Best Way to copy audio books

Hi
What is the best way to copy Audio Books. I just bought all the Harry potter on CD's. I have a 30g 5th gen IPOD had it for 2 month. Upgraded ipod to 1.2 and iTunes 7.0.1.
Everything is running fine.
Thanks,

Hello again,
  I went and checked PDF document properties. The document was created by an application called (3B2 Total Publishing). It's the application that the printing press used to creat the PDF file. Unfortunately I don't have the source document and the printing press claim they don't have any source files but used in-house applicatin to create the PDF book.
I checked fonts used in the PDF file and I found 17 fonts named T1 to T17 and all (Type 3) fonts. I'm seasoned IT engineer but no experience in publishing. So, no idea whether or not this information is usefull to find a way to publish these books in epub.
Cheers,
Abdul

  • What's the best way to copy a book?

    I want to SAVE AS to copy a book to new folder with new name, and have all the referenced graphics and text insets still linked. I am using FM 8 on Windows 7. Is there a good method to do this without purchasing a third-party plug-in?
    Thanks,
    Roger

    Thanks for all your replies.
    I used Error7130's suggestion. I'm glad I made a backup first. One file got transferred to the new directory. I would add after your 3rd bullet, to close FM and re-open. Until I did that it opened the old book when I clicked on the new book. All in all, quite messy but it's done. Now I'm ready to buy third-party SW.
    Has anyon tried SQUIDDS TOOLBOX? It looks like it is what used to be Systec Toolbox. They say:
    'If you will decide for the feature “Book Transfer for FrameMaker 8” (99.00 USD).'
    This keeps all the links but does not create copies of all the images and text insets like Bruce Foster's Archive plug-in that Arnis and Jeff suggested (I think).

  • What is the best way to create Aperture book from Pages '09 document?

    What is the best way to create Aperture book from Pages '09 document?

    There is no way to import pages documents to Aperture and convert them to an Aperture book. Aperture books can only be created by manually adding images and text to the pages of a book, and using the layout of the predefined templates.
    The best you could do, would be to print your pages document to pdf and import the resulting pdf file into Aperture as a new project. This will create one image for each page. Then select the page images all at once and  create a new book. Select a theme with fullsize page images, like "picture Book", and then add the images of the pages to the empty pages of the book.
    But probably would you get a much better quality and layout, when you recreate your pages document in Aperture, by starting with an empty book and copying and pasting the text from your Pages document. But don't paste the photos from the document - try to use the originals of those photos.

  • Best way to copy range of paragraphs

    I'm getting all the changebars in the files of a book, and copying them out into a separate, single change document. Once I find the Pgf with the changebar, what would be the best way to copy the info out to the change doc? I want to copy the entire section that contains the changebar.
    I figured I would move backwards and find the most recent section heading and set the beginning of a TextRange there at the beginning of that Pgf. Then I move forward and find the following heading pagagraph, and move back one pgf from that and set that as the end of the range.
    At that point should I use copy and paste into the new document?
    Thanks, Mark

    Hi Mark,
    Glad you are making progress. About the Pgfs in tables: yes, they are in a world of their own. Each table is a more or less closed object anchored to a paragraph in the document. You can step through all Pgfs in a document (including the ones in your text flows as well as the ones in table cells) using one single linked list, but that list does not care about the order in which the paragraphs appear in your document, and also includes paragraphs on your master and reference pages. This is not what you want to have.
    You mentioned you wanted to copy not just the paragraph with changebars but the section that contains at least one paragraph with changebars. One strategy is finding a paragraph with changebars and then tracking back to the previous heading and forward to the next heading, so that you can determine which section to copy to your changes document. With the requirement of checking paragraphs in tables added into the equation, this becomes a complex matter. Even if you know that a paragraph in a table cell has a changebar set, you should track back to the table anchor, then to the paragraph in which the anchor is located, and then back to the section that you need to copy. And if the section also contains a paragraph with changebars outside a table, you do not want to copy it again.
    This might require a completely different approach to the problem. Build an array with paragraph identifiers of all headings in your document, and create an array of booleans all set to false that has the same number of entries. Then find all paragraphs with changebars and, for each found paragraph, walk back to the nearest heading, find the heading identifier in the headings array and set the corresponding entry in the boolean array to true. Then do the same thing with paragraphs with changebars in tables. In this case, you track the paragraph in the table back to its table anchor, then to the paragraph containing the table anchor and from there walk back to the nearest heading.
    In the end you will have an array of heading paragraph identifiers and a matching array of booleans telling you which sections to copy to the changes document. Doing the copying is dead easy, as you already have the start and end paragraph identifier for each section. Just create a TextLoc pointing at the first heading Pgf with offset 0 and a TextLoc pointing at the next heading Pgf with offset 0 and copy this range.
    I hope this makes sense to you. If things get too complicated, throw me an email (you will find my mail address in my profile) with a sample file and I will have a look at it. If I think it will take me more than a couple of hours to write, I will make you a decent offer.

