Can't Add Music to iTunes 64-Bit (Windows 7)

I just bought a brand new Asus K52F laptop last week. It runs Windows 7 64-bit. I downloaded iTunes for Windows 64-bit version. It opens fine, I can access the iTunes store, and I can transfer my apps/purchased music from my iPod Touch. But when I try to add my MP3's into iTunes, the green status bar comes up showing that the songs are being added, but when it finishes, none of those MP3's show up. Also, since iTunes is my default audio player, I used to be able to click Play on a file, and iTunes would automatically open and start playing the song. When I do this now, iTunes still opens automatically, but doesn't play anything. Help!
Edit: I also have CD's ripped onto the computer that won't add to iTunes. I have tried adding and playing music through another media player, and the files work fine.

Same for me. I want to rip from CDs that I've bought and put them onto my iPod. I don't want to have to pay twice!!
I have two computers and apparently now my iPhone isn't linked to either (i assume because I've added music previously from both so what's on there doesn't match either) and i don't want to have to spend hours uploading CDs again onto one computer and sync my phone to just one.
The drag and drop function was so good and I'm at a loss as to what to do now.
Can't we just have it back?!

Please help-Can I add music to iTunes from my iPod?

Can I add to my iTunes library from my iPod? How? If I sync my iPod what happens to the music that is on my iPod but not in my iTunes library? If the music dissappears then how can I ever put more music on the iPod without losing songs on it that are not in my iTunes?

Can't add music to iTunes 10.6.3

Hi there,
I am running iTunes 10.6.3 on my OSX 10.5.8 . All of a sudden (well, maybe I just noticed it, but definitely within the last three weeks) - can't remember if I updated in that time period), I am unable to add music to iTunes. I can't drag and drop, can't do file --> add music to library, nothing. If I get music by converting youtube to mp3, THAT opens in iTunes, but I've just downloaded an entire album and don't really want to go converting fifteen+ songs one by one.
I don't have Cloud, don't have match.... can anyone help me?

Hold down the option key while starting iTunes, then select library. Your library is stored in your Home > Music > iTunes > iTunes Library.itl file
iTunes can be picky about mp3 formatting and not all mp3s files are created the same.

How can I add music from itunes to my slideshow in premiere?

How do I add music from itunes to my slideshow in premiere?

What have you tried, and do you receive an error message?
In general, itunes has DRM (copy protection) so it will only work according to the license... and as far as I know, Apple's license does not allow use in a new product, only in the Apple player... new product being the video you want to create

I can't add music to iTunes with latest software and updates.

I just updated to Mavericks and I have version 11.1.3 (8) of iTunes. I still had music in a folder that was not in the itunes media folder and now I can't add this music to iTunes or even play the music. Is there anything I can do to fix this so I can add the music to iTunes?

Just try to downgrade to older ITunes version, there's serioud problem with lastest ITunes upgrade.
Time machine can fix this problem is ur latest backup was a few months ago and contains an older ITunes version.
Version 11.3 doesnt support iPod classic & 3th gen Ipod & Iphone anymore.
Its a matter of Apple politics.

Can't add music to iTunes Library

As the subject states, I am no longer able to add music to my iTunes Library. If I try to add a song, it tells me that I do not have permissions to write to my Music folder. I went to the Music folder's Get Info window, and under Ownership and Permissions, this is what it said:
You can: Read & Write
Details:
Owner: admin (lock is locked)
Access: Read & Write
Group: admin
Access: Read & Write
Others: No Access
By the way, 'admin' is my short name. I have tried repairing my permissions with Disk Utility, but it did not correct anything in my Music folder. I have looked at permissions for other folders, and some say 'staff' as the group. Should I change the group to that? This is becoming very frustrating. If anyone knows what may be going on here, please _do not hesitate_ to tell me.

Have you tried authorizing your computer? In iTunes go up to Store, then Authorize Computer. Type in your user name and password and click "Authorize". You will then get a pop-up window stating if your authorization was successful or not. Hopefully this will give you access to do as you please with your Music Library.

Can't add music to iTunes 11.0.2

Hey guys, I am using iTunes 11.0.2 on Windows 7 and I just recently purchased a new nano. When I went to go add some more music onto it tonight to my suprise nothing I selected would upload my iTunes library at all. I have tried restarting my computer, logging in and out of iTunes, converting the songs to AAC, turning off cloud and turning off match. Theorectically I could probably buy the songs but after this I don't want to give them the satisfaction and my money. Nothing has worked so far and I'm getting very irritated (what is the point of having an iPod if I can't add anything to it?) and if anyone has any suggestions I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

Can't add music in itunes

hi, I tried to add some musics in itunes but that doesn't work.
Itunes can't add some of my song please help
Mark

Oaky, let me rephrase it.
W H A T H A P P E N S?
How do you try to add it?
Is it imported from a CD?
Is it downloaded from the iTunes music store?
Is it stored on your hard drive somewhere?
How do you try to add it to iTunes?
When you try to add it what happens?
Do you receive an error?
When you go to File ->Add to Library, are you selecting a single song or a folder?
Does it actually let you select the songs?
Does iTunes quit when you do this?

