Itunes 11 "add to library" not working (drag and drop too)

I just updated to itunes 11 and the add to library function is not working both manually and drag and drop. I used to be able to add a video to the itunes media file, click add to library, click the file and it would pull it in to itunes. None of this works including the drag and drop feature. The preferences folder is set correctly.....please help.

It appears movies added to iTunes manually (not purchased through iTunes), are automatically put in the "Home Movie" media kind/category. I don't remember this kind in previous iTunes, but maybe it's just not one I used. I've seen where this is due to using MetaX, but I don't think so as "Home Movie" is not an option in MetaX. I cannot find any option in iTunes preferences to change this. Maybe Apple will change this in an update - I hope so. For now, I just go in and manually change this in the movie Info setting. I keep all of my movies in digital format, so this is a bit of a pain.

ITunes 10 add to library not working

I was trying to add some MP3's to my iTunes collection tonight and am seeing that iTunes 10 add to library function is not working at all.
Really irritating.

Same issue here and thanks for posting that the location of the iTunes content went back to the default after upgrading to 10....I'm sure I would have been scratching my head over that one for awhile. I've got all my content on Netgear Stora MS2110 home server and after adding a few new MP3s using my Macbook I decided to update my iTunes library on my PC, but using the "File/Add File to Libary" didn't work. Once I updated the path to my content I was able to add at least one of the MP3s on my server to my PC iTunes library using the File drop down menu or drag and drop, but not all of them - strange. Definitely a bug that needs fixing.

Open dialogue box in Lion is not supporting drag and drop files (UPDATE)

This is freaking me out. Because now in Lion you can't drag and drop file from the desktop (and other folders!) to open dialogue box. It was most usefull function in Mac OS X. Why Apple kill usabillity?
Access to the desktop is not a problem (command + d), but if the current file is located deep in the hierarchy of folders, it becomes a big problem!!!
Dear Apple, please fix it as soon as you can.
UPDATE: Omg, I found the problem, it works only if I drad and drop file on the bottom panel, not in all open dialogue box area:

Interesting, this is the second time today I've seen this one come up. It does work, drag and drop works like crazy everywhere here. What does console say when it happens (or not, in your case)?

Drag & Drop artwork & Add to Library not working

Hi all,
This is only a recent problem, using the latest version of iTunes on my Dell XP PC and I'm upable to drag and drop from Windows Explorer into iTunes. I can add music and artwork into iTunes using the 'Add to Library' option but when I try to drag & drop into iTunes, I get a black circle with a diagonal line through it.
Drag & drop from windows explorer to say my desktop works fine. Any thoughts?

Hi Limnos (your reply has now appeared it must have been a time delay!)
I've tried this and it has now readded all the old mp3 & M4a files but is not adding the new AIFF files any more.
I then tried using apple encoder to covert the files and import as M4a but that doesn't work either.
It's like it doesn't like any of my new folders.
I've tried applying the 'share'/'permissions' to all subfolders of my music folder where the music is stored but this didn't work either.
Any other suggestions v welcome as I'm running out of ideas

My mp4 movie files used to transfer from computer to iPad but now they will not Tried dragging and dropping to iTunes library but won't work anymore Plse help

I have mp4 movie files that i am trying to transfer to my ipad and it will no longer work. They will not copy to my iTunes library. I used to be able to transfer/drag and drop converted movies to my iTunes are the mp4 files maybe too big Although I have plenty of space

Howdy Anastasia,
I was thinking about why the songs arent importing and I feel that its either, A) the format of the files has changed since you last imported them, or B) you may need to rebuild the iTunes library.
Here is an article about doing just that:
iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
Re-creating the iTunes Library file
Note: After re-creating your library, any devices that you sync with iTunes (Apple TV, iPod, iPhone, iPad) will see your iTunes library as a new library and will completely resync. The next sync with such a device will take longer and may reset some options since your rebuilt library isn't familiar to the device.
1. Quit iTunes.
2. Locate your iTunes folder (this is the folder that contains the iTunes Library and iTunes Library.xml files).
Operating System
Default location of iTunes Folder
Mac OS X
/Users/[your username]/Music
Microsoft Windows XP
\Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\
Microsoft Windows Vista
\Users\[your username]\Music\
Microsoft Windows 7
\Users\[your username]\My Music\
3. Open your iTunes folder.
4. Drag the "iTunes Library.xml" or "iTunes Music Library.xml" file to the Desktop. If neither is available, learn how to add files back to the Library (because the XML file is not available, playlists and other information will not be available).
5. Drag the following file from your iTunes folder to the Trash:
Mac OS X
"iTunes Library" or "iTunes Library.itl"
Microsoft Windows
"iTunes Library.itl"
6. Open iTunes.
Important: Do not add any content into iTunes at this point (such as by purchasing something from the iTunes Store).
7. Choose File > Library > Import Playlist.
8. Navigate to the "iTunes Library.xml" file on the Desktop.
Mac users: Click Choose.
Windows users: Click Open.
If your Podcasts list in iTunes is empty after following these steps, learn how to add them back into iTunes.
Regards,
Sterling

