Can i upload song without iTunes? if so, how?

iTunes isn't working on my computer, but do i need it to upload songs, or is it just for buying music? i already have mp3s to upload already. is this possible w/o iTunes, if so how?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you're comfortable going 'under the hood', this thread originally started in November 2010 contains a minor tweak to OS X that might work for you:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2658720?threadID=2658720&tstart=0
It allows devices on iOS 4.2 or newer to print to shared wired and wireless printers as long as the Mac is on and awake.

Can't Sync Songs Without Itunes Erasing My Existing Library ( PLEASE HELP!)

Okay, My laptop had a problem and I had to restore my system to it's default setting. In which it deleted everything, Including iTunes. I downloaded iTunes again, and I didn't have any of my songs. So I tried to sync them back, But when I tried to sync it, a box popped up stating 'Are you sure you want to sync music? All existing content on the iPod "Alexis's iPod" will be removed and replaced with songs and playlist from your iTunes library.' . I don't want to delete all my songs and have to start over. I Googled how to and many sites told me to go to the summary section and select " manually manage music and videos" under the options tab, then just drag and drop the songs into the iPod. So I went to the summary and did it. But when I tried to drag and drop the selected song, it wouldn't move, I think it may have to do with the fact that I had to resort to using "file sharing sites" (which I was very reluctant in doing, because of the viruses). I couldn't find the songs I wanted on iTunes so I had to find them on a file sharing site. So my question is, How do I sync my songs from the file sharing site and iTunes with out my songs being deleted?

Apple's software doesn't allow transferring music from the iPod to a computer. There are unsupported programs out there that will do this for you, but most aren't freeware.
Good luck!

Can you erase songs from iTunes, but keep them on the iPod???

Hi, I'm a newbie and tried to post this question earlier, but I'm not sure if it worked.
I'm wondering if there is any way to update your ipod, then take some of the songs on itunes, but still plug your ipod in later and keep those former songs on the ipod even if they're not on itunes. I'm thinking this isnt possible. But I wanted to make sure. I have limited HD space, but a 30GB ipod, so I was considering my options.
thanks!

Set the iPod to sync manually; you can then delete songs from iTunes without them being deleted from the iPod automatically. You should keep another copy of the songs if you do this, as they can easily be lost if they are only on the iPod.

I would like to know how can I set songs in iTunes to play at different times automatically during the day. i.e. one song at 10am the other at 10:30am etc..

How can i buy songs off itunes that you can't get on the Canadian version but you can in the u.k. version

How can i buy songs off itunes that you can't get on the Canadian version but you can in the u.k. version
I would really like to get these songs (not illegally like most people) because i really like them but they are only in the U.K. or Irish version of iTunes and I'm on the Canadian version
If anyone can tell me how i could possibly get these that would be great thanks

OS X is the same no matter where you buy it. You can switch it to Japanese or one of 30 other languages in few seconds via the system preferences.
If you want a Japanese keyboard as well, you can select that when you configure your purchase:

Hey lightc,
If you are having an issue with iTunes not recognizing your iPad and iPod on your Windows computer, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Happy computing,

Can't drag songs from itunes onto anything (desktop, flash drive, etc.)

This is weird.
All of a sudden, I can't drag songs from itunes onto the desktop, any folder on my hard drive, my flash drive, or my spare hard drive. On a health computer, if you drag a large number of files, first they land as white icons and they fill in as they get transferred. With my computer, the white icons stick around for a few second and then disappear. The first time I try, I can transfer 1-10 files successfully. After that it stops working. Here is what I've done.
1] Upgraded my system from 10.3.X to 10.4.5
2] I upgraded itunes from 7.0 to 7.3.1
Has anyone seen this before?
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Jeff

Since I can not edit my own post I'll have to reply to myself... Sorry for the "spam" on the forums.
I DID find something out (while playing with this some more)...
Try and copy as many songs as you can with UNIQUE titles. I've noticed that when you drag the songs in iTunes to the desktop (or a folder) the file it creates/copies is named like so: "songtitle.mp3."
Apparently the Finder and iTunes don't play well together [enough] to prevent several files of the same name from appearing - in most OS's I've played with (Linux and Windows, in addition to other Apple & Mac OS's over the years) there's a mechanism for handling this... Windows just adds a number to the end the of the second (and all future occurring) file(s) of the same name - as does most Linux builds I've used... Apparently the Finder in OS X just doesn't do anything - at all - when it discovers this "name error."
What I had to do (I was copying my Christmas music - do you know how many "Jingle Bells.mp3" files you can have?!) was make many folders or manually rename EACH FILE one by one so that others could be copied in the same place since the file name would always be JUST THE SONG NAME and the extension (and I do tend to keep my files in higher bitrate MP3 format for easier shuffling from OS to OS as I tend to use (in case you've not noticed) many different ones at any given time).
So, try avoiding any songs with the same title (or altering the title in iTunes somehow), or make separate folders to keep the same song name files from being created in the same place; and see if that doesn't clear this problem up for you - it did for me. ^_^
And sorry for being so "wordy" on this post. ^_^;

