Playlists don't appear in iTunes Playlist selection window when synching

I just updated to iTunes 9.0 (big mistake) and discovered that many of my playlists do not appear in the playlist selection window when I synch my iPod nano 2.0. Even playlists that I created after upgrading to 9.0 don't appear. I have more playlists than I can load onto my iPod, so I need to be able to select which playlists to synch. Since many don't even appear in the selection window, I can't put them on my iPod. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
BTW, I have already gone through the Five R's, which did nothing to help.

Personally I use Subler to tag all these shows and then send them to Itunes. In subler you have the option of setting the Media Type and also the HD option of 720 or 1080p if applicable. Save it then use the file, Send to itunes and they show up in the right place.

Playlists don't appear in iTunes

I got a new computer, I installed itunes, connected my ipod but my play lists from my ipod don't appear in itunes? How do I fix that? Everything I see has me sync the itunes to the ipod (thereby eleminating my playlists) but not the other way around. How do I fix that?

Well this didn't work. I get to step #10 and there is just the words "home Share" and nothing listed below it, no arrow to click. I'm assuming neither computer is recognizing each other even though they are sitting side by side and connected to the same wifi connection. I'm literally about to throw everything in the trash!!!

Audiobooks don't appear in itunes

Hey
The audiobooks I put on my Ipod don't appear on Itunes in the Ipod (they do appear in the library).
Any idea on how this can be fixed? I need to delete some!

In order to see Audiobooks on the Touch you have to click on the More... button on the bottom right after you open Music. Then you'll get a list including Audiobooks, Podcasts, etc. from which you can choose. According to the promotional video for the Touch, you can replace one of the standard icons in Music, e.g., Songs, with Audiobooks or Podcasts so you don't have to click on the More... icon to get to the list.

Address Book ulContacts don't appear in iTunes

I just went to sync my original iPhone via iTunes and just discovered that my address book contacts don't appear in iTunes. My address book is fine and all of my groups appear. Anyone have any helpful hints to get them to reappear?

I have a similar issue. There are hundreds of podcasts on my Ipod Touch that I would like to delete. However, they don't show up on the computer. 2 questions:
1. You say to delete them from the Ipod. Please explain how. If they have to be deleted individually it will proabably take a lot of time.
2. Why does this happen? How can I prevent this from happening again?
Sure wish Apple would give us more help with this.
Thank you.

GarageBand files don't appear in iTunes.

My exported garageband files don't appear in iTunes. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

You're sure they are not there? Have you done a
search with the name in iTunes? Or on your disk with
Spotlight?
I've tried all these things to no avail. Do you have any other suggestions?

the airplay icon is appeared in iTunes 12 on windows but when trying to connect it tell me this message (the connection is timed out)

Hello atef from egypt,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To help resolve this issue where your computer cannot connect to your AirPlay-enabled device, please follow the information outlined below.
Wi-Fi Connection
If you are experiencing intermittent playback or significant network lag with AirPlay, it could be due to a weak Wi-Fi connection, interference, or the distance between the Wi-Fi router and your AirPlay-enabled device.
Ensure that other devices aren't trying to stream to the same Apple TV at the same time.
Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
Use the Wi-Fi network troubleshooting guide to resolve interference and other issues.
Ethernet Connection
Temporarily disable firewalls (both network and local) and security software. Security software and firewalls may block ports that AirPlay uses to stream content. You can often resolve issues with security software by updating, correctly configuring, or uninstalling security software.

.m4V files don't appear in iTunes until played from iTunes' 'Movies' folder

Some .m4v camcorder movie files (from a recent .avi conversion using Handbrake) just don't appear in my iTunes 'Movies' library until I double-click on them in the iTunes 'Movies' folder. Handbrake did the batch conversion and placed the converted files in the iTunes 'Movies' folder.
All of the converted files are visible in that 'Movies' folder of iTunes. And when I double-click them they play in an iTunes window. iTunes 'Movies' section seems unable to display them until they have first been played from the iTunes 'Movies' folder. Am I missing something about the way iTunes handles .m4v files?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem? Any idea what the issue might be?
Thanks.

Problem.
I just tried turingtest2's suggestion and it didn't work.
I converted an H264 .mov file in Handbrake and output the conversion to the 'Automatically Add to iTunes' folder. But it was not added to iTunes - it ended up in the 'Not Added' folder and remained there until I played it from that location. Then it immediately turned up in iTunes 'Movies' folder.
The Handbrake conversion was to an 'Apple TV' compatible .m4v file.
Any idea what the problem might be?

