Quick question - unchecked songs and videos in the iTunes library

Will these or should these show up in Apple TV ?
Reason I ask is that they are unchecked as they won't all fit on the iPod touch. However, there is no reason why I wouldn't want to listen or watch them through Apple TV.

If they are unchecked in the iTunes library, they won't show up on tv. You should still be able to check them separately for iPod using the devices on the left and sync options across the top. ie. I have some thing unchecked so tv won't list them but I sync those same items to iPad/iPhone by using their individual sync options.
Hope this helps,
Captfred

    You need to use the backup of your PC to transfer all the music files to iTunes on the Mac.
    If you have no backup then you have a difficult task ahead of you as iTunes will only allow you to sync purchased music from the iPhone back into iTunes.   Any music you loaded into iTunes yourself will not transfer from the iPhone to iTunes, this is to prevent stealing of music.  To sync iTunes purchased music from the iPhone to iTunes, connect the iPhone and open iTunes, but when asked do NOT sync the device.  then right click on the iPhone in the iTunes source list and select the 'Transfer Purchases' option, you will also find this commend in the File menu.
    If you are in the US, you can use the new iTunes in the Could feature to redownload your iTunes purchased music / apps / books for free.
    If you want to transfer all the content from your iPhone to you Mac then you will need to use Google to find a 3rd party piece of software that will do this for you.

  • Hi there, can anyone please help? Download itunes and it says The Itunes library .itl file is locked, or on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file.

    Hi there, can anyone please help? Download itunes and it says The Itunes library .itl file is locked, or on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file.

    Holding down the shift key while iTunes is opening. That will bring up the 'choose iTunes library' dialog. Select 'Choose LIbrary' from the choices and navigate to your music folder and iTunes music folder.
    Or refer to this article:

  • I am using Windows XP on my laptop. Had to format the C drive. I have reinstalled iTunes but I am unable to add anything other than music, TV shows and movies to the iTunes library. It is not showing any option to add podcasts, books, photos or apps.

    I had to format the C drive recently. I have reinstalled iTunes but I am unable to add anything other than music, TV shows and movies to the iTunes library. It is not showing any option to add podcasts, books, photos or apps. These things are available on my iPhone but are no longer there in the iTunes library. Please help.

    In iTunes go to general preferences and check the boxes for those you wish to see in the library.

  • How do I transfer my music from my laptop to my iPhone? I've already checked the sync only checked songs and videos box, the manually manage music and videos box. I only want to sync the songs I checked, but it transfers all the music.

    I dont want to transfer all the music just the checked ones. My macbook transfers all the music from my library to my iphone. I dont get it. Please if you could help that would be terrific. 

    Hi RaulRod,
    Are you pressing the Sync button to transfer music after connecting your iPhone or do you have the option checked to 'Automatically Sync when the iPhone is connected?'
    Have you tried manually dragging and dropping music from your library into your phone?

  • How do you uncheck songs and TV shows in iTunes?

    I have iTunes 12.1.0.50. Everytime I try to uncheck a box an exclamation point in a circle pops up. Its extremely frustrating and I can't figure it out.

    Hi Ky1017,
    The exclamation point symbol next to songs or other media in iTunes means that the application is unable to locate the media file for that item, or it was purchased but not downloaded. This article tells how you can correct the issue -

  • I am logged into the same itunes account on two diffrent accounts on the same computer, there are diffrents songs on each of the itunes library how do i get the same songs on the librarys on the diffrent computer accounts?

    on the same computer on diffrent computer accounts i am logged into itunes using the same itunes account, but on the diffrent computer accounts the itunes librarys have diffrent songs because my sister will buy songs on her computer account and i buy them using itunes on my computer account. how do we make so that we have all of the same songs on both of the librarys without rebuying everything since its the same itunes account?

    Where is all of the music now?
    Just copy it all to the same computer.

  • Can i search and replace in the itunes library database file?

