New version of iTunes won't sync with Windows Media library.

Have just installed newest version of iTunes on Windows 7 PC, and also added new music to library in Windows Media Player.  For some reason iTunes is no longer syncing with WMP as it did in the past.   How to fix?

When iTunes is first installed it will offer to scan the computer for content. Thereafter you need to actively add content to the library, either by ripping or downloading with iTunes, adding to the Automatically Add to iTunes folder, using the Add File to Library or Add Folder to Library menus, dragging and dropping into iTunes, or playing from Windows Explorer if iTunes is the default media player. There is a tool call iTunes Folder Watch which some people use to automate this process, there may be others. iTunes doesn't do it out of the box.

  • Creative Zen V Plus won't sync with Windows Media Player 11?

    My Zen V Plus won't synchronize with Windows Media Player . I plug it into the USB, then an error message pops up in WMP that says "WMP has encountered a problem and needs to close" but if I just move the window aside WMP works fine. I then click 'sync" and it says "preparing to sync" but doesnt move beyond that. I have synced with WMP before, this problem has recently started occurring. I have all the firmware updates on my player, I don't know what is causing this problem.

    Pretty sure there never was iTunes 4.2.1 and if there was, it did not work with the iPod touch (any version).
    Do you mean iOS 4.2.1?

    Need some help: my itunes won't sync with my iphone anymore. Both softwares are up to date and I've reinstalled itunes. After I reinstall, it syncs. But then when I reboot my computer, it no longer syncs anymore and I have to keep reinstalling itunes. Thoughts???

    thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess. 
    That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
    Either way your welcome and best of luck!

    I can't get new versions of itunes to install on my windows computer. Any Suggestions? Every time I try, it downloads OK but when it proceeds to the install, I keep getting the same error message about a program in the installer not finishing as expected.  It quits the install and that's that.  Very frustrating.

  • Is there a version of iTunes that is compatible with Windows 8.1?

    Is there a version of iTunes that is compatible with Windows 8.1?

    Thanks! The procedure worked great for me (using iTunes 10), however there was one caveat. I also had to edit “AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi” with Orca and change the entry in “LaunchCondition” from
    VersionNT64>=600
    to
    VersionNT64>=501
    in order for the Device Manager driver update procedure to work, and iTunes to recognize my iPhone4. Prior to doing this, only “digital still camera” was displayed in the “imaging” entry in Device Manger. Once I did the above, “Apple Mobile Device USB Driver” was listed, and the procedure worked as written.

  • New version of Itunes is having problems with crossfading songs, it doesn´t work.  How do I fix that?

    I installed the new version of Itunes (10.5.2.11) and I have a party playlist in wich I need the songs to crossfade for the music to continue playing non-stop.  The problem is that even when the crossfade option is activated, it doesn´t crossfade songs.  And when it does, the last song played, keeds playing in backgroung from star, so you hear 2 songs at the same time.
    Also, I uninstalled the current version an installed an older version, but it won´t let me open the program, becouse "the iTunes Library was created in a newer vewrsion"
    HELP PLEASE!!!!
    Diego

    It seems that this is a MAJOR issue with MANY end users experiencing the exact same problem - iTunes 10.5.2.11 Crossfade is completely buggy.  Apple, get it together, seriously...your QA department should all be fired for this.
    Diego, there are numerous threads replicating your problem.
    So far, there are a few work arounds:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3408812?start=0&tstart=0
    One thing to keep in mind, at least what has worked for me: After you make a change to the crossfade timing, you must close out of iTunes and re-open before the new settings take place.
    Crossfade timing = 12 seconds actually equates to about 50 seconds.
    Click the slider, then use your arrow key to tick over about 20 times - this should crossfade your songs approximately 6 seconds before ending.
    Apply, then close out and re-open iTunes...
    Peruse through the link above, there are different approaches.  Maybe one will work for you.
