Getting Your CDs and MP3s into iTunes

CDs from tapes and records will import into iTunes just like you'd expect.

MP3 files, on the other hand, come on data DVDs, so the "Import CD" button won't work. Instead, here's what you do:

Microsoft Windows:

1. Start the iTunes program.
2. Edit -> Preferences.
3. "Advanced" tab.
4. Check the box "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library."
5. Load the data DVD we made into your computer and drag the files from Windows Exlplorer into your iTunes playlist.

Mac:

1. Start the iTunes program.
2. iTunes -> Preferences...
3. "Advanced" tab.
4. Check the box "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library."
5. Load the data DVD we made into your computer and drag the files from Finder into your iTunes playlist.

That's it!

Back to home.
