Need Help With Music File

I just got my ipod shuffle and i had all my music stored in- my documents/my music folder and i installed itunes and all that with the cd it came with. and it inported all my mp3 files. but i had a bunch of windows media files. i found a mp3 encoder and made them all mp3 for my ipod. but in itunes they dont show up. and any new songs i download dont show up only the ones that loaded when i installed it. how do i get my music on the library? do i have 2 move my music somewhere. srry im new 2 this thx for ur help

Hi there.
Any music you download with iTunes is automatically added to your library, so I'm not sure what is up with that without more info.
As for the other, when you converted the files outside of iTunes (it could have done it for you with unprotectd WMA files), you then needed to tell iTunes tere is new music.
To do this, choose add to library (add folder?), then navigate to the folder you want to add. Select it and iTunes will add all the new tracks in that folder to your library.
This needs to be done every time you use a program other than iTunes.

  • Need help with connecting file inputs to arrays

    In this assignment I have a program that will do the following: display a list of names inputed by the user in reverse order, display any names that begin with M or m, and display any names with 5 or more letters. This is all done with arrays.
    That was the fun part. The next part requires me to take the names from a Notepad file, them through the arrays and then output them to a second Notepad file.
    Here is the original program: (view in full screen so that the code doesn't get jumbled)
    import java.io.*;       //Imports the Java library
    class progB                    //Defines class
        public static void main (String[] arguments) throws IOException
            BufferedReader keyboard;                                  //<-
            InputStreamReader reader;                                 //  Allows the program to
            reader = new InputStreamReader (System.in);               //  read the the keyboard
            keyboard = new BufferedReader (reader);                  //<-
            String name;                 //Assigns the name variable which will be parsed into...
            int newnames;               //...the integer variable for the amount of names.
            int order = 0;              //The integer variable that will be used to set the array size
            String[] array;             //Dynamic array (empty)
            System.out.println (" How many names do you want to input?");   //This will get the number that will later define the array
            name = keyboard.readLine ();
            newnames = Integer.parseInt (name);                                         // Converts the String into the Integer variable
            array = new String [newnames];                                               //This defines the size of the array
            DataInput Imp = new DataInputStream (System.in);       //Allows data to be input into the array
            String temp;                                       
            int length;                                                                  //Defines the length of the array for a loop later on
                for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++)                                //<-
                {                                                                           //  Takes the inputed names and
                    System.out.println (" Please input name ");                            //  gives them a number according to
                    temp = keyboard.readLine ();                                           //  the order they were inputed in
                    array [order] = temp;                                                  //<-
                for (order = newnames - 1 ; order >= 0 ; order--)                                //<-
                {                                                                                //  Outputs the names in the reverse 
                    System.out.print (" \n ");                                                   //  order that they were inputed
                    System.out.println (" Name " + order + " is " + array [order]);             //<-
                for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++)                                  //<-
                    if (array [order].startsWith ("M") || array [order].startsWith ("m"))     //  Finds and outputs any and all
                    {                                                                         //  names that begin with M or m
                        System.out.print (" \n ");                                            //
                        System.out.println (array [order] + (" starts with M or m"));         //
                    }                                                                         //<-
                for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++)                                            //<-
                    length = array [order].length ();                                                   //
                    if (length >= 5)                                                                    //  Finds and outputs names
                    {                                                                                  //  with 5 or more letters
                        System.out.print (" \n ");                                                      //
                        System.out.println ("Name " + array [order] + " have 5 or more letters ");      //<-
    }The notepad file contains the following names:
    jim
    laruie
    tim
    timothy
    manny
    joseph
    matty
    amanda
    I have tried various methods but the one thing that really gets me is the fact that i can't find a way to connect the names to the arrays. Opening the file with FileInputStream is easy enough but using the names and then outputing them is quite hard. (unless i'm thinking too hard and there really is a simple method)

    By "connect", do you just mean you want to put the names into an array?
    array[0] = "jim"
    array[1] = "laruie"
    and so on?
    That shouldn't be difficult at all, provided you know how to open a file for reading, and how to read a line of text from it. You can just read the line of text, put it in the array position you want, until the file is exhausted. Then open a file for writing, loop through the array, and write a line.
    What part of all that do you need help with?

