Why do some songs on iPod not appear in My Computer?

My iTunes library has most of the songs that are on my 60Gb iPod photo. It has approx. 2600 of the 2900 songs that are on my iPod. It is set to manually update as I don't want to lose the 300 odd songs that are on my iPod.When I open the iPod (E:) in My Computer, only the 2600 songs show though.Basically, there are about 300 songs that are on my iPod that are not picked up in iTunes library or My Computer.How do I get them into iTunes library so that I can finally set my iPod to automatically update?Please help.Thanks

Why does some of my music not appear in my music app on the iPhone but I can search and play it through iPhone search?

A few albums and songs are in my iPhone 4S but don't appear in my music app, to play them, I must search for it using search iPhone

This seems like a very innocent post, but in digging more on the problem I've also seen this (some music recopies with every sync) with 9.1.1 level code. Apple Software Update said my system was fine, and iTunes itself also said it was up to date. However the reported code level is 9.1.1.11 rather than 9.1.1.12. After I manually downloaded and installed the most current .12 version, on 2 different machines btw, I noticed that the library needed to be updated yet again. Let me tell you that on a 1TB library this takes a long long time.
After another re-copy cycle, and did some more sync tests and this time I'm not getting the re-copy to happen, so the problem appears to be cleared up.
Again, issues like this are magnified significantly on systems with very large library.

Why are some of my downloads not appearing in my download folder?

Yesterday, I downloaded a publishing template from createspace.com. I worked in the template all day. I did not save it to my computer, because I figured it would be in my download folder, but today when I tried to find it there, it was not there. This is not the first time that a download is missing from the downloads file. Am I doing anything wrong?

hello suwaneesid, you may have selected to open (instead of save) the file which will download it into windows temporary folder & opened with an associate program, but where it gets deleted again after it has been used.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Where exactly are you looking and what do they look like, there are several iCloud icons used in iTunes.
Maybe a screenshot.

Why does my IPod not appear in Compter or Device Manager or ITunes using Windows 7?

My 5th generation IPod does not appear on ITunes. Likewise, it does not appear in my OS Windows 7 in the folder: Computer nor does it appear in the window: Device Manager. Is this because Windows 7 does not recognize the IPod? I've had my new computer (1TB, Win. 7, etc) for several months which replaced an older computer with OS Win. XP. The IPod worked fine on XP and I suspect Win. 7 is the issue here? Correct? Windows 7 doesn't recognize several devices and feel like it's planned obsolescence! What is the alternative here if it's Win 7? I have no plans/interest to buy a new IPod, btw!

Hello Gary,
I would be concerned too if my iPod was no longer recognized by iTunes. I found an article with steps to assist with getting iTunes to recognize your iPod on a Windows computer:
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows

My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties

My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties.
First off, I'm using Windows XP (and Mac SnowLeopard) Here's how it started. For some reason my ipod started showing up as a camera when I plugged it in. It works fine in itunes, though. But when I tried to access it from "my computer" it only
showed me the one and only picture I had on my ipod. I deleted that picture hoping it would no longer show up as a camera. When it still did I right-clicked on it in "my computer" and selected "properties". Under "autoplay" I
chose for it to 'not show up' or 'take no action' or some such deal when I plugged it in. I thought that would stop it from popping up the window that asks whether i want to 'open camera wizard' or 'open camera scanning' or 'open folder to view files' or 'take
no action' , etc. But now it won't show up in "my computer" at all. I also have a Mac with SnowLeopard. When I plugged my ipod into it my ipod doesn't show up in "finder" either! So basically my problem is not a mechanical one with hardware
or software; yht ipod still works fine in itunes. I just need to undo the change I made. I've searched all around my preferences, utilities, options, etc. It shows up on my "Device Manager" but not on "Disk Management".
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
To show up in Windows Explorer, you can try placing the iPod into
disk mode.
Moreover, i recommend you to
restore ipod to factory settings.
If this issue still persists, locate to device manager, uninstall and reinstall USB Mass Storage Device driver.

4 of the songs on a recently purchased album do not appear on my computer. I bought the album on my phone, and all of the songs are accounted for there, but on my computer it shows as an incomplete album and ITunes wants me to buy the missing songs?

I recently purchased Slipknot's ".5: The Gray Chapter" on my phone via an ITunes gift card worth $15 dollars. The album did have some trouble downloading because of a bad signal, and a good number of songs "could not be downloaded at this time". To download the missing songs, I had to go into ITunes store>more>purchased>music>all songs and click download on the few that didn't. This fixed that problem, and now the entire album is on my phone, but when the album transferred over to my computer, 4 of the songs still did not appear. Not only that, it says that they have not been purchased. The ITunes card I used only has a dollor left on it, so I know it registered the purchase. The 10th, 14th, 15th, and 16th tracks still have $1.29 next to them, and ITunes is showing the album as an incomplete.

