Distorted Audio -- not clipped or in the red but sounds like its both

I have a audio-distorted interview that sounds like its in the red-- but its not and is clean of clipping -- what could be the problem?

One more question-- if I have interviews where the audio peaks above 12 and are also too low to hear in the same clip-- how can I mediate that? Is there an effect that normalizes both without going through with the pen tool and bringing up lows/bringing down highs?
Mmm...some clarity's required here. When you say 'peaks above 12' are you talking about peaks during playback above -12 dB on the Audition meter? If so, there's nothing wrong with that - that's pretty normal. When you say 'too low to hear in the same clip' are you talking about too low to hear it when it's being recorded, or too low to hear afterward when you play it back? If it's peaking at -12 dBFS, you should be able to hear it completely clearly.

When I have two clips, one above the other, I would like to hear the audio from one at a time. How do I suppress temporarily one of that, in a easier way? Thank you.

I would think you would drop down the audio level lines in the "Stereo" tab (FCP 6.0.6 view to me) in the clip's video window.
But then again, in my old version, I can't play two clips at once. But I figure if the newer FCP allow you to do that, then that's what I would do.

Has anyone else had a problem with the audio not keeping up with the video when switching to full screen on YouTube?

Hi. I have a OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.1 Mac Book Air, Processor 1.86 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
Has anyone else had a problem with the audio not keeping up with the video when switching to full screen on YouTube?
The video starts out fine, but if I click on the expand icon in the lower right corner of the screen the audio won't keep up.
Refreshing the page don't help at all. In fact, nothing seems to help once it starts.
I did not have this problem at all using Mavericks. The problem started after installing Yosemite.
Any way to fix it?

only $99, i thought it was closer to $175.

I recently had some 8mm film transferred to DVD. I am trying to edit the film clips using Premier Elements 4.0. so I can reburn the films on a single BluRay disc. Some of the film clips copy into the project but others don't. I tried copying the VOB filed onto my hard drive and then changing the file extensions on the VOB files to MPEG but this was no help. Some of the VOB files contain numerous film clips but my software does not appear to be able to recognize them as such. I need to know if replacing my old Premier Elements with the new Version 13 would solve this problem or not. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

What do you have now.....
What computer operating system do you have?
We can go into the finer points of source and your intentions, but for now it would appear that you are using SD 4:3 source media to get to a HD 16:9 result. Lots to discuss in this regard.
What was given to you on the DVD disc? DVD-VIDEO 4:3 or something else?
If DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, you should expect to find on the disc a folder named VIDEO_TS. That is your target for your video files.
If you were given a DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, then all you want from it are the video files, specifically
VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, and so on through that series until possibly getting to
VTS_02_1.VOB, and so on. How many files you have beyond the VTS_01_1.VOB file will depend on the size of the DVD-VIDEO.
Does the above scenario apply to you?
The alternative might be someone giving a DVD disc (data disc) which contains just the VTS files mentioned which were copied from
the VIDEO_TS Folder. So, you do not get the whole VIDEO_TS Folder, just the essential video files. Does this scenario apply to you.
I see no need to replace your Premiere Elements 4 with a later version unless you have a huge project and need a later version that will be a 64 bit application running specifically on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit computer.
Consider...Premiere Elements 4 and if you have DVD-VIDEO on DVD....
1. Place the DVD disc in the burner tray
2. Open Premiere Elements 4 and set the project preset for NTSC DV Standard (assuming you are working in a NTSC setup)
3. Go to
Get Media
"DVD, Digital Camera, Mobile Phone, Hard Drive Camcorder, Card Reader"
"Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" and its Advanced dialog.
Set the Source in the latter dialog for the drive which has your DVD disc inserted in its tray
You should see your VTS_01_1.VOB thumbnail in the "Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" Advanced dialog.
With this VOB selected, click on Get Media to get the file from there into the project.
Should work fine.
Complications may be involved if the people who processed your footage gave you something other what is described above.
Please review and consider, and then we can plan our project strategy accordingly.
Thank you.

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

I suspect you didn't reset it right.
Turn off the machine, let it charge up and then try the SMC reset again.

Firefox does not open proprely on the page but forms only 1/3 of page

When i open any site Firefox does not form properly on the page but takes up only 1/3 of the page (to the right).

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

Music purchased on ipad wont play on computer. I get a message which says that the computer is not authorised to play the track but when I enter the password I get the message saying that the computer is already authorised. I have the opposite problem transfering some but not all music from computer to ipad. Can anyone help?

Interesting. Maybe it is more of a DRM issue than an Apple ID ownership issue. There is actually an iTunes Support section here on the discussion boards. If you wish to continue troubleshooting, you might post your question over there and refer to this discussion thread. You can also contact someone in Apple iTunes Support.

I thought I read this summer that with iOS 6 if you deleted an email on one mobile device, it would delete that email on your other mobile devices. This does not seem to be the case but it sure would be handy. Am I missing something?

Perhaps you're thinking of iCloud?
http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/calendar-contacts-mail.html
I'm not sure if deletions are synched as are new messages - I don't use iCloud for mail myself - but it might. Someone else here might know for sure, or you can ask in the iCloud forum.
For other email providers, it's always been the case the if your email account is IMAP or Exchange, mail deletions appear on all devices since they're all just looking at the same database of messages on the email server.

Hello xerxes.nashion,
It sounds like your iPod is not recognized by iTunes or your MacBook Pro. I recommend following the steps in the article below for an issue like this:

How come when I tap the back of my iPhone next to the camera, it sounds like there is a lose piece in inside?

I just got my iPhone so i can't imagine there is anything wrong, but I noticed that when I tap the back of my iPhone next to the camera, it sounds like there is a lose piece in inside. Also, when I put the iPhone down on a desk or table i hear the same sound. Wondering if this is normal?

Hi JRM833,
That would be enough to make me worry as well. I've not seen (or heard, in this case) that happen on any of my iPhones, or any others that I've been around (friends, family, etc.).
I would say that no, that isn't normal. If you're near one, take it to an Apple store. Or, if you made your purchase at the wireless carrier you've chosen, take it back to them to see if they could help you out.
Best of luck.
