Harry Houdini

While working on a project the timeline, toolbench, and canvas mysteriously disappear. Why, where, and how do I retrieve them? Apologies if already posted.

Disappearing Applications for aluminum Macbook

Honestly, I don't know if its me or if my computer is being haunted by harry houdini but it seems like every now and then I find an application disappearing? Im not sure if this is a common problem.
I don't have any disk cleaners disk fixers or anything, nothing. I'm pretty smart when it comes to deleting things so i'm highly positive that i couldn't have deleted them myself.
First was my mail app was missing, preview, textedit, adium, and activity monitor.
any ideas?

i'm having this problem also. never seen anything like it.
tonite i went to open garageband. got the ? in the dock. then noticed Bento, Audacity, Firefox, and more...all gone with absolutely no trace as though they never ever existed on my computer. the trash has things in it that have been there for weeks.
I've been using this current setup for some time now with no issues. spotlight reveals nothing. Find can't find any of it. Maybe a clue...my apps folder is re-arranged as are the folders on the main level of my hard drive (no partitions). I use no disk cleaning apps or anything.
Any ideas?

Graphic converter

Hey all,
I am going to use graphic converter for this documentery I am working on. The photos are largely in cymk format and I need everything in rgb. (blah blah.) My question is. Should I put the video filter on it and set to lower field, or is there a de-interlacer filter I should use. Or maybe somebody has a good setup for preping photos for FCP.
Thanks all.

formally postman, but lost the other apple id. Damm lost all my old posts

Call me old fashioned but in a thread called Graphic Converter asking about how to batch convert images for FCP, I would recommend the application Graphic Converter which has a comprehensive batch conversion system and costs considerably less than Photoshop.
You don't need to make any macros, just tell it what to do, what size to crop the images to, how to deinterlace them, what to save them as and it does it.

I downloaded it on the iTunes store on my computer.
I seen it downloading on iTunes under the rentals folder. Once the download was complete and it started processing iTunes froze for a bit and the movie pulled a Harry Houdini. I checked under purchased, movies, and looked for the rentals folder and got nothin'.

Well you need to find out what the error is and post it, because otherwise, only Harry Houdini can pull that rabbit out of the hat for you.
Harry would put a try/catch around the code and catch the exception and pull the rabbit out by its ears.

I can no longer find Harry Potter audio books on iTunes (April 2012)

I bought the first 3 Potter audio books in iTunes January 2012.
When I search the iTunes store, the Harry Potter audio books are no longer appearing. We just purchased the first 3 ones this year 2012 and would like to purchase the rest but they dont show up at the iTunes store.

Thanks.

ITunes blocks Harry Potter mp3s. Why ?

We recently bought the Harry Potter audio books in mp3 format. I can import them into iTunes but I can not get them into the iCloud or to any of my devices - iPads or iPhones. iTunes puts a NotCloud icon in the row for each. If you click on the icon you get a message "This item is not eligible for iCloud." In addition you can not drag any of the mp3s to any device. Basically iTunes will not let me listen to these mp3s. Why ? How do I get access to these mp3s that I have paid for on my iPads and iPhones ?

I have successfully gotten the Harry Potter mp3 digital audio books into iMatch and onto my device.
Chris CA: You did not previously state you had iTunes Match.
MHMH: My apologies. When I initially added them to the library they also had an icon of a cloud with a bar through it. I tried multiple scenarios with and without iMatch. Until they were set as audiobooks I made no progress.
- To get the mp3s into the cloud there are 2 steps that must be accomplished:
Chris CA: 1. Sign up for iTunes Match
then do the other steps...
There is a video on the Pottermore site that explains the scenario if you do not have iMatch. In that scenario you have to drag the files from your library to your device, unless you have sync options that load all music to your device.
Chris CA: Actually, set them as Audiobooks. select the Audiobooks tab and tick what you want to sync.
The error message that I was getting seems to have to do with the digital rights associated with the mp3s.
Chris CA: MP3 files do not (and cannot) contain any DRM.
MHMH: The information on the digital rights came from Apple Support Chat.
I believe that the mp3s are apparently identified as digital audio books and can not be put in the cloud as music. Somehow iTunes figures this out.
Chris CA: As Edward noted above, the low bitrate of these files is what prevents them from uploading to iTunes Match.
MHMH: Are you saying that they can not be uploaded as music because of the bit rate ? Or can not be uploaded at all because of the bit rate ?
The requirement that you manually have to specify these as audio books seems odd to me. iTunes can figure out that they need to be classified that way/ Why doesn't this happen automatically ?
Chris CA: Because they are simply an MP3 file with no tags to specifiy it is an audiobook. The tag for this is added after you add it to iTunes.
MHMH: So tagging them made it possible for iMatch to upload them ? with the lower bit rate ? I am pleased that I have access to the content. I am trying to net this out so that others do not have to go through this learning process. Thank you.

