No audio when importing mpeg4 song from itunes
I have tried to import a song from itunes which turned out to be mpeg4 and not aiff. As a result the audio is not playing in FCP.
Is there anything I can do?
Thanks

You may want to actually read the agreement you make with Apple and the iTunes store regarding the use of material acquired there. A song purchased from the iTunes store gives you the right to listen to it on up to 5 devices. It does not give you the right to utilize it in any syncronized video or other public display - whether or not money changes hands.
Have you negotiated the use rights with the artist already?
What VJK tells is technically correct it is also an illegal act. Let's put it this way - would it be OK for someone to take your work, use it for their purposes and maybe they credit or pay you later?

How does the copyright thing work when importing a song from iTunes to iMovie.
The song was purchased legally through iTunes but does that mean I can include it in a movie for personal use?

Absolutely not.
Well... define what you mean by "personal use".

I have the latest version IPAD. In Garage Band I am trying to import karaoke songs purchased on itunes so that I can sing with them via garage band. In Garage Band, when I try in import a song from Itunes, nothing comes up? How do I do this...?
Make sure you understand the difference between an Audio File and a GarageBand Project File (also known as GarageBand Song File)
The + sing in the My Songs page is for opening a GarageBand Project File, either a new one or one that is copied vie the iTunes File Sharing mechanism. If I understand you right, then you want to import an Audio File from your iTunes library in a GarageBand Project and not open an existing GarageBand Project.
To import an Audio File from your iTunes Library to an existing GarageBand Project.
Make sure you sync your iTunes Library (all songs or a selection) to your iPad. This is the standard procedure so you can listen to your iTunes Library on your iPad (this step has nothing to do with GarageBand yet)
Once you are in your GarageBand Project, tap the Loop Browser icon (the ribbon) to open the Loop Browser
The misleading part here is that this window can display three tabs, not only the Apple Loops. It also displays any synced audio file via the iTunes Fle Sharing (the tab is labeled "Audio Files) and also any songs that you have synced to yoyr iPad that I just described. This tab is now called "Music".
Look at the screenshot of my previous post. The Music tab provides the same browsing capabilities (Playlists, Artist, etc) as your iTunes.
Navigate to the Kareoke Song (audio file) and drag it onto a GarageBand audio track
I explain all those details and concepts in my GarageBand book
Hope that helps

I have MBP 13 late 2011:
Will it be able to support a 3tb hardisk?
Secondly, if i delete a song from itunes,is that song removed from the mac and is the space freed up?If not then what should I do to free up space when i delete songs from itunes?Your MBP will support a 3T HDD provided it is formatted correctly and has sufficient power. Most large HDDs require an outboard power source.
When you delete songs from iTunes you will get a message if you want to send it to trash. If you send it to trash, space will be freed up only when you empty trash. An individual song does not consume much space so if your HDD is becoming full, more drastic action s should be considered, such as moving an entire file to an external HDD.

I can't import a song from iTunes to an iPhoto slideshow.
I'm trying to import a song as background music in a slideshow, and the song plays just fine in iTunes, but when I try to add it to my slideshow, I get the message "The (name of song) could not be used because the original file could not be located." How can it play in iTunes, but not in iPhoto? I tried "Get Info" to see where the original file was kept and then dragged it into the iTunes music folder, but that didn't work. I've never had this happen with any other song. Does anyone have a solution for this?
I don't build slide shows, so not sure how hard it is to do in iDVD, but you can burn a song to CD and then rip it back into iTunes. Then you can edit the song in Garage Band. You might want to do this with a number of songs that you might use in one sitting, as it's pretty tedious.
One other thought: check if Amazon has the mp3 of the same song. The content there is not protected (I think the music producers cut that deal just to stick it to Apple) and is $0.99 per song like on iTunes. Might be worth another buck to avoid all this hassle. iTunes is easier to search and buy from (IMO) and has a better selection, but you might get lucky at Amazon. I've ended up buying the same song again at Amazon just for this reason.

Can't import edited song from iTunes to iPhoto
Hi,
I've created a slideshow in iPhoto and a playlist in iTunes to go with the slideshow. I shortened one of the songs in the playlist from 4.5 minutes to 1.5 minutes (file-get info-options). Within iTunes the song is shortened but when I import the playlist to iPhoto the song reverts back to its original length. I realise there is a workaround using iDVD (when I import the song into iDVD it stays at 1.5 minutes unlike iPhoto) but it means I have to redo the whole slideshow again which I'd prefer to avoid.
Has anyone any suggestions how to shorten a song for a slideshow within iPhoto?I don't build slide shows, so not sure how hard it is to do in iDVD, but you can burn a song to CD and then rip it back into iTunes. Then you can edit the song in Garage Band. You might want to do this with a number of songs that you might use in one sitting, as it's pretty tedious.

