Loosing audio files

I record an audio file with microphone, then I save the project and start a new one. When I open the earlier file again, GB tells me that it can't find audio file, for example "can't find recording#02.aiff" Can I find this lost file somewhere, and what might be reason for this annoying problem?

You specify "CS6," but do not indicate whether you have patched to the latest. If you haven't please do so.
Any time I hear "crash on launch" (or words to that effect), my first thought is that something in the preferences may be tripping up the app. You can clear the prefs by holding Shift+Option while launching the app--keep the keys pressed until PPRO finishes launching. If you've invested time customizing your prefs and want to be able to revert to them in case they weren't the cause of the problem, then you can manually move or rename them; let us know if you need help finding them.
Other possible culprits, in the order that I recommend proceeding:
If the crash occurs only when you launch directly into a particular project, then naturally that project is most likely the cause.
Drivers, especially for graphics card: update them (on Mac, that means updating OSX)
third party codecs: uninstall them
third party hardware: first update drivers. If that doesn't help, disconnect or disable the hardware

  • HT3659 My Soundtrack pro looses the mic on AJAKona.  It will appear as an input only after clicking on New audio file, then ok, Recording alert appears and then I have my AJA KONA3g back as an input option. loose it again if I change track

    My Soundtrack pro looses the mic on AJAKona.  It will appear as an input only by clicking on New audio file, then ok,  and an Recording alert comes up.  But if I change track I loose the AJA again. How do I fix this?

    Finally found the answer. The recording was done at 48, the audio/MIDI settings were set to 48, but the sampling setting on the export was not, causing everything else to break down. Once all three matched the export worked and the playback audio worked without opening the clip editing screen.

  • How do I fuse audio files together?

    Hey, I'm finishing up the editing for my full-length horror feature, and currently I'm putting in the sound effects and I was trying to figure out how can I fuse audio files together?
    Here's the thing, my video files are files I converted into AVIs from VOBs, only problem is that the audio disappeared from them, but my friend tried to load all my VOBs into AVIs for me since I did something wrong but when he converted them the video was gone but the audio was there...so I figured I'd just take the audio and put it in place.
    Right now I have to put in a sound effect of the guy screaming while gory sounds are playing in the background, then after that I have a chainsaw scene where a woman screams, a chainsaw blases, a mechanical laughter is heard, and gory sounds are playing all together.
    If you could help me figure out how to get the files to fuse together to play the sounds all together, knowing I have to change the volume for each one, that would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

    Ah, those scroll bars. They don't stand out, as much, as I would like. I always overlook the ones in the Share Panel, though I have used them many times.
    Unfortunately, PrE has chosen an arrangement, where Audio & Video Tracks are grouped. I like the PrPro layout, where all Video Tracks are above a "centerline" and all Audio Tracks are below that.
    About the closest that one can come in PrE is to use Delete Unused Tracks, to remove empty Video Tracks, or to View Video Tracks (alone), or View Audio Tracks (alone). With a combo of those, one can customize the Timeline a bit.
    When cleaned up, one can then Add Tracks, for any additional Audio Tracks necessary.
    If one did ONLY the View Audio, they loose the ability to refer to the Video Track, and with SFX, that is necessary, at least for me.
    I like to keep each type of Audio on its own Track. That makes actions, like applying Track Keyframes, or adjustments to JUST that Clip, or Clip type. If I have SFX, music, camera Audio, and other Audio sources, I will put many SFX on their own Audio Track, the camera Audio on another, and then the music one one, or more additional Audio Tracks. Not too long ago, I had one Project with about 10 separate SFX Audio Tracks, one for a "loon," one for "crickets," three for "frogs," one for "pond ambiance," and then two for music (as I was doing faux DD 5.1 SS in PrPro), with one from Music F (front) and Music R (rear).
    Good luck, and happy editing,

  • How do I repair a broken M4A audio file?

    I used the program Audio hijack Pro to capture some audio of a Skype conversation. But in the middle of the conversation AHP crashed, and I'm left with an incomplete and corrupt m4a audio file. It is 6,7MB big, which indicates to me that the audio is still there, but not accessible. No program I tried can open the file or repair it.
    I tried vlc, quicktime, soundtrack pro, windows media player, fission, audacity and some smaller tools like BeSliced...
    Please help, I don't want to loose 30 minutes of speech recording!

