How to convert .mp4 files that come into iTunes as Movies into Music Videos

I've tried selecting a file and then going into the "Get Info", then "Options" and then to "Media Kind", but for some reason it is greyed out and I am unable to change these .mp4's into music videos.  Any suggestions are SO appreciated!!!

Ok, I checked and the file is NOT locked.  Any other suggestions?  It shows the file as an MPEG-4 movie .mp4, but I just can't get it to change from a movie to a music video so that I can see the artist.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

  • Pocket Playlist- how to convert mp4 file to use on pocket playlist

    I have an mp4 video that i would like to use on my pocket playlist, but not sure how to convert the file?

    Hello Andy,
    I do not have an HP Pocket drive but according to the manual...
    The pocket acts as any other drive to store files on. Its the media player that you use that has to support the type of file you are playing.
    This is cut from the manual.
    "File types supported by HP Pocket PlaylistYour playback device may not support all of the following formats. If your playback device does not support a format, use the ArcSoft MediaConverter 7 computer application to convert (transcode) the files into a format that will play back on your mobile device.
    HP Pocket Playlist supports the following file formats:
    Video: .avi, .3gp, .flv, .m4v, .m4p, .mov, mp4, .mpeg, .mpeg2, .mpg, .ogg, .qt, .ts, .tts, .wmv
    Music: .aac, .ac3, .adts, asf, .lpcm, .m4a, .mp3, wav, wma
    Photo: .bmp, .gif, .jpeg, .png, .tiff, .tif
    You need to import files with the "Arcsoft Media Converter" which will convert the format for you.
    Here are the links to all the info for HP Pocket Drives.

  • How to convert RAW files that saved in UCCX server to wav file?

    Hi all,
    How we can covert the RAW files that are saved in UCCX server to wav file by using command prompt in UCCX servers. Or is there some other way? So that we should be able to hear the sound of these files.
    C:\Program Files\Cisco\Desktop_Audio

    Hi,
    I use Switch File Audio Convertor from NCH Software to do this.
    It is a commercial product but there is a time limited evaluation and if you decide to keep it it is only $30.

    It is great for converting audio files to the correct format for music on hold as well.

  • How to convert to file that will play in quicktime

    I just imported and edited a .mov and mp3 audio file in logic express. Now, how can I save this into a type of file that will play outside of Logic?

    What I meant was bouncing whatever you want to play in Quicktime - you can bounce a whole song (digital mixdown) or you can solo a track/mute tracks that you don't want included and then use the cycle bar to determine a length to mix down.
    When you hit the 'bounce' button or choose it from the menu you'll have a series of options to choose from - whether you want a compressed file (MP3, AAC) or uncompressed (wav of aiff) and so on so you can choose the appropriate type. If you choose the desktop for the destination of the file you can drag it over the Quicktime icon in your dock (if its not there you can put it there) and it will play in Quicktime.

  • HELP: I have an impossibly long rendering time after converting .MP4 files from Go Pro Camera to .MOV on Final Cut Pro 7. PLEASE ADVISE.

    I am working on a project and shot guerilla style footage with a Go Pro camera, which produced .MP4 files incompatible with FCP7. When I converted the files to .MOV, I realized the rendering time in the sequence editor is impossibly long. I am working with a deadline and the rendering time exceeds the deadline, let alone editing time. Suggestions???

    Telling us you converted to .mov doesn't tell us much. MOV is a container that supports a very wide range of codecs. It is the specific CODEC that matters.
    You most likely did not convert the material to a FCP7 native format. ProRes is recommended and, given the compression of the GoPro, ProRes LT would be the best choice.
    Use Compressor to convert everything to ProResLT and life will be much simpler.

  • How to backup the files that are into the Time Capsule HD? is it possible?

    Hi my question is not so simple...I think
    I'm using a TC only as a router and a network HD
    and I saved on it all my movies, tv shows and also my itunes library and iphoto library to share all this stuff also to my mac mini which is connected to my Plasma tv.
    I wanna know if is it possible to backup with time machine the TC hard disk
    because I don't know how to tell to time machine to backup not my macs but my TC.
    I read this article that explain How to enable Time Machine on unsupported volumes
    http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/10/how-to-enable-time-machine-on-unsupported-vol umes/
    You think that if I activate this option Time Machine can read from TC and make a backup of it?

    No, sorry, Time Machine cannot back up a network drive.
    You can copy ("archive") everything on the TC's internal HD to a USB drive connected to it, per the green box in #Q6 Using TIME MACHINE with a TIME CAPSULE *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum. That's probably the simplest and easiest way, but it's also likely the slowest.
    Or, see Kappy's post on Basic Backup, complete with links to the web sites of each product. I've also heard that Chronosync may work for this purpose.

  • Converting mp4 files to mp3 files

    could someone tell me how to convert mp4 files into mp3 files? thanks

    Now this is clear.
    You didn't have an .mp4 file or even a .m4a file. Yours is .m4p.
    The "p" stands for protected.
    The rules say you can burn your .m4p files to CD. The CD file will be in .aiff format.
    Drag the .aiff file into iTunes and then "convert" (using the options in your preferences for bit rate and extension).

  • How to get PDF file that has been transformed into docx into my filing system so I can work on it???

    How can I get the PDF file that was transformed into a docx file into my filing system to be able to work on it and translate it as the customer requested?

    THanks for your reply.
    Well what happens is I bought the program. It gives you a button to click,
    you log in and then a box opens up asking you to select the file, I go into
    my filing system (in Windows explorer) select the file, and the program
    converts it into docx, my choice.  I can read it there and when I try to
    copy and paste it into my file where the PDF version is saved, it behaves
    like an "image", and I can't save it.... or it saves likes something you
    save on the internet, so you have to go into internet every time you want
    to see it.    I have also pressed any amount of buttons to see if it will
    give me the option to save it any other way, and have found nothing.  What
    I would need is a file in docx.format that I can edit.  People send me
    things in PDF and sometimes I can just copy it off the PDF file and save it
    in WOrd, then I can translate it for them. But sometimes the PDF file
    doesnt allow me to copy the text.  If it is in image form, I cannot work on
    it.  It means printing it, so I can copy type it into Word... and for that
    I certainly wouldnt need to buy a program.  Its just double the work and
    ends up that the job takes twice as long.!
    Sorry  if I am a bit dumb with informatics.  But I simply could not find
    any way whatever to  copy the PDF file that was transformed into Word, in a
    format that would enable me to edit it.
    Kindest regards,

  • How to convert Oracle reports previewer output into delimited file.

    How to convert Oracle reports previewer output into delimited file if the report has more than 1000 pages.
    I tried with previewer option File --> Generate to file --> Delimited file, but the report engine is crashing.Not generating .TXT file.
    I observed that this option is not working for more than 400 pages.
    I am using Oracle reports 6i version.
    Plz suggest me to generate .TXT file from Report previewer.

    You can specify a delimiter (a character or string of characters) to separate the data (boilerplate or field objects) in your report output in either of the following ways:
    On the command line using the DELIMITER keyword.
    In the Delimited Output dialog box or DelimitedData Output dialog box (displayed with File > Generate to File > Delimited or File > Generate to File > DelimitedData) in Reports Builder.
