Can't import my mp3 file on my computer at work

can't import my mp3 file on my computer at work but the same format will successfully import on my computer at home.  Only difference is that work runs win 7 32 bit and home win7 64 bit.
can anyone help on this
regards,
Aron

iTunes seems to be quite fussy and may refuse to play/add MP3 files other palyers accept.
If you have the CDs you could try resaving them. Also some tag editors claim to have repair abilites. For example this one:

Or there is a repair tool here:

I haven't tried these myself and it is always a good idea to work on copies of files if you are experimenting.

  • I can't import my Mp3 files

    I'm coming from a PC over to Mac. I have a whole bunch of MP3 that I played on my PC but when I try to import them into iTunes on my Mac nothing happens. No errors or anything, just nothing happens.
    Here is what I've tried. I took a thumb drive and copied some of the songs on to it. I created a folder called Music on my Mac HD. I then tried simple importing into iTunes by going to File | Add to Library | selecting my files | click Open. No errors, no messages....but the files don't show up in my iTunes Music Library either.
    I then tried copying them directly to the Macintosh HD | Users | My User | Music | iTunes | iTunes Media | Music | Artist folder. Same thing, no errors, no message, no files copied.
    Any suggestions? I'm extremely frustrated with this. My frustration level is already high because of the differences between PC and Mac. This is only making me question my jump to Mac even more. At least on a PC I would get an error message so I would have some kind of clue as to what the problem is. Mac, I get absolutley nothing.

    The headers on the problem tracks may be corrupted or nonstandard. This can happen with some MP3 conversion or import utilities, and iTunes is very picky about headers. If you search the web for "mp3 repair" you'll find a number of repair tools. Here is a one I've seen mentioned:
    Mp3 Validator Mac version
    I haven't tried it myself, not having ever had problem MP3s, so I can't attest to how well (or indeed if) it will work, but it would be worth a try.
    Note that just dragging tracks to the iTunes folder will not add a track to iTunes. Other than the Automatically Add to Library folder, iTunes has no folder-watching capabilities.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can i import an mp3 to a Notification Ringtone under the "Sound Settings"?

    how can i import an mp3 to a Notification Ringtone under the "Sound Settings"? (i can do it to "Phone Ringtones" easy, but not Notifactions)

    This might work as well and will allow drag and drop of mp3 files. This is written as if the phone is connected to the computer.
    In the sd card, check if there is a folder called media. In the media folder verify or create a folder called audio. Within the audio folder create the following folders: alarms, notifications, and ringtones. These should be typed exactly as written. Copy or move the files into the folder you want them in. Disconnect the phone from the computer and let the remount the sd card. Now go into your notification or ringtones list. The files you put into the individual folders should automatically be there.
    I know that this works on the Eris and I got the method back when only the eris and droid 1 was available. I just can't remember exactly where I got it. Hopefully it also works for the Droid 1.

  • I can't import my iTunes files into pages, how can i fix the privileges problem?

    when i try to import any mp3 file into a pages document, i get an access privileges error saying it is either corrupt, damaged or "can't be used" because I don't have access privileges. This has happened since I moved my iTunes library to an external drive.  Anyone have any solutions?  The privileges on both the library folder, and all its files are set to read and write for sharing and permissions.

    If you do not have done so, set the "Ignore Ownership" flag on the external drive. YOu can set this flag from the "File > Get Info" panel for the drive.
    How is your external drive formatted?
    Can other applications open these mp3 files? QuickTime? Do they play in the Finder preview?
    Do the filenames contain special charcters?

  • Can I import WMA DVD file to itunes?

    Can I  import a WMA file (audio) to itunes (or how do I change the file name to mp3) ?  I  ultimately want to  download it to my ipod.  Or is there another app that I can work with (WMA player(?) Thanks for any help!

  • I can't import certain sound files.

    For some reason with flash cs6 I can't import specific sound files. There is nothing different from them and other files that do work. It says "couldn't import (file)" and "one or more files were not imported because there were problems reading them" Please help, my deadline is in a few days!

    What is the file format of these problematic sounds? It may be that these sound files are set to an unusual sampling or data rate. If the files are in mp3 format, try changing the bit rate mode to constant, if it is not that already. Also look at the data rate of the file. Make sure that it is a "normal" rate like 44100, 32000, or 22050 Hz.

  • How can I import an ibook file back into iBook Author?

    I exported an ebook from iBook Author thinking it is the equivalent of saving the file.
    I did not save the file, I only exported it and than exited the program.
    My active file is vannished.
    I need to make some adjustments to the ebook, but can not bring it back up.
    Is there a way that I can re-import the iBook file back into iBook Author?
    When I open iBook Author and try to open the exported file the program does not recognise the ibook file...
    Thanks for your help!

    Check for previous versions of that book in iBA....even if not saved.
    You can dig into the .ibooks file by changing the suffix to zip, but you'll have to manually extract what you can from assets you find. Please only do this with your own books.

  • How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?

    Hi,
    How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?
    Thanks.

    you can use file/import but that would be a mistake.
    you should "load" your swf, not import it.
    if you want to load it and need help, are you using as2 or as3?

  • How can I import iPhone Garageband Files to Mac Garageband?

    How can I import iPhone Garageband Files to Mac Garageband? I've found lots of threads about this but no direct answers/how to.
    Thanks

    With the latest build of GarageBand on the device, move to the My Songs view, tap the Edit button at top right, select the shaking song you want to export, then tap the sharing arrow symbol at top left, tap iTunes, then GarageBand.
    Connect the device to iTunes, select it in the left-hand column, then select the Apps tab. You should find the exported file in the File Sharing area of the GarageBand app and from there you can copy it to your computer, then open it with the GarageBand application.

  • Can't import .mxf video files in Premiere CS5

    Hi all!
    I've just installed Premiere CS5 and imported some .mxf files to a project. But premiere just recognizes the audio tracks, it don't recognizes the video one.. it's like it was a simple audio file.. and i can see the video outside premiere.. anyone knows why is this happening?
    With cs4 i never had this problem.
    Thanks in advance!
    André Inácio

    Assuming you're not using the trial version :
    if you can't import XDCAM EX files using the Media Browser, which will only import what Premiere needs, then there is something wrong with your installation.

  • Can't import MPEG-2 files in FCE HD

    I can't import MPEG-2 files into Final Cut Express HD. Before I bought the software, I took an MPEG-2 file to the Apple store and they imported it just fine. This is why I decided to buy the software. I know it can work, I just don't know why it won't work on my Mac. Anyone have any ideas?

    Well, I figured if I talked to myself long enough, I might figure it out. I did. I had to buy the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback component in order to import these files into Final Cut Express HD. I have the video in FCE HD rendering. If there was another way, I'm waiting to hear.

    I'm creating an epk and I need to add a bio to the menu.  Can I import the text file or do I need to retype the bio somewhere?  What is the best way to proceed?

    Electronic Press Kit.
    Usually in the form of video outtakes, movie trailers, cast and crew interviews. Basically, the stuff that gets bunged onto commercial DVDs as extras or ends up on late night TV "Making Of..." shows.
    To answer the OP, you want a button on the menu that leads to a still image, or series of them, set up as a slide show. You can copy/paste the text in DVD Studio and then add formatting via the Text menu. (Highlight the text and right click to access formatting controls). Or do it in a graphics application using the appropriate video image preset.
