Hi Neil,
Are you using iTunes 8.0.1?
Try - Quit iTunes.
Then move com.apple.iTunes.plist and com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist
from your Home Library/Preferences folder onto the desktop.
Restart iTunes & see if you can import a CD without any problems.
You will probably get the iTunes Assistant dialogue box as you start
iTunes.
You might find you have to set your Import Preferences again - iTunes
> Preferences > General - "When you insert a CD:" - Import Settings.
If there isn't a problem anymore, trash the plist files on your desktop.
Cheers,
Ronni

Hi all,
(Itunes 8, Leopard 10.5.5, 24" 2.4 GHz iMac, 4GB RAM)
Anybody else getting this problem:
- insert CD
- queries Gracenotes CDDB correctly & gets track info
- asks me if I want to import CD to iTunes (as per my prefs)
- I hit yes button
OK to this point, consistent and as it should be, but:
- sometimes iTunes goes ahead and imports OK
- other times the CD just unmounts - ie it doesn't mount in iTunes
and when
I check in finder it's not mounted
Now it's not a huge problem, I leave disk utility running if I'm
importing
CDs and if I check there - the disc is showing as "Audio CD" but
unmounted -
I then mount it and the iTunes dock icon bounces - switch back to
iTunes and
I again have the "do you want to import this CD into iTunes" box -
hit Yes
again and this time it imports OK.
I can't see any pattern to whether the CD imports first time or has
to be
re-mounted via disc utility & then imported.
Before my current session of re-importing my CDs it had been quite a
while
since I had done any - so I'm not sure if this problem is new to
Leopard or
iTunes 8 or either/both?
Anybody else seeing this or have any ideas?
Like I say, not a big problem - I just don't like it when it doesn't
"just
work" !!
Cheers
Neil
