Cannot add files to itunes after 10.0.1 update

After downloading and installing itunes 10.0.1 update, I cannot add files to my library. Anybody else have this issue? I have tried dragging/dropping files and file->add new files to library. I'm using a PC with windows xp

Same issue, on an OS X machine.

  • Cannot add files to iTunes - iTunes won't add files

    I have just purchased a new Macbook Pro. I then used an external hard drive to transfer music files from my desktop PC to the Macbook Pro. I copied the files directly to the iTunes Music folder on the Macbook, and then through the "Add to Library" option in iTunes added the entire "iTunes Music" folder to iTunes. I then noticed that certain files did not show up in the iTunes Music list. I verified that the files had been copied to the iTunes Music folder on the Macbook Pro, which they had, but they will not add to the Music list in iTunes. The problematic files will however open with the Quicktime player. I have also tried the following:
    - dragged and dropped files to iTunes (result was simply nothing. The files did not show up in iTunes).
    - Uninstalled and Reinstalled iTunes (didn't help)
    - Cleared the "Music" list in iTunes and then re-added all of the files again. (same files still would not show up in the iTunes Music list)
    - Tried moving the files from my desktop PC to the Macbook Pro with a different external hard drive. (still no luck).
    I have found other posts with the same problem but have not found a solution. Please help!

  • Cannot add files to iTunes library on Windows 8

    I've recently purchased a new Acer laptop with Windows 8.1 installed and have the most recent version of iTunes installed, but upon loading it, I am unable to add any files. This isn't just with mp3s, but with tones, apps and books.
    At first, I thought it may have been because all my files are stored on a NAS drive, but iTunes doesn't even recognise the drive despite it being mapped. Even trying to drag-and-drop the files from my desktop doesn't add them to my library.
    I've trawled the internet for a fix for this, but there are none, though I see a lot of Windows 8 users are experiencing the same problems. I have uninstalled and re-installed ALL Apple software and devices multiple times now, to no avail. Anyone have any ideas?

    See Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows.
    Note the current version of iTunes has trouble syncing iOS devices if the applications are on a NAS UNC path. Accessing the library/media folder via a mapped drive letter works.

  • Updated itunes to 10.4.1.10 on Windows XP. Now cannot add files or album covers. please help

    Installed latest version of itunes when prompted yesterday. Using hp compaq laptop running Windows XP. Now cannot add files to library or add albulm covers. Tried to play new mp3s from external drive, that I was trying to add. got message saying "Itunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error7 (windows error 1455)"
    Have also had a couple of  "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" forced shutdowns. Cannot find files to reinstall and itunes is telling me I am using the current version.
    Infuriating!!! Can you help me please?

    Asking me what I think is not what really matters here. What do you think? Do you want to wait for another update to iTunes in order to sync or backup your iPad again? That could be weeks down the road - no telling when it may be updated.
    Why dont you go through this support article and see if any of this stuff helps you? The article is for Windows users.

    Here is something very simple to try. Quit iTunes and restart your computer. Then restart your iPad and try to sync/connect again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • I recently updated to itunes 10.4 and now i cannot add files to my library. Will there be another update to fix this issue, because on google others are experiencing the same problem.

  • Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up new computer with newest version of itunes

    Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up on new computer, only songs which tansferred were songs bought on new computer after set up, tried to sync songs and it deleted old songs from ipod.  How can I get them back on ipod??  They are showing in music library on itunes still.

    If the iPod database gets corrupted, it will add files to "Other" instead of where they really belong.
    Restoring the iPod will erase this database and recreate it.
    And if I do this, won't I just have the same issue when my iPod is re-updated to the most recent version again?
    No, it shouldn't. This is why you Restore the iPod. It erases the corrupt database.

  • How do I restore a file to iTunes after I deleted it using Keep File?

    I wanted to shorten the list of visible files in my laptop's iTunes Music folder without losing the actual music.  So I selected Keep File.  Now I want to bring some of that music back. 
    How do I restore a file to iTunes after I deleted it using Keep File?

    Assuming the track file is still there, either use the Add To Library command under the File menu in iTunes and select the tracks you wish to add back into the iTunes library, or find the track files on your hard drive and drag them into the iTunes window.
    Regards.

  • Forgot to tick -  Add files to itunes media folder

    Hi, im new to itunes and have recently downloaded my cd collection to itunes ( 7000 odd tracks worth)
    Ive just realised that i never had the "add files to itunes media folder when adding to library" box ticked.
    I would like to know if im am still able to add all my music to the itunes media folder now that they are already downloaded and in my library?
    I would like to know this because i would like to use some songs in windows movie maker and when i search for the music using wmm,  i can find the itunes media folder but there is no music inside.
    Can anyone help on this matter ,
    Thanks scott

    In iTunes parlance a file is consolidated if it is located inside the iTunes Media folder, and by extension unconsolidated if outside the media folder. The option you refer to, if enabled, ensures that all tracks added to the library thereafter are consolidated, though it won't affect tracks that are already part of the library when you make the change.
    Having the files consolidated means that iTunes can, if you wish, also update the file and folder names to reflect changes that you make to tags. A fully consolidated library where the media folder is a subfolder of the main iTunes library folder is also portable making it much easier to backup, restore, move or migrate.
    You can consolidate your entire library with File > Library > Organise Library > Consoldiate files, or selected files by right-clicking on them and clicking Consolidate files.

  • Cannot add music to iTunes

    I've just put some new music on my external hard drive, and now want to add it to iTunes. I've tried both the "Add folder to iTunes" and "Add files to iTunes" options, as well as dragging and dropping both the folder and music separately from windows explorer, but nothing works. iTunes will however play the music on my external hard drive that I've added previously.
    I'm using the latest version of iTunes (10.0.1.22), and am running Windows XP SP2. This is driving me crazy, can anyone please help?

    running iTunes as ADMINISTRATOR in WINDOWS 7 will shut off the drag and drop music feature, quit iTunes and run it as a regular user NO admin option checked in the properties and compatibility tab
