How do I get all my ID3 ratings into iTunes?

Hi
Have recently moved to Mac from Windows. I have over the years rated thousands of my songs on Windows on various software like Windows Media Player and Media Monkey. Now I have moved to Mac iTunes does not show any of the ID3 tag stored ratings.
How do I import all my ID3 tag ratings into the iTunes database? I cant find anything online.
Thanks

  • How do I get all my songs back into iTunes?

    I had over 1500 songs in my iTunes library. They were visible on my iPhone, iPad, and iPod AND my PC. All my songs are intact on my devices but I only have 181 songs on my PC. When I try to sync my devices, I get the message that all my library on the idevice will be lost and all I will have is 181 songs in the iTunes library on my PC. How in the world do I fix this? It took a long time to add these songs and I sure don't want to start all over again by adding them again. Thanks in advance!!

    The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
    It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

    Right click in windows. Control click on Mac. On the phone in iTunes. Choose "transfer purchases"

    Use your backup copy of your computer.

  • I just upgraded to LR4, how do I get all my LR2 images into LR4?

    I just upgraded to LR4, how do I get all my LR2 images into LR4?

    Images are not "in" Lightroom. Image files are on the hard drive, and the Lightroom edits are in the catalog.
    Lr creates a link between the catalog and the image files on the hard drive.
    So, there is no need to bring images from one version of Lr to the other.
    When you install Lr4 it will find your existing catalog and update it (in fact it updates a copy of the catalog); Lr4 will then "know" where your images are because their location is recorded in the catalog.
    It is the unfortunate choice of the word "import" that creates the impression that images are in Lr like eggs in a basket. Nope!

    "Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
    They will only be where you put them  If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
    The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country.  You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

  • Upgrading OS - How do I get all my music back into reinstalled iTunes?

    Hi. We are upgrading my operating system from Windows 2000 to XP on my computer that currently runs iTunes. I have my entire iTunes folder backed up on another computer. I know I'll probably have to reinstall iTunes after the OS is upgraded. But how do I add all that music back into the new version of iTunes? We won't be replacing the hard drive, so all that music should still be on the same computer.
    When I reinstall iTunes, will it automatically add the music back, or will I have to do that manually? If so, how do I do it? Just go to the "Add a folder" option in iTunes and add the entire iTunes folder? If I do that, my playlists should be restored since I have the .itl file in that folder, right?
    This is so confusing.

    Install iTunes.
    Copy the backed up iTunes folder into My Documents/My Music.

  • I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything how do i get all that back from my itunes account??

    I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything else how do i get the contacts and pictures back from my itunes account?? ive tried restore its like it gave me a whole new iphone thing.

    If you plug in the iPhone to your computer, any contacts ect that you synced with your computer with sync back with the iPhone when it is selected in the iTunes menu under info. Anything that was added without syncing was lost, I'm sorry. A good future solution is to get iOS 5 when it comes out this fall, so you don't need to manually sync contacts, its automatic!
    Best Regards

  • How do I get 'all' my audio books into the Audiobook folder?

    Hi, I'm an iTunes newbie (new touch) and am trying to get to grips with some of the quirks of iTunes.
    I have some audio books I purchased from Audible.co.uk and when imported into iTunes these go into the Audiobooks folder in the iTunes Library.
    However, I also have several audio books I have converted from CD's into MP3. When I import these into iTunes, they always end up in the music folder of the Library. No amount of dragging and dropping or searching of the 'preferences' have allowed me to move these files into the Audiobook folder. Can this be done in iTunes?
    Any help greatly received.
    Regards,
    Glenn

    If you are going to do it this way, I would suggest a SmartPlaylist.
    Highlight all of your audiobooks, go to file, then get info. Now, pick a section to edit (Comments, grouping or genre are the best choices) and enter a tag such as "Audiobook".
    Now, create a SmartPlaylist to only show anything with that particular tag.
    For example, "Genre contains audiobook". Only files with Audiobook will show up.
    Forgive me if you knew how to do this, but I figured as a new user this might be helpful.

  • How can I get all of the music on itunes to sync?

    When I sync my ipod touch not all of the songs in itunes are transferred over.  I have about 30 more songs in itunes than on my ipod.  There are also a couple of songs that are sync but they will not play on the ipod but they will play in itunes.  Is there a way to fix this?

    I'd like to know this as well.  Mine just started doing this.   I didn't do anything any differently and I have rebooted my iPod.   It gets to the determining items to copy part and hangs there forever.  Photos and apps were copied, however, just not songs.

  • Ive had my itunes for different computers. how do i get all my purchased on one itunes

    how do i get my purchased products from one computer to another with the same itune account? i selected the purchased section in itunes. everything came up the first time but not i cant find it! ive been at it for a while now and nothing seems to be working. please and thank you!

    Hello stefdare,
    I recommend downloading the songs from your list of purchased songs in the iTunes Store.  As long as you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase the songs, you will not be charged for the songs.
    You can find the steps to do this under the section titled "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer" in the following article:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • How can I get all my music files into my itunes folder?

    I have tons of music scattered all over my computer in different locations, I want to put all the music in my itunes folder- C:\Documents and Settings\David\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music
    The problem is, is when I move the music to my itunes folder the music I move does not play in itunes. So how can I do this
    Thanks

    Don't move files manually! That indeed causes iTunes to lose track. Use the command Advanced > Consolidate Library. Before you begin, read up on Consoidate in the Help file so you understand what it does.
    When you are done consolidating, you can delete the extras if you wish.

  • How did I get all the duplicates in my iTunes and how do i get rid of them!!

    1000 duplicates in itunes.  How do I fix that?
    ...and how did it happen.?

    Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes does not create duplicates.
    Only the user importing content multiple times creates duplicates.
    Delete the duplicates and stop importing the same content multiple times.
