Cannot import audio to FCE from mpeg files on desktop
I have videos from Streamclip mpeg 2 files that work fine when played on Streamclip (video and audio) but when imported into FCE for editing there is no audio. The audio box is checked but greyed out in system settings. Is that a problem? MAC Snowleopard.
OK. I was told when I bought FCE that I needed Streamclip MPEG4 ($20 from Apple) to first transfer all my VOB's and any videos I had into streamclip then take those files to FCE. As I say these videos play video only in FCE but play video and audio in streamclip and DVD player.

I'm trying to put my svhs video tapes on my harddrive. I am using the Pinnacle Movie Box DV from the VCR then Firewire from Movie Box to Macbook Pro. I get the video but no sound. This also happens in Imovie, but in Quicktime pro I get both the video signal and Audio signal. I have also tried connecting the line in and the same problem occurs, but again its ok in quicktime. It doesn't seem to be the moviebox problem, its just that Final cut express/Imovie is just not getting the audio portion. This the first time I'm using FCE or Imovie. There must be something I'm not getting. I need to get this video onto my hard drive before I lose all these memories. Please help. I've tried asking this on many forums, alot of peeps, but no answers.
One more thing... What would be the best format/file type to record to. For now, all I need is to save them to the harddrive to edit at a later time. I was thinking H.264.Ok that worked. I clicked on Easy setup
Formats: (all formats) Rate: (all rates)
Use: DV-NTSC DV Converter (Whats difference between that and DV-NTSC BASIC) ???
Then Clicked on File
Scrolled down to New Project and then capture. WORKED thank You.
Now I'll have to figure out the program but I'm sure I can do that. One more question... What format should I save it in? H.264, AVchd etc? At the time I just want to get all the video tapes onto the harddrive, then in the future, edit them and maybe get them to dvd/and leave them as files for future formats. -

No audio when exporting from mpeg to flv
We have two PCs with Premiere Pro and AME installed, and just upgraded to CC. On one computer exporting works fine, on the other one, I'm losing the audio when exporting from mpeg to flv. I have used the same preset as on the other computer (that works) and also tried other presets that came with AME.
I can't figure out why this wouldn't work on one but works fine on the other? Anyone who knows?How are you determining that the FLV has no audio? Are you playing it back in VLC Player or importing it into Flash?
Also, do you see a full range of formats on the system where you don't hear audio? If some formats are missing this might be a licensing issue. Also check if AME recognizes audio on the MPEG source (hover over it in the queue and look for audio info in the tool tip). -
Cannot import audio CD, but can play! error: required disk cannot be found
cannot import audio CD, but can play! When I try to import it appears an error: required disk cannot be found!
Does someone knows a solution?There is no such thing as a "parser plug-in".
That's not entirely accurate. In CS4 we use "EPS Parser.8BY" to assist in parsing of illustrator files. This plugin is normally located at:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS4\Support Files\Plug-ins\Format\EPS Parser.8BY"
Is this missing for some reason?

Importing WLI XML templates from A File...
I am looking for some sample code that illustrates importing templates as XML from
a file into WLI' BPM.
I need this immediately.
ThanksNO, DO NOT USE THE MODEL TAG! that converts your lovely XML
into a hideous tree of dynamic Objects. Do not do that.
Your problem is simply that you forgot to call the init()
function. Call it from the creationComplete event on the
Application tag and you will be fine.

