AIFF files playing on my iPhone/iPod

My WireTap (Ambrosia software) AIFF file plays in my iTunes, but I can't hear a note when I call up the song on my iPod in my iPhone. I recall having similar issues with my older, pre-iPhone, iPod.
Any direction? Thank you!

It's a brand new MacBook Air.....10.7.4 I think....

Does anyone know if there is a way for the number of time a song has been played on your iPhone/iPod be transferred to the songs on your iTunes number of plays?

I mainly just use my iTunes for organizing and adding new songs. Most of the time I listen to my music on my iPhone. I wish it would keep track of how many times I play a song in my music and transfer it to the computer under the 'number of times played' column. It would help out so much!

Hi @imobl,
You sound like an Apple support guy who hasn't been able to answer my questions.
To respond to some of the points you made,
- I did not ignore Ocean20's suggestion. If you has read my post, you would have known that I took my phone to the apple service centre where they tried this restore on THEIR machines. I am assuming that Apple guys know how not to block iTunes. So I actually do not understand your point about me trying the hosts file changes on my machine. Do you not believe that apple tested this issue with the correct settings?
- you also give a flawed logic of why the issue is a hardware issue. You mentioned that If I thought that the issue was with the software, i should try a restore and getting it to work. The problem is that my error (23), and many others comes up when the restore fails. And you would be astonished to know that not all errors are hardware errors. Sometimes even software errors prevent restores. Funnily enough Apple itself mention that 'in rare cases, error 23 could be hardware related'.
- all Apple has done so far is replicate the issue. I don not know how anyone can conclude that the issue is a hardware issue.
And by the way, I am not certain that this is a software bug. Again if you read my Posts, you will notice I only want a confirmation,/proof that the issue is hardware related as they mention..
Please refrain do. Responding if there is nothing to add.

Songs playing twice on iphone & ipod

just downloaded some songs and transferred them to my iphone & ipod. i've noticed that some songs are playing twice even if the curved arrow on the side is not even highlighted, meaning its supposed to play just once and move to the next song. any input on this matter would be appreciated. tnx.

Double syncs can be a result of syncing via iCloud and iTunes both. It's one or the other.

Different Decibel Level QT AIFF Files Played Tiger Vs. Leopard

Hi Gang
I still haven't found out why I get different decibel levels when created/played in a Tiger 10.4.11 environnment then played in a Leopard environnment. The levels are always about 1/2 the level when played in Leopard. These files could be AIFF exports within FC5, or could be any AIFF exported audio files created from Garage Band in Tiger then played in a Leopard environnment. Always 1/2 the volume level.
The QT Players are version 7.6.0
The AIFF files, are usually created at 41hz or 44hz at about 128-256 Bit Rate.
Thanx
Mike

I believe I found a partial answer to this
Thanx

AIFF files won't sync to ipod touch

I have a bunch of AIFF files that work fine in iTunes, but they won't transfer to the iPod Touch. I've even run the "create AIFF version" item in the Advanced menu, and the resulting file still won't sync. All MP3 files are syncing just fine.

I figured it out. The sample rate was too high for ipod. I had bought the music files in flac format, which come in something like 99000khz rate. I had imported them into Audacity and exported as AIFF -- assuming that that's all I had to do. Afterall, all references I found mention only the format, not the sample rate. I finally got one to sync when I changed the sample rate within Audacity to 48000khz and exported again.

Convert DVD and other video files for playback on iPhone, iPod, PSP, etc.

