Proper iTunes Preference setup for CD's ?

Looking at iTunes Preferences,
I'm wondering if any of the settings there could be interfering with why the music CD disc is getting kicked out.
I was hoping there was a default value to pick. Guessing out of the blue, is left.
Does the tab Importing have anything to do with playing a CD?
Is there a best choice setting for all settings?
I tried windows machine, 8 years old with windows media 10, and disc played fine.
So Apple sees something HP overlooks.
But I have no idea how to get there to see what it is.

i have this same problem it burns the Cd then when it is finishing it up it comes up error device is not responding properly. any helpers?

    (Being sarcastic - its because only the US is big or important enough to warrant volume licensing....)
    At this time, until Apple decides to release volume licensing structures outside of the US the only solution would be to use your purchase orders with a company that sells the iTunes Vouchers and redeem those.
    However - even then its hard to stay on the right side of the EULA when the terms are all couched in reference to "Personal Use"
    I have spoken to some developers in the past about educational discounts, or even support for proxies, and wasn't really impressed with their answers.   But hey - even Adobe has trouble with proxies and consistent approaches - we can't expect independent developers to be able to match the same capabilities...

  • HT4557 whats the best itunes/appleID setup for family of 3 with 3 ipads, 3 iphones, one PC with all music on.  if we use 3 separate ones how do we share purchased and home content?

    been with apple for years.  one itunes/appleID in use for family - all purchases and downloads on the one account..
    now got 3 ipads, 3 iphones and when we update the software, we seem to get text/facetime issues due to multiple email addresses and phone numbers for the different devices that each individual uses.  For example, I send a text and it appears to have come from my wife or son to the recipient.  Not good !
    there seems to be direction from apple that each of us should use our own apple id, thogh how do I link the accounts so enable family sharing of music/media we have purchased etc - Id also like to be able to review and keep a private eye on what my son downloads as he is 11 yrs old ! I manage this currently as we allow him access to the password for itunes (as we all use the same id today)
    Am i better setting up accounts for my wife and son independent of my own, or not. Each of us would like access to the family content we have and the master library of synced content.  I just want the most simplistic approach that apple, or others would recommend. 
    Is there a better or optimum setup for a family as we cannot be alone.....

    Thanks for the help, but a follow up question now.
    My iPhone won't arrive for a little while, but my wife already got hers and she wants to set it up now. Using my Apple ID for the purchases, if she starts setting hers up, can she change her iCloud ID to something else quickly? It keeps telling us that we have to sign in with the AppleID first.
    Should we just set up an iCloud account via normal internet before trying all this via iPhone?

  • Songs imported into Itunes only play for a few seconds

    I seem to have a problem with some of my songs in my library playing for a few seconds and then itunes jumps to the next song. I have played these songs before and they were fine. Once this happens once it always happens to a particular song. Anyone have any thoughts?
    thanks

    I think I might have found an answer - importing a folder and or Limewire!
    Either Limewire mess's with the files, folder or your system or iTunes attempts to stop illegally downloaded files being played. iTunes might also do it if importing a lot of files in one go.
    I imported a music folder that isn't mine from our home network drive that has a few tracks in it downloaded through Limewire. I re checked some of the files in Ableton Live and they are actually damaged! So I tried importing one of the Limewire tunes again individually after finding some info online (links to the pages at bottom) and the track plays no prob now. I also un-checked the "look for shared folders" in iTunes preferences.
    For about 2 years now I haven't been able to import more than 3 files at a time which is why I imported a whole folder (about 50 tracks) just after the software update and C.D importing.
    My concern is that importing a whole folder even without any Limewire downloads in it might well be treated this way by iTunes. Most of the tracks in our network drive folder that have been downloaded through Limewire are legit direct connect transfers from producer to producer or legit submitted tracks!
    Hope this helps.

