1st track skips when importing cd

My itune just recently had this problem. The 1st track of any cd I import doesnt show up in the itune's library. Anyone have the same problem or solution?

Thanks for your suggestion. I don't think the format is the problem. The other tracks on the cd imported perfectly, only the first song of the cd did not show up in the library.
After re-importing again, the 1st track appeared. I had to re-import over 10 cds so far. Seems problem is very recent like it just happened this week.

  • Bug in Track Naming when importing folder?

    Hey All-
    Hopefully this is an easy problem to fix! I just imported my entire mp3 collection which on my HD labeled like this:
    D:\mp3\Artist - Album\01 - Track Name.mp3
    ... and so forth. I have spent alot of time making sure all my tags are correct; each mp3 has ID3v1 and ID3v2 Tags which are synchronized.
    When I import this folder; D:\mp3 into iTunes it correctly displays the Artist and Album information, but it screws up the Track Name. Instead of showing the Track Name only in the browser view, it shows:
    Artist - Track Name
    Interestingly enough, when I play a file, the iTunes then recognizes the Track Name properly and resets the view to the proper Trackname only.
    Here is a picture which accurately shows the problem:

    If I then sync this entire library to my iPod, the track names have this same layout; Artist - Trackname.
    Obviously I can't go through 5000 or so songs and play them all until they are displayed properly... is there anything else I can do?
    Thanks!

    is there anything else I can do?
    Hi Erik,
    yes the best thing would be make a copy of your post and paste it in the windows forum ... by the way welcome to the Apple Discussions as you are not running a MAC your question would be best served in the special
    iTunes for windows forum. Click here
    sounds like you need to 'add to library' all your songs... check it out in the other forum Erik gets confusing otherwise ... good luck ... TP

  • Edited Stills skip when imported as sequence

    Hi - I've exported stills from QT and then done some retouching on them in Photoshop. They are then saved as JPEG. When I import these sequences back into QT, there are skips or stutters in the playback. The file names are the same as other sequences that import and play correctly, so it is not a naming issue. If I scrub through the imported sequence, everything seems correct and I cannot detect repeats or gaps in the imported stills. I've tried different frame rates, no change.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    TIA.

    Anyone???

  • When trying to import bought CD's (10yr old) to ITunes, it recognizes the album and the tracks, but when importing I get the error message '  Error occurred while converting 'songname' file. The required disk cannot be found

    Seems also that the majority of CD's that have these problems are Warner Music published (I have roughly 20 that display the same problem)

    Windows and iTunes 10.
    Had this problem "Error importing file .... songname .... iTunes cannot locate the required file" when trying to import a CD today. 
    My library is on an external USB hard drive.  iTunes from time to time not only loses its own library file, but also confuses windows into thinking that the library files do not exist.
    So the fix where you re-tell iTunes where to find its own media file (using the preferences menu hidden behind some opaque icon for reasons that pass rational understanding) fails, and when you try to find the file using windows explorer, windows possibly confused by apple "helper" files, or possibly lost in a delusion of its own, also thinks there are no files in the music directory.  This despite usage stats on the disk still clearly showing that a lot of space is being used up by files that "aren't there".
    The fix for this windows user is close everything down.  Reboot, restart iTunes and presto it as if iTunes's / Window's temporary amnesia never happened.
    Last time I "lost" the library was when I did the "upgrade" to iTunes 10. I wrongly put this down to a pathetic upgrade utility. I now realise that iTunes/Windows just loses this key element of the plot from time to time, screwing up windows when it does so.
    Astonished how flaky this widely used and let's face it hardly brand new software combination is. 
    Now I don't know if this spectacularly unhelpful performance is Apple's fault or Microsoft's or both, so I'm not going to bother apportioning my contempt.  Shame on both your houses for needless worry that I'd have to re-rate and re-sort everything from a virgin set of file back ups yet again.

  • Why does my video skip when importing into iMovie?

    I'm using a Canon HD video camcorder (HV20) to import my home videos into iMovie.  After starting the import, the video being recorded in iMovie often "skips" (flickers on the computer screen / sound is also affected) yet the video playing on the camcorder plays without any issues.  Can someone help?

    You would get better results if you convert the MP4 ciips into Apple Intermediate Codec before editing. After editing you can render them back into MP4 if you want.
    MPEG Streamclip (free) will do this conversion. Or get iMovie 09 and it will do it.

  • No track names when importing or macbook rejects cd

    I just bought a new MacBook and I recently attempted to import some cds, but my computer shoots back out many of my cds. If this does not happen, on every single cd (not all are burned disks) none of the track names, artist, album, etc. appear. This did not happen to me on my pc which ran with windows. Please please help asap. I'd like to get all of my cds imported before I leave for college.

  • When importing tracks from a CD to iTunes, only 10 of the 13 songs are imported or shown on the list. How can I import the missing three?

    When importing tracks from a CD to ITunes, only 10 of the 13 songs are imported. How can I display and import the missing three? Thanks.

