Converting IMG/ISO to wav..?

So..
I'm very new to Mac but very eager to learn more. Recently I purchased the Logic Studio box because of my long time desire to create my own music.
The kind of music I make is electronic/progressive, therefore I would love to put in some qoutes I've found a long the way. These qoutes often comes from movies. I know that for windows several programs are able to convert avi and other movie formats to wav/mp3.
So my question is; which application does Mac users use for this? Is there something 'build-in' to the Logic Studio where it is possible to convert different movie formats to wav? If it's called wav at all with a mac.
Hope to get some featback, would be very much appreciated. Best regards.

OK, I'll take a stab at this, since no one else has replied.
Disclaimer: I have never grabbed an audio track from a movie, and I'm sure there are other ways to do it, but if I needed to, here is how I would approach it:
On the Mac, Quicktime is the native movie format, and you can download Quicktime Pro from Apple for $30. Quicktime Pro will allow you to open an avi (you may need to also go out and search for free avi codecs for Quicktime first, I can't remember), and then open the movie, and go to Move Properties (Command-J), select the audio track and hit "Extract." It makes a new movie containing only the audio track, and then you can Export : "Sound to WAV."
Remember to set your movie audio settings so you don't lose any more than has already been compressed.
Hope that helps.

Converting an MP3 to WAV -- How can I convert an MP3 to wav format, 16 bit

How can I convert an MP3 to wav format, 16 bit, 44,1 khz? I like the program Switch which I know can convert MP3s, but how to I set it up for the specific settings that I need?

Just import into a logic session. Then bounce at the specs you require. Logic or Waveburner, iTunes and even Quicktime I think can each do this easily.
A question though. I am assuming you are converting an MP3 to 44.1/16 bit just so you can play the file in a consumer quality CD player?? IF so - that makes sense.
But if you are doing this because you think it will improve the sound quality of your MP3, I will save you some time here. It won't improve the sound quality at all. It will just turn the MP3 into a larger audio file.
44.1/16 bit resolution enables you to have a much better sounding file than MP3 formats, but not by going at it this way.
No offense to you if you know all of this already. I am assuming that you may not know this - because if you did you would also likely know how to convert an audio file.

Does QuickTime Pro convert an ISO DVD movie to an mp4?

I'm thinking about purchasing the Pro version of QuickTime; but what I REALLY want to do is convert some ISO DVD Image files to the QuickTime mp4 format so I can put it on my iPod or view it with my AppleTV.
Does anyone out there know if this is possible BEFORE I spend money on this?
Thanks,

Does anyone out there know if this is possible BEFORE I spend money on this?
QT does not support "muxed" MPEG2/PCM or MPEG2/AC3 au either purchase the QT MPEG-2 Playback Component ($19.99) and download the free MPEG Streamclip app or use the free HandBrake app to convert your DVD imaged content MP4/M4V content for playback on mobile devices.

Converting From Mp3 to Wav and also dividing a song.

Is it possible to convert an mp3 to .wav and then split the entire song into 10-second wavs. If there is a way, please share. Thank you. I'm using Quicktime Pro

Nathan, welcome to these discussions.
Open the .mp3 file with QT Pro.
Set the "in and out" (selection markers) to the ten seconds you wish to convert and use "Copy" from the Edit menu.
Open a new QT Player window (Control-N) and then Control-V (paste).
Choose "Export" (File menu) and then choose Sound to Wave.
Repeat for all the conversion you want to make.

How do i convert an ISO

How do i convert from ISO to Mpeg4

Sorry - confusing - My question has NOT been solved yet - can anyone help?

Convert .img to .iso

how can i covert a .img to a .iso, i have burn & i used the disk utility app but my virtualbox software can't boot from it.

If the image you are working with is not bootable, or made correctly, then when you convert it,
it is not going to work.
If it is an image of say, a bootable fat32 volume, then it is not going to be bootable when converted
to cdr format, because the file systems (fat32 and joliet) are not compatible.
A bootable fat32 volume can be made into a bootable cd, but it is a intricate process, not just
a copy exercise.
Creating bootable (el-torito) cd's can be done in OS X, but it has to be done from the command line
(Terminal.app), not from the GUI Disk Utility.

http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/cdrecord.html
hdiutil supports generating El Torito-style bootable ISO9660
filesystems, which is commonly used for booting x86-based
hardware. The specification includes several emulation modes.
By default, an El Torito boot image emulates either a 1.2MB,
1.44MB, or 2.88MB floppy drive, depending on the size of the
image. Also available are "No Emulation" and "Hard Disk
Emulation" modes, which allow the boot image to either be
loaded directly into memory, or be virtualized as a parti-
tioned hard disk, respectively. The El Torito options should
not be used for data CDs.
Some of the above examples include examples using mkisofs from jorge schilling's
cdrtools. hdiutil in SL has most of the same functionality built in as mkisofs.
cdrtools can be compiled on OS X.
If all this gets too deep for you, there is always Parallels Desktop or VMware Fusion.
Good luck with your VM project.

