Apple Startup Audio File Location

Where is the audio file that is used when starting up? I would like to change the audio file, of me singing the Opera, instead of the infamous Apple startup sound. Any ideas?

The normal startup chime is in the computer's firmware, not on the hard drive, and cannot be changed by customers.

  • How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail

    How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail?
    My computer is Windows 7 and my Itunes software version is 1.0.2
    Many thanks in advance...

    iTunes 1.0.2 is +at least+ eight years old.
    The current version is 9.2, and it's free.
    If that was a typo, and you're using something more current:
    In the iTunes preferences, change the import settings to mp3.
    Then select the songs you wish to convert.
    From the "Advanced" menu, choose "Create mp3 version".
    When done, change the import settings back to Apple Lossless.
    That's it.
    BTW, this is the Logic Pro forum, which has absolutely nothing to do with iTunes.

  • Audio file location

    i'm coming over from slotools so i am used to how digi handles the audio file locations on import by placing them in the audio folder attatched to the session. when i import audio files it seems to reference them? instead of putting them in the audio files folder like digi. how do i change this or get the files to one folder not scattered on my drives with out screwing up my session.
    thanks

    John mentioned the "Save as Project" command, which is the propper way to do it
    If you are new to Logic and not familiar with the way it handles files, check out my free pdf Personal Manuals. I use a lot of graphics and screenshots to explain the "Logic-way" of doing things.
    Go to:

  • Where are the audio files located?

    You know how when your video source is missing, it shows that ! with a yellow triangle around it? Then, when you hover over the !, it shows you where iMovie expected to find the video, and then you can just move the video there and it's fixed. But for audio, it doesn't show you where it is supposed to be located when you hover over the ! in the audio file (music green bar).
    So, where are the music files supposed to be located so that it can find them?
    Thanks!

    To the best of my knowledge, iMovie simply links to the music file from wherever it is located in your system. That could be the iTunes Library, your Desktop, an external drive, or other places. So if you move the music to a different location, I assume that iMovie will lose track of it. iMovie doesn't actually import the music to the project - it's just referencing it (as far as I'm aware).
    If you know the name of the track (or tracks, or artists), try doing a search both within iTunes and on your hard drive using Spotlight. If found, the best solution is probably to drag it again into your project, then do the necessary edits if applicable.
    Note that, in iMovie the music tracks are identified by song name - it's shown at the beginning of the green audio bar. So the songs shouldn't be too difficult to track down. It's just a pain having to re-instate them.

  • Where are the FCPx and iMovie audio files located in fcpx 10.1

    I updated to FCPx 10.1 a couple days ago and have now realized that none of the FCPX or iMovie audio files are showing up under the Music and Sound button. Does anyone know where they've run off to?

  • ACE Startup-config file location

    Hello,
    I was reading the ACE docs and it sounds like the startup-config file should be listed under disk0: but I don't see it there. Can someone point out where the startup-config file is.
    Thanks
    Mike

    Hi MICHAEL,
    Upon startup, the ACE loads the startup-configuration file stored in Flash memory (nonvolatile memory) to the running-configuration file stored in RAM (volatile memory). When you partition your ACE into multiple contexts, each context contains its own startup-configuration file.
    Flash memory stores the startup-configuration files for each existing context. When you create a new context, the ACE creates a new context directory in Flash memory to store the context-specific startup-configuration files. When you copy a configuration file from the ACE, you create a copy of the configuration information of the context from where you executed the command.
    To display the directory contents of a specified file system, use the dir command in Exec mode. This command displays a detailed list of directories and files contained within the specified file system on the ACE, including names, sizes, and time created. You may optionally specify the name of a directory to list.
    The syntax for this command is:
    dir {core: | disk0:[directory/][filename] | image:[filename] | probe:[filename] | volatile:[filename]}
    The keywords and arguments are:
    •core:-Displays the contents of the core: file system.
    •disk0:-Displays the contents of the disk0: file system.
    •image:-Displays the contents of the image: file system.
    •probe:-Displays the contents of the probe: file system. This directory contains the Cisco-supplied scripts. For more information about these scripts, see the Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine Appliance Server Load-Balancing Configuration Guide.
    •volatile:-Displays the contents of the volatile: file system.
    •directory/-(Optional) Contents of the specified directory.
    •filename-(Optional) Information that relates to the specified file, such as the file size and the date it was created. You can use wildcards in the filename. A wildcard character (*) matches all patterns. Strings after a wildcard are ignored.
    For example, to list the files in the disk0: file system, enter:
    host1/Admin# dir disk0:
    host/Admin# dir disk0:

  • Changing audio file locations within I-tunes

    How can I move files out of the music folder and into the audio books folder within the library?
    Specifically, I purchased several MLK and JFK speech files. Most appear in the music list, although a couple appear in the audiobook list. I would like them all to appear in the audio book list. If I attempt to drag and drop it doesn't work despite the fact that the computer indicates this is possible.
    Any ideas? Thank you.