We are having this same issue. We have over 200 songs that are now missing and only our most recent ones show up in our ITunes library. Fortunately we have one phone that still has all of our music still in tact. This phone is no longer one I will be using as I upgraded to the Iphone 6, and only the most recent purchased songs remain. The rest are no where to be found and the iTunes store shows that I would need to re-purchase. Not sure what to do as when I tried to sync my last phone, all the songs were gone.

Why are some of my movies not syncing while others are? All of my movies are in m4v form, and some of them sync but some of them don't.

Why are some of my movies not syncing while others are? All of my movies are in m4v form, and some of them sync but some of them don't. Also, when i try to play my movies on my mac AND ipod, some of my movies just randomly freeze and wont let me continue watching. I dont understand why its doing this.

HT4914 why do some songs grayed out and only available when connected on wifi when trying to stream on iphone?

why do some songs grayed out and only available when connected on wifi when trying to stream on iphone?

I had this problem too - of grayed out music I could only play when in WIFI. I noticed when looking in iTunes, these grayed song were not chosen by me to sync on to my iPhone. They were stored in iCloud. I went to Settings > Music and then turned off "Show All Music" so only music that has been dowloaded to my iPhone will be shown.
I don't have iTunes Match, so you may have a different issue than what I had.

Ipod not appearing on Itunes...Please Help

It would be best to post your question in the general iTunes forums. This forum is for those administering iTunes U sites, so it's not the best place to ask general iTunes usage questions (which is probably why the original question has gone unanswered).

Why are some famous cd's not matched

Here are a few of the CD's that iTunes failed to match on my system
Aqualung - Jethro Tull
The Beatles (White Album)
The Best of Elvis Costello And the Attractions
Fame and Fashion - David Bowie's Greatest Hits
Legend - Bob Marley & The Wailers
Why wouln't these match? (This is just a sample, most CD's did match). These are not obscure CD's, the titles have not been changed.
Also, why do some songs from a C/D match and others don't. One example: Pink Floyd Dark Side of The Moon (another resonably well know CD).
Thanks for any advice on getting them to match. I have turned match off and back on and rescanned etc.

All 226 Beatles songs from the 2009 remasters matched for me. It's the one full discography that I not only own, but attempted in iTM. SCITTBW, from my testing, is problematic on the original 80's CD only (I tested that as well). As for DSOTM, how many times has that been remastered? This is one of those albums that seems to get the remaster treatment every few years, so it doesn't surprise me that it would not match most of the time.
As for the adverts, of course it's going to be deceptive - it's an advertisement. I've actually read them over and it says "most of" or "probably", so there's that wiggle room in case someone complains. But I agree with you that masterings are never brought up and perhaps it should be (even as a footnote at the bottom - something like "there is no guarantee that your albums will match due to masterings, bitrate or other factors out of our control"). But I only can't see how having multiple masterings of these albums in the Cloud are going to be feasible for them - it may not even be allowed by the labels.
I've actuallly done some more tests with my own CD rips, and the general pattern I've seen so far is that music from the last decade or so, in general, matches quite well. But CD's from the 80's or early 90's have a significantly lower chance of matching - sometimes it's OOP so it would upload 100%, or there was one or more remasters where one or more tracks don't match anymore. But I still get a few recent CD's that have that one elusive uploaded track that makes no sense at all.

Some CGM graphics do not appear when FrameMaker files are converted to PDF

CGM files are exported from ISO (Arbortext Isodraw 7.0 CadProcess) files. Then they are imported into Adobe FrameMaker 7.2, where all elements of the illustration are visible and can be printed. The FrameMaker FM file is converted to a PDF file using the Adobe PDF converter function of Frame. When the PDF file is opened by Adobe Acrobat 8,0 Professional, some, but not all of the illustrations in the file exhibit this problem (The callouts and other text may appear, but the lines, curves, etc. do not). The illustration prints the same way it appears on the screen. When exporting the ISO file as a CGM, the following selections are made.
When importing file into Frame, "Import by Reference" is selected.
When creating PDF in Frame, the following selections are made.
Any Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much.

Thanks, Michael.
I will give it a try.

First you should update to the latest version of Acrobat 8, since you say
you are running Acrobat 8, you should update to 8.2.5. Update your
FrameMaker to 7.2p158. Those two steps might do the trick. If that fails
try using a different settings file. Perhaps High Quality or Press
Quality. I would never use Standard for anything where fidelity is
important.
