Another, Yet Different, Importing Problem

I have two hdd and one is purely a storage. Wanting to upgrade to Win7 I backed up/exported my iTunes play list to my storage hdd. Did my Win7 upgrade reinstalled iTunes and went to import my playlist...I researched (Google) how first, to make sure to do it correctly but the only things that get imported are my custom play list names...NO MUSIC, MOVIES, APPS, TV SHOWS, MUSIC VIDEOS...I did all the computer OS things right, I have all my data still intact on my storage drive. But nothing seems to be importing to iTunes. If a similar problem has been asked already I do apologize...I did search and didnt find a post with a similar problem as I am having. Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions.

All right, So I fixed it. I think what I did before was "Export Library" to My Music folder in the storage drive...I opened up my fresh install of iTunes and went to File>Add Folder To Library...>My Music Thinking I would take all the media I had physically put on the hard drive only and try to pull purchased stuff from iPod...All of my data was there and iTunes restored all my play lists and all other purchased media just how I backed it up.

  • Another 16:9 import problem

    I have read a bunch of postings on this problem, but none seem to be working for me, so any advice is much appreciated.
    I have a older (about 5 years old) Sony Camcorder that does have a FireWire [iLink] port. I have recorded all my tapes in the camcorder's 16:9 format. When I connect the camcorder to a HDTV, I have to adjust the TV's screen to FULL, which stretches the image to fit the full 16:9 dimensions (this loses the black bars off the top and bottom of the captured video. However, when I connect to iMovie 9, there is no "FULL" equivalent as far as I can tell so the video remains squashed, with two black lines top and bottom.
    I have changed the preferences between 16:9 and 4:3 to see if there is an improvement, and 16:9 seems the better choice, but it doesn't resolve the issue. I have tried clicking on the small cog on the imported video and selected "FIT" and "CROP." This does remove the black bars, but also loses a portion of the video off the left and right sides too.
    Does anyone know how to keep the whole picture while losing the the bars top and bottom?

    I'm really unsure of the cause of your problem, but technically, I can't see how iTunes could have an impact on the iPod play back in your car.
    could it be related to an iPod software update that you would also made? I mean, by installing 3.0 or 3.1 on your iPod at the same time you have upgrade iTunes?

  • Another (yet different) finder freeze and login

    So my usually bulletproof TiBook just started freezing at login. Specifically, 10.4.9 launches perfectly up to the login screen. I type in my password (I only have 1 user+root) and the login screen fades to blue. And stays with the Apple blue background. The hard drive doesn't spin-the computer just sits there.
    Some useful info:
    This started when I tried uninstall some user added preference panes that I didn't need/want anymore. One was the StuffIt AVR pane. The others were Silk, ShapeShifter, and Application Enahncer.
    After logging in as a root user and deactivating AE, I was able to get a little further in logging in–my usual background would launch and I would get the Spotlight icon in the upper right, but that's it. If I move the cursor over the Spotlight icon, I get the spinning beach ball.
    The last work I did before it started not logging in was to remove the StuffIt pane. I didn't think I had the uninstaller so I personall trashed the pane. Then I found the uninstaller and ran it, removing AVR and MagicMenu (which I think is the real culprit).
    I've tried reinstalling StuffIt from the root account, resetting holding down power until the beep and restarting holding down apple-option-o-f. Needless to say, I never had a problem with all these preference panes until I went to uninstall them....
    Thanks for the tips!

    Hello theredf:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    You might try running repair disk from your software install DVD.
    If that does not help, I would consider an archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    A&I will install a fresh copy of OS X while preserving your files, programs, and settings. As always, it is good practice to back up before any software changes. You would, of course, need to update to current software levels (OS X 10.4.10 is current).

    Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to  one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
    Thanks again, Sandra2474.

