AppleCare/Troubleshooting
  • "I'll need to keep my iTunes library on an external drive; can I run iTunes and listen to music through iTunes Match even if the library is unavailable? I have two iTunes libraries. One is called iTunes Mobile and the other is just iTunes - these libraries are stored on my local SSD. My iTunes library's 'iTunes Media' library is located on my external drive. When at home, I use my iTunes library, and when I am away from home, I use my iTunes Mobile library - and with iTunes Match, I get to listen to all my music away from home using the mobile library." MacInTouch 9:27 AM
  • "Since iTunes 11, I have several iPods that will briefly mount and then disappear with this error: An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod, then try again. If the problem persists, uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. I've tried reinstalling iTunes. You cannot 'uninstall' it by any method I've tried. I've tried all the ports on the machine, several Apple cables, including new ones, and the problem persists. The iPods mount and sync fine if I pair them with another Mac." MacInTouch 9:28 AM
