Can I slow playback of music?

I know you can slow the playback of audiobooks but can I slow the playback of a music file. I am trying to learn a song and slower playback would make that a lot easier.

If you just change things in Win Explorer, itunes will lose the paths to the music files.
Your ratings & other metadata are stored in a file named iTunesLibrary.itl. That database also stores the exact paths to all the music.
If your exHD2 has the same folder structure/paths as the exHD1 that died, you might be able to assign it the drive letter that exHD1 was using, and it will all work.
Here is a good background article to read before doing anything.

Especially the section, *iTunes: The Database versus the Content*.
My advice is to make a backup of your ITL file now before doing anything, and put it in a safe place so you can get to it if you need to try a few things.
I assume you are like most folks and still have the iTL file in the default place on the C: drive.
Make a copy and put it on exHD2 or in another folder on C:.

How can I slow down the music of my clip?

How can I slow down the music of my clip?

Try using the following code after each time you write to the TextArea. I am assuming you are using a TextArea component and are trying to control the position of where it is scrolled to when it refreshes with the chat data.
"ta" is the instance name of the TextArea
ta.verticalScrollPosition = ta.maxVerticalScrollPosition;

Can i slow down the music speed?

how do i slow down the song speed while im listening to it, please help. =D

What I usually do is set a marker for every beat. Then I can go back and edit my clips to the markers, and it syncs up with the music. Course it might be kind of hard to set 15 markers in one second...
On the other hand, Capt. Mench's technique is definitely a good one. A fantastic one, actually. Markers would just be another method of doing it.
(On a side note, that video is awesome, Captain. Especially using the brackets to trim. I never knew about that. Thanks for the tip, and thanks for posting it, David.)
Good luck, B, and hope one of these methods works for you.

Slowing down the music in Logic Express

Is it possible to slow down music without bringing down the pitch, like amazing slow downer does?
Thanks, Frans

Slowing down the music on the same pitch is easy...when you know it. I found that when you check the box "follow tempo" the tempo of the song can be adjusted in the transport window. And then the music will be slowed down on the same pitch to the preferred speed. Very useful when you have to study on a Charlie Parker solo. Now I can make a start to actually understand what the man was really doing.

Posting lots of slides with video slow playback to a halt

In our slide of about 50 slides, when we have one video slide, it plays ok, but each slide we add after, makes the captivate play slower and slower. In this case, we have about a dozen slides with video, and with all video slides in, the playback is not useable. Video is set to progressive video download and are only a few meg in size
How can we handles several slides with video?
Thanks

This sounds like a bandwidth issue.
Do you encounter the same slow playback issue if you publish the course to your local PC and play the course from your hard drive? If not, the issue isn't likely CPU-related.
If local playback is also slow, your CPU/RAM resources might be unable to keep up with decoding your video at it's current compression or size. You might need to use smaller, lighter video.
If you want to see whether or not your issue is related to bandwidth limitations, download the Charles web debugging proxy software (http://www.charlesproxy.com/download/) and use this to watch the actual downloads in progress for the videos in your course. If you see that Captivate is downloading more than one video at a time, this might explain why things start to bog down. You might need to restructure your course so that each video is downloaded separately as the user comes to it. At worst, tThis could require breaking your course into more modules.

How do I enable playback of music without intermission on the iPhone?

How do I enable playback of music without intermission on the iPhone?

Doing so on a 3G iPhone "can" take several hours. So, plug your phone into a wall outlet, then Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. When finished, your phone should look just like it did when first taken out of the box, with nothing but the OS on it. Conversely, you can connect it to iTunes & restore it as a "New" device. Just don't sync after you restore as new.

PE1 Exported MPEG (DVD) - Slow Playback

It has been a while since I've used PE and I just did a clean install of my OS (XP Pro) and all software.
I'm not sure if this is a problem with playback or encoding, but when I play exported clips that used the DVD Compatible setting, the playback is slow in any application (WMP, PE, etc.)
However, exported videos that I made about a year ago with the same setting seem to play fine.
I then used MyDVD to burn the suspect video clips to DVD and they play just fine in a set-top DVD player.
I'm also almost sure that these suspect video clips played just fine right after I created them (in WMP).
I tried "repairing" PE, updating WMP to version 11, and istalled all other updates that I could find.
Other MPEG formats seem to work fine.