Free Harry Potter Audio Book???

I'm thinking of downloading iTunes because I recieved an iTunes add from Apple featuring Harry Potter 6. When I clicked the download button, it said that I would have to download iTunes first, before I could have access Harry Potter. I'm assuming that the audio book is free because there is no price shown on the add. My question is: Is Harry Potter audio truly free from iTunes? I have the Harry Potter CD's already from my local library. I love getting free audio books at the library. I couldn't imagine actually paying for an audio book. But it would be nice to have a personal copy if it was free. So are you guys all getting free audio books from iTunes? Is it worth the download?

I listen to audio books all the time, so at 50$ a pop I'd probablly have to win the lottery before I could afford everything on iTunes audio. Im just going to continue to get my audio books for free from the library like Ive been doing for years. Just a hint for everybody who likes audio books - if public library dosent have the audio book you want, you can request it and they will get it from another library in about a week, because all national public libraries are now interconnected with an exchange program. This even works with current best sellers like Harry Potter 6 which Im enjoying right now. I know iTunes is the in trendy thing, and some people think the library is for nerds, but I really cant justify having to pay so much money just to be cool. After all, its not like people are watching me listen to my audio books and saying, Oh my, thats not an iTunes copy, it must be a nerdy public library copy.

Popping, Cracking & Skipping on Harry Potter Audio CDs

Hey All!
I have heard this/my problem with files that weren't mine in the past, but now that it's happened to me, I need to find out what's going on.
I purchased the new/last Harry Potter book on CD. When I rip it, I find that the last 2 or 3 audio tracks/files contain popping, cracking or skipping in them, some very bad and hard to understand. I thought it was the CDs at first and took them back to the store for an exchange.
Once I had them home, it did it again. So on the tracks that I got popping on, I first went back to check the CD itself, some tracks sound perfect, so I would re-rip that individual file. Sometimes it'd work and other times it doesn't. Most times you can hear it on the CD and the MP3 file it made, other times you can only hear it on the CD.
Either way, I don't believe it's the CD. If I put the CD in our stereo, you don't hear any popping at all. Being it's always the last 2 or 3 files on each CD, I am thinking it's iTunes creating the issue. Maybe I need to try ripping it with another software to see, but the other programs I found were older OSX versions that either don't exist anymore or aren't supported (and they rip very very slowly).
Any thoughts or ideas from anyone...any suggestions what to try to use or any settings I should change?
Thanks,
Mike

Michael--I'm certainly no expert, but finding no answers to my problem which is almost exactly as you described, I tried this and so far so good. It may not be the best fix but it works for now.
All I did was to re-import the problem tracks as MP3 files and the popping and skipping were resolved.
I'd like to determine the cause of the problem and the best fix but with this, at least my immediate frustration has been relieved.
Best of luck!

Can't finish downloading Harry Potter book series

Hi,
We purchased the special edition harry potter ipod which came with the complete audio book set of all the harry potter books. we went to the itunes store, typed in the special secret code and started downloading. we downloaded for a very long time then the download stopped before all of the audio books had downloaded. We reconnected to the itunes store and typed the super special secret code in again, but they said this code had been used before and couldn't be used again.
So, we spent 20 minutes on the phone trying to get some help only to find out that there is no telephone support for the itunes store. So, we went to the apple website and submitted an email support request, but was told that will take 72 hours to process.
So we're here, begging the mighty apple corporation to please help my daughter download the hundreds of dollars of audio books we purchased from your store...if it's not too much trouble.

Hi Jeff, we are fellow users here and can't credit your account or anything.
Lucky kid, I'm a grownup who wouldn't mind have that Harry Potter iPod!
First check for interrupted downloads, and if that doesn't work, email iTMS Customer Support.

Purcahsed Harry Potter audio books missing

The first three Harry Potter audio books that I purchase over a year ago are missing and I cannot find them on my purchases list. I know they are no longer available to buy from itunes but surely the ones I've bought I can still access? They are not cheap so I would be very upset if I could't get them onto my computer.

Oh crap! Very new to this, I think I gave ME the 10 points instead of YOU : / That's a silly system.
Thankyou for your response. I booted up the old dusty lap top, backed up th file and have transfered in onto current PC.
Thanks again : )

How do I get the Harry Potter books to upload across all my devices?

Hi everyone, I recently purchased and downloaded the Harry Potter ebooks from the Pottermore shop and put them on my iBooks on my iMac. I noticed right away that they didn't appear on either my iPad or iPhone when I openned up the iBooks app on there. So I connected them to iTunes and put them on there and began reading one of them on my iPad. I went to go read it also on my iPhone but it is not updating to the last page I read on my iPad and I was wondering what I can do to let that happen? Is this because they are not in my iCloud because I didn't buy the books directly from the iBooks store? When downloaded they were in epub files. Any help would be awesome! Thanks!