HT204406 cannot upload song to itunes match, i cloud seems keep pending to upload

Cannot upload song to itunes match, i-clould seems keep pending to upload

Ragazzi anche io ho lo stesso problema.
Ho attivato l'iTunes Match, che funziona correttamente sul pc e sull'iPhone 4S.
L'ho attivato anche sul mio iPad, ma, tuttavia, dopo un breve periodo in cui ha funzionato correttamente, ha iniziato a dare problemi.
Vi descrivo di seguito ciò che ho rilevato:
- il periodo in cui l'iTunes Match ha funzionato correttamente sull'iPad è durato solo qualche settimana;
- in seguito, anche se tutti i brani della Cloud venivano visualizzati sull'iPad, dava problemi nel senso che i brani non venivano riprodotti e, inoltre, la durata veniva indicata in "zero" per tutti i brani, sicchè, cliccandoci, non venivano riprodotti;
- ho provato a disattivare e riattivare l'iTunes Match e, a questo punto il dispositivo ha dato il messaggio "tutta la tua libreria musicale verrà sostituita con quella su iTunes Match", mentre, nell'applicazione "MUSICA" erano spariti tutti i brani: veniva visualizzata, al centro della pagina, la nuovoletta del Cloud, con una barra di download sotto. Questo è durato per circa quattro giorni, senza che succedesse nulla, nel senso che la barra del download non mostrava segni di caricamento;
- allora ho provato a ripristanare le impostazioni e, a questo punto, erano visualizzati di nuovo i brani, ma comunque senza possibilità di riprodurli (la durata di nuovo indicata come "zero");
- nel momento in cui ho provato a cliccare su uno dei brani, è riapparsa la nuvoletta del Cloud con la barra di download sotto;
- quando i brani ricompaiono, hanno sempre durata zero e non vengono riprodotti;
- ho attivato anche la condivisione in famiglia ma il problema non cambia.
Vi preciso che il mio iPad è della prima generazione ed è aggiornato all'IOS 6.

HT4914 can you download songs from itunes match from the cloud to your iPhone ie for times when you dont have internet connection

Unless you have an Internet connection you cannot access iCloud. You can download your music from iCloud to store permanently on your iPhone, but only when you have an Internet connection to do so.

I synced ipod to itunes (windows), it removed all my single purchased songs. I can see the songs in itunes, but they are gray

I synced ipod to itunes (windows), itunes removed all my single purchased songs from my iphone. I can see the songs in itunes, but they are gray and I can't move them back to my iphone or to any other device. I can't play them on the computer in itunes, I can't move them back to my iphone (where original purchase was made), and I can't move them into another ipod.

I had the Itunes store do this to one song out of three I downloaded. I went back to the Itunes store and reclicked on the song to download it again. It ran the download again and got the complete song this second time. Then I just resynced with my Itunes and all is fixed.

Downloaded songs from iCloud to touch, but can't play songs without wifi. Defeats the purpose.

this is so stone age and android is so futristic compared to iphone since android can be use the way anyone wants and you can share or send anything to anyone with just using wi-fi direct or BT not to talk about free apps and music and video downloads :S so i have paid for my iphone but still it isn´t mine since im limited in a use of it

Let's try to explain this:
iPhones operate on iOS, which has the highest level of safeguards against malware. There have been ZERO reported & confirmed cases of a non-jailbroken iOS device suffering from malware.
Android's operate on an OS that actually ALLOWS significant modifications to the system, which, by definition, allows malware to easily infiltrate the device. Does it happen to all Android users? No. But percentage wise,it's basically infinitely more likely for an Android user to suffer from malware than an iOS user.
79 percent of all mobile device malware targets the Android platform. That's means an Android is 113 times more likely than even a jailbroken iOS device to suffrer from malware.
http://www.v3.co.uk/v3-uk/news/2291561/android-malware-makes-up-79-percent-of-to tal-threats-warns-us-department-of-homeland-security
Apple iOS and "other" operating systems were both listed as being the victims of 0.7 percent of all mobile malware.
The low number of threats targeting Apple iOS, despite the popularity of its iPhone and iPad devices, is largely due to the closed security model. This model forces developers to sell their wares on Apple's official App Store, which closely vets all applications before allowing them into the marketplace.

I can't put songs from iTunes on my Mac onto iPod. iPod accepts podcasts but not songs.

I open itunes application from ipod. There's no common songs i want to buy. There are only podcast, itunes U, and search menu. So i try search from itunes website, browsing via safari. Then i find what i want. I want to start buy a song "payphone" by maroon 5. Then i click " buy from itunes" . Then appears my itunes application n my apple store application. But there's no maroon 5. :-(

Sorry I somehow managed to click the wrong thing and made a silly mistake, as I had hoped.
Can a moderator please remove this thread as I have resolved my problem.
Kind regards,
