Can't get Pearl to recognize .mp3 files

Two weeks ago I loaded three 'test' albums on to my media card - worked great.
Last week, spent too many hours trying to load more music on - nothing worked.  Used Roxio and Explorer.  Explorer can 'see' the stuff I've loaded on, but Pearl won't recognize them or play them - only the original three.
Tried reformatting. Interestingly enough, the Pearl still 'sees' the original three albums I've posted - BUT THEY'RE NOT ACTUALLY THERE!
Running low on patience... these are not iTunes files (no DRM issues).
What am I doing wrong? It shouldn't be this hard to load music, seriously now!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I use my blackberry as an external usb-flash drive to transfer music, pictures and videos.
Check this instruction:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=BlackBerryDesktopSoftware&message.id=...
And please note, when you have "Device Storage Mode" turned on, files on micro-sd card cannot be accessed from device until you unlug usb-cable from the device. You need to unplug the cable before you can access these files on your Blackberry.
So, please check the instruction.
Transferring files from computer to device is easy.
Ah, forget to say, do not use Roxio Media Manager. For God's sake
It is not necessary and you'll save a lot of your nerves.

  • I can't get CS6 to recognize R3D files. I put the plugin and the server files in the proper spot and I used 64 not 32 like it said. I still can't get it to work

    The only thing to do to get the R3D files working is download a plugin pack with 2 files in it. one goes in your plugin folder the other in some other folder. I found both original files and replaced them with the new ones. I have rebooted twice... nothing. it won't recognize R3D files. The Camera is a Red brand Epic Dragon and it puts our R3D files. R3D's are easily manipulated in Redcine, but I can't add my .mov files on it so I need to be able to work with these files in PP.

    I'm sad now
    Good thing I have a PC with 32-bit windows!
    Now, I can only assume apple is working on a 64-bit
    fix? I suppose that info/ETA is on the itunes page,
    I'll go take a look.
    Who knows what Apple plans are? I do know that they do not discuss upcoming releases of anything until its available.

  • Can't get DW to recognize new file extensions

    I'm trying to get DW to recognize the following file
    extensions as HTML: .pt, .zpt, and no extension.
    I tried to follow the instructions in the article "Changing
    and adding file extensions recognized by Dreamweaver MX": I entered
    the two extensions in all caps in the :All documents and :HTML
    documents lists in Extensions.txt. And (just as a guess) I tried
    entering two successive commas, hoping they would be interpreted as
    "no extension".
    None of these tricks has enabled me to open any of the files
    from the "Files" list in DW. I just get "Can't find a valid editor
    for this file extension."

    Thanks, Alan. I was indeed editing the wrong Extensions.txt.
    Editing the one under "\Documents and Settings" rather than the one
    under "\Program Files" did the trick (I'm running Windows XP).
    Hope springs eternal, so let me pursue the question about
    extensionless files one step more. I'm trying to use DW as the
    editor for developing a Plone site. Plone's basic HTML files are
    extensionless, and I fear it would screw up the links within Plone
    if I added extensions to these file names. However: Within Plone, I
    can designate DW as my external editor, and then (by clicking on an
    icon in the Zope Management Interface that underlies Plone) open
    the extensionless Plone files in DW (tho only in code view). How
    come DW will open a file that was tossed over from Plone, but it
    won't open the same file from its own "Files" list?

  • How can I get Firefox to recognize ODM file extensions? Help! bmathias@usf.edu

    Windows7, Firefox version? (not sure what version! it doesn't come up under Properties!) but my computer was just upgraded to Windows7 last week & Firefox reinstalled, so probably the latest version. OverDrive (ODM file extensions) is a DRM software system used by public libraries to limit checkout/access of streamed audio & e-books. But the audiobooks won't download. The troubleshooting directions say that I shoule be able to find the ODM file extension under Tools -- Options -- Applications in Firefox. But it isn't listing. Perhaps this is why the download doesn't work? How do I get Firefox to work with ODM file extension?

