• Windows Media Player to iTunes problems.

  I downloaded iTunes last week and was able to download about 1/2 of my music library from Windows Media Player to iTunes.  When I try to download albums or songs I get the following message: "one or more of the songs you add to iTunes, including (song title) are in format WMA."  iTunes will automatically convert to AAC format so that they can be added to your iTunes library. "There are two option boxes:"convert"&"jump ".  As soon as I hit convert, I get an error message saying that there is a problem with the iTunes and Windows program it stops.  If I type 'jump', nothing happens.  Any suggestions?  I already deleted and reinstalled iTunes.

  I am also unable to download directly from a CD.  When I put the CD in I can get it appears on my screen of iTunes, but as soon as I go to import it into my iTunes library, I get the same message telling me that "iTunes has stopped working.  A problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. "So far I never got any notification of a solution.

  Hello

  I suggest you to uninstall all apple programs such as (Quick time, etc.) which are present in the system and install it and see if the problem is resolved.

• what media (zune, windows media player or itunes) Player is easier to move the music from?

  Well, I'll get an Ipod for myself and give my dad my old Zune.  It also has an mp3 player that works with Windows Media Player.

  I'm not talking to music that is bought from Itunes or Microsoft.  I'm talking about music that was taken from the CDs.

  Before you start to tear up, I would like to know what software makes it easier to move or copy music to others or if it will be difficult no matter what happens.

  Thanks and sorry if this post makes no sense complete, I was in a hurry.

  It is usually unnecessary to transfer or copy anything when you use several media players. If you stick to MP3 format and point all media on the same folder of music players (in most cases, this will be your personal music folder), then the media player should automatically pick each other ripped songs.

• How to put music from windows media player in itunes

  It is music that will not play in my itunes library. There O with! inside. The music went to windows media player. I don't use windows media player. I want my music in itunes so that I can put it in my ipod. iTunes keeps giving me update. Complicated the thing. The only good thing is the Internet radio.

  If you know where your files are stored on your machine:

  -in iTunes file / add the thread to the library, then place you where your files are stored. Click on the first, hold the SHIFT key and click the last. Click OK and let iTunes do its thing.
  Or
  If you don't know where they are stored, search for Windows using *.mp3 that the asterisk is a wild card and so the search will all throw your note. mp3´s where they are then iTunes as above.
  These files with the. next to them means iTunes has heard of them but don't know where they are stored. Simlpy you must re - add to your iTunes library.
  See you soon,.

• music files in .aiff format with encoded path names, but are not displayed in Windows Media Player or iTunes.

  I have several CDs with music files engraved on them, but when I play one any of them in WMP or iTunes, music plays, but each track does not have a name.  They appear as the track track 01, 02, etc.. The music files are in .aiff format. Now, here's the clincher, the same CD will play in my car stereo and display the name of the track.

  Are you sure that they are in the format .aiff? It looks more like an actual audio CD for me (in this case, the music files will have a .cda extension when displayed in Windows Explorer).

  If it's an audio CD, then it probably has info CD-text engraved on it. You can install the plugin WMPCDText allowing WMP read this info. Unfortunately, there doesn't exist a plugin similar to iTunes.

• Windows Media Player (and iTunes, for that matter) sometimes stops

  While playing the music playback will stop what seems like minutes sometimes. It begins finally to replay without any intervention from me. I'm running a valid copy of Windows 8 Enterprise. Has anyone seen this or nobody knows how to fix?

  It worked. I was able to isolate it from the presence of a service called PST, Motorola, likely part of its MotoCast service.

  ·         What is the format of the file you want to burn?

  ·         What is the size of the file?

  ·         You try to burn on a CD or a DVD?

  If it's a single file, then you cannot divide during the burning process. In this case, media player will say that there is not enough space in the disk and the burning process would not succeed.

  If it's a playlist or a set of several files, then he would ask for the second disk automatically when the first disc is full.

  Take a look on the bottom of the article for more information about burning a CD/DVD with media player:

• I have problems of duplication in my Windows Media Player.

  The Question I have is how do I keep from getting the song in Windows Media Player duplicate files I copy files Windows Media Player to iTunes?

  Hi John - Yes, that's why you duplicate. You must use iTunes as a library, so that records can stay where they are in 'my music '... Open iTunes for windows - click on 'file' on the toolbar in the top left and select 'Add folder to library'... you can then select the album (s) or no one tracks that you want to copy to iTunes, in this way, without repetition (and they can always be synced to an iPad or a similar device that takes care of iTunes). If you want to remove items that have already double that of WMP to avoid damaging the wmp library (make sure you remove any that are in the iTunes folder - you can check that by double-clicking on the slopes and select open file location), hope that allows you to move again, but come back if you need more help best - Ric
