Can't burn cds to library, can't load itunes store, can't recognize ipod

I downloaded the new version of itunes and now it doesn't work very well....
1. I could not burn the a brand new cd into my library, the process was stuck "connecting to gracenote"
2. My itunes store will not load
3. my ipod is not always recognized by the computer
How do I fix these problems?  I tried to reinstall itunes, but that didn't seem to work.

I'm assuming you have already resolved the issue, but if you have not, I would recommend that you uninstall iTunes completely and remove anything related to Apple on your computer including Quicktime. See this post for what you need to remove: http://mismike.blogspot.com/2008/03/itunes-wont-close-on-windows-xp-sp2.html. Good luck.

  • I attempted to download a song. It originally did not download correctly. I refreshed the download and it supposedly completed. Upon playing the song in both my library and on the Itunes store it will not play past the first 5 seconds. How can I fix this?

    Hello Whitney262,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I would go ahead and make sure you can first download the content, then remove the song from your iTunes Library, and download again from your iTunes past purchases.  The article below will walk you through the entire process:

  • How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers.

    How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers, but I don't know how I did it.

    For me, iTunes always opens to whatever I had selected previously when it was closed.
    In other words, if I had Apps selected when I closed iTunes, the next time I opened iTunes it would be on Apps.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that didn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter the Wi-Fi password.

  • I am unable to burn CDs with songs recently purchased from itunes. No problem before. When I try to burn a playlist with new songs, I get the error message that "songs will not it on 1 audio CD". If I remove all songs except the new one, it will burn.

    I am unable to burn CD's with the last 4 songs I've purchased from the iTunes store. I can burn CD's from playlist using previously purchased songs with no problem. With a normal length playlist including 1 of the newly purchased songs, I get the message "songs will not fit on one CD". I can remove all but the new song and 1 other and the CD will burn. I have upgraded to the latest version of iTunes and still have the problem.

    I have that EXACT same problem! I have no idea what to do though, but it is very mucho frustrating. Let me know if you find out anything, and I will do the same.

  • Can't put iTunes Store items on Video iPod

    Hi everyone... hopefully someone can help me out!
    I have a brand new Video iPod, a flat panel Mac G4 using Tiger 10.4.4, and iTunes 6.0.2.
    Every song and audiobook that I have purchased from the iTunes store will NOT go on my iPod. It keeps telling me that "some of the songs in the iTunes music library were not copied to the iPOD because your iPod software is too old." Ok, I know that's not the case because it's brand new, but I updated everything anyway.
    What I finally noticed is that the songs are locked. When I see them in my music folder on my hard drive, they have a little lock icon in the upper left corner of the music icon which, coincidentally, is in a M4P format. All the songs I have purchased, and the 3 audiobooks as well, are all like that- locked and M4P format (or MP4).
    Has anyone else experienced this problem and, if so, do you know how I can get this stuff on my iPod? Every question sent to Apple has been met with the same "solution" of either update it, restore it, restart it, etc. I've done all that. It appears to be something to do with the fact that these things are locked. Can I unlock them somehow??

    Yes and no... I am TRYING to use the latest update of the software, which is "iPod updater 2006-01-10." It says I am updated, so I tried to put my "purchased" music on my iPod and it still gives me the message that I am unable to add those songs because my iPod software is too old. So I went to restore it instead, and the updater software says I need to connect using the firewire. But when I use the firewire it doesn't recognize the iPod!
    I took the songs giving me trouble and put them on a CD. I imported the CD onto my laptop. From there I was able to restore the iPod, finally, and I was able to put those elusive "purchased" songs on the iPod, but when I connected it back to my main computer, I was back to square one. I needed to reconnect the iPod to my main computer because after the restore on the laptop I lost all my original songs, so I had to get the songs from the main computer. By doing that, I lost the "purchased" songs because iTunes wouldn't let me keep them AND add the my old songs back on because they are from different libraries! ARGH!
    Apparently I just need to take it in to be fixed because I've serioulsy tried everything. If there was a way to transfer the iTunes library from the main computer to the laptop, everything would probably work. Is that possible?

  • Why can I not get to the iTunes store or sync my iPod Touch?

    I am not able to sync my iPod or go to the iTunes store at all. I have turned off my firewall and my anti-virus and still can't do either. So it is obviously a problem with iTunes does anyone have any ideas for me to try? I am just frustrated that this won't work because its the program I use the most.

    Looks like there's a general problem across the US and UK at Apple's end. I've not been able to connect since this morning and there are loads of threads on here about the same issue.

  • IPod Music Library "Greyed Out" in iTunes when I plug my iPod in... help!

    Hi... not sure how to explain this, so I'll do my best... if anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it!
    When I plug my video iPod into iTunes via USB, I can see all of the songs in my iPod's music library in iTunes, but they are all "greyed out." The songs in my iTunes are fine and can be accessed, but when I look in the iPod's music library in iTunes, all of the songs show up but are inaccessible. Any ideas??? I'd really appreciate any help!

    Grey text when you look at the content and a lock symbol at the bottom of the screen just indicates that the iPod is set to sync automatically with iTunes. If you want to play the iPod songs through iTunes, delete songs from the iPod, drag songs from iTunes, add playlists to the iPod etc. you need to change the update setting to "manually manage songs and videos". The text will change from grey to black and everything will be directly accessible through iTunes:
    Managing content manually on iPod
    Syncing Music to iPod
    Something to remember about using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • Windows Vista can't recognize Ipod Classic

    I bought an Ipod of a guy yesterday. It's a classic. I did a lot so bare with me here.
    It doesnt show up in Itunes.
    When I turn off the ipod and turn it back on.
    it says the device driver can't be installed and is unrecognized.
    I'm installing Windows Servce Pack 2 as we speak in hope that an updated driver is in there.
    Someone told me Ipod classics don't work with windows 7 period.
    Someone help me!
    Is the updated driver in a service pack?
    Or what?
    I just want to listen to music!
    I uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes multiple times.
    I don't want to keep doing it because it takes forever.
    Do I have to download a older version of itunes?
    What do I do?!?!?

    Do this 5Rs first and tell me what you see on the iPod Screen, after charging the iPod and  Reset
    To do a Hard Reset
    Charge your Ipod for at least 2 hours
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the Red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

  • ITunes diagnostics can't recognize iPod though iTunes itself can

    iTunes does open up when I plug in my ipod and I can also delete or add music to it. However, if I run the diagnostics in the Device sync tests it will be in red and say, "No iPod Touch, iPhone or ipad found." 1st why is 'it' not found since stuff could be done to it. And 2nd why does it say "iPod Touch, iPhone or ipad" since it isn't any of these really? Certainly the test is not made for only those 3 hence my question it.
    Thank you

    It should be a bit further up on the report.  I'll try to post a screen shot a little later on or if you are up for it, post your diagnostic test reports.
    "One or more tests failed." this to me begs 2 questions; Well is it on or two? how could it not know?
    It should tell you what failed.  If not, you should still be able to determine what failed from looking at the report.

  • Importing & Burning CDs while trying to listen to iTunes at the same time

    I used to be always listen to any song in my iTunes library while I was either importing or burning a CD, and it sounded normal. But now, if I try to listen to a song while I am importing or burning a CD the sound gets really fuzzy, the songs slows down, and starts skipping. Has anyone ever had this happen to them? What did I do to make this start happening? And more importantly...does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks!

    Exact same problem here - iTunes has been maxing out the CPU since version 7.3 and this appears to be causing the distortion.
    I've seen a few similar posts on these boards but no one has posted a fix.
