Flash 8 and MX co-existing

Hi
One quick question for any Macroserfs on here: can Flash 8
and Flash MX co-
exist peacefully on the same machine?
I ask because I have Captivate 1 and Flash 8 on my machine,
and need to
export a Captivate movie to Flash MX format to pass to
another developer.
Of course, when I try to do this in Captivate it tells me I
can only do
this if I've Flash MX installed. The support database has a
technote on
this (
http://www.adobe.com/go/b332bfba)
which advises how to export from
Captivate into Flash 8, but that's not what I'm after as the
other
developer only has MX. (No, she's not going to cough up for
an upgrade.)
So what I want to do is install Flash MX on my machine to
live side by side
in perfect harmony with my copy of Flash 8, but I'm reluctant
to do this
until I know that the MX installation isn't going to knacker
my 8
installation. If they won't co-exist then I'll have to find a
Flash-free
machine somewhere, install Captivate and Flash MX on that,
then export the
Captivate movies, but that would be a time-consuming PITA.
TIA for any reassurance.
Cheers
Fred

  • Posing a question for those well versed in flash and flex

    I would like to start an off-line communication chat with those of you who are well versed in Flash and Flex.
    I've worked with Cold Fusion but I am not up to date on all the technologies available.  This seems like the perfect forum for this question.
    I simply want to build an application (web or desktop is unknown) in which a person can learn a foreign language, in this case English.
    I need some technical advice as to whether Flash, Flex, or a combination of technologies (Cold Fusion for server side functionality) is the best choice for this application.  I do not understand the technical aspects of Flash or Flex in building applications so I need the advice of you experts.
    As with most foreign language textbooks, audio, or foreign language video training, the material is not interesting, not pertinent to daily life, and is great for late night insomnia.  I've never seen any type of foreign language training that is interesting, fun, or uses current events as part of the curriculum.
    I would like to illustrate my idea with an example.  I want to use an existing English beginners textbook (for kids), scan the images in the textbook, store the content (rules of grammar) in a database and store example sentences in a database.
    I would like to record basic audio sentences from the textbook (Do you know tomorrow's weather), incorporate some animation (baseball player hitting a home run), incorporate some basic video (purchasing an item at the grocery store), add a quiz, test question or puzzles, etc..
    In addition, since this is a classroom setting and the kids are split into groups, I would like to store a seating chart with the kids names and pictures in a database.  After the first segment is finished (e.g. purchasing a toy at the store) the kids next perform an activty.  I want to use a combination of audio, video, and animation to explain the activity, give instructions, split the class into groups,and perform the activity.
    As I mentioned before, I would like to start an off-line discusion for those of you who are willing to share some of you knowledge and experience with both Flash and Flex.  Since you are extremely busy, maybe you might be able to point me in the right direction.
    Hopefully, some of you can provide some sound technical advice.
    Thanks in advance

    This is an abitious project even for some-one well versed in flex/flash, i have to give you points for outstanding courage on this .
    You need to cover quite a few areas in a project like this both for the client and the back end, you need a strong understanding of animation(either through code or the flash timeline), data parsing, logic trees for the quiz/test elements and a lot more before the first line of code would be written.
    In Australia there are already a few companies using flex for online educational applications and at least 1 state educational Authority. A search on the internet will find several sites pertaining to flash/flex based online education software and this would be a starting point to give you an idea of the strength flex has in this area.
    Beyond this it is not the sort of project that 'help' would be readily available for unless it was relating to very specific issues you could readily define. Also this is not the best forum to request this type of help as the forum is more about testing a beta product. I am sure that if you start learning about flex and have trouble understanding different aspects of how things work there will be plenty of support from the flex community.

  • Flash and Go live

    Hi
    I have recently acquired Flash and I would like to place SWF
    files in existing HTML pages, it works great in GO Live preview,
    but when I go out to the web to check it out the SWF file is
    replaced by a white box the size of the file..

