How do I edit wav files on my mac air?

Hi Im new to the site and to mac. Can anyone help me edit a simple wav file on my mac air? I've found plenty of blogs which say I can use quick time app but when I open mine, there are no options to edit or do anything other than play and record. Confused!

Hi lyndafromkingston,
I see that you would like more information about editing files in QuickTime. Here is an article for you that can give you some steps to help you accomplish this:
Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201066
Editing content
QuickTime Player lets you easily edit content you've created or downloaded. You can trim, combine, and rearrange clips. When you're done, just save or export your finished video.
Trimming
To remove unwanted footage from your media:
Open the file in QuickTime Player.
Choose Edit > Trim. The trimming bar appears.
To select the portion of the recording you want to keep, drag the yellow trimming bar handles to the left and right as desired.
When you are satisfied with your selection area, click Trim. The unwanted footage outside the the yellow trimming bar is removed.
Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

How do I transfer photoshop files on my mac air to the larger mac pro?

How do I transfer Photoshop files from my Macbook air to the larger Mac Pro?

There are a number of ways, but the simplest is by USB thumb drive of sufficient capacity. The more elegant if both machines are on the same network is by switching file sharing on on the Mac Pro, and then logging into it from the Air. The Mac Pro drive will appear on the Air's desktop and allow you to simply drag the files over.
For sharing, you will need an account on the Mac Pro, or the ID and password of an account already on the machine.
File sharing basics are outlines in the support document at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1549?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

How to edit wav files

I've been using SoundTrack Pro 3 to edit WAV files, but I've now bought a sound recorder that creates 24bit 192kHz files. These are too big for SoundTrack, so I thought that Logic Pro would do the trick. So far I've had no success in trying to combine two files that are part of the same recording; the first segment is 3.9Gb and the second 4.27Gb.
Can Logic Pro do this this, or will I need to ask for a refund and find some alternative software?
Thanks
Nick

Why 192 KHz? Do you have a compelling reason to use this absurdly high sampling frequency? That is, are you recording bats, or dogwhistles? If not, I'd advise you to convert the files to 24/48 - that'll do for almost all situations. If you really, rea-heally want a high sampling frequency for (very subtle) quality difference (imperceptable but for (maybe) some of the best trained sensitive ears), you could go with 24/96. But again, 24/48 (or 24/44.1) will do. The 24 is much more important (significant diffence with 16)...

How to play a wave file through the DAQ board?

Hi there,
we want to play a wave file that is saved on the harddrive via the DAQ board. Means we want to connect a amp to the analog output of the DAQ to amplify the sound and play it through a speaker.
We couldn't find any VI that does that. Can anybody tell us how to play a wave file, or perhaps even send us a VI that can do that?
Thanks a lot for your help
Martin - Physical Optics Corporation

Hi Martin,
The only example that I could find on how to do this was using our
older Traditional DAQ drivers version 6.9.3. If you're using Traditional
DAQ drivers, the vi can be found here.
The example reads a 8-bit mono .wav file (an example .wav file is included in the .zip file) and writes it to the analog out of your DAQ card. I've updated the
example to work with our newer DAQmx drivers and attached it here.
I hope this helps,
Paul C.

How can I edit the file name of the home page?

How can I edit the file name of the home page?
Gr Ammani

I have a similar issue with regards to the filename...
When I navigate to my website, it doesnt work unless I actually type the filename at the end of it. Example: type in "www.whitelion.com" (this is my real domain name) and it doesnt work. When I type in "www.whitelion.com/index.html" then it works.
This is obviously inconvenient because my clients will never know to add the filename to the end of the site.
Is there any setting or way to get the page to appear by just typing the original domain name without adding the extension?
Thanks,
Emelia

How do I edit the file where sites which I have typed in on the command line are stored? These are sites which I no onger use.

At times I type in a site name on the command line which I want to visit. This goes into a file which is accessed by highlighting the triangle on the right side of command line. This file contains previous sites which were accessed in the past. How do I edit this file and and remove previous site URLs?

Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop down list:
#Click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop down list
#Highlight an entry in the drop down list
#Press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.

How can i edit psd files in PS touch or which software/app i need for androiud tablet (newest tablet)

how can i edit psd files in PS touch or which software/app i need for androiud tablet (newest tablet) @samsung

You can import PSD files into Photoshop Touch but the PSD file will be flattened. (The original, of course, will remain untouched; PS Touch just copies it upon import.) I imagine this was done as a failsafe measure since PS Touch has no support for masks or adjustment layers (not to mention that PS Touch only has support for about 12 layers).

How do i edit move file in pre elements

I shot in a canon 60d the footage is not supported in pre elements ,how do i edit move file in pre elements

issac
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
When you write "move" file, do you mean "movie" file?
Do you have QuickTime installed on your computer along with Premiere Elements? If not, please do so.
Generalizing because you did not give all the details, I would say that the Canon 60D AVCHD.mov file should be supported by
Premiere Elements as long as you have QuickTime installed on the same computer with Premiere Elements.
Please review and consider and supply more details.
We will be watching for the details.
Thank you.

How do i edit the file i just converted

How do i edit a file i just converted

Hi christiandavidwood,
Did you convert a file to or from PDF? If you want to edit a PDF file, you'll need to use Acrobat. If you converted a PDF to Word, and are unable to edit it, please try triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit.
If you're still running into trouble, please let us know what type of file you're working with, and what problems you're experiencing.
Best,
Sara

How do I edit Raw files from a Canon 5D using Elements 9?

How do I edit Raw files from a Canon 5D mark 111 using Elements 9?

The 5D mk III is supported in PSE 10 with ACR 6.7 update.
You could download and install the latest DNG converter and use that to convert the CR2 files to DNG files (still RAW format). Then you can edit the DNG files using PSE 9.

How can i edit pdf files ?

how can i edit pdf files ?

What kind of "editing" operations do you have in mind?
You can add/delete/change annotations (such as Sticky Notes or Highlight/Strikeout/Underline text markups) or fill out forms in Adobe Reader. Some people (mistakenly) call it "editing". But, strictly speaking, it is not.
Because Adobe Reader is a PDF viewer, you are not able to edit the content of PDF documents. For example, you cannot
add/edit images or text
insert/delete/extract pages
convert PDF from/to other formats
You need a PDF editor such as Adobe Acrobat Pro or Standard, which is not a free product.

Hi sir im using fcp 7 for video editing in i mac, how can i edit mts files in fcp 7 without log n transfer, is their solution for fcp 7?

>No, you are not right.
Going to question the biggest contributor to this forum? (Yes, my ego is talking). OK then...
>Install the QT-Plugin, restart your Mac and you will be able to import and use .mts files in FCP 7.
Sure...yes, that makes it POSSIBLE to read the files natively in FCP...if they come from a Panasonic camera. BUT...just try working with those files. Right away the system won't be nearly as responsive as it would if they were ProRes. First...there are no sequence settings for that format...so you'll have to use ProRes and have a green render bar. BUT, that's no big deal. The big deal is trying to work with the AVCHD format, which is VERY processor intensive...inside an application that doesn't like to work with much outside of the FCP editing codecs.
Is it possible? Sure? Will it work well...will you be as zippy and error free as if you converted to ProRes? Not by a long shot. OH, but don't just take my word for it. Go ahead...try it and see. No skin off my nose...no waste of my time. See how well this works.
I'm just here to relate real world working solutions to issues. And yes, I did try that plugin, and boy, was editing a pain.

How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

Yes you can definitely do this. You'll need an app on the iPad that handles PDF viewing and editing. There are many around - two of the best I've seen are GoodReader and PDF Expert.
In iTunes when you iPad is connected to your PC, go to the Apps tab and scroll down and you'll see the File Sharing section. You can drag files to there to share them to your iPad.
You could also look at online file sync services like PDF to ePub Maker if you prefer not to have to connect your iPad to a PC
