Music Import via optical connector

Hi,
I tried to get the old music stuff from my minidisc player imported via optical cable, because I wanted to keep the songs separated in multiple files. However using the optical connection the entire minidisc is imported as one single entire "song" (file). Okay with audacity I can separate the files manually but this a quite poor solution. Any ideas?
Thank you!

Photo orientation importing via Camera Connector

Hi all.
I've got my first iPod (iPod video, 30 gB, black): it's great.
I also got the camera connector, and I have tried to import photo from my camera. It works fine, but the portrait photos appear in landscape: is it possible to automatically change the orientation?
Thanks,
Roberto

Music imported via passport drive is not playable

My brother and I jointly own a bunch of jazz CD's. In the past he has burned them into his iTunes. Now I have gotten an ipod and he copied them into a portable hard drive - a "passport" - and I have copied them into my iTunes. But when I try to synch the ipod or even move any of the individual songs into a playlist, they will not. There is a symbol to left of each song - an exclamation point - and the explanation says "The song can't be located; it may have been moved or deleted." Any suggestions?

File>add folder to library will add contents of folder to library including folders inside folder selected. Select an artist folder to import all albums and tracks for artist. Select album folder to import tracks for album.
This may or may not create duplicates in library if you import something that is already in library. Have not tried that.

HT4437 I'm using an ATV2 and an ipad successfully for with airplay. Now I added a brand new ipod touch to the setup. However, for some reason airplay for music doesn't work if my projector connected via HDMI2DVI connector is turned off.

If I turn on the projector it works fine. Interesting fact is, that this is exactly the same behavior that I have when playing videos from the iPad. Worth to mention is that the ATV2 is connected to the speakers via optical cabIe. Is there a setting that I'm missing? I can't imagine that Airplay for music from the iPod requires a turned on Video device connected to the ATV2. Thanks.

Hy Alley_Cat, that was the last bit on information that I wanted to add to the question. All devices say they are up to date. Which means that iPad and iPod run 5.0.1 and ATV 2 4.4.4(3330).

My apple TV is connected to a DTV with an HDMI cable and to my Yamaha receiver via optic cable. We rented a movie on Apple TV and.found that the movie played, but we only got audio for music tracks. Voice tracks were silent using both TV and receiver.

My apple TV is connected to a DTV with an HDMI cable and to my Yamaha receiver via optic cable. We rented a movie on Apple TV and.found that the movie played, but we only got audio for music tracks. Voice tracks were silent using both TV and receiver. This only occurred on the rented video and on recorded shows on my cable DVR. previews and other content on Apple TV are fine. Any ideas??

Previews and trailers do not contain 5.1 audio.
If you have recently moved your setup, you may have inadvertently changed some of the settings on your receiver. It certainly sounds as though it is unable to play the 5.1 audio from the Apple TV.

Can anyone help me move video from Sony HDR-XR550 to ipad 3gs via camera connector kit?

You can use iPhoto for the import. iLife apps are integrated. From within iMovie you have direct access to iTunes for adding music, and iPhoto for photos and videos in the iPhoto library.
Or you can use the Image Capture application for the import if you prefer placing such imports into manually created folders and not using iPhoto.

Xserve audio out via Optical?

Hi,
I am a bottom feeder of Apple goods, which has been a successful strategy for me for decades.
I am using an Xserve (Late '06), running snow leopard server to host a lot of different services (DNS,Mail,Files,Video,Audio, Etc).
Lately I have been thinking about adding a home theater. Since my movie's are residing on the Xserve, I was thinking I would love use that to push my TV and (wait for it) my audio.
So, obviously, the xserve has no audio out. I have been exploring the various options to get this working, with limited success. I have an old Onkyo USB based Stereo out box, which works great for stereo.
I purchased the generic looking Sewell USB Sound Box (which can be viewed in all it's glory here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004Y0ERRO/ref=pe_175190_21431760_M3T1_SC_dp_1)
This box works well for what it is (ie cheap), BUT it appears it is only able to drive the 5.1 setup through analog from unencoded sources. So, if you have a file on your mac that is a 5.1 audio file it will play fine through this USB Box. BUT any encoded content (Like any real media playback) doesn't work.
So, to make a long story short, I need to find a way to get the raw audio from my xServe to an optical connector, and then to a Surround receiver.
IS THERE ANY know solution to go from USB or FW to Optical audio on a Mac? The Sewell Box and MANY others have this feature, but the software to switch it on isn't available for OSX.
Thanks for ideas,
Marty
PS I did already upgrade the video card in my xserve with a flashed PC Radeon HD2600Pro.

you could install xbmc for mac on another box and connect it to your TV
and use it to stream movies music etc from the xserve
as well as airplay from IOS devices
Xbmc is free

Following a software update, I can no longer access/authorise music purchased via iTunes from my old Apple ID, which I have not used for 8 years, and no longer have password. Any ideas how I can re-access/recover that music?