    Without seeing a full list of the files that you have, its impossible to know what you have. I'm guessing that you have a bunch of files that were used to create a web site. Go Live was an Adobe product that was used to write .html documents. When Adobe acquired Macromedia they abandoned Go Live and adopted Dreamweaver as their html tool. Livemotion was also an Adobe product what was a competitor to Macromedia's Flash. It had a very short life. The .sit file that you have may be a compressed copy of the actual application file for the Macintosh platform.
    I doubt that there is any sort of "project" file that contains any information about the makeup of the project. There is, most likely, an index.html or default.html that should be the starting point for the site. If you start with that, you might be able to sort out the various files that you have and their relationship with each other.
    You can open the .html files in any text editor or an html editor like Dreamweaver. Never, ever, open an html file in Word. If you have Flash .fla files, those can be opened in Flash. If you have Flash .swf files, you will need a decompiler to get to an editable file. The .liv files are from LiveMotion. You may or may not want to mess with those.

  • My MacBook was acting weird so I restarted it and when I login a white screen flashes and goes back to the login page. Help?

    My MacBook was acting weird like sometimes I would log on and I wouldn't be able to type my password for a couple seconds,but it usually logged in after that. Then I left my computer open after installing the recent update after that all my applications were not responding. So I shut it down, when I turned it back on about an hour later it went to this loading screen and then to the login like usual. After I tried logging in a white screen flashed and it went back to the login/ password screen like nothing happened. Any ideas on what happened and what I can do to fix it?

    Reinstall OS X;
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Adobe 'fixes' for Flash and Dreamweaver

    According to what I've been reading, Adobe added fixes to
    Dreamweaver 8.02 to deal with the Active Content problem created by
    Microsoft when Flash animations are embedded in web pages. Since I
    have an earlier version of Dreamweaver and Flash and am having
    problems like everyone else with that issue, would some 8.02 user
    kindly inform me if this is indeed the case, and what does one do
    in the new version to ensure Flash active content runs as intended?
    Is it something that one must still manually add to the code in an
    .html file, is the correction added automatically, is there an icon
    to press....just how is the new feature/fix used and incorporated?
    I'd like to know before considering an update. Thank
    you..............frank

    http://www.adobe.com/support/dreamweaver/downloads_updaters.html#dw8
    Basically after you update if you add a flash file you get
    this code added to the html file:
    <script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js"
    type="text/javascript"></script>
    and that folder (Scripts) and (fileAC_RunActiveContent.js)
    are automatically created with your project. When you import a swf
    file the code that is automatically generated is also updated with
    a snippet of code to fix the AC issue:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0','wid th','404','height','368','src','~movies','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.macrom edia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','~movies'
    ); //end AC code
    </script><noscript>
    You dont really have to do anything other then remember to
    upload the scripts folder to your server when you publish.

  • Flash and Fireworks combination

    Macromedia MX: I am working on an image in Fireworks and
    would like to incorporate a flash movie into this image so that I
    can put it into Dreamweaver for my website. A quick example of the
    image is a square inside a square (kinda like a TV set). Is there a
    way to layer the Flash movie into the Fireworks image so that the
    Flash movie plays inside the inner square but is not visible on the
    outer square? (since it would overlap somewhat) Would I import the
    image from Fireworks to Flash and work on it there, or import the
    Fireworks image into Dreamweaver and insert the Flash movie there?
    I am not sure how to go about this task. Thanks for any
    suggestions.