So, how are your holidays going? Or, if you're reading this on the weekend, how'd they go? Watching various sorts of DVD movies and videos is a better idea for a pastime during your free time. To make your holiday be more colorful with movies, I prefer to recommend an application to help you guys deal with different kinds of video resources, no matter the DVD files or footages shot by camcorders, or videos in formats of FLV, AVI, MKV, etc., in a word, the converted videos will be supported by whatever portable devices you have, including PSP, iPod Classic, iPod Touch, iPod Nano, iPhone (3G), iPhone, Zune, Zune 2, Blackberry, Nokia, Creative Zen, Sony Walkman, iRiver PMP, Archos, PS3, Apple TV, Xbox, iPAQ, Pocket PC, Mobile Phone, etc. The software is Pavtube Video DVD Converter Ultimate, which combines DVD ripper and Video Converter together, and enables you to edit and convert any DVD, video, audio and image files to other popular formats including MP4, 3GP, FLV, MPEG-4, AVI, MPG, MOV, 3G2, VOB, FLAC, MKA, OGG, WAV, AC3, M4A with super fast conversion speed and excellent image and sound quality.
The detailed user guide will be shown in the following part:
Step 1: Add video and DVD file
You are allowed to add videos to this program via clicking "Add Video", and add DVD files to it via clicking "Load DVD". DVD files can be loaded in three ways: "Load DVD ROM", "Load DVD Folder", and "Load ISO/IFO".
Step 2: Select output format and set destination folder
Videos and DVD files can be added to this program at the same time, after that, you can click the drop-down list of "Format" to select an output format for your portable devices. The format profile provides you with formats for iPod, iPhone, PSP, PS3, BlackBerry, etc. Meanwhile, you can click the folder icon at the end of "Output" to decide where to save the output files. Moreover, if you want to combine multiple files to be a single file, you can tick "Merge into one file".
Step 3: Set advanced settings
If you have the needs of adjusting video and audio parameters to make good control of the output file quality and size, you can click "Settings" button to do it, and all the options like codec, aspect ratio, bit rate, frame rate, audio channel, etc. are changeable on the following window.
Step 4: Start conversion
As soon as the above steps are finished, you can click "Convert" button to start conversion, the following ripping window will show you clearly about all the conversion info. After finished, you are able to find out the output files via clicking "Open" button.

We're not supposed to talk about DVD conversion according to the terms of service ...
So I'll assume these VOB files are from your HOME MOVIE DVDs you burned yourself and suggest the Videora iPod Classic Video Converter.
http://www.videora.com/
It's a really nice program that converts not only your HOME MOVIE DVD VOB files, but AVI, MPEG, and others. You can set the CPU usage from high to low with five settings, it has a queue which you can add multiple files to, and it will minimize to the taskbar for compact convenience. There are other Windows programs that do much the same, but I prefer Videora. Oh ... and it's freeware!!

Aif,aiff files/ play sequentiallly after imported tracks

hi. i-m try getting some help.
1st question>
Is there a way to play sequentially tracks in Adobe audtion after importing those one?
or must i play them one by one and not like an automated task?
2nd question>
After recording some new tracks i save them as *.aiff extension files, but Windows Media player is not able to play them.
All tracks have been recorded at cbr 3072 Kbytes/s, stereo, 48khz sample rate.
i use Xp sp3 fully updated, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 consumer preview as Operating Systems.
Tvm in advanced if i will have an answer.Enrico /Italy

It is always best, and more universally usable, to save your audio files as .wav. This is Auditions default format.
If you import them into the Multitrack view then you can place them sequentially and play them one after another automatically.

Exported AIFF file plays too quickly.

Hi
Im new to soundtrack pro but followed export settings in apple pro training series but when the track is played back, either in FCP timeline or finder it is speeded up. Where am I going wrong?
Thanks
Adrian

On this same subject, I neglected to change sampling rates correctly when going from 48k DAT tape to computer for iTunes. The music is now at 44.1 which I want, but the speeds are too fast.
I found that if I modify the sampling rate to 40,200 and let the pitch and time change with it, I can match the original and resave. (I subtracted the same amout from 44.1 as that is from 48).
Is there a better, easier way that makes more sense? I have the ability to just change the pitch and remain at 44.1 but I don't know by how much.

Why won't iTunes allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created in December of 2014 and January of 2015, but will allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created before December of 2014?

When I buy and download high resolution music files (FLAC and DSD), I convert them to AIFF files and add them to my iTunes music library. Specifically, I have been converting DSD64 files to 176.4/24 AIFF files. These AIFF files (modified in some respects by iTunes) have been synched to my old iPhone 5 and new iPhone 6. Until December, every 176.4/24 AIFF file played as expected. In December, I purchased two DSD64 albums, which I converted to 176.4/24 AIFF files using AudirvanaPlus 1.5. These 176.4/24 AIFF files will not play on either iPhone. When I converted those DSD64 albums to 88.2/24 AIFF files, they played on both iPhones. In December, I also purchased several 192/24 FLAC albums and converted them to 192/24 AIFF files using Amarra HiFi. These 192/24 AIFF files play properly on both iPhones.
Why won't iTunes allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created in December of 2014 and January of 2015, but will allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created before December of 2014?

