Setting Quicktime as default mp3 and wav player

Hello
I know this is a pretty basic question, but how do I set Quicktime to be my defualt player for mp3 and wav files?
If i select a wav file and then tick the "Always Open With" box it only does it for that particular file and I can't find any related options within the program.
any help will be very much appreciated.
thank you

Highlight a mp3 with the mouse, then get info from the finder. (Right click or click+control key.) A window will open up with the mp3 info. Scroll down to where it says, "Open with:." Click on the tab to pick an application to open the mp3 with. If Quicktime doesn't show up in the drop down menu, pick OTHER at the bottom of the menu. The Application window (folder) should open up, if not, navigate to you Application folder. Scroll down to Quicktime and pick for the application to open the mp3 with. Done. Do the same with a wav file.
Best bet is to click on CHANGE ALL in the info window. This will change all mp3s and wavs file to open with Quicktime.

MP3 and WAV tagging Prog

I have hundreds of albums ripped into my PC and I am trying to get all of my MP3's and WAVs tagged in the same uniform way. I want to see if any of you know of a program that I can download that will do what I am looking for. I want all of my songs to be named as follows:?0 Tom Sawyer02 Red Barchetta03 YYZ04 Limelight?As you can see I want the songs to simply have the song number and title and that is it. Over the years I have ripped CDs before I really thought of ripping them in a uniform way and now I am having to spend countless hours doing it manually. Before I spend countless more hours perhaps someone here knows of a great program that will take my songs and tag them this way. I need it to cover both MP3 and WAV if possible. Thanks!

Can't set Quicktime as default media player

I have Quicktime Pro 7.1.3 on Windows XP Pro (SP2)
When I insert a DVD movie to play...the dialogue box for me to choose an application only has Windows Media Player. I can use Quicktime to watch the movie. Also, I can't even set Quicktime as my default media player under "Start->Set Program Access and Defaults->Custom"
There isn't an option for me to set Quicktime as my default player anywhere. I've tried setting the preferences in Quicktime to recognize those file types but still nothing. I know that Quicktime is installed correctly because I can use it to watch .mov files and watch Quicktime content on the web.
Any suggestions as to how I can get Quicktime to be my default media player or watch a movie using QT?
PC Windows XP Pro

QuickTime Player is not licensed for MPEG-2 playback (the format found on DVD's). It will never be able to view "Hollywood" DVD's because those contain CSS (encryption).

MP3 and Flac player

Hi,
I am looking for a good audio player with the option to play MP3 and Flac files.
I have tried FLAC player but its capability for organizing and editing files according to composers and musical works is very limited.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Amnon

Flash: I use Adobe 64 bit when absolutely necessary, behind NoScript and FlashBlock (Firefox addons) and sandfox
Audio Player: mplayer (with smplayer frontend), and also VLC
File Archiving: Personally I use a chooser script from within my file manager for most archiving. That way I can do it fast and can customize the script with any archive formats and options I want. Likewise, I use an xtract script associated in my file manager so I can click on any archive and it is instantly extracted into a subfolder - no interaction. Also, if you want 7-Zip support it's p7zip, although I think xz is a more linux friendly and capable implementation of lzma2.
Audio Ripper: Asunder is pretty good, although I'm still shopping.
Video Ripper: I use mplayer, usually through ripdvd
ISO Burner: I wrote a custom script for burning (which I haven't shared) that does it with CLI commands, which I found to be the easiest and most reliable method. Graveman and Brasero are also decent.
PDF Viewer: Evince

Editing mp3s and WAVs

Maybe the wrong forum but I thought you guys might know. I'm looking for a simple program that will let me do some simple editing on music mp3s and perhaps on WAV files as well.
Mostly, I want to be able to cut and add material in a song (silence, combining tracks, etc.), and to change sound levels in part or all of a song.
Freeware is fine if it works well, otherwise I'm willing to pay. I haven't delved into Garage Band too much, but when I have it's seemed rather complex for what I want.
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

As far as I can tell, all the things you want to do, except importing WAV, can be done with the freeware editor Audacity.
If you're willing to pay $79.95, you can have the very good shareware editor (my opinion) Sound Studio.
Another ($30) editor is Amadeus II (15 day trial available) , which might be sufficient for your purpose.
Hope this helps.

