How comes the audio files I download off a friends music page suddenly downloading as download.view and are unusable?

I have been downloading my friends music on madsonic using safari and it always work fine. Recently the downloads are showing as download.view and are inaccessible. Why?

Since the rights are forfeited by the person uploading the video, YouTube is public domain and is downloadable at will. Naturally, some of the content may be copyrighted material that the user has warranted as his/her own so the end responsibility is the downloader's and he/she may be liable if publishing the content. A note: even copyrighted material may be used by a non-profit without prejudice - but, think before you use... if it is used on a site where advertising has been sold to benefit the non-profit (or even a list of donating companies exists on the site), the content could be thought of as benefitting a for-profit agency and therefore would become an illegal use of the material.
There are several sources for public domain soundbites online and some of them filter the content, but most rely on users' honesty.
As stated in a previous reply, if you are unsure, contact the producing entity to either purchase rights or recieve permission to use.
For legal downloading of public domain .wav files it is a simple enough proposition to purchase a widely available appropriate program.

Why the same file is downloaded again and again?

The same file, from the same url is dowloaded many times to the same directory.
Is this some kind new technology or do you compete with Youtube in dowloaded data?

I see the same happening and the full video (?) gets loaded.<br />
If I disable WebM (media.webm.enabled -> false) then I get the Gecko media player plugin that displays the video after a short buffering.

How do I make the audio files on my site download?

Hi
In my site there are links to some audio files. When click the links in chrome or firefox, the audio files start playing straight away. In opera the files download. Internet explorer opens the files in windows media player. How can I make it so that when they are clicked they always download, instead of playing inside the browser?
The only answer that I can find, so far, is zip files. I am reluctant to use that method because zip files compress and compression can do funny things to files.
Can anyone suggest anything?
Thanks

I am reluctant to use that method because zip files compress and compression can do funny things to files.
Fear not. The zip compression is not a 'lossy' method, it's a simple statistical compression method (when three or more bytes are found adjacent in the file, they are replaced by two bytes, one indicating the repeating value, and the other indicating how many repeats), so the files will decompress exactly like they were before. A good example of a lossy compression would be when you create a jpg image.
Alternatively, you could force a download with a little server-side scripting. Google "force download". You would need some proficiency in server scripting to use this method, however.

I have been sampling new imported drum loops. And if I adjust region to song or time strecth it updates the audio file in the library. How to stop this? I lost the original setting to one loop. automatically doing it ??

This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

How to master audio file handling? Where is the logic of Logic?

1. How can I master where to save my logic project files including audio?
2. I want to save a project as a template WITHOUT the recorded track files. When I open the new template I dont want to have all old audio in my "media"browser inside Logic! How?
3. I have one old project with a lot of audio of which only a few are used, yet when I try the cleanup function only a few are erased. Why?
4. How to save a project so that ALL the files used are saved inside that project folder. In Protools and Cubase you can erase all material you dont use.
5. I want to have all my audio saved in ONE project folder but they end up scattered somewhere else, what to do?
I can never get used to the apple/logic sense of file structure. Crazy! Where is the logic of Logic? /Helpless to the logic of Logic 8

Hi
If I understand the problem correctly?

The possible issue concerns the start of the audio files.
I recorded the tracks down to a stereo file, a region, that appears to start in the arrange at the correct point. But when you record, Logic includes some recording before the start of the region, before the Anchor, correct?
This can depend on how you did the "record down to a stereo file".
If you routed tracks to bus channels, then recorded the bus to another track, Logic will include the count-in in the audio file. As you say, the region in the Arrange will be correctly "trimmed".
One solution would be to convert these bounced regions to new audio files (Audio Menu), another to use Bounce Region (or track) in Place.
Alternatively, use a manually placed "2 pop" 2 seconds before the start of each cue.

Nope, it's still says it's not compatible with my device. This is from the Google Play Store in my desktop web browser, as well as Google Play Store Android app. I tried clearing the Play Store cache as well but it did not help.

The basic answer is that Apple has not programmed the capture routine with this capability. As such, you can always send QT feedback requesting this feature be added as a future enhancement.

How do I stop breaks or stutters in the audio file from occurring while editing?

I am using Captivate 8 but I saw this same problem in Cap7. My narrator recorded the audio while recording the video. He did not record to each slide independently, but instead allowed the software to break the narration at mouse clicks. As the editor, I am cleaning up the audio/video and every time I try to edit the audio it causes a stutter (a small silent section) at some other point in the audio file.
For Example: The mouse click occurred in the middle of a word, I re-position this frame break, a small gap is created in the middle of a word someplace else in the audio.
Any editing, even something as simple as changing the volume of the project through the Audio>Edit>Project option, can cause one or more of these brief silences somewhere in the audio. I have tried inserting silence before re-positioning a frame break, but that doesn't solve the problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This is taking 10 times longer than it should to do some simple editing.
Thank you!!

In other blogs some mentioned a little tool that stops the video when u go to other pages but it doesn't on Android as the mentioned here

Playing audio file while Downloading

Hello all,
Can anyone give me an idea on how can I play audio file while downloading.
Thanks

Connect the external drive and then launch Disk Utility found in Applications/Utilities. Your external drive while show up in Disk Utility's side bar. It should be Mac OS Extended or OS Extended (Journaled).
If it isn't:
Then select it and click the 'Erase tab' at the top.
Select Mac OS Extended-Journaled formatting from the Volume Format menu.
Then click the oval Erase button at the lower right. Just remember-this will erase the drive!

