iTunes won't add music, or play music that isn't already in library?

Question

Hey :o)

I have a PC running Windows XP, but I also use iTunes to play music through, and for my iPod. However, I decided to put some new CDs on the PC, copied them over just from the disk to a folder in my music (named, if anyone is interested, which i'm sure they're not 'I'm bored of all the other music on my computer'). So, I went to iTunes, tried to 'add folder' -- it acts as though it's done it, but the music isn't there. I tried adding a single file, won't do that either. If I try right click/open file/open with/iTunes, it opens, but doesn't play or add the file.

Anyone got any idea what the flippery is going on? I wanna listen to my new music! :(

Cheers chookins

Answer 1

When you insert a CD into your computer, open iTunes and click "import".

This will put the music on your computer and add it to the iTunes library.

Answer 2

does it give u any error? put the CD in and click on import or add music to ur library

Answer 3

Dont add the song to Itunes until you have it where u want it, when you move it after adding it the program will think the file is still in its old spot, and cant find it. delete the song from itunes then re-find it.

Answer 4