I cannot import audio files to iTunes
I just downloaded an audiobook with 8 chapters from a website. The files are "MPEG file". Is it the reason why I cannot import or add them to the library in iTunes ?
I had the first volume of the same audiobook, it had a "film MPEG" name even though it was audio ! and it sit on my iTunes library nicely.
I must add that I got the iTunes 7 yesterday, so … maybe it is connected ?
can anyone give me a hint ?
thanks a lot

iMac 1.25 Ghz power PC G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)Thank you for taking the time to answer. I was very busy until now and could not thank you earlier.
Anyhow, searching and searching, I found the solution to my problem. iTunes was not to blame. What happened is that I did not download the files "really". Because of my ignorance about how to download I only saved an "image" of them (kind of…) and that is why it could not play or get added to the iTunes library.
After understanding that I went back to the site and there they were, ready to be downloaded for good ! I could do the downloading in a proper way and everything was fine with iTunes.

thank you again for you time

My bookmarks disappeared just before I left for Christmas. Not having time to deal with it then, I found a copy of html bookmarks that seemed to be current and made a copy of it. This copy starts up Firefox and opens in a window. I can use it to get to my sites. However I cannot import it to my bookmarks. I also cannot add a bookmark in real time. Using your forum, I decided to add the plug-in Torbutton. It did not help and something keeps turning it off. I even tried to import my old IE bookmarks since they have not changed a lot. Everything acts like it has worked but nothing shows up.
No, I see the three areas at the bottom of the Bookmark area that you refer to, but that also highlights an issue. When I want to save a story to my Reading List and click on Share then "Add to Reading List" then go back to look at what is stored in the Reading List, my recently-saved item is not there.
I looked thru the History tab and the Reading List tab and have been in the Bookmark tab. But even when I Save a Bookmark, that newly-saved Bookmark does not show up in the Bookmark area.
But then again, the next day (and actually just in the last half-hour) all of the functionality came back. When I look at the Bookmarks, suddenly, again, all of the Bookmarks that are on my Safari browser on my iMac are now there, and I can now Save a Bookmark.
It keeps coming in and out and that is what is driving me a little nuts.
Thanks. -
when streaming mpeg files through the internet, or even dragging mpeg files onto iTunes, there seems to be no sound. However, when viewing wmv files, there is no problem. Does anyone know of any downloads or quick cures for this problem???
Hi Jak-E and Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forums
<<AAC-encoded files rival the quality of audio CDs, and sound as good as or better than MP3 files encoded at the same or even a higher bit rate. For example, a 128 Kbps AAC file should sound as good as or better than a 160 Kbps MP3 file. Because the bit rate is lower, the AAC file will also be smaller than the MP3 file. AAC files enable you to store the most music on your hard disk or iPod. You can fit the same number of songs on an audio CD using Apple Lossless, AIFF, or WAV; the song files are smallest with the Apple Lossless encoder.>>
MP3 files can be fairly large. Make certain you have at least 15% free internal hard drive space. Go to iTunes/Preferences/Advanced and make sure you have your sound preferences set appropriately.
Choosing MP3 custom import settings
If you use MP3 encoding, you can use custom settings for greater control over the quality and size of imported files.
To use custom settings with MP3 encoding:
Choose iTunes > Preferences, click Advanced, and then click Importing.
Choose MP3 Encoder from the Import Using pop-up menu.
Choose Custom from the Setting pop-up menu.
In the dialog that appears, choose settings:
Stereo Bit Rate: The higher the Mono or Stereo kilobits per second (Kbps), the higher the audio quality and the larger the file size. The most common bit rate for stereo MP3 files is between 128 Kbps and 192 Kbps. Lower bit rates are more appropriate for sound files containing voice recordings (as opposed to music).
Variable Bit Rate Encoding (VBR): This setting varies the number of bits used to store the music depending on the complexity of the music. This can help keep file size to a minimum.
Sample Rate: The number of times per second that the music waveforms are captured digitally. The higher the sample rate, the higher the quality and the larger the file size. Don't choose a sample rate higher than the rate used originally to store the music or you'll waste space. CD quality, for example, is 44.100 kHz, so choosing a higher rate when you're encoding from a CD is unnecessary. In general, the best choice is Auto, which uses the same rate as the original music.
Channels: If you don't have stereo speakers or if your audio files are monaural, choose.Mono (mono files are about half the size of stereo files). If you'll be listening to your MP3 files using your stereo system, choose Stereo or Auto. Auto converts tracks that are already monaural into mono MP3 files, and stereo tracks into stereo MP3 files.
Stereo Mode: In Normal mode, your MP3 files contain one track for the right stereo channel and one track for the left. In many cases, the two channels contain related information. In Joint Stereo mode, one channel carries the information that's identical on both channels, and the other channel carries the unique information. At bit rates of 160 Kbps and below, this can improve the sound quality of your converted audio.
Smart Encoding Adjustments: Select to have iTunes analyze your encoding settings and music source, and then adjust settings to maximize quality.
Filter Frequencies Below 10 Hz: Filtering inaudible frequencies results in smaller, more efficient files without perceptible loss of quality.
And... post your query in the iTunes forum here: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
Importing songs from the Internet
You can add audio files that you find on the Internet to your iTunes library.
Important: Don't steal music. Some websites require you to register before you can play or download files.
To download a song from a website into iTunes:
Open iTunes.
When you find an audio file you want on a website, click the file to download it to your computer.
Drag the file to the iTunes window.
Some websites permit you to download the actual audio file. On other websites, the download is a link (the URL) to the audio file; when you play it, iTunes finds the song on the Internet and "streams" it live to your computer. This kind of file displays a broadcast symbol (shown above) next to the song in iTunes.
When you buy songs from the iTunes Store, the files are downloaded to your hard disk and automatically added to your iTunes library.