2 Questions: Missing audio files...and How to delete audio files

I have two nagging issues associated with my podcast at iTunes.
First, audio files are missing from the podcast. Everytime I post m4a files to my podcast, they are added to an xml file, and to the podcast. The xml file is complete, but some files are not making the trip to the podcast.
Second, I have a need to delete some of the audio files which appear in my podcast. How do I do that?
Thanks!

As has been suggested you can encourage people to download QuickTime player by doing something like this...
http://www.mirroroftheuniverse.com/Songs.html
You can also present your songs like this...
http://roddymckay.com/Satellite/JukeBox.html
This is a SnoCap jukebox and you need an account to use it but you'll get the link to ESnips on the above page.
A 3 minute song has a file size of about 30 Mb in AIFF format. Converting it to MP3 reduces it to about 3.5 Mb and M4A to about 5.5 Mb.
iTunes will do these conversions for you and M4A is far superior to MP3 as far as sound quality is concerned.

The audio file can not be changed! - help

I really need help. I just installed Logic Express 8, and I tried to import a song in order to edit it (as a lead in music bed for a podcast). Every song I import in says I am unable to edit it - "The audio file can not be changed! Volume or file is locked."
How do I unlock the file/volume in order to edit t? This is the only reason why I purchased Logic and if I cannot do this I spent a lot of money for no reason. Please help.

OK, basics first..
if the audio was 'bought' from itunes or some other download, it could have some kind of 'digital rights management' (DRM) on it. So you won't be able to edit anything, it's protected. Nothing you can do there.
Also make sure it isn't already open in another application that might be 'holding on' to it.
However, it could be something simple to do with protections on the file itself.
Locate the music file you imported on your harddisk click on it once so it is highlighted, now press cmd-i, or select file menu and 'get info'.
There are some settings here where one can 'lock' a file. There is a check box under the 'general' section that needs to be unchecked, there is also a 'permissions' section at the bottom of the 'info' window of the file.
Make sure you have read and write permissions.

The audio file is not recognized by Logic. Can't import audio files?

Hi,
The audio files are on my desktop. Logic 9.1.1 will not recognize them and gives me this message when I try to drag and drop OR Import Audio File OR use Audio Bin.
As far as I know, I am using wave files (extension .wav). So what could be the problem. Here's a picture of how the files look on my desktop.
The regular silver and blue iTunes icons look like this when I Get Info:
The black iTunes icons look like this when I Get Info:
Importantly, the black iTunes (only 2 out of the 18 audio files) are the ones that actually import. Does it have something to do with the fact that it shows under "More Info > Audio Channels 1" vs. the silver and blue iTunes .wav files (which do NOT have this)?
Furthermore, here is the process I used to get the audio files in the first place. On my PC, I exported audio files from my Ableton Live project onto a thumbdrive. I copied the audio files from my thumbdrive to my Mac. Maybe this had something to do with it.
Also, as you can see, under Sharing and Permissions > there is only "read and write" for all names, so it's not a permissions thing.
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.
+Can you play them as Preview (select in Finder, hit spacebar)?+ No. The black iTunes icons play with no sound and the silver and blue iTunes icons do not even come up in Preview at all.
+Will iTunes play them?+ Only the black iTunes files (2 out of the 18). When I click on a silver and blue icon'd file, it will not even open in iTunes.
why on the desktop? it was just a temporary thing. I was not able to pull them into my Audio Bin. I tried what you suggested. I put the files in the Audio Files folder of my project. When I go to open them from within Logic by Import Audio File, they are visible but greyed out. I don't use the desktop except for testing stuff like you do.
+How was the thumb drive formatted? FAT32 or other DOS-format, or Mac OS Extended (HFS)?
+the extension is not where apps look to recognize an audio file format, it is the header data. Some audio programs can read RAW audio files, but more about that after your reply to this one.+ It is formatted MS-DOS (FAT 32).
(*I wrote all this stuff above while I was working and waiting for the PC to write to my thumbdrive again*******finally I got everything to show up.
I loaded the files again from the thumbdrive. This time they were all in the black iTunes format, and I put them directly in the Audio Files folder like you suggested. After some doing everything works fine. Weird.
Thanks!

I have 10.3.1, how come the CD's I burn won't play in my vehicle?

I have itunes 10.3.1, how come the CD's I burn won't play in my vehicle?

I have been having issues with edited tracks from Toast/CD Spin Doctor that I send to my iTunes library, so that I might burn them onto a CD at a later date.
For example, when I try to hear my 3:42 edited track of a tune I had just sent over from Spin Doctor to iTunes, instead of hearing 3:42 of the "edited track", I only hear the first 3:42 of the raw "unedited" track. In other words, if my raw Spin Doctor file had 20 seconds of silence before the track started, I would hear that first 20 seconds in my iTunes file instead of the edited file.
Personally, I think Apple needs to allow us Mac users to have a "download previous version" option when serious bugs like this appear on the updates. Seems they give Windows users links to older versions, but for us Mac users, they make it hard for us to easily find older versions. I feel like I'm being held hostage waiting for the next version, or patch.
And when I try to report the issue to Apple, when I go to the "What version of iTunes are you using?", they still don't have version 10.3 listed in their pulldown menus (as of 7/7/11).
If you want me to plunk down money for Lion, then you better get my iTunes back to where I could use it again.
Sorry for the rant, I've been in a major vinyl transfer-to-CD groove in the last month, and this just ruins my momentum. Apple has really disappointed me.
