ITunes won't let me put music from Frostwire on it
My computer had a trojan on it, but luckily I got it off using Malaware. After I got it off, iTunes will not let me put music from Frostwire on it anymore. Ive done this with hundreds of songs before the virus, but now it won't seem to let me.
Please help me!
Thanks!
I'm not surprised to read you got some malware. It may have come from a Frostwire download.
Downloading "free" p2p music isn't so shiny anymore, is it.
My advice is to get your music from legal sources, and you will have no trouble adding them to itunes.
If I am misunderstanding Frostwire and it's a legal music downloading service, I am sure their support forums can help.

HELP! iTunes won't let me put music on my iPod
I need help, whenever i try to transfer my music on to my iPod, for itunes, it won't let me put it on my iPod.
I NEED HELP!!!!!
Windows XPOkay, I see.
That's most likely because you are automatically syncing your iPod.
If you click on your iPod in the Source List of iTunes, and go to the "Music" tab, you are probably selected for "Sync", and either selected playlists, or all songs.
On the Syncing optoin, you cannot drag files to your iPod without setting up your iPod for manually managing, perhaps just temporarily.
See this for details on manually managing your iPod:

I have been trying to add music files to my library however the button is alway OPEN, and not add. I have tried updating my itunes, dragging and dropping, and again trying to open it in add file. Please help! I don't know what else to do.
christyIt wants to erase your iPhone because you are not syncing it to the same library.
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
iCloud only stores a copy of your non-iTunes purchases if you subscribe to Match. It still isn't the best way to get your music to a new computer. That's
(if you use iTunes' default preferences settings): Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder. -
ITunes won't let me add music from my computer
I can't add any new files from my computer to itunes
Justine,
What happens when you try to add new music? Are the files compatible with iTunes? See this article for more information on adding content to your iTunes library.

Iphone on Itunes won't let me select music
Got a new computer, all was going well. Now I find that when I plug in my Iphone Itunes won't let me select music folders to sync, it is all grayed out. It sees the Iphone , charges it and lets me change applications. Just not music or Photos. I removed Itunes then dowloaded it to see if that would help. It didn't.
The iPhone does not support disk mode, and in regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred to an iPhone from a single computer only. When syncing iTunes content and transferring photos from a different computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from another computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
Did you transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer along with photos and all other important data? -

My new iPhone 5 shows up in iTunes, but won't let me put pictures or music onto my phone. They are both under the same iTunes account and it let me transfer stuff onto my old iPhone 4 before. I don't know why it won't let me now. Both are updated also... Please help!!
Thank you so much! I can't believe I didn't think to check that. I synced it to iTunes, but I didn't think to see if those were checked or not and they weren't. I checked them, and resynced and its working perfectly. Thanks so much!!!

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. -
Hey there,
I have had my iPhone 5 since October and every time I would do an update the phone would crash and I had to start from scratch every time (thank god for back ups). So I finally got the chance to switch out my phone at an apple store about a month ago. Since then though, I have not been able to sync any music on to my phone. I have tried the newest versions of software possible, tried restoring my phone from the last back up of the old phone and other various things I could think of. Even when I got to the "on this iPhone" tab, it shows me all the music that is supposed to be on there. Problem is that it is all unselected and it won't let me select them. Any help would be very much appreciated.
CheersGrey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen simply shows that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists". . If you want to access your iPod directly, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to "Manually manage songs and Playlists" in the iPod preferences. For more detail see this tutorial: Managing Your Songs Manually
One thing to be aware of with manually updating is that the iPod also has to be manually ejected before the "Do Not Disconnect" message will go away. Safely disconnect iPod
For info: iPod 101
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod. -
Out of no where, itunes won't let me add music to my ipod touch.
I have itunes 10.4.1 and ipod is 4.2.1. Please help, this is so frustrating! It won't let me drag and drop and it won't work by right clicking either.
I had a similar problem recently after an update. Midway through the update, I got a user error that said I had to wipe the device and restore to factory settings. After I did that, I restored from a recent back up. When I did that it would not allow me to add recently purchased music to playlists on the device. I could not figure out how to fix this anywhere. Finally, in iTunes I clicked on my iTouch on the list on the right. Then in the big box on the left I clicked on summary. Then I scrolled to the bottom where "Options" was displayed. I clicked on "Manually manage music and videos" and then "apply". Suddenly, I could add music to my established playlists on my device! Hooray! Perhaps this happened to you and that box is unchecked? Good luck.

My recently new computer and iTunes won't let me add music to my iPhone. What do I do?
I recently got a new computer. I downloaded iTunes and went to add new music to my iPhone4, but it wouldn't let me add it. When i tried to press "Manually manage music and videos" it told me that since i already synced my iphone to the old computer, i had to erase everything from my iPhone to be able to. I don't want to erase my phone. I'm pretty sure there is another way since people get a new computer everyday, but I don't know how. Help?
Yes... that's the way it works.
You can only sync an iDevice with one computer.
Move or copy all the iTunes content from the old computer (or backup of the old computer) to the new computer.
Then sync the iDevice with the new computer. It will still wipe the device, but at this point it will not matter because all the content will be on the new computer to sync to the device. -
ITunes won't let me download music off the cloud
My hard drive corrupted earlier this year but thanks to iTunes match I can download all my music back off the cloud onto my laptop. I've been downloading as much as my bandwidth allocates me each month, so when it came to the start of this month, I began downloading the rest of my music from the cloud.
Ever since iTunes has updated, every time it tries to download a track it says it failed and to make sure I'm connected to the server and to try again. I've tried this on a few different networks with the same result.
My iTunes match membership runs out in the next couple of weeks so I'm keen to get this sorted as soon as possible.Hi, katiechristine.

HT1386 New version of iTunes won't let me move music to my iPod.
How do you move music from your iTunes library to your iPod with the new version of iTunes?
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar.
To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Syncing your iPod....>Sync You Device and follow the instructions.
