Any tracks from cds ive ripped to itunes or any purchases ive made from itunes wont load onto a deck i get the red flashing corrupt file/drm protected bar across the bottom. I thought i was gonna have to covert them all to mp3s, but the read more that contradicted this. Am i right thinking that traktor should play acc files? Can anyone see what im doing wrong? cheers in advance folks!

    I believe this may be an issue with .m4a files. I had the same problem. You need to ensure that Quicktime is installed so that these files can be recognised.
    That said once I’d installed it Traktor could read the files but when I loaded and played them they didn’t sound great which is (yet) another glitch I need to fix.

    Aaah, unfortunately (for you) I live just down the road near Coventry so I may well be able to take you up on that.

    Good luck using your controller. I’m still getting to grips with mine. Sometimes I’m a bit scared of it but then something happens and it all comes together and I can’t wait to get on it again.

    All the best.

    These were the most freaky hours of my life …

    You could convert the files to .MP3 files, that would also do the trick?

    Just right click on the song in itunes and select create an mp3 version, find the mp3 file in the same location as original and use it, it will work and does not lose quality.

    Update! I never really got on with the traktor s4 set up, It seemed to take the fun out of it for me, its amazing what it can do, but i just found it became a ball ache setting up the laptop when i fancied mixin a few tunes. When it was set up the s4 was fun but keep lookin at the laptop wasnt for me. So the s4 is gone and ive just bout me an xdj-aero. I love it!! does everything i need with ease, and ive been able to ditch my old mixer (DDM4000 if anyones interested! 😉 and plug my 1210s into the aero much neater set up!!!