    Check the URL that doesn't work.
    ''If it is an http:// URL:''
    When a web server sends Firefox a file, it includes a content-type header. This is what Firefox uses to determine how to handle the file, not the file extension. The server might be sending a generic download type such as "application/octet-stream" which you cannot assign to any one application. That's just a guess because I don't use that software.
    ''If it is an st:// URL:''
    Firefox will check the Windows registry for novel protocols. This article has more information: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Register_protocol

  • I have copied my music library from two different files from extewrnal hard drive into the Itunes folder. I tunes only recognizes some of the songs. I have reloaded 5 times and can't get intunes to recognize all my songs? HELP!

    I have copied my music library from two different files from extewrnal hard drive into the Itunes folder. I tunes only recognizes some of the songs. I have reloaded 5 times and can't get intunes to recognize all my songs? HELP!

    " When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
    Correct.
    " How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer?  "
    Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

  • After OS clean install I can't get iTunes to recognize library on external drive

    I have a Mac Pro that had an SSD boot drive and a separate hard drive that contains my iTunes Library and Media files.  Because of problems with my boot drive I erased the SSD and did a clean install of Mavericks.  Now I can't get iTunes to recognize the iTunes Media files on the hard drive.  I've gone to Preferences/Advanced in iTunes and changed the "iTunes Media folder location" to point to the hard drive with the iTunes data on it.  Nothing happens when I do this. No dialogs. Nothing.  I've trashed iTunes preferences to no avail.  I don't know what to do to fix this or troubleshoot it.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Nothing should happen when you do this. This simply tells iTunes where to put anything you add after this. It doens't tell iTunes where anything already in iTunes is located.
    Hold Option, launch iTunes, select Choose library... and select the iTunes folder on the hard drive.

  • How can I get iTunes to recognize the apps that are missing from the library screen but still on the machine??

    My apps are not showing-up in the iTunes library but they are present in the apps folder. How can I get iTunes to recognize their presence?
    Library-Apps-All (only three of several hundred appear).
    Apps are still present in Users-Music-Mobile Applications
    I am running iTunes 11.0, OS X 10.8.2 on a Mac Pro. 
    Ran Disk Utility, Techtool, Disk Warrior and then reinstalled Mountain Lion, updated it and repaired permissions. No change.
    There is a file that says 'iTunes Library (damaged), which is the iTunes Database file. How can that file be re-created?
    Any technical help on replacing that file with a new, fresh one would be appreciated!

    It has always been very basic to maintain a backup of media and other important files.  If you chose to reinstall the OS without having a backup, well that just is not smart.
    If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, iTunes purchases can be redownloaded via iCloud.  Simply log into the iTunes store, select purchases, purchase history and redownload the content.
    If you are not in the US.... well, seems you just learned and important and possibly expensive lesson.

  • Bridge wont recognizw my Nikon d610.  I am running windows 8 and photoshop cs6 with 8.6 camera raw plug in.  How can I get bridge to recognize my camera?  Thanks to anyone who can help!!

    Bridge wont recognizw my Nikon d610.  I am running windows 8 and photoshop cs6 with 8.6 camera raw plug in.  How can I get bridge to recognize my camera?  Thanks!!

    That camera model has been supported since ACR 8.3 and it is most certainly supported by ACR 8.6 and ACR 8.7 (beta).
    Either you have damaged, corrupt image files, or a faulty Photoshop and/or ACR installation.
    If there are no privacy issues, you can post one of your files to the FTP service of your choice (such as Dropbox or yousendit.com), post the link to it, and someone here can take a look at it for you.

  • How can I get RoboHelp to recognize my FrameMaker installation?

