HT1473 I have songs in iTunes that were loaded from a CD. I want to make them MP3 format so I can use a converter to play MPe files in my wifes car. I plan to use a USB plugin and pass the songs through a cheap FM type converter. Don't want to spend hundr

I copied music from CDs into iTunes on my desktop. I downloaded a lot onto a USB stick. I want to play them in my wife's Toyota Avalon but I must use something like an FM converter and that requires all songs be in MP3 format. How can I reformat the CD songs into MP3 format? Not important enough to buy an iPod Nano!!

"but I must use something like an FM converter and that requires all songs be in MP3 format."
No it doesn't.
An FM converter takes audio and sends it over FM to the radio.
A USB stick does not play audio.
You need something to play the audio (like an iPod) and plug the audio out into the FM converter.

  • HT1660 i have two independent itunes libraries on my computer right now. how do i consolidate them into one library? how do i get rid of duplicate files?

    i have two independent itunes libraries on my computer right now. how do i consolidate them into one library? how do i get rid of duplicate files?

    Hello rmunsey,
    Thank you for the question.  It sounds like you have two separate iTunes Libraries but would like to add the music from one to the other to have one consolidated library.
    If you know where the files are for each library, I recommend opening one iTunes Library in iTunes and importing the files from the other library using the following steps:
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add

    Next, you can search for duplicates:
    Choose View > Show Duplicate Items to show duplicate items (matches are based on the song name and artist). If you have multiple versions of the same song (for example, live and studio versions, or versions from different albums) you can hold the Alt or Option key (for Mac OS X) or the Shift key (for Windows) and choose View > Show Exact Duplicate Items. This will show only duplicate songs having the same name, artist, and album.

    This should help you identify the duplicates all at one time so that you can delete the extra versions of songs.

    Hello Louise,
    There are a couple of ways that you can download your apps to iTunes on your computer. 
    First, you can transfer your purchases to from your iPhone to your computer using the steps in this article:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    Alternatively, you can download the apps directly from the iTunes Store using the steps in this article:

  • Delete photos that were loaded from computer

    How do I delete photos from my iphone that were loaded from a computer?  They cant be selected from the phone and they don't appear in iTunes for selection either.

    Hello mkenne.
    To delete album that you synced with your pc or mac just connect your iDevice to pc/mac again and open it's tab in iTunes, go to photos and just unsync them.
    *I can provide you pictures if you don't understand
    Let us know if you succeeded or if you need any more help.

    Kolyei, sorry for the late reply.
    Have your brother create a contact in his phone for himself. Inside his own contact, have him add his phone number and his iCloud address.
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive Have your brother select both his phone number and email addresses where he would like to receive iMessages.

  • HT1473 I have a ton of songs in my itunes that were burned from cd.  My computer died so I'm using another computer.  The new computer will show all my purchased songs from Itunes, but none of the ones I previously burned from cd

    I burned a ton of songs from CD to Itunes and they showed up fine in my library.  I bought a new Ipod at the same time my computer died so I'm now using a totally different computer.  I logged in to my Itunes from this computer and can see every song purchased from Itunes.  What I no longer see are the ones burned from cd.  

    Does this iPod have the contents of your library? If so see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Otherwise, depending on the nature of the failure, you may be able to extract the hard drive and recover the media from it. Or you will have to rip your CDs again.
    If you'd like access to all your media on any device/computer in future you might consider purchasing a subscription to iTunes Match though personally I just maintain my own backup of my library.

  • I have some albums on my itunes that were transfered from my ipod, and some that were put on itunes from CDs. Now the 1st 10 songs of every album say that the original file can't be found, and i cant find them anywhere.

    One day, they were there and working, the next they were all like this. There is a lot of money in these, and i would like to be able to keep using them.

    Never move songs around by hand, iTunes will lose track of the files that you move.
    Your iTunes library is normally stored in C:\Users\<User>\Music\iTunes.
    The iTunes application stored in C:\Program Files\iTunes is meant to hold a selection of dll files that are needed by the program. Leavel them alone unless you are actively Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    If you know where you've moved things to my script FindTracks may be able to reconnect iTunes to the relocated tracks.

  • Tranfer files from mini to iTunes that were purchased from iTunes Store

    I'm sure this is a common question but on initial pass I did not find what I was looking for.
    I had to restore my computer. I backed up the files and thought I had imported them but when I click on a file in iTunes it does exist. So then I thought okay I have all my songs on my Mini. So I authorized my computer. I chose to Transfer Purchases but this did not seem to work.
    Can anyone tell me what I'm missing. I'm using version 7 of iTunes on Windows XP.
    Additionally, when I click on the file that is missing it says do you want to find it. I browsed to the file where I had it backed up on a DVD and chose open. Nothing seemed to happen.
    So I still have the DVD so any thoughts on this will also help.

    I figured out what was going on. The transfer music did not work because the definitions of the songs were there but the files were not. So when it tried to transfer the purchases it thought it did not need to. So I deleted all the definitions in the library and then did the Transfer Purchases again. This time it worked.

  • Playing songs in library that were downloaded from CDs

    When I try to play songs in the library that I have downloaded from CDs, I get the following message: "The song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" If I say "yes", then it leads me to the song in the the ITunes folder and it will play it from that file, but it will not play direct from the library without leading thru this process. This only happens with songs downloaded from CDs and not from songs purchased thru the Music Store. This problem also doesn't allow me to move those songs to a playlist. Any idea how to somehow get the Library to recognize these songs location??? Thanks for any help.

    If you are not using iTunes Match, then you have to sync the songs to your iPhone. Please have a look into this one:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386?viewlocale=en_US
    With iTunes Match (a paid 1-year-subscription) you can upload them into the iCloud and download them directly to the new iPhone.

  • I'm getting a message "unable to download music because not purchased with Apple ID".  These are all songs that were loaded from CDs to ITunes.  How do I transfer to my iPhone?

    If it were truly a backup, then the media would play on the laptop as it would be on the laptop.
    Sounds like you actually do not have a backup, instead you chose to keep your media on an external drive.
    Regardless of where the media is stored, it's always a good idea to have a backup for instances like this.

  • Why can't I back up music from my ipod to my computer itunes that were burned from CDs?  It will only back up songs purchased from itunes.

    I can burn the CDs to my itunes on my lap top but it is about 1000 songs.  Can I do it by synchronizing?  So far I can only get the istore purchsed music to go.

    You need a third-party program to do that. Some are discussed here:

    Hi QuisB123,
    If you are having an issue with reclaiming free space after deleting photos from your iPhone, use the steps in this article to assist -
    If you get a "Not enough free space" alert on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Specifically -
    Orphaned files might remain on your iOS device if it's physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, you might see a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device in the Capacity indicator in iTunes. Try these steps:
    Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes. If you see the "Not enough free space" alert, continue to step 5.
    Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device:
    Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
    Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes. If you see the "Not enough free space" alert, continue to step 6.
    Restore using iTunes.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

    I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
    On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
    I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
    I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?
