Song's in a playlist.......but I can't see it in the Music Library.

The only way I can play the song is by opening it out of the playlist.
How can that be?
I thought playlists were composed of "shortcuts" to the Music Library. So, by definition, anything in a playlist had to be in the library.
???????

Apparently, time heals all wounds.
The song is in the library now......big as life.
I wasn't high, I wasn't drunk. It wasn't there a couple of days ago.
And I looked hard!
We'll have to add this to the "life's unsolved mysteries" list.

    2nd > I purchased 21 new tunes yesterday on the new computer> worked great> but when I made a disc to transfer the playlist. I get the music but no album info just 1,2,3,etc. So I have signup both computers to share thinking that would work. But no to that also.
    Please advise.
    Thanks,

    Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to new computer.

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

    With the iPad connected to the computer, while iTunes is running, click on the iPad name on the left side under devices. Click on the Movies tab and look for Movie Rentals. You want to "Move" the films to the iPad.

    4. In case any of the previous operations work but the settings don't "stick".  There are two plists associated with the settings:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist
    ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.windowserver.XXXXX-XXXXXXX.plist
    The first is global to all accounts while the second is in your home directory.  The X's are a sequence of hyphaninated  letters and numbers.  If you can get these removed then it will probably revert to a default resolution.

    There really isn't any workaround to the cost. You can't get the parts needed to fix it yourself. Only Apple has those parts and they do not sell them to end users.
    Sure you could take it apart and clean everything and the screen might start working again but then it might not. Depending on what cause it to stop working in the first place. Like something got shorted out.

  • HT1451 I can't see ipod on the itunes library page anymore.  how do i transfer musci from my library to my ipod?

    I can't see ipod on the itunes library page anymore.  how do i transfer music from the hard drive to my ipod now?

    Click on the button for the iPod on the iTunes header bar, e.g.:
    or go to the View menu and select "Show Sidebar" after which iTunes 11 will look much as earlier versions did. From there the process is exactly the same.
    Regards.

  • Added albums to iTunes, but they do not show up in the Music Library view.

    I imported some albums and the albums do not show up in the Music Library view, however I created a playlist containing all songs added today and they show right up. Is there a fix for this?

    They don't show up at all or they don't show up where you expect them to?
    The iTunes Library is divided into a number of sources, Music, Podcasts, Books etc. Each file added ends up in just one of these sources depending on its *Media Kind* plus any playlists for which it has matching criteria.
    Settings such as *Part of a Compilation, Sort Artist* or *Sort Album Artist* can make albums appear in an unexpected location within Music.

  • I started downloading a song from iTunes and then stopped it in the middle of the download cause it froze, but when I tried to redownload it, iTunes said the song was already downloaded. But it does not show up in my music library on my phone. Help?

    I bought a song on iTunes and it started downloading but then about half way through it seemed to stop downloading so I pressed the square stop button in he middle of the downloading circle so that I could try and restart the download. But when I went back to iTunes, instead of having the cloud and the arrow to let me download the song from the cloud next to it, it said "Play" as if I had already downloaded the song. So I went back to my music library to try and find the song but it's not there and iTunes isn't letting me download it cause it says I already have it. Please help.

  • My icloud storage is full but i can't see where all the data is.

    I am using an iPhone 4S.  My iCloud (free) storage of 5GB is approaching full usage.  When I try to free up some space, the documents and data only amount to less than 20MB.  I can't see where the rest of the 4.88MB is used and is totally invisible to me.  Please help

    Hey Dragonfly1981,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Take a look at the article linked below, it provides a lot of great information that will help you find out what’s taking up the other 4.8 GB of data and choose what you want to be backed up.
    Manage your iCloud storage
    I hope this helps,

  • Can not See All of my Music Library on the play list

    I accidently moved my music library (My documents/My music/my itunes...)
    When I moved it back, iTunes does not see all the song (over 2000). It only see the purchased music. I can use the Add to Library function (In the File menu) and add each song, song by song and I have added a few dozen songs back to the play list. So all the music is there, in the directory, Just can not get iTunes to recogize them.
    ANY suggestions to adding the whole library back at once.
    Thanks

    Do you at least have the little ! (exclamation point) next to the "missing" songs?
    I just had the same thing happen to me, but mine occurred simply by upgrading to the latest version of iTunes... in the process it "lost" about half of my music.
    I simply unchecked "Keep iTunes Music folder organized" under prefrences/advanced tab.. hit "OK", then went back in and re-checked it, hit OK and iTunes began "organizing" my library and miraculously iTunes found all of the missing music.
    There are some decent articles about moving your iTunes library on the support site. They don't always work as advertised, but you're pretty much stuck with My Documents/My Music/iTunes on Windows.
    You may be able to reverse things by following those instructions as well.

  • How can I see what drive the music I download is going to?

    How can I see where the music I download and put in Itunes is being stored in?

    To find out where a file is stored, select the item in iTunes and choose File > Get Info. The path to the file is shown at the bottom of the Summary pane (the Where section).

  • My external hard drive is working fine but I can't see any of the files

    I've been using a goflex external hard drive to store photos for a little over a year. It has been connected to my Mac desktop for about three months and it is still working but now when I try and view it or any of the files nothing shows up. I can still edit and manipulate files through apps like aperature, but I have no access to those photos? Is there any trick to being able to view these files again?

    Attach the HDD to your MBP and open Disk Utility.  Take screen shots of of the HDD and the volume.  Please note the differences.  View the examples from mine:
