Insert audio file

I thought this would be as simple as Insert > Media >
Plugin but I am trying to insert an audio file on a web page, that
will play when the page is opened up. The file (*.wma) opens up in
Real Player from my computer. But when I link to it on the web page
I get a message that no plug in is available. The web page can be
seen at
http://www.hopkinsandporter.com/portfolio/green/green.shtml.
Can a web page play the *.wma format?

It plays for me. Most likely, you need a windows media
plug-in for your
browsers. Not all people will have this plug-in installed on
their system.
To reach the widest audience, you might want to consider
using MP3 music
files with a Flash player like the Wimpy player button.

PowerPoint 2010 Hangs when trying to insert audio file

I am trying to insert audio into a PowerPoint slide program. I have done this quite often with previous versions of PowerPoint on a Dell computer, so I don't think it is user error - although I am open to the possibility - anything to get this fixed!
Details:
Lenovo T520 4239CTO, Bios: 8AET52WW, Win 7 Prof 64-bit, Microsoft Office Prof 2010, PowerPoint 2010 32-bit version 14.0.6112.5000.
When I try to insert an audio file (MP3) I see a progress bar at the bottom (PowerPoint is inserting media) but it never progresses, and I also see a pop-up frame with this msg: "Inserting media. To cancel press the ESC key." The system hangs - I must use the Control-alt-delete to get the task manager in order to stop the application.
I have tried turing off all Norton Internet Security - no difference.
All recommended and most optional updates have been done from Lenovo and Microsoft, using their update service.
I suspect that even though I can't find out what is causing the hang, that it might be related to security software. The music files were downloaded from Amazon, they are MP3 format, and should theoretically be okay in a PowerPoint slide show.
I would be most grateful for any help resolving this issue, since PowerPoint is basically useless to me unless I can insert various media files.
Solved!

Why inserting audio creates a gap in my video ?

Hi,
I try to insert a short audio mp3 bakcground music in my work.
I try to insert it several times because it is short and I need it repeat.
So I insert it once at begining of my work. When I insert it a second time, it will create a gap between the end of previous audio piece, and its own end.
Why on earth does it does this ? Why audio can break video ? This turns me mad, please tell me how can I insert audio files without destroying my video ?
Thanks,
Uglook

Are you trying to put it onto the Audio 1 track? If so after the insert (that creates the gap) you will need to break the video/audio link by right-clicking the audio track and selecting 'Unlink Audio and Video'. With the link broken you can then move just the video clips to fill the gap.
If you are not already using the 'Soundtrack' track for something else that would be the better place to add your mp3 clip.

PPT 2013 Conversion: WMA Audio Files

Hello-
I do a number of narrated PowerPoint conversions into SWF-created Captivate files. With the recent upgrade to PowerPoint 2013 for Microsoft PCs, I've noticed that the narrated audio is no longer being converted on Captivate's end because it is WMA format. Do you know of any setting within PowerPoint 2013 or Captivate that will allow WMA files to be allowed or converted to a whitelisted format?
Thanks,
~Kyle~

Hello Kyle,
Welcome to Adobe Forums!
I am afraid that you can only insert audio files with .wav and.mp3 extensions .
If you want to insert your .wma format files you can use Adobe Media Encoder to convert it to mp3 or .wav.
Adobe Media Encoder gets installed with Captivate.
Thanks and Regards

Icon size for audio file insert on a PDF page.

Acrobate X V10.1.9 Windows 7.
I wish to insert an audio file on a pdf page. I select "multimedia", "sound". Get the window to select the file. Once selected I then find that I cannot size the icon that appears on the page (click to play). The two fields are grayed out. If I click "OK" it results in a very large "click to play" icon. I cannot resize the icon on the page..
Does this function require C++? Have been getting an error message on PC startup about something being in error. I click OK and all seems to be working ok.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Joe

You can crop it, but the size will not change to letter. However, after cropping, you can print with expand to fit page selected. If you like you can expand this to a new PDF using print, though not generally the recommended approach. Do you have any idea how it was reduced in the first place? If so, have you tried the reverse process?

Insert an audio file (MP3) into a BLOB

I want to insert an audio file (MP3) into a db table.
i have declared the db field to be blob.
can anybody tell me what java code to write to insert an audio obj into db blob field.
thanxx in advance.
Raheel

I have never tried an MP3 file but have done images.
I assume the same type of methods would work.
Try looking at some of these forum answers.

Inserting multiple audio files?

I'm trying to import 2 separate video and audio files to join them up, however it won't let me insert the second audio track, however the second video track goes in fine?

