Error message when trying to import a CD into iTunes

I get an error message when I try to import a CD into iTunes that says the disk cannot be found. I recently requested to uninstall Tune-up because I kept receiving annoying messages to purchase the software. It looks like Tune-up is deactivated, but now I can't import music. Any suggestions?

Without much to go on I think your drive is having problems.  It may be something minor such as dust which could possibly be removed using a drive cleaning disc (computer supply store or CD store), or it could be an irregular error in a laser, or tracking, or loose cable, or...
One way to eliminate any iTunes possibility is if it is consistently doing this with a particular CD then try an alternative ripping tool such as XLD or Max.

  • Error message when trying to import Quicktime movies

    All of the sudden, I'm getting this weird error message when trying to import various Quicktime movies. I've never seen this message before:
    File Error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown
    Any thoughts why this might be happening? Any input would be appreciated.

    I now see that two of them have been encoded using the AAC, Sorenson Video 3 codec which is not one I've seen before so I suspect that would be it.
    The other one I'm having trouble with is encoded using Integer (Big Endian), Animation. I know I've seen the Integer (Big Endian) codec before so do you think that because it's animation that's a problem? I imported several other uncompressed files that were encoded with Integer (Big Endian) that worked fine so that's my suspicion.
    Tom, you've always been very helpful on these boards for my questions. Thank you so much.

    Error message when trying to import CD into itunes.  "Error occured while converting the file 'name of song' The required disk coannot be found"

    Hi Grigsby9,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. This error usually appears when your iTunes Media folder location is incorrectly configured in your iTunes Advanced preferences. Let’s check these preferences to makes sure that iTunes is point to a folder that exists:
    Locate and organize your iTunes files - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/ht1391
    Find and change the iTunes Media folder location
    You can change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer.
    1.Mac OS X: Choose iTunes > Preferences.
    Windows: Choose Edit > Preferences.
    2. Click the Advanced pane.

  • I Get an error message when trying to import cd's

    I keep getting an error message when trying to import cd's - "You don't have write access for your media player"
    I already tried going to the itunes media folder and unchecking the "read only" box but it didn't help.
    I recently changed computers but since then I've copied cd's to my itunes folder with no problems. Now I get this message.

    Try a couple folders up - a parent folder's permissions can cause problems with a child subfolder.
    And don't just rely on the read-only box. Go to c/users/username/music, right-click and get permissions, go to the security tab and make sure your username has full control and ownership.

  • I receive the follwing error message when trying to open my ipod touch/itunes "the itunes libary.itlfile is lockedon  a lockdisk or you do not have write permission on this file. How do I resolve this problem?

    I receive the follwing error message when trying to open my ipod touch/itunes "the itunes libary.itlfile is lockedon  a lockdisk or you do not have write permission on this file. How do I resolve this problem?

    Repair iTunes Security Permissions
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Securitytab and click Advanced. Use the Change Permissions... button grant to your account (or the Users group) and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to Replace permissions entries... which will repair permissions throughout the library. When complete switch to the General tab, click in the Read-only check box to clear it, then click Apply.
    If you don't have the option to change the permissions then use the Owner tab and Edit... button to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges. Tick the option to Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
    Repeat with the media folder if it isn't stored inside the main iTunes folder.
    If you've brought over the library from another computer you may also want to remove any "mystery" identities (S<string of dashes & digts>) that have come over from the old computer...
    The images above are from Windows 7. Hopefully the system isn't too different in Windows 8.

  • Error Messages when trying to install, uninstall or run iTunes 9

    I get the following error message when trying to Install iTunes:
    The path C:\DOCUME~1\Frank\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP206.TMP\iTunes.msi cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.
    I search my entire computer for the file but it's not there.
    Then, when I try to uninstall the iTunes and start the install from scratch I get another error:
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable"
    Catch-22, I can't install or uninstall and when I try to run iTunes I get:
    "The action is only valid for products that are installed"
    Very frustrating but I'm stumped and I don't know how to proceed. Any help would be very much appreciated.

    wooooooooo!!! got it working again!! having spent the last 6 hours..no joke six f*cking hours trying to sort it ive finally got iTunes back!!
    ok here is what you need to do:
    go to the link below and download the Microsoft Windows Installer CleanUp Facility.
    http://www.locksleynet.com/2009/06/09/missing-itunesmsi-problem-resolved/
    once you have downloaded it, install it and run it from the start menu. once its up and running remove everything to do with iTunes (so iTunes itself, quicktime, bonjour......the lot). Dont worry about removing iTunes completely, all the music is still there when it works again trust me!!
    ok once you have removed everything restart your computer, im not sure if this is a must but i did it.
    next download quicktime from the apple website (go to the 'downloads' tab near the top. download and install quicktime and restart your computer so the new settings are put in to place ( i think it asks you to restart anyway).
    go back to the apple website, 'downloads' tab and download iTunes itself. install that bad boy and you will be up and running with all your library intact!
    Hope it works for you mate!

