Problems with Importing MP3s Into Podcast

I'm having sudden trouble importing audio comments into my podcast. I've had no problems in the past doing this. The only difference is that the previous episodes were on my iMac G5 and this episode was produced on my MacBook Pro.
The audio comments arrive as WAV files but I use iTunes to convert them to MP3 format. This time when I tried importing them into my podcast GarageBand shows an error message that "this format is not supported by GarageBand." I find that hard to believe.
When I try to import the WAV files, they import but sound like the chipmunks -- and turn the rest of the recording into a chipmunk-like sound.
Any ideas?

You shouldn't convert them to Mp3 to begin with, use AIFF instead.

Problems with importing images into Lightroom cc

Problems with importing images into Lightroom cc
I have installed lightroom cc and having trouble imortera images from my Canon 1DX.
Lightroom starting the capture, but then nothing happens more, if I turn off the camera, I get error message photo 100-200 could not be loaded.
Now I have left lightroom 5 and where the input port works fine.
What happened to the upgrade from Lightroom 5 to lightroom cc?
The camera has the latest software.

I've now tested in various ways.
First, I have images on both memory cards in the camera.
Test1) Selects Not all of the photos in the camera at the input port bearings, it seems to work fine.
Test 2) selects all cards in the camera and then get the following, Lightroom starts inportera short but stops and nothing happens (Fig.1).
I turn the camera off after a while and get the next meddelnade (picture 1)
Which can be translated:
"The following files were not imported because they could not read (351)
Property 1-100
etc. "

Problem with importing images into time lapse

Hi
I am having problems with importing still images into a time lapse sequence in photoshop and would appreciate any suggestions!
I want to create a time lapse using a sequence of still photographs. All file names are sequentially name/numbered.
I am using the Motion workspace, and have followed all of the instructions available.
Create correct sized new document (film & video).
Create video timeline.
Set frame rate.
Choose 'create new video layer from file'.
Point to first image in the folder where the images are stored.
At this point, no matter what I have tried, I receive this error:
I have tried different sized new documents; tried jpegs and tiffs; tried different frame rates, tried different qualities and sizes of images; tried selecting the last image instead of the first (one recommendation).
If I use the 'Place' command from the file menu (and check the 'image sequence' box) instead of selecting 'Create new video layer' from the layers panel, it loads fine and I can still render the video.
It took me most of a day to discover this workaround, but every other reasonable 'how-to' that I can find says that I should be able to do it by opening files into a new video layer and it seems as though the new video layer option may give me more alternatives.
Anyone have any idea why I could be having these problems?
I have reset Photoshop, deleted the settings file, even reinstalled it. I use 64-bit on windows 7 and even installed the 32-bit to try that, but all with the same result.
Stuart

Unfortunately, yes--I've tried it that way over and over, and every other way I could think of. The files are all in one folder, and I've converted the raw files to both tiffs and jpegs. I even tried converting them to jpegs at the final pixel dimensions. Each folder that I have used only contains one type of file, and they are all part of the same sequence and sequentially numbered. I have even tried renumbering the files with numbers first, numbers last, numbers only, moving underscores. I moved the files from my external hard-drive to the desktop ... I have a lot less hair than I had only a few days ago!
I've looked at a few other tutorials that outline the same sequence of steps, and tried them over and over, and then changing one step at a time to make sure that it was not a single step that caused the problem.
The thing that is really bugging me is that it works fine if I use the different approach of using the place command instead.
Anyway, thanks for all of your time. It's going to be a lot simpler to just stick with 'place' command and I will likely do that, but I tend take things like this as a challenge. I like to know WHY it won't work for me. Sometimes it seems that there is just no logical explanation!

Help with importing mp3s into iTunes

Hi, I'm running the newest version of iTunes and having problems loading mp3s into the library in correct order. I'm not sure how the mp3s i want to import are tagged, but when i import them, iTunes arranges them automatically by song name (alphabetically) and loses the track order.
1) how do i import them keeping the same track order (in future)?
2) how can i re-order the existing ones i've imported into the library already as efficiently as possible (without going into the 'get info' option and adding track numbers for each of the separate tracks (i have several thousand like this - they are mainly live concerts)?
Many thanks for any help, its much appreciated!

