How do i move a song from download to my itunes library

how do i move a song from my downloads to my i tunes library

Look in your iTunes Media folder and find the folder "Automatically Add to iTunes."   Then just drag your new downloaded file into it.
Assuming the file is in a compatible format for iTunes, any file you drag into "Automatically Add..." will be immediately added to your iTunes library.  (Or, if iTunes is not currently running, the file will be added the next time you start iTunes.)

  • How do I move a song from Music to Tones to make it my ringtone?

    In my Itunes Library, how do I move a song from Music to Tones so I can make it my ringtone on my iphone

    Right mouse click the song in music library you want to create ringtone and choose “Get Info”
    Choose “Option” Tab, Check “Start Time” & Stop Time” of the track you want to make into ringtone and put in your start time and end time (Max 40 secs duration), then click OK
    Right mouse click the mp3 again and choose “Create AAC Version”
    You will see a copy of song with same name appeared but with 40sec duration only. Now drag the song onto your desktop and you will see the name is now xxxxxx.m4a.
    Change the file extension m4a into m4r from the desktop
    Delete the 40sec m4a file from the music library (You must do this step or Itune will not accept your new m4r file).
    *Important - Now uncheck the start & stop time of the original song so that you can play back full length.
    Now, drag the m4r file from desktop to Library
    Click onto the Tones under Library, and you find you ringone file.
    Note: Just in case you cannot "Create AAC version" from Step 3, go to top menu, click "Edit", "Preference". Under "general" Tab, click "Import Settings", make sure under Import Using that "AAC Encoder" is selected.

  • How can i put my songs from my iphone to itunes on my laptop without replacing it with the content of the music on my laptop?

    how can i put my songs from my iphone to itunes on my laptop without replacing it with the content of the music on my laptop?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Have you failed to do this?
    If so, not good, then you may be able to purchase third party software to extract the music from your iphone.  This is not supported by Apple.

  • How do I import just PART of a song from a CD into iTunes Library?

    I am trying to get just a little bit of one of my songs from my CD into iTunes Library so I can use it on a website. I do not want the entire song. Can this be done?

    No, not as far as I know.
    You can, once imported, change the 'Start Time:' and 'Stop Time:' (Get Info, Options tab) and convert it, using the converter of your choice.
    The copy will have the length between start and stop times.
    Beware of copyright issues before putting (parts of) songs on a website.
    If you own the copyright, it's no problem of course.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you delete a song from a playlist in iTunes?

    I feel stupid asking this question but how do you delete a song from a playlist? right clicking doesn't give a menu option to do it, and neither does the file menu. The highlight/delete option doesn't work either.
    Also, I've ended up with several copies of the same songs in my library . Can i delete the excess tracks in one go without highlighting them?
    Thanks,
    Dom

    Option-delete will remove a selected track from a playlist AND the library. Delete will just remove the track from a regular playlist.
    Yes, you need to highlight all the songs you want to delete. Sort your library by song title. This should put all the dups together for easy highlighting and deleting.

  • IPod Nano 3rd generation: Only plays songs recently downloaded to my iTunes Library

    iPod Nano 3rd generation (Version 1.1.3) for Windows
    Any song that I download onto the iPod shows up in its library, but when I try to listen to the songs, they won't play.
    The only songs the iPod will play are those that have just recently downloaded onto my iTunes library.
    If the new songs aren't on the iPod, then when I try to play a song, the "now playing" screen shows up, not showing any songs, and the playlist says "playing 1 of 0"

    Hi LeviBC,
    It sounds quite frustrating having your iPod only play certain songs, I am quite sure I would be unhappy in similar circumstances. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
    If you are having issues with your iPod nano (3rd generation) not playing some of your music, I would suggest troubleshooting using the steps found on this page -

  • How do i get my music from icloud to my itunes library

    how do i get my music from icloud to my itunes library

    Download it in iTunes from your purchased list, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.
    If the music is on your phone, another option is to authorize your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in iTunes, Store>Authorize This Computer), then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.

  • How can I move my songs from an XP PC to a NAS?

    Hi there.
    I had an old XP machine, that was holding all my MP3 songs, no DRM. Over the network, my whole family had access, everybody was using his own iTunes for his iPod. So everybody had his own "C:\Users\XXX\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media" database. Worked great.
    My MP3 songs were on an USB drive, connected to the XP. Now I want to get rid of the XP machine, and connected the USB drive to a NAS.
    On all PC's I was using an alias, drive "M:".
    I set up the NAS to offer me the MP3 files also on a drive M:.
    So far, so good. If I now start iTunes, it needs 5 Minutes, until I can listen to music, But not to all! Some of them show "no longer available, do you want to search them?" But after some more minutes, they are available.
    Any idea? (My "customers" are increasing pressure on me!!!!!)
    Rgds, Uwe

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your devices sync with a photos folder you will need to copy this over and update the settings on the photo tab to point to the new location.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.