    It depends on eaxactly what is wrong with the old laptop. If you're lucky the drive can be extracted and connected to a new computer to extract the data. Otherwise see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Tracks 5, 6, and 7 from Playlist skip When Burned to a CD

    Does anyone know why tracks 5,6, and 7 skip when i burn a cd. Every other song works fine. I've tried the CD's on other players and it has the same issue. i think it's either my computer or iTunes but i think it's iTunes cause ive burned other music cds with other programs and they worked fine.... so let me know what you guys think.. Thanks.
      Windows XP Pro  

    Have you burned a variety of playlists and tracks 5, 6 & 7 always skip, or is it just one particular playlist with specific tracks 5, 6, & 7?
    If it's just one list--listen to the tracks to make sure they're not corrupted. If they don't play correctly on your computer either, then they need to be re-ripped into iTunes to fix the problem. Check out the original music source too to make sure it's problem free.
    Have you tried using a completely different brand of CD-R disks? Maybe the skipping brand has a flaw at the point on the disk where tracks 5, 6, & 7 are burnt?
    You could try burning the disk at a slower speed to make sure that's not the problem.
    If none of these are your problem, let me know and I'll try to think of other things you can check.

  • Help! 1st track from ripped CD's to iTunes, has a skip about 23 sec in?

    I hope somebody can help me with this. I am ripping all my CD's using Apple Losless. Around 23-30 sec into the song, you hear the digital skip. It only seems to be on the 1st track of the CD. I have already gone into preferences and made sure that error correction is on. Burning at different speeds does not seem to make a difference either. Please Help.

    Have you tried ripping it to MP3 instead?

  • How can I 'join' audio tracks when importing audio book?

    HELP!!
    In the latest version of iTunes, 11.0.1, I can't find the 'JOIN Tracks' button which is needed when importing an audio CD to keep each disc treated as one book instead of storing each chapter as a separte entry.  Without this, I can't find a way to keep the chapters to play in proper order as each CD, starts with chapter 01. 
    Thank you for your help

    Join CD tracks
    When you import songs from a CD into iTunes, you can group songs so they always play together (even when you’re shuffling songs).
    Insert an audio CD into your computer’s CD or DVD drive, and click No in the window that appears.
    When the songs on the CD appear in the iTunes window, hold down the Shift key to select the ones you want to join.
    Click near the top-right of the iTunes window, and choose Join CD Tracks.

  • Locating audio tracks when Importing OMF

    I have just imported an OMF from another Logic session. All my audio tracks are in the media folder and all the audio regions are in the session page in their correct places.
    But the audio isn't synced up to the regions, is there any way of not doing it manually as I have over 2000 files.
    Or is there something I can do when importing the OMF's to make sure this doesn't happen.
    I just started a new session straight from the OMF when this happened.
    I am now importing the OMF from an open session.
    Any advice greatly appreciated

    This has been posted by others in the past, there seems to be changes in FCP 5 and/or QuickTime that make its media not fully-readable by earlier revs of FCP.
    I would recapture in FCP 3.

  • If I import audio books into the music section of itunes it lists the books as albums and all the chapters as tracks fine when I sync them to my ipod classic, but not if I import them as audiobooks, any ideas please?

    If I import audio books into the music section of itunes it lists the books as albums and all the chapters as tracks fine when I sync them to my ipod classic, but not if I import them as audiobooks and then sync them, any ideas please?

    If you import the audiobook as an audiobook to your iTunes Library, it will be listed in the Books section of your Library. You may need to turn on Books in order to see them. If you cannot see the File/Edit... etc. menu, use CTRL B on your keyboard to make that menu bar appear. Then go to Edit/Preferences>Books and put a tick in the box.
    But, if the imported audiobook shows up in the Music section of your iTunes Library, highglight the files (in iTunes) and select File/Get Info/Options/Media Kind>Audiobook. These files will now transfer to the Books section of iTunes.
    Once on an iPod Classic, look under the Audiobooks menu. Again, you may need to change the settings in the Settings menus, in order to have the Audiobooks option shown on the Main Menu and/or the Music Menu.

  • I want to join the cd tracks when importing my discs into itunes

    I have always joined my tracks when putting audio books into itunes. Then, yesterday I put the first disc of a book in but could not get the option up when I came to add disc 2. I figured it was a faulty disc and tried another book but nothing works.
    Previously I have inserted a disc highlighted all the tracks & then chosen join tracks from the advanced tab. Now everything highlights but the required join tracks option remains stubbornly unavailable. I uninstalled & re-installed itunes but that hasn't made any difference.
    Please can anyione help - I forsee a life of re-naming audio tracks so that the stay together on my ipod!

    The only way iTunes can join tracks is when it is ripping from physical CD. 
    Once the CD is ripped, you can use 3rd party software to join the tracks (i.e. an audio editor), but it may be easier to start over again from the CD.

  • Batch set "Skip when shuffling" option

    I recently discovered that iTunes has a "Skip When Shuffling" checkbox on the options tab of the Get Info window.
    I was going to ask if anyone knew of a way to set that option on multiple tracks at once because I have several hundred I wanted to select it for, but I realized that I could do a quick Google search first...
    And found an Applescript to do this here.
    I didn't come across an answer when searching the forums, so I decided I should post this, just in case anyone else ever wonders if this is possible.
