Can anyone help me import over 3000 songs into iTunes?

I can't "find" over three thousand songs on my computer and back-up hard drive. When I open my library it lists many songs but there are exclamtion points next to most. I fiirst tried Apple support common problems and none of the remedies solved my proble. I am not even sure how many iTunes files I have between my laptop and back-up hard drive. Sure could use some help? When I try to play a song from the libaray with an excalmation point it offeres the opotion to find the location. I of course can do this but it will take me for ever to do one song at a time. Thanks.

Uga, this is a link from Scott Patrie in the iTunes for Windows forum that I think may help resolve the poor sound issue.

Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one. Thank you.

iTunes Match is a subscription system that allows you to upload your own music (e.g. coped from CDs) to the cloud so that it shows (in the cloud) on your devices and computers without having to sync/copy it.
Automatic downloads allows to, for example, buy an app on your computer's iTunes and have it automatically download on your phone without having to connect and sync it or go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your download and download it yourself - but doing that, going to the Purchased tab and redownloading an app, should get it associated.
But no, I'm not aware of any problems that not having it associated causes.

Problems importing 4000 approx songs into itunes

I have recently purchased a new Apple Macbook. I am however experieicing importing all my songs into itunes. Approx 1,500 get imported successfully and then it just finishes with no explanation as to why its stopped.
I have also a Imac computer and this imported all 4000 approx songs successfully.
I am trying to import wirelessley.
My songs are on a Time Capsule (2008 model)

Same problem here. iTunes just won't import some of my mp3s and I can't figure out why. Most of my mp3s work respectively iTunes adds them but some of them won't - just nothing happens either through adding via the menu or drag&drop them. They just don't appear. Oh yeah and the mentioned mp3s work perfectly in winamp...

Can anyone help with an error message when installing iTunes?

Hi,
I have been trying to upgrade my iTunes to 7.6, I have been unable to upgrade since version 7.3 it fails right at the end, well this time it didn't work either. I took the advice of the support pages and uninstalled iTunes but when I try to re-install I get this during the first part when it is installing QuickTime,
A portion of the folder path " is invalid. It is either empty or exceeds the length allowed by the system.
I click OK and get this,
The installation of QuickTime did not complete successfully. iTunes requires QuickTime.
I have tried to uninstall QuickTime but I get the same messages.
Can anyone help me?!

Hi, can anyone help with how to shuufle songs on playlist with the iphone 4. mine just keeps repesting the same song..thank you

Hi, I can't shuffle songs on my playlis (iphone4)it..keeps repeating the same song...aaagghhh..thanks

I had a similar problem and I finally got rid of it. I had bought a single song from itunes and synced it to my iphone. A few months later I bought the whole cd which included that song from a record store and imported it to itunes. I deleted the previously purchased copy from my library but the next time I synced my phone I had two copies of that song again.
Try deleting the song from your itunes library. The next time you sync your iphone it will say something like "you have purchased content on your iphone that is not in your itunes library, would you like to transfer this content to your library? If you don't transfer it it will be removed from your iphone."
Select not to transfer the content (assuming you have no other new songs you need to transfer) and you should be rid of the extra copy.
I hope this makes sense and helps.

My playlists only appear in itunes when my ipod is connected, and it will not allow me to drag songs into playlists from the music library, can anyone help. Have downloaded newest version of itunes and using windows xp.

My Playlist only appear in the itunes when the ipod is connected , and I can not drag a song into a playlist, Also I repeatedly get a message to authorize the songs purchased in order to sync the ipod. I followed the instructions in the help menu on doing this but nothing seems to work, Help anybody ? Have installed the lastest version of itunes and I'm running windows XP. Thanks

Is it possible that you are not seeing the thirteenth song because you did not scroll all the way down within the playlist?
Hope this helps!

Can anyone help me with the fuzzy sound in ITunes?

