ITunes 10.5.2 will not let me add files to my iTunes library. What do I do?

Hello,
Ever since I downloaded iTunes 10.5.2, I have been unable to add music files to my iTunes library. Whenever I am browsing for the file and double-click it, I am immediately given the "This program has stopped working... Trying to find a solution to this problem." box.
Any help is appreciated.

Of course not. Reinstall and if the Libraries are in the standard location in your computer (i.e. iTunes placed them and not you), it will immediately find the libraries. Just don't throw away the libraries. You can reinstall over the existing iTunes. BTW never forget to backup your computer.

  • I have the iPhone 4. I recently switched from PC to IMac. I am trying to sync my iPhone, but iTunes will not let me add or remove anything. Do I need to change a setting since I changed computers? Help!

    I have the iPhone 4. I recently switched from PC to IMac. I am trying to sync my iPhone, but iTunes will not let me add or remove anything. Do I need to change a setting since I changed computers? I try to add songs from my music into my phone section and it will not go... Plus the playlists on my phone are not updated on my iTunes phone on my computer. Its like it never updated. What am I doing wrong??

    Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.
    When you sync to another it will delete the current content.
    Make sure you have copied everything from your old computer to your new one first.

  • I want to add new songs to my ipod.  When I set it up with itunes years ago I had a different computer that I no longer have.  Now it will not let me add new songs to my ipod shuffle without erasing everything that is already on it.  Help!!!

    Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me.  Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

  • Is there any way that I can put the 600 songs that are stored on my old PC onto my new PC?  My iPod has the 600 songs on it but my iTunes will not let me add the songs onto the iTunes on the new computer.

    Yes.
    You should have copied everything from the old computer to the new one.

  • 10.5 will not let me add album name. itunes stops working and shuts down

    10.5 will not let me add album name. itunes stops working and shuts down.

    I am having this problem.  At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2.  I am not sure why this is happening. 
    My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
    The problem mainly occurs with apps.  I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them.  The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
    Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage.  It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup.  With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up.  The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
    My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete.  This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
    I have been wondering if others have had these same problems.

    Thanks for the information and your help. I have never bothered before changing the format. Next time I will.
    I copied the library to the external drive and then it went and said they were referenced files but I was okay about that. Now it cannot see them and will not do anything with them. I think I will buy another external drive and start again by importing all of my files again. I guess 55K will keep the mac busy this week.

  • Why won't premiere pro cc will not let me add an adjustment layer

    why won't premiere pro cc will not let me add an adjustment layer

    Glad that you got the adjustment layer issue worked out. Not quite enough info to troubleshoot the other problems. The following page outlines the kind of info that helps zero in on the cause of such problems: FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?
    As to the cache files and rendered previews, you do not need to keep them. Premiere will regenerate them as needed. Because re-conforming the audio and re-rendering the sequence takes time, you probably want to keep those files around for the current project--unless, of course, you have reason to think that the cache or render files are causing problems.
    To keep things clean and get the attention of more people, it would probably be best to start a new thread for the other issues.

  • IPhone will not let me add music

    My iPhone will not me add any music to it. It will not let me sync music to it, or drag music to it. I've tried clicking the box to manually manage music and that has not worked, neither has hitting the sync button. When I try to drag music from my Library the red circle with a line through comes up. When I try to sync, it just won't do it. 

    Then I guess I would recommend you try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components as outlined here: Windows XP, Windows Vista/7, and then reinstall the latest version of iTunes.  You must follow this guide, uninstalling all of the components and in the correct order, or it will not be successful.  Also, uninstalling iTunes only removes the application; it won't touch your iTunes library or data.

  • Will not let me delete file folder

    I have duplicate file folders. If I try to delete the folder it will not let me or if I can delete the folder it comes back.

    Mr. Victor,
    I am not very tech savy but I believe I am using POP not IMAP. I can delete all other folders except the file folders that have a duplicate file. Duplicate file folder is not created by me, in fact if I try to make a duplicate file folder that already exists, Thunderbird will tell me that file already exists; change name.
    Concerning the duplicate file folders (all are empty) I have three problems:
    While in Thunderbird it will let me delete one of the file folders but I have to empty trash bin before I can delete the second file folder, however, when I turn my computer on the next time and go to Thunderbird the files folders are back.
    When I click on properties of the duplicate file folders, one of the duplicate files has a default character Encoding of "Arabic ISO 8859-6" I have tried to change it to the "Western (ISO-8859-1)" which is what all the other file folders show but it does not help in resolving the problem.
    Also when I open the properties option on the file folder, it gives an option to repair file folder which does nothing when clicked on.
    I am concerned that there is some short of virus or other problem but McAfee scan shows no problems.

  • HT2731 I am trying to set up an IPad with an Apple account already in use but it will not let me put it on this Ipad.  What do I need to do?

    I am trying to set up an IPad with an Apple account already in use but it will not let me do so. What do I ned to do so i can have Apple ID on Ipad and other items?

    Hi,
    Yes you can contact Apple UK at daytime, for free, in the Chat.
    Just go to the iPad page, then press buy now in the upper right corner, and then in the upper right corner you will see the phone number, and next to it,(only at daytime) you will see a button, writing something like contact else, I don't really know what is the exact label, but it works.
    Good luck

  • Firefox 3.6.9. will not let me add any new bookmarks, even after uninstalling and reinstalling. I would like to be able to bookmark new pages, please help.

    Regardless of whether I try bookmarking using ⌘D or the star on the right of the address bar or using the drop down Bookmarks tab, Firefox will not bookmark the page. It doesn't matter what page I am trying to bookmark, I can't bookmark any of them. And when I tried importing my bookmarks from Google Chrome, it imported the folder names but not the contents.

  • Is it possible to make multiple playlists and set itunes so that it will not let you add a song to more than one playlist?

    I have a veryl large Itune library and want to make multiple playlists so that for example when driving long hours in the car I can change to another playlist and not have songs repeated.  I do realize if I noted down every song that was put in a playlist I would be able to accomplish this but it would be nice if there was some setting that I am unaware of that would keep track of this for me.  Any suggestions?

    To Clearify  for example I am wondering if their is a setting so that Itunes won't let me add a song to playlist A if it is alread on playlist B.  Any Suggestions?
