CD doesn't import when I click "import"

I'm confused. What is there to import from a blank CD?

Well...not sure what's causing it, but I do understand the problem now.

I am getting the same problem - when I insert a regular audio CD of my collection to import - the computer asks whether I want to import it and then when I say yes - the Device (superdrive with the CD inside it) is no longer shown in the iTunes list or on the desktop - I had imported about 4 -5 CD's before it happened with no problems but now it happens on every one - it is like the superdrive has a problem - maybe it is too hot for multiple imports??? When I reinsert the CD (after ejecting) it now works and imports - really wierd - has anyone else experienced this and I wonder if this might be a firmware or Leopard issue??? I wonder if Apple needs to hear about this....

I'm having basically the same problem.
Whenever I insert an audio CD into my iMac, it mounts, then when I launch iTunes, the program accesses CDDB Gracenote, then for a split second the correct songs appear, then the whole thing disappears. iTunes reverts to the main music screen, the CD no longer appears in the left sidebar and *it even disappears from the Finder*. I have to use Disk Utility to eject the disc. I've tried this with a number of different audio CDs.
I'm running Leopard and iTunes 7.5.

Any ideas?

I'm also having the exact same problem.

Running iTunes 7.5 on Leopard.

I'm also having this same problem. It doesn't occur with every single import but I have noticed it at least half a dozen times so far.

This happened to me last night as well. I imported 2 cd's fine and then the last one vanished when I asked to import. Leopard needs to change a spot or two.

Happens here too. If I eject the CD using Disk Utilities and then insert it again, all is fine.

Until the next CD....

I am getting this same problem as well.

Insert audio CD, iTunes asks if I wish to import (at this point the mounted CD icon disapears from desktop), and if I choose "Yes" to importing, nothing happens. The whole device vanishes from finder windows. I need to eject the CD and reinsert to get around the problem.

I'm running Leopard on this:
Model Name: MacBook Pro 15"
Model Identifier: MacBookPro2,2
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.33 GHz

iTunes:
7.5 (19)

Really annoying problem...

It seems like the problem is perhaps with the "Get CD Track Names". At least if I have the CD mounted (the icon appears on the desktop) and select Advanced -> "Get CD Track Names" that same thing happens. Icon disappears from the desktop and the CD/DVD drive disappears from finder.

Hope this helps to narrow down the problem.

Not so. I have iTunes 7.5 and am having the same problem as I write. This started when I upgraded to Leopard.