    P-C-Surgeonz;
    You can't "layer"a flash swf into an image, but you can
    "insert" the
    image and flash into your html separately using
    dreamweaver--but IMO
    importing the png fireworks png into flash, and just
    embedding the flash is
    easier. -Tom Unger

  • Bios Flashing and Recovery

    BIOS FLASHING
    We do not recommend using the MSI LiveUpdate tool to update your BIOS! It may be okay for updating your drivers, but please do not use it to flash the BIOS in Windows!
    Windows-based flashing - If you REALLY insist on flashing the BIOS under Windows, if you encounter any error during flashing, whatever you do, DON'T restart your PC! Try again until the flash is successful, otherwise your board will not start! Disable any anti-virus program (along with any other programs) prior to flashing.
    Boards with built-in M-Flash function - While M-Flash work's properly most of the time, it has still proved to be less reliable than the forum tool / manual flash.
    Before flashing your BIOS, you must ensure your system is fully stable! Any instabilities can cause a bad flash and create an expensive paper weight. Included with the forum flash tool is MEMTEST, we recommend running this for 2 or more passes prior to a flash.
    If you do not understand what your BIOS is, or what it does, please read: >> BIOS. What it is, and all you need to know <<
    Our first choice we recommend you use is our own USB flashing tool, developed by Svet.
    It is important to note, that the only way to flash the ME extension of the BIOS of modern Intel boards is through the use special processes. The bios versions posted by moderators here: >>BIOSes<< include the additional files to accomplish this. These bios are all official and are directly from MSI.
    >>>MSI Forum HQ USB Flashing Tool<<<
    If you are unable to use the MSI HQ USB BIOS Flashing Tool
    >>How to create a dos bootable USB stick>>
    It is important to note that if any BIOS, EC FIRMWARE or any other type of FIRMWARE downloaded from MSI for a manual flash contains an BAT file it must be used. Not doing so will cause the flash to fail and require RMA.
    For Intel Users, flash via FPT
         Socket LGA 1150           : >>ME 9 FPT files & Instruction>>
    Many of the bios versions posted here: >>BIOSes<< Contain a .bat file. All you need to do is extract all of the contents of the archive into the root directory of a DOS bootable USB stick and run the bat file from pure DOS.
         Socket LGA 1155 & 2011: >>ME 7&8 FPT Files and instruction<<
    Linux users
    See this topic: >>Flash your BIOS, the Linux way! [beware the dangers!!]<<
    Modified and BETA BIOSes
    Use only at your own risk! All BETA BIOS versions posted by the moderators of this forum are directly from MSI and will not effect your warranty.The use of user modified BIOS versions may damage the board and may void your warranty. Exercise extreme caution in regards to user posted BIOS versions. Please also be aware that MSI and this forum can not be held responsible if you trash your mobo by using a modded, beta or otherwise incorrect BIOS.
    WHEN IT ALL GOES WRONG...
    BIOS RECOVERY
    In many cases, provided the 'bootblock' of your BIOS is not corrupted during a bad flash, the BIOS can often be recovered by following the recovery procedures detailed below. NOTE: this recovery method should not be followed for normal practice of updating your BIOS!
    For Modern MSI Systems, refer to:
    <<Multi-Bios Equipped Mainboards>>
    <<Single-Bios Equipped Mainboards>>
    Legacy Systems:
     For Award BIOS
    Make a bootable floppy disk*
    Copy the Award flash utility & BIOS file to the said floppy disk
    Create an autoexec.bat with "Award_Flash_Utility BiosFilename" in the content (e.g. awdfl823K w6378vms.130)
    Sample on how to create an autoexec:
    a. On Windows, open the notepad
    b. On the notepad, write "awdfl823K w6378vms.130" (without the " ")**
    c. Save the file as autoexec.bat
    Boot up system with the said floppy (it will take less than 2 minutes before screen comes out)
    Re-flash the BIOS & reboot.