How do I convert img file to VDI

I have downloaded a disk image of Google's Chromium OS (from developer Hexxeh made available at http://download-chromiumos.appspot.com/ I have the 64 bit version) both the files here are downloaded as .img files and Mac OS X says it cannot mount these files I get a warning no mountable file systems. I really need a VDI though I read there is a way to convert an img file in the Terminal to VDI (this is from 2009 though) you enter
VBoxManage convertfromraw -format VDI [filename with extension] [chromiumos]. [filename]vdi it says converting from raw image file but then immediately gives this error:
VBoxManage: error: Cannot open file "[chromiumos_image]": VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
Anyone know how I can get this to work or where I can find a working VDI to download that is recent. I have Hexxeh's earlier Chrome OS build 4028 on his site chromeos.hexxeh.net working but it is from April of last year. Any ideas how to get this to work or where to find a working file. I have tried Arnoldthebat's VDI images from November-December 2013 and even newer but they don't work. I'm told since October 13, 2013 future builds of his don't work in VirtualBox. Unfortunately, he doesn't have any older builds available for download to his site. I can only get the November-December 2013 builds or newer 2014 builds.
FYI: My MacBook Pro is now on OS 10.9.2 Mavericks.

Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing video with iTunes and iPod
You can try placing the movie in the Move library of iTunes and selecting it and going to the Advanced tab of iTunes and selecting Create Ipod and iPhone version.
If tha does not work yu will need to use a conversion program like the free Handbrake program. Just Google for it.

How do I convert a .cda to .wav in Soundbooth CS4?

I have just installed the Premiere CS4 production suite which includes Soundbooth CS4 v 2.0.1.
With earlier versions of this suite (Premiere and Audition rather than Soundbooth), I could open .CDA (music cd) files in Audition and convert them to .WAV files and then import these into Premiere. It was a frustrating two step process, but at least it worked.
Now, with the CS4 suite, it is not letting me import any .CDA files (error message says the file format is not supported) to either Audition or Premiere. I even tried going through Encoder, but that doesn't work either.
How in the world are we supposed to bring in music from a CD? This should have been resolved so we don't have to go through the Soundbooth step. But now it won't even let me do that! Adobe sure is turning out to be very frustrating!!

If not you need to trace it either automatically or manually

Convert from ISO 8859-1 encoding to UTF-8

Hi
My Os name is 'SunOS ut51109 5.10 Generic_144500-19 sun4v sparc SUNW,T5440'.
I want to change the encoding of the existing .bcp file from ISO 8859-1 to UTF-8 with out using any temp files as these .bcp file will be pointed by an external table.
here is the command I issued in the script(ksh file)
iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t UTF-8 file1.bcp > file1.bcp
After the script got executed file1 is empty(showing 0 bytes).
Please correct me or let me know the syntax to be followed to write the data into the same file in UTF-8 format.
Thanks
kartheek

You cannot do conversion from ISO 8859-1 to UTF-8 in-place because the UTF-8 version will generally be longer (unless you convert a pure ASCII file, which does not need conversion in the first place). Therefore, you would have to overwrite what you have not read yet. Instead, convert to a new file with a temporary name, drop the original and rename the temporary back to original. This is not that complicated.
If the problem is that you want to overwrite a file already open by the database, then rename the incoming file first and then convert copying to the target.

Convert CD iso to DVD

Hi,
I am wanting to convert a bootable CD iso to create a bootable DVD. Can I easily do this?
Thanks

Indeed, you can burn any CD ISO on DVD media. CD types not supported by DVD media can't be saved in ISO format.

How Do I Convert iTunes Songs to .wav files

Is there any way to convert iTunes downloaded music to .wav format so they can be used in Adobe Photoshop?

If your purchases are the new DRM free files from EMI, simply change your import preferences to mp3, then right click on the song you wish to convert, then click on "convert to".
If the purchase is not one of the new files, you can burn your purchase to an audio CD, that audio CD can be used like any CD you might purchase at your local store.

Convert Windows media Player WAV file to QuickTime

I have been asked to e mail a windows media player WAV file in the Quick Time format. My PC has the free Quick Time 7.2 version. How can I convert these files from a WAV file to the Quick Time format? I see a Quick Time upgrade that appears to do the trick, just want to make sure. Thanks!!

Clears the air a bit. Your file is .wma (Windows Media Audio) format.
Mac users that have installed http://flip4mac.com will be able to hear the file. Older Mac users would use the Windows Media Player for Mac to listen to it.
No conversion is needed for most Mac users.
There are hundreds of third party apps that can convert audio and video formats. Some are free and others offer free trial conversions. A little Google searching should help you find what you need.
