PDFs no longer work with iTunes and sync to iBooks

First off, the "Books" tab in the iPad/iPhone sync panel is woefully light. There need to be options to de/select all, organize by more than title/author, etc. That's a UI issue, not a bug, but worth mentioning.
However, I'm finding that PDF syncing to iOS devices is now broken alltogether. (Yes, it used to work for me)
When the Media Kind of the PDFs are set to "Book", they show up in the "Books" section of iTunes as expected, as well as the default list of available books for syncing in the iPad/iPhone Book sync panel. Oddly, they do not show in the list when "PDFs only" is selected from the pulldown list, and most importantly, they do NOT sync to iBooks on my iPad/iPhone.
(When the Media Kind of the PDFs is set to "Music", they do not show up in any lists.)

Me TOO: Since I updated iTunes to Version 8.1 I am unable to sync my Nano Generation 4. It gives an error message 'iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close'. I have been to the Apple Store twice, first time they restored my iPod and said it would be OK - it wasn't. Then they gave me a new iPod and said it would be OK - it wasn't. I don't think its the iPod!! I believe it is Version 8.1 as this issue only once I upgraded to the latest version.
I have removed and reinstalled iTunes and even tried to download an earlier version. Nothing works...
I am now left with a brand new iPod that I am unable to use!!!

  • Airplay no longer works with iTunes

    Airplay no longer works with iTunes 10.6; try to stream to speakers connected to Airplay device--use to work fine. Now, in iTunes, the icon in the bottom corner actually says 2 speakers, as it should, but when I open it it only shows speakers connected to computer directly. I have tried re-installing the AirPort utility and configuring it in every which way. I have tried turning off IPV6 in the network. Nothing seems to work.

    I noticed this too and think it's by design. The new master volume slider in the AirPlay window is set at the highest volume in your list of speakers. Drag either the master volume or your external speaker slider to max, and you should get normal volumes out of your Airport Express speakers.
    Unfortunately, the volume slider on the iTunes window seems to be the master volume now, rather than just the volume for the computer. So if you mute the computer using that slider, you mute all speakers. To mute just the computer, you have to do it though the AirPlay speaker list now. Unless I'm missing a preference setting somewhere... thought there used to be something in iTunes or Airport Utility that let you toggle this behavior, but I don't see anything now...

    Apple ID has my old email address. It will not allow me to change the address and will not accept my password or ID questions.   I recently upgraded to OSX Yosemite 10.10.1.  I also have an Apple ID that works with iTunes and would like to keep it as my primary.

    To change the iCloud ID on your devices you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted (if using iOS 7), then sign back in with your current ID.
    If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, you will have to temporarily recreate it in order to delete the existing account.  To do this, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Why is my airportxpr only working with Itunes and not with another music program

    why is my airportxpr only working with Itunes and not with another music program??
    I can not select/see other outputs in my sound selector.

    You have not indicated which OS or which music program you have so I have listed a program called Airfoil to try for both Windows and Mac - it may work for you

  • Home Sharing no longer works between iTunes and Apple TV.

    I've been through all the forums, tried all the solutions provided and I have come to the conclusion that Home Sharing just no longer works between iTunes on a PC and my Apple TV.  Does anyone know if this issue will be addressed or should I list my Apple TV up on eBay?  (along with my iPad, iPod, and iPhone, since all system no longer sync together as before.)
    My issue:
    My iTunes library is no longer listed under "Computers" on the Apple TV.
    The airplay icon no longer shows up in iTunes. (Version 11)
    I cannot play music/content from my iPhone or iPad via remote that is stored in my iTunes library through my Apple TV. 
    I can however play music/content that is stored locally on my iPhone and iPad through my Apple TV.
    My firewall settings are allowing access to Apple TV.
    After logging into my router, I see no issues there.
    I've logged in/out, turned home sharing on/off, de-authorized/authorized, and restarted my PC, Apple TV, and Router.
    All devices are logged into the same iTunes account, and are on the same wireless network.
    Time for a solution Apple.