    If your presentation is such that you want to recover it rather than reconstruct it, you could consult the Apple documentation on the Keynote document structure. That said, I have never had much luck directly editing the XML file, and I have grave doubts about the efficiency of such an endeavour. If you do go about it, I would first try deleting all but one slide from the XML file, and see if you can get the presentation to open at all, then build up the file from there. (Obviously you should first make a copy of the presentation and keep that separate before editing the XML files.)

  • .MTS Audio Files help needed

    I'm having a little trouble with editing.
    The footage I am editing are .MTS files. Both the audio and video.
    The video is playing fine (well, as best it can for my rubbish uni computers) but I am having trouble hearing the audio - and I'm getting lots of conforming errors.
    I read here that CS4 doesn't support .MTS audio files. If that's the case then why can I hear some of them and not the others?
    Should I be converting the audio into another format before editing? If so, then what's the best format to convert to, and how can I do it in a way that I don't have to strip the audio from the video (I want to keep them perfectly synced)
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Nath

    Hi Bill,
    Thanks for your reply, that's an interesting article. The files I am editing are stored on an external hard drive - I tried deleting a few files on there to make some room (whilst I was in the editing suite) and it wouldn't let me delete them because it said I didn't have administrator permission - despite this being my own hard drive. Could that be causing a problem with conforming? Should I copy the files accross onto the internal drive? The scratch disks are set to the local D drive.
    Nath
    Ps: I've just downloaded a program which is converting the .MTS files into .MOV. I don't really want to do this as this will probably loose quality - but I'm trying everything! What would be the optimum file type to convert to?

  • Why does my footage Slow down and loose audio when imported to after effects cs6?

    Whenever I import video of any kind into after effects, it slows down and looses audio. It happens for every video. The weird thing is, it seems like it doesnt happen to anyone else on the internet. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME PLEASE!!!! I am about to cry. I cant do anything with this stupid software! If there is a solution please tell me. Its really annoying.
    extra info-
    On Mac
    mov. Files
    H.264 codec

    Slows down when? When you preview? Do you know how to preview?
    If you are pressing the space bar to preview the video then the behavior you are seeing is normal. AE will not playback in real time with autio unless you do a ram preview (look it up). You must learn to use the software.

  • Elements 8 - loosing audio

    I moved to Windows 7, 64-bit, and was therefore forced to abandon my beloved Elements 4 for version 8.    The first thing I noticed was some MPEGS lost the audio while importing into Elements. Bummer.   Anyone else have this problem?
    Also the $20 rebate file never opens.
    Change... yuck.

    These files are downloaded from my Sony Camcorder to the computer.  The format is .MPG.
    Interestingly, some files import to PE8 with audio intact.  Some loose audio.
    This never happened with PE4.

  • How do I move MPEG audio files from my iPod to my library on my computer???

    Can someone tell me how to move MPEG audio files from my iPod to my library on my computer? Somehow all my songs on my iPod are MPEGs and they won't transfer to the library. I really don't want to loose the music, and there doesn't appear to be an option to convert the MPEG to a ACC file while the MPEG is on the iPod. Please help....

    iTunes/iPod does not provide a way of copying tracks from an iPod to iTunes except for purchased music. But iTunes can play MP3 files without conversion.
    Here are some ways of getting files from an iPod to your PC:
    Copy from iPod to PC
    It is important not to allow your iPod to sync with an empty library. If it is set to synchronise automatically you will get a message saying your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to sync – it is important to press cancel as syncing with an empty library erases all music from your iPod.
    You can also prevent auto sync by holding down shift & ctrl as you plug in your iPod and keeping the keys held down until the iPod appears in iTunes.
    Once you are connected, you need to set your iPod to manage music manually.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
    If you have an iPod with iTunes Store purchases on it, you can use it to copy your purchases to other authorized computers.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    However this is not allowed for other music.
    This MacMuse tip tells you how to copy music from your iPod using Windows Explorer, but it is a bit fiddly:
    http://discussions.apple.com/messageview.jspa?messageID=797432
    Otherwise you can use third party software to manage the transfer, there are a variety of programs out there, some free and some that will copy ratings and counts as well as the music files. Here is a selection, check them out and see what suits you.

    no known fix of which I'm aware
    Actually, there might be. Per Harm's suggestion, details on:
    1.) System
    2.) Assets
    3.) Project
    4.) Operations being performed
    might help someone spot a common aspect and a solution will likely be forthcoming. If not a solution, someone will definitely have a workaround, until Adobe can address the issue with an update.
    In the meantime, you might want to file a Bug Report, but do be ready to furnish all of the details, so that Adobe can replicate the problem.

