add music from cd

Hi there Fauxfoxfarm,

It sounds like you want to import songs from a CD into your music library. The steps below show exactly how to do that:

Import songs from CDs into your iTunes library

iTunes imports most songs in a few minutes, and an entire CD in about 10 minutes.

1. In the iTunes app  on your PC, insert an audio CD into your computer’s CD or DVD drive, or into an external drive that’s connected to your computer.

If you don’t see info for the CD, click the CD button  near the top left of the iTunes window.

2. Choose what you want to do in the window that appears:

* Import all songs on the CD: Click Yes. iTunes starts importing the CD. When it’s finished, go to step 6.

* Prevent certain songs from being imported: Click No and go to step 3.

3. When the list of songs appears in the iTunes window, click to remove the checkmark next to any songs you don’t want to import.

If you don’t see checkboxes next to the songs, choose Edit > Preferences, click General, then make sure “List view checkboxes” is selected.

If you’re not connected to the internet or if iTunes can’t find the CD’s information, songs appear as “Track 01,” “Track 02,” and so on. See If you don’t see songs in iTunes.

4. To add the selected songs to your library, click Import CD near the top right of the iTunes window.

5. Choose your import options, then click OK.

You can continue to use iTunes while songs are being imported.

To cancel importing, click Stop Importing. Any songs that iTunes imports before you cancel importing are added to your iTunes library.

6. When the songs are finished being imported, click the Eject button  near the top right of the iTunes window.

Once the songs are imported into your iTunes library, you can play them, create a playlist with them, and more.

Those steps, and steps to take if you have any issues importing, can be found in this article: Import songs from CDs into iTunes on PC - Apple Support

Take care!
