A friend mailed me a flash drive with music on it from his pc...  mostly wma files.  How can I add these to my itunes library?

My friend created a BIG music file on his pc then saved it to a flash drive.  It is mostly wma files..  how can I add this to itunes library?

Install Flip4Mac's WM Components (from their download page), required to play WMA in QuickTime, the Finder's preview column, and many other applications -- but not iTunes!
Open your WMA file in QuickTime Player (Pro version required), then save as reference movie.
Drag the newly created .mov file onto iTunes. Now you can play it as you would any other song.
Some metadata is copied to the QuickTime file, and you can edit/add tags in iTunes. Remember to keep the original WMA files in place, as your reference .mov files still point to them. If you don't mind one more conversion step, you can then liberate your WMAs within iTunes. Select your WMA songs in iTunes, go to the Advanced Menu, click Convert selection to MP3/AAC, then enjoy your music on the iPod.

  • Hello - I'm getting virtually bombarded with pop-up ads from some entity called ConvertFilesForFree. How can I block these?

    Hello: every time I have been on the internet lately, I have been getting bombarded with pop-ups from a couple of sites, but most of them come from ConvertFilesForFree, prompting me to connect to their site for some such reason. I'm not certain whether or not this site is legitimate in the first place (I'm concerned that by clicking on the link I'll infect my computer), but further, I simply hate these things and want them to go away. I have tried to "block" the site by right clicking on the page and going to the "permissions" settings, this has not worked. I have tried downloading and running the ADWCLEANER program, again, no help.
    WTF is this site, how can I rid myself from it? I also get a few others, some advertising for car insurance, another having something to do with some kind of "wizard" game - I hate them all!!! Help, please.
    Thanks, Alex

  • I seem to get a variety of font sizes with different websites, usually very small compared to IE. How can I enlarge these?

    Facebook's page is oversized and bleeding off the page. Gmail is a small font, shop.com/pamguttman is a very small font. I've looked at screen resolution but that doesn't change anything.

    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

    You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

  • How to connect external storage devices (flash drive) with it

    hello dear. I am using this hp webOS-3.0.5 device for last 8 months. It is really a wonderful device to have. But I have some queries regarding it's usage. First can we attach any usb device(external storage devices (flash drive) with it? Second is there any other way to use internet on it without wi-fi connection? Thanks
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    I'm afraid the answer is No to both questions.  
    External storage can be acheived easily using the free 50GB Box.com account included with each touchpad.  This does rely on a good wifi source however, which leads to your other question.
    The wifi touchpad needs a wifi signal to go online.  Modern cellphones can act as "wifi hotspots" and can translate a cellular data connection to wifi.  (I do this with my Pre3 and a free program called "FreeTether", a homebrew app).

  • Can I save a project on a flash drive with the videos that are in the project and edit on any computer with premiere pro?

    I am trying to edit a home and school and need to edit all the time. Can i save my project file on my flash drive with all the videos and use the flash drive for editing on any computer?

    IF all computers are on the exact same build of PrPro. Understand of course that if everything of the project is on one flashdrive, performance in playback & etc. with much in the way of effects or tons of cuts is going to be ... s l o w . But perhaps doable on say a school project, which probably doesn't have the total assets of say a season-length tv sitcom.

  • I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all

    I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all. How come?

    If you're exporting a project then you'll only get the images in that project. Also if any of the masters are referenced then you won't get those masters unless you check Consolidate masters into exported library
    It might be best if you started from the beginning and explained what it is your are trying to do and how you're going about doing it. Also a description of you're hardware/software setup would be helpful.

    Thanks Guys, Any ideas about a tablet that would work the best, Kindle, Nook???
    Neither for school work, IMHO.  Get them laptops instead.  They will be much better off writing papers and doing serious study work (assuming their school actually makes them work these days).  Yeah, they cost more, but kids are expensive.... just like wives! 

  • Can I use a flash drive with my iPad?  If yes, what kind?

    Can I use a flash drive with my iPad?  If yes, what kind?

    Actually, and to clarify, the Lightning to sd card camera reader does not have a usb port in any shape.
    The Lightning to usb camera adapter is the one that has the USB port. (its an entirely different product)
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD821ZM/A/lightning-to-usb-camera-adapter?fnod e=3a
    The old 30 pin Camera connection kit, had a USB port adapter as well as the sd card reader in the same package.
    In any case, if the iPad you bought is an iPad 4, then no you{ll need to decide if you want an Sd card reader or the actual USB port.
    If its an iPad 2 then the camera connection kit will offer the usb port in the box.
    However as was already mentioned, and with either product you can only transfer pictures in a very specific format.

  • I'm able to transfer iPhotos from Mac to MacPro but data I've added to photos does not transfer. What am I missing? Tried using Thunderbolt, AirDrop, Flash drive with no success.

    I'm able to transfer iPhotos from Mac to MacPro but data I've added to photos does not transfer. What am I missing? Tried using Thunderbolt, AirDrop, Flash drive with no success. Do I have to use iCloud for 800 vacation photos or re-enter all the data after transfer? 

    There is no support for mirroring or syncing iPhoto libraries or Aperture libraries.  You can however export partial Aperture libraries on one mac and merge them into other libraries on a second Mac.
    To transfer your edited photos open your photolibrary in Aperture and and collect the edited photos in an album. Then select the album and use the command "File export > Album as new library". This will export all edited photos as a new Aperture library. Copy this library to your other Mac and import it with "File < Import > Library to your other photolibrary on that computer (assuming you are having the same Aperture version on both macs). When merging the new library into your Aperture library, opt to keep the newer versions from the imported library.  iPhoto 9.5.1 will be able to open these merged Aperture 3.5.1 libraries.

  • Flash drive with J4680

    Am I able to scan and save to a flash drive on a Office Jet J4680?  If so, please tell me how to.  I am just not able to figure this out

    Hello confused,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    The printer does not have a flash driver port or card readers so to answer your question, No you can not save a scan to a flash drive on this printer. 
    If you are looking for a printer that has this option, I suggest you look into the Officejet 8600 series.
    Thank you for your time.

  • Flash drive new version 11. ask for outside source to store files on pc.

    new version of flash drive adobe 11 ask for outside source. if they could file on my computer. new version came with mac a fee securty . i have a virus protection allredy . my knowlege u can not run to virus program.

    Re: McAfee - you're right. Two A/V programs is bad. Uninstall McAffee.
    Re: Storage. In order to view Flash content (videos or games), you NEED to allow a small amount of data to be stored in your temp folder, to prevent the content from constantly stopping and restarting. As always, if you have ANY reason to be suspicious of a site you're visiting, then you have reason the be suspicious of what it may want to store on your system but for the most part, Flash data is video "buffering" content and nothing more.
