iTunes Question

[originalspa]

My friend recently burned me a cd he bought off iTunes but everytime I load it into mine, it doesn't recognise the artist or tracks!! (It just loads up with the number of tracks but not titles or artist!!)

Just for the record, it plays ok in the car and on my sound system but I don't know the songs enough to input them manually!!

Thanks in advance!

If he has burnt the CD without track info then you can't add it to CD now.

If you mean that when you put the CD in to your Mac/PC and it shows up in iTunes as only Track 01, Track 02 etc..., then it simply means that your version of iTunes doesn't yet have the correct information stored in it's database.

If it's a genuine commercial CD your friend burnt you for example, say, Adele 21 -
just get the track listings off Amazon and input the Song Info manually via the Get Info option from the iTunes File Menu and click on the Info Tab.

So Track 01 would be Rolling in the Deep, Track 02 would be Rumour Has It - and so on.

You can also get iTunes to retrieve the Track Names for you by selecting from the Advanced Menu > Get Track Names - but it has to be a commercially available CD,
i.e. Adele 21 - not a random compilation or playlist burnt CD.
