    "I have been able to convert to AAC by first converting to AIFF  and then to AAC. This is a pan though."
    this worked for me.
    thanks.

  • The .Mac sound files: Can I put them on a web page?

    Well, now that I have all those sounds files (Thank you, Diane Cayton!), I would like to put them onto some iWeb pages for atmosphere. I refer to the sound files of the squeaky door, the horse whinny, the typewriter clicking etc).
    1) Would I have to convert the sound files the same way that I did for my .mp3 music files? (From .mp3 files to .mov files)
    2) Would they be edited in the same way as the other sound files that I got from Michael Wong's website? (height 16px, controller False, Loop True, and Automatic Start True) If so, then I assume that they would be treated the same way in MassMoveIt as the other .mov files.

    My new reason for uploading photos to a photo sharing site is: backup security for my photos, and simply an alternate way to show photos/slideshows/videos.
    I liked the LOOK of Picasa a lot, but then I discovered that Picasa system requirements are PC; I didn't see Mac anywhere. I sent an email and the response was to send me to a page where I surmised the above. They do not say, "We don't work with Macs." They only list PC jargon in system requirements.
    Another photo sharing site I found: Dropshots, where you can upload your VIDEOS. They play all kinds of video formats. I am considering uploading my videos to Dropshots or some such site and then putting hyperlinks onto a "Movie" page template in iWeb. That way ALL of my friends can see my videos, not just those who have QuickTime. I did an informal survey among people in my email group, and enough of them said that they don't have QuickTime to make me think twice.
    There is another site which has My Space in the title, and it mentions slide show creations.
    WHAT I MIGHT DO TO DECIDE WHICH ONE I LIKE:
    I will choose a folder of photos (probably Nancy's African Safari) and join those sites, which are free. See how difficult or easy each site makes it for me to upload photos. See what options are offered for formatting and making the page look good. See what the final outcome is. How good do the photos look? I am old, those photo sites make the photos look better than iWeb slideshows do. Then after researching it to death and beyond, I will choose the site that satisfies my requirements.
    I am going to a funeral today; yet another light in the universe has blinked out forever. I know that it is balanced out by some baby being born somewhere, but theoretical and philosophical constructs are no solace for personal loss.

    Since I have the newest version of itunes, I can't back up like normally. The only way is to considilate files and then put them on an external drive which I don't have. Are there any other options? If I can't back up to a disc like I used to, can I instead just keep everything on my ipod and then if I have to get a new computer or something just download all my songs from the ipod to my new computer's itunes? Will that work? Will I still be able to keep all my songs that way?

    I'm going to assume the consolidating files does not work due to hard drive space limitations.
    Since you're moving to Windows 7, have you tried using the Windows files and settings transfer utility?  That will move everything for you to the same location on the new computer, it also allows some control over what actually gets moved.
    Alternatively, if you know the location of all of the media, it can be manually moved by copying it from the old computer to the new computer in the same location.
    Also, using the Apple article on moving the library, take a slight twist on what it says.  Move the iTunes library to the external drive, update the settings in iTunes to reflect the library being on the external drive, then consolodate it.
    The options are endless for moving the library... it simply takes a little effort to make it happen and possibly a twist on existing "standard" methods depending on your unique situation.

  • I have ringtones on itunes how can I put them on my iphone 4

    I have ringtones on itunes how can I put them on my iphone

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some strange reason you have failed to backup ( not good at all), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space

    I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space.

    I haven't done this with an external drive, but I would imagine it works the same way as if you have multiple internal drives.  Also hopefully it works with less headache in OSX than in windows.
    Anyway, move all your music over to your external, and then go into itunes -> preferences -> advanced -> iTunes media folder location.  Navigate to your drive, and pick the folder you want.  Ensure that your folders are set up like they are in your ~/Music/iTunes folder, or wherever your iTunes is currently pointing.  Then quit and restart itunes.  If your music doesn't show up, try dragging your music folder from your external onto itunes, and it will hopefully update your library.xml.
    As far as Jerry's problem goes, you could try adding another music folder to your library.xml, but I really have no idea whether this will work or not.  If you want to give it a try (can't promise you won't corrupt your library.xml, so make a copy beforehand) you can find the music folder xml element right near the top of the xml file (open it with textedit/textmate/whatever text editor you want (NOT WORD)).  Curious to know if this works, and if it doesn't I have other ideas so let me know.

  • I have some stuff i want to put on external hard drive when i drag the file or files it just puts them back

    Did you format the external disk on Windows? If you did this, probably the external disk is formatted in NTFS. OS X can't write on this format, so it's normal that it doesn't allow you to copy the files.
    In this case, you have three possibilities:
    1. Install Paragon NTFS. This program allows you to write on NTFS partitions.
    2. Copy the hard drive content to your internal disk and format the external disk with Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Do it only if you are going to use the external disk only with OS X.
    3. The same as the last one but formatting it with exFAT. This filesystem is compatible with Windows (XP, Vista, 7, 8) and OS X (10.6.5 and newer), so you can write and read files on external disks formatted with it on Windows and OS X, but you may have problems on Linux

    Do you mean 5230? If so, then you can install themes on your 5230 (symbian S60 5th edition). Also you can uninstall a theme or an app from file manager.

  • What type of movie files can I put on my Ipod Video?

    the only formats that can be synced to the ipod video is .mov and .mp4.
    you need to convert the videos to these formats using 3rd party software.

  • Okay so i recorded a song but each part comes out as like take 1, i have 10 takes. how can i put them all together as one take, to make one song all in one take not small pieces of a song.

    okay so i recorded a song but each part comes out as like take 1, i have 10 takes. how can i put them all together as one take, to make one song all in one take not small pieces of a song. like i hit record and sang the entire song but when i hit play it was in pieces not just one song like it was in ten takes. is there any way i can blend it all into one take, to make one clear song?

    You're not very clear in stating your problem. Maybe it's terminology: "takes" in recording lingo (and in GB lingo) are different version of exactly the same part in a song, so you only want one of them in the end. Please tell us exactly what you did and what it is that you don't like.

    Download them to the computer to which the iPod is synced, re-sync.

  • HT4914 Once I deleted my music files can I get them back via I cloud? I have Itunes match on.

    Once I deleted my music files can I get them back via I cloud? I have Itunes match on.

    I actually deleted my backup :-) That's the problem. But thanks.
    I've managed to get some back but via a slightly different method.
    Because the files weren't there, when I deleted them from my library they actually disappeared from the list.... So I created a new library (backed up my original one) and then synched that with Match so that all the files appeared. I'm just going through the ones I'm missing clicking 'download' and then when they're all back on my hard drive I'll revert to the previous Library which will hopefully pick up all of the recovered files.
    Bingo!

  • I just downloaded the new iOS 5.0 and did all of the backup prompted steps beforehand, but I can't figure out how to get all of my apps and music back on my iPhone. Where did they go and how can I put them back on my iPhone?

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

    The blue circles next to the mivies do not apear anymore since last update , can i put them back to see wich movies un-watched.

    That happened because you synce'd your phone to a new computer, the phone can only be synce'd with one library. You can get all your songs back if they were puchased in itunes. Go to purchased in itunes store and download is at the bottom of the page.