  • LR3.2 import problem on computer with Windows OS

    LR3.2 import problem on Windows OS
    This is a continuation of a question that I posed on August 22, 2010 in the discussion string "Cannot import CR2".  I have not been able to resolve the issue of importing an image into an existing folder location.  I had not been able to work on this issue for a number of weeks due to other circumstances, until today.   Note that the following people had attempted to provide answers and suggestions already:  ssprengel, JayS In CT.
    I use a laptop with a Windows operating system and a Macintosh desktop with Snow Leopard.  I run Lightroom on both of them.  The Windows laptop has Windows Vista Home service pack 2, version 6.0 [6002].  Around August 12th I upgraded from Lightroom 2 [481478], to Lightroom 3 on the laptop.  I left the LR2 on the laptop as well as LR3.  On September 12th I upgraded the laptop to LR3.2.  No other changes have been to the laptop or its software applications that I know of.
    My current attempts at resolving the issue reveal that when I created a new catalog "Test Catalog" in LR3 and saved that catalog to my desktop new folder labeled "Test Catalog" that I can import an image into LR3.2 to a new folder on the laptop's desktop.  I then deleted the images via LR3.2 Folders Remove function and tried to import the images into an existing folder as presented in the LR3.2 Import dialog, but get the error message "The following files were not imported because they could not be read.".   When I import images into a new folder placed on the desktop, I can use all functions in LR3 e.g. Develop module.  I cannot import images into existing folders on the laptop's hard drive - I have tried importing into the entire existing folders in the following hierarchy:  c:\users\Michael\My Documents\My Pictures\2010  but always get the same error message.
    LR3.2 does correctly backups upon exiting each time I quit the program, so I know that there isn't any issue of writing to that backup folder which is contained in an upper folder that contains the lightroom catalogs.  I have even created a new Word file, saved it into the folder with Lightroom catalogs, opened it up, modified it, saved it, and saw that it works OK, so that tells me there is no problem with a Read-Only folder attribute.
    I cannot recall if upon the upgrade from LR2.6 to LR3 that I chose to upgrade the catalog to LR3 version.  Would that matter, if yes, what do I verify, how do I manual upgrade the catalog.
    History of actions between August 10th that I have taken follows between the [[[[ and ]]]]:  
    [[[[Preference settings for Default Catalog are set to start with a specific catalog that I call "Lightroom master catalog", it is not set to the "Load most recent catalog". 
    All of the following were using my laptop:  Previously I had no problem with LR2 for any functions.  I just purchased an Epson 7000 media storage device, and in early August and practiced importing images into LR2, and those images were pulled in OK. Next, I upgraded to LR3.  I discovered that the Epson's images had been placed into a wrong folder when I opened LR3.  I used the remapping function in LR3 to move the images into the correct folder.  Next, I used a SanDisk card reader to import images into LR3 into an existing folder of images, but the following error message appeared "the following files were not imported because they could not be read" (Import Results said  'some import operations were not performed').  I tried importing a single image, and multiple images, but had the same error.  I tried switching the card reader to each of 4 different USB port on the laptop, with the same error occurring on each USB port used.
    In order to try to isolate the problem.  I took the SanDisk card reader with the memory card and successfully imported the images into LR3 on my Macintosh desktop computer; so to me the problem is not the card reader or the memory card.  I also used the SanDisk recovery disk while using my laptop to look at the files on the memory card and I could see all the images correctly while in the recovery program, but I have not copied the images to the laptop's hard disk, and have not tried an import into the laptop's LR3.  I did not import images directly from my camera to the laptop LR3 since I did not think it would help with the troubleshooting. 
    I then ran the Repair from the Adobe LR3 CD upgrade disk, on my laptop.  Then I tried doing the import using the SanDisk reader and memory card, but the same problem occurred and same error message, that the files could not be imported (I was trying to import into a folder of existing images).  I then used the Laptop's Control Panel function to remove LR3 application.  Then I did a fresh upgrade of LR3 on my laptop, but the same error message and I am unable to do any import of the memory card from the card reader.  I then tried to do an image import from the Epson 7000 into the laptop, and the same error message and I am unable to do any import into a folder with existing images.   I then tried doing an image import into LR2 on the laptop, and got the same problem to occur when trying to import into an existing folder of images.  I have a couple of  Canon EOS SLR digital cameras, and the issue occurs for any of the file types of the cameras.
    Went into LR3 Preferences, General Tab, I now checked the previously unchecked box for Import Options - "Show import dialog when a memory card is detected".
    Connected the Canon XTi directly with a cable to the laptop computer.  Note that Canon's information said that Picture Transfer Protocol is automatically used when the XTi is directly connected to a computer, so I did not need to change anything in the camera's menu for communications choices (there is no communication menu in fact).  I selected one image and copied it to the laptop desktop.  Tried to import it into LR3 into a folder of existing images but got the error message "Could not copy a file to the requested location."  While in LR3, I changed the location of where the file would be copied into - any of my existing folders of images; tried 5 different folders, but kept getting the same error message.
    With the card reader connected via USB port on the laptop, I copied one image file to the desktop, and then tried importing into LR3 into a folder of existing images.  Got the error message "Could not copy a file to the requested location."]]]]

