On my work PC, I can play music stored on my Macbook at home

My son gave me a large USB hard drive on which he had copied all my CDs we have connected the HD to an old Mac laptop, we had at home and all those titles (titles only, file copy off) imported into my ITunes library, using my AppleID.

I thought it would be like a "music personal cloud Server" who would have access no matter where I was, at work or on the road.  But on my Windows PC at work, when I open the Windows of ITunes version and log with my AppleID, I don't see my music anywhere.  There is nothing in the recently added or recently played.

Is there a 'cloud' special feature that must be enabled in ITunes on the iBook?  Or do we use older equipment with older versions of the operating system? Or am I simply mistaken and operating under a misconception, that ITunes will allow me to create a personal music server for playing music on my CD imported into ITunes?

The last of them, you are wrong in how you think things are working.

If you want to have access to your music CD, while at work, you will need to subscribe to iTunes game or AppleMusic, so a copy of the articles on your drive home are transferred to iCloud. Logging in to your iTunes Store account, as you do now will show purchases you made on the iTunes Store, of which a copy is nominally kept permanently in iCloud for re - download.

Note that by using any of the subscription services may alter how your library because iCloud now becomes the center of your storage media, in particular with regard to all mobile devices that you own. People also the misadventures of report (of maybe their fault, maybe Apple) and lost points. I'll make sure you always have a solid backup or two before using any of the services.

  • Apple Watch can play music through its built-in speaker?

    I do a decent amount of race and the latter I ran with my phone and just play music on the built-in speaker. It's nice to not have to helmet bouncing around and it feels safer because you can hear the traffic and so on.

    When first announced, I was under the impression, given that a built-in speakerphone, you'd be able to play the music stored on the watch through said pregnant. I haven't seen all the posts about this and now think that it is false.

    So that you can?

    Obviously, the quality and the volume would be questionable, but still, I feel that it would be nice to have the option. Thank you!

    Hello

    It is not possible to play music from the playlist synchronized via the loudspeaker on Apple Watch.

    On the contrary, your watch can be coupled with a Bluetooth headset to listen to music when you run.

    Disabled the firewall, but no difference.

    Ran sfc/scannow - no problem.

  • How a Web site can play music/songs on a computer on which media player is blocked according to security policies?

    I've seen Web sites playing songs on computers have media player and other music running players or play songs based on security policies. Someone can explain how Web sites work around this security and play the songs?

    Hi PRDua,

    You can check whether Windows media player plugin is enabled in Internet Explorer Manage Add ons. If this isn't the case, activate the same manage add ons and check if it helps.

    For more information, you can consult the following articles:

  • Can't play music on the AirPort Express to the iPhone 5 s.  Can of Macbook Pro

    Can play music through the AirPort Express using a Macbook Pro and Linksys 11879. Two iPhone 5 see the connection at the airport, but no music. How do we get music using the iPhones?

    Given that your MacBook Pro can broadcast to the Express, we know that AirPlay works.

    By 'See the connection at the airport' do you mean that the two iPhones can see that both the AirPlay icon in the control center AND can see the Express in its options?

  • iPhone 7 - load & play music

    With the new iPhone 7 announced without the classic headphone jack, I'm confused about how the iPhone 7 will work when load and play music.

    I currently does not have a bluetooth car radio - I need to plug the power cord to the classics to play music in my car. My phone is not always 100% when I get out of the House/work order...

    HOW CAN I LOAD THE NEW IPHONE 7 AND PLAY MUSIC AT THE SAME TIME WITH ONLY A LIGHTNING PORT?

    Is there some sort of adapter/splitter?

    It may be make or break for me...

    I found this with a search very fast. I don't know if that answers your question though.

    http://Gizmodo.com/the-iPhone-7-is-here-everything-you-need-to-know-1786260590

    Schiller made sure that we knew that there are over 900 million devices connected to the lightning to companies such as JBL. But what happens if I wanted to use my headset on, say, an iPhone 7. Fortunately, Apple will be including an adapter for audio jack in each case for the iPhone 7. Get ready to lose!

  • Play music with Zire 72

    Anyone know how I can play music with my Zire 72 without having to sit on it to prevent it from turning automatically after 3 minutes?  I wish there was a way to disable the automatic stop device or extend at least to the point of the session you want to listen to music. I know that it protects all and all that, but it can autoshutoff when the battery is discharged to a certain percentage. I went to use it today while my dentist did a prank, but it only lasted 2 minutes because it is somehow got changed to setting.  Help!

    I worked and worked to understand how I could keep the thing from closing. My husband had a response to a search in google of setting of the autoshutoff to a high in suggestions but the higher number, you can go in zire 72 only goes to 3 minutes, so I thought what would happen if I went to but did not close the Preferences window and it worked. My zire 72 plays for more than half an hour now because I implemented in this way. I hope this helps others.

  • Siri does not work. It can respond to me when I say hello or ask a definition or calculation, but nothing like that to open applications or play some things from Apple's music.

    Hello. I have an iPhone on iOS 9.2 and siri 6 did not work. I can do things as said in the title, but could not open all the apps or do something with apple's music. The message that I get when asking to 'Open the Messages app' is 'you can't see an application called 'messages'. We could see if the app store has it. "For music from Apple, when I ask 'Play my mixed songs', it says"Sorry, I'm unable to play your music." Before you answer, it takes a while to load, if that helps somehow. If someone knows how to fix this or help, please comment. Thank you.

    I also have similar problems. I bought my iPhone 6 s more in January, and the software is up-to-date. Siri seems to understand me very well, but can't seem to perform the tasks. I get messages like: "it does not appear that you have an app called music", "uh oh there's a problem you can try again? ',"Sorry, I can't play your music"and many more responses means having a hard time to do anything. I tried to reset my settings and at this point, I'm about to wipe the phone and try again see if that makes a difference. It's been less than a month I've had this phone... I'm tempted to send it back.

  • HP Elitebook 8730w: Eject CD (context menu) doesn't work does not and can not play music CD

    Hello

    After the upgrade to Windows 10 (starting from Windows 7) my CD drive (HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T50L) does not work properly. I can play the audio files located on the hard disk or over the internet, but I can't play a music CD. Eject the DVD from the context menu fails ("" an error occurred..; ' ").

    The content of the Cd is visible in the file Explorer. I can open and close the CD door manually.

    I get no error in Device Manager ("this device is working properly"). Uninstalling the driver SNA by restarting the computer does not change anathing. The computer indicates that the driver is up-to-date.

    The upgrade to 32-bit Windows 10 has been without any problems.

    Any idea?

    Thank you. LeoEG.

    Finally, the Windows troubleshooting tool solved the problem. It installed a generic audio driver. Thanks for your effort. LeoEG

  • Firefox does not display my photo site properly, or play music from it on my new computer. I have 2 other PC and it works very well on those.

    Just set up a new PC and downloaded Firefox. It will not display correctly my Zenfolio Photo site or it will play music that accompanies the slideshow on the home page. I have 2 other PC and it works very well on them. All are Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Yes. He uses Flash to show the images and music. Go to tools-> Add-ons and check the Plugins. Make sure that Shockwave Flash 16.0.0.305 is not set to never turn on. I keep me always activate.

    If you do not see flash, can get Adobe Flash here: https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html and the EEG for the Plugin-based browsers.

    If flash is installed, then it sounds like something is blocking.
