Can't import (to Win) what I exported (from Mac)

Alas, I must return to intel and native windows again... oh the shame.
Anyway, in prep for the move I think I did as instructed... I 'selected' ALL of my songs and 'exported' them to / as a 'data DVD'.
So now I have 180 some mpeg-4 files on a DVD, with an XML file called 'ContentsDB.xml' and I have tried many times to 'import' via iTunes but cannot make it work. Indeed, even Windows media player "cannot read" the files.
Again, selecting the ContentsDB file as the target of the import does nothing... iTunes doesn't even give me an error message.
Any ideas? Thanks for your time.

Dear b noir,
Thank you very, very much for your quick response... I did remove three Sonic Solutions (Roxio) products that came bundled with my ThinkPad and was able to Import from the Export DVD I had created. But now I find that only the titles have been copied in, and each song file must be "located" when I click on it to play it.
Did I miss something?

  • I can't import a table contains BLOB column  from one user to another user.

    1) I create two user both have connect role,and each has its own tablespace, DDL:
    create user d2zd identified by d2zd default tablespace d2zd quota unlimited on d2zd account unlock;
    grant connect to d2zd;
    create user d3zd identified by d3zd default tablespace d3zd quota unlimited on d3zd account unlock;
    grant connect to d3zd;
    2)Then enter oracle as d2zd and create a table contains BLOB column and insert data to the table.
    3) export d2zd as follow:
    exp d2zd/d2zd file=d2zd.dmp
    4) import to d3zd as follow:
    imp d3zd/d3zd fromuser=d2zd touser=d3zd file=d2zd.dmp
    the question is the table with BOLB colum can't be import,
    it says:have no privilege on tablespace d2zd.
    How can I import a table contains BLOB column from one user to another user?

    Hi - the reason for as our friend already told ist that a blob can be stored outside of the table segment, in another Tablespace, This is for performance reason.
    Sou you would need to have Quota on two tablespaces.
    the one which holds the table segment the other which holds the blob(segment).

  • Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    What arrow?
    Have you tried opening the file in FCP?
    If there is no error message and it will not play in QT7, it is quite possible the file is corrupted. You will need to go back to the original project and re-export the file.

  • How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done?

    How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC. 

    No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either.  It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected.  VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB.  All of which cannot be opened or selected.
    Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC.  Is that the same?  Thank you for your time and response.

  • Why i can't import a clip of AVCHD format from iPhoto originaly from my Sony NEX-5N

    why i can't import a clip of AVCHD format from iPhoto originaly from my Sony NEX-5N?

    Hi there. For anyone searching, here are the results of my research and corresponding advice back to Sony...
    Thanks, your comments looked correct but did not solve my problem. You may be interested to know after much testing and research, I was able to ascertain that some of the camera's AVCHD settings iMovie cannot see at all (only some, which made it even harder to figure out!). Plus, if you have recorded movie clips in more than one format to the memory card (MP4 or any one of the AVCHD's), iMovie cannot see any of the AVCHD's.
    Bottom line - forgo the benefits of AVCHD on the Sony NEX-5N and just use MP4 until Apple makes it easier.

  • Can I import (or create) default Lightroom settings from an existing document?

    Can I import (or create) default Lightroom settings from an existing document and save them? Make them a personal default set opening with all future LR catalogs?

    Thank you, John. That brings up the question: How to build a template?
    BTW, I'm not trying to duplicate a catalog; moving it to a larger drive. When opening the newly moved catalog in LR, my former settings (identity plate, defaults, etc.) didn't migrate, though I copied the LR settings folder and its contents into the new location (drive) and opened my develop presets.

  • How can I import contacts into my icloud contacts from an excel file?

    I need to add contacts to my icloud contact data base.  Can I import from an Excel file?
    Thanks,

    Not directly, export from Excel to a .csv file, then convert the .csv file to a .vcf (vCard) file. Then iCloud can import the vCard file.
    Here is a free csv to vcard conversion utility.

    When I want to do an export from Oracle 8.0.6 to Oracle 7.3.4, I use the exp and imp from Oracle 7.3.4. This way the whole excercise works fine. The only thing I have to do is run the script catexp7.sql on the Oracle 8.0.6 version (delivered with Oracle 8.0.6). Perhaps You can try the same thing with Oracle 8.0.4, use the exp and imp from 8.0.4 to do the work.

