The iTunes Music Store is taunting me, telling me that it's unavailable in the UK right now. Yet it lets me preview music and browse around, and it makes me even more impatient! Does anyone know the latest on the European rollout of the service? I've heard "Spring 2004", "2004" and "late 2...

Hello-I bought some music via iTunes, and I can't drag and drop them to my iPod. I can play them, but when I try to drag them to my iPod, it's just a "no" symbol.This is irritating. Isn't that the primary goal of iTunes? To buy music to play on their brother product, iPod?Thanks.TM...

I have some Bible teachings that I want to keep on my iPod, but I don't want them in iTunes.Is there a way to sync the iPod and have it get new music but not touch the spoken word mp3's (bible teachings).I just want the sync to ignore them once they are on there. Is that possible?ThanksBod...
What is the best method to keep your tracks organized on the ipod through itunes? Without the hierarchy method that is generally used on the actual computer, it seems like it could get messy.The method I've been planning on using (I just got it yesterday) is to label each playlist as:"R&B Stevi...
I experimented with adding album art in iTunes to my MP3 collection. After I was done I noticed that all the album art boosted my collection's file size by 100-something MB. I didn't get an exact number but I know there was 100 MB or more added to my collection. Now I am ripping my enti...

It should be possible to have 2 artists for one song! I have some songs that are duets or by someone who was in a band but left it.. This presents me with a problem as you can only have one artist per song. :mad:At the moment what I do is just put one person in the Artist box and on the song name I...
On the front page they show the song of the week that is free, but I clicked an album ( Jamie Cullun's Twentysomething) and one of his songs was free. Is there an easy way to see all the songs that are free?? was this an error? or do I just have to be lucky to click on the right albums? thanks...

I tried to burn a CD with the songs in iTunes, some of which are from my own CDs and others I purchased from iTunes. It seems to work, but then when I play it in a CD player, nothing but noise. Can someone help me with this? Thanks.

I am about to undertake the huge task of ripping about 700 CD's. Because this will take an obscene amount of time, I don't ever want to have to do it again. My main new portable player is an iPod mini, so don't want huge file sizes, but I am also a musician and know how to hear the di...

Can't find any decent electronic (mainly trance) albums at all on iTunes. They could probably sell so many copies of stuff by some of the more famous DJs. What the heck are they waiting for?

I am sure I must be the dumb one, but is there a way to get the tag info to transfer to the CD when you burn from iTunes? All my tags in iTunes are complete, but when I burn CDs, the song/album/artist info is not on the newly burned cd.

Does anyone know of a plug-in/work around or what have you to try to create sub-playlists in either iTunes or iPod? In other words, instead of making a "kids" playlist on my iPod, with every single wiggles/disney/sesame street song in it, and instead of making a separate playlist for each (one for...
If I import a burned CD into iTunes that was originally comprised of MP3s will the tracks be compressed even further? I think the chain would be something like: MP3>CDA>MP3
I want to listen to and manage my music library at home and at work, using my iPod to keep the 2 libraries in sync. This works fine with my PocketPC, but it seems my iPod can only have a sync relationship with one iTunes Library. What to do?
Hi,I'm running WinXP/iTunes 4.5 on a couple of machines on my network. MP3 files will stream just fine, but normal M4A files (not protected or anything) just won't stream and eventually pop up with an exclamation on the remote users machine. They're fine on my own machine.Any idea why...

Hi all,I have had some major problems with the version of itunes which came with my ipod. My PC locks up or resets itself even when I just play music in the Library.

I just sent my feedback to iTunes for a new feature I truly need, anyone else like it?I make a lot of playlists; playlists that have a certain mood, playlists for my girlfriend, etc etc. I often lose track, however, in what playlists I have put a certain song.

I have purchased several albums on iTunes in the last few months, and am wondering if the quality of purchased songs are now in lossless format.
