Is it possible to repair imported tracks that skip?

My old iMac had a faulty CD drive, so when I imported my CD's, some of them skip in one or two songs. I now have a new iMac and I want to repair the tracks that have skips. Is there software that will do this for me? Can I repair them manually from the original CD that I still have? What is the best way to do this?

It would be best to just re-import the tracks from the original CD. I can't say that there isn't a way to repair the tracks, but you'll probably get the best results (and it's almost certain to be easier) if you just import the CD again.
Regards.

  • Is it possible to re-import tracks to their corresponding playlists?

    as opposed to just "the Library"?
    There has got to be a reason for exporting and importing playlist .xml files.
    Why is everyone telling me that iTunes is incapable of re-directing tracks to their corresponding playlists? It makes no sense to have a playlist backup if it cannot really be used!

    1) Are what I mentioned before of any use? (smart playlists, special tags, or scripts)
    Yes - nearly all my playlists are smart playlists based on the Grouping field, e.g.:
    "Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
    "Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
    Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
    etc.
    I use this method to manage the content of our family's four iPods, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their iPod. Because the grouping field is stored in file tags (for audio files anyway) playlist membership is automatically preserved when I delete from iTunes, reorganise & re-import.

  • Where is the download again info on itunes? i have tracks that skip

    how do you find the place to download free a track that is messed up on the itunes download?

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks from your iTunes library, close and then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • Free programs that work with itunes to scan/fix music for tracks that skip

    Are there any programs (preferably free) that can scan an entire itunes library for corrupt songs & fix on albums? like songs that skip that came from a scratched CD. With the amount of songs I have now, it would be impossible to go through them all & listen for skipping tracks. I have found & learned about programs or scripts that can scan a whole library for missing album artwork, so I wondered if threre was anything for skipping songs.

  • Repair imported tracks from CD.

    I heard there was a way to repair songs that were imported in iTunes off of a scratched CD. Can someone please help me find this feature? I have a whole bunch that use this.

    what i have done in the past is kept the songs on my library and reimported the songs and selected the replace exsisting songs and that usualy took care of the problem, however if this doesnt work, then try this (preferences/Advanced/I0mporting/click the error correction box at the very bottom of the window)

  • Is it possible to record a track that controls other tracks?

    Hello, I'm new to the forum but before I ask my question I did search the Logic manual and the discussion forum using keywords and phrases and I'm still not able to come up with a definite answer.
    Back in the 80s I had a MIDI sequencer program (Dr. Ts) that allowed me to have several MIDI sequence tracks. Each of these tracks could/was assigned either a letter or number and I could record a new track and using the computer keyboard I could start or stop any or all of the sequences/tracks in real time allowing me to record my song. In other words my new track controlled the other tracks. I would love to be able to do this in Logic using my sequences and audio loops. Can someone tell me how this can be done? Thanks

    You can sort of do this with touch tracks in the environment (this let's you assign MIDI regions to your keyboard and trigger them from each key) but it's not exactly the same.
    Ableton Live has a more modern implementation of this, where you can trigger clips and scenes from the keyboard and arrange them like you want.

  • Why do some of imported tracks start skipping

    OK - here's the scenario:
    I'm using iTunes 7.0.2 to import a cd as acc (default settings). In this particular example I'm importing 'For The Love Of House' vol.2 disk 1. The whole cd is ripped with no issues. I can listen to it in iTunes from begining to end - no problem. At this point, I copy over the album to my iPod Nano (8gb). Here's the really strange part! A number of tracks (e.g. track 2, 6 and always the sames ones, no matter how may times I try from scratch) will not play on my iPod. First time they'll play for about 10 seconds then skip to the next track, second time the tracks will be skipped entirely. Now here is the really strange part and hence the reason I posted this under iTunes. Those same tracks (the copies stored on my pc within iTunes) will now not play in iTunes!! I can only assume the files most get modified/corrupted at the point they're transfered over to my Nano. I'd appreciate any thoughts/answers!!

    How much RAM do you have?  Since it is new I am assuming 4?

  • Music imported from CD skips on Computer and IPod

    After I have imported an album into iTunes, some of the songs skip while playing. It's as if it has a bad case of hiccups.
    I have tried re-synching with the iPod; restoring the iPod to defaults; deleting iTunes and reloading.
    The CD does not have any skips.
    Any suggestions??

    I had problems importing audio CDs into iTunes. The imported tracks would skip during playback. To rule out faulty playback by iTunes, I used Windows Media player to playback the imported files (MP3, AIFF). The same skipping was there also. This meant the problem was in the way iTunes imported the tracks.
    To rule out a problem with the CD/DVD ROM drive or CD media, I experimented with importing the audio CD tracks using Windows Media Player (creating WMA files). I found no skipping, no glitches during playback.
    I read a few threads online that pointed towards system configuration, system load, and quality of the optical drive. But why would Windows Media Player work and iTunes not work on the same system? The problem still seemed to be with iTunes, not with my system.
    Making matters worse, the problem was elusive because the skipping and glitches were slightly different from trial to trial, but the file size would be exactly the same each time. Also, the first track imported during a session seemed to have more errors than subsequent tracks. This left me suspicious of all imported tracks.
    I disabled "Play songs while importing or converting" but that alone did not make a difference.
    Finally I found something that worked. When I originally configured iTunes for CD importing, I selected "Use error correction" even though I had not experienced any prior problems. I had selected it as a precautionary measure. When I finally disabled error correction, the skipping went away. Just to check, I re-enabled error correction and the problem returned.
    Edit > Preferences > Advanced Tab > Importing Tab
    Option "Play songs while importing or converting"
    Option "Use error correction when reading Audio CDs"
    If the problem reoccurs, I will replace my CD/DVD ROM drive. One user said that worked.
    I still have more testing to do. The first track imports fine. I still have to test importing an entire CD and listening for errors. But I am fairly confident that the problem is fixed.

