Help with exporting tracks from Garageband into iTunes please?!

I have voice-recorded a list of Italian words and phrases which I want to import into iTunes as separate tracks so that I can shuffle them & test myself to learn them. So far I have been using the cycle region to import each word but it is taking forever! I beieve it is not possible to have multpile cycle regions and have been playing about with the markers using the podcast track but I can't get it to export in chapters either.
Is there a way to split a single track in Garageband and import it as mulitple tracks into iTunes all at the same time?
Thanks for any help you can give me!

the chapters only work when you actually burn to CD. I assume that's correct?
for your purposes, yes (technically it would create podcast style chapters so you could jump past a section, for instance, but not in a shuffle fashion like you want)

I'm guessing that will take an awful lot of CDs?!
you could use a re-writtable, but no, this doesn't sound like a really workable solution for what you're doing.

Just two of the chapters has already become 220 'songs' in iTunes and over 20MB.
one thing you should be doing is selecting the "compress" option in the export dialogue. you can probably use very aggressive compression for spoken word since hi-fidelity wouldn't be that important (you might experiment with a custom setting to see how low you can go with it still being acceptable)

I wonder how much would fit onto a CD
in terms of audio, it's time, not disc space. a standard CD holds 74 minutes of audio (some store 80)
you could try an audio editor instead of GB:

(Let the page FULLY load. The link to your answer is at the top of your screen)
but GB is probably the most simple option

  • Help with exporting data from pdf form

    I have about 100 pdf forms that I created in adobe forms central and distributed as a pdf form (rather than on the web). I am trying to export the data into a spreadsheet but when I export it, the fields are all jumbled in the csv file, as in they are not in the same order. I need to export the data all together so I'm going to the forms menu and selecting "manage form data" and then selecting "merge data files into spreadsheet". I tried exporting a single file but that gave me something really weird.
    Please help, I have a deadline next week to analyze this data and can't make sense of it once it is exported to a spreadsheet.

    Would you please share your form with me and send me one of your pdf forms and some of the csv files?
    You can share your form by doing the following:
    1. Click on the “Share” icon on the bottom left corner.
    2. Click on “Add Collaborator” on the popup menu.
    3. Enter [email protected] under “People to share with”.
    4. Set subject to "Export data from pdf form"
    5. Click the “Share” button on the bottom right of the dialog.
    Thanks

  • Help! Exporting tracks from FCP to pull into a Compressor 5.1 mix

    Hi all
    I'm having difficulties pulling audio tracks out of FCP 6 into Compressor to create a 5.1 mix for a DVD, and wondered if anyone could offer advice.
    Our sound mixer has given us stereo and 5.1 WAV tracks, which I've laid into separate sequences under picture. (I would love to drop his tracks straight into Compressor, but they have messy heads, and include 2-pops, so I'm first aligning them with the video track in FCP.)
    When I export the stereo tracks, I create a stereo mix, getting one AIFF file, which goes into Compressor's 2.0 process to create an ac3 file. All well and good.
    But how should I export the 5.1 tracks? Bear in mind that I don't want to do any kind of "mixdown" in FCP, which I'm afraid is happening. The tracks are laid in this order: L, R, C, Lf, Ls, Rs.
    This is what I did:
    In FCP, set in and out points where I want to trim the audio
    In Audio Settings for the sequence, set all 6 tracks to Dual Mono and level at 0. (I can't help but suspect this is where I'm going wrong...)
    Export - Audio to AIFF, and set export to "Channel Grouped". This gives me six separate AIFF files. BUT! Files 1 and 2 are blank (although they have the correct duration), file 3 (which I expected to be track 3 - center) has M&E but no dialog. Track 4 (LFE) has all the dialog! And 5 and 6 also sound blank.
    Now, if I set Audio Settings to 5.1 (first pair stereo, 3 and 4 dual mono, and last pair stereo) I can't hear the center track playback (I only have stereo speakers).
    What am I doing wrong? Am I misunderstanding the export process in FCP? Should I just give up and try to trim the WAV tracks outside of FCP (if so, what do you recommend - Soundtrack perhaps?) and then drop them into Compressor?
    Many thanks
    Matt

    OK. I found the solution!
    The six "audio outputs" do NOT automatically correspond to the tracks A1 ... A6. In fact, in my sequence (I don't know if this is default), A1 went to output 3, and the rest of the tracks went to output 4. Go figure.
    To set the outputs correctly, you do have to set six outputs, dual mono and zero levels, which I did, but then right-click in each audio track (between the A1 label and the padlock icon) and set the output to the required file. So track 1 should go to output 1, track 2 to output 2, and so on.
    My outputs now sound right - hooray! I'll mix it down and make a test DVD now.
    Phew. Hope this helps someone else out.
    One question that comes out of this: for a stereo mix, am I safe to export as a stereo mix in FCP? (Which is what I've been doing.) The FCP/Compressor process won't somehow be downmixing it twice? I don't see any way to pull two mono files into Compressor for a 2.0 mix. Thanks!