  • (workflow question) - What is the best way to handle audio in a large Premiere project?

    Hey all,
    This might probably be suitable for any version of Premiere, but just in case, I use CS4 (Master Collection)
    I am wrestling in my brain about the best way to handle audio in my project to cut down on the time I am working on it.
    This project I just finished was a 10 minute video for a customer shot on miniDV (HVX-200) cut down from 3 hours of tape.
    I edited my whole project down to what looked good, and then I decided I needed to clean up all the Audio using Soundbooth, So I had to go in clip by clip, using the Edit in SoundBooth --> Render and Replace method on every clip. I couldn't find a way to batch edit any audio in Soundbooth.
    For every clip, I performed similar actions---
    1) both tracks of audio were recorded with 2 different microphones (2 mono tracks), so I needed only audio from 1 track - I used SB to cut and paste the good track over the other track.
    2) amplified the audio
    3) cleaned up the background noise with the noise filter
    I am sure there has to be a better workflow option than what I just did (going clip by clip), Can someone give me some advice on how best to handle audio in a situation like this?
    Should I have just rendered out new audio for the whole tape I was using, and then edit from that?
    Should I have rendered out the audio after I edited the clips into one long track and performed the actions I needed on it? or something entirely different? It was a very slow, tedious process.
    Thanks,
    Aza

    Hi, Aza.
    Given that my background is audio and I'm just coming into the brave new world of visual bits and bytes, I would second Hunt's recommendation regarding exporting the entire video's audio as one wav file, working on it, and then reimporting. I do this as one of the last stages, when I know I have the editing done, with an ear towards consistency from beginning to end.
    One of the benefits of this approach is that you can manage all audio in the same context. For example, if you want to normalize, compress or limit your audio, doing it a clip at a time will make it difficult for you to match levels consistently or find a compression setting that works smoothly across the board. It's likely that there will instead be subtle or obvious differences between each clip you worked on.
    When all your audio is in one file you can, for instance, look at the entire wave form, see that limiting to -6 db would trim off most of the unnecessary peaks, triim it down, and then normalize it all. You may still have to do some tweaking here and there, but it gets you much farther down the road, much more easily.Same goes for reverb, EQ or other effects where you want the same feel throughout the entire video.
    Hope this helps,
    Chris

  • What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported".

    What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported". What does that mean? I am trying to drag libraries (with metadata) to external HD...wondering what the best way to do that is?

    Hi Shane.  Not much in the way of thoughts - - but fwiw:
    How is the drive attached?
    Can you open large files on the drive with other programs?
    Are you running any drive compression or acceleration programs (some drives arrive with these installed)?
    Can you reformat the drive and try again?
    Hi Kirby,
    I attached the UltraMax Plus with a USB cable. The UltraMax powers the cable so power is not an issue. I can open other files. Also, there is 500GB of files on the drive so I cannot re-format it. Although, I noted I could import the entire Aperture Library. However, I do not want to create a duplicate on my machine because that would be defeating the purpose of the external drive.
    Thanks,

  • I'm buying a new Macbook Pro this week and am wondering what is the best way to copy over the software I have from my existing Macbook Pro to the new one? eg. Photoshop and Office etc. I no longer have the CDs.

    I'm buying a new Macbook Pro this week and am wondering what is the best way to copy over the software I have from my existing Macbook Pro to the new one? eg. Photoshop and Office etc. I no longer have the CDs.

    Ya know what I'm on a brand new MBP just about 24 hours old and you know whats been working amazingly for me. I have a 27inch iMac as well and i've just connected it to my network and been dragging files and apps across the network onto my new MBP. Its really working fast and its flawless. You could always do that option, Just go into sharing options and turn them on for both Macs. Then just click and drag. Of course they have to both be on the same network for this to be possible.
    Look at my network.
    Shared is what your looking at.  I click on there see all my computers files and then drag the ones i want form its folder to my MBP folders.  Hope that helps if your looking for a very simple way on a wireless network.

    What is the best way to copy a DVD I made from iMovie?  It was HD720 and I don't want to lose any quality in the copies.  I need to distribute it to about 20 people. It's 42 minutes long.

    You will need to save it as a video to the camera roll.
    Import it into windows as you would a photo.
    Then purchase DVD authoring software, and create a DVD.

  • What is the best way to sync Address Book contacts?

