Problem importing mp3 from desktop

I go into iTunes and "Import" but nothing happens. Ive tried dragging into iTunes as well and nothing. Not sure what else i can do.
any help would be much appreciated.
thanks.

To 'import' an MP3 file, you have to use the 'Add to Library...' command from the File menu.
This article explains the differences between importing and adding:
iTunes: About the Add to Library, Import, and Convert functions
Alternatively, you can drop an MP3 on the iTunes icon in the Dock or drop it on the Library icon in the Source pane of iTunes or drop it on the Library in iTunes (the Library must be selected)
Hope this helps.

  • Problem Importing photos from camera to iPhoto

    Help. For a while I had no problems importing photos from my camera now I get the following error message:- /private/var/folders/CC/CC5eraW2GGCddoAX3DUGjE+TM/-Tmp-/iPhoto/PICT1015.JPG
    Does anyone know what this means? What I have done to my computer to cause this? and how to fix it. Thank you.

    Sam
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Launch Image Capture (in your Apps Folder) and use it to move the pics to the desktop. Then try import from there.
    If that works, then use your camera to reformat your card, and see if that works in the future.

    Save the file from Gmail onto your computer and add it to iTunes.  How you save from Gmail is a Gmail question (their own support pages), not an iTunes question.

  • Problems importing connections from a SAN directory

    Is anybody having a problem importing connections from a directory that's on a SAN?
    My network is setup so that the Application Data directory is out on a SAN and when SQL Developer opens up the file dialog, current directory is listed as C:\ and entry in the file name field is file://<server>/<path to my stuff>/Application Data/SQL Developer/. This looks fine but when I click on the "Open" button to get the directory listing, an error dialog pops up with the following message:
    The directory C:\file:\<server>\<path to my stuff>\Application Data\SQL Developer is not accessible. Please select a different directory.
    When I change the current directory to the drive that maps the SAN location, I get the same message only with C: replaced with another drive letter.
    If I had to guess, the dialog is not processing the file:// protocol indicator properly before it attempts to get the directory listing. Does anyone have a work around?

    Other users also had problems with network shares, so you're right that might very well be the cause of your problems.
    As workaround, try mapping the settings folder to a local drive. Add this to \sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf:
    AddVMOption -Dide.user.dir=C:\sqldeveloperHope that helps,

  • Problem Importing Music from

    Hello, I just setup my network attached storage and I'm having problems importing music from it. I get a runtime error with CTImport.exe "abnormal program termination", nice and informati've (see below). I'm running MediaSource 3.30.2, the most recent version. I can add songs little by little, but anytime I try and import a bunch, I get the error. It's not the length of the pathname either, because I added the longest one individually, and it was fine.
    I tried importing from a mapped dri've letter and from the network path directly, both have same problem. I also get the same error from the file sniffer built into MediaSource.
    I'm actually running an external USB hard dri've that is attached to Linksys's Storage Link NLSU2 (or something). Don't know if that is the problem. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, I originally had all my songs on my local dri've. Anyway, it turned out to be a "corrupt" file. This file was fine in every other media player I had, but MediaSource couldn't do anything with it, not even play it (it was an unprotected .wma). I don't know if that song was originally imported while on the local dri've, but I deleted it and MediaSource imported everything fine.
    It was a pain hunting that one song down.
    Thanks.

  • Problems importing mp3's

    I'm hoping to import mp3 from my itunes library into Logic.
    But whenever I push import and go to Application it's not activating the itunes icon.
    For the purpose of practicing I want to import music and alter the tempo but not the pitch.
    Thanks for your help

    you can't import the itunes application itself, you have to browse to the actual MP3 file (or whatever it's format is).
    open your itunes application, ctrl-click on the file and select 'reveal in finder' you can then see exactly where the file is located.
    Hope this helps.

  • Problems importing .mp3 files to itunes

    I'm having problems importing .mp3 files to itunes, it's importing the song name tage with "artist - song title" when it should just be the song title?

    Chad, 
    Glad to hear that Steve's script was helpful.
    As to the bug, I don't know.  The problem you report is not common.  Usually when iTunes displays artist-title in the Name field, it is either an untagged MP3 or a WAV file, but in those cases it does not correct itself when you give it a kick.  Between that and the non-refresh problem you report, I think there is something else going on besides a tagging issue.  At your convenience, you may want to reinstall the newest iTunes, and see if it helps.
    Anyway, enjoy the music!

    got to be an easy way of sorting this?? p.s has only happened since upgrading to windows 7? problems with itunes or problems with microsoft raping my computer??

    You need to set the iPod to sync manually. Keep another copy of the music.

  • Problem importing images from CCO to WLSE 2.13.1

    Hello,
    I recently upgraded my WLSE Express from 2.13 to 2.13.1.
    Now I have a problem with importing firmware images from cisco.com. Every time I get the following error:
    Image download started for device type: BR1310 version: 12.3.11-JA1
    Device type: BR1310, version: 12.3.11-JA1. Image import failed. Imported file is not a valid image.
    Is there any workaround other then import it manually?
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Most likely due to CSCee37875. Workaround is to use Import from Desktop instead, after downloading the image from CCO outside of WLSE.

  • Problem importing photos from camera to Lightroom

    I have Creative Cloud for Photographers, it´s installed on my iMac and my MacBook Air. I use Lightroom to import photos from the camera. A few days ago I wanted to import some photos to the MacBook, but after a while everything stopped, no photos were imported and after waiting quite some time I gave up. Tried again after a while but then got the message that the files couldn´t be read. It worried me a lot as I was afraid the memory card might have got damaged, but I tried to import the photos to the iMac instead and it was no problem. After that I have tried to import other photos from various cameras to the MacBook, but nothing works. To the iMac - no problem. I then tried to uninstall Lightroom, but it was not possible. In the Creative Cloud-app It is possible to uninstall Photoshop, no problem, but with Lightroom it says "cannot be uninstalled" - on both the iMac and the MacBook.
    Since I will be traveling a lot in just a few days, it´s essential to have a Lightroom that works on my MacBook. I usually import photos from the camera several times a day, so without a LR that works, things will be much more difficult… 
    Any help will be much appreciated!

    As I am not a Mac person, I cannot explain how to change permissions, but I'm sure your favorite search engine will find the instructions.
    Sometimes, the destination folder where Lightroom writes the photos to has accidentally changed, and now you are pointing to a different fodler that doesn't have the proper permissions.

  • Problem importing photos from Extreme Pro SD Card

    Sorry if this has been covered. I atempted to import photos from my new CF card via a Griffin card reader into my iMAC. Never had a problem before, but iPhoto won't respond and won't recognize the card. Was able to import to my wife's MacBook Pro with no problem. Any thoughts? Thanks

    My appologies for wasting your time. The card reader has given up the ghost!

  • Problem importing songs from CD

    Every time I import a CD into my iTunes, about 4 seconds into the first track the audio cuts out for a second or two. I've tried re-importing the CDs track-for-track and it still happens.
    The problem does not occur when I import other audio files, only when I import directly from a CD.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Have you checked "Use error correction when reading Audio CDs"

  • Problem importing photos from iPhoto

    I want to import photos from iPhoto. I only want to import photos from two or three albums in iPhoto on my iMac. When I plug in the iPad Air, I choose sync from selected albums. I choose the albums I want to import from and click on "sync" or "apply". When the sync process gets to step 5, "importing photos", it stays on that step never able to proceed to step 6. Is this an iCloud problem? Thanks for your help.

    I found out what the problem was. "iCloud Photo Sharing" was turned off on my iPad. Now everything is working great. I would have just deleted the inquiry, but I could not find out how to do that.
