strange.
perhaps let's first try running through the troubleshooting advice from this document:
Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime software in Windows
... but if no joy with any of that, let's try getting an itunes 7 installer log to the Apple engineers for a look.
1. Open a command prompt window. (Start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return.)
2. Drag and drop iTunesSetup.exe onto the window so that the full pathname of the file is at the command line prompt.
3. Type in a space, then the following line:
/l*v C:\log.txt
4. Hit return.
5. The installer will create a log file:
C:\log.txt
Find that file and send it as an attachment to this email address.
in the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
- A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
- The username you are using in the thread
- The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
- the version of Windows you are using (mention service packs)
- A concise description of the issue you are seeing
- The exact text of the error message you are seeing

  • Cannot add music to iTunes

    I've just put some new music on my external hard drive, and now want to add it to iTunes. I've tried both the "Add folder to iTunes" and "Add files to iTunes" options, as well as dragging and dropping both the folder and music separately from windows explorer, but nothing works. iTunes will however play the music on my external hard drive that I've added previously.
    I'm using the latest version of iTunes (10.0.1.22), and am running Windows XP SP2. This is driving me crazy, can anyone please help?

    running iTunes as ADMINISTRATOR in WINDOWS 7 will shut off the drag and drop music feature, quit iTunes and run it as a regular user NO admin option checked in the properties and compatibility tab

  • Only purchased music showing in iPhone 5s/ cannot add music from iTunes

    Hello all,
    I have an iPhone 5s, running iOS 8.1.3, and the iTunes on my laptop is also up to date with the latest version. Last night I was dragging and dropping music from my iTunes library to my iPhone as normal - but then I suddenly noticed that all the music in my iPhone Music library had disappeared, except for things I'd purchased. I didn't change any settings or press anything by mistake or do anything different whatsoever, it just suddenly happened. Now whenever I try to drag and drop or even sync music from my iTunes library to my iPhone, nothing happens - the music does not appear on my phone. I have "Show all music" checked on my phone, but still only the purchased stuff is showing up. I don't use iTunes match or iCloud or anything like that either, I always just drag and drop music from my laptop onto my phone and it has always worked fine up until this point. Can anybody help with this? Thanks!

    According to feedback I have received, this is what has worked for many people:
    Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

    Apple made all the equipment I use.
    Bentley and Ferrari etc do not stop making parts for their cars?
    The least Apple could is.
    A. Update itunes to run on a G5
    Regarding iOS 7.0 you have totally lost the plot.
    We buy apple why?
    Quality.
    Intuitive interface.
    Stable software.
    Design.
    All that Steve Jobs consider sacrosanct.
    Quality is about ongoing support longevity of product.
    Its not about trying to sell to every person on the planet, others are way ahead of you.
    So try respective the customers you have, it wont be long before theirs a better operating system and your lead in hardware is marginal.

    If you have an iPhone or iPad do not update to ISO 7 unless you want an operating system that looks like windows 8. The graphics looks like it was designed by a artistically challenged mongoose and the operating system is not intuitive something apple users expect. Overly complicated ugly and generally change for the sake of apples paranoia since the death of Steve Jobs.

    You need to update iTunes to 11.1 on your PC

  • I cannot add music from my computer onto my itunes library.

    I cannot add music from my computer onto my itunes library. I have tried dragging the songs, importing them, going to Add files and Add folders, copy and pasting. They just won't turn up in my itunes library.

    You don't say where you are having problems.  The best answer will depend upon what exactly you are trying to do.  If you are trying to add one or two files, copy them to a flash drive, then drag them from the drive to an iTunes playlist.  If you are trying to move your whole library that requires a different answer.
    Note .wma files will work with iTunes on a PC but cannot be added to a Mac iTunes.  Convert them to another format on the PC first (but I don't think you can do that if they are protected format).

  • Cannot add music to my ipod

    I just updated my ipod touch 4 gen and now I cannot add music to it in itunes. The "add to" button is gone. I also lost all of my purchased music and cannot add it back.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod.... and follow the instructions.

  • Importing content setting problems - and cannot add music & still photos

    Sorry for the newbie questions, but just starting with iMovie and I'm having some serious problems.
    When I import movies from my harddisk iMovie seems to make a second copy and much larger version of the movie file stored in the iMovie folders (a 900mb master created a 1.4gb duplicate). How can I stop it from duplicating (& changing) the master? I certainly don't want to 'move' as it seems the original will be deleted. Probably just a check button somewhere (I hope).
    Also, when trying to create a movie I cannot add music of photos! The music and photo browsers are empty. How can I navigate the disk to select a song or a photo still? There must be some settings to tell it where to find music/photos on the disk.