    Please help!
    I run a small Mac network and I need to sync all (we have 8 Macs) the Mac's Address Book's with each other and also with 5 different iPhones. We have a Mac Server running Tiger and all the Macs are running Tiger. 4 of the Macs are Intel. The server is PowerPC.
    At the moment I am just using 1 .Mac account to sync to them all, but this is causing many problems with duplications, errors and 'stress!'
    The reason for the above setup is money. But, as the problems continue and the syncing become more important, money is now allowed to be spent.
    My question really is, as the subject header says, 'What is the best way to sync Address Book contacts?' In the past I have tried XC Connect, and a few other apps, but with the introduction of the iPhones, the setup has become more complex.
    If I were to buy all new Intel Macs and an Intel Mac Server all running Snow Leopard, would the 'Address Book Server' do the job? I have found very little information on the net and the information I did find was all negative.
    Is there something Leopard can do that Tiger can't? Is Tiger nolonger a good enough system to try and run an Address Book network?
    Does anybody else out there in the Mac world have a similar setup to mine, and if so, how do you have your setup.
    Incidentally, ALL users, incuding iPhone users, need read & write access to the Address Book!!
    Any solutions or suggestions would be most welcome.
    Thanks in advance

    Oh, I meant Leopard does do more than Tiger Server.
    I don't know enough about Server, even less abut Syncing.
    SL is to new, not enough time to iron out the kinks yet imho.
    One day SL will be better than Leo, but...
    I'd ask over in server...

  • Best way to handle audio and video?

    Can someone give me suggestions on best way to handle audio and video clips. 2 issues:
    Audio- I want to avoid problems for visitors who may need to install something to listen, and would like them to be able to remain viewing page while listening. I understand how to set up the Iweb player option, and I understand how to simply link to a mp3 file that relies on the visitors player. I'm thinking I need to "embed a player" (?) which is something I haven't dealt with yet.
    Video- I have a link to a .mov file. It plays it in either a real small box, or if you enlarge it , the image deteriorates. Is there a better way to handle this?

  • What is the best way to copy data....

    Hello friends,
    What could you think is the best way to copy this data ? :
    - I have two identical databases (Oracle 9i)
    - I want to migrate the data of 90 tables (all tables begin with the same string, i.e. 'TAB') from Database1 to database2.
    - There are integrity constraints, referentials, etc.
    I'd like to generate a script to automate/accelerate the process.
    So, I'm thinking on the following:
    - Disable all the constraints in Database2.
    - Connect to Database 1 and generate a script with the 'inserts' using TOAD (or another similar application)
    - In a Database 2 session, execute the script...
    Of course if I use TOAD I can't generate an unique script to do this process in one step so...
    Any better idea? (Using export/import, ... or some script you have...)
    Thanks.
    Jose.

    Use exp and imp. It works... seriously! And you don't need to drop the user/schema. But don't take my word, run an example...
    On Database 1
    First let's create a couple of tables with referential integrity to each other to make sure exp/imp can handle it...
    SQL> create table t1 (t1_id number constraint pk_t1 primary key, t2_id number);
    Table created.
    SQL> create table t2 (t2_id number constraint pk_t2 primary key, t1_id number);
    Table created.
    SQL> alter table t1 add constraint fk_t1_t2 foreign key (t2_id) references t2 (t2_id);
    Table altered.
    SQL> alter table t2 add constraint fk_t2_t1 foreign key (t1_id) references t1 (t1_id);
    Table altered.
    SQL> insert into t1 (t1_id, t2_id) values (1, null);
    1 row created.
    SQL> insert into t2 (t2_id, t1_id) values (2, 1);
    1 row created.
    SQL> update t1 set t2_id = 2 where t2_id is null;
    1 row updated.
    SQL> commit;
    Commit complete.
    SQL> select * from t1;
         T1_ID      T2_ID
             1          2
    SQL> select * from t2;
         T2_ID      T1_ID
             2          1
    SQL> select table_name, constraint_name, constraint_type, r_constraint_name from user_constraints
      2  where table_name in ('T1','T2');
    TABLE_NAME                     CONSTRAINT_NAME                C R_CONSTRAINT_NAME
    T1                             PK_T1                          P
    T1                             FK_T1_T2                       R PK_T2
    T2                             PK_T2                          P
    T2                             FK_T2_T1                       R PK_T1
    SQL>
    Now let's export those tables. You can build a parfile manually or even spool it from a sql script with the names of all tables you need to export...
    $ cat parfile.txt
    tables=(\
    t1,\
    t2
    $ exp rc/pwd parfile=parfile.txt file=db1.dmp log=db1.log

  • Does iPhoto not have safeguards against accidentally deleting an entire photo book, which is very easily done (when you think you are deleting just a photo)? No "are you sure you want to delete?". No way of copying your book before, or restoring it after?

    Does iPhoto not have safeguards against accidentally deleting an entire photo book, which is very easily done with a single press of delete (and which can be done when you think you are deleting just a photo)? No "are you sure you want to delete?" before it happens? No way of copying your book while you are working on it (to make multiple versions of it, or just to have a safeguard copy), and no real way of restoring it after (since, remarkably, the photo books don't appear as items - items which could very easily be recovered otherwise)?

    I get a dialog box when I try to delete a book.
    And if you right click on the book in the left column you can duplicate it so you can have multiple versions.
