One of my favorite bands no longer appears in iTunes 8

After downloading iTunes 8 and setting up the genius playlist feature, one of my favorite bands no longer shows up when I go to browse music -> all genres -> all artists -> all albums. The band is not in the "artist" category and the songs and albums are not in the "album" and song lists. The only way I can find the music (at least it's still there) is if I go to the "Alternative & Punk" genre, then "Compilations", and then I must search for the CD's.
The name of the band is "Die Ärzte" (It's a German band)
I noticed this the other day by accident, and now I am wondering if I will not be able to find other songs in the future that I may have forgotten about because of this same issue.
Does anyone know why it moved it, and can anyone tell me how to put it back so it is on the main list of everything?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
EDIT I have done some more searching, and the music appears in the list of all songs, but the band is still not listed as a choice to sort by. I have also already found a few other bands that do not seem to be a choice to sort by, but are in the list of all songs.

Nobody can help me with this? It seems like a pretty big deal to me...I can't believe nobody else is having the same issue.

In the iPhone maps app, the favorite selection no longer appears on my iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.2

I recently noticed that the "favorites" selection no longer appears when I tap the search bar in iPhone 6 maps. I need to enter the address every time. It seems like the address is stored, just no longer visible as a selection. Recent places also are no longer visible. I believe this was working before the upgrade to 8.1.2. Any suggestions?

Try saving some of your recent places into Favorites to see if that will then appear in that page. You could also try resetting your phone as described below:
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
Did you set up your phone as a new user, or did you load a backup file?

IPOD no longer appears in Itunes

My Ipod is no longer appearing in Itunes. Everything was working fine last week, then all of sudden, I am no longer able to see my Ipod in Itunes.
The Ipod is running the latest firmware. It was updated with the latest Updater. Itunes is the latest version.
Unplugging, replugging does not work.
The Ipod battery is 100 % charged.
The ipod does not even appear in My Computer.
The Ipod works fine with existing songs that are downloaded on it.
The Ipod was working fine last week on the same computer. For the longest time, it was not working. Last week it worked. This week it no longer works. What is going on here?
Why would the ipod all of a sudden stop working with Itunes on my computer?
Cheers,

A USB flash drive was added to my computer.
okay, let's check on this possibility then (there's also a link to it in one of the articles that Mr Bond referenced):
Windows confuses iPod with network drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
what i'm thinking here is that it is possible that you've usually got a drive letter confusion. (so your PC doesn't recognise the ipod). but when that drive was added, it changed around the drive letter assignments. so you stopped having the drive letter confusion with the ipod (and you could recognise it again). when it was taken back off the system, the drive letter assignments changed again. so you went back to having the drive letter confusion problem with the ipod.

Some, but not all, podcasts existing on the iPod no longer appear in iTunes. Different podcasts have been affected at different times, after changes in the state of the iPod. Only podcasts are affected.

I have not seen this precise issue addressed anywhere. I don’t know if it’s an iTunes or an iPod problem:
- Some, but not all, podcasts existing on the iPod no longer appear in iTunes;
this, after normal behavior for more than a year since purchase of the iPod.
- Different podcasts have been affected at different times, after changes in the state of the iPod.
- Only podcasts are affected.
- This concerns an iPod nano 6th gen. and iTunes 11.0.2 (26) on System 10.6.8
- The only change to iTunes, the Mac, or the iPod is that just before this condition began
I’d begun syncing an iPhone via iTunes.
I sync manually (“manually manage music and videos”). The first time this happened, I wanted to delete seventeen podcast episodes (all belonging to one podcast) existing on the iPod — but they didn’t show up in iTunes. I tried re-downloading them and re-syncing, to see if the new versions would somehow “re-link” to iTunes. They didn’t. Only one — new — episode appeared in iTunes.
I ultimately reset the iPod and manually resynced all the podcasts I currently had on iTunes. That worked, though I had to painstakingly add in all the other content deleted by the reset.
So: after that reset and manual sync, all podcasts and episodes on the iPod were visible to iTunes and I was able to delete the podcast and its — now 18 — episodes I’d wanted to get rid of to begin with. But the next time I connected the iPod, only 8 podcast episodes out of 21 episodes total existing on the iPod were visible to iTunes. These are different podcasts; I’d deleted the original “invisible” ones.
By “visible,” I mean in the “Podcasts” list view under “[name]’s iPod” in the iTunes sidebar. If I select “[name]’s” iPod in the iTunes sidebar and the “Podcasts” tab, all podcasts and episodes are visible, though greyed out because I’m set to sync manually. It’s unclear to me if these are the podcasts on the iPod or those currently in iTunes, as they are currently the same. If I switch to syncing automatically, all content on the iPod will be lost again, so I’m not up to trying it at the moment.
As I said, this involves only podcasts. All other content on the iPod does appear in iTunes.