Flash 8 Video Encoder, audio/video discrepancy from mpeg
Two questions...
First, more urgently, I've been given an origianl
720xsomething mpeg format video, and I'm trying to bring it over to
flash... I use the flash 8 video encoder, which does a phenomenal
job of keeping video quality while vastly reducing file size, but
in this case, (unlike some others in the past) I'm getting a
bizarre discrepancy between the speed of audio vs. speed of
video... I can't find a way to force the mpeg (or flash encoder
software) to TELL me what the frame rate of the original mpeg is,
and even when i attempt to force it to 24 or 25 during conversion
to flv, it doesn't seem to bother matching it up to the audio...
when i take the result and export it from flash, i'll try, at 24
the video is going too fast for audio, but at 23 its going too
slow...
and this SEEMs related to 2nd question.. I took about 15
solid minutes of video of a particularly nice sunset in
progression, with the hopes of compressing it down to about 30-60
seconds for effect... but it seemed like, no matter what frame rate
I tried to compress it to with the encoder, it just drew each frame
out to a set length, and even if i tried to export the flash really
fast, it remained at the epicly slow frame rate...
is there a relation? what am I doing wrong?
is there a way to detect the ACTUAL frame rate of the
original mpeg... is there a way to force the audio and video to
remained sync'd up? Seems the that problem is, if i go with the
default 'Same as source' I'm left to guess what that might be when
exporting from flash, as nothing ever actually tells me what that
source frame rate actually was! Is there some natural audio
compression business inside mpeg video that works fine for mpeg
video, but the flash encoder can't handle well? I've tried it with
about a billion different frame rate, audio data rate, quality, and
export settings, and have yet to get a sync.
Thanks in advance!I should have been more clear.
I changed the file name from .vob to .mpg and then tried to
add the video file to Flash 8 Video Encoder and received the
following error message:
"You won't be able to encode this file. Your computer doesn't
have the necessary codec or the file is corrupt."
Currently,
I use ffmpegx to convert the .vob to .dv and then, I import
the .dv into Flash 8 Video Encoder and convert it to a .flv....
I can use ffmpegx to go straight to a .flv, but the file size
is larger b/c the compression is different, not On2 VP6...
I would like to skip the middle step because my files are
very large and it takes extra time. -
Keynote 6 cannot import the old Keynote 4 (2008) files, please help
Dear all,
I notice that Keynote 6 (current) cannot import files created with the old Keynote 4 (2008).
On the other hand, Keynote 4 is obsolete and I no longer trust it for mefdion/long term use.
I have >100 critical files, yet using simple functions (no audio/video/animations).
I prefer not to insytall Keynote 5, think about the mess of having 3 KN versions installed.
Does anybody know a workaround?
Thank you.The current consensus is to use Keynote 5.3 (iWork 09) for files created with previous versions of Keynote as older files do not open successfully in 6.1. New presentations can then be created in 6.1 if you want to use it.
I suggest you obtain iWork 09, available from Amazon and Ebay, and you can remove version 4. -

