How can I restart the conversion process?

When I installed I-tunes the program started converting my WMA files to the AAC format. I let it run all day but at the end of the day I had to shut down the computer, so I stopped the process figuring it would restart when I restarted the program the next day. It does not do that. The only way I can find to do the conversion is one album at a time. Is there a way to restart the automatic conversion process?
Compaq Presario v5000   Windows XP  

I don't know of an automated way to do it, but it is easy enough to do it yourself in one large batch. Note I use a Mac version of iTunes and still use iTunes6, but the following should be more or less the same anyway.
Right click the headings in your library and you will get a pop up of all the different headings. Turn on "Type" by checking it. Type is a column showing the encoding method (e.g. AAC, MP3, AIFF, WAV, etc.). Now you can click on this heading to sort your library by encoded Type. So now all the WAV files should be grouped together. You can now easily select the entire batch of WAV files, right click, and pick "Convert to xxx" where xxx is the encoder type you currently have set in your preferences for importing files. So if it is not in the format you want, go to preferences and change it. Once you pick the Convert function it will convert all the selected files to the new format.
Note that converting makes a copy leaving the original in place. So the other advantage of having the ability to sort and select a large number of files by Type is that you can also select all the WAV files to delete in one step after you have converted them all.

  • Every app install results in the "waiting" mode on my home screen.   How can I complete the install process?

    Every attempted app installation results in the "waiting" mode icon on my home screen.   How can I complete the install process?   What am I missing?

    Hi,
    1) Forget downloading the application from the device, and instead download it through iTunes and sync to transfer the application to your iPhone / iPad.
    2) Other way is: Go to Application Settings> Store and tap above the Apple ID to sign out. Restart your iPhone / iPad, go back to Settings> Store and sign. Tap the icon that was waiting to update the application.

  • How can I stop the install process?

    How can I stop the install process? It tells me my disk is damaged and to restart and repair, but when I restart it tries to install again....it's a never ending cycle. I'd rather keep the system I have than continue this mess.

    Hello Serau1s,
    It sounds like you are installing Mavericks, and are being prompted to restart and repair your hard drive, but when the computer restarts it goes back to the installation process. The following article should help you get that disk repaired by getting you to the recovery partition, named:
    Disk Utility 12.x: Repair a disk
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5836
    Print this help page so you can refer to it later. (You don’t have access to Disk Utility Help when you restart up your computer in the next step.)In the Disk Utility Help window, choose Print from the Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear).
    Choose Apple menu > Restart. Hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys as your computer restarts.When you see a white screen with an Apple logo in the middle, you can release the keys.
    Click Disk Utility, and then click Continue.
    In the list at the left, select the item you want to repair. (Be sure to select an item that’s indented to the right in the list, not an item at the far left.)
    Click First Aid.
    If Disk Utility tells you the disk is about to fail, back it up and replace it. You can’t repair it.
    Click Repair Disk.If Disk Utility reports that the disk appears to be OK or has been repaired, you’re done. Otherwise, you may need to do one of the following steps.
    If Disk Utility reports “overlapped extent allocation” errors, two or more files occupy the same space on your disk, and at least one of them is likely to be corrupted. Check each file in the list of affected files. If you can replace a file or recreate it, delete it. If it contains information you need, open it and examine its data to make sure it hasn’t been corrupted. (Most of the files in the list have aliases in a DamagedFiles folder at the top level of your disk.)
    If Disk Utility can’t repair your disk or it reports “The underlying task reported failure,” try to repair the disk or partition again. If that doesn’t work, back up as much of your data as possible, reformat the disk, reinstall Mac OS X, and then restore your backed-up data.If you continue to have problems with your disk, it may be physically damaged and need to be replaced.

  • My daughter has an iPod touch and is emailing a much older boy via text free app she downloaded. How can I see the conversations? Please help and thank you

    Please help me...My 12year old daughter has been talking to a older teenager through the text free app. How can I see the conversations? Also, there is a photo vault that is locked. What is that? Please someone help me. I don't know what else to do. I paid and downloaded a program that is supposed to tell you everything that's on the ipod but that was a joke. Thanks for your help.

    As long as you can't get a hold of the device, you can't do anything more than talking to your daughter about it.
    Erasing the device could also be an option to keep her from using apps you don't want her to have on her device.
    Try talking first

  • How can I perform the conversion of pdf files in Cyrillic script to Word files in Cyrillic script. The pdf file is too small for me to read right now. Julyan Watts

    How can I perform the conversion of .pdf files in Cyrillic script to Word files in Cyrillic script. The .pdf file is too small for me to read without a magnifying glass, and the document is more than one thousand pages.

