DW CS4 cannot embed mp3 files

Windows 7. IE 8, Firefox 3.6.8, Chrome
I want to embed mp3 files in my web pages. I go to Insert/Media/Plugin and select an mp3 files from the box that appears. The placeholder for the player appears on the appropriate spot on the page. I highlight the placeholder and click on the Play button in property inspector. An error message then appears saying "Unable to find the plugin that handles this media type. Dreamweaver looks in both the Configurations/Plugin folder and the plugin folder for each of your installed browsers". The Config/Plugin folder contains NPSWF32.dll and UnsupportedPlugins.txt (contains npdsplay.dll nppdf.dll). Also when I go to Live view there is a blank space where the player should be. I do not have any problems playing mp3 files with WMP, Real audio or Quicktime which are all installed on my computer.
What must I do?

Yes but I did exactly what I accused you of doing so it was really bad!
Software troubles can drive you a bit crazy. Sorry again.

Thank you for the apology, but as we have all (probably), misread and

Cannot play MP3 files in Dreamweaver CS4

Hi
Apogogies if this has been asked before.
I have an embedded MP3 file on one of my DWCS4 pages but when I try to play it from the Properties Inspector I get the message "Unable to find the plugin that handles this media type".
The sound file plays OK in Firefox and IE but I would like to be able to test it in DW. I have the currrent version of Apple QuickTime Pro installed.
I am using both Windows XP and Vista with the same problem.
Is there a plug I can download for DW only in order to play these files without resorting to converting the MP3 to another format.
Any help would be much appreicated.
Thanks
George

Cannot download Mp3 files and some other format

Hi people,
I cannot download Mp3 files and many other files. I cannot update my Ovi Store app and pretty much everything else. I can download pdf and zip using opera but almost everything else (including mp3 and sis files) redirects to Nokia browser which just freezes no download. I have tried another same model phone E72 and no problem.
It seem my browser is corrupt and can't find way to reinstall.
Also why don't nokia let us download with browser of our choice? I would rather use opera than inbuilt one
Stefano

Hi evstevemd
Apart from loss of data issue in the circumstances you may have to either "hard reset" or re-install existing firmware to eliminate possible software corruption.

Itunes cannot open mp3 files

I downloaded a zip file with mp3s. I unzipped it and tried to add it to my itunes library. I tried dragging files into itunes, tried opening file by double-clicking on it, using the file import feature in itunes - nothing works. Also, I cannot open the mp3 files with windows media player or realplayer. But the files look no different than other mp3s that I've previously downloaded from the same website. Any ideas?

I suddenly have this same problem with MacOS 10.6.7 and iTunes 10.2.2. Clicking on a tune in a folder gets the prompt "The document xxxx.mp3 could not be opened. iTunes cannot open files in the MP3 audio format."
Dragging the tune into iTunes will open it, so there's no problem with it being a "trouble file" that needs validating with some external app. I believe this is a new glitch that came with iTunes 10.2.2. It's workable but quite irritating when trying to manage an iTunes library that includes 28,000-plus songs.

Cannot import .mp3 files into Audition 3.0

I just reinstalled after reformating (I was already on Windows 7 x64 Ult, just changed primary hard drives), now when I try to import an .mp3 file into Audition 3.0, it tells me that is isn't a supported file type.
Suggestions?
Correction: I cannot open SOME .mp3 files.

even I am not able to import certain mp3 files in itunes. it won't even play them. What is up?

Cannot copy mp3 files to ipod after 4.3.1 OS update

I updated my iPod Touch to 4.3.1. Now when I open iTunes and try to copy mp3 files to my iPod the cursor turns into a circle with a line across it indicating I cannot copy the files. I manually sync as I select a few items from my PC library. This method has worked fine for years. Only failed after 4.3.1 update. Any ideas? I have rebooted both PC and iPod several times. No joy.

Hey PlanB77,
Here's why I know the problem is Apple and NOT a problem with the aftermarket cables.
I have a total of (6) aftermarket cables. These cables support several Apple devices (iPod Touch, iPod Classic, iPod Nano, and iPad)in different locations. All (6) of these aftermarket cables have worked just fine for many months. After the update to 4.3.1 on my iPod Touch, NONE of these cables work on my iPod Touch, but the original Apple iPod cable works fine. These aftermarket cables still work fine on my other Apple products that have not been updated.
It is beyond comprehension that all (6) aftermarket cables have failed only on my iPod Touch while working fine on all my other Apple devices. Hence my comment, Apple has become truly pathetic. They now demand your dollars for overpriced cables. As this change to the OS is without a public announcement and after I have purchased cables from other vendors I stand by my conclusion.
Oh, and Apple wants to charge for support to tell you why their OS 4.3.1 upgrade broke your product. That adds insult to injury.

