You can import songs from CDs into your music library. Once you import songs, you can listen to them without having the original CD in the disc drive.
The default encoding format is AAC. To change formats, see Change import settings.
1.In the Music app on your Mac, choose Music > Settings, then click General.
2.Click the “When a CD is inserted” pop-up menu, then choose an option:
•Show CD: Music opens the CD but doesn’t play or import it.
•Play CD: Music begins playing the CD without importing it.
•Import CD: Music automatically imports the CD.
•Import CD and Eject: Music imports the CD, then ejects it. This is a good option if you plan to import a lot of CDs.
Music imports most songs in a few minutes, and an entire CD in about 10 minutes.
1.In the Music app on your Mac, insert an audio CD into your computer’s CD or DVD drive, or into an external drive that’s connected to your computer.
If the information for the CD isn’t displayed, select the CD below Devices in the sidebar.
2.Choose what you want to do in the window that appears:
•Import all songs on the CD: Click Yes. Music starts importing the CD. When it’s finished, go to step 6.
•Prevent certain songs from being imported: Click No and go to step 3.
In the Music app on your Mac, check the following if Music doesn’t recognize audio CDs or if you’re having trouble importing songs:
•If error correction is turned on, it can take longer to import CDs. Choose Music > Settings, click Files, then click Import Settings. If the “Use error correction when reading Audio CDs” checkbox isn’t selected, select it. If it’s already selected, deselect it.
•If you have more than one CD or DVD drive, try using Music with each drive.
•If it’s taking a long time to import a song (more than 10 minutes) from an audio CD, the CD may be dirty or scratched. Try cleaning the CD with a soft, lint-free cloth, then importing the songs again.
If you hear popping or clicking noises when you play songs imported from a CD, your disc drive may not have read the CD correctly. Try turning on error correction and then importing those songs again.
1.In the Music app on your Mac, choose Music > Settings, then click Files.
2.Click Import Settings, then select “Use error correction when reading Audio CDs.”
3.Insert the CD and import the songs again.
4.To prevent duplicate items from appearing in your library, delete any songs you imported before.