Latest podcast episodes don't appear in iTunes

This topic doesn't seem to be new: 6 episodes of our podcast have been properly shown up in itunes. #7 and #8 are not updated in the itunes store. Any help is highly appreciated, Thanks!
Itunes store: https://itunes.apple.com/de/podcast/arkhaminsiders/id689894807?l=en
Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/Arkhaminsiders

In fact the Store is missing episodes 1 and 7,
Episode 1 is not present in the feed. Episode 7 is, but it has no 'enclosure' tag containing the URL of the media file, as is required by iTunes (and is present in the other episode except a few which are presumabloy designed not to have playable media, and thus don't show in iTunes).
The media file URL for episode 7 is present in the 'description' tag, and works; but evidently you have failed to do something in WordPress which you did for the other episodes to make it iTunes-compliant.

Apps: download them but they don't appear in iTunes

hi guys,
when I donwload an app via itunes i see it dowloading into a "download" temporary folder right below the "itunes store" tab on the left of the itunes. Apps stay there for a while then disappear and i can't even find them in the apps tab of itunes.
And still, when i check my hard disk i can see them in a folder called "mobile apps" into my "itunes" folder.
I want to download apps from itunes instead from iphone. I download them but I just can't find them on itunes once downloaded.
What's wrong with all that?
I have an iphone 3g, 2.2.1 fw
thank you for your help.

I see a large number of messages about iPhone apps "crashing" and authorization issues. I was frustrated for many months about some, many or most apps "crashing" at startup after installing new apps. In my case "crash" means that the initial screen of the app would briefly appear and then the iPhone would revert to the original screen shown before the app was started.
Newly downloaded apps would always work. You could remove any app then download it again and it would work. At some latter time you might sync with iTunes and after that many apps would start "crashing" again.
What a frustrating experiance!
BTW, my computer runs WindowsXP, I think that not using a Mac is likely to be a key part of people's issues!
So, the summary of the issue is:
Download a new app on your iPhone. Sync with iTunes on your Windows system. Look at the list of applications iTunes is aware of. Note if iTunes does not have a complete list. Over time note how apps not on the list start to "crash" on startup.
I've finally found a solution that appears to resolve my app crash issues:
Sync your iPhone to iTunes. Deautorize and reauthorize your computer. Note how the iTune applications list has added more items including your most recent App Store downloads. Sync your iPhone again using the button on the iTunes Applicaiton screen. Enjoy the fact that your apps on your iPhone now all run OK. Remember to deauthorize and reauthoirze your computer when you sync after you install more apps on your iPhone.
The apporach above has changed my experiance from frequent frustation to no more issues.
Not sure if it matters but I've yet to add any actual music on my iPhone. I do have some podcasts. Perhaps if I had music that needed authorization that would change things. Also, I have no apps which cost money. Again, if I had for fee apps maybe that would change the situation.
It seems like there are a lot of folks having app "crash" issues. The Digital Rights Management authorization seems to be in the middle of the issues. My guess is that iTunes on Windows with iPhone does not get quite the same attention as on Mac. These issues seem to cause many folks to be frustrated. Suggested solutions include a complete system reset which allows the iPhone to "work correctly for a few months".
As far as I can tell latest updates of all SW involved still show the issue. If it really has been resolved or it's somehow my user stupidity my appologies for wasting other's time.
Since I've found a solution that's not too painful I'm happy. However, Apple may want to improve the user experiance for the masses.

Device Synch Menus does not appear in iTunes 11 on Windows 8 PC

My 3rd generation iPod Nano connected to Windows-8 PC and iTunes 11 - Device "Summary" menu does not appear. If you select the <File> menu in iTunes there is an option to "Synch Nano". My iTunes is set to manually manage music on the Nano - because the "Summary" menu does not appear in iTunes it is impossible to select albums to Synch with the Nano.
On the upper right bar there is an eject button for the iPod Nano. This does in fact eject the Nano device and re-appears in iTunes if you disconnect the device then reconnect the iPod Nano.
No other device menus are present in iTunes 11 under Windows-8. The iPod Nano music library also does not appear.
Only the PC based iTunes music library is visible.
Itunes software versions are both current on the Nano and Windows-8 PC.
The computer was deauthorized and then authorized in iTunes.
The Synch History was reset in iTunes Preferences - this did not re-establish the Nano as a device to synch with iTunes. (Typically fixes similar problems)
Resetting nano device by holding Menu after switching unit on/off (Apple Logo Appears then Reboots Nano) makes no difference.
Nano shows as a drive in Windows-8 in "My Computer" and the operating system recognizes the device connection.
No problem ejecting and reconnecting the Nano in Itunes but traditional device menus are gone with the exception of the eject button.
Tested the same iTunes Nano on two other computers with iTunes 11 installed on Windows-7 and Windows XP - works fine. This issue only occurs on Windows-8 computers.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I just updated iTunes today and this seems to be the cause
If you're already at version 11.1.5.5, try the procedure in Cerbu's post:
Re: sync problem
... or try section 5 from the following document:

