HT1347 Import a CD on NEW iTunes

I'm trying to import a CD onto my iTunes library on the new iTunes. How do I do that? I've already tried the website and the help button, but I couldn't find anything.

Swimmer,
A few details of ripping are different in iTunes 11.  See the latest document:

  • How do you import songs into a new iTunes library from a Touch?

    I downloaded iTunes on a new PC laptop but, I'm unable to import the songs that are on the Touch, to the new iTunes library.
    The songs that are on the Touch are all iTunes purchased songs and these songs are based in a iTunes library that is on the old laptop that no longer works. iTunes on the old laptop cannot be accessed and there was no cd-dvd back up done for this library.
    When the Touch is connected to iTunes on the new laptop, the songs on the Touch do appear in a music folder under the device heading which is fine but, because these songs can't be imported into the new library, they cannot be backed up as far as I know.
    Otherwise, everything regarding iTunes is working as it should be on the new laptop.
    Since I'm dealing only with iTunes purchased songs, iTunes, and a Apple device, there must be some way of adding the songs from the Touch into the new library.
    I've done a Google search about this and any of the suggestions I've tried, haven't worked.
    The OS on the new laptop, is Windows 7.
    If someone can offer some help on this, it would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Your suggestions worked.
    Had to do the authorize step first and then I was able to re-download the songs into the new library.
    Thanks

  • I can't import files into the new iTunes 11. Why?

    Since downloading the new iTunes 11, required for the new iOS 7, I can no longer import files into my iTunes library.
    When dragging and dropping the files, nothing happens.
    When importing them via the iTunes menu. Nothing happens.
    I've tried adding them to the iTunes folder "automatically add to iTunes library". Nothing happened.
    I've had the new iTunes for one day, and it doesn't work.
    Can somebody please help me?!

    Sorted. Sorry.
    The files did not have album name / artist name etc... etc.... Had to find them and type them manually.

  • Where is the import button on the new itunes to transfer itunes library to new computer?

    I cannot find the import button anywhere. I am following the posted thread found on the support forums but it has not been updated since the new iTunes came out.

    Hello gyang94137,
    The resources below will provide an overview of the new iTunes 12 interface.  The Quick Tour, from the Help menu, will also help you acclimate to the new design.
    Here's the specific information on how to repeat songs from the iTunes Help online:
    Play songs - iTunes Help
    http://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/12/#/itns2989
    Shuffle or repeat songs
    Do any of the following:
    Turn shuffle on or off: Click the Shuffle button
    Shuffle is on when the arrows are blue.
    Shuffle albums or groupings: Choose Controls > Shuffle > Albums (or Groupings). iTunes plays the songs in the order in which they appear on the album or in the grouping, and then chooses another album or grouping at random.
    Repeat all songs in the current view (for example, a playlist): Choose Controls > Repeat > All.
    Repeat the currently playing song: Choose Controls > Repeat > One.
    Turn repeat off: Choose Controls > Repeat > Off.

  • Can't import old folders into new iTunes on new computer

    Morning, all -
    I got a new computer and restored all my old folders on it, music included.
    When I downloaded iTunes again, I was surprised to find that a) it didn't just import my old music files, and b) I'm unable to do so even manually.
    I've tried dragging and dropping the music folders - individually and as a group - into the new iTunes folder (iTunes Media now instead of iTunes Music), dragging folders directly into the iTunes window, and importing folders through the menu bar. None of the options work. I don't get an error message, it just sits there and doesn't do anything (which is even worse than getting an error message, which I could at least then track down to resolve).
    It's getting frustrating - it's proving to be a lot less user-friendly than it should be, and for what I would think is a relatively common situation.
    Any insight on getting this thing going would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks, Chris -
    The problem here was that while I'd thought my entire music collection was stored by an online backup service prior to wiping my harddrvie, it turns out that such ISN'T the case. Hence, all the music's gone. So when I did the restore of all the data from the service, then fired up iTunes, while all the music SHOULD'VE been put back in its original filing system (and so, migrated to the new iTunes folders cleanly), that didn't happen. Took me a couple of days of frustration before realizing that while the folder/file structure of all the music was retained, the music itself wasn't. Hence the lack of initial migration, and the reluctance to import any folders manually; the cupboard was bare.
    All of this, however, has led to yet another problem. It's related, but a different topic, so I'll start a new thread on it...
    Thanks again.

  • How to i import music from the new itunes to the iphone5

    i recently upgraded my iphone4 to iphone5, i used iclloud to back up everything but my music, all my music is on itunes (the new itunes - i had to download the new itunes because of the phone) i have tired several times to sync my phone to import my music onto this new iphone but its not working.
    i have authorised the computer
    i tried to import my music with itunes match - this didnt work
    i have switched itumes match off
    i tried to sync automatically - this didnt work
    i also tried to manually import my music and this didnt work either
    i dont know what else i can do... can anybody help?

    iTunes will transfer the purchases made from the iTunes Store from your iPhone to your computer. It treats all other music syncing as a one-way street, to comply with copyright laws (wont sync stuff not purchased on iTunes from your iPhone to your computer).
    But, you can import the other songs from a computer backup or rip them from a CD again. Then sync them to the new iPhone.

