Itunes won't let me convert a 30 sec. song to AAC to make a ringtone.

it says "you can make various ringtones on itunes" or something like that when i click on it. lol.
i download my songs from limewire to itunes.

For iTunes purchased content that is also licensed by the record labels and copyright holders to be purchased and used as a ringtone, not for songs acquired illegally via a source such as Limewire.

Itunes won't let me drag-n-drop .m4r files into the 'TONES' library (for ringtones)

Can anyone help? I have created ringtones by converting my song to AAC, then shortening it to 40 seconds, then saving it as .m4r file extention. I have changed my preferences to show "Tones" library in my iTunes. Only problem is, iTunes won't accept the ringtone when I try to add it. I tried to add it by grabbing it from Finder and dropping it into iTunes...but nothing adds??? Any suggestions?

In order to drag and drop, you need to have the box next to "Manually manage..." on the iPad summary pane checked.
This was changed (in V 10.0?)
Items dragged to the iPad/iPod will still get copied over, even when not manually managing.
Select the tabs across top and the dragged items show up at the very bottom under *Manually added*.

ITunes won't let me transfer all of the songs on my iPod to my library!

Okay, I have had an iTunes account & iPod on a desktop computer for the past 3 years that my parents set up. (I get a monthly allowance that's linked to my parent's credit card.) I just downloaded iTunes onto my new laptop (this computer), and followed instructions to transfer my music from my iPod to my laptop library. It only worked for about half of my songs, and told me that this computer (the laptop) was not authorized to play the songs that had not transferred. I re-authorized the computer, to no avail. Anyone able to help?
(Also, on my iTunes display, there is no "shopping cart", just "store" and "purchased". Why is this?)

For some unknown reason, Itunes won't let me edit Audio info

So I recently synced 1891 songs to my iPhone 5. Whilst the process was completed successfully I noticed where in my itunes library all of the artists were organised accordingly. But suddenly, due to some kind of idiotic magic a lot of my music had missing information/wrong information. Oh well, this happens I thought placidly believing that all I had to do was fix the info myself. But lo and behold for some unknown reason Itunes won't let me edit any of the info of the music on my Iphone 5. Why? I don't know. But I know for a fact that none of the music is "Read-Only" because I check and I did the same process with the same files on a different computer. My new computer (currently using) is authorized and everything seems to be in order, I have no idea why this isn't working but some help would be appreciated. Please. I'm sick of having to read forum after forum after doing the simplest things on Itunes, please someone from Apple answer my question with efficiency, or create a less convulted program

Sounds like the ID3 tags are messed up on those songs.
iTunes imports using v2.2 tags. Convert the tags to v2.3 and try adding the artwork.
Right-click > convert ID3 tags
Also, make sure they are not read-only files.

ITunes won't let me edit CD and song information?

I've added some cd's to my library and iTunes won't let me edit song information or add artwork.

There is a much easier way of solving this rather than converting all of the tracks to AAC..
1) Go to where the album folder is stored on your PC and right click on the folder.
2) Click on properties and unselect the box that says 'read only'. After clicking apply, click OK to confirm changes.
3) Now iTunes should let you edit the song info and add artwork

ITunes won't let me drag and drop music

I have converted files from YouTube to mp3 and then put them in my iTunes library... but iTunes won't let me put them into my phone. I have manually manage music selected and it has allowed me to do so in the past (maybe 2 weeks ago). I'm just really frustrated now because I don't like syncing my entire library because iTunes somehow manages to forget the majority of my music's artwork which is important since I paid for all but 3 of the songs in my library. Help?

Also, you may have to do this since the iPod may think the rebuilt computer is a new computer/iTunes library. Otherwise, you will only be able to manage videos and music manually.

It depends on what iPhone you have.
If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.

If possible you need to upgrade OS X. However, what you can upgrade to is dependent on what your Mac hardware and configuration is which you have not provided in your profile.

Syncing music via iTunes is only one way: from iTunes to your iPod. If you need to copy the music from your iPod back to your PC, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to do this.

As long as you don't need all the bells and whistles of the iTunes Store such as Ping, and don't need to sync an iOS device running iOS 4.x, then iTunes 9.2.1 should work for you. It should be available via Software Update, but if not, you can still get it here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056
but it would be best to upgrade your Mac to Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6, since it's probable that eventually the iTunes Store will no longer support iTunes 9.x.
Regards.
P.S. Mac OS X 10.4 was discontinued three and a half years ago, so yes, it's getting rather long in the tooth. Cheers.

I purchased a song and it shows up in the song list with an exclamation point on the sie of it. It says the song could not be found. I have done a search and can't find it but iTunes won't let me download or buy it again. Help!!

Hello levon10
Just delete the song and then go through the process of downloading the purchase again.

Acrobat/adobe won't let me convert files

It keeps telling me I have to buy the program. I pay for the Cloud on a monthly subscription and I really need to get this file converted so I can make changes for a meeting tomorrow!

I am logged in and am registered. It will simply not let me convert most PDF's to word, whether I open it with adobe, acrobat or pro 11. When I download documents from the school library, I can convert them, anything else I can't. And I really need to. What else can I try?

I burned disks of previously purchased content that is not available thru iTunes anymore but the latest ver. of iTunes won't let me copy this same content onto a new comp. Is there a way to do this or maybe an earlier ver. of iTunes to download?

I am trying to change my country but iTunes won't let me

iTunes won't let me buy from my original country as the credit card is invalid in that country. When I try to change the country it keeps reverting back to the original country. How do I change the country without opening a new iTunes account?

To buy items from an iTunes Store in another country you must have a valid credit card drawn on a local bank, and an address in the host country.