Time has stood still for me...I'm still using version 1 as it has worked for me quite well up until now.
I usually import MPEG or AVI files into PE, depending on which camera I use or if I used my TV card to capture/record from it's tuner or my 8mm camcorder.
I render the workspace and the video plays great in PE, transitions and all.
I use the Export button (or File > Export) to export to an MPEG file on my hard drive, where I select the DVD Compatible preset.
Then I play the video in WMP. Ironically, the videos I made from before I formatted and re-imaged my system play just fine, and they were made with the DVD Compatible preset the same way as today, but the ones I made post re-imaging my machine play slow. Even more ironic is that I'm sure that they played just fine right after I made them (I'm sure the first thing I did after exporting the MPEG file was to watch it full screen in WMP. The problem came on suddenly with all videos that I recently made).
An update!
I installed the K-Lite mega codec pack and it detected a couple "damaged" codecs, which I let it remove. They were an mp3 encoder/decoder, apparently from my SBLive audio card.
This seemed to fix the files with slow playback, but now I am unable to import the files that I exported from PE (the DVD Compatible files) as PE complains that the file is damaged or unsupported. They play fine, however. I will check a short clip to make sure this is still not a problem.
It may be that PE cannot import the files because the "damaged" codecs were removed by K-Lite, and are indeed not supported, or that the files were encoded badly. I'm not sure why they play OK now.
(I'm really only interested in a set of TV programs that I recorded and used PE to trim the clips, then exported to MPEG. I want to bring them back into PE to make a DVD. I can get 7 shows on 1 DVD this way, if I use MyDVD, it does not compress them any further and will only fit 3 shows per DVD. I deleted the source MPEG files, so I'm stuck!)
Another odd thing is that I got a Media Off-Line for an MPEG file that has not changed in any way for over a year. I can re-import the file just fine, but the original is still unavailable in the media list.
And now I'm not sure I like K-Lite as it pops up a tray icon everytime I access any sort of media device. I have so many codecs now it'm going to have to learn to manage them.
I guess at this point I don't really have a question, other than what to do with the K-Lite pack. I figure I'm stuck with the suspicious MPEG files that I want to compress further and burn to DVD. Wish I know what the problem was though. I guess in the future I should just make a custom MPEG preset with a lower bit rate. That looks like what PE does anyway when I select to "fit to media" when making a DVD preview (to a folder). Then I might be able to us MyDVD to make the DVD directly. I just think it won't take any MPEG file (must be DVD compliant MPEG2).
Thanks for bearing through this long winded reply.

I was listening to an audiobook and somehow managed to speed up the reader, How can I slow the reader back down to a reasonable speed?

On the right side of the playing screen right below the scurbber bar is the speed setting box. It has 1/2X, 1X or 2X, the playback speeds. Tap the bax to change and cycle through the speeds.

When one or more family members who have been sharing one iTunes account wants to create their own iTunes account can they each upload the music/apps from the shared iTunes on their devices to the new iTunes account?

Yes. I would clarify your statement about the "shared" iTunes Library though. If you want each iOS device to have its own music library, you should create separate user accounts for them. Read:
iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same fam

Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.

Since downloading ios5 on my iphone 4 the capacity guage in itunes shows other as over 21Gb and i can no longer fit any music on it. How do I get rid of the other stuff? other

Since downloading ios5 on my iphone 4 a few days ago, the capacity guage in itunes shows "other" as over 21Gb and i can no longer fit any music on my iphone.
How do I get rid of the other stuff?
capacity available on 32 Gb iphone is 28.49Gb
i previously had 21.97 Gb music, over 6 Gb photos, about 1Gb of apps, and minute amount of audio
now i have no music, 5.4 Gb photos and similar (0.8Gb) for apps and audio. i have deleted heaps of photos and unused apps to try to make space but obviosly this is a much bigger problem. I also created a smaller music folder on itunes to sync to but at present no music is selected for syncing due to the lack of available space.
i have 15Gb icloud account now also which is about half full.
Ive done a little research and heard similar tales but with much smaller other totals than this. Can you help?
i cant update my apps as i get a message saying i do not have enough available space.

I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

I upgraded to 10.5.0.142 on windows 7 and I can no longer add any music to my libraries

I upgraded to 10.5.0.142 on windows 7 and I can no longer add any music to my libaries.
It makes a notification sound, but there is no message, and it just doesn't do anything.
How frustrating. Considering apple make excellent products, iTunes is terrible.

I find a way to add music.
Make sure iTunes is closed.
Go to the song file on your computer. If the file has the little black musical iTunes symbol as its icon, just double click the file. It should open up in iTunes and stay in you library.
If the little black musical iTunes symbol isn't next to the file, right click the file and go to "Open With" and then click on "iTunes". It should open up in iTunes and stay in your library.
Yeaaa its the long way but that's the only way for now, unfortunately.

HT201272 Hey I just got an iphone 4S as my 4 was stolen. I synched it and I can see all of my music but I can't get the songs to play... When I hit play it screen starts flipping thru all my music then goes back to main screen. What do I do. Thanks :)

Help! On my new iPhone 4S, I can see all of my music and vidoes that I downloaded from itunes that I had previously purchased on my iPhone 4, BUT I can not play any of the songs! When I hit "play" from my 'albums' and 'playlist' or 'songs' it looks like it is going to play the song when the song screen comes up showing the album but then the screen starts flipping from album to album or song to song randomly. Then after flipping thru anywhere from 10-15 songs, it stops and goes back the previous page showing my list of music.... I have synched my phone, restored it and downloaded all of my music and videos. The only things I can get to play from my iPod on my iPhone 4S is my videos, no music. Can anyone help me? I have been trying to figure it out for days and I am a bit frustrated. Thanks in advance for any help I may receive.

Basics from the manual are restrt, reset, restore.
Have you tried each of these?

Try to remove all Apple related software and then reinstall iTunes Removing iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista

I had to get my hard drive replaced from Apple, I lost all of my music obviously. My question is, how can I get all my music off of my iPhone onto iTunes? Since it's a new hard drive, the iPhone isn't recognizing this as it's home computer.

You will need to use third-party software to transfer music from your phone to the iTunes Library. I recommend Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac | Macroplant.com.
