Not all songs will import.

I've tried drag and drop and importing and all that...but for some reason, some albums just won't appear. I get no error message or anything, they just aren't there. I can click on the songs and they'll play in itunes, but they import. I have one album that imported 2 songs. The other 10 just don't import. What am I missing here? And yes, they are the proper file types.

First look at the CD and see if its protected.
Secondly goto the PC makers site (If the CD Burner came witht he PC when you bought it) and look for updates for your model, like Firmware updates for the CD ROM and BIOs/chipset updates for the system.

Not all songs will import from CDs

When importing CDs certain songs won't import, the computer will say that the file name is too long or invalid, and usually the song has a longer title, but they may be a coincidence. I'm worried that if I get new cds I won't be able to import all the songs, but I just got the new Norah Jones cd and was able to import all of her songs. I am wondering if it depends on how old the cd is, since the on I tried importing today was a Linda Ronstadt cd, not exactly recent. But my Prince Caspian soundtrack won't import all the songs either, so this can't be the case. I would love to solve this problem and appreciate all who will answer this!
P.S. I tried changing the name but once imported the song will not play

I'm having this issue also. I don't have the 5 but I upgraded my 4 to the new iOS6 and updated to the new version of itunes as well, now I cannot copy any music from my computer to my phone, it just stays grayed out and doesn't actually copy.

Not all files will import from NAS Synology Server to PC running LR 5.3

We recently moved our photos to a new Synolgy NAS server. I have a Lenovo all in one and installed the latest version of LightRoom 5.3. When I import my photos, not all of them get imported, only a fraction of them. I can see all the photos on the server via the run command but after I import not all the photos get transferred over. Does anyone else have this issue? What would cause this bottle neck?

Well, well what do you know.. it just came up..
I moved all files from the LR folder except the catalog, rebooted and it came up...
I guess the next thing to do is to get the previews back.
Hope this is a good sign...

Not all videos will import into iphoto...

My PC Windows 7 harddrive crashed. I have a new harddrive. But i lost all my CD's that i had burned onto iTunes. They are all still on my iPhone 4s, but when i sync, only the purchased songs will import. Is there anyway to retrieve them

My PC Windows 7 hard drive crashed. I have a new hard drive. But i lost all my CD's that i had burned onto iTunes. They are all still on my iPhone 4s, but when i sync, only the purchased songs will import. Is there anyway to retrieve them? Thanks!

Restore your library from your most recent backup (you do keep regular backups, I hope). If the hard drive is in any way salvageable it may be possible to mount it in an external enclosure, connect it to your PC, and retrieve data from it even if it is not functioning as a primary OS drive (if you don't have the kit necessary to do this, your local PC repair shop may be able to help). Failing that, you can always recreate your library by re-importing your CDs.

I successfully transferred my itunes to another PC, when I click on most (not all) songs, it tells me to authorize the computer, I authorize it, it says this computer is already authorized, but when i click on a song, it tells me to authorize again. help

Are the songs authorised to the same account?
Often people change their e-mail address over time, and also decide to set up new iTunes account names using that e-mail. You can (and should) continue to use an old e-mail address as your account name. Then you don't run into the issue of having different songs authorised to different accounts.
To check the authorised account for the song, click "Get info" on the song name in iTunes. It will show the account name in the Summary panel.
If you have set up multiple accounts, log into each one, and burn the songs to CD as audio tracks (i.e. like a normal CD, not a data CD). You can then re-import the files into iTunes without the authorisation embedded into the song.

Home sharing iMac and MacBook Pro: not all songs are playable

Hello
I set up Home Sharing between my iMac and MacBook Pro so that I could stream the music that's on the iMac to the MacBook Pro. On the MBP there are no songs, all of them are in Apple Lossless format on my iMac. I first tried to use "‘share my library on my local network" but because I wanted the play count to go up as well I chose for "Home Sharing". Setting up was simple. After all preferences were adjusted, I opened iTunes on the MBP and it immediately found the shared iMac library. There's now only one problem: not all songs are playable. Some don't even start. How is this possible and what do I need to do to resolve this?
FYI: the iMac is connected via ethernet to my cable modem which sends a wireless Wi-Fi signal to the MBP. Signal quality is excellent.
Also, is it possible that playcount is only available with Home Sharing and not with "share my library on my local network"?
Thanks!

It very well could be the antivirus app, most are intrusive and debilitate rather than enhance performance and should be removed using the developers instructions. You haven't really told us anything useful such as any settting you may have changed. However if you began working backwards resetting any changes and uninstalling the apps added since the performance issue started then you probably will find your issue.

