Help, I can't import my CD songs to itunes for Windows

Help, I can't import my CD songs to itunes for Windows.
My computer crashed. All my songs on CDs were titled by numbers "01", "02" etc. So I have many songs on various CDs titled "01" for example.
When I've tried to import various CDs, it seems like the different songs having the same names are confusing itunes, and my song tracks are getting mixed and muddled.
What can I do? Thanks for any help.
Gateway Windows XP

Because the wmv format is not supported by iTunes.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Purchasing songs through itunes for Windows

Hello,
I'm trying to purchase songs through Itunes for Windows...
I've recently moved, and Itunes hadn't been working for a while but I thought it was just that I needed to pay off my credit card.
I have paid off my credit card, and was attempting to buy music through Itunes.
It keeps telling me my security number isn't valid, but it's the number on the back of my credit card where they say the security number should be.
Any idea how I fix this?

I just fixed that today... so I'm not sure what I'm supposed to use for Itunes, as the credit card company JUST got my current address

How can I make the newest version of iTunes for Windows run faster?

I know I'm not the only one when I say that iTunes is by far one of the slowest programs on my computer. I'm running Windows 7 and running the most recent version of iTunes for Windows. Does anyone have some tips to make it run faster and smoother? I have Genius and Ping disabled, but I'm not quite sure what else I can do.

The newest version of iTunes should install if you are runnig 10.7.
Do you get any error messages?

Can't import XDCAM files(.mov) in Premiere for Windows

Hello.
I have some problem using XDCAM file in Premiere Pro.
Actually I captured the XDCAM file(.mov) from MovieRecorder, which is the ingest software for Mac..(http://www.softron.tv/products/movierecorder.html)
The XDCAM file is opened in Premiere Pro for Mac.
And I can play the file in QuickTime player for Win but I can't import the file in Premiere for Windows.
How can I import the XDCAM(.mov) recorded from Mac in Premiere Pro for Windows?
Do I have to install any codec or program?
Please let me know any advice.
Best regards,
Donnie Kim

Any suggestions would be appreaciated.
They have a website with support and a forum. https://www.videocopilot.net/products/action2/
Looks like cool stuff.
They list compatability with Premier Elements. Perhaps if you post a request there, you will find someone that has been down the road before you with the combination of the two products. They may also need to know if an adjustment is necessary for PrE11.
Good luck!

Can't import a single song into itunes

I was trying to import some of my old cd-singles into iTunes, and the column next to the name of the song where the check box should be is not there. I have to import the whole cd and then go back and delete the songs I do not want that *****... Please advise. iTunes 10.2.2 on a mackbook pro 2.4 2010

In iTunes 10.5, if you go into Preferences, under General check "Show list checkboxes". This worked for me.

Can you check/uncheck multiple songs in iTunes for syncing to iPod?

In a previous reply to this question, the answer given was that you can use Command apple key to uncheck or check groups of iTunes songs for syncing.
Actually this does not work.
Apple Commmand only gives you the possibility to check or uncheck the ENTIRE list of iTunes.. unless I am completely mad.
There must be a way to select say 5 songs from an album and check/uncheck them all at the same time. So that you can make a fresh selection of songs each time you sync to an iPhone or iPod
I simply cannot believe that iTunes is so dumb that this option is not available...
ie what one needs to be able to do is highlight x number of songs at a time and then check or uncheck them as you go through the iTunes list to make a fresh syncing selection
I hope this can be answered
best

Once you have all of the selected items, RIGHT CLICK (or alt click whatever) one of those highlighted items and select either CHECK or UNCHECK SELECTION.
This is EXACTLY the point at which I get stuck - what is the actual key command for Right Click - it is not Alt Click or any combination, and looking for his in the iTunes help does not yield a result.
Please give me that actual key stroke combination to effect this last operation: I have always been able to select multiple tracks in the way you describe with Shift - but how to actually CHECK and UNCHECK a selection.. once the tracks are selected
Would much appreciate the answer to this

Cannot import videos mp4/m4v in iTunes for Windows 7.

I've been trying for days to import a few mp4 and m4v videos to my iTunes on a pc running Windows 7.
I have the latest iTunes and the latest Quicktime installed. When I try to import theses videos, I get nothing and they do not appear in my library.
I tried uninstalling iTunes and Quicktime and reinstalling them. I've searched the forums, and couldn't find anything similar to this.
I played the same videos on 2 other computers (On my MB Pro running OSX Lion and on a friends computer running Windows Vista) both running the latest iTunes and Quicktime and all the videos imported and played flawlessly.
I'm out of ideas here...Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Also, when I try to play theses videos through Quicktime, I get an error -50 (Unknown error). But not on the other machines.

The first thing I would try is Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist. I've also seen reports of people compaining that the Music section of iTunes doesn't list all their content. For some reason adding a new track such as the current iTunes Single of the Week is proposed, and even confirmed, as a solution, though to be honest I can't see why it would make any difference.
If you make a smart playlist that should match your recent addition does it show up in that?

