Conforming Audio is driving me up the wall!

Hi all,
Windows Vista Home Premium, i7, 12GB ram, Production Premium CS5.
I am making a DVD in Encore CS5 with 4 AVI files and a static menu.
When I add the Avi video files En conforms the audio...
I was getting frustrated because it seemed the audio was getting lost somewhere so after 'clearing' and re-importing files a few times I came to realise that before conforming the Audio was playing fine but once the Audio was 'conformed' the sound dissapeared? I used AME to create a Wav file from the Avi video files and added them to the EN timelines to get round that problem.
The problem I am having is that EN is conforming the audio every time I go to another window, like Explorer, or even if I preview within EN, I close the preview window (or just come back from explorer) and EN conforms all the files, all over again! It is driving me up the wall!!!
Then I started 'Transcoding Now' my assets and after every Video is finished I get
so I click OK and EN shuts down ...
When I restart it, opening the same project, it gets partway through opening the project then windows leaps in and declares EN to have a problem and the only option is to close the program. I then start it up again and it starts correctly, I can then 'Locate Transcoded File' for the video file I just transcoded.
Seems like ENcore CS5 is no more stable than CS4 and if anything is less stable.
Any ideas? I can still work through all this 'Stuff' and produce DVD's but the Conforming, CONTINUALLY is just so annoying!
Peter

Interesting ideas MobyTrix.
Slight problem in that my Encore project did not spring from a Premiere project, Premiere was not involved at any point. There was something weird going on there because EN had written it's Cache files but everytime I switched windows it just had to write a bunch more, it was irritating to say the least.
I was amazed after having this issue and discovering the folder of conforming files. It had, over the months built up to nearly 600GB of data! After the lengthy process of cleaning the database it reduced to 350GB or so, then I reduced it to 0GB by deleteing it all
As far as I have worked out there are 4 aplications using these files; Premiere, Encore, Soundbooth and After Effects.
I recently upgraded my DivX codecs at the insistant pestering of the DivX software and there after none of my Adobe software could read any of the AVI packaged DivX files, I found some older codecs out there and installed them and everything went back to normal (what ever that may be).
Encore still crashes on startup with certain projects, I uninstalled it and re-installed and nothing changed, it is just fragile, it is consistent at least and robust enough to go through all the little boughts of behaviour and not get 'broken'.
Perhaps it is all Vistas fault LOL. I think it is just the way things are frankly, with so many different 'platforms' and 'standards' it's amazing anything interacts outside of its own family of hardware/software... The longest project I have worked with was 1 hour and 30 minutes (my own video files edited in PPro for Blu-Ray and DVD) and it all went pretty smoothly, I think upgrading from 6 to 12GB of ram made a big difference.
Cheers,
Peter

Safari bookmarks driving me UP THE WALL

I have checked this forum a few time recently, expecting to see people tearing their hair out over this issue... but there don't seem to be any recent posts about it, either here or in the iCloud forum, so maybe it's just me? (There are some older posts that refer to it, but it's only started being a real problem for me lately.)
I use Safari on both my MacBook Pro (running OS 10.10.1 and Safari 8.0.2) and my iPhone 5c (running iOS 8.1.2). I have Safari set up to sync to iCloud on both devices, and until the past few weeks this has worked very well. Now, however, it is a nightmare. (I can't remember whether or not the change coincided with an OS update... it's possible that it did.)
I have a lot of bookmarks, and they're all sorted into a hierarchy of folders. If I add new bookmarks - on either device - they show up almost instantly on the other device too. But they are always added at the top of their list for some reason, rather than the bottom like they used to be. This isn't really a problem, more an oddity. The real problem is with the sorting.
Don't get me started on the lack of an easy inbuilt way to sort Safari bookmarks. I used to use Glims, which was brilliant, but it doesn't yet work with Yosemite, sadly, and I haven't found anything else that does what I need. (There are things that will sort ALL the bookmarks, but I don't necessarily want them all to be alphabetical!) So, since Yosemite, I've been sorting bookmarks manually... but iCloud won't let me do that any more. If I rearrange any of my bookmarks, they always reappear in their original position within seconds. I've tried the obvious solution, i.e.
1. switch off iCloud syncing on both devices (and go offline as well just in case)
2. organise bookmarks on Mac to how I want them, and export to html file
3. go back online & switch iCloud syncing back on on Mac
4. delete all bookmarks on both Mac and iPhone
5. keep repeating step 4 until bookmarks stop reappearing
6. re-import bookmarks on Mac from html file
7. switch iCloud syncing back on on iPhone
This strategy does solve the problem for a little while, but has two main drawbacks:
(a) the same problem recurs every time I add any new bookmarks
(b) the iPhone bookmarks take ages to reappear, and when they do they're all out of order (and not in folders - the folders are there, but they're all empty and the bookmarks are loose in a random order)
Does anyone have any suggestions, please? All I want to be able to do is to keep my bookmarks synced AND in order! Thanks in advance.

To answer your play in order question you need to figure out the name of the person who is doing the podacast. i.e.) Tim Henson for distorted view. Then you go to "Music"-"Artisits"-"Tim Henson" or whatever and then it will play them all in order.
For your second question did you delete it of your computer or off you iPod?

Itunes always losing my music, driving me up the wall?

