I cannot import particular cds that have a media player on them.

I have two cds magic numbers and the chilli peppers which already have a media player on them. When I put them in they start playing with the media player on the cd this means itunes does recognise them and I cannot therefore import them.
Any ideas how to override the media player on the cds?

Sounds like you have "protected" CDs that were designed to prevent music transfers.
Depending on who put them out and when (If they date back to the great Sony rootkit debacle, and were put out by Sony, you've got some nasty software now installed on your computer and this won't work.)just holding down the shift key when you put the CD in the drive will disable the media player and, for now, disable Auto-Run.

  • VIewing web-sites that have windows media player action

    Some web-sites I visit give me the message " Safari Can't Display Content on This Page Some content on this page requires an Internet plug-in that Safari doesn’t support. The application “Windows Media Player” may be able to display this content. Would you like to try?"
    I have windows media player on my computer. How do I get the media player to allow me to view these pages?

    Video plays for me on the site you posted.
    As I suggested, install the Flip4Mac plug-in. After installing, open the preference file via System Preferences>Flip4Mac. On the Plug-in panel, 1st and 3rd boxes are checked. On the Movies panel, 1st box is checked.
    Just in case, go to the Utilities folder>Disk Utility and "repair permissions" via the First Aid panel (click on your HD on the left of the window, "repair permissions" will appear on the right. Restart the computer. Try the video in Safari.

  • How do I get CDs that have been imported into iTunes library to sync/transfer to phone?? very frustrating and any help would be appreciated. all the material i purchased from itunes transferred fine, but CDs won't. Please help!

    How do I get CDs that have been imported into my iTunes library to sync/transfer to my iPhone?? All the material that I purchased from iTunes has transferred just fine, but although the CDs will import to iTunes, they will not sync up with my phone. How do I do this?? I am very frustrated and would greatly appreciate any help.

    In what format did you import the cds?
    I have never had an issue with this.

  • I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version

    I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version & also the one I have created/saved???

    Jules,
    You may delete Numbers 08 if you wish, but some folks like keeping it around. Close all your Numbers docs and Quit the Numbers app, and the other Numbers app if necessary.Then click the Numbers icon on your doc. Then select Numbers > About Numbers, and in the window that pops up, see which version it is. If the Dock icon started Numbers 08, you can cure that by dragging that icon off the Dock and letting it go in a puff of virtual smoke.
    Now, to put the Numbers 09 icon on the Dock, double-click one of those known Numbers 09 documents so that Numbers 09 starts up. Verify by checkig Numbers > about Numbers.
    Now click and hold the Numbers Dock icon and select the Option for Keep in Dock.

  • Is there a way to import images that have been edited and assign them to the original?

    I am transitioning to mac and aperture. Is there a way to import images that have been edited and assign them to the original? I have 10,000 originals and about 2,000 edited images. The originals are named img_XXXX and anything modified img_XXXX_modified. I would like to be able to import the originals and then import the edited versions and assign them to the original masters. Instead of starting from here and going forward with 12,000 masters, some of which are actual originals and others not. Thanks for the help.

    Ah, the vestiges of a destructive workflow! Once you "get" Aperture, (specifically Masters and Versions) you are going to love it, as all of this work goes away - the relationship that you seek to retain is automatic in Aperture; it is simply done differently.
    The short answer to your question is EVERY image file that is Imported into Aperture will create a new Master and one Version. Assuming that your images are PSD/TIFF/JPEG that you created in something like Photoshop, then each one that your import will be a new Master. You have many options:
    -- Stick the originals in one Project(s) and the edited versions in another Project(s).
    -- Stick them all in the same Project(s) and "Stack" them.
    But here is the real question: Why are you doing all of this work and what are you trying to accomplish? Seems you are trying to preserve old things that don't need preserving in a non-destructive workflow.
    So, what is most valuable to you?
    -- The original, out of camera files? (That is, the fear/need to revert.)
    -- The edited versions? (That is the hours of work that it took you to get there.)
    If the former, import the originals and ignore the edited versions. (Either simply leave them out on disk or import them into their own Projects which you ignore.) Use Aperture to recreate the work you had done previously. This will always give you the ability to revert to the original Master and create as many Versions as you want. This is the best idea if your edits are relatively simple crops and exposure adjustments,
    If the latter, then import the edited versions and do as above with the originals. This makes more sense if your work uses lots of layers and, perhaps lots of clone tool type corrections.
    Of course, you can do a bit of both.
    Others may have better suggestions, but you will find it easy to answer your own question when you understand an image based, as opposed to a file based, non-destructive workflow.
    Good luck!

  • When I import my CDs to ITunes it splits some of them into 2 or 3 separate albums. Is there a way I can combine them into one?

    When I imported my CDs into ITunes it split some of them into 2 or 3 separate albums. Is there a way to recombine them back into one album?

    If your CD has tracks with different artists, then you need to identify it as a 'compilation' CD. Select all of the tracks in the CD, then 'get info' (control-I), and go to 'Options'. Select 'yes' for 'Part of a compilation'. That should fix the problem.

