Where is the Show menu button that is supposed to be at the bottom of the window

where i sthe Show menu button that is supposed to be at the bottom of the iTunes window that will allow me to move music from one computer library  to another?

Thank you but I have now solved my problem.
I was trying to move music files from one iTunes library on one computer to the iTunes library on another computer.
The instructions on the Apple site tell you to open sharing on both libraries and then use the Show menu button at the bottom of the window to select 'items not in my library'
What they don't tell you is that the button is on a hidden toolbar that will only appear if both libraries are logged in to the same account with the same ID and passward in Home Sharing which is in the Advanced drop down menu.
I had Home Sharing switched on in my Preferences but was not using identical IDs & passwords.
As the toolbar with the Show menu botton was hidden I could not see it until I worked out that both computers needed an identical log-in. With that done after various trial and error efforts I found the button and was able to move the files.
Thanks for your help.

  • I can't move the "Show Downloads" button in Safari 6

    I would like to move the "Show Downloads" button that is, by default, in the upper right-hand corner of the all windows that show the toolbar in Safari 6. When I use the Customize Toolbar interface I can't seem to get any interaction with the "Show Downloads" button to stick; dragging it to another place on the toolbar causes it to revert to its previous position, as does attempting to remove it from the toolbar alltogether. When attempting to remove it, it produces the little smoke puff animation that is supposed to happen but it simply reappears in the same place. Is there no way to change this button's location? Why not?

    Try clicking on View, then clicking the Show Downloads text in that menu. When I tried that, the button dissapears after you clear them.

  • HT2688 where is the "show menu" that supposed to be at the bottom of the itunes window?

    help menu says when importing items from other libraries it says to "choose 'items not in my library'" which is located in the show menu at the bottom the itunes window.  Anyone know how to get there or where that is?

    Hello JHernandez89,
    After you have Home Sharing enabled on both computers, you can select the shared library in iTunes, and the Show dropdown menu is in the lower left corner:
    The best way to avoid duplication is to use the Show menu located in the lower-left corner. Choose "Items not in my library" before transferring any content.
    I recommend following the steps in the section titled "Setting up Home Sharing in iTunes" on both computers in the following article (step 3 in this article states to go to File>Devices>Turn On Home Sharing, but in the latest version of iTunes you would need to go to File>Home Sharing>Turn On Home Sharing):
    iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer

  • Where is the "firefox button" that is used to change tab location ("click on the Firefox button, go over to the Options... arrow and uncheck Tabs on Top. ")

    Where is the "firefox button" that is used to change tab location ("click on the Firefox button, go over to the Options... arrow and uncheck Tabs on Top. ") (from article).
    The "Tools" menu has an "Options" selection, but I cannot find in any of those menus a selection controlling the location of the tabs. Where is the "Firefox Button" referred to in the article "Why are tabs on Top?"

    If you turn on the classic menu bar, that replaces the orange Firefox button. To get the Firefox button back, right-click the menu bar to display the toolbars list, and uncheck Menu Bar.
    You can always temporarily display the classic menu bar by tapping the Alt key or pressing F10.
    The toolbar list pop-up also lets you control Tabs on Top.

  • Where is the Show menu

    Where is the "Show menu" referenced in the home sharing instructions?

    It's normally down at the bottom of the screen showing the contents of the shared library, as per the following screenshot:
    Is it missing from there for you?

  • TS2972 Home Sharing, Where is the Show Menu?

    Hi,  I have read the directions for Home Sharing.  My Shared Music Files are showing under the Shared section.  The directions then say to go to the Show Menu and choose files to import.  Where is the Show Menu?  It is not at the bottom of the screen.

  • Any idea what happened to the "Show All " button in my organizer ?

    I am still very much a rookie at all of this so please bear with me. I have been working my way through the lessons in the "Photoshop Elements 7 Classroom in a Book" publication, and am on Lesson 3,page 106,  step 4, of the "Viewing and Managing Files by Folder Location" feature ,which tells me to........
    "Click the Display button and then choose Thumbnail View from the menu. In the Photo Browser,click Show All".......
    There is NO "Show All " button option offered on my screen. Any idea where my "Show All " button might be hiding ? I had one awhile back ,but have no idea where it is now ?

    More generally, Show All will only show when the Organizer isn't showing all your photos.  For example, if you click on a tag to show just the photos with that tag, the Show All button will show up.
    Alas, what I said above isn't completely true.   There are a number of situations where this rule doesn't hold:
    - When you've restricted the photos shown to a date range using Find > Set Date Range.
    - When you've restricted which media types to show using View > Media Types.
    - When you type text quickly into the search box and hit enter (on a large catalog).

  • When my husband and I try to share our libraries and import from each others libraries, we get as far as seeing the library on the screen. The next step is to look for the 'Show' menu at the bottom of the screen, but neither of us has any such thing. ?

    When my husband and I try to import from each other's libraries, using Home Sharing, we are intructed to look for the "Show" menu at the bottom of the screen. Neither of us has anything like this on our screens. How and where do we locate it? We both have the latest itunes running.

  • Can the Firefox menu button be hidden so I can use just the menu bar?

    When I start firefox initially the menu button shows up, but if I open up other firefox windows then no firefox menu button. I want to hide the button so I can use just the menu bar. I had no firefox menu button until today, and no recent changes to my addons that I know of.

    The problem seems to be more than just a corrupted system file because it even with a partition restore firefox does a partial reset of addon configurations. The initial window with the firefox menu button then won't allow addon configuration, I have to start up a secondary window to do this.

  • No Templates after clicking the Show Stationery button

    I installed OS X 10.5 the day after it was available and now have updated to 10.5.1.
    I never got around to testing mail stationery until now and I have a problem.
    I start a new message.
    I click on the Show Stationery button and a panel appears.
    The help screens suggest that in this panel there should be categories to click on to see all the existing templates. However there are no categories and no templates. Instead I get a panel titled favorites and below that the statement "Drag your favorite stationery into this collection." When I click on Show Stationery again, the panel goes away. Click again I get an empty panel. Click again and the empty panel increases in size, etc.
    How do I solve this problem.