  • Error message when trying to import photos into Bridge CS5

    Hi, when trying to import photos from a card reader into Bridge CS5, I click "get Photos" and get the following error message: "cannot obtain all files from this device. Please ensure the device is connected properly, or that the battery is charged". It imports a small selection of the images from the sd card but that is all. I'm currently using a Windows 7 desktop computer with plenty of ram.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi station_two, thanks for your quick response.
    I can confirm that its not the card reader/cable, usb port, defective sd card or the computer itself. I have already eliminated all these potential culprits through trial and error using different several ports/cards/readers and even a different computer (although not into bridge).
    I am able to copy the photos from the same card/card reader into Lightroom on the same computer (incidentally, when using Lightroom it uses the term 'Import photos'!)
    I am using a number of Panasonic Lumix Micro 4/3s cameras (GH1/GF1/GX1). The sd cards have a combination of RAW and JPEG and the problem exists whether using 4GB or 16GB cards. I have plenty of space left on my hard drive and as stated, I'm running a fast desktop PC (Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS) so I'm certain this is not the issue.
    Could this possibly be a problem with the cache?

  • "Entitlements are not valid" error message when trying to sync ipa file from iTunes to iPad

    Is anyone else getting this error message, "Entitlements are not valid",  when trying to sync .ipa file from iTunes to iPad?
    The issue I'm having is getting the ipa file that was built by the 'Adobe Flash Packager for Iphone' installed into my iPad.
    So, I have a swf file that works and was able to publish it into the Android Market.  I then compiled and build the same flash project with the Packager for Iphone into an .ipa file.  But when I try and install this .ipa file into my iPad to do my testings, i'm getting the error message. 
    I would like to test my ipa file in my iPad device before submitting it to the Apple Store.
    Any help would be appreciated. thank you.

    Developing for iphone can be amazingly complicated and frustrating.  (even before you start coding).  The process of having to create a Certificate, to approving the Certificate, to Assigning the deviceIDs to the certificate, to creating the AppIDs, to creating the provisioning profiles and then creating the .p12 file... is just too tedious. 
    I solved the problem of the "Entitlements are not valid".   The AppID i had set in the iPhone Developer Portal did not match that of the AppID i had set in the Adobe Flash CS5 -> Publish Settings.  (ie. com.yourdomainname.yourappname).  After I re-entered my AppID and compile, i was able to sync the .ipa file into my ipad. 
    I wish the error message had been a little more descriptive.  Could have saved me a whole day.
    I hope this helps others.  But my guess is, if you don't set the 40 character device ID correctly, or the email in the signingcertificate correctly, you'll get this same generic error message.

  • When trying to import a cd into iTunes

    When I import a CD into iTunes,
    after a few songs, the download freezes and my computer no longer recognises my drive d.
    The D drive (DVD/CD rom) seems to have disappeared.
    Since the computer does not know that I have a D drive, the DVD/CD rom will not work.

    Ok, obviously no one has a definite answer for this, but I found several different suggestions on the net. I tried all of them, and none of them have worked for me. So I still cannot import CDs with iTunes. Instead, I am now importing CD's with Windows Media Player, which works just fine, then adding all of them seperately to iTunes so I can have the music on my iPod. it takes less time to transfer this way, than to force quit multiple ties over several hours to maybe get one CD imported.
    In case the suggestions of others work for you, I did a google search on "iTunes freezes when importing CDs"- it brought up a lot of pages, with a lot more complaints than answers , but the easiest "fix" was to turn off error correction in your prefences. Since I never had error correction turned on, that didn't help me. The other most cited "fix" was the following link on Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421 . Though I never get an error message (iTunes just freezes), I tried it anyway. Still no success.
    I hope this helps some!

  • Lightroom Error message when trying to import photos.

    I have a Canon 6D and Apple laptop with latest versions of software that I am aware of. Tonight I tried to import images from Micro SD card (inserted directly into laptop) but each time I am getting an error message stating that it can not read my files. It has previously downloaded files from this camera and memory card. The error message is generally giving the number 337 but has also given 555 and 1. I am not sure what has changed and do not know how to fix it. I have tried leaving the SD card in the camera and connecting it directly to the laptop via the cable and it gives the same message. I have also tried googling these error codes but can't make out specifics of the problem and how to fix it.

    The “Cannot be Read” message when using LR to import directly from the card or camera means the DESTINATION you have specified in LR is not writable by LR.  LR first copies the files to that destination, then LR tries to read the files from there, and it is the second step, the read, that gives the error.
    Check your destination and make sure it is where you intend LR to be importing the files to off the card, and make sure it is writable.

  • Receive an error message when trying to import any videos from iphone to iphoto on my desktop.  Help?

    I have 6 videos on my iphone, varying in length from 24 seconds to 11 minutes, that will not import to iphoto.  I have tried to import them as a group and individually but get a message that 'there was a problem accessing the file.'  I had no difficulty importing over 300 photos from the phone to the desktop.  Any suggestions/help would be appreciated.  Thanks.  Anne

    See if you can use Image Capture to upload the video files to a folder on the Desktop and then import from there into iPhoto.
