Converting from MP3 to AAC not working

When I try to convert any of my songs in iTunes I get an error message saying: "An unknown error occurred (0x77686174)." This only happens when trying to convert to AAC. I have tried to convert to AIFF, and Apple Loseless Encoder and it works. I have also tried the default 128kbps and many others. Can anyone help?

hi killbrad!
hmmm. i've seen posts on this topic. see:
http://ipodgarage.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=494&sid=79e818827474b53cfdab3c8b619 aa0e2
i've also seen toonz say (my fault for any misreading of her post) that it's a QT error message saying something like "codec not found". so if the workarounds aren't helpful for you, we could try a careful standalone QT reinstall. see:

keep us posted.

  • Converting from MP3 to AAC

    Several thousand of my songs are in the MP3 format. My question is twofold: first, is there that big a difference in sound quality between MP3 and AAC? I do not care about space restrictions, as I have plenty of room on my 80GB. Second, if I do begin to cnvert these songs to AAC, is a second copy put on my computer as well as in iTunes? If so, where can I find it, as I cannot find duplicates of the ten or so that I have already converted. Thanks in advance. Just want to know if it worth the time and effort to make the conversion.

    Converting creates a second file in the format you are converting to. The original file is not changed so you end up with two copies of the song, once in each format. However it's always preferable to re-rip from the original uncompressed format rather than converting from one lossy format to another.
    For reference, you'll get an extensive comparison of the various formats on these pages:

  • Converting from 2D to 3D not working for me

    I am trying to follow the tutorial "Converting from 2D to 3D" and it is 'not working for me.'  When I open the image 'archer...' I do not get layers, but only the background image, and consequently no 3DAxis widget appears.
    This is my first try at this, and I am stuck trying to figure out what is wrong.
    I am running Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, version 11.01 on Vista, with 4GB of RAM, 500GB HD
    Processor speed 2200MHz
    NVIDIA GeForce 7100
    Memory available to PS 3255MB
    Memory used by PS 70 percent
    If anybody could please point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it!

    it can work with the Background layer just fine, go to 3d->New Shape from Layer->Cone (or whatever) and then select one of the 3D tools and it should appear. Note though that OpenGL drawing must be enabled in Edit->Preferences->Performance to be able to see it.

  • Converting from aiff to mpg not working

    I followed the instructions provided here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1550
    to convert an aiff file to an mp3 file, but after I do the converstion the file is still an aiff. I do a 'get info' and it says it is an aiff file, and also I try dragging it to my desktop and it an aiff file.
    I originally created the file in garageband and imported it into itunes. The file is 20 minutes long.
    Strangely I can convert a short song of 3 minutes successfully from aiff to mg3.
    Any ideas of what could be happening here and how to fix it?

    iTunes converts but makes a new file and also leaves the original.

  • Reopen All Windows from Last Session is not working

    The option Reopen All Windows from Last Session is not working, is there any other way to recover the tabs from my last session?
    Last night I fell asleep and my friend shut down my laptop.
    When I woke up in the morning I couldn't restore my last session which had several tabs opened for my research.
    I don't know the exact date when I found them, so I haven't been able to find them in History either.
    I've looked around on the internet, but haven't been able to find anything that helped me out.
    Hope you can help me! Thanks.

    Restart your Mac.
    Check the box for:  Reopen windows when logging back in
    Then check History >  Reopen Windows from Last Session

    The "always match my default message font" option in the Signature preferences from Mac Mail does not work if e-mail is received in other Mail Software. How can I make it work?

    I found this plugin which solved pretty much all of my mail font rendering problems.  It is designed for Lion, so don't know whether it will work but thought I would offer it up.

