• Some songs bought on Itunes and add them to an existing selection. They appear in the playlist and on computer but will not be synchronized to the Iphone. Help, please!

  Bought a few songs on ITunes and add them to an existing selection. They appear on the computer and in the playlist, but will not be synced to an existing selection on the IPhone 6. Help, please.

• I want to use my mac and my husbands phone connect to itunes. Even when I sign out of itunes and make him sign in my playlists continue to flow upward

  I want to synchronize my husbands iphone with my mac. I signed on itunes and entered his information. When I plug my song itunes phone, albums etc still come to the top. How his upcoming itunes?

  If you synchronize your husband's phone using your copy of iTunes, then this is exactly what will happen. "Signing in" if applies to the iTunes account (for example when you use the iTunes Store), but iTunes will always refer to the iTunes Library that is in your own home folder which means that your playlists, songs etc.

  If this isn't a problem, then leave things as they are. The alternative is for your husband to have its own folder of iTunes music on your Mac with all HIS songs and playlists etc. To do this hold down the Option key when you launch iTunes and he invites you open or create a different library. If you do it for your husband be aware that the library will be empty until you / he adds content.

  A question - how your husband have his music on his iPhone first? Another computer?

• Missing iTunes library and playlists... Please help

  Hello, this morning to my horror, I started iTunes and all my 20,000 songs and playlists, I spent years developing are absent.  Would it be a problem with my hard drive or a disk that allows iTunes search startup files?  I checked the path to the file and it seems that the music is always in their folders however re import all would not get the playlists back and on top of that the last backup I have was from 2014.    Can anyone help

  It is possible that your iTunes library file has become corrupted, so iTunes has started up with a new iTunes library.  Or you may have accidentally set iTunes to open a new iTunes library.  If you use the default configuration, the iTunes library file is located in your iTunes folder and called iTunes Library.itl, to this place

  [startup drive] /Users/ [your name of user account] / music/iTunes/iTunes Library.itl

  NOTE: The iTunes library file is a database that defines your iTunes library.  It contains no files media real iTunes, which are organized and stored separately.

  Go to this location using a Finder window; What do you see?  If you see a file called iTunes Library.itl here, quit iTunes (if you run) and use this method to open iTunes using this library file.

  Open a different iTunes library file or create a new - Apple Support

  If it does not open or if you still get a library empty in iTunes, you use Time Machine to back up your boot drive?  If you do, you can restore your library iTunes from a State of backup file (date/time) when it does not have this problem.  In your case, it would be immediately before the last time you used iTunes with a working library.  Time Machine does incremental backups every hour, so this should be very close to when the problem occurred, if your iTunes library should be updated more often.

  If you do not have a backup (why not?) of your user data, look in the folder iTunes for a folder called Previous iTunes Libraries.  iTunes, these backups when there is a major update to iTunes, in the case where something bad happens or the user must go back to a previous version of iTunes for some reason any.  If the last backup of 'previous' iTunes library is not too old, you can use this library file to open iTunes, using this procedure

• Why my side song erased and playlists were emptied on iTunes?

  I'm looking for a possible explanation as to why this particular thing happened if it does not happen in the future. I tried to cover all the details that I thought was appropriate where a person can say exactly what happened.

  First of all, I have a modest library of 3500 songs on my iTunes I keep pretty organized with playlists and rating stars, and I'm trying to store all my data locally (ie. not on the cloud). I synchronize my entire library to my iPhone, so basically I'm trying to keep my iTunes and iPhone music library identical library and have all my music physically downloaded to my phone (music so only available offline). I don't use iCloud music library and hold.

  I use Apple music on my phone, however, to discover new music. I had it on automatic renewal for a couple of months but let my membership lapse one maybe a more than a week ago - ergo, I didn't not Apple music for several days.

  I decided to take out a few days ago and everything was good. I had synced my phone since my subscription expired because I had not added to any music, until yesterday when I bought some singles on iTunes I want to synchronize my phone. However, they would not sync with my phone after 2 or 3 attempts, then I looked around my phone settings and noticed that iCloud music library was running. I'm sure that when I re-subscribed to Apple's music, it turns out iCloud music library somehow.

  Then I disabled iCloud music library, and then I tried to sync again. Only this time, a majority of my music bought were not sync to my phone. Any other synchronized through music. The only way to access my music bought on my phone was to "show all music" and I guess that flows to my phone. Some of them would stream and I had the opportunity to 'download to the phone' but most of them wouldn't even either, they would simply appear in my library of phone but unable to play. Still the same after sync 2 times more.

