How can one copy/play a cd that seems to be protected

how can one copy/play a cd that seems to be protected. Is this always the case with compilation cd's? I cannot play, read or copy on my windows7 PC.

There are still many CDs around that are designed to make it difficult to rip, especially those from the Warner Brothers group.
Some that will not rip on a Windows machine will do OK on a Mac.  If you have access to a Mac try it there, and bring the resulting MP3s back to your Windows machine on a flash drive so you can add them to your iTunes library.

  • How can one copy or loop certain patterns in the balance curve?

    Hey everyone!
    I wondered if it is possible to copy certain positions of the curve for balance (the option under which you can pinpoint its exact level for each moment). Like when a track of a song (think Pink Floyd) pans back and forth from your left ear to the right and back - how can you do this in Garageband 11 without having to go through the whole song hand-selecting every inch of interear movement?
    Thank you to everyone who took the time to read through my question!
    Anybody have any answers?
    Yours

  • In TextEdit, how can one change scrolling behavior so that,

    e.g., with the insertion point at the bottom of the window, pressing the down arrow advances the text one line rather than jumping 1/2 the window?
    thx

    I'm not sure what you mean by "normal".
    When one presses the down arrow, one's eye follows the insert point down, one line at a time, because that is the location of interest. After it reaches the bottom of the page, pressing the down arrow causes the page to
    jump ½ of a page
    at which point, one's eye has to move back up that ½-of-a-page to get to the insertion point (which, yes, has moved only one line with respect to the logical text). That eye movement is disorienting and a time-waster as one searches for the insertion point.
    Moving a full window (or a page when displaying one full document page in the window) at a time is warranted at times (e.g., when skimming) and should be enabled at user-discretion by a shortcut. But that is not for "normal" reading, i.e., when one is reading each line. Jumping ½-of-a-page never was and is not a normal way of reading. It should not be the only way to move through a file.

  • How can I login to a site that is .htaccess password protected with java

    Forgive me if this is a dumb question. I am have never done this before and haven't been able to find out how to do this. I want to send some xml (passportRequest) to a server that is listening. The hard part is this server is password protected with htaccess. I have the username and password and I tried adding it to the url (ie https://user:password@server....) but not luck. I read somewhere that I can't do that anymore...is that right? I tried the code below but no luck there either. Any of you guys have any tutorials you could point me to or suggestions? Thanks!
    String urlStr = "https://www.myserver.com/pathto/requestlistener";
    URL url = new URL(urlStr);
    HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
    con.setRequestMethod("POST");
    con.setRequestProperty("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
    con.setRequestProperty("reqData", passportRequest);
    sun.misc.BASE64Encoder encoder = new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder();
    String encryptedPassword = encoder.encode((customerId+":"+password).getBytes());
    con.setRequestProperty("Authorization", encryptedPassword);

    con.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic " +
    encryptedPassword);should do the trick.AWESOME! I was so close. Thanks for the tip. Does
    "Basic" just tell the server what type of
    authentication to use? What are the other options
    available? Where can I learn more about this stuff?
    I figured it was something simple like that, but when
    no one responded I was beginning to wonder if it was
    possible. I didn't know why it would be (its setting
    headers and that shouldn't matter where you are doing
    it from, browser or code). Thanks again!All of this (including what you have to supply to log in from any client, Java or not) is in the information that the first link in my previous post displays. However - you have to read it.

  • How can I re-play the tutorials on my imac

    I am new to Apple and am enjoying the experience thus far. My only unanswered question is how can I re-play the tutorials that popped up the very first time I opened an application? i.e. The first time I opened "Keynote" a window opened that gave me the opportunity to see some video highlights, I chose not to watch thinking I would get to it later. However, now when I click on the "keynote" icon it takes me directly to the application - no video tutorials offered. I have found tutorials on-line but can I still get them on my computer?
    Thanks

    You might want to ask someone in the Keynote forum. It may be in one of Keynote's support documents in your Documents or Library folders, or it may be inside the package contents of the Keynote application itself. Since I don't have the most recent Keynote, I can't say I'd know.

    The only tutorial videos are online -- if you go to the Help menu and choose "Video Tutorials", that will take you to the appropriate section of the Apple site (and the "Welcome to Keynote" item will give you that window that popped up the first time you ran Keynote).
    If you want a basic overview of iWork (and a very nice demonstration of what Keynote can do), then the Help item "iWork Tour" is highly recommended.

  • How can I copy file/folders from and to hard drives? How can I have two or more windows of explorer so that I can drag and drop from one hard drive to another?

    Hi,
    I am a new customer (purchased last week) of MacBookPro (latest) and its my first ever Apple laptop.
    I am almost lost to find the operating tools.
    1. How can I copy files from hard drive to computer and vis-a-versa?
    2. Only can browse one but how can I have two or more browses at the same time like in MS windows?
    3. No right click works on track pad?
    4. Is there application/ program compatible to MS office? If so how much and how can I purchase?
    5. Is there AutoCAD program that is compatible to MS Window AutoCAD? and if yes how much and how can I purchase?
    I will very much appreciate if you could email me the with the solution/answers please.
    Regards,
    Khagendra Limbu

