Im doing a cut and splice project for a dance program for a friend. almost completed, ive imported all her songs and have cut the proper portions of the songs she wants and heave re exported to itunes. Perfect. But there are three tracks i that wont convert in garage band. i dont see anything different about their format. just mp3 files, Im not doing anything different from the other tracks.

If they are not songs purchased for the iTunes music store (which as Scott said, are copy protexted), then use the Never-Fail™ method to convert them:

    Restore your library from your most recent backup (you do keep regular backups, I hope).  If the hard drive is in any way salvageable it may be possible to mount it in an external enclosure, connect it to your PC, and retrieve data from it even if it is not functioning as a primary OS drive (if you don't have the kit necessary to do this, your local PC repair shop may be able to help).  Failing that, you can always recreate your library by re-importing your CDs.

  • When updating genius some songs from imported cds are not tagged to genius suggestion lists.

    All is fine now! Once genius has received your track information and has chance to digest it a fully functional, all encompassing set of genius mixes becomes, magically available. Love it!

    My situation is improving a little.  When I returned home I found that my imac went to sleep during the match process (I would think that the process would keep the imac awake, but I recommend people with large libraries disable energy saving features while Match is working).  When it completed the process the second time I tried, a LOT of the greyed out tracks returned to my iOS devices.  The only ones missing right now are the ones pending upload to the cloud.  I have a few tracks that I've purchased and are on my iMac HDD that are greyed out, but that list is down to 10-15 out of 12,000... so I can work on those when Match is done.
    I'm surprised that the iOS devices would restrict you from accessing sync'd content while Match is running - i.e. the content is already on the device.  However, it's error handling that must not currently exist in the service. 
    My biggest take away right now is the lack of information Apple provided on this service.  I'm using third-party tutorials online instead of a simple "what is Match and how does it work" document from Apple...  Documentation is still a must, especially for new and potentially complicated services like this.  I.E. tell me that you are going to restrict my access to my own content during this process, and that this process may take 2-3 days (still uploading).

  • HT5312 i need help with the security questions is there some way to get you to remind me what they were from e-mail or other wise

    I need help with the security Questions is there some way to get you to remember them by e-mail of other wise

    Read the HT5312 page that you posted from, it has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • Upgraded to win7 from xp. Now some songs will not play without signing into an old Itunes id account.

    Installed Windows 7 from XP. Downloaded itunes and imported the music library.
    Now some songs will not play until I authorize this computer by signing  in using an old apple id. Now when I do that the message says too many devices on that id.
    Is there a way to convert those songs to my current Apple id? Or is there a way to download them again under the new id?

    Content is permanently tied to the Apple ID that it was acquired with.
    If you desire the conent on your current Apple ID, purchase it with the current Apple ID.
    For future reference, do not create a new Apple ID simply because of a change of email address.  Instead, update the Apple ID with the new email address.

  • Need help coping song titles to clipboard

    I wanted to search for some info online about a song I have in Itunes. I like to just copy and paste to google the song title from itunes, but not all songs will let me copy. Some will, by doing a slow double click or going into info and coping the title. These are songs I ripped from CD's I purched and I am only wanting the text copy...not the mp3. Is there an option that lets you copy or change the names of songs in Itunes?

    Like I said above....when I do a slow double click, some songs will highlght in a box and let me cut or copy. Not all songs will highlight with a box when clicking twice to give me the copy option. I can also click once on some songs and go to info and make changes there, but the same songs that will not highlight with the box, will not let me change under info.

    Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

  • TS5376 I am hopeless, my computer will not uninstall itunes so i can reinstall! i really truly do need help! can someone please give me some guidance? i have tried almost everything and it is still not working!

    I really need help!!! my itunes 11.1.4 download really screwed my computer up! I have tried everything i can search for and i still cant uninstall itunes in order to reinstall. If anyone could please help me it would be muchhhhhhhhh appreaciated. Thanks!

    Carly,
    I went through the same thing. Searched again for another error I was seeing and found this help from Delgadoh and this finally fixed me! He mentioned this article: iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376.  But I had not read it.  I went straight to his instructions below.
    If you haven't already tried these steps:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer.
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects. 

  • NEED HELP FAST!! Importing stills into FCP 6

    Hello everyone,
    I have tried searching for a bit, but time is of the absolute essence. I am down to the wire on a project, and need to do some finishing things.
    What I need to do is to import still images (from DSLR) into an HD timeline. I am working in an HDV 1080i60 sequence at 29.97 fps. Here is what I am doing...
    - Import the particular image
    - Everything looks fine in the viewer when I double click on it
    - When I take it to the timeline though and open it in the canvas, it looks like absolute sh**. The colors look fine I suppose, but it looks incredibly pixelated.
    I have tried exporting the video, thinking that it might just be in the canvas, but that didn't fix anything.
    So, it is not a problem with rendering, as some have said where I have searched... It could be a problem with size, but I am not sure.
    If anyone knows anything, please post in here or PM me asap. Thank you for your help in advance.
    Cheers,
    Ryan

    When you load an image or clip from the Browser into the Viewer, it is displayed at it's native resolution. But once you place it in the Timeline, it displays at the FCP Sequence resolution. Also note that the image will need to be rendered FULLY before viewing. Go to the Sequence->Render menus and make sure all render types are checked ... especially FULL.
    Also keep in mind that FCP's Canvas window only shows a proxy of full quality.