    *Need a bootable floppy disk? Look here: http://www.bootdisk.com
    **Make sure you enter the correct filenames for your flasher program and BIOS ROM file!
     For AMI BIOS
    Rename the desired AMI BIOS file to AMIBOOT.ROM and save it on a floppy disk. e.g. Rename A569MS23.ROM to AMIBOOT.ROM
    Insert this floppy disk in the floppy drive. Turn On the system and press and hold Ctrl-Home to force update. It will read the AMIBOOT.ROM file and recover the BIOS from the A drive.
    When 4 beeps are heard you may remove the floppy disk and restart the computer.
     For new boards with AMI BIOS core 8 (4MB)
    Discovered by Jack The Newbie:
    Of course, the steps are similar to the standard AMI BIOS Recovery Procedure for internal floppy drives (rename corresponding BIOS File to AMIBOOT.ROM, hit CTRL + HOME after starting the system).
    What has to be done (tested on P45 Platinum):
    1. An optical SATA Drive needs to be connected to one of the Intel ICH10R SATA ports. {After a lot of testing, I found that it does not work with the same optical drive connected to the SATA Ports hosted by the secondary JMicron Controller.  Also, using an optical drive on the JMicron IDE/PATA port does not help either.}
    2. A proper BIOS File has to be renamed to AMIBOOT.ROM and burned on an empty CD.
    3. CMOS-Clear with main A/C power cable removed from PSU has to be performed. {If this step is not done, the system will reboot after pressing CTRL + Home and will not proceed with recovery procedure.}
    4. Press CTRL + Home to trigger BIOS Recovery.  -> The system should enter BIOS Recovery Routine. {Will basically work with both USB & PS/2 keyboard.  However, a PS/2 Keyboard is recommended as the system will respond earlier to PS/2 Keyboard than to USB Devices.}
    What should happen now:
    1. After pressing CTRL + HOME the LED Status should change to "Intializing Hard Disk Controller" and there should be access to the optical drive connected to the Intel ICH10R SATA ports.
    2. It can take up to 30+ seconds until the BIOS File that was renamed to AMIBOOT.ROM is found. {Drive Bay can be opened to try a different CD without turning off or restarting the system.}
    3. When the system finds the BIOS File, LED Status will change to "Testing RTC" and there should be a message on the screen indicating that the Flash Recovery Procedure has started.
    4.  Since the BIOS File is 4MB in size, it will take a while until the BIOS is actually reflashed.
    Its also possible that BIOS recovery on boards with AMIBIOS8 can be done using a FAT-formatted USB stick, containing the renamed BIOS file. Be warned, in some circumstances it may take several moments before recovery procedure actually begins. See Bas' reply below for further information.
    BIOS recovery on Wind netbooks
    See this post here:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=130509.msg982711#msg982711
    BIOS recovery on non-UEFI notebooks
    In order to recovery this type of system you will need an FAT32 formatted USB stick.
    Download the applicable bios from MSI's website and rename this bios.
    It must be re-named to either AMIBOOT.ROM or xxxxIMS.ROM / xxxxAMS.ROM  You may need to try each way to determine which one is necessary.
    Then place the renamed bios onto the root directory of the FAT32 formatted USB stick.
    Now you are ready to cover the Notebook.
    To do this, remove the AC power cord and battery. Once that has been completed, install the USB stick you prepared earlier.
    Now, apply AC power (leaving the battery disconnected) and turn on the notebook. Recovery should begin after 5 minutes.
    IF ALL ELSE FAILS...
    Locate the BIOS chip on your mainboard. If it is soldered directly to the PCB like...
    ...then you have no choice but to return the board to your supplier, or to MSI, for replacement.
    To request an RMA from MSI, open a support ticket at https://register.msi.com/ocss/
    If your BIOS chip is in a socket, like...
    ...then you may be able to source a replacement BIOS chip, either from MSI, or from a website such as www.badflash.com
    Updated 11/21/2013, original post by Stu

