My itunes no longer imports cds corectly with tracks showing no music and zero timings??

When adding CDs to my library limited or no tracks are shown. They appear as time not available? Tried to change import settings but this does not help?

I have a nearly identical problem. I can import part of the first track, and for some reason, part of the 6th track and then skips over the rest. It shows the play times as a huge number (somewhere around 667 hours) but imports nothing. I cannot play the CD with iTunes either.
I bought vista home premium and was disappointed to discover it does not come with a x64 bit disk. I used vista 32 bit software and had absolutely no problems with iTunes. After a fresh install of vista for 64 bit iTunes no longer works properly. I can still play anything I transferred from my backup HD but no importing is possible.
I have tried the error correction with no success. I tried installing and running 32 bit iTunes and it gives me an error saying something to the effect of "iTunes is improperly installed. You may need to reinstall iTunes to fix this problem."
I have a hard time believing that this is due to a x64 bit problem as Apple has used this technology longer than most. Is this an issue with the latest iTunes? I am going to fuss with it some more but I'm very frustrated that I can bearly use the new iPod I bought. Any suggestions from Apple users as well as Dark Side (*vista or windows in general :)*) users would be awesome.

  • No longer imports CDs

    My iTunes will no longer import CDs. It reads them then very quickly copies them into the library but they are marked "not available" in the time column and will not play. Only the titles are there.

  • Itunes no longer plays the first CD track etc. while importing?

    Now when I start importing from a CD Itunes no longer starts playing the first track after it has downloaded and the second track begins downloading. I can't see a switch or button that has shut that feature off but Itunes used to play it without being prompted but no longer does. What am I missing?

    hs,
    Just in case you haven't found the answer to your question in other postings, what works is to open the Terminal (found in Apps>Utilities) and type in : -
    defaults write com.apple.iTunes play-songs-while-importing -bool TRUE
    Hit return and then close the Terminal. The next time you open iTunes it should play again as you import cds.
    I guess it's all part of the "Macs are easier to use" policy of Apple :o)

  • How to stop Windows iTunes from spontaneously creating new folders with duplicate copies of songs, and renaming existing folders?

    I've recently started using iTunes regularly to import CDs. Since then, I've found my Windows 'My Music' folder is behaving in bizarre ways.
    I like to organise most of my music in folders by Genre --> Album title, without paying attention to Artist. I also like to rename certain album folders (and the Album name in each track's metadata as well, so that each album/folder remains consistent), and also to create customised 'mix tape' album folders. I just want to use Windows Explorer / My Computer to manage this; I don't want to do it via iTunes. I just want to use iTunes for initially getting the music from CD to computer.
    Previously, when I was using Windows Media Player to import CDs, if Windows Media Player placed an imported CD under a folder category I don't use, such as Artist, I would just manually move the Album folder and delete the empty parent Artist folder. However these days iTunes is spontaneously creating an entire series of Artist folders, even for tracks and albums that were already on my computer, and is placing duplicate track files into them. Additionally, it's renaming albums for folders and tracks I've customised, turning album titles back into their original values. This is happening even though the destination for newly imported/downloaded iTunes tracks is not the My Music folder itself, but rather another folder within that one. I've had a look at Preferences --> Advanced and the 'Keep iTunes media folder organised' and 'Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library' boxes are already unchecked, so it's not related to that anyway. How do I get iTunes to leave my folders alone?

    First off see this user tip so should any further unwanted changes happen you have a chance to revert to your original layout.
    It is not unknown for AV software to interfere with iTunes and corrupt its configuration files. If this happens iTunes can revert to the default settings to "Keep..." & "Copy...". Deselecting those options won't return any files to their original paths.
    If you have "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases" enabled under Edit > Preferences > Store that can lead iTunes to download the original metadata for any of your purchases and show that instead of any edits you may have made to it. Turing that option off and restarting iTunes may reveal your version of the metadata.
    There is another option under Edit > Preferences > Store that reads "Share details about your library with Apple" although I don't think that changes metadata in the way that the similar option in Windows Media Player does. Double-check your settings in Windows Media Player (Options > Library) to make sure it isn't set to "Retrieve additional information from the Internet". This is usually the cause of spontaneous tag resetting. WMP can be called into life in the background when visiting certain websites and it has a lazy cache, meaning it can sometimes write out metadata to your media files long after the data was originally acquired.
    It is also work noting that mp3 files may contain multiple tags and iTunes, for one, treats these unpredictably. In some cases it may appear to accept and write out a tag change only to later read back the original unchanged data from another copy of the tag.

