Serious problems with iTunes HELP

Hello,
I updated my iTunes yesterday and my music library disappeared completely. I tried to use the back up of the library made previously and it didnt work. I then added my whole music folder to iTunes successfully except that there was around 30 of each playlist (90s music etc). This caused iTunes to run very slowly and as they wouldnt delete i had to go through and delete my library very slowly as to not make iTunes crash. I then sucessfully uninstalled iTunes and got rid of all the library back ups which may have been the cause of the mutliple playlist.
On re instalatiuon of iTunes the multiple playlists had gone and the scroll bars had gone black. I added my My Music folder and to my horror the music didnt play anymore. I have been through all the help sections for this problem and nothing seems to work. iTunes at the moment is very unstable and crashes very often. Could this be a quicktime problem? I would very much appreciate some help.
Thankyou!

You can't.
Obviously the same mechanism is used as in Mail. I can't put more than about 25 conditions in the rules for Junk mail. It's the same problem. There is no scroll function unfortunately.
The workaround in iTunes is to make several smart playlists (someone called them building blocks) and combine them in another smart playlist.

    This is the iTunes Music store forum, since you are having a problem with iTunes you need to post in the "using iTunes forum." Posting in the wrong forum usually delays a response to your issue.

  • Serious problem with Itunes

    I have a problem with my Itunes. Whenever I add songs to my itunes library and sync with my iphone, it works. but after that, when i close itunes or restart my computer and turn itunes on again, my songs just dissappear and empty. I dont know why though i tried to update itunes version and uninstalled it but it still hasnt worked still. Can some1 help me plz

    In addition, Sony have released an update to fix this problem for some models. You need to check your region's Sony support site to see if there is a download for your model.
    Unfortunately I only have the European site to hand.

  • Serious problem with itunes, please help!

    ITunes gives me an error when I try and open it, says windows has encountered an error. I tried uninstalling it and it gives me another error but says iTunes has uninstalled and asks me to restart. iTunes is gone from my add/remove menu but quicktime remains and refuses to uninstall. The uninstall box simply closes halfway through opening the uninstallation program. Help please!

    hi matt!
    gaah. okay, first of all, make sure your
    b antivirus and antispyware
    are switched off during installs and uninstalls.
    lets try using the Windows Cleanup utility to remove the QT clog in your Add/Remove:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    ... and also use it to make sure you've got rid of any last vestiges of itunes from your system (i don't like the sound of that crash on the uninstall).
    then use the instructions on uninstalls given here as a guide to manually removing itunes and QT program files and folders:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    now download and save to your hard-drive a standalone QT installer (well run the installation from there rather than online). there's a link to a standalone inside here:
    Scott Patrie, "Installation hangs on "installing QuickTime"", 10:33pm Oct 7, 2004 CDT
    once that is properly installed, reboot. then download and save an itunes 5.0.1.4 installer to your hard-drive, and then run that.
    keep us posted on your progress. if you get any further errors, describe them as fully as you can (include error message numbers if you're getting any).
    love, b

  • Serious problem with iTunes: Entire library lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I recently de-installed Norton System works from my PC and installed Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0. It took a while to remove Norton so I left it over night. Well last night when I opened my iTunes, I noticed my entire library is now missing and I can't seem to find it on my PC. I also want to try to connect my iPod to my PC and maybe recover at least some of my songs and re-create a new library. If someone has any info on that, it would be appreciated as well. It almost seems as though Norton removed it during the de-installation process. I am very upset about this since I had over 500 songs on the library including my over 200 songs downloaded from iTunes. Please let me know what has happened here. Also to note, I do not leave my PC connected to the internet when I'm not using it so I do not believe someone came past the firewall and erased the lirary over night.

    Hi, dgmunch.
    Although your iTunes Library display is blank, your song files may still on your hard drive.
    Have a look at this article in the Apple Knowledge Base for some ideas on how to find them, changing file extensions in the search as is necessary (i.e. .mp3 or .m4a.)
    If you find the files,then something is most likely amiss with your iTunes Library files which are needed for iTunes to know the contents of your Music Library and where the files that make it up are located.
    If you don't have a back-up copy of the iTunes library files, you will have to make use of this article in the Apple Knowledge Base.
    But if there is no sign of the files on your hard drive, then you will want to have a look at Zevoneer's post.

  • Help me please : Serious problems with collection-mapping, list-mapping and map-mappi

    Hi everybody;
    I have serious problems with list-mapping, collection-mapping and map-mapping.
    Acording to specifications and requirements in a system I am working on it is needed to
    get a "list" of values or an indivudual value.I am working with ORACLE 9i Database,
    ORACLE 9i AS and ORACLE 9i JDEVELOPER.
    I tried to map a master-detail relationship in an entity-bean, using list-mapping.
    And this was very useful in order to get a "list" of details, ...but, when I wanted
    to get a single value I have some problems with persistence, something about "saving a state"
    despite I just want to get the value of a single detail.
    I decided to change it to map-mapping and the problem related with a single detail
    worked successfully, but I can get access to the whole bunch of details.
    May anyone of you help me with that?
    I am very confused I do not know what to do.
    Have any of you a solution for that problem?
    Thank you very much.

