ITunes and CD options

So I'm ripping CDs, not with iTunes. But I want to play some background music with iTunes. Every time I insert a CD the iTunes page opens up CD information. There appears to be no option in iTunes to ignore the CD or not bring up the CD inforrmation. Do I have any options apart from use WInamp?

Alright, ive been trying to burn Cd's for the past few days, ive tried different brands, and such and nothing seems to be working. When I insert a blank Cd, select audio Cd, and the burn speed. Once i click ok to begin the burning a message comes up where it shows the song being played. it says " Disc burner or software not found." ive never had problems in the past burning cd's, i have the most recent version of itunes..and i dont know what to do.
Need Help ASAP!!!!!!

  • Running iTunes and iPhoto through external hardrive.

    Howzit.
    I need help, my memory capacity is FULL, i would like to run my itunes and iphoto options (completely) through an external hardrive to free up space on my mac.
    Please explain clearly and sytematically I'm a beginner and learner yet.
    Thank you so much

    iTunes is simpler than iPhoto at doing this, as it has the ability in its preferences to use a different folder for organizing music. However, I would warn against doing this, as external hard drives have been known in the past to disconnect, and have problems with Spotlight indexing a lot more frequently than with internal drives. Also to add to that, it makes backing up such files harder as a simple clone of your internal drive won't backup the files you move to the external. You'll have to manually backup those files elsewhere whether DVD, or a second external hard drive. Here's my FAQ on backing up:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    If you are willing to take the risks involved and are prepared to work with them, I believe you can do this by Quitting from iPhoto and making a Unix shortcut to the external drive replacing your existing Pictures folder on the internal drive once the Pictures folder is on the external drive. I'm not sure which command line ln command makes the right type of link, but I'm sure with some research you can find it.
    Edit: your Powerbook will take up to 160 GB internal ATA/IDE 2.5" hard drives. You might want to seriously consider getting that.

  • HT4623 My iPad will not update to 5 at all. I don't even have the option of software update in settings. I've tried to update over iTunes and it doest work there either.

    My iPad will not update to 5 at all. I don't even have the option of software update in settings. I've tried to update over iTunes and it doest work there either.

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • HT1473 I got my MAC PRO installed with iOS lion and since then i'm unable to add music on my iTunes and i tried adding to library option but still it copies and at the end it stays empty, doesn't even open new songs on it. any suggestions ?

    hey,
    I've rebooted my mac before installing new ios lion, so after everything was done i copied my data back to my mac book pro, then simple clicked on adding to library option in itune and it only synced half of the track and rest simply didnt copy, i thought maybe some error occured and i tryed the same procedure again but its not adding more tracks in it. and i just notice when ever i try play a new song through my data it does not open in itune these are the same tracks and songs i been listening to since ages on different note books and pods..
    Help me i've tryed everything but nathing seems to be working. and my itune is uptodated =S

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • When I open iTunes, it will not allow me to preview or download TV shows. The preview and download options are gray and will not let me view them. I have the latest Quicktime so I don't know what's wrong

    When I open iTunes, it will not allow me to preview or download TV shows. The preview and download options are gray and will not let me view them. I have tried installing the latest Quicktime but it tells me that I have to do software update and when I do, Quicktime does not appear to need an update. I have no idea what to do

    Click on your preference and check the Parental tab for possible restrictions.  Open iTunes, then click the iTunes menu, select preferences after the window opens click on the Parental icon, take a look at the content restrictions section.

  • I just updated my iTunes, and I need to delete photos from my iPod 4, and there is a Photo Library that synced to my iPod when i plugged it into my computer, and now it doesnt have the option to delete them off my iPod. How do I get rid of these photos?

    I just updated my iTunes, and I need to delete photos from my iPod 4, and there is a Photo Library that synced to my iPod when i plugged it into my computer, and now it doesnt have the option to delete them off my iPod. How do I get rid of these photos? I have read other questions that say to plug the iPod into the computer and like un-sync it, but I downloaded the new iTunes and it doesnt have a photos tab. Does anyone know how to solve my problem? Please and Thank You, Megan!

