Vista - Itunes

10-03-2006

I'm having trouble importing music into Itunes 7.

If you try to 'add folder to library', itunes crashes after a few seconds.
This only happens if you try to add a folder with lots of music in it. If
you try to add 1 folder containing - say 20 files - it works fine. This
means that instead of importing all of your music in one go, you have to do
it by artist which is a proper pain if you have more music.

This worked fine in XP but not Vista.

Anyone else have this problem ?

I'm seeing the exact same problem with my 64Bit Vista. Does anyone know of a workaround?

I'm also having exact same problem. I know this is an old thread but does anybody have a solution yet?

This is not an iTunes support area.
