Unable to Import Artwork into iTunes 9

Greetings from Cape Town. I am unable to use Coverflow, because I am unable to import Artwork. i Tunes gives error message when I try to get Artwork. Please help

Since neither iTunes nor Windows Media Player can import a CD, that would, as I said, suggest that it's a problem with the CD driver or the drive itself. The latter is less likely since your husband says that the drive can play a CD, just not import, but it's not impossible. I'd suggest you start by checking Dell's support site and see if they have any information on the problem or have any drivers for the CD drive that are more current and if so try those. One other thing you could try is to create a new user account in Windows, log in with that account, and try importing a CD. If it still fails. then it would definitely suggest a system-wide problem, either with hardware drivers or with Windows.
The last thing I can think of to suggest is to look for any sort of other audio burning software such as Nero. If there is any such, you can try uninstalling it and see if that makes any difference.
If none of that helps, you may want to talk to Dell technical support and see if they have any additional suggestions.
Good luck.

Unable to import videos into iTunes library

For the past few week I have been unable to import videos from my computer into the iTunes library using either the drag and drop or import file methods. I am using the latest version of iTunes and a second generation iPod touch.
I have tried using file formats: wmv, av1, mpeg & mp.4 but all refuse to load into the library. To test I have changed a file name of a video that was successfully loaded into the library a while ago and this file also refuses to load. I have also used 'Smart FLV Converter' to convert the files to 'MP4 for iPod' and this converted file also cannot be imported. All of the files play OK from the desktop.
Any suggestions as to how to overcomne this problem would be appreciated

I don't know if this helps but my iTunes was crashing everytime I tried to add a file located in the "My videos" folder. I moved the files to "My Music" Folder and had no problems. Seems like a simple/stupid solution but it worked for me. I still don't know why it wasn't allowing me to do it in the first place.

Unable to Import mp3 into iTunes

Hey Apple - Howe about a little help...!
I'm running iTunes 11.0.4. I am not able to see new CDs, in mp3 format, that I have added to my hard drive. Lots of folks are having this problem. This renders my Apple iPod, and to some extent my iPad, much useless. What do I need to do to get this fixed?
Totally Disgusted with Apple!

Celt,
Are you talking about an MP3 CD? If so..
Close iTunes
Copy the MP3 files from the CD to your hard drive
Remove the CD
Open iTunes and add the MP3 files to your iTunes library using File > Add Folder to Library

Error message when trying to import CD into itunes. "Error occured while converting the file 'name of song' The required disk coannot be found"

Hi Grigsby9,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. This error usually appears when your iTunes Media folder location is incorrectly configured in your iTunes Advanced preferences. Let’s check these preferences to makes sure that iTunes is point to a folder that exists:

Find and change the iTunes Media folder location
You can change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer.

Can't import CD into ITunes - Windows 7 error

Tried to import CD into Itunes on VAIO laptop, using Windows 7. Get the following message "Itunes has stopped working. Windows is looking for a solution. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." Have no problem importing on another computer using Windows 2000. Very frustrating. Any suggestions?

First we should check the precise version number of your iTunes. In iTunes, go "Help > About iTunes" and wait for the version number to scroll up from the bottom of the screen.
Do you have a version 10.1.0.54 ? If so, upgrade to a higher version as per the following document:
[iTunes 10.1 for Windows: iTunes may stop working and need to quit while importing or syncing audio|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3591]

Can't Drag Album Artwork into iTunes

For some reason I can no longer drag album artwork into iTunes. If I click on a song or on a group of songs and there is no artwork available, I can no longer drag album art to the "Drag Album Artwork Here" in the bottom left corner. Same goes for when I right click and say "Get Info". It will show a little green plus sign as I drag the picture over the drop area but nothing happens.
I'm running 10.4 and have made sure that I have read and write privledges to all of the specified folders.
Anyone have any other ideas?

Where are you dragging the images from? It might just be that particular site, if you're using the same location time and time again. I use Amazon music when looking for album art for iTunes and generally have good luck with it.
Are you trying to drag artwork for songs that already have artwork associated with them? Sometimes you might want to clear the downloaded artwork for those tracks and then drag in the new image. I've run into this in cases where I've downloaded a single track from iTunes but then used something else to complete the album.
Beyond those suggestions, you might want to try re-creating your iTunes Library, per the steps in this document. Note that some data may be lost, such as play counts and date added.

"Import Files into iTunes" automator action not working

I'm having an issue with a simple automator action, "Import Files into iTunes". It's the only thing I have in the workflow but when I drop audio files onto the application, the action encounters an error. In trying to figure out what was amiss, I read that there was a version number conflict after iTunes 10, so I followed the instructions here but they did not fix the issue. Does anyone have a suggestion on what to try or how to diagnose the issue? I'm running Yosemite (10.10.2) and iTunes 12.1.0.50. Thanks for the help!