    My itunes library was on my PC.  About two years ago I switched it to my Seagate server/hardrive. (itunes-preferences-advanced-change library). Last summer (2012) I bought a macbook, which seems to access the seagate server hard drive fine for word docs, excel spreadsheets,etc. It also seems to have started its own library which is not complete. My PC died this summer (I still have it though).
    Now when syncing any of the multiple devices (ipods,ipads, iphones) that we have with my mac book, itunes states that "an error occurred" or the "app cannot be found".  Itunes wants me to erase the device and sync with my macbook. The message "The iPhone “Renee’s iPhone” is synced with another iTunes library on “Renee PC”. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."appears.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • No tick box for music in iTunes preferences for setting up iCloud

    Ok I'm new to icloud and now want to set up my mac itunes library for another device. When I follow the oinstructions on how to set up icloud I get stuck on step 3 i.e. the step where you're suppose to open itunes - preferences - store and then check music, apps and books. I can only check two boxes (books and apps) and no box for music appears. What am i doing wrong or what setting needs changed?

    According to this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17681194#17681194
    There is a problem and apple is working on it. I am having the same issue. So frustrating!

  • HT201322 Downloaded a song from iTunes on my iPhone but only shows on my iPad.  Setup for same iCloud.

    Downloaded a song from iTunes on my iPhone but only shows on my iPad.  Setup for same iCloud.

    If you are syncing music to the iPhone automatically, you won't be able to play tracks on the iPhone from iTunes, the music will be grayed out.
    You can play them in iTunes if you Manually Manage the music on your iPhone though.
    You could also Transfer the purchases from your iPhone to a computer.

  • ITunes Setup for laptop and home storage

    I have a MacBook Pro. At home I have Airport Extreme with a 500GB external hard drive connected to it. I have a lot of content on the external hd, more than my laptop can hold. I am wondering how I can use my laptop and iTunes to manage the content on the external hd. Then essentially use my laptop as a pseudo iPod to transfer some content to while I go to work. Essentially, have two iTunes accounts one for the external hd and another for my laptop while I go to work. Also, if I buy content while at work, that it synch or transfer to the external hd when I get home. Any ideas? Is it possible to run to iTunes accounts on the same User profile?

  • ITunes 7 Setup Assistant appears at every iTunes Startup

    Everytime I start iTunes, the Setup Assistant asks setup questions. It seems that most setup information it collects plus other setup options entered in "Preferences" is not remembered when iTunes is shutdown. I have not seen this specific problem addressed in this "Installing & Updating..." forum so I thought I would start this thread.
    What I have tried:
    1. Uninstall and Reinstall iTunes 7.
    2. Removing and replacing "iTunes Library.itl" with my last working version.
    The problem is still there. However, after performing #2 above, it does now seem to remember that my library is located on HD "H:" and not the default "C:". Other settings are not remembered though and I still get prompted with the "iTunes Setup Assistant" each and everytime I startup iTunes. Any help in correcting this problem would be appreciated.

    I tried deleting the 2 files with the following results:
    1. C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref was present but had a date of 9/12... the date I originally updated to iTunes 7.
    2. C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Data\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref did not exist...
    3. I noted that both folders containing these files are marked "read only". (Is this proper?) I did try removing the "read only" but was not successiful. That attribute returned every time I checked.
    4. Neither of these 2 files have been rewritten even though I have restarted iTunes several times.
    I am still being asked the same questions at each startup. I dont think I mentioned that while iTunes is installed at the normal default location on my drive C:, my music library is located on my external H: drive where it has been for better than a year now. iTunes is remembering its location.
    You suggested I try setting up a new library... I assume I will be able to recover my original without much trouble. It's not huge, but I do have several thousand songs in it.

  • How can I Migrate/Split itunes/icloud account for a large family now that they have family sharing

    Ok, now that Apple has finally come out with family sharing I need to get things sorted out and I think it is going to be a mess. I have 6 family members (my spouse and 4 children) all sharing/using one itunes account. For parental reasons this made perfect sense. Now with the the advent of family sharing and such we have alot of sorting and migrating to do and I am very unsure how to go about it. Here is what we have.
    Myself - I have a 64GB iPad 3 and a 64GB iPhone 5
    Spouse - 64GB iPhone 5
    Children - x4 16GB iPhone 5C (pink, blue, green, and a yellow)
    We have had one itunes account now for several years, we used to have x4 16GB iphone 4's and a 16GB iPod touch 4 so we needed it to be shared at the time. We all have different Game Center ID's and Facetime/iMessages are all setup to the phone numbers (aside from mine which also uses the itunes e-mail). We currently have 1 upgraded icloud account with 200GB of storage on it (love the new tiers). So here are the questions.
    1) How do I go about using and isolating all the devices so they can all use the iCloud storage? Right now if I try and setup backups by device under the what to backup there is no simple "Full Backup" option, they have all the categories separated. I cannot backup my daughters contacts without forcing a merging of them and so on. Same thing with Documents and Data. Would I need to setup a different iCloud account for each device now?
    2) iTunes Music/App purchases. Now that they have a family sharing function I am assuming it would be a good time to separate all the devices (aside from my personal iPad/iPhone). If I understand correctly we need to setup a new itunes account for each and link them with family sharing, does this then allow us to disperse/move items from a singular to the multiple account (at least a one time option to move around) or would it simply be shared off the original account? My daughter for example will be 18 next summer and as such no longer under our care. How do we move her items to her account? She has a lot of purchased Music. Now keep in mind I am talking about an account for someone who was 12 when she had her first device and as such needed to be under her parents.
    I just want to state that repurchasing things is NOT an option, and to be frank,  according to Canadian laws pertaining to *licensing* we actually own the product if we paid for it and have the right to transfer the ownership thereof. This issue went through the courts regarding used copies of OEM editions of Microsoft Windows several years ago and they closed the legal *license* vs ownership separation.

    Go to appleid.apple.com to manage the ID, sign in and select to the Name, ID and Email Addresses section, then change the birth date on the bottom right.  At the present time you may not be able to enter the correct birth date, but others have had success changing the year to 2000, or the date to 1/1/2001, both of which will have child ID status.

  • What is icloud setup for Multiple users, multiple devices in family?

    What would be the recommended setup for iCloud to allow family members with multiple devices and multiple iTune accounts to share purchases, sync there own mail account, contacts, and reminders with multiple devices, and be able to sync calenders with all family calendars? Or better yet how can family members pick and choose what to sync with a common iCloud account?

    I'd like to know this to.
    We have 1 mac mini that serves as a media station that streams audio to Zeppelin air and photos & movies to our TV.
    My wife buys music on her iPhone. And takes pictures of the family.
    I buy apps and music on my iPad. And make movies of the family.
    I have a macbook pro ( itunes with home sharing,  iphoto home sharing ).
    She has a nice macbook (  itunes with home sharing, iphoto home sharing ).
    What we would want is that the mac mini collects all music / videos / media and streams it to all our apple devices via wifi ( not via internet ). But I with my appleID and she with her appleID.
    I wonder is Apple can make an GUInterface that I can understand to solve this.
    This iCloud seems not too suited.
    For families it would be easier if iOS5 would have 'home sharing' with upload and not transfer everything to CA first.

  • How to fix freeze/lock ups when opening Burn tab under iTunes Preferences

    Played around the past few nights with two PC's with the same problem after upgrading to iTunes 6.0. Would open burn tab under preferences and promptly lock up iTunes. Thought it was a driver problem, etc... Thanks to Toonz, here is what solved it simply for me on both PC's:
    Run iTunes Help, CD Diagnostics, Run "CD diagnostics" and save output file from CD diagnostics somewhere on your PC (not even sure it's necessary to save file) and you should be able to view your burner tab and the CD/DVD drives preferences. Seems that iTunes CD diagnostics file gets corrupted, and needs updating after updating iTunes.

  • IPhone syncs automatically after restore despite 'prevent automatic sync' in iTunes preferences

    iPhone 4 just restored to deal with memory issue, and after restore, it starts to sync automatically when I connect it to my laptop (OS X 10.9.5, iTunes 11.4) despite checking 'Prevent iDevices from syncing automatically' in iTunes preferences.
    iTunes summary screen for the phone, under options, shows a grayed-out 'Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected' phrase, with no box to deselected to fix it.
    Any idea what is going on?

    This one was odd:  it stopped after the first sync was finally completed--had to interrupt several times to use the phone away from the computer before all the music and photos were fully reloaded.  Now it waits appropriately for next sync.  This is probably why no one else had seen this or replied.