You don’t say quite enough to be sure if I am being helpful or how much you know, but …
Start in the library window with browse on and select an album. (Click on the little eye, upper right of screen if you don’t see the browser).
You can then use “Get info” to inspect some of your imported tracks for that album. If you click on the info tab, you should see a field for track number. If you have a correct track number in this field, you should be able to sort by track number.
If you don’t see a Track # column to sort on, you and bring it into view by right clicking on the header row (Name, Artist, Album etc) and then checking Track number.
You can sort on any column by clicking the header.
I ripped all my CDs with Free Realplayer and imported the tracks into iTunes when I got an iPod – all the track numbers were already correct.

Problem with importing JPEG into Flash

Hello,
Im using Adobe Flash CS3 PRO. I don't know what's wrong..when I try to import photos into the stage the photos get resized.
My photographs are 550px by 413px. I set my stage to the same size. Then I go to import to stage. I click import as a sequence. All the photos are appear smaller on the stage. They are only about 200px
Why is it happening?????
I am basicaly trying to import a sequence of photographs for my stop motion animation. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks for helping!
Lucas

I don't know the why of it. I don't have this problem most of the time, but I have heard it come up before--I don't remember the solution though. It may have involved importing the image into something that is already scaled smaller.
Anyways, here's a couple of things to check while waiting for someone who might know more to come along.
First, select one of the images and select Modify -> Transform -> Remove Transform. If the Remove Transform option is grayed out, then nevermind.
If that didn't do anything, try dragging one of the images out to the stage from the library and see if it is the proper size.
If you have a ton of images, it's likely that neither of the two things above is an attractive solution anyways.

Problem with importing graphics into InDesign

This is a fictitious example to illustrate my problem...
I have .PSD file measuring 10cm square. It's completely blank except for a layer containing a 5cm square box in the middle. When I import to InDesign it places as a 10cm square picture frame (with the 5cm image in the middle surrounded by blank space), rather than a 5cm square picture frame "snapped" to the edges of the .PSD content.
This means doing a "Fit Frame to Content" now makes the InDesign frame the same dimensions as the .PSD document (ie. 10cm square), when it used to make it 5cm square (i.e the same dimensions as the CONTENT of the .PSD document). Any ideas about changing this back? I've no idea what's changed recently...
Apologies; that's been described incredibly badly. I hope someone understands what I mean!
Thanks in advance

Thanks guys. But in the past when this has happened it's seemed to be linked to the last image I opened in PhotoShop. Often I have to render PDFs in PhotoShop to send visuals to printers and, depending on what I pick in the "Crop to:" drop down box, in the past has altered the way my next image imports in InDesign. In the past if the next .PSD image imported into InDesign with the extra white space around it, I turned Import Options on and then got similar "crop to" options in InDesign, and (off the top of my head) chose "Bounding Box" to resolve the issue. Now I'm just getting the option to turn layers on or off.
That said, InDesign does now seem to be behaving exactly as you (Daniel) describe. This is annoying because I've been testing this now on a .PSD graphic which used to place and crop to the content, but now places at the size of the full PhotoShop document.
And Rik: I agree that I could crop the original images in PhotoShop, which would technically resolve the issue - and may end up being what I have to do in the short term. But I've got a bee in my bonnet about this now, because this isn't how InDesign has been behaving for me for the past 5 years.
I've tried deleting the preferences for both InDesign and PhotoShop in the vain hope it would be as simple as that. That didn't work.
I'll keep searching for the answer...

Problem with imported images into Indesign

I have scanned a book as a one bit (B & W) 600 dpi document. I have imported the document into Indesign as i need to integrate some decsreened pics in. I then export the finished document as a press ready PDF and the image virtually disappears off the page and what is left is very distorted. the type is twice as high and about five times wider than the original image.
I have contacted the scanner company and of course they put the issue with the exporting to the PDF.
Can anybody help??

This is bug #2960217 filed by me in September, relating to Indexed over Gray colorspace, also with a Fujitsu Scansnap S1500M.
I have scanned a book as a one bit (B & W) 600 dpi document. I have imported the document into Indesign as i need to integrate some decsreened pics in.

The scanner that i have used is a Fujitsu Scansnap S1500M.
In short, don't use it in Grayscale (Or BW, I guess) modes. Use it in Color, or make sure to process the iamge in another app (like Photoshop) and save
it with a normal colorspace.

