How can I copy a song in iTunes on my Mac to a flash drive?

I purchased some songs from the iTunes store. I want to copy them onto a flash drive to play on another computer that doesn't have enough free disk space to put them on the hard drive. Can you tell me how to do this?

Click song, drag to flash drive

  • HT1391 How can I copy new songs from other sites back to my windows folders?

    I just bought an ipod and downloaded itunes on it and my lap-top, (where I use windows media player.) Today I bought some songs from another website on my computer, but I couldn't find them in the "my music" folders, I signed on to itunes and found them there. I checked, and my preferences for that site hadn't been changed; how can I copy those songs back into windows? Itunes copied my entire library from my computer...

    I'm replying to myself:
    I figured this out; just go to the itunes folder, open it, and then move the song, or album, into that artist's folder in "my music." I thought about doing this, then I read the cautions about renaming, or moving, tracks and hesitated. It worked just fine.

  • I have about 800 more songs on my nano than itunes, due to a crash. How can I get the songs onto itunes from the ipod, or at least get the new music ive gotten since the crash onto my ipod without deleting all the other songs when it syncs?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If you have failed to bakup, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

    You don't.  You sync your devices with itunes.

  • TS4124 Hi, do you know how can I upload inelegible songs from itunes to Icloud. They are songs added from original CDs. Another question would be how can I transfer all the music I have in my Ipod Classic to my Itunes or ICloud as I want to back it up.

    Depends on why it's ineligible.  If it's under 96 Kpbs, try right-clicking on the file and choosing Create AAC Version.  (If you don't see this option, go to iTunes>Preferences, click "Import Settings..." then choose "Import Using: AAC Encoder" and "Setting: iTunes Plus".)  Then rescan your library to see if this version will add to iTunes Match.  Or, after changing your import setting, just re-import the song to your iTunes library.
    If the song is over 200 MB you would have to reduce it's size to make it eligible.

  • How can I view duplicate songs in iTunes 11?

    How can I view duplicate songs in iTunes 11?

    If needed press ctrl-b to reveal the menu bar. Use Shift-View > Show Exact Duplicates to reveal the duplicates. Keep one of each repeated group of files and don't send to the recycle bin unless you are sure that there are multiple files on the disc as opposed to multiple entries to the same file.
    There is also my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. This can preserve ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. which are lost in a manual clean up. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background on deduping and the script.

  • How can I delete duplicate songs in Itunes ?

    How can i delete duplicate songs in Itunes ?

    I have the same problem, where my music library shows duplicates of just about everything I put in iTunes now. It began about a month ago. As far as looking at Date Added, well they are duplicates all put on at the same time. It isn't a matter of the title showing up later, or my having accidentally added the same song twice (say, from different sources or compilations). This is a problem with Apple I think because it just began a month ago and I changed no settings, nor did I do anything else. It just began to happen out of the blue. Anyone know about this?

  • How do I transfer music from itunes on my mac to a flash drive?

    How do I transfer music from itunes on my mac to a flash drive?

    hi,
    it depends from the OS which is installed on your computer. At first you must access your Music folder which contains the iTunes folder:
    Windows 7:
    \username\My Music\iTunes.
    Windows XP:
    \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes
    Mac OS X:
    ~/Music/iTunes/
    In this iTunes folders you can find a "iTunes Media" folder which contains your Music. This Music you can than copy on a flash drive

  • How can I fix a song in itunes?

    Hi,
    I purchased a song and trying to turn it into a ringtone for my iphone 5 (following instructions on the support forum), the original has got messed up- I have one copy of the song that is now three seconds, and one copy that works for two seconds... of the original 3.26!
    When I've tried to download it again from the cloud (by clicking on the cloud button by the song) it makes no difference, just downloads another version for three seconds, and when I've tried going to the original on itunes no more than three seconds of that song will play.
    How can I fix this??
    Thanks,

    Just for clarity, music redownload is part of iCloud which is presenlty only available in the USA as a beta when you are using the latesest iTunes.

    Go to the iTunes Store, on the right side, it should say "Purchased" (it will say NEW next to it). Click on the "Not in my library" option in the top right, and search for it in there. If it doesn't show up, you didn't purchase it (the transaction failed).

