Effective ways of editing ID3 ta

Hi,
I bought a Zen Micro some months ago, and I store many Mp3 files on it. However, I find it very tedious to edit the ID3 tags with Mediasource; otherwise than when copying a CD, you can't edit more than one tag at once, and this is a shortcoming as you might like to sort many different songs under a common genre, artist, album, etc without editing them one by one. Does anyone have any suggestions about a music program that allows more ingenious ID3 editing or have any other ideas?
Regards

easy. if u have a zen micro, download the playsforsure firmware from the downloads section. when uve got it sorted and worked out how to use it (see a number of other posts on how to use micro with wmp0) u can edit id3 tag in windows media player.
v easy- just select the ones u want to edit, right click and click id3 tag editior (or something like that)
the rest is easy. for e.g. u can change the id3 tag for all the songs selected, u can change the album and all albums tags will be changed.
u need xp and wmp0 though

What's the most effective way to speed up AVCHD video editing?

Hello Everyone,
I'm having the same problem, my wife and I have a small wedding videography company, I film jobs on weekends when I'm not working full time and my wife stays home with our 2 year old daughter and edits during the week.
When jobs come in we both are using our macbook pro's for the import process because it takes SOOO long to import all the avchd clips. We're filming with the Panasonic HMC40 shooting in 720/30p on Class 10 16GB SDHC Cards.
I have an early 2008 macbook pro, 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo 2GB of ram, and my wife has a 2010 unibody with a dual core i5 w/ 4GB of ram.
As a test, I imported an 8 minute and 47 second clip in my machine, and the import takes 20:39. I went to my local apple store and ran the same import test on brand new machines and here are the results:
mbp Core 2 duo 2GB ram time: 20:39 (my machine)
mbp dual core i5 4GB ram time: 7:08 (my wife's machine)
mbp quad core i7 4GB ram time: 4:50
mba core 2 duo 1.86Ghz 2GB ram SSD 64GB drive time: 12:17
imac quad core 2.7Ghz 4GB ram time: 4:54
imac quad core 2.8Ghz 3GB ram 4:27
mac pro 2.8Ghz 3GB ram 3:42
I watched the quad core i7 macbook pro's performance monitor, and at one point it had 63 iMovie threads running to import the footage. The biggest bottleneck for importing avchd seems to be the processor. With an import time of about have of the real time, that has the biggest appeal to me, but comes at a starting price of $1799 + tax, and is expensive.
What I'm looking for is the most cost effective way to cut down on import and export times for either new hardware or software. I haven't tested the elgato h.264 HD encoder yet, nor have I tested the new Final Cut X. Has anyone done this? What about Adobe Premier Elments or Premier Pro
Our compeditors are offering 'same day edit' services, and making basically a trailer of the events that happen at the ceremony, then editing them on site in a 3-4 hour time window between the ceremony and reception, then using a projector and screen to show that trailer at the beginning of the reception, usually added to the slide show.
That's the kind of thing that we want to be able to do for our customers, but also to cut down the massive amount of editing time it takes to get every finished product out the door.
What does everyone think? Is the elgato h.264 HD encoder worth it? Is there a more professional avchd / h.264 hardware / software solution that can speed up the import process faster?
I'd love to know everyone's thoughts.
Thanks.

One thing you might consider...
Go to Final Cut Pro X.
In FCP 10, you can import AVCHD and begin editing immediately. You can edit natively in AVCHD if your needs are very simple, but most people would use FCP to "optimize" the AVCHD to ProRes 422, which is an intermediate codec like Apple Intermediate Codec, but provides higher quality. The optimizing to ProRes 422 as well as analyzing for stabilization, sound, and color takes place in the background if you have cores available.
But you can edit immediately, and as the optimized clips become available, FCP will automatically use them instead of the AVCHD clips.

Editing ID3 tags in itunes has no effect on iPhone's music library?

I manually manage my music (as opposed to synching), and I've noticed when I plug the iphone in, select the music library on the device, and make changed to the mp3s tags, the change does not register with the device. Although the changes show up in iTunes on my computer, when I browse the library through the iphone itself, the metadata appears unchanged. For example, if I change "Twilight Singers, The" to "The Twilight Singers" in itunes, when I browse my iPhone later it will still say "Twilight Singers, The."
Anyone else experience this or know how to fix it?
iPhone 4S 64GB Black, running latest iOS.

If your MP3 files contain ID3 information the Music app will read this information, aka metadata instead of using the file names since it contains more detail. For example, this is what allows your device to identify songs, artists, albums etc.
To edit ID3 details you have several options, you can do it on your device, or using your computer.
To edit on device, search BlackBerry World for 'ID3' and several apps will appear.
Since i use Windows at home, my preferred ID3 editing software is Mp3tag.
For Mac, you may want to search the App Store and see what ID3 software is offered.
After updating the ID3 details, copy the music back to your device (or close and re-open the Music app if you edited the details on your device using ID3 software from BlackBerry World) and let me know if things are good
I hope this helps!

Editing ID3 tags in the finder (not in itunes/quicktime)

Hi. New mac user. Just wondering if there was any way to edit the ID3 tags of an mp3 file within the finder's 'get info' section (as compared to windows' 'properties' section). If not (which I'm pretty sure there isn't), what would be the best way to go about doing so? Keeping in mind that I want to be able to do it before I import the file into iTunes.

you can't do it from finder. you can open it in VLC player and do it from there (press command+i in VLC).

Imovie is limited to its import formats and does not allow for storing video in any rawformat. Which means all videos will contain lossy compression applied to the video-.with no way to edit full format video. Is this statement true?

Imovie is limited to its import formats and does not allow for storing video in any rawformat. Which means all videos will contain lossy compression applied to the video….with no way to edit full format video. Is this statement true? Does iMovie support HD 1080p @ 60 fps?

… Is this statement true?
yes and no!
using the intended Import from Camera routines, iM converts automatically in its very own AppleIntermediateCodec. so, answer is yes.
but …
a) Apple claims , aic is non-lossy intermediate codec. working with proRes in FCPX taught me, there are even less non-lossy-ness codecs
b) iM offers an Archive feature, which is basically a simple Finder/copy operation which 'clones' your SDcards content into some folder on your harddrive; e.g. you can later use these untouched 'raws' in another editor such as FCPX. so, answer is no.
c) when you 'override' the import routines by manually re-wrapping mts into a mov container, iM handles the 'native' h264s ... so, answer is no.
d) adding any effect, transition etc. reduces any interlaced source to 540p. (if you're working with 720p source, res is kept) … so, answer is yes. or, in 720p case, no.
< Johnny Depp's voice >… savvy?
Does iMovie support HD 1080p @ 60 fps?
via Import from Camera? No.
via re-wrapped mts>>mov? I was told yes, some say no.
one thing to be kept in mind when talking about these 'issues':
iM, this 12€, is meant as a CONSUMER toy tool.
it supports AVCHD vers1 (=no 1080/60p, no >24Mbps, no 3D).
fingers crossed, we'll see soon some iM/QT/FCPX update for support of AVCHD v2 ........
the main consumer devices are within the specs, iM supports.
using professional equipments makes usage of professional software (FCPX, AP) optional.
sorry for lengthy answer.

A better way to edit content within a slideshow widget?

Is there a better way to edit the content of slideshow widgets? I understand the way to see the content of a slideshow and edit it is by viewing thumbnails, but this is a very clunky way to be dealing with a lot of content! It would be super cool to be able to link an entire folder to a slideshow widget and have it update when changes are made in that folder. that way designers could organize their files in finder or bridge and then simply update the slideshow link - i would love that!

I was afraid of that...
I don't use lightroom or Photoshop. I used to be a Photoshop user until the cost became so prohibitive. I have since switched to using GIMP as my eternal editor, it's native files are .xcf (musch like the Photoshop .PSD) but Aperture doesn't support .xcf files and I doubt they ever will since GIMP is a free open source tool, rather than a commercial product.
I have been playing with 3.01 now for a few days and finding that the heal tool and burn and dodge tools seem to be improved. Even though in GIMP they were destructive to the original RAW file those items were noticeably better in the external editor.
Also, any extreme editing still needs to be done outside of Aperture, so I will take a Catapult or just keep my current workflow....

Best way to edit out a white background and make a transparent gif

I have an image I purchased but need to make it into a gif. It already has a white background but when I use the magic wand it chops little bits of the edge of the images up.
Is there an easier way of editing the white out of this background and making a transparent gif?
I am using Adobe Photoshop CS2
Image is attached to take a look.
Thanks, I appreciate any help with this.

Worked perfect at a tolerance of 10, didn't know what that was for before
Thanks!

Is there a way to edit song titles on an iPad?

I don't use the Music part of "iTunes in the cloud" for one simple reason: Some times the iTunes Store gets the song titles wrong - poor punctuation, misspelled words, that type of thing. If I had the 'automatically download music' turned on, I assume my iPad would receive the songs directly from the iTunes Store, with any such incorrect punctuation. So if I turned that option on, would there be any way to edit the song titles directly from my iPad?
For example: I buy an album from the iTunes Store on my computer. It has song titles that have misspellings. Those misspellings would also end up on my iPad once the songs were pushed to it. So would there be any way to fix them? If so, how?
Would I have to edit the song titles in iTunes and then sync it with the iPad? That would defeat the purpose of music in the cloud, wouldn't it?

Can I change my iCloud email address? I do not see a way to edit it.

Can I change my iCloud email address? I do not see a way to edit it.

Jeffrey is correct: but you do have the option to add up to three 'email aliases' which are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main address. Indeed it's a good idea to give out an alias address rather than the master address, in case of spam or other problems: you easily delete an alias without impinging on the behaviour of the rest of the account.
There seem to be problems at the moment about creating aliases, so if you find you can't, give it a couple of days and try again.

You should be aware that, once created, aliases can't be moved to another account, nor turned into full accounts, nor reactivated once deleted.

Is there a way to edit text in a smart object brought in from illustrator?

Is there a way to edit text in a smart object brought in from illustrator? Many thanks for the help!
And can anyone recommend learning resources for someone (me) who is an AI user for a decade who needs to work in PS for web mockups? Something other than a basic PS tutorial. Something geared towards that specific task. I'm not a PS beginner - but have mostly used it for photo correction until now.
Truly -- thanks! BTW - I'm in the CS 6 Suite and CC will not be available to me.

OMG! When I went back into the ai file and made sure that the text was on it's own layer (which I had not originally done) I could indeed edit the text in the file when exported to ps! This is a perfect solution for this situation. As far as the person I'm working with - who fears ai more than anything - I can work in ai - which in many ways is so much less cumbersome than ps - and just export - clicking "preserve" layers & text editing! I hope this helps someone else! Sisham - many thanks for your help!

Is there a way to edit vector data within a placed Ai file?

When I place aa Ai file in InDesign it its seems to be one group and I want to take advantage of the vector content within that group. Group and Ungroup are greyed out.
I'm using cs5.5.
I've only been using it for 2 days and am new to InDesign.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

The way to edit an AI file is to right-click the image and select "Edit original"
If it's just some simple objects, I find Bob's suggestion of copying them into InDesign worth the effort. Then again, if you have to edit them at a regular base, InDesign's vector editing tools are slightly less advanced than Illustrator's (admittedly, by a narrow margin; but some things are just a bit easier to do in Illustrator).

Is there a way to edit a library image and have it automatically change throughout my documents?

InDesign question:
I am changing an image in several books and thought creating a library image would be great in the future, that way all I'd have to do is click on the library image, make the changes and PRESTO all the images are updated in all the books.
However I am not seeing a way to edit the image in the library, so what is the point of using it.
Is there a way to just update the library image or should I just create the image in Illustrator and go from there?
I am using CS4

Does the file need to be created in Illustrator? I have some content elements that basically contain some text and boxes. So I am wondering is this still the best way? Sounds like I cannot create the library element in InDesign.
Also, I was told that another possibility is to create a page for that element, then place it in the InDesign file. Would that work as well? I basically have about 20 different design elements that I want to use in various documents. Since they would likely change it makes sense for me to have the capibility to edit the document once.

IS there a way to edit a detail (title) in N97's c...

I just switched from N95 to N97 and was shocked to find out that there is no way to edit the detail(s) in a contact, i.e. to change the title from "Mobile" to say "Telephone (Home)" and so on!
The N97 will allow only the addition and deletion of a detail but not the editing of an existing detail with a number associated with it. I know one can copy the number then paste it into a new detail which can be added but why the heck would Nokia want us to re-invent the wheel by removing a nice and convenient feature on older models?

isnt there an option to request such features in new firmware updates somewhere?
or is discussing it on forum the only way to let the developpers know?
I enjoyed this feature on my n73 and told al my friends how practical it was and now i have to do without

Is there a way to edit songs in itunes?

I am working on creating a dvd and am making slideshows of pictures from iphoto. I only want to use a portion of a song I have in itunes. Is there a way to edit the music? If so, how?
Thanks

+"I only want to use a portion of a song I have in itunes."+
Go into Get Info > Options and set the Start and Stop times where you want them, then OK. Then, assuming it is an unprotected file, use the "Convert Selection to XXX" to create a new shorter file that only consists of the section you want.
You can either keep or delete the original (longer) file. If you are keeping it, you may want to go back into it and remove the Start and Stop.
