Importing audio CD

Help! I have just cleared my ipod (20GB) so that my son can have it. I created a new account and registered the ipod so that it has its new library. The first CD imported perfectly but with the rest I click on the import button and the import icon clicks on in organge momentarily and then disappears. I have tried loads of CD's and always the same problem. I've even cleaned them. Can someone help?
Thanks Gary

We'd better check on the possibility from the following document:

Follow up question. importing audio

Hello,
thanks to all that responded to my question about importing audio from itunes to FCP5. I finally got it onto my timeline, but before I did that I burned it to a cd, and used that to import it to FCP. Probably more steps than necessary, but I finally was able to get into the timeline that way. THE PROBLEM HOWEVER, is that the audio sounds scratchy, or slightly staticy (wierd word) I burned it in 48kHz and 16 bit AIFF,as you all recommended, but it still sounds crappy. Anymore suggestions?? Could disc space be the problem?
I have a huge project going and only about 10 gigs of space
THANKS,
Jen

When you buy a song, or a CD, you bought the right to listen to that song to your hearts content. Make as many copies as you want, but only for YOU. Your song. Play it at a party..fine.
But put marry that song with video, and you have entered new territory. To do that you need to buy additional rights. Just like you'd need to buy rights if you play music at a wedding, or play music for people to listen to when they are on HOLD at your business.
Adding it to family video is "technically" illegal. Will the FBI hunt you down...well, after the government went after a lady for owing $1.16 in taxes by siezing her house, I wouldn't be surprised.

: how can I import mp3s from my gmail account into my iTunes application so that I can import audio for recording into GarageBand ?

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.

Import audio book to itunes but it won't sync to my ipod

I am at a complete loss. I have been importing audio books from the public library to itunes and then putting them on my ipod for months. All of a sudden the books won't sync to my ipod. Songs work ok, but my audio books don't. The little sync icon spins and the itunes screen says it is updating but it only lasts for a few seconds and the book is not on my ipod. I have done everything I can think of including restoring my ipod back to the original settings which lost everything. I don't know what else to do.

Might you find the answer here?

Importing audio from CD-where does it go?

I tried importing audio from a cd tonight for the first time, from within the audio window. Where does the file go? After I quit the song and tried to open again, the file could not be found. I tried importing again. When I put the CD in iTunes opened up and somehow renamed the CD "John Ford Radio"!? Anyway, I figured out that once the file was in the audio window I used the "move" function to copy the file to the song folder.
Is there an easier way to do this?

If you import audio from a CD, it stays on the CD. You probably saw a message something like "Insufficient privileges" which means that the OS recognised that it couldn't write the calculated wave overview back to the CD.
The best method is to copy it to your hard disk and check the Ownerships and Permissions within the Finder info. You need to have Read/Write on any audio file.
Finally, when saving your work, always use Save as Project since that will create a single folder with all your files nicely tucked away.

Won't Import Audio

This seems like a very simple thing... but I can't import audio in GarageBand 3.
This is audio that was recorded on another computer (a PC using Adobe Audition, if that matters).
I've tried all different formats: mp3, wav, aiff
Nothing.
These files play fine in iTunes. I can even play them in GarageBand's Media Browser.
For some reason, when I try to drag-and-drop them into the timeline, nothing happens. (Normally, you get that green "+" sign before you drop the audio.) I don't get an error message. It just does nothing.
Any ideas?

do this anyway:

Image does not appear when publishing...does it matter where you import audio?

I have an image on my slide and when I preview the slide it appears correctly, when I hit F10 to preview next 5 sldies or publish file it does not appear. I have imported audio to the slide not to an object. I am wondering if this matters? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you...

Rod -
Cant really explain this one, but the visible check box was checked... I then unchecked it and checked it again, now it seems to be working.....
Weird, but at least it is working.

