How do I save or open an mp3 or m4a email attachment to iTunes?

If I receive am mp3 or m4a attachment by email, I'd like to be able to open it in iTunes on my iPad/iPhone and have it saved there permanently.
Is this possible or do I need to connect my iPad/iPhone to my desktop, save the song to iTunes and synch with my device?

Unfortunately it is not possible. You would need to import the attachment to iTunes on your computer and then Sync it to the devices.
Alternatively you can download a 3rd party Media player that can support the formats, and store the file there permanently. It will not be in your library, but it will be saved on your device. (iPhone or iPad)

how do i save a pdf file from an incoming email on my ipad 2

If you have iBooks on your iPad you have the option to save it to that. Just tap and hold on the document link and the options will pop up. Hit "open with ibooks" and it will save it in there for you. Thats one option

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.

Well, I must disagree with both of you.
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.

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 to make save dialog open up folder where document originates as default

Hello
I was wondering if there is a way to make save dialog open up the folder where document originates as default. I feel Like I am wasting a lot of unnecessary time navigating through menus saving certain documents.
Example : I open an Excel document in a folder called 2009. I make some changes and then do a "save as" -- I want it to automatically bring me first to the folder where I opened it, not the last place where I saved to.
I recall being able to set this preference in macs a looong time ago. Now I can't seem to find it. Thank for your help

Rick,
Sorry about the misgiving adresses, folders and access rights. My question is not about these three (they were just here to tell the story). You're perfectly right to say that in a local network, there's not need to complete the full IP or ".com" name of the PCs (even if it works all the same).
When I said "of course" for the perms, it was just to mean, in the same way, that it's not this kind of problems here.
My question is much more a human/mac graphic interface problem than a network problem. I want the people (as well as myself) to be able to go in a folder on the pc network with a simple click on an smb link in an email message (as they do now on an ftp or afp link).
Thanks for the bother,

How do I save an image when there is a link attached?

At times I run across an image that I want to "save" but it has a link attached to it, usually a link to the site's home page.
When the link is there I am not given an option to save the image, just options relating to the link.
How can I save such an image?

Links can use "inline" images or "background" images.
Inline images should appear on the right-click menu whether they are linked or not. (For example, the picture to the left of this reply should have both a link section and an image section.)
Background images may not appear in that scenario (for example, the Firefox logo at the top of this page). You can save those images using
Tools > Page Info > Media
but it does take a little time to down-arrow through the list to find the one you want to save.

No option when opening a pdf from an email attachment

I recently had trouble opening a pdf file that was attached to an email, and while mucking around with it, I tried opening it up in Word (which didn't help that particular problem anyway). Unfortunately, now, all my emailed pdf files open up automatically in Word rather than Acrobat Reader.
So now my question is, how do I get them to automatically open in Acrobat reader directly from the emailed attachment instead of Word? At the moment I have to save them all to my c: drive, then right click on them and select Open With Acrobat Reader 10. What I want is for them to automatically open in Acrobat Reader 10 rather than having to save them all to my c: drive first because I have many, many of them to print out. Can anyone help me with this please?

Hi,
Can you try saving any PDF onto your local machine (say C:\) and then right click on the same.
1. Click on the "Open With > Chose Program".
2. Select Adobe Reader 10 and make sure that you check the checkbox "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file"
3. Click on OK and you should be good to go.
Hope this does the trick

How to convert a workbook into PDF and broadcast as Email attachment

Hello Gurus,
i have installed the ADS (Adobe Document services). I would like to broadcast workbooks as a pdf file to some user.
When i open the workbook and go to Broadcast --> Setup a broadcast setting for this workbook. The distribution type is
Broadcast E-mail; Broadcast E-mail (Bursting); Broadcast Portal; Broadcast Multichannel and Output Format only MS Workbook and Link to current Data. Here i miss the possibility as PDF.
Where can i set up that the workbook should be broadcast as PDF.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks and kind rgerads,
Murat

Thanks all for your answers,
i also read that with changing the format in Report designer then broadcasting via PDF. Is there no possibility for PDFs for MS Excel Workbooks? How does it work when opening the query in Report designer? What do i have to do there but it is no solution for us because in the workbooks we use GET BEX DATA formulas and just show parts of the analyisis grid. I need a proper solution how to use broadcaster converting workbooks into PDF an send them as email attachment
Thanks,
Murat

Why isn't an option to open Pages available with rtf email attachment?

