Summarize the following:
Place the audio CD that you want to rip logo side-up in your computer's CD drive. If a pop-up window appears when inserting the CD, close it before proceeding. If you're using a Mac (or a Windows computer that doesn't have a CD drive), you'll need to attach an external CD drive to your computer for this step. Click or double-click the iTunes app icon, which resembles a multicolored musical note on a white background. If you don't have iTunes installed, download and install it before proceeding. It's in the top-left corner of the iTunes window. This will take you to the CD's page. This button is in the upper-right side of the page. Clicking it prompts a pop-up window to appear. Click the "Import using" drop-down box at the top of the drop-down menu, then click the format in which you want to import the audio CD's contents. For example, you would click MP3 encoder to rip the music to MP3 files on your computer. By default, iTunes will save the CD's files as AAC files, which are playable with most audio players and actually have higher inherent quality than MP3 files. Click the "Setting" drop-down box, then click the quality with which you want to import the files. For example, if you want to import the audio files in extremely high quality, you would click the Higher Quality option in the drop-down menu. It's at the bottom of the pop-up window. Doing so prompts iTunes to begin importing your CD. Once the import is complete, iTunes will make a confirmation chime, and the progress bar will disappear from the top of the iTunes window. Click Music in the upper-left side of the iTunes page, then scroll down to the imported CD's album and click the album once to open it. It doesn't matter which song you right-click as long as the song is in the album you imported. A drop-down menu will appear. On a Mac, click once the song, then click File in the upper-left corner of the screen. This is in the drop-down menu. Doing so opens the folder location of the imported songs; at this point, you're free to move, rename, copy, or edit them as you please. If you're using a Mac, click Show in Finder here instead.
Insert the CD into your computer. Open iTunes. Click the "CD" button. Click Import CD. Select an audio format. Select an audio quality if necessary. Click OK. Wait for the songs to finish importing. Go to and open the album in your library. Right-click one of the songs. Click Show in Windows Explorer.