    I have Technical Suite 3.5 installed and several RoboHelp projects linked to FrameMaker books.
    The Frame books were created in FrameMaker 10. I then upgraded to Technical Suite 3.5, then later upgraded my FrameMaker to 11.
    All was well, RoboHelp continued to update from the Frame book files.
    Then last week my hard disk crashed. IT provided a new disk, installed the Technical Suite and FrameMaker 11, but now when I open the RoboHelp projects and try to update them, RoboHelp displays an error message that says "Adobe FrameMaker 10 is not installed. No FrameMaker documents can be updated."
    When I try to relink the project to FrameMaker (File | Link), I get a similar message:  "This operation cannot be completed without FrameMaker 10. Install FrameMaker 10 and try again."
    How can I get RoboHelp to recognize my FrameMaker 11 installation, which it used to do prior to the crash and reinstallation?
    Thanks.
    Jerry

    We also cannot get Robohelp to recognize our FrameMaker installation. 
    We are using Robohelp 9  and Framemaker 11.
    We are in the process of moving all of our Robohelp content to Framemaker, but our project team still needs CHM files for the next release or so.  So we figured we could move our content to Frame 11, then import the Frame content into Robohelp when we needed to generate the CHM files.
    The process works great when we use RH 10 and Frame 11, but we get the following error when we use RH 9:
    "This operation cannot be completed without FrameMaker.  Install FrameMaker and try again."
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Frame 11 and RH 9, but am still getting the same error.  Buying a set of new Robohelp 10 licenses probably isn't an option.
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Sue

  • How can I get iMovie to recognize the external camera?

    iMAC running OSX 10.6.8 recognizes external HD Camera hardware, but iMovie fails to recognize the device.  I can copy files "manually" using Finder, but cannot import them directly into iMovie.  How can I get iMovie to recognize the camera?  I have already re-booted all devices and tried multiple USB ports.  In all cases the OS recognizes the camera, but iMovie does not.

    OK This camcorder is a fine camcorder. I have an earlier model of a similar camcorder from Panasonic. However, this newer model has one problem. It is not compatible with iMovie if you shoot at the highest quality mode, (which is 60P or 50P - which might be called 28MBPS mode). If you shoot 30P or 30i (even 60i) it will import to iMovie. Also, iMovie can handle 1280x720P60 and P50.
    It will definitely work on iMovie 11. It should probably work on iMovie 09. I doubt this camera will be recognized at all on iMovie 08, but it is worth a try. To see which iMovie you have, click iMovie/About and check the version. 9.04 would be iMovie 11. (9.08 is the current version, but it will not run on OSX 10.6.8). 8.06 would be iMovie 09. 7.1.4 would be iMovie 08.
    OK So how to work around this limitation?
    1) If you have Final Cut Pro X ($300) or can justify buying it, it will import 60P and 50P from this camera. However, if this seems a little pricey to you, keep reading.
    2) If you set your camera to record in 1080P30 and shoot a short clip, then iMovie should see the camera. Then I would suggest using iMovie import screen to create a CAMERA ARCHIVE of your camera. This will copy to your Mac the entire contents of the video files on your camera. You will need them later. I am assuming you have some valuable footage on the camera that you would like to have.
    3) Going forward, the simplest thing is to shoot in 1920x1080P30 and use iMovie normally. The biggest advantage of P60 or P50 is when you need really high quality slow motion effects. In other words, after you edit your movie, everything is converted to P30 or P25 anyway.
    4) If you want to retrieve the 1080P50 or 1080P60 clips that you have shot, then there are a couple of apps you can buy to convert them to a form that iMovie can edit. Two such apps are ClipWrap and Voltaic HD. There are also various free apps, but I cannot vouch for them. Do a search on google and you may find some that work.

