Why isn't my iTunes Library showing up on my iMac?

I updated my iTunes version and now my iTunes library is not showing up on my iMac even when i plug in a device, etc.

Why isn't my iTunes library showing up on the cloud?
How are you trying to access your Music in the cloud?
Have you signed up for iTunes match and let it upload your library? Are you signed in, when you are trying to download from the cloud?

  • Why isn't entire iTunes library showing up with iTunes Match activated?

    Hi all,
    I'm just getting started with Apple TV 3rd generation (running iTunes 11.1.2 on a 2-year old MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.5), and I'm very, very frustrated with how difficult it is to get my enitre iTunes library to show up on Apple TV. I thought it was possible to sync my library to the device, and wasted a lot of time trying to figure out how to do it before coming to the realization that this feature seems only to have been available in earlier generations of Apple TV. So last night I subscribed to iTunes Match and *finally* had access to my entire music library through Apple TV. But this afternoon when I turned on Apple TV, lo and behold it was back to displaying only my purchased music. I only briefly saw the "Turn on iTunes Match" message, and it was indeed turned on, but now I'm not even seeing that prompt. Can anyone tell me what the heck is going on, and how I can get Apple TV to display my entire iTunes library EVERY time I turn it on? Thanks much!

    This may or may not work. But have you tried setting your home country as the US? Another possibility - go to Settings --> General --> Parental Controls - make sure Netflix is set to show.
    If neither of those works. Sorry not sure why its not coming up.

  • Why doesn't my itunes library show all my music?

    It only shows recent purchases and nowhere near what I've got on my ipod. This means there's hardly any music I can sync to my iphone.

    Has this content ever shown in the iTunes library on your computer?
    Is the content actually on the computer?

    Why isn't my phone not showing up in itunes?

    Funny, I had the same problem today for the first time.  I had to connect it with the sync cable for it to show.  Normally, it's always there waiting for a wireless sync.  Strange!

  • Why aren't all my songs in my Itunes Library, showing as in Cloud?  I have Match on

    Why aren't all my songs in my Itunes Library, showing as in Cloud?  I have Match on

    Hi,
    Can you explain what you have done whilst matching your library. I have explained in previous posts what you should expect to see.
    The tracks with the download icon are in the cloud but if they have the download icon, this would suggest that the originals are no longer on your computer. Where are the original files?
    Your original post was regarding tracks not in the cloud. If you create a smart playlist with any of the following criteria - iCloud status not = matched, not = uploaded and not= purchased, you will establish tracks not in the cloud. What do you see when you have done this?

  • Why isn't my iTunes store loading properly? It lists everything in text without images, and I can't seem to access the store when I try to search for music or movies etc.

    1) The best way to relocate the iTunes library folder is to move the entire iTunes folder with all subfolders to the new path, then press and hold down shift as start iTunes and keep holding until prompted to choose a library, then browse to the relocated folder and open the file iTunes Library.itl inside it.
    If you've done something different then provide some more details about what is where and I should be able to help.
    2) Purchases on the device should automatically transfer to a Purchased on <DeviceName> playlist, but it my depend a bit on whether automatic iCloud downloads are enabled. If there is a cloudy link then the transfer might not happen. You can use File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. In iTunes you should also check out iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
    3) Backup the device, then immediately restore it. In some cases you need to add a restore as new device into that equation. Obbviously not to be attempted until you're sure all your media is in your library. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device should it be needed.
    4) I believe there is complimentary 1 incident 90-day support with hardware purchases, but no free software support for iTunes itself. AppleCare gets you a different level of support.

  • My iTunes library shows all music but there is an exclamation mark to the left on all entries and there is a message stating "original file could not be found" although all music is on the iPad.

    My iTunes library shows all music but there is an exclamation mark to the left on all entries and there is a message stating "original file could not be found" although all music is on the iPad.

    The massage means what it says. iTunes can't find the actual music files. All iTunes has is a database of where the files should be and they are not there.

    Why isn't my contact app showing?

    I'm having the same problem as well - on both the iPhone4 and iPad.  I can see my subscriptions if I sign in via Safari on either of the devices, but if I try to use the built in YouTube app, it says I have no subscriptions.  This started sometime on the 11th for me. I remember watching videos that morning through the app, but they were gone when I tried that afternoon.

