No content in some itunes genres

Ihave been having problems with this for the past few months, but just upgraded to a new Iphone and still the problem persists. I have a large music folder of over 7000 sonds which I synced to my iphone. When I search for some of the music via genres it seems that some of the genres are empty, telling me there is "No Content" even though I am sure the songs have synced over. Also in itunes my music is sorted into genres, but when they transfer on to my iphone, so of the albums are all over the place and not in the genre they should be. Does anyone know how this can be corrected. It used to be fine, but seems to have gone wrong after an update somewhere along the line ????

Your iOS devices can sync with your iMac using Wi-Fi - this will copy the items you select to sync to your iPhone and iPad.
But this kind of syncing  is not working between Macs. There you need iTunes Match to sync your iTunes Libraries between the Macs with iCloud. Alternately, you can simply copy the library to the other Mac.  (Moving your iTunes library to a new computer)
To restore your other media, you can download past purchases - see:  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Some of the content in my Itunes library has the "!" next to them and is unable to play the songs as it says the source is no longer available

    Some of the content in my Itunes library has the "!" next to them and is unable to play the songs as it says the source is no longer available, yet on an old Ipod the same tracks are available and play fine?
    I would love to know how to consolidate all my music and be able to play it without one device saying they are unavailable yet another device says they are?
    Also how obsurd is it for Apple to charge for supporting their devices! Or is that just me?

    Have you tried using spotlight.

  • I get a message saying some of the itunes files cannot be copied to my ipod b/c i can only have content from 5 itune accounts. what can i do to put the content i bought?

    i get a message saying some of the itunes files cannot be copied to my ipod b/c i can only have content from 5 itune accounts. what can i do to put the content i bought?

    Obviously that's your problem.  As the message states, five is the maximum supported.

  • I'm trying to purchase extra content on some of my apps and it says "contact iTunes support to complete this transaction." how can I fix this? My credit card is valid and I've made extra content purchases before and it's worked.

    As I replied in your duplicate thread, these are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here.
    You can contact iTunes support via this page :http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then probably Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Content purchased from iTunes store are downloaded but do not show up in library (iTunes 11) even after manual add

    Hi all,
    I upgraded to iTunes 11 recently and have now purchased some additional content from the iTunes store. The files have been downloaded but do not show up in my library. A search yields some results but I cannot access the songs in my library nor can I add them to 'up next' although the option is available from the search results menu.
    First thing I tried was to add them again manually but the problem persists. Any clues?
    Thanks and Best
    Frank

    OK, I found a solution. Here it goes, just in case anybody else comes across this issue:
    I deleted all the relevant entries from the iTunes Libary.xml AND iTunes Music Library.xml files (with iTunes closed, of course) and removed the files on the harddrive library structure to another location. I then restarted iTunes and added the album manually to my library again. In my case, I got iTunes to handle my library and the files were thus copied back to my old structure by the iTunes. To finish I reimported the album artwork and that was that.
    Hope that I won't encounter this issue with future purchases under iTunes11, this workaround IS a bit of a hassle!

  • Missing file content in new iTunes

    I downloaded the new iTunes on my Windows 7.  Many of my music files now only have the title of the song.  The content, including album, artist, genre, etc is still with the file in Windows Explorer but not with the song on iTunes.  Because of this none of my songs are categorized into their correct albums and artists.  How do I get the content that is on my computer to show in iTunes?

    And if you remove from you iDevice one app that should appear on File Sharing and sync and then add it back and sync again...

  • Why can't I change the content for some songs when I click the Get Info button?

  • My 32gb Touch was stolen but have content stored in iTunes.  Can I sync all content including notes, calendar, apps, etc to the iPhone 3GS?

    My 32gb iPod Touch was stolen but have content stored in iTunes. 
    Can I sync all content including notes, calendar, apps, etc to the iPhone 3GS 16gb? 
    And, will the data that was stored on the iPod Touch be recovered?!  Obviously I will have to unclick some of my photos and music for example in order to fit content onto the iPhone 

    If you had synced the ipod to the itunes yes
    connect your iphone to itunes and then under devices u'll see iphone right click and u'll see restore backup

