iTunes Library on this Mac Audio GB GB vs

Hello

My iTunes says I have 73 GB of music, when I go to 'about this Mac' and look at the storage it says I have 127,16 GB of audio on my MacBook Pro (early 2011).

Any thoughts on why there is such a difference.

Use the Finder to search on your Mac.  Looks like you have a lot of audio files that are not in your iTunes library.

  • Home of the iTunes sharing works on Mac, not on iOS

    Hello

    I'm trying to use home sharing to play music from the iTunes library on my Mac on my iOS devices, but it does not work. The devices that I use are a Mac Mini Sierra, who has my iTunes library, a 5 c with iOS 10.0.2, iPhone an iPad 2 running iOS 9.3.5 and a MacBook Pro 2011 Sierra running. I have iTunes running on the Mac Mini, with home sharing enabled. The MacBook Pro, I can see and play the shared library. I am connected to the same on all devices iCloud account, and I am connected to home sharing within the parameters of the music on the two devices with the same account. All devices are connected to the same WIFI network to a router TP-Link Archer C7. On the iPhone with iOS 10, home sharing must be one of my options when you click the library, but it is not. On the iPad with iOS 9.3.5, home sharing should appear in the dropdown at the top of the screen my music, but it does not appear. I tried to turn home sharing and turn it back on to the host computer, turning home sharing and turn it back on client devices, restart the host computer and restart client iOS devices. In addition, I tried this on a 4th generation iPod Touch (does not work) and MacBook Air my wife (works). Why is it not this work for my iOS devices?

    I thought about it. In addition to activating iTunes home sharing preferences on the host computer, you must also go to file > home sharing > turn on home sharing and enter your iTunes account information. I doesn't make sense to me that you would have to enable home sharing on two different places to do work with different types of devices, and there is no explanation for this data in the documentation I've seen.

  • Should I wait until iTunes game done on Mac before turning on my iPhone?

    Should I wait until iTunes game is made download and correspondent of iTunes on Mac before attempting to turn on iCloud music library on my iPhone?

    I had a horrible experience and cancelled my subscription Match because it made my iPhone go crazy and brought me to wipe and treat Apple (legal dept) customer relations in order to compensate me financially for the bug that downloads songs on cell when it is not supposed to and draining my battery in a few hours and cause invites every 10 seconds (without exaggeration).

    I was wondering if I should wait 2 weeks first for my collection has been completely downloaded first. It would be too iOS 9. In any case...

    Hello

    Yes. Once match / download process is complete, you can then activate the game on your phone but there is no need to wait two weeks. I suggest that you add the iCloud status column to song in your iTunes library. This will tell you which corresponded, downloaded, purchased, ineligible, duplicate or pending.

  • About this mac shows twice as much audio I have in iTunes

    I get errors that my boot drive is almost full on my macbook air relatively new (~ 4 months). When I went to study, I found that about this mac storage tab showed 42,96 audio GB 36,33 GB of apps, 33,42 GB else and insignificant small photos, movies, and backups.

    I'm not sure about 'the other', but the Apps and the Audio seem that they shouldn't take much more space. I'm not sure of what should be automatically installed programs on this macbook, but I downloaded additional applications less than 5, so I don't know if it should take 1/4 of my disk space. In addition, I wouldn't have too much audio that is not music, and when I go into iTunes it says I have about 19 GB of music.

    Can someone tell me what is the source of this problem? I don't know that I should not have problems of storage on a machine this new.

  • I want to move my itunes library from my old PC to my new Mac, but the files on the PC in the old file structure.  How can I do this?

    I'm afraid that if I followed the instructions here (How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support), it will mess up things on my Mac that the file structure is totally different.  Is there a way to first convert the structure of the files on the PC to match the structure of files on Mac?  I've updated the version of iTunes on the PC for 12.1.3 (who he says is the most recent).  I tried following the instructions here: iTunes: understanding iTunes Media organization - Apple support but it is not an "Upgrade to iTunes Media organization" option when I go to the library to organize on the PC.  All advice is appreciated.

