Import with new macbook Pro

im using the latest itunes with my new macbook pro, and having a huge pain importing many of my cds. this isn't a right protection problem. many cds keep stalling out on certain tracks as if they are majorly scratched, yet i see no visible evidence of damage on any of them. i've decreased the quality of the import, turned off error correction, etc. i also tried Max but it too stalls out. is this a problem with the internal drive? is there a different program i can use? on my old pc i'd use windows media player when itunes couldnt read a track, then import into itunes.
thanks

yes that's what happens to me. the program (itunes and Max) both stall out, i have to force quit.
i am hesitant to send the computer back, just because that makes me very nervous.
I can import songs from cds, just not all the time. older cds, cds that are potentially scratched stall the programs out. however, the scratching is so minor that i can't identify it visually. i read up the help files and it looks like both programs are set up to recover very damaged cds, so why not cds that dont even look damanged?
to recap: i can import from pristine disks. i can import selected tracks from certain disks. the system stalls out on certain tracks.
i'm looking for a way to import those tracks. (i keep a lot of audio books in my system and missing a track ruins it all!) any help?

  • Facebook problems with new macbook pro.

    Facebook problems with new macbook pro. I can't publish photo albums to timeline. I can't share items onto timeline. Photos I'm tagged in don't appear on my timeline. Any help?

    Yes! Been living in a hellish nightmare since Sept-Oct. Unlike you, however, Apple has been of no help. They say the iPad is unhackable, plist and crash reports are none of my business and who understands them anyway, their route tracing apps are probably not reliable. The best they could do was wipe the iPad clean. Lost photos they said would be in the cloud....
    Almost immediately was back in somebody's VPN, their remote controller, video, audio, working. Got the purple buddy for the first time today. I have been invaded, my iPad no longer feels like my own, I have lost thanksgiving, Christmas, new year trying to track down the invaders, signed up for a Cisco course, set/reset passwords.
    I don't know who else to contact... Or what next to do.
    I've read similar frustration in other posts, scattered around the support communities. Yours is the only one that has worked toward a solution.
    How did you get anyone at apple to look at your logs and acknowledge there is a problem?
    Would be happy for a suggestion on how to proceed. Already been the apple store genius and tech on phone route.

  • WD External Hard drive not working with new Macbook Pro

    I have recently upgraded to a new Macbook Pro and when connecting a WD 1 TB Passport external hard drive, it doesn't appear on the MBP, but when I connect it to my old Macbook running 10.5.8, it appears normally. Is this a problem with formatting or an issue because it is USB 2.0...
    Any help appreciated as I have a lot of data on the hard drive and would like to be able to use it with my new MBP.

    I'm on Lion, with similar issues with two WD external HD. But what I found fixed the problem was to:
    1. go to the manufacturer's website (in this case Western Digital),
    2. locate my external HD, download the download.
    For instance, I downloaded the WD Drive Utilities for Mac (for My Passport for Mac USB 3.0):
    http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?groupid=219&sid=157&lang=en
    Install the downloaded app.
    3. Plug in external (this part, I think is important) directly into your tower or laptop (as opposed to through a USB multi-plug extender). Possibly this is because you access more power?
    [I'm trying to remember in which order everything happened. But I think at this point the external hard drive mounted]
    4. Install the software that is found on the external HD (in my case, it was a brand new device, so that had never been installed).
    5. Run "WD Drive Utilities" and run diagnostics.
    6. Test to see if it holds. Unmount the External HD. Unplug. Replug in and see if it mounts.
    Note: I have not yet tested to see if plugging in the external somewhere other than directly into the tower also works. But I think the main problem is getting it to mount the first time and installing the software. That's what I think.

  • 17" Cinema Display doesn't work with new MacBook Pro

    I have used a 17" Cinema Display with a MacBook Pro without problems for the last year. I just bought a new MacBook Pro and a Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter. Hooked it up and no display. Reconnected to my olf MBP without the Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter and it still works great. Any thoughts?

    I have the same machine and the same drive (for about 6 months) they work fine.
    The first suspect is the internal SATA cable, replace it.

  • Using Time Machine Backup Drive with NEW Macbook Pro

    I just got a new Macbook Pro. I migrated from my old MacBook Pro. Now I want to use my Time Machine Disk with this new machine.
    When I connect the external drive, and select back up now, it says there is not enough space (due to the fact this is a new machine and it wants to backup the entire thing)
    Also, when I go into the TimeMachine, it doesn't show me anything past today. . . all of my backups are not displayed over the past year. . .
    How do I make it so that the external drive displays all my old backups. . . ??
    Thank you for your help.

    Turn off TM or set the backup drive to null. Rename your computer in Sharing preferences to the same computer name of your old computer. Turn TM back on and reselect the backup drive. TM will behave as you expect. Of course if the file dates on the new machine are all changed since the migration, then TM will correctly assume that they require backing up. You will then find that there will not be sufficient space on the drive for the new backups. If this occurs then you should simply erase the backup drive and start your TM backup anew.

