How to purchase a song in loss less format

How to purchase a song in loss less format, and I also want to convert the existing that I purchase into loss less format

The "mass market" music retailers such as the iTunes Store, Amazon MP3, and Google Play, do not sell lossless downloads. 
Most specialty music download retailers do have lossless downloads, although they tend to have more limited selections than the mass market ones.  Shop around and you may find what you are looking for.
Do not bother attempting to convert MP3s or AAC files to lossless.  You will get bigger files without improving the audio.

  • Import Analog 8mm Home Movies thru ADVC 110  NEED LOSS LESS Format -IMovie8

    Works fine however Import defaults to an .mv4 file.
    Is this a Loss Less Format and if not is IMovie8 capable of a Loss Less type format like IMovie dv or similar.
    if So how do I change the setting to get the highest quality import of my old analog 8mm home movies ?
    Thank You
    Daniel

    Hi
    You don't use iMovie'08 or 09 but iMovie HD 6 or FinalCut.
    iMovie'08 & 09 discard every second line when importing interlaced video.
    (Or when exporting it out to DVD at least - Not my favourite for intelaced (normal TV/and miniDV tape) material)

  • How to Purchase a Song to Create a Ringtone if Store Not Available

    Apple is forcing people to buy a song from iTunes to create ringtones.
    I bought my iPhone in Turkey and wanted to use my own ringtone since I don't like the ones on the phone but iTunes store is CLOSED to the Turkish residents.
    I don't know anything about the copyright agreement between Apple and music makers but Apple should resolve this issue.
    I want to pay and buy...

    Apple can't resolve the issue, since it's all wrapped up in copyright and distribution rights for your country. There are lots of other ways to create ringtones, though; just search the web for something like "iphone ringtone create" and you'll find lots of information.

    Thanks

  • Is there a way to convert my existing music ( on my i-pod gen 2 ) from AIFF to the Apple Loss-less file type ?

    Hi Folks,
    Hope someone can help -
    After spendings Hours / Days loading copying masses of music ( mostly CD's) to my recently acquired i-pod touch
    I'm now fast running out of space!
    Most all of this was loaded using the AIFF file format - which I now realise is almost twice the file size
    when compared to the Apple Loss-Less format -
    I've tried selecting high/lighting tracks ( on the pod )  then select File ( top right on tab ) & then Right Click >
    But the option to convert to Apple-LL is 'Greyed out' ?
    How do I convert them ? ( Preferable in groups or at least Album by Album rather than starting all over from scratch! )
    Await your thoughts Regards  M.G.
    Apoligies if Iv'e missed out any relevant details - As youv'e probably guessed I'm a bit ~ new to this ~

    Hi IIIaass,
    Yes I've tried diffrent kbps settings but as I don't know how they copare with AplesLL
    it's a bit hit & miss??
    Basically all my music is for Dance sessions which often get played at a fair
    old volume ( to fill the hall ) which is why I've decided to get it all in one format -
    Iv'e just purchased an i-Pad ( to replace my i-Pod ) as it has much larger
    storage capacity. It's only a Gen1 - but is soley for music
    ( so not bothered about internet or watching DVD's etc )
    Yes Iv'e had a Google - but it doesn't sound promising
    ( the few that do seem to be compatable still have problems with 'Tags' or
    something to do with track lists / data ?? ) 
    I'm gonner stick with Apple LL - It's what the i-Pad was made for ( me thinks )
    Do you know what quality is used by i-Tunes it-self for it's downloads?
    I ask this because if I recall correctly?  Under the heading where you can
    sellect kbps or AIFF etc it states " These settings do not apply to downloads"
    I think what I'm trying to ascertain is - Would I get far better results by buying CD's
    & manualy copying them to my i-tunes device - rather than downloading inferior versions?
    My reasoning re- going this route is -  I'll always have hard copies to keep ( literally )
    Along with the saving grace ( & heart ache ) if/when a device fails or the system
    crashes I'd risk loosing everything !
    Anyhows, Thanks for your support
    Kind Regards  M.G.

  • I recently purchased a song and my entire song library was deleted after it downloaded. The photos and aps are still there, but no tunes. Anyone know how to fix this? I have songs loaded on the ipod that I don't want to loose and they are not in MY itunes

    I recently purchased a song from itunes and when the song downloaded, it deleted/removed my entire song library. Only leaving the one song.
    My photos and aps are still there, but no songs. Anyone ever encounter this and how do you fix it? I  don't want to loose my songs as some are not in MY itunes library. Help

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

    Hi, Mrs.Frankie57. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you want to delete a song from your iOS device on iOS 7, tap Songs, swipe the song from right to left, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

    I have an iTunes account with a $25.00 credit but everytime I go to purchase a song, it goes to my credit card details. How do I use the iTunes credit and not the credit card?

    Just to confirm, you are logged into the iTunes Store using the account in which the balance exists, and the balance is showing at the top of the iTunes Store window? And you're not trying to purchase gifts for someone else?

  • I purchased an ablum thru itunes on my phone and it says i purchased the songs on itunes but when i go on my music it says i have to repurchase all the songs how can i get the songs with out havin to pay again

    Whether you can redownload music depends upon what country that you in. If you are using your computer's iTunes then does music show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (on your phone you might be able to redownload media via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app) ? If music shows there, but not that album, then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If you aren't in a country when you can redownload music and it's still on your phone then you should be able to copy it over from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.

  • How to purchase songs with a iTunes gift card balance added to your account

    I have redeemed an iTunes gift card to my iTunes account.  I now have a balance of $25.00.  When trying to purchase some songs to add to my iPod Shuffle, I do NOT find a dropdown box for either PURCHASE or BUY.  I can add the songs to my Wish List, send a link, gift a song, etc - but NO Purchase / buy option.  If I try to gift songs to myself, it will ask for a Billing Account.  Why must a Billing Account be added if I already have a balance of $25.00 to use.
    I have pulled a iPod Shuffle manual and it only tells me to Buy - if no option o Buy is available, just how do you do it??  This is EXTREMELY frustrating!!
    If anyone has an idea just how to accomplish this, please send instructions (since the manual on line does not spell it out).  Frankly I am disappointed in even purchasing the iPod Schuffle if I cannot even use the iTunes gift card I purchased.
    Thank You
