How can I detect damaged tracks?

My music hard drive crashed awhile back. Now some of the songs play fine, but others play partially and then change to white noise. Obviously the files have been damaged, but the file size has not changed and there is no way of telling which ones are damaged without playing them.
I'd do this manually if there were only a few, but I've got many thousands of songs.
Does anyone know of a utility that can read audio files and look for "damaged" tracks?
Thanks...

You could try dougscripts.com. Apparently there's one named Super Remove Dead Tracks

  • How can I repair damaged pdf files?

    I have several hundreds of damaged pdf files and want to repair them. I need to know how to repair them, for example with a software!

    Hello Sukrit,
    thank you for your reply!
    I have deleted the PDF Files and needed to recover them. The size will be shown, but I can't open all of them.
    I would like to recover them again or change them again to PDF files, if possible.
    With regards,

    Hi Stephan ,
    Acrobat is capable of repairing the damaged PDF' ,however it depends on the requirement as to how do you want to repair them.
    There could be several reasons that can damage a PDF.
    We need to know the cause that has damaged those PDF' and how exactly you want to repair them in order to assist you accordingly .

  • How can I detect a dialog and respond?

    I'm having trouble doing something that's probably not that hard. I'm trying to "Print to PDF" a bunch of old AppleWorks documents. When you open a document created in AppleWorks v6 it opens right up, but when you open a document created in AppleWorks 5 you get a dialog box that says, "This document was created by a previous version of AppleWorks. A copy will be opened and "[v6.0]" will be added to the filename."
    Right now I open the file and then:
    tell application "AppleWorks 6"
            activate
            repeat while not (exists front document)
                    delay .2
            end repeat
    end tell
    When the dialog box pops up, there's no front document so the whole thing freezes until you hit OK. How can I detect this dialog box and dismiss it?
    Thanks
    PS
    When the box is open I ran this and got this result:
    /usr/bin/osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get properties of windows of application process "AppleWorks 6"'

    Hi,
    The simplest would be to set the application preferences in the script.
    Like this :
    -- *** set prefs ****
    tell application "AppleWorks 6"
          activate
          set oldPrefs to its preferences
          copy oldPrefs to tPrefs
          tell tPrefs
                set old version warning to false --doesn't show the old version warning alert  
                set converted file suffix to true -- append “[v6.0]” to documents converted from older formats
                set locked file warning to false
                set paint reduction warning to false
          end tell
          set preferences to tPrefs
    end tell
    -- *** end set prefs ****
    --**** your script, example ***
    set tfiles to choose file with multiple selections allowed
    tell application "AppleWorks 6"
          repeat with i in tfiles
                open i
                tell front document
                      -- do something
                end tell
          end repeat
    end tell
    --**** end  your script ***
    -- *** reset prefs ****
    tell application "AppleWorks 6" to set preferences to oldPrefs

  • How can I detect a certain text within a field within CASE using IF

    Dear all,
    for a transformation / generation of values receiving from R/3 into BW I try to
    manupulate three fields. I have a problem detecting a string in a field.
    I am using a CASE with several WHEN clauses on one field. Depending on the
    value, an IF is integrated. There I look into another field evaluating, if it contains
    a certain string. E.g. IF STRING CP 'xyz' OR 'abc'.
    System gives error for the locigal expression. I also tried CS, but same error.
    How can I detect a certain text within a field and which is the right logical
    expression.
    Many thanks in advance!!!

  • How can i detect if my PC is not on Network..... Urgent Pls Help Soon !!!!!

    Hello Everyone,
    We all know whenever we try to connect to a PC which is not on network, we get UnKnownHostException etc..... by which we can detect that the corresponding PC is not an network(intranet/internet)
    But when i send a msg from my PC to my PC, it works fine even if the network is down. I hv provided my PC's IP address instead of using localhost or 127.0.0.1 which reduces the possibility that the msg will not be traversed thru the network.
    Any IDEA how this works.
    Is There any possible way by which i can detect that my PC is not on network or the PC to which i'm trying to connect is not on network .......
    Pls help me out, its really urgent as to be implemented in my Project
    Thanks In Advance

    Pls see if u canhelp me out ......

  • TS4006 How can I find or track  my iPad mini when it keeps showing offline on the find my iPhone app?

    You can't. If its offline it can't be tracked. The device needs to be powered on and connected to an Internet connection to be trackable.

  • How can we detect a virus on our mac?, How can we detect a virus on our mac?

    We think we may have a virus from the USPS spam email.  How can we detect a virus on our computer?

    What makes you think there is a "virus"?  Any symptoms...?
    There are other types of malware (such as trojans) that can affect Mac OS X, but no viruses.  A trojan would have to trick you into installing something (the malware) by making you think it is something else.  You would be notified (by the system) that you are running a downloaded application for the first time, AND if something will be done to update your current system, you will be asked to authenticate (with your admin user name and password).  If something like that comes up when you don't expect it, you should be suspicious (and NOT authenticate).  Just opening an email won't do anything, even if it's an email that may affects Windows PCs.
    This free utility can scan your Mac for malware.

    Apparently, there is a version on the Mac App Store.

    Hi,
    How can I detect the windows version from Forms 6i?
    I was used get_application_property(operating_system); But it only return MSWINDOWS, MSWINDOWS32, WIN32COMMON.
    Any function or way can return the exact windows version(98/ME/NT/XP)?

  • How can I merge 2 tracks into one track with iTunes 11?  I used to do it with iTunes/Advanced/Join Tracks, but iTunes 11 does not have an "Advanced" button.

    How can I merge 2 tracks into one track with iTunes 11?

    Thanks for your reply, Jim.  I imported a CD that I had burned previously with the 2 tracks of sound effects that I had downloaded from the internet (MP3 files), but I did not see an option to join the tracks when I imported the CD.  In the upper right corner there were three buttons: Options, CD Info, and Import CD.  When I click on Options, the drop-down menu has two choices: "Get Track Names"  and "Submit CD Track Names".   I cannot find an option to Join Tracks.  Help!

  • ITunes is telling me that my iP4 may be damaged and can't be activated, but I was using it when it turned itself off, so how can it be damaged?

    iTunes is telling me that my iP4 may be damaged and can't be activated, but I was using it when it turned itself off, so how can it be damaged? I even managed to download photo's from it whilst it was turned off, so there was clearly some functionality before I restored it. Is anyone aware of any problems with the Apple's servers currently?

    Things fail sometimes.
    Was it jailbroken or "unlocked"?