    Julio
    Julio, it works, but the files marked as AUDIOBOOK disappear and don't appear in an AudioBooks folder, nor can they be found with "Search"
    Try it, put an MP3 file into iTunes, use the procedure to mark it as an Audiobook, then try to find it.
    Is there supposed to be an AudioBook folder, like there is Music, Movies, Podcasts? in iTunes?

  • Apple loops audio files wont play

    I can listen to previews of the loops but when I drag them to the arrange area, I hear nothing. I can see that they are working but cant hear anything. The green instrument apple loops work fine, its only the blue ones that dont work. I also cant hear anything that has been recorded using a usb mic. I have everything set up the way the manual tells me too, and it will record and I can see that it is playing i just cant hear it. How do I fix this problem. I have Logic Pro 9 and Snow Leopard.

    I have not changed any settings on my own as I am very new to the whole music recording thing and have no idea how to get technical. All I have done is installed the program and followed the "try this" in the getting started manual. It seemed to work just fine the first time I put something together. I restarted my computer because it was seeming extraordinarily slow. When I reopened logic and attempted to create another beat only the green loops could be heard. Although you could see the meters moving on the blue ones no sound could be heard through either the built in speakers or headphones as I tried both. I can still click on the blue loops while they are in the loops library and I hear them just fine. As soon as they are dragged into the arrange area, I hear nothing.

  • Audible player audio file locations on Nokia E90 S...

    Can anyone tell me where the audible player is installed on my E90 and where the audible files will need to be placed to make it work? I am moving my cards from a Windows Mobile PC TyTn II to the Nokia E90.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    AUDIOBOOKS:
    Actually, the Nokia audiobook player IS DIFFERENT FROM AUDIBLE PLAYER. Audiobook player is a utility which prepares and then plays mp3 files (and a special compressed and indexed "awb" format for speech). The audiobook player is used for litening to FREE BOOKS. The link to the download is found here:
    http://nokia-audiobooks.en.softonic.com/symbian
    The books it plays are here:
    http://librivox.org/
    So the audiobook files need to be prepared and indexed with the utility. They create a special subdirectory with modified copied mp3 files and an index which allows them to play. The top directory is "audiblebooks". Inside that see a directory for each book such as "Einstein" etc. Inside the "Einstein" directory see a series of "chapter-name.awb" files and an "index-name.inx" file. To make he software work in Windows XP I had to expand the download file and then run Lame (the converter for mp3) then run the audible book program file from inside the same directory which I expanded the compressed file into. After that, it took me quite a while to realise that I needed to file in the "name of book" entry box otherwise I could not process the files. Finally, I copied the created directory into the phone's micro_SD card. It works well.
    AUDIBLE:
    So here is the confusion. AUDIBLE BOOKS are quite different. These books ARE NOT FREE (but they are better). They are "*.aa" files and are in the directory called "audible". I can see a similar directory on the phone memory but it is empty. I must have changed the setting to make the directory be on the root on the 4 GB card I have. In the past I had a Windows Mobile (TyTN II by HTC) and in that device I recall the audible book files were required to be in the "program files/audible" directory with the programs. At least I could not figure out how to move them around. On the E90's S60 system, the audible sound files directory is merely called "audible" but is in the root of the card.
    To install the Audible book player you must have the phone connected and choose device manager from the top menu of your Windows interface (audible manager). Then choose Phone and Nokia. E90 may not be listed so try E50 or E60. It will download into the phone. After that you need to activate it as the default player. During the activation it may have been that the phone needed to be disconnected and make its own internet connection rather than go through the PC.
    If you get stuck then audible support is very good. I called them and did it live from Australia.
    Currently it is working well. .

  • File Not Found bug with long audio file names?