    This answer was not helpful. First of all, I could not find "tech specs"
    anywhere on the Acrobat 11 homepage. And secondly I purchased this software
    for the specific purpose of converting .pdf files to Word. It was only
    after I had completed the purchase that I learnt that Acrobat does not
    permit the conversion of .pdf files in Cyrillic to Word files  in Cyrillic.
    I feel that Acrobat should have provided this crucial information before I
    allowed my credit card to be debited. That is why I  am now asking for my
    money back. But thanks for your attempt to solve my problem, even if it was
    not successful.

  • How can i view the Streams process through 10g OEM

    I have successfully configured OEM on Oracle 10.1.0.3
    My question is:
    How can i view the Streams processes and queues so that i could monitor its functionality.
    In 9i Java Console OEM I was able to monitor Streams using the <Distributed> tab but I don't find any such option in 10g. Please help.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Raj

    There's a message on the Database Administration page of EM10g.
    "TIP      Use the Enterprise Manager 10g Java Console to manage Streams, Advanced Replication, Advanced Queues, XML Database, Spatial and Workspace."
    At present there is no way through the EM10g Web Interface, and I understand the Java version which comes with 10g doesn't contain any 10g new features.
    So I am still using OEM 9.2 in addition to EM10g
    Thanks,

  • How can we stop the Collapse process in process chain.

    hi
    guys
             How can we stop the Collapse process in process chain.if any one know's plz tell me
    your regards
    suresh

    Hi,
    All the above post duly suggest a the methods we usually follow to cancel a collapse request i.e sm37 ---> Cancel without core,but these solution only applies if we are running collapse as a seperate variant in the process chain, in case its running as a part of change run the all above process will lead to the locking of the target.
    In that case if you could "lock the target" even before the collapse ran will result in the "Stopping of the collapse on the target automatically" .
    As far as figuring out the exat job of the collapse, you can directly get the job details in the "display message' , context menu option of the "Collapse variant" in the chain, clicking on the batch monitor and then clicking on the job to get its detail,then going to the specific "Application server " via SM51 and cacelling the job.
    Do check wearther the target is unlocked or not in sm12 if not then choose the object in se03 and select "Unlock".
    Hope it will serve yoour purpose
    Thax & Regards

    Hey there susnil,
    It sounds like you have an image on the screen showing to connect the device to your computer with the usb cord but iTunes and the computer are not recognizing the iPhone. According to the following article you should choose one of these articles to help that depedning on your operating system:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

    If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.

    but after the R/3  server was up .. the  remaing messages are processed normally.. except the   those messages are failured in that particular time server was down..

    How can we restrt the  messages  from SXMB_MONI..
    Regards
    jain

    Hi Jain,
    You cant restart the synchronous messages nor u can restart it............Hence the messages regarding synchronous issues cant be solvable.....The only way you have is to Resend the same data by again posting it in the Outbound Folder (Outbound side or sender side).........So once the sychrouns message failed means then it is unslovable ......So just follow the above mentioned way of resending the data by posting in the Out folder......................
    Reward with points if helpful

  • How can I change the default process of VK_ENTER in JTable

    Now I have met a requirment to process the "enter" key event in JTable. But it is found that the JTable has a default process on the ENTER key press, and it will select the next row. Even the worse, the default process is invoked before the KeyListener I registered.
    How can I remove that?
    I have tried the follow ways: 1.remove several keys, such as "selectNextRow","selectNextRowExtendSelection", from the actionMap,
    2.invoke processKeyBinding() in the constructor of my subclass of JTable.
    But both lead to failure.
    And I can't find the default process to the VK_ENTER in the java source code. I need help on this.
    BTW, does anyone know how to eliminate the focus traversal between cells. When I press left arrow or right arrow, the focus traverses in the scope of the selected row.

    thanks
    i also found solution for my poblem:
    i have this code:
    jMenuItem jMnItEdit;
    jMnItEdit.setAccelerator( KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0));
    also i had ActionListener bounded to this JMenuItem
    but Ialso had in form JTable and it always grabbed my VK_ENTER event and that menu item wasn't working at all
    but when i overrode that input map for JTable and set
    tableInputMap.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0, false), "none");
    everything started to work perfectly,
    thanks a lot
