How can I fast forward Audio Files without itunes?

So I like having the ability to preview audio files directly in the finder folders. I would like the ability to fast forward and rewind them but I cant seem to figure out how to do it without opening itunes first. Kind of annoying. I like how in windows you click play on an audio file and windows media player opens and you can ffwd and rewind. Any Jedi's out there know how I can do this? Thanks!

There are plenty of other audio players for Mac that are lighter weight than iTunes.
I use VLC, but here are some others:

  • How can I play an audio file without the whole screen going black?

    When I play the mp3 file on IE it opens in a small screen so I can still see the web page.
    On Firefox the whole screen is taken up with the sound file being played.
    Can this be changed?

    Is that file played in a tab in the current window or in a separate pop-up window?
    Are you allowing pop-up to modify the window size (dom.disable_window_move_resize = false)?

    You can try set the Boolean pref <b>media.windows-media-foundation.enabled</b> to <i>false</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the built-in HTML5 media player.

  • How can I access my project files without iTunes on an iPad 2 (non-jB)

    The other day while I was using the device, it just reset itself and decided I needed to activate it again. When I try to do this I get a message saying the "device is not part of the developer program..." and I have tried removing it's UDID from the provisioning portal at the dev website to no avail. All I really care about is retrieving my GB project files from the device, as I can most likely get over the fact that my other content might go missing. The device shows up on the left side-pane under devices in itunes, but when I click on the Apps tab, I cannot get the box that would normally be there allowing me to transfer files to and from the device for supported apps. I have searched tediously on this topic and frustratingly found no information that has helped. I also opened a case with apple and they gave me some BS suggested light reading (http://bit.ly/uHbxFs) that had nothing to do with the issue. Please Halp!

    you must run the official iOS5 version, no developer version which likely is a beta . Use itunes 10.5 , connect your device, let it make the backups and then hit the "restore" button in itunes. This will download and install the one and only supported OS for your device.
    Once you have this on it, you can install all apps, including garageband.

  • How can I use mp4 audio files from my iTunes library in an Elements 10 slide show?

    How can I use mp4 audio files from my iTunes library in an Elements 10 slide show?

    AAC is Advanced Audio Coding.  Basically it's a format that sounds better than MP3 but doesn't take up as much space as a lossless format (like you'd have on a CD).  More than likely you've had that encoding turned on when you ripped your music into itunes (it's the default encoder).  Therefore your LG phone won't play them.
    You need to turn off the AAC format by going to the iTunes menu, Preferences, General (at the top), then clicking the "Import Preferences" button.  Change the AAC Encoder to MP3 Encoder.  After that you'll have to make MP3 copies of your songs by right clicking them and selecting "Create MP3 Version."  You'll get a copy of the song that should transfer to your SD card and have MP3 encoding.  Hopefully your phone will play that.

  • When using imovie for Ipad, how can I fast forward a project to cut the length down?

    When using imovie for Ipad, how can I fast forward a project to cut the length down to fit under the 15 minutes required for Youtube? My current project is 23 minutes, and need to cut it down below 15 minutes. I was hoping to speed up the video. The content would actually be better viewed in at a faster speed anyhow.

    Jon,
    It sounds like you did, just as you should, Save_As and Delete everything that is unwanted. If you did the Deletion from the Timeline, there should be nothing from the old Project, that should be included. A DVD is Transcoded and burned from the Timeline. If the Assets are not there, they will not included in the DVD, even if you did not Delete anything from the Project Panel.
    Tell us about the Clips now on your Timeline. Also, can you check the Timeline, by hitting the \ (Backslash key), and looking near the end of the Timeline. Do you have any "orphans" out there? Check all Video Tracks, even if you have to scroll to see them all. Does the Duration of the Timeline (viewed in the Program Monitor) match what you think that it should? If not, then you most likely have orphans, that you missed Deleteing.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

    How can i copy the music files from itunes in mp3 format to my PC

    Dr. P,
    Song files are just files.  You can copy them the way you copy any other files, like photos or documents.
    If any of the files are not already in MP3 format, and you wish to create MP3 versions, then you can convert them using iTunes, by following this guide:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1550

    Can I import .cda audio file in iTunes on my Macbook Pro with OS X Yosemite

    iNads,
    .CDA files are simple index files, less than 1 kB in size, that do not contain any audio.  There is no reason to import them.
    If you have the physical CD and wish to rip it into iTunes, you can import it per this guide:  iTunes 12 for Mac: Import songs from CDs
