Converting from Rhapsody to iTunes

I have multiple files I have purchased with Rhapsody and they do not seem to convert to iTunes. I can load these files onto my iPod through Rhapsody but if when I load more with iTunes these Rhapsody files will not play. Any suggestions on what to do?

Does anyone know a converter from the new iTunes TV/movie file type to one that will work on my 5th generation iPod video?

I just tried to load some new TV shows from my iTunes onto my 5th generation iPod video and it says the video format is not supported. I currently have dozens of TV shows and movies on the iPod, I just wanted to put some new stuff on there. So I need to know if there is anyway of converting the new iTunes video format into one that will run on my 5th generation iPod.
Thnaks in advanced.

When you drag a movie from the Media Browser to the Time lIne in GarageBand, you will see a pop-up "Extracting Audio".
The Movie and the audio file will appear in separate tracks. You can copy the audio region from the sound track to a different track to keep it safe and then hide the Movie track.

Converting from WMP to itunes - some albums are not imported as one

I am importing my whole music collection. Some albums are imported into itunes and show up as single albums as they are supposed to. Some show up as multiple albums - particularly if they have different artists for different songs. The track numbers are correct. For example, in one "album," the correct song is labeled track 6. In another "album" (same real album - different artist), the correct song is labeled track 2, etc. These all show as single albums (as they should) under WMP. How can I get itunes to believe that all albums with the same name are the same album even if there are different artists on different tracks?
Thanks

Here is an article with good examples on that.

Receive message after importing serveral songs from CD into iTunes (latest ver 11.1.5.5)... "Error occurred while converting the file 'songname'. The required folder cannot be found." CD/DVD ROM is no longer recognized until restart.

Consistently receive the following message after importing serveral songs from CD into iTunes (latest ver 11.1.5.5)...

I have the same problem. I recently moved my music from a Vista PC to a new Laptop with an external CD drive. It will copy one song from the CD and it will show in the Music file and then I get the message ' Error importing a CD - Folder not found'. I must unplug the CD drive and plug it back in. I have seen no fix for this problem.

Converting "FLAC" and other Audio Format files from Vuze to iTunes

Good afternoon. I have a Mac Book computerthat I purchased about two years ago. I have ITunes loaded on mycomputer. I use Vuze as a software program to download music and video toITunes. However, it appears that iTunes will not concert "FLAC"and other formats of audio from Vuze. Can anyone recommend what free softwaresoftware program is preferable to use to convert the "FLAC" and otheraudio formats from Vuze to use in iTunes? Thank you in advance for anyassistance you can provide concerning this issue.

I have used xACT in the past, and I now use Max for all my FLAC conversion needs. If you need to tag the FLAC files before conversion, Tag is basic but good.
For conversion inside iTunes you might want to check out Quick Convert from Doug's AppleScripts.

Hi divabuyer,
It sounds like you're trying to convert to Word from within Reader, is that so? Are you signed in to Reader? If so, you'll see your name in the upper-right corner of the Reader application window.
If that doesn't work, please try llogging in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf with your Adobe ID and password.
Let us know how it goes.

CONVERT from iTunes to other FORMATS (AAC, AIFF, MP3, WAV)

Came across a problem in trying to get music purchased from iTunes to be recognized by other media players (Quicktime or Final Cut Express). I found how to get iTunes to export to cd/dvd disks in AIFF format (and other formats).
Steps used:
From iTunes:
Create a new playlist folder in iTunes (under file)
Drop the songs you wished to use into the playlist folder
Go to the iTunes main menu,
select 'Preferences'
select 'Advanced'
select 'Import'
using "Import Using" select the format (AAC, AIFF, MP3, WAV) you desire
Input your CD/DVD disk to burn
highlight your Playlist file in iTunes that you want to convert
select 'File' in iTunes,
select "Burn Playlist to disc"
What you end up with is a CD/DVD with the music files in the format you selected -(I needed AIFF) from there you can use the disk or copy your converted files back into Final Cut or other software for use.
Hope this helps others having similar issues

Have you tried other formats, besides AIFF?
You can only burn purchased music to an
b Audio CD
and the Finder will tell you the files are AIFF. Actually the files on an Audio CD are PCM, but Mac OS 'sees' them as AIFF.
You can't convert purchased music in other formats, because it's protected.

IPod Classic 160GB film library sync problem - trying to sync films that have converted from purchased DVD to mp4 format locally, not purchases from the online store - all other libraries sync perfect - why?

Hello Apple and the iTunes Windows PC users community.
I am trying to sync films that I have converted from purchased DVD to mp4 format locally, not purchases from the online store. The mp4s all appear and play successfully in my iTunes application but will not sync across to the iPod film library folder.
For your information: I am using iTunes 11.1.3.8 on a Windows 7 64bit machine with 500GB hard disk and 8GB of Ram in the UK.
I have restored the iPod classic 160GB three times now to see if it was a hardware problem with no joy. Each time all the music restores properly as do the podcasts and all the items in TV programmes all appear to sync and work fine.
I have also tried to copy films into the TV Programmes to get around it with no joy. They always go to the films section to start with. It is just the Films library that does not sync - all others work perfectly. As a last resort I have uninstalled and re-installed iTunes with no joy either.
I am technically savvy and have gone through the itunes and ipod settings but nothing appears to make a difference - This is the first time I have had to post here as I can usually solve the majority of the ipod anomilies but this one has me flummoxed.
Has the film encoding type changed in the newest itunes update? - Has this happened to anybody else and is it a hardware, software, or operating system problem.

