HT1849 how to import music and video from windows media player

I want to import my music and videos from the windows media player, and I want to import or put it all in my itunes library. How do I do that. I know there is a button.
Am I missing it? Can someone help me please. I am working off of a laptop. If that helps anything.

In Media Player music list, make sure the "Protected" column is displaying. Sort by that column. Any songs that are protected can not be converted to iTunes. You will have to re-rip the CD with the WMP setting to be to not protect the songs.
I had the same problem with album covers and could never fix it. I just gave up. I spoke with people at Apple stores and nothing they suggested worked.

  • Import library and playlists from Windows Media Player without duplicates

    How do I import all the music and playlists from Windows Media Player into iTunes without creating duplicates?
    I add the folder containing all my music to iTunes and all my music arrives nicely. I begin importing playlists and the playlist comes over with all the songs duplicated in my library. Most of my songs are on playlists but some are not.
    After adding the music folder (approx 7000 songs) then all the playlists, my iTunes library now contains over 13,000 songs. The increase is due to the duplicates being created as the playlists are added.
    If I skip adding the music folder and just add the playlists I get most of my music without as many duplicates but I am missing the songs which are not on any playlist. Thanks.

    If it' sprotectged WMA files, no you can't add them.
    If they are plain WMA (like RIPped from a CD) you can File -> Add to library and iTunes will import and convert them.

  • How to import photos and videos from Android device?

    Hello
    I just bought Photoshop Elements 11 recently and I'm trying to import photos and videos from my phone, Samsung Galaxy SIII, but having a little trouble.
    When I go to "Import from Camera or Card Reader" option and choose my phone from the "Get photos from" drop down menu in "Source" section the "Photo downloader" finds
    every single photo and/or video stored on the device and it's memory card but I'm trying to import only photos and/or videos I've shot my self with the phone, witch is kept
    in an folder named DCIM, but I simply can't figure out how to so my question is:
    How do I import photos and/or videos from my Android device?

    Try clicking Advanced button (bottom left) in the downloader dialog. You should then be able to select and deselect thumbnails and import only the ones you give the checkmark.

  • How to sync music and video from iPhone4 with iPad mini?

    I have music and video on my iPhone4 and I just got my iPad mini yesterday.  Does anyone know how to sync music and video between two devices?

    Apple doesn't enable you to copy certain items from your iPhone to your computer e.g.
    - songs that have not been bought in the iTunes store
    - photos from photo album (only allows photos transferred from camera roll)
    This is frustrating if you have lost these items on your computer - e.g. accidental deletion, hard disk failure.
    Its not that its not possible - just that the functionality is not included in iTunes. Its an example of Apple prioritising revenues over customer experience - hey they can do what they want with their reputation but should take care not to frustrate customers too much.
    However the Senuti (free) and PhoneView ($20) allows you to transfer items either way between computer and iPhone. Ive tried both and they work great. These are for OS X and there are many other applications available online for both Windows/Mac that allow you to treat the iPhone as just a plugged in disk too. You can try iPod Photo Liberator (Mac & Windows) iPodCopy (Mac and Windows Versions) Keith's iPod Photo Reader (Mac only).
    Good luck

  • How do I move my files from Windows Media Player to my ipod?

    Please help! I cannot figure out how to move the songs in Media Player over to my ipod.

    Hello 03bprice!  Follow the instructions below:
    Add files already stored on your computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12485 and http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12493
    Do either of the following:
    Drag a file or folder from the desktop to the iTunes window.If you add a folder, all the files it contains are added to your library.
    In iTunes, choose File > Add to Library, locate a file or folder, and click Open.
    By default, adding items to your iTunes library places a pointer to each file in the iTunes folder; the original file remains in the current location. For information about copying files to the iTunes folder instead of creating pointers to them, see Change where your iTunes files are stored. If the file is an unprotected WMA file and you have Windows Media Player Series 9 or later installed, iTunes makes a copy of the file and adds it to your iTunes library. The original WMA file remains unchanged. You can’t add protected WMA files or protected WMV files to iTunes.