Can't add music to iTunes 10.6.1

I'm having problems in adding any kind of music media into iTunes 10.6.1 on OSX. Funny thing is that when i preview the file in finder it plays, some files also play in itunes when i double click them, but theyr'e nowhere to be found in the library. I can't drag and drop or add to the library manually through File > Add to Library > so on so forth either :S
Any suggestions?

I just ran into this too. I did some searching around and didn't find anything which pointed to a bug or a feature, but perhaps I'm just not reading the right stuff or searching with the correct criteria.
What I did find is that iTunes Match is the problem. As soon as I turned it off, all my "missing" files appeared, all 4-6 versions of them which I had kept dragging and dropping trying to add. TV shows, movies and music alike.
Unless this is a "feature" of iTunes Match, which I dislike as a feature, then Match has some serious flaws.

Help! Can't add music to Itunes?

I recently got a Macbook a couple days ago. I then had to use my Ipod to transfer all my songs to the itunes. It was fairly successful, all my songs from my PC/Ipod were then on my Mac. Today I looked at my trash and it had a blue itunes folder in it. I thought it was nothing (very stupidly, might I add) and just emptied the trash. Two things then occured. I couldn't continue the emptying because it wasn't finished closing, although it was closed. I also noticed every song I clicked go the "!" next to it. I decided to just delete all the songs off of Itunes so I wouldn't have to locate all of them. I then attempted to put the songs back on, and they will not transfer. They do absolutely nothing. The videos I have on there were located just fine and still work, but it is currently impossible to add songs and listen to them.
I then thought I should just download itunes again, and the folders that may have been lost will be replaced and I will just re-add the songs. This didn't work because as I installed, the installer asked me to 'close the following applications." the application was itunes, which was not open.
I'm clueless now. I've tried multiple times.
Please, please, help!

No i don't have itunes match but the problem suddenly i cannot add new music,video,photos etc to itunes to sync i tried everything for example in the preferences i check and uncheck many things nothing happen then in the summary page i check manually... but itunes is not working like before for example when connect it it would sync automatic but not now and when i have sync it tells me remove music then sync.I think this will do for details if u need more then let me Jimzgoldfinch and thanks.

Can't add music to itunes

I've re-installed itunes, and nothing is working. I've tried adding songs both by "Add song", by drag and drop - nothing is working.
I'm trying to add aiff files, m4a, and mp4s to my iTunes library. The files are on my computer.

MP3 files may be corrupted, iTunes won't add/play corrupted files so you must repair them.
Follow this tutorial to fix your files: http://trevinchow.com/blog/2008/09/17/fix-for-mp3-songs-not-playing-in-itunes/
Experienced users just download "MP3 Validator" (MPIIIVal) at http://www.gromkov.com/faq/repair/mp3_validator.html and follow your instincts to fix your files.
If by the time you try links are broken, I read another solution is to burn your files and rip them again, sounds logic since they will be recreated, but that's the long way.
Initially I thought it was due to some license issue, maybe my files were protected, I was able to play them in other players (Windows media, winamp, etc.) but finally was able to add my Soulfly songs.

Can't add music from itunes to iphone 4

Just got a new computer, downloaded itunes 11 and registed my itunes account with my new device (allowed or whatever). Now I just got some new CDs and itunes 11 wont let me drag and add to my flipping iphone!

Stop shouting, it simply does not help your cause or make others want to assist you.
Has the content been moved from the old computer to the new computer? If not, copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
iPhones are designed to sync to one and only one computer, attempts to sync to a second computer will cause iTunes to want to wipe the device. It can also prevent the user from manually managing content on multiple computers.

HT1473 how can i add music to itunes store?

well how?

Add content to the device the same way you always have, via iTunes on a computer.
iDevices sync with a single computer/library. Attempts to sync to a different computer/library will wipe the current content on the device and replace it with content from the new computer/library.

Can't add music my iPhone from iTunes. When I try to drag a song over to my phone, I get the circle w/ the syncing line through it, but it does not update/load. [Manually manage music and videos] is checked. And, this is the only Mac I have ever used to

Also, just updated the phone's software today, and iTunes' software is already up to date.

Hi Gregg,
Have you tried resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your Music app is behaving normally.
Cheers,

Had 3G, moved to 3GS. Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem. When I want to add songs, I get itunes message that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything. How can I add music?

Had 3G, moved to 3GS. Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem on a Dell computer. But now when I want to add songs, I get itunes message of death that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything. How can I add music without erasing everything on my new iphone?

Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me. Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?
