  • Export Itunes music to MP3

    Is it possible to export Itunes music to MP3 files? If so, what is the process to do this from Itunes. Thanks.
    Mufutau

    I thought that was for importing?
    It's not just for importing. The import setting controls the format available for the convert option. Once converted, move the MP3 files as needed; their location can be found by right-clicking them.

  • When I tried to backup itunes music folder- 15.1gig- to ext. hrd drive using drag

    When I tried to backup itunes music folder - 15.1gig - to ext. hard drive using drag & drop, only 5.9gig transferred to the new folder. Tried again with same result.   Any ideas?

    Fast backup for iTunes library  (Windows)
    Grab SyncToy  2.1, a free tool from MS. This can be used to copy your entire iTunes library (& other important data folders) onto another hard drive or network share. You can then use SyncToy periodically to synchronise or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the new or updated files will be copied saving lots of time.
    Unlike Windows copying routine, SyncToy won't need to copy files that have already been copied successfully again and if it has problems reading any specific files these will be listed as failures, but the rest of the files will get backed up rather than the process grinding to a halt.
    If your media is all organised below the main iTunes folder then you should also be able to open the backup library on any system running the same version of iTunes, regardless of the drive letter or path it appears on.

  • How to export itunes playlist to sd card

    I have an Audi A4 with a SD card reader, I have tried to export my play lists into it with no succes.
    can anybody help me?

    Basically it's the file naming structure that's important.  Ignore burning instructions.
    Do not rename the copies used by iTunes!  Put them on your card and rename those copies.
    You will have to read your car's manual for what it says about media playback.  Just about every player is different.

  • I am trying to export my music from my I phone to my work computer

    I am trying to export music from my Iphone4S onto my work computer...it is not allowing me to export...it just syncs the 3 songs I downloaded to my work computer. Any suggestions?

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991  These are mostly suitable for a single time need and not for regularly updating a machine with non-Store content.  For that you should just transfer files using a flash drive.
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • Getting Error Message When Trying to Access iTunes Music

    Hi!
    Need some help.
    Little Mac Mini has been through a lot after foobaring after the last update. To bring you up to speed, I had to get Apple Genius Bar to fix the problem but they re-installed the OS by installing 10.4.7, Safari 2.0.4 and iTunes 7.0.x even though it had had 10.4.11, Safari 3.0.4 and iTunes 7.5 on it before the problem. Even when it was offline with Safari and mail crashing, iTunes worked fine. After Apple's re-installing 10.4.7, iTunes had problems and gave me a message that it could not play the video files because the quicktime version was too old. So Quicktime too was re-installed using an older version. Why did Apple Genius Bar fellow do this?
    Anyway... after this I found an underlying problem with the directory and had to restart with Tiger install disc and run Repair Disk to fix it. Then I got the computer back up to 10.4.11, Safari 3.0.4 and iTunes 7.5 using Apple's combo update and Software update. Repaired permissions and verified disk, everything.
    So here is the problem, I can not get iTunes to access my music on the external hard drive anymore. I remember getting a message that suggested that something happened to the xml file.
    Here's the thing: I have two complete copies of the iTunes music on two external hard drives. I also have, in addition to these, a complete copy of the iTunes Music backed up using the Apple program "Back-Up." Usually, I keep iTunes pointing to the music folder on one of the external hard drives, but now, it insists on opening up the iTunes music on the internal which has very little music on it. I know how to open the other music libraries by holding down the option key and starting iTunes and choosing a library. In the past when I did this I got iTunes up with all of my music, etc. fine. I used to be able to access the music library on one external and then switch to the other library by holding the down the option key while starting iTunes. But now, I get a message that says "An iTunes Library file could not be found in the folder 'iTunes Music.' Please change to another" irregardless of which library I choose. What does this message mean? How do I get iTunes to access the music in these libraries again?
    I know that the music libraries are all fine on the externals, because I have gone and found them. All is okay with that, but I can't get iTunes to see them. Could this be because the xml file is missing? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Not in the main hard drive or on any of the externals. If it is missing and I need it, where can I get it and where, exactly do I put it. I am a bit sketchy on my understanding of the file hierarchy as you can tell.
    I do have back-up. Would a restore fix the problem. My little mac only has about 6 gigs left in it's internal so there is not enough room to put the music back into the internal iTunes that it is currently working from. Can I restore the back up version on to one of the externals? I don't know really what to do.
    What am I missing? Thank you so much!- Charlotte

