How do i stop my music from sounding like it has interferance when i copy cd's to windows or itunes?

hi, i'm having trouble with the sound quality on some cd's that i copy to windows 7 or itunes, it kinda comes out all crackly & sounds like there's interferance, the cd's themselves are playing on other appliances & sound ok.
i've tuned-up my pc thinking that would rectify the problem but to no avail.
thanks,
pete.

i do, but like i said it fell once and since then it hasn't been able to connect to my laptop. it acts like nothing's connected. i believe if i call the company the HDD is from they'll be able to transfer it to a new one but who knows how much they'd charge. looks like i have no choice now.
If it were truly a backup, then the media would play on the laptop as it would be on the laptop.
Sounds like you actually do not have a backup, instead you chose to keep your media on an external drive.
Regardless of where the media is stored, it's always a good idea to have a backup for instances like this.

  • How do I sync my music from my iphone to my mac when I have created a itunes library on my old computer?

    How do I sync my music from my iphone to my mac when I have created a itunes library on my old Hewitt packard computer?
    Thought by connecting my phone to computer it would automatically duplicate. Only seems to work with a small amount of music which I downloaded through my mac
    Im no expert with computers so need some step by step advice
    I have over 1000 songs on my iphone and want to back it up on my mac itunes
    Want to upgrade my iphone and dont want to loose my music and ideally want to import it onto my new iphone
    Need help?

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss.  To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

    Then your iTunes must be looking at the removable disc, not your hard drive. Did you actually copy the songs onto your computer, or simply tell iTunes to look at the removable drive?
    Highlight a song and click on File/Get Info/Summary>Where and check the location that iTunes has listed for the song. What does it say?

  • How do I stop icloud music from playing on my iPhone?

    Currently I have no music on my iPhone as I primarily use spotify. The only music is from iCloud, some of it I don't even remember downloading in the first place.
    How can I stop this from downloading to my iPhone? Also, when I press the pause with my headphones on Spotify my iTunes music plays. Hoping that if I get rid of it that won't happen anymore.
    Already checked:
    Settings>>Music (Show All Music set to only downloaded music to device shown, iTunes match not subscribed to)

    Hello RationalPuppet
    If you go to Settings > Music and then toggle off Show All Music that will prevent from seeing your downloaded music. I have also provided other articles for hiding purchases and even deleting purchases from iTunes in the Cloud.

    The hide feature does not stop the songs from playing it only removes them from sight. Or how can I remove songs from my iCloud.

  • How do I stop my music from fast forwarding all the time?

    Every time I try to play something on my iPod, it fast forwards through the song I'm trying to listen to or several songs or even the whole CD and I can't listen to any music at all. I also have trouble getting it to sleep and to stop playing. Do I have to replace something or is this fixable?

    In the previous software you could double tap the home button and the apps icons would appear (shaking) and all you had to do was to press the red - button to turn off.  Well since updating to iOS7 all have been able to do is pause but I am unable to turn it off from playing in the background.
    A friend of mine says to swipe upward but I still don't see a delete/off button.

  • How can I stop my ipod from going to my picture library when connected to my computer?

    A week or so ago I clicked the option that was saying "Transfer photos from ipod to computer" under the "What should this device do" option thing when you first connect your ipod to your computer. I have windows 8.1. Anyway, I thought the photo thing was a one time deal and it wouldn't ask me "what to do" again. Usually i ignore it but I did,in fact, have photos to put on my computer that day.
    Now every time I plug my ipod into my computer it takes me to my picture library to start "reading" my ipod photos and if you have windows 8 or greater, that is very annoying because it's its own separate "application". Is there a way to reset this setting without resetting my ipod so it doesn't take me to my picture library each time? I can deal with the pop-up when you first connect I just don't wanna have to keep exiting my picture library each time I connect my ipod.

    It's simply called Photos and there is no options/setting thing on it. I have windows 8, it's a stand alone photo library viewer.

  • How can i stop my iphone from allowing computers to download photos when connected?

It doesnt make sence to me that if you try and get on my phone you cant look at anything, but connect it to a computer and it allows you to download all pictures and videos.

    What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • How can I stop Adobe Reader from reading (seeking) the floppy drive when opening/closing any PDF?

    Ever since I opened a PDF file from my floppy drive Adobe Reader insists on checking/seeking/reading the floppy drive whenever I open and whenever I close any PDF (not using the floppy).  It is very annoying, as I use many PDFs per day and it creates a delay and noise every time.

    Edit>Preferences
    Under Page Display:
    Where it says "Location of referenced files", if it shows "Floppy Disk A:/" clear the box, or choose an alternate location if you can't clear it.

  • How do I stop my pages from changing (paragraphs breaking, chapters moving) when trying to export?

    I'm fairly new to indesign and am self teaching myself via the internet and books. I'm working on a novel layout and I had it finished and what I thought looked nice. The last step was to export it to a PDF format I thought. Well, when I export it and then view the PDF a few paragraphs are broken with a few lines between the first part and second part. Chapters also lose their position. I would go back into InDesign and check and it would be that was in indesign as well. I've fixed it a dozen times. Double and triple checked the pages before hitting export again. Again, more trouble, but it would be in different places. Am I doing something wrong during the export?

    Did you start this book in an earlier version if InDesign and convert it? If so, the text engine is different in the new version and stories reflow when you touch them in some way. You can force ID to recompose all stories using the Keyboard Shortcut Ctrl + Alt +/ on Windows or Cmd + Opt + / on Mac, then check carefully throughthe whole thing.
    You can also force a recompose by exporting to .idml and opeing that, then saving with a new name. (See Remove minor corruption by exporting)
