I don't see the names of songs

When you insert a CD into your computer, iTunes finds the CD's information on the Internet and displays the song information. If songs appear as "Track 01," "Track 02," and so on, either you aren't connected to the Internet or iTunes can't find the CD's information.

If you're not connected to the Internet, you can import the songs and look up the CD information another time when you are connected.

iTunes looks for the names of songs and albums in the Gracenote CDDB (CD database) on the Internet.

To look up CD information in the Gracenote CDDB:

  1. Select a song or songs (hold down the Shift key to select multiple songs).
  2. Choose Advanced > Get CD Track Names.

If iTunes can't connect to the Gracenote CDDB or if it has no information about the CD, you can enter your own song information into iTunes. You can also submit the information to Gracenote so that other people can use the information.