         A.) Download >>this<< bios archive and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
         B.) Download and install the >>MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<< .
         C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
         D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
         E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
         F.) Boot to the USB from working bios B.
         G.) Once it booted successfully switch to bios A without powering down or rebooting
         H.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash bios A with desired version

  • Downloading and editing an existing WordPress site in Dreamweaver CS5.

    Hello! New to the forums, here.
    I'll try to be brief. I've got a WordPress site in-place at metalmeter.com that is hosted through HostGator. Basically, what I'm looking to do is get the site from the remote server and edit it in Dreamweaver CS5, previewing all changes on a local testing server before putting the updated contents back on the remote server.
    Now, let me be clear: I've tried plenty of the tutorials. I've watched hours of videos. I still can't get it configured properly. I've got the FTP connection to the remote server running smoothly. I've got XAMPP installed. I'm having difficulties (and I apologize for being vague), and I just don't know where the problem is located. In my htdocs folder for XAMPP, I've got two subfolders 'metalmeter' for the remote server's downloaded contents, and 'wordpress' for the wordpress installation that every page seems to be pointing me toward. What confuses me is that when I try and open the uppermost index.php file on the remote server, the dynamically discovered content is not being displayed in the live view with my local testing server. I want to be viewing my existing WordPress site in its entirety exactly as I see it online while I'm editing it, and then pushing back updated files to the /public_html/ root directory of the remote server so that I can edit the site from my local client. I'm extremely new to Dreamweaver, so any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
    If you know how to do exactly what I'm trying to do and have been successfully viewing and editing your existing WordPress site in Dreamweaver for upload, please take some time to explain the set-up. I'd be forever in your debt!

    I've been following this discussion for a while now and I don't understand why you hope to edit articles from DW.  That's what the WP Admin panel is specifically designed for.  Besides, you won't find your articles in any of the site files because they don't exist there.
    I agree I don't see any reason to want to edit a Wordpress site in Dreamweaver. If you are using Wordpress then you may as well put Dreamweaver in the bin. Although people do actually want to edit and manipulate the design in Dreamweaver (including myself) and from what I've read its possible but I've never found a source which explains fully how to achieve this and those that I have it seems too much effort to even bother about.
    I guess the Dreamweaver environment feels more like home and is more user friendly.
    To put it another way, a typical WordPress installation contains around 800 files in some 80 folders.  Those files don't contain any content, just a whole lot of PHP code.   In fact, the only page most people ever see on your site is the index.php page which is dynamically created over & over by the server with content from the MySql and various include files.
    For sure and that's why people who use Dreamweaver and feel the need to manipulate a Wordpress site in Dreamweaver because Wordpress is 'in vogue' get lost. Wordpress just containes a lot of pages with nothing to see apart from some php, many of who will not understand one jot.
    Unless you're a coding guru, you should definitely NOT touch any of the core WP files as this could cripple your site.  If you want to customize your Theme, look at the CSS and include files in your Themes folder.   See Anatomy of a WordPress Theme:http://yoast.com/wordpress-theme-anatomy/
    lol your not wrong there!
    For a quick tip on Theming, open your remote site in Firefox equipped with the 'Web Developer Toolbar'.  Edit CSS on screen.  Save changes to your local site and upload it to the remote server.  No testing server required. 
    Wordpress is Wordpress and Dreamweaver is Dreameaver. As far as I can make out the two don't mix.
    Ideally you would just choose a Wordpress theme which most relates to the nice site you have designed in Fireworks of which you won't find any however goodthe themes are. Then manipulate the themes css that's if you can understand it. Even for a seasoned css expert its heavy going because everyone produces css differently to achieve the same results.
    Leave Wordpress well anlone unles you're going to use it out of the box so to speak or as a web-developer don't mind a bit of reverse engineering.

  • How to Create a trigger code for turning on light bulbs in flash and animate images professional cs6

    hi,
        i designed a very interactive music website in illustrator and photoshop and i am trying to animate the main page design in flash professional and eventually publish it as HTML5. There are couple of questions i need to ask before starting
    1) should i import my design in differnet layers from illustrator into flash professional in order to make it easier to isolate and animate specific parts of the web page?
    2) i want to have a roll over effect that allows certain features in the page to turn on and off when the mouse hovers over them. can you explain how to do that? any tutorial videos i could follow
    3) what format should i use when importing my illustrator design into flash professional
    4) how should i animate the content pop out from the safe box into the main screen in flash professional (i have never used this program before, so i will be going off video tutorials and whatever suggestions/help you would have)
    **The idea is to have a content frame fly out of the safe into the screen (the size will increase rapidly and it will fade into the screen as well while rotating 360 degrees for one revolution). The content is a basic rectangular frame i designed in illustrator. The body of this frame will be transparent allowing me to embed the main page features into it eg music, videos, bio etc. All this will be done in the later process, the main issue is figuring out how to animate the content frame into the screen and also creating a click feature that allows the content to fly back into the safe and then the safe closing in.
    Secondly, the trigger code rollover effect that allows certain features light to turn on when the mouse hovers over it and turn over when its not.****

