Why does the new itunes update say my songs will be deleted?

Is there a way around this?

Do the following two things:
In the left-hand pane, right-click the name of the playlist, choose Edit Smart Playlist, and make sure that "Live Updating" is checked.
In the list itself, click the column header for "Last Played" so that the list will sort according to when it was played, with most recent on top.

  • Why does the new Itunes freeze/do nothing when i click on my Ipod touch icon ?

    Why does the new Itunes freeze when i click on my Ipod touch icon to manage my content? All buttones, video, tv, info, music, they all do nothing. i was only able to sync by bringing up the old sidebar. Is this a software glitch, or am i missing a step? I just spent two days reorganizing and labeling all my music for the new itunes, and had to restore my ipod so i could upload my new library. i know what is supposed to come up when you click on the music or info tabs, but nothing happens, only the eject button works. whats going on?

    The screen is telling you to connect the iPod to your computer with iTunes with the USB connector.  iTunes should open and give you instructions as to what to do.  Whatyou need to need to do is to restore the iPod via iTunes.

  • Why does the new itunes not pull up my iphone when connected to the computer?

    I just downloaded the new Itunes 11 on my computer and when i plug my phone in it does not bring it up in itunes. it was trying to bring it up in real player so i uninstalled that and it still wont show in itunes. i have restarted my computer and phone multiple times as well ad uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and nothing is working.

    Thanks for your input but as i have said it is a Motorola V3i (The i means itunes compatable). I have uninstalled and re-installed every old version of itunes there is and it works perfect from itunes 5 up to itunes 9 then it goes wrong and does not recognise my device allowing me to sync. I am happy with itunes 9 but it will not allow me to keep it without updating it to itunes 11. The phone is recognised by the comp and appears in devices. Any further ideas will be welcome. Thanks

  • Why is the new ITune update slowing down my pc.

    I recently updated ITunes...It now comes with a helper exe.  Why did this change...It has slowed down my pc something terrible... I am running Microsoft Windows 7 64 bit..and never had this problem before...
    Seems I need the helper exe to access ITunes now...I do not like updates that decide what runs or doesn't run....Is there a solution to this. I have one apple product it is an IPad mini...If it wasn't for the fact that I have purchased music and apps.  It would end up in the garbage...That is how upset I am...
    If this is a way for Apple to make me want to buy their products it will not work...
    I have absolutely no problem with the ITune store on my IPad...just on on my desktop.

    Hi theresa62,
    The resource below explains the processes that are involved with the iTunes software installed with Windows 7.  It's possible to use your iPad mini without the corresponding iTunes software on your Windows computer .... but it would limit what you can do with it.  You can't sync your iPad with your computer, use iCloud services, etc. without the software.  The choice is totally up to you.

  • Why does the new iTunes take 5 years to add a new song?

    Regardless of whether I buy it from the store or download it from my browser, it takes a very long time to show up in my library.  It also doesn't always show up in my Recently Added playlist.  This was never an issue before the new version.  What's the deal?

    It works fine on my phone. Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

  • Why does the new iTunes put a new track in an unsorted playlist in the

    When I add a song to an unsorted playlist, I expect the track to be placed at the end of the tracks already there. iTunes puts it the added track in the #1 position. Or it does 9 times out of 10. It is not even predictable, which makes it worse.
    iTunes 12.0.1.26
    Windows 7, 64-bit, service pack 1
    500 GB, 4 TB RAM
    iTunes library stored on external 2 TB drive, more than 44,000 songs and over 270 GB.

    Do the following two things:
    In the left-hand pane, right-click the name of the playlist, choose Edit Smart Playlist, and make sure that "Live Updating" is checked.

    Wow, thanks! Although, Apple should be smart enough to turn this feature off as the default setting. I'm sure I am one of MANY people who are equally frustrated by this feature.
    THANKS FOR YOU HELP!!

    Resolved!
    After contacting Apple, I received a reply from their engineers:
    Copy QTMovieWin.dll from:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    to: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    And that did the trick.

  • Trying to install the new itunes update and it keeps saying error could not install itunes. Currently I am running windows 7. Any advise to fix this problem.

    Trying to install the new itunes update and it keeps saying error could not install itunes. Currently I am running windows 7. Any advise to fix this problem. This is doing this when installing itunes/quicktime, safari 5, mobileme control panel, and the software update itself. The itunes version is 10.3.1

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • The new iTunes update gives me no option for a "share" tab on the side bar for me to play home shared music. why? please help i need to listen to beyonce!! plzzz

    The new iTunes update gives me no option for a "share" tab on the side bar for me to play home shared music. why? please help i need to listen to beyonce!! plzzz

    "share tab on the side bar ..."
    iTunes has not had a sidebar for over a year.  You can see one (as iTunes 10 used to show) by doing View > Show Sidebar from iTunes' menu.
    But I'm not sure if that is your issue.  You do not need a sidebar to do home sharing.  Are you running the current iTunes (11.1.3)?  Have you turned on sharing in Preferences?   Have you done File > Turn on Home Sharing?

  • HT1338 My iTunes won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I need an updated iTunes, but when I try to download the new iTunes, it says that my Mac software (10.5.8) is too old. However, there are no software updates available. What can I do?

    It depends on what iPhone you have.
    If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
    If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.
