Re: iTunes question
 

I don't understand what's happening with yours ulala.... there shouldn't be any settings you need to do.

Gekko basically got that part right about iTunes renaming MP3's so they are nice and neat with "Keep iTunes music folder organized."

But if you buy songs legally off of iTunes Music Store, it should automatically burn the CD's and do everything. Because it's legal, iTunes should recognize it. I'd say it's probably the CD player you're trying to play it on.

I've been burning songs off of iTunes music store for a long time.

And to address the other question, all my iTunes song files are ALL organized and have good filenames.

Re: iTunes question
 

What do you mean when you say the disc doesn't work? What are you using to play it? Some machines don't play CD-R.

Maybe you should just get a Mac and save yourself the trouble.

iTunes is really annoying me. It doesn't register the first (second of?) action when I try to change a name or something.

Let's say I click twice on a song so I can copy the name, I have to hit ctrl C TWICE before it really copies.

When I want to change a name and start typing M2M, 2M shows up. :mad:

Re: iTunes question
 

That's usually part of the predictive text input. With libraries with more than one song from an artist, it tries to help you type in the iD3 so you dont have to type the whole artists name.

Re: iTunes question
 

Nono that's not it. It just doesn't register my inputs.

What you mean is another annoying feature. Some dork once typed an artist as "3 doors down". When I try to change it to "3 Doors Down", it automaticly suggests "3 doors down" again. What I do is leave the 3 out, first typing Doors Down, then adding the 3 in front of it. That works, unless I also have an artist named "donovan", then I lose the capital D again. :( :mad:

But that's not the problem I mean. :p It's a bug or something. Or the inability to deal with a folder with more than 1000 MP3s in it.
(I try to order them in artist folders, but I can't just place the MP3s into a new folder, because then iTunes loses the play count [a function that I love:D], or I have to manually find all the songs for it...)

my car cdplayer plays other cd-r's, but not the one i burnt on itunes.

Re: iTunes question
 

Do you have the latest version of iTunes?

Re: iTunes question
 

iTunes is pure evil. I once used it to share music at college and how it "organized" my songs pissed the hell out of me. I'm still trying to get them back how they were almost 2 years later.

Re: iTunes question
 

yea.

Re: iTunes question
 

An unchanged playlist that contains songs purchased from the iTunes Music Store can be burned no more than seven times.

Some third-party CD-RW drives may not work with iTunes. To see if iTunes works with a drive, from the Edit menu, choose Preferences, then click the Burning tab. If your drive is listed, it should work with iTunes. If you don't see your device listed in the Burning pane of iTunes preferences and you're sure that it's a supported drive, the correct drivers may not be installed. To install the appropriate drivers, reinstall iTunes.

Do you have Windows XP or 2000 Service Pack 2?

Re: iTunes question
 

I burned a 3 Doors Down cd the other day, and the majority of the songs came off of iTunes. So yours is just messed up. heheh

If you've tried the troubleshooting steps above, and you're still having problems, you can run diagnostics within iTunes for Windows to get more detailed information on your configuration. To do this:

Open iTunes on your Windows PC.
Choose Run CD Diagnostics... from the Help menu.
Put an audio CD in each one of your optical drives that you want to test.
Click OK.
The results appear in a new Window. The results may contain additional troubleshooting suggestions for you to try.