    Hi --
    I need to update the file location in the itunes database for a few thousand songs. These songs are just part of my full collection. A few hundred of these songs are referenced in playlists. Rebuilding the libarary, consolidating the library, adding the new folder to library -- none of these suggested solutions to similar problems will work for me. (My collection is too large for one drive and is spread over several drives, and I have many playlists with hundreds of songs, and the playlists would be ruined with any of these approaches.)
    I thought I had an easy solution by doing a search and replace in "itunes library.xml," replacing the old file path with the new one. But then I learned (as you probably already know) that the real information is stored in "itunes library," and the xml file is just a downstream copy of that information. All my edits were overwritten as soon as I opened itunes.
    The solution to my problem is completely straight-forward if I can just do a search and replace in "itunes libray." Is it possible to edit that file directly? The only database program I have is MS Access, on windows, and it couldn't open the file.
    Thanks very much

  • Songs and playlists disappearing from iTunes library

    I desperately need iTunes help.  Anyone an expert out there?  I have spent A LOT if time transferring songs from my computer into my itunes library, and creating Playlists.  Then I sync my phone, and all seems fine.  But when I go back into iTunes to put another song on my phone, all the songs are gone.  Everything that I put into iTunes is gone, all playlists, and all the songs.  It's as if I was never in there.  This has happened twice now.  I don't want to recreate my library and playlists every time I open iTunes!!!!  But I can't just add one new song to my phone either, because as soon as a sync, everything that is already on my phone will be gone!!!  Grrrr!!  Anyone know what's going on??  The songs were not purchased through iTunes, if that makes a difference.

    Apple's official advice on duplicates is here: Find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership, or that sometimes the same file can be represented by multiple entries in the library and that deleting one and recycling the file will break the other.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
    The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.
    See also Make a split library portable for some thoughts on best practice when it comes to organizing the library and media files.

  • How do I put these songs and videos onto the Music App?

    How do I load mp3 content, videos, and other content from applications onto the music app? For example, I have applications such as Video Hunter Pro that downloads youtube videos, but how do I put the videos or audio track into my Music app? I don't want to constantly switch apps. For iTunes on all devices.

    Only items directly downloaded from iTunes Store or synced over from iTunes on a computer can be placed in the music or video app.

  • TS5376 we are getting the MSVCR80.dll error on our home computer. If we uninstall iTunes do we loose all our songs and info in our iTune library?

    we are getting the MSVCR80.dll error, it saysit an APSDaemon.exe system error. If we uninstall iTunes, do we loose our library?

    I had the same problems.  It is a glitch with iTunes and the PC.  I found an article that helps you fix your problem step-by-step at http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findbyerrormessage/a/msvcr80-dll-not-found-missing -error.htm .  Follow the uninstall and reinstall directions as exactly stated in the article and your problems will be solved.  It took a while, but it worked!  And most importantly, you do NOT lost your song library.    Good luck!

  • I have old IPad and down load new software. It completely distort my ITune set up. I use to have audio and video in the ITune, now it's separated audio and video in different category. And I can not set group or alphabetical tap to pull out video.

    If set them up in the group sush as; comedy,action,drama,ect. It would be nice.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • My songs show up in the iTunes library but not on my iPod

    I had my songs on my iPod Touch 3rd Generation for and I plugged it in over night. The next day I went to my music on my iPod and it said "No content available. Download songs from iTunes" I went to iTunes on my Dell computer and they are all there. I got most songs back except for ones I recently purchased.

    This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.

  • Some Songs and Videos on New Itouch Will Not Play

    Itouch 3g, 64g, firmware 3.1.2; running Win XP, Itunes v9.0.25; only one computer and one account. All songs and videos purchased from Itunes. Upgraded from an Ipod Classic to the Itouch.
    Some songs and all videos will not play on the Itouch (they all work in Itunes and on the Ipod Classic). On the Itouch, hitting play on the songs just toggles between the play icon and the pause icon with nothing happening with the song; other songs work as advertised. Hitting play on the videos results in the message "This movie could not be played."
    I have searched the posts and faqs and tried the solutions suggested in the apple support faq: tried resetting, deauthorizing/authorizing, etc. Nothing solves the problem.
    Thanks for any help you can provide!
    --Steve

    I went back and made a list of all the songs that would not play on the PC and Ipod Classic but not the iTouch. I then turned on the "Kind" column in iTunes to compare the list. It appears the songs listed as "Protected AAC" are the ones that are not playing on the iTouch. All songs that are "Purchased AAC" seem to be the ones that work.
    All of the videos are "Protected MPEG-4 video file(s)" and none work on the iTouch.
    As noted earlier, all songs and videos work on the PC and the Ipod Classic.
    Is this a DRM issue? If so, is there a legitimate fix available?
