Are FREE music Podcasts Legal?

Hello.
I love my free music podcasts, but this was from another person on another chat below. Please tell me why podcasts are legal. thanks
"Ethics?...schmethics!
The artist gave it his/her/their all while creating their copywritten creations. Why not give 'em your all? Why gloat about how you can "legally" get around paying them what they (and their efforts are worth). Then again, from day one, I've never adopted the "napster-esque" mindset.
If downloading is free, then why not call it for what it is:
FREELOADING."

What is it you are talking about? Are you putting together Podcasts made up of other people's songs where you do not have permission from the copyright holder to distribute them in a Podcast?
If this is the case, then I believe (I am not a lawyer) this is a violation of copyright law as you are distributing copyright works without permission of the copyright holder.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

Hi Christoffer,
Thanks for the reply, excellent information! I was a bit struggling with the availability of the tokenGroups attribute, but your info makes it pretty clear.
Do you also happen to have experience with the LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAIN method to retrieve nested groups? It seems to perform pretty well, retrieves all nested groups using the memberOf attribute and works on all AD environments (W2K3 SP2 or higher).
Richard Mueller did a performance test using both methods:

Are Soundbooth music and scores free for personal use withut license

Using Soundbooth in CS5. Wondering if Scores and music are free to use without license or does Adobe have all rights to music within Soundbooth Software.

I also know that iWeb is only html, css and js based, but I want to add my own personal stuff that it is not related to apple that will run other things. I am not sure if this will violate apples terms however.
I'm puzzled why you think your modifying the html and other code produced by iweb might possibly violate anything. Is there any other web editing software which imposes such restrictions? If so, I would be curious which ones do that.
I think there are several people in this forum who have used iweb to create some basic code and then used Dreamweaver and other apps to add advanced features they wanted for uploading to non-.Mac server.

IPod Touch 4G won't sync new apps on 2nd authorized computer, but WILL sync music, podcasts, etc.

Hello.
Everywhere I've read about apps not syncing to the iPod touch while using iTunes on a second authorized computer have mentioned that they could sync nothing to the device. Yet I have a different problem, one where I have no problem syncing new music, podcasts, pictures, etc., and only new apps refuse to sync to the device.
I recently purchased a new iPod Touch 4G. My computer being away for repairs at the time that I bought it, I synced only podcasts, apps, pictures, and video to the device using a friend's computer under a different Apple ID. When I first synced it, I authorized that computer with the device, and it mentioned you could sync the device with up to 5 computers, so I figured I would have no problem when I got my own computer back.
Having now received my computer back, I connected my new iPod touch to my own iTunes under my Apple ID and authorized my computer as the second authorized computer. These are the only two computers I have ever synced the device with.
I copied my music library, more pictures, and more podcasts to the device with no problems, and they play/show on the device no problem. Also, I can still access and use all the content previously on my iPod.
I have downloaded a few new free apps that I wanted to sync to my iPod using my computer, but when I go to sync them to my iPod, they won't sync to the device. I have downloaded all the apps I had originally put on my iPod using my friends computer so that I would receive updates for the apps automatically. I have not tried to sync these, though I have (or iTunes at least is telling me I have) synced any updates that have since come up for the apps already on my iPod.
I have tried clicking and dragging the new apps from the apps tab over to the device tab, and iTunes shows them syncing, and to the best of my knowledge, shows that it has finished syncing them. It also shows that it has completely synced all the new apps when I try syncing on the apps tab under the device tab (the one that shows up when you click on the tab for your iPod, and is next to Summary, Pictures, Video, etc.). I have all the boxes checked off, and the boxes next to all the apps are checked off as if they're on my iPod, but they don't show up on the screen display next to it. When I click and drag the new apps over so they appear and click "apply," iTunes shows that it has completed the syncing process, but the apps won't show up on my iPod, and disappear from the sceen display on the device apps tab the next time I sync my iPod.
I have the latest version of iTunes, and have downloaded all updates for it. My iPod's less than a month old, so I don't think there's any updates for the iPod itself.
I also currently don't have the ability to sync over wi-fi, or have wi-fi access on my iPod at home, though I could set it up if it would fix the problem. Right now, I'm only syncing my iPod using usb and iTunes.
I would prefer, if possible, not to have to restore the iPod to factory settings, and begin anew. However, if this is necessary, any help on how to restore the iPod and back it up would be much appreciated.
Any help you can give is awesome.
Thank you for your time.

Hey, I'm probably too late and you may have already solved it but here's a solution. In iTunes go to Edit then preferences and then click on reset dialog warnings. What happens is when you first sync your ipod, you receive a message saying something like transfer?and you've probably selected "Do not show this message again". I don't really know why but iTunes assumes that the apps on your iPod are already on your computer and therefore need no transferring.
After you've reset it, the same message should pop up about transferring. As long as you don't click don't show, you should be good to go.

