Video in a music Library - no room?

Multiple libraries on multiple drives are needed! In the preferences we need to be able to put a music library, a movie library, a TV show library, a podcast library, and audiobook library etc. Because with movies taking 500MB - 1GB a 300GB hard drive is not going to be able to handle music, movies, shows, podcasts, audiobooks, etc. Unless we can download and re-download the movies timew and time again while paying once then that would be fine, but I don't think Apple would like that. We need to be ble to place many things on other drives!

Sigh. That did not work, either. I unchecked "Show List Checkboxes" and closed iTunes. Opened iTunes. Re-checked "Show List Checkboxes" and closed iTunes, opened iTunes...Nope. How does one re-install iTunes? By un-installing and downloading again from the Apple site?
This is why I installed the new version with great trepidation. Almost always something doesn't work. Feh.

  • Music videos appear in music library

    I hope someone can help. My music videos appear in my music library as well as in my music video library. How can I get them to appear in the video library only? Thanks in advance.

    You cannot. This is so you can also play the audio for those.

  • Download video -- Erases entire music library!!!

    What the freak is going on? When I try to add a movie to my ipod, it erases my entire music library from the unit ... then I have to go through the syncing music process files again. It's a little frustrating and time consuming. Second question, I have a 8G ipod video, model #A1236, 5 X 7 cm, silver-blue ... is that a 5th generation, 3rd generation, 'next' generation ... not sure.

    I click the 'movies' tab and select the button to sync only the selected title and it gives me the message that all music will be erased and the movie will be added. There's got to be a better way. That's not even usable. Someone tell me what needs to be clicked and selected to just be able to 'drag and drop' selected songs and movies. Why is i-Tunes such a headache and why are these things so popular instead of Zen players? I got this for Christmas so I gotta figure it out before I chuck it out my window. Please help.

    How can i transfer my music library in itunes to my phone,all the music was on my phone until i did an upgrade then I lost them.

    Connect your phone to your computer, click on the name of your phone on the left side of iTunes, then do the following:
    On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings check "Sync only checked songs and videos"
    In your music library check all the songs you want to sync to your phone
    Confirm that there are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
    Confirm that you have authorized your computer for all Apple IDs for purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize This Computer)
    Check "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings
    Sync your phone

  • Dropping videos into movies library but goes to music library on ipad

    I drap and drop home made videos (in .MOV) format into the Library labeled Movies. They show up on movies list okay. When I sync IPAD, movies go to my music library not movies.

    Actually, now they won't play on my iPad either.

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

  • Old 2005 Video iPod - How do I take music off and add to my iTunes music library?  And battery life issues...

    I bought my husband a Video iPod clear back in 2005.  I bought the 30GB serial No 4V544C1WTXK Model number A1136.  Yes, very, very old.  However, it is an Apple product and therefore should be good forever right?    We actually rarely used it then and have not used it in years.  I got it out and brushed it off the other day.  I have two questions:
    1-  I have some great music on it that I would like to transfer into my iTunes music library.  Is there a way to move it from the iPod into my iTunes library?
    2-  It isn't really holding a battery charge even when it's been charging for hours.  Is there anything I can do about that?  Do I need to replace the battery?  Is there even a way to replace the battery?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance.

    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    2-  It isn't really holding a battery charge even when it's been charging for hours.  Is there anything I can do about that?  Do I need to replace the battery? 
    Given the age of the device and that fact that it wasn't used for a lengthy period of time, it's likely that the iPod's battery is shot and in need of replacement.  Lithium-ion batteries need constant activity in order to maintain any sort of charge.  However, all batteries generally deteriote over time and lose their ability to charge. 
    Is there even a way to replace the battery?
    Yes.  You can choose to have Apple swap the battery for a new one for the price indicated on this page.

    You could also choose to send it to a third party service instead to have them swap it out at a much lower cost.  A Google search for "iPod battery replacement" should give you a number of results to work with.

  • HT203167 i bought anastacia's "cowboy's & kisses" video from iTunes and now has disappeared off my music library! where did it go?-i paid good money for it!

    i bought anastacia's "cowboy's & kisses" video from itunes and now it is gone, erased from my music library! it's not on the imac, or my ipad! where is it? i paid good money for it! these are tough times i want it back! i'm not going to pay for it again!