This is really getting on my nerves. I have reloaded the songs into itunes so many times that I have lost count, when the list of music comes up, I manually go in delete the song/album and reload it into itunes. I have a folder w/all my music on my desktop, so I don't why itunes keeps losing the location of the music. Why does this keep happening? With older versions of itunes this happened like 1x or 2x. Btw I have always used a PC and currently using an HP envy.

See this post.

2 Teenagers driving me up the wall

My daughter and her friend want to swap phones. They are both on Verizon, on totally differnet plans. Is this something that I can do on-line? They went to the Verizon store and were told the store was too busy. Any help is appreciated

You can't do ti online because you can't activate a phone that's technically already active on another phone number. Do you have a third phone that's not being used? If so, you can dial *228 from that phone, and activate on of the two numbers there (Let's call it number 1, the other number 2, and our phones A,B, and C). So you activate Number 1 on Phone C through *228 or online. Now, Phone A doesn't have a phone number on it, so you can activate Number 2 to Phone A using *228 or online. After that's done, Phone B will no longer have a number assigned to it, so you can activate Number 1 to Phone B using the same methods. Alternately, you can call customer service and have them swap them for you, but to do that you'd have to have an authorized user from each account available to verify and all that.

BT are driving me up the wall!

So today we were told (for the 2nd time) that a BT technician would be around to help us with our problem. My wife had to take a day off work in order to be at the house. Guess what? No show!
I am no keyboard basher but I find this BT customer service to me absolutely terrible. We weren't even informed of a cancellation by the BT representative. I can never recommend BT to anyone after this whole debacle. It's just incredibly rude not to receive any correspondance whatsoever!

If your services are currently down or not working as they should, please check your telephone number with our service status page to see if there’s an outage in your area. If there is, rest assured our engineers are working hard to get everyone’s lines back up and running.
If your service is down how do you check.
By the time you are reading that status page it would be fair to assume you have access to the internet from somewhere such as on your mobile phone, or on another network say at a friends house or at work or perhaps via a wifi hotspot. If you can't get that you can phone 0800.169.0199 and it will give you the same information.

I can't burn a DVD even after following all the tips

I have a nine minute movie created from still phtos in iMovie that I need to burn to a DVD using iDVD 4. I followed all the steps provided online and still cannot get the disk to burn. (I have saved all the images and audio to the hard drive, there is plenty of free space on the hard drive, I have set the preferences to "best quality" and I have a blank DVD+R Memorex DVD to burn to). When I click on the burn button and insert the DVD it checks the DVD and then ejects it with the message "Please insert a blank DVD-R disk". I was able to burn a DVD by dragging the files from Finder to the Toast lite 5.2.2L program and it burned the disk fine. However, when I inserted the DVD into the optical drive it played without no sound (even thought the motion button was activated) and it could not be played on a DVD player. I'm at a loss.

Lucy,
You need to tell us a lot more about your computer system. See the '' box to the right? Click on 'My Settings' and tell us about your computer.
The newer Macs (in general) will burn and play both DVD-R media and DVD+R media (and yes, they are different). Earlier superdrives would only work with DVD-R media.
If you tell us about your computer, we can give you better information.

When I try to burn my slideshow.mov to a dvd disc, it will burn but when i put it in the dvd player it says 'disc error'. I have burned it thru iDVD before but forgot how to do it and it won't do it now. The slide show is on my desktop

Rather than burn directly to disk follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Hi
Four thoughts
• Brand and type of DVD/CD Media
• Burn Speed ?
• Ever used a Cleaning DVD ?
• Free space on Main Start-Up Hard Disk ?
Brand and type of DVD/CD Media: MATTERS
- Memorex, NoName and other Cheap brands - most probably works for other things BUT NOT FOR VIDEO.
I only use Verbatim
- DVD-RW - usually do not work OK but with various kinds of problems. DVD+R is a more modern sort and use to give problems on older DVD-players
I only use DVD-R
Burn Speed (in iDVD or alike): Matters
• Best or Max - is not best
I set it down to x2 or x4 Max
Ever used a Cleaning DVD ?
I use one WITHOUT Liquid but with brushes from time to time
Free space on Main Start-Up Hard Disk ?
- Due to that Mac OS X - is UNIX - it behaves likewise. It needs lot's of space on Boot / Start-Up Hard Disk for it's and the applications temp files.
I never go less than 25GB free space - If HD-Video material is used then 4-5 times more is a good thing.
Yours Bengt W

I downloaded 3 chapters from an audiobook which purchased. When I try to burn a copy of those 18 paragraphs, the burned copy does not have the story in sequence, like paragraphs 1 through 20, but scrambles them, eg 1, then 18, 5, 9,16 etc. what is wrong?

Burning to audio cd?
I downloaded 22 paragraphs from an audio book, which I purchased and attempted to burn them to an audio cd.
The burn process worked; however, the chapters were not in sequence.
For example th enew cd began with ch 19, then 3, 4, 19, 12, 7, and on and on.
My great hope was for it to begin with #1; then follow sequentially and end with #22.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.

I created a iMovie with photos, music and titles; shared it with the media browser and burned it on a DVD RDL. The disc will play on my MacBook Pro, but it will not play on my Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player or a smaller portable DVD player. Why?

I created an iMovie with photos, music and titles; shared it with the media browser and burned it on a DV+RDL. The disc will play on my MacBook Pro, but it will not play on my Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player or a smaller portable DVD player. Why?

Probably because they don't accept that media.
Try using Verbatim DVD+DL (if your project exceeds 2 hours) or Verbatim DVD-R if it doesn't.