I have a similar problem and have spent three sequential days at the Apple Genius Bar before we were able to exclude most other possibilities and found that certain files (in my case all mp3s from CDs I own) that play just fine in iTunes 11.0.1 and that used to play in iOS 6.0.1 do not play in iOS 6.1. We restored the phone to factory settings and synced only a few of the music files that were problematic. They still did not play. We reproduced the problem on my iPad mini (iOS6.1).
Apple Telephone Support suggestion was to convert all mp3 files in iTunes to AAC (which according to Apple Website may degrade sound quality). No further suggestions or escalation but a recommendation to place comments on www.apple.com/feedback and, if there are enough complaints, someone at Apple might take an interest in this problem. Something has changed in iOS 6.1 where files that played on prior mobile system software no longer work.
Apple, please pay attention to this glitch with iOS 6.1.

Interactive QuickTime on iPhone/iPod Touch

Hi All
I am a relative newbie. I have created an interactive quicktime mov using Keynote. Works fine on screen and on web. Can't get it play on an iPhone/ iPod Touch. Is there any special quicktime settings I should be using? All help gratefully received.
cheers
Greg

Thanks for suggestion. I am puzzles though. Qt is such a powerful medium. Apple has enabled some of the text tracks within QT to play closed captions on iTunes / iPhone. That is great. How / when do the other tracks get enabled so we can use the full power?

I have created some music tracks as aiff files which I want to load onto my iPod Shuffle 4th Generation, but it won't play them - it just bleeps at me. I have changed them to AAC which works - what settings do I need to use to make aiffs work?

Playing Aiff Files on an Ipod

Hi,
I've just the same problem; does anybody have a solution?

IPod Nano 3rd Gen won't play AIFF files from Logic Pro 9

Hi, so I've bounced a few tracks I was working on in Logic pro 9 as AIFF files, imported them into iTunes and then synced them down to both an iPod Touch 2nd gen and this iPod Nano 3rd Gen. The tracks play fine on the iPod Touch, but on the Nano, when I try to play a track, it shoes the "player" screen for a second, but it always bounces back to the track listing.
According to the iPod Nano 3rd gen spec sheet, it does support AIFF files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP14
Any idea as to why this is happening?
Also, I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.4, iTunes 9.2 and I reset the iPod nano just before starting this whole project.
I'd like to keep the tracks in AIFF if possible...

Greetings WonderfulT1,
If you are having an issue with being unable to start your iPod nano when it is not connected to the computer, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps on this page -
Apple - Support - iPod - iPod nano (3rd generation) Troubleshooting
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,

AIFF files don't play on iPod

Why do the AIFF files that play successfully on iTunes not play at all on my iPod? My software is up to date.I'm on an iMac and use a year-old 30GB iPod.
Details: The files in question are Centerpointe Holosync meditation "tapes" that depend on subtle differences in frequencies. I was told by a fellow user that I was losing the subtleties when I transfered the CDs to iTunes in the normal way and that I should use AIFF formatting. So I followed the instructions and, I thought, successfully copied the CDs onto iTunes; the "get info" screen tells me that indeed they're in AIFF. As I said, the tracks play just fine on iTunes, but I must listen to them using headphones, and the iPod gives me nothing but silence.
I'm sorry if this issue has been addressed before. I've spent the last half hour searching and just gave up and decided to post this as a new question.
Novice here; please be kind. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

Problem solved, if not understood.
I converted the AIFF files to WAV, and now they play.
I'd appreciate it if someone would explain why this was the case, but the problem is not a real problem any more.

20G iPod Won't Play AIFF files

It simply scrolls past them. Any reason for this? The same thing happens with Apple Lossless.

Why don't you try converting the AIFF files to Apple Lossless? I think you may have to burn the AIFFs to CD Audio, then import them, but I assume this would reduce the size of the file to a similar size to a compressed AIFF, and you won't lose the sound quality.
