Cannot import music into my itunes account

i get the following message whenever i try to import music, which i have purchased, into iTunes "you do not have enough access privileges"
I am the administrator, i went to iTunes info, selected my self, gave myself read and write privileges and made myself owner of the account. Why can't i import?

It's pretty much as simple as selecting all, then a drag and drop into your iTunes library:

I cannot import music into my iTunes or import cps, getting error (-50). HELP!! been dealing with this for 2 days

I am going crazy. Got a new 2tb time capsule and have moved all my music to it and thought I was finally successful (though I have somehow lost some songs and recovered some...though some still cut off right at the end??) but now my biggest issue is itunes will not allow me to import any music, cd or downloaded files. I get the message when importing a cd "error occured while importing the file "song name" An unknown error occured (-50). I get the same error when trying to add downloaded music files also. I am really getting frustrated, itunes did not use to be so difficult to maintain. If we figure this out maybe someone can also help figure out why some songs are cutting off. I have researched this for a couple of days and unfortunatley am not finding much help. Thanks!!

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

I cannot import music into itunes

I use the request "add folder to itunes" but the files do not appear in my library. Neither does the request "add files to itunes". I am using windows and have the newest available version of Itunes. What can I do to successfully import multiple folders into itunes?

You don't import files into the iTunes Media Folder. You import into iTunes. Post your iTunes issues in the iTunes forum:

You mean like transfer purchases from his account to yours? No, there is no way to do that.

Open iTunes and go to "my computer" . Open your music file or any other file in "my computer" that contains music . Keep both iTunes and "my computer" open and drag the music from "my computer " into your music library in "my computer".

Possibly. Media Go supports a variety of music formats, some of which can be imported in to iTunes and then synced on to an iPhone, however some of its formats cannot be imported in to iTunes.
See http://mediago.sony.com/enu/supported-file-formats/ for a list of formats supported by Media Go. iTunes for Windows supports MP3, AAC, WAV, and can import and convert WMA files as well. However iTunes does not support ATRAC, or FLAC.
Furthermore, if some of your music has been bought from an Internet music store it might be procted by DRM. If so it cannot be imported in to iTunes.
To do the importing you would either drag the music files in to iTunes, or tell iTunes to open them. See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1347

HT1449 how do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

How do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

An "iTunes account" is an online account you use for buying music, like a bank account. An iTunes collection is the media you see when you open iTunes. Which do you mean?
If it is two computers, it would also help to know where these are located. Are they on the same local network? If they are, try Home Sharing (and you have control of both and you aren't just trying to get music fro your computer to your friend's computer in another state). If they are not, you'll have to use an external hard drive or flash drive.
Is this on a PC? Your computer information says Windows but you posted this in the iTunes for Mac forum.

Do you have Logitech gaming software installed on the PC? If so, perhaps try the suggestion from the following post:

Is it possible to import music into iPad without using iTunes?

Do any of of you know whether or not it is possible to import music into iPad, like when you can import pictures, without the use of iTunes ( I don't have a computer)? I have music on my phone and on USB flash drives. Thnx

If you are in America then you can download your past iTunes music purchases via the store (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519). But no, you can't import from flash drives (the camera connection kit can only import photos and videos) or from an iPhone.
