New lost all iTunes music

After trying to download el captain, who he said downloaded in the window of the APP Store, but won't allow me to move forward with the installation of the update (still in Yosemite market), I think that the new ITUNES 12.4.1.6.

Next time open iTunes, showed all of my library, but the text is light gray and the songs could not be played.

After a few toys iTunes didn't any of my hundreds of records with the exception of the most recent recording of Bob Dylan that I have recently downloaded onto a cd.

So maybe a quarter music is back, for example, he 6 records BECK, it showed 1.

All the music is always in my internal hard drive.

I checked the Preferences/Advanced/iTunes Media folder and the correct folder is selected.

Anyone can help?

Thank you

Chris

Selecting a folder of media does not affect old media displayed in iTunes. There is no what where iTunes needs to store the new media you add.

  • How to transfer my music from ipod nano to my apple mediathek? Lost all the music on my PC after the failure of the system.

    How to transfer my music from ipod nano to my apple mediathek? All the music was lost after my PC broke down.

    What is "apple mediathek?

    Depending on the context, I'll assume that you are asking how to unload files of songs from an iPod to a computer.  iTunes synchronization is generally in one direction, from iTunes to iPod library. You cannot use iTunes to transfer files of song from iPod to computer (with the exception of songs purchased from the iTunes Store)

    NOTE: Songs purchased from the iTunes Store can be downloaded again free of charge, on the iTunes Store purchased screen.

    Download your purchases past - Apple Support

    However, there are methods and third party utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like 'ipod music transfer', you should get a few links (including a CNET article on the subject).  Once the files of songs from the iPod to your disk, add them to your current iTunes library.

    Further, you should backup your iTunes data.  Apple describes a way to back up your folder full of iTunes on an external drive.

    Manage and backup your iTunes media library - Apple Support

    This method should also be used when switching from an old computer to a new computer.  By transferring or restore your complete iTunes folder, it's the same iTunes library on the new computer, not a new iTunes library with your old songs.  iPods are not designed to be your data from iTunes backup.

  • Lost all my music after having changed the country

    Hi all

    Im having a problem with my account of Apple's music.

    I had to move from the French to Spanish store so I had to cancel my subscription to Apple's music who, after restarting my membership (on the Spanish shop this time), I realized that all my music has disappeared.

    The music is not on iTunes on my Mac, I tried to resync the iCloud library and everything, no chance.

    This means that it is not possible to keep his music when changing the country?

    Thanks for your help guys

    Anything related to music from Apple is specific to each National Bank and may not be transferred. History of purchases and nothing ripped from CD rest to you. Access your purchase history requires that you register in the right store however so keep a library of physical media is a good initiative.

  • Windows Media Player 11 on XP SP2 has lost all its music library and will not allow him to add again.

    I have the media player 11 and it worked very well.  Yesterday I opened a session and opened it, and there is no music in the library.  Playlists are still there.  I tried to manually add folders to watch. No joy.  When I repeated the procedure for adding, records Analyzer was still empty.  As if I never said what to monitor.

    I followed the advice offered in this forum at staceygumbert and followed a link to:

    http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/fixing-when-windows-media-player-library-wont-let-you-add-files/.

    This notice did not.  Once I deleted the database because it suggests that WMP asks about media sharing.  When I click on the button 'Settings' WMP fails and sends an error report.

    If I connect my wife, everything is OK.  I tried to copy its database through my user profile.  No joy.

    My Roku Soundbridge can't 'see' libraries.  However I think it's to be expected considering not having WMP does not all libraries.

    Software configuration:

  • cleaning iTunes music files on my new PC for Windows 10

    Hello, I've been a customer for many years iTunes and that you have now more than 1500 music files in a variety of folders to iTunes on my PC Windows 10. In fact, the number of unique music files is about 750.  I moved all my mp3 and m4a files unique to a single folder.  I also removed the 01, 02, etc. in front of the file names. I would now like to load only the music files in this folder in iTunes.  I intend to do what follows to do this:

    1. Uninstall iTunes on my PC for Windows 10
    2. Delete all iTunes music files
    3. reinstall iTunes
    4. Use 'Add file to library' pointing to the unique music folder

    Please let me know if it will work.

    Also, I have an IPod Touch and an IPod.  I intend to delete all the music files on each, then resynchronize both after the above and expect that the number of music files on my PC and the IPod Touch will be exactly the same.

    Thanks, if you have any advice or I would need other information, it would be greatly appreciated.

    You don't need to uninstall/reinstall iTunes.  If you delete the folder structure (default location C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes) iTunes library then start iTunes it will create a new library and invite you to scan your PC for the media.  I suggest you answer "" at this prompt.  Make sure that the folder that contains the media you want to add are not in this folder structure.

    Then check the settings in Edit > Preferences > advanced and make sure that they are as follows:

    1. It's the location that iTunes will use when adding new media
    2. This imposes a canonical file and file naming schema, as follows:

      where your media files are systematically named - songname. ( prefix is provided only for the albums of multiple discs.
    3. This ensures that all the media is found in the structure such folders as specified in paragraph 1.

    Now use file > add folder to library... to add cleaned to iTunes support.

    Given that you have created a new iTunes library, existing media on each of your iDevices will be automatically erased and replaced by which it your new/updated library up to date.