Problems with importing music into my 60gb ipod

I really need some help.. I just recently got the new 60gb ipod and had no problems imporitn music, i have a windows Xp and installed Itunes in which i registed my ipod, i then went on my sisters IBook and imported music from her. I then sucessfully imported more music from my windows computer. well i am currently visitn her and used her comp for more importing when somethien went wrong. My ipod will only play her music and not mine from my computer. It reads the playlists as if my music was there but when selected, it simply skips it and then when i try to play it on her comp the exclamation point goes up. I dont know what to do.. someone please help me!!!

Melissa, iPods were not made to dock to 2 totally different computers. This was done to prevent illegal file sharing. When you originally docked your iPod to your personal computer, the iPod views that as its "home". In docking to your sister's computer, you would have gotten a message saying something to the effect about " this iPod is linked to another library. do you want to replace iPod's contents with the current music library?" If you said "yes", you have now told iPod that your sister's computer is its "home" & that's why it can no longer access your music. The only way to get your music back is to do a restore of your iPod & allow iTunes to re-sync the library on your computer to your iPod.
Even though you are sisters, if you don't live in the same household what you are attempting to do is considered to be illegal file sharing. PLEASE DON'T STEAL MUSIC!

Problems with Importing BQY into Workspace

Hi All,
I need your help with resolving how to import a BQY into my workspace.
When I go to get the BQY (or any file for that matter) from C:\1.bqy (for example), when using the browse button, and navigating my local file system, I get an error that says, "file path is wrong".
Any ideas of what might be wrong?
This is version 11.1.1.2

Problem with imported .AI into Flash (performance issue/frame lag)

Hi Flash people i have a problem:
Background:
i am creating a flash file (old school frame animation with a little AS2) to be used on big screens (in a child libray)
i am importing diffeent files (some PNG some SWF images and Some .AI out of Illustrator) hee is the problem;
The file is BIG 1920+1200px (non scallable) all works fine until the movie hits the imported .Ai file(s) which are
browser views remade in full vecto in illustrator in 1200x800px - i have a simple image transition fom a PNG image
to the browser view (this view is pretty similar to a facebook frontpage in terms of content and text/image distribution.
the transition is 20-25 frames (in 31fps) and works fine with PNG but whrn the .AI frame is loaded the movie solws down
by factor 10 and it takes several seconds (5-8sec.) to play through the 1sec transition.
I have tried to export the same AI page as SWF out of illustrator and the esult is basically the same = exteme frame lag.x
how do i get about this?
i know the 1920x1200px is HUGE for a fullscreen transition/fade, but then again... it should work right?
any ideas? - any other vector formats does a better job (and yes it HAS to be vector as i am also doing some looking class effects)
thjis is really frustrating and the fist time since 96 i have hit the wall with flash :-/ - i have tried everything i know, perhaps overlooking the obvious?

Anyone? :-)

Problems with import mp3 encoding

When I use the apple automator to import wave files (from soundtrack pro) and encode them to mp3 in i-tunes, the audio develops an echo/reverb in the mp3 playback -- although the wave file plays fine.
Any suggestions, comments, help would be appreciated,
Thanks

You probably can't include such characters directly in a Java string.
Try using the Unicode escape sequences for the characters (\uXXXX)
and see if it makes a difference.
Also, you should not need to use MimeUtility.encodeText explicitly,
you should not need to set the Content-Transfer-Encoding header
explicitly, nor should you need to set the Content-Type header
explicitly. JavaMail should do all of this for you.

A problem with importing layered PSD file into Flash

Hi.
There's a problem with importing layered PSD file into Flash.
If I import a layered PSD file, some part the color of the lower layer is shown at the edge of objects or shadows. Instead, if I crop each layers first and import them, there's no problem.
If the higher layer has brush or transparent effects, it becomes worse.
Any help with this problem?
Thanks.

How was the original art created? Was the original RGB or CMYK? What is the resolution of the Photoshop file? Flash only works well with RGB and 72 pixel per inch resolution. If your original art is not set this way, then Flash will attempt to convert it as it imports it. Flash uses the sRGB color space. You'll get the best color translation if your Photoshop file is using this color preference.

