Exporting song to disk without compression...

if i export a song into disk without compression the file becomes a AIFF stereo 16bit/44,1kHz?
If so I need then to convert it into WAV and i'm trying audacity...
is it just me or it seems that the resulting file sounds worse than the same into AAC 128 KBPS??
how can it be if it's almost 10 times bigger????
thanks!

An AIFF to WAV conversion shouldn't degrade the quality since they are both uncompressed formats. Have you tried doing the conversion in iTunes?

"Export Song to Disk" will not create file

So, I've been trying to bounce my GarageBand song for a few days now using the Share>Export Song to Disk option and nothing ever comes out. I uncheck "Compress" and I save it to my desktop, it completes the mixdown and normalizes the track and completes but when I check my desktop, there is nothing there. The project itself is 71.8 MB in size. I have already deleted the com.apple.garageband.plist file from my library but it did not help. Any ideas?

Make sure the file name isn't too long. There's a known glitch where project names longer than around 28 or so characters won't export to disk. That's the only thing I can think of.
Also it won't be on your desktop unless you choose that location when exporting.

Exporting 4:3 video without compression

Hi, I'm working with 16:9 HD footage, and I need to create a 4:3 PAL DVD for my client. I'm having problems exporting a video from my 4:3 sequence- the quicktime looks blocky and compressed, even when I use a high quality compression setting on my sequence settings. What am I doing wrong?
My workflow :
1. Rushes are 16:9 HD originally from a Canon 7D, converted to XDCAM EX 108025P
2. Edit in 16:9 sequence and add titles (sequence settings XDCAM EX 108025P 35mbs)
3. Export movie at sequence settings
4. Setup new 4:3 sequence (settings- Frame Size 768x576; Aspect Ratio: CCIR 601 PAL Sq. (4:3); Pixel Aspect Ratio: Square; Quicktime Video Settings: XDCAM EX 108025P 35mbs; Quality: 100%) and import previously exported 16:9 movie
5. Export Quicktime movie at sequence settings
The final 4:3 video looks compressed, compared to the original 16:9 rushes. What can I do?
Thanks for any help in advance, this is bugging me!

Export your file from Final Cut Pro using Current Settings & Self Contained
Also, export a short 10 sec segment of the clip using Current Settings & Self Contained
Open up compressor
Drag in the 10 sec clip to the Batch window
Go to the presets area and find one that transcodes the file to the output format you want.
Copy the preset
Click on the copy of the preset to open it in the Inspector window
Go to the Geometry Tab
Set your image sizes under "dimensions"
Set your padding to "preserve source aspect ratio".
Save the preset and try it on your clip.
If it doesn't work, keep playing.
Once it works, drag in your long clip, apply the preset and away you go.

GB Exporting Song to Disk Issue

Within GarageBand i have multiple Tracks (9), all independent of each other. All lined up in the order i want them in. What I'm trying to do is export them out and name them Track01 through Track09. So what i do is mark the first Track Solo to export it out by it self, and it works and i go down the list just fine. The issue is when i go back to listen to them, the songs are very long. And actually they are all the same lenght. Track01 should only be 10minutes, but it's showing 32minutes. When i listen to it, i hear everything i should hear for the first 10minutes, but after that, it's just silence.
What am i doing wrong?
Help!

Is there a way to make a long clip into a short clip without compressing it any further?

Is there a way to make a long clip into a short clip without compressing it any further?
I went through all my old formats (VHS, hi8, miniDV, etc) and captured them. They end up as .mov files. Some of the longer 2hr ones are about 28GB.
If I am making a new project and I want to edit in short clips from several of these longer files, is there a way to save a short clip from an existing file without compressing it any further?
In other words, lets say I have 10 2hr files, but I know I only want 1 minute from each. Is there a way to select the good 1 minute from each .mov file that I want to use and a version of this 1 minute from each in the folder I am working on the project in, without compressing them??? I like to keep all of the content I am working with on a project in its own folder in case the project needs to be moved from one hard drive to the next while I am working on it. I would hate to have to make a folder that is 280GB or more when I only need a minute from each larger file.
I hope I have asked this in a way that is understandable. Maybe there is a term for what I want to do, that I don't know yet that has its own help section too. Thanks for any assistance

Thanks Jon - That's kind of where I started, but the part of that I need help with on is the second to last step.
"Export using a codec that matches the source material. "
The codec they were captured in is .mov at DV quality, but then after picking .mov, there are so many other options to choose from as far as compression goes from sound quality and settings, to how many passes, etc. I just want the new clip to be of the same quality as the original clip. It looks so complicated and its not clear to me what options to pick to match the original.
Is there a setting or preference that helps you to match the compression settings of the original clip? Or is there a way to detect the settings of the original clip so I can repeat that in the shortened clip??

Upload without compressing

I have a 110 MB FCP movie file. I want to upload the whole file to vimeo, but am unable to do so in this format. I am unable to export this into another format, it seems, without compressing it.
Could someone please tell me how to convert the entire file in order to upload it in its uncompressed form. Thank you..

I used QuickTime Player for the example above.
File > Export > Movie to QuickTime Movie and selected H264 from the Options button.
You could also use Compressor, MPEG Streamclip, Autodesk Cleaner -there are quite a few apps that will do this. Some of which you already have in QuickTime Player and Compressor.
What you need to do is go to vimeo.com and find out what they accept.
Don't get too hung up on how many MB the file size is, the beauty of H264 is that it can produce wonderful results at relatively small file sizes.

Troubles Exporting Song List

Here's my situation, I want to export my song list and I have songs with Chinese words in them. I could do it before, it appeared as if iTunes saved the .txt files in Unicode, but now I can't get it to work. All that shows up are question marks where the chinese words are, which means iTunes has reverted to saving in ANSI. Does anyone know how to fix this or have a work around so I can see the song list with the chinese words? Thank you very much to anyone who helps out!

I upgraded iTunes from 6.0.2.23 to 6.0.4.2 and the Unicode option disappeared. I am not sure if that is the cause though. I have successively tried going back to 6.0.2.23, 6.0.1.3, 6.0.0.18, and 5.0.1.x, in that order, without success. I can still view old Unicode exported song list in Notepad, so the XP OS seems ok, I just can't make new Unicode export list. Do Apple engineers read these forums? Can a kind engineer please help?

Export songs in an iTunes playlist

I would like to burn MP3 CDs to listen in my car. The songs that I like to listen are mostly in the playlists in my iTunes library, in which all my songs are in AIFF format. I can certainly convert the format of the songs to MP3, then how do I organize those converted MP3 songs with artist-alburm-title and, when reached around 700MB, burn into a CD? After conversion in iTunes, the MP3 songs are scattered in various folders, and manually find all of them is very inconvenient.
Alternatively, is there a way to export all the songs in a playlist to another place in my hard disk (out of iTunes folder), while preserve the ID3 tag in each song? Then I can use MAX to convert them to MP3.
Thanks much for your time.

Good idea! However what I would like to achieve is to organize the MP3 songs in an artist-alburm-title folder structure so that when I listen in my car, I can easily navigate through the hundreds of songs on the 700MB CD. The little software iTunesExport does a nice job to extract songs from my iTunes playlist and export to another place in my hard drive and "retain iTunes structure", i.e. preserve the artist-alburm-title folder structure of those songs. Then I use Max to convert those songs (still in AIFF format) to MP3. Max also preserve the folder structure. It's a two step solution. I wish I could find a way to do this in one step - export songs in my iTunes playlist as MP3 to another place in my hard drive (or CD directly) while preserving the artist-alburm-title folder structure.

Exporting record of phones without certificat on CUCM

Hi,
how can i export record of phones without certification or with expired one on cisco unified callmanger?
thanks.

Hi Caleb,
I would check your DLU licenses. It sounds to me like you are
out of licenses and that's why you can't add any additional phones
Cheers!

Removing songs from itunes without removing them from ipod

Is it possible to remove songs from iTunes without removing them from iPod? When I attempt to delete songs from iTunes I get a warning that they'll be deleted from iPod as well. I've got Manually manage music and videos checked under Options in the Summary window.

You can delete songs from your iTunes/computer hard drive after transferring them to the iPod, and for this you need to set your iPod to manage the iPod content manually.
However, this is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
What if the iPod were lost/stolen/needed repair? Again, the music would lost. I strongly recommend a back up, and if computer hard drive space is in short supply, you should seriously consider an external hard drive. They are not expensive, and the cost is well worth it when compared to the loss of all your precious music.
At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See these about backing up media.
How to back up your media in iTunes.
Buegie's complete back up strategy.
To move music from iPod to computer, check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.

How do i delete a song from iCloud without having to subscribe to it?

How do I delete a song from icloud without having to subscribe to it? I've deleted the song from my iphone and my computer, but it is still in icloud, but I can not delete it. It keeps on wanting me to subscribe to icloud. Which it is not fair or right for me to have to pay to delete something. Would anyone please help me? I am using windows 7 home premium 64bit Operating system. The song is stil showing on my iphone, but i need to delete it from icloud for it to not show on my iphone.

If the song has been purchased from itunes store, you cannot delete the song from the cloud but you can hide it. - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919.
You do not need to subscribe itunes match which is a different product from itunes in the Cloud.

How can I export songs from my iTunes to a mail program or laptop?

How can I export songs from my iTunes to a mail program/computer? The songs in question are originals composed by my boyfriend in Garage Band. We have full rights to them, but they import into iTunes like all the other artists songs. His hard drive crashed and I have the only copies. I have no access to my iMac for 2 months while we tour our show and we need them on the tour. We are in dire straights if we can not access these songs and the iPad will not hook up to our equipment. Plus we need to add a track to a promotional video. So how can we access our own music?
Thanks.

If they are in the iPad's Music app then the only way to get them out of it is by connecting the iPad to a computer. As they aren't iTunes purchases you won't be able to copy them back to a computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, instead you will need a third-party program on the computer to copy them off - there are some listed half-way down this page which should work: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
