Backing up music from Itunes libray to DVDS
Hi there,
I have been trying to back up my music from Itunes to DVDs.The first disk is fine and then it says to insert 2nd disk which i did and then nothing happens. The back up doesn't continue.
Can anyone please help me.
Thank you much.
Jen
Just to add more info, it does seem the DVD-Rs that get spit backout are then wasted. if I put one in again, it gets spit out, asking that I put a blank one in. Wow...
I've had 6 successful burns, but 9 'kickbacks' of blank DVD-Rs, rejected during the initializing for "medium white error". And those are no good now.
Any help?

How do I record music from Itunes to a dvd to play on a Sony DVD player dvp sr500h?
How do I record music from Itunes to a dvd, that shows it is finishing but will not play on my hardrive or on a Sony DVD player, dvp sr500H?
If you are burning a DVD directly from iTunes (a feature which is present in older versions of iTunes but which was removed in iTunes 10.4), that creates a computer-type DVD for backup only and cannot play in any DVD player I know of. If you want to create a disk that can play in a DVD player, you'll need to burn an audio CD, an MP3 CD if the player will accept MP3 CDs, or use some other software.

Transfering music from Itunes/Mac to DVD to Itunes PC using Toast
I'd like to share some of my music with a friend (long distance) who has Itunes for PC(windows). Can I burn songs onto a DVD using Toast Titanium? When he imports the music from the DVD will the song info show up on his Itunes? Will this work for purchased music too?
Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)You can make Audio cds, and data backups of the music you purchsed from the iTMS for your personal use only. This is according to the Terms of Service you agreed to when you signed up for your account on the iTMS. The terms of service do not allow you to "share" any music purchsed by you with anyone else.
Besides, if you want your friend to be able to play the music you want to "share" with him you will have to give him your iTMS username and password. -
Program Closes if I Drag Music from iTunes
My iDVD '08 program closes as soon as I attempt to drag music from iTunes into the DVD clip for sound/music. I have made previous DVDs in the past using this program and have never had this problem. Steps I have taken so far:
1. Restarted the computer;
2. Checked for updates to the program/computer (everything up-to-date);
3. Attempted to save the project under a different name;
4. Started an entirely new project.
None of these steps have worked so far. Any suggestions?Hi fatbum
Welcome to apple discussions. First quit iDvd. Then drag and drop the plist for iDvd to the trash if you haven't already, restart your mac and then repair permissions from apple's disc utility.
com.apple.iDvd.plist
You state you have run software updater already, Good. Now I'd like you Not to turn off your mac for at least 24 hours. Set energy saver controls to never. Screen saver is ok but do not allow the hard drive to sleep. Then try iDvd again. Sometimes it takes a while for the OS to fully index so please be patient.
Please verify you have no less than 25 GB's of available hard drive space remaining on the boot volume (your main HD). Otherwise all of the above is in vain.

I am trying to back up my music on iTunes to a DVD. When I choose File>Library>Back Up to Disc, (Back up to disc) doesn't appear, so I cannot backup my music to aDVD.
The back up to disc feature has been removed from recent builds of iTunes. Use SyncToy (PC) or Carbon Copy Cloner (Mac) to clone your iTunes library onto an alternate internal, external or network drive.

My HDD crashed and it contained all of the music from which iTunes and iMatch pulled files from. Is there a way to recover the music from iTunes Match and download it back to my new HDD?
My computer HDD did not crash only my external drive with the music files. I have not had to reinstall iTunes software. The iTunes libarary is still complete and shows the complete list of music. I have also ran Update iTunes Match and all of the music is on the cloud.
I cannot play the music from iTunes that is on the cloud, however the music I purchased from iTunes did download and it will plan from my computer.
The matched or uploaded music is what will not download and I can't find a command that allows me to download from Match.
Sorry if I'm not being very clear, however I do really appreciate your help and suggestions. -
Why can't I back up music from my iPhone or iPod to my iTunes?
Happy with my iPhone 4s so far, no battery issue's and an excellent phone but there is one thing I dislike with a passion.
I own more than one computer, I have desktops, laptops and netbooks and I have music I have purchased or recorded from vinyl or backed up from CD on different machines. I want to place this music and videos onto my iPhone to enjoy but when I try to get iTunes to sync it tells me it will delete the music currently on my iPhone for the new playlist? This is ********!
For example if I were to go through the lengthy process of backing up all of my music from my various computers and collections to only one PC and then making a huge playlist just for my iPhone, then my main PC breaks and dies, my only option would be to either never add more music to my iPhone or lose all of the music on my iPhone? And please don't come back with purchases from iTunes will be available, my music collection and everybody else's is much greater than an iTunes collection.
This is the dumbest feature of the iPhone in my opinion and makes functionality a pain.
Is there a work around for this problem? or do you just have to accept you lose everything in the event of a stolen computer or hard disk failure?Put all your music in one computer liberary, network the computers to use this shared resource so that you can add and remove music from any computer on your network. You are then saving space across all your computers and will be able to keep your music archive well organized.
Back up your music on an external hard drive, USB drive, backup drive or cloud storage just like you would anything else you don't want to lose. Having the music on various computers isn't more safe than having it on one computer. If you have it on one computer and it crashes you lose everything its true, but if you have it on multiple computers you will only lose part of your library but the chances of something going wrong are now upped because you're working with 4 computers. Its good to back everything up anyways.
Sync phone with one computer that has all the networked music in its library. Live long, prosper, grow in the force, etc. -
When i try to add music from itunes to my ipod, Itune tells me the music on my ipod came from a differnt libray and wants to erase my whole ipod. i just loaded my ipod two days ago. i don't want to replace everything every time i want to add two to songs. My MacBook Pro is the only autherized computer.
To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place and you will be able to change your settings.

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...

I accidentally deleted a folder of music from iTunes. I have Match, and now it seems deleted from all my devices. How can I get it back?
Were you in iTunes or the Finder? If you were in iTunes what exactly did you click? You say "a folder" but the only "folders" in iTunes contain Playlists and deleting a playlist will not delete tracks from the iTunes library.
When you deleted the music were you prompted to delete the tracks from the cloud? If so, did you do so?
Were you prompted to move the files to the Trash. If so did you do so? If you did have you emptied the Trash? -
I have a 25" 2.8 GHz Intel core 2 Duo working on OS X 10.8.4, within past 2 days we've had the black screen and the white screen, we are up and kicking again but I can leave the computer playing music from iTunes, but within 10 minutes the screen is back, yet the music is still playing in the background. I can't get rid of the black screen unless I force quit the computer, then it starts ok. Then the process starts all over again.

i had a problem with my iphone and had to restore and now i have lost all music from itunes any way to get it back ?
It should ne in itunes on your computer and included in your regular backup of your computer.
If for some reason you have failed to backup your music, then - in the U.S only - you can get previous itunes purchases from the beta version of icloud. Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links. -
So my daughter plugged her ipad into home pc to download music from itunes and it wiped everthing out of her ipad and copied my ipad info from the last time I had mine plugged in. Is there anyway to get her info back like all her pictures?
Had she backed up her iPad to a different computer or iCloud?
If not, it's gone.

I downloaded music from iTunes years ago and haven't accessed it since. How do I get back into my account? Thanks.
If you are logged in with the same account that you bought them with, and they are still in your country's store and you haven't moved countries since buying them, then they might show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app for redownloading, and the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes. If not all show there then check to see if you've hidden any of them : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
If they are no longer in the store or you've moved countries then do you have a copy of them anywhere ? If you still have the iPod with them on then you can connect it to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to your iTunes library so that you can take a backup copy and sync them to your iPad. -
