New version of iTunes uploads CD with horrible quality?

I just bought the Twilight soundtrack. I listened to it in the car on the way home and it sounded great. When I got home, I put it in my computer and iTunes recognized it and what not. It uploaded the songs and everything. When I listened to the songs in the upload window, they sounded great and normal. However, when I went to my library and listened AND on my iPod, the sound quality is horrible and cheap and sounds like some bad internet download.
I don't know why this happened. The rest of my library sounds fine, and the songs are only poor quality on iTunes library and my actual iPod. iTunes didn't even find any cover art!
I'm really frustrated and confused as to why this is happening. Any help?

I use the error correction selection under preferences-general-import settings and do not seem to have any trouble. It does slow down the import process but not by much. Some of the earlier versions of iTunes seem to have trouble with some of the digital rights protection software but with the more recent versions this does not seem to be an issue. There are also a couple of playback options in both the iPod and the computer iTunes playback that include "enhancing" the playback. Personally I like the off setting but many people enjoy the additional surround sound and boosted dynamics. Hope this helps, I usually scan in the cover art so am not much help for that issue.

The new version of itunes has conflited with my cd/dvd drive

It seems that the new version of Itunes has conflicted with my CD/DVD drive because when I uninstalled and re installed the itunes my drive has stopped working and I now have an error code of 19 - Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) I have tried to update drivers but I am up to date, I have installed and re installed my drive this did not solve the problem. I am now at a loss as to what to do I have had a live chat with microsoft and they could not reslove it all they wanted to do was sell me another service!!! Could installing an older version of itunes solve this issue?

See TS2308: iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install.

anyone know why i cant upgrade to newer version of itunes , its coming with an error "ITUNES64.MSI FOLDER containing the installation package is missing ??Ive tried unistalling previous version but same message comes up

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

New version of iTunes not compatible with my iMac but I've upgraded my iPhone to iOS 6. How can I resolve this?

I have an iMac G5 (2005) and I cannot download the new version of iTunes as I do't have an Intel based Mac, therefore, I cannot connect my iPhone 4 to iTunes after upgrading to iOS 6. How can I remove iOS 6 from the iPhone to run iOS 5 again or actually get my Mac to run the new version of iTunes?
Any helpful hints would be good.
Thanks

You're in a bit of a pickle there...Apple does not support downgrading software, so there's no official way to do so, & since you have a Power PC Mac, you can't run Snow Leopard, which is required in order to run iTunes 10.7. So, either purchase a new computer or sync your phone with iCloud from now on.

New version of iTunes not working with itunes library

I installed the new iTunes 8.0 and now when I try to open iTunes, I get an error message--"the file itunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." What does that mean, how can i make iTunes work with my new Nano?

I have I tunes on both the laptop with WindowsXP and on the
newly acquired Desktop, HP Q 8200 with Vista 64.
For the latter I have downloaded the latest recommended
version for Vista64, but even though I can see the imported
and saved ( on an external hard drive) play list I can not
play them. When I click on them on this new Vista 64
empowered Desktop, nothing happens.When I click on
Beethoven folder ( which contains many creations by
composer) I can see nothing in the right panel regarding
the overture, for example.
On the laptop I have exactly the same play list and all
works fine there.
Audio is OK, because when I go to the I-tunes store with
the desktop, I can listen to the songs.
Any solutions????

So, in iTunes, when you look at the shuffle's content (in the sidebar) and click on the playlist under the shuffle, over to the right, the songs are in your desired order, correct? Where do you look, or what do you do, that indicates the playlists are in alphabetical order? Are you saying that when you play the songs while using the shuffle, they play in alphabetical order?
If so, when you listen to the songs on the shuffle, are you using the playlist, or are you using the All Songs list? If you are in the default All Songs list, with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order (the middle position), the songs play alphabetically, I believe.
The 3rd gen shuffle uses VoiceOver. If you are in the All Songs list, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to the playlist (see manual linked below for details). When you are in the playlist (with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order), then the songs should play in playlist order.
There are more details in the manual for the 3rd gen shuffle, which is online here
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
See page 22 for the section about setting up and using VoiceOver. The part about switching playlists starts on page 23 (Using the Playlist Menu).

New version of Itunes is having problems with crossfading songs, it doesn´t work. How do I fix that?