I have the same problem- i see my movies in the ipod section in itunes and they even show as mpeg4 in the 'kind' section but they dont have that small TV icon next to them. if i play these in itunes, they play fine- but try playing them on the ipod and all you hear is the sound and no picture. All videos that i manually transfer work fine in the beginning- its when i hook up the ipod to the comp again and start itunes- they start showing up without the 'tv' icon!! i have to again transfer them from the itunes library to activate them as videos.
Need Help!!!

Question: ipod no longer appears in itunes and my computer.

iPod Nano no longer appears in iTunes or in my computer. Songs are there but the device is not recognized

Okay. I was going to say....
What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?
How to reset iPod
Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer appears in iTunes 10.

Hi there, my Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer appears in itunes 10.
I have looked at as many of the forums as I can and I have followed all the advice to reset Apple TV, router and PC. No joy. I have then restored Apple TV, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, checked router ports etc. but still no joy.
The Apple TV is connected to my network just fine (I can download movie trailers etc.), my PC is connected to the network just fine (itunes store opens and I can shop). However, the Apple TV does not appear in the devices list on the LHS of the itunes window, there is no Apple TV tab in preferences and I cannot locate my library (not listed) on the Apple TV.
Basically I have tried everything I can find to try to solve this, but no joy. Please can someone help me as this is driving me crazy?

If you've reset AppleTv, have you actually set up the sync/share computer again?
If not go to Settings>Computers and add a new library - a 5 digit code will appear for you to enter in itunes.
The top computer entry in the list syncs and streams, the others only stream. If you plan to purchase anything make sure you have an entry for sync/stream as streaming only libraries may not transfer AppletV purchases.

My iPhone 4 no longer appears in iTunes. But it does charge. Tried most tips please help someone!

Hi there,
No I didn't. Someone suggested in another thread that my iPod was registering as a disk instead of a device, so if I removed my iPod as a disk on Disk Utility then it would reload etc. and show up in iTunes. Which it didn't, and instead just cleared all my music (16,000 songs).
So frustrating.
Hope if you have the same problem you are able to find a better solution!

Apple TV no longer appearing in iTunes

after months of working flawlessly, Apple TV is no longer syncing to iTunes. It does not appear under Devices. I have checked the Preferences Apple TV tab and although it is set to Look for Apple TVs, none appear. On the Apple TV I checked the network settings and they are correct. I am able to view Movie Trailers therefore I can confirm that the connection is good. I have looked for the device on two computers (an iMac G5 and a MacBook) and it appears in neither. The iMac is on Tiger and this is the one that was previously synced to the Apple TV. The MacBook is on Leopard. On the MacBook (Leopard) I added iTunes and iPhoto to the firewall, still nothing. I have read some people suggesting "Changing the iTunes Library through Apple TV, but that only works if it shows up under Devices which it currently does not.
Thanks in advance for your help.

It's not supposed to be.
You view the items in iTunes from your AppleTV.
Apple TV is available on all other IOS devices (iphones and Ipad) and works great. Apple TV has has internet connection.
Do you mean you want to use AirPlay to push to the TV (instead of using the ATV to view what is in iTunes)?

MacBook is 10.10.2 upgrade, iPod no longer appears in iTunes.

Hi, since upgrading my Macbook pro to latest software OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 my iPod classic is no longer recognised in iTunes. It shows as connected on iPod and can be found in disc utility and as an external source but nothing at all in iTunes. Have read lots of other posts and the apple help without success. I have no updates available in app store. Tried multiple iPod resets, mac restarts and different usb leads/ports.
Can anyone please help?
upgraded to 10.10.3 now too but made no difference.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

A USB flash drive was added to my computer.

Songs I have on iPhone now no longer appear with iTunes Match

I had some albums on both my Mac and my iPhone. Now with Match, the album doesn't appear on my iPhone—even though I manually had uploaded it.
Match also doesn't load up all my music: I have a mere 2,400 songs—and the last 100 songs have been a nightmare. Over 24 hours, and it still hasn't completed uploading them, even though I have high-speed internet.
Furthermore, how come playlists now appear on my iPhone—but there are no tunes in the playlist?
The IDEA of Match is great—but it's not being executed right.
Apple—HELP! Fix these problems—which should never have appeared in the first place.

I have the same problem. I have over 1500 songs that I added from my CD collections, and another 1000 songs that are downloaded. The majority of songs have not "matched" - over 1500 show as "waiting" and now I cannot access most of the music from my iphone. I am so sorry I ever added iCloud!
I tried updating the itunes software last night and the songs all reappeared in the lists under the device. But then when I left home they no longer appeared on my iphone. What is wrong with iCloud and how did Apple release this with ths many problems? This service is terrible.