I cannot play mp3 file on itunes after i recover it from an external hdd

hey guy'z i need a little help here
i have a large mp3 file from an old 2TB which had a problem and then recovered and transfered to a new ext hdd.
now after the recovery was done and i'm trying to play my music on the itunes it wont play
any solution guys?
and another thing is the wma file why i cant i play it also on my itunes?

iTunes cannot play WMA files. Use a conversion program such as Switch or EasyWMA to convert the WMA to MP3 or AAC.
For your problem MP3, make sure it is a valid file by playing it in another player such as QuickTime. If it plays there but not in iTunes, then it needs to be cleaned up with a program such as MP3 Validator.

I cannot download MP3 files, whenever i click the link to download the MP3 files opens in firefox itself with no seprate dialogue box to download...it opens in a black screen and i am unable to download it

Cannot open mp3 file

Hi,
I got a mp3 file which i recorded recently. When i try to open it in soundtrack pro i get an error "Can't open file "xxxxx". When i open it with Quicktime Player it starts playing. I guess that during the recording there was an error at the end so the file is not correctly closed and the end of the file is corrupt.
Is there a way to fix that?
Thanks
Daniel

I also experienced this problem, not being able to open mp3 files in soundtrackpro and eventually discovered that the problem lay with the source of the file.
If I tried to open an mp3 file on an external hard drive I got the error message, when I transferred the same file to the default Soundtrack pro folder on my macpro’s internal hard drive, it opened without any problem at all.
I wonder if the problem is related to the relatively slower access speed when accessing the plug in external hard drive ?
Hope this helps.

Cannot copy mp3 files from CD

Hi All,
I've some cd's which contain mp3 files. These were burnt using a windows machine. When I try to copy these files into my mac, it gives an error 'Insufficient Privilege'.
I'm able to browse through the CD, but i'm not able to play any songs from it.
I checked the CD access rights, and its a 'read-only'. Will this be a problem for me to copy files? Is there any way that I could copy these files?
Your help is much appreciated.

CS4 cannot parse .png files

I just installed Photoshop cs4 on my new laptop, a Lenovo Y510p, and it refuses to open any and all .png files. The files themselves are not corrupt, because they'll open everywhere else, including Adobe Fireworks, but they will not open in photoshop. I checked to make sure the png plugin was present, and it is, and I tried to resave images in fireworks and in paint as png files and they still will not open in PS. I even tried creating a new png file in PS and once I close it photoshop will not open it again. So does anyone know how to fix this?
I read on other forums that sometimes anti-virus programs can interfere, does anyone know if Windows Defender does? Also, I read there's a posibility that the png plugin is corrupted, or it may not have installed correctly, but I cannot find anywhere to download the plugin to try and correct it if that's the case.

Never seen that. I usually have to set PS as the default for opening PNGs after a fresh install, but I've never seen PS unable to open PNGs.
If you need the plug-in, here's one that I KNOW works: http://tinyurl.com/n5ag65r
That's got the X86 and X64 PNG file format plug-ins in a zip.

I cannot open mp3 files I received from a purchased download. They are in a .zip file but no matter what I do, they cannot be opened. Please help.

I have right clicked and selected open, and the loading ring shows but nothing happens. I have also extracted the files, opened them in itunes and windows media player. (cannot be accesed in itunes or wmp)

With ZIP files, extract was your best bet. Do the players report that the file is corrupted, or zero length?? You may need to check with the seller on whether the ZIPs downloaded correctly or see whether you can get another format.
You also could try downloading again using Internet Explorer, if they allow that.

Cannot embed MOV file in Acrobat

I hope this is the right forum for my question - it's the closest one I could find...
My problem is that I get an error message when I try to embad a MOV file into a PDF using Acrobat 9. This has worked in the past. Now suddenly I'm being told the annotation cannot take place either because it can't find the file (but surely it can find it: it was among the items present to me to choose from), or because "the URL is unreachable (make sure the proxy server settings are correct)".
I should mention that these 'MOV' files are actually JPGs that I want to open in a floating window, and that I simply renamed from JPG to MOV so Acrobat's MOV-playing code would kick in. This is a technique I have used successfully in the past - unless the past ones were GIFs (I forgot which) - and furthermore, one can simply double-click these 'MOV' files in Windows Explorer and Quicktime opens them with no problem.
(As to the hypothesis that previous successes were with were with GIFs instead of JPGs. But I just tried that, and Acrobat perceived right away that the MIME types were different and didn't even initialize the authoring system. With JPGs re-named to MOVs, it gets past there, and only complains when you specify the parms (e.g. No Poster, etc.) and it tries to load it. With these renamed GIFs just as with the renamed JPGs, if you simply double-click the 'MOV' in Windows Explorer, Qucktime opens it with no problem.)
As to the 'proxy' issue, I do have a proxy set in my browser (Foxfire), but I have disabled it by chosing 'No proxy' in Options. Just to be sure, I re-booted, brought up Foxfire, and confirmed that it was still set to 'No proxy'. But I still get the error. What could it be?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