  • I need help. How to export split track for Final Cut Pro 7 Thanks

    I need help. I have edited a film and now the company I have made the film for want a split track of it. I have no idea how to export a split track off Final Cut Pro 7 and I need simple language to explain it to me as I am a beginner. Thanks

    I assume you have multiple tracks of audio? And the audio is distributed discretely over these tracks (sync sound on tracks 1 and 2, sound effects on tracks 3 and 4, music on tracks 5 and 6 for example)?
    Then duplicate your sequence by clicking on the icon for your sequence in the FCP browser and control-clicking on it. From the drop-down menu choose Duplicate. Double click on the duplicate sequence you just created to load it to the timeline and canvas.
    Now, working on the copy you just made of your finished sequence, click anywhere on the timeline, and type Command + 0 {zero} to bring up your sequence settings. Click on the Audio Outputs Tab.
    Once the Audio Output Tab opens, set the Outputs to the desired number of discrete tracks you want to export - in this case I will set it to 8, as I have sync sound on tracks 1 & 2, Voice Over on tracks 3 & 4, Sound Effects on tracks 5 & 6 and Music on tracks 7 & 8.
    Once I do that the 8 tracks appear. I set them all to Dual Mono as I want them to be discrete tracks:
    Once I am done, I click OK and return to the far left side of the timeline where the audio selectors are, and carefully control - clicking in the empty space above the lock symbol,
    From the drop down menu I assign the output of each track - track 1 to to output track 1, track 2 to output track 2, doing so to each track:
    You need to set the output for each track. Once all my track assignments are done, I go to the menu File > Export . . . > QuickTime Movie and export my sequence, but now it is exporting with 8 discrete tracks of audio.
    To do a quick check that everything is OK, re-import the movie you just exported back into FCP, and open it in the Viewer and you will see that it does indeed have the multi-tracks, as 8 mono track tabs appear at the top of the viewer.
    Now give that QuickTime a name that includes "Split Tracks" in the title and copy it to your delivery drive.

  • I DESPERATLY NEED HELP TRANSFERING SONGS FROM IPOD TO ITUNES LIBRARY

    hi my computer crashed downstairs and i need help moving all my songs from my ipod to my itunes library, on the other computer...will someone please help me?

    Hello Markatkis,
    Make sure your not connecting it to more than one PC. A new iPOd is set to "Auto Update" by default. With this setting all you do is plug the iPOd into the PC and iTUnes automaticly opens, loads all the songs it has listed in iTunes to the iPod, and after its done, ejects the iPOd.
    If you connect it to another PC tho with iTUnes on it you usually get a promtp that in short says "iPOd library linked to another PC, do you want to link to this one" if you click yes, it wipes the iPOd clean and loads only whats on that PC.
    Since your new to all of this a great place for you may be the "iPod 101" site. It will show you all the bacis ropes of using your iPOd, using iTUnes, and using them both together. http://www.apple.com/support/ipod101/

  • Some Songs Will Not Play Even After Being Authorized

    Just this past weekend, I had to reinstall Tiger and then upgrade to Leopard due to a “kernel panic” that would not go away no matter what was tried. As such, iTunes was started from scratch. Unfortunately, I could not locate my iTunes library within the Previous System folder after this reinstall. In all honesty, I probably just didn’t know where to look.
    So, I transferred my music from my iPod to my iMac. But, some of my songs will no longer play. The songs that will not play are songs that I purchased and downloaded from iTunes. However, the recent songs purchased and downloaded will play…it’s songs that were purchased and downloaded a few months ago. Strange.
    When I click these songs a box pops up for me to authorize it. I do so and it says that this computer is already authorized. I click on the song again and the same thing repeats itself.
    I have two accounts that I have used. I have both accounts authorized on this computer. I have restarted with no success. I have unauthorized and reauthorized with no success. I’m afraid to sync my iPod in case these same characteristics transfer to my iPod.
    I have not updated Leopard to the latest version as of yet since I just reinstalled from the disc orginally sent with my iMac. Any help is greatly appreciated as I’m out of ideas…

    I had the exact same problem today. Two days ago I let Software Update auto-install Security Update 2008-008 (Client Intel) on my machine. I was rewarded with the gray screen and spinning wheel that never went away, and after hours of fruitless attempts to resolve the problem with Disk Utility and Terminal, I was forced to Archive and Restore to 10.4.8 and then rebuild my system back to 10.4.11.
    I thought everything was fine after that until I went to play my iTunes music tonight. Though I'd had no problem playing music ripped from CDs, anything that I'd bought from the iTunes store wouldn't play -- it gave me the exact same error that you reported. I've followed all of Apple's troubleshooting steps -- repairing disk permissions, deleting the SC Info folder, etc., and nothing worked. I spent nearly an hour online with iTunes Chat Support and they say that my account tests fine on their end, so it's not iTunes -- something must have happened to my machine.
    Personally, I think it was Security Update 2008-008. It's been nothing but trouble.
    Now I have to pay $50 for a phone call to Apple Tech Support. Lucky me.