    Have you tried a restore in iTunes?

  • Serious problem with AppStore/iTunes WiFi Store. Cannot connect

    Hi
    I has a serious problem with my iPod Touch: When I tries to open App Store on my iTouch, I usually gets this message: *"Cannot connect to iTunes Store"*, often followed by *"Cannot retrieve download information. Please connect with iTunes."*. iTunes on my MacBook seems to work just fine.
    I might also be able to use the AppStore for a minute or so, and then the problems are coming back. All other internet-enabled apps is working fine, except the iTunes WiFi Store who's having the same problems as AppStore.
    What should I do?

    That would be a wonderful suggestion if my computer could connect to iTunes. Since about July my computer keeps giving me error 11222. I've tried everything on the support discussion board, but they haven't solved the problem either, and my software is up to date. Today instead of giving me the error, it's just been sitting for hours saying "Accessing iTunes Store". I was really hoping that I could just use the wifi on the iPod to access the iTunes and AppStore. Any other suggestions until iTunes gets fixed on my computer? Thanks for your help - Lex

  • Serious problem with my iPod Classic/iTunes

    I have a 6th Generation iPod classic (80 GB), and recently, I have been having some serious problems with it.
    When I connect it to iTunes, there is usually no problem, it shows up, plays and displays the music correctly, etc. However, if I try to ADD any music to it, iTunes will freeze, then close, and within 5 minutes, my entire computer will freeze completely, and be shut off. For whatever reason, happen when my iPod finally disconnects because my computer turned off, all of my music is missing from the library (This doesn't happen every time it freezes, because I try to disconnect my iPod manually before everything freezes). The music is still on the iPod, (it says that I have XX.X GB of "other" instead of music/videos), but it doesn't show up. When I plug in my iPod, iTunes says that there was a problem and I need to restore it. The first time this happened, I lost over 5,800 songs, but I forgave Apple, because these things do occasionally happen, plus I had no idea what exactly went on. The SECOND time happened within the same week, after I had put 800 songs back on the restored iPod. The first time happened when I was using iTunes 10 (which is seriously buggy on my computer, and freezes often), so I switched to iTunes 9 (still buggy, but doesn't freeze quite as much), and the same thing happened. So now I'm thinking it's my iPod's fault. My iPod does a whole host of minor problems over time such as making certain songs cut off at a certain specific point for no reason (Always the same song, always the same cut off point, and I can't fast forward past it, I also can't delete the songs because if I highlight them on iTunes, iTunes will freeze, and if I find them under the music folder in iPod control, my computer will freeze), freezing the entire iPod for seemingly no reason, and somehow messing up my album artwork (it will appear as "Colourful Static"), along with alot more.
    I know this is a troublesome problem, but if anyone could somehow shine some light on this problem, it would be tremendously appreciated.
    Thank you
    -Eric Luna

    Unfortunately, when a hard drive starts clicking that means it's going bad. The mechanism is having trouble reading the drive. Since the iPod is mostly just a harddrive and a battery I have a feeling that this is your problem.
    watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMm6c3fr-fU
    about 25ss in is where the clicking starts. If it sounds like that, but softer and more muffled since it is a smaller drive that is being enclosed then I think you might be SOL. Maybe if you're iPod is still under warranty you can get a credit and go for a touch and avoid moving parts all together?

  • Multiple Problems with itunes...PLEASE HELP

    i'm crossing posting this to try and get as much help as possible, so i'm sorry if you see this in a bunch of places.....
    i posted awhile back and didnt get much help and i'm still having problems with itunes
    first of all when i open itunes it attempts to do the gapless playback stuff....if i let it do it....it gets half way through and freezes....but if i stop it before it freezes, i am able to play music BUT not import any songs from cd, ipod, or downloading software....
    so, i deleted the library and imported "iTunes Music Library.xml"....then i went into my itunes folder and started dropping the songs into itunes...and i got about 3/4s of my music (about 25 gigs) and it starts to freezes when looking for album covers....if i force quit and reopen the song will be in there...just not the album work....which is fine....but if i have to force quit every time i import a song, its going to get rediculous....i have tried deleting the library and importing the "iTunes Music Library.xml" file about 6 times now, with the same results.....
    ALSO...when i connect my ipod to my computer (i have 80 gig 5G) it will freeze while syncing....
    i honestly have NO idea what to do....any suggestions would be welcomed...thanks....

    - You stated you had " deleted the library and imported "iTunes Music Library.xml", so verify steps in article are what you've done, or try them again.

    Same thing happened with my iPhone 4S - no one is any help.  Thanks Apple for such a crappy update!  I've called Apple, they say the SIM card needs replacing, I go to my service provider they tell me nothing wrong with the SIM card - provider tells me I now need a new phone.  Sheesh!  If someone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated.

    For general library squiffiness following an upgrade the easiest thing is to restore your last backup, but I guess if it were that simple you wouldn't be here.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps youshouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