Audio files saved as both mp3 and wav

I'm using CS5.5 and suddenly when I save a file as an .mp3 it will also make .wav copies of the file, and since at this radio station we conserve space by only recording at 320Kbps .mp3, wav files are just too big. Is there a setting I can change to save only to the .mp3 that I have chosen?

Can you please describe exactly how you're doing this? FWIW, I'm not aware of any way that Audition can do this unaided...

If Firefox is set as the default browser, and any application attempts to open a new window, this fails and I get the error "Firefox is already running..."

Here is what I am running:
Microsoft Windows 7, Service Pack 1, Fully updated to 4/10/2012
Fresh Install of Firefox 11. No add-ons enabled as a result of troubleshooting.
I am a user with administrator rights
UAS is disabled.
To begin, this has been going on Since Firefox 10 or so. A few months now.
I am able to open Firefox. My add-ons worked (ABP, Flashblock, ABP Element Hiding Helper, IETAB2, Downthemall, Greasemonkey, 4chan extension) had no problems. Firefox is set and has been set for the last two years as my default web browser.
However Since approximately Firefox 10 or so, maybe before that, If I have a Firefox session open, and any other application attempts to open a session in a new window, I get the Firefox is already running, but not responding error."
I attempted to follow troubleshooting advice already posted (look for parent.lock files left behind [none present], multiple sessionstore.js files [none present], create a new user profile, attempted to clear out the "read-only" permission in windows 7, however as soon as it is cleared, the read only permission returns.)
As a last resort, I deleted the Firefox folder, the %APPDATA%/Mozilla directory in its entirety, then utilized CCleaner to remove any and all references to Firefox in the windows registry, then did a full re-install, no extensions installed right now.
I checked preferences and have the option "open new windows in a new tab" checked off. The problem persists regardless if this option is checked on or off. This problem persists in or out of safe mode, even with the brand new install.
Test Cases:
All cases:
Firefox is selected as the default browser for windows 7
Case 1: Open a firefox session. Utilize any other program that attempts to open a link to their website in a new browser window or new browser session. Experience "Firefox is already running" error
Case 2: Open a firefox session. Right click on Firefox on the task bar. Select "open in new window". Experience "Firefox is already running" error
Case 3: Open a firefox session. Select the Firefox Menu > New tab > New Window. A new window will actually open.
This is the only method of opening a new window in the same browser session or profile that actually works on my system. Attempting to open a browser session from the task bar "open new window dialog" or opening a new window while a current window/session is running will not open firefox in a new window or a new tab in the current session. The "Firefox is already running, but is not responding" error will occur every time.

Cor-el's suggestion resolved my problem. Apparently the MOZ_NO_REMOTE variable was set to 1 on my system variables. I never made it, and really have no idea how it got there, but deleting this variable and restarting firefox has resolved the issue. Thanks Cor-el!
Marking case: Solved
Solution: Verify the MOZ_NO_REMOTE variable is NOT set to 1. This can be achieved by simply deleting this variable.

I set Firefox as default browser, and now IE is gone. How do I get it back?

I downloaded the current version of Foxfire and set it as my default browser. I need to apply for work and many companies only support IE. I clicked on IE and only Foxfire opens on that icon. I can't find my IE, my bookmarks there are gone and I can't apply for the jobs! I took Firefox off as default browser, but it didn't bring back the IE. I am very unhappy at this point and need help!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== when I set Firefox as my default browser

After a lot of messing around with settings, and different windows, I found that it's only the desktop icons that are defaulting to open the Firefox browser. If you go to your program list, and open IE there, it works and all the bookmark info is still there.