  • Help.  Songs will not play!!!

    My origional computers hard drive crashed and is no longer able to turn on.  So I have a few thousand songs with a ! infront of them on Itunes, and as we all know these songs will not play.  If I buy Match, will these songs with ! be converted and be able to be used again?

    This is definately a firmware problem.
    I have a 80gb ipod that does the same and narrowed the problem down to taking the headphones out and plugging them or another set in. It doesn't happen every time but happens often enough when you use it everyday like me. Like you I have a headphone jack for my car.
    I replaced the ipod at the apple service centre after finally being able to replicate the problem for them to see. Unfortunately my new one does exactly the same.
    The only ways around it are -
    Do a reset
    or
    Hold down play so that it turns off. Unplug the headphones. Press play without the headphones in. The track will start playing. Plug the headphones back in.
    Apple need to look into this problem as there are a fair number of people experiencing it.

  • Need help with java will even pay

    I need extreme help. I just don't have time lately to write these programs and I have fallen extremely behind. Basically all I need is to pass this class and right now until I can get some more help I just can't make the deadlines. If someone could help me I will pay you just like a tutor.
    Requirements for Lab.
    You will need to develop a variety of classes for this lab. Specifically, you need to create:
    +1. a "PersonGUI" class that displays fields for a person's: firstName, lastName, identificationNum, and sex.+
    +2. a "StudentGUI" class that provides Java components for the entry of: classification (freshman, sophomore, junior, senior, or graduate student), and Checkboxes for (a student being in the Honor's program and/or in the ROTC).+
    +3. a "FacultyGUI" class that provides Java components for the entry of: rank (instructor, assistant, associate, or full professor), years of service, and salary.+
    +4. a "Statistics" class that, when instantiated, creates an object containing an instance variable for each of the the statistical values outlined below. (Each of these instance variables should be declared to be "private".)+
    Your main Lab6 class should provide a means for the user to:
    +1. Specify the kind of personal data to be entered (Student or Faculty), and+
    +2. Then, depending on the choice made, appropriate fields should be displayed to allow the user to input appropriate information for the type of personal data being entered, and+
    +3. Controls that support the following functionality:+
    * a "CANCEL" control that will terminate any operation currently being performed and return the user to the "Startup" window.
    * a "SAVE" control that will cause the just entered data to be harvested from the graphical user interface and the appropriate statistics to be updated. Note: this function may NOT be performed if any of the student or faculty member data fields have not been filled in.
    * a "RESET" control that will erase all information recorded to date (i.e., all summary variables are reset to zero).
    * a "CLEAR" control that will erase all fields for the personal data currently being entered.
    * and a "DISPLAY TOTALS" control that will display, when pressed, the following data:
    +1. For students:+
    +1. total number of students entered so far,+
    +2. number who are male and number who are female,+
    +3. number of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors, and graduate students,+
    +4. number of students who are in the Honor's program and number who are in the ROTC.+
    +2. For faculty:+
    +1. total number of faculty entered so far,+
    +2. number who are male and number who are female,+
    +3. the name and salary of the highest paid faculty member on campus.+
    Your program should validate numeric data to the extent:
    +1. no numeric field (id number, years of service, or salary) may be left blank by the user. If done so, the user should be alerted to enter a numeric value.+
    +2. when the user enters a "years of service" value for a faculty member - the value entered should be verified to be a valid integer value in the range 1 to 50. If the data entered is outside the valid range or is not a valid integer - your program should reject the value and prompt the user that invalid data has been entered and that a new value is necessary.+
    +3. when a faculty salary is entered, verify that it is a floating-point value in the range $35,000 to $200,000. Handle invalid data as described above.+
    +4. Similarly, if an invalid integer value is entered for the identification number, the value should be rejected and the user prompted to reenter.+
    +5. Information should not be saved, nor should statistical values be updated, until all numeric data has been validated.+
    Note -- You will be graded on appropriate use of instance vs. local variables, use of methods, and passing parameters and returning appropriate values.
    +1. The 'Statistics" class MUST provide "mutator" and "accessor" methods that are required to access values or to modify the values of any variable. REMEMBER ALL VARIABLES ARE DECLARED TO BE "private"!!+
    +2. You should implement methods to verify the data, as detailed above. The methods should return boolean values indicating whether the data is acceptable or not.+

    Sorry to hear about your problems - lack of time, having fallen behind, imminent failure etc - but none of these are Java problems.
    This site deals with Java problems: compiler or runtime behaviour that people can't understand. If you have problems of that sort (and especially if solving those problems would help with the problems you did describe) then post them.
    Otherwise you would seem to be in the wrong place.