  • Need Help with .nnlp File.............A.S.A.P.

    I'm having a problem also with my JNLP file. I have downloaded the program onto one computer and that computer is using j2re1.4.2_04
    The other computers I believe are all running j2re 1.4.2_05
    I'm not sure if that's make a difference, but on the computer with j2re 1.4.2_05 when going to the site where the .jnlp file is located, the application comes up and says Starting Application. After it gets to that screen it just stays there. I really need help with this as soon as possible.

    This was due to a change in 1.4.2_05
    the main class attribute
    main-class="com/asisoftware/placewiz/loader/Exec">is wrong - it should be:
    main-class="com.asisoftware.placewiz.loader.Exec">this didnt seem to mater before 1.4.2_05, but some change in java since then caused this bad class specification to stop loading.

  • NEWBIE: Need Help Sending Music Files

    Everytime I try to send even a small music file (300 KB)... I get a "Message content exceeds size limit"
    Do I need to change my settings someplace?
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks
    MJ

    Unfortunately Patsfan, You cannot do anything to change this setting!
    This is a limitation that was set by your phone services provider network!
    MMS message are to only be allow to be sent over their network if the size is "LESS" than 300kb, you might be able to get away with "300kb exactly" but still it has to be within that size!
    If you notice when you are in video mode on your phone and go to options it gives you two "video formats" to choose from
    1 = normal mode
    2 = mms mode
    If you choose the first mode, you can record videos for as long as you want, granted you have a memory card that has the available space. But you most likely wont be able to send those videos using mms because they probably have gone over the 300kb size limitation for sending via MMS.
    If you choose the second mode, the videos that you record will stop at about 40-50 seconds or before the video size goes over 300kb.  And thats just the way it is.  This mode assures that all your videos will be under 300kb, and in a format that can be sent by mms GUARUNTEED.
    The only work around for this are mainly two things:
    1 - Send the video by email and not MMS.
    or
    2 - find some third party software that will allow you to work around these size limitations.
    Sorry I dont know any off hand. 
    But I hope this helps out!

  • Need help with moving files?

    I now have two challenges.  As a new user I need to know how to copy my iTunes files onto a USB stick.  I am not sure how to find the files, copy them or anything,  the second thing that I need to know is how to remove files from the desktop.  While trying to copy these same music files I clicked at the wrong time and now they are all piled up on the desk top.  There are 1800 files all piled up.  Just want these gone.  Thanks for any help.

    While trying to copy these same music files I clicked at the wrong time and now they are all piled up on the desk top.  There are 1800 files all piled up.  Just want these gone. 
    Click Finder and desktop. Assuming for simplicity that there are only the 1800 files on the desktop that you want to delete them (important that you have saved them somewhere else where you want them) .... click on the first one in the list to highlight it, then move to the last one in the list, hold the shift key and click on it to highlight it. All in between should also now be highlighted. Either drag that group to the trash or right click and choose move to trash. Then empty the trash.
    If you want to copy the files on the desktop to the USB stick, follow Niel's instructions above.

  • Need help attaching music files to PowerPoint presentation

    Hi. I've reached my frustration limit. I'm not even sure what quetion to ask. I'm trying to put together a .ppt slide show for my daughter's graduation... setting pictures to music. In order to do this, I must make the music files accessible from my hard drive. I purchased several ITunes but they came as MP4 files, which my computer can't play. I burned a CD, which plays... ripped the CD to the hard drive (and those files play), but .ppt won't recognize them.
    Is this a copyright issue? If so, is there a work-around? I'm not doing anything illegal... I just want to use them from one location, but that one location must be from my hard drive... not on a CD and not in an MP3 player.
    Please help. I'm just about frantic!
    Thanks SO much!
    PS: Is there a better option for me than ITunes? I'm guessing Limewire is illegal. Are there sites where I can purchase music to burn to my hard drive?
    Dell xps   Windows XP Pro  