Having uninstalled the current version 11.1.3.8 and loaded and older version of iTunes 10.7.0.21 I can now categorically confirm that the newest update seems to be causing the problem as the films and TV Programmes are syncing perfectly on this older version.
If you are going to do this please dont forget to remove the ' iTunes Library.itl' file as this stops the older versions from running as I've just found out

I converted from a PC to a Mac Mini. I have my PC documents backed up on a DVD disk. I have an external DVD drive connected to the Mac Mini. I want to open them up and save them to the Mac, BUT....when I put the DVD disk in the Mac is NOT reading it!

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your quick response. I should add....it worked before. When I previously inserted the two DVDs into this remote drive, and I went into finder, I could click on the "remote device" line and see all my saved documents (excel, word, etc) on the DVD and open them on the Mac. Now I cannot see them, when I try to open them on the Mac, nothing happens, nothing is displayed. I just re-tested the remote DVD drive with a CD and, no problem, it opened up the CD via iTunes and I cold play the CD. SO......I know the remote DVD drive (it's an LG by the way) is fine, it's something to do with some settings on my mini mac,especially where I could open it previously. I do not remember changing any settings since then.
When I go into system preferences and click on CD/DVD it gives me options of how to open up a music CD (default is iTunes), a DVD (default is iMovie), etc. The problem is my DVD is all miscellaneious files/documents. I just want to be able to see them in the finder. I also tried to open them via microsoft word, from the remote disk and again, it could not open the drive, even though some of the documents were microsoft word documents. Again, I was able to open them previously and the DVD is not corrupted in any way.
Any additional advice?
Thank you!

How to transfer all songs from iPod to iTunes?

Well guys,
To make a long story short, I'm helping out a friend who just converted from a PC notebook to a Mac Pro. A sweet choice, I know...
But he thought that he had backed up all of his music on an external but erased it thinking he had backed up his collection elsewhere. So now his collection of music is lost, except for that his songs are still on his iPod classic. It's not stored in disk mode, unfortunately. It's just synched up normally.
There must be a way to put his songs on his new computer. We've scoured the forums and can't find much. Can you help, please?

For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
Find out how to do that here.
How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

Hello JLGBone,
It sounds like you are needing to transfer your music from your iPod classic to your computer. The following article will help you transfer your iTunes Store purchases:

Any items that are not purchased from the iTunes Store will need to be re imported to the iTunes library manually.

Files converted from m4a to mp3 are not displaying correctly in feed

hi; i recently produced my first show in garageband (after using a bunch of other audio apps in the past), exported to an m4a file, and converted to mp3 in itunes, but it is not showing up as an audio file in my feed.
the feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/wellroundedradio and my blog posting on it is http://wellroundedmedia.blogspot.com
is there something you need to do when converting from m4a to mp3 in itunes to make sure the settings are all correct so it will be enclosed as an audio file? i have tested other mp3 files in the feed and they are working fine.
thx, charlie

greg-
thanks. yes, i think that's what has been so tricky about this. i add a link to an mp3 in blogger, but feedburner doesn't add this particular show as an enclosure, so it's not updating in the feed. can't seem to find where the origin of the problem, though...is it blogger, feedburner, or the mp3 file or...?

Transferring from pc to itunes and ipod nano 7th gen

when i transfer music files from my pc i get the message to convert from wma or mp3 into aac format which is fair enough but often when they appear in my ipod the albums get split into two or more, sometimes 12 albums and also a lot of the titles of the tracks dont appear so that my ipod show blanks under an album or artists name when there are tracks there. any help out there please.

You have a few things going on that are not clear.
You can import your music into iTunes from the iTunes File menu, Import to Library. You can select a folder or a set of tracks. You do not have to import them individually. You can also just drag a folder of music and "drop" it on iTunes.
You can then, if you want to, copy your music to the iTunes folder. You don't have to, but if you want to go to File/Library/Consolidate Library.
If it says that music cannot be found this means that the music file has been moved since it was last played in or imported into iTunes.
To sync your music to your iPhone you can connect your phone to your computer, click on its name in iTunes, then either check "Manually Manage music and videos" in iTunes and drag your music onto your phone, or, what I think is much easier, UNCHECK this option, then click on the Music tab. Select the music you want on the phone, then click Sync.

How I download a Tv series from DVD to itunes?

Handbrake see http://handbrake.fr/ can convert such files to iTunes compatible format. However Handbrake by itself does not copy from protected commercial DVDs as doing so is illegal in many (but not all) countries.
For dealing with DVD protection you are on your own as it is not allowed to be discussed here.