Yeah, I'd happy provide details if I saw them. The message itself just says, "The action “Import Files into iTunes” encountered an error." Is there a way to get more information on the error?
Thanks!

Import Files into iTunes

I've tried creating 4 or 5 different workflows and can not get the "Import Files into iTunes" action to work. This is only part of a bigger workflow that I want to create, but it's one of the most important steps that I can't seem to make work.
There is no error in the Automator log, it shows the action completed. But nothing gets added.
Can someone confirm that this action does indeed work in Snow Leopard 10.6.2 ?

Try automator forum http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1261

Import Files into iTunes: Why not mp3?

I created a simple workflow and saved it as a Finder plug-in. Two questions:
1) Anyone know why iTunes allows (under +Add to Library+) the import of mp3 files, but when creating an Automator workflow using the +Import Files into iTunes+, the mp3 option is not supported. In other words, you have to use a different Automator function like +Add Songs to Playlist+. This works too, but it takes a long time because iTunes has to convert each file to AAC. The +Add to Library+ function in iTunes is wicked fast, and I don't care what format the files are in.
2) After creating a Finder plug-in and wanting to delete it, where does it live? I can't find it. Spotlight can't find it. I just want to remove it.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, red. It seems that +Import Audio Files+ supports mp3, but the description on the +Import Files into iTunes+ doesn't specifically include mp3. I suppose a quick test will reveal. The original reason for the question is that the Automator workflow seems to force a conversion of each mp3 file -- even when choosing the mp3 option in +Import Audio Files+ -- which obviously slows down the process.
When from iTunes I choose Add to Library, navigate to the target folder and click OK, iTunes completes the 80-or-so files in no time.
Thanks for the tip on where to find the plug-in. I deleted it. The Automator desktop apps seem to work better.

Possibly. Media Go supports a variety of music formats, some of which can be imported in to iTunes and then synced on to an iPhone, however some of its formats cannot be imported in to iTunes.
See http://mediago.sony.com/enu/supported-file-formats/ for a list of formats supported by Media Go. iTunes for Windows supports MP3, AAC, WAV, and can import and convert WMA files as well. However iTunes does not support ATRAC, or FLAC.
Furthermore, if some of your music has been bought from an Internet music store it might be procted by DRM. If so it cannot be imported in to iTunes.
To do the importing you would either drag the music files in to iTunes, or tell iTunes to open them. See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1347

Cannot import CDs into iTunes, disc is corrupted and unreadable error.

Cannot import CDs into iTunes, keep getting disc is corrupted and unreadable error. Advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply!
I downloaded the program and ran it, got to the point where it says I have errors that need to be fixed... but it appears I have to pay for the rest of the program to actually repair these errors. Is this incorrect?
If I do have to pay, then I'd like to look for an alternative... the program is $40; of course, that's cheaper than buying a new iPod, but I want to avoid that too.

Error trying to import CD into iTunes

I put a music CD into my Mac. iTunes read it, found the album name, track names, etc. I clicked on "Import CD" (my import settings are set to Apple Lossless, Error Correction=on). Received an error message that said "Error occurred while converting the file - An Unknown Error Occurred (-50)". It happens with any audio CD that I put in. I don't think I've changed anything in my system, so I'm at a bit of a loss...up until this week, I've not had any problems importing CDs into iTunes (I've imported hundreds of CDs into my library over the last few years)...
Any ideas?

Something was wrong with the iTunes library. I pointed iTunes to a different library, then pointed it back, and everything was fine.

+So i recieved my comp back after the second motherboard replace (we won't get into that one),+
That sounds like the noir household nightmare with our Gateway Vista box (we had to swap out/reinsert virtually everything else but the motherboard).
+An error occurred during the installation of assembly ‘Microsoft.VC80.CRT,publicKeyToked=”1fc8b3b9a1e1833b”,type=”win32”,version8.0.5 0727.762”,processorArchitecture=”x86’”.Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x80073712+
Let's try getting an installer log to the Apple Engineers with that one.
1. Open a command prompt window. (Start menu > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.)
2. Drag and drop iTunesSetup.exe onto the window so that the full pathname of the file is at the command line prompt.
3. Type in a space, then the following line:
/l*v C:\log.txt
4. Hit return.
5. The installer will create a log file:
C:\log.txt
Find that file and send it as an attachment to this email address: [email protected]
in the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
- A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
- The username you are using in the thread
- The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
- the version of Windows you are using (mention service packs or specific flavor of Vista)
- A concise description of the issue you are seeing
- The exact text of the error message you are seeing

Can I rip a DVD and import it into iTunes?

Can you import movies into iTunes from a DVD, like you can music from a CD?

If you are talking about commercial DVDs, we can't help you here. Commercial DVDs are encrypted. In order to copy the DVD, you'd need to break that encryption which is illegal in the U.S. (and, I think, in Canada). Because it's illegal, the terms of use of this forum prohibits discussion of software or methods.
Sorry.
