Loading a .band file back into Garageband (iPad 2)

Hi all. I am a newbie. Forgive me if this question is ridiculous, and forgive me if it's been asked 1000 times. Basically, I'm trying to collaborate with some old school buddies through Garageband. I only have it on Ipad 2, they have it on their macs. I do not have a mac (terrible, I know). We're all working from a Dropbox account. I put a file of a guitar track into said Dropbox. They've already done work on the file and dropped it back into the box. Now, I'm able to get the new .band folder back into itunes through my pac, via ifunbox. However, when I pull up Garageband on the Ipad 2 and click the + sign and select itunes, it doesn't show up. If I select a song I have on my Garageband, I can see the folder through Apple Loops, but it isn't accessible. I can just see the title, and it's in grey, not in bold black. So, is it not possible to get this back onto the iPad 2 by pc through iTunes? Will it ever be? Better yet, if I had a mac, would this be doable? I realize this is worded terribly, but any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I've just tested this workaround again. It should work like this:
Export
Create a song in GarageBand on an iOS device.
From the My Songs screen tap Edit, select the song to export, tap the sharing icon, Share Song Via iTunes as GarageBand format.
Connect the device to iTunes, go to the Apps tab, File Sharing area, highlight the song folder and click Save As..., then chose a folder to save it in.
This folder can then be shared for others to work on.
Import
Connect device to iFunBox.
Drag project folder into <Device>\App File Sharing\GarageBand.
On the device go to the GarageBand > My Songs view, tap the + icon, then Copy From iTunes. The imported project should be there.
If GarageBand for iOS doesn't see or want to import the edited project then my guess is that something about the external editing process has flagged it as being incompatible. There are workarounds for converting GarageBand for OSX files into an iOS compatible form, but not having a Mac I haven't tested any of them.

  • How to put exported iPod Garageband files back onto Garageband?

    Hi,
    Last year before I got a new iPod Touch I exported my Garageband song files onto my laptop using the "file sharing" feature on iTunes, at the bottom of the "apps" screen. I now want to put these files back onto Garageband on my latest iPod but am not sure how. The songs have saved  in folders titled *songname*.band and upon entering the folders I am presented with more  folders entitled ontents, media, output and thumbs. There is also a standalone file named ProjectData. I've tried adding the ProjectData file to garageband, but this has no effect.
    Both iPods were 4th gen. My current IOS is 6.1.6.
    So in short, how can I get the songs contained in these folders back into my iPod touch?
    Thank you for any assistance.

    You should be able to sync your projects back to the iPod, if you add the .band files back to the GarageBand file sharing area in iTunes, when you sync your iPod again.
    But this will only work, if you did not open the projects in GarageBand on your Mac and convert them to GarageBand for Mac projects.

  • How to import modified files back into Muse

    Maybe this is an easy sync issue....hopefully.
    I've exported my html files from Muse (after publishing to Biz Catalyst) and want to modify the html, such as ad href's to divs in the slideshow, etc. How can I import these modified html files back into Muse so I can publish back to Business Catalyst?
    I realize it's an easy solution to host the exported files on another server, but I'd really like to stay within the Muse/Biz Catalyst environment with updated html's.
    thanks much!!

    There isn't a way at this time to import HTML files into Muse and expect it to load in Design mode for a subsequent re-publish. The only kind of editing that Muse supports today (outside of Muse) is through Business Catalyst's In-Browser editing feature but that is limited to editing only text (without any formatting or styles) and foreground images <http://www.adobekb.com/working-with-in-browser-editing_pt01.html>. Feel free to submit your feature request over at our Ideas section.

  • Loading of flat file (csv) into PSA – no data loaded

    Hi BW-gurus,
    We have an issue regarding loading a flat file (csv) into PSA using an infopackage u2013 (BI 7.0)
    The infopackage has been used for a while. Prior the consultants with SAP_ALL-profile have run the infopackage. Now we want a few super users to run the infopackage.
    We have created a role for the super users, including authorization objects:
    Data Warehousing objects: S_RS_ADMWB
    Activity: 03, 16, 23, 63, 66
    Data Warehousing Workbench obj: INFOAREA, INFOOBJECT, INFOPACKAG, MONITOR, SOURCESYS, WORKBENCH
    Data Warehousing Workbench u2013 datasource (version > BW 3.x): S_RS_DS
    Activity: All
    Datasource: All
    Subobject for New DataSource: All
    Sourcesystem: FILE
    Data Warehousing Workbench u2013 infosource (flex update): S_RS_ISOUR
    Activity: Display, Maintain, Request
    Application Component: All
    InfoSource: All
    InfoSource Subobject: All values
    As mentioned, the infopackage in question, has been used by consultants with SAP_ALL-profile for some time, and been working just fine.  When the super users with the new role are executing the infopackage, the records are found, but not loaded into PSA. The load seems to be stuck, but no error message occurs. The file we are trying to load contains only 15 records.
    Details monitor:

    Have we forgotten something? Any assistance will be highly appreciated!
    Cheers,

    Hi,
    Try to use the transaction ST01 to trace the authorization of the upload with the SAP_ALL. 
    And the enhance your Profile for the super user.
    Best regards

  • How can I import an ibook file back into iBook Author?

