HT1473 my cd's wont automatically import to itunes

my computer reads the cd in windows media player but i cant import it into itunes.

I have this same problem since "upgrading" to iTunes 11. If iTunes is running, it doesn't see a newly inserted CD, even if I just had one inserted and imported. If i exit and restart iTunes, the CD pops right up.  I see the form you mentioned, Fiend, under Edit->Preferences->General->When you insert a CD, but you didn't say which option to select.  Mine is set to "Ask to import CD" which was my setting before installing iTunes 11. I've tried changing it to Show CD and Import CD but neither seems to work either.  The only time I seem to get it to work on any setting is when the CD has multiple entries in the Gracenotes database.  Then it pops up a menu asking which one I want to use and then the CD shows up in iTunes.

  • Automatic import into iTunes library

    Recently my iTunes has been automatically adding new songs into my iTunes library, when I download them online. How do I stop this from happening? I don't want these songs to automatically come into my iTunes Library. Thanks so much for your help.

  • Automatic importing

    How can I stop the automatic importing and playing of a music file?
    I download legal music from several places besides the Apple music store, and I always have this very annoying problem. As soon as a song finishes downloading to my selected download folder, it is automatically imported to iTunes and it STARTS PLAYING!!! This is really annoying when I am doing something else because iTunes always jumps to the front of whatever application I am working with and forces me to stop my multi-tasking, and push stop on the iTunes player. VERY annoying if I am downloading an entire album because I have to do it for twelves songs in a row.
    HOW do I turn this off? I looked in my iTunes preferences but I couldn't find the option.
    Thanks
    Erich

    What software are you using to download music besides iTunes? Aquisition and Xfactor both have settings to songs after they've finished downloading.
    Or if you're downloading using your web browser, your browser may have iTunes setup as a "helper application", so that it opens the song file after it's downloaded.

    -= Changing the application used to open all files of a certain kind (written with reference to OSX 10.4 but may not have changed) =-
    1) In a Finder window highlight a file of the kind you want to change the application to open that kind of file.
    2) While that file is highlighted, select File > Get Info or press command (apple or propeller icon) + i to get a file information window.

    4) If your application is already in the box then it is the default application for opening that kind of file and you don't need to do anything more.  Close the get info window.
    5) If the application showing in the menu is not the one with which you wish to open the file then select a new application. If your application does not appear there then select the "other..." and track down the application (usually in the Applications folder at the main level of the computer).

  • How can I (automatically) import new photos of the photostream on my local disc (Mac)? Don't want to use new icloud service. Simply import.

    New Photo app on Mac.
    How can I (automatically) import new photos of the photo stream on my local disc (Mac)? Don't want to use new icloud service. Simply import.
    With iPhoto every new photo was automatically imported and saved on my local disk (with "full resolution" that's what I only need). In the new photo app I have still my photo stream and when I move a photo (drag and drop from the photo stream) to a new album it indicates a (plus). My understanding is that the photo is now copied to my local disk. But when I deleted the photo in the photo stream it was also deleted in the album !?
    If that is the case I can use the photo stream only until I reach the max of 1.000 photos, then I have to delete photos and I will have no copy left.
    How can I "physically" copy a photo of the photo stream to my local disk? I just want to "transfer" all pictures taken with Ipads, Iphones to my central storage on the Mac. Please don't propose to connect it via iTunes (cable) to the Mac.
    Any other suggestions?
    thx

    The amazing device cannot do it because no amazing developer has written an app for it.  There is some interest, others have asked, but i have a hunch that the market is fairly limited, and no developer has jumped at the chance just yet.
    Any sort of tethered approach means try to feed the material to the pad thru the cck.  Which means the app would have to use the allowed/existing cck pathway in a manner that does not violate the sandbox rules.  That may be the problem.

  • Is there a way I can have Business Catalyst automatically import product content from Amazon? (e.g. a Web App I could build, perhaps?)

    I'm currently building a site using Drupal that is basically a huge book database and book review site. In order to acquire basic information about certain books I'm using an Amazon module that automatically pulls information into my Drupal database (such as author name, page count, publication date, etc.) based on any ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number) I enter. It's a pretty nice arrangement. Also, people can click on a link that leads them to the item on Amazon so that they can purchase it and I can collect a puny affiliate commission. Yay Internet!
    But I'd like to use Muse and Business Catalyst instead. I was able to create a Web App version of my database but I can't figure out how to 1) automatically import based on ASIN and 2) automatically link each book record in the database to its page on Amazon. Honestly, if I could just get the info into the database alone I'd be happy.
    I'm afraid that Adobe would have to create some sort of connection on their end that interfaces with the Amazon API - and therefore there is no way to create such a website now using Muse. But, of course, I don't know everything so I ask you all: is there a way this can happen now?
    Thanks for all of your input!

    To do stuff like that will always need custom coding and things like API work. You will never be able to use Muse for that, its a basic site design tool that can hook up to BC modules. You will need to use coding software and have custom API work done for things like this.

