Can't get music from desktop to iTunes?

My dad sent me a recording, and I downloaded it onto my desktop. But I can't figure out how to get it onto my itunes? Before you say it, I've already tried importing it, and usually it works when I just drag it in, but it didn't work this time. I've tried a few different ways of formatting (mp3, m4a, aiff), and they don't seem to make a difference. Also, I've tried putting them in the iTunes folder on Finder before dragging and nothing. (the whole process, the folder w/ the artists name, the fold for the album, then the song)

I'm having the same problem, used to be able to just drag and drop, no more.

    Can't seem to make Migration Assistant work. Doesn't ask about or transfer files.

    I just migrated into a new MBP from an old one.
    It did not bring the music over.  Apple's instructions are to use the Home Sharing feature of iTunes.
    Open iTunes on your old Mac.  Select Home Sharing under the Advanced menu.  Sign in.  Do the same on your new computer.  Then when the library appears under Home Sharing on the left-hand panel on your new computer's iTunes, you can select all and Add To Library.
    That's what Apple says, anyway.

    how can I use music from two different iTunes accounts?

    If you mean iTunes Store accounts, there's really nothing for you to do. Just add the tracks to the iTunes library and play them. Music purchased prior to late-2009 will been to be authorized, though. Pull down Store > Authorize... and type the credentials of the Apple ID used to buy the tracks.
    If you mean something else, please describe in more detail.

    seeing iTunes deleted my iPod, how can I transfer music from iPhone to iTunes?

    any itunes purchased music can be transferred from phone to pc via hitting the "transfer purchases" option when u right click on the phone under devices in itunes on the computer when it is plugged in. any non-itunes purchased music is stuck on the phone and cannot be transferred to the computer. u will have to load it onto the computer from the original source or from the old computer.

    I have a desktop an laptop both windows with iTunes on both with same Apple ID. Both have diff music on each But the laptop is sync to my iphone & when I have tried to sync my I phone to my desktop it wiped my music. How can I combine music from my desktop and laptop into my iphone without wiping what's already on there?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Assuming it isn't purchased content from the iTunes Store, then your only way is to put all the music onto one computer and sync with that.

  • How can i get music from my ipod nano to my iphone 4s?

    How can i get music on my ipod nano to my iphone 4s?

    iPods (except iPod touch which is really an iPhone minus the phone) only sync with your computer running iTunes.  So it needs to go through the computer.
    Since you loaded the iPod from your computer's iTunes library, you can just load the same songs from your iTunes library to the iPad.

  • How can I transfer music from iPod to iTunes?

    All of the music on my iPod nano is in my ex-husband's iTunes on a Mac. Now have a Windows PC and want to transfer music from iPod to iTunes. Computer says 'Need to Format disk in Drive E'. Will this lose everything? Not sure what the best way is to do everything but haven't got any way of backing up my iPod at present. Thank you!

  • How can I get music from my ipod to iTunes?

    I have a tablet through work (Lenovo x61).  Our IT group had to wipe the tablet for some new software, so I made sure I had all of my music on my itouch.  Now that I've gotten the tablet back, I'd like to take all of that music (some of it not purchased through iTunes), and put it back on the computer.  I've downloaded iTunes, I've authorized the computer, and I've signed in to my account - but I can't drag the music into the iTunes library and I can't seem to find by looking at my itouch "files" through Windows.  Any suggestions for copying my music onto the tablet/iTunes?  I'd like to be able to stream my music when my husband is using the iTouch for other things (Yetitown!)