Pro cs3 not importing audio in avi files

ok it seems for some reason that my cs 3 is not importing audio in my avi files the video channel imports but no audio anyone know a reason why this is please

AVI is but a "wrapper." This ARTICLE will give you much more background, plus direct you on finding out what is inside that wrapper.
It might be as simple as a setting change, but conversion will likely be the path to take.
Good luck, and let us know what G-Spot (in the article) tells you about that/those file(s).

Adobe Presenter 9 and PowerPoint 2013 - Missing Import Audio from PowerPoint button

I am only able to intermitantly use the Import button in Adobe Presenter 9 to Import Audio from PowerPoint. Why would I be able to do it on some presentations but not all? I thought it was an audio conversion issue but even when I convert the audio (when prompted by PowerPoint) it doesn't always allow me to import it.

I have found a solution if the original PowerPoint was a ppt file, follow these steps:
File > Save As a pptx file
Close PowerPoint (this helps with not corrupting the file)
Re-open the pptx file
File > Convert
Save with a new file name (this helps with not corrupting the file)
You should now have the Import from Presentation button if you go to the Presenter tab and click the Import button
I have not found a solution for pptx files yet.

Flash with CS3 - Mac - Importing Audio

Greetings,
Creative Suite 3, OS-X (Possibly Leopard as well, it's
dual-boot).
We're working on our first few flash animations, nothing
heavy or anything. Every time we try to import audio (MP3 or WAV),
the computer tries for a while (shows the little clock icon and a
status bar) then displays a message that says, "One or more files
were not imported because there were problems reading them."
We did some searching and found some info about what Flash
does and doesn't like with reference to audio here:
http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_16235
and here:
http://www.technowledgebase.com/2007/06/20/flash-wont-import-mp3-or-wav-files/
OK, it's a wav file, so we tried saving it as PCM style wav
file. We followed a suggestion for using WavePad (This is a mac,
not Windows) making sure the file was PCM here:
http://nch.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=4005
Unfortunately, even with it saved as PCM (Though we're not
sure if the sample rate may be part of it), we still get the error
message.

Why can't I import audio content from a Pana LX5 MTS file?

Hi,
Awesome as the new video capability is in CS6 (the ability to add image filters is to die for!), I have encountered a problem.
I can import the video component from a Panasonic LX5 .MTS AVCHD Lite video file. But the audio isn't included and I can't bring the audio content into an audio track by importing separately.
When I import H264 .MOV, taken with my Canon 7D, audio is included in the video import and I can also import audio from another, similar file to an audio track.
Is there some special trick involved with AVCHD Lite format video? Has anyone else succeeded in importing audio from an .MTS file?
Kind regards,
Joachim Smith

You aren't the only person: also fails for me, Windows 7 64-bit. Audio doesn't play in CS6 Bridge either, although audio plays in Windows Media, so I assume system has correct codec installed.
I think this might be a bug, here is a .mts file for others (or Adobe) to test with: http://www.newae.com/00012.MTS

Imported audio files are repeating same audio on objects in a slide

Hi
I can't find anything here that mentions the problem I am having.
I am using Captivate 4. And Neospeechs desktop VoiceText program to record audio files outside of Captivate. They are saved as WAV files, then I import the audio into Captivate.
I have various objects on a slide. For example, I have six text Rollover Captions. When you roll over them, some text is displayed. I have attached my audio files to these rollover objects. So, I would have audio1.wav, audio2.wav, audio3.wav etc and these play when you roll over the captions.
The issue I am having, is that when I Publish or Preview the project, sometimes the wrong audio file is playing upon rollover. Usually the first couple of caption/file combinations will work, so I get audio1.wav for caption1 and audio2.wav for caption2, but then say for captions 3,4,5,6 I am still getting audio1.wav playing!
I have doubled checked everything and the correct audio files are attached to the captions. And they all play correctly in Edit view.
I've just noticed this has happened again in a different Captivate 4 project, where I have about 6 lines of Text Animation, with an audio file for each text animation. They have been distributed across the timeline so that the text animations do not overlap, and yet I am still hearing imported audio files repeated.
If anyone can help to shed any light on this, i'd be grateful, as I'm totally stumped!
thanks
Lolly

Have you got the correct selection buttons at the bottom left of the Files panel enabled under Sort by:?

