Songs not appearing in Music list when imported

Question

When importing a CD (or even purchasing via the iTunes store) the new tracks do not appear in my Music list, even though the songs are sorted by date added - the only way I can view new tracks as they import from a CD is by signing out of the iTunes store!!!
Surely this cannot be right?
For info, I have not paid a subscription to "Song Match" (or whatever that completely useless feature is called!) - I've read that that feature has caused a similar problem for some people.
Oh, and does anyone have any inside information as to whether Apple have taken notice about the plethora of complaints about the dreadful iTunes 11? I for one have already submitted 3 complaints to them... so far!
Many thanks!

Answer 1

If you both want to use the same library (all songs, movies, playlists, ratings, etc.), do this…
1 - Quit iTunes.
2 - Move your entire /Users/'me'/Music/iTunes/ folder to /Users/Shared/.
3 - Move all the folders/files in /Shared/iTunes media/ to /Users/Shared/iTunes/iTunes media/ folder.
4 - Hold Option and launch iTunes.
5 - Select *Choose library...*
6 - Select the /Users/Shared/iTunes/ folder then click Choose.
Everything should work fine.
Quit iTunes then log into your wife's account.
1 - Hold Option and launch iTunes.
2- Select *Choose library…*
3- Select the /Users/Shared/iTunes/ folder then click Choose.
That's it! If you are using Fast User switching, only one person at at time can use iTunes.
Any changes made by either person will be seen by the other.
