itunes and tuneup?
itunes?
ah fair enough, just play em in there and save them yeah? tbh i have never bothered ripping any of my cd’s and i need to start gettin them done cheers guys
Stick your CD in itunes and choose import cd from the bottom left hand corner 
You will then need to rename the songs if they aren’t purchased CDs…
If they are itunes will automatically name the songs…
I am amazed you didn’t know this :eek:
NB in itunes preferences, make sure your import settings are custom > 320 mp3
I would also check both the boxes about allowing itunes to organise your music for you.
cool will do, they are all bought purchased cd singles just have never got round to ripping them to my laptop, now i have gone totally digital i need to make a start on them…
There’s a nice app called Max, i use a lot:

its great, if you dont want to rip all the cd’s to itunes and have organized in the “itunes way” it’s very nice.

ive just started doing it via itunes and its quite simply fantastic lol…how easy is that, insert cd click yes and then maybe 30 seconds later my cd single is now stored on my macbook in 320kbs mp3 ready for traktor haha..love it
i know how to set it to import at 320kbs but how do you get it to set that as default anyone?
It should the settings when you change it in the preferneces>general>import settings box. You’ll need to do custom, but mine stays once I do it.
I just wish they would make NERO for Mac.
Its the best CD ripping/burning/sleeve making prog ive ever used.
Toast is shit.
yeah, always used nero for burning my cd’s on windows, purely for printing the tracklists off to stick in my cd wallet, really is a good piece of software.. ive been at this now since 4 o’clock, nearly got tru my smallest cd wallet now of all the choons i used to play in the bars in warrington.. just another 2 wallets that hole about 500 cds each in haha
im sure i have a faulty cd drive in my macbook, every now n then when i press the eject button the cd moves but seems to get stuck and i have to pop it out myself by lifting the disc up with another one, and when i put some cd;s in its very noisy whereas most are pretty quite?/ that sound faulty to anyone or is that the norm?
Still not enough reason to go PC Karlos - but I concur - even my wife burns on my PC so that she gets to use Nero, rather than her Mac. Wave Editor is brilliant.
PS - I didn’t know Nero is unavailable for Mac.
I use EAC in Wine.
