Why are apps showing in music and playlists

never saw it before, but my apps are showing up in my music list and playlists - any idea why and how do remove without deleting the app? thanks.

They were bought by the same account and you haven't changed countries ? Some film studios don't allow re-downloading, but you should be able to copy/sync them between your computers/devices - film studios and other content providers occasionally remove their items from the store, so there is no guarantee that you will be able to redownload any item from the store.
If they are still in your country's store then you could check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919

I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users. Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS. When I look in the library under the get info screen it says they are in the folder itunes music, under the c: drive but when I actually go to that folder to look for them they are not there....HELP!

Hello RumDog,
I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
Where are my iTunes files located?

Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
You can then:
Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

How do you delete songs from iphone5, that are not in your iTunes library on the computer?! I have the spot unchecked where it says show all music and I still have songs on my iPhone that I want gone, but they're not in my iTunes library...HELP

I have a iPhone 5 with the most up to date software and I have songs appearing on my phone that I've deleted prior too from iTunes on the computer. How do I remove them from my phone, I've tried the left to right swipe and that just plays the songs! :/ Can anyone help me, I'd be forever grateful if I didn't have to go back to the store! I went I today abc he unchecked the show all music and there's still songs I don't want on my iPhone! :(

The answer to the question in the title of the thread is yes, but it is not necessarily a good idea. At some point you are likely to find you need to restore your iPod for one reason or another, or it could be lost, stolen or damaged. If your songs aren't on your computer, and backed up too, then you will be less than happy.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Why are the songs in my iphone playlists grey and I can't move them.

Why are the songs in my iPhone playlists grayed out. I am unable to move and organize them. I just downloaded some audio books from Audible and I cannot moved them to a playlist on my iPhone either. What step am I missing?

So, if I haven't made any albums, I can't move pictures in the main window of the Organizer?
Yes, you can't. The default order in the main window is based on date, ascending or descending when you are in the standard 'thumbnail view'. If you are in 'folder' view, with your folders shown in the left panel, you are shown the pictures in alphabetical order of the file names.
I haven't created albums yet.
I have so many pictures. I wanted to put all the pictures for each album next to each other so I can find them easily.
It's not difficult to create albums and 'drag' pictures in it. When an album is selected, you can move your pictures around in any order in the main window panel.
Albums are one way of grouping and ordering pictures. You should try to use keywords to organize and retrieve your pictures.

TS3376 The find my iPhone app shows my iPad and iPhone in a totally different location about 100 miles away and my devices are in my lap? I'm confused ...

The find my iPhone app shows my iPad and iPhone in a totally different location about 100 miles away and my devices are in my lap.... I'm confused ...

Any thoughts on this , I'm worried that someone has cloned my device Id and is phishing , or would there be just a major glitch in the GPS ? I have turned off the location app and turned it back on to see if it was a glitch still comes up to the same location about 100 miles way to a place I have never been. Help !

It doesn't say anything. It runs through the sync process like normal and tells me all of the songs that it's synking. But then when it says I can disconnect it, nothing actually synked.

I have an iPod Classic 5th Gen. After 1 month I've lost all my music and playlist files. The only files left are music I have purchased from iTunes. How do I restore my music library to my iPod?

I have an iPod Classic 5th Generation. I have not used it for about one month. When I turned it on, I had lost all my music and playlist files. The only thing left on the iPod was the music and audio books I have purchased from iTunes store. I tried to delete everything on the ipod by sliding the hold button and then pressing the center button and the menu and I saw the apple logo on the screen but the iPod wouldn't reboot. Any suggestions as to how I can delete everything on the iPod and then plug it into my computer to restore my music library? I am using a Windows 7 operating system.

