Media player to itunes question

I have several tracks in MP3 format on my windows media player how do I put them in Itunes Ipod format

Both iTunes and the iPod will play MP3 format files there's no need to convert them to anything else. To add them to iTunes go to File>Add file to library and locate the files you want to add or locate them in Windows Explorer and drag them to the iTunes source list (the long pane on the left)

  • Transfering music from media player to itunes

    I am having trouble transfering music playlists from my media player to itunes. I have tried the 'add a folder' and 'add a file' options and when I click it nothing happens. I have also tried moving the playlists to different files and tryig to add the folder and files and have also been unsuccessful. I have also tried to 'open playlist in itunes' but still does not transfer. It rips CDs ok but can't find a way to transfer music.

    Have you tried creating a fresh media library in iTunes or re-installing iTunes? MP3's should not be a problem at all as you might suspect using a "MP3 player"

  • Problem with import files from windows media player into iTunes

    When I have tried to import my .wav lossless files created under windows media player into iTunes I use File, add folder to library but when the action is completed I get all of the files under the heading 'unknown album' with 'unknown artist'.
    Does anyone know that I need to do in order to include the artist and album ?
    Many thanks,
    John.

    You'll first need to add the MP3s to your iTunes library since the iPod is not compatible with Windows Media Player. You can use, for example, the File > Add to Library menu to do this.

  • Moving music files from windows media player to itunes

    when I first got my ipod, only half of my music files moved from windows media player into itunes. Is there anyway I can import the rest of the music from windows media player into Itunes? I have tried using the import function and add file or folder to library and they do not seem to work!

    iTunes will not accept Window Media player tracks that are protected. If you imported them off your own CDs, did you check the option to apply protection to them? If so, your only choice is to re-rip those CDs.

  • How do I download music from Windows Media Player to itunes 7.5?

    How do I download music from Windows Media Player to itunes 7.5? I finally figured out how to download itunes to my computer but know I want to get music from Windows Media Player onto iTunes. What do I do? PLease Help!
    -Connie

    Within iTunes use the add folder to library option available on file menu. Select the folder to add. iTunes will add the file to iTunes library. Depending on settings, iTunes may copy the file to iTUnes folder location.

  • I can't import music from widows media player to itunes!

    I'm going crazy, I have tried every way of importing my music from my media player to itunes but to no avail. I have way to much music in my computer it would take forever to upload them all again into itunes. It has to be a lot easier than I am making it, someone please help me!

    Ok, so I looked into my windows media player, it is version 9, but when I looked in my tools setting under "Copy" the box where it says to protect your music is not checked. I then went into the "Media Library" tab and set the access rights of other applications to full. I tried again to transfer and it didn't work. The options I am getting when I go to import music are .txt, .xml, or .m3u none of which work. So, I'm stuck again. Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it!

  • Windows Media Player to iTunes conversion

    I have over 2500 songs that I had for my Windows Media Player. When I bought an iPod, I started converting all my songs to iTunes. But, now I have 2500 songs in Window Media files and 2500 songs in iTunes. This is killing my memory for my computer. If I delete a song for the Windows Media Player, it will not play in iTunes as it states "The song______ could not be used because the original file could not be found."
    My question is, how do I keep all my songs in iTunes ONLY, so I can delete all the Window Media songs?

    I'm sorry. Yes I have 2500 songs. Most of them are in WMA.format. 1/4 of them are in MP3.format. I've had all these songs prior to iTunes.
    Now if I want all my songs transferred to my iPod, I had to copy and hit paste in my iTunes library. iTunes converts some of my songs so I can play them in my iPod.
    So, I have all my songs still in WMA.format in a folder I created and I have all the same songs in my iTunes library. It's taking up a large amount of memory.
    So, since I have those songs in my iTunes library, I've tried to delete the songs that were in the WMA.format. But, once I delete those songs, I cannot play that same song on iTunes. It states "The song______ could not be used because the original file could not be found."
    So, do I have to keep the songs in WMA.format and my iTunes library or is there a way to delete the songs from the WMA.format and still have them play on my iTunes/iPod?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  • BB Link not linking to Win Media Player or iTunes

    Out of the blue, my BB Link will not show my music library in iTunes or Windows Media Player.
    I'm using version 1.0.0.76 and have even reinstalled BB Link.
    I tried with WMP and iTunes closed and open.
    It worked a few days ago now I'm having no luck - very unusual.
    I'm trying to sync my Z10 and Playbook.
    HELP!!! I'm tired of having problems with BB!!!

