Can't add music to iTunes 11.0.1

For some reason I can'd imoprt MP3's I downloaded from another website into Tunes. I have tried Drag and Drop as well as 'File > Add to Library' and nothing happens. Any ideas?


I am also using iTunes Match, have tried turning it off and on again, retsarting, still nothing.

The headers on the problem tracks may be corrupted or nonstandard. This can happen with some MP3 conversion or import utilities, and iTunes is very picky about headers. If you search the web for "mp3 repair" you'll find a number of repair tools. Here is one utility I've seen mentioned:


Mp3 Validator Mac version


I haven't tried it myself so I can't attest to how well (or indeed if) it works, but it'd be worth a try.


Hope this helps.