  • Transfer videos from windows media player to iTunes

    Want to transfer personal videos from media player into iTunes

    The only way iTunes could play the content of a commercial video DVD would be to use a third-party tool to break the copy protection and convert the content to a format iTunes can handle, and that's not something we can do here since breaking the copy protection is illegal in the US.
    Regards.

  • Importing music and videos from itu

    Hi,I just recently threw in the towel with the ipod after I went though 5 of them in under 2 years. So I decided to switch to the Creative Zen vision M, and I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a way I could get the songs and music videos that I?had downloaded off of itunes and put them on my zen. Any help would be great!

    I lost artwork also, what I did is completely delete the library to the garbage and then readd the Itunes music folder back to Itunes and then all the artwork came back. The only artwork that Itunes can find automatically on it's own is if it carries that particular album in it's store. If it doesn't carry the album or MP3 that you may have purchased from another online store you'll have to manually go somewhere on the internet and manually add the artwork yourself. Itunes only automatically finds artwork regardless whether you purchased it from Itunes store or elsewhere only if the Itunes store carries that particular album.

  • How do you add a playlist from windows media player to itunes

    I want to put a playlist from wmp on to itunes

    I can't see a way to export M3U playlists from WMP or import WPL playlists into iTunes. I could probably write a script to import directly from the WPL, but there is no point reinventing the wheel if this works for you: http://sourceforge.net/projects/wplm3uconvert/

  • How can I convert audio files from Windows Media player to WMV?

    I am unable to add a soundtrack if it is a WMA file.  What programs are best to convert files to WMV?

    If you are wishing to add the WMA soundtrack to a PrE Project, I would convert/rip the WMA to PCM/WAV 48KHz 16-bit, and then Import that WAV file into the PrE Project. Drag it to a free Audio Track. Though there is a Soundtrack Track, some users have had issues with it. Any free Audio Track, with the necessary channel-count is likely to work better.
    For the conversion/ripping, there are many programs that can do this for you. I use Adobe Audition, but the great, free Audacity can do it nicely, as well.
    As WMA can have aspets, like 6-channel Audio, wrapped in the WMA, I like doing the conversion, unless I need, say the 6 discrete channels in Audition, for output to DTS Audio with the SurCode DTS encoder program.
    Good luck,

  • Need instructions on how to download photos and videos from my Samsung cell to my iPhoto

    Need instruction for how to import photos and videos from my Samsung cell phone to iPhoto.  Thx

    Copy the files to the Mac and then drag them to the iPhoto window, or use the File -> Add to Library command
    As for how to connect the phone and the Mac, for that you'll need to read the manual for the phone or seek support from a Samsung or Android (that's the operating system) site.

  • Import music from windows media player to itunes

    I can't import my mp3 files from window media player to my ipod. Can anyone tell me in detail how this is done?

    You'll first need to add the MP3s to your iTunes library since the iPod is not compatible with Windows Media Player. You can use, for example, the File > Add to Library menu to do this.

  • Moving music from windows media player

    i swear ive done this before, but i cannot remember how i did it. how do i move .wma files from windows media player into itunes library? i cannot drag them over, i just get the circle w/ a slash. ive tried sync-ing them directly onto my nano from media player program & it lists them in the pop up window on my computer, but they are lsited no where in song titles on my actual nano for me to access. ive tried converying the format & it wont allow me. i know it can be done, i just cant figure out how. thank you.

    First, find out where Media Player has stored the music files on your computer. It typically is in Documents and Settings\(Your Name)\My documents\My Music and then there should be a folder that has a name that resembles Media Player. If you pull up Tools>Options and click the "Rip Music" tab it will show you where you have your music stored. So then pull up this folder that it tells you to, then pull up the iTunes window as well, and then simply drag and drop the folders into your iTunes music library. iTunes will convert the songs automatically for you, sometimes this may take a while. For example, I have 3300 songs on my Hard Drive and it took the entire day for iTunes to convert all of the ones it needed to. So just be patient and you should be good to go.