    Hey cdawaters,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Do you get any specific errors when you try to synchronize the media?  Also are you using a PC or Mac?
    Also have you tried uninstalling BlackBerry Link and re-installing it?
    I look forward to your reply.
    Cheers.

  • Converted songs from Windows Media Player to itunes show up in the library but will not play

    I just installed itunes for the purpose of converting my Windows Media Player library to itunes.  I went through the install and added the music folder.  itunes went through the conversion process overnight and all of my songs appear in the music library.  However some songs will play properly and if you open them in windows explorer they are in a folder called my music/downloads and are mpeg files.  Other songs that are listed in the music library and appear to have been converted will not play.  When you click on these songs that won't play it appears to be playing in the progress bar on top, but no sound comes out and the EQ visualizer shows nothing.  When you open these songs in Windows explorer they are located in a folder: my music\i tunes\itunes media\music and they are a .AAC audio file type. What went wromg in this conversion process? Why is itunes putting these files in two different locations?  Why will these files not fully convert and play?

    This is also what I suspected but why would the songs go through conversion, show up in the library, and then not play?  Apple support even says "itunes for Windows cannot import or play WMA files that are protectd."  Yet the imported song is sitting in the library and when you play it the song is listed and the diamond advances - but no sound.
    Also, any tips on how to see if a WMA file is protected by DRM?
    Thank you for your response.

  • Moving music from Windows Media Player to iTunes

    Hi
    Apologies if this is repeating what others have asked many times in the past - I know what these forums can get like sometimes! I have had a look around though and couldn't find a definitive answer, so...
    I have to date put all my music in Windows Media player on my PC. I am now going to buy an ipod so, obviously, I need my music in iTunes.
    Is it simply a case of copying the folders from 'My Music' into the iTunes version of 'My Music'? If so, where is the iTunes version of 'My Music'..?!
    Thanks
    Percy

    FIrst before I say anything else, As of now its only...6:30am here on the east coast USA (Which means its 3AM in California) so the event has not taken place yet. Apple is very secritive about what there doing, and anything you hear is rumor til apple comes out, says what there doing/announcing and makes it fact.
    Now that said, there has been RUMORS (So far) apple MIGHT release some type of new nano and/or video ipod along with an announcement they have made deals with hollywood to start selling movies on there US store.
    I just wanted to give you a heads up just incase you was buying today and the rumors turned out to be true. I would of utterly hated for you me or anyone to buy an ipod today, and then later in the afternoon, or tommorrow apple release a new ipod. If that happend to me... I would be Cursing up a storm (Southern slang meaning I would be REALLY UPSET LOL)
    Theres alot of news about the event along with rumors that have be heard, just not confirmed by apple yet. One of them is here

  • Transfering MP3 library from Media Player to itunes music came but not art

    I transfered about 30mb of mp3 encoded music from my Media Player library to iTunes. The software said it was reading the artwork but nothing appears in iTunes. Is there something else to do beyond letting iTunes read the library?

    Hi there,
    I believe that unless iTunes has imported the music itself then it will not be able to get the album art automatically.
    If you have all the artwork in the folders then you may have to go through each song and add the album art to it.
    Remember you can highlight more than one song and use Get Info to add album art if they are all from the same album.
    Hope this was helpfull!

  • Putting music from Media Player into iTunes???

    So....I just recently bought my Nano. I have lots of songs on my computer (that I put on there from my CDs) in Windows Media Player 10. When I connected to iTunes (to put music on my iPod) some of my previous songs from Media Player were put into iTunes, yet there are still LOTS of songs not in the iTunes Library. And I don't think that they didn't transfer because they are "protected", it has to be something else. I've tried dragging, copying, nothing is 'allowed'. I've gone to about every window, menu, and help/support site in both iTunes and Windows Media Player. This is almost a last resort.
    Thank you SO much if you have ANY information at all!!!

    I'm having the same problem, can someone help us?????
