How do I import a mp4 disc into my itunes library

I have MP4 files on a disc and want to import them into my itunes library.  I have tried to drag them, and then I will see the name in the library, however, the file itself does not download, so I cannot play the file without the disc in my computer.  Please give me some baby step directions to take care of this.  Thanks so much

I had the same problem. I found the solution by accident.
Open the Movie mp4 in Quick Time 10. There is a share button (or click share on the menu) and select iTunes. It will take awhile for the file to be imported into iTunes.

  • How do I import a whole file into my iTunes Library?

    When I try to import an album to my iTunes, it takes all the songs out of the album folder and puts it in the library, and so when i send it to my iPod it goes under Songs>than the tracks but instead I want it to go like Artist>Album>Than the tracks. Does anyone have any suggestions? thanks

    As long as the information on each of those song tags contains the Artist and Album, you'll be able to go to the link you want on your iPod, ie, Artist -> Albums -> Songs.
    It will also show under the Songs menu, but it will also be present on the other menu as long as the iPod and iTunes has all the info present.

  • Import an MP4 movie into my event library...

    I'm trying to import an MP4 movie into my event library...all I get is the audio with black thumbnails. What am I doing wrong?

    Sorry I couldn't help.
    Here is one idea. Get MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5. It is free.
    Open MPEG Streamclip. Drag your MP4 file into MPEG Streamclip.
    Use FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME...
    For Compression, choose h.264.
    Leave everything else the same.
    Then try to import the resulting file into iMovie, same as before.
    If it still does not work, try it again and this time choose Apple Internediate Codec for compression.
    This should produce an MOV file with h.264 inside (or AIC inside).

  • I have an old ipod and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library.  My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else.

    I have an old ipod (it's the very thin oblong one in purple, the one before the one that does video) and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library.  My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else.  I now have an iPhone 5S and listen to music on that, so want to be able to listen to things from the old ipod too.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks very much

    Apple normally does not get involved in handling lost objects like this.  Since a real name is not installed it will be much more difficult.
    You can try contacting Apple support at the US number, assume you are US going to BWI from the listing: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and explain the situation and see if they offer any suggestions.

  • How can I put my mp3 files into my iTunes library? Every time I download a song from a website and try to drag it to my library, it won't add on. How can I fix this?

    Back then when I had the older update with iTunes i never had this problem with trying to put my mp3 files of music into my iTunes library. Now it doesn't want to be put into the library. Once I try to drag the music file to the iTunes library nothing happens, it just keeps showing a cancellation sign with my mouse. So how can I fix this?

    Hi William.
    The problem is probably that the index is corrupt and you need to completely re-create it rather than rebuilding individual mailboxes. I have no idea what the situation really is now after having tinkered with the contents of ~/Library/Mail/, though, so the following procedure may or may not work.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, and making sure that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), try this:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong -- e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down.
    3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see an Envelope Index-journal file there, delete it as well.
    4. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index -- Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

  • I have my itunes media stored on my external hard drive.  On this external drive I have a folder called "TV shows".  How do I incorporate this folder back into the itunes library?

    I have my itunes media stored on my external hard drive.  On this external drive I have a folder called "TV shows".  I previously cut and pasted itunes TV shows to this folder to free up some space.  How do I incorporate this folder (TV shows) back into the itunes library?

    assuming the copy files ... when adding option is checkmarked in preferences > advanced, drag the folder into an open iTunes window while holding option (⌥).

  • HT1349 why when i import a comperlation cd into my itunes library  it splits it into different parts

    hello when i import a cd in to my itunes  library from my collection  it spliys it into differant albums ect   acample my epic cd x3  is split into about 20 alboms

    You either put in a blank CD as roaminggnome suggests, or something mechanical went wrong with your player, damaging the CD.  Check for scratches.
    iTunes has no facility for erasing a CD.  You would have to deliberately do that with a disk or DC burning utility.
