ITunes 10.5.3 has import and playback issues

I cannot add some MP3 to my library using iTunes 10.5.3 software version, but can using earlier software versions. Also some tunes already in my iTunes libabry no longer play in 10.5.3. This seems to be related to some tag information that does not carry across into 10.5.3 because the tunes in my library that dont play do not have the cover artwork as the icon but just the quaver icon. This is annoying! Please someone fix!

I am having same problem. I want to to take a music video from the Movies Library and export it into the Music Video Playlist at bottom of sidebar. The only thing I can do is to create another playlist. Why cant  I put them directly into the Music Video Playlist provided by Apple? I also tried exporting from desk top and directly import into the Music Video Playlist but it will not allow this, so I am forced to import everything into one of the Itunes Libraries located at the top of Sidebar. [Macbook pro 17'', Lion].

  • Casio Exilim EX-S600 digital camera import and playback issues

    When importing the mpeg4 video (.AVI files) from my Casio Exilim EX-S600 digital camera with plug in version 1.1 and iMovie HD 6.0.1 I consistently get an unknown error. I use the HQ setting on the camera. Quicktime will play the movies though sometimes they stutter, if you pause, and then resume it seems to playback better. Strange to say the least. Any tips on how I can edit these clips? And get better playback performance in Quicktime? Thanks in advance!

    do you mean sync or shared lib?
    because unless you have the old silver alu appletv with a harddisk sync is not possible at all

  • Unable to drag and drop mp4 movies into itunes but the file will import and play using home sharing

    Strange problem with my brothers MacBook.
    The movie files were converted to mp4 format ready to be played on an iphone and I imported them into my iTunes on an iMac with no problems.
    Files were also saved onto a flash drive which I passed on to my brother.
    My brother was unable to import files by drag and drop and also by "add to library", we even copied and pasted files from the flash drive to the desktop but that also didn't work.
    Using "home sharing the movies imported and played with no problems.
    Any ideas why this is happening?

    This appears to be a long-standing bug:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634720
    and the accepted workaround is stated in comment 11.
    Oddly, it's possible to do the reverse, i.e. drag multiple eml files from Explorer to a TB folder.

  • ITunes says registry settings for importing and burning CDs or DVDs are missing.

    i get a message after installing itunes 10.7 that registry settings are missing for importing and burning CD/DVDS. Says probably due to installing other burning sofware. Re-install ituenes.  I never installed anything between the older 10.6 and the new 10.7........just updated when it said new Apple software was available.  The update process seemed to delete the 10.6 install and then re-install a new version of itunes, 10.7.  Then the registry settings error message started coming up each time I start itunes. What's the proper way to re-install?
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

  • Growing file import and refresh issues

    1) With files generated by our own MOV/op1a writers, we get different results with different wappers, different OS platforms and versions, and different storage filesystems, both using CC 7.1 and CS6.05 
    Quicktime files on the Mac, OS 10.7.5 to a Samba share: refresh will only work by putting Premiere into the background then bringing it to the foreground to force the update. 
    Quicktime files (any codec) on a win7 PC writing to an NTFS share: we get sporadic updates, although in about 98% of sessions, the file will update once or twice after import and then never again during that particular CC/CS6 session. Exiting the program, reopening it and loading the project again will update the duration.  After closing the file, the duration updates instantly in both CC/CS6
    -- For Quicktime files, it seems like some sort of cache file is written that does not get updatedand premiere looks at this instead of polling the current state of the file.
    op1a XDCAM - on PC at least we get a sharing violation when attempting to open, much as in this discussion on the Adobe Community Premiere site: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4746601
    op1a AVC-I not tested yet.
    2) With Adobe Media Encoder CC doing the writing, we get no joy whatsoever.  Only tested on win7/NTFS share
    op1a XDCAM on import CS6/CC returns "file is open in another program" error.
    op1a AVC-I on import CS6/CC returns "file is open in another program" error.
    Quicktime (any codec) file import error or crash.
    All types import correctly after the files are closed.
    -- seems that the AME openfile() handle type is write-only, so Premiere can't open it for reading.
    So...I guess my first question is, what growing file source has this feature been tested with, on which OS and storage filesystems?
    There is virtually zero documentation and what little exists is very unspecific or contradictory...

    Ken,
    There are numerous posts on this subject. Currently LR treats same name, different extension files as sidecars of each other. Check out the numeroues RAW + JPG posts for example.
    Import your files into different folders and then move them into the folder you want for now.
    Hopefully this behaviour will be changed in the forthcoming 1.1 release mentioned by Jeff Schewe et al.

  • Let's all contact Apple about CD imports and burning issues

    While reading through the posts here, it appears that there are alot of us with issues dealing with iTunes and CD imports and CD burning. Even using Quicktime 7.1.3, I still cannot even play a CD track. I can use other applications to import music, but the bottom line is that iTunes should let us import CD tracks. It doesn't. If you are having problems with these slow CD imports, or CD burning with iTunes 7, then we all need to contact Apple. I suggest that instead of trying to find a workaround, lets all get Apple to correct their iTunes application. When you open iTunes, click on iTunes in the toolbar across the top of your monitor and scroll down to the line "Provide iTunes feedback" Fill out the questions and describe exactly what CD import/burning issues that you are having. We will not hear back from Apple individualy, but if we all start letting them know directly that there is an issue, maybe they will get the message and fix these problems. We all appear to be passionate about Apple and iTunes. Lets get these problems resolved. Okay?

