When I import midi on an older version of itunes, how do I remove the background crackling after the midi to mp3 conversion?

When I import a midi file to itunes (older version as this feature is missing from newer versions) I get a lot of crackling in the background when I convert it.  My midi files don't do that on their own and when I don't convert the file in Itunes, it sounds clear.  How do I get it to sound like the standard playback or if that's not possible, how do I get it to sound clearer?

Do a web search for "revert iTunes".  There are many web sites with detailed instructions.  It is a complicated process and I do not think it can be achieved with Time Machine alone.  Time Machine can act as a source for your old library file but the rest involves going into protected files and folders of the system and removing various components.  Oh, the version to which you want to revert also has to be one of the few still available for download.  I don't, for example, think you can download a copy of iTunes 12.0  It would have to be 11.4 and you would have to have a backup copy of your library file from back when you used that version.

  • 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.

    How did you share this library?  If you're talking about what iTunes has, there is a difference between Home Sharing which is a feature of newer iTunes and enable copying fo files, and plain music sharing which older iTunes had but only allowed music to be played.
    Ah, thanks, that will be it.
    Guess that means I can't use my G3 for doing this. Oh well, not to worry.

    You say, "This works fine," but "this" is vague. Do you mean Home Sharing from your wife's Mac to yours? If so, then yes it will work because they are both capable of Home Sharing.
    Yes, "this" meant importing tracks from the Library on my wife's MBP

  • Older version of itunes can not be removed

    I am trying to update to the 10.5 itunes, and i get an error message saying the older version can not be removed.  Any suggestions?

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • HT1420 I want to transfer music off an old iPod but it says it comes from an older version of itunes Store and won't let me transfer to the new store.

    I want to tranfer music off my old iPod but it says I can't because the music is linked to a different version of iTunes store. What do I need to do?

    Found a resolution. Got a FREE introductory offer from the net and used it to download my music to my computer and then could drag over to iTunes.

  • "The older version of itunes could not be removed"

    This is the error message I receive. I've already tried going to start->control panel->add/remove programs. Same error message. However, it removed enough of the old itunes that I cannot run either the new version OR the old version.

    okay. with that one, let's try the following procedure.
    first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
    next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:
    Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
    now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?

  • When copying (importing) a CD with multiple artists to itunes, how can I get all of the tracks to be on one album?

    Wen copying (importing) a CD into itunes that has multiple artists or duets with a primary artist, how can I get the tracks to all appear on one album?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • I want to sync my Pre with my Mac.... does anyone have access to an older version of itunes? probably need version prior to 8.0... at least

    I called Apple to complain... fat lot of good that did, but it made me feel better I guess.
    It occurs to me that what I really need is an older version of itunes... does anyone know what would be the best one to sync with Pre?  
    Judging from version tracker on cnet, I'm guessing that I need Version 8.0 but I don't know for sure...
    Does anyone have a clue where I can get that?  If so, please contact me personally because I know there are Apple trolls on here.
    thanks 
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    thank you for the help HB,  I probably should have specified that I am on a Mac and do not have Windows OS.  I think the link is for Windows, Vista, etc.
    I found the link, and downloaded, but received this message:
    The document "The document "iTunesSetup.exe" could not be opened. Airport Admin Utility cannot open files in the "Airport Admin Utility document" format."
    I'm afraid I can't find anything online to help my understanding with this... I don't think it'll work for me anyway.
    Does anyone know when Palm is going to do something to allow sync with itunes again?

  • HT1347 I'm having trouble importing a CD into my iTunes library, then finding it later.  Using the newest version of iTunes, and I had no problems doing this with the older version..

    Today I was prompted to update iTunes, which I don't use that often.  I found it was the newest version.  Now, however, when I try to add a CD to my Library, I cannot find it.  When I click import CD, it does not give me an option on where to save it to.  I didn't have any trouble with the older version of iTunes, but now I am completely confused.  I have read the file on Learn about iTunes, and it only tells me how to do it on the older version.  Can someone please tell me how to do this now?  I'd really appreciate it!
    Oh, my OS is Windows Vista.

    iMac optical drive problems are often attributable to heat. The newer Intel iMacs aren't as bad as the 1st Gen G5s were (I know... I had one), but Apple optical drives tend to "flake out" when they get hot, and in iMacs, they get hot quickly. Near the end of my iMac's life, I was ONLY able to use the optical drive within the first five minutes after booting up. After that, it wouldn read, write or even accept a disc.
    If yours works right after a long sleep or shut down, but then goes to failing, it's probably heat.

    Thanks for taking a stab at it: that didn't prove to be the problem. That option in the settings for tabbed browsing was not checked.
    I may be a bit behind the times: I am used to tabbed browsing showing all the tabs it possibly can, instead of just the last one. Sometimes it won't even show the last tab: I can have 15 tabs open, and not see a single tab. I've been confused by this into closing a window with lots of tabs open, because it looks like a single page-window.
    My main problem with the tab-bar flashing to the end of the row is that it means a great deal more mouse-clicking around to browse.
    I haven't tried installing the latest beta. Maybe that would fix the problem.