I installed the new version of Itunes (10.5.2.11) and I have a party playlist in wich I need the songs to crossfade for the music to continue playing non-stop. The problem is that even when the crossfade option is activated, it doesn´t crossfade songs. And when it does, the last song played, keeds playing in backgroung from star, so you hear 2 songs at the same time.
Also, I uninstalled the current version an installed an older version, but it won´t let me open the program, becouse "the iTunes Library was created in a newer vewrsion"
HELP PLEASE!!!!
Diego

It seems that this is a MAJOR issue with MANY end users experiencing the exact same problem - iTunes 10.5.2.11 Crossfade is completely buggy. Apple, get it together, seriously...your QA department should all be fired for this.
Diego, there are numerous threads replicating your problem.
So far, there are a few work arounds:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3408812?start=0&tstart=0
One thing to keep in mind, at least what has worked for me: After you make a change to the crossfade timing, you must close out of iTunes and re-open before the new settings take place.
Crossfade timing = 12 seconds actually equates to about 50 seconds.
Click the slider, then use your arrow key to tick over about 20 times - this should crossfade your songs approximately 6 seconds before ending.
Apply, then close out and re-open iTunes...
Peruse through the link above, there are different approaches. Maybe one will work for you.

Hello I have a 4 yo mac desktop..I bought a new iphone s and wanted to use it with my itunes. It required the new version of itunes be downloaded to my mac so I did so but when I try to install it it requires version 10.8 or better?

Hello,
I have a 4 yo mac desktop system unkown i downloaded latest version of itunes for use with my iphone5s but when I try to install I get an error message reads" requires ox 10.6.8 or better be installed?....stystem update check shows no updates available.....help

Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac". Write down what it says about "version"and report that here. Now continue to "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
If you have a PPC Mac you cannot sync your idevice without a newer computer. See the end of this post for options.
If it says you have an Intel Mac you can upgrade to Snow Leopard (if you don't already have it -- OS 10.6), but check system requirements first:
Snow Leopard 10.6 Technical Requirements - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
You can buy Snow Leopard at:
Snow Leopard disc source - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
After installing, or if you already have some lower 10.6 version, run the updater to 10.6.8, then upgrade iTunes.

How do i replace a newer version of itunes with an older version of itunes

Problem with multiple XP accounts since installing new version of iTunes/QT

I am running XP Pro. A year or so ago, I went through the "disaster" recovery of installing the new version of iTunes (5.0) along with its nasty QT upgrade that was not ready for prime time. After much thrashing, I got my computer back to iTunes 4.9.0.xx and an older version of QT.
My son just bought a shuffle this week and so we thought it would now be safe to get the latest version of iTunes/QT on our machine. Boy, were we wrong.
We loaded, logged into my account, iTunes 6.0.4 and QT 7.1.0. iTunes comes up in my account and it recognizes my mini still.
However, iTunes will no longer run in my wife's account (she has a mini and has had it longer than my mini) and will not work in my son's account for his shuffle. It brings up the error dialog about QT not working.
My wife went to her account and just tried starting QT and it gave an error saying it was not installed properly.
I would have expected the installation in one account to work for all accounts given where it is installed.
Any help would be appreciated.

hiya!
even though you're not getting a #6344x in the affected accounts, this is still looking consistent with a registry permissions issue on the PC. (1402s have been known to be associated with the "stops working in all-but-one pre-existing account after an upgrade" issue before.)
the stejskal family pioneered the treatment for us:
the trick for me was getting up the nerve to "fiddle" with the registry...the reason why the girls could not get access to iTunes/QT was down to permission...once I got one going I went back in to HKEY-MACHINE\SOFTWARE\apple computer, inc\Quicktime...click to highlight go to edit, permission and added the missing girls to the list of who is allowed...made sure they have full permission..apply, ok and "bobs your uncle" all is now well in stejskal home.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=810602&#810602
so check to see if those user accounts that are crashing for you have the right permissions on those keys.
keep us posted.

Gray ! on 100 records when I sync with new version of iTunes 10.2.1.1

I have a Ipod classic 30g. I have 4079 songs in my iTunes. I am using Windows 7 on an ACER Extensa. I have my music on an external hard drive. The same place it has always been. Since I upgraded to the new version of iTunes when I sync my Ipod it randomly marks 100 records with the gray circle with a ! in it. Showing that it is not connected. I check the songs are still on the drive in the same location. I go into the control panel of my computer use the repair function and all the ! are gone. As soon as I try to sync iTunes selects 100 songs and does not sync them to my Ipod. After the first time I added more songs and there was no change to the number of songs not synced. Any suggestions?

I only have songs no other media. The specs for my Ipod say it should hold 7500 songs. This problem only started after upgrading to the newest version of iTunes 10.2.1.1