    If you turn off wifi on your  Computer and connect it to the apple tv using an ethernet cable can you see your library under computers in Apple TV.
    If yes the issue is with your wifi not the Apple TV

    iTunes Home Sharing Not Working
    Not working and sometimes when it is working, it cuts out in the middle, or when you click on the computer name, the focus goes away from the library.  In other words, really weird.
    What it is
    iTunes has a feature called "Home Sharing" - it basically allows you to share your entire or part of your library with other instances of iTunes in your home network.  It requires you to login to your iTunes account on both computers.  A typical scenario is to enable Home Sharing on your desktop machine and then access the library from your iPad, Apple TV, iPhone, Mac, etc.
    In my case, I have iTunes on my desktop machine running Windows XP in the attic with Home Sharing enabled and then I access the library from my Macbook and Apple TV, depending on what I want.  How to use Home Sharing can be found here.
    Symptoms
    Home Sharing machine not showing up in Apple TV or the Macbook
    The Macbook home sharing not showing up on my desktop
    Home Sharing working intermittently
    Connections getting cut of intermittently
    Usually, restarting iTunes or the desktop computer will make things work.
    Sometimes, restarting the Macbook or the Apple TV will make things work.
    The "working" doesn't last long
    The FixOn the desktop computer where the Home Sharing is enabled, I disabled the "QoS Packet Scheduler" from the network connection:
    Open Control Panel
    Open Network Connections
    Right-Click on your connection (in my case, it was "Wireless Network Connection 4"
    Select Properties
    Uncheck "QoS Packet Scheduler"
    Click OK
    Restart iTunes if necessary
    After doing the above, Home Sharing worked like a charm.  

  • FaceTime no longer working with Yosemite and IOS 8.1

    I have used FaceTime flawlessly for some time with no issue.
    After I upgraded to Yosemite on my MacBookAir and IOS8.1 on 5S and iPad air, I've had a problem connecting.
    When I get a call, all the devices ring (as they should) but it will not connect on the first device I pick up on.  It says connecting
    but all the other devices keep ringing and finally it says I have a missed call.  The connection does not happen.  If I turn off
    all devices except one, it will work...... do we have a bug here??

    Thank you for responding to my issue.  I spent the better part of two hours trying to get this to work.  Bluetooth is enabled on all devices. Each computer is set in Preferences/General to allow Handoff.  All computers and iPhones are on the same WiFi network.  I toggled all of the major settings off and on.  Rebooted each of my computers several times. I finally conceded defeat.  Then my daughter asked to have a try at it.  She worked on the first MBP for about thirty minutes and informed me that she had gotten continuity to work.  And indeed, on her MBP late 2012 she is able to use the continuity features in both directions between her computer and her iPhone 6.  But it only works with Mail and Safari.  I asked how she accomplished this feat.  She said she turned off "everything" on her computer and iPhone (WiFi, Bluetooth, "Allow handoff" under Preferences/General) and then rebooted both the iPhone and the computer.  She then turned everything back on.  This worked for her.  So we tried the same thing on my MBP and iPhone 6.  Now continuity works partially. Email activity is mirrored on both the MBP and the iPhone regardless of which device initiates the continuity activity.  But Safari activity on the computer is mirrored on the iPhone but not in the opposite direction.  There is no continuity function for Pages in either direction.  The telephone connectivity works fine on all of my devices– 3 MBPs, Mac Pro, iPad Air, 2nd gen iPad and 3rd gen iPad.

  • Sync iCloud-enabled iPhone no longer works with iTunes

    Both my wife's and my iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S stopped syncing with iTunes soon after the switch to iCLoud and iOS 5.0.1.
    Both phones are setup to backup into iCLoud and to sync via WiFi to the inhouse iTunes.
    At some point iTunes decided that both devices are no longer linked with our Computer (iMac 27 OSX 10.7.2) and insists whenever it 'sees' the iPhones on WiFi or the local cable that either devive has to be initialized or restored from the latest local backup (which is outdated due to the iCloud backups).
    No way to syn music, videos, movies to any of the devices ever since.
    Anybody else having the same issues with iTunes 'forgetting' previously paired iPhones?

    That is wild! My receiver had problems under 4.1, and I upgraded to 4.2 last night hoping to rectify things. It worked for me, flies through the menus and plays back beautifully again.
    I have a 3GS and a Pioneer deck in the truck.

  • AirTunes no longer working with iTunes 6.01

    This is a cross-post from the iTunes discussion, but I've gotten no answers over there.
    Since upgrading to iTunes 6.01, when AAC files are played, they are changed to "MPEG-4 video," which disables AirTunes. AirTunes plays mp3s, but over 90% of my songs are AAC files.
    My iTunes library is on an external FW hd.
    Any suggestions?

    What's this about iTunes not working on new MBA with OS X 10.6.7?? That's what I'm running although 11" instead of 13" but I doubt that would make much of a difference, and my iTunes works fine. Although, before this I wasn't spending $130 to upgrade to Snow Leopard from Tiger with a 4 year old laptop, so I hooked my iPhone up to my work comp using XP, and when I got my MBA, plugged in the iPhone, I had the option of keeping the songs on my phone and not syncing with my "old" library, or erasing all the new songs and syncing with my "old" library. Pretty sure that's intentional though.

