iTunes makes it really easy to take any CDs that you already have and put them into your iTunes library. Just follow these steps:
- Open iTunes.
- Place the CD into your optical drive (the one that a CD/DVD fits into).
- If iTunes doesn’t automatically change to show all the songs on the CD, click on the Library Selector in the top left of the window (it most likely says Music right now) and select the title of the CD.
- Now click the Import CD button that is toward the top right of the window.
- Click OK on the Import Setting window that will pop up.
- Now iTunes will begin importing your CD. You can watch its progress in the current window you are in or you can go do something else in iTunes and watch the progress in the top window.
- Once it is done importing the CD you can take the CD out of the optical drive.
Congratulations! You now imported a CD into your iTunes Library. You can do what ever you want with this music now: put it into a playlist, burn it to a CD, sync it to your iPod, etc…