    I am not clear if by 'import' you are trying to copy or move the files from a location to another or if you are adding the files to a catalog.  My comments may not, therefore, be too helpful.
    Firstly, with both LR2 and LR3 installed you will have both catalogs present, but if you try to open the LR2 catalog with LR3 you will be prompted to update the catalog.  You will thus know which catalog you are working on. 
    Secondly, if you are reading direct from the camera, you should connect using the 'PC connection' mode.
    Thirdly, there is an issue with reading .CR2 files directly from the early Canon DSLRs (in Europe named 300D, 350D, 400D).  While they are visible with the Canon software, they can not be seen with Windows explorer nor can they be accessed with Lightroom. 
    I suggest that you take the CF card out of the camera and copy the files using Windows Explorer in to the destination folder.  You are then sure that the files are on the PC.
    If you have the right Codec installed, you can view them with Windows photo gallery; if you don't, you can use one of the Canon software packages to view the files.  You are then sure that the files are not corrupted.
    Then import the files to your LR catalog using the normal import routine selecting 'add without moving'.  I have tried this routine  successfully using my 350D using both LR1.x and LR3.x.  If that doesn't work - I'm lost.

  • Same Old Import Problem

    I've put this thread up ages ago but I still have the problem and I am hoping someon e might justr be able to help. This is the problem: I cannot import audio into AU1.5. I can record in real time but can't use the Audio/Import action in the program. I get the attached error message. I ahve gone through all the settings and checked them with another computer that imports with no problems whatsoever and everything seems to match up.
    Here is what I am using: A Dell Inspiron Lapton 1300; an external DVD drive LITEON EZ-DUB; an external Audio card - USB 7.1 CH3D. I only put the external audio card in in case the problem was with the built in audio card on the laptop's motherboard but it doesn't make any difference.
    I am nearly losing what little hair I have left on this one and would really appreciate some feedback
    Many thanks

    None of the actual FAQs are lost  - they are all on the AudioMasters forum (except the ones I haven't finished editing yet, which is about three of them). But I don't recall seeing one about this, I have to say. The closest I can get (and this may be relevant, because I don't think it affects just ripping) is this one.

  • Aperture Video Import Problem - from Lumix GH4: Imported clips have their dates changed to the import date.  The files show up on the hard drive but many are not showing up in Aperture.

    Aperture Video Import Problem - from Lumix GH4: Imported clips have their dates changed to the import date.  The files show up on the hard drive with import date not created date, but many of these same files are not showing up in Aperture. Sometimes the clips actually show up with the current import but take on the video information from a previously imported file.

    It was suggested I move this question to IPhoto or IMovie which I did. 
    Well moving to a different discussion group did not provide an answer to this question either. But what I finally did was import one batch of photos and videos into IPhoto for a given day at a time. Working with these I could change the date and times in order to get them in the original sequench taken. Then I would create an album with that batch. These would all be on the same day (IMove was closed for this phase). Then I would open IMovie, generate the thumbnails for that album, and select the album I had created. This was necessary because the importing process in IPhoto was using incorrect dates for my video so it was a real struggle finding them in IMove until I developed this approach.
    I believe that this whole process was so screwy because I was importing from an external hard drive not a camera. I had these photos on a PC and did not have the original cameras to use to import directly which I am fairly sure would have made this easier!

  • Error in Transport- has not yet been imported successfully in target system

  • Imovie Mac importing problem or Camcorder problem?

    I run a small business for kids parties. I video the kids dancing along to a track they have recorded (played on a cd player). Then i import the video, turn off the camcorder sound and import the finished mixed track of their singing and sync the picture and audio together. This has been working perfectly for over a year. But unfortunately in the last month when i try to sync up the audio track with the video, it starts off synced up perfectly, but gradually as the video goes on the video and audio become out of sync and by the end the video is either too fast or too slow. this is a huge problem! I thought it may the tapes in the video camera so i changed them and it's still doing it. Is this a video camera problem or computer importing problem. Can anyone help as it's ruining the kids DVDs!

    I am surprised it has ever worked. That can normally only be done with synched professional equipment. Maybe they changed the CD player at the performance and the old one happened to play at the same rate as your Mac when it imports? (There is a slight difference between the playback speed between different players)
    Or perhaps your video camera has become slightly worn, so it pulls the tape slower?
    There are endless possibilities for problems with your setup.
    I think you should take a look at the "add scaled" tip at the bottom here:
    http://danslagle.dvmix.com/mac/iMovie/audio/1001.shtml
    (Instead of adding the extracted audio from iMovie, you should add the CD audio.)

