HT1473 can't import my .flac music

why itunes don't import or play my .flac music

iTunes does not support FLAC format. You need a third party conversion software to convert FLAC to MP3 or M4A format then add them to iTunes library.

How can I import files FLAC in iTunes?

Hello to everybody.
I would like to import files .FLAC in iTunes and then in my iPod. How can I do it? I see that iTunes doesn't support this kind of files.
Can you help me?
Thank you very much

Stefano,
No. That is frequently asked, but in fact, iTunes has never supported FLAC.
Over the years, there have been a few attempts to enable iTunes to play FLAC by means of plug-ins, such as those from Xiph. However, they (1) are not reliable or well-supported, and (2) allow iTunes playback but do not allow iPod syncing. So don't waste your time.
If you have FLAC files, you need to convert them to an audio format that iTunes can play, such as Apple Lossless or MP3. Add the converted files to your iTunes library, but keep the FLAC originals on hand for when you are using a more capable player.

I just bought a new Classic 160gb because i ran out of room on my Classic 80gb. Can i copy all the music from my 80gb Classic on my 160 gb and still maintain seperate libraries----------Thank You ---Tom

Yes. The music on the old iPod will need to be stored in your iTunes library on your computer though for you to sync it over to the new iPod. See this article for different ways to handle multiple iPods with one computer.

Can't import songs from music library to itunes!

I have no problems importing songs from audio cds into itunes, but it won't recognize any of the files that i have in other folders of my computers (in mp3 format). and when i select 'import' and these songs, it just doesn't do anything. any suggestions to help??? thanks!

Most of them are files burned from an audio CD onto another computer, and then saved onto a USB device and then transferred onto my computer (I no longer have the original CDs, hence the roundabout procedure). some of the files however, are simply from 'my music' folder that i had previously burned onto my computer before installing itunes. i've checked the status of all the files--and none are protected. any suggestions? thanks!
Reknath, where did these files come from? If there
were downloads from other websites, they are probably
protected & that's why you can't get them into iTunes.

Can't import or purchase music to itunes

Can anyone help - I'm having problems downloading music from itunes store and also importing albums onto my itunes. This problem has just happened recently. I get error message 5000 when trying to purchase from itunes saying I'm not authorised to do so, I get the same non authorised nonsense when I try to import. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

iTunes for Mac (unlike iTunes for Windows) cannot convert WMA files. You will need to use another Mac program, such as EasyWMA, to convert them into an iTunes compatible format.

Can I use garage band to edit my own original music from itunes? Or can I import my own music straight from a C.D. or Flashdrive?

Can I use Garage band (garage band '11) to edit my own original music that I have stored in my itunes library? Is it even possible to edit your own music with Garage band ? And how would you import your songs into it? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

How can I import all the music files on my computer directly into my iTunes library?

I recently cleaned my computer of all junk files and this resulted in a loss of all my music from my iTunes library. All of the files are still on my computer but I can only find them one at a time is there a way to speed up this process?

Ok, go to your downloads in itunes and right click on what you wish to remove and click delete, then confirm the dialoague box and it should remove it. I did this with a free tv episode to test it out. Just now worked. If you have problems try updating itunes and then try again.

Can we import only the music and not vocals?

I use garage bad on my Ipad 2, and and creating some songs. Is there a way to import a song from our library on the ipad and just have the music be imported and not lyrics/vocals.
I want to be able to sing my own song over the music.
for personal use only of course
thanks

Aside from the technical problem to import audio files into GB for iPad - it's not very easy to strip single tracks from a mixed song, sort of like un-mixing cookie dough:

HT1473 Can't import videos on my desktop into iTunes (I followed ther directions in Help and it didn't work)

I am trying to import videos (avi and mpeg) from my desktop into iTunes. I followed the instructions in iTunes Help but neither process worked.

You said your iTunes was up to date, what about your iPod?

HELP - Can't update 3G iPod, ergo can't import purchased iTunes music

I'm using iPod 2.2 software and I recently purchased two audiobooks on iTunes. The books won't import into my iPod because, according to iTunes, my iPod OS is too old. So I went to apple.com to dowload the latest iPod update but it won't install because: "this update must be installed on a volume with Mac OS 10.2.8 or higher." I am confused by this since I'm using OS X 10.4.3 on my computer. One problem might be that the orginal 2.1 iPod OS was installed on an older Mac 2 years ago. But, I had no trouble upgrading to iPod 2.2 a while back.
I thought I would wipe my iPod and start from scratch but this did not work either. In trying to install the iPod 2.1 software I got the following error message: "iPod 2.1 Software cannot be installed on this computer. This update requires the Mac OS X Networking Update." I searched apple.com for this update and could not find anything.
I'm extremely frustrated. Apple keeps referring me to the 5 R's which is no help to me whatsoever.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I solved this problem...it was a silly mistake on my part. When going through the iPod Updater installation process I assumed that the update was to be installed directly to my iPod. I decided to actually read the instructions which clearly state to first install the iPod Updater to the start-up disk and then go into the /Applications/Utilities/iPod Software Updater folder on the start-up disk and install the update onto the iPod from this location.
It worked fine.

I can't import my itunes music into Windows Movie Maker

Although the question is about a cell phone, the answer is applicable to your situation as well.

Can't import or play CD's in iTunes?

Don't know if anyone else has had this problem.
When inserting the CD, iTunes would see it & find the track info.
when trying to play or import the CD, the program would just hop down the track list & say it had finished importing.
I tracked the problem down to 'use error correction when reading Audio CD's'in the import settings & disabled it.
Everything now works fine!
I use XP Pro, anybody know if this is a bug, or is there some setting I have to alter in Windows so I can use error correction?
Thanks

it's relatively common (at least, common enough to be mentioned in troubleshooting documents and i see it reported in posts a few times each week):
You can't import or play music from an audio CD in iTunes for Windows
i don't have an especially good feel for how much this would help with this particular issue, but it might be worth following up on checking for upgraded firmware or drivers for the PC. these resources might be of some help with that:

Can't import or play tracks from CD in Itunes

Hi,
I am unable to import or play any of my songs from my CDs in ITunes 6.0.2. In the past, I had no problem with this.
I tried selecting a song from a CD located on the ddesktop and opening Quicktime instead and I was once again unable to play the song. The songs in my Itunes library work fine and I am able to play these. Then I inserted an old CD again which is part of my Itunes library already and this time it refused to play or import the tracks.
By the way, a little while ago I had a problem with my MAC and lost my whole Itunes library. I downloaded a program called IPodRip in order to restore my Itunes library from my IPod. Since then I have not imported any new songs whatsoever. I am wondering if this has something to do with the problem I am experiencing now???
Any suggestions anyone?
Thank you