How to add a code so my drag and drop movie clip will not stick once it is dragged to final place o

Hello all and kglad, I have to use the old drag and drop code on my movie clips, but the problem is when I drag the movieclip to the area on my .swf file once i release it, it sticks to the hand mover.
I am encloseing the action script I am using could someone or kglad tell me what is missing from the code so that once it is released it will not stick, see code below
circle.onPress = function(){
startDrag(this);
circle.onRelease = function(){
stopDrag();
I am desparate for help on this must get project ready for this afternoon
Seal55

there's nothing wrong with that code but it would be better to use:
circle.onPress = function(){
this.startDrag();
circle.onRelease = function(){
this.stopDrag();
but that won't solve your problem. there must be something else going on like a depth issue. you may need to use swapDepths() to bring your circle under the mouse when releasing.

Files Not Founds (Drag and Drop)

Hi everyone,
I have a 32gig Playbook, which was working just fine until I updated last night (the one with the video chat release). I can no longer view documents (like pdfs) and videos that I drag and drop into the Playbook. When I say I can't view, I mean the files don't even show up for me to click on like it normally does.
I have tried it on both Mac and PC, and it worked on both prior to the update. So, does anyone have a solution or an explaination as to why this is happening?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
MisterClyde

Hello MisterClyde and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
When transferring the file, are you using the Desktop Software? Do you get confirmation the transfer has completed?
Not sure if you have tried the method listed in KB26068, but have a look. I was able to tranfser data using the new version and the transfer did complete for me.
If the steps in the article don't seem to work and you are still experiencing the issue, contact us at the number from the support site found here.

HT1349 new itunes update won't allow me to drag and drop a playlist

Hi
I've downloaded the new iTunes update but I can't seem to do a drag and drop with playlists from my PC/mac onto my external Apple devices (2x iPads, iPod and my iPhone)
Is this lost functionality or a new "feature"
I don't want iCloud and Home Sharing doesn't work for me...
Any ideas....?
I can include songs onto a device but only one at a time wheras I need to drag the whole playlist...

No, I haven't had any solution to this problem. None of the myriad of possible solutions work. Doesn't someone from Apple monitor these boards? I've given up in getting it fixed and am seriously ****** at the lack of response on Apple's part without me paying for an answer. This is a ridiculous way to support software, where I have to troll around a discussion board hoping someone stumbled upon a solution and will actually reply to this thread.
Considering the amount of Apple products that I own, you'd think I could get a freakin' response. Here's are the amount of apple products in my house, all bought within the past 3 years-
Mac Pro Quad Core
15" MacBook Pro
13" Macbook Air
3 Mac Minis
Three iPad's
2 iPhone 4's
2 iPod Touch's
But because it's on my Mac Pro, which is 1 1/2 years old, I can't get an answer to this! ***.

Note 762640 - Drag and drop in Transaction PPOMA_BBP for SRM 7.0

Hi, All!
Does anybody know about analog for note 762640 for SRM 7.0,
Because the problem is:
If the position or the business partner of a user is assigned to a different organizational unit by drag and drop or by de-/assign in Transaction PPOMA_BBP, they become inconsistent because tables BUT050 and BUT052 are not adjusted.
Does anybody know about solving this problem ?

Hi,
In order to process the SC from Sourcing Cockpit, we should have the authorization for t-code BBPSOCO01 in our User roles.
So, you can chcek the z-roles in your system with this t-code authorization in SUIM and add to your profile.
Hope this helps.

How to add Two incorrect feedbacks in Drag and drop in captivate 7.

Hi
I want to show two different incorrect feedback in drag and drop interaction in Captivate 7. Currently we can show only one even though i have increased the drag and drop attempts to 2. I want to show a try again feedback and incorrect feedback with correct options and this should not be there when the learner re-visits this slide.
Note: I am already using a success caption and have executed the action - "On Enter" to "Hide" this success caption.
Please help me with this.