  • 9i import problem

    We use oracle 9i on windows 2000, now we want to migrate database to another server. when I export all tables, it success without error and warning. But when I import, each time there is one table I could not import, give the message
    IMP-00058 oracle error 942 encounted
    ORA-00942 table or view does not exist.
    only one table is empty.
    If I change the export table order, then when I import, the another one has same problem. It looks like random, and onle one table can not be imported. I already runed all necessory script
    catalog.sql etc first.
    Could anyone give me some suggestion? I really appraciate it.
    By the way, when I export the whole database or user,
    there is always error
    EXP-0006 internal inconsistency error
    EXP-00056 oracle error 1403 encounted
    ORA-01403 no data found
    but when export by tables, there is no any problem.

    You might like to try the Database General forum with this query.
    I suspect you have an issue with the export/import views.

  • Iphoto Import problems

    Hi guys,
    Ive had my panasonic camcorder for sometime now and i am never able to get the videos off the camera unless i go into imovie and import them through there which will not work for this small project as i need each clip individually. When i plug in my camera this comes up
    No video or anything. Also there is no way i can drag the clips off the file cause the file is no where to be found on it. But when open it with imovie it finds it and looks like this
    I need to be able to import it as different clips cause there is going to be around 200-300 clips.
    Is there another way to import it? or am i doing something wrong?

    Look at the file extension? Read the camcorder manual? Check teh CamCorder menues to see if format is selectable? look at the movie info in iMovie? in the finder? in QuickTime?

  • Topic import problems

    Hello! Hope someone in Expertland can help me.
    This issue occurs using Robohelp X5 or the trial version of
    Robohelp 8 that I recently downloaded. I am using Robohelp HTML.
    As soon as I put my project under version control (Microsoft
    Visual SourceSafe 2005 - ENU) I am unable to import HTML topics
    from my other Robohelp HTML projects. (I am using
    FILE>Import>HTML File.)
    I have never had a problem importing HTML topics when the
    project is NOT under version control.
    Is there another way to import HTML files when under version
    control?
    Or if this is a bug, is there a fix that I can apply?
    Waiting for the good word,

    Ok so summary- really two things:
    How do I send RAW files to Photoshop for retouching and specify where the new PSD is created so I don't have to delete duplicates?
    I think the closest thing to what you want here is to set up a custom Image Export preset(s) to export a PSD 16-bit (you can choose colorspace and DPI as well). The 'Shift-Command-E' shortcut loads the export dialog and you can designate a location as well as folder and file naming.
    The 'Edit' at the bottom of the Folder and File naming drop-downs will get you to the pane allowing customization on a pretty deep level here.
    Main caveat = in all cases in my experience, export sends a one layer PSD file to the location.
    Note - I don't know much about Apple Script, but you may be able to come up with something for this to make it automated to some degree.
    And how do I send the original Photoshop file back to Photoshop without Aperture duplicating it first.
    I don't think this can be done.
    Assuming you import a PSD into Aperture for management, exporting doesn't drop you back in to Aperture with the edits (only the 'Edit with Photoshop CSx will do that, which obviously makes the new Master prior to sending).
    The other problem that I have experienced with multiple edits in both programs is this:
    1 - Import PSD file and make adjustments in Aperture
    2 - Send to Photoshop to edit (layers, filters, whatever) and save back to Aperture
    3 - Apply more edits to saved file in Aperture
    4 - Send back to Photoshop and edits from step #3 do not exist in resent file
    I have only been successful in keeping the edits in step #3 if I make a duplicate version for the file after step #3 for resending to Photoshop, but this flattens the file nullifying the idea.
    Basically, I haven't found a way to add edits to a PSD file in Aperture and send to Photoshop without flattening the file.
    Maybe someone else has an idea on this one.

  • XML Premiere 5.5 to FCP7 Import problem

    I am working with an outside editor who did some edits for my company in Premiere 5.5.
    They're  tryng to supply me with a FCP7 compatible XML file for import into FCP7.
    Well I am able to convert the XML file in FCP7, but not all of the info is coming thropugh properly.
    The edit is a simple one...
    2 camera A/B talking head
    1 Main Audio track whihc is done as 4 audio (2 stereo) tracks in Premiere.
    The edit supplied to me comes through with the video being fine on 2 tracks.
    However, the audio track does not even show up in my timeline.  However it's there on his Premiere timeline.
    Any idea what might be the problem?
    I have supplied pics of both timelines for reference. 
    One is his Premiere timeline, the other is my FCP7 timeline after XML conversion.
    Premiere timeline with 2 videos tracks and 4 audio tracks.
    FCP7 timeline with 2 video tracks and only 2 audio tacks sowing up.
    Where is the other audio track.