    Just what did you do to the computer?
    It sounds like the iPodf is seening the iTunes libary as a new libary.

  • I recently updated my phone to IOS 8.0.2 and now it wont turn on it just says to connect to itunes and when i do the only option it gives me is to restore iphone. It says it will delete all my media but i didn't do a back up what should i do?

    I recently updated my iphone 5 to IOS 8.0.2 and now it wont turn on it just says to connect to itunes and when i do the only option it gives me is to restore iphone because it is in "recovery mode". It says it will delete all my media but i didn't do a back up and i don't want to lose my photos, what should i do? (I never used iCloud to back them up either).

    If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?

  • My computer has just prompted me to download the newest version of Itunes and now there doesn't seem to be any option to "add folder" to library, just "add file to library" so have to do one song at a time and is very time consuming!!  Help?!

    Use CTRL+B to put the top menu bar back on screen. Add File to Library and Add Folder to Library are both under File.

  • HT203163 I am not able to access to iphone updates/store; as secure link to itunes store failed. I tried to turn firewall off, reinstall itunes and other troubleshoot options but none of them works.....

    Update:  I tried the "Toshiba Recovery Wizard" after everything else either fizzled out or hung up. After going all the way thru the recovery process (up to 100%), I finally got an error message.....it didn't work. And now, when I fire up the computer, I don't even get to that menu with the recovery options....the only thing I can boot into is the screens with the various ways to run your OS (in "safe mode", "safe mode with networking", etc).
    I'm not a techie, but I'm guessing at this point, the part of my hard drive that got damaged in the fall was, at the very least, the partition with the recovery data. Couple that with the fact that this cheapo Toshiba laptop didn't even come with recovery disk (or ANY kind of disk, even basic installation software!), I'm screwed: I don't see any way to get a workable computer now without some kind of disk to boot from. So NOW my concern is more about spending the $$ for a new OS and THEN finding out the hard drive has other problems too...is broken in some other way to boot.
    How to check this? As I said, I did run "chkdsk" back when I could get into the recovery menu and run the fix-it programs. It didn't note any problems. Thinking of taking this opportunity to upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista (which I never liked), but I have to know that the computer is otherwise ok....how to be sure?

  • HT202213 Have newest version of ITunes and a new AppleTV. ITunes File Home Sharing only shows option to turn off home sharing.  No home sharing icon and Apple TV claims home sharing is not turned on.  Where is this advanced menu?

    Cannot get home sharing to work with my new apple TV.  Have the latest version of ITunes and the apple TV is connected to my wi-fi network.  The instruction page says to go to the Advanced menu option of ITunes and choose Home Sharing.  This option does not exist.  The closest I can find is under the File option>Home Sharing where my only option is to turn off home sharing.  There is no home sharing icon and Apple TV insist that the home sharing is not turned on.
    I must be missing something obvious here.

    I have m4v files that have subtitles and sound options they play fine on my computer in itunes and but  when i watch them on my apple tv there is video but no sound ... why ? all my other videos are fine and they in mp4 format.

    Mov is a container format, you'd need to look at the codec used by the movie file inside the container to know whether it will work with the Apple TV or not.

  • HT1923 I am trying to run iTunes and have been advised that i must uninstall and install again. However, in Control Panel, I don't have the option the uninstall. HELP!!!

    I am trying to run iTunes. When I do I get this message "Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes and install iTunes again. Error 2 (Wiindows error 2)" . However, in Control Panel, there isn't an option to remove or unistall iTunes, only an option to repair.
    Now, when I dowloaded iTunes, i saved it to my flash drive so that i can have it with me whereever I go. I am not sure if the problem stems from there. I also did this so as not to save it on my work computer but still be able to run it from my flash drive.
    Please HELP. I miss my music and podcast.

    This solved my question by b noir  on Aug 26, 2011 7:23 PM
    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