  • HT201272 Import iPod music to new iTunes download

    My old laptop with my iTunes library crashed. I downloaded iTunes to a new laptop. I can not get my older iPod Nano to sync with the new iTunes download and import my older music. Is there anyway to import the old music from my iPod to the new iTunes download?

    You can transfer itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

  • Cannot import album art since new Itunes version

    Since last update, I can no longer import picture files of any type as album art.  Any thoughts?  The file comes in as a black background.

    I am having the same issue. If I close itunes and open with a new CD already in the drive, it will find it. But once that CD has been imported and ejected, itunes does not find the newly inserted CD and there is no command to tell itunes to "look" in the CD drive

  • Import from ipad to new itunes

    I have a new computer, PC and installed itunes. How can I import all music, photo and videos from my ipad?

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases (if your account is authorised on it) via File > Transfer Purchases. For music purchased from elsewhere or copied from CDs (and videos from elsewhere) you will either need to find a third-party program for your computer that can copy them off the iPad or copy them from your old computer (copying between computers) or from your backup and into iTunes (File > Add To Library).
    To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page -  on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard.
    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer, so you would be better off copying them from your old computer via (for example) a flash drive.

  • How do I sync my iPhone 4S with a new iTunes library without losing data?

    Hi,
    I have been using an iPhone 4S for a few months now. Yesterday my PC crashed and I had to reboot the whole system.
    So, obviously I had to reinstall iTunes.
    Now, when I am connecting my phone with iTunes, it is informing me that my phone was synced with another iTunes library and if I sync it with this one, it will erase all data and do a fresh sync with the current library.
    I have alot of important data, photos, contacts, messages, music on my phone now. I can't do without that.
    How do I sync without losing my data? ? Help!
    Tarun

    can't if you do not have access to the old library (the usual workaround is to backup the old library and import it to the new itunes)
    for important data...
    sync your existing contacts with icloud, your text messages will not be disrupted, music will sync with whatever music you have on your new itunes, photos shoud still be in the camera roll (I would sync them to photostream before you sync, just in case).   Any photos on your phone that are not in camera roll or photostream... if you lost those pictures with the computer crash I would take screen shots (lock button + home button at the same time) of each photo so they show up in the camera roll.  App data may or may not be lost.  In my experience, it depends on the app.  Some of the apps recognize your apple ID and sync data over the internet with servers, some do not.  I would take note of important data (such as passwords in a password keeper if you have such an app) just in case if you lose that data.

  • Replacing playlists from iPhone into new iTunes on new computer

    My computer crashed. I was able to recover my itunes from the hard drive of the old computer and import them into the new itunes I've downloaded into my new computer. However, I have playlists on my iPhone which I want to put into the new itunes in new computer. Is there a way to force the new itunes to recognize existing playlists on the handheld device so as to avoid having to recreate the various play lists?

    You cannot do that.  All you can transfer is the music you purchased in iTunes.  To do that, plug your iPhone into iTunes, and choose File > Device > Transfer Purchases from the iTunes menu.
    The rest of your music will have to come either from your old computer's backup or the original sources (e.g., CDs) that were used to supply iTunes on the old machine.

  • Please help - how do I import music from my ipod into a new itunes library?

    Hello
    I would very much appreciate it if someone could tell me how to get the music from my old ipod mini into the new itunes library on my new laptop.
    The mini was previously sync'd with my old PC which died so my files are only present on the ipod. Upon loading itunes, the software is only letting my sync the ipod providing I wipe it (obviously not desirable...)
    Thanks for any support, Andy

    Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" as you already know will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iRepo Mac and Windows
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • How to burn songs from one itunes account to import into a new itunes acct

    I have set up seperate playlists for my children under my itunes account. However, my son is now older and receiving itunes gift cards and we want to set up his own itunes account but don't want to loose the songs we have purchased for him under my itunes account. We want these songs to still be available for him to sync to his ipod so we think we need to burn the songs to a disk so they can then be imported into his new itunes account. He doesn't want to loose track of his itunes money nor do I want him to be able to purchase songs using my itunes acct credit card info without my knowledge, therefore, we think we need to set up a new itunes account for his personal use. Any guidance would be appreciated!

    Not necessary. If you want to copy song files to a new computer, copy them to a USB flash drive, and then from the flash drive to the new computer.

    He should definitely have his own iTunes library, be it on the shared computer or on his own computer. As for a separate account in the iTunes Store, that is really up to you, depending how the family shares.