    Hi, sorry, I have a dumb question too.
    My iPhone broke, I bought a new one, and now my iTunes library won't download onto my new phone.
    Help?

  • Can't add music to iTunes 10.6.3

    Hi there,
    I am running iTunes 10.6.3 on my OSX 10.5.8 . All of a sudden (well, maybe I just noticed it, but definitely within the last three weeks) - can't remember if I updated in that time period), I am unable to add music to iTunes. I can't drag and drop, can't do file --> add music to library, nothing. If I get music by converting youtube to mp3, THAT opens in iTunes, but I've just downloaded an entire album and don't really want to go converting fifteen+ songs one by one.
    I don't have Cloud, don't have match.... can anyone help me?

    Hold down the option key while starting iTunes, then select library.  Your library is stored in your Home > Music > iTunes > iTunes Library.itl file
    iTunes can be picky about mp3 formatting and not all mp3s files are created the same.

  • When i try to add music from itunes to my ipod itune tells me the music on my ipod came from a differnt libray and  wants to erase my whole ipod. i just loaded my ipod two days ago. i don't want to replace everything every time i want to add to songs

    When i try to add music from itunes to my ipod, Itune tells me the music on my ipod came from a differnt libray and  wants to erase my whole ipod. i just loaded my ipod two days ago. i don't want to replace everything every time i want to add two to songs. My MacBook Pro is the only autherized computer.

    To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place and you will be able to change your settings.

    What have you tried, and do you receive an error message?
    In general, itunes has DRM (copy protection) so it will only work according to the license... and as far as I know, Apple's license does not allow use in a new product, only in the Apple player... new product being the video you want to create

  • Recently when I log on to itunes, my computer tries to connect to the itunes store and then just remains blank. the screen is white and I cannot even connect to itunes help from the itunes tab  ... help!

    Recently, when I open itunes I cannot connect to the itunes store. It shows that it is connecting then the screen is blank and remains blank. I cannot even open the itunes help section from itunes. I had to log on to the support sight from my browser. Any ideas????

    Hi.
    I have spent the past 10 days trying to solve this problem of “iTunes Store” no longer opening.
    During this time of emailing backwards and forwards to iTunes Support nothing they suggested worked. All the links they sent didn’ toffer any help. I was basically just being told to delete iTunes and then reinstall it again.
    After this long period of emailing each other every day,they finally told me that I need more detailed Technical Help and gave me a phone number to call their Apple Telephone Technical Help line.
    When I explained all of the above, the man I was speaking to said did you delete EVERYTHING connected with iTunes, to which I said that I had deleted iTunes so I assumed that would be it. I was then told that this was the problem, I was not told to also delete Quick Time and Bonjour etc., infact everything else connected with iTunes.
    So this is the procedure:
    Control Panel/ Delete/Uninstall a Program
    Then delete ALL of the following: “Apple ApplicationsSupport”, - “Apple Software Update”, - Bonjour, - “iTunes”, - “Quick Time”.
    Finally, go to ‘Start’/’Search’ then type in iTunes and then you will see appear a whole string of at least 10 files all with the word ‘iTunes’ in each file name. DELETE EVERY ITEM. You should have now entirely cleared your computer of everything connected with Apple iTunes.
    Now, Reinstall iTunes, which will reinstall everything you have just deleted explained above.
    Result?  It all workedagain!!  

  • How do I add music from itunes to imovie

    How do I add  music  from  itunes to imovie?

    Hi
    I do
    • Never use .mp3 (or other strange formats)
    • Never import directly from iTunes
    • Convert all to .aiff 16-bit 48kHz or from Audio-CD 44.1kHz .aiff
    In iTunes I collect needed audio into a new PlayList
    - then burn them as a Standard Audio-CD (.aiff)
    to convert .mp3 or other formats to .aiff I use - Audacity™ (free from Internet)
    and in all my movie projects in - iMovie HD6 or iMovie'11 or FinalCut Express or Pro - I use these .aiff files.
    I have near to Zero problem with Audio in my projects.
    Yes - tedious. Yes there might be better ways - BUT - YES I hate to re-do my projects and the Audio never makes me to do that this way.
    Yours Bengt W