Welcome to our community
Captivate allows audio at three levels.
Background - Plays for duration of project
Slide - Plays when slide plays
Object - Plays when object appears
What you need to do if you want multiple audio files to play is to insert objects and associate audio with the objects. If you don't wish to see the object and all you want to do is hear the audio, use a Transparent Caption with no text or a Highlight Box with no color or a Click Box with no pause and no action when clicked.
Cheers... Rick

Is there some way I can insert and play these additional audio files, accessible via separate button

I am converting a CD-ROM course to an online format with that software.
In the majority of slides created I have used the Import Audio function to insert a primary audio file containing important curriculum information.
This file typically activates the moment you open the slide.
So far so good.
However, in many slides I also need to insert some secondary audio files.
While the Import Audio function permits me to splice several files into one, this isn't what I want.
Instead, I need to insert one or more additional audio files that can be activated independently via separate buttons on a given slide.
I can in fact do this with the Insert Button function, but in the process a Windows Media Player file opens when I convert the project into HTML.
My question:
Is there some way I can insert and play these additional audio files, accessible via separate buttons, without creating and opening a Windows Media Player file?
Thanks

It is hard to assess the situation without sitting at your computer and having a look myself. First, if you're seeing space savings I doubt all your files are a compressed format. Frequently if you try compressing a compressed format file such as AAC (don't confuse with AIFF) you will actually find the file gets larger because there is overhead to compression and if it cannot compress any more then you end up just adding overhead on top of no savings. Second, normally if you zip the iTunes library it would basically make it inaccessible to iTunes and iTunes would make you a brand new library or at least flag all your tracks as missing (as you are seeing ain part).
I don't know what computer you are running, which operating system, which version of iTunes. Unless they have done something radical in Lion in terms of letting you zip your iTunes folder and still have it functional, you either didn't zip the whole thing, or... I don't know. One scenario is that somehow your media have been split up and you have them in several locations. One isn't really part of your library except for 80 tracks, so when you compressed it (and I still am puzzled by the compression unless it was AIFF files you were no longer using), it didn't really make much difference to the playability. Then you have an untouched library elsewhere.
Use the Reveal In Finder command to see where some of those problem files are located vs. where the playable files are located.

How can I see previously stored tunes no longer on my computer? Where are iCloud audio files?

Maybe my question has an answer too "obvious" for me to see it. But lately I've become aware of tunes that, for one reason or another, are not showing in my iMac's iTunes program. I went to System Preferences and clicked on "iCloud." Immediately, I saw how to check iCloud for the following files and documents: Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Safari (not sure what this category could be for--seeing what was on the web at some prior point in history?), Photo Stream, Documents & Data, Back to My Mac, Find My Mac.
In other words, going to iCloud appears to reveal categories for all of your iCloud content EXCEPT your music files. I know about iTunes Match, and I think I like it, now that I've gotten used to a few of its quirks. But certainly there are times when the owner of downloaded, commercial audio files (i.e. Tunes) will not have them on his computer. And certainly there must be a way for me to see what I've previously stored in the Cloud--if only to remind myself of the music I've purchased and have available to me.
I may be missing something about the whole iCloud concept. Is there a way for me to see tunes I've previously stored in the iCloud but no longer have on my computer? (I'm always careful not to delete tunes from my iTunes program unless I see 2 or more identical files appearing on my computer).
Thanks for any directions to the iCloud musical holdings / archives--or clarification of any misunderstandings.
Cap
(I see that I'm currently running OS 10.8.2. I have only 500 gigs of memory, and my music collection is so larg, I'm almost dependent on being able to access songs in the iCloud. Next time, I'll certainly pony up for the largest memory Apple offers on an iMac.)

They are not showing up in Lightroom at all. I already deleted them.
When I try to import them again into Lightroom it wants to add another 2012 folder to wherever I am trying to insert them and then it does the month/day folder when it already has the month folder it should automatically go into and not be adding a seperate 2012 folder first.
I can't even get it to do the above right now. Now all it does is it wants to make this seperate 2012 folder with the month/day folders but has little boxes beside each folder showing that there are no images to import. The images do show up on the import screen but they are all darkened and unchecked. When I click the proper folder to import them they come on bright and have little boxes checked, but that lasts for less than a second before it decides they are not new. They are new images, I deleted them all out of Lightroom, and probably missed deleting some through Lightroom but instead deleted them straight from the folder outside of Lightroom. This is what is probably causing me such grief and I have found nothing in my searches to tell me how to correct this. *sigh*

How can I import several small audio files to create one BIG file in iTunes

I have ONE cd with THREE audio stories contained in EIGHTEEN audio files (6 files make each story). I also have an iMac. Not sure if they're mp3 or not, but they play on computers and car radios.
How can I take this CD, whisper abracadabra and end up with three files (each with one story)? Don't need to re-burn a CD, but just need to get them on to an iPod.
I've tried inserting the CD and using the right mouse click/info/options to select 6 files and identify them as a 'gapless album' - but this did not link the files together.
Any help you can offer would be appreciated. I have read pages & pages of topics, but could not find this particular issue.

Insert the CD.
Don't Import it yet.
Select the CD in iTunes.
Select the consecutive tracks uyou want joined as one file.
Go to menu Advanced > Join CD tracks.
Do this for each set of tracks you want as one file.
Then Import the CD.
If the tracks are already in iTunes, no need to import them again.
Use this -> Join Together
"Join Together automates the process of joining the files of selected iTunes tracks together with QuickTime and exporting them as a single AAC Music or Audiobook file/track. Optionally, you can then create a "chapterized" audio file of the exported AAC file with pointers to the individually joined tracks."

How can I make an mp audio file of a video clip that I'm working on in iMovie?

I have a video clip residing within an iMovie project. I want to create an audio file of this to take into Audacity so I can make cleaner audio edits (pulling up audio, deleting extraneous audio, etc) to insert as voice over in my movie project. iMovie is not sophisticated enough to do this. I don't see an easy way to "export as MP3" or other audio file. Am I missing something? Thank you.