Ipad2 7.1.2 not appearing in itunes 11.3 - windows 8.1

Hello Apple Community
I am having great difficulty getting an ipad 2 to display in itunes 11.3 under windows 8.1
This is a new issue since upgrading the ipad and itunes from ios 6 and itunes 10 respectively.
Things I have tried so far are
* different usb cords, different usb ports.
* re-installing itunes using the complete removal article (ensuring all components removed in the correct order etc)
* start/stopping the apple mobile device service
* manually installing the apple mobile device driver with the driver supplied by itunes in ....\common files
I have also observed that if the apple mobile device driver is removed, the ipad will appear as a hardware device 'Apple iPad' but still not accessible in itunes.
The ipad does appear in itunes if it is in recovery or DFU recovery mode - these are verified in the windows device manager.
The ipad does appear on another computer so the issue is with the PC, not the ipad.
I hope I've covered everything, any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

I think you've done about all you can do I'm afraid. The only other thing I can think of is for you to just keep trying. If you haven't already, make sure to reboot your computer. Perhaps in fiddling around you can find the right combo. Also look to your anti virus software, maybe your firewall is blocking some of the communication.
Maybe if a friend also has a PC and iTunes, plug your iPad into their computer. Not to sync, just to see if their itunes sees it. If it does then the issue is in your computer, if not then there may be an issue with your iPad. Maybe part of the connector port has gone bad. You could also make an appointment at your local apple store and have them look at it. Unfortunately, unless your iPad is less than a year old any replacement will be an out of warranty replacement, and honestly, with an iPad 2 (which is what I have) I'd have to give serious consideration to paying 249 for replacement or putting that money towards a newer model.

Printer doesnt appear in the print options window when printing from an application like word etc

Ok this topic is all over the help forums but I have a couple of different observations not previously covered and all remedies that have been posted and worked for most havent worked for me
First of all the Printer used to work with USB or NET connection and then suddenly unexpectedly stopped working. I cant say with 100% conviction whether this was when the upgrade to windows 7 occured or not
things I have tried:-
I have used the hp install wizard
I have a downloaded the windows 7 update.
I can ping the device
I can print a test page.
The icon appears in the device and printer window but with an exclamation mark.
I have tried NET STOP SPOOLER / NET START SPOOLER.
I can scan docuemnts OK
here is the part that I believe appears to be different from the other case on the forum.
If I open a word document and select print the printer preferences dialogue window opens but no printer is visible to select. When I select add printer it shows my network then double clicking this opens a window showing a printer icon but its a previous version?? so when I select it as a printer to add nothing happens and it still doesnt appear as a selectable printer in the printer preferences pop up window. So doesnt print any thing
Im lost for any other ideas to try

I had already tried this and it didnt work on your advice I repeated the process with same results it appears in devices list but with an exclamation mark but trouble shooter fails to find any problem
I refer you to the things tried and status in my first post i.e. I can ping the IP, I can scan. So my thoughts are now it must be something on my PC side that is the issue and not the printer or printer software.
Could it be a security level issue that's the reason why manual selection of add printer comes back access denied ??. Possibly I need admin login. However I am the admin and single user of my PC anyway so I should have access.
or some other PC setting why it doesnt see the printer in the printer settings when printing from an application ?

I don't want firefox to reopen old windows when it restarts

On the rare occasions when Firefox crashes and I restart it I often end up getting the same problem that led to the initial crash because Firefox tries to restore all the windows from the previous session. I looked in the preferences but couldn't find a way to change this behavior. I don't want it to try and re-open old windows when it restarts, just go to my home page and let me reopen windows manually. Can I set that somehow?

I am not a computer programmer and don't remember whatever I may have learned in DOS classes... When I open Firefox it goes DIRECTLY to a page that crashes my computer: originally I had to TURN OFF my computer to get out of it. NOW Mozilla Firefox goes directy to that page again, does not ask if I WANT to restore that session.
I am thinking I will just DELETE all of Firefox from the Program menu
and then reload if I get around to it
