Can't import or play tracks from CD in Itunes

Hi,
I am unable to import or play any of my songs from my CDs in ITunes 6.0.2. In the past, I had no problem with this.
I tried selecting a song from a CD located on the ddesktop and opening Quicktime instead and I was once again unable to play the song. The songs in my Itunes library work fine and I am able to play these. Then I inserted an old CD again which is part of my Itunes library already and this time it refused to play or import the tracks.
By the way, a little while ago I had a problem with my MAC and lost my whole Itunes library. I downloaded a program called IPodRip in order to restore my Itunes library from my IPod. Since then I have not imported any new songs whatsoever. I am wondering if this has something to do with the problem I am experiencing now???
Any suggestions anyone?
Thank you

it's relatively common (at least, common enough to be mentioned in troubleshooting documents and i see it reported in posts a few times each week):
You can't import or play music from an audio CD in iTunes for Windows
i don't have an especially good feel for how much this would help with this particular issue, but it might be worth following up on checking for upgraded firmware or drivers for the PC. these resources might be of some help with that:

How can I import a backing track from itunes to garageband? thanks!

how can I import a backing track from itunes to garageband? Just trying to record over it. thanks!

Reveal iTunes in GarageBand in the Media Browser like this:
Use the search field to find your song in iTunes, and drag the song from the m
Media Browser to a real instrument track or an empty space on the Time Line.
Or drag the song from the iTunes Application window to the desktop, and from the Desktop into the Time Line in GarageBand. Unfortunately you cannot drag directly from iTunes to Garageband.

Can't import or play CD's in iTunes?

Don't know if anyone else has had this problem.
When inserting the CD, iTunes would see it & find the track info.
when trying to play or import the CD, the program would just hop down the track list & say it had finished importing.
I tracked the problem down to 'use error correction when reading Audio CD's'in the import settings & disabled it.
Everything now works fine!
I use XP Pro, anybody know if this is a bug, or is there some setting I have to alter in Windows so I can use error correction?
Thanks

Can I play tracks from my iPod via Airport Express on only from my laptop?

I can play tracks from my laptop thorugh my Bose Lifestyle Airport Express. Is there a way to play tracks from my iPod Touch through my Bose system via Airport Express? My Airport Express is set up as a client to my Sky Broadband wireless router.

I set up my laptop to my Bose Lifestyle System via Airport Express. It may be different for MAC but I just downloaded the Airport Express software and followed the on-screen set-up procedure, which includes entering your WI-FI key. I do not have an iPad. You need to select Airport Express in iTunes as your sound media. This is easily switched by an icon in the bottom right corner of the screen. You will need to switch this back if you want to revert to using the laptop speakers.

How can I Import 2 channel audio from a Sony PMW300 camera?

How can I Import 2 channel audio from a Sony PMW300 camera?

Thanks for the reply.
The link to your prior thread is
Audio
I suspect that the issue of no audio for your .mp4 file goes to your conversion method MXF to .mp4.
Please excuse if I am saying what you already know. When you import your video into Premiere Elements (in your case 12 Mac), a project
preset is established, either by you manually or the project automatically. That project preset contains a description of the project settings
for audio as well as video. Unless you select one of the project presets which are described for use with 5.1 channel, your audio in video audio
imports into a stereo project. It is in the export area that you will find your opportunity to customize (if necessary) the settings for audio.
In the project, if applicable to your situation, you can duplicate an audio channel (See Fill Left or Fill Right under fx Effects/Audio Effects).
Please let me ask this to make sure of the details.
If you import your .mp4 with 2 channel audio (derived from your .mxf convert and dragged to Video Track 1/Audio Track 1) and cannot hear the sound....
a. do you see any evidence for an audio file in the Timeline Audio track 1?
b. if you do, how many wave forms do you see, one or two?
c. if you have the audio meters opened while you are playing back the Timeline content in Edit area, do you see 1 or 2 channels and is
there activity in both.
d. when you import the file into Project Assets, do you observe any conforming activity going on in progress bar in the lower right cover of the workspace...if
so, do you wait for it to go to completion before continuing on?
We could also try deleting the conformed audio in the Media Cache Files Folder to force the program to re-conform the audio. See Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks should show you the location of the Media Cache Files Folder whose contents you will be deleting.
Please review and consider, and then let me know if I targeted your question. If not, please do not hesitate to let me know, and I will rethink my reply based
on your response.
Thank you.

