Problems with sound quality when ripping using apple lossless

When ripping cd with apple lossless I have problems with parts of the songs falling out. It does not apply for all songs. I use a Mac Pro OS X 10.9.2  with iTunes 11.1.5. Does anyone know why this happens, and what I can do to prevent it from happening again?

Hi Amy:
Sorry that the Color Setting idea didn't do the trick. Since the occurrence is separate, that is, seeing one color view using Elements and a different color view using email view. I still suspect this area.
Calibrating a monitor to me (as the saying goes), is easier said than done. You may want to do a web search using Calibrate Monitor, or similar search words. This will find some interesting websites on calibrating monitors you can read and try out. If you do change some settings, write down what your original settings are before hand, so if you make it worse, you can go back where you started.
There are two areas to calibrate the monitor.
1. Using the monitor controls on the monitor itself.
or/and
2. Using the graphics card (software) control. Which is normally found (Win XP) DISPLAY PROPERTIES>SETTINGS>ADVANCED> then the TAB with your graphics card name.
3. Actually there is a third one, which uses a very expensive device that connects to the monitor. At the moment this method escapes me. Mainly used by professionals and serious photo editing people.
Good Luck!

  • I have an IPod touch 4 gen. And I'm having problems with the audio when I use other than Apple brand earphones

    I have an Ipod Touch 4 gen. and I'm having problems with audio when I use other than Apple brand earphones. I'm talking about music only so far, when I use apple earphones all is fine, but if I use other type of phones ( sony for exemple ) I can only hear the music and the background but not the lead singer voice, can anybody explain this to me? thank you.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    - If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Problems with sound quality

    Hi all,
    I am having problems with the sound of my G5. Ripped music from CD and bought music from Itunes sometimes sounds strange in the bass region. Different EQ-settings do not help. German discussions say that the Ipod amp. is of poor quality. Does anyone have the same experience?
    Best regards !

    I need to hear what you are talking about. You still havent said what it sounds like. Is it distorion, lack of bass, lack of deffinition in the bass. It could be from encoding, but as i said, i usually never hear bad encoding effect bass fequencies. Bad encoding usually effects the higher frequencies. Ive used 128 aac on alot of library and never had a serious issue. Maybe a couple of songs ive heard a couple noticiable artifacts. Do the songs sound fine on your computer on itunes? If they sound fine there, it could be your ipod is bad.
    But After reading your original post again. ive noticed that some of these songs are from ITMS. Ive had bad and great experiances from the ITMS. The quality is very varied on there. I try to advoid buying form there. Most of what ive bought there sounds great, but 1 album in peticualr (seven Mary Three -american standard if any one is intereted) was encoded very poorly with a type of sound you are probably you are hearing. The artifacts are very noticable especially on the first song. Its not the only songs ive gotten that are poorly encoded. and the distorion usually happens when there is alot of bass but it still exists in the high end. But as i said, never had that issue with personal encodings from my own cds.

  • PE3 problems with video quality when exporting

    I've had this issue when putting DVD movies I own onto my iPod, but because I'm doing a client video now, it's crucial that I get the highest possible video and sound quality out of my project. Because the project I'm working on will be about 45 minutes long, I wanted to avoid working on the whole thing in one file since Premiere begins to refuse to let me do the simplest functions if I have too many clips in the timeline. I've been splitting the project up into segments and my plan is to export them and work with them as single clips when compiling the final project together.
    Now here's my problem: I export the segments as HDV 1080 60i files for the highest quality possible, but whenever the exported file is played, these horizontal lines appear on the screen. It's as if the colors are smeared a bit. I honestly don't know how else to describe it. On an iPod, it's only slightly noticeable, but on TV screens like this project will be played on, it'll be too distracting to be acceptable. Can anyone help me out here?

    No, all I'm trying to do is export it to the highest quality video so it can be put back into Premiere to be exported again along with several other clips (also exported in the same way). From there, I'll use different software to burn the entire file onto a DVD. No Blu-Ray, no camcorders, not even firewire connections (my computer doesn't have any). It's just going to be used by some 150 families to be viewed on their DVD players once the product is finished.

  • I have problem with the GPS when i use the apps

    I try to use diffents apps like Runstatic, RunKeepr, Emondo and the record after any running activiti it shorw me a no correct distance and no correct way on the map. Always is more than i did. Is a problem with the GSP of my Iphone ? How I can solvet the problem ? Thanks so much

    Hello eamt,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when you are using apps that use GPS.  It sounds like you are seeing some inaccuracy when using these apps.  I recommend the following steps to improve GPS accuracy:
    Improve GPS accuracy2,4
    GPS accuracy varies depending on the number of visible GPS satellites. Locating all visible satellites can take several minutes, with accuracy gradually increasing over time. Use these tips to improve GPS accuracy:
    Ensure the date, time, and time zone are correctly set on the device in Settings > General > Date & Time. If possible, use Set Automatically.
    Important: Incorrect settings on your computer can sync to your device. Verify the date, time, and time zone on any computer that syncs with your device.
    Restart your device.
    Verify that you have a cellular or Wi-Fi network connection. This allows the Assisted GPS (A-GPS) on the device to locate visible GPS satellites faster, in addition to providing initial location information using the Wi-Fi or cellular networks.
    Note: Microcells (sometimes called Femtocells) aren't supported with Location Services.
    Maintain a clear view of the horizon in several directions. Keep in mind that walls, vehicle roofs, tall buildings, mountains, and other obstructions can block line of sight to GPS satellites. When this occurs, your device will automatically use Wi-Fi or cellular networks to determine your position until the GPS satellites are visible again.

