iTunes 10 won't show me my songs.

I just bought a new macbook today and I'm having the EXACT same problem. I'm really angry. What's happening? Somebody from Apple, please explain what's happening?

i tried for over a week and never found a solution. i gave up. in addition to this problem, i realized that i could not import movies into iMovie or photos into iPhoto. i ended up not using Migration Assistant and instead starting with a clean install and installing all my software over. i moved my non-system/Library files over but only brought over my browser/Mail settings. otherwise i pretty much started from scratch. Migration Assistant was USELESS. very, VERY frustrating. i'd say worst new Mac experience I've had in 17 years.

Hey Im having the same problem, no music, no movies, no TV shows, no apps, no nothing.
I've tried EVERYTHING
from simply trying to copy music over,
to deleting and reinstalling iTunes several times.
to a 100% 7-pass drive clean, erasing EVERYTHING, then reinstalling Snow Leopard and Restoring from Time Machine
im going to try wiping everything clean and then without completely restore using a back up just simply drag and drop files hoping to avoid what ever is corrupt.

PROBLEM SOLVED BY NEW UPDATE
Click apple
then Software Update...
Download new updates
then restart your computer, let them install
Music is back!

MAKE SURE YOU ARE UPDATED TO
Mac OS X (10.6.4)!!!
worked for me!

Update fixed it!!! Wow!

I am having this problem after upgrading to iTunes10 after 10.6.4 was installed. The only things I can see are Ping, iTunes store and my iPad device details. I can't see any of my library.

I have tried everything from completely reinstalling itunes, to downgrading to itunes9 (same problem there too, just with more crashing) to clearing out all traces of libraries, plists and receipts. I really don't understand how to fix this without redoing my entire OS.

Can anyone at Apple shed some light on this?

Much appreciated.

wish the update worked for me...

Have you tried the Combo Updater? Sometimes they work better than Software Update.

I tried installing the 10.6.4 combo update over an already up-to-date 10.6.4 and still no luck.

Am I stuck until 10.6.5, if even that?

There has to be a solution out there. Anything Apple?

I got it working... Downloaded iTunes 10.1 - (beta10) that was floating around out there and it fixed me right up. So I guess anyone that is running iTunes 10.0.1 on SL 10.6.4 and still can't see your library, go looking for the beta.

I have tried everything listed here short of reformatting my hard-drive and fresh installing OSX 10.6.4 and also haven't tried install the beta of itunes. I am experiencing the exact same problem that everyone else seems to be having, I can not see any of my music in the music list or any playlist, however, I can still play my music by using the play and next and previous track buttons. When I try to open certain things like the itunes store, itunes crashes. Please fix this Apple, ***...

Installed Itunes 10.1 (beta10) and problem is now solved. Thanks for the suggestion.

I decided not to erase and reinstall my OS as the Genius bar at my local Apple Store suggested. Recent OS and iTunes updates have solved the problem with my content not showing up, I see everything now. But iTunes still crashes all the time when I switch views in my Music and TV shows. I think if I hold out for enough updates they'll address the problem. I don't use iTunes that much. The iPhoto problems are another story.