2nd gen shuffle suddenly wont play music podcasts

Recently my 2nd generation iPod shuffle suddenly won't play some of my music podcasts.
It might have been after upgrading to iTunes 10.2.2 (12) that this started happening.
It still plays one of my other podcasts on it, but it's not playing the music ones, which is
what I use the shuffle for (running to podcasts on the treadmill). Please help!
The podcasts it suddenly won't play are ones it has played in the past. The shuffle is
having trouble reading them I think. But then, maybe it has something to do with the
permissions on the podcasts? I don't know. They are all free ones. I tried finding some
new ones to use, but the shuffle won't play them either. They are playing fine in iTunes,
and they sync to the shuffle seemingly without problem.
When I try to advance the shuffle to the next track, it won't do so, it simply won't play
some of these podcasts.
Help would be much appreciated.
Travis

oops problem solved. found this after doing a bit more research.
The iPod shuffle won't play podcasts if it's in shuffle mode, it has to be switched to linear mode.
I switched mine to linear mode and voila, it works. I must have accidentally switched it to shuffle
mode without realizing. Now all my podcasts are playing fine. yay.

I have the mac laptop ibook g4,and i wanted to know what music downloader can i download to get free music besides having to use itunes?

I have the ibook g4 laptop! what music downloader can i download to get free music?,so i want have to use itunes.

Given the OS X versions last supported by the old PowerPC based G4/G5 computers, there are a few players that work with music sites for OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8. I have not researched these, and many of the web sites that promise a free player or access to free music offer 'adware' laden questionable products, no matter what OS X version a Mac could run.
For just music, the Radio player in the iTunes application can give you several choices of music types, to include fairly recent songs. This will use bandwidth and there likely is no native way in the computer to capture the audio; and without a legal source, a question arises concerning illegal filesharing and the like, which is not a topic friendly to these discussions.
However there some great music channels in the Radio portion of iTunes player that do not require the store to listen to them; these are streamed from servers and you may be able to locate other streaminsg sources and add them to the iTunes Radio player.
There were some shareware or limited use utilities that could record any sounds in your Mac, including beeps, clicks and keyboard sounds. And any noises from web pages, etc. And save them. But some time has passed since I had anything like that. It was like a built-in recorder, and with a Mac microphone, even more so.
However anything software involves the limitations of your computer hardware's upper limit in OS X version. And be wary of sites with several download links that say free or download, since softonic genieo and others can install adware and other hard to remove ailment prone background software in your mac along with their promised product; and their 'uninstaller' also will add hard to remove background stuff in your mac. So does mackeeper and cleanmypc kinds of stuff. Avoid installing these along with hoped-for great promises.
Sorry to not be of much help, however anything that may
contribute to illegal file sharing is a void issue here...
Good luck & happy computing!

My ipod wont search on any free music apps but everything else searches fine

I had a free music app where i would search dor the music to download it. But today my ipod 5 (ios 8) wouldnt search for any music but everythint else influding safari, app store, youtube, all searched like normal. The app i used before i deleted because of the problem would just crash at start up too. So now i have no music and i would like to not have to pay for all my songs. Plz help. Also idk if this is significant to the problem but at one point the ipod wasnt charging. It is charging now though. Its acting strangely.

For strange acting iPod
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

IPhone 4 - iPod app plays music/podcasts with reverb - How do I make it stop?

Hello!
Recently, when I play music or podcasts from my iPhone 4, whether into headphones, from the phone itself, or connected to speakers, it plays it with a sort of echo or reverb.
It does not do this when I am on speaker phone.
I can't think of what could be causing this, but I use my iPod often, especially in my car on the long drive to and from work.
It's kind of creepy sometimes, depending on what's playing, not to mention, just annoying that it's happening in the first place.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this, and how it can be fixed?

CORRECTION:
After Apple gave me a new phone, it worked fine for a while, then the problem started again once I plugged it into the Aux input in my car. I unplugged it, and tested the phone by itself, still did it. But only on podcasts.
My husband did some more research and corrected the problem. Here's what was happening:
When you play podcasts, and you're in the "now playing" screen that's a translucent black, shows volume, where you're at in the podcast, etc. In the upper right corner of this screen, there is a little white box that says "1x". Touching this box will allow you to change the speed of the podcast (I guess some people are such avid podcast listeners, that it saves them time to listen to it faster). I had coincidentally and unknowingly changed the speed of the podcast to "1.1x" which just made it sound funny, not faster.
He changed it back to "1x", and everything is now hunky dory! But thanks for the new phone, Apple! Just wanted to clear that up. Sorry for the confusion.

Can you identify which of your iOS Apps are free?

I have a few hundred apps now in my iTunes library, and would like to identify which ones are free vs which ones cost money.
Both my iPhone and my wife's are currently tied to the same iTunes account. I want to create a new acount for her, but don't want her to lose all the purchased apps she uses.
For music/movies/tv shows, I know I can authorize play on her new machine, but I don't believe you can for the apps...or at least she won't be able to download updates for them without logging out and logging into the old account.
Any ideas?
thanks

Hello,
Just other users here like yourself, so Apple will not likely respond here, you need to contact them by other means.

