Import Ableton Live files into Garageband?

I've been a WIndows user for sometime and recently made the switch to Mac. I made a lot of songs on Ableton Live and would like to move them into GarageBand to continue working on them. What's the best way to do this to retain the sound and continue editing them?
Thank you.

Thanks a lot. I was able to export it as an aiff file and brought it into GarageBand. It's a tedious process because I can't have each track in its own column but they are all merged into one. So I had to mute each track one by one and export.
Will keep thread open if I find anything else.

How do I import a midi file into garageband for iPad?

I have a midi file (with .mid extension) on my laptop.
Can I import it into Garageband on my iPad 2 and if so how?
Thanks in advance!

Connect your device to your computer.
In iTunes left Pane, click your ipad under Device. On right Pane, click Movie Tab. Check box Sync Movies, then check the movie you want it to be sync, then click the Sync button at the lower right wimdow.

Save the file from Gmail onto your computer and add it to iTunes. How you save from Gmail is a Gmail question (their own support pages), not an iTunes question.

Importing adobe illustrator files into powerpoint. (Vector)

How can I import vector Illustrator files into Powerpoint, so I can edit them later. I have tried PDF (won't work), WMF text breacks up and scaling makes the text crap!
EPS looks rubbish.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Need to edit the graphic colour and change update text.
Then you can't build it in Illustrator; at least not all of it.*
...or create in Power point...
.That's your answer. Ultimately, Powerpoint-editable = Powerpoint native.
...which is very limited!
Are you just assuming that, or have you actually tried to do something and found it impossible? Plenty of drawing can be done in Powerpoint, and text is text. What exactly are you trying to do?
*If you are running Windows, there are ways to get straight Illustrator vectors (no live effects, blends, meshes, etc.) onto a Powerpoint slide using Paste Special. Forget text though, seeing as you need it live and editable in Powerpoint...you'll have no choice but to set it in Powerpoint.

Importing issues from itunes into garageband

I am having trouble importing songs from Itunes into garageband. This has happened sometime within the last 3-4 weeks or so and the first time I noticed it was today. It won't let me click and drag from itunes. It just bounces back. I am able to go into my finder and click & drag the file, so it's not a copyright issue...besides, I tried dragging from itunes a song I've already used in garageband and it's not working either. I updated itunes yesterday...could this be the problem???
I haven't updated to iLife..to be honest, don't really know much about it, because every time I click on the "tell me more" tab, it says it can't redirect me to the page that has the info on it ....*Gahhh* frustrating! ...could there be some kind of plug-in or something missing? I'm not super-techy, but I can do enough to get me by...Any help you guys can provide me with would be greatly appreciated!!

I am also having the same problem. i can drag the files out of the music folders but I can not drag any file out of the itunes screen. The files are .mp3 and are in lowercase letters. I tried a recommended fix where the files were reconverted in iTunes, but trying conversions in both .mp3 and .aiff did not work. Also, trashing a certain preference file was recommended on a discussions board but that did not work either. Until there is a solution, I'll have to work in Audacity.

Bizarre problem trying to import .MTS (AVCHD) files into PSE7 Organizer

Hi
b Summary of problem:
*I recently upgraded to PSE 7 / PRE 7
*I am trying to import .MTS (AVCHD) files into the PSE7 Organizer
*I get a "...did not contain any supported file types..." error on attempted import
b HOWEVER...
*I can edit same footage in PRE7
*This footage is automatically added to the Organizer
*I can play this footage in the PSE7 organizer but generating thumbnails takes ages
*Camera: Sony HDR SR12 producing .MTS files (full 1920x1080i HD)
*PC: Intel Core i7 940 CPU, 6GB RAM, RADEON HD 4870 512MB
*OS: Vista 64 bit
b Detail:
I have recently upgraded my PRE/PSE bundle to ver 7 primarily because the new version of PRE boasts support for AVCHD.
Having installed the new software I quickly tried editing footage in PRE7 with video taken on my Sony HDR SR12 camera (footage taken in full 1920x1080i HD) and it works! Hoorah! I can now finally edit AVCHD footage in it's native format using PRE. Thank you Adobe!
But my joy was very shortlived because when I tried to import some other footage from the same batch into my PSE7 Video Catalog it wouldn't work. I got a pop up box containing the following error:
i "Nothing was imported. The file(s) or folder(s) selected to import did not contain any supported file types, or the files are already in the catalog."
Under this message is a list of the files that I tried to import. Next to each one there is a reason (it's the same reason for each clip):
i "Reason: The file is damaged or is a format that cannot be included in the Organizer."
To import files I use the following method: File / Get Photos and Videos / From Files and Folders
HOWEVER, the files that I imported directly into PRE7 in order to edit them have (surprise, surprise!) automatically been added PSE7 Organizer's Catalog. It takes a quite a while to generate a thumbnail for each clip but it does eventually do it and when it does I can play that footage in PSE7.
Just in case you're confused by this stage... If I try and manually add files to the PSE7 Organizer it doesn't work BUT if I edit that footage in PRE7 and then load the PSE7 Organizer I see the footage has been automatically added. This makes no sense whatsoever!
Am I doing something really stupid here? Why oh why will the PSE7 Organizer not import .MTS (AVCHD) files?!
NB: While searching for a solution to this problem I have, thanks to this Forum, found out about the K-Lite Codec Pack. I downloaded and installed the Basic pack v4.4.5 and now I can, at least, play my .MTS video files in Windows Media Player... I wish I had found out about that a couple of months ago because it would have saved me from buying Cyberlink PowerDVD 8!
Please someone help before I lose the plot.
Thanks
Patrick