Can't see some Business Rules after running the Import via LCM

I am trying to migrate our Business Rules down from Prod to Dev to get them back in sync. Here is the steps I have run:
Export ALL Business Rules and Sequences from Prod via LCM
I confirmed the export directory contains an .xml file for EACH Rule.
copied the export directory down to Dev Shared Services server
Turned on DEBUG for Shared Services
Deleted ALL Business Rules and Sequences from Dev EAS BR repository
I confirmed that ALL BUsiness Rules are listed and checked in LCM Import.
run the Import from Dev Shared Services via LCM
I get a Completed successfully message. No Errors.
I Refresh Rules in Dev EAS and I only see 25% of the Business Rules listed.
I have tried to Stop/Restart the EAS services and still nothing.
I confirmed that the ID I am using to Export / Import has access on each Business Rule either directly or via a Group that has access.
Any thoughts??
Thanks in advance for any assistance on this!
Robert

Thanks John!
I was really trying to get it done via LCM since I have all other migrations being done there. but I ended up taking your advice and doing it the old fashion way via EAS export.
To answer your questions:
We are on 11.1.1.3
I did not see any problems in the Services logs for EAS. Nothing that stood out.
We are migratiing 66 Rules and 15 Sequences.
We are using Weblogic instead of Tomcat.
Even though I have a workaround for the issue I am still interested in understanding why some of them did not import via LCM. You mentioned that you might consider adjusting some config settings. What settings would you recommend looking at?
Thanks again John!
Robert

'12 Mini to Older Receiver via Optical - Can't get 5.1 Surround

Yet another "Can't get surround sound via Toslink" question...
System:
2012 Mac Mini
Video to Sharp HDTV via HDMI
Audio to Pioneer VX-D608 Receiver via Optical
I have the cables connected properly. Video is flawless. Audio is being transmitted to the receiver, which "sees" an AC-3 or DTS signal and automatically switches into those modes according to the format encoded with the files. But for some reason, I am only getting sound out of the front speakers.
I have tested the receiver and all (5.1) speakers are functional.
It is as if I am only sending the front right and front left signals via AC-3 or DTS.
I have spent about 40 hrs playing with various audio software arrangements, including Plex, VLC, Perian (AC-3/DTS passthrough), Soundflower and Soundflowerbed routing.
Currently, in Audio MIDI Setup I am using the "Built-In Output", set to Encoded Digital Audio. The Format appears to switch depending on the file I am playing. The speakers can only be configured to Stereo, none of the surround options present themselves, which I understand is OK because the AC-3 or DTS is passed to the receiver via an encoded stereo signal.
My VLC player is playing an AC-3 or DTS track, and the output is set to the Built-In Output (Encoded).
As I mentioned, the receiver "sees" DTS or AC-3, but the sound won't come out all 5.1 speakers even though I know they are functioning.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!!

If the receiver is seeing an AC-3 or DTS signal, it indicates
that the software is passing through the encoded audio.
These streams cannot be altered or manipulated, especially DTS
which is a very tightly licensed codec, by the software or the Mini.
So, if the receiver is seeing the digital audio as AC-3 or DTS, the problem is
not with the Mini.

How can i record a song in a karaoke music track via GB?

First plug in some headphones.
Then drop the karaoke song into garageband. You do this by just draging and dropping the song file into garageband or if the song is in itunes just use garagebands media browser.
Now create another track (vocal track).
Put headphones on hit record and sing.
This is a bit over simplifed but give it a try someone will be here when you have more specific problems.

Adobe Flash Player and Amazon Music Importer

My Adobe Flash Player is enabled and up to date, but every time I try to install Amazon Music Importer, it says there is a downloading error. Please help?

Read Before Posting: How To Get A Useful Answer To Your Question

I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts,music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes - is this because of the different operating systems?

Can anyone please help

Hi Pa23from Argyllshire,
This error: I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts, music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes should not occur.
The best guess is this crash is caused due to an issue with the PC.
Make sure your iPad is updated to the latest operating system: iOS 7.0.4 and make sure iTunes is updated to iTunes 11.
iTunes 11 is optimised for iOS 7, so if you have an iOS 7 device and non iTunes 11 computer, life would be hard.
Try to update iTunes to 11.1.3 from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Even try uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing. iTunes will not lose any of your iTunes songs when your un-install it as iTunes stores every media item in a folder found in (or around): C:\Users\NAME\Music\iTunes
Obviously iTunes and iDevices work best using Mac iTunes however; iTunes 11 and iOS 7 iPad Mini should work fine.
In summary possible solutions:
1.       Update iPad Mini to iOS 7 or better (iOS 7.0.4)
2.       Update iTunes to iTunes 11.1.3
3.       Restart both PC and iPad
4.       Uninstall iTunes from PC
Many Thanks, Happy New Year and I look forward to hearing from you regarding this crash!
