How to import real media to iTunes?

I have heaps of .rm and .rmvb videos that I'd like to play on my iPod. I figured the easiest way to do it would be to import the files to iTunes and then convert to iPod format. But I can't open the files in iTunes. I have the latest version of it too. Is there something I can do to get real media onto my iPod?

iTunes does not support those codecs. You're going to have to scour google for a conversion program that will allow you to import the files into iTunes as a supported format (mp3, aac, wav, etc).

How to import multiple songs into iTunes

Hello there...
I am fairly new to iTunes and am becoming frustrated with this particular issue. Prior to using iTunes, I used Kazaa, where whenever a song was added to My Shared Folder, Kazaa would update the library instantly. I want to have the same sort of thing with iTunes. For example, one of my friends filled my USB drive with music today. When I came home and plugged it into my computer, I dragged and dropped all the songs into my iTunes Music folder. I expected them to appear in the library, but they're not there. I don't know how to add them all to iTunes without importing them one by one. I suppose in this case I could import my entire USB drive folder, but what if someone sends me a handful of songs as an email attachment or over MSN? How do I import those?
Thank you!

iTunes for windows doesn't "Watch" folders and files for changes like other programs. You need to goto File>add folder to library so it will "Piont" iTunes to where the music is located on the system.

How to import Flac files into itunes

Hi there,
the title say it all. How can I import Flac files into Itunes?
I have a lot of them. I click onto add to library select the flac file, click on open and nothing happen.
Many thanks for your help.
regards

Hello CESNET the best bet is to try http://blowintopieces.com/fluke/ I myself don't use Flac files but to any audiophile it's important to hear sound at it's best. Also WAV or AIFF & ALAC you will need to use http://tmkk.hp.infoseek.co.jp/xld/index_e.html to convert into ALAC.
P.S. their is also a simple FLAC player but can't remember it one more thing converting FLAC to WAV will not give you full TAGs. Best bet is to try just one file you've copied ether straight into iTunes or convert & see what's best for you.

How 2 Import a CD into Itunes? I only get first few Secs of each track!!

I have just bought an Ipod and am having trouble importing my Cds into Itunes !!!
I seem to have the 'intro function' on in Itunes so I can only get the first few seconds of each track !!
Does anyone know how I can import the complete tracks and how I turn this Itunes intro setting off ?
Thanks Owen0069

hi Owen!
let's try checking up on some of the simpler possibilities:
You can't import or play music from an audio CD in iTunes for Windows
these resources might be helpful with that:
Updating the drivers on your Windows PC
toonz: Where to find firmware for your CD/DVD drive
... but if no joy, post back with your itunes "help > run CD diagnostics". one of the clever folk might be able to spot something in those.

How to convert real media files to quicktime for iPod

I want to know how to convert a real media file into a format that is recognizable by my iPod. Do I need to convert it into a Quicktime movie? And if I already have quick time movies on my computer, will they play on my iPod without any need of conversion?
Thanks

MP4 is the format you need. You will need a third party program to convert it for viewing on your ipod. See this link
http://forums.ilounge.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=123067
There are many freeware programs out there for convertering. Beware of people that will direct you to a site where you have to pay for the program. There are many Spammers on this forum that will try to have you buy a particular program. Do a search for free conversion programs and you will find many.

How to import items from another iTunes library?

I have have home movies in my iTunes on my iMac which my wife wants to import into iTunes on her Macbook. Both macs have Home Sharing turned on. She has my library showing under Shared in her iTunes and she can see my entire library. She selects the item she wants to import but there is no way to import it. It cannot be dragged and there is no Show menu at the bottom of the iTunes window as iTunes Help says there should be.
She is using OSX 10.6.8 and I'm using 10.7.2. We both are using iTunes 10.5.
Please explain how to do this import.

Here is a screen shot of what you should be seeing once Home Sharing is turned on and the remote shared library is select.
On the left-hand sidebar you should be seeing the remote iTunes Library with the house icon under the Shred category. When you select it, all the media from the remote shared library should be listed in the main iTunes windows. Along the bottom you should see the 'Show:' pull-down menu on the left side and the 'Settings…' and 'Import' buttons on the right side.

How to import MP3 files from ITunes

Hello,
I am new with Mac and GarageBand (GarageBand'09-5.1)
How can I import, from my iTunes library, a mp3 files in GarageBand, to use it.
Thanks for clear answer

I would suggest by starting with a Loop. When your project is up look at the bottom right of your screen. There are 3 buttons. The one of the far right is a Music note and film frames. Wen you click on it, you should see your entire itunes library. You can search through it or type into the search bar to narrow your search. Click and drag into the project area.

iTunes movies are in Quicktime format, so you'll need to Google for a convert to either XVID, DIVX or a supported format (if such a thing exists!).

How to import a folder to iTunes backup using iBackupBot?

Hi,
How do I import a complete folder using iBackupBot?
I have the folders Documents and Library of an app, from a backup I made using another solution. So I’d like to import to the app folder in iTunes backup, the whole content of these two folders. This way I'll be able to restore using iTunes.
The thing is, I can’t create any directories/subdirectories and can only import files. I’m using the latest version downloaded from the site: http://www.icopybot.com/itunes-backup-manager.htm
Thanks!

How to import music file from itunes to fcp?

"turn off unlim rt"

or "lower pref for real time audio track"
I'm new to fcp and am stuck. can't find help in the books either. any way to just lift a music file straight from itunes to fcp.

The "media drive" isn't a mac thing...it is a video editing thing. This is a drive that is separate from your main computer's hard drive where you store ALL of your captured footage, audio, video elements, graphics, still photos...everything you use in your video project. You should NOT be using your system drive for this.
This drive, on the low end, can be a firewire drive. 7200RPM at least.
You need to copy the music files OFF of the CD and onto your media drive...and you really should be organized about this. Organization is a HUGE part of video editing.

How to import multiple folders into itunes at ones

I have 40 gb of music that i have transfered to my new macbook pro, They are in thousands of folders and praying that there is a way/ app to do this. Thanks

Don't move them then consolidate. That won't add them to iTunes.
You can...
File > Add to library and select the top level folder with the music
Drag the top level folder to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/Automatically add to iTunes.
FYI: I keep a shortcut of the /Automatically add to iTunes/ folder on my desktop. Then just drop stuff onto the shortcut to add to iTunes.

How to import WMA files into iTunes to burn to CD?

My coworker gave me a voice recorder that records in WMA files. I cannot simply drag the audio file into iTunes like I have from other recorders. I need to get the audio into iTunes so I can burn to CD. Any ideas?

Problems -
EasyWMA is not free.
Switch looks fine, but after installing the wma plugin as prompted, and feeding it the first batch of .wma files, it crashed.
I'm now 'borrowing' an EasyWMA.
Pros : simple to use. you can have it process your entire music folder at once. adds songs to itunes right away.
Cons : limited functionality! E.g. there's no option for VBR (variable bit rate), so I set it to 256 fixed. E.g. when having it run through my entire music folder, there was no option to restrict it to wma files - it also worked my flac's, for which I'd already found a better solution (fluke).
Sigh Hate to complain, but hey, this stuff would be easier on Windows
