How can I import a finale file into GB 08?

I have exported my Finale Printmusic audio file to iTunes. I think I need to convert it to another format. How do I do that? How can I drag it into Garage Band? I am VERY new at this and need detailed instructions. I keep reading, "Convert it and drop it into the timeline..." How?
Thank you!

In iTunes, select your audio file and press Apple-R - that will show you in the Finder where your file resides. Drag it over into GB's timeline.
An alternative would be to export a midi file from Finale and drag that into GB - that way you'll have the single tracks as software instrument tracks, you can assign instrument to them etc. But of course I don't know what you want to do.

  • How can I import a pdf file into numbers so it will open with a click

    How can I import a pdf file into a spreadsheet so that it will open with a click?

    You can link to a webpage or an email in Numbers-- that's it.
    The best way I found to do this is to enable websharing on your machine (see this article if you are running 10.8: http://lowendmac.com/crews/12lc/web-sharing-mountain-lion.html)
    You can then place your pdf files in the folder /Users/<your user name>/Sites/<somefolder>
    Then link to this using the url  "<your machine name>.local/~<your user name>/<somefolder>/<pdf Name>
    My machines name is "Proton" (you can get this from the System Preferences > Sharing pane)
    My user name is "wayne"
    so I stored a pdf file (DM00027543.pdf) in the folder "/User/wayne/Sites/PDFTest"
    and stored the URL "http://proton.local/~wayne/PDFTest/DM00027543.pdf" in the "URL" field of the Hyperlink inspector

  • How can I import a .AVI file into my project?

    I want to import a .AVI file into my video project but Final Cut Pro will not import it. Final Cut says the file is not recognized but it plays with Quicktime.

    DJ OZA,
    Do you get the warning "Media files are not optimized for FCP. Either recapture the media or use Media Manager to crate new copies of the files to improve performance for multi-stream playback."?
    What does this mean?
    I can import and edit the files no problem either, except for that waring, which concerns me.
    It means you will not be able to use the multiclip feature with these files because your Macintosh is working very hard to decode them on the fly. More than one stream will choke your machine.
    Your AVIs are visible in FCP because you happen to have acquired an AVI file that uses a codec you have available on your machine.
    AVI isn't even supported by Microsoft; it's been a totally concatenated delivery wrapper for more than a decade. It only survives because of entrenchment.
    Use Get INfo on one of your AVI clips, figure out what codec was used, use Google to find out what you can about the codec, and decide how you want to proceed. You want to determine what your output is going to be and work backwards from that decision. For instance, if you're going to distribute a standard MPEG2 DVD, you want to edit using conventional DV. Transcode you AVI files to DV using Compressor.
    Your easiest solution will be to edit on a PC that does handles the AVI natively or to contact whoever gae you the files and demand they provide you with clips you can edit on a Macintosh.

  • How can I import .doc word files into Pages from Word 2008 for Mac?

    I find that if I try to insert a .doc document from the earlier version of Word for the Mac, it works fine, but if I try to insert a doc which has been saved in "compatibility mode" as a .doc in Word 2008, Pages doesn't recognise it. I didn't even know there was any difference in these two kinds of .doc
    Does anyone know a workaround?

    I can open them as I go using an intermediate app (Word for choice as presumably it preserves more of the formatting than TextEdit), then I can just copy and paste the text into my Pages doc. In my particular case this is tolerable, but I have a friend who I assist sometimes who I know has a lot of these docs and so I wanted to find a solution for him before he asked me!
    It just seems quite different from what Apple appear to be offering... I started this thread really to see if anyone knew the cause of this anomaly, which seems to be a fairly small bug in Pages. Anyway I think I will not get any joy trying to understand the difference between the two kinds of .doc documents (in OS9 I would have guessed it was the 8-character file signature that differed, but I don't think this works in OSX) so I will stop wasting bandwidth and set this to "answered".

  • HELP - How can I import Nikon .nef files into Lightroom?

    I installed Lightroom 5 on a Mac and tried importing (copy as DNG) .net files from an SD card I used with my Nikon D750 (LR 5 is supposed to support the D750).  LR couldn't display a preview or import that file type so I used the latest Adobe DNG converter (version 9) to convert the .nef pics on the SD card.  LR then recognized the images but STILL WOULD NOT IMPORT them.  I get an error message saying the images could not be "read."  I've tried 2 different SD cards.  !Any suggestions?  Thanks.
    I even tried uninstalling Lightroom 5 and installing a trial of Lightroom CC.  I tried importing .dng files that were converted from Nikon .net files with the Adobe DNG converter.  I received the error message in the screen shot below.

    This error message means you have to set the Destination directory to have WRITE permission.
    So, determine what directory is specified in the Import dialog box on the right in the Destination section. Then go to your operating system, find this exact directory, and then change the directory to have WRITE permission.

  • Re user tip: How can I import a homemade DVD into iMovie for editing? - I've followed instructions so far so good, until I get to "You can then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your video codec. "  How do I do that?

    Re AppleMan 1958 excellent user tip: How can I import a homemade DVD into iMovie for editing? -
    I've followed instructions with success until  "You can then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your video codec. "  How do I do that?
    I installed MGEG Streamclip 193b8 and used their utility to install quicktimempeg2 and got a message stating it was successfully installed.  (I'm on latest Maverick 10.9.2 on iMac)  Then I dragged the VIDEO_TS file from my home DVD into the streamclip app.  It asked which of 4 files to use, and I selected the first one.  Streamclip played the video with the sound.  so far so good. but now I cannot figure how to use quicktime player 10.3 to export this vob file out of streamclip.

    Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion.  I'm exporting the first section now.  I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie.  I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame?  If it can, what size should I select when I export?

  • How do I import an MKV file into Premiere Pro CS6?

    How do I import an MKV file into Premiere Pro CS6?

    Premiere Pro CS6 doesn't support MKV formats. To import MKV to Premiere Pro CS6, a recommended solution is to convert MKV to AVI.
    I've been reading so many different forums on how to convert MKV to AVI. Finally, I summarised three solutions:
    First one: HandBrake . This tool is a free and open-source multi-threaded transcoding app. It supports nearly any videos including MKV format and has Mac version and Windows version.
    Cons:
    1. HandBrake is too professional to handle for most people;
    2. It doesn't support MOV as output format.
    Second one: there are many third party software which supports converting MKV to AVI. I just test one of them. It's professional yet easy to use and the service is excellent. And there is a step by step guide about how to use this tool .
    Cons:
    1. Most of them are not free.
    Third one: Online-Converter . This kind of converter does a great job on file conversion.
    Cons:
    1. Like most online converters, the free version of this tool only allows you to convert videos smaller than 100MB. It's too small for video conversion;
    2.Your MKV video should be upload to the internet to be converted. This means the risk of pravite information leak is possible.

  • How do i import director 7 files into current premiere pro

    how do i import director 7 files into current premiere pro
    I have a project created in Macromedia Director 7. I was told by sales that this would import into Premere Pro.
    However I have no Idea how! Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
    But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
    I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
    Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
    You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
    Kindly inform us if it works.
    Thank you all.
    Cheers.

  • How can I turn garage band files into mp3s?

    On my older Macbook i have always been able to easily turn my .band files into mp3s under the Advanced heading in itunes, but with my Macbook Pro, that is not an option. The option has become "Create AAC version". How can I turn my .band files into mp3s so that I can load them onto my web page and my students can pick them up as mp3s and put them on their devices?

    The option has become "Create AAC version".
    Your iTunes importing preferences are currently set to AAC. If you change your Importing preferences to mp3, the option should then become "Create mp3 version". See the following document for some more details:
