How do I navigate a long song quickly?...markers?

Hey there...I'm new to logic express. Just trying to find ways to work quickly.
I understand that logic pro has markers but xpress doesnt...I assume they are used to set up sections for quick navigation.
Can someone tell me the best way to navigate a long composition in logic express?
Is there some way to create sections like intro.verse1.chorus1 and jump quickly from one to the other.
I find it strange that Logic only has 2 sets of locators. It would make sense to me to have as many sets of locators as I want to create and simply have a key command to to jump to any particular set I choose.
Any help would be appreciated.

The original LE 7 didn't have marker capability IIRC.
logic express 7.1.1 does have markers, and you can name the markers. You can shrink the width of the tracks screen to get a comprehensive view of your piece and click to the marker you want quickly.
If you're on 7.2, I can't address it because I don't have my copy yet. Hopefully they didn't remove the markers again....

  • How do I divide a long song file?

    I have two sound files in my iTunes library which are each about 2 hours in length. If I want to burn them onto an audio CD they obviously are too large for one disc. If I attempt to burn them onto a CD in normal CD audio format, will the beginning of the file (I would guess the first 80 minutes) be burned onto the first disc and then will the remainder (about 40 minutes) be burned onto a second disc which I will be prompted to place into the drive or do I have to split the files myself before attempting any burning? How do I divide these lengthy files if that is what I will have to do?

    Thanks NikkiG. The playlist will contain only one track - a 2 hour operetta with no breaks i.e a single 2 hour track. In other words, it will be a playlist containing only one file (song). I assume from your comments that this one file will be split automatically onto two discs when I burn unlike a more normal situation in which a playlist contains a number of items (songs) some of which are burned onto the first disc until it is full and the remainder onto a second disc.

  • How can I use a downloaded song as an alarm on my timer? Not a ringtone, a song. It is only 30 sec. long.

    How can I use a downloaded song as an alarm on my timer? Not a ringtone, a song. It is only 30 sec. long.

    This is not particularly helpful. I've looked on 3 websites and none of them match my configuration of iTunes. I've gotten as far as creating an AAC file and that is it. Can't find the .m4s designation to change it.

  • Itunes match  how do you to select multiple songs or do you click each one

    In ITunes match  how do you to select multiple songs to download to pc or do you have to click each one.

    First make sure you have the current version of iTunes, which is actually 10.5.1.  I had to manually download it from apples website, for some reason, it wouldnt auto-update.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Once that is complete, go to the iTunes store. In the Quick Links secion to the right, you should see iTunes Match. This will prompt you to activate your subscription to iTunes match.  After that it should ask you to add your computer and once youve done that, it should begin the process of scanning your library and adding it to the cloud
    Alternatively, once you activate your subscription, you can also go to the Store dropdown menu in iTunes and select Turn On iTunes Match.

  • How can I get my itunes songs to show up on my apple tv2 from my ipad?

    I just bought apple tv and an ipad.  I set up home sharing.  When I am using apple tv, I can see my itunes songs/playlists on my tv as long as my HP laptop is on.  But if I have my laptop off, and my ipad2 on, i cannot see my songs on my tv.  I have to use my ipad 2 in order to navigate through the songs.  Any ideas? 
    Also as a side question, It seems that the picture quality on my ipad 2 is not very good.  Meaning, I took a picure with a professional camera and saved it to my ipad.  Then I used it for my background on my ipad but it is very grainy.  Is this normal?
    Thanks

    Regarding your first question. That is the correct behaviour. Apple TV can only see and play media that is being shared by a compurter running iTunes. It will not see the media on your iPad. You can however use Airplay to play the media on your iPad on your Apple TV. If you download and install the Apple Remote app on to your iPad you can use that to remote control your iTunes library playback on your computer or Apple TV.
    Regarding your second question. Try creating a version of the image that is the same native resolution as the iPad's screen which is 1024 x 768 pixels. Also, save it as a JPEG or PNG file for best results.

  • I downloaded a song from i-tunes.  It plays on my computer, but won't play on my i-phone.  Any suggestions on how to fix this? Or how can I re-download the song without getting charged a second time.  I could not find an option to "report a problem".

    I could not find an option to "report a problem".
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • My new I5 uploaded doubleded all the songs from my library! Please, can somebody help me showing how can I delete just the songs that was doubled?

    Hi there everybody,
    My new Iphone 5 uploaded doubleded all the songs from my library! Please, can somebody help me showing how can I delete just the songs that was doubled?
    Some help will be greatly appreciate.
    Thanks much!

    When you say "account," do you mean your iTunes library, because your iTunes library is what is on your computer?  Your iTunes library does not have an email address.  An account that is related to iTunes is your Apple ID (which is an email address) and you use it as your user name to sign in to the iTunes Store, to make purchases.  Changing your Apple ID will not make songs disappear from your computer's iTunes library.
    If you had an Apple ID and used it to make song purchases from the iTunes Store, and then started using a different Apple ID, you should be able to re-download the songs purchased with the old Apple ID.  In iTunes, sign in to the iTunes Store using your OLD Apple ID (and password).  That may not be your current email address, but Apple uses it as your user name, so it does not matter.
    On the iTunes Store Home screen, click on Purchased under QUICK LINKS.  This takes you do the Purchased screen, where you can re-download previous song purchases (for that Apple ID) at no cost. 
    NOTE:  If those song purchases are from more than a few years ago, you may also need to authorize your computer to play (and sync) songs for your old Apple ID. 
    For songs that were not purchased from the iTunes Store, if they are also gone, you cannot get them back unless you have a backup (or they are still loaded on your old iPod).
    If that's not what you mean by "changed the email address on my account," please post back with more details.

  • Why has iTunes seperated a album which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

    Why has iTunes seperated a album into indevidual songs, which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

    Steve MacGuire a.k.a. turingtest2 - iTunes & iPod Hints & Tips - Grouping Tracks Into Albums - http://www.samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp (older post on Apple Discussions http://discussions.apple.com/message/9910895)
    Quick answer:  Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
    If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields.  If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.

    There is a backup plan after doing the Restore.  Read this.

  • How can I create a long employment form without making the form widget drag?

    How can I create a long employment form without making the form widget drag?

    Sorry Sachin, I mean that I created a simple form on the page from the widget and started adding fields to it. The more fields I add the slower the delay becomes in creating a new field. Even when I try to select and drag or move an item, there's a huge delay and sometimes the program feezes,  loose what i've done and have ot restart.
    I'm doing an enployment form that has more than 20 fields, at least, and I need to be able to build the fields in separate categories, like Education, Past Employment, etc... quickly without delay issues.
    I can probably send you a snap shot of what I'm talking about if I cna post it or attach it here..?

  • How come some of my itunes songs have a "check mark" and ones that do not say the file cannot be found.

    How come some of my ITunes songs have a check mark next to them and the songs that do not have it, I receive a error message " the file could not be found"  The songs are on my Ipod and Ipad2.  Is my itunes library screwed up?  Can someone tell me how to clean up my library?

    This 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.

  • Recently downloaded a whole cd on itunes. However, as it was downloading one of the songs was interrupted and didn't fully download. How do i get the whole song without having to pay again?

    I recently downloaded a whole cd on itunes. However, as it was downloading one of the songs was interrupted and didn't fully download. How do i get the whole song without having to pay again?

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music then you will need to contact iTunes Support - try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.