    Hi! Thanks for your reply. The answers are:
    What are your settings for Disc Format in the
    iTunes Edit menu > Preferences >
    Advanced tab > Burning sub-tab?
    1. AUDIO CD
    And what are your settings for Import Using in
    the iTunes Edit menu > Preferences >
    Advanced tab > Importing sub-tab?
    2. AAC ENCODER
    Since I posted, I've moved the files around that I ripped, and they work in some locations and not others. Interesting... Can't make heads or tails of it. Just got off the phone for an hour with Dell who couldn't figure it out either.
    Seems that if I burn them to a CD, rip the files from the CD to the hard drive and then guess the right location to file them, it will work (at least intermittently).
    Thoughts?

  • Need help with music

    I have bought a used Ipod with music already on it and would like to keep some of the music. I know from former experiance with another Ipod that Itunes will automatically delete the songs since they are not in the current library. Is there any way to keep this music or will I have to just forget about it?

    You are unable to keep the music from the former user's music because it is not technically "stored" on your ipod device. (ipods are designed to erase and sync).
    THe music is actually stored on the former owner's computer. The same thing as your computer, usually on your C:/ drive (for windows) in a file. iTunes "locates" the file to place it into iTunes and sync it on your device.
    So the former owner's music and library is different than your library and music. iTunes and ipods are designed to detect the conflict in librarys.
    You have to erase and sync when it prompts you to. Sorry. You can't "add to" the former owners' library music, because you don't have it on YOUR computer.
    That would be copywrite infringement and technically "stealing".

  • Need help with backup files made by HP Recovery.

    So in 2011 I had made a post about a DV9 series HP laptop I had that I felt needed a harddrive. Well the laptop has been sold to a friend of mine and he has since fixed the issue it had. My curent deboggle is trying to deal with the 36GB of data it backed up onto an external USB powered harddrive. The information was saved from a system that ran Windows VISTA, on that same DV9 Pavilion. I have a new laptop and it's a Pavilion DV6 running windows 7. Is there some sort of 3rd party application or an uncommon HP utility that can open, run or modify. Specificaly I need to some files but not all, but if my only option is to extract all then that would be fine also. There is an executible in the backup folder but it doesn't extract anything it just locks up. 
    For the TLR portion, need to access backup files made on an older HP laptop with windows vista to a newer HP latop running windows 7.

    Terribly sorry for the post, I should have researched more before posting. I found the answer to my issue in another thread here on the HP forums! Thanks so much!!

    ...I've downloaded a music video which iTunes has put in my library under Music when I thought it would be under Movies. I can't move it to Movies, it won't let me. I can only transfer it to my iPod as a music file. How do get to watch it on my iPod?
    Thanks
    Andy

    I suggest copying your entire iTunes library to your new computer, also you might want to copy the photos you want to save. Then sync your device to the new iTunes and copy over your music, documents and photos that you want.
    If you are no longer going to use the old computer you should open up iTunes on the old computer and use the menu to deauthorize it. Be sure to use the same iTunes menu on your new computer to Authorize the new one.

  • Migrating from iMac CD to MBPC2D - Need Help with the FIle Migration

    I just ordered a refurb 2.4 MacBook Pro, which will replace my iMac Core Duo as my main machine. The iMac is running Tiger. I've decided that I only am concerned with migrating the following information from the iMac, and want some help on the best way to do this (paths/locations would be helpful too):
    -iPhone backups - to ensure my iPhone doesn't get wiped when it syncs. I will want to copy the last backup over to the MBP.
    -All iTunes Music and Movies
    I will then manually re-install VirusBarrier x4, MS Office, etc. I think this is better than trying to migrate everything over. What do you think?
    Edit: I also have a FireWire external hard-drive available to assist with this.
