How do I move a .mp3 file I created in my music software to iTunes?

My music software now has .mp3 creation capabilities, with ID tags.  I am trying to insert one file as a test (and the ID tags are filled in).  In my PC running Windows 7, I navigated to Music\iTunes\iTunes music\[new folder] and place the .mp3 file there.  But when I open iTunes, my file does not appear in the list.  I've clicked on all the subcategories to alpha them, but no luck.  How do I install this?  I need to know because I am going to offer .mp3 files with a book I've written, which is being published now.
Thank you!

You need to open iTunes first then drag and drop the mp3 file onto the Music section of iTunes to get the file imported.

  • How do you move dropbox mp3 files onto iphone 5?

    I downloaded some mp3's from yousendit.com onto my iphone and now I can't find them. I thought they would have been stored in my music app, but they aren't there. I downloaded them again into dropbox but I can't figure out how to get them from dropbox into my music folder. Can anyone help out here?

    what a bs ckuan, getting a virus from a mp3?? from a mp3 that is not from an unknown source and already on ur computer??
    its not a "feature", its one of many failures of apple. they try to set new standards everywhere and force u to use their software (itunes) instead of an easy drag & drop.

  • How can I edit a mp3 file and drop it in an iMovie project?

    I wish to edit an mp3 music file so that I can drop a piece of it into an iMovie project. iMovie's audio tools are very rudimentary---one can reposition a music file, shorten it, etc but cannot pick a piece of it to complement a movie segment.
    So I dropped the mp3 file into GarageBand. I deleted the first section of the song, then selected the 16 second piece I wanted to include in my iMovie, using the copy command. Then I pasted the piece into a new GarageBand project screen. The piece wouldn't play, and when I selected "export" the piece neatly went to where I wanted it, but again with no sound.
    So simply: how do I edit an mp3 file (cutting a piece of it) and then save it so I can apply it to an iMovie? Help!

    it should have played, but you can do it easier by exporting just the section you want:

  • How can I import mp3 files that I received in an email to iTunes?

    I received an email (gmail on exchange server, if that is material) containing an .mp3 file that I would like to "import" into iTunes.  I have downloaded it, but I don't know where downloads "go" on the iPhone, so I can only play it directly from the email.  Moreover, it plays in quicktime, not iTunes, so I don't even have the option to save it into a library while/after it plays.  I would like to move this file into iTunes -- how can I do this?
    All help appreciated.
    Thanks.

    The only thing you can save to your phone, using Safari, is a pic, nothing else.

  • How do I move all my files from one User Profile (account) into another? I needed to create a new account and want all of my files accessible in the new one.

    How do I move all my files from one User Profile (account) into another?
    I needed to create a new account and want all of my files accessible in the new one.

    ok, what you're learning right now is 101 unix, which is good. Unix is a good thing
    now: the way unix works, and macos (which uses unix underneath) the files and folders work like a hierarchy.
    the start of that tree is /
    so, if you were to do:
    cd /
    (cd means change directory)
    it will bring you at the highest branch of the file system.
    cd /Users
    will bring you to where all the users are.
    to see whats in /Users you can use your friend ls command
    ls means list files/directories
    so:
    cd /Users
    ls -la
    (the -la here means show all (even hidden) and long format (very verbose))  this flag is very optional.
    you will see
    fred
    user2
    for example.
    if you want to see the desktop of user2 you would change directory to it then list the files.
    for example:
    cd /Users/user2/Desktop
    Note that the files and directory are case sensitive, so, desktop is NOT the same as Desktop, or DESKTOP
    ls -la
    you should then be able to see everything in users2 desktop
    you could have done as well the same thing in smaller steps, for example:
    cd /
    cd Users
    cd user2
    cd Desktop
    this is the equivalent of cd /Users/user2/Desktop
    So, for your file, i don't know where it was, but know that if you log in as user2, it will directly put you in
    /Users/user2
    which most likely the file you had created from the other user was in /Users/user1
    if you copied all the files from /Users/original_user to /Users/secondUser
    most likely yes, all your mail, bookmarks etc would be copied over.
    so in your case.
    sudo chown -R seconduser:staff /Users/secondUser
    should work
    Remember that if you start a path with the character /  it means start from the root of the file system, at the highest top you can ever get.
    so
    cd /Users/fred
    is not the same as
    cd Users/fred
    unless you were in / already
    i know it may be confusing at first but it's actually very logical if you play with it.
    to simplify, think of it that / means C:\  on windows
    you can't go any higher than C:\  (in a way)
    if you're unsure which directory you're currently in, you can always type:
    pwd
    it will tell you where you are.
    for example:
    cd /
    pwd
    this shows  /
    cd Users
    pwd
    this now shows /Users
    cd /System/Library
    pwd will show /System/Library
    cd /
    cd /Users
    cd fred
    cd Library
    pwd will show /Users/fred/Library
    unix can look very scary but it's actually vital and very necessary to do tasks sometimes that would take for ever to do via the windows. This is good learning.
    so for the myfile you had created, i can't tell you where it is, at the time you created, if you can do a pwd command you'll know the path,
    ls -la  (this shows all the files where you are)
    if you see myfile in the list
    do a pwd
    whatever is return, the real location of the file would be:
    whatever pwd returned / myfile
    I hope that makes sense.