Hi
I'd just like to add an update to this post.
b Summary:
*K-Lite Codec Pack clashes with Sony's Picture Motion Browser (PMB) software
*Analysis of video in Sony's PMB is well worth doing!
*You can Drag and Drop clips from Sony's PMB into PRE7
b Detail:
As you've probably gathered I have now settled on using Sony's Picture Motion Browser (PMB) to Catalog all my video. Sorry Adobe to talk about someone elses product but the Adobe Organizer just can't cope with AVCHD footage no matter how you manage to import it! It's far too sluggish and my PC has an Intel Core i7 940 CPU with 6GB RAM and a 10,000 RPM HDD!
Anyway, in my first post you'll have read me raving about the K-Lite Codec Pack but sadly I've had to uninstall it because it kept on causing PMB to crash. PMB runs much smoother and quicker WITHOUT that codec pack. Something about it clashed with PMB. The once agile PMB became sluggish and unresponsive.
Having now removed the codec pack PMB is back to being agile and generaly lovely.
To view AVCHD footage outside of PMB I have reverted to using Cyberlink's PowerDVD 8 - there's always a pregnant pause between double-clicking on the clip and it playing but that's the only drawback.
If you are going to use Sony's PMB for cataloging your video collection (and I recommend you do so BUT only if you have AVCHD footage - otherwise stick to Adobe's Organiser) then I can fully recommend "Analyzing" all of your footage. This takes time and a bit of patience because it kept stopping for no apparent reason but would readily start up again (without having to do anything else) BUT once it's done it'll reward you with the following:
*Filter on any combination of Scenery, People, Smiles - e.g. with a click of a button you can isolate footage that contains smiles, etc
*Face Search - if you select some or all of the footage in the right-hand pane it will then put a small thumbnail for all of the different faces in that selected footage in the bottom "Face Search" pane. If you then click on one of those thumbnails it will jump to the clip(s) that contain that face and grey out all the other clips
*Expand Videos - This tool is brilliant! In normal viewing mode you get a thumbnail of the video whether you're in Folder view, Calender view or Detail List view. If, however, you select "Expand Videos" from the tool bar it will show you a series of frames contained within that clip. You can choose from "Highlights" or various regular intervals (5 secs, 10 sec, 30 sec, 1 min, etc). The Highlights option does a pretty good job of picking out the significant changes within the clip
Lastly, I have discovered that you can drag a clip from Sony's PMB into PRE7. It won't let you put it directly onto the Timeline but it will let you drop it into the Project file list (found under the Edit tab).
I do hope that this info has helped others like me who are trying to get to grips with editing and cataloging AVCHD footage.

Use XSU to store in multiple tables.
"XSU can only store data in a single table. You can store XML across tables, however, by using the Oracle XSLT processor to transform a document into multiple documents and inserting them separately. You can also define views over multiple tables and perform insertions into the views. If a view is non-updatable (because of complex joins), then you can use INSTEAD OF triggers over the views to perform the inserts."

I can't import my iTunes files into pages, how can i fix the privileges problem?

when i try to import any mp3 file into a pages document, i get an access privileges error saying it is either corrupt, damaged or "can't be used" because I don't have access privileges. This has happened since I moved my iTunes library to an external drive. Anyone have any solutions? The privileges on both the library folder, and all its files are set to read and write for sharing and permissions.

