Synching i5s to new PC with iTunes; i5s playlists do not show up in iTunes

I am trying to synch my i5s to iTunes on a new PC running Windows 7 and after synching, the existing playlists on my i5s do not show up in iTunes. All the songs are there but not the playlists. How can I fix this?

Thank you. You were right. They all ended up being there and I copied them to the new computer and used the restore option etc. But now I have a new problem.
Even though all the 7000-odd songs show up in my iTunes library, for every single one if I want to play them, it tells me it can't find their location (with the little exclamation mark). What should I do?

  • I can't recall my passcode to my older iPod touch (after the newer one got stolen) and it's not showing up in iTunes, how can I restore it to clear the passcode?

    I can't recall the passcode to my older iPod, iPod touch 2g 8GB, (someone stole my 4g) and it's not showing up in iTunes, is there any other way to do a 'restore' to clear the old passcode and be able to access the iPod? Anyone???

    The only way is to restore the iPOd via iTunes. Have you tried:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    P
    Have yu tried setting your iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next wold be to place the iPod in recovery mode to see if iTunes will see it. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • New Beatles albums - track names and artwork not showing up in iTunes 9.0

    Has anyone else bought the new Beatles remastered CDs and tried to import into iTunes 9.0?
    All that shows up is Track 1, Track 2 etc and no album art.
    Is this due to there being video on these albums too and how can one deal with this issue?

    It is because they have not yet been added to the database that is used to provide the track information.
    When you insert a CD into your computer and it appears in iTunes, the iTunes software connects to a database and looks for the track names for the CD. If it finds the CD in the database the track names are downloaded and use to tag the music.
    The album art on the other hand is provided by the iTunes Music Store, so if an album is not available in the iTunes Store than you cannot get the album art for it. As the Beatles are not yet available in the iTunes Store you will not get the album art.

  • New computer with 7.01 firefox does not show previous bookmarks tho all other files restored with my ClickFree backup. Found the profile but cant open places.sqlite

    safely transferred all my saved files from old dead Vista to new computer with Windows 7 except for my firefox 7.01 bookmarks & QuickNote add on. i downloaded QuickNote but it is blank too. Found the profile C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\8oy034hg.default & places.sqlite but cant open the file.Windows ask what program I want to open the places.sqlite file & i said Firefox but it doesnt open. How do I open the file & get my bookmarks & QuickNote back. help pls

    Why not install and try Firefox portable, it may well be a good troubleshooting step. Try running it from an external memory stick.
    The threads you referred to
    * [/questions/956861] was closed but never solved
    *[/questions/958824] similar
    Some system information would help
    *How much RAM is installed ?
    *What is the total size of the Hard Disk Drive ?
    *What is the current amount of free-space in GB ? and as a percentage ?
    I try not to use Windows but certainly at one stage a rule of thumb was 20-25% free space should be available. Under about 12% defragging of a disk would likely fail. A page file would need to be larger than the amount of RAM maybe 1.5X , and a hibernate file would be the size of the RAM.
    * Do not Hibernate if you are low on HDD space.
    I suggest you proceed as follows
    #Answer the above questions. I worry you have a lack of diskspace.
    #Do a full scan with multiple and up-to-date anti-malware tools. Do not rely on Avast alone. No tool picks up everything. Report back what you scanned with and what was found.
    #Backup and keep whatever profiles may be good or may contain recent information such as passwords and bookmarks, but do not use them yet.
    #Download a new installer then Do a clean reinstall of Firefox, ensuring that the program folders are deleted before you re-install.
    #Now restart, you expect the first restart to work. Close down and try again does it now work OK ?
    The detailed instructions in the thread you read [/questions/958824#answer-436552] should help you.
    If you have continuing problems is this after a restart of Firefox, or a restart of the Windows Operating System ?

  • Movies Purchased on iTunes via iOS Devices not showing up in iTunes on my MacBook Pro

    I have some 40 movies that I have purchased through iTunes on my iPhone.  They all show up on my iOS devices as well as my Apple TV but only 8 of them show up on iTunes on my MacBook Pro. I have read threads from other users that found a resolution to their problem by "unhiding" the movies through iTunes in the Cloud but my account only shows Manage Devices & iTunes Match, so that didn't help unfortunately.  I am runing the latest version of Mountain Lion and iTunes and I have gone to "Check for Available Downloads" but a window just pops up saying "All purchases have been downloaded for this Apple ID".  Does anyone have any ideas or guidance on what I could or should do?

    Hello RepsolRider
    Go to the iTunes Store > Purchases, and then you should be able to see your purchases. Click the cloud icons to download your purchases. Also go to iTunes Preferences, go to the Store tab and make sure that Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases is checked.

    My ipod nano has been working fine for at least three years.  All of a sudden I get two messages.  First, "there is a problem with this drive, scan and fix it".
    And, an Ipod has been detected but can't be identified properly.  It's a 6th generation nano and I have Windows 8.  Any thoughts?

  • New epsisode not showing up in iTunes

    I posted a new episode last night, but it's not showing up in iTunes. I hit update podcast and the same one #27, keeps showing up.
    I use libsyn and the feed address is rubyfruit.libsyn.com/rss.
    Feedvalidator says it's correct and valid.
    I've heard about there sometimes being a lag, but I have never experienced it.
    Since I have never experienced this, i don't know if it's normal and if it's not normal, I have no idea whose fault it is.

    When your username includes a Charakter like "acson te graf" zhere is a Problem for Windows to find your installiert-Files. Yust Build another Username like "Dummy", give admistration rights, change to this user and install iTunes on this accout. Now you can Return to your Old account an use iTunes.
    I am still surching how to change the username in Windows but still no idea.

  • Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore. When chose for secret question brth date seems wrong. Can't reach anyone!!!

    Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore and I forgot the password (5 years old??). When chose for secret question birth date seems wrong. Tried everything. I need to make a new apple-id but cannot connect the music that I bought under my old name to my new name. Can't reach anyone!!! Automatic FAQ system is of no help. What to do?

    That doesn't help me. For itunes it brings me to the express lane which doesn't help because my case is not in it. It's all standard procedure things. I understand those but my situation is different. The combination of a passport forgotten and an non-existing email adress (and birth dates that are not correct or not accepted). What I need is my password emailed to another email adress than the original one because that no longer exists.

  • My new ipad will not sync with itunes.  the device does not show up in itunes

    my new ipad will not sync with itunes.  the device does not show up in itunes.  I am on a Windows system

    Do you have the absolute latest version of iTunes downloaded?  If your iTunes software has not been updated in some time, your iPad will not be recognized.  With iTunes open, click on Store at the top.  Check for available downloads and if there are any, download them.  Once you've verified you have the latest software, connect your device again, and it should be recognized.