    Once everything is done and you have checked the results, create a backup of your iTunes library - see your iTunes backup for Windows with SyncToy library for a method suitable/recommended - and regularly update in.  You can also remove the folders containing media files that you added using iTunes file > add folder to library...

    II. click on organize

    III. Select Options, select the Library tab

    IV. in the title of the newsletters of automatic support for files

    v. Select only adds the missing information

    Method 2:

    Rebuild the media database and check if that helps. Follow these steps to rebuild the database:

    i. Click Start, in the search box, type in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player

    II. remove the Media player folder

    III. to restart the computer, the Media player folder will be automatically recreated. Check whether the problem is resolved.

    1. exit Windows Media Player.

    2. click on start, run, type % LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft, and then click OK.

    3. Select the Media Player folder, and then click on Delete on the file menu.

  • Lost all libraries in Windows Media Player

    I had a very serious fight with a browser hijacker. I had great support from Microsoft to get results in the race, but in the process lost all my music from Windows Media Player libraries. I know that they are still in the computer, somewhere, because they went during the time of repair, but came back twice during the process of return to the somewhat operational. Is it possible to search for music files? I don't know if I should remove the player and download it somewhere (?) or go to another player or what. Some files have been compiled for many years and are not replaceable. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, always keep up to date, have 4 GB of ram and 800 GB of free space on the HARD drive. I use MS Security Essentials with Malwarebytes and Advanced System Care Pro for maintenance. Is it possible to download a new copy of Media Player. I'm starting to ramble, so if anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd be deeply in your debt!

    This seems to be a question of recovery then. No other player will improve the situation, unless the files are accessible. I could cite this entire thread of resettlement, but I think it would be better to mark this as replied and post a new question in the section 'repair and recovery' the Forum... something along the lines of 'Files lost after Browser Hijack' and then briefly detail what happened, what support you have received (and where) and I hope that someone recommends a plan of action to try to recover the lost files.
    I'm sorry that a simpler solution is not an option!

  • Lost all the files of muisc - Itunes library intact but lost hard drive with music files

    Hello

    I'm on windows 10 and the latest version of Itunes. I had a separate hard drive with all my music, which represents 95% of the CD, even some captured directly from vinyl. (iknow all conferences on the backup to the top and sent hard drives for repair, but not luck)

    So my Itunes library is intact, as it was stored on the drive to the OS, but every track has an exclamation point. I tried to use Itunes game and music in an attempt to restore my library, but I suspect I'm going to build it from scratch again, re - burn all my CDs

    Any ideas?

    See recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device. If you subscribe to iTunes Match your should be able to create a new library and download content to it. The old one will assume that the tracks are present, even if they cannot be found. You must avoid doing anything which could remove the reference to the track in iTunes game, that's why I suggest to do a new library.

    New iPhone IS does not work with MAC Mini 10.6.8. Apple support says upgrade your iTunes. Its the wrong color icon. WHAT? iTunes is the last 11.4 for my mac. All my music is on my Mac. Help!

    That is right. The requires iTunes 12.3.3 and in order to get it, you will need to update OS X to El Capitan. That's how Apple has created for better or worse, I'm sorry.

  • My iPod classic is synced to my old pc windows how can I send it to my new apple mac - all my music on iPod is uploaded to this topic via ads and bought on iTunes?

    My iPod classic is currently synced on my old windows pc - how can I send it to my new Apple Mac without losing any of my music.  All my music is downloaded from the ads?

    If you still have your old PC in working condition, with its iTunes library intact, not to use your iPod to transfer the library to your new Mac.  You transfer your data from user (not just your iTunes data) directly from the old PC to the new Mac.

    There is an automated system called Migration Wizard, if your system meets the requirements.  Be sure to have a backup of the data.

    Migration of Windows v1.0.5.7 Assistant

    Alternatively, for the part of iTunes, this paper outlines how do it manually, using an external drive.

    Manage and backup your iTunes media library - Apple Support

    To summarize, the first step is to make sure that all your iTunes data is stored in the iTunes folder ("consolidate"), which is located in your folder music user account.  The second step is to copy this folder iTunes on an external drive, to create a backup.  The third step is to restore that backup the iTunes on your new Mac folder.  Launch iTunes to use data from the old PC iTunes; It looks like iTunes running on your old PC, complete with all the songs (and other types of media) and data, such as reading lists, notes, play count, etc.

    Your iPod continues to synchronize with it, because for the iPod, it's the same iTunes library (on another computer).  If you using your iPod as a data source, you add your old data to an iTunes library on Mac.  It is NOT complete.  The iPod sees it as a different iTunes library.  iPods are not designed to be your data from iTunes backup.

    However, IF the iPod is now the only place where your songs are stored (and you have no other backup), thanks for posting back.

  • My new iPod does not connect to my 2006 iMac G5 - how to download all my music iTunes (mainly CDs) on my iPod. ?

    MY new iPod does not connect to my 2006 G5 iMac. How can I download my iTunes (music mainly from my own CD) library on my new iPod. My iMac works well, but running an ancient operating system that does not seem to be updated capable?

    This is not possible.  I don't know what specific iPod model you have, but any new iPod does not work with a Mac running Mac OS X 10.4.11 (and support older version of iTunes).

    There are more older models iPod work (you can buy used) and many of them, in my opinion, have GREAT sound quality.  To playback audio, new does not mean better.