I was able to open an email attachment in Pages on my iPad2 before, but the option has disappeared. How do I get it back?

Pages doesn't support RTF, so it won't appear as an option when you try and open the attachment. The file formats that Pages for iOS supports can be found here:

How to retrive the archived (in PDF) smartform as a email attachment.

Hi ,
I have a requirement where the smartform is archived in PDF mode and I have to retrieve the archived smartfrom and send the mail with PDf attachment.
I referred the sdn forum for the same and I could some posts posted earlier and quite a few are solved.

But I didnt understand what exactly they did to get away with the error when we try to open the attachment.
Please help me with the correct code to get this issue solved.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Sim,
The Error says:
"Adobe reader could not open 'InvoiceDetails_20110228094610.709_X.pdf' because it is either not a supported file or because the file has been damaged(for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decorded).
Below is the sample code that I got from one of the forum postings. I implemented the same and got the same error that the earlier posting was referring. From that step, I didnt know what to do further.

How to open an mp3 in an email in iTunes

ok, so 2nd time posted here... i guess i stumped everyone last time.
i'm running lion
so i get an email with an mp3 attachment... mp3 shows up in the preview... you can click on the little play button and preview it.
great.
where is the option for me to double click it inside of mail? as it stands now, i have to either save the file and open it, or i have to use quicklook and "open with" in the upper right hand window of quicklook.
thanks, everyone!

it give me the option to open it in iTunes, that's what! thanks!

How do I save the open tabs when I close Firefox 5? There should be a dialog box opens that asks if you want to do this. Without it I will stop using Firefox.

This was available in earlier versions and was a great feature. Please restore it or give us a workaround.

It seems that they decided to disable this feature by default for some reason. In your address bar, type in "about:config" and search for browser.showQuitWarning" in the filter, without quotes. Double-click this string to set it to "true." Firefox should then ask you if you would like to save and quit, or just quit, when exiting with multiple tabs opened.
Another option is to go to the "General" tab in your preferences and and under "Startup" -> "When Firefox starts," select "Show my windows and tabs from last time" from the drop-down list. This way, your opened tabs are always saved, and always restored.
Finally, you can achieve this functionality (and more) with the Session Manager add-on. Session Manager is nice because it allows you to save and restore multiple tab sessions. I also find that it's a more reliable fail-safe for saving your opened tabs when it comes to browser crashes.

I must be missing something...is there a video that teaches how to create, save and open a session?

I just don't seem to get it. Opening an old session seems difficult if you can't remember the specific name. Files in those sessions are not saved it seems unless you save each one individually. (Am I wrong here) Can someone help this early morning radio guy...I must be missing a step but I can't figure it out.

I have that problem sometimes, too. Personally I put it down to my age!

Audition won't let you close a session with unsaved files without putting up a warning about it - and you get an option to save all of them. By default, files get put in the {session name}_Recorded file with the sesx file (the session information) in the root folder. In there as well you can get Bounced file folders, and also one for mixdowns. When you first create a session, you get to choose the path you use, and everything else just occurs in a structure beneath that, which you can add to if you want. Whenever you need to save things, you get a browse option as well - worth using that first.
I really don't think it's that difficult, and the new scheme (yes it's not quite like the previous version) seems to work fine. With the best will in the world, Adobe can't compensate for anybody's amnesia though! Since there isn't a particular limit on what name you give your sessions, then the best thing to do if you're likely to forget is to give them longer, more meaningful names - and make sure that the folder they're in has the same name. Also, try to keep a relatively flat folder structure - in other words, don't have them nested several layers deep in a huge tree structure - that never helps.

HOW MAY I SAVE MULTIPLE-OPENED BROWSING TABS WHEN CLOSING FIREFOX, PLEASE?

When closing Firefox I would like to be able to leave some tabs open so my next session just carries on, as though I had left a real $5.00 note bookmark in an ole-fashioned book.

Firefox 4 automatically saves your tabs and windows when you exit to restore them just click the Firefox button>History menu>Restore Previous Session and it will open your previous tabs and windows in addition to your current tabs and windows.