The audio file is not recognized by Logic. Can't import audio files?

Hi,
The audio files are on my desktop. Logic 9.1.1 will not recognize them and gives me this message when I try to drag and drop OR Import Audio File OR use Audio Bin.
As far as I know, I am using wave files (extension .wav). So what could be the problem. Here's a picture of how the files look on my desktop.
The regular silver and blue iTunes icons look like this when I Get Info:
The black iTunes icons look like this when I Get Info:
Importantly, the black iTunes (only 2 out of the 18 audio files) are the ones that actually import. Does it have something to do with the fact that it shows under "More Info > Audio Channels 1" vs. the silver and blue iTunes .wav files (which do NOT have this)?
Furthermore, here is the process I used to get the audio files in the first place. On my PC, I exported audio files from my Ableton Live project onto a thumbdrive. I copied the audio files from my thumbdrive to my Mac. Maybe this had something to do with it.
Also, as you can see, under Sharing and Permissions > there is only "read and write" for all names, so it's not a permissions thing.
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.
+Can you play them as Preview (select in Finder, hit spacebar)?+ No. The black iTunes icons play with no sound and the silver and blue iTunes icons do not even come up in Preview at all.
+Will iTunes play them?+ Only the black iTunes files (2 out of the 18). When I click on a silver and blue icon'd file, it will not even open in iTunes.
why on the desktop? it was just a temporary thing. I was not able to pull them into my Audio Bin. I tried what you suggested. I put the files in the Audio Files folder of my project. When I go to open them from within Logic by Import Audio File, they are visible but greyed out. I don't use the desktop except for testing stuff like you do.
+How was the thumb drive formatted? FAT32 or other DOS-format, or Mac OS Extended (HFS)?
+the extension is not where apps look to recognize an audio file format, it is the header data. Some audio programs can read RAW audio files, but more about that after your reply to this one.+ It is formatted MS-DOS (FAT 32).
(*I wrote all this stuff above while I was working and waiting for the PC to write to my thumbdrive again*******finally I got everything to show up.
I loaded the files again from the thumbdrive. This time they were all in the black iTunes format, and I put them directly in the Audio Files folder like you suggested. After some doing everything works fine. Weird.
Thanks!

Import audio has no effect

I have Captivate 5 v5.0.1.624. I started a project as I usually do and in some slides I add a MP3 file by pressing F6, all worked perfectly.
However after adding some background music it seems that I cannot import MP3s anymore. When choosing Import audio I can select a MP3 file but then nothing happens. The audio is not added to the slide, and no error messages or warnings.
I tried to remove the background audio, restart Captivate, select different MP3 files, but nothing help, I still have the same problem.
I am completely stuck now, so any help is deeply appreciated.
//Paolo

Hello Paolo and welcome to the forum,
Could you try a small new project to test if you are able there to insert background audio and afterwards slide/object audio?
It is indeed possible that the CP-preferences have been corrupted, as suggested in the other answer, but it is also possible that just this file has somewhere a corrupt slide(s) or objects. That is why it could be useful to try a new project.

App to import audio from vinyl or cassette to Mac

I would like to import audio from my vinyl and cassette collection to my iMac.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a reasonably priced App which will do this successfully?
Any help would be appreciated.

Just tried this again. I may be missing something with the options in the dialog box which states the following defaults:
Format: ZIP
Method: Normal
Exclude Mac Resource forks (selected) - don't understand what that means?
Delete files after compression - not selected.
At the foot of the dialog box it states "Drag files to RarGenie in the dock"! Not sure what that means either.
Please don't spend any more time on this if you don't have an easy answer. I was really hoping to hear from someone who had used an available App in the App Store which they had found easy to use and not too expensive and which could be used with an appropriate hardware device.