  • Can't get iTunes to recognize library on external HD

    I have been using my work computer as my main machine to run and store my iTunes. My library got too big so I moved it onto an external HD and pointed iTunes to it. Everything was working fine until my computer had to be reformatted recently. I reinstalled iTunes and went through the steps to point it to my hard drive, and nothing. For the life of me I can't get iTunes to recognize my library on the hard drive. I looked for a while in the discussions, but couldn't find anything that addresses my problem specifically. I'm dying at work without my music... Help!

    iTunes keepes a database about your Music called iTunes Library.itl, it is normally in a folder called iTunes. When you use an external drive, you can choose to keep the library database in the iTunes folder on your c: drive or you can move it to the external drive. It is vital to know which you did.
    The critical question is - do you have an iTunes folder on your external drive containing your library file - iTunes Library.itl?
    If you do and you do the shift key start correctly, you can select choose a library and navigate to the iTunes folder on the external drive and choose iTunes library.itl.
    Here is some help on the shift key start:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304447
    If you kept your iTunes library database in the iTunes folder on your c: drive and you did not back it up, then you must start again with a new library. You can put your music in it from the external drive with File>>Add folder to Library, but you loose your counts ratings and playlists.

    Could you ask your qustion in a new thread this kind of question is always highly specific to a particular user and it is much easier to deal with it in a separate thread.

  • Finder got an error: Can't get item 1 of {document file "foo" ...}

    I have a lot of files in Corel Painter 8's RIFF format. I want to write a script that opens a file and somehow forces Corel Painter 8 to save the file as a GIF. GUI scripting may be some help with the latter; now I am concentrating on finding RIFF files and opening them in Corel Painter 8.
    I have a script that does a depth-first search of the folders starting at some root folder, using the Finder application to do the file-system stuff. It creates a list with
    set docs to every document file of pages_folder whose file type = "RIFF"
    as it loops through folders it adds to the list like this:
    set more_documents to every document file of a_folder whose file type = "RIFF"
    set docs to docs & more_documents
    My naîve mental model is that docs is a list of document-file objects. Next I have a loop that attempts to strip out files for which a GIF file already exists (and is no older than the RIFF document). This works by deleting non-matching items like so:
    if not isgifneeded then
    set docs to items 1 thru (i - 1) of docs & items (i + 1) thru (length of docs) of docs
    end if
    Finally it tries to open one of the files in Corel Painter 8 using the Finder:
    open item 1 of docs using "Corel Painter 8"
    This does not work. I get an error message
    Finder got an error: Can't get item 1 of {document file "bar" of folder "foo" of folder "blah" of folder "pdc" of folder "Users" of startup disk, ... }."
    It lists all of the files. (The error message appears in a sheet that extends off the bottom of the screen!) They are identified in the message as document-file objects. The curly braces are, I believe, the AppleScript notation for a list. I expect to be able to obtain the first element of a list with ‘item 1 of xs’. My assumption is that the Finder’s open command would expect a document file object, or at least would be able to cope with being asked to open a document. What am I missing here?
    PowerBook 12" without mini-DVI   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Hi Damian and welcome to Apple Discussions!
    One suggestion: try
    tell application "Finder" to open item 1 of docs
    (without 'using "Corel Painter 8"')
    As far as the Finder is concerned, "Corel Painter 8" is just a string of characters. And telling the Finder to open a file is just the same as double-clicking it: the Finder knows which app to use - as long as these are native Corel Painter 8 docs.
    Hope this helps,
    H

  • Can't get itunes to recognize my iphone

    I'm a total newbie, just got my iphone 3G yesterday, I've read through all the troubleshooting but I still can't get itunes to recognize my iphone. Either nothing happens, like a device isn't hooked up, or it says that the "mobile device has not been activated" Hopefully this is a simple issue that I'm just overlooking, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I do realize I'm talking to myself here haha. Well, now it seems to be even weirder because I juet kept trying and trying and it finally recognized the iphone but then after I start syncing, it cuts out after about a minute or two and I get an error message saying there was an "invalid response recieved from the device". So I hooked it back up and it recognized it again (after several tries) so I hurried and manually tried syncing some of favorite songs and then it cut out again, when I checked the phone only the ones I added the second time were there, the first round of syncing had been erased. It's a vicious cycle I'm in here! I had this phone for a day and I HATE it!! I'd rather have my dinky little razor phone that at least had video and zoom capabilities. So far all I want to do is take this thing and chuck it into the street!