    I think you'll get most flexibility by turning on the feature that lets you keep your Illustrator layers as Flash layers. You'll also want to check the box that lets you make an Illustrator object into a MovieClip for anything that you want to interact with or address through code.
    Add an event listener for MOUSE_OVER that triggers whatever functions you need to create to turn on the features. This means that your object that you will mouse over will need to be a MC, as well as any other objects that will be addressed (for example, calling play()) will need to be a MC. You'll want to have a matching MOUSE_OUT handler that stops MC's, hides them, or whatever.
    You should probably organize your Illustrator file so that the objects you need to address are on their own layers. This includes nested objects. Name things informatively. Remember, if the first import doesn't give you exactly what you want, you don't have to save the change--you can edit your settings or the Illustrator file and try again.
    Look into motion tweens. I highly recommend the books "How to Cheat at Flash" and "Animation with Scripting." I don't really think the way they tell you to script will advance your career if you want to be a software architect, but if you just want to animate the occasional widget, it's fine.

  • I continually get a Java error. I've uninstalled and reinstalled firefox and nothing has helped. I've updated flash and Java.

    I have used Firefox as my default browser for many years. I've recently started getting a Java error message. It pops up continually. I have updated flash and java. I have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox and nothing has helped. I have had to start using Chrome instead of Firefox which I don't care for but I don't have the java error with Chrome. How do I fix this problem? The error reads as follows:
    Java Script Application
    Error: syntax error

    Your '''JavaScript''' error has nothing to do with the Java plugin . It is likely caused by an added extension (the earlier forum threads [/questions/944619] and [/questions/943088] mention disabling or updating the Social Fixer extension will resolve the problem).

  • 1. I have an iPod which has purchases synced with I tunes with an apple ID. I now have an iPad with a new ID for cloud. I have cloud storage capacity of 5gb which came with the iPad. How can I use one ID and store my existing music in cloud?

    HI Frostyfrog
    CHeck out iTunes Match which has an annual fee of £21 or thereabouts. You can store a maximum of 25,000 songs there and they all become available on your other kit, iPhone, iPad and iPod. I know it works as I have over 23000 songs uploaded of which only a few we're bought through iTunes.
    it works by comparing your music to the whole iTunes music dadata base so you access the same tunes that you could get from iTunes. If you have obscure stuff, it uploads your own music to the cloud as a copy.
    I Find it incredible that on my iPhone with its 16gb memory I can view almost 200 gb of music (ie my 23000 songs) and play any of them. Anything I add to iTunes becomes available via the cloud fairly quickly from a few minutes or a little longer if adding a lot.
    The first time you use it it will take quite a while to match your music if you have a lot, but after that it is all automatic. Read the stuff on the apple site. Your PC needs to be at least running Vista. I recommend it and at less than 50p a week it's good value.
    Good luck

  • How do I find and include pre-existing music files on my PC?

    I'm new to iTunes and believe that I should be able to find and include pre-existing music files on my PC?
    I've found out how to show the menu bar but I can't see how to do the above except file/folder by file/folder.

    Hello there, LeighCenturion.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides instruction on how to add content from your computer to iTunes:
    Adding music and other content to iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1473#2
    Specifically:                     
    Adding content on your computer to iTunes
    iTunes helps you add digital audio and video files on your computer directly to your iTunes library. You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats. You can also add video content in QuickTime or MPEG-4 format to iTunes. To learn how to add these files to iTunes follow the steps below.
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add
    If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.
