ITunes will not copy some new cd's cda files?????

My iTunes will transfer some cda files from a new CD. ANy clues on possible causes ????

The .cda files are just tiny (44 byte) index files that are used on an audio CD.  They are not the music, although it is a peculiarity of Windows that if you use its file system to look at an audio CD, all you see are the CDA files!
If you are trying to rip/import the songs into your iTunes library, you can use iTunes.  Look in iTunes Help at the article "Import songs from CDs."

    Do you have a new Apple ID to use in NZ? If not open iTunes Store. Log out of your old Apple ID, then try to login. Select Create Apple ID from the dialog that appears. Make a new Apple ID for NZ with a NZ email address. Once that is approved and verified, log into the iTunes Store with the new Apple ID. This should fix all other issues.

  • ITunes will not copy certain songs to my iPhone - I'm "not authorized for it on this computer"

    Hi.  I get an error when I try to transfer certain songs from my computer to my iPhone.  I get the following error, "(song name) was not copied to iPhone "____" because you are not authorized for it on this computer." For the particular songs for which this error comes up, I purchased them many years ago.  I had them on my PC and transferred them to my iPhone just fine.  I recently got rid of the PC and bought a Mac Mini (yay!) and copied my files over to the new computer. Then, I connected my iPhone to the Mini and synced it.  Then, I noticed that there were some songs on my phone that I didn't want on it so I unchecked them in the Library on the Mini and chose the "sync only checked songs" option and synced again.  Nothing changed.  So, then I did an Autofill thinking that would make the selected songs on my Mini and matched the songs I wanted on my iPhone.  That's when I noticed the songs missing on my iPhone (songs that I had selected on my Mini and wanted on the iPhone).  I've never really been able to figure out how to work iTunes so I'm sure I've done something wrong.  I can't decifer the error message so your help would be greatly appreciated.  (I've authorized the Mini.)
    Any ideas what the problem might be?  Thanks in advance.

    Hi there!
    I've a very similar & the same problem but for me this has been happening ever since iTunes 7.1.5, so not exclusively since 7.2 was launched
    In addition to the same problem you're having, iTunes will not sync any of my converted DVD movies and several video podcasts giving me the same error message you mentioned. If it try to play these video's out side of iTunes with QuickTime, I get 'Error -36: An I/O Error' warning and thats it, but I can play with any other media player including the dreaded Windows Media Player! If I copy these files on to a separate HHD, Flash Stick or on to another PC (i.e. so they’re played from not in the iTunes folder in my documents) they all work fine and oddly also with QuickTime, so I'm happy the files are not corrupt. I'm afraid to attempt to play any remaining video's that I managed to sync sometime before this problem in iTunes because when I do, its then that I can never use it again and it gets removed from my iPod!
    I can't find anything on this problem anywhere, and I don't know where to go to get help from Apple not that I’m sure they’d be too helpful?
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Regards

  • Itunes will not sync my new music to my ipod touch

    so i plugged in my ipod touch into my new computer and had it transfer my purchases instead of erasing my media. then i used this application to put my songs that were already on my ipod but not actually purchased on itunes onto itunes. then i added some new songs onto itunes from cds then pressed sync.itunes said it had synchronized the songs onto my ipod, yet when i looked in the library on my ipod the songs were not there. PLEASE HELP!

    You can only sync with one iTunes library. The iPod sees the new computer as a new library. To make the new computer your syncing computer you need to (assuming all the media is in the iTunes library):
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking one the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    If you do not want to change syncing computers you can manage music and videos among different computer by:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers

  • Itunes will not detect my new nano. HELP! I have a dell with vista. my old shuffles work fine with itunes, but it will no longer detect my nano. Apple says my nano is fine.

    I've worked with Apple 2 times. The first time we spent 2 hours on the phone uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, quicktime and other software and it worked for a while. Now, once again, itunes will not recognize my 6th generation nano. My old shuffle works fine. I sent the nano to apple and they shipped it back stating it was fine after upgrading firmware. However, it still will not be recognized from itunes. Please help, I'm totally lost and disappointed after spending money and so much wasted time on this thing.....

    What Mac or mobile device are you using, with what operating system?

  • Itunes will not read some of me music from my external harddrive?????

    I keep getting a(!) everytime I try to open up music that is in wma file, what do I need to do???

    a wma file is a Microsoft file. it will only play in Windows media player and afew other players that have basicly paid Microsoft a fee to have there players able to play wma files. iTunes will not play wma files at all BUT itunes makes it easy as pie to convert those files into something it can play long as there not protected wma's you may have bought online. First goto edit, preferencs. Once there in the settings, hit the "Advance" tab at top, you will see 3 more tabs appear below. hit the "Import" tab there you will most likly want to set it to "MP3" so you will be able to play all songs u import or rip from CDs on iTunes and other apps. Below that you can set the bit rate. after that just rightclick all the songs with the ! beside them and select Import or convert section to MP3

  • ITunes could not copy to the iPhone because the file could not be read

    So here we go again, just put some newly imported from CD songs on my iPhone the other night no problem. Updated iTunes and now I get iTunes could not copy "whatever" to the iPhone "myphone" because the file could not be read. just for fun i removed one of the songs already on the phone and received the error trying to put it back on. I also just updated to iOS 8.3. is it the phone or itunes?