My earlier JPG > MOV solution still works beautifully, even in the latest versions of Acrobat Reader, but – as I have now sadly discovered – it leads to errors in the production of new examples with the current version of Acrobat, and even to a space-wasting and visually ugly result with the latest versions of Vegas Video, which is the app I used earlier to convert my JPGs to MOV in the first place. But thank you for your SWF solution, since that will at least enable me to open the graphic images in current versions of Acro Reader, despite the fact I will now have to include within the SWF itself a message saying ‘to close this window, click in the upper right hand corner of its border’ or some other tacky solution, such as a separate button within the page, departing from the style of all the other RMAs in the PDFs I’ve already prepared. Also, if I want to avoid the (minor, but ugly) letterboxing that occurs when the SWF windows are re-sized or moved, I’ll have to open them via the new interface with its compulsory icon, since that letterboxing occurs only when the SWFs were embedded in legacy mode.
(The fact that the letterboxing occurs only when the SWFs were embedded in legacy mode tells me that that little bug probably belongs to Adobe, not to the app creating the SWFs. Another bug that must belong to Adobe for the same reason is the fact that the Get From Media button does not work when the SWFs were added in legacy mode, but does work if one embeds through the new interface. Yet a THIRD problem – or at a least poor design given how I want things to work – is that the SWF windows can be dragged out of the confines of the Acrobat window if added in legacy mode, although not if added via the new interface. It seems likely that different sets of Adobe programmers were working on the new vs. legacy interfaces. I’m sorry to have to say these things since you seem to want to defend Adobe, but these are the facts as I see them.)
Thanks also for the heads-up you provided as to what I’ll have to contend with in the future. In view of the huge workload I already have on this project, however, instead of trying switch to an entirely different platform, I’m wondering if my best strategy might not be to just continue on my present course using Acrobat, and count on Adobe to resolve these issues in future versions. (Yes, I realize that could be a risky bet.) Let me ask, though, whether Flash or some other product (Flex? AIR?) would meet my needs anyway. Its essential that whatever product I choose have the ability for users to view videos frame by frame, and not slap the play-stop-pause-etc buttons over my sub-titles.
Also, while I’ve written only one app in Flash (a little cartoon clock that worked) - and that was 20 years ago - my impression is that it’s mainly for video. Two properties of my current project seem to make a product like Acrobat much more appropriate: (a) It’s basically TEXT – what I’m working on are research papers and an e-book in linguistics, in which the audio and video clips are examples to prove or illustrate points being argued for in paragraphs of connected prose, to be understood in relation to the full document, as in any article or book; and (b) there are often several of the media clips relating to a particular example grouped closely together: putting them all in the page would make for a much longer result that’s harder for a reader to follow when the clips span possibly several pages for each example. And there will be many, many examples. You can get a sense of what the project is about by having a look at www.vincentasl.info. But that website belongs to an early phase of the project, before it became necessary to add subtitles to all the sign language videos, and include lots more media clips for each example, in addition to graphs showing the rising and falling pitch for some of the audio examples (the situation with the SWF files we have been discussing). If you’d like to see a sample of the latter, I’d be happy to send one to your e-mail address, as I don’t see a way to attach PDFs to posts in this forum.

CS4 Cannot place PSD files in Yosomite

Like a LOT of other users, I am working using CS4, a great package and I have always been happy with it and very stable,
and I do not want to update to CS6 as cost is an issue.
Please can anyone answer the question of how to fix the problem of not being able to place psd files in Illustrator as this is causing me
no end of problems with my work.
HELP..............................

Why don't you look into subscribing to Adobe's Creative Cloud? Much less expensive, in the long run, than simply buying a CS6 suite any longer. I had a CS6 suite and, for the first year, only paid $30 a month for a subscription to CC but now I'm paying $50 a month. I still find that price cheaper than purchasing software that will lack the features of the 'newest' products.
No problem placing PSD files into Illustrator dose with the CC versions!
