Itunes won't let me import any CDs

I have had an ipod (not the same ipod, but an ipod)for 3 years now. Never in that whole time have I ever had this problem.
A few days ago I got a CD that I wanted to import. i have done this too many times to count. When I went to do it, it asked if I wanted to import it and, as usual, I said yes. As soon as I did, there was a bit of a delay, and then a window popped up saying that Itunes had stopped working and needed to close. I didn't think much of it and I went to try again. It did the same thing. It did it again and again and again; i must have tried it 50 times. Then I went into Windows Media Player and it let me do it successfully. Yes! Success, right? Wrong. I went to "add a file" in itunes and clicked on the file i wanted (again, i had done this tons of times) and it said it needed to convert, which i knew, so i said yes to this conversion and then the same window that came up all those times before appeared again. I tried to import a different CD, thinking maybe it was just that one, but it wasn't. It has happened with at least 5 different CDs i have tried and I am SO irritated, I have no idea what is wrong. Please help me!
I have asked several people I know who have lots of experiance with itunes and they have all said to get into and then close itunes, and i've done that (over and over again, may i add) and it has nothing to do with that. Someone said it was somethign with the conversion with windows media player; it doesn't work even without converting! no one is giving me any information i need and now i'm starting to worry it's something wrong with my computer. then again, it works with WMP so who knows. please help!!!

We'd better check your version number, lynz. In iTunes, go "Help > About iTunes" and wait for the version number to scroll up from the bottom.
If you've got an iTunes 10.1.0.54, we need to get you updated to 10.1.0.56. It won't show for you in Apple Software update if you already have a 10.1.54 installed, so download the 10.1.0.56 installer from the Apple Website, as per the following document:

  • ITunes won't let me import songs from folders

    hey for some reason iTunes won't let me import some songs, but it will others. I've checked and there is no difference between the songs, they're both MP3's, they have the same quality and they're even by the same artist!
    Any ideas why and how I can fix it are helpful.

    I having the same problem. I noticed that some videos were missing from my itunes TV Shows playlist. Also, when I tried downloading a file into my ipod, I got an error message stating that the file was not compatiable with my iPod. Only I got the file from iTunes! I've tried deleting everything and reloading with the same results. It will not upload several files. Most of which are already AAC. I've tried adding, importing, and copy and paste with all resulting in failure.
    This is becoming a total pain in the rear. If it's not one thing, it's another. I mean every since iTunes 7, the bugs keep mounting, and that before I switch to a Vista OS.

  • Newest version of Itunes won't let me import CDs

    I recently installed the newest version of Itunes (10.6.1). Now every time I open it, I get the message: "Itunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CDs you will have to reinstall Itunes." I have to click OK, and then Itunes opens. Also, all the music I have previously imported from CDs is listed under "unknown Album," without artist or track number information. However, I do still have the files in My Music.
    Possible related issues: I wanted to install the latest version because Itunes was not recognizing my ipod. I did have some trouble with the install; something about Windows not recognizing this download as safe, even though I got it from apple.com. I proceeded anyway. I have also had trouble with Itunes taking up too much space on my computer, and having to split my library between my C and D drives. In addition, my computer is 6 years old.
    I am going to try to install Itunes again; is there anything I can do to make sure it works this time, i.e. recognizes all of my imported music?

    This worked for me:
    Find your added songs in your playlists (you'll find them there)
    Select them
    Right click and 'Make version for MP3'
    As a little miracle you'll now find the album in your album and number-tab.
    The album now contains two versions of each song. Delete one and the album remains.

  • Itunes won't let me add any more videos for my ipod classic

    What is the file suffix of the video files you are trying to add to iTunes? What application did you use to create them?

  • TS2446 iTunes won't let me download any apps even free ones

    My iTunes will let me log in but I can't download any apps at all. It says there is a problem with my billing even though there isn't. Help

    For one reason or another, most likely you got a debt due to an unpaid order. It happens.

    When i first got my ipod and itunes it was all good. I had imported over a thousand song on my ipod. Now whenever I try to import a song from a cd or already on my computer an error comes up saying "An unkown error occured [-223]". I have tried updating the itunes and uninstalling and reinstalling it. no dice. Is there any hope for me?

  • ITunes won't let me import audio files to my library

    I try and drag a song from my music file into iTunes and it just doesn't do anything. I've also tried File > Add file to library but that still doesn't work.
    It doesn't give any sort of error or anything. Just doesn't do anything at all.

    That is the usual reaction when iTunes encounters a file that it finds to be incompatible. Assuming it is a valid MP3 that works in other players, the problem can usually be corrected by treating with a 3rd party tag cleanup program such as MP3 Validator.

  • 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.

  • HT1420 itunes won't let me authorize my computer. There is no option for this in the store menu.

    I recently got a new computer and reached my limit of devices, so I deauthorized all. Now itunes won't let me authorize any of my computers. I've been through the help and there is simply no option for this. Please help.

    I have an Iphone 5  6.01.  I have a notice on my app store that I have an update. Tried to update, but it won't.  Connected to Itunes and tried to download update for App.  I can't do that either.  It won't let me update any of the apps.  What is wrong?

    My husband and I are using the same iTunes account on all mac & pc computers, but the libraries are different on each machine.  We always manually manage our music (no auto sync).  iTunes is up to date on the PCs.  My husband uses our joint iTunes account on his pc, but once again, has a different collection in his library from those on the other machines.  He can't load any music from his PC to his iphone 4.  I can load music from my mac library to my iphone 4s, but cannot load from my pc library to my iphone 4s.  How can I switch my main library that it syncs with from the mac to the pc?
    Thanks

  • Help! My iPod touch won't let me download any apps. A message keeps coming up saying "This Apple ID cannot be used for the iTunes store. Please enter another Apple ID" I changed my ID to see if that would work but the same message still comes up.

    Where are you physically located?
    What country's Store are you using?
    The two have to be the same and the payment method for your account also has to be associated (billing address, where iTunes gift card was purchased) with that country.
    Has the ID(s) worked before for purchases for this country's store?

  • I used to be able to download files from the Harddrive of my Sony Handycam, but now it won't let me import them while going through "log and transfer."  I have tried to update my settings, but this doesn't seem to work.  Any help would be much appreciated

    Hard Drive:  The Hard Drive is on my camera (Sony Handycam)
    Just needed some info on what is going on with your particular system.
    Knowing the exact camera model will also assist us.
    If this camera is standard AVCHD you should be able to connect with USB to Mac with FCE open and use Log and Transfer without all the fiddling around converting etc.
    What FCE does during ingest is convert files to AIC. (Apple Intermediate Codec)
    FCE cannot read the individual files in the BDMV folder, that's why all the converting is required when you use that method.
    BTW: regards formatting drives/cards/memory on cameras; it is wise to use the actual device to format rather than a computer. This is a prime cause of read/write goof ups with solid state media. This applies to still or video cameras.
    Keeping the COMPLETE card/memory structure in tact is vital for successful transfers.

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?
