Close windows media player, open iTunes. Open My Computer, navigate to the folder on your hard drive that contatins your music and drag that onto the Library in iTunes.

  • I have converted most of my windows media files to itunes. However I had to close it down about 3 quarters of the way through. It then processed the album art. How can I convert the files that it didn't finish doing the first time? thanks

    Hi there,
    hope you can help me. I helped my sister convert her window media files to itunes and set up an account for her. Unfortunately her computer is really slow and it was really late and we had to turn it off. It processed some of the album art for the files that it had converted. However, some songs were not converted and because there was quite a few left, I don't really know which ones did not get converted as I selected  all of the folders. How do I find out which ones I have left to convert and put the rest of the songs onto itunes for her please? Or are they on the itunes still as they showed up initially on itunes in the list to be converted.
    Thank you!

    You could convert them all again and then dedupe, or use a Windows search to reveal all the WMA files and then try to work out which still need to be converted. If you're lucky iTunes would have processed the imports in alphabetical path order so it would just be a matter of working out where it had got up to...

  • Problem with import files from windows media player into iTunes

    When I have tried to import my .wav lossless files created under windows media player into iTunes I use File, add folder to library but when the action is completed I get all of the files under the heading 'unknown album' with 'unknown artist'.
    Does anyone know that I need to do in order to include the artist and album ?
    Many thanks,
    John.

    You'll first need to add the MP3s to your iTunes library since the iPod is not compatible with Windows Media Player. You can use, for example, the File > Add to Library menu to do this.

  • Moving music files from windows media player to itunes

    when I first got my ipod, only half of my music files moved from windows media player into itunes. Is there anyway I can import the rest of the music from windows media player into Itunes? I have tried using the import function and add file or folder to library and they do not seem to work!

    iTunes will not accept Window Media player tracks that are protected. If you imported them off your own CDs, did you check the option to apply protection to them? If so, your only choice is to re-rip those CDs.

    Within iTunes use the add folder to library option available on file menu. Select the folder to add. iTunes will add the file to iTunes library. Depending on settings, iTunes may copy the file to iTUnes folder location.

  • Moving music from Windows Media Player to iTunes

    Hi
    Apologies if this is repeating what others have asked many times in the past - I know what these forums can get like sometimes! I have had a look around though and couldn't find a definitive answer, so...
    I have to date put all my music in Windows Media player on my PC. I am now going to buy an ipod so, obviously, I need my music in iTunes.
    Is it simply a case of copying the folders from 'My Music' into the iTunes version of 'My Music'? If so, where is the iTunes version of 'My Music'..?!
    Thanks
    Percy

    FIrst before I say anything else, As of now its only...6:30am here on the east coast USA (Which means its 3AM in California) so the event has not taken place yet. Apple is very secritive about what there doing, and anything you hear is rumor til apple comes out, says what there doing/announcing and makes it fact.
    Now that said, there has been RUMORS (So far) apple MIGHT release some type of new nano and/or video ipod along with an announcement they have made deals with hollywood to start selling movies on there US store.
    I just wanted to give you a heads up just incase you was buying today and the rumors turned out to be true. I would of utterly hated for you me or anyone to buy an ipod today, and then later in the afternoon, or tommorrow apple release a new ipod. If that happend to me... I would be Cursing up a storm (Southern slang meaning I would be REALLY UPSET LOL)
    Theres alot of news about the event along with rumors that have be heard, just not confirmed by apple yet. One of them is here

  • Is there an easier way to convert files from Windows Media Player to iTunes

    I have many gb's of music in my Windows Media Player...now that I have an ipod I want to move the music over. Do I really have to do this one file at a time or is there away to move over whole albums at once? Is there a way to transfer the entire library at once? Do I have to reload ALL of those CD's? PLEASE HELP !!!!

    Maybe you can help me out too. I have copied over 250 gigs of music in WAV loss less files to windows media player. On media player I see the artist, album etc. However, when I add the file, either as the song or whole album only the track number and song title copy to the itunes. How do I get all the other information like genre, album title, artist. If I convert to applelossless I still do not get anything and when I search AppleSTore for album art nothing happens. Please help.

  • Is there a way to move files from Windows Media player to Itunes?

    I have a lot of files in windows media player from Walmart.com. Is there any way to move these into my itunes library to sync onto the Nano?

    Do you know what format the video is in and if its protected? most likely you will need to convert it, there quite a few converters out there. (i can't remember any)

  • Windows Media Player to iTunes

    I have several media files on Windows Media Player, and I want to load them onto my iPod. Can that be done, and if so, how? I tried a direct transfer from my computer hard drive to the iPod, but none of the music showed up on the iPod. This lead me to think it is not possible. Is that so?

    Make itunes your default audio player open itunes then on the taskbar click on start then click on search when the
    window opens click on pictures, music, or video then tick the box for music then click search when all your music files are found double click on anyone that as an itunes logo on it and it will send it to your itunes library and start playing it just keep on repeating good luck

  • Converted songs from Windows Media Player to itunes show up in the library but will not play

    I just installed itunes for the purpose of converting my Windows Media Player library to itunes.  I went through the install and added the music folder.  itunes went through the conversion process overnight and all of my songs appear in the music library.  However some songs will play properly and if you open them in windows explorer they are in a folder called my music/downloads and are mpeg files.  Other songs that are listed in the music library and appear to have been converted will not play.  When you click on these songs that won't play it appears to be playing in the progress bar on top, but no sound comes out and the EQ visualizer shows nothing.  When you open these songs in Windows explorer they are located in a folder: my music\i tunes\itunes media\music and they are a .AAC audio file type. What went wromg in this conversion process? Why is itunes putting these files in two different locations?  Why will these files not fully convert and play?

    This is also what I suspected but why would the songs go through conversion, show up in the library, and then not play?  Apple support even says "itunes for Windows cannot import or play WMA files that are protectd."  Yet the imported song is sitting in the library and when you play it the song is listed and the diamond advances - but no sound.
    Also, any tips on how to see if a WMA file is protected by DRM?
    Thank you for your response.
