Suddenly unable to upload mp3 files using iTunes Match

I've got a USB turntable and have enjoyed digitizing a lot of LPs and copying them into iTunes.  I digitized a 10-track album just yesterday, and can copy the resulting mp3 files into iTunes, where they play fine, but they won't upload to iCloud using iTunes Match. It gets to the point where it's supposed to upload tracks it cannot match and just sits there.  I use Audacity to digitize from the USB turntable, and it exports as MP3 file. This has worked over many albums but now seems to be stuck. Any thoughts on what the problem might be?

So my issue appears to be with uploading mp3 files that probably won't match anything in iCloud.
iTunes match matches Audio files by comparing the audio and not by comparing the tags for the album. My iTunes Library contains more than 500 songs that have been ripped and matched from vinyl records or audio tapes.
The songs will not match, if there is not the exact same recording in the store, but if the audo quality is good and the tempo of the player was exact, the song will be matched.

  • Problems accessing music from original PC iTunes library after uploading to iCloud using iTunes Match

    I uploaded my entire iTunes library to iCloud using iTnes match and then deleted library from that PC. I can aceess my tunes from iCloud on my iPad and work PC but when i try to listen to iTunes music from th PC that held the original library it looks for the file on the hard drive even though the cloud icon is beside the track in iTunes. Some of the tracks have a ! And no cloud but I can't play any of it. What's going on?
    Thanks

  • Unable to add mp3 files to iTunes 10.3.1.55 (Windows 7)

    Issue:  iTunes and Windows explorer crash (freeze, locks up, stops working) when I add mp3's to iTunes.  I am using the drag and drop method but have also tried the File>Add File... option.  Same result.
    After this occurs, I have to open the Task Manager, stop iTunes and explorer.exe and restart the applications.  iTunes becomes completley frozen and Windows explorer becomes handicapped.
    This issue relates specifically to *.mp3 files.  Am able to add other media types without any problem (i.e. *.wav files, video, etc.).
    Confirmed file extension is *.mp3 (not mpeg)
    Removed an existing, stable file from iTunes library and tried to import it again - same issue.  Does not appear to be file corruption problem.
    Have confirmed file ownership and modification permissions are set to full control, etc. in Windows
    Removed and re-installed fresh version of iTunes.  No change.
    iTunes 10.3.1.55
    Windows 7 (32 Bit, 3 GB RAM, Dual Core 2.6 ghz) [Stable PC]
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Actually it's a good question ... I have not done it before manually. If the folder exists does it mean that I have done it before?
    The folder is completely empty.  I reconfirmed that I have full-control persmissions on all folders below my username ...

    I have restricted access to the C:\User folder

  • Uploading new files to iTunes U suddenly not working

    One of the instructors I support has been uploading mp3 files to iTunes U all semester. Suddenly, he can't upload. He starts it, and it says it is finished, but the Upload progress bar never goes away and his new file is never added to the list of files. I can upload just fine to his shell from my machine. We are using the same version of iTunes (7.6.0.29). What can I do to help him?

    Same prof had the same problem, so I went over to his office this morning. He stepped through the process, opened it in Audacity, saved it as an Audacity project, and exported it to MP3. During upload, it still reached the end showing the filesize uploaded and the total filesize and hung there without finishing. Like your experience, it has worked in the past. I showed him how to drag the WAV file into iTunes and convert it to MP3, edit the metadata in Info and upload that file. That worked like a charm. At this point, I'm recommending going through iTunes if there's no editing. But the question remains, why is this happening?

  • Artist search is broken for MP3 files in iTunes 11?

    I am having a first world problem.
    I am using iTunes 11.01 on 2 Macs - an old 2006 iMac running 10.7.5, and a new MacBook Pro running 10.8.2. Both exhibit the same odd behavior.
    If I add new MP3 files to iTunes (such as tracks from Amazon), artist name search may fail even though it is 100% certain that the artist is present in my library
    If I add new AAC files, buy tracks from the iTunes Store or rip a CD to AAC, everything works fine
    If I search for the album name(s), those always work correctly.
    I can "fix" this by unchecking the search parameter "Search entire library", but that is not terribly satisfying. I cannot determine what is causing only certain file types to have this problem.
    This is complicated by the fact that I use iTunes Match to coordinate about 20,000 tracks among my 4 devices (iMac, MacBook, iPhone, iPad).
    Recipe:
    Buy MP3 tracks from Amazon from an artist not presently in the library
    Add them to iTunes (the Amazon downloader does this automatically)
    Verify that the tracks play fine (they do)
    Search for the artist name
    Expected result:
    Artist name is found, album is displayed
    Actual result:
    Nothing is found
    Bizarro exception:
    Go to another device connected to iTunes Match for this account
    Search for the same artist as above
    It works
    Visual example:
    In this example, I downloaded the new Bill Fay album from Amazon (hey, it was on sale!). As you can see, the search field is looking for "Bill Fay", and reporting that there are "No Results". But the album is plainly visible (and playing) in the album browser.
    My hunch is that something about the new MP3 files causes the iTunes database to fail in some manner. The reason that other machines connected to iTunes Match work correctly is that the MP3 files are not present; only the "Matched" AAC files from the iTunes store and in iCloud.
    Thoughts, y'all?