  • Help with retrieving emails from Gmail into Mail

    Help! I'm helping my mom with her computer and her hard drive died (not backed up of course). She has a new hard drive now and I am importing her emails from her Gmail account into Mail. It worked great importing all the emails that she has since July 15th (the last time she retrieved mail from her Gmail account). If I go into Gmail through Safari I can she has hundreds more emails prior to this date still on their servers but they didn't download into Mail. I presume this is because Gmail knows they have been downloaded once before (to her old dead hard drive), but how do I get around this so all of her emails can be imported into Mail? The only copies are on the Gmail servers.
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Scott

    Okay, then let's try this:
    1. Quit Mail.
    2. Go to Home/Library/Mail and remove (don't copy and don't empty the Trash) the POP mailbox.
    3. Go to Home/Library/Preferences and remove the com.apple.mail.plist file.
    4. Restart Mail, setup your POP account again and it should connect to Gmail and download all the messages. If it does, then you can delete the file and folder you previously removed.

  • Can't import or play tracks from CD in Itunes

    Hi,
    I am unable to import or play any of my songs from my CDs in ITunes 6.0.2. In the past, I had no problem with this.
    I tried selecting a song from a CD located on the ddesktop and opening Quicktime instead and I was once again unable to play the song. The songs in my Itunes library work fine and I am able to play these. Then I inserted an old CD again which is part of my Itunes library already and this time it refused to play or import the tracks.
    By the way, a little while ago I had a problem with my MAC and lost my whole Itunes library. I downloaded a program called IPodRip in order to restore my Itunes library from my IPod. Since then I have not imported any new songs whatsoever. I am wondering if this has something to do with the problem I am experiencing now???
    Any suggestions anyone?
    Thank you

    it's relatively common (at least, common enough to be mentioned in troubleshooting documents and i see it reported in posts a few times each week):
    You can't import or play music from an audio CD in iTunes for Windows
    i don't have an especially good feel for how much this would help with this particular issue, but it might be worth following up on checking for upgraded firmware or drivers for the PC. these resources might be of some help with that:

  • Exporting tracks from Logic 8

    Hi,
    i've figured out that when I'm exporting tracks from Logic ("export all tracks as audio files"). Some of them get automatically normalized and don't have the actual volume of the "mixdown".
    Does anybody now, why this happens? I guess it happens only with Logic's own synths and not with 3rd party plugins.

  • Having issues with putting purchased music back into iTunes after reinstall

    I have been having issues with iTunes closing itself out right after I open it. I deleted the program, then re-installed it, which fixed the problems with quitting. However, I cannot copy my previous library back into iTunes. I saved the iTunes music file and the .xml file to my desktop before uninstalling the program. When I tried to add the music back into iTunes, I keep getting this message: Attempting to copy the disk "Macintosh HD" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to. It does not appear on all songs that I tried to add back, but it happened for quite a few of my purchased songs. Is there any way to fix the files or do I need to download the songs again? I tried running the Disk Utility to repair Permissions, but that has not helped with anything.
    I am running iTunes on a MacBook with Mac OS X 10. 4. 11, if that will help with anything.

    I had to reinstall Windows XP, erasing everything on the hard disk. I had saved the music files with backup software, so I now have them back. But iTunes won't add them to my library. I tried importing songs from a new CD to see where iTunes put those files, and then copying an album folder into the same location. But Windows wouldn't copy the files inside the foder. Nearly all the songs were originally taken from CDs in my collection, and the songs are still on my iPod Nano.
    Wow,
    Wonder why XP won't let you copy files?, perhaps you used a different user name?
    Or these are the old DRM versions of the songs? You should be able to log into your iTunes account and authorize the computer and iTunes should recognize the songs.
    Well since you have the iPod Nano, you can head over to iLounge and ask them what current third party software works to move your iPod Nano music back to iTunes.
    Hope that works out for you

  • Is there a way you can simply drop singles from downloads into itunes without disrupting layout

    Is there a way you can simply drop singles from downloads into itunes without disrupting layout, so you can say put some recently downloaded singles off the net into your own various  folder without messing up the whole neatness of all the other album covers by adding fifty plus single covers...
    ie. I just dropped a Naughty boy La la la single into my perfect looking iTune library and it does this...
    Adds it as an album cover with no pic, and even if I add a pic, it isn't an album anyways!
    I realise I can probably create and rename every single downloaded single to exactly the same info etc, but this is sooooooooo long winded!
    Please help! everything else works perfect apart from this!

  • Exporting links from Photoshop into a PDF (Rich Content PDF?)

    Hi there,
    I built my resume in Photoshop and typically I've been exporting to a PDF and then handling link creation within Adobe Acrobat itself. I'm wondering if there's a way to streamline this process such that links can be created within Photoshop and exported directly into the PDF file. This would save me the hassle of recreating links in Acrobat every time I modified the resume in Photoshop.
    I've read about a Rich Content PDF extension/extra that is typically located in the Extras folder. I was able to successfully locate it and have Photoshop use it, but I don't know how to get links to actually be recognized by this plugin. My original hypothesis was to use slices (designating a region as a slice and then assigning it a link), but the Rich Content PDF export option did not recognize links through slices. Is there another way to do this or another way to create links in Photoshop such that it can be exported to a PDF (either through this plugin or otherwise)?
    Thanks!

    And what program would you recommend?
    In addition, the resume is already created in the program I'm comfortable with - I'm certainly not opposed to picking up a new tool and learning how to use it, but my question specifically was simply asking if there was a way to export links from Photoshop into a PDF as that would be the most time-efficient.