    Jeff,
    Thanks for your advice, the use of the UT Video Codec Suite has been exceedingly helpful in capturing video. It has made 1080i capture much simpler.
    Unfortunately it has not solved my 720p import problems.
    I have played around with several different configurations. If I record 720p at 29.97 frames, the whole video imports without difficulty, but the sound is messed up. But when I try to import 720p video at 59.94 frames, Premiere Pro will only import the first couple of minutes of the video if the video is longer than 7 minutes.
    If you have any further advice, I would appreciate it.

  • CS5 Windows import problems (ppj, avi)

    I have the CS5 Master Collection installed on a Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit laptop. I have some old Premiere 6.5 projects that I wanted to open/import.
    When I first tried this, I could open the ppj files and make prproj files from them, either by double-clicking on the ppj file name or by importing the ppj in to a new prproj, but the video files within the ppj didn't import properly. Premiere Pro CS5 said, "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match the original file's type (audio and video)." These video files are paired avi and wav files captured from mini-DV tape using Premiere 6.5 under Windows XP Pro. A sample check of one of my avi files with GSpot includes these results:
    The codec section says (among other stuff)
         codec: dvsd
         Name: DVC/DV Video
         Status: Codec(s) are Installed
    The container section says
         File length correct
         DV Type 2 AVI
         OpenDML (AVI v2.0)
         DV Audio/Video: 748 MB (97.63%)
         AVI Overhead: 18.1 MB (2.37%)
    When I tried more recently, Premiere CS5 does not include ppj under "All Supported Media" in the import dialogue box. I can open Bridge from Premiere and browse to a ppj file, but when I double-click the file name, I get the error message, "File format not supported." If I try to open the ppj directly rather than import it, instead of trying to run a conversion as it did initially, Premiere CS5 gives me the welcome to Adobe Premiere Pro popup without actually doing anything w/ the ppj. I'm not sure whether a Premiere update ran between the first and more recent attempts to import ppj files, but I now have version 5.0.3.
    Does anyone have suggestions for how to make this work?
    Thanks.

    I had the same problem with an old ppj project.
    The option to import was available pbut CS5 would crash when import was invoked.
    There was an error message about video filters.
    Adobe help line, over the course of an hour, tried to make me believe that this was related to the 64 bit vs 32 bit issues.
    Then I pointed out to them that the application was able to read the .avi file and play it if I imported it by itself without trying to import the whole project.
    I also mentioned that deleting the previews made no difference.
    At the end of the hour, they agreed to look at the project file. This was two weeks ago and this is the last time that I heard from them. When I ftp'ed the file to them they confirmed the following which I also told them; this is a separate problem from the import problem, but it is related to the support of this software. The automatic updates to the program cause Adobe .ppj import options to disappear from the import menu file type list. Again, they confirmed this and I had to unistall the whole package, reinstall Adobe, and not accept any updates.
    I have yet to hear from Adobe on this. I suspect this is such a rare need that they feel they don't need to support it, but this being the case I think the doofs ought to take the feature out of the advertising list, or provide a stand alone utility to translate the text .ppj into a .prpj compatible project. It's not very difficult.
    The most disturbing thing is that they obviously fail to do a thorough regression test prior to publishing updates. Basic features that are advertised are failing.
    THE SOLUTION (for my case)
    Of course, the reason I wanted to import the project was because there was aOne of the key reasons to stay with Premiere is that I am used to it and want compatibility, as the others in this post also would like.
    Besides Adobe being of no help at all, I have found a workaround. As you all know the ppj file is a text file with headers in [ ] brackets. This file contained some headers which did not appear in .prpj created projects and this was due to some special effects add-ins which were bundled with the video card I installed in the old system.
    By removing the special effects using the old version of Premiere installed on a 32 bit system, I was able to import all the clips with the NLE cuts as I intended, and continue from there in CS5.
    I hope this is a viable workaround for some.
    I do not know if Adobe plans to continue to support the import feature, but they ought to update their docs. It does not work.
