Can i play just the audio portion of videos

I have a 1st gen ipod that cannot play videos. Can i buy a music video from itunes, and watch it on my computer, but also play just the audio on my ipod.

Ms. Marczoch is correct! You can also use a program called "WireTap" which allows you to record the audio output of certain applications in Mac OS X. It records as AIFF's, but you can convert them to AAC or MP3 using iTunes.
Also, you can run a simple 1/8" audio cable from your soundcard's output to your line input (just make sure you aren't monitoring the input, or you'll get a nasty feedback loop).
However, I think Audio Hijack or WireTap would be the more elegant solutions. I used WireTap to capture the audio from my Crank Yankers videos - Classic.

Google app can't play all the audio and video on this page, any suggestions?

New Lenovo Yoga laptop with W8.1. I have downloaded the google app, and when I search for something and the go to open a video, the flash player doesn't work and I get a message across the top of the window saying "google app can't play all the audio and video on this page"
Does anyone have a fix? i can only find a fix for google chrome, not their app.
Thanks

The "app" from the windows app store called "google search" http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-gb/app/308dc145-6851-487d-b83b-1223a3b52dc2
It isn't specific to search video or anything else, you just type in the search and it finds the answers, but it isn't done via chrome. When the result includes a video or audio and I click on the link to that page, the app kicks up that the flash player needs downloading. I can't work out how to do it

Hearing just Music from the Itunes Videos. Can you access just the audio?

Have a 40 Gb Color Ipod and have loaded some videos on my Imac....just wondering if there is a way to hear the music part from the videos. For that matter if it can be loaded on the color display Ipod. I'm not concerned about watching the video...but would like to be able to hear the music....even just burn a CD to hear the music only.
Any help would be appreciated

Bill,
Anything you buy from the iTunes Music Store has digital rights management built in. Basically you would have to use a 3rd party program to extract the audio portion, and Apple get very touchy about posts that discuss messing with purchased music/videos.
The last couple were removed by the Mods. Just so you know. : )

Can I import just the audio from a DVD into itunes????

I'm a beginner to this Itunes and have been wondering this. If I can take audio files off of CDs and put them into Itunes. Can I take just audio from a DVD and put that into Itunes. Example: Can I take the audio from a live concert DVD for just one song?

Welcome, Don, to the Apple Discussions!
No, you can't do that with iTunes.
There is third-party software available that allows you to do so, though.
You might want to pay a visit to Google and enter
b dvd audio ripping
or some such terms.
Good Luck!

Can I play just the songs downloaded to my phone in iOS 7?

I have downloaded a large collection of songs to my iPhone and listen to them often on my subway commute where wifi is intermittent at best.
After downloading iOS7, my iTunes now reflects not just the songs on my iPhone, but my entire collection from iTunes, and when I shuffle songs, it tries to play all the songs, even those not on my iPhone. This seems to work when connected to LTE or wifi, but hangs up when there is no connection.
I tried to just create a playlist of all the songs that are actually on my phone, but you can't actually view which songs are downloaded from the "create playlist" screen.
Do I have to do a ton of manual work creating a playlist to fix this problem, or is there a setting somewhere where I can just play the songs actually downloaded on my phone?

I can get contacts messages up but I'm sure I used to be able to type a key word into the message search and it come up with the location - ie. if I had messaged someone about icecream I could just type that in and it would come up with the person I had sent it to?

Why can't I render the audio portion of a movie trialer from Apple site

I have been downloading apple trialers from the apple website for a year now, and importing them into Final Cut. I put them in a sequence, and then render them. It has been working fine until now, all of a sudden, the audio won't render. I have tried opening a new project, I have made sure the sequence settings are correct, but still, it won't render the audio. The video still renders fine. Help.

Apple is on to you...whatever you do, don't answer the door.

TS1382 I'd like to listen to just the audio portion of a itunes video podcast. I do not want the video in my library or on my ipod. Is there a setting which allow this?

Any help would be appreciated as I really want to hear the podcast on my Nano- not view it because I listen to these podcasts while I drive.

You can change the Media Type of the podcast to Music in iTunes from under the Podcast's Options tab of its Get Info tab., but other than that there aren't really any other options.

Can I import and play just the sound track from a video?

I downloaded some video clips with sound and imported them as QT videos into i-tunes - no problem. But how can I now play just the sound track and import it into a music playlist so I can play it on my Ipod in the car? (Or if I put the video on my Ipod - it's a sound only one, not a video one - will it just play the sound track?)
Thanks

Without knowing anything about the nature of the video files you're talking about, all I can say is that if they contain audio, you can extract it. The process may not be lossless, unless you extract the audio and convert it to Apple Lossless, WAV or AIFF. If your iPod is an older one, you may be limited in the formats you can play.
For a simple way to extract the audio only, you can use the Streaming/Exporting Wizard in VLC. You can also, depending on the format of the source movie, export audio with Toast or even iMovie to formats compatible with iPods.

The Audio portion of my 30 pin slot on my iPhone stopped working for no known reason. I tried both resetting and reinstalling everything is there anything else I can do?