    Two possibilities come to mind.
    Check your source hard drive for errors, right-click on the drive holding the library, click Properties, tools, check for errors, scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors...
    Or...
    Repair Security Permissions
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
    If it won't let you change the permissions use the Owner tab to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges.

  • Quicktime X will not play some Apple Mpeg 4 Movie Files

    Hi,
    Having a strange issue.  Quicktime X will not play some of my Apple Mpeg 4 Movie files anymore.
    The files open fine in Quicktime 7, but not Quicktime X. 
    I receive the error message "The document could not be opened. A required Codec is not available"
    I have installed other codecs (Flip4Mac as well as Perian), but no luck.  Have re-installed Quicktime X (10.1) and software is all up to date (running Lion 10.7.2).  The movie file works fine if I import it to iTunes as well.
    Called AppleCare Support and they could not come up with an solution.  Does anyone here have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    (BTW, I just realized this was an MPEG-4 topic - my issue wasn't necessairly centered around that architecture)
    Yes, I naturally assumed that you were having problems at some point with MPEG-4 Part 2 or Part 10 content.
    Since I mentioned "from," I should have mentioned what the codec/wrapper was (it was captured into a .mov file using DV/NTSC via "Capture Now" in Final Cut Pro studio V7, via an analog-to-digital converter).  What makes this confusing is that files captured with the same settings sometimes open right into QuickTime X with their audio/video intact, and at other times, only the audio shows up (where upon opening that same file in QT 7, we can see both audio and video). Interestingly, the problem files icon shows up on the desktop as the generic movie icon, whereas the "normal" files' icon is the first frame of the video.
    May we assume at this point that the source video data is DV-25 with 16-bit Interger (Linear PCM) audio sampled at 48.0 KHz and it is the scratch MOV file that may or may not open/play correctly in QT X but always opens correctly in QT 7?
    Ultimately, though, this is an unimportant point in solving my issue. Why? Well, if I can successfully open the problem files in Compressor (e.g., see/hear the video/audio), then I can theoretically re-compress (or "re-wrap?") them to whatever codec I want - ideally one 100% compatible with QuickTime X.
    I took a test file, placed it into Compressor, and applied the DV/NTSC setting to it (yes, I know, the same setting the file already had). After re-encoding (which took very little time), the file was perfectly executable in QuickTime X - both Audio and video showing as to be expected, and no real difference in quality (not that VHS source is quality to begin with).
    This sounds as if the "problem" file's container may be the source of the problem. As I don't know if your Compressor test is passing the data through to a new faile container, I would make an additional test here. If your version of QT 7 is keyed for pro use, I would simply use the "Save As..." File menu option to to create a new file container. In fact, I would probably just create a "reference" file rather than another "standalone" file here—a very, very fast operation—and then open the secondary file in the QT 7 "Properties" window to ensure all of the data tracks (1 video, 2 audio, and 1 timing) are present. If all looks good, I would then try opening the reference file in QT X to see it it now plays. (I.e., whether you use a reference file here or a standalone file, the object is to see if the QT X player will now recognize all contained data tracks whether resourced by reference or physically contained in/via the new wrapper.)
    Could this have been answered without knowing the complete "from" specs? Probably… which is why I posted to the help forum in the first place - the goal being some other reader may have had the same issue, and had a handy solution or suggestion, saving me the time of experimentation (what forums are great for).
    I don't know about you, but I would still be looking at profile/level combination settings to see if an an assumed MPEG-4/AVC video and/or AAC audio settings had been properly encoded for QT playback.
    I have no doubt that there's a technical difference between the files that created this issue in the first place. But, the solution of re-compressing with an identical codec did the trick, which for this project is good enough for me.
    Recompressing data is slower than rewrapping data which is slower than rereferencing the data pointers. But, if your solution works, then that is all that matters.

  • ITunes will not import some .mp4 content, metadata problem?

    I have been importing movies and TV shows for years into iTunes so that my disabled son can watch them on his AppleTV but lately I have been having a problem getting some to go into iTunes.  This batch is part of season 9 and 10 of Smallville.  I imported about half of the two seasons no problem but the other half will not import.  I have ripped all my movies and TV episodes off of disks that I own using Handbreak and WinX DVD Ripper for Mac and it has worked just fine for over 1050 movies and 6200 TV episodes and I was able to import all of season 9 and 10 of Smallville into my laptop's iTunes no problem but on my son's iMac no luck.  Both computers are running Mac OS 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.6.1(7) and all content is on two 3TB external hard drives.  That is two external drives for the laptop and two for the iMac.  After burning, content on one external drive is copied to the other computer's external drive and imported to iTunes on that computer. This way I have a backup copy of all my iTunes video content and two completely independent iTunes and AppleTV's.  But on my son's computer 16 episodes will not go in.  I "command O" like normal but no import bar is noted and no content can be found.  I believe that this problem is due to metadata content.  I am also have a little trouble getting some TV content to switch from Music or Movie Media Kind to TV Media Kind and I know that this is a metadata problem.  Also some of the episodes have been in iTunes before either from the Apple Store or ripped and then deleted for one reason or the other.  I therefore believe that there is a file in iTunes that is telling the program that the episodes I now want to import are already in iTunes and therefore should not go in twice.  I have tried changing the episode names and importing, no luck and I even edited an episode using MPEG Streamclip, removing some content, and then resaving it under another name, no luck either.  Any ideas would be helpful.  I know the Media Kind problem has been address before but now I cannot find it so a link to that discussion would also be helpful.  Thank you for any help.

