Recording sound directly from the web?

I have Adobe Soundbooth CS3, and I'm trying to find a way to record a sound directly (on the wire) from a web page. I've been unable to do this, being relegated to the built-in microphone.
One example, is recording the interesting "Audio Preview" on Youtube.
Is there some trick I can do to accomplish this?
Thanks.

I cannot get sound from the web, you tube, etc, however, my speakers are on and my itunes play sound? What gives?

Hi,
Try the following.
First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Desktop.
Flash Player Uninstaller.
When the download has completed, close all browser windows and run the uninstaller. After this has completed, restart the notebook.
Next, download and install Firefox and then using Firefox, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.
Close all browser windows before running the Flash installer.
Launch Firefox and see if Youtube videos etc play Ok - if they do, close Firefox, open IE and click on the same Adobe Flash link above to get a prompt to install the ActiveX component. When done, restart IE.

When I play my Ipod shuffle 3rd gen there's a moment when I start hearing interference until it stops playing, when I turn it off and on again it starts playing from the first song all over again, and once it sounded like the music was slowing down.

My Ipod shuffle 3rd gen starts playing songs with some kind of interference until it stops playing, when I turn it off and on again it starts playing from the first song all over again, and once it sounded like the music was slowing down. First I thought it was the earphones, but I exchanged them for newer ones and so far its the same

You may want to do a Restore on the shuffle in iTunes. The Restore button is on the shuffle's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the shuffle, re-install its software, and set it to default settings. If it's a software or data corruption glitch, the Restore should fix it. After the Restore, reload or resync your songs, and try it again. As a test, you may want to initially select a small number of songs to put back on the shuffle.

How do I access my AE attached lacie drive from the web

I just hooked up a 1TB drive to my new AE and think I have it configured properly in the disk pane of airport utility. I'm very much hoping that I have it configured correctly! I chose to configure "with a disk password", and not " accounts", and just for the heck of it clicked on the "?" [airport utility help] at the bottom of the Disks/File Sharing page. At the bottom of the page in help under "sharing a usb hard disk on your network", under " to set up disk sharing:" #4 "select the " share disks over ethernet WAN port" checkbox if you want to provide remote access to the disk over the wan port", It turns out that I don't have that message on my airport utility pane for Disk/ file sharing. I do have a checkbox that says " share disks over the internet using Bonjour, but I definitely don't have a checkbox that says " ethernet wan port" as a choice.
Why would my pane be missing that choice? I recall setting up the AE choosing to be able to use computers with the pre 802.11n compatability. Should I have chosen the 5ghz which is 802.11n only as I recall.
I hope this all isn't sounding to complicated. I just want to be able to access my hard drive [connected to the AE] remotely from the web and hopefully be able to access a huge music library that i have on that drive. HELP, PLEASE, KIND APPLE PEOPLE!

It is attached to another router.
In order to access a drive from the Internet, you need to know the Public IP address of the router and the router would need to be configured to port map the file service requests from the Internet to the drive. Apple provides Leopard and Snow Leopard users a means to access drives attached to an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), from the Internet, by using a feature known as "Back to My Mac." You may want to explore this option further.
Without Back to My Mac, the router would need to be manually configured to make this work. In a much simpler case where the 802.11 AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) is directly connected to the Internet modem, you would use the AirPort Utility to determine its Public IP address and to configure it for port mapping. The only difficult issue is the type of Public IP address that your ISP provides you. Most consumer-grade Internet service comes with a dynamic IP address. That means this address will change periodically and you will need to keep track of the changes in order to be successful in accessing it from the Internet. One way to do this is to use a DDNS service, like DynDNS.
In your case, there is an added level of complexity since the AEBSn is downstream of another router. You would have to configure both this router and the AEBSn to get this to work.
Should I try to set up with accounts, would that be different in regards to this problem?
The 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) can share out a hard drive with three types of access: 1) Base Station Password, 2) Disk Password, or 3) With Accounts. Which type you choose will not affect the drive from being accessed from the Internet.

HT201335 when i watch movies from the web with airplay on my apple tv stop every 2 minuts

when i watch movies from the web with airplay on my apple tv stop every 2 minuts

I have a similar issue with my Home Sharing. Everything plays just fine on my Apple TV except when I try to play a movie using Home Sharing. If I choose the same show or movie from the Purchased section of iTunes it works just fine but nothing ever loads for me on Home Sharing.
Not the exact same issue, but very similar. Good luck, I'm hoping to learn something here too!

Are plug-ins downloaded from the web safe?

Macworld newsletter just sent out an article about the most useful Safari plug-ins (http://lm.macworld.com/t/1158383/7026212/108592/0/). How do you know if it is safe to install a plug-in that sounds very useful but has been downloaded from the web?

Hi Mike --
The only extension I've heard of having problems is Safari AdBlock, which I did not
on that list. I would trust MacWorld about 90% of the time. You can always delete them
if they don't work out. I would also trust their site for downloading.
Hope this helps.

