No 'Name' Column under iPod in iTunes

'Name' column recently disappeared (undoubtably through user error). No 'Name' in 'View Options'. Uninstalled iTunes. Re-installed iTunes. Updated iTunes. Updated iPod software.
Still no 'Name' column.
What to do?
Thanks,
Matt

First thing, check Edit > View options
Check a box that isn't checked yet, and see if the name column shows up.
Another trick might be to right-click on any column header (Album, Year, etc) and tell iTunes to "Auto size all columns". Maybe you shrank the Name column by accident?

  • I want to amend the Itunes name for each IPOD we own. How is this done?

    I want to amend the Itunes name for each IPOD we own. How is this done?

    Do you mean the name of the iPod? For example "John's iPod touch"
    If you have iOS 5 or later, you can change the name from "Settings --> General --> About. Tap on "Name" and enter a new name.
    With iOS 4, connect the iPod to iTunes, and click the name for the iPod in iTunes in order to change it.

    Hi kylefromfairbanks,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    You can indeed change the name of your iPod in iTunes. The attached article refers to iOS devices, but the Using your computer section will show you how to change the name in iTunes.

  • I can no longer see my iPods names with the new look iTunes and also don't know where to sync it when I've added songs.

    The old  version I could see the name of my iPod but now I can't! I also used to be able to sync my iPod but I can't see anywhere to do this now! Any help greatfully received!

    The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
    In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    With iTunes 11.0.3 and later you can enable artwork in the Songs view from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view
    View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) also contains options to change the sorting of grid based views
    Turning on the sidebar should make things easier.

    What happens when you try to change the Shuffle's name from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes?
    Is your iPod set up to manually manage its contents.  For more information, see your iPod's User Guide.

  • Song title is incorrect in the "NAME" column in itunes, but correct at the top of the page for the song playing.

    All of a sudden most of the song titles under the "NAME" column in itunes is incorrect.   When I click on the file name it plays a different song but it points to the correct song elsewhere on the list.   Also it shows the correct song name at the top of the screen.  Is it possible to get the files under the NAME column to point to the right song?  This is happening on my PC windows 7.

    Move your mouse to the top of the Firefox window, then right click.
    You will see a menu of the available toolbars. Select '''''Customize'''''.
    In the new window, look for the icon. When you find if, hold down
    the left button on it, and move it to where you want it to be.
    You can move any of the icons you want from here, but some
    icons are locked in place.

  • Artist name shows under song name in itunes

    in my itunes library, in the artist view, i go to the artist i want to listen to, then all of albums show up, some albums, have the artist name under the song, i look at the info of the entire album(songs on that album) and the artist and album artist are the same(copy and paste both sections) Songs that have artist name under song, also have the same artist on other songs that don't have the artist name under song, When i go to my music, i right click on songs that have artist name under song in itunes, and it also looks the same as the ones that don't, I ACTUALLY LIKE IT BETTER IF THE NAME OF THE ARTIST APPEARS UNDER THE SONG, it looks nicer

    When you say adding your music again to your iTunes library, do you mean importing again from your cds, or have you used some other method to get the music from your iPod into iTunes?

  • I can't adjust the name column in iTunes

    I apologize if this has been asked, I looked but didn't find the question....I can't extend the column with the name of the track on my iPod.  I can do the other columns I have (name, size, time, etc..) but cannot do the name one, don't know why....the "cross" that appears where you can start dragging it, does not appear on the line where it should in the column header name.....help! 

