DVD backup.

How Long does it take for a NEW PODCAST to appear in iTunes?

I was curious if maybe you know the answer to this question- How long does it take for a brand new podcast, once submitted to iTunes, to appear in the podcast section of iTunes? Does it really take 5 days? And, will I receive an email once it's on there? Thanks!
-hdtvguru

Hi,
I found the answer to this question after doing two podcasts.
It takes about week and half to be fully listed. When you first submit you receive an automated email. Emailed to the email address of your podcast feed. Then your podcast page is created for itune store and you receive another email that it's approved. You should receive this email sometimes two days after you received the first but it still won't be browse able until another few weeks(ie. listed in category). In the mean time don't remove your podcast feed file from your hosting account and don't make changes which will change the link to the feed you submitted.
The only other part I couldn't figure out was why podcasts episodes don't come up when keywords from episode sections of podcast feed are typed in itune search box.
-keep on keepin' on

Cannot transfer new songs from iPhone to iTunes.

After switching to iCloud my iPhone automatically created a new Playlist and all new songs purchased on my iPhone were downloaded into that new Playlist. Now that entire Playlist is not syncing into my iTunes on my PC. I tried "Transfer Purchases", "sync", etc. What to do?

Have you installed the iCloud control panel on your computer (assuming that you have a Windows computer)?
This iCloud functionality may be missing from your pc/iTunes, no?

Songs dont appear on phone.

I recently got my phone exchanged under warranty. The new phone came with os 4 so required updating. Having updated it appears that all my music has synced ( 10 of 13gb used on phone ) but very few songs appear to be on there when phone is in music mode. Where are they if not on phone and why is the phones memory so full if they are not there???

I have the same problem. I have music files from my old computer and transferred it to the one where my phone is synced. Itunes plays it well but if I transfer the file to my phone, it's just greyed out with a broken circle beside it. It's driving me nuts because I was able to transfer before the latest iOs update came. Now everything is screwed up.

Songs dont appear under the artist name on the ipod....

When i put a song on itunes, it appears under the artist and the song name but when i look for it on my iPod under the artist name, it doesnt show up. Where is the song?

I went to that link but it doesnt seem to help. In itunes I have made sure that the song title, album and artist name are already in there with the correct spelling etc. In itunes all the info is there. When I look for the artist in my ipod it doesn't show up. I can find the album and the individual songs but the artist is not there.
Also...Songs in my itunes have all been organized and did the "get info" thing but some of the same artist appear several times on my ipod. I made sure everything is spelled correctly and the same for the same artist name, I have done resets and restore on the ipod, I deleted all the music out of itunes and then reinstalled it but I am still having the problem with certain artists...not all of them just randomly some. And it is continuing to happen with some new mp3s I am adding. What is going on with that???
Any help would be greatly appreciated...I have only had my ipod 3 weeks!!! If there is something wrong with it I want to return it and get a new one or is it user error?
Thanks to anyone that can help.