    This document is a bit outdated. File > library > organize library > reorganize files does the same thing as the the old upgrade to iTunes Media organization. For more information on preparing your library for the move, see make a library of portable split .

  • Download my iTunes library to a new Mac

    Hello

    I bought a new MacBook and want to download my entire iTunes library so that I can use it offline (in flight, etc.). Is it possible to do this without having to individually click each album, one by one?

    Thank you

    Is it possible to do this without having to individually click each album, one by one?

    So, it looks like you have a music to iCloud library, a subscription to Match iTunes or Apple music (or both).  Is this correct?

    If so, you can download a large selection of songs at the same time (instead of one by one).  Show your library iTunes music with the view of songs , so that you see a simple list with columns.  If you do not see the column download iCloud , make visible (right click on the header row in the list of songs to show/hide columns).  The column download iCloud is narrow, with a cloud symbol in its title.  The songs that are not currently stored on the local storage of your Mac have a symbol of the cloud with the arrow pointing down , which you can click to download this song.

    BUT, instead of clicking on the cloud next to each song, sort the list of songs by the iCloud download column (click on the header of the column download iCloud ).  All the songs with the symbol of the cloud are displayed together.  To select all at once, click the first song with cloud(), press on and hold the SHIFT key and click the last song with cloud.  Clicked both songs and all the songs in the meantime are selected at the same time.  Right-click on the selection and download.

  • IPod Classic (and iTunes library) from Windows to Mac

    Hey ppl, can someone help me with this one?
    My iPod Classic was initially connected to a PC, because I didn't have a Mac at the time. But I an and for a long time, and now I'm about to get a second.
    I was put in place with the PC mostly because my iTunes library has nearly 500 stored cd and I use my iMac only for work, I didn't want to fill his 500 GB drive with iTunes library. But now that I'm about to take my work to a new Mac, I thought that it was time to move my iTunes library to Mac, and I did it with the help of an external hard drive.

    Now, everything is ok with iTunes on Mac all the CDs and the works of art and library moved nicely.

    But when I connected the iPod it syncs ok, but does not receive a new cd that I just uploaded on the Mac.

    I have noticed that an already existing CD which I modified the work on the Mac, sync ok for the iPod, but not the new CD. The CD is an original, not a copy.
    I think it has to do with the iPod having been registered to another computer. I allow them the Mac, but still the CD is not transferred to the iPod.
    I want to get rid of my PC, but I need the iPod to work with the Mac.
    Can someone tell me what I'm missing, or doing wrong?
    Thank you

    I had checked the discussions over and over again before posting the question and do not find an answer, and now after posting the question, I found what solved my problem - iPod sync fine with the Mac. (to goodbye PC)

    "Kenichi Watanabe 26 February 2016 06:04 Re: Ipod connects to itunes, but does not synchronize "
    in reply to Umphreys21

    OK, that's fine.  So, just what is currently on the iPod is already in your new library iTunes, correct?

    When you start with a new iTunes library and add your existing content, the iPod sees it as a new iTunes library, not the old one that was previously used to synchronize the iPod.  The partners from iPod to your new iTunes library and the Tower WE Auto Sync, follow these steps...

    Select the iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to display the parameters of the iPod in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  Settings of music from the iPod screen is shown at right.

    NOTE: All iPod songs that are not in your iTunes library will be lost.

    Check the box to Sync music.  This turns ON Auto Sync (and associate the iPod to your new iTunes library).  If your library complete iTunes music can fit on iPod, choose the option to synchronize the entire music library.  Click apply.

    On a separate note, since you started with a new iTunes library, you have added all your content to your backup, but you probably do not have the additional data (such as playlists, ratings, play head, date added, etc.).  Depending on how you have saved your iTunes data, it may be possible to restore your full (not only your media) iTunes library.  You need to be good with the help of your new iTunes library, but if you want more information, thanks for posting back. »

    So thanks Kenichi Watanabe

  • iTunes library on NAS shared with every Mac.

