My files were changed

I am a radio disc jockey, and I put a lot of effort storing individual tunes onto my computer in the form of mp3 and wav extensions for the purpose of making my own cd compilations, which I use on my radio program.
When I installed itunes software it changed ALL my files to m4p extensions.
The equipment at the radio station does not recognize that format. Therefore I need to change ALL MY FILES BACK TO mp3, wav files. How can I do this easily and costlessly?

If talking about having converted your files, your surely mean converted to *.m4a not *.m4p.
m4p are protected files - such as you can buy from iTMS; iTunes can't convert files to m4p.
Anyway iTunes doesn't convert files when adding them to the library.
So - referring to your description - I'm not sure about hat really happened.

  • List content type columns don't show new names after resource files were changed

    Hello,
    we ran into a problem, that we're not able to figure out at the moment.
    We have a site collection with site columns and site content types defined and created with
    features ant their XML files. All display names are retrieved from resource files. We do have
    several subsites, that have predefined lists also created from features and their corresponding
    XML files. They use inherited versions of these site content types as list content types with
    their columns inherited from the site columns.
    We had some changes within the resource files and never ran into a problem up to now.
    We changed the display names of some of these columns within the resource files. After
    these changes the site columns, site content types and list columns show the changes
    as planned. Unfortunately the columns of the list content types do not display the changes.
    They still show the old name. If you try to alter the old names manually the new name is
    shown within the form, but you're not able to save it and the list content type columns
    still have their old name afterwards.
    We checked our definition files and they seemed to be well.
    Any ideas?
    Regards,
    Markus
    List columns as defined within new the resource file:
    List content type columns, that do not show the changes from the new resource file:

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to modify the site column name in the list.
    I try to reproduce the issue, however, everything works well.
    You can modify the DisplayName in the Element.xml file.
    Then after you redeploy the project, the site column name will be changed in the list setting page.
    In addition, please check whether you create the list correctly.
    For more information, you can refer to

  • I replaced my hard drive and I backed up my files on an external hard drive but when I reloaded my iweb to my imac none of my files were on it so I can't make changes to my Published web site have I lost my files what can I do

    I replaced my hard drive and I backed up my files on an external hard drive but when I reloaded my iweb to my imac none of my files were on it so I can't make changes to my Published web site have I lost my files what can I do

    By default iWeb keeps its data in (user)/Library/Application Support/iWeb in a file named Domain. Without this file you cannot proceed (other than by recreating the site from scratch using the published version as a reference) so you need to locate it on the original disk.
    To confuse matters, Apple have hidden the user’s Library folder in Lion and Mountain Lion to casual viewers, in an attempt to stop new Mac users messing their machines up. To access it, in the Finder go to the ‘Go’ menu and hold down the Option (Alt) key; the Library folder will appear as a choice.

  • I have recently changed from a macbook to macbook pro and all my files were saved on time machine but some won't open. It says I need permission.. How do I open them?

    I have recently changed from a macbook to macbook pro and all my files were saved on time machine but some won't open. How do I open them?

    Are you trying to open the backup files via the Finder or an application?  If so, that's not how you should access your backups -- use the "Star Wars" display, per #15 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
    How did you get your stuff on the new Mac? 
    It sounds like you may have skipped the offer to transfer it when your Mac first started up, created a user account, then used the Migration Assistant app instead.  If so, that may be the problem;  doing it that way means you end up with an extra user account, and can lose permission to files on other volumes, especially backups.
    Please clarify just what you're seeing, and whether you still have the old Mac.

  • My Excel files were imported as read only files how can I change these

    I am a new Mac user. When my excel files were copied over from my MS PC they have come over as read only files. How can i change these to "normal" files as they were on my PC? Thanks

    More info:
    Version: 10.6.8
    Format: Mac OS Extended
    Sharing & Permissions:
    system - Read & Write
    admin - Read & Write
    everyone - Read only
    When I click the lock in the bottom right corner it prompts me for my password but after unlocking it it doesn't allow me to change privelages or give me any new permissions.

  • Help fixing some changes discovered after external hard drive files were recovered.

    My external hard drive files were rescued and placed on a new one.  I have 2 issues that I need to resolve.  Most important, in many of the files, up to half the RAW image files were returned converted to a CR2 symbol.  I can't open them or upload them.  Aperture tells me that the images aren't supported.  They weren't this way before the recovery.  I need to be able to open and work with these files, again.  I'm not sure how random files were converted during the recovery process. But, I sure need a solution, to get them to open again.  
    Second problem, hopefully simpler to solve.  Is there a way to tell Aperture that the files connected with the previews have been relocated?  It's looking for the files in a location that no longer exists.  I could start all over again, and upload each album, which will take a long time.  I'm hoping there is a way to avoid this.

