Transfering music from media player to itunes

I am having trouble transfering music playlists from my media player to itunes. I have tried the 'add a folder' and 'add a file' options and when I click it nothing happens. I have also tried moving the playlists to different files and tryig to add the folder and files and have also been unsuccessful. I have also tried to 'open playlist in itunes' but still does not transfer. It rips CDs ok but can't find a way to transfer music.

Have you tried creating a fresh media library in iTunes or re-installing iTunes? MP3's should not be a problem at all as you might suspect using a "MP3 player"

  • Putting music from Media Player into iTunes???

    So....I just recently bought my Nano. I have lots of songs on my computer (that I put on there from my CDs) in Windows Media Player 10. When I connected to iTunes (to put music on my iPod) some of my previous songs from Media Player were put into iTunes, yet there are still LOTS of songs not in the iTunes Library. And I don't think that they didn't transfer because they are "protected", it has to be something else. I've tried dragging, copying, nothing is 'allowed'. I've gone to about every window, menu, and help/support site in both iTunes and Windows Media Player. This is almost a last resort.
    Thank you SO much if you have ANY information at all!!!

    I'm having the same problem, can someone help us?????

    I second the whole iTunes folder approach.
    If for some reason you have split the media folder from the library files then the media folder needs to restored to the same path it used to have while the library files can be copied into the music folder of your new profile.
    If in dobut, backup up the entire Documents and Settings folder before wiping the infected drive, but be selective about what you restore as many viruses drop active components capable of reinfecting the compuer in the temp folders and internet caches. It is much easier to backup more than you need than to discover after the fact that you no longer have access to some vital project you'd been storing in a folder on the desktop.

  • Transferring music from other programs to itunes

    how do you transfer music from windows media player to itunes??

    heya!
    I believe there that WMP files are compatible with itunes. i know that when i first loaded itunes on to my laptop, it asked if i wanted it to search for all the music on my computer. i clicked yes and it found all of my WMP files and converted them into AAC format.
    also, you can click and drag your WMP files into itunes and it should automatically change their format.
    hope this helps

  • Transferring music from my ipod to itunes

    My computer crashed and I lost all of my music. I've been trying to figure out how to transfer music from my IPod to ITunes. Any suggestions?

    " I also want to add the music that was already in my ipod"
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    However it appears that no playlists or any other info such as ratings/last played etc will transfer.
    If this is important to you, you may want to use other options.
    There's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod to iTunes.

  • Transfering MP3 library from Media Player to itunes music came but not art

    I transfered about 30mb of mp3 encoded music from my Media Player library to iTunes. The software said it was reading the artwork but nothing appears in iTunes. Is there something else to do beyond letting iTunes read the library?

    Hi there,
    I believe that unless iTunes has imported the music itself then it will not be able to get the album art automatically.
    If you have all the artwork in the folders then you may have to go through each song and add the album art to it.
    Remember you can highlight more than one song and use Get Info to add album art if they are all from the same album.
    Hope this was helpfull!

  • How do i get my music from media shout to itunes

    how do i get my music from my media shout library into itunes

    Purchased from iTunes or acquired from somewhere else.
    For purchases make sure you authorize your computer in iTunes and go to File > Transfer Purchases.
    For other songs you will need 3rd party software. Which one depends on what type of computer you have.
    Easiest way to put your music is to use your backup from your old computer and restore it on the new one.

  • Transferring music from ipod/iphone to itunes

    I recently had to replace my old hard drive.  I have a new one, but when I try to sync my ipod/iphone, it tells me I can't because it's synced with the old one.  How can I transfer my music/pics etc from my ipod/iphone to itunes on my new hard drive?

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • Transferring music from ipod shuffle to itunes library

    Our computer crashed and we want to retrieve our music by transferring it from our ipod shuffle. It only transferred 5 of the songs out of 200+???
    Please advise if you know how to do this or if it is even possible. I already authorized this pc to be able to use the existing itunes account.

    You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store.  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the songs files are on your computer's drive, add them to your iTunes library.

  • Transfering music from an itouch to itunes on a PC?

    I've been trying to transfer music from my itouch on to my itunes on my computer, but with no such luck. I have an already existing library on itunes which is backed-up, but no back-up for the music on my itouch. When trying to get the music off my itouch on to the computer, my computer can't even see the music files only photos and the only option itunes gives me is to sync (thus deleting the current music on itouch) the music library already existing.