    Hi all,
    Just FYI, iTunes 10 does now have the ability to move the Name column, in List (or Album List) view. If you so choose, your columns could now be in a left-to-right order that matches "real world" container hierarchies, track listings, etc. -- e.g., for Music-related Lists:
    <pre> Artist | Album by Artist/Year | Year | Disc # | Track # | Name | Time | ...</pre>
    with items being sorted by the 2nd column (i.e., 'Album by Artist/Year', which as always is available by toggle-clicking on the regular 'Album' column).
    (Although, be aware that iTunes 10 also introduces many other new icons, features, behaviors, etc., that seem to be quite unpopular, at least at the moment.)
    --P

  • ITunes will not display the correct name of my iPod

    Whenever I connect my iPod to iTunes, iTunes displays the name of the iPod as HP_Pavillion, which is not the correct name for my iPod, and if I open it, no songs or videos are displayed but iTunes says that 15.13 gb are used (also incorrect).
    If I eject the iPod, all of my songs are there and the correct name is displayed under settings.
    What do I do????
    John

    okay, with that set of symptoms we had better check on this possibility:
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear

  • TS4062 I can't sync music on my computer to my ipod touch; the ipod shows up under Devices in itunes but does not show buttons (Summary etc.) when I click on it. Suggestions?

    I can't sync music already on my computer to my ipod touch; the ipod shows up under Devices in itunes but does not show buttons (Summary etc.) when I click on it. I've read through all the Help tutorials but none of them say what to do if the sync options don't pop up when you highlight the device.  I've already spent way too much time trying to figure this out and it's driving me crazy!  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    This is correct.  It will not show in finder.  It is not an external storage device.
    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  Open itunes connect ipod, do not sync, click File>Transfer Purchases

    I have a 2nd generation Ipod.
    I have it connected to my computer and see (my name) ipod on my screen.
    Everytime I try to add a new song to the Ipod, this message comes up and I am not sure what to do:
    The Ipod, (my name) is synced with another ITunes library on A74F65. Do you want to erase this Ipod and sync with this ITunes Library?
    An Ipod can be synced with only one ITunes library at a time.  Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this IPod with the contents of this ITunes library.
    Then it asks me if I want to delete and sync.
    I am not sure what to do for fear of erasing everything I have put on my Ipod.
    I would appreciate if someone could help me out. 

    If I understand you correctly, you are trying to use iTunes to play the Music in your iPod but which is not in your itunes library. I don't think Apple design iTunes for use in your way. As to put and play music in iPod, the music has to be in iTunes first, so you play music in the iTunes music Library. the window with Ipod music is just to show you which music are already in the Ipod, in case you want to Manually Manage your huge music library.
    Here is the iPod/iTunes manual from the Apple Support Site.

    Hi lindaasw,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Do you have the latest version of iTunes for Windows installed?  I would turn on the sidebar and the menu bar just to make sure you are seeing everything.  If the iPhone is still not recognized in iTunes, follow these troubleshooting steps:

  • HT1386 How do I create one Apple ID and iTunes user name and password for all of my Apple products: iPad, iPhone, and iPod plus iTunes on my PC?

    How do I create one Apple ID and iTunes user name and password for all of my Apple products: iPad, iPhone, and iPod plus iTunes on my PC?

    Yes, I do have multiple devices and it appeared to me that every time I tried to sync or log onto iTunes, the password was incorrect.  Consequently, I was and am constantly changing it.  Wouldn't it be nice if Apple would simply say that you only need one Apple ID and one password regardless of the number of Apple devices you intend to sync via iTunes. 
    Barring the above, how about a way to merge all of the Apple IDs and passwords into one.

  • I was updating my iPod touch to 4.2.5 when an error occurred and now my iPod is not recognized by my computer or under devices in iTunes.  My iPod is also stuck on a screen saying to connect to iTunes.  I tried resetting my iPod and it did not work.

    Please help!  I was updating my iPod to 4.2.5 and iTunes said that it was preparing my iPod for update.  Then an error popped up and now my computer won't recognize my iPod and it doesn't show up under devices in iTunes.  All it has on my iPod is a picture of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to the iTunes logo.  I tried resetting my iPod and it just restarts to the same picture.  I tried restarting my computer as well.

    What was the error number?  That would be very useful since the following gives actions for various errors.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Try manually placing the iPod in recovery mode to see if that will make the iPod visible in iTunes.  See:
