Songs wont import into itunes any more.

None of my songs will import to my itunes library any more i already have some songs on it but no more will import. Any ideas about wat i can do? any help would be muchly apreciated

I've tried that it doesn't work either. And I have another questions since nobody is answering my other one..
iTunes won't play!!!! I don't know why. I've read the whole thing on iTunes support and I've done everything and it's still not playing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it. Someone else told to me to go to the 'control panel' and click 'add new software' and click 'generic audio' or something like that and there is no 'generic audio' and when i start up my computer something says "new hardware found, do you want to download it" or something like that and then it doesn't find it. I'm goin nuts here help me.. thanks

  • ONE song wont import into iTunes?

    Okay, so i have a trance mix that i want to import into iTunes. For some reason this song is the only one that won't import? It opens winamp and windows media player 10 but itunes just doesnt do anything when i try to play it. I've tried importing the whole folder, file, add a file, right click and open with iTunes program....nothing seems to work? Any help?

    It is probably a WMA protected file. These are files that will run on windows and some other platforms but it is not supported by iTunes. I had the same problem and was very frustrated because it was one of my favorites, i purchased it from the Wal-Mart site and they use the wma format. Was just out of luck on that song!

  • Mpeg1 video wont import into itunes for windows

    This is a rather stange one.
    I have an MPEG video that will run happily on MAC using either Quick Time or Itunes. Try the same on windows and one gets a 2048 error from quick time. itunes claims it's an unknown file type.
    Real Player on window or MAC is perfectly happy with the file though.
    I really need to get into itunes so that it can then loaded into a video ipod.
    Any clues ?

  • Mp3 files wont import into itunes from external hard drive

    I just switched from PC to Mac and have the new aluminium mac book.For my PC I had all my music stored on my external hard drive.I have begun transferring most of it to itunes,but some of the files since hooking my external hard drive to my Mac book have turned into 'Apple Files' which appear to be document files as opposed to music files.Is there a way that i can convert them into the itunes format?

    WMA is not supported directly by iTunes. In iTunes for Windows, you can convert (but not play) these files, as long as they're not copy protected, to an iTunes-supported format.
    Short of running Windows on your new Mac and handling this with iTunes for Windows, or using another (your old?) PC to convert the WMA files to another format (I would suggest using Apple Lossless, as otherwise you will lose some sound quality unnecessarily--unless the WMAs are WMA Lossless...), your only other option would be to play the files with software for OS X other than iTunes. In that case, you might consider VLC, which is handy for almost countless other audio and video files anyway.

  • Receive message after importing serveral songs from CD into iTunes (latest ver 11.1.5.5)... "Error occurred while converting the file 'songname'.  The required folder cannot be found."  CD/DVD ROM is no longer recognized until restart.

    I have the same problem.  I recently moved my music from a Vista PC to a new Laptop with an external CD drive. It will copy one song from the CD and it will show in the Music file and then I get the message ' Error importing a CD - Folder not found'.  I must unplug the CD drive and plug it back in.  I have seen no fix for this problem.

    Switch (free basic version) - http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html  - I'm not sure if this will do WMA
    All2MP3 - http://download.cnet.com/All2MP3/3000-2140_4-190407.html - mixed success with WMA
    Flip4mac - need the intermediate payware version which lets you convert.  Use with Quicktime player.Flip4Mac - http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.asp?prodid=flip4mac wmv  - The free version will let Quicktime play but not convert Windows Media files.
    After installation a new Flip4Mac pane will appear in System Preferences.  Make sure you set the boxes to ensure that it will play WMV files in Quicktime.

    You have encountered the symptoms of iTunes being strict/finicky/incompetent (pick your own interpretation) about slight variations in MP3 formats. Treat the files with a 3rd party tag cleanup program, such as MP3 Validator, and then they usually add to iTunes without further problem.

  • My music is on a nas loaded by Windows Media Player in WAV. When I import into Itunes only the songs appear no album name etc.

    My music is on a nas. Loaded using windows media player in WAV.
    When I import into Itunes only the record apears, no Album name etc
    How can can I see all the details

    Information is often stored as tags embedded in the file.  WAV does not support tagging. I don't know how WMP works but iTunes keeps its own database about media.  For many audio formats, track information will be stored both in iTunes' database and in the file itself as tags.  With formats such as mp3 most tags (not all) will 'travel' with the file when copied.  This does not happen with WAV where the information is only stored in the player application's database.

  • Know why my mix from Garage Band imported into iTunes is incomplete?

    I got a spankin' new iMac and I'm trying to download original Garage Band mixes (combo of midi and real instrument tracks, no more than 12) into iTunes to write a CD. Regardless of the mix format (aif, aac, mp3), when I import into iTunes, some mixes only inlcude one or two of the tracks (the songs play perfectly in Garage Band). One attempt with a song from an aif file imported into iTunes as 9 seperate files, one for each track!

    What steps did you take?
    Usually you would be able to export song to iTunes via Share --> Send song to iTunes...
    I never encountered any problems but maybe you are doing something different?

  • CD wont load into itunes

    Hi raydr98,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  If CDs aren't importing into iTunes as expected, here are some steps you can try:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Import songs from CDs
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12486
    I have bolded specific steps I would try:
    If you have trouble importing songs from an audio CD
    If iTunes doesn’t recognize audio CDs or if you’re having trouble importing songs, check the following:
    If iTunes doesn’t recognize an audio CD (it doesn’t appear in the iTunes window), quit iTunes, then open it again by double-clicking the app icon in the iTunes folder in the Program Files folder on your hard disk. Do not open iTunes using the shortcut on your desktop. If iTunes now recognizes the CD, delete the iTunes shortcut and create a new one.
    Choose Edit > Preferences, and click Import Settings. If the “Use error correction when reading Audio CDs” checkbox is not selected, select it. If it’s already selected, deselect it.
    If you’re having trouble importing songs, make sure you check your computer or drive manufacturer’s site for firmware updates and install any that are appropriate for your computer and CD or DVD drive.
    Make sure you have the latest software updates for Windows or your CD or DVD drive. Check the Windows website and your computer or drive manufacturer’s site for updates. Also make sure you have the latest drivers for your video and sound cards.
    If you have more than one CD or DVD drive, try using iTunes with each drive.
    To see if iTunes can find any problems with your CD drive, choose Help > Run CD Diagnostics and choose DVD/CD Diagnostics. For help with understanding the diagnostics results and other CD troubleshooting information, see Additional troubleshooting tips for burning issues at the Apple Support website.
    If it’s taking a long time to import a song (more than 10 minutes) from an audio CD, the CD may be dirty or scratched. Try cleaning the CD with a soft, lint-free cloth, and then importing the songs again.
    Additionally, if you have access to a second computer you might try the affected CDs in it to rule out the CDs as the issue.
    Cheers,
    - Ari

  • HT1473 I have a whole bunch of CDs that I would like to import into iTunes. However, I'd like for them to be stored "in the Cloud" as opposed to on my PC, which would simply take up too much space. How would I go about doing this? Thanks so much

    I have a whole bunch of CDs that I would like to import into iTunes. If I do that, would the songs still reside on my PC (which would take up too much space), or is there a way to get them "into the Cloud"? Thanks so much

    Sign up to iTunes Match, though I'd consider investing in more storage. If space is a problem now then you're probably not backing up your existing media and content, which you should most certainly do.

  • I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise.

    I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise. I have seen lots of old posts which go on about converting files but am wondering wherher at the current time with the latest versions of itunes and apple tv whether this should by now be a virtual play out of the box solution.
    I have tried connecting my atv to the amp by optical cable but that didnt produce anything better and am assuming that a hdmi cable should be able to reproduce everything an optical cable does.
    Is this something I should be able to achieve without having to recode the files?
    Tracks are imported to itunes as apple lossless, have tried setting the atv audio settings to auto and 16 bit, neither works yet I was told some time ago by an apple rep that the atv shoud be able to handle any type of audio as it just passes it to the amp to decode. I am not stupid but not that technical when it comes to audio and bitrates etc so any explaination would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

  • HT1473 It seems like many commercial music CDs won't import into iTunes (copy protection?), so you can only play them from the disc, not your other devices. Am I missing something?

    More and more commercial music CDs won't seem to import into iTunes - they just spin, falter, and spit out. I would think I had a setting wrong except older CDs load with no problem. I'm guessing there's copy protection on the newer ones, which seems unfair if you want to, say, buy a CD that has bonus material not available via iTunes (and then have to buy the regular material again on iTunes). Is there a way around this? An easy fix so I can keep buying CDs when I want to? I know it's a technology that's on the way out, but it's not gone yet.

    Audio CD copy protection is relatively rare. I doubt its use is on the increase as it would be just one more nail in CD's coffin. On the few occasions I've bought CDs that won't rip I've gone straight back to the store for a refund. If the drive is attempting to read at max. speed it might help to force it to read slower (if indeed you have that as an option) and it may help to switch the error correction mode.
