Hello kindly Techie peeps!

I have a CD of MP3s which I tried to import to iTunes on my new laptop, but which it didn't recognise. I imported them to 'My Music' instead, but am now looking to get them into iTunes. I found a way, but it will mean importing each tune individually. I've been through iTunes help and can't seem to find the answer to my problem, even in the online version, so I would appreciate your help if you have a minute (and the experience!). ;)

Thanks in advance! :T

    Open the music file and open itunes, highlight all the songs in the music file and drag into itunes

    :o Ah, I see. Thanks Grandmaster! :D

    I take it's there's no shorter way of naming them than doing it manually? *Sigh*

    If the music files are named, it should be copied over.

    Nope. Alas, computer stopped me from doing it when I made them onto the MP3 disk. I'll just have to do what I can. Thanks anyway! :beer:

    File, Add Folder ...browse to the cd drive, and OK out. Should do it.

    That doesn't. I saved it to the hard drive to save messing with the disk (I'm always losing them! :o).

    Thanks anyway! :)