  • Why isn't my restored iTunes library showing ANY of my music?

    I've recently built a new computer, and after installing iTunes and choosing my existing library (which has ALWAYS been on my external HD, not simply copied over), absolutely NOTHING is showing up.
    My iTunes library, including all of the iTunes created folders are all on my external HD, along with all of the media files themselves (in their own folders), which is where they have always been. If I plug this HD back into my old computer I can boot up iTunes, no problem, and all of my stuff is there.
    I've dug around support forums and followed everything I've found. I've set the path of the iTunes media folder in the advanced options to point to the same folder as the old computer, and triple checked to make sure the drive letter and everything is the same. I've started iTunes while holding 'shift', and selected the iTunes library file in that folder. I've even tried choosing the "previous iTunes library" files, to no avail. iTunes simply shows the music screen you would get with a fresh install and no library.
    How do I fix this? My library contained thousands upon thousands of songs, and was immaculately organized, correcting hundreds of tagging errors in the original files themselves (which mostly predated my iPod or iTunes, spanning back fifteen years or so, before I knew much about file organization). I have no desire to redo the entire thing from scratch.
    Any and all help is appreciated.

    It would seem your media folder is on the external drive, but your library database remains on the original computer. See make a split library portable.

  • TS2972 Why don't all the movies in iTunes library show up on Apple TV?

    I have five movies that I purchase from the iTunes Store in my iTunes library.  They all show up on Apple TV except for "Fantastic Mr. Fox" which does not.  Any guesses why not?

    If this is a silver AppleTV ensure the checkbox next to the Movie in the main library media categories is ticked.
    If not, could it have been purchased under a different AppleID?

  • Why does my iTunes library show up to be different sizes?

    I have about 2600 songs in my iTunes library. At the bottom of the iTunes library window, it says there are 2600 songs, 13.03gb. All of these songs fit on my 16gb iTouch.
    Now, when i go to finder>Music>iTunes>iTunes Music the folder is 114gb!
    WHY IS THIS SOOOO MUCH LARGER?
    It's the same contents that are in my iTunes library!

    Selecting Music in iTunes will show only your music.
    Selecting Music>iTunes>iTunes Music in the Finder shows everything in iTunes including music, movies, audiobooks, podcasts,TV Shows, etc.
    Go to Music>iTunes>iTunes Music>Music and this is only the music files.

  • Why doesn't my iTunes content show in Library? Also, How can I sync music purchased on my iPhone to my PC's iTunes Library?

    I have been having several annoying problems with iTunes for the past several months...
    1) Library content not showing after folder relocation:
    First, in order to free up space on my C drive, I wanted to relocate my iTunes folder to a new 1TB hard drive (F) I installed. I did so according to Apple's instructions online, but despite setting the new location to be my library in my iTunes preferences, the content never shows up in the iTunes Library in the actual application. This is my most annoying problem, so please someone help me to resolve this! Thanks.
    2) Albums purchased on iPhone 5 only sometimes sync with PC
    I have purchased a few albums on my iPhone 5 and only some of them have synced to my PC when I connect my iPhone via USB. They don't even appear under the "Purchases" playlist in the iTunes Store. So, I have content right now on my iPhone that I can only access via my iPhone, and some of the music has gone missing. One or two tracks from albums are not there despite me purchasing full albums at a time... This is also pretty dang annoying and prevents me from trying a solution I'd looked up to fix my third problem...
    3) Album artwork mixed up/mismatched on iPhone 5
    This is pretty self-explanatory. Ony day my album artwork decided to play musical chairs. So now, for example, it shows Andrew W.K.'s bloody face when I listen to Zedd, and shows Skrillex when I listen to Symphony X. I read online that if you desync your content on you iPhone so that none of the music is there any longer, and then resync content from your computer, it will fix this issue. I'm hesitant to apply this solution until I can fix the ones above though, because I don't want to lose content that I have legally paid for.
    My final problem:
    4) Apple charges $20 for a support phone call for iTunes
    Seriously, WTH? I hope the community can help me out. Thanks all!

    1) The best way to relocate the iTunes library folder is to move the entire iTunes folder with all subfolders to the new path, then press and hold down shift as start iTunes and keep holding until prompted to choose a library, then browse to the relocated folder and open the file iTunes Library.itl inside it.