    I am having no problems. I did with my Ti667 when the optical drive died.
    I am onto the latest version of iTunes and can report no problems for me.
    Oppp......... my iTS country changes and I changed back and my account is in good order.

  • CS4 HDV Capture and playback issues

    Hey,
    I am having trouble with HDV capture and playback on Prem Pro CS4. I tried all the steps mentioned on the article posted by Adobe, http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405478.html
    None of these steps have helped anything. I used the cleanup utility, re-installed everything and started from fresh and nothing happens. Capture is always out of sync, it ignores in and out points when batch capturing and playback is all jerky regardless of quality settings. The weird thing is, this only started happening out of the blue. I was using it on a project and it was fine. I hadn't used Prem Pro in a little while and then all these problems began. No change in hardware.
    I am using Premiere Pro CS4 on Windows 7 and capturing HDV footage via firewire on a Sony Z7.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    With Win7, if you have not already done so...

  • Importing a movies gives choppy results both on import and playback...

    Hello everyone,
    I just got an ADVC-55 AD video converter for my Mac quad 2.8. (I am running 10.5.4). When I try to import the video from the VCR via the firewire-connected converter, the video+sound as it is being imported is choppy. This remains choppy on playback once recorded, as well. The same results were for iMovie '08 and iMoveHD '06. In general, when importing movies into the computer, is using iMove '08 better than iMovieHD '06? (I know that iMovie is better for chapters and such for editing once in the computer).
    I have tested the VCR on my TV and it is smooth with the same source tape and machine.
    This converter is supposed to be plug and play and there are no drivers or software that comes with it. There are 6 dipswitches and these are all set to off.
    Drive is a Seagate Barricuda 7200, with 300 gigs free...
    Are there any setting I should change to fix the choppiness?
    Any help is appreciated,
    Thank you for you time.

    Hi
    Some thoughts.
    1. free space on Your internal (start-up) hard disk ? 25Gb or more ? 5Gb or less ?
    2. Is Your Canopus ADVC-55 set right ?
    My Canopus ADVC-300 has two sets of DIP-switches on it's bottom and this has to
    be set right to work. See manual.
    3. A VHS-tape can play "smoothly" to a TV but still have "drop-outs". When exporting
    via a A/D converting box (eg Canopus ADVC-55) It will be much more sensitive to these.
    Set in iMovie/Pref to not import as individual clips. Can help a bit.
    If this is Your problem an import would yield in lots of small clips.
    After change it should import larger blocks with smoother playback.
    4. QT 7.5 seems to be problematic. Try to downgrade to version 7.4.5
    QuickTime is the heart/engine in iMovie and FinalCut. If this has a problem
    both programs starts to ill behave
    5. Deleting iMovie pref file might help - easier is to start a new account and
    log into this and have a re-try.

  • Import and playback slow

    I have a imovie project stored on an external hard drive (only) because I don't have enough free space on my main drive. Yet playback and import is freezing - SBBOD!. I have been told that I need more virtual memory; does this mean RAM and can I install it myself?

    It has to be *Mac OS Extended* formatted (UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - Doesn't work)
    If not then You have to move any valubale files elsewhere and then formatte it as such.
    Formatting always erase too.
    Then it depends on what Mac You got Intel or Power-PC (G3, G4 or G5)
    When formatting You have also to select
    • Gui-something or
    • the other alternative
    depending on Mac CPU.
    You should ask in proper forum related to Your specific Mac
    Then When the external drive is properly formatted - You just use the Mac OS X
    install disks and put a Mac OS on this one.
    Then when done You can in System pref. select start disk - or - while starting up
    keeping [alt-key] pressed and select from displayed alernatives.
    Yours Bengt W

  • HT3702 I purchased two songs from ITunes. One amount has cleared and the other STILL hasn't posted to my account? Why is it taking so long. I have to change my cc number, but if this one still hasn't posted, then my cc won't go through

    I purchased two songs at the same time off of ITunes and only one has cleared my credit card...Why? What if I need to change my cc and my purchase still hasn't cleared?

    Steve:
    As good practice save the project as a disk image (File->Save as Disk Image menu option) instead of burning directly to disk. This allows you to play the disk image in DVD Player to verify that the encoding of the project was good. If the project plays OK in DVD Player you can then burn that disk image to disk with Disk Utility at the slowest speed available. If there is any problems with the disk playing it can then be narrowed down to the burn process. Also use the top grade media. Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden or Maxell -R are the most recommended brands in this forum.

  • PRE 10 hangs up on clips while importing and playback

    After importing clips from by DV camcorder when I play them back in preview or work with them on the timeline they often will hang up and pause somewhere in the middle of the clip and I have to start with play again to continue.  Makes editing a terrible process.  Do I have a setting in correct in PRE 10?  Sometimes the actual importing process is hung up in the same manner with an error that there was an "unknown recorder problem" and all of that clip is then lost.  Help!
