After transferring my music to iTunes on a new PC many songs were not transferred. Primarily dj mixes I have made myself. Why?

It appears as if they werent even copied in the back up I made on my external hard drive that I used to transfer my music. Needless to say Apple has made this process painful beyond description. I have spend litteral hours on what would seem to be a simple task. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Your milage may vary, but while downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unchecked. This seems to help with partial downloads...

Why after loading all music into Itunes library does it erase every song on there a few days later?

Your signature line shows you have a Sony. Vaio users worldwide are seeing this.
It's some Sony software conflicting with itunes.

I just bought a new iPod 160GB (my iPod 120GB crashed). After syncing my music from iTunes on the new iPod, the music doesn't nearly as good as on the other iPod

I just bought a new 160GB after my 120GB crashed. After syncing my new iPod with my music in iTunes, I'm noticing the music isn't as clear or bassy as it was on my old iPod. The EQ is off on the new one just as it was on the old iPod so that isn't the issue. Anyone have any ideas why I'm having this problem?

Are you comparing it off earphones, iPod issued earplugs or Hifi Stereo deck?
The new 160GB iPod Classic, have been reported to have poorer audio quality than earlier 5th Gen models. Even using EQ Bass booster make it much worse, but not too sure about your 120GB model,
My thoughts - it was due to the Audio chip replacement, but then your 120GB Audio chip would be about the same as the 160GB 6th Gen, but maybe the firmware 1.1.2 codec handling was better. Your 160GB firmware would be 2.0.4
But some people has full of praise for the new 160GB, saying his music sound 'heavenly',

so it depends on the genre of music you like, but some people are happy by just switching from low to high impedance headphones or vice versa.
Have a nice day!

When I download from iTunes to my new iPod nano, can I select only the one folder I have made for download -- do not want my whole music library to be synched.

Am I able to download only a selected music folder I have created in iTunes to my new iPod nano? I do not want to download my whole music library. Want to know before whole site sync starts up automatically.

What you CAN do is create a playlist in iTunes containing all the content you wish to be synced to your Nano. Then configure your Nano to sync only that one playlist from under the iPod's Music configuration tab in iTunes.

I have a 3GS. The iPod on the phone has made duplicates of some songs. I've tried using the "get info" dialog box to set all the information the same but the dups are still there. Even after erasing all music with iTunes they are still there.

I recently switched from PC to Mac and am able to find and transfer most of the larger files of music to iTunes, but there are about 750 songs that are held in sub-files that require me to dig in and transfer them one by one to iTunes.. I've tried transferring the parent folders, but it doesn't seem to work. Does anyone know of a more efficient way of getting iTunes to dig into the subfolders and transfer the music without me having to go one by one?

There is a good general guide to switching from Windows to Mac at the following link that touches on moving music as well How to Move to a Mac - Get your stuff from your PC to your new Mac

(ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly. Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.

(ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly. Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.
I mostly use technology for education and professional audiovisuals and lights.
I don't sync music because I use music from at least 4 different computers. (manually mange music)
I use my iPad to play performance tracks for church and a local gospel group out of our church, Won4Christ.
I chose to buy the iPad because the laptop of one of the group members (dellxps running iTunes) was randomly losing and mixing up music and I wanted a more stable option that was bigger than my iPod touch.
I tried to add some data to music libraries that I previously added to my iPad, but the data only shows up when looking at the device in iTunes.
Wifi sync has not worked on either my laptop or desktop ( both running windows 7 enterprise 64 and newest iTunes) not really a big issue, but very annoying
When browsing through library playlist albums on the iPad, random artwork shows up on playlists with no artwork that you touch while dragging, and it does not go away until you change to another navigation tab and back.
Random songs out of hundreds that I added showed up in iTunes grayed out with a sync circle beside them. Those songs would play back okay on the iPad but were unplayable through the iTunes device view. I had to delete the songs manually through the library along with the playlist and add them again.
These seem to be major stability bugs in the "new" music app and iTunes. My only option right now seems to be to delete the songs that I want to change and re-add them with the changes already applied rather than changing the id3 tags and artwork on the existing music. I hope apple will release updates to resolve these issues.
Thank you for actually making it to the end of this manuscript of annoyances.

Just wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

Is it possible to move music to iTunes on a new Mac using my iPod?

Could I move music to iTunes on my new Mac by plugging in my iPod?

Um, maybe but not really. Many people make the mistake of using their i-devices as backup, but it really isn't set up to do it that way. For one, you can only copy media purchased from Apple from an i-device to a computer. Second, your library as you see it on a computer is structured by many files and folders which are not present on your i-device. It would help if you provided a fuller scenario as to why you wish to do things this way.
Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive. Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes. At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.

I have 3 iTunes courses that i downloaded using my iPad. After syncing my iPad with iTunes on my mac, these 3 courses do not appear on my mac iTunes library yet they are still on my iPad.

I have 3 iTunes courses that i downloaded using my iPad. After syncing my iPad with iTunes on my mac, these 3 courses do not appear on my mac iTunes library yet they are still on my iPad.
I have 2 other courses that I downloaded frim my iPad and these appeared on my iTunes (mac) library.
Any idea why the other 3 that i downloaded were not synced in iTunes?

You and the iPad can function with the Remote App from across the room, or in another room.
However, your stereo system has to have a way to communicate or connect with the computer. Unless it has some kind of wifi connector or has Bluetooth, I don't see how you can do this.
There is no app or software to resolve this. You need a way for the stereo to connect.

HT4527 I have had to open itunes on a new computer because my last one died, and I didn't have any backup. Most of my purchased music I got back, but some songs didn't appear and i have to buy them again. Why??

4. Then choose Account Management;
5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
      Continue;
6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
      like your security/challenge questions reset;

You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
      tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
      "done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
      Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
      should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
      security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
      selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
      should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
      questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!