  • How do i move a video file from the theater to the library for more editing? New version of iMovie.

    How do I move a video file from theater to the library for additional editing in iMovie. It is a new iMac so i guess i have the newest version of iMovie.

    Hi hilldw61,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you have added a clip or project to iMovie Theater but would like to continue working on it. When you upload the project to iMovie Theater, the original project remains in iMovie where you can edit it further. 
    Add, remove, and play clips and projects in iMovie Theater - iMovie Help

  • How do i move a data file from my pc to my ipad

    How do I move a data file from my computer to my ipad? It is my product catalogue and it would help if it were on my ipad.

    Plug the iPad into iTunes and you can use file sharing to move it into an app that supports file sharing and that document format.
    see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094
    Or, use an online storage service (iCloud, dropbox, box, google drive, sugarsync, etc) and upload the file to that.  Then on the iPad, from within the app you plan to use the file with, link to that service and download the file.
    The app will again have to work with that file type, and support the particular service you used.

  • How do I move a downloaded file (from YouTube) to GarageBand so as to separate video from audio, then send audio to iTunes?

    How do I move a downloaded file (from You Tube) to Garagband - so as to separate video from audio (which I will send to iTunes)

    Create a new GarageBand "Movie" project, then import your movie into GarageBand, by dragging it from the "Movies" tab of the Media Browser into the Timeline. GarageBand will split the movie into a video channel and an audio channel. Delete the video/movie channel and use the "Share" menu to send the audio channel to iTunes (assuming you have iLife '11 GarageBand)

    Everybody's wrong wrong wrong. You don't need garageband. Select the song, go to info. You need to select a start and stop time for the song that can't be any longer than 40 seconds in length. Then in advanced mode you convert the song to acc. once done locate the file on the computer. it should end in .m4a . Change the a to an r so it reads .m4r Drag the file to the desktop, double click and it ends up in ringtones folder.

  • How do I transport an MP3 file to play elsewhere

    I'm trying to save MP3 files of a national talk show host- Bruce Williams, in a way that I can play these files in the car. Each of these files is 1 hour long and somebody in the forum said that I could only get 1 hour saved on each CD, which is right. He also said something about being able to save these files in a way in which they could be played on an MP3 player. In that case I could get 10 hours. I really no nothing of MP3 and was wondering if somebody could help with this. Is there a device that could play these files in the car, so that several people could hear at one time. Is there a boom box or portable player. Also how do I get files from my Mac to the player? Thanks for your help.

    MP3 is not a type of disk, rather it is just a type of file that you would burn to a regular CD (using iTunes or Toast or the Finder). The MP3 files take up less room than regular audio tracks on a CD. But they are burned to a CD in the same way (using your computer's CD burner). As mentionned above you have to make sure you have an MP3 compatible CD player to play them in. Most new portable CD players will do this. Just check the packaging - playing MP3s is an advertised feature.
    Edited to add: you could also skip the CD burning route altogether and buy a disk-based MP3 player, such as an iPod. You would then transfer your MP3 files (or other types of music files) to the device using USB. You would then listen to the music through headphones, or through your sterio speakers or your car speakers (accessory cable needed).