  • TS1362 I am having trouble playing imported cds.  The tracks keep sticking which is a bit like buffering is this a common problem and can i rectify it.

    Being new to the iphone I am having trouble listening to imported cds.  The tracks keep sticking a bit like buffering.  Is this a common problem and can it be solved just by addressing a general buffering problem which I already have on youtube but have not rectified as yet.
    Thanks Kaz T

    If <alanfromnewtownards> fix fails to address the issue - turn off iMessage and Facetime in Settings.  Settings\iMessage, and Settings\facetime.
    Sync by cable to iTunes.
    Leave cable connected, open Settings\iCloud and ensure at least Mail is on and dsplays your Apple iD email -  then turn iMessage and Facetime back on.  Ensure that in the ISettings...\iMessage...\Facetime page that the Receive at field and Receive video calls at email address is the same address as your Apple I.D.
    Resync when finished.
    If still having problems with Facetime then check that the required port is open - allowing traffic in your router.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1629
    In some cases you may need to turn on Port forwarding and open the port manually to allow traffic through.  See your router documentation for details.
    If having problems verifying, open iTunes store App on your pad.  at bottom of page, click on your ID and sign in. Go to your Account details (re-veryfying and answering security questions may be required to do this) - check all details are correct.
    Finally right click your device icon in iTunes and select Reset warnings.  resync when finished.

    Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one.  Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

    You need to copy the iTunes liubrary from your Old computer, or its Backup, to your New computer...
    See Here for one way
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    Or...

  • Can I purchase and turn on iTunes match from my iPhone 5 with out a computer? And if so how?

    Can I purchase and turn on iTunes Match from my iPhone 5 with out a computer? And if so how?

    You can't do it from your phone. If they are iTunes purchased songs then you should be able to copy them to your laptop via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. For music from other sources, anf i you haven't got them on your backup of your library, then you will need a third-party program on your computer to copy them back - there are some listed half-way down this page which might work : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • ITunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.

    iTunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.  I reconnect to iTunes and it shows the music and books as being loaded on my iPod.
    Sometimes the audiobook will play, then disappear from iPod's play menu after I reconnect to iTunes and load more music.  I've got plenty of free memory, and iTunes shows the files still on iPod.
    ....or should I just roll it back to iOS 5...  never had these kinds of issues with the old OS.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all AB and resync
    To delete all ADgo to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>AB and try deleting them from there
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • How do you delete songs from iphone5, that are not in your iTunes library on the computer?! I have the spot unchecked where it says show all music and I still have songs on my iPhone that I want gone, but they're not in my iTunes library...HELP

    I have a iPhone 5 with the most up to date software and I have songs appearing on my phone that I've deleted prior too from iTunes on the computer. How do I remove them from my phone, I've tried the left to right swipe and that just plays the songs! :/ Can anyone help me, I'd be forever grateful if I didn't have to go back to the store! I went I today abc he unchecked the show all music and there's still songs I don't want on my iPhone! :(

    The answer to the question in the title of the thread is yes, but it is not necessarily a good idea. At some point you are likely to find you need to restore your iPod for one reason or another, or it could be lost, stolen or damaged. If your songs aren't on your computer, and backed up too, then you will be less than happy.

  • Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring

    Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring  I have an iphone5 64 syncing about 8000 songs, so updating all is a time consuming, and now maddening process. Never had a problem before iOS 8. Someone (hello Apple) needs to develop a utility to help manage artwork recovery.

  • Can no longer import CDs -Itunes freezes

    I was going along just fine importing CDs and then one day after importing two CDs, it stopped working. Each time I try to import a CD, I see the list of songs, start the import process and everything locks up within a few seconds. I have to manually shut down - Ctrl-Alt-Del does not work. I can't use the CD diagnostics because that freezes up too. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Laurie

    Hi
    I'm having the exact same problem too. I had posted here a while ago but no one had any solutions. The only thing that I can suggest is to upload the tracks one by one. Sometimes I can get away by uploading say 4 tracks in one go other times I can only upload 1 o 2 at a time. I know its not really a solution but thats what I ended up doing.
    The problems began after I downloaded the latest iTunes version. although it could be windows xp too - I had Win XP with SP1 and not SP2. But then, I upgraded to SP2 and the problem didn't go away.
