I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 w/ Amarok 2.2, and whilst the setup is currently enough to make me move from Windows XP to Linux Ubuntu full-time, I cannot get my iTunes (8.0.1) Library stuff into Amarok 2.2.

My library is located by the path G:\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl (/media/Darkbook/My Documents/My Music/iTunes/iTunes Library.itl in Ubuntu) and, in the same directory, iTunes Library.xml, G:\ being my 1TB External HD.
When attempting to load each, I get the message:

"Error:
Failed: Unable to import statistics"

So... ultimately, A) what's wrong, and B) how can I get my iTunes Library into Amarok?

(Ftr, Rhythmbox doesn't load it either for some reason...)

If you only want to use the music itself, you don't have to "Import" it. Just point Amarok's collection to the right directories.

Why the statistics import doesn't work I cannot say. It might be buggy.

Hi,

same problem, I would like to import the iTunes music library to load covers because when I import music from my music folder, covers are not included..

Is there another way to get all the covers stocked insides mp3 ?

You can put the covers in the id3 tags, but Amarok doesn't read those currently. Also, it's quite a bloat to the file size.
You didn't specify which exact Amarok version you are using, btw...

Hi,

I also have problems moving from iTunes to Amarok 2. When I try to import iTunes library to Amarok there is no errors, but nothing is moved. There is just "Migrating" and white box, but nothing happens. What should happen?

I have several important playlist and a lot of cover arts in my iTunes library. My files are not mp3, they are m4a. Is it supported with cover art?

I have also rated every track with iTunes, does Amarok import that information also?

For now I have to use iTunes via wine and that is not funny.

Using iTunes is never funny :-)
But normally Amarok should import of course the tags and your statistics. Embedded covers aren't supported at all :-(
Playlist won't get imported, as far as I know.
But you didn't announce your Amarok and iTunes version, so...
