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 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?

    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 transferring Music Files & Playlist from Mac Book to iMAC

    I am having difficulty transferring my music files and playlists from my Macbook to my iMAC. All of the music goes over well but the playlists, comments and ratings do not. Any assistance in this area would be greatly appreciated.

    Copy the entire \Music\iTunes\ folder from your MacBook to your iMac.
    The link posted by WoggleDog deals only with moving the iTunes music folder on one computer to a different location to use on that same computer.

  • 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.

    From my little knwledge, it is not possible to insert FLV
    file in the HTML page directly.For this you have to made a player
    with flash which plays the FLV.And this swf can emdded in the HTML
    page.
    You can also download free flash videoplayers like JW Player.

  • *** Need help recovering music on iPod/iTunes ***

    * Need help recovering music on iPod/iTunes *
    I bought my iPod 30G when it first came out back in the day. With the protective case it looks like a Walkman, if you know what that is. The new ones are half the thickness of my old skool one. lol!
    Anyway, years ago I accidently uploaded a virus in both my PC and laptop. Yeah, real *******. Well, the person who restored my computers couldn't save my music. I still have the iPod but my library on iTunes is gone. If I try to update my iPod in either computer it will erase every song I have on it and only upload the songs/album I'm trying to add. I'm told that this is something Apple did to prevent file sharing, blah, blah, blah...
    Does anyone know a way around it? I keep buying CDs just not able to load them into my iPod thru iTunes.

    Hello yourantihero,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    There are several ways you can pull the music off your iPod and onto iTunes. The first link below provides step-by-step instructions for the direct method if you have a PC as well as a few third party applications (for both the Mac and PC) if you choose to go that route instead. You can also do a simple Google search for "copy music from iPod to computer" and you should receive a number of sites that can help you out.
    Just make sure that when you have your iPod plugged into your computer, that you don't hit "Erase and Sync" before completing the task of copying your music over.
    Also, if you have any purchased music, you will probably have to re-authorize your computer by heading to the Store drop down menu and choosing "Authorize computer."

    How can I increase the file size limit for outgoing mail. I need to send a file that is 50MB?

    You can't change it, and I suspect few email providers would allow a file that big.  Consider uploading it to a service like Dropbox, then email the link allowing the recipient to download it.

  • MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing wirelessly to XP shared printer

    MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing to XP shared printer
    Bear with me please. I read tons of articles on this but somehow as a newbie to MAC (girlfriends sick daughter), I am missing something. 10.5.2
    Currently, she can print directly if we plug in the HP Deskjet printer directly via USB to the MACBook. No problem.
    When we first got the MACBOOK I tried setting up the MACBOOK wirelessly to recognize the workgroup where the printer was attached via USB to the Windows XP PC. However it printed out garbage since I did not know there was a difference between XP printing and MAC (Gutenberg/gimp printing/drivers).
    Now I know there is a difference.
    But in reading various instructions, I no longer can find how to connect the MAC to the Windows workgroup. Note we do have a printer set up currently as USB-HP Deskjet on the Macbook (not sure I need to delete it yet).
    I went to System Preferences on MACBOOK and clicked on printers, more printers. In the drop down box was CANON, APPLETALK, IP HP printing and Firewire. There was no WINDOWS selection as I saw in other online web instructions.
    So not sure how to proceed to find a way to:
    1. Connect to Windows workgroup (click on what exactly), step by step please!!
    2. Add correct HP Deskjet 5490 printer (perhaps there is one with Gutenberg or perhaps I need Gutenprint-really not sure what I am talking about)
    Thanks so much in advance. Fiancé's kid has had her cancer recur in a different place and someone was nice enough to buy her a MACBOOK as a gift.
    Sincerely
    Peter

    Any chance of posting the Protocol you used to connect to your printer with your laptop?  I'm have the exact same problem printing from my MB.  Same error message "..is busy".

  • How do send music files by messages?

    hello everyone.my question is how do you send music files via text message or mms?

    The iPhone and iTunes are set up so that you cannot share your music, books, movies, etc.  Apple has some really strong contracts with the content providers and one of the points was that people would not be able to give away their content.  So no email, text or other types of sharing.

  • Crypto newb: Need help with encrypting data for offline Swing app

    Hi all,
    I'm VERY new to cryptography. Can somebody point me in the right direction? I've created a Swing application that is intended to be used offline (no network connections are established by the app). I need to export XML files from this application, to be transported via floppy to another instance of the application on a different computer for import. The information is sensitive and must be encrypted!
    I started looking into AES and using asymmetric ciphers (public/private key encryption). But then I realized that if Jane is exporting a file for Bob to view, she won't have access to Bob's public key (no network access). Ugghh!
    I noticed another solution in this forum where the person suggested using password encryption. It was an old post and I think it used DES. Anyway, password encryption doesn't seem too secure.
    So, I thought I'd create a symmetic key (correct term?) once, store it in the program directory, and distribute it with the application installer. That way, everyone would have the same key and would be able to encrypt/decrypt each others files. Right? Err... I'm not sure.
    Like I said, I'm a newb at crypto. If someone could suggest the best/most secure way to accomplish this, I would be eternally grateful.
    PLEASE HELP!!! :-D
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, Grant. I must've posted that last one just
    after your response. I was intending the message to
    be for Anand. Heh - you have no idea how many times I've done the same thing. It's an artifact of the asynchronous nature of message boards.
    Your response is very helpful. Out of
    curiosity, does my last post provide any more insight
    that would change your mind? Or do you still believe
    that using password encryption and letting the user
    choose/provide the password is the best solution?Well, as you noted, giving everyone two sets of keypairs is semantically equivalent to giving everyone a single symmetric key. And, as I've noted, it's completely INsecure - everyone who gets access to an install disk, either legitimately or no, can read every transmission your app makes forever after. Cryptographically speaking, this is Not A Good Thing.
    The advantage of PBE is that it's easy for your users to exchange keys when their machines can't see each other. The real key here is that your app, if you really want it to be secure, MUST allow/require that transmission between Alice and Bob use a different key than that between Alice and Carlos or Bob and Carlos - otherwise, if Eve compromises any user of your software, ALL users are compromised.
    I'd go with PBE, just because other alternatives are painful for your end users. You could use generated KeyPairs, for example, if you provide a means for users to exchange public keys. If you display Bob's public key in encoded, String-able form, then Bob can either email that to Alice or read it off to her over the phone. Into your app Alice loads/types in that public key, and the app now knows how to secure communications with Bob.
    Public keys are large, though, and people screw them up typing them in. And many users have TERRIBLE key discipline - if Bob loses access to his private key, he can't read anything Alice sends. And if his private key is readable on some public shared folder (which happens with a totally-frightening regularity), then we're back to no security at all.
    Use one of the triple-DES PBE Ciphers, and get on with making your app do what you really want it to do, would be my advice. (Free advice, of course, being worth every penny you pay!)
    Once again, thanks a bunch!Glad to help.
    Grant

  • 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.
    On your hard drive, you'll find your itunes library under your user ID / music / itunes