Sometimes i copy CD to the i TUNES, but not all songs. I have an iMac

Sometimes i copy CD to the iTunes but often not all songs..why??

iTunes only allows you to transfer songs from an iPod if they were purchased in the iTunes Store.
As they were transferred from a CD, you have to use an application like Senuti > http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/ It will transfer the music from an iPod to iTunes

Ipod is synced but not all music will play. The music shows on the Ipod but not highlighted and cannot click to play.

Provided the music plays in iTunes on the computer
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 music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- 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.

Not all songs downloaded - help!

I recently upgraded from a 2Gb nano to a 8Gb (red) nano. Everything works fine except not all songs have downloaded. I have tried some of the bewildering suggestions but still have the problem. I have the latest version of itunes loaded. Anyone able to help

I have solved the problem myself!
The songs were all downloaded but did not show up. The reason was that if there are a few songs by the same artist and the details of album are only entered for some of the songs the others do not appear under that artists name. If you look under 'Songs' all songs are there. Strange but true!!

Not all songs importing!

On every CD that I have imported songs on to my computer, not all of the songs have imported. Sometimes half of a CD will not get imported. I've even tried importing the songs over and over but, nothing happens. When I import the songs they go into the library. Then iTunes freezes on the last song. I end the program(CtrlAltDelete)and bring up the program again. Some songs that I saw go into the library are not there. Someone please help.

Thanks but either I am not understanding something there or I am missing something.
This seems to be more of a pain in the arse to deal with.
The issue is when artists feature other artists. For example I imported the Jusitn Bieber Mistole CD and 5 songs are under the album but every song that has a feature artist is separated into its own entry. Its unfortunate that you can't just copy and paste or drag and drop it into the correct album.

Ipad will not sync songs from imported CD's

I have updated my ipad 2 with the latest IOS and now, as of yesterday, it will not sync the songs from my computer that were imported from CDs (kind=MPEG audio file). All other itunes (Kind=puchased AAC) songs will sync. I have turned it on and off, restored it, restarted itunes, restarted my computer, etc. Nothing seems to work. These songs do show up in the itunes library on my ipad in light grey with a red circle beside it with a red square in the middle, but they will not play. Nothing happens when I click on this red circle/square. Yes my PC is authorized. I sync new songs almost every day so I know this just started with this newest IOS release.
I have tried Wi Fi syncing. Nothing. I tried manually syncing and dragging the song from my library to the ipad. Nothing.

I have the exact same problem as described: red square in red circle. It appears to be only for songs that I imported from CDs. I have tried restoring, etc. but they still appear. The songs are in iTunes and play in iTunes but they will not play on iPhone. In addition, when I sync, the process never completes - step 5 of 5 continues and does not end (Waiting for Items to Copy). I have latest ios and iTunes versions. I do not back up to the cloud but do have local backup. Would appreciate any suggestions.

Not all songs are getting synced into my iPhone

Why is this? I have no clue. Only ~200 of my ~500 songs are getting uploaded.
Also, what's the best way to store songs in my computer, such that it will not get duplicated on my iTunes and/or iPhone?
Currently, I store the song as "Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven" on my computer.

Are you manually managing music and videos, or syncing?
If syncing, do you have all songs and playlists or selected playlists selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences?
Under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences, do you have Sync only checked songs and videos selected?
If so, are all songs selected or checked in your iTunes music library?
Also, what's the best way to store songs in my computer, such that it will not get duplicated on my iTunes and/or iPhone?
When importing songs from another source besides the iTunes Store or when imported from a music CD, there is an iTunes option to copy files to iTunes Music Folder when adding to library, which is available at iTunes preferences under the Advanced tab below General.

Just upgraded to 2.2.1 and not all songs play

On my iPod Touch, I just finally upgraded the software from 1.x to 2.2.1. Now, only a few songs will play. Others appear to play but there's no sound. Odd thing is, it's like my last 3 or 4 purchases that play (some songs and one album--going back about a month) but older purchases do not play (only have purchased music, no imported CDs on the iPod).
Has anyone else experienced this? I'm not really sure what to do. Am going to synch it to remove all songs then re-synch them back on, but didn't know if there was a better solution.
It seems like I'm reading that 2.2.1 is a little buggy, I'm wondering if I will run into other problems as well.

I would simply restart the touch and, if that didn't do it, a reset.
Restart: Hold the Sleep/Wake button down until you see the red slider and turn the touch off. To restart it, hold the Sleep/Wake button until you see the Apple logo and then let go.
Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down together for about 10 seconds. When you see the Apple logo again, let go.
FYI - 2.2.1 was a minor update to fix a few little things. It is only buggy in some people's hands. Most of us have experienced no problems.

Not all songs will import.