  • Remove itunes genres

    Hi all..
    how do you remove un-used genres in the Get Info list ?
    I've sees suggestions on here already and all of then do work, you can even leave the field blank, and it will be removed, probably the quickest way, but unforunatly all of these require that content be present in the first place.
    The Genre list will  show the Genres you have created but ONLY ones you've added to iTunes Libary ...
    Therefore, it will NOT shows genres for for an empty libary.....  This is what i'm up against.... 
    I have a whole heap of genres, but my library is empty..... as i removed files to rebuild..... However, I am unable to delete all generas, since not all are displayed only the last one i removed.... However, there should be about 100+ generas i created and they will show up in the list, but only when adding the file back into iTunes..
    Can I just remove the genres sepereatly ?   I tried the Localized file in the iTunes.appp >> Contents >>> Rsources >> ...... but it didn't help, since i can't tell my own custom id's (if they would be in there).
    Apple also pointed to me to the genre.plist in itune.app >> Contents, but thid din't do anythhing either
    Apple's realy locked iTunes down to the point you can eaisy add your own Genres, but you can't remove them unless the assosiated file belonging to that genre is present in your iTunes Library.
    Or maybe 'm just overlooking something here

    http://www.dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=degenre
    De-Genre is a script that re-assigns the Library tracks of selected Genres to another Genre so that the original (and consequentially un-assigned) Genres disappear from iTunes' Genre pop-up list.

    This is an older set of directions for editing the genres included in iTunes. I don't know if it still works with newer versions, and make sure you back up your computer before doing editing of this kind because unpredictable things can happen:  Editing iTunes application to remove default genres - http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=2007020311224154 - added tips: "the 'Genres' section is near the bottom of the 'Localisation string'" & "Right click iTunes and click show package contents"

  • I received a gift card and when I redeemed it an error message said that I had some itunes files missing and that I needed to reinstall itunes.  Will I still have all my credits when I download itunes?

    I received an online gift card for Father's Day.  When I tried to redeem the gift then I received a error message saying I had some itune files missing and I needed to reinstall/download itunes.  Will I still have my previous purchase credits after downloading and reistalling itunes? 

    You will, because the credited funds are on your iTunes account, not the application. When you reinstall iTunes just configure it with your old iTunes account and your credits will be there waiting for you.

  • I can't log into my iTunes account. I logger out a few days ago to trouble shoot because I was trying to redeem some iTunes cards but when i pressed redeem nothing happened. Now when i press sign in and then choose existing Apple ID, nothing happens

    I can't log into my iTunes account on my iPhone 5s. I logged out a few days ago to trouble shoot because I was trying to redeem some iTunes cards but when i pressed redeem nothing happened. I then tried to log back in immediately afterwards. I was unable to do so. After clicking "sign in" at the bottom of the apps main page, it brought up another menu where I clicked "Choose existing Apple ID". After pressing this the menu disappeared and nothing happened. I tried this multiple times and received the same result each time. I tried the other available option of creating a new AP ID to log in with and that one worked perfectly fine. I am clueless as to why the log in for me is either not able to load or just completely blocking me from getting back into my iTunes account on my phone. Not only can I not listen to the music I currently have, but I cannot log in to purchase the new music that I wanted to with my unused iTunes gift cards

    I have the same problem too and tried alot of things like time zone , restarting or changing DNS of wifi connection to 8.8.8.8 still nothing happens .. !!

  • Since the latest update to OX I have been unable to download the contents of some emails because pages does not support the font they are created in. Is there a fix for this?

    Hi, since I installed the latest update on my Mac I have been unable to open the contents of some emails because it is saying that pages does not recognise the font. For example it is saying 'some features aren't supported, the font Calibri isn't available on OS X. It was replaced with TrebuchetMS' This means that I cannot open letters from my daughters school. Is there any way round this other than getting rid of this nightmare MAC and going back to Windows!?

  • Everything is updated!!  iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro...  All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices.  iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time!  What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!

    Why does iTunes SUCK??
    1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
    2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
    If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
    I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
    Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
    If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
    This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
    Please tell me I am not the only one!!
    ...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
    Very appreciated,

  • How can i transfer my iphone4 content to my itune Library

    How can i transfer my iphone4 content to my itune Library

    Just google it, there are lots of third party softwares that allows you to transfer data between your iPhone and your computer like iFunbox (which is free). You can transfer photos, app data, videos and other stuff. If you wan't to transfer photos though, you can use iCloud Photo Stream and download iCloud Control Panel for Windows and Mac. With it you can also view notes that you made from iPhone and transferred wirelessly through iCloud servers.