  • Is there a way of getting Firefox to automaticly import the Explorer settings upon install?

    Hi!
    I'm trying to repack Firefox 3.6.3 into a MSI for a deployment install trough-out our organization. Since we're using Explorer as the default browser at the moment our users have all their bookmarks and such stored in Explorer. Now I'm wondering..
    Is there a way of getting Firefox to automaticly import the Explorer settings upon install?
    -Without having the wizard popup.
    I also don't want Firefox to be the default browser since the users have to decide for them self. But atleast they have there bookmarks / defaultpage and proxy settings if they decide to go for Firefox.

    I'm not sure if you have the capability, but did you try copying from your premiere sequence and then pasting into your after fx timeline? i was working with a MUCH shorter video with a mix of merged clips (interview footage) and video clips (b-roll). the video clips imported, but the merged clips did not. i put the timeline cursor to the right point in the after fx timeline, copied the premiere clip from the sequence, pasted it into after fx.

  • Is there a way to automatically import photos to a Lightroom collection?

    Hi!
    I'm coming from aperture (on the mac), where I used a program called hazel to automatically import photos into a project in Aperture.
    I'm wondering if there are similar automations for Lightroom? Thanks!

    I'm not sure I'm understanding you correctly.
    What I want is for lightroom to automatically import pictures that I put in
    a specified folder on my computer. In other words, I wouldn't do anything
    "manual" in LR at all - when I open lightroom, the pics in the specified
    finder folder would simply be there ...

  • When downloading iTunes onto a new computer, is there any way to automatically import old music files? Last time I got a new computer I didn't have to use an external drive to update my music library.

    When downloading iTunes onto a new computer, is there any way to automatically important songs from your previous computer? I recently cracked the screen on my computer and cannot access any files. Last time I got a new computer my iTunes media files automatically appeared in my iTunes when I downloaded it, and I did not have to use my external drive. Is this still possible?

    If your backup copy of the old computer was not stolen, then use it to put everything back.

  • How do I keep itunes from automatically importing mp3's from other sources

    I merge multiple files into single mp3 files.  I used to be able to do this and add them to a folder to add to iTunes at a later point, at my leisure.  Now, when I merge these into mp3 files, they are automatically being added to iTunes and it is driving me nuts.  I use either internet explorer or google chrome.  I have since deleted chrome as this problem started soon after I installed chrome.  However, it is still automatically importing these files.  I want to add them, but at a later point, not automatically.  Any ideas on how I can make this stop?
    Thanks.

    Hmmm ... the only the possibility I can think of is that:
    something is causing Windows to open the mp3 files as soon as they are created, and
    iTunes is set as the default program for mp3 files
    This would result on the behavior you are observing, though I'm not sure what the "something" would be.  It may be worth trying this:
    In Windows Explorer, select any mp3 file
    right-click, select Open with and then Choose default program
    Is iTunes selected here, like this?
    If so, try changing the default to Windows Media Player, make sure the "Always use the selected program ..." box is checked, and click OK.
    Now try your mp3 joining process again - when it finishes, does the mp3 file now open in Media Player rather than being added to iTunes?  Even if so, this doesn't really solve the problem as I would expect the mp3 joiner program to just create the mp3 file and not subsequently try and open it ... however, this might give an indication whether this a direction to go in (or not).

  • How do I stop iTunes from automatically importing the songs I download?

    I usually end up deleting a bunch of songs, but iTunes is automatically importing/adding the songs I download which then creates a lot of missing file links. How do I stop iTunes from doing that, I just want to be able to add them manually by folders.

    I'm having a similar problem.
    When I download songs via my MobileMe "iDisk" webpage, it will automatically end up in iTunes and starts playing. I set up my iDisk settings to place my downloads on my desktop, which it does, just fine.
    Nonetheless iTunes ALWAYS wanting to be part of it, is really annoying.
    I just DON'T want iTunes to start up, just because a download finished. I add songs manually myself when I want it.
    Any advise ?? Thanks

  • How do I stop iTunes from automatically importing songs not from a CD?

  • Automatic import of material data (csv file) from FTP directory

    Hello Experts,
    We created a Scheduled Task -> Data Import Monitor -> from a FTP directory.
    We loaded the .csv file with material data in the FTP folder but it is not getting imported.We have created the .csv file with the format of fields defined in Company quick start Work book -> Material tab. We also tried with a .csv file having first Field as CLASS_NAME with a value of masterdata.Material and rest of the fields same as defined in the Company quick start-Materials Tab still it did not work.
    When we load the .xls work book in FTP directory (xl having the Configuration tab and Material tab) the data import is working fine and the data is getting loaded automatically from the data import monitor job.
    Is there any specific format of .csv file in which the material data needs to be loaded to the FTP server for automatic import of data using Scheduled task?
    Regards
    Aditya