In Logic Pro, trying to import a drum track from the bin to arrange area, the 'follow loop' box does not appear in the inspector

imported a drum track from bin to arrange area. It will not follow tempo of the project even though it was recorded in this project. The 'follow tempo' box in the inspector does not appear even though it is present on other tracks in the file.
how do I set up the track so the 'follow tempo' box appears in the inspector?

Don't drag the midi into an open Logic project. The tracks won't set up correctly.
'Open' the midi file with Logic as if it were a Logic project. Then all the tracks will be set up so you can start editing them and applying better saved sounds and instruments, but you'll be at a starting place where you can hear what's going on.

=Troubleshooting CD ripping issues=
The easiest thing to check is if it is just this CD. Try another one. If others work, then it is likely the CD.
Try an alternative ripper such as XLD or Max. Even though you may not want that as the long-term solution it will at least indicate whether the problem is with iTunes or something else.
X Lossless Decoder: Lossless audio decoder for Mac OS X - http://tmkk.pv.land.to/xld/index_e.html
http://sbooth.org/Max/
If other CDs and rippers do not work, it could be the drive itself, or the part of the computer running the hardware. For the latter some have found a SMC reset to work.

If you think it is the drive, you can try a cleaning disc (about $10 from a computer store or media store) to get rid of dust. I haven't had much success with these, though usually I am running some older machine on which I can expect a drive to die after 5 years of use.
If this is a CD burning issue, try a different brand of media.

Firmware Request - Insert music into playlist, or play next while playing tracks from a playli

Zen xtra ( and posibly other models)
Heres the situation:
Ive set up a playlist ( either on my p.c or on my zen) and im now playing tracks from it, however sometimes I decide that I want to add a few more tracks to the playlist, and insert them midway into the list.
However when these new tracks appear in the Selected music list, I can only move them so that they play before the playlist ( at the top) or at the bottom, When I select change order in the Selected music list ( music que). there doesnt appear to be any way in which to intergrate new tracks into the playlist, without disrupting whats being played.
Its possible to select play now on a playlist, then add tracks from the library (add to play) then save the selected music as a new playlist, but this is awkward and it stops playback.
Are there any chances of this problem being fixed in the next firmware update ( whenever that will be)?

I made a petition like this also, it never went anywhere. Anyways I am defineatly signing this one

How can I import an m4v movie from my desktop to my event Library in iMovie?

How can I import an m4v movie from my desktop to my event Library in iMovie? I want to include the m4v movie into another project in iMovie.

When you import DV Stream from tape, iMovie 11 will assume that you are importing raw footage from a camera, rather than a finished movie. It will create a new clip everytime it detects a scene break (the record start/stop button was pressed). These clips will be placed in chronolgical order - not the order they were on the tape.
One way around this is to import the tape into the application that you used to create it. For example, if you used iMovie 6, import the tape back into imovie 6. In iMovie 6, you can export the tape back out using FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME. Choose the DV codec in an MOV container. You can then import this MOV file into iMovie 11 and have everything in the proper order for your finished movie.
Another option is to use FInal Cut Pro X.

TS3989 Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days. After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted. Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.

You can't, natively with the iPhone. The photo sync is one way: computer to phone. To do what you want requires third-party software, like this:

How can i import songs or videos from my iPod to my computer?

How can i import songs or videos from my iPod to my computer?
iTune doesn't seem to be able to get this done...

You can't sync your music back from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the files from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. They will all transfer songs but if I recall, only iPodCopy also does videos.

There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