  • How to use EWS or Powershell to rename all folders that have a forward slash in them

    We have many users that have created folders in Outlook that have forward slashes in the name (i.e. / ). They did this in Outlook/Exchange 2003. We upgraded to Outlook 2010 and this is no longer aloud so there are issues with the folders when performing
    functions such as trying to share or using IMAP, etc.
    I'm looking for a way to specify a particular user's mailbox in a script and have it traverse every folder/subfolder and check if there is a forward slash in the name. If there is a forward slash I would like to rename the folder to something like the bar
    character (i.e |) or another character that is valid.
    I had most users go through Outlook manually and clean them up. However there are a handful of users that have hundreds if not thousands of subfolders that have the forward slash in them.
    I've done extensive research on this (references to my research below) and came close in putting a script together but I just can't figure it out. Anyone have an example for this? Even if I need to specify a folder within the Inbox and have the script only
    process subfolders from this location would be acceptable since most of them are subfolders of a particular folder.
    Thank you.

    First two articles are for public folders so it won't help here as you have mailbox folders...

    This is good starting point, you might need to change the logics around it  to search / and replace with - or someting, this might be the code change needed from that article but would suggest you to test it first.
    foreach ($folder in $ffResponse.Folders)
    if ($folder.Displayname -like “*/*”)
    Write-Output “Found / in the $mailboxName and folder name is $folder.Displayname”
    $folder.Displayname.Replace("/","-")
    $folder.Update()

    My table of contents does not use the entry style I select for words in the paragraph that have character styles applied to them in the chapter, so some of the letters, specifically parameters, are showing up green, which is fine in the chapter but not in the TOC. I can manually fix this in the TOC by changing the character style to none after the toc  has been generated, but I don't want to do this.

  • How to find PDF files that have other documents bundeled within them?

    Hello guys
    I need help with the following: we have a huge number of PDF files that have other documents imbedded (bundled, attached) in them. If such a document is open in Acrobat, bundled files show up as attachments on the left. Some of those attachements are .mdi files. This is Microsoft Document Images files. Is there a way to flag PDF's that have those .mdi files in them? I need to find them and convert to PDF. If I need to be more descriptive please ask, and thank you in advance for help.

    Preflight is a complex plugin, it's hard to explain how to use it in one forum post. You need to read the documentation carefully.
    There's no pre-built profile for what you want, so you would first create a new Custom Check that compares the MIME type string of embedded files to what you're searching for (not the file extension but the full MIME identifier, which for Office files is a very long string). You would then place that new Custom Check into a new Profile, identifying it as an error condition. Once you've saved the Profile you can run it against a number of files and specify actions to be taken for pass and fail conditions, such as changing the filename or moving to a subfolder.

  • I am getting an error saying "Your computer doesn't seem to support any version of Media Player". When I look at my list of plugins I do see that I have Window Media Player Firefox Plugin 1.0.0.8. Why am I getting this error?

    I am trying to load a page & I get the error "Your computer doesn't seem to support any version of Media Player". I then go to the tools & to add ons & to plugins. There under the plugins is Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin 1.0.0.8. It is enabled. My question is what does this error mean? Do I have the Media Player I need or not?

    Notes:
    1) Please use the code tags when posting code or JNLP/HTML. It helps to retain indentation and avoids asterisks and plus sings being interpreted as formatting marks. To do that, select the code/JNLP etc. and click the CODE button seen on the Plain Text tab of the message posting form.
    2) That launch file is invalid. You might check it (and the project in general) using JaNeLA.
    3) The only place that SimpleSerial class could be, that the JRE would find, is in the root of aeon.jar. Is it actually there?

  • Itunes won't play any cd i put in the drive (macbook pro). I am running paralells with windows 7 and have disables media player so that didn't help

    itunes won't recognize/play/import any cd i put in the drive. I am also running paralells with windows 7 and have disabled media player. any suggestions?

    I have the same problem.
    On launch itunes works fine.
    If I let it play through a full album of songs unatended, when I return it respondes, but will not play music. I can browse my collection, but when i click the play button, press the space bar with a track selected or double cclick a track it will not play. A restart of iTunes solves the problem temporarily.

    That's because the billing information is out of date or there was a problem with a previous purchase.
    Then after that it says i need to pay to update my apps that have already been purchased or apps that i have gotten for free
    No. That's not what it says. What is the EXACT message you get?
    However, when i took my iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1.1  to the apple store, the "geniuses" have told me i have outstanding payments on an app so in order to update them, i need to go and purchase more itunes cards.. So i have went out and bought about Three 20$ itunes cards hoping that by using just 1 card - it would fix the problem im having. but it isnt.
    Contact iTunes store support and find out what the problem is.
    ALSO if i purchase an app without having the same amount of what it costs it will not let me buy/download it
    Um... yeah... That's the way it works. If you want to buy something, you have to have enough to actually pay for it.
    Contact iTunes store support.
    You're not talking to Apple.  This is a user forum.

    I'm going to take a guess that you are referring to iTunes match in iTunes on your Mac. (as in the screenshot below)
    Tunes without symbols, mean that the file is stored on your Mac.

  • My company web site said I don't have windows media player or Acrobat Reader. If I use IE It lets me in. What do I do?

    My company web site said I don't have windows mediA player or Acrobat Reader. If I go in with IE I don't have any problems. What do I do?

    There is a very good chance you are experiencing a problem with having both Reader and Acrobat installed on the same machine.
    You need to remove one and repair (or possibly reinstall) the other. It isn't recommended or supported to have both.