The Audio portion of the 30 pin slot on my iPhone 4 stopped working for no apparent reason. It neither powers on my JAM apogee and Tascam IUS interfaces or feeds audio in and out of it. I have tried both resetting and reinstalling everything on the iPhone 4. Is there anything I can do to make the 30 pin slot to work again? The interfaces work fine on others devices and they used to work very well on the phone previously.
Thanks for any suggestions and help,
Dano

Hi shanny202.
Really strange problem you have there. I have a few questions though.
Please try again and try to make the phone as a new without restoringen with you iCloud-data or backup-data from iTunes. Maybe it is something wrong with the data (strange).
Anyway, i think you should call Apple Support or visit an Apple Store, don't forgot to make a Genius Bar reservation.

I am using MTS files. They load in PE fine. The problem is when I try to play them, I just get audio and no video. I have installed the latest updates. Is there a CODEX that I need.

I have windows 8.1. I have downloaded the mts files from my video camera onto my hard drive. I have loaded a subset of these mts files into premier elements and they show up fine. I can bring them to the time line without a problem. The issue is that when I click on them, I only get the audio and no video. Normally when you click a thumbnail, the picture shows in the large screen. That screen remains blank.

John - thanks for your response
1. Graphics Adapter: Nvidia GeForce GTX 650
2. My driver before you response was 3/4/14   9.18.13.3523. I went to Nvidia and downloaded and installed latest driver 7/2/14 9.18.13.4052
3. Rebooted and checked APE and no change in the problem. Still doesn't show video when I double click an thumbnail or if I single click it does not show a video image in the large screen.
4. Some things I have done to try to resolve the problem.
     a. Searched this forum for a similar problem. I didn't see one.
     b. Did a web search to see if I could find a solution outside this forum
     c Went into "edit" and tried some changes in project preferences and setting to see if that would make a difference
     d. Tried to contact Adobe support to speak to a person but that seemed difficult and could never figure out how to do it.
5. I have always loaded AVI clips into this program and this is the first time I have tried MTS files. When I opened the new project, the program notified that I had to change something??? to load an MTS file and asked me if I wanted the program to do this for me. I said yes and here I am.   I seem so close to making it work.   Thanks

Is there any way to keep streaming the audio portion of a video podcast when I leave the Podcast app?

If I leave the Podcast app while playing an audio podcast, I can still hear the audio. However, if I leave a video podcast to do something else like answer emails, the audio portion doesn't keep playing. This means that if I have a video podcast going, I can't do anything else with my iPad while it's playing. I multitask all the time while playing my podcasts and then come back to the video if it sounds like there is something interesting to see. This one glitch unfortunately makes the Podcast app unusable for me. I'll keep using the Downcast app for a while longer because of this but if Apple fixes this problem, I'll be back since the rest of the app looks great.

Thanks Kiwi. It doesn't make sense to me though, as that would seem to be only a simple change in the operating system, not a hardware 'necessity'.

Converting the Audio portion of the Media into a MP3

I would like to be able to copy the audio portion of about 1 - 2 hrs. of media and convert it into a MP3.
Is there a simple way to do it using Premiere Elements 12? or in combination with Audacity?

You can just have the gray tabs spanning one segment at a time. So I am not seeing series of bracket couplets in this.
You could do one at a time and then bring all the .mp3 exports back into another project to put them together for another export.
Would the "series of bracket couplets" be non continuous segments through the whole original audio file?
But, how about this idea.
Given you have a whole audio file, and you want only a some segments (non continuous) to go into the same one file.
1. Import your audio into the project into Expert workspace Project Assets. Do not drag it to the Timeline.
2. Instead, double click the audio file to open the Preview Window with its Set In and Set Out points.
3. Then in the Preview Windows use the Set In Set Out points to trim your audio...Set In Set Out for first, drag that
first trim to Audio 1....Set In Set Out for the next section your want as you go through the audio in the Preview Window and so on.
4. You will end up with all your trim (representing your selected segments) on Audio 1, side by side. The gray tabs of the Work Area Bar should automatically span the content. But, if not, make sure they are in place to do that.
5. Then export as before but do not bother with "Share Work Area Bar Only" option in Export.
Please give that a try and see if any of that works for you.
Thanks.

Why can't I hear the audio for my slide show outside of PSE 9?

I have prepared a slide show with audio in Photoshop Elements 9. It plays fine within the PSE 9 viewer, both slides and audio. However, when I try to view it on Windows Media Player, the audio does not play, though the slide show does. I am also interested in playing the slide show on my TV through a DVD player. I have converted the slide show with audio to an avi format using Free Make to allow this. Again, the slide show plays, but the audio does not. Anyone have an idea of what I am doing wrong? Thanks for your help.

What codec is your audio encoded with—what is the extension on the file, and what bitrate is the audio? Some of this information might be visible if you do a right-click Properties -> Details on the file in Windows Explorer.
It sounds like PSE9 has a private codec that can play it, but the Windows system, in general, doesn’t have a codec to support it. AVI is just an envelope for the existing video and audio. If the audio is using a non-supported codec, then wrapping it in a AVI won’t help. The audio needs to be something more universal. I’d guess that a fixed, moderate bit-rate MP3 would be supported, whereas a FLAC or very high or possibly a variable-rate bit rate MP3 wouldn’t be as universally supported.

How do I use just the audio from a clip without the video?

Can't remember how to use just the audio from a clip, without the video. FCP X can't select like FCP&

Edit just the audio into the timline.