    Well... no response.?
    Anyway.... solved my own problem. Apple should hire me.
    Actually read another post and got an idea. Held down the option key while starting iTunes. Got the window that asks if I want to create a new library or to choose a library. I had been choosing and finding that my libraries on the two external hard drives were damaged. Yes... I think it was because the iTunes Library files and the iTunes Library xml files were missing. So instead of choosing library, I chose to create a new library. Of course it brought up iTunes with nothing in it. I opened the folder "iTunes" on that same external hard drive and boldly clicked and dragged it on to the empty Music section of iTunes. It imported! First importing everything. Music, podcasts, video, audio books, etc. and then imported album art and then boom, it was all there. With trepidation, I closed iTunes and reopened it and yes, all is there still... like in.... it works! It plays! I've been listening to music while typing this.
    Of course, the playlists and play counts, ratings are gone. Yes... I expected that, but I have all of the media and that is what is important. Even the things I downloaded just before the problem happened is in there. Okay... well that's good.
    Hey.... what ever you do, keep back ups and copies, like several and in several formats and all over the place. For instance, most of my music is backed-up in five places. On a cd, also on a dvd, and also in three places on two different external hard drives!
    Okay.. for the weird thing and it's only weird to me because I obviously do not completely understand the file system in the mac. It's this: Before I created this new library, when I went to the external hard drive I found the folder labeled "iTunes" and no other folders. The iTunes folder only contained the media content and I could not find the library or library xml files. Now after importing that one iTunes folder into the newly created library and allowing it to get everything into it, going to the external hard drive I had expected to see a new folder with a new copy of all of the music content in it but instead I found a new folder labeled " iTunes1" and opening it, I found the library and library xml files. Ah.... so if I am understanding this correctly, what "creating a new library" did was to add in new the library and library xml files that were missing, but it still accessed the "iTunes" folder with all of the content that was already there. So... in essence fixing the problem. Yes... this would be correct because the external has the same amount of gigs used as it had before I created the new library. This is way cool! And no, I did not mess anything up, my computer's internal hasn't enough space for the iTunes music content and it's showing the same amount of space used so it's not like it moved the stuff into the internal. It couldn't do that, anyway.
    I shall thank the guys on the other post for their help. Hope this helps others.
    By the way... this whole problem happened originally because apparently my hard disk had errors in the directory and the downloading of the last security update (security update 2007-009) was just too much for it.
    Look before updating always check by going to Utilities and performing a "permissions repair" and also running "Verify disk," even if you see that your S.M.A.R.T. disk shows "verified." If verify disk shows any errors or problems then perform a disk repair. Do this before any update or installation or you may run into serious trouble. To do this get out your OS install disk. Use the Tiger one if your computer is currently running Tiger. Leopard one if it's using Leopard. Put the disk in and re-start your computer. As soon as it is off and before it even begins to start up, hold down the C key on the keyboard and keep holding it down until you get the message asking what language you want. Don't panic, this is correct. It will look like it wants to install the OS again. Don't re-install the OS. But you can choose the language. Here I was panicking and I don't want you to. At the top you will see the installer bar. Go to Disk Utility up on that bar and click on that, it will take you to Disk Utility and you will then and only then be able to perform a disk repair by clicking on "Repair Disk." Do it! Do it a couple of times until the thing reports that the disk has no problems. I forgot how it states this but I do remember that the lettering is in green. Green is great! Close Disk Utility. Quit Installer. A window will come up asking you to choose where to restart from so choose your internal hard drive and it should restart and be good to go.
    Trust me, the updates are fine. 10.4.11, Safari 3.0.4 and iTunes 7.5 are good, it's existing problems in your computer's directory or keychains that is causing the problems when updating or installing new stuff. I had to learn all of this the hard way, even though I tried to keep my mac clean and in top shape, and even though I asked and asked the Genius Bar guys at the local Apple store if there is anything more I needed to know to prevent difficulties. I learned all this here, in these discussions, in answer to my posts under other sections. Thanks Klaus1, Hawaiian_Starman, dechamp, and baltwo!
    Okay.. if I got anything wrong in my descriptions, please, please correct me! I don't want to be inaccurate. I want to know this stuff!
    Thank you so much for persevering through my long post, here. -Charlotte

  • ITunes 9.0.2 Crashes Trying to Access iTunes Music Store on Startup

    HI, everyone,
    I installed iTunes 9.0.2 today in preparation for an iPhone software upgrade, but iTunes freezes 100% of the time just after it starts up and tries to access the iTunes Music Store. There's a bit of activity in the progress bar when iTunes first starts, and then the progress bar for accessing the store shows half way finished and the program crashes (every time).
    I've reinstalled, rebooted, removed and replaced the preference files and my library, all to no avail.
    I'm running WinXP Pro SP 3, patches all up to date, but now I can't access my library on my computer nor can I upgrade my iPhone.
    Others of you have had similar problems; one of you reported a "parental control" issue with CA security suite. I have Trend Micro and can't find any parental controls to deal with.
    I have IE 8 installed but use Firefox 3.0.15.
    This has been a horrible day. I have many papers to grade for my college classes and expected the installation to go smoothly (as the ones in the past have; iTunes 8 worked great).
    Please help!