  • Since MBA no longer working with iTunes, should I skip buying new iPad2

    Since the upgrade to 10.6.7 on my new 13" MBA, my iTunes does not work, my battery does not work, and several other issues are having problems.
    My question is: Since my new iPad 2 is scheduled to arrive here by the end of the month should I cancel this order now as I won't be able to connect it toTunes?
    I have owned various apple computers since 2002 and this is the first time that Apple so royally screwed up my new machine with this new update that I am embarrassed for them.

  • PCS no longer working with contacts and 6086

    I have applied the latest release of PC Suite 6.84.10.3.
    Previously the installed level was 6.83.14.1
    The send/read/write message still doesn't work but hangs the Windows Explorer for a while (this hang didn't occur previously)
    But now, the contact facility no longer works. It is no longer possible to edit a contact, to store it locally or to send it to the phone even a message says everything is OK
    (translate it from french: The contact has been well recorded into the phone)
    Folder browsing still works correctly, either the phone folder or the memory card folder
    Need a fix or a way to install the previous version, at least for the contacts...
    This is a really negative feedback!

    I guess what I learned is that sometimes the best solution is to do nothing and wait for the problem to solve itself! Funny, this has never worked for me before.
    WOT is now working for me but often for only the first few rows of images. That's cool that it is also working with bing images.
    Boudica, thanks for understanding. I am new contributor/ question-asker here on mozilla and may not understand how things are done. I was just frustrated, getting an email saying that my question was answered, logging in to find that it wasn't.
    Now we have the functionality that we wanted, right?

  • Web of Trust no longer working with google and bing image searches

    Hello All,
    I have searched and searched but have not found an answer that matches my specifics. Any help would be appreciated.
    I used to be able to do this but now I can no longer search and browse images on google or bing image search and have Web of Trust function. Here is how I am going about it.
    What I use:
    DuckDuckGo's annoymous google or bing image search link when I enter querries. Also, searching directly from Google's or Bing's image search page doesn't work with WOT anymore either.
    Firefox 23.0.1
    The following add-on's:
    Add-block plus 2.3.2
    BetterPrivacy 1.68
    Flagfox 4.2.12
    Ghostery 5.0.4
    Google/Yandex search link fix 1.4.1
    No Script 2.6.7.1
    Web of Trust 20130515
    If anyone has a fix for this please let me know.

  • Problem with iTunes and sync'n Contacts

    I'm a new user to the iPod and iTunes in general. Unfortunately I've encountered a few problems with putting contacts on my iPod. I have the new video 5th generation iPod and Microsoft Outlook 2003, however when I try and sync the contacts to the iPod - iTunes closes with the message 'iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close'. The error signature offset is '35f76ad2'. I have absolutely no idea what this means.
    I have tried manually moving the contacts from Outlook to my iPod but this doesn't take the pictures with it.
    I also tried installing a version of iTunes prior to 7.0.0 until I realised my iPod could only use version 7 or later.
    Can someone please help - even if it's just contact information for Apple to help me out!

    Restore your iPhone from a backup of your iPhone. You can restore from either your iCloud or iTunes backup depending upon what you want to do and what backups you have. To restore see:

  • Quicklook no longer works with iTunes 8.0.1

    When you open the Movie or TV folder in Finder, the file icons begin changing from iTunes icons to a blank grey icons and the files can no longer be viewed from Preview or Quicklook.
    Is this an intended design change or is it a software oversight with iTunes 8.0.1? In either case it's very annoying, as I use Quicklook extensively.

    It was a precursor to my G4 HD going south. Had to rebuild from scratch and it's fine.

  • Touch id not working with iTunes and App Store

    Touch ID will work to unlock my phone, but not with iTunes or App Store. It keeps asking for my iTunes password. I have turned on 'Use your fingerprint instead of your Apple ID password when buying from the iTunes & App Store'. I am running IOS v7.0 (11A466)

    I was having this issue too, it was always asking for the passcode even though the setting was on for iTunes & App Store. To fix it I turned it off and then back on again, it asked for my password and then it worked.
    Steps:
    - Go to Settings -> General -> Touch ID & Passcode -> Touch ID
    - Disable iTunes & App Store
    - Re-enable iTunes & App Store
    - Enter your passcode one last time
    - It should work
    Also as others mentioned, under General -> Restrictions -> Require Password might need to be set to 15 minutes.
