Is there an easy way to remove audio track from .mp4

Guys
Wondered if anybody knows of a way to take a .mp4 file with a silent audio track exported and remove that audio track altogether without having to reconvert the video in AME- just deleting the (silent) audio track
Have lots of files that need this and was looking for a way to do this without going back and reexporting all the clips the hard way
Any thoughts much appreciated-- (I have access to both Windows 7 and WIndows XP pro 64 bit)
Thanks
Tony

Thanks Jim
I figured that would work but for some reason the resulting files did not play correctly--Alternatively I used Mpegstreamclip -opened the video I wanted to erase audio track from--- clicked on "edit--delete audio track" then clicked "save as" and this finally accomplished what I was trying to do--Now have a copy of the .mp4 file wo audio
Thanks for all your help--Hope this thread helps someone in the future
Peace
Tony

Is there an easy way to eliminate duplicate tracks from iTunes on a mac?

All of a sudden I have over 6,500 duplicate tracks in my iTunes. Not entire albums but many tracks from an album are duplicated. Is there an easy way to get rid of these tracks or do I have to do this one by one? Also why would this be happening? I have "Keep iTunes Media Organized" checked as well as "Copy files to iTunes when adding to library".

It is hard to say why. iTunes is unlikely to do this all its own and there is probably something you did like add a folder that is not part of the current media collection thinking it needed adding, but it had already been added in the past.
There is no simple, universal panacea for duplicates. You can try some of the suggestions below.

Frankly, I would do it manually. As you can see from turingtest2's post, some duplicates are not really duplicates and I would rather do it manually than discover that a script had removed my only copy of a file (yes, I have backups but I may not notice for a year or so a file is no longer there, by which time I would have overwritten the backup because I do not have drive space for storing a year's worth of weeky iTunes backups tens of GB in size).
I would also review how you add media to iTunes. It should not be producing all that many duplicates.

Is there an easy way to remove duplicates in my library?

Hi there, since I first started using my ipod, I've had a new laptop. Having finally figured out (with your help!) how to move the songs from my ipod to the library on my new laptop, I did the transfer but it's duplicated loads of the tracks.

Is there an easy way to remove photos from iPhoto in the organizer?

I had been using iPhoto, but quit when I started using Photoshop Elements. With version 9, it imported not only photos in my pictures but those in iPhoto. So I have hundreds of duplicates I need to remove from the organizer. Is there an easy way to find the ones from iPhoto so I can remove them?

OK, but is there a way to search/filter on a string in the location (i.e. iPhoto) so I could then easily know which are the duplicates I want to delete?
If there isn't, then it seems that I will have to delete the catalog and start from scratch again. I had originally thought I didn't include iPhoto in the folders to search, but apparently it was somehow included so I will have to be more granular in what folders to search if I recreate the catalog again.

Easy way to remove a keyword from select images

Is there an easy way to remove a keyword?
I want to remove a single keyword from nearly 100 images that have multiple keywords. The single keyword I want to remove exists in other images that I don't want it removed from.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Create a keyword button set and then either use the menu option to remove that keyword or the shortcut key.

Is there an easy way to upgrade your OS from 10.5.8 to 10.6

is there an easy way to upgrade your OS from 10.5.8 to 10.6?
Thanks for your help
desmoutis

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
To upgrade, first buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
It's recommended to make a backup of your files. If the upgrade fails, you will lose data. After making the backup, insert the DVD and follow on-screen steps to upgrade.
That disc will install 10.6.3, so open  > Software Update, and install OS X 10.6.8

Is there an easy way to remove entries from my site?

I am running out of iDick space. I don't want/need to purchase more. I would like to remove some older entries from my site. Is there an easier way than cut and pasting? I want to save then on my computer, for posterity?

Hi Sharon!
Wow, you must have a very extensive site to be running out of iDisk space! First of all, are you sure you haven't got some unutilized iDisk space sitting around....maybe reserved for email or something? You can change the allocation between iDisk space and Email storage in your .Mac account settings page. Let me know if you need help on doing this...
If you really are running out of space, I can't think of a good way for you to back up a portion of your site locally and only publish the recent entries to your iDisk. As you already know, iWeb loves to publish it all...all the time! Maybe it's time to bit the bullet and just start a new site for your new entries going forward. Before you start the new site, you can backup a read only version of your website to a CD or something by using "Publish to Folder". Then once you are sure you have the working website locally, you can delete the site from iWeb once and for all and then start your new site.
I know it's probably not ideal, but it's a suggestion. You can always "Publish to Folder" and save the resulting folder as a fully functional website to a CD. Keep in mind that if you use any .Mac-only features (like counters, comments, search, slideshows, etc) these features will not be functional on a "Publish to Folder" site.
If you have found any of this information to be useful to you, please take the time to provide me with feedback by marking my reply as "solved" or "helpful" using those little buttons that you see in the title bar of this reply. I'd really appreciate it!

