How can I trim time off the beginnings and ends of songs in iTunes?

I have some old recordings that I was able to put into iTunes, but some of them have dead air at the beginning and the end. Is there a way to trim that time off? Thanks

Well, I easily made the track with which I had this problem into an AIFF file by going to control click and "Create AIFF version." It changed the play time just as I wanted, but I can't seem to convert it back to MP3! The manual says to change Import Settings--I did--but now even when I change from AIFF to MP3 the next time I open the settings it still says AIFF! Help! I want my settings for MP3! Also, there doesn't seem an easy control click way to change the AIFF file to MP3 as there was to change the MP3 file to AIFF--so now I have two of them--an MP3 file the wrong length, and and AIFF file the right length--when what I want is an MP3 file the right length!

  • How can I put asterisk in the beginning and end of a search parameter..?

    Hi!
         I'm developing a program for a user where he wants a search parameter for the description about some purchase orders....
    The problem is if the user want to make a search for any word he need to put asterisk in the beginning and end of the word because if the user don't put the asterisk the search will not find anything because the program don't know if the word is in the beginning of the description or in the end or in the middle...
    How can I put one asterisk in the beginning and end of the search topic entered by the user internally in the program..? I was thinking using the concatenate function but for this will not work because the program think that the asterisk is part of the word and not..
    The search parameter of the Description is in range.. (Select-Options).
    Thanks for your help!!

    Thanks keshav!
    OK... and if I concatenate the asterisk latter I can make this search?
    In the code desc_search is the select_option that I tell u. I use the DESCRIBE to see first if it is not initial... if desc_search have an entry then access the DELETE to remove all the records that are diferent from desc_search.. This desc_search will have the word with the asterisk... and the question is if it works if I use the concatenate before this... anyway I will try but I think that if I use the concatenate the program confuse and take the asterisk as part of the word..
    DESCRIBE TABLE desc_search LINES desc_count.
      IF desc_count IS NOT INITIAL.
        DELETE core_table WHERE desc NOT IN desc_search.
      ENDIF.
    Let u know if works!!
    Thanks!

  • How can I get music off the ipod and into my library?

    I can't get the music off my ipod into my library... arg why won't it let me?

    You can't sync or drag your non iTMS music back directly from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. As iTunes 7 is just out some of these may not work with it yet though I haven't experienced any problems with the Mac software I use.

    When starting up Firefox 4 I get an error message. After clicking OK it nevertheless runs. How can I get rid off the error message?
    The error message is: what happened: Type Error: Components. classes ['@mozilla.org/extensions/manager;1'] is undefined.
    It appears all the time already from the beginning after installing Firefox 4.

    Thanks a lot. The Ask toolbar created this problem. Another problem is: When searching on the web via Google, normally it is possible to type a few letters and then look what appears and then click on the wanted word(s). A number of word(s) ineed do appear, however it is not possible to select any of them as ws possible as mentioned in olders versions.

  • I have a G4 Quicksilver that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new iMac?

    I have a G4 Quicksilver 2001 that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new late 2013 iMac?

    Also, how do I boot the G4 into FireWire Target Disk mode?
    First, the G4 must be able to start to use FWTDM. If it can start, hold the t key at boot until you get a "screensaver pattern" that looks like this:
    If the G4 is attached via a FireWire cable to a newer Mac with a FireWire port, the G4's hard drive will appear on the other Mac's desktop just as if it were any external drive. A USB cable won't work for FWTDM.
    Just wondering if the drive in my G4, which I believe may be an ATA drive will also work in an enclosure for a SATA drive?
    No. ATA (actually "PATA" or "IDE") and SATA are different interfaces. PATA external enclosures are now very hard to find. You best and least expensive option is the adaptor that BDAqua linked. One of its connectors is for PATA drives.

    Hi Beth, welcome to the discussions!
    Might be a good idea to also post over in the iPhoto forum if you haven't tried this yet as this is a common topic on their boards.
    You may be able to get your iPhoto library back by rebuilding it. I've done it, but's it's been a long time, so don't want to mislead you on anything. The guys over in the iPhoto forum are real experts and should have some fixes for you.

  • Since 2012 I have Photoshop Elements always worked without any problem, however now the language is suddenly German how can this be changed, removed the program and re-installed, not working. Program is downloaded and updated via the apple app store?

    I've done some research on the SQLite database. Whenever Aperture hangs up (like during auto-stack or opening the filter hud) there are thousands of SQLite queries happening. These SQLite queries cause massive file I/O because the database is stored on the disk as 1kb pages. However, the OS is caching the database file; mine's only 12MB. I'm trying to track down some performance numbers for SQLite on osx but having trouble.
    It's starting to look like most of the speed problems are in the libraries that Aperture uses instead of the actual Aperture code. Of course, that doesn't completely let the developers off the hook since they choose to use them in the first place.
    Oh, and if anyone is curious, the database is completely open to queries using the command line sqlite3 tool. Here's the language reference http://www.sqlite.org/lang.html
    Hmm, just found this. Looks like someone else has been playing around in the db http://www.majid.info/mylos/stories/2005/12/01/apertureInternals.html

    Pretty much. I don't understand why you need to worry about MobileMe, though. I'd guess the vast majority of us with iDevices don't have MobileMe accounts at all. That's pretty much why it failed.

  • How can i do to see the master and text values of the Key figure 0UNIT

    Hi gurus,
    How can i do to see the master and text values of the Key figure 0UNIT, please step by step, i m in the key figure 0UNIT but i want to see if the UNIT  for example BX = BOX, something like this is that i want to check,  thanks!

    If you look at the unit tables, you will see the values and texts.  It's in SPRO, not in RSA1.  My access is limited on my system here, but the documentation says to go to t-code CUNI.  I believe in that tcode you can look at all of the unit equivalencies and what each unit's text is ..... like an ea means each; KG = Kilogram; etc...
    I am on an 3.x system, so in SPRO I go to BW CIG=>General Settings=>Check units of measurement.