I have a new IPod and things worked fine and then suddenly I downloaded a CD in and it sounded fuzzy and scratchy like an old LP. Now all of the songs in ITunes play this way. But the CDs play just fine in any other program, so it's ITunes that's the problem.
Has anyone else encountered this and if so, can you explain (as if I were a 4-year old) how you fixed it? I manage my way around the computer OK, but don't know much technical jargon or where to find certain things.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Can someone help me import perfect csv spreadsheet into address book?

I have spent almost two years perfecting my excel spreadsheet with columns exactly matching the fields in address book, and saved as a CSV. When I try to import up comes a two-column list, fine up until column 8, where it suddenly starts saying "do not import" and "ignore" and "in use". I fiddle for hours but don't know what it means. Experiments lead to fields in the wrong places. I have read a whole correspondence about this, but solutions too complex for me.

Anything here help?

Can't import a single song into itunes

I was trying to import some of my old cd-singles into iTunes, and the column next to the name of the song where the check box should be is not there. I have to import the whole cd and then go back and delete the songs I do not want that *****... Please advise. iTunes 10.2.2 on a mackbook pro 2.4 2010

In iTunes 10.5, if you go into Preferences, under General check "Show list checkboxes". This worked for me.

Can anyone help? Imported iMovie HD projects seem screwed up

I have imported video from iMovie HD into 08, and HELP! In one case. the clips don't play, and the titles seem to have disappeared. In another the clips play, but sometimes with the wrng sound, and again the titles have gone.
(Oh, and be careful: if you import video into iMovie 08 and then erase the original copy (which you may need to do if you are not going to overfill your hard-drive), any iDVD projects that use the video content will become useless.)
All very frustrating!

Oooh, do tell more. How do you do what you are suggesting?
Navigate to your iMovie HD project in the Finder. Control-click the project icon to open the "contextual menu options." Select "Show Package Contents" to see the files/folders contained in the project package. Open the "Shared Movie" folder. Inside you should see an "iDVD" folder. Opening it you will find the "Project_filename.mov" that represents the currently saved contents of the the project's timeline to include titles, transitions, effects, etc. (This is the data that would normally be sent to iDVD if you were going to burn a DVD of your finished project.) Simply copy the file to another location or HDD so it can be imported in its entirety to iMovie '08.
NOTE: Never tried moving/removing this file from the package as I thought it might have the potential to corrupt the iMovie HD project and am in the habit of working from work/backup files in case there is ever a problem. (I.e., just don't like restarting from scratch if I can avoid it.)

Can anyone help with an invalid pin on an iTunes card

I purchased an iTunes card today and i entered the code correctly but a message states that the code is not a valid code. Has any one had problems with this before and how can I fix it? Online support was no help because it wasn't working.

When confronted with an issue that Disk Utility can't fix, most people get Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro may be able to help too. Or you could try wiping the disk clean, writing zero's to the surface, and restore from backup.
Here's the mount format for 10.5. If you have 10.4 or earlier, you can choose it at the top of the page: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/Manpages/ 10.5/man8/mount.8.html

Can anyone help me figure out how to get iTunes working?

When I upgraded to iTunes 10, every time I tried to open iTunes it would give me an "Error 7: iTunes not properly installed" message. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and restarting my computer multiple times. Finally, I went through my programs list and uninstalled all of the Apple software (QuickTime, Application Support, etc.) Then I reinstalled iTunes again.
Now when I open iTunes, I get an "Error 2: Apple Application Support not found" message. I tried extracting the iTunesSetup.exe to a new folder and installing the AppleApplicationsSupport.msi file separately, but the installation gets partway through and gives me a "Cannot access Key (block of gibberish) Ensure you have access to key..." message and the installation fails. I'm logged into an Administrator Account, the same account that I used to install iTunes 9, so this doesn't make much sense to me.
What can I do to get iTunes working? I really need help.

Those are unpleasant ones, usually striking 64-bit systems. They're not easy to troubleshoot, but the following set of instructions is a good place to start:
