How do I save markers to an MP3 file? Need help asap.

I add the markers to my wav file and save the wav file as my master. Then I save the wav file with the markers as an MP3 file. However, when I open up the MP3 file, there are no markers. I need the tracks to be on the MP3 file for digital downloads. how do I add markers on an MP3 file so I can either
use that file to have as a digital download and/or burn a CD. Either way I use the file, I need to have the markers on the MP3 file. I really need help with this. I am working on a project that is time sensitive. Anyone that can help me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

No.
I've reread portions of the manual and it's kind of coufusing, but I think I figured it out
The manual states in order to save markers, you have to save non-audio data with the file. It also states it saves this as XMP info in an mp3.
I don't think the markers are a datatype that get exported with XMP info, at least from what I can tell becuase I have been unable to save an mp3 with the markers.
But, let's sidestep that. Right now, this isn't your issue. Your issue is you want to preserve track markings so when people download this mp3, they can listen to it as "tracks" rather than a continious MP3. The problem is not all mp3 software supports it, in fact, everything that does has it bolted on. So only a small percentage of people downloading the mp3 will be able to actually use that function. foobar2000 and winamp users, yeah, they could deal with an mp3 using an embedded cue....if you embedded the cuesheet as it required. Windows Media/iTunes people...they have absolutely no support for playing a long mp3 as tracks.
so, to begin with...what you want to do, is "technically impossible". CUE is not supported by id3v2 and is therefore not offically supported. Don't get angry at me, I did not write the mp3 specifications. You'll likely find that even if you do find a solution googling "embed cuesheet mp3", the results won't work the way you want or be a method thats universal. Regardless of how you do this....audition is not going to embed markers when you save as mp3. You'd have to export the markers to a cue-sheet somehow (which I haven't figured out how to do in audition because it appears it doesn't) and use an external program to embed them...or distribute the cue file with the mp3. milage will vary, majority of users probably wouldn't be able to make use of it.
The OTHER alternative...which is probably less supported than embedding a cue sheet to an mp3, is you CAN maintain makers and have a layer-3 bitstream...but you have to save the file as a .wav using an ACM WAV and use a layer 3 codec. Technically, you're creating a wav, but since wav can work technically as a container format, the audio content is mpeg layer 3...but, again....since things like Media Player or iTunes or even Winamp don't pay attention to them as they're extra information in the WAV header, this still doesn't give you the track-split function you're looking for.
there have only been loose standards defined by developers and users for what you want to do. while there are "open" ways of doing it, it's never gained much support.
the only way you can guarntee you can distrubte track'd mp3's is to split thing in to seperate files to begin with.
sorry.

How do I save markers in an mp3?

I have the "save extra non-audio information" checked. It will save markers in a .wav, but not an mp3. How do I get it to save markers in an mp3?
I'm using Audition 2.0 build 5306.2 [Audition\2.0] on an hpe-447C w/Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Service Pack 1.
Thanks.

What? These are facts I'm talking about, not opinions. And I am simply agreeing with their argument about the purpose of the format.
As someone who voices long scripts and works almost exclusively with mp3, saving markers would allow for much easier editing when I don't have time to do it immediately after recording. I realize saving the file as a wav first is a work-around for this, but this is just one more step.
Well, you've got this completely wrong, I'm afraid. And that's not an opinion, either.
If you record in Audition, essentially you are recording the highest quality signal you can within the software - it's already in the wav format. When you save it as an MP3, you are throwing away detail that your mic picked up, you recorded, and that's already there. What's even worse is that then you are opening this MP3 for editing. This decodes your MP3 back to a wav file (only of significantly lower quality) because that's the internal format - you edit it and then re-encode it back to an MP3 again. You have now doubly compounded your original felony, and I bet it sounds dreadful - re-encoding is the ultimate no-no with compressed formats.
Your correct workflow is to record, mark the file and save it as a wav file with the additional metadata saved. This retains the quality of the recording. If you are worried about not having to re-record any of it, then make a copy of your original, and edit that copy. When you have finished doing this, you can make a distribution copy as an MP3 if you want - that's what it's intended for.
Are you using the wrong product? Probably not. Are you using it in a non-optimal way? Almost certainly. I've been recording speech and music for a living for well over 40 years, and I wouldn't dream of doing it the way you are.
Seems that adding the function of saving markers in mp3's wouldn't be that big of deal...but I'm not too smart in that area.
Clearly.

When I try to save on some websites I will try to save a pdf or mp3 file. Down below it will list the file and in the 'save as type' box it will not list as save as '.pdf or .mp3' but instead always says 'all files' which will not save it in a way it can

Why won't the 'save as type' section list .pdf or MP3 to save a PDF or MP3 file but instead always says 'save as type' -- 'all files "."'. How can I get rid of the 'all files'.?

Sorry, I have no idea what you are doing; can you give us some details?

How can I save a Photoshop Elements 12 file as HTML?

Sorry, not possible in PSE itself. You'd need to put your photo into the web creation software you use. If you are using an older version of PSE some versions created web albums/galleries which included an index.html page, but that's as much as PSE does. There's nothing like that in PSE 12 since Adobe wants you to use Revel for photo sharing now.

There are two ways:
1. Put the individual song files into a folder, and then Zip the folder. This creates a single .zip file. (Note however, that a .zip file is not playable in a normal player: it is just a "holder" for the song files.)
2. Use an audio editor such as Audacity to concatenate the individual song files into a single song file. This creates a single file can be played in a normal player such as iTunes.
Technique #2 is the one normally used to create a continuous mix.

How can I save a Flash or .swf file in AVI format without losing quality?

How can I save a Flash or .swf file in AVI (or another video) format without losing quality?

As long as you don't have code in your animation then just hit File->Export->Export Movie, then configure the options.
Here's an article on exporting sound, images and video. Just skip on down to exporting AVI and it explains the process. The codec is in the Video Compression section. When you click Settings for Video Compression, the codec is in the drop-down at the top. There's various kinds but to get lossless quality AVI you'll have to choose Uncompressed / None for full quality. Again, the file will be huge and you'll need to use another program (like Adobe Media Encoder) or Microsoft Windows Media Encoder, etc, depending on what format you intend to compress it ultimately.

Vera,
Use View > View Options, and set 'Sort By" to "Manual Order."
Then you will be able to drag-n-drop songs up and down the list.

How do I save markers?

Ok for the life of me I can't understand how am I supposed to save markers in STP?
I open an audio file then insert markers using "M" on my keyboard, I then click save and exit and when I come back the markers are gone? Is this a bad joke.
Can someone just please give me the short solution instead of me having to hack through the manual.
Thanks.

Are you trying to save the markers in an AIFF or WAV file, or are you saving the markers in a STMP or STAP file? Markers only work in STMP or STAP files.
It's pretty easy to select the Help menu and type the work "marker" in the search field, fwiw.

HT1391 I have a thousands of duplicated songs from my itunes because my little cousin wanted to convert all the songs in my itunes to mp3 for his mp3 player. How do I move all of the mp3 files into the trash while leaving the originals from my Itunes?

My little cousin coverted all my music in Itunes to MP3. Now I have duplicates of everything. How do I erase ONLY the duplictaed MP3. Leaving my original original songs in Itunes available?
Thanks!

If they are in the iPad's Music app then the only way to get them out of it is by connecting the iPad to a computer. As they aren't iTunes purchases you won't be able to copy them back to a computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, instead you will need a third-party program on the computer to copy them off - there are some listed half-way down this page which should work: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