  • All my excel files were converted to pdf. Why would this happen and how do i stop it from doing so?

    Relax, they weren't converted to PDF.
    You can tell by right clicking ANY of them and choosing "Properties". You'll see there that they're STILL .xls or .xlsx files. The "association" has changed and Windows now indicates that they open with Reader, which isn't right.
    Where it says "Open With" under the General tab, you can click "Change" and re-select Excel as the default app to open thim.

  • I have two graphics workers on osx 8.  They are both complaining that their files are changing label colors on it own.  Any idea what could cause this?

    I have two graphics workers on osx 8.  They are both complaining that their files are changing label colors on it own.  Any idea what could cause this?

    and there were and have been problems with any two nvidia cards which was the main part of my question.
    To provie details try pasting all but serial number from system profile. Sorry but Mac Pro tells me nothing, not model, year, or what graphic card it came with or updated with.

  • Migration Assistant - All of the files were not transferred

    I transferred all the user files, settings and applications using migration assistant. I went from an intel iMac to a newer intel iMac. Snow Leopard to Lion. I checked everything in the migration assistant except for the iPhoto library of one of the users because it was too big for the main hard drive of the new computer. I copied it manually to the secondary hard drive.
    At the end of the migration a window said that not all of the files were transferred and I should check to make sure I have everything I need. (I'm not sure the exact wording). Below that it said that a static IP was transferred and I should not have both the old computer and the new one on the network with the same IP.
    Do you think it's just referring to the iPhoto library when it says all files were not transferred? Or could there be something else. Is there a log that I can look at that will tell me what might not have transferred?
    As far at the IP thing, I changed the static IP on the new computer so that's fine.

    Hard to say. I suggest that you peruse Pondini's Setup New Mac guide and determine if you did things the right way.

  • Lightroom 4.2.  unable to import. message files were not imported because they cannot be read

    Lightroom crisis:
    suddenly, unable to import images into lightroom - A window comes up that says ""Following files were not imported because they cannot be read". I was in the process of importing images - 10 images were imported from the shoot then the import stopped.
    I tested the card and the card readers by using cards from different cameras and using different card readers. I was able to import the images into a folder on my desktop so know nothing is corrupted.. The memory cards are good, my card readers are good. no setting have changed in my camera. Nothing has changed in my routine. Have been using lightroom for several years.
    I import through a card reader, convert to DNG and save on an external hard drive. All very ordinary.
    No one I have contacted has had nor knows of anyone who has had this problem.
    Unable to get in touch with anyone at Adobe.
    Thank you for any help or direction to tec support

    On a quick read, it sounds like the same issue that had me dead in the water for 7 days. (LR 4.2)  I tested everything - my card readers are good, the memory cards are not corrupted, tried different cards from different cameras,etc. Working my way through all my tech savvy friends and professionals, I was lucky to connect with a great sr. tech person at Adobe.  After trouble shooting  all lightroom possibilities (3 hours on the phone) we checked my external hard drive where all the images are stored.  Even tho the external hard drive had plenty of space and "told me" that it was healthy and functioning well, Adobe had me go into the external hard drive's properties/tools and do a "check for errors.  12 hours later after the program went though the drive one file at a time, it found errors, moved them to a separate folder, and now all is functioning OK.  The hard drive had not crashed nor were any images lost.  As can happen after some time there must have been a scratch or similar that prevented more images from being written  (or read) to the drive.  Even though all is working OK at this time, I will replace my external hard drive (and it's back up external drive).just in case there are more "bumps" on the external hard drive.
    My tech knowledge is limited, and I am not intuitive  about anything digital, so can't add any more information then the experience I had.

  • I performed a time machine backup without plugging my labtop into a power source. My computer died and all the settings were changed, ie the clock and date were changed back to 2001. So I tried to restore my computer using a previous time machine backup.

    I performed a time machine backup without plugging my labtop into a power source. My computer died and all the settings were changed, ie the clock and date were changed back to 2001. So I tried to restore my computer using a previous time machine backup. (which I now know was wrong). However, when time machine tried to restore it said there was not enough room to do a backup. It seems that it did a half backup because some essential  files such as system profiler are now missing. Can I undo this restore...? What can I do to fix this

    You need to do a full system restore, per Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #14.
    If that sends a message, please note the exact wording.