Outlook 2013: Imported or copied items from .pst file disappear after a few seconds
I am migrating from an open source email platform (Axigen) to Outlook/Exchange 2013. The Axigen system uses a connector for Outlook allowing users to use Outlook as a client.
To move from Outlook 2010 with the Axigen server to Outlook 2013 with Exchange I have exported the entire mailbox from Outlook 2010 to a .pst file which I am then trying to import into Outlook 2013.
The import process appears to complete successfully and the imported items show up in Outlook 2013 - but only for a second or two. Then they disappear completely, nowhere to be found. This happens with ontacts, emails and calendar items and the result
is the same whether I import the entire mailbox or just a folder at a time.
If I OPEN the .pst file into Outlook 2013 everything in it looks perfectly OK, I can view items with no problems, all folders are there with their correct content. Now if I try to move or copy
items from the opened .pst file into the Outlook 2013 mailbox, I get the exact same symptoms as when importing. Items show for a couple of seconds and then disappear. If I copy or move a
folder, the folder remains in the Outlook 2013 folder tree but the items in it disappear.
Why would items be perfectly visible and readable from an opened .pst file but disappear when they are copied into the new 2013 mailbox?
They are not visible in OWA either, btw, so this is not just Outlook not displaying them, they are really gone. Checking the folder size in Outlook shows an empty folder (size 0, 0 messages). I have tried the /cleanviews switch when starting Outlook.
This has me completely stumped. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!More strangeness:
I set up an Android phone to sync with this account just now. I imported my contacts list from the phone into the Exchange account. After sync, all the contacts are perfectly visible on the phone, but NOT in Outlook 2013 or in OWA...
So maybe it is some sort of display filter thing after all?
That's unbelieveable that message is visiable in Android phone through Exchange ActiveSync but cannot be viewd in OWA...
For the database session, we may enable
Exchange Mailbox Audit logging(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff461937(v=exchg.150).aspx) to check if the message is indeed upload into DB from Outlook.
For the client level, please enable Outlook logging to log what happens inside outlook to aid in your troubleshooting.
We can enable Outlook logging in Outlook 2013 under File > Options > Advanced > "Other" section
Log files are created as .etl files and stored in %userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp. A new log file is created each time Outlook starts.
Cheers,
Tony Chen

Okay, I have enabled Outlook logging. However I cannot find any way to read those .etl files.
I also enabled audit logging in Exchange but as I understand it that will not log operations performed by the mailbox owner, only non-owner access.
I think I am close to giving up on this. I can't believe an enterprise email platform will simply delete messages copied into a mailbox without any error message whatsoever, and no way for an admin to track what is happening.
It is definitely happening when syncing with Exchange, so there must be something in these items (and
remember this happens not only to email messages, but also to Contacts) that makes the Exchange server decide these messages should be discarded witout warning.
One other thing: Folders copied from the .pst are visible on Outlook (although their contents are deleted) but not on ActiveSync clients. If I create a new folder in the mailbox, it syncs as it should. -
Cannot import audio into Captivate 3.0
We created WAV files using Adobe Audition. When we try to use
the Import > Audio feature we get the following error:
Unable to decode and import the selected WAV/MP3 File.
I am able to listen to the file through Windows media player
and Windows sound recorder without any issue, I just cannot get it
to import into my Captivate project.
any ideas on what we can do?Welcome to our community, danibo83
If you are seeing this when attempting to use a gallery sound
that ships with Captivate 4, then I would certainly call it a bug.
I would also strongly encourage you to report it to Adobe as same.