Is there any easy way to compare LIKE Addresses from one table, which contains 3rd party data, to another table, our database source

We have a 3rd party that is supplying us data and we need to compare the addressing between the 3rd party data to our source database addressing. I'd like to make it somewhat flexible meaning I'd like to somehow use the LIKE comparison rather than comparing
the exact address values. (I have noticed that the 3rd party addressing sometime has a leading <space> at the beginning of the address...why I'd prefer to use LIKE)
Is there any easy way to do this? Or does this dictate using a CURSOR and processing through the CURSOR of 3rd party data and plugging in the address LIKE as dynamic SQL?
Please let me know your thoughts on this and I appreciate your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Yes, it's possible and there are a variety of options but it's may not be for the faint of heart.
The last time I did it, I ended up taking several passes at the data.
1st pass was a straight up comparison with no modifications or functions.
2nd pass was the same but with all special characters removed.
3rd pass involved splitting the numeric portion of address and comparing just the street numbers and used a double meta-phone function (kind of like a soundex on steroids) to compare the street names.

Is there an easy way to remove duplicates in my Mac OS X Mail mailboxes?

Having imported some mailboxes from other applications I find that there are many duplicate messages in Mail mailboxes. I know this comes about from my lack of care in importing. I'd like to eliminate the duplicates, but obviously doing so one by one would be quite a task. I have little expectation that there's an easy way to do this, but I can always hope. Is there a way? Thanx,
Ken

Mail Scripts was a good suggestion but I doesn't work. Well what do you expect with freeware. I ran the duplicate catcher script several times, once on a rather large mailbox which I know contains hundreds of duplicates and it found 1 (one). As suggested I checked "Take all accounts offline" before I ran the script. Does anyone know a different program that can eliminate those duplicates? I'd really appreciate one that works.

Is there a fast way to remove duplicate files from itunes?

I relocated a lot of my music on my computer to a single folder so there would be less clutter. So far as I know there is no easy way to relocate all of my music without going through each song one by one, and I have a rediculous amount of music so this was simply not an option. Instead I dragged everything back into itunes from that folder. Now I have a large number of 'ghost' files in my itunes and I was wondering if there is a fast way to get rid of them all without selecting and deleting them all individually?

I actually have scripts for reconneting moved media, and I could have shown you how to move the library without breaking the links. Normally moving the entire iTunes folder and then shift-starting-iTunes does the trick. Sometimes it is possible to put a broken library back together again.
I'm working on a rebuild of my DeDuper script which will merge stats from missing files before deleting. It's been on the back burner for a while but the lack of show duplicates feature in iTunes 11 has prompted to have another look at the issue so with luck I'll get it done in the next few days. That would be one way to tidy up.
If you just want to remove all the dead tracks right now you can download and install iTunes Folder Watch. Point it at your iTunes Media folder, connect it to your .xml file and enable the option to Check for dead tracks on startup.

Hi. We just got a new laptop and did this (thanks to Chris CA!): Note this was from a Windows/XP to a Windows/Vista.
"On your original computer (XP), go to /My Documents/My Music.
Select the iTunes folder and drag it to your external drive. * buy a flash drive instead of using cds *
Install iTunes on the new computer (Vista).
Launch iTunes and let it do it's stuff.
Quit iTunes.
Connect the external drive.
Select the folder on the external and drag it to /Music on the C: drive.
It should ask if you want to replace the items on the C: drive.
Select Yes.
When it's finished, launch iTunes and everything should be there."
Hope this helps!

Is there any easy way to migrate painter reports from 4.7 Enterprise to 6.0

Dear All
We are being upgraded from 4.7 Enterprise to ECC 6.0 . The issue that we are facing is that company has more than 200 report painter reports ( on special ledger) and I was wondering if there is any easier way to migrate it to ECC than redoing the whole work. What I mean to say is that, is there any tool/program/tcode that we can use for copying/editing purpose of the reports in ECC 6.0 to be based on flex ledger.
Thanks

Hello
Why do you need to transport the reports? Upgrade to 6.0 should keep your
old reports from 4.7.
In any case transaction GR57 allows you to export them to local file in C:\ and GR58 will import them. I have tested between systems of different releases and
it worked correctly.

Is there an easy way to get GPS coordinates from Maps.app in Mavericks?

My DSLR doesn't have a GPS built in, but I like to Geo-tag some of my photos. I usually just take a pic with my iPhone and then copy the geo data (GPS coordinates) and paste into the photos (in Adobe Lightroom). Unfortunately, I didn't have my phone with me. I have the location stored as a bookmark in Maps, but I don't see any easy way to just pull coordinates.

Hi,
I am doing the same thing too. I have to call my reports thru menu. I tried web.show_document in my menu and it works. I also added paramform=yes and it gives the report parameters, but I want to give the user the choice of format for the reports. eg. pdf, html, excel, etc. instead of hardcoding it.
Could you please give me some idea on how can I do that??
Thanks.

Removing audio tracks from a clip

Hi,
I have a set of HD clips that were digitized with 8 tracks of audio. I only need the first two. Is there a way to eliminate these extra tracks BEFORE dropping them on the timeline. It's a great annoyance to have to either lock off audio layers to prevent these from going on my timeline, or having to link and unlink layers and remove them.. There has got to be a better way!!
Any ideas??
Thanks!

Locate your clip in the Finder, on the Media drive. Duplicate your clip first...to make sure you don't mess anything up irreversibly.
Open it in Quicktime. Go to the WINDOW menu and then SHOW MOVIE PROPERTIES. Notice how you have a Video track, and then 8 audio tracks, and the timecode track. Delete the audio tracks you don't want by highlighting them and pressing DELETE.
Save the file. Import that into FCP to make sure it is done right.