  • Can't visualise text on PDF files exported from PS

    PDF files exported from PS (levels included as we need them to be selectable) have corrupted text. When opening the saved pdf file, a part of text doesn't appear. It is usually starting from the second chapter of text. Any idea of how to solve this problem?

    Hi Marco,
    For now we have only fixed this in CC, but we are aware this problem also affects CS6 users and is a significant problem for many people. At this time, I don't know of any workaround in CS6 for this bug other than to break text up into smaller blocks or use another more text-oriented application like InDesign. While I can't comment on future releases, your feedback on this issue is important to us, and I can say, "there's always hope"...
    If you'd like to discuss this further, or send us a file that exhibits the problem, please contact me directly. My email address is my last name @ adobe.com.

  • Can only import one song at a time from a CD, then get conversion error.

    I have been using iTunes for several years to import tracks from CDs.  Until now I have not really experienced any problems - though I have not had need to do so for some time.  I have just tried importing a few new CDs and am experiencing the following problem.
    a)  First track is imported OK.
    b)  iTunes gets about half way through the second track and then errors with this message:
    "Error occurred while converting file "<track_name>". An unknown error occurred (-1303)."
    ...followed by:
    "The iTunes Library File cannot be saved.  An unknown error occurred (13010)."
    Note:
    1.  The first track is saved in the media folder OK.
    2.  The library file (iTunes Library.xml) is being still being updated with the new track each time.
    3.  I can resume importing the CD with the track that has just failed and it will import OK, but the next track will fail as above.
    4.  The same issue occurs regardless of the the format to which I am converting (I've tried both mp3 and AAC so far).
    I am using the latest available version of iTunes for Windows (11.1.3.8).
    I am using Windows 7 64-bit.
    I have checked the web for similar instancves of this problem but without success.
    Any ideas??

    i also have the same problem.. it's so annoying!
    i haven't yet found out why this is happening.. but i have found a way to start adding lots of songs at one time..
    in my case, i am adding from my music folders in my C drive.. so i open the folder using 'my computer' and select all the music i want by holding the Ctrl key.. then i make the music folder window smaller and then put my itunes page back up.
    while the music folder window is showing on top of the itunes window page, i press control again and click on one of the highlighted songs (which then picks up all the others i have highlighted) and drag them on top of the word LIBRARY (not MUSIC) until it lights up, this then adds my big group of songs to my library in itunes, then i just right click on my ipod section and press sync.
    i have a new ipod 30gb and am using the new itunes 7
    i never had this problem with my old ipod mini or the itunes version that came with that
    hope this helps

  • How can I import to my iMac's Aperture from my MacBook Air?

    Hello!
         I started working with relativily small librarie in my MacBook air, it has a size of 12GB more or less.
         My question is: how can I import/merge this library to my iMac library.
    Thanks.
    Federico

    Whatever you can.  Dropbox.  Ethernet.  Firewire.  Thumb-drive.  I'm pretty sure you can set up an ad-hoc wireless network between the two machines.

  • How can I import eex files into Applications EUL from the unix command line

    How can I import *.eex and *.dis files into an Applications EUL from the unix command line?
    Thanks

    Hi
    The simple answer is you either have to use the client tool DIS51ADM to import files using the command line (Discoverer Admin is a windows only client tool), or the Java command line which needs a browser.
    In theory if you have a browser running on your Unix box you may be able to use the Java command line to make this work.
    Best wishes

  • Can you set PDF zoom level when exporting from ID?

    I do many documents for proof and regardless of how the end user is going to view them, I like them to open as a full page ("Fit Page" zoom level) - I want the viewer to get the overall impact of the layout before they see just the top half or upper corner.
    Right now, I export from ID and have to manually set the zoom level  in Properties from within Acrobat Pro. Is there ANY way to set a default export zoom level to save this step, which I have to do many times on most days?

    Only if you export using File > Export > Adobe PDF  (Interactive). Not if you're using File > Export > Adobe PDF (Print),