    Hi, b noir,
    No, I'm afraid I don't have Nod32 installed. I wish I did--maybe a simple fix!
    I'm working from home using the laptop the school supplied me. It's a domain machine, and Trend Micro's OfficeScan is installed but it's offline (though it seems to be working). The Windows firewall is disabled, probably because of the school's antivirus installation, so there doesn't seem to be a setting I can access.
    I'd guess something on my machine is forcing iTunes to free as it starts to access the Music Store. My heart just sinks every time I start iTunes (dozens of times today), only to see it freeze solid every single time I open it.

  • Help!!!  Trying to recreate iTunes Music Library file(s)

    Long story, but basically starts out with me being dumb and trying to move iTunes files in Windows, without reading iTunes instructions.
    Anyway, to cut a long story short - I was trying to move files from my C drive to my D drive (C having run out of space). Did this in Windows explorer - natch iTunes finds no Music Library Files.
    I've copied back the files (from D to C), but having restarted iTunes, still no Music Library (no songs listed, no playlists etc.) - the two library files (XML file and IML(?) file) have been overwritten, i.e. they're empty. I have one backup old iTunes library file (the non-XML file) from Dec 07 (from "Previous iTunes Libraries"). I have tried reinstalling this to the iTunes directory, but still no avail.
    So, any kind people out htere able to tell me if I have any options? (everything crossed). I can live without my playlists as I can just recreate (also I have on my iPod so hopefully I can rescue?) but I really need to be able to reinstate my list of music files again in the iTunes window, or regenerate a new one. The files are all there, and iTunes is up to date, it just won't recognise.
    HELP! PLEASE!!!
    Cheers.

    The File/"Add Folder to Library" command (then pointing to where your iTunes Music files are) sorts this. Doesn't get playlists back however.

  • Tried to backup Itunes music, now it's gone

    I'm getting the error message on all my Itunes songs, "original file could not be found." The songs don't seem to be anywhere on my computer...A couple weeks ago, I dragged my Itunes music folder onto my flash drive. Now I'm out of the country, and my flash drive is at home, so I'm not even sure if I'm on there. Are my songs somewhere on my computer and I'm not seeing them? In the future how do I backup my Itunes library onto a flash drive without losing all my songs? It sounds incredibly simple but clearly I am not getting it...

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Exporting iTunes Music to Ext HDD

    Hi all,
    I just bought a Seagate 300GB Ext HDD with Firewire.
    My intention is to move all songs from iTunes currently in my iMac HDD to the Seagate Ext HDD. Thereafter, I hope to access my iTunes from this ext HDD.
    Pse advise on
    a. Whether there is a need for me to partition the HDD further as I have partition it into 80GB (for iMac HDD backup) and 320 GB.
    b. How to export all somgs in iTunes fron my iMac to the ext HDD
    c. What else I need to do?
    I am also seeing a few folders in my finder, they are :
    a. Music.- Inside this folders, I am having:
    - a few other artiste music folders
    - a iTunes folder
    - gararage band folder containing my own mixes
    - music art work for some of the CD covers
    - plus a whole list of MP3 music.
    b. New Music. - Just MP3 music
    I am currently using iTunes Ver 6.0.4(3) and on OS X ver 10.3.9
    Looking forward to freeing up space on the iMac.
    Thank you
    TC

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Good choice getting an external drive. On the iMac partition (80gb), look into using SuperDuper for creating a clone backup. Great app. Another choice would be CarbonCopy Cloner.
    The partitions are really up to you. My choice would be to create one partition matching your existing computer HD, a second parition for holding a "bare-bones" copy of OS X (perhaps including Utility apps. and a browser), and the 3re partition for music etc.). Use Disk Utility to create the partitions after plugging in your drive to the computer.
    iTunes - best way to move the music is simply drag/drop your music folder (if you want all music on the external), or your iTunes folder (if you only want iTunes related items on the external) to the external drive after partitioning. Remember though, any music you move to the external to "free up space" still leaves you lacking a backup copy. Something to consider, especially regarding music, garage band items etc. you value. Lacking another external source, and not wanting to keep music on your main drive, consider burning your more valuable items to DVD.
    Once the music is transfered to the external, go back to iTunes>Preferences>Advanced>General>Music folder location and select "change", redirecting iTunes to the new external location.
    Post back with results, or any other questions.

  • Export itunes playlist on SD card

    Hi, I want to export a playlist from itunes on to an SD card. Is there a way to do this (other than drag&drop or Copy/Paste) so that I can keep the order in which the tracks are organised on my itunes playlist?

    Basically it's the file naming structure that's important.  Ignore burning instructions.
    Do not rename the copies used by iTunes!  Put them on your card and rename those copies.
    You will have to read your car's manual for what it says about media playback.  Just about every player is different.

    Are you saying that you have a CD of stock music that you have a license for or custom music that was written for your project and was delivered to you on a CD? And that when you put that CD in your machine that iTunes started automatically and imported the music to your library and now you need to know how to get it out?
    Or did you buy this music from the iTunes store?
    I am trying to understand so that I can help you.
