New Problem! Importing a song

I had a certain song on my iPod, then it decided not to play. So, I deleted the song from the library, and went to re-add that file.
Now that file will NOT import into the iTunes libary no matter what. Any suggestions? The file PLAYS fine on my computer with another application, but will not import into iTunes.

It may be corrupt. I'm not toosure what to tell you really. Sorry. Good Luck, Hopefully someone will be of better assistance to you.

New problem importing photos videos

since I upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7, I having a problem importing photos and videos to my pc? I have Windows 7. Has anyone else had this issue and been able to resolve it?

Hi I have figured it out on my own just today coz what apple suggested didn't help much so I just have to do it by myself.
This is what you need to do:
open your computer and search for autoplay, it will open rightaway and then scroll down look for your device then change "ask everything" to "import photos and videos in windows" connect your ipad again then tthe import box will open.. and your good!
i hope this will help you. Good luck! :-)

Problem importing Garageband songs into Logic Express

Hi I have spent around 4 hours looking for an answer to this problem so hopefully it has'nt been answered before apolgies if it has.
I am trying to import a Garageband Song into Logic Express (7.1) it appears to import it to Logic but when finished it reads file corrupt not a Logic File.
I followed the tutorial opened the GB song and followed the instructions on how to import but I cant import it to Logic without the above message coming up.
Any ideas?
I'm using a MacBook Pro with 10.4.9 on it.Logic is version 7.1 (Is there a known bug when importing?)
Thank you if you can help.
KB.

Hi KB,
Welcome to the forum!
the answer is within your question;
your machine needs the universal Logic express (7.2)
and your GB's probably GB 3.
That's the reason you can open the files.
If you bought version 7 "new"(from the reseler)
ask for version 7.2, as you can't buy crossgrade anymore.
(until logic sells a new one)
"You just bought diesel and your machine's not run on it"
rule number 1: You should Allways look for system requirements and software versions compability!

New problems importing Pro-res files

Hi,
I am running CC14 on PC (HPz800 Windows 8) - and I have recently become unable to import Pro-res files into After Effects or Media Encoder. These files DO open in premiere
I have tried the following:
Restarted
Cleared my cache
Cleared all my appdata settings
uninstalled and reinstalled latest Quicktime
reverted back to a previous version of After effects (this is where i noticed the problem first and I had recently got a new update)
copying the file to a different location on my drive and importing it from there
Additionally:
I have had no problems with Pro-res in the past
The same file works fine on other computers in my office with the same versions of Ae/Encoder
The video file works in premiere
The video file plays fine in Quicktime
I get the following errors:
In Ae - "this '.mov' is damaged or unsupported"
In media encoder - "could not be imported. could not read from source. please check settings and try again"
In the meantime I have re-encoded a proxy using premiere - however this is not an adequate long-term solution
Not sure what to try next, don't really want to re-image my whole computer (i already did this on a month or so ago)
Any help is appreciated

Problems importing certain songs

there are a bunch of songs on my computer (all by the same artist surprisingly) that won't add to my itunes library, they are definitely mp3 files and are tagged correctly etc etc
When i double click them, they will open up itunes (as it is my default music player) and do nothing else, i.e play or add to my library, i cannot import them or anything
however i am not having this problem adding them to other media players like wmp and real player, they add and play fine, so they are definitely working mp3 files
i was wondering what the problem is and if there is anyway i could fix it so i can actually add them and listen to them, and also add to my ipod
thanks a lot !

Bryan4a,
StarDeb's advice is probably the best solution for you.
But as to the reason why iTunes is sending checked and unchecked songs to your iPod, you'll most likely find if you go to the iTunes Edit menu > Preferences > iPod tab > Music sub-tab that Only update checked songs has not been checked.

