CAN'T IMPORT MIDI FILES INTO GARAGEBAND

Installed iLife '08 in order to use the new GarageBand. However, when I open up a new track and drop a MIDI file onto the window both the MIDI file and the track disappear. Any remedies?

Same here. Now that I think of it, I recently put in Logic Studio 8 and Garageband didn't open on it's own anymore. That was iLife'06. I then up-graded to iLife '08 and Garageband still doesn't open to a new project. The only way I can still open Garageband is to make a "template" out of one of their demos, then when that opens I strip the tracks out and start with new ones. By the way, I just tried to install XLN Audio's Addictive Drums. They work in Logic Studio, but do not open at all in Garageband. Error message says the plug-in is not "valid". So much for Garageband being easier than Logic.

  • Can't Import audio files into Garageband (MP3's, Aiff's). Lion OS. PLEASE HELP!!

    Everything is lower case. I dragged a file from the finder, it shows the plus sign, and say's it's converting, and it adds a new track, but nothing shows up... Dragging from itunes does even less -doesn't even show a plus sign or convert at all... I recently upgraded to Lion, and also upgraded to Garageband 11, though I never tried this with Garageband in the past.  Please help. It's sorta urgent.
    THANKS!!!!

    When you open GarageBand the image on the far right is selected to the "i" button.
    Select the Media Button on the right
    Select iTunes it should open your entire music library.  Dang and drop any song into GarageBand.  Kinda lame that Lion wont let you drang and drop from iTunes anymore, but this seems to work just as well.

  • Can't import MIDI file

    I am not able to drag a MIDI file into Garageband 3.0.4. I know I've been able to do this in the past but when I drag the file to a track or the blank area below the tracks nothing happens. Any ideas?

    Some MIDI files are in a non-standard format. if you have QuickTime Pro you can open the file in QuickTime Player and then export it as a "Standard MIDI FIle" and it will work in GB. ~~Hang

  • Can't input MIDI file into project

    Hi,
    I can't input MIDI files into a garageband project. I used to do this very easily, just drag & dropping the file into a blank GB project. That was on my previous older computer, with a previous version of GB. Now I just got a brand new iMac G5 with the most up to date version of GB, and it is not working, the MIDI files just will not drop. I even tried by doing an 'open with', selected GB as the software, and got a message saying 'Garageband cannot open files in the midi audio format' !!!
    What's even crazier is that a couple weeks ago I had the same problem, and ****** around with trying different things, and at some point GB did accept the files ! But now it doesn't, and I have no idea what I did different then, probably nothing much.
    Any ideas ? It sure is highly frustrating (trying to stay polite here) when a brand new, expensive machine cannot do the simple things that a 5 year old one could.

    Have you tried different files? Maybe one that you're sure worked on your old computer? Some midi files can be tricky.

  • Importing .midi files into iTunes library

    Hello! Can anyone please tell me how to import .midi files into my iTunes library, then convert those files into .mp3 to burn onto a CD?
    Thank you for your help!

    Does this midi file play elsewhere?
    I am getting the file from another location on my hard drive, not from a CD.
    Doesn't matter. File -> Add file to library will work if the file is compatible.
    Also, when trying to change the import settings, it seems to be for importing from a CD, not from another file location.
    It is for importing or converting.

    at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
    So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
    vs
    using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
    Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
    All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

  • Can I import html files into Buzzword?

    Can I import html files into Buzzword?

    Thank you for your post.
    Buzzword lets you import Microsoft Word (DOC, DOCX), plain text (TXT), Rich Text Format (RTF), Word 2003 XML, and Open Document Format (.odt) files. (Font substitution and other formatting changes sometimes occur on import, depending on the content of the document.) You'll need to convert your HTML file to one of the supported file types before importing to Buzzword.
    Kind Regards,

  • Can't import prores files into Premiere Pro CC or SpeedGrade CC

    Can't import prores files into Premiere Pro CC or SpeedGrade CC. But I can into After Effects CC.
    I also can't export to DNxHD files to an MXF file either.
    I do have latest Quicktime Pro installed and I also have Avid Media Composer and the other pieces of the Avid package.
    Conflict?

    I only have one account on the computer and it has Administrator priveleges.  What I am doing to make it work is opening the application using the "Run as Administrator" command (e.g., right click application shortcut on desktop, choose "Run as Administrator").  I am not a Windows guru but I would guess there is something different between opening an Application with a user that has Administrator priveleges and opening an Application choosing "Run as Administrator".  Also, your answer still does not address the fact that I can't use my jog wheel.
    Anyone else have some ideas?

  • I can't import raw files into lightroom

    I have been using lightroom 4. I shoot with a nikon d300s. I recently used a nikon D610 and now it says preview not available. It also says the the raw images aren't able to import. So I recently upgraded to Lightroom 5 and it still says preview not available. I need some suggestions on how to import them.

    I don't use nikon software.  I just use lightroom. I just got lightroom 5. I tried to update to 5.3 but couldn't find the location where to find it.

  • Can you import Dreamweaver files into Muse, how?

    Can you import Dreamweaver files into Muse, how?

    If the images aren't showing up in DW, why do you think they will show in Muse?  Obviously, something is wrong with the paths to those images.  And that will most likely be due to the underlying code.
    Can you post an example of a problem page?
