Import song from itunes

How do you import a song to garageband for iphone from itunes? can it be done from the iphone?

The import feature requires uncompressed audio in AIFF, WAV, CAF or Apple Loops format at 16bit, 44.1 kHz. Add a file in one of these formats into the GarageBand file sharing section of iTunes. Other file types and bitrates will be ignored by the GarageBand app.
To import the clip into a GarageBand project on the iPhone you need to open a song, switch to the tracks layout if necessary, then tap on the loop icon, click the Audio Files tab, then tap & hold on a file to drag it into position on the tracks layout.

Garageband wont import song from iTunes

Hi, I've imported songs from iTunes to Garageband many times by just selecting and dragging the song from iTunes into the GarageBand application window. Not sure why... but now that does not work--GarageBand is not accepting the song when I drag it over. Help! I'm using iTunes 10.6.3 and GarageBand 4.1.2.
Update--just saw posting from HangTime with link to instructions to highlight song in iTunes, select "Show in Finder" from the iTunes File pull-down menu, and then drag the song into the Garageband window from the Finder. It worked. Just wondering (now) why GarageBand is not allowing me to simply drag a song into Garageband directly from iTunes.

Thank you for posting that 'update' Kingpalm. It just solved my (same) problem, today 1st January 2014!

Read the Users Guide for the device, specifically the section on syncing content to the device.

Can't import songs from iTunes

I want to import songs from my iTunes library. When I click on the audio button, I can see my library of songs but I can't click and import them. I can drag the photo to desktop and then into iMovie but that feels like Windows.
I am having similar issues when importing music for slideshows in iPhoto. Maybe it's an iTunes issue?
Any sugestions?

I have a similar problem ..but I know what it is . ( the original post here is very old )
The tracks were deleted .. but the playlist in iMovie never updated to the new playlist.
I can NOT figure out how to manually update the playlist to reflet the real iTunes library.
Anybody know?

Import songs from iTunes into Windows Movie Maker

I have found it difficult to use my songs in any other application. I'm creating videos using Windows Movie Maker (Vista) and when I go to import the songs aren't showing up in the iTunes Music folder. I also downloaded the files into an external drive. When I opened the external drive separate the songs were there. When I was in Windows Movie Maker and went to import the files weren't there. Any suggestions on how to use songs from iTunes. I feel as though I've purchased them and can't use them anywhere else other than on my iPod and computer.

If they are protected files, that's correct. You can only use them on iPods, authorized computers and Apple TVs.

Can't import songs from iTunes to my iPod

I'm not sure if I have a problem with iTunes or my iPod, but I'll try this forum anyway. I already asked this under the iTunes category.
Basically, there's a sudden problem where, for the life of me, my iPod will not accept new music. It shows up fine under "Devices" in iTunes and I can import music from a CD in iTunes (which is almost exclusively how I import music). I normally highlight the songs from my library I want to import and I drag them to my iPod icon under "Devices".
I've tried moving the lock switch on and off, clicking the "sync" button, and looking up features in Preferences, but I can't seem to find what to do.
Oh, and I also can't add album artwork to songs already on my iPod.

Hello Organs,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Since it sounds like you are trying to manually manage your iPod's contents, make sure you have the *Manually manage music and videos* option enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab.
Otherwise what happens when you do try to drag music over to it? Do you get a red circle with a line through it or anything at all?
Oh, and I also can't add album artwork to songs already on my iPod.
If you manually manage your iPod's contents, you'll need to manually remove these songs from under your iPod via iTunes and drag the new copy with the artwork back over to it. Yes, very tedious, but that's what manually syncing is all about.

Plug the new iPod into your computer where your music is.

Why can't I import songs from iTunes Home Sharing?

I have two Macs - mine and my dad's. Both computers have Home Sharing on and we are using the same iTunes Account.
We are able to see and play each other's music, but cannot import any songs.
Where other people seem to see a Home Share icon (the house), we only have blue playlist symbols.
Any ideas?

Restart both of your computers, and restart your Internet modem. Then try again. It may just be a glitch.

Imported song from iTunes but only plays 8 bars, how do I get it to play the entire song?

I Am writing a song and using a instrumental as part of background. I imported to garage band by dragging it. It plays 8 bars then stops. I am missing something very obvious.

You need to change the length of the song section - best set it to automatic, before you add the audio file.
See this help page (assuming you are using GarageBAnd 2 on an iPad - which GarageBAnd version are you using?):
http://help.apple.com/garageband/ipad/2.0/index.html#chs3c3ef5dc
Change the length of a section
Open the song section controls and tap the section you want to change.
Tap the up or down arrow next to Manual to lengthen or shorten the section incrementally by bars. You can swipe vertically to change it in larger values.
If you want the section to match the length of your next recording (to the nearest bar), turn on Automatic before you record. This is especially useful when recording improvisations or longer parts. The Automatic option is available only for the last (rightmost) section in a song.
Tap anywhere in Tracks view to close the song section controls.
When you shorten a section, any regions extending past the end of the section are shortened. When you lengthen a section, all regions that extend from the beginning to the end of the section now loop to the new end of the section. A section can be any number of bars, and the overall song can be up to 320 bars long.

How can I import songs from itunes onto someone elses ipod?

Im trying to put some songs on my friends ipod but its not letting me and i can't figure it out. Please help me thank you!!

Yup.
Of course, there's nothing physically stopping you from loaning your friend your CD to rip it to his own computer for syncing to his own iOS device. It wouldn't likely be legal, though; check the license agreement from the CD producer/distributor.

Importing issues from itunes into garageband

I am having trouble importing songs from Itunes into garageband. This has happened sometime within the last 3-4 weeks or so and the first time I noticed it was today. It won't let me click and drag from itunes. It just bounces back. I am able to go into my finder and click & drag the file, so it's not a copyright issue...besides, I tried dragging from itunes a song I've already used in garageband and it's not working either. I updated itunes yesterday...could this be the problem???
I haven't updated to iLife..to be honest, don't really know much about it, because every time I click on the "tell me more" tab, it says it can't redirect me to the page that has the info on it ....*Gahhh* frustrating! ...could there be some kind of plug-in or something missing? I'm not super-techy, but I can do enough to get me by...Any help you guys can provide me with would be greatly appreciated!!

I am also having the same problem. i can drag the files out of the music folders but I can not drag any file out of the itunes screen. The files are .mp3 and are in lowercase letters. I tried a recommended fix where the files were reconverted in iTunes, but trying conversions in both .mp3 and .aiff did not work. Also, trashing a certain preference file was recommended on a discussions board but that did not work either. Until there is a solution, I'll have to work in Audacity.
