NEW IDEA- Visualization(s) to music

Well if you ever used Windows Media Player, it has visualizations in it that react to the music beats. This should be on I-touches. I think it would be a really great idea. Maybe if they decided to add it where would they put it? Would they add a "visualization player" icon on the music section. Dono these are all ideas im just throwing out there.
_*Itouch 2nd generation*_

You do know that Visualizer is a long-time feature in iTunes, right? Since (even before version 1.0) when iTunes was SoundJam MP.
Seems like having the screen backlight ON all the time plus loading up the processor cycles, just to watch the syncopated Visualizer show, would be an unacceptable drain on the limited battery power. It would be worse than playing videos.
But you can always suggest it here

And if the next version of the iPhone OS allows multi-tasking, I'm sure some developer will write a Visualizer app.

  • New computer, itunes 7 trouble, music saved on dvd--how to get it to work?

    I bought a new computer. On the prior computer had itunes 6. The music was saved on a data DVD, and it is also still on the ipod. New computer, installed itunes 7 and the same problems others had-- freezing and locking. Have yet to be able to put music on new computer.
    Much time spent. Uninstalled itunes 7 and reinstalled 6. Still with freezing. Uninstalled 6 and quick time and prior to that delelted ith .itl file. reinstalled 6. Was able to load a music cd into the library,as a trial, and it loaded. HOwever, when I tried the data dvd to reinstall the library, froze again. Currently have unistalled itunes, QT, and cant find andy ipooder update. I have a new itunes folder with itunes music library, itunes library.itl and and itunes music file in it. Within this file was the trial music (and therefore is a back up).
    1) any ideas on what to do to get itunes 6 running (and right). No itunes 7 for me until all the other problems figured out.
    2) if no answer to 1), is there a way to comtact tech suport at apple to get help. I cant even find that.
    Thanks
    Im running windows xp an a gateway with computer associates security.

    Sounds like a part of a plan. However:
    1.Should itunes work so I can use by CD/DVD
    drive--and how should I set up my itunes 6 so that it
    does work.
    2. Along the same line, since I dont have any music
    on my computer yet that I need to save or protect,
    and considering all the hassles I (and everyone) has
    had so far, any suggestions on what steps to take?
    Thanks
    Dale I'm not sure I understand your questions. I'll respond with what I think you may be asking.
    It should not make any difference if iTunes is installed and working in order to transfer files from your DVD to your hard drive.
    First create a new folder on your main drive and give it a name. Then put your DVD in your drive. In My Computer right click on the drive your DVD is in and chose Open or Explore. You should now see all the files that are on your DVD. At the top of this window select Edit and in the drop down menu click Select. All the files will highlight. Select Edit again and click Copy this time.
    Now go to the folder you created on your main drive. Right click on it and select Paste. All the files from your DVD should now transfer into the new folder you created. Depending on how many they are it may take a bit.
    I don't know what format these files are in as you never made any mention of that. If they were iTunes protected format you won't be able to use them without iTunes. If they are MP3 you should be able to play them using any player that is installed on your system that plays MP3 format.
    If these files were your entire iTunes Library before let me know.
    Sorry it took so long to reply. I was in the mist of a reformat and was offline for a bit.
    Hope that helps.

  • Using visualizer with live music

    I want to use the new visualizer with live music from a band and project on a screen. I was thinking to use a file that points to something else, but can't figure out how to do it.
    Any tips appreciated
    Thanks.

    Can't do it using iTunes.
    However, here -> http://www.soundspectrum.com/

  • Itunes 8 visualizer problems with music

    yeah i just got itunes 8 few days ago, and i was litening to music with the new visualizer on then i heard all sorts of cracking noises, even the music started to slow down. and it only cracks and slows down while i have the new visualizer on!
    i dont get it! how can the visualizer make the music crack to the point where it sounds like the speakers are going to expload, and how can it make the music slow down?
    how do i get ride of all the cracking and slow music with the new visualizer on?

    I have recently noticed problems with the visualizer on my brand new MacBook with 2.4GHz and 4GB or RAM; It won't render the effects some times. I have tried it with nothing else running except iTunes and it still will not work properly sometimes. I would post some pictures but it seems i am unable to. If you want to see them (2) than leave an email address for me to send them to.

  • I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling I must authorize this computer before it play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer.

    I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling me I must authorize this computer before it can play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer to play this music?
    Thank you for any assistance.

    Tigon's already got you covered here. But I'll chime in with some English localisation advice.
    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • Create new itunes account and transfer music on same computer

    I started an itunes account on my home computer which my niece would use. When she got a computer at her house, she also downloaded itunes. Instead of creating her own account, she used my account name and password. I purchase itunes cards instead of having my credit card number on my account. After loading the funds, I would return later to make a purchase and would not have any money left. I didn't think it was possible for her to have access to my funds at her home, since anything we added/purchased was not accessible at the others home. The last time I added money, I made a point to keep up with how much I used as a test to see if she was able to use my account balance. I tried to make a purchase this weekend and only had $.62, so apparently she can use it. She now needs to open a new itunes account on her home computer. Can she easily open a new account and transfer all music to the new account with playlists? Sorry this is so long...Your help is appreciated!

    She can (assuming she has a credit card, iTunes Music card or gift certificate) certainly open an account.
    But tracks purchased under your iTMS account will remain under your account and cannot be transferred to another account. The tracks can be copied to her computer - see:
    iTunes: How to copy music between authorized computers
    Though it refers to iTMS purchased music, it applies to all her tracks. And if she happens to also own an iPod:
    How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
    But her computer will have to be authorized to your account at least once for her system to be able to play the tracks she's already purchased. Once the system is authorized, you'll want to change your password to your iTMS account or she'll be able to continue to purchase using your account.

  • Recently bought  a new computer and all my music appears in iTunes as well as on my computer in a saved folder. When I try to play the music in iTunes I get an error that reads"the song could not be used because the original file could not be found."

    Recently bought  a new computer and all my music appears in iTunes as well as on my computer in a saved folder. When I try to play the music in iTunes I get an error that reads"the song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" Hope you can help me solve this issue.
    Thanks,

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • Two new IDE-Controllers after BIOS update, but not installable

    Hi there,
    i recently updated my bios to the latest version and now the following strange thing happens:
    when i boot my machine (875P NEO, P4 2.8 GHz, 1 GB RAM, 2 Otical drives at IDE0, 2 S-ATA drives at the S-ATA-controller, WIN XP SP), there are two new IDE (primary and secondary) Chanels to be found by the system.
    Windows seems to act normal as it states them "new device found" (all that in german as i live here and tries to install the proper drivers, i think.
    but then the new-devices-assistant pops up and tells me, that they cannot be installed because there are no drivers for my system.
    i even used the actual inf-drivers from the msi-site.
    that will happen at every start. in the hardware-manager there are both ide-devices marked as non-functional with a yellow sign in front of them with a exclamation mark in it.
    oh, and my office installation wants the same .cab-file from the installation-cd everytime i boot the system.
    the bios was the only thing changed.
    does anyone have an idea whatr to do?
    thanks in advance, cpo
    (hope that all is understandable

    yeah, seems like the same symptoms.
    my version was 3.6 from october 2004. Version 3.5 from september works fine except for the cpu temperature beeing displayed too high in bios...
    rollback to 2.5 did not work, still the same though i did not do the thing with the cmos-reset via jumper. will try this today...
