Audio is shorter and doesn't sync

I have a video, and when I import it in Premiere (or After Effects), the audio is shorter than video, and therefore of course out of sync.
When I play it on VLC, it is correct, everything syncs. I had tried to re-encode it, but nothing has changed. (Also tried the VideoReDo program - as mentioned on another forum - to fix this, but there is the same result.)
Btw, I don't have to make a timeline, it's enough if I just double-click on the clip (in Premiere) and play it. The audio doesn't sync.

  • Audio cut out and midi miss sync

    Lately I have been getting audio cut out, and the missing, 'error while trying to sync audio and midi'.
    I thought it was that I had too many instances of virtual instruments. So I mixed the song down. Imported that into a NEW song, with only one audio track, and then proceeded to try to do an organ overdub...Well Logic still drops out and gives me the message, even though there is NO midi information in this file...
    Then I noticed that even AIF or mp3 files, didn't play properly from the desktop preview mode. They stop too. Activity monitor doesn't seem to be showing anything overworking..
    Disk Warrior fixed some volume errors,
    Anyone have any ideas to try?

    I'm using a motu828. I disconnected the firewire connection, and ran audio from the headphone jack to the motu, and VOILA, no problems... Last year, I went thru two motu units, not really sure if they are the issue.
    I think it might be LOGIC's firewire circuitry. Apple techs couldn't find the issue, I had the G5 motherboard replaced. Another factor was I had 3 Lacie firewire drives (2 firewire 800, 1 400) I have had 4 Lacie drives die on me in the last 3 years. They are the only firewire drives I have, so I don't know if the fault lies with them, or the again Apples firewire circuitry, stressing the drives out???
    I also put a firewire 800 card in my system.
    I have now switched to an external ESATA raid setup. No more firewire drives. So far so good. Since I had the whole motherboard replaced, I don't know what that means in terms of MOTU connected via firewire..
    For now, I'm running audio out of headphone jack, using all virtual instruments, so I know it will sound better when I get firewire audio up and running, but I got tired of it cutting out every 3 - 30 minutes. I'm thinking about the apogee duet unit. But again if it's connected via firewire, I don't know where that leaves me..
    My G5 is three and half years old, perhaps it's tired and wants to be retired....
    The dark part of me wonders, if Apple computers don't start crapping out after three years of heavy use, or is it that technology, software, updates, push the hardware beyond it's capacity after a few years.

  • Audio goes in and out of sync when burned dvd played on standard DVD player

    I made a short film recently (7:00 mins) and once completed and burned to DVD using iDVD and DVD Studio Pro about 20% of the clips have out of sync audio. Just slightly out of sync. Some more noticeable than others.
    Playing off the timeline syncs perfect, the exported prores 422 mov file syncs perfectly, and if the finished DVD is played on my mac or my pc the sync is perfect, but when played on a standard dvd player to my TV I get the syncing problem, but only at certain points through the film. As I said, about 20% of it. The rest of the film is fine.
    Shot on Canon 5d mkII - footage converted to prores 422 1920x1080. Audio recorded on Zoom H4N with some ADR recorded on logic pro. Audio synced manually using clapper board reference. Using a 27'iMac with current OSX update as of 14 March 2011. Edited in FCP 7, exported to proress 422, burned to DVD with current iDVD and DVD Studio Pro, all current versions and updates.
    I have tried exporting to mpg4 and mpg2 - no joy. I checked audio bit rates and discovered the logic recorded stuff was 44.1khz as opposed to 48, so I converted to 48 but still no fix.
    I am STUMPPED
    Any suggestions?
    Cheers
    Dallas

    Should I convert just the clips which are out of sync in the DVD, or all of theclips in the FCP timeline?
    If that is the issue, wouldn't I have the problem in the final prores mov as opposed to just when its played dvd to tv?
    Ill try it though. Its an odd problem so its likely to have an odd solution. Willing to try anything at this point.
    Thank you.

