You can't directly copy an audio file (from a "Red Book Audio CD) to the hard drive - you must "rip" or "extract" the track from the CD to the hard drive using one of many programs (iTunes, Audion, Sound Edit 16, SoundApp, etc.). This will give you an .aif file (some programs will also convert to .MP3 or other formats). > > In OS 10.2.2, iTunes seems to be importing the file, and saves a file > of appropriate size to disk, but all it plays is "sounds of silence" > - even though the time elapsed indicator progresses as if it were > playing an audio track. This sounds like maybe you don't have something setup right in your Sound Control preferences.