Problems importing my songs to Phase (game)

I bought the iPod scroll wheel game Phase today. The game uses your own songs in the game, allowing you to rhythmically use your scroll wheel to follow the song (similar to Guitar Hero or Dance Dance Revolution). You are supposed to put your songs on a playlist it makes for you on iTunes, and then once you sync your iPod to iTunes, the game can use your songs in the game. I did all of this, but when I play the game, it tells me that I haven't added any songs to the playlist. Can anyone please tell me what's happening? By the way, I use an iPod Nano 4g 16gb.

Welcome to AD!
I have that Phase game. It's pretty fun.
Do you have a playlist named *Phase Music*? It should be a blue one with a music note, not a purple one with a gear symbol.
I installed this game quite a while ago, so I have forgotten the exact seuqeunce of things. But at some point, it created that playlist or prompted me to create it, and I had to drag music over into it.

Problems importing and playing songs from an external cd/dvd drive

I am having problems importing songs on my PC from an external usb drive. What I have is an external combo usb firewire drive hooked up to my pc with a usb cable. (usb 2.0) When I launch itunes, it sees the cd I have loaded but when I go to import the songs, itunes just pops past each song in a second like each song was just a second in length. Then I have some corrupt file in my itunes library. Itunes gets the cd names and titles from CDDB correctly but can't play the songs or import them. I use this pc solely for playing audio, it is a Pentium 4 2.6 with 1GB of ram with build in usb 2.0 on the motherboard. There is no other software installed on the system other then virus software. When I use Windows Media Player the cd is read perfectly fine. I even play DVDs off the drive with no problems too. This problem in intermittent, with different cds. These are all commercial cds not burnt ones that someone made for me. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Toonz - I have exactly the same problem when trying to import songs - itunes does recognise the cd drive and names of tracks etc - it just won't play more than one second of each, or import any more. i did run the cd diagnostic check you suggested - results below - don't mean anything to me i'm afraid - any bright ideas?
this was a christmas present and i haven't managed to put any new music on apart from what was already on our pc, so am v sad and hope you can make it better....

Problem with creating tracks on in imported GB songs

Hi folks,
I just imported a song I was working on in GB2, and I had lots of fun playing with the tools, cutting, pasting etc... But when it came down to creating a new audio track, it kept assigning it to the same track as the trakc immediately above it in the arrange window. If I try to change it, it changes both. If I create another track, it assigns all three to the same track. If I arm the track to record, it arms all 3. It only seems to do that on imported GB songs. New songs don't have that problem.
Someone please help, before I pull out the rest of my hair!
Thanks,
Kevin

In the Arrange window, use "Create Multiple…" from the track menu.
OR
Open your Track mixer, click Global, and double click on one or more unused audio tracks - they will then appear in your arrangement window.

Problems with itunes songs to import to CD

I am having problems with my iTunes songs. I want to import my songs that I brought (downloaded) to a cd, but I'm having a problem doing that. It started downloading maybe 1-3 songs then a message pops up saying "Downloading Error--Access denied" and my cd pops out. This has been happening once and a while. Last time I had no problems when I saved my songs to back up. Now that I have a lot of new songs, I want to save them incase something happens. I can't figure out why this is happening. Does anyone know what is going on with my iTunes songs?

If I understand you correctly that you're trying to burn a CD from iTunes, you might want to repost in the Importing and Burning in iTunes forum. Your issue may be more likely to be seen by someone with insight into this issue there.
When you repost, be sure to include details such as your version of iTunes, how you're burning the disk (using the iTunes backup feature or via some other method), what brand and type of CD you're using and whether that brand and type has worked for you in the past, etc. You also probably want to make it clear that you're burning to CD; "import" to most people will mean that you're trying to get tracks into iTunes from a CD.
Regards.

I can import some songs from another computer but not others. All the songs were purchased with the same apple id. Message says "...check connection to network..." Any ideas as to what could be causing this problem?