Hi Sreekanth,
You understanding is correct. But,it is not even necessary to show the correct sources on correct targets along with the feedback... the correct option numbers in incorrect feedback will do.
reg point number 3, if I revisit the slide, the feedback are still displayed. For example, in this case, I added a correct feedback, but when I revisit the slide, the feedback was still appearing. So I added this action "On Enter" to "Hide" this success caption. So that is why i told specifically that none of the feed backs should be there when i revisit the slide.
Sorry Srikanth - I am not familiar with the advanced actions or variables. I have just used some from referring the examples from net. that's all

Add to library not working iTunes for mac 11.1.5

I am not sure whether I've had a need to add music to my iTunes library since the Mavericks upgrade but I've discovered that I cannot add to Library by any of the usual methods (add to library, drag dropping etc). I've tried folders, individual files and different music formats but with no success.
Nothing happens atall - it's like I didn't even select the command.
I see a number of old threads on this but nothing recent on this version. Has anyone else had this problem and can point me towards a fix. Do I need to downgrade or apply a patch or give up?

Hi Limnos (your reply has now appeared it must have been a time delay!)
I've tried this and it has now readded all the old mp3 & M4a files but is not adding the new AIFF files any more.
I then tried using apple encoder to covert the files and import as M4a but that doesn't work either.
It's like it doesn't like any of my new folders.

ITUNES 9.2 NOT SUPPORTING DRAG AND DROP TO TOAST CORRECTLY

APPLE is turning into MICROSOFT!!! The new iTunes update to 9.2 may be necessary for iPhone 4 to work but they missed a whole bunch of things. For example when I drag a track from my iTunes window to the desktop I used to see the file on the desktop with the artwork INCLUDED as the file's icon - now when I drag it the artwork is no longer included in the thumbnail nor when I hit the space bar to preview the track can I see the artwork - something I used a lot when I do my job reviewing music - sometimes 200 track per week so it has ruined my process of working with music files in large quantites.
Also - I always found that iTunes never correctly embeds the text info for each track into CDs whenever I used the program to burn CDs. Often when I am DJing in a club the text info would not show on the CD player screen. I found that Toast would do this perfectly everytime regardless of what model CD player I was working with. So I would grab an entire playlist from iTunes and drop it into the Toast window and simply hit burn.
NOW in 9.2 I can no longer select an entire playlist and drag it to Toast. I have to drag all the files out of iTunes, into a folder where the files sort themselves into random order so I then have to reassemble the playlist track by track in Toast - this takes 10 times longer or more.
By forcing these unwanted practices upon us APPLE is turning into MICROSOFT!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I think what people have to realize is as updates come up, code changes. This therefore may not result in best compatibility with other software, and you have to admit, it's not Apple's responsibility to make sure every single other software is ready to work with a new version, it is rather the programmers of Toast, or whatever else you use. Apple needs to worry about their program alone.
Maybe Toast will release an update. Not to say iTunes 9.2 isn't due for further fixes. There are problems with the artwork viewer, artwork, and iPod syncing, but those will come in time. I really think this is just a consequence of Apple revamping their system (for example, to result in quicker performance for cover flow and grid view), and bugs and incompatibilities will always surface from that.
If you have any suggestions you can send them along with the feedback form: http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html.

IPod Pref Pane in iTune 7.0.1 Does Not Work - Do I have too many playlists?

I'd love to be able to submit a screen shot of this. When I connect my iPod (4G, 3G and Nano), the iPod Preference Pane pops up. I have 50,000 songs in my iTunes library and about 3,000 playlists so I always use the "selected playlists" option. What happens, though, when I click the Music tab is that the new screnn only partially paints and none of the select or radio buttons work. If I then select a different tab, the text for it is painted on top of the previous tab.
Bottom line is that I can't change which playlists are going to be updated on my iPod. I've sent a note to Apple about this but, so far, no response.
G5 1.8Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.1)

My PC worked great with iTunes 6, does that require Terminal Services?
hmmmm. i only know of this as being an issue with the iTunes 7.0.x versions. (my guess here is that some of the new functionality that comes with 7.0.x requires Terminal Services ... but i have no idea what functions in particular those would be.)
i guess it's plausible that if you've got some disk damage around the dll, that might interfere with the attempts to replace or reregister it.
if you run a chkdsk over your C: does that find/repair any damage? if so, do you get Terminal Services showing up?
