I recently imported 2 cd's to my Itunes library, and then tried to download them to my Ipod classic, and they would not download. In my library, but not on my Ipod. What gives?

This topic is also discussed in an conveniently archived discussion. My opinion is anything downloaded and not purchased in the Apple iTunes store is not truly compatible with iTunes and/or iPod Classic - all of the potential space - unusable. I am not holding my breath for an answer nor give a **** if they do respond. No more Apple products for me, now I need to figure out how to transfer everything purchased onto another medium.

I recently downloaded a movie with an avi extension, I changed it to .m4v and then tried to import it into iTunes but never goes through the importing process and it never shows up.

That WON'T convert it.
If I do the same with an MP3 and change the extension to JPG, it DOESN'T make it a picture. It makes it unusable.
Change it back to AVI and download "Handbrake". http://handbrake.fr/
Use HandBrake to "convert" it to M4V.

If I import audio books into the music section of itunes it lists the books as albums and all the chapters as tracks fine when I sync them to my ipod classic, but not if I import them as audiobooks, any ideas please?

If I import audio books into the music section of itunes it lists the books as albums and all the chapters as tracks fine when I sync them to my ipod classic, but not if I import them as audiobooks and then sync them, any ideas please?

If you import the audiobook as an audiobook to your iTunes Library, it will be listed in the Books section of your Library. You may need to turn on Books in order to see them. If you cannot see the File/Edit... etc. menu, use CTRL B on your keyboard to make that menu bar appear. Then go to Edit/Preferences>Books and put a tick in the box.
But, if the imported audiobook shows up in the Music section of your iTunes Library, highglight the files (in iTunes) and select File/Get Info/Options/Media Kind>Audiobook. These files will now transfer to the Books section of iTunes.
Once on an iPod Classic, look under the Audiobooks menu. Again, you may need to change the settings in the Settings menus, in order to have the Audiobooks option shown on the Main Menu and/or the Music Menu.

HT1351 I've encoded a vinyl LP record into digital format and recorded it onto an usb as MP3 file. But when I tried to copy it onto my ipod classic, I get a message stating "was not copied to the ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod". Why?

I've encoded a vinyl LP record into digital format and recorded it onto an usb as MP3 file. But when I tried to copy it onto my ipod classic, I get a message stating "was not copied to the ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod". Why?

I was refering to the "sample rate", normally 44.1 KHz, the iPod might not be able to play tracks with a non-standard rate. Otherwise I'm not sure what the issue might be.

HT1451 Hi I have a few albums showing on my PC that are in my library and I want to put them onto my iPhone

Hi
I have purchased albums that I removed from my iPhone but are still on my desktop and now wish to return them to my iPhone how do I do this I've tried most things Reset Synch ect
Thanks

If you use automatic syncing to load your iPod, songs that are on the iPod need to be in your iTunes library. If you use the manual method to load your iPod (by dragging songs to it in iTunes), the iTunes library is not directly related to what is on the iPod, so you can delete a song from the iTunes library, and it will stay on your iPod.
That error message is a separate issue. It means that since the song was added to your iTunes library, its song file (in the iTunes Media folder) has been moved or deleted. So although the song is still listed in the iTunes library, iTunes no longer knows where its file is located. If you don't want the song in your iTunes library, you can delete it from the iTunes list.

I have 1 itunes library with an iphone and ipod linked to it. My daughter bought a ipod touch. Can we download music from my library into her library. We want to keep them separate due to I do not want all her games in my phone

I have 1 itunes library with a phone and ipod linked to it. My daughter just got a touch. She would like to have some of my music downloaded into her touch. How can I do that without having her linked to my library?

Sync all the devices to the same computer.
If you do not want her apps, then simply do not select them to sync to your device.
Each device will only sync what you select to sync.
lllass gave you a great link for several options.

Why will my music library download onto my iPod nano but not on my iPod touch (5th gen.)?

I imported a few CDs to my music library earlier and I tried to download them onto my iPod touch and it wouldn't work. The songs just have grey dotted circles beside them. I'm not sure what this means.. Anyways, since it wouldn't work on my touch I thought I'd try and put them on my nano. And sure enough when I synced it, it worked. Can someone please help me out? I'd rather not have to carry around 2 iPods around with me now..

Flash 2004 MX will not import .FLA's into the library

I can't imagine why this is- but if someone has some
eperience here- I would be so ever grateful.
I can't get Flash MX 2004 to inport FLA files into the shared
library. When I select inport/into shared library I get an error
message that says flash does not recognize the .fla file type and
wants to know if I should let quick time see if it can recognize
the file. "Use quicktime instead".
Here is what I have tried:
Reset the file types in File/Folder under control panel to
default- Flash- But all file types were already recognzed- -reset
was just a deperation hope and prayer.
Un-installed quicktime then tried to import- no
un-installed flash- reinstalled flash- tried to import- no
Installed newest version of Quicktime and then tried to
import- no
Reverted to a prior system restore point- then
Re-installed Flash - tried to import-no
looked in the registry but could not navigate to anything
that resembled file extensions-
Flash saves FLA's and makes SWF's just as it should- opens
FLA's and sees FLA file types in the saved folder.
When I initialize the import/to library functon FLA file
types are not listed unless I select "all file types" in the file
types drop down- it does recognize SWFs
Flash did recognize FLA's until I played a Quicktime
Instruction CD. With no further action on my part, it quit
importing correctly-
No viruses are found
?? ideas
Thanks
-D
Any other ideas or work-arounds would be greatly
appreciated-

Thanks Shane- but when I need to share a library file- I
select file/ import to library and that is where I get the error- I
was able to share Flash librarys befor I played the quicktime file-
and now- unfortunately FLAs are an unrecognized format. And I am no
longer getting the additional mesage "do you want Quicktime to try
and open them. Just a message that says "one or more files were not
imported because there were errors reading them"
But they open in flash.... which is what I don't understand-
something has happend that flash no-longer sees the fla file type
under the File/ Import to Library.
-D
Yeah, that would have been a ton of effort... Hopefully a
little more clarification in the details...

When I import a folder into my library, music starts playing and I can't stop it.

So, I haven't used iTunes in years.
I'm just wondering if this is the same for everyone, of if I've just done something wrong.
Brand new install of the latest version of iTunes (11.3.1) - Open it up, use the "Import folder" option to import a folder into my library.
It's a large (over 200gb) folder.
As it's importing, for some reason, iTunes starts to play the first few seconds of each album that gets imported.
But, because the "Importing.." dialogue window is open, I can't hit "pause" or "stop".
So, my computer is just sitting here playing the first few seconds of many many songs whilst importing. I can turn down the volume to stop it, but I'm just wondering -
Is this normal? Seems a little odd and strange.

Generally setting a common Album Artist will fix things.
For deeper problems see Grouping tracks into albums.