    Hello,
    The suggestion made by Golubkov is correct. Make sure that you have configured the CAN objects to correspond to the Ports- for instance, Port1 to CAN0 and Port 2 to CAN1.
    If this dosen't fix the problem, let us know what the error message clearly states ( can be found out by clicking on the details tab).

  • Problems with color quality when saving photos.

    I never used to have any problems, but just recently I have noticed that, after cropping, editing, resizing my photos, and saving....they look fine on my screen while open in photoshop, but yet when attaching them and emailing or posting them, the color quality seems to change. The photo ends up looking quite different than my original photo (the edited copy). I can't figure out for the life of me what is causing this and do not remember ever having this problem before. The only thing that has changed is a new monitor. I don't think that would have any bearing, because like i said, everything looks great until the photos are sent. (when looking in my sent folder, i can see the "altered" state of the image. it's not just a problem with someone elses computer settings, etc)
    A newbie here with low tech skills, lol. Any help is appreciated, I would just like my pictures to be seen by others in the color state and quality as they appear to me, and it is frustrating.
    I hope my explanation of my problem makes sense and look forward to any advice. (I'm hoping there is a quick solution like a setting I need to click on or off!??)

  • Problem with Video Quality when exporting to Quicktime or using compressor

    I've attempted exporting a video sequence (stills with transitions, video footage and audio tracks) directly as a QuickTime Movie and using Compressor (Apple-DVD-HD_30 Minutes) for import into DVD Studio. The export process seems to work well for each. Only problem: the video seems to get a bit distorted at random spots. The best way to describe the distortion: images (still and video) seem to blur and squiggle for a few frames at a time. This distortion is especially prevalent during more complex transitions (3 Spins and such). The sequence is nice and clean in Final Cut. I'm only seeing this distortion after export. Thanks for any thoughts you might have on this issue.

    @Harm,
    "Pear-shaped" (or sometimes "fruit-shaped") is a euphemism meaning that the effort has gone awry; it was a mess.
    @John,
    Export to DVD is a PPro 2.0 function; in CS3 it is now Export to Encore. Is that what you meant?
    First thing is to check the field orders of your source material and of your export settings. Don't invert them, and don't deinterlace interlaced footage.
    Perhaps a short list of the settings you have tried (and why you chose those settings) would help us help you.

  • I have an i pod and am having problems with sound. When I watch any video on the device with headphones the music is always too loud for the voice meaning i can't hear what is being said. This problem is accompanied with a buzz in some parts of the music.

    When watching a video with my headphones the volume of speech seams very low even when i adjust volume. The speech also tends to make a humming sound in places. When I listen to music humming is sometimes transmitted, but the volume level is normal. The problem is that when the video is playing i can only hear music and humming with the voice too quiet to hear properly. How can I make both volumes balanced? Also. This happens in all music videos.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • Problem with Image Quality when Exporting

    I am having an issue with the video quality whenever I export to a .mov or .mpeg file.  Although my film looks good when I'm editing it in Adobe Premiere Elements, whenever I export the quality suffers.  It becomes somewhat blurry, with pixellated lines visible when the camera moves or when things move that I'm filming.  Does anyone know what's going on or how I could fix it?  Thank you very much.

    If you haven't already you need to change the resolution as well.  Like this:
    72ppi is the default which in theory should be fine for on screen viewing, but play around and use what works for you.

  • Problem with photo quality when exporting interactive pdf

    Hi guys!
    I made a simple pdf with before/after retouching samples with photos overlayed, changing on mouse rollover.
    When I export it as an interactive pdf (on lossless jpeg quality), the photo quality on the final pdf looks like a jpeg on 40% quality, really bad. Rollover works.
    When I export it as a pdf for print on high quality - the photo quality in the final pdf is flawless but rollovers dont work.. (I checked "Interactive Elements: Include Appearance) but still nothing..
    Pleeease help cause I can't find a way. I just need the rollovers to work and to have the photos in the best quality possible.
    Thanks,

  • Problem with special characters (&) when printing using XSL-FO ...

    Hello everybody !!
    I have a problem when I want to print a Report with a link to a URL where the character "&" is present :
    I want to have something like : src="file:///...webfile?param1=val1*+_&_+*param2=val2"
    In my XSL-FO file, I wrote : src="file:///...webfile?param1=<xsl:value-of select="IDARTICLE"/>*+_<xsl:text>&amp;</xsl:text>_+*param2=<xsl:value-of select="MARQUE"/>"
    When I try this only with FOP, it works. However, when I upload the XSL-FO file to ApEx, it says my PDF file is corrupted when I want to open it.
    What do I have to put the '&' symbol when I want to print the Report ??
    Could anyone help me ??
    Thanks by advance,
    Pierre C.

    I believe this relates to something I have actually found in my own testing.
    It is probably due to the Template not being URLEncoded prior to transmission to the FOP processor.
    I actually determined that special URL characters, like '+' and '&', are lost on transmission because the type of submission is POST with x-www-form-urlencoded, but the fields are not actually encoded entirely. The XML Element contents are encoded prior to transmission in order to preserve data.
    Work around would be to URLEncode the template as it sits in the WWV_FLOW_REPORT_LAYOUTS. I have been able to successfully get around the problem by doing that.

  • Have you problems with sound card when playing Netflix movies on MacBook Pro ?

    We have been having difficulty playing movies recently and we called Netflix last night. Accrding to their error code, we should re-install sound cards they said. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I'm not sure what to do to remedy this issue? thank you!!

    I'm so ****** off that it's been weeks and no solution has been provided for this.  In the middle of video editing, watching quicktime videos, youtube, or playing any games the computer hard freezes with a black screen and looping audio of about 1/2 second.
    FIX IT!