  • 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*

  • Download Helper, even with paid converter upgrade, gives "Invalid Capture File" errors and will not record audio, with "File Creation Error - Unable to rename/copy audio file" Error.

    Download Helper Screen Capture worked to capture video if the default "no audio" option is active. But, no audio. The "speakers" or "microphone" audio options are confusing....the audio to be captured is from the video, so what do you choose? With either "speakers" or "microphone" selected, the captured file has poor audio and no video. Re-capture efforts (speakers) get "Invalid capture file error" and "File Creation error- Unable to rename/copy audio file"
    The paid upgrade of "Converter" doesn't work.
    Instructive documentation - not very good.
    Suggestions - Need time delay between initiation of "Record" and starting the video to be recorded.
    Could use timer tracking of the record process.
    Are there operating system limitations? (Have Windows XP Pro)

    That is an issue for the developer of that Download Helper.

  • My Iphone won't sync my CD audio files, after having them on my Iphone for years I updated the other day and they all dissapeared, all that's left is songs bought from Itunes.

    I've had an Iphone 4 and I have been listening to hundreds of songs no problem for the past year and a half I've owned it. The other day I decided to sync my Iphone to my laptop to get two songs from a CD. After doing this process and approaching it like I usually would (without causing any problems) I checked my Iphone to see if the two songs had downloaded after the sync. I discovered that my Iphone had lost every audio file that was not bought from the Itunes store leaving me with a sliver of songs to listen to. I immediatly checked my laptop (a Windows device) to see if my music was still there, thankfully it's all on my laptop and the songs play without a problem. So I attempted to sync the songs to my iphone several times, but the CD songs would simply not sync (When syncing your Iphone it consists of 5 steps, the progress bar skips steps 3-4, those are the steps when your music syncs). I'm not an idiot, I checked the small details (checking all albums and songs I wanted and checking the 'entire music library' option) as well I checked the big details (making sure my phone and Itunes were up to date, changing the USB to Iphone wire with another just like it). After a couple of hours of tinkering with different ways to sync I was stumped so I decided to restore my Iphone to factory settings. After doing that and setting up my Iphone newly I still could not download those CD files from Itunes to my Iphone. I called apple support and they recommended that I uninstall Itunes and re-install it. Again no success, all my music is still on my laptop working fine, but I can't seem to sync my CD songs from itunes to my Iphone. If anybody has any info please help. -A college student who needs something to listen to everyday on the hour long bus

    Amazing steps you've done so far! The great news is this is very unlikely an issue with your iPhone.
    I've run into a similar issue lately as well. I narrowed it down to one song that was causing 30 songs not to sync. I removed the song from the sync list (unchecked it) and all 29 songs were able to sync.
    You may be running into a similar issue. This may be a problem with this version of iTunes, an issue with one song or a group of songs; hard to know for sure. It's important to narrow down and isolate the cause. Most imporantly get that music back on there!
    The way to narrow down the casue add just a few songs at a time (even 1, just to get that first sync finished). Manually syncing is what you'll need here.
    Plug in your iPhone, on the Summary screen (shows a picture of your iPhone, the iOS version, Restore iPhone....; etc). Under the Options area at the bottom choose to Manually Manage Videos and Music then choose Apply in the lower right. The music that's on your iPhone now should be removed from your iPhone now. You're now able to sync music manually.
    The link below explains how to drag the songs from the iTunes library on the computer on to your iPhone which will start the sync. Add just one song just to see if you can get 1 of those hundreds of songs on there. If you can, awesome! Keep adding until you find the song or group of songs that are causing this issue.

    otherwise you could also try to remove flash 11.3 from the windows control panel/programs section & [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/889580 downgrade to the 10.3 branch of the plugin], which is still receiving security updates.
