Can't fit 73mb of songs on a 700mb disk?
I was asked to copy a disk for a friend, just 73.6MB of songs on a 700MB CD-R. The songs imported easily, but when I tried to burn the playlist, I was told they wouuldn't fit!??
ITunes stores music files in one format, but if you want to burn an audio cd that is playable on a regular cd player, it must convert each song into another format. So when you're browsing through iTunes, the sizes you see (like 73.6mb) represent the size occupied by the files as they reside on your computer. But when you ask the computer to create an audio cd, those files will occupy much more space than 73.6mb.
This is all completely normal. A typical audio cd contains audio data that will often fill up an entire 700mb cd with audio data. When you import those songs into your computer, they will typically be reduced to about 1/10th their original size.
When burning audio cds from iTunes playlists, a much more useful indicator would be to look at the total duration of all the songs. If you're asking it to create more than 80 minutes of music as an audio cd, it will not work. Some audio cds only support 74 minutes of music.
Try removing tracks in your playlist until you get under 80 minutes, and burn that.

Can't burn 375MB of songs to a 700MB CD???
I've got a playlist with 38 songs (4.3 hours, 375MB) in iTunes. When I burn the CD, iTunes says, the songs won't fit on an audio CD.
Why not???
It should hold 80minutes of music...Can I point you to two facts in your post:
1) The playlist is 4.3 hours
2) A CD can hold 80 minutes of music
I think you answered your own question.

Okay guys iTunes keeps telling me I don't have enough space to sync the songs and I know that is BS because it clearly says 3 GB free and yet it won't sync. Has anyone had this issue ever? Before a week ago I could fit 900 songs and now I can't fit 300. I know that my phone could fit 800-900 songs and there aren't many apps. There has to be a glitch. Can someone help? Please send me a response if you truly know the answer.

<Email Edited By Host>know that is BS because it clearly says 3 GB
Didn't know an iPhone is capable of "BS"! Impressive. Do the basic troubleshooting steps described in the User Guide: Restart, Reset, Restore.

How many songs can I fit into a 16gb new ipod nano
How mnay songs can i fit into the new ipod nano 16gb?
Thanks BHAs many as it can hold. As the size of a song varies depending on its length and bitrate, there is no single number of songs which it can hold.

anyone else have problems putting 4 gb of songs on their mini? i can only fit 3.5+gb, or 933 songs...apple says the rest of the space is used for software.
I believe that what you are experiencing has to do with the different options you may enable your ipod for.
If you are also using it for contacts, etc, you will end up with less than the 4 GB that you ipod can hold. Try shutting some of these options off and see what happens.
Unfortunately, I cannot tell you how many MB of space is used by the software/firmware to run your ipod.
I use my ipod for only holding songs and as such I end up with very close to 4 GB of space. -
I have IPhone 5. Songs on phone do not match songs in my itunes library. Can't get rid of songs on phone because they don't show up in library.
Hi there,
It sounds like you may need to hide these purchases in the iTunes Store in order to prevent them from displaying on the Apple TV. Take a look at the article below for more information.

I can NOT see all my songs on iPhone5 since activating iTunes Match about a week ago!
ALL songs are available on my iPad3
ALL songs are available on my Win7 computer iTunes
I just did:
Transfer purchases from iPhone and a Music Sync
NOTHING. Tunes and artists are still NOT SHOWING on my iPhone5\
BUYING another copy makes it available on te iPhone, but at double the price
However, some show as PURCHASED, so I can't get another copy on the iPhone
There are MAJOR PROBLEMS with iTUNES MATCH!
This problems is ONLY on the iPhone 5It might take a while (30 minutes or more) for the initial sync to finish.
When it finishes, here's how to see all you desktop bookmarks:
# Press the "Search" button on your Android phone, or tap in the Firefox address bar.
# Press the "Bookmarks" button (with a star icon).
# Tap the "Desktop Bookmarks" folder. -
I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them. I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone. I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added. So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them? It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

I can't sync any new songs to my iPod, when i plug it in my computer I don't see the iPod icon on iTunes, please help.

When synching, itcomes up with an error message saying it can't find all the songs. When I check, library has songs listed but with a "!" bubble next to them. When I click on them they play. What am I doing wrong? This happens every time so I click them and it sorts them (boring with 200 odd). How can I prevent this?
Once you successfully add you iTunes library to iTunes Match, you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store on your iOS device and turn on iTunes Match. Your iTunes Match library will then appear on your iOS device.