    1) For some reason this happens once in a while with FAT32 enabled external harddrives. I have no idea why this happens but it most easily solved by reformatting the drive. First make sure you've copied everything from the external drive to your internal harddrive. You've done this earlier so I assume you know how to do this.
    Now the reformatting part. Open Finder and go to Applications. Look for the folder called "Utilities". Click on it. In it you find a program called "Disk Utility". Click on it. Now look for the external drive. You probably see two entries for the disk. Click on the one that contains the name of the drive NOT the one that describes the disk (Like for example 320.07 GB Samsung S2 Portable Media).
    Now you see four tabs in the righthand part of the window. They're called "First Aid", "Erase", "RAID" and "Restore". Click on "Erase". This opens the tab with (amongst others) a dropdownbox (Format) and a textbox (Name) . In the dropdownbox select "Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Take note! This selection disables usage of the drive with Windows PC's. If your goal is to share the drive with Windows PC's select the MS-DOS FAT option.
    Enter a label for the drive in the textbox Name. Now click on the button "Erase". This will format the drive.
    Now when it's done you can copy back all the items you've copied to your internal harddrive earlier.
    2) Opening two windows like Explorer on Windows is opening two Finder windows on the Mac. Simply click on the background. In the menubar you items like 'Finder", "File", "Edit", "View", et cetera. Click on "File" and "New Finder Window". Do this two times. Alternatively you can click on the background and press CMD-N two times.
    3) You can right click on the trackpad. This however depends on if you've enabled the feature in System Preferences. In the topmenubar click on the Apple icon and select "System Preferences". Now look for Trackpad in Hardware. Click on it. You see three tabs with the names "Point & Click", "Scroll & Zoom" and "More Gestures". Select "Point & Click" and look for "Secondary Click'. Make sure it is checked and make sure it has written "Click or tap with two fingers" written beneath "Secondary Click". When you're done exit System Preferences. Now select the background and tap with two fingers on the trackpad. This should open the contextuel menu with options like "New Folder", "Get Info" et cetera.

  • How can i copy apps from one computer to another?

    how can i copy apps from one computer to another?

    You don't mention which operating system you have so it's difficult to provide an answer since the mac and Windows stores the files differently.
    The other thing you can do is just re-download the apps from the iTunes Store. Just login to the iTunes Store on the other computer using the same Apple ID. On the right-hand side of the iTunes Store page you will see a 'Purchased' link. Clicking on that will take you to a page that will list your past purchases which you can re-download to the new computer.

  • How can i copy files from one external hard disk to another using macbook pro with retina display

    How can i copy files from one external hard drive to another using macbook pro with retina display?

    That's odd - if you open Disk Utility (Applications->Utilities) and select the disk(s), how are they formatted? If you're only going to be used with your Mac, they should be formatted as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".

  • I have copied my CDs into iTunes  (currently running v11) to play on my iPod.  I have now bought a non Apple mp3 player to use when I am out running.  How can I copy the many tracks I want from iTunes onto the new player?

    I have copied my CDs into iTunes  (currently running v11) to play on my iPod.  I have now bought a non Apple mp3 player to use when I am out running.  How can I copy the many tracks I want from iTunes onto the new player?
    Thanks

    I tried Notpod but can't get it to work.  Part of the problem, I suspect, is that I can't create a folder on my player (a SanDisk Clip+).  I also can't do this in Windows Explorer.  Whilst I can see the Clip+ in Explorer, the option to create a new folder isn't there.
    The error mesag I get in Notpod is:
    "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application.  If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.  If you click Quit the application will close immediately.
    InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'SelctedIndex'. Parameter name: SelectedIndex"
    Then, when I plug the Clip+ into a USB port, iTunes thinks it is my iPad - which is because, I guess, Notpod hasn't worked.
    I can drag and drop files from the Music folder where my iTunes tracks are stored onto the Clip+ and they get converted but I'd rather synchronise a Playlist from iTunes if I can.
    Thanks anyone who can help

  • How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another?

    How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another, including text fonts, colours, borders, etc., so that, for example, I can reuse a formatted reconciliation table again in different parts of a sheet?

    Hi George,
    Wayne found the Spinning Beachball of Death, and you will find it too.
    Numbers is not good at handling large datasets. Might I suggest that you group your data into smaller sets (each month, perhaps?) and save each group in a separate Numbers document. Numbers will not link between documents, but you could have a summary Table within each document. Then comes the "clunky" bit of copying all those summary tables into a master document where you do the final processing of the data.

    Ian.

  • How can I copy the layer from one .PSD file to another .PSD file?

    Hi,
    Actually it is shape and mask on one layer which I want to use it on my Photoshop CS4 file. If I select all the layer and copy it to my file it just copies the shape but not the mask. How can I copy MASK to my file?
    Please do hlep.
    Actually I am trying to copy the following layer.

    I believe the fastest way would be to duplicate the layer and send it to the other document. Open both images. Click the document tab of the document with the shape layer. With the shape layer selected in the layers palette, right click where it says the shape layer name. Select "duplicate layer" from the context menu. In the dialog that comes up, select the document you want to copy that layer to in the destination box then press ok.
    Alternately, you can open both images then pull the document frame tabs down to open both images in your workspace. Grab the shape layer in the document's layers palette by left clicking it...keep the left button pressed (hand icon should be a grab icon). While left button is still pressed, drag the shape layer over the receiving document. To make the shape layer register in the same location, press the shift key and keep it pressed. Release left mouse button while the layer is over the receiving document. Release shift key after you have released the left mouse button.
    This tutorial has a good photo reference for what I mean when I say pull the image tabs down so both documents appear in the same workspace...also shows drag/drop:

    I am not exactly sure what you mean by "authorised", but I am experiencing a similar problem...or the same, in that Apple TV keeps telling me to enable home sharing in my MacBook Pro. It does not seem to recognize that home sharing is already enabled on my Laptop.
    Is home sharing and "authorised" one in the same? It used to work just fine before these recent Apple TV updates.