Does both your Windows and Macbook iTunes have the same library of songs?
if it does then, much easier to proceed, else try to load the Macbook with the same library as Windows.
Note that only one of the Macbook USB port is good for iPod Classic, the other is too slow and may cause timeout, and I would suggest disconnect all other USB devices, while you Restore or Sync the iPod Classic.
Connect the iPod to the Mac, (if iTunes launch, please close it back.)
Use Disk Utility -> select the iPod Device->First Aid->Repair (use option FAT32)
After the Repair complete, eject the iPod.
Connect back to the Mac
When iTunes launch, Restore the iPod when Prompted, (use FAT32)
Sync your library.
Good Luck!

Syncing only music and playlists

Why can't I just sync my playlist and music between my iMac and my iPad? It always wants me to sync my apps and everything. I would like to only allow iTunes to sync my music and playlists, bottom line. Can anyone suggest anything? Thank you!

ITunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.

iTunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them. I reconnect to iTunes and it shows the music and books as being loaded on my iPod.
Sometimes the audiobook will play, then disappear from iPod's play menu after I reconnect to iTunes and load more music. I've got plenty of free memory, and iTunes shows the files still on iPod.
....or should I just roll it back to iOS 5... never had these kinds of issues with the old OS.

I'm trying to share to Media Browser a 20 minute still slide show with music and text. I have tried several times to save at 1080 HD, but just before it's finished, a message box pops up saying "File already open with write permission." What's this mean?

I'm trying to finalize/share to Media Browser a 20 minute still slide show with music and text. I'd like to finalize it 1080 hd and have tried several times, but just before it's finished, a message box pops up saying it can't be done because "File already open with with write permission." What does this mean? All files are closed; this iMovie project is the only thing open. Does it mean one of the song files from iTunes? And should I just settle for saving it as a "large" file, which is what I'm trying right now?
Thanks,
Jamie

How do I transfer music and playlists from an external hard drive to my new computer?

I just got a new pc and I need to transfer music and playlists that were saved to an external drive from 2 seperate computers. There are 2 different sets of music and playlists, one mine and the other my husbands.
Is it possible to put both onto my new pc, and if so...how. I am needing a step by step instruction as I am not real familiar with how to make these changes on iTunes.
Thanks in advance

How to access music and playlists on the same computer, for both Microsoft accounts?

Hello all,
My husband and I recently got a new computer and are running Windows 8.1. We were able to successfully use an external hard drive to transfer all of the music and playlists over so that I can access them on my user account (I am the "main" user). All of my playlists are present exactly as they were previously. This is the location of the iTunes media folder on our hard drive: C:\Users\Brittany\Music\iTunes
However, when my husband logs on as a user separately, the iTunes program is there, but we are only able to get him very limited access to some music. We can't get him access to any of the playlists, which is where the bulk of the music is.
We've tried everything. We've double-checked that he's an Administrator. We've made sure that all the folders are shared between us. We can both read and write to this folder location. We've gone into the preferences in iTunes itself and told it where we want it to find the iTunes Media folder. We also tried moving the iTunes media folder into the public shared music folder, and that didn't do a darn thing either. Nothing works.
I feel like we are missing some critical step somewhere. Or maybe we screwed something up somehow. I don't know. All I know is that it seems crazy if we're not going to be able to access the exact same version of iTunes complete with playlists. What gives?
Please help! Thank you!

We've gone into the preferences in iTunes itself and told it where we want it to find the iTunes Media folder.
This step is wrong. Make sure the iTunes folder in your profile is visible from his login, then press and hold down shift as you launch iTunes and browse to the iTunes Library.itl file in your library. It may be easier to store the library at C:\iTunes and have both accounts access it there.
See Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy for advice on how to keep the backup copy of your library on the external drive up to date.

I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?

I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?

If I go from 'Devices' to Summary and then Music, I only get one option-Sync Music,There is a box on this page but the options within it are grayed out. If I tick the Sync Music option I get this message-
'Are you sure you want to remove existing music,films,ect, from this ipod and sync with this itunes library?
'Music synced to (my ipods name) from other itunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this itunes library' I have only ever used itunes on this PC and the 'Manually manage music and videos' is ticked but
that must be a default setting as I haven't ticked it.