  • ITunes match isn't working with new Macbook Pro

    Hello everyone,
    I have had iTunes Match for years with no problems on any device mobile or otherwise. I just purchased a new Macbook Pro w/Retina. I unboxed, powered up, and updated all software. I set up the Macbook with my one and only apple ID and logged into iTunes with the same ID.  All of my purchased music is available, however when I go to turn on iTunes match I get this error: "THIS COMPUTER IS ALREADY ASSOCIATED WITH AN APPLE ID. You can use iTunes Match on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 90 days.". After this I have no other option but to close the window. I have tried logging in and out and restarting the computer but have had no success. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • IPhone with new MacBook Pro - phone not recognized by iTunes

    So, I got a new MacBook Pro and connected my iPhone to sync it with iTunes. But the iPhone isn't being recognized.
    Anyone know what steps to take to get it to recognize the phone to sync? There are no error messages. Just a phone that doesn't seem to want to sync.
    I checked the phone by plugging it into another lap top, and it gets recognized right away, so I'm thinking it's related to the latest iTunes or the MacBook Pro.
    Thanks!

    Went to the Genius Bar, The tech decised it was a bad logic board. I got a new computer to replace a week old one. After going through setting it up again, I have the same issue. System Profiler sees that an iPhone is connected, but not iTunes. I can not sync to the new MBP. At the moment, I am syncing to my old MBP, just so I have the iPhone set up as I had it.
    BTW, if you go through the "iTunes does not see iPhone" suggestions and enter DFU (restore mode) your iPhone gets bricked. But it is recoverable by using a different computer. I am currently trying a NEW install of the OS on the i7, but I suspect a hardware/driver interaction problem. I have no hopes until 10.6.4 arrives in a month or so.

  • Toneport UX2 not working with new MacBook Pro 10.6.2 Snow Leopard

    I do some casual recording using a Line 6 Toneport UX2. Previously i was recording on an older Mac Mini. Recently i upgraded to a new Macbook Pro (Snow Leopard 10.6.2)
    The new Macbook is not responding at all when i plug in my toneport, all the software for the toneport is installed.
    I think the problem is that my toneport is not compatible with an intel Mac. Is this right?
    And if it is can i fix this problem with some kind of upgrade for my toneport software(gearbox)?
    And if there is no solution can someone recomend a new audio interface for me to get? Under $200.

    I use a Toneport UX2 with my intel iMac. I never had the problem you are describing while using Gearbox with GB. However your problem sounds very similar to one I have experienced when I loaded up Line 6 Pod Farm. I discovered that when I start Pod Farm and get the message you mentioned, if I quit Pod Farm then immediately start it again, everything communicates just fine and I'm back in business. I would like to see a fix for this glitch, but for now I just start twice and then get to work.
    Give it a try! I am curious to know if you are in the same boat as me.
    As a side note, Recently Line 6 offered Pod Farm for no charge to registered owners of a Line 6 interface such as ours. You may want to check it out. It gives you some more options to play with.

  • Cable for importing to new MacBook Pro

    Could you please tell me what kind of cable connection (DV interface cable?) I should purchase for importing movies from my Panasonic (PV-GS83) to my brand new MacBook Pro? The one I have for my iBook G4 no longer works because the MacBook Pro doesn't have the same D-shaped connection port. (Sorry for the inadequate terminology.) Thanks!

    excellent discription, like that
    your MBpro has a fw800 connector, the old cable is a fw400..
    so, you need a firewire 800/4 pin cable.. any electronic supplier, ~10-15$ ...
    in case, they don't offer any, there're fw400/fw800 adapters.. you can use your old cable

  • Reformating external hard drive for use with new MacBook Pro

    I'm trying to figure out how to use an existing external hard drive (formatted for a Powermac G4) with my new MacBook Pro. I understand that the file formats are different and that I need to erase the hard drive and reformat it with a GUID partition, but how does one do that?
    I've already erased the drive with disk utility (using the old Powermac) and connected it to my MacBook with the hope that it would be recognized. No dice, alas. It doesn't mount at all.
    Any suggestions on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    My external harddrives all work just fine with the MacBook Pro. You shouldn't have to reformat anything. I think if you did then it would not be backwards compatable with the older systems. Stick it back in your old computer and try to mount it again, repair permissions shutdown your macbook pro and connect the external drive then reboot

  • External Monitor (HDMI Projector) not recognized in AE CC or AE CS6 with New Macbook Pro

    Got a really tough problem that maybe someone can help me find a solution for.  I had an old Macbook Pro (2009-ish) that I was using in conjunction with AE and my HDMI Projector to do projection mapping work.  The laptop motherboard wore out recently (not related, I don't think) but now I've bought a new Macbook Pro and am trying to use the HDMI out to the projector as my external monitor in After Effects (I've tried both CC and CS5.5 and CS6). Under Video Preview it's not showing up as an option to send to (the choices are Computer Monitor Only or Firewire). 
    I am in a real mess as I am supposed to do a show this evening with a setup I've done lots of times with my old Macbook and AE, and now can't do it at all. I have to be able to have the projector receive the AE feed - and nothing I've done so far has helped. The system sees the projector, so why doesn't AE??  I can't just slide the program window into the projector's window space and enlarge - it has to be exactly 1920x1080 in order for me to align correctly.
    If there are any Adobe folks lurking this morning I would CERTAINLY appreciate your input, as well as anyone else who might have had similar issues. This should work, it should be a no-brainer. Right now I'm running a new OOTB Apple Macbook Pro with HDMI out, and the latest version of AE CC with all updates performed. Please, please help!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Bill

    After Effects does not come with components for HDMI output.
    Your other computer must have had additional components installed that added this functionality.