    I exported an ebook from iBook Author thinking it is the equivalent of saving the file.
    I did not save the file, I only exported it and than exited the program.
    My active file is vannished.
    I need to make some adjustments to the ebook, but can not bring it back up.
    Is there a way that I can re-import the iBook file back into iBook Author?
    When I open iBook Author and try to open the exported file the program does not recognise the ibook file...
    Thanks for your help!

    Check for previous versions of that book in iBA....even if not saved.
    You can dig into the .ibooks file by changing the suffix to zip, but you'll have to manually extract what you can from assets you find. Please only do this with your own books.

    Question?
    I have accidentally deleted a large number of develped images in Lightroom before I did a backup. I reimported the original raw files back into Lightroom hoping the develop settings would be re-established but no luck. Notice system mau have done an auto-backup as have an lrcat-journal file. Can I use this to restore my develop settings. I also have jpgs generated from all the deleted images.

    Hello,
    if you have a backup of your catalog you can do the following:
    1. Backup your catalog first
    2. Restore your backup catalog to some location
    3. Open your current catalog and select "files->import from another catalog".
    4. Select your backup catalog and your lost images. LR ask you if you want to overwrite the current settings or save them as a virtual copy.
    As an alternativ you can open your backup catalog, select the "lost" images and save the development settings as xmp sidecar fiels (using ctrl-s). Then open your current catalog, seletct the images and use "Metadata->Read Metadata from files".

    Hi thee.  As logical as I can be.  I export a file back into my folder as a PSD.  I then export that file to PS.  Work on it, save and return it to LR.  The file goes to the bottom of the folder from where I have to put it back in the original place, taking time and driving me slightly mad.  Why does the file not go back to where it came from please?  Thanks  Tim

    Umm, but this folder is an amalgam of two cameras and five cards, and I want them in capture order!  Thanks for trying though Jim.

  • Is it possible to get published to folder files back into iweb?

    Hello,
    I have created a website in iweb and published it to a folder and to my .mac account. I have recently closed down my .mac account so I could reopen one with my new business name. In the meantime I have upgraded to Leopard which deleted my iweb application.I have got another copy of iweb but now when I open iweb it does not automatically open my website up. Does anyone know if it is possible to open my old website which I have Published to a folder in iweb so I can publish it to my new .mac site?
    If i click on the html files in the folder it runs like the website but from that folder only. All the work is there I just can't find out how to get it back on the net.
    Please help so I don't have to spend weeks re entering all the files back into iweb one by one!
    Thanks

    You can upload your website files by drag and drop to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites to get your website up and running.
    To be able to publish changes you will have to do a search for the original domain.sites2 file and drop this into Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb.
    If you can't find it, then rebuilding is your only option. This is frustrating but doesn't take too long if you copy and paste all your text, images etc from the published files to your new iWeb pages.

  • Move System Preferences Help file back into System Preferences folder?

    How do I move System Preferences Help file back into System Preferences folder.  I unintentionally moved it.  My Mac blocks putting it back.  Suggestions?  Thanks!

    Somehow I managed to delete my System Preferences shortly after upgrading, and was able to use the 10.4 one for a while until I applied the patch. Luckily, I already had Pacifist, and with your directions I was able to get close enough so that I could find the Applications folder within the ContentsofEssentialsSystemSoftwareGroup > ContentsofEssentials.pkg > Applications > SystemPreferences.app.
    For that, I owe you the deepest gratitude and a gigantic THANK YOU. My System Preferences is now fully reinstalled and working wonderfully.
    Pacifist might actually be worth purchasing.

  • How do I put recovery files back into ASM?

    I'm trying to recover a database for testing. I have all the backup files in a directory. I've restored the controlfile.
    When I run the restore, the error is:
    RMAN-03002: failure of restore command at 10/21/2009 19:24:52
    RMAN-06026: some targets not found - aborting restore
    RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 4 found to restore
    RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 3 found to restore
    RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 2 found to restore
    RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 1 found to restore
    I'm guessing that I either need to tell rman where to find the files or put the files back into the ASM +FLASHBACK.
    So 1) How do I tell rman that the files are now in a directory
    or 2) How do I put the files back into ASM?
    Thanks - JR

    I restored the control file with the rman "RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM 'filenamegoeshere'; It was the control file backup from the corresponding DB backup.
    I couldn't use the RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM AUTOBACKUP because it was expecting the backup files to be in the ASM +FLASHBACK.
    The catalog lists all the files that I have, but it thinks they are in ASM.
    Thanks - JR
