What is copy files to iTunes music folder when adding music to library?

If you copy files to iTunes Library, you will have 2 copies of the file on your computer. iTunes can play files that are not in the iTunes Library. It makes a link to them, like an alias. For example, if you download a song, it might be in your downloads folder. If you let iTunes copy it to the iTunes Library, it will be in your downloads folder and your iTunes Library. If you delete the song from the downloads folder, it will still be in your iTunes Library, and iTunes can still play it. If you don't copy it to your iTunes Library, and delete it from the downloads folder, iTunes will not be able to play it. You should set up iTunes so that it takes care of the files the way you wish. Don't try to arrange the files yourself by dragging them or copying them yourself into the iTunes Library folder. If you do that you might not see them in iTunes because the iTunes database has not been updated by iTunes. This is also true if you move files between the iTunes album or artist folders. Let iTunes do it and it will maintain the database and you can play all your music.

How do you Import mp3 cds to iTunes?

Media can be imported into iTunes from several sources: Internet media such as MP3 and MP4 can be opened by iTunes. Audio CD media and be played and imported by iTunes. Media files on the computer can be imported or played by iTunes. iTunes can import the files into the iTunes Library in several formats including MP3 and AIF. More types of media can be imported by downloading conversion tools from the Internet. iTunes can copy files into the iTunes Library or LINK to files elsewhere on the hard drive or network. Media can be imported into iTunes either by using the 'File-Add to Library' command or if you have a Mac, dragging files or folders of files onto the iTunes icon in the dock. CD media can be imported into iTunes by selecting in Preferences - General - "When you insert a CD" and selecting what you want iTunes to do. iTunes can just play the CD or add the songs to the iTunes Library. It is good to be connected to the Internet if you import the media into iTunes, so iTunes can get the titles and cover art automatically.


How do you put a whole folder of itunes music on a usb?

Sadly, iTunes files cannot be transferred from computer to computer or onto a USB flash drive. The reason why is the files are "locked". This means that the files cannot be opened on any other computer that isn't authorized by the iTunes account holder.


How do you play flac files with iTunes?

Yes, but its very very limited. You need the "Xiph components for QuickTime", but its not really worth doing. Because that will only let you play flac files that are in an 'ogg container' rather than in a 'native flac'. What does that mean in English? Ogg, like some other file formats (mp4 in particular) is a 'container'. You can put other file types into this container (vorbis is easily the most common, to the point where when most people say 'ogg files' they really mean 'vorbis files in an ogg container'). So, if you want flac files to work with iTunes, the file must be 'blah blah.ogg' and not 'blah blah.flac'. You cant just change the filename to get it to work either, and as 99.9% of the flac's I've ever seen are 'native flac' its kind of pointless to even bother.