  • When syncing my iphone using USB it lingers on "step 5: Waiting for changes to be applied" and then stops and doesn't sync my music

    When I try to sync my phone with the iTunes as I have in the past, the "sync animation" happens on my iPhone but it doesn't sync the music that I've manually added and deleted. I've used the same setup in the past so I'm not sure what is going on. Also, it takes quite a while for the sync sequence to run -- it lingers on step 5

    I had this problem - was driving me crazy. I tried many things including restores etc. The following solved it:
    Go into iTunes
    Open up your new iPhone on the tab in the top right corner
    In the Summary box - simply unclick "Sync only checked songs and videos"
    Click apply
    Then I was fixed!
    Good luck

  • Ipod Mini starts to sync then stops after a few songs and doesn't sync

    It has been about a year since I synced my iPod mini (Generation One) with my G3 PowerBook Pismo. I have been using it with no problems but I wanted to ad new songs. I went to sync it and it wanted to update. I am on the latest iTunes. After the iPod updated it would start to sync get to song 7 and just stop syncing. I have to pull the iPod off and there is nothing on it. I have restored the iPod Mini several time. I even tried going back to the orginal disk. Nothing helps. I tried to repair disk permissions in Disk Utilities and that gets about half way through then has an error. I have to quit this operation and can't repair the permissions. Could these be related. I am not a mac doof but I feel like one.
    Thanks for any help!!!

    Try taking it into an Apple store, it sounds like a HD problem, or something. If you've tried to restore it, and that hasn't worked, taking it in is probably your best bet.

  • Once my ipod is connected, it disconnects and doesn't sync anything

    I have an 80GB classic ipod; one of the older generations, not sure of the exact one. When I connect to my iTunes, it makes the connecting noise, but immediately says on the ipod I may eject it and does not sync anything. In the past, I have tried mutiple times and then randomly it will work once, but do I have to do that again for it to sync music or is it tiem for a new ipod? Anyone else have this issue? Thank you

  • Audio from imported video doesn't sync with mp3 audio imported

    I thought I had a neat way to easily "back up" my audio of an event by using an mp3 recorder on the podium to capture speaker and just recording with on-cam mic at the camcorder, so not to have to mess with wireless mics and jack connections on the camcorder. My thought was that since these are both "digital" recordings of the same event, they would stay in sync. Yet when I put them both in the time line of iMovie, the mp3 sound file does not stay in sync, falling behind. Every sentence or so I have to cut some of the file out to shorten it and bring it back into sync. Any guess why these don't stay in sync?
    PV-GS500 DV tape camcorder, sansa m250 mp3
    Cutting the sound file to keep it in sync worked, and I needed in for an event I just recently did, where the first speaker, who spoke briefly, did not turn on the room mic, and couldn't be heard well by the camera mic. So we now hear perfectly what that first speaker said, but I was disappointed that I had to trim after every sentence to keep the mp3 audio in sync.
    Thanks, Dale

    I'm assuming that you are using the Sound class to control
    the MP3 sounds? If that is the case then they will not be sync with
    your timeline and if your animations are too much for the SWF to
    stay at the 30fps rate then it will slow down to complete the
    animations.
    One way to sync them up would be to place them in a layer in
    your timeline and then in the Parameters box at the bottom set the
    Sync dropdown to Stream.
    Then if your movie slows the audio and animations will still
    be together.
    This is not as flexible as you may currently have it but it
    might work for you.

  • Mail.app got stuck and doesn't sync anymore

    Ok, I'll leave all my comments and the frustration out of this post. As many of other people around I can't get Mail.app sync anymore with GMail server.
    Unsucessfully I tried to remove and create the account, including deleting the account.plist file in the folder (just in case).
    Looking into the console file, I spot this message, that doesn't offer any clue onf what's wrong.
    Mail[7196]: *** -[__NSPlaceholderArray initWithObjects:count:]: attempt to insert nil object from objects[0]
    or
    Mail[7196]: An exception occurred during invocation of -[IMAPMailboxSyncEngine _goWithMessagesIfNeeded:]
    Anybody knows what they are? Any idea how to get this fixed?

  • IPhone 4 isn't recognized as my device and doesn't sync to itunes after a failed software update using itunes

    The title says it all, but today I had the option to update my IPhone 4 through itunes and so I did. After a few minutes as the process was in effect an error popped up and said the update had failed.
    Currently my phone is plugged into the USB port and is showing me a charger pointing to itunes; the complication is that my IPhone is no longer registered in my name and it also isn't sync'ing or being recognized through my itunes.
    I've looked through the support pages and have done as many things as I can find which included:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    I ran the diagnostics and went to this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363?viewlocale=en_US
    None of these actions gave me the answer I needed.
    I've also taken my phone to the nearest AT&T provider and they weren't completely sure what's going on.
    I did realize that I tried to update my IPhone when the itunes wasn't at it's most updated platform.
    Any help would be much appreciated! I'm all out of ideas.