  • I am learning Italian using CD in iTunes. Is it possible to play a track at a slower speed so that I can catch what is being said?

    I am learning Italian using a CD in iTunes. Is it possible to play a track at a slower speed to hear better what is being said?

    Right, I understand those fundamentals.  We outsource a lot of out view creation and do not have permission to create views for Business reasons; these are beyond my control.  However, I can see the source code to many Views.  We have also
    been told that we should not use tables in our queries.  Therefore, I need to use existing Views.  Specifically, I would like to add an additional value to an IN() constraint.  This would change the constraint as showed below: 
    IN('A', 'B', 'C') ---> IN('A',
    'B', 'C', 'L')
    I am wondering if this change can be made when the view runs and only for this one report, with the change being made from the report.  This would be very easy if the constraint was removing a value.  Obviously I could change the constraint from
    IN('A', 'B', 'C') to IN('A','B') very easily with out modifying the View. This would be done by writing a query against the view and in the WHERE clause adding the new IN('A', 'B') statement.  However, I want to do the opposite and add a value...

  • Is it possible to import Tracking Codes with Cisco WebEx Meetings Server 2.5?

    Is it possible to import Tracking Codes with Cisco WebEx Meetings Server 2.5?

    Hi,
    In documentation, you can find only what is possible and supported in the product. We don't document what is not supported. 
    At this time, there is no feature request submitted for this as I assume no one requested such a feature. If your customer really needs this feature, I advise you to reach out to your/their Cisco Account Manager, explain the feature you would like to see, so they can reach out to Product Management and see if this could be built in the next product version.
    I hope this helps.

  • Is it possible to make is so that, immediately after I import a new clip into FCP, the file is automatically selected in the Event Library? (Similar to how After Effects and Premiere work).

    Is it possible to make is so that, immediately after I import a new clip into FCPX, the file is automatically selected in the Event Library? (Similar to how After Effects and Premiere work). Right now, after I import a new file, I have to then go searching for it amid all the other files in my project. It would be extremely helpful if the file I just imported was already highlighted and selected after import, making it instantly "locatable" and ready to go.

    in a perfect world, you do know the recording date, and you simply scroll to that date.
    in a very perfect world, all your other imports are already tagged, so just have to create a smart list 'unrated' ...
    (I know those messy Events… a friend of mine constantly ignores my advice to check the time/date on his camera; on every battery swap, the cam creates a very erratic timestamp ... his actual recordings are listed as made in "2004" or in "2020" .... )

  • I recently bought a new laptop, installed iTunes and imported my library during a sync with my iPhone. Now I've noticed that any tracks that were ripped into my library from a CD won't play on my iPhone. They're visible but with a red circle next to them.

    Hi, BartleyBauer. 
    If the media that you are attempting to sync plays in iTunes, try removing the preference to sync music as this remove the media from the device.  Once this is done, try syncing the media again.

  • My canon 100d dropped in water for 3 seconds is it possible to repair it?

    My canon 100d dropped in water for 3 seconds is it possible to repair it?

    If dropped in salt water, it's a goner for certain. Contact your insurance company.
    If dropped in fresh water, it might still work. But it depends upon how much moisture got inside and a bit of luck. 
    1. Remove the battery. Important. Do this first. You want to remove power sources in hopes of preventing electronics from shorting out.
    2. Turn off camera. Remove the memory card.
    3. Remove the lens (optional, see below).
    4. Leave open battery compartment and memory card compartment doors to help air out inside.
    5. Pop up the flash and leave it standing open.
    6. Remove the eyecup and set it aside temporarily.
    (Note do not remove lens or open up this way if you sit the camera in rice. You do not want rice dust getting inside!)
    Let sit for some days to dry. Do not put the battery back in and turn the camera on until you are certain it's completely dry.
    If the lens got soaked too, then it's going to be harder to get dry inside and likely ruined. Try leaving the caps off and standing it on end to dry. But it's still likely to end up with stuff dried onto the optics inside, at best. At worst, it will develop fungus or mildew inside. This can happen inside the camera, too.
    Most repairers won't even look at a camera that's been dunked in water. They too often simply aren't worth trying to repair. To be done right would require complete disassembly, cleaning and relubrication.
    But it costs little or nothing to try dyring it yourself.... after you get it completely dry, if it's still working okay it might be possible to have the focus screen and mirror cleaned, if that's needed. Don't try to clean these yourself. Both are very easily damaged by the wrong cleaning solutions or incorrect procedures.
    I've never had a camera get dunked in water... but have gotten caught in heavy rain with cameras, lenses and flashes... I followed the above procedures (no rice, just warm air from a hair dryer) and everything survived and continued to work fine after a few days drying out. There was no sign of water inside the cameras or lenses, though.

  • Can't import tracks from an older version of iTunes

    Since my rMBP has no optical drive I've found a practical use for my old G3 iMac which is for ripping CDs.
    The G3 of course is only running iTunes 7.6 (the newest version available for G3 Macs) whereas my MBP is running the latest version.
    I've shared the iTunes Library on the G3 and can access it on my MBP, and can even play tracks, but there is no Import button at the bottom of the window so I can't import the ripped tracks into my MBP iTunes. This works fine if I use my wife's MBP (my old one) which is also running the latest version of iTunes.
    Have I missed a setting on the G3, or is this a limitation due to the big difference in iTunes versions?
    I'm ripping to Apple Lossless if that matters.

    Ah, thanks, that will be it.
    Guess that means I can't use my G3 for doing this. Oh well, not to worry.