Running from the web

I'm trying to combine two collage courses... Problem is I don't really KNOW where to start.
I've got this great little java program. I worte it with a total of four files all ending with .java. What I'd like to know is where to look to find out how to "compile" (I'm not sure if that's the right word) them and link them to a web page.
I'm assume I can run a java program from the web, I see it all the time.
Any good resources??
THX
Mark

phoenix has the online stuff but I can't stand it...
I prefer the classroom. All my education came in a classroom. I don't know how I'd feel about a Web class.
In my JAva class, almost six months ago, we played
around with writing calculators and such. Problem is,
we only ever ran the programs from within the IDE.
I'm using NetBeans, everyone else in the class was
playing with JGrasp. You were wise to use NetBeans. I've never heard of JGrasp.
So your calculator was working fine? That's good.
I recently wrote a new little program (more
calculator BS) and it does great from within the IDE.
But that doesn't help me build it into the web page
e for my current class.
We play around with JavaScript a LITTLE. We're doing
things like mouseOver, and form varification. Not a
lot of help... And like you said, very different
mess.Javascript is okay, but it's not at all like Java.
Is there a way I can use all the code I've got,,,
like convert it or, export it, save as, or something
that will give me a file I can upload to our server
and link to the page??Depends on how you did your calculator.
If you wrote it so it displayed in a Swing JFrame, you can take the JPanel that displayed all the code and put it in a JApplet. You can insert that into an HTML page using an <applet> tag. You will package all your .class files in a JAR file and put that on the server. When a client's browser connects to the server, it'll download the JAR file and display the applet.
Can be done. Check out that tutorial link I sent. I bet that'll sort you out.
I'll confess that I don't do anything with applets. I don't think they're very important in my work. UIs that I write to run in a browser are HTML generated by Java Server Pages, or JSPs.

Download file from the web

Hey,
I'm struggling to download files from the web.
The first approach I though of was simply opening the url in Safari, but it would just open the file, not download it.
Then there is an application called "URL Access Scripting", but I can't figure out how it works.
That might sound stupid, since it has only a download and an upload command, but they do not work.
The download function asks for a file specification, what the #$^& is that?
I tried supplying a file, but to no avail.
For obvious reasons I can't make an alias of a not yet existing file, so what do I put in there?
It seems file specification is a deprecated format.
My last resort was running curl in a shell script, which works, but that feels hackish.
Is there any good way to do this?

Hi pepsel,
Let's take an example. Suppose that you want to download “UltiCalc Mac 2.5” (freeware) from [this Web page|http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/games/utilities/ulticalcmac.html]. You can proceed as follows:
--BEGINNING OF SCRIPT
set theURL to "http://wsidecar.apple.com/cgi-bin/nph-reg3rdpty2.pl/product=23023&cat=25&platf orm=osx&method=sa/ulticalc_mac.zip"
set theFile to "/Users/pierre/Desktop/My_download.zip" -- same extension as the file to download
tell application "URL Access Scripting" to download theURL to theFile
--END OF SCRIPT
Of course, you should replace “pierre” with the name of your own home folder.
Hope it can help.

HP 309c wireless printer. How do I get it to print from the web?

I have two wireless laptops. The older one prints perfectly. The new one prints from Word and pdf files. When I attempt to print from the web, the ink mechanism in the printer goes back and forth inside sounds like it is producing a document, however, when the paper comes to the tray, there is nothing but a blank sheet of paper. I have unplugged everything, reinstalled the printer, cleaned the rollers and it still continues to produce a blank sheet of paper. Any suggestions?

Since the printer can produce good prints using certain PCs and software, it is not a printer problem. It is likely a software problem.
What operating system are you using? Are you using Internet Explorer 8 as your browser? Do you have HP WebPrint installed?

Faint Sounds emanating from the bottom left of iMac

Any ideas?I went to the Mac store on Monday because there are some faint sounds emanating from the bottom left corner of the computer when I am moving about on the web - they suggested I bring the computer in for them to check - firstly, the sounds are not a big issue, secondly I am definitely keeping the new Mac and thirdly I have Applecare, so I won't need to be rushing to see them.

Contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that since you have AppleCare's protection plan and if you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine.

I am trying to use an education program that needs Java applets to install and use and it will not use Safari. When I download IE from the web it will not install. How can I get a browser that will work on my MacAir for travel use of this program?

I am trying to use and education program that needs Java applets and it will not run on Safari. IE will not install from the web. How do I get a browser that will work to install so I can use this program when I travel.

Try using FireFox. IE will only run on a Mac if you run Windows on the Mac.
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

I am a new iPhone 4s owner. I have a tone in iTunes that I downloaded from the web as a m4r file. Why won't it sync to my iPhone so I can set it as a ringtone.

I am a new iPhone 4s owner. I have a tone in iTunes that I downloaded from the web as a m4r file. Why won't it sync to my iPhone so I can set it as a ringtone?
Lois

Yes, the tone is available and checked in iTunes under the Tones library.
Yes, it is also listed under the Tones tab for my iPhone, but it is grayed out.
Yes, tones are selected under "sources" in General Preferences, along with everything else.
SyncTones was NOT selected under the Tones tab for my iPhone. I did so and it synced.
Thanks for your help!

Lately pdf files from the Web do not display properly; what is wrong and how can I fix it so I don't have to use IE?

I am a professor and frequently need to open pdfs of academic journal articles from electronic databases. Within the last two or three weeks, when I try to do this using Firefox, only the first page of the pdf displays and the rest are blank. In addition, a bar appears across the top with the message "This pdf file may not display properly." So I have had to switch to Internet Explorer to open the files and do my research. What is going on and how can I fix it so I can open pdf files from the Web in Firefox and have them display properly?

My question is simple - why would you put an application in production that has a lot of bugs? To replace a good and steady Adobe product? My customers will believe that I put a pathetic fallible form online. They are not sophisticated on computers so I just tell them to use IE. Ugh
I must agree with pgwebgirl!

With OSX10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02 when I try to open a PDF downloaded from the web I get 'There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired. Preview will not open either. Older PDFs OK.

I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