  • OH! ...look, my filenames were changed... does it matter?

    Heres something odd i have just noticed...
    using dos the contents of my directories "used" to look like this:
    c:\jEdu\JHTP\chptr3>dir
    Ex3_1 (.java file)
    Ex3_1 (.class file)
    Ex3_2
    Ex3_2
    Ex3_3
    Ex3_3
    Ex3_4
    Ex3_4
    then using explorer i rearranged my dir names & copied my workinto my
    new directory structure...and my filenames were changed...
    c:\jEdu\JHTP\exerc\chptr3>dir
    Ex3_1~1 java
    Ex3_1~1 class
    Ex3_2~1
    Ex3_2~1
    Ex3_3~1
    Ex3_3~1
    Ex3_4~1
    Ex3_4~1
    i know that the ~ means that the filename was too long...
    but as you can see i have short filenames, i deliberately picked short filenames based on chapter & exercise numbers to explicitly avoid this problem... so what has happened that my filenames in dos have ~ added to them? In explorer they do not show the ~, they show the old names like
    Ex3_2 java file (forte)
    ...i dont know.. does it matter?
    have re-installed jdk & still havin trouble executing applets...
    ...trying to work out the bug, lets not go over whats wrong with the applet code... did that stuff all last week.

    What you're seeing is normal. My 98SE uses a "~" in all .java and .class names (even short ones) when viewing the names in DOS. This is due to the truncation of .java to .jav and .class to .cla.
    Examples:
    Long File Name ==> DOS File Name
    AnyLongName.java ==> ANYLON~1.JAV
    OtherLongName.class ==> OTHERL~1.CLA
    Button.java ==> BUTTON~1.JAV
    Actor.class ==> ACTOR~1>CLA
    ABC.java ==> ABC~1.JAV
    A.java ==> A~1.JAV

    Hi
    Thanks this has helped me solve the problem.
    I used the Outlook Anywhere connectivity tester you suggested. Selected Outlook autodiscover.
    It told me that it could not resolve things on any of the 4 tests.
    I saw that using the last test "Attempting to contact the Autodiscover service using the DNS SRV redirect method", was the only one likely to work in my case.
    I had already changed 3 entries in dns to point at my DDNS address but this had not worked, from the errors I could see that it was just the certificate name not matching so I changed the DNS entries for Autodiscover, autoconfig and _autodiscover._tcp
    to be webmail.domain.com which is a CNAME to my ddns address for the broadband router, which in turn forwards ports 80 and 443 to the exchange server for owa and activesync access. I got an error message saying that I had an illegal entry in my SRV record
    as a CNAME is not allowed, but it saved the change anyway.
    I reran the test and it worked.I can now make new outlook clients attach teo exchange.
    Thank you, after 8 hours yesterday of trying to reolve this I suddnely got it to work on one laptop but the other still would not and had lost track of what I could have changed so had no idea what actually made it work.
    Thank you for your suggestion.

  • File Icons changed in Mavericks. How do I change them back?

    I am on a MacBook Pro and, since upgrading to Mavericks, the file icons in the finder have become generic grey icons with the file extension on them. I can no longer see the Word files with little blue icons, Excel file icons with little green icons etc. Weirdly, I can still see the colored file icons in Coverflow view and in List view, but not in Columns and Icons. I can also see the colored file icons when selecting a file to attach to an email. In the file information window (clicking command I when a file is highlighted) the icon in the top left corner is the colored file icon.

    Well this solution did not work for the Icon View.  All the other views show the correct icon (and might have before I changed all view types in Get Info > File Options > Uncheck Show Icon Preview
    This worked for fixing the Icon View for me.  Pages and Numbers files were fine but not my FileMaker files or Word or Excel (and maybe more).  I opened Get Info on one FileMaker document.  Just below the Red Yellow Green dots at the top is a tiny icon to the left of the file name.  Left click on the icon which looks basically white).  You will see a thin blue line around the icon.  Go up to the Menu Bar (File Edit View etc) and click on Edit then copy.  Then go to the same icon you just copied on the Get Info window and left click then do Edit again from the Menu Bar and Paste.  You can also use the shortcuts cmmand c or command v to copy and paste.  For some magical reason coping a white icon pasted the correct preview to the icon. 
    Every single icon of programs that won't display icons properly will have to be fixed this way.  I was thinking about using search for file type and grinding it out like orcs or wargs in Lord of the Rings Online.  Apple this isn't a good way to make me have Determination.