Tempo problems with imported wav files

Hey everyone, sorry if there's a quick fix for this in the forums that I couldn't find, but I've been having some tempo problems with imported .wav files.
Long story short, my system couldn't handle playing all the tracks for a song while recording drums, so I bounced out an mp3 of the song and put it in a new Logic file so my drummer could just play along to that as I recorded him. Unfortunately, the original song is at 167 bpm, but I forgot to change the bpm in the new Logic file with the .mp3 file of the song to 167 bpm, so it was left at the default 120 bpm.
So, the drums were recorded at the correct 167 bpm, but Logic thinks that those new drum .wav files should be played at 120 bpm, so when I import my drum tracks back into the original file, they do not play correctly at all.
I could get record it all again, but I wanted to check if there was a way I could salvage what I already have, since my drummer lives about an hour away right now and can't just come over whenever he wants.
Thanks for the help! I really appreciate it.

Hi,
First, do not use MP3 in Logic, the sound quality is less than AIFF, WAV or CAF, and Logic has to decode it for playback, making it a heavier burden on the CPU than an uncoded audiofile, such as AIFF, WAV or CAF.
Secondly, audio files are independent of Logic's tempo. If you bounce down an audio file in any format (other than Apple Loop), it will play back at the same speed, +regardless of Logics' tempo setting+, either at recording or playback. Logic doesn't 'think' anything. The BPM is only important to MIDI tracks, or to the spacing between audio files. The audio files themselves *are not affected* by the tempo setting. If you import an audio file of tempo 167 into a 120 BPM project, the file will still play at 167, only Logic will indicate the wrong bar positions.
regards, Erik.

Problem with showing mp3 album art in list view.

Hello.
I have litle problem with showing mp3 album artwork in list view.
In SNOW LEOPARD all work fine, and all mp3 files have album art's preview in list mode in finder.
But in LION i have only default preview mp3 icon.
Option "Show icon preview" is already on!

I have the fix!!!!
I have had the same issue ever since Lion. Its been very painful not having album art preview in finder or the play button when rollover the file for so many versions of OSX. Today I worked hard in trying to solve the problem since Applecare support hasn't helped much, all they did was tell me to bring the computer in. The other main reason I got so motivated to try and fix this is because the DJ app for Mac only reads album art from the finder even if iTunes can display the album art. The other reason that got me curious is that my friends macbook pro album art worked fine, so I cross checked with his computer until I figured out a few things that helped and ultimately fixed the issue. FINALLY!
My set up:
- I have my full iTunes library folder on my external as I have over 700GB of music.
- It includes all my database files in there, which is very important as I have many playlist settings from over 7 years of iTunes activity.
SOLUTION:
1. With every new computer I have purchased, I use to just pressed option on Mac and press iTunes to locate my folder (which I have said is located on my external drive).
2. I tried today to press option again BUT locate and selected the default library in the user/music folder of my internal drive (standard setting from Apple).
3. Miraculously, all the album art appeared in both my external drive library and also today's downloaded songs on my Macbook pro. Ofcourse with the new default location I don't have any songs or data.
4. So I tried to find a way to keep this library data on my internal drive since it can help the finder display all my files properly, yes even have the play on rollover button but as well link it back to my external drive with all my 700GB songs.
5. I then went into iTunes Preferences/Advance tab and in iTunes Media folder locationredirected the location to my external drive iTunes/ iTunes Media folder. If it asks to collate data, press NO.
6. Then I quit iTunes.
7. Next I copied the 4 files to my desktop from my external drive as I want to keep the data I have made with all my playlists etc. The four files are iTunes Library Extras.itdb ,iTunes Library Genius.itdb , iTunes Library.itl , iTunes Library.xml
8. I then went to my internal drive User/Music/Itunes/ and dragged these 4 files I copied from my external drive into here and making sure to REPLACE the four existing files already there.
9. Next open iTunes and you will find all your presettings appear with all your music linked to your external. What this does is keep the important library files on your internal drive (that somehow makes your finder files album art appear), BUT to read also all the music mp3 files located in the external drive (action from step 5)
Presto!! All your music files whether on internal drive or external all the album art has appeared.
Hope this helps!! Let me know if there are any other questions.
I am on 10.8.1 running retina macbook pro.
