Failing to import my own audio files (not copy protected files)

I'm having trouble getting external audio files to import properly into GarageBand, most specifically MP3 files. These aren't copy protected audio files, these are files I've created myself in other programs and unprotected MP3 sound effects clips downloaded from various web sites.
Here's what happens, I open GB and create a new project. I find the audio file that I want to start with, an MP3 file that plays just fine in QuickTime and iTunes. I drag the audio file into GB to create a new track. GB begins a conversion/import process or whatever it does to be able to edit an MP3 file. I see the progress bar filling up as it does this. When it is complete a new track is created with the MP3 file's name, however the track itself is empty. I don't see any content and there is no audio when I hit play. I don't get any sort of error message either.
I've tried playing with the MP3 file settings, changing them to mono, adjusting bit rates, compression, etc. but every time I try to import into GB this same process happens with no results. These audio files I'm creating play in all my other audio playing apps, so I'm confused as to what could be wrong.
Can someone tell me how I can get GB to import these files properly? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Before going further, what was name specified in the IPAM provisioning wizard while selecting Group Policy based provisioning method? The GPO prefix name specified in the
PowerShell command must be same as the one specified in the IPAM provisioning wizard while selecting Group Policy based provisioning method.
Regarding Invoke-IpamGpoProvisioning, the following article can be referred to as reference.

I can't import photos from a card, file or anything. I get "could not copy a file to the requested location".. This has never happened before.

I can't import photos from a card, file or anything. I get "could not copy a file to the requested location". I have never had this happen before. I use a MacBook Pro

I also have the exact same issue. New IMac, installed LR, imported approximately 900 photos no problem, across the network from a Windows PC. The import stopped when the network connection was lost. Now I cannot import for the same reason "could not copy a file to the requested location". I have plenty of disk space and i have permission to the needed folders. I cannot even import from a folder already on the IMac.

I can't import any photos. 'Could not copy to requested location' is the given but i have tried importing to both hard drive and external drive.

i can't import any photos. 'Could not copy to requested location' is the given but i have tried importing to both hard drive and external drive. Help please ?

Most likely, the "requested location" where you are trying to copy files to does not have WRITE permission, and so you need to change the permissions.

"Could not copy a file to the requested location." error

Hi - I'm running Adobe Lightroom 1.4.1 (latest) on my iMac which is running Leopard's latest version. Suddenly I'm getting an error when importing to Lightroom. I have used different CF cards, so I'm sure it's Lightroom. Either one or two photos import (out of a large amount - this happens whether in RAW or JPG) and then it quits with a pop-up, which at the very top says "Import Results", and under there it says, "Some import operations were not performed." In the space below there's a header that says, "Could not copy a file to the requested location. (92)" (Not always 92, sometimes 200 or something else), and there is a triangle to expand and all the photo file names are listed below.
Everything was running fine until yesterday, nothing changed. I have screen shots of the error if needed. Help??? Please! I have so many photos to import!
Thanks for any help,
Aviva

Same problem here only with images burned to disks today, it is fine with images burned to disks 3 days ago. This is happening on two computers one is running XP with Lightroom 1.4 the other is running Vista with Lightroom 1.3. I can import one image at a time but no batches off DVD or CD disks, I have not tried directly from my CF cards. We have found a work around; download all images to temp folder on desktop then import into Lightroom after imported delete files in temp folder it works but takes a lot more time and space on hard drive.

How to save the contents of a file(not a text file)

Hi all, I want to save the contents of a file(,png file, not a text file) as a field in a class. Shall I have it as a string or byte array or something?
I have tried saving a file in a string but there were some problems with loading the file from a different platform. Following is my code.
        String string;
        try {
            StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(1024);
            char[] characterArray = new char[1024];
            BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
            while(br.read(characterArray) != -1){
                sb.append(String.valueOf(characterArray));
            br.close();
            string= sb.toString();
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }and I use the following code to recover the string back to a stream, and save that stream back to a time later.
    ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(map.getBytes());I realized that because this file is not a text file, the string could cause some problems. But anyone could tell me if I should use a byte array or someting? and how?
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Jing

You should use a byte array, and the binary streams (InputStream a& OutputStream). Never use Strings and Reader/Writer if you have binary data.

Can not copy any file or empty the trash

Hello,
I'm using a Macbook (white) with OSX 10.6.4 and am having an extremely annoying problem which has three symptoms:
1. I *can not empty the trash* (safely or not) at all.
2. I *can not copy any file*, anywhere.
3. I *can not move anything to the "Applications"* folder.
I try restarting the computer, repairing the permissions, running the latest version of Onyx and so on, but nothing works. I always get the following error message (when copying a file or emptying the trash)
"The operation can't be completed because you don't have the permission to access some of the items".
And this even though I repaired the permissions three times today.
To be honest, this makes my Mac pretty useless, and is very frustrating.
Can anybody help? I've browsed a lot of other threads about this, tried everything, but to no avail.
Come on, this is my first Mac, don't tell me I have to reinstall the OS from zero, Windows-style.

Those are the normal permissions but if you are logged in as admin, hit the unlock button and enter your password they should no longer be greyed out.
You can try chmoding them from root through the terminal if you are up for it. I'd also try booting up in SafeMode and seeing if that allows access.

Could not copy the file "C:\Microsoft.WITDataStore.dll" because it was not found.

Hi All,
I need to use "Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Common, Version=11.0.0.0" dll in my code.
But when I try to build my application I get the below error.
"Could not copy the file "C:\Microsoft.WITDataStore.dll" because it was not found."
And when I try to include version 12 of the same dll , code gets build successfully. And when I try to consume the code(which uses the dll) I get
'Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.DataStoreLoader,
Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies.
The system cannot find the file specified."
how do I go ahead with this..??
Thanks
Uma.K

Hi Uma,
You might check whether the version 11 of the assembly is referenced or added into soruce control. When use the referenced files, please use the relative path for building. If the version 11 of the assembly is not added, please add it to source control and
make sure it's referenced correctly.
It would be better to let us know the TFS version that you're using. And you can also use version 12 if the assembly works fine. If you have any other concerns, elaborate your scenario with more details.

Microsoft.WebApplication.targets 182 5 error MSB3030 Could not copy the file because it was not found

We use Visual Studio Online and the integrated continuous integration (build server) from Microsoft. We have a solution that contains multiple projects two of which are latest MVC projects. I updated a bunch of our Nuget packages yesterday and now we are
getting a build error one of our MVC projects. Any help is greatly appreciated as I have exhausted my resources trying to understand why the error is occurring!
We use nuget for our external libraries, the solution and projects and set to use Nuget Restore (no packages persisted in TFS).
We updated Angular to the latest version using Nuget updates inside of visual studio. Here an excerpt from packages.config in the project file. The first block is what was found in the packages.config before the update and the second block is after the
update.

I looked at the change log of my check-in and noticed that the errors occur for Angular script references that were updated. New angular references (adds in the TFS changeset) are being copied without errors. Example: angular-animate.js was edited
in the Angular update in TFS but angular-aria.js is a new file in the package so new file in TFS.
Using Source Control Explorer I verified the location of the files, the new and the existing files from the Angular nuget package can all be found in the Scripts folder of the MVC project. I can also view the content of each file file without issue.
The references in the project file (csproj) are all consistent too, I can't see any differences between the files that cause failure and those that do not. The following block is a direct copy/paste from the csproj file
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-animate.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-animate.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-aria.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-aria.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-cookies.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-cookies.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-csp.css" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-loader.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-loader.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-messages.js" />

<Content Include="Scripts\angular-sanitize.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-scenario.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-touch.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-touch.min.js" />
Is there anything I forgot to mention that would help me figure out what is going on?
What else can I try with the exception of rolling back the changeset and re-adding the nuget package?
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi Igor,
For your situation, make sure you checked in your source files after updating Angular. You can also check the whether the foders for the Angular reference are under source control in source settings tab of your build definition.
You can also build locally using MSBuild to see if the building works fine. We have to make sure local build succeed before VSO build since TFS build use MSBuild as its default compiler. Check the links below to see if they are helpful:

Hi, what is the no boot directory found about???
Can you give details step by step of what you're trying?

Sorting DRM copy protected files from an iTunes library

I want to copy my iTunes library, without picking up the DRM copy protected files.
Is there a way I can copy the files using a script that will skip the copy protected files?
Looking at get info the file type is different, unfortunately my scripting skills are remedial.
Thanks!

The easiest way to do this doesn't require AppleScript. In iTunes create a new "Smart Playlist". In the dialog that appears, select "Kind" from the first pull down menu, "does not contain" from the second pull down menu, and type "Protected" without the quotes in the text field. This will create a smart playlist of all of your non-DRM items. From there, select all of the items in the playlist and drag them to a folder in the Finder. Might be a long copy but it should do the job.

Cannot Import some iTunes into FCE - not a standard file?

Trying to import some music into FCE from iTunes.
Browsing window only will highlight certain music as "standard files" and only import those songs. Others are"greyed out" and when I switched the files list to "all files" and try to import then I get error message "1 files recognized 0 files access denied 1 unknown"

Ahhhhhhh! It's starting to make sense now. If the CD was properly formatted as an "Audio CD", the tracks should be recorded at 44.1khz. You can use QuickTime Pro, iTunes, SoundTrack Pro (any several other apps) to convert the tracks from the CD to AIF, 48khz, 16 bit Stereo.
If you use iTunes to do it, make sure you set the encoder to AIF (with the proper settings) in iTunes preferences before you begin.
Note that AIF and AIFF are the same - you may see it listed either way, depending on the app.

Imported video but audio did not come over

I imported a .flv file - the video came over but the audio did not. I can see the mouse movement on the video but no sound. Any ideas?
Thanks!!!

ricklab1 a écrit:
did a backup then a restore, windows 7 to windows 8.1 but non of the keytags got posted to the pictures. they did come over as tags but all were empty. any solution?
Please describe in more details what you did. The usual and recommended way to backup and restore is the built-in method of the Organizer:
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html
Was that what you did?
Your keywords (tags) are by stored by default in the catalog. You can also 'Write metadata to files' if you wish, but an Organizer restore does restore the tags of the files in the restored catalog; that is only necessary if you re-import the pictures in a new catalog or if you use another backup software.
they did come over as tags but all were empty. any solution?
Do you mean you got the hierarchy of categories and tags restored in the keyword panel, but that none of those keywords were assigned to pictures?