    Hello SavannahSweetie,
    I was looking into the issue you are desribing, and found a great article for troubleshooting wifi connections with iOS devices. It's called iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections and can be found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398.
    Start with this section, and work your way down if needed.
    Basic troubleshooting
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and then on again.
    Verify that you are in range of your Wi-Fi router or base station.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and Cable/DSL modem are connected to power and turned on.
    Check whether other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware.For AirPort Base Stations, refer to this article for information about firmware updates. For third-party Wi-Fi routers, check the manufacturer's website for details on updating your firmware.
    Restart your iOS deviceHold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Wish to post KeyNote file as pdf. Export from KN to iW not working

    Wish to post KeyNote file as pdf. Export from KN to iW not working - get blank screen. Tried to upload PDF to mobile me and link to that file - also didn't work. I'm not familiar with iFrames but have read about them in this forum - is that my only option? Why wouldn't a KN export work?
    Thanks, Brian

    I have just tried this with a test site and publishing to a folder and it does work perfectly for me.
    I had a Keynote document already so all I did was click on File and then selected the Print option. I then selected the save as pdf option the the pdf document was created on my desktop instantly.
    All I then did was open iWeb and type some words in a text box My Prices. I then highlighted My Prices and opened the Inspector and went to Hyperlink and clicked on the option Hyperlink to a file. I then selected the pdf file from my desktop.
    I then used ftp to a folder on my desktop and when I opened the appropriate page, I click on the words My Prices and the pdf file opened straight away.
    As OT has suggested, check that you have linked to the correct file. If it does not work, either you have not created the pdf correctly or at all or you have not linked to the correct file.
    As I said, it worked for me.

    Sorry for my english i'm spanish

    I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc).  Any suggestions?  What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

  • Windows 7 Defrag from command line does not work

    We are running Windows 7 in a virtualized environment. When running windows defrag using schedule or from command line, it does not work. The command that I am executing as administrator is
    C:\Windows\system32>defrag /c
    Microsoft Disk Defragmenter
    Copyright (c) 2007 Microsoft Corp.
    It displays the above message and exits back to the command prompt. However if I run the command defrag C: it does work. Defragmenting from the GUI works as well as long as both the disks (C: and System Reserved) are selected and when I click on
    Defragment disks, works fine.
    I am concerned about defrag running from the task scheduler with the command "defrag /c" (auto scheduled using Configure Schedule... from Disk Defragmenter) does not work and the system never gets defragmented automatically.
    This happens only with some of the windows 7 VM's that we have.
    There are no entries in Event Log that point to the defrag (using task scheduler). Any ideas what may be going on?

    Hi,
    Could you defrag as below method:
    1. Open Disk Defragmenter by clicking the Start button. In the search box, type
    Disk Defragmenter, and then, in the list of results, click
    Disk Defragmenter.
    2.Under Current status, select the disk you want to defragment.
    3.To determine if the disk needs to be defragmented or not, click Analyze disk. Administrator permission required If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    Once Windows is finished analyzing the disk, you can check the percentage of fragmentation on the disk in the
    Last Run column. If the number is above 10%, you should defragment the disk.
    4.Click Defragment disk. Administrator permission required If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  • Yesterday suddenly the sound output from my Headphone is not working

    Hi, I've Mac Book Pro 15" with Retina display. Yesterday suddenly the sound output from my Headphone is not working. When I tried to solve this, I've noticed in system preferences it's jumping from Internal speakers to Head phone and vice versa. Can anyone help me on this issue please? I am using the original Apple Headset only.

    Tell us:
    OS X version ?
    What may have changed prior to the onset of the issue of "... suddenly... not working..." and " ... preferences ... jumping from ..." ? Software added, upgraded, updated?
    what precidely do you mean by " ... preferences ... jumping from ..." ?

    I see that your Question has languished for some period of time without response. You have posted your issue in Using Apple Support Communities whose topic is 'How to use this forum software's interface, features and/or how to find what you wish'. It is a relatively low traffic and inappropriate forum for your problem. I will ask our Hosts to move it to " MacBook Pro " where it may get a more rapid response from your fellow users.