If you do not have done so, set the "Ignore Ownership" flag on the external drive. YOu can set this flag from the "File > Get Info" panel for the drive.
How is your external drive formatted?
Can other applications open these mp3 files? QuickTime? Do they play in the Finder preview?
Do the filenames contain special charcters?

Error While Importing from EIF file into AW

Hi All,
I am facing the following error while importing from EIF file into AW using AWM as well as from sql prompt.
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-36786: (IOSEC04) File POCAW/abc.eif does not exist or cannot be accessed.
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_AW", line 42

i have already created the directory pocaw.
i have done the following steps :
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY POCAW as 'D:\Olap_POC\export';
GRANT all ON DIRECTORY POCAW to PUBLIC;
execute dbms_aw.execute ('aw create ''POC_AW''');
execute dbms_aw.execute('cda pocaw');
execute dbms_aw.execute('dtb attach POC_AW rw');
execute dbms_aw.execute('import all from eif file ''/abc.eif'' dfns update ');
any idea or thought would be appreciable.
thanks n advance
anwar

execute dbms_aw.execute('import all from eif file''/abc.eif'' dfns update ');
Maybe one of the following file names could help
(have never tried it):
''abc.eif''
''POC_AW\abc.eif''Yes,
you don't need the slash. CDA is like setting a default directory.

Is there a way to import large XML files into HANA efficiently are their any data services provided to do this?

1. Is there a way to import large XML files into HANA efficiently?
2. Will it process it node by node or the entire file at a time?
3. Are there any data services provided to do this?
This for a project use case i also have an requirement to process bulk XML files, suggest me to accomplish this task

Hi Patrick,
I am addressing the similar issue. "Getting data from huge XMLs into Hana."
Using Odata services can we handle huge data (i.e create schema/load into Hana) On-the-fly ?
In my scenario,
I get a folder of different complex XML files which are to be loaded into Hana database.
Then I gotta transform & cleanse the data.
Can I use oData services to transform and cleanse the data ?
If so, how can I create oData services dynamically ?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thank you.

How to Import Vector Identified Files into Photoshop Without Losing Quality

Hello,
I am creating a series of music worksheets on photoshop. I have created some music scores in a music writing software called Sibelius 7. It has the capability to export the sheet music graphics in the following forms: .pdf, .eps, .bmp, .tiff, .png, .svg .
However, I have tried to 'place' each of them into my photoshop file to see which one will work. But on saving the photoshop document as a .pdf with any of the graphics formats, the vector quality of the image has been lost, as it pixelates on zooming in. I have also tried to import an .svg file into adobe illustrator to save it as an .ai file and then import that into photoshop, but the image is again pixelated.
I don't really know what is happening, as I am essentially trying to import a file that is a vector (or at least does not pixelate on zooming) into photoshop, hoping for the same qualities to be retained, but it is being lost for some reason.
What should I do?
Thank you.

Thank you for your reply. I opened the vectored pdf into illustrator. I tested illustrator by saving that document as a new pdf and the vector quality was still retained. I the following images, I copied and pasted the vector from illustrator into photoshop. However, on saving this new photoshop document as a pdf, it does not retain the vector format, as you can see with the pixelation that occurs when zooming in on an object.
Thank you.

"Input contract violation" error message when trying to import a .wav file into AE?

I am trying to import a .wav file into AE and keep getting an "input contract violation" message from the program followed by it shutting down. If it means anything, I bought the song online, but it has been paid for and I downloaded the .wav file after my purchase. Any idea of why this may be happening? Are there any particular settings which may be mandatory on the project timeline to import a 3min song? Thank you!

YOu have not provided any system info, not told us what version of AE you use, your audio setting, what specifics in the audio file and a million other things. See how it may not be possible for anyone to tell you anything beyond "Your computter sucks!" ???

Cannot import a .mov file into the library

I am trying to import a .mov file into my library so I can
create a .fla file. Every time I try to import it into the library
using the import wizard, it starts the importing process and always
quits not quite two minutes into the process. It then returns me to
the front page of the import wizard. I have done this before with
absolutely no problems.
The one thing that I am wondering about is the size of this
particular .mov file. It is 377MB. Do you think this may be part of
my problem? Thank you in advance for anyone's input or
suggestions!

I would consider 10mb to be too big for a flash file. Even if
it was CD
I would load it dynamically to avoid performance problem.
377mb is out of the question way beyond flash ability to
maintain stable
performance, not just the final output but the IDE itself.
