Audio won't copy

I just upgraded to 10.4.4 and I am having trouble bacing up and copying .aiff files. I get error messages stating that the file does not exist or the file name id too long. This happens intermitently when I try to back up to external fire wire drives as well as when I try to duplicate audio files on the mac.
After some experimenting I found that if I unplug my iSight camera there is no problem at all.
Does anyone know if there is a fix for this?
I tried removing the iSight file in the library in hopes that it would would replace itself upon reboot but this did not work.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I've seen this problem too, and so has a friend. It appears to be a design issue with the iSight itself. For instance connecting an iPod via Firewire has difficulty when an iSight is connected. Only if you can connect the two devices on separate Firewire buses (only possible on a Powerbook and PowerMac), you pretty much have to temporarily forgoe the use of the iSight while using the external hard drive.

Itunes won't copy over some of my podcasts and purchases since I have moved it to an external hardrive

So I Have moved over all my purchases and everything to an external hardrive. I did everything right and my itunes story works perfectly fine. However one of my podcasts (yugioh the abridged series) won't copy over along to the ipod saying its file type is not supported by the ipod. It only does this with the first 8 episodes (if you find it you will see them) one of which (the bbt movie) worked perfectly fine on my ipod before but now for some reason it won't. It also won't work on a few of the tv shows that are in hd and one music album that had american boy in it. I'm wondering what I can do to solve this problem. My itunes and my computer (windows vista operating system) is up to date and I have an ipod classic with plenty of room what should I do.

This doesn't work. The iOS4 upgrade has wiped out synchronization to Outlook to the phone and back. There are many threads on this here, and Apple has yet to address this issue.

HP Officejet 4620 won't copy or scan but will print

My HP Officejet 4620 all in one printer won't copy or scan, but it will print. When trying to scan, my computer first shows a window "preparing to scan" then it changes to a window "scanner unreachable". When trying to copy the printer indicates "now copying page 1/1" but it never produces a copy. The light never goes across the flat glass, photographing the image to be scanned or copied.

Track names won't copy and can't be found

I burned an album (fleetwood mac) from my old laptop to a disk - all tracks are correctly named. I copy the disk to my new laptop with itunes and my new itouch but the track names won't copy and when I search for them they are not found on itunes. so instead of song titles, I have track 1, track 2, etc on my new laptop even though the cd I burned has the song names. Anyone know what I am doing wrong?
don

Couple ways to do it.
Best way is burn a Data disc. All the info i part of the song file itself and will transfer when you copy the file.
Another way is after you burn the CD in your old computer, select the CD then go to menu Advanced -> *Submit CD track names*.
This will send the info to Gracenote and when you insert the CD on a different computer, iTunes will look it up and put in the correct info.

Win XP Won't install, won't copy system files

I'm putting together an A64 system w/ a WD 36gb raptor on sata1.
I've done all of the things posted on this board (changed bios settings, used the floppies to install the sata drivers during windows setup). Everything is fine up until the xp setup is copying the setup files from the cd. It stops at every other file and says that it can't copy that file. Sometimes I can press enter and it will copy it on the second try but it always stops partway through and won't copy any more files. I've tried 2 different windows xp pro cds, and i know my cd rom drive doesn't have problems reading the files. This has only happened when I swapped out my WD 250gb ata drive for the sata raptor.
My power supplies (came with chieftec case from newegg) settings are as follows (as I've heard this may be a problem):
+3.3V = 22.0a, +5v = 36.0a, +12 = 18a
I'd love any suggestions. I've already flashed the bios to 1.2 and it doesn't seem to help. Thanks.

I've taken one stick of ram out (it occured to me to do this just after i posted!), and it seems to be installing. I am still getting the "cannot copy file" errors, but if i have it retry a couple of times, it will usually go through. After that though, it still gives me "fatal errors" because it didn't copy all of the setup info onto the hd.
I was hesitant to put the system specs in my sig because i'm buidling this for someone else, but here they are:
A64 3200+
512 (1 stick) corsair twinx 3200LLPT DDR
WD 36gb raptor - connected to sata 1
plextor dd rom drive
floppy drive
and 2 case fans and the cpu heatsink/fan
Do you guys think that the power supply is the root of the problem as I've heard suggested? I thought this Chieftec rated at 450W would be enough. I will try and pick up a case with an Antec 380w PSU and try it out. I know that it's not a problem with the cd because i've used it to install on the same system, except it was on a WD 250gb ATA drive. Everything went fine on that installation. I've only been having this problem when trying to install on the raptor through sata.

Folders of picture scans won't copy

I have several folders of pictures, scans of slides, when I try to move the folder to copy to anothr hard drive it just freezes. I tried disk utility, disk warrior, techpro all of these say the folder and items are fine. They open fine but won't copy. Why? Can I force this issue? How?

James:
Download and run BatChmod on the folder containing the files with the settings shown here, putting your administrator login name, long or short, in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field. Then see if you can move them. Disk Utility primarily repairs permissions on applications and system files.
Another test would be to boot into Safe Mode and then see if you can move the files. If you can then there's something that's getting loaded when you boot normally that's the culprit.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Bluetooth streaming audio won't work w FORD SYNC after previously working.

