Setting music from itunes

Yesterday I was able to pick music from my itunes library to set for a slide show in iphoto. Today, my itunes menu shows up, but doesn't show any songs that are on there and doesn't allow me to pick any. I have the latest version of itunes and iphoto. My slideshow will play music but only from the one song that I had already used.
Thanks

  • Should I set up separate apple ids for my kids or should we use mine?  If we separate them, can we still share our music from itunes?

    I have an iphone 5s and an ipad that both use my apple id.  Last week, my 2 kids got iphones so they are also using my id.  Should we create separate apple/icloud ids for them or should we all use mine?  Can we continue to share music from itunes if we have separate ones?  I'm really not sure of the best way to handle this and I don't want to screw anything up!  I really appreciate any help!  Thanks so much!

    There can be more than one Apple IDs for one iPhone, and each ID will be responsible for its own functions. You could, for example, set up one for iCloud, which will contain your contacts, calendars, settings, your backups, etc. But at the same time you could have another Apple ID for purchasing your apps, so when you buy or get free app, App Store will ask you for Apple ID and you can enter another ID that is not the same that keeps your backups and settings.
    If you want to separate your sons iPhone from your ID completely, you can change it in iCloud settings. Also it will make your children's life a lot easier.

  • How do I set up my iphone 5 so I can access my family account? I purchased music from itunes using my apple id, and those songs do not appear in our family cloud.

    How do I set up my iphone 5 so that I can access my family account? Recently I purchased music from itunes using my apple id, and now I cannot find those songs in our cloud. I wanted to add those songs to my ipod. Do I have to buy them again using my husband's apple id?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can use different ID's for iTunes and iCloud.
    Just delete the account in settings > iCloud and create them their own account.
    if the children are minors, you wiil need to create and be responsible for each account yourself.

  • I have was moving music from iTunes to a CD, however, when attempting to move a second set of music a error message stating "this is not a blank CD". How can more music be copied to this CD, which has more than sufficient space to be copied to?

  • I'm trying to transfer music from iTunes on an old PC that uses an external storage device to a new PC (Windows 7) that will use that same external storage device.  I am also dealing with new iTunes 11.  How do I do this??  What folder does iTunes use?

    I'm trying to transfer music from iTunes on an old PC (Windows Vista Home Basic) that uses an external storage device to store the files to a new PC (Windows 7 Starter) that will use that same external storage device.  I am also dealing with the new iTunes 11.  How can I accomplish this successfully?    What folder does iTunes use to store the data in?  I've tried several things.  Home Sharing caused duplicates but not all songs or apps transfered.  It is a large library! I've tried just setting the path in the Advanced Tab of iTunes preferences of the new computer with the external drive connected the same as the path when the external drive is connected to the old computer.  This was the best solution so far but still a few artists missing and some apps. Any suggestions?

    Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
    With iTunes 11 you might also have a Home Videos folder inside iTunes Media.
    In the simplest cases you copy the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> on the source computer to <User's Music> on the target machine, install iTunes, and it "just works"TM.
    If the media folder (inside the red outline) has been split out to a separate location then you can copy the library folder (outside the red outline) as before and connect the drive holding the media so that it has exactly the same path as before. If the drive appears as D: on one system and E: on the other then the library won't be able to find the media.
    The crucial file is iTunes Library.itl - this contains a record of the tracks that have been added to the library, ratings, play counts, playlists etc.

  • HT1725 I can no longer download music from itunes store.  Happened when I was Downloading from songs dragged from itunes store to a playlist.  I tried to downloaad more than one at a time.  The download stopped.  Now I can not download at all.

    I can no longer download music from itunes store.  It happened when I was trying to download songs dragged into a playlist.  I tried to download more than one at a time.  It stopped.  Now I cant download at all.  Even rebooted my machine. 

    OK thanks I will try that. I just don't understand why I still can't download new videos as I've deleted the software I installed and I've changed my camera settings back to what they were before when I could download into iPhoto. I perhaps should have mentioned it's iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    It could be as simple as longer (larger) videos - iPhoto does not always handle larger video files well
    Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    iPhoto is not a download and view program - it is a photo management database program that imports photos - Image Capture is a download program - Preview is a view program
    The default program to download your photos is set in the preference panel of either iPhoto or image capture

  • As of today I can no longer delete music from iTunes.

    Hello friends!
    I can't seem to delete music from iTunes 10.(whatever the latest version is) or on my iPhone4. I just want to change what I have on my iPhone, but then I realized that it may be an issue with iTunes after I tried to delete something there.
    I only know of two ways to delete music. One is to select/ highlight want I want to delete and select the delete funtion in the edit part of the bar. The other is to do the Command D shortcut. Neither of these work as of today. Yesterday it did indeed work for I changed some stuff before work. 
    I am nothing of a techy sort. Here is some info, but it may be invalid.
    *I have an eMac running Leopard.
    *iTunes 10.4 (I think) last update a few days ago.
    *iPhone 4...updated today with the new updates.
    *I have my music saved on an external harddrive. I have the folder set up to put my library there.
    *Edit/ Delete doesn't work, neither does Command D.
    This is the only issue I've ever had. Any suggestions?

    It could be an issue with permissions on your system.
    I would suggest beginning your troubleshooting by running Disk Utility (In the applications--> utilities folder), and choosing "Repair Permissions".
    You should also check to see if the music has a little exclamation mark next to the song -- that means it isn't able to find your music, and you'll want to doubleclick the song to make sure it plays okay.
    Secondly I would suggest you run Disk Utility again and this time you run it on your external drive and select "Repair Disk".  That will check your external drive for problems.
    My guess is that your iTunes Music Library file inside your User folder--> Music folder is damaged.. but see where you get with the Disk utility repairs first and let us know!

  • How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my old iPhone.

    How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs without affecting my iPhone 5? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my current iPhone. iTunes won't let me change the device name for the 3gs. I just want to use the old iPhone like an touch.

    Hi littlemansa,
    If I am understanding you correctly, it sounds like you are returning to an old iPhone that has been erased and you would like to set it up as a new device without restoring from a backup which would affect the name of your iPhone, as well as the contents therein. I have an article for you that can help you set up your iPhone as a new device, and that information can be found below:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT4137
    Basically, it seems like you may be stuck on a screen that is asking if you would like to restore your device from the backup that is filed under the name of your new iPhone, or if you would like to set up the device as a new device. I would suggest that you set it up as a new device to achieve your desired results. 
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • How do I add and remove music from iTunes in iPhone?

    I've been having trouble with my phone memory (16gb) being used up by music. I recently change setting to have it covert higher bit songs to 128 kbps which seemed to help.
    I just converted to new iOs 7 and it started downloading all music from iTunes in my laptop—which overfilled the memory again.
    I tried to go to manual sync and now I cannot see how to add or remove any music (and can't see the bar at the botto of the summary page which should tell me how the memory space is being used and what is available.

    I don't know. It seeme to disappear after I check that I would manually sync.