    Hello -
    Crazy problem. I'll probably post way too much information, but I want to make sure I cover everything. Help!
    We run Logic Studio/Logic 8 on multiple 10.4.10/11 computers - G5 Power PC, new intel iMac, intel mini, G4 laptops. We are working on an audio post job using very messy OMFs that were prepared in Final Cut. We had problems opening them in Logic, so we opened the OMFs in Soundtrack Pro, exported to AAFs, and opened those in Logic.
    The sessions look fine in Logic now (all files relinked), and the session is consolidated - ie, all files are local/in the project folder's Audio Files folder. I see this in the Audio Bin and can confirm in the finder.
    Here's the problem. With the sessions closed:
    (A) I renamed the project folder by adding an asterix to the front of the folder name, and changed the color label of the folder in the finder in order to mark it as the original folder.
    (B) I made a copy of the whole folder (session files & audio files) in order to have something to work from and not mess up the original. When I opened up the session in the new folder, it immediately said audio file not found, do you want to search, locate, or skip. It couldn't find the file in a search, and obviously when you skip, then skip, then skip all, it opens the session with the data (regions are there but grayed) - so all the audio files are orphaned.
    So when I try to locate the file, here's what happens. . . The audio file names are really horrendously long (must be some artifact of working in Final Cut). We're talking: "1087-001A SERG AIRPORT WAITING * 1-1channel_00044D02AA9- 363A-4CC5-A86B-0741023DB062.aif" - one bazillion characters.
    So the audio file locate dialog box truncates the name of the file that's missing by using the first 20 characters or so, and then a "#" character, and then some random string of 3-6 characters that is not at all related to the file name. So who knows which of the 4-30 SERG AIRPORT files is supposed to go there!
    Obviously if this were a 2 minute session file of 10 files or something, we could figure it out and relink everything, but we're talking about a feature-length session with a bazillion files.
    (C) Okay, so I tried to open the original session, in the folder that I had renamed by prefacing the original name with an * and changing the color of the folder. But I started to get the file not found errors. OH GEEZ. So I didn't save. I re-renamed the folder by taking out the * and changing the color label back. Then I tried to open the session again, but I still kept getting the file not found problem.
    I have to stress that I didn't move any of the audio files, or change ANYTHING in the session.
    So I thought - is all of this because I tried to open a new instance of the session, in a new instance of the folder? Is it because I renamed the folders? Normally you can rename folders, even session names, no problems, and Logic corrects the paths to the audio files!
    (D) So, crap. I reopened the original AAF file in logic and saved it in a new place. I closed the file, reopened it, closed, reopened, just to make sure everything was working! I checked the location of the files in the audio bin, and everything was great.
    (E) So now I copied the folders to an external hard drive to be able to work on another computer. But when I tried to open the sessions on a new computer. . . You guessed it, nada.
    So. . . the questions are:
    (1) Those original sessions that now will not work - is there anything I can do to recover their functionality? We had work in there that I would prefer not to lose. . .
    (2) Is this a known bug having to do with the length of the Audio File names?
    (3) How do we get over this? My only idea so far is we could select all in a working logic session and say "Audio Tracks names to regions" or something and will that change the actual file names on teh computer? Then hopefully things would work on mulitple systems. . .
    Okay. HELP! Thanks!
    Polly

    OK I got it.
    It is necessary to use prefix "file:///" before file name.
    Thanx everyway.

  • How to trigger an audio file using midi...

    I'm trying to use the Apple AU Audio File Player to play a 10 second track that's an intro to one of our songs, but the only things that show up under the Parameter Mappings for that channel (the one that the AU Audio File Player is assigned to) are MIDI notes, and none of the midi notes trigger playing the audio file. Is there something I'm missing? Is there any way in Main Stage to play an audio file using a midi trigger?

    seems not a good question

  • Cannot Save my Audio Files as Apple Loops in Logic 8

    Everytime I click save it says "Check Destinations drive available Space".
    This happens EVERY TIME I try to save one of my own audio file as an Apple Loop!
    "Save As" works fine. Im not the only person asking this... Anyone? Appreciate any help...

    I just checked this on my older PPC (Dual 2 G5) system, as I thought it was still working... Well, yep, it is working on that system, but not on either of my Intel Logic rigs (Macbook Pro and Jan08 8 core).

  • How do I play a video and audio file at the same time on Apple Tv?

    I need to play a video loop (with no audio) on my apple tv and also play some music in the background. Its a video loop with no audio and then I need music to play in the background. The loop needs to repeat all day because its only 5 min long and the audio is an entire play list that's several hours. This is for a lobby flat screen setup.

    QuickTimeKirk wrote:
    Very difficult request because the Apple TV can only play one file at a time. It doesn't have a "loop" feature.
    You could use QuickTime Player Pro to "join" the audio files into one file. The hard part would be adding the five minute video chunks via copy/paste as each would be added as a new "video" track. QuickTime .mov files can have up to 99 "tracks" and the .mov container is supported by Apple TV.
    So this new file would have a new video track (actually just a copy of the original) that played up to 98 times. A five minute source video would end up being a bit over 8 hours in duration.
    The 98 track video could be "flattened" into one video track via export. The same for the audio track movie.
    Other options:
    Set the Quicktime Loop flag in the movie inspector properties.
    Make a video playlist, adding the file to the playlist lots of times - make sure playlists are enabled in Settings for video not just music.

  • Playing an audio file in a certain location

    Hi Everyone...
    I would like to play an audio file (edc.caf) that is located in this directory....
    /DCIM/TONY/IOW/AUDIO
    When i run it through the NSURL processor....
    [code]
    NSURL *soundFileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:soundFilePath];
    [code]
    the resulting value of soundFileURL is
    file://localhost/DCIM/TONY/IOW/AUDIO/edc.caf
    But i do not hear any audio out of the iPod touch.
    I've tried two different methods of playing the audio,
    and both are failing.
    I know the audio is being recorded, as i can bring it back to the PC and play them fine.
    My initial thoughts are that i cannot find location of the file, but i am not sure.
    Can anyone confirm the location is correct???
    thanks
    tony

    Small edit....
    the resulting value is a little different than what i posted....
    the actual string is...
    file://localhost/var/mobile/Media/DCIM/TONY/AUDIO/edc.caf
    Sorry about the confusion
