When I'm importing into itunes, sometimes I can edit information, sometimes not

when I'm importing into itunes, sometimes I can edit the information sometimes it doesn't allow changes.  my permissions on the drive are 'read & write', also the itunes folder.  but as I said, sometimes I can edit.  things I can't edit end up in 'unknown' folder, so I've started making playlist that I put cd's into.  Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

In iMovie, on the middle toolbar you should see the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool.
Select your photo in the Project and use this tool to select FIT to keep the entire picture and fill the extra space with black bars (letterboxing). Use CROP to make the picture fill the frame by chopping off the top ad bottom. Choose Ken Burns to create a motion effect.

  • Error message when attempting to import into iTunes

    A while ago a friend helped me put all of my music files onto an external drive. I recently purchased a second computer and was happily importing CD's, up until I migrated all data from my old computer to the new one. Now, when I try to import CD's (new ones that aren't even on the playlist referenced to the old computer and filed on the external drive), I get a warning that says "ERROR OCCURRED WHILE CONVERTING THE FILE (song title). THE REQUIRED DISC CANNOT BE FOUND.
    Is there some preference that might have been configured when the external drive was set up to receive the itunes music files, or???? Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hello RunnerGirl98,
    If you reinstall iTunes using this article, your songs will not be deleted. The Media in iTunes is stored in the iTunes folder, which is normally found in your Music folder and is not attached, or part of the iTunes application.
    It will be either one of these 2 articles depending on the OS version you have installed:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

    or
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    I would also verify where your iTunes library is stored using this information:
    Where are my iTunes files located?

  • Why is the audio on my video getting out of sync when it is imported into itunes?

    Hello,
    I have videos in the MP4 Format, and have imported them into itunes. However, during playback in itunes, the audio gets more and more out of sync as the video plays. By the end of the film the audio can be 5-6 seconds out!
    What's strange is that the source file, played with quicktime or Windows media player, is fine and works perfectly.
    Why is the audio stretched once it is imported?
    Thanks,
    James

    I have the same problem.
    Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-MA785GPMT-UD2H
    Chipset:
    North Bridge: AMD 785G
    South Bridge: AMD SB710
    Video: Integrated ATI Radeon HD 4200
    HDMI Audio through the HDMI port out to the TV.
    Tried on Windows 7 Pro 32bit and Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit.
    Tried with the integrated ALC889A audio device enabled and disabled (It seems that the video card drives the HDMI audio device though, because it still appears in Windows even if I disable the Audio device in BIOS).
    Latest iTunes and drivers installed.
    I have already tried all sugestions about matching Windows Audio settings to iTunes settings (bit depth, frequency rate).
    Apple, any suggestions? I'm not having a great customer experience after buying a pair of HD movies in iTunes.

  • After updating to the ios5, my ipad keeps restoring when i plug it into itunes.  I can't sync it or anything, and it has been restored about 20 times today and i can't get any further than that.  Please help!

    After updating to iOS 5 today, i was able to get my iphone working with virtually no problem.  The issue i am having is that after i finished with my phone, i tryied to do the same with my ipad.  Everytime it is plugged into itunes, it keeps saying it needs to restore over and over again.  I have done this about 20 times today and have lost it.  I can't sync anything with it, especially my music or calendars.  Anyone know of a solution?

    This will fix it

  • Cds appearing and dissapearing when trying to import into itunes

    Please note I am posting a new thread on this as a similar one has been incorrectly labeled as answered.
    When loading CDs into mac book pro initially track listing appears in itunes then disappears. Although the CD is still in the machine the computer does not recognise a mounted CD. Ejecting and re installing the CD always rectifies the problem. This does not happen every time a CD is installed but it happens frequently. Also occurs on a black mac book, and two different mac minis. This happens under Leopard, it happens under snow Leopard, it happens with at least the last three versions of itunes for mac. IT also happens with virtual CDs mounted from files using Toast. Any ideas or is this an itunes bug that apple have had outstanding for a long time?
    I promise I won't mark this as answered unless it is.

    I have exactly the same problem - I Tunes 9 closes down each time I try to import a cd. I run Windows XP and its the first time with any version of Itunes I've had problems importing cd. Must be a bug with the new version. Finn

  • CD disappears when try to import into iTunes

    Hello,
    I have a macbook pro that I bought in April 2008. It has the following problem:
    Upon inserting a CD, iTunes comes up, identifies the tracks and then asks if I want to import it. When I click yes, the CD usually instantaneously disappears from itunes. To get it back, I have to eject it and re-insert it. Then when it asks, once again, if I want to import it, it always succeeds with no problems whatsoever.
    This is pretty bizarre behavior. I wonder if anyone else has ever seen it or has any ideas. This has continued to happen through a number of OS X releases, including 10.6.2.

    Hi gary, yes, I'm using 10.6.2 and iTunes 9.02 myself, and it works perfectly for me, but I've seen others with serious cases of this problem with various versions of OSX and iTunes, though I have never suffered it myself on any of our family's half a dozen currently operational Macs.
    Your follow up post brought back a few more memories about the issue.
    A friend of mine suffered it extremely severely under Tiger and Leopard too and iTunes 7 etc. 90% of the time the disc would disappear when accessing CDDB on first insertion. Again even "clean installs" didn't seem to fix it (though on occasion people would find it worked for the first CD read, but not for subsequent ones - suggesting a problem of corruption of the database when the data relating to the first CD was written for some reason) . Somehow, though, it doesn't affect most people, which makes it unlikely that it is a straight iTunes/OS problem.
    Other theories over the years have involved problems in reading the disc identifier information on the CD for some reason related to the drive concerned, issues with proxy servers used by some ISPs, the use of third party "plug-ins" , conflicts with other software, you name it. None of it really seems to stack up to me. One suggestion that might be more probable involves the way that iTunes deals with the "Mount point" of the CD concerned, as Denis Lynch noted in another thread a year or so back:
    I did find a geeky workaround: the problem is that when iTunes gets the track names from CDDB, it wants to change the volume mount point for the CD from "Audio CD" to the album name. Apparently the unmount goes fine, but the mount falls on the floor.
    If you open Disk Utility in that situation, you'll see that it shows an unmounted Audio CD. Right click (Control-click if you only have one button), and select the option to mount the volume. It mounts with the iTunes-approved title, and iTunes immediately starts importing the CD.
    So if you've got a stack of CDs to import, just leave Disk Utility open to deal with the ones that get "stuck."
    One solution that I now remember people suggesting in earlier incarnations of this issue, and which appears to have worked for some, was to head to iTunes preferences and change the settings for "When you insert a CD" to "Import CD and Eject" from whatever it was currently set to. Seemed to work for some . Might be worth a try?
    If you want to have a look at some of the "history" under earlier OS and iTunes versions of this issue take a look at the very long archived thread starting at http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6045368

  • 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.

  • Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.
    For compilations that aren't, select all tracks, Get Info, and on the option tab set Part of a Compilation to No. If it already says No tick the box alongside, then click OK.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Movie import into iTunes library

    Hi all,
    I have a very large collection of DVDs - it's one of the first technologies I actually got into early...I'm usually late to the game, so to speak.
    Anyway, given that I'm moving everything to a digital format for use on my plethora of Macs and Apple TVs, I thought I'd use something like HandBrake to rip my discs and import into iTunes.
    Is this is preferrable or common method?  Is there some better way?
    Secondarily, any way to get content info (Get Info stuff) that is similar to what you see when you purchase a movie from iTunes?  I'm thinking about rating stuff, brief plot, etc.
    As always, thanks for your collective genius.

  • 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!

  • 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?
