Re: CD won't import

2017-02-04 Thread Russell Courtenay
I usually use Exact Audio Copy (PC only) as it works very hard to make an exact 
bit by bit copy of the data on the disk. Works pretty well but some disks won't 
rip on EAC either...

Re: CD won't import

Doesn't play in iTunes. But I put it in my wife's older iMac and it 
imported into her iTunes fine (if slowly) so I just copied the files across 
and I guess I'm okay. Should probably burn a new disc just on principle. 
Thanks!

I'm not sure, I’ve run across a couple CD’s like that; some error in the 
encoding or disk damage that the players skip over but iTunes can’t. I've got a 
couple others where the imported songs skip between tracks and back during 
playback. 

Does it play in iTunes? Maybe try importing it first via Audacity thence into 
iTunes? Make a disk image of it and see if THAT imports?

CD won't import

2017-02-04 Thread William Spencer
Hi there: I recently bought a used CD that plays fine in the car and through 
the stereo, but when I try to import it into iTunes, the import always fails 
about 80% of the way through. Any thoughts on why, and how to fix the problem? 
Thanks!
