iTunes makes me want to throw my pc out of the window.

Raphhashem

Is it just me or is iTunes so unbelievably dsjkfhljkhjkh.

 

Just spent 7-9 hours trying to get some albums from CDs onto my phone (yes I did say See-dee) and it keeps telling me I'm unauthorized. I've followed all the tutorials, re-installed everything, authorised and de-authorized, and still, the CD, I bought with good money doesn't want to work thanks to this amazing piece of software. 

 

Why does iTunes make people suffer through hell.

Get the music onto your computer from the disc in some other way, open them in the File Explorer or Finder, whatever OS you're using, then drag and drop the songs into your iTunes library...

 

Did iTunes not auto-load the disc when you opened it on your PC?

What are you actually doing? Can you not rip the CD using itunes or what part is going wrong? Are you trying to snyc the songs to an iPhone? If it was taking 8 hours, did you not try another piece of software to see if that worked?

iTunes sucks especially on PCs. The interface seems a bit more clunkier.

Life.exe is missing

I want to get music onto an iPhone with it's album art. Thats all. 

 

The 8hrs was me trying to get it to work after constant shouting, not itunes taking its time.

Just don't use itunes. There is a wide selection of other media players that you can use which are free.

That'll be $599 for the 16GB version.

 

OT: I've been using iTunes like forever and it seems I'm the only one liking it.

I like iTunes. The only problem I ever had was that it took like half a minute to start but it opens a lot quicker after one of the updates

PC gaming is superior to console gaming, but the gamers themselves are neither superior or inferior to one another: they're just people with varying degrees of understanding.