  I deleted all the music on my phone through my phone settings and then synchronized with the sync option is not all music on iTunes and for some reason that still synchronize a purchased song. I deleted manually, this song changed to 'synchronize all music' on iTunes re - transfer my entire library to my phone, but it still refuses to transfer nearly all of my purchased music. And on top of that, I noticed all but 40 of 3500 ~ songs had their side to star cleared on iTunes, the end of the synchronization.

  One last shot to try to get my music on my phone, I deleted all the music again once, backed up my phone, it completely, restore the backup and finally sync all reset.

  Finally, I clicked on one of my playlists and noticed it was empty. I checked the rest, and all my manual playlists were empty. Only filled have been my smart playlists, relying on the date added and play counts.

  Basically, the entire structure of my entire library is ruined. I have no idea why or how it happened but I am sure iCloud music library was the beginning of it. I tried to restore temporary files without success, nor that any itunes library previous saved files help. I have a full September 2015 iTunes backup that has all until the preserved month, but I tore a lot of albums for Christmas and I don't want to lose the date added / play metadata count. I've temporarily restored the library September 2015 and screenshotted as much as I could, so I just have to manually recreate playlists and enter again in the ratings.

  Take a look at this thread for some thoughts: lose the song playing in iTunes 11

  It would be possible to edit the script I mentioned it to recover a portion of your lost data.

• 9.3.2 iOS doesn't let me play my music and playlists. I simply press the icon of the song or playlist and it blocks the entire application

  I went into my music and tried to watch my playlists but right as I clicked it the whole app just crashes, even with just clicking on my songs. And they never load completely. My phone had a lot of problems and it is fairly new but Apple just says it's perfectly fine.

  Hi Grayhmm,

  I understand you encounter some problems of access to your content to Apple's music using the music app on your iPhone. I know it's important to have reliable access to your members of Apple's music! I want to make a few suggestions that can help you.

  Given that you have noticed the music app if crush, I recommend you restart your iPhone first. Once you have restarted the unit, open the music application and see if you still notice any problems.

  If the problem persists after restarting the iPhone, try to connect to your Apple ID in settings > iTunes and App Store. This will you sign out of your account Apple music and will remove all content you have saved on your device for offline listening. To do this, go to settings > iTunes and App Store and tap your Apple ID at the top of this page. Choose the option to disconnect, then connect you to the back using your Apple ID and password. Once you have signed in, open the music application and see if you continue to note any problems.

  Take care!

• To learn more about itunes and sharing home

  Hello

  I have and love the opportunity to get extra icons on my profile for price and specialties. My current project for me is to add a full and complete understanding on iTunes and home sharing and be able to share music in all of my devices because I must admit that this is one really confuses me.    I would like to know how to add iTunes and or House sharing icon for my dishes on my profile. Specifically what I'm asking, it's where I go take some tutorials and perhaps start a discussion to get feedback from other members of the community to find out.    My goal is to be able to see the same music on my iPad that exist completely on my iTunes on my windows laptop 10. Wayback when I started with iTunes I thought that whole concept of iTunes was that what you install on your iTunes on your laptop or another computer would be Ewelle a bowl on all your devices which are related through sharing and your iCloud account but where I am now is that my library is entirely on my windows laptop in iTunes 10 but I very content limited on my iTunes or this called my music on my iPad that has iOS 9.3.  I would like to have my music synchronized from my laptop to new windows 10 to my iPad for iOS 9.3 and I find it very frustrating with getting this done. What still confuses me are all different as offers new services Apple where they say that you must have subscriptions to additional services in order to accomplish real music sharing sounds more like we're going to pay you for content you already bought by various means, regardless of if it was bought through iTunes, which in fact automatically available on all devices or using your own physical CD that you have owned it during the years that made you buy it or pay additional fees for the things you already paid which is like paying for things several times that don't sit well with me.

  THUS in short can someone please point me in the direction of tutorials and how also to start a discussion with other members of the community, so I can eventually become an expert on this subject? Thanks for all your help and assistance, it is appreciated.

  Sincerely,

  Wonder Woman

  Home sharing is the specialty of iTunes rather than have one of his own. Pretty embarrassing, that gives the impression that I might be a local expert on the subject, when in fact I've never really used, or at least not to a computer.

  Start with your iPad, what is your library and what is the iPad in the UK? If your library can fit on the iPad, then it should be relatively easy to add to all of this. If it fits in the same time, it should be possible to make the smart playlists that maintain a useful subset on the device with an automatic turnover. If you want to continue to demand access to all your music on an iPad or a computer that is not enough big to hold all at once and then iTunes game you may.

  You started the conversation if you have taken the first steps.