    You shouldn't have to pay again.   Log into iTunes with the same detail you used to purchase the original music and you should be able to download it again.
    If you meet a further problem go to ... http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express lane followed by iTunes > iTunes store.

  • Videos in Music Library

    I just purchased the Deluxe Video Edition of "Straight Outta Lynwood" which includes 8 videos along with the 12 music tracks. Instead of showing up in the Movie Library, the videos appeared in the Music Library. I can't figure out how to transfer them to my Movie Library so they sync onto my iPod. Please help.

  • Where can I find Music Videos in my iTunes Library

    I've recently converted my music videos to the "music videos" category under "Get Info" ~ "Options" ~ "Media Kind". Now the music video are in a separate category under Videos in my Ipod, the issue I can't seem to find them in my iTune Library. I've checked under "Preferences" and can't seem to find it.

    The one and only +music video+ that I downloaded from iTunes (it was free) is located (in iTunes) in the main Music library, sorted in the same way as all my regular non-video songs.

  • If I sync my iphone with a new music Library will I lose my pictures,videos, etc ?

    I have bought a new Macbook Air and I want to sync it with my iphone 5 ! But, I don't want to delete either my photos or my videos.. I just want to change my music library..

    Copy your itunes media library from your old PC and place it on your MAC.
    If you don't have access to the old PC then look at this link

  • Is it possible to exclude videos from music library?

    My sincere apologies if this question has been asked and answered before but searching returned nothing about it.
    Is there perhaps a setting to tweak that would prevent iTunes from listing videos (like music videos some albums include) alongside the music library? I usually uncheck them so they don't play after an album runs through but my OCD would much prefer they not even be listed in the same list. I don't want to remove them from my entire iTunes library but would prefer them only being visible within the movies tab.
    Thanks in advance!

    Media Kind = Movie or Media Kind = TV Show. Using the latter would let you group all music videos together into a TV Show called, for example, "Music Videos".

  • Make videos play in my music library

    I have many music videos in my "Movie" library.  I would like for them to play in my "Music" library.  Can this be done?
    Thanks,
    bonk!

    Oh, solved it myself!  Right-click on each video in the Movie library.  Choose "Get Info".  Go to "Options" Tab.  Change "Media Type" from Movie to Music Video.  The video then shows up in my music library, able to be shuffled/played just like any regular piece of music.  Pretty cool!
    bonk!

  • Having one iTunes music library for multiple computers via TimeCapsule

    Hi there,
    I'm just wondering how to best set-up my iTunes library. I want the library on my TimeCapsule wireless hard drive, and to be able to set this as the library for multiple computers at home. It's a waste of space to have duplicate libraries on both computers.I had this working with an earlier version of iTunes, but its not working now.
    I also want to know how I can get the wireless device to fire up simply by pressing the iTunes icon. If I do this without, iTunes says it can't find the library.
    Thanks.

    Frank, yes. Only one library of the songs and content if it's stuff from the Music Store.
    If the music is your own CD rips, then you can put all the music on a central server and have all the computers connect in on your home network.
    You do NOT set your iTunes to share their libraries, or look for shared libraries, you manually do the drag-and-drop with your networked music folder into the iTunes library window and each copy of iTunes behaves as if the network volume is it's own.
    The only shortcoming to this is if you add music with one machine, the others will NOT have the new songs added to their own library lists unless you drag and drop the songs into the iTunes library manually for each computer.
    I have enough music that I have broken down the library list into five folders, A-E, F-J, K-O, P-T, and U-Z. When I add new songs, the folders they're in will be added at the root Music Library folder level, so I can refresh the libraries with the new music THEN manually file it into one of those five correct folders.
    This is what my network library looks like:
    http://home.comcast.net/~foodandart/Network%20Library.jpg - you can see that I haven't added the Clapton, BBC, Roxy Music, etc, to the library lists for the entire house.
    The G4 frankenbeast computer in our living room, is the media server for the house and has the stereo system rigged through it and is used to rip vinyl and watch the video. I still have to refresh the libraries in my husband's laptop, and on my main internet computer, so those albums haven't been filed yet.
    Of course the caveat here is that I haven't a single item that's purchased through the Music Store and thusly locked down, since I rip my own LP's and CD's, so everything is much more flexible in how I can handle it.
    Deb.