Need help on volume issue when adding a song from itunes
I am creating a podcast. I am hoping to create a guided meditation CD with speaking and background music. I used the male voice to record the speaking vocals and adjusted some small areas slightly for volume if I was too close to the microphone, etc. It is a twelve minute recording. I then added a music selection (for background) from my itunes by clicking on media browser, audio, and dragging the song into the track area. It automatically put it in Jingles. When I listened to the new recording, speaking vocals and music together, the background music had distinct variations in its sound, going louder and softer on its own, sporadically, jumping in random places. It doesn't do that if I listen to the music selection directly from itunes. So the volume increasing and decreasing only happens when it is brought into garageband. When I hit play on the final piece, the vocals sound exactly as they should but the music jumps around in volume randomly.
I have tried putting the music selection in as a new basic track instead of Jingles.
I have also tried starting with a new podcast, putting the music in first and then adding the completed vocals (I tried it in both male voice and female voice).
I have tried putting the music selection into a project by itself with no vocals and it sounds just fine... the volume problem happens when I add the speaking vocals to the project.
I have also tried dragging the music selection from a file on my computer instead of from itunes. None of these things have helped.
Somehow the vocals and the music together in garageband make the music sound wonky. Please help. Any advice would be helpful.
Thank you

Media Sync crashes when importing art work from iTune
I downloaded Media Sync from blackberry.com and tried to import musics from iTune. I understand that the newest Media Sync should allow this.

Solved!
Go to Solution.Hi Music4lifebeats:
One of the tracks in your iTunes library seems to reporting an invalid Track Length. This is usually the result of a corrupt track. We can help identify what track is causing the problem...check you private messages.
You may be able to temporarily fix this problem by closing MediaSync and deleting the file %appdata%/ Research In Motion\BlackBerry Media Sync/ MediaSyncLibrary.tle.
However, if the corrupt file is still in your library, the problem will show up again.

Why can't I import my songs from iTunes onto my nano?
I installed the software after I got my new nano and I transferred my already downloaded mp3s into the iTunes library. I'm trying to import them and it won't let me. What do I do now? Please help!
Angie,
Sorry for not being more specific last time--here's a little clearer explanation:
- Connect your nano to your computer and wait for iTunes to start up
- Your nano will show up as an icon in iTunes
- Go to the Edit Menu & select 'Preferences'
- Click on the iPod tab
- Click the button for 'Automatically update selected playlists only'
- Select only one playlist (for now) so that everything will fit on your nano
- Allow iTunes to update your nano
- When update is complete, click on the nano icon--you should see the appropriate playist (greyed out because it's updated automatically)
- Click on the playlist and you should see the same songs as are in the playlist on your computer (again, greyed out)
If all of the above works, you can now start creating smart playlists specifically for your nano. Here's one that I use that I named 'nano Jazz':
- Match the following rule: Genre contains Jazz
- Limit to 40 songs selected by random
- Match only checked songs
- Live updating
The 'nano Jazz' playlist is one of my selected playlists to update automatically. Now, if I wanted to have the songs change, all I have to do is delete one in the playlist (not in the Library) and another pops in. I could get even fancier and add a rule that would select songs that haven't been played for a while, or that have a low or high playcount, etc., etc.
Well, hope this didn't get too long. You can see how cool this whole setup is--not just an MP3 player, but an entire smart audio experience. (Wow, sounds like a commercial... .
Have fun!

No audio when importing mp4 files into iTunes.
Since recently, whenever I import an MP4 of M4V file into iTunes, it either deletes the audio, or the video becomes shocky.
When I play the same files in VLC they do work. That is great and all, but since I use Apple TV I need them to work in iTunes.
I've tried to delete and re-import the files. I've also tried to download different versions of the same files, which also didn't work.
To me it seems like the problem lies within iTunes.. but I'm not really a computer wiz.
Anyone else have this problem and know how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.Does your friend have EXACTLY the same computer software and hardware?

Error when transfering specific songs from iTunes to iPod
Hi!
I am having this problem: When I am transferring new songs (manually)from my iTunes library to my iPod, I got a error message - my iTunes is in Spanish - which translated into English reads:
"Error when trying to copy in disk NAME OF IPOD. Unable to read nor write in the disk"
It happens with very specific songs, not all new songs but some of them. First I thought these songs were corrupted, however iTunes and WMA can plays them with no problem at all.
I have a 4G, 20Gb iPod, 1.79Gb free space, already installed latest iPod Updater 2005-10-12. Have no issues related to play songs on iPod.
Is there any other way to check if songs are not corrupted ?
Is this a problem related to my iPod ? Pls advise.
Thank you!I'm still having the same problem. I tried everything, and unless there's a number to call Apple, I'm going to repurchase my music. I only buy it to play it on my iPod.

Freezing when passing the songs from iTunes to iPod
After I bought the 60gb video iPod I had a problem to send the music from my iTunes. If I use the automatic method, the transfer freezes after 200 or 300 songs were transfered. If I use the manual method and copy groups of 200 songs each it will go until the end of my 5.000 songs.
I would prefer to keep the automatic updating.
Any idea of how to solve this problem?
Thank you.I have resigned myself to try to set iTunes to manual sync - at least until the initial collection has been transferred. It will take a while, and I am sure that once done the world will be right again, the clouds will part and the angels will weep. Until then however, I'm wondering if it was worth the upgrade since my old iPod (3g 20gb) would sync just fine on FW.
The question still remains (in my feeeble mind) why Apple would "degrade" the iPod capability to use only USB - a technology which has never (again in my mind) worked properly and by that I mean up to spec.
Aren't you suppose to be able to connect over 100 devices to a single USB chain? Heck, I can't get more than a couple devices connected (using self powered USB hubs of course) before things start to fail. -