    Okey, so I saw a lot of info on iTunes on a NAS share and I have read tons and tons of messages without a complete solution.

    So that's what I have today;

    1 Macbook Pro 15 "

    2 Macbook Pro 13 "

    1 mini Mac (connected to my Samsung TV and the stereo downstairs)

    1 NAS Synology 216 readers to play with 2x3GB

    Remote-app on my iOS devices so that I can change the music on the stereo without a computer

    Everything is connected to the same WiFi of course

    I want to spend my whole library iTunes into ONE on the NAS and then I want to

    (1) in order to access all the music on all computers

    2 (a) be able to add more music

    (b) sometimes I need to change the title of a song/album details may change the genre or add words etc.

    iTunes on the NAS server is to create.

    I compiled all the music in a library on the Macbook pro 15 "and used the following settings in iTunes under Advanced

    -Keep iTunes Media folder organized

    -Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library

    -Sharing iTUnes library XML with other applications

    Also changed genres and all about the songs/albums to make everything as I want

    Moved the folder iTunes with everything on the NAS in music/iTunes

    And hold the ALT key when starting iTunes and then I choose the music/iTunes and then it took a few minutes and asked if he should copy all files

    so I said yes here.

    Now, it seems that I can share all the music on the NAS, but I can't

    1) click a song and change its genres, etc album name when I add the new music

    QUESTIONS

    So is it possible that I missed something, so why can't I just edit?

    Should I hold the ALT key and the library directly in NAS server folder and let them copy all files on the Mac Mini and the 2 13 "Macbook Pro is as well?

    Anyone who has this problem?

  • How to import itunes library and sides of itunes on the pc to new mac

    Hello

    Need help because I have recently taken the plunge and moved from PC to a Mac. I have can´t work is how to import my itunes library and the overall rating. in my opinion, it should be a simple thing but so far, all my efforts and solutions online did not work.

    I tried the data migration. This has created a new user. I thought that I could transfer the files in the set (all CD), but when I click on a song in the new user, it couldn t find the file. FYI I had consolidated the library itunes beforehand.

    I also tried to use an external HD drive. Same result even if I managed to put all my music on. I figured out how to export my rankings. Charge of their place and it worked until I clicked on a song and it couldn t find a file.

    This really should be simple so all advice very welcome.

    Thank you

    See make a library of portable split. A portable library can be moved from one platform to the other while keeping the ratings, playlists, etc. You can move the data over a network, or use an external drive. If you are using an external drive, so that you may need to copy the library twice larger Windows disks are NTFS format that OS X can read natively, but not will not write. And iTunes must be on a recordable disc.

  • the itunes library could not be saved you have enough greenest access for this operation

    I get the following message when I upload music when I am in itunes. the itunes library could not be saved. You have enough greenest access for this operation

    Hi WesleyJefferson,

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

    Method 1: These messages occur if the permissions are incorrect on your designated music folder or a folder in your designated music folder. The permissions are settings that determine who can read, write, or execute a file or a folder on your computer. Each file and folder on your hard drive has an associated permission set.

    Example: If the permissions are correct on your music folder, but incorrect on the U2 folder inside your music folder, you would be able to add other music to your iTunes library, but not this new U2 album.

    To apply permissions to a file or folder, see the article mentioned below:

    How to set, view, change, or remove special permissions for files and folders in Windows XP

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308419

    Method 2: You can also read the article and check.

  • iTunes library to external hard drive works on pc and mac

    Hello world

    I have 1 pc and mac 2. I also use the music library to icloud. However, it depends on the internet connection.

    so, I was wondering if I can put the "itunes library" file on each laptop, the "itunes media" while on the external hard drive?

    My idea is to use an external hard drive whenever I want to use the laptop. so I don't need to broadcast through library icloud music. Moreover, I need an external hard drive and itunes library to work on pc and mac.

    Cheers!

    See make a library of portable split. You will need either a for OS X NTFS driver or driver for HFS + for Windows in order to use the drive with an operating system. Also note that there is a delay when you first launch after passage of one BONE to the other.