Can´t restore unlocked iPhone 4 on iTunes for Windows 7

Pre-used iPhone 4. Got it from my sister, who unlocked it. (Still, the settings on the phone - Settings/General/Information- still mention the previous provider.)
I got a new microSIM card - different provider- and I´m finding several problems to restore it as a new phone on iTunes.
1) Can´t update iTunes:
My iTunes is set for automatic updates. But it´s been a while that it no longer gets updated on its own. When trying manually - checking for updates- I get the following message: "the iTunes update server can not be contacted". My internet connection is fine. Re troubleshooting, i´ve modified the host file, refreshed DNS... still not working though.
2) Locked iPhone, enter passcode on phone. ?
When connecting iPhone to iTunes, either turned on or off, this message shows: "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "name" because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
I do not know which password it is referring to. There´s no 4digit security code to unlock it, I deactivated it.
What does it rmean? Where should I type what?
3) once step 2 is done, Restore as a new phone.
According to the steps that I am supposed to follow, iTunes should recognize my turned off iPhone as in "restoring mode" (turn off completely, connect usb to computer, press start button on iPhone while connecting the other end of the usb cable... Apple logo shows on a black screen. Open iTunes just then, and it´ll recognize the phone is in Restore mode). It is not happening. What should I do? Are my instructions even right?
Just in case it helps, I´m using Windows 7, iPhone 4, my previous provider is Orange - Europe- and the current one Vodafone. I have an iTunes account, my iTunes works perfectly when syncing my iPod touch - except for the updates-... Software on iPhone is updated - iOS 7.1.1- ...
Many thanks in advance!! :-)

Sorry, now the message has changed to "itunes cannot connect to the iphone "" - does not recognize my name-because an invalid response was received from the device"

Why can't I buy HD movies on iTunes for Windows?

Hi,
Was hoping someone could help me with an issue I'm having trying to purchase HD movies on iTunes using a Windows 7 system.
When trying to purchase the movie in HD, I get the following message:
The thing is, I was able to buy 3 HD movies previously, but over the last few months, it hasn't been working. When I close the above window, it takes me to the system requirements, which I think I have.
Windows System Requirements for HD content:
32 or 64-bit version of Windows 7; Windows XP and Vista do not support HDCP
iTunes 10 or later
2.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or faster processor
At least 1 GB of RAM
A video driver that supports HDCP (you may need to check with the manufacturer to determine if your video driver supports HDCP)
A display that supports HDCP with a screen resolution of 1024x768 or higher with a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI)
Here are my system details:
Windows 7 Home Premium
Dell Inspiron 537S
Pentinum (R) Dual-Core CPU ES300 @ 2.60GHz 2.60 GHz
4.00 GB RAM memory
64-bit Operating System
iTunes 10.4
The only ones I'm not sure about are the last 2 bullets. I called Dell and I was told I didn't need a new monitor, but just a video card. I didn't trust the representative's answer too mcuh.
Does anyone know what I'm missing to be able to purchase HD movies?
If it helps, the movie I was trying to purchase was Transformers: Dark of the Moon
Thank you!

Do you have?
A video driver that supports HDCP (you may need to check with the manufacturer to determine if your video driver supports HDCP)
A display that supports HDCP with a screen resolution of 1024x768 or higher with a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI)

How to delete duplicate songs itunes for windows?

How to delete multple duplicates of songs on Itunes for windows?

Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to. There are other ways to deal with deal links alone, but those won't preserve that information.

Can anyone help me import over 3000 songs into iTunes?

I can't "find" over three thousand songs on my computer and back-up hard drive. When I open my library it lists many songs but there are exclamtion points next to most. I fiirst tried Apple support common problems and none of the remedies solved my proble. I am not even sure how many iTunes files I have between my laptop and back-up hard drive. Sure could use some help? When I try to play a song from the libaray with an excalmation point it offeres the opotion to find the location. I of course can do this but it will take me for ever to do one song at a time. Thanks.

Uga, this is a link from Scott Patrie in the iTunes for Windows forum that I think may help resolve the poor sound issue.

Help! Can't save to disc/backup my iTunes! NO OPTION to save OR back up to disc my iTunes Library appears in the toolbar when I select 'File', then 'Library'. Just 'Organize Library...', 'Export Library...', 'Import Playlist...', and 'Export Playlist...'

Help! I can't save to disc OR backup my iTunes Library! iTunes support instructions are to simply select 'File', then 'Library', then select 'Back Up to Disc', but when I try to the only options that appear are 'Organize Library...', 'Export Library...' then below those are 'Import Playlist...' and 'Export Playlist...' (which appears in the list, but I cannot select). No option to save my library appears at all. Just those four. I've had no problems syncing, playing, adding or purchasing with my account and my iTunes version is up to date. Can anyone tell me what the problem is and what I should do so I can save my library?

See iTunes for Windows- Moving your iTunes Media folder

To import all songs on the CD, click Yes in the window that appears. iTunes starts importing the CD.---I am using a Dell and can't import the CD I need because the window doesn't automatically pop up. How do I fix this? Any thoughts?

I am using a Dell and can't import the CD I need because the window doesn't automatically pop up. How do I fix this? Any thoughts?

You could try my script ConvertFormat and see if you like the results. Would be easier than inserting the CDs and correcting the tag info again. Just be aware this is a one-way trip. Once you've thrown away some quality to shrink the files you can't get it back without going back to the source. You may better off investing in a bigger drive.
If you just want to squeeze more on the iPod you can use the built-in iTunes option to convert files to a lower bitrate as they are added to the device.

Can't Import mp3s and wmas to itunes

hi,my problem is that there are some mp3 and wma songs i have on my mac but when i try to put them on my library or basically try to listen to them on itunes nothing happens.i drag and drop them into library or manually import them but itunes just doesn't respond i even tried to manually open the directory music>itunes>itunes music>automatically add to itunes and dragged these mp3s into it but it just keeps ignoring them and throws them into a directory called 'not added'.can anyone help me?

iTunes for Mac (unlike iTunes for Windows) cannot convert WMA files. You will need to use another Mac program, such as EasyWMA, to convert them into an iTunes compatible format.