  • How can download all the songs from itunes match to an ipad 2?

    I activate itunes match in my Imac, the process of scan and identify the library songs is finished successfully, after that i activate the itunes match in my ipad,  I need download all the songs in the ipad, I select Music Icon and don't appear the (download all) button in the section of songs,  i have to push the cloud button in each song to download?
    I enter in the section of albums and playlist and in this section the button download all appears. How can i download all the songs to the device?

    I just found the answer by myself.  Instead of clicking Cloud icon one by one, highlight all the songs in Cloud (after sorting by Cloud status) and riight click, download.  Now I am getting all the songs back to my local machine.  I will sync my iOS devices tomorrow and just GET RID OF iTUNES MATCH.  To me, it was a disaster.  Worse than their map app.

  • How can i delete unwanted songs from iTunes match?

    With a limit on how many songs that can be uploded to iTunes match, how can i remove songs that i didn't want uploaded to the Cloud?

    Right click on the song on the computer your music is on and delete the song and make sure you check the box that says delete from iCloud.
    If you want to delete the song from iCloud you also have to delete the song from the library that you are syncing from.

  • How can I play the songs in iTunes on my Android phone?

    I am a new comer to iTunes.  I just purchased a couple of songs from iTunes and it plays correctly on my iMac and iPad.  I have following questions and seeking the answers.
    1.  Are the songs sited on iTunes server and streaming when I play the song?  It requires internet connection to play the songs.  Can I download the songs onto my device to avoid internet connection.
    2.  Can I play the songs on my Android phone?
    3.  I have some songs on my iMac and appears in the iTunes.  How can I sync with my iPad (currently not appear in the iTunes of my iPad)?
    Thanks!

    i guess the existance of an app means that itunes for the iphone cannot alphabatize itself.  that seems a little odd, given the new updates.  do you use this app?  i've gotten used to the functionality of the standard music app, and am curious how this one compares in terms of usage.
    thank you for the link wjosten.

  • How can you edit a song in iTunes so that you can separate the part I want?

    Some songs have LONG intros I'd like to edit out. For example, Elton John's Funeral for a friend/Love Lies Bleeding is only available as one track.
    How can I edit out the FFAF part? (at least for the version I sync to my ipod.

    Hey there,
    One option is to change the songs starting time in iTunes. To change when a song starts and ends locate and highlight the song in iTunes. From there, right->click the song and choose "Get Info" from the Menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Options tab and in the middle of the window there are options to adjust the starting and ending times for that song or songs. When you are satisfied, go ahead and hit OK to apply the changes.
    From there, sync the updates to your iPod.
    Hope this helped.

    i have all of my music on my external hard drive, and would like to be able to listen to it on itunes without it copying to the computer.
    go iTunes > preferences > advanced and temporarily disable the copy files ... when adding option.
    from the file menu, choose add to library and select the folder on the external containing your content, or drag the folder to the automatically add to iTunes folder inside the iTunes folder.
    when iTunes has finished the operation, go back to preferences > advanced and point iTunes media folder location to the external so that future additions to your library are put there. also, re-enable the copy files ... when adding option.

  • How do I copy a song to iTunes on a different computer?

    I currently have two different computers (iMac and MacBook Air).  They each have iTunes.  And each iTunes has it's own user account.
    When I bring up iTunes on both computer and click on shared, I can see the other user's iTunes and the songs within.  If I double click on a shared iTunes song, it plays.  So far, everything seems fines.
    At one time in the past though, I was able to drag a song from the shared iTunes library to the local, host library.  It seems like I can't do that anymore.  Did something change?  Is there a preference I don't have set correctly?
    Thanks in advance,
    Leon

    There's Home Sharing and Music Sharing and they are not identical:
    iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4620
    Music Sharing - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688
    Home Sharing lets you copy iTunes purchases to another computer.  Music Sharing lets you stream any music to another computer but not copy files.  If these are not iTunes purchases you will have to manually copy them by either file sharing or copying onto another drive or media (e.g., flash drive).