How do I find/upgrade to DRM free Music from EMI

I just read that EMI and Apple have agree to sell DRM free music at a higher quality for $1.29. iTune purchased songs from EMI can also be upgraded to DRM free tracks at $0.30 each. The problem is where do I find them? I can't seem to find search EMI Records on iTune. Is there an easy and fast way to upgrade all my tracks from EMI?

According to the original announcement the new downloads are scheduled for release sometime this month. If everything goes according to plan I would expect they should be available from the iTunes Stores in the next few weeks: Apple Unveils Higher Quality DRM-Free Music on the iTunes Store

Good afternoon, my name is mike Perreault, on 9-28-13 I was looking for a free music app and I must have touch an ad about iTunes Radio because I was charged 20.20 on my acc", could please tell why and credit back on my acc.

Good afternoon, my name is mike Perreault , on 9-28-13 I looked for a free music app., I don't know what happen but my credit card was charged $20.20, please tell me why and credit my acc. Because I didn't purchase anything from iTunes .
Sincerely ,

Please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. Most of the people who will reply to your posts are, like me, your fellow users.
As to your issue, first, make sure that you did not inadvertently make an in-app purchase. Many apps, particularly games, are free for the base game but charge for additional features such as levels, "coins" and other such add-ons. Check your Purchase History to see if that reminds you as to what you might have purchased:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
If you find that this was an in-app purchase, to prevent this from happening again, turn off "In App purchases" in the Restrictions settings on your device. For more information, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
As to a refund, that's not automatic since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
They're usually pretty lenient in the case of inadvertent purchases, but there are no guarantees.
If the charge was not an in-app purchase that you made and forgot but the charges do appear in your Purchase History, contact the iTunes Store and let them know. You should also immediately change your password for your Apple ID. If the charges don't appear in your Purchase History, they were probably fake charges made directly to your credit card, and your card issuer will need to handle those.
Regards.

Why their is no free music

I need free music or sync it to iPad

Free tracks are not available in the iTunes Store in all countries (Apple doesn't have licensing to sell music at all in a number of countries). If you'll tell us what country you're in, we can perhaps provide additional information.
Regards.

All of the free music that comes with iMovie is suddenly missing. How do I get it back?

I wanted to start a new project in iMovie, and I realized all of the iLife music is gone. I'm not talking about my iTunes songs, which are all there. I'm talking about the free music that comes with iMovie/iLife. I used some of the music in a previous project, and that still plays, but I can't access the music anymore from the music tab.
The iLife sound effects are still there, but all the music is gone.
Please help.

I can't see any folder called 'iLife Sound Effects'. Also, I cant find any jungles when I search jingles. But, I can get jingles in iMovie (I can't seem to find them on garageband)
See the following screenshot from GarageBand - firstly click on Apple Loops in the top right corner, then on Jingles in the listing of items that appear below that. You should now see all the Jingles in the panel at the bottom right of the window.
Hope this works for you!

Royalty free music is not syncing with FCP? HELP!!!

Hey Everyone,
So this is an odd one. I've stepped in to help a friend who can't get the audio to line up from Royalty Free Music to sync with the video timeline of his project. It's a ballroom workout dvd where it's all one take. They used the mp3's downloaded from Royalty free Music.com and imported them into the timeline. What's odd is the tempo goes in and out of time with the dancer (who certainly isn't the issue with tempo). So it seems as if the tempo speeds up some and then is a little slower. They filmed this with only her mic on, and the dancer listening to a Sansa mp3 player.
My first fix was to convert all mp3's in QT to AIFF files. When I relined them up...same issue. One song would seem a little more in tempo, then another would seem off.
I would have also thought perhaps a processor issue on their Mac. Same issue with my PowerMAc and MacBook Pro. So I don't think that's it.... WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON!!!???
Please help...thanks!

Hi -
The weak link in all of this appears to me to be the Sansa Mp3 player. It was not designed, nor should it have been, to maintain accurate speed playback. It is highly likely it was speed drifting during the duration of the playback. Even if it is 99% accurate, it would still be a second out of sync for every 100 seconds of playing - which is very apparent of syncing dance moves.
If you have ever seen or participated in a professional production in which music playback is an essential part, you will see the great lengths taken to preserve sync on the set and in the edit bay = with specialized audio playback devices that lock to the camera.
Also, I assuming that the talent listened to the Mp3 player with in ear headphones while the microphone was left open to record voice, so that you do not have a recording of the music in the clear to use in the edit and must use the sound files.
Two suggestions:
1) If the Sansa Mp3 player still has the material on it, hook it up to a camera and record the player playing the music to videotape. If you are very lucky, the player may playback in a similar way (with similar drifts in speed) to when it played back to the shoot. Digitize that video tape and see if the audio syncs any better. Most likely it won't, but this is worth a try and can be done fairly easily and is worth a shot.
2) Manually sync the head of each song, then see how far off it is at the end. You can adjust the playing speed of the sound file in FCP (with the new speed change window, you can just enter a new duration) and you will have to go through and keep adjusting until you get an acceptable level of sync. If the songs were crossfaded, you will need to establish sync then re-do the cross fades between the correctly synced tracks.
Hope this helps.