    I have the same issue here. My daughter has an iPod Touch4 and I have been importing mp4's with no problems up until the last iTunes update. Now I get nothing. No message, not activity, nothing. Either this is a new bug in iTunes or they have now eliminated the import ability.
    I am sick and tired of apple and their hand-holding, big-brother coddling. My daughters iPod is the last Apple product we have and now I think it's time to totally part ways with Apple and go all in with Android. We have already converted all our phones from Apple to Android. The Samsung Galaxy Player looks like a great replacement to the iPod.

  • Help, please.. ITunes will not copy all my music to IPod

    I have a 2nd generation iPod Nano and I'm having some trouble. I somehow accidentally (apparently I'm a moron) restored my iPod so that everything was erased. I have my library backed up on disc, but all my songs are still showing in the ITunes Library. I have 575 songs. When I sync my iPod to ITunes, it gives me an error message saying "Some songs could not be copied because it is not authorized for this computer (100 problems)", something along those lines. After that, it will only copy 340 songs from my ITunes library to my iPod.
    Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can get all my music transferred back to my iPod?

    Have you authorized your computer to the iTunes Store account under which those tracks were purchased? You can either play one of the tracks (or additional tracks if any were purchased through a different iTunes Store account) or use the Authorize command under the Store menu in iTunes.

  • Copy paste clipboard Microsoft 2007 - It retains images I copy before and will not copy a new image

    I have Windows XP and Microsoft office 2007.  I had to choose 2010 forum because there was no 2007...sorry 
    I am trying to copy images from the Internet and I am able to copy the image but it will paste the first image I copy. It is not happening with the text though, only images. I highlight and copy a different image and it will paste again the first opne I
    copied. I have also done it through keyboard shortcuts and it will not do what it needs to do.
    I have copy pasted same images in the body of my aol emails and they copy ok. They also copy ok on the clipboard shortcut I made for clipboard , but it refuses to copy them on a new file in Microsoft word document. This started happening about a week ago.
    I have not installed a new program so I don't know the reason.
    I have defragmented, scan disk. I did scan disk simple and the one that recovers bad sectors. Rebooted computer, cleaned history, cleaned temp files. I am not very computer inclined, but I do know how to do these last I listed and I also have run Norton
    If anyone replies to this message keep in mind I can follow instructions, but if they are too intricate I might mess up :(  I wanted to know if there is a way of resetting Microsoft (I dont have the CD anymore) without uninstalling it. Any help yoou
    can throw my way will be appreciated. If there is anything else you need to know please let me know. I will be checking often.
    Thank you in advance.
    Ivee

    Hi,
    It's ok you don't have the CD, just go to the Start Menu > All Programs > Microsoft Office > Microsoft Office Tools, and then click on
    Microsoft Office Diagnostics. Run Diagnostics to proceed with diagnosis and repair.
    Check if it helps after running the Diagnostics.

  • I tried to download the newest version for iTunes and now it is saying something about Apple Mobile Device. And now my iTunes will not complete the new download because of this. What does this mean???

    I tried to download the newest version for iTunes and now it is saying something about apple mobile device. Never heard of this before and now it will not finish downloading because of this. What is it?? What do i need to do to get itunes to download onto my computer again??

    I got most of it done but now it is not letting me delete my C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple
    It says that file is open in another program....What do i need to do to delete that?
    Do you currently have the iCloud control panel installed? If so, uninstall that. Can you do the deletion now?

  • Itunes will not continue to new track

    hi all,
    I have just opened itunes today and played a song from my collection, once the track has finished itunes stops and will not play the next track automatically. Also if a track is playing and i click next from the controlls >> the track stops.
    Any ideas how to solve this? thanks

    The usual reason for the track not advancing ist that the little boxes to the left of the track name are not checked.
    You can check all your tracks by using Ctrl+click in one of the boxes in your library view.
    Or use edit>select all and right click on the selction - check all should be an options.

  • My iTunes will not sync any new songs that I've put in onto my phone.

    My iphone 5s hasn't been backed up to my Icloud because my Icloud doesn't have enough space BUT I don't see how that correlates to Itunes not syncing my new music onto my phone. I have around 8 GB left on my phone so there shouldn't be a problem. Even when it says that it has synced, I'll go onto my music on my phone and it won't have those songs in the recently added playlist or on my phone at all.
