ITunes doesn't adds all files from folder?

Dear Apple,
I'm having *itunes 8.1.1*,and i do like this;
file -> add folder to library (or something, it's in dutch).
And he only adds 397 files of 1030 in that folder.
How come? *Please help me!*
Tom.

nope, nothing happens
Well if they will not add one at a time, then adding a folder full of them will not work either. So...
Are you sure they are MP3 files? If so, see if they play in another player, such as Windows Media Player. If they play in WMP but not in iTunes, then the problem may be minor corruption in the MP3 headers, which can be cleaned up in a tool such as MP3 Valdator, as Garth mentioned.
If they will not play in either iTunes or WMP, then you can suspect that they are not valid song files.

  • ITunes doesn't import all files from xml library

    Hi, yesterday I did some changes on mi library. I have 3.000 music files and i didn't want to change the files path manually, so I edited the .xml file, damaget .itl and tried to reimport. It worked, but iTunes didnť import all of my songs, just few of them (about 82) and I don't know how.
    The problem is, that I have backup, backup of original iTunes library, but files are not in "old locations", i moved them to new folder and deleted the old - when I tried to fetch missing files in iTunes, it didn't find anything and i had to search it manually.
    Can someone help me? Thanks!

    Restore your pre-damaged .itl file.
    Select an album's worth of tracks.
    Run my script FindTracks and point it at the new media folder.
    If it works, select the whole library and repair the rest.
    If it doesn't work explain further about what you've reorganized.

  • Itunes doesn't add all the songs from my library

    Hi,
    Had to reinstall Itunes and now the program doesn't add all the songs from my library (roughly 4,000 songs). All that is added is maybe 20 songs, and always the same ones. It has worked perfectly before.
    I have tried to "pull" all the artist folders into the Itunes window, but it doesn't work. I have tried to set another folder as the Itunes library and then choose "add new folder", but only those 20 songs are added. I have made sure so that none of the files are copy protected or "read-only".
    Please, help!
    Best regards,
    Jonas

    Ok, I deleted the two files and upon startup iTunes did run that search wizard for music files. However, it only found 4 songs that are located on local harddisks, and did not (as far as I could see on the network status) even try to search on the network harddisk.
    One more thing though, that I forgot to mention before. I tried to solve this situation by installing an earlier version of iTunes... 4.6 i think, but when I tried to run the program it told me something like "Cannot read the file iTunes library.itl since it was created by a later version of iTunes". Where can i find that file, and should i remove it and try to add the songs with iTunes 4.6 instead?
    (Thanks so much for all your help!)

    Well
    I'm having problems initializing a java.lang.String as ora_java.jobject.
    I was able to import in forms my class ,(wich works ok when tested like standalone java class,it returns all the filenames from a folder),a package was generated on the form for it.
    But,I've got to pass it the folder name as a String.
    I've imported java.lang.String as ora_java.jobject,and a package was generated on the form.
    When I try to call string.new('c:\work');
    it won't compile,it says invalid reference to variable String.
    What should I do?Is there any predefined Type in ora_java package for java.lang.String?
    Thanks,

  • I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library.  However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

    I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library.  However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library. 
    I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over.  Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over?  I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another.  Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

    I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    Trying to download photos from IPHONE, IPAD to IPHOTO in IMAC after installing new hard drive.
    How did you import the photos to iPad and iPhone?
    If the photos have been synced to the iPhone and iPad using iTunes, you cannot sync them back.
    See this document:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures in the Camera Roll or Saved Photos from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device:
    If your photos are not in the Camera Roll on your devices, save them to the Camera Roll, share them to the Photo Stream, mail the photos, or, if you have iPhoto on the devices, use iTunes Photo Sharing.
    http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnkee26bc1
    Save photos to your computer using iTunes
    Connect your iOS device to your computer.
    Tap a photo, album, event, web journal, or slideshow and tap Share> iTunes.
    Tap Selected, or change the photos you want to save (if you are saving a slideshow skip to step 4):
    Select different photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap one or more photos, and tap Next.
    Select a range of photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
    Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
    In iTunes, click the button for your device and click Apps at the top of the window.
    Below File Sharing, select iPhoto (in Apps).
    Select the Shared Photos folder under iPhoto Documents.
    Click Save To and select the location on your computer where you want to save the items.
    To view your photos, go to the Finder and look in the location you selected above.

    You've sycned other content via your computer's iTunes to the phone ?
    You can sync photos to your phone via your computer's iTunes : connect your phone to your computer, click on its icon towards the top left of the iTunes screen, and select Photos on the left-hand side of the screen :
    Photos that you sync from a computer can't be deleted directly in the phone's Photos app, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync - so you will need to include all photos that you want from your computer in each photo sync.