Using home share, I can import some songs from my son's computer but not others. All the songs were purchased with the same apple id. Err msg:"There was a problem downloading ... You do not have enouggh access privileges for this operation. Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." The network appears to be fine . I can import other songs from his library. The same songs cause me a problem each time I try. My husband had no trouble importing the same songs I have trouble with. I get the same error message if I try to import the same songs from my husbands computer as well. "Command I" appears to show the same protections on both the songs I can import & the ones I cannot. My husband and son are both running OS 10.6, while I am running 10.7. I think I had this problem even before I upgraded, but I am not certain.

Welcome to Apple Discussions..
My first suggestion is to Repair Disk. Here's how:
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
Please post back and let me know how that goes.
Here are a few links that may help you to identify the issues:

Problems importing songs

Hello;
I am having problems importing songs into Itunes. I have itunes version 11.0.1.12, but this the first time I have this problem, At first it woould only import certain songs (not all of them), later on I cannot import any songs into itunes, I am trying to add mp3's, and there should not be an issue, however I tried to burnd a CD, and it does not import then that way neither.
waiting your response
JC

I'm having the same problem, except I think I've isolated it a bit more . . .
My MP3s are stored on a Windows server and my mac mini loads the songs across my network. I noticed there was an album missing from my library. I found the MP3s (a Van Halen CD that I ripped), went to reimport them . . . and nothing. I ended up doing a complete wipe (preferences, library files, everything) of iTunes, reinstalled iTunes 7.7, and copied the MP3s over to my local mini hard drive. They still refused to import.
I took the MP3s and checked out the ID3 tags in Tag&Rename on my Windows server. Everything appeared to be fine. However, I used Tag&Rename to completely delete ALL ID3 (v1 and v2) information in the MP3s. Once I did that, they imported into iTunes just fine.
Now, here's the kicker: Using iTunes, I setup the information again, and then rewrote the ID3 tags using iTunes (v2.3). After a few listen-tos and restarts (and syncing to my iPod) the songs are now refusing to import again.
I've had these MP3s in my iTunes library for years now. I've never had a problem playing them at all. As far as the MP3s being corrupted, I can play the MP3s just fine using QuickTime or using Finder's Preview view. It's only iTunes that refuses to acknowledge them.
Any thoughts? Anything else I can try?

Are you saying that the tick-box shown in my screenshot, isn't there? (Yes, this is iTunes 11 - I've turned on the sidebar and the Menu bar. So you can see, this is a CD in my drive that we're looking at.)
If it isn't, go to Edit/Preferences/General and turn on the tick-box box

I can't import the songs on my ipod shuffle to my new computer

Hi all, I was wondering if you can help. I had my itunes installed on a freinds computer. I now have my own computer and have connected my ipod and installed itunes. I have been able to import the songs I purchased from itunes onto the new computer, but cannot seem to import the songs from the shuffle to the itunes library. I cannot get access to the old computer to make a copy. Can you please advise a way to import the songs from the shuffle to this itunes on my new computer. Many thanks

Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in iTunes enable it for disk use, this is required for most if not all the utilities listed below so they can access the files: Using your iPod as a storage drive
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. This is just a selection, have a look at the web pages and documentation, they are generally quite straightforward, just check for one that soecifically state they work with the iPod shufle. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

There is also manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved and was written long before iTunes 7 and Windows Vista so it requires a little adaptation as the iPod preferences are no longer in the location mention for instance but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes

HT2905 Many (most) of my songs in my library have multiplied. I now have doubles and triples of my music. I don't know why it has done this or how to fix this problem. This is a new problem since I synced a new ipod touch this week.

Many(most) of my songs in my library have multiplied. I now have doubles and triples of my music. This is a new problem that started this week when I synced my new ipod touch. Why did this happen and how do I get rid of it. I have around 1400 duplicates in my library now.

I suspect in this case the problem is caused by your library and device having downloaded independent copies of the media, so that when the library connects to the device it copies over your purchases not realizing they are already in the library.
When deduping use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)
