What does it mean if an item is invisible?

I am trying to move an itunes song to a thumb drive but it keeps saying "The item “One Direction - What Makes You Beautiful - 45sec-12-8C@144BPM-CMSMix.mp3” can’t be replaced because it’s invisible." What does this mean please help. How do I fix this?

All you have to do is go to iTunes click on the FILE menu and click on the link that says "Create a New Version" and slide down to "Create MP3". In a few seconds it will show up in iTunes library. Then click and slide the mp3 file to the desktop or anywhere you want to.


Under the "preference" menu in iTunes you can slide down to the "Import Settings" and choose all the options that can create a low, medium or high quality mp3 file of your choosing. Low is good for emailing a song to someone. High settings are good for your iTunes library.

First try coping the song to your desktop.

Then make a new folder on your thumbdrive, and copy the file from your desktop to the new folder.


If that doesn't work, follow these steps to show hidden files:

Then delete the exsisting copy on your thumb drive.

After, undo the above steps then copy from iTunes to your desktop first, then from the desktop onto the flash drive.
