Importing iTunes .Wav Library

(1/2) > >>

RonH:
Hi, I am currently using iTunes on my MAC for my music management and playback with over 1,600 albums / 24,000 songs.  My library is strictly .wav. I have tried to import from the iTunes folder, the .ITL file and .XML file without success.

I hope that MC will be able to read my iTunes .ITL and .XML files correctly including the album artwork. Are there any specific instructions on how to do this successfully?

Thanks!

Ron

Hi Erviv

Thank you so much for your response.  Before I posted I read all the material on yabb and the internet as you suggested.   None of this leads me to a successful import from iTunes.  There does not seem to be a step by step set of instructions that I can find.  Meaning do I point to the .itl, .xml, iTunes main folder or the actual music files.

Thanks!

Ron

The  link above is accurate.

What is unclear about it?

Maybe you missed the fact that you must tell iTunes to save as XML first.

You then point MC to that XML file.  It will include the media files and playlists, without disturbing them.

RonH:
Thanks Jim.  Okay, this appears to be user error.  I am testing MC before I install it on my main system and of course I forgot to connect the hard drive with music files. Once I did that MC is importing correctly with all the metadata and album art.  Very exciting!

Thank you both for your guidance and I will let you know if I run into any snags.

All the best

Ron