Simply pull the SYNC module fuse, then place it back in. This should clear up any problems that anyone is having if your bluetooth audio won't stream or your SYNC keeps saying NO BLUETOOTH DEVICE FOUND. You can also disconnect your car battery cables, then connect them back and this will reset the SYNC Module. I am a Ford Dealer in Southeast GA and had the above problem but just solved it.

ITunes 11.1.5.5 in Windows 8.1 won't copy to my 160GB iPod Classic.

I have an iPod Classic 160GB and iTunes (Windows 8.1 64bit Computer) won't copy songs to it. It either goes incredibly slow or it just hangs. I can connect the same iPOd to another computer, running Windows 7 64bit, iTunes 11.1.5.5, etc. and it all works perfectly. Is there a Windows 8.1 driver problem with Windows 8.1 and the iPod Classic?

Think you might find it has something to do with AVG.
iTunes worked effortlessly with Norton anti-virus or Windows Firewall on my Windows 8.1 machine but once I installed AVG Internet security everything in iTunes is very laggy.
All AVG settings are set to allow anything to do withTunes and Apple but problems still exist.
iPhone4, 4S, iPod touch 3 and 4 work OK but the Nano doesn't show up at all. I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, etc., but the problems still exist.
There have been reports on this forum before about this.

Premiere Elements 4 audio won't play on mp4 files, codecs missing/unavailable on .mov files

I dowlnloaded Premiere Elements 4, and when I import mp4 files, the video plays but the audio will not. I've also tried to import .mov files, and an error message pops up that says "Codec missing or unavailable." I downloaded the latest version of Quicktime, but that didn't change anything. The files will play back on the video camera, but I"m having trouble with them on my computer. The audio on the mp4 files plays in Quicktime, but not the video, and vice versa when I import them into Elements. Any suggestions?

Does Quicktime Pro also edit .mov files on a PC?

Premiere Elements 4 pretty much works with tape-based digital video. That would be video from a miniDV or HDV tape-based camcorder. It doesn't handle other formats very well.
If you plan to edit MP4s, you definitely want to upgrade to a more current version of the program. If you can't install a current version of the program, you may need to address issues on your computer (such as an outdated operating system or underpowered hardware configuration).
Short of that, you could buy Quicktime Pro from Apple for $29. It will edit MP4s, even on a PC platform.

Help!! AVI audio won't play - Premiere Pro v.7

Hi!
I captured footage from my DV camera into Windows Movie Maker in the form of a DV-avi. (I use WMM because Premiere crashes when I try to capture DV video). And when I import the AVI into Premiere Pro v.7 the audio won't play in the project window. However, when I scrub the slider back and forth the audio does play (kind of).
I have never had this problem before. I've captured video many times and this never happened.
I tried re-capturing it 6 times, but still the audio doesn't play (except when I scrub).
Is there an option I clicked accidentally?
Any help would be really great.
Thanks a lot!

I think WMM creates type 1 files and Premiere needs type 2
You might Google for a converter
You might also use the free http://www.headbands.com/gspot to find out the file details, and report back so someone may be able to help
I installed that program. Very helpful and interesting. Thanks for the link.
I assumed, like you, that I had simply captured the AVI files as Type 1. But I guess they are Type 2, after all.
I don't know if this helps, but the AVIs play just fine in Quicktime, Windows Media Player, WMM and Winamp.

Hello cdnmaggies,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that the Officejet 5745 will only attempt to scan or copy from the ADF. There could be some packing material or tape triggering the sensor in the ADF. Open the ADF and look for anything that got missed.
If it is clear, load a plain piece of paper into the ADf and tell it to copy. When the paper is fed through and done copying, ensure that there is not message on the screen that an original is loaded. If this is displayed, remove the power from the back of the printer to reset the memory.
Ensure the printer is connected to a wall outlet directly and then connect the power back to the printer. If the there is no message, try copying from the glass.

Mac G5/Pro Tools 002R Digi Core Audio Won't Launch HELP!!

All of a sudden Digi Core Audio won't launch. Not with I-Tunes, Not With Pro Tools, not with audio through the internet. What should I do? HELP!!
I haven't installed or updated anything. I ran disk utility and I got a message in RED saying
Volume Header Needs minor repair/
Volume Macintosh HD Needs to be repaired.
1. HFS Volume Checked
Volume Needs Repair
Someone suggested I hit the repair button but the repair disk button is grayed out.
What should I do next. I am basically computer illiterate, can you talk me through it like I am an 6 year old.
Thanks!!

Hi, you cannot Repair the drive you are booted from... a silly OSX feature if you ask me!
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Tiger Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.
(If perchance you cant Find your Install Disk, at least do the Safe Boot part above).
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, or things don't load/run, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates again, or even do an A&I if you have enough free disk space.
The combo update for PowerPC-based Macs...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateppc.html
The combo update for Intel-based Macs...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateintel.html
Repair Permissions before & after re-install, then reboot again each time.
If all the above fails, then it appears to be time for a relatively painless Archive & Install, which gives you a new/old OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space and no Disk corruption, and is relatively quick & painless...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
Just be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings.
I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.