    Hy there,
    First you have to try connecting your device to the computer an then reinstall the drivers by following these steps:
    1'st step is to go into the device manager
    2 step is to go to portable devices (it is rught under network adapters)
    3 step is to right clic apple iphone and click update drivers
    4 step is to brows your drivers from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    After that your itunes must detect your device in DFU mode an you will have to push the restore button and it has to restore.
    Good luck,
    Andrei

  • ITunes can't find apps on iPod Touch and doesn't sync album artwork

    Ugh.  Here I go again.
    I have an iPod Touch (4th gen), 2010 MacBook Pro, all the latest operating systems and updates. 
    My iPod Touch crashed a bit and so I wanted to sync it again (using the USB cable, not wirelessly).
    (1) Suddenly, there was no music on the iPod Touch.  I managed to get that fixed.
    (2) After a couple of syncs, I was repeatedly getting the message that the iPod Touch apps "could not be synced because the apps could not be determined."  A couple of plugging and unpluggings allowed iTunes to "find" the apps, but this is weird.
    (3) And now, what's bugging me -- and this happened a year or so ago -- very little of the album artwork synced over to the iPod Touch.  I have 600-800 albums.  All of the artwork is correct on iTunes.  About 10% of the artwork transferred over to the iPod Touch.  (Then I synced my iPad, and all the artwork is correct on the iPad.)
    If I remember correctly from last year, eventually -- after many successive syncs -- the album artwork made its way correctly over to the iPod Touch, and maybe I'll hope for that this time.
    Does anyone have a more direct solution?  Checking and unchecking some boxes on some syncs?  (It takes a good chunk of time to sync over my music, so I don't really have to time to delete and sync repeatedly just as shots in the dark.
    Any ideas?  All thoughts welcome. Thank you!

    Taking off all the music and then putting it back on took care of the album art, but I'm still getting all kinds of funky behavior -- iTunes can't find the apps, then it can't find the iPod altogether, and it's adding duplicate songs somewhere.  It said it was going to load 3,232 songs, but I ended up with more than 3,400.  Weird.

  • My play count is not recorded and doesn't sync with my last.fm account

    is anyone else having this problem? it's been going on since about january...
    i don't sync my music, i manually drag and drop songs to add them and then simply delete them when i don't want them on my phone anymore.

    Hello james,
    It sounds like you are reaching the limit of authorized computers you can have with your Apple ID. The most you can have is 5 computers authorized, so try authorizing your computer to play your purchases on this computer.
    To authorize a computer using your Apple ID
    Open iTunes
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.
    If needed, you may also deauthorize all the computers that have been authorized with your Apple ID if you need to.
    To deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID
    If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
    Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
    Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).

  • 30 GB becomes 1,008 GB and doesn't sync

    I can't sync my iPod with my iTunes. My son synced my iPod with his iTunes, erasing my music. When I went to sync it to my iTunes, I was told that my iPod was corrupted. I've done all the usual stuff - reset, restore, reboot - and now iTunes says I have 1,008.72 GB capacity. The bar at the bottom says I have 111.63 GB of free space. It says it's syncing, but when I eject my iPod, there's nothing on it. HELP. I've leaving town and need something to dull the mind while flying for 8 hours!!

    This Apple knowledge-base article may help address that issue.

  • Calendar, Contacts and everything PIM freezes and doesn't sync

    Keeps spinning and never syncs anything. Also can not access accounts in settings. That also freezes

    Ok, after many resets and going straight to the accounts tab to try and delete accounts, it finally let me delete facebook. It was facebook that was locking up and now everything is back to working. I re added facebook just a moment ago and so far still working with no problems. Facebook was definitely the problem for me.

  • Icloud and outlook 2010 sync

    Hey there,
    at the office we use outlook 2010 and icloud control panel to sync between our calendars and our iphones to work together. the problem is when we sync outlook calendars with icloud it creates another calendar in outlook (besides the local one).
    so when we get an invitaion through email our local calendar gets it (and doesn't sync with icloud and the iphone)
    and when i add another meeting on my iphone it goes to my icloud calendar in outlook and not to the local one.
    any way to make the local calendar on outlook to be the icloud one? or any way to merge and sync them both?
    anyone?

    iCloud is a seperate account (in Outlook) and it will not be the default account so invitations etc will not go to it.
    The workaround is (a) dump iCloud and use Exchange or (b) dump Outlook.