    For no reason I can fathom, search for the very same album that was causing grief yesterday now works normally, with "Search Entire Library" turned ON.
    What happened in the interim? Not much. I took the MacBook from my office to my home, and thus changed networks, and I restarted the MacBook for unrelated reasons (I restart every few weeks just because I'm old and superstitious...). I did NOTHING to iTunes during that time.
    Spooky.

  • I can't import mp3 files into iTunes

    Just recently, I find that I can't drag/drop (or import) .mp3 files into iTunes (12.1.0.50).
    I did confirm that the files aren't locked.
    Any ideas?  Thanks!

    No mp3 files from any source, including iTunes itself, or just some particular batch of mp3s files from some unspecified source?  It isn't unusual for some encoders to produce mp3s that are not compliant with iTunes.  You can try using the application MP3 Scan+Repair (http://triq.net/mac/mp3-validator-mac-os-x) to fix them but sometimes you have to re-encode them.  Try playing with Quicktime Player instead and report if it will play the files.
    Oh, it also isn't unusual that files do not have labels built in.  They are adding to iTunes but not ending up where you expect them to be.

  • HT1660 using lossless files with itunes match

    Creating lossless files in itunes dupicates the file,I use itunes match, how can I just use the lossless files for playback, I stream music to a squeezbox touch.

    Hi,
    Tracks will be matched as 256kbps AAC. Non matched 320 AAC will be uploaded as 320 AAC  and appleloss transcribed to 256 AAC.
    The tracks on your hard drive will not change unless you decide to delete original and download matched version or 256 AAC in the case appleloss less files. Uploade 320 AAC files will be same file.

  • Streaming m3u files using iTunes and not QuickTime plug-in

    Hi,
    I am listening to mp3 files using a webserver and streaming m3u files. When I click on the url I get the QuickTime plug-in. I don’t like the QuickTime plug-in very much so I would like to have iTunes starting instead of QuickTime.
    I have chosen to use iTunes for m3u files but it do not work. If I save the m3u file to my disc and double click iTunes is starting as I want but not when clicking on the link in Safari.
    Is there any solution to get iTunes starting when clicking on a link instead of QuickTime plug-in?
    The link looks like this: http://www.samplelink.info/custom.m3u?ltype=SEARCHRESULTS

    Hi
    I'm generally ignorant in the way of those computer thingies, but seeing as no one else has responded, I'll venture my poorly informed opinion.
    It seems to me that what you're asking for can't be done (as yet). What you would need is an "iTunes plug-in" effectively, which I don't think exists.
    The only way you could set iTunes as the default for playing m3u is to leave the web/browser context (i.e. by downloading the m3u file) and then opening it with iTunes, which you already know how to do.

  • Why can't I add mp3 files to itunes?

    I'm running iTunes 11.1.5 I've been able to add mp3 files to iTunes by going to file-->add folder to library-->and selecting My Music. I have 5,000+ mp3 files in that folder that USED to play fine on itunes, but they don't show up! I can still play a song by double clicking, but it doesn't stay in my iTunes library. Any ideas? Or is this just a really annoying bug?

    I'm having this problem too. Not with all mp3 files, just some. But this particular file I can't even double click to listen.......
    Hope you get a reply!

  • Can't upload mp3 files to server - could with version 6

    I need to upload mp3 files to a server. This was possible in FireFox version 6, but I unfortunately upgraded to version 10.0.2. Now it just says "connecting" and "sending request" without any results.

    Hi there. First off thank you for your interest and your help.
    I have done what you suggest probably 30 times as I have obsessed over this crazy problem for a couple straight weeks before I finaly gave up on CS5.5
    I'm not sure what you mean by REMOTE server. The only server settings I am aware of are the ones in Dreamweaver. Here they are:
    5.0 Settings:
    Server Name = the same values on each
    Connect Using = FTP
    FTP Address = same numeric value on 5.0 & 5.5 port 21
    User name = same on both
    Password = same on both
    Root directory = is blank (I have tried it using / with no luck as well)
    web URL = http://ftp.westbrookadvertising.com/www/htdocs/
    Passive FTP is checked & Use FTP Peformance optimization is checked.

  • FAQ: Unable to import MP3 files in Flash Professional CS6

    If you are unable to import mp3 files in Flash Professional CS6, ensure that you update QuickTime(7.7.1) and iTune(10.5.3.3) versions. This is necessary to import .mp3 files of bitrates higher than 192kbps.

    Yep that worked!
    The "update" in the library would not update the content but the drag and drop worked fine.
    Note: The path in the update dialog shows a relative path and after the drag and drop it shows an absolute path to the file
    I also had an issue with the audio being changed from stream to event.