After effects cc - Mp3 and wav file

I am having a problem with audio in after effects cc. I have added an mp3 audio file (narration) which works and sounds fine, however as i add another track (the music) and press ram preview an audio errors occurs on the new track.
I have tried changing between wav and mp3 formats however i am still getting the same problems.
1. The audio jumps
2. The audio seems scrambled, parts of the track play when they shouldn't (for instance when the introduction should be playing the 1st verse plays instead)
I am using - 64bit windows home premium,
What is causing this and how do i fix it?
thanks

You have an issue with your audio hardware and AE is unable to get it to play and mix multiple audio streams in realtime. Update the driver, configure it properly. Otherwise apply a dummy audio effect to the layers to enforce rendering to memory instead of realtime playback.

Exporting Audio - .mp3 and .wav files

OS: Windows XP
Captivate version: 3
When exporting audio files, both a .wav file and .mp3 file are exported for each audio instance listed in the Library.
Why are there two different versions of the same audio?
Does Captivate utilize both?
I appreciate your help.
PJL

Hi Mukul
Thanks for that answer! Can we take it one step further and clarify something please?
Imagine that one has a MP3 file they successfully import into Captivate. It gets converted to WAV upon import. If the user does not modify it in any way during the edit process, is the same MP3 used when publishing? Or is it modified in any way going back out?
Cheers... Rick

HT1637 Setting the "Actual" default Email and Browser?

I know how to set my default Mail reader (Can we say shameless self-promotion and poorly engineered location Apple? Seriously? In your own "canned" application? I love your products but some of your choices are "head scratchers" or seem like MS'isms {shudder}) but how do you get the Applications like Safari or perhaps the printing service to recognize that when you select the "Mail PDF" you want it to open your Default Mail application which isn't Apple Mail?

I know how to find the settings but they do not work system wide. Whats the point of setting defaults if it doesn't always work?
My browser default is Firefox, yet some links in Mail launch Safari.
My email default is Thunderbird, yet there is no option for it in iPhoto.
etc. etc.
I am looking for help from someone who knows how to write or find scripts that will help fix these inconsistencies.

Setting quicktime 7.6.6 as default for opening all audio

I am having a problem getting rid of or even finding an older version of qt 7 (7.4.5) which seems to exist somewhere on my computer and is set as my default for opening .wav files when I need them to be opened with 7.6.6. How can I find it if within my applications and utilities if the only thing that seems to exist there is 7.6.6? Is there also just some way to set 7.6.6 to be the new default to deal with all audio in the future. I know about going into 'get info' and setting the 'open with' option and then 'change all…' but that still only seems to affect the 'all' in the same folder and not on my whole computer. Would be nice not to have to do all these extra steps every time I need to open up a file. Thanks in advance for any insight.

The update is for Tiger and Leopard only, not Snow Leopard.

Since installing Firefox as my default browser, and removing Internet Explorer 9,which was awful, my Homepage screen is just in the middle of my screen with very small print and empty space on each side of it. Can the be fixed?

Three days ago I installed Internet Explorer 9 as my browser. When I tried to sign in to my email on my homepage I couldn't.
I contacted my service provider and they said that Explorer 9 was not compatible with them as it is in Beta form and also in test mode.
They suggested that I remove Explorer 9 and install Firefox, which I did. Then they said it was a good idea to have more than one browser at a time and to go into the Microsoft site and download Explorer 8.
I tried this and it would not let me go back to Explorer 8 only forward to 9 which I reinstalled.
After all of this my Homepage only fills up the middle of my screen and I have empty space on either side of the picture. When I browse, the site I go to opens up to full page, but the print is much smaller than before.
I don't know what I installed to make my viewing so much smaller or my homepage to shrink.
Also do I really need 2 browsers or can I just go with Firefox?
If so, how will not having Internet Explorer affect my browsing?
Firefox is set as my default browser and I am enjoying using it, I just wish I had my Homepage back to full screen!

When going to a website the picture was small - tried changing the Zoom size , tried Zoom Reset - the text did change size but the layout distorts - found under View - Zoom - Zoom Text Only was checked --- Removed this check mark and the website returned to normal size and Zoom worked normally again. I am 99.9999% sure I did NOT check this myself and there is no one else on the computer to cause it. Maybe this will help.
