When I updated to the new iPhone 6 I forgot to backup all of my music. Today, I am reloading my library but only about 20 cds were recognized. Why doesn't iTune recognize most of my cds and how can I load them onto my phone.
Action: Open iTunes, load cd, cd is read then automatically ejected - ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Greetings DAVID GEISSLER,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are attempting to import all of your music from CDs into iTunes, but a lot of your CDs are automatically ejected from your iMac. In this situation, I would recommend the troubleshooting steps in the attached article to help resolve the situation.
Get help with the slot-loading SuperDrive on your Mac computer - Apple Support
Accepts discs but they don't mount or are automatically ejected
- Make sure the drive is not placed upside down. The aluminum enclosure should be facing up as shown in section 1.
- Check the disc's surface for scratches and dirt, since these things can prevent the disc from appearing on the desktop.
- Connect the MacBook Air SuperDrive directly to the computer's USB port instead a USB hub.
- Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
- Ensure your drive can read the specific type of disc being used. The System Profiler or System Information may provide additional information regarding what media your computer supports.
- OS X Snow Leopard v10.6 or earlier: Open Apple System Profiler by choosing "About this Mac" from the Apple () menu. Then, click More Info.
- OS X Lion v10.7 and later: Click the Apple () menu and then hold down the Option key. Choose System Information from the menu.
- If the disc continues to not be recognized, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store.
Have a great day,
Joe
Sorry, took a long time to respond. Just coming back from surgery. The article was helpful in that my iMac is running hot and takes time to boot up. Still doesn't see the cd and doesn't boot up iTunes when loaded. Not sure what to do next but would really like to get music back on my iPhone. -d
Unable to load old library of cps?
