"Borrow" iTunes on a Windows machine, which is apparently what you have on your desktop PC. As you noticed, it automatically converts WMA files to the specified import format as they are added to the iTunes library. Then you can move the converted files (AAC, mp3, or whatever) to your Mac with a flash (USB) drive.

  • I am having problems adding files to my external hard drive. Can anyone help me?

    I can't add files to my external hard drive from my computer. I keep getting a message saying that the hard drive can't be modified. I've added files to it before, I'm not sure why it's not working now. I looked at the hard drive information and it says that it is set to read only. Does anyone know how to change that or what I should do? Thanks.

    Odd, it seems.  In the Finder "Get Info" display, you are seeing something like this?
    Click the "Details" triangle and then the little padlock, and you should be able to change the permissions.  Click the lock when you are done and close the Info window.

  • Problems adding files to itunes library.

    I am having issues when I try to add my mp3 directory to my iTunes library.
    It only adds some of my files. All my music is in .mp3 format. When I add my c:\media\music folder to winamp, it shows like 5100 files, but when i add the same directory to itunes it only displays about 4500 files.
    Anyone know why this might be happening?

    Same problem here. I have my library for several months, played it whole for several times, but sometimes iTunes just refuses to play some songs (no errors, songs just dont play). I right click on them, see the info, it's all there, all the technical info, the path and etc. I try to delete them from the library, but can't add them there again. I throw the songs from my directory to the library or a playlist window and nothing happens, no errors, no songs.
    And no, songs are not protected. Moving the mp3 files to different directories or even hard drives doesn't help.
    That happened for several times now, for different albums, just out of nowhere.

  • Problem adding files to iTunes library

    Sometimes when I click on Add files to library and select the files from a folder, iTunes doesn't do anything. It reverts back to the iTunes folder on my Windows PC. Sometimes, it works, sometimes it doesn't. The only way that I am sure it will work is to add ONE file at a time.
    Does anyone else have the same problem?

    I had a fairly extensive library built up on my PC using itunes for PC. It was very easy to import .wma files by just dragging them into the itunes window. itunes would automatically convert them to a .mp3 format.
    Correct. That is a feature of iTunes for Windows, and it makes use of the underlying capabilities of Windows Media Player. It does not work on a Mac.
    I downloaded a file converter (Switch) and tried manually converting them, with mixed results. One album converted fine, but none of the artist/song information shows up when importing into itunes.
    I have noticed that same flaw in using Switch. The conversion from WMA to MP3 yields tags that are truncated or missing. Most Mac users prefer EasyWMA for that conversion.

  • Itunes File Sharing: Adding files doesn't work

    Hi,
    i have a problem adding files via Itunes File Sharing in Apps. Here's my setup:
    Windows 7 64bit, german
    Itunes 11.1.5.5, x64, german
    Iphone 5s, 32GB, directly attached via USB
    several apps with file sharing support (OpenVPN, VLC, Good Reader...)
    Now, when i choose one of the apps and click "Add...", i get a file selection dialogue, select a file and click 'ok'... that's it.
    Nothing happens. The file is not added to the window.
    It's not added to the phone after a sync, so it doesn't seem to be a display  problem. But i don't get an error message at
    any point, so i'm quite flattered where to start looking for the problem.
    Steps so far:
    Reinstallation Itunes - no effect
    Reinstallation Drivers - no effect
    Starting with a new media library - no effect
    The only thing suspicious are some bonjour errors in the windows logs. But even with disabled bonjour service the problem persists.
    I've searched for this in the forums but didn't find a proper thread/answer for this.
    Anyone coming up with an idea? At least where to look for the problem? Is there a log file/command line parameter/deep inside special genius trigger to pull? I'm getting out of options here. :/
    Thanks a lot!
    Regards from germany,

    Problem solved. Complete deinstallation of ITunes, computer restart, telephone restart and finally reinstallation of the app did the trick.
    But still, how would you debug a problem like this, when no error message comes up at any point?

    1) Am I missing something obvious or are these simply bugs?
    2) Is there a particular reason why there is no reference to JDeveloper 10.1.2 on the http://jdeveloper.us.oracle.com website?
    3) Why were the 'Add to Applications...' and 'Add to Project...' buttons removed from the 'Applications - Navigator'?
    I found them very helpful and used them to add items to existing Applications and Projects.
    I have duplicated these problems on two different Windows XP systems. Neither JDeveloper 10.1.2 or 9.0.5 builds have exhibited these problems.

    Hi Shay,
    This dynamic project source feature is going to kill us! We have more than 15,000 files in our projects. Currently, part of them are managed by JDeveloper. Developers have option to load only the files they are working on. If all files in the project source will be loaded automatically, that will definitely be a nightmare to us. The JDeveloper will be frozen from time to time when it start to looking for new files...
    Think about why people pick Oracle instead of SQL Server - Oracle is good in handling large data. We, JDeveloper users, sincerely hope JDeveloper team can design/test the JDeveloper on large scaled project before formally release it.
    Thanks for your hard work though.

  • Problems adding Text track to .mov file

    I am having a problem adding a text track to a quicktime file. I want to overlay text onto a PAL DV file. The original file size is 720 x 576 but when I add the text (as per the instructions in the QT Player Help) instead of having the text overlaid, it appears next to the Video image and gives me an image size of 1325 x 577. If I now export this as a "PAL DV" file, QT Player shows the whole 1325x577 frame whilst FCP accepts the file but shows only the video part of the frame.
    I'm running QT 7.4.5 on a MacBook Pro with OS10.5.2. I have tried re-installing QT without success - this maybe because the Preferences seem to stick when upgrading/re-installing (?)
    Any thoughts, help or, better still, a definitive answer to my problem would be most welcome.

    Use the Movie Properties window to size your added text track to match the 720 width.
    For viewing a DVD on a TV size it even smaller (700) and set an offset value of 10 pixels so your text doesn't get cut off during playback.

  • Cannot place order ERROR: "There was a problem adding your product to cart"

    Hey guys,
    Well, once again Best Buy's online system is preventing me from making an order. It seems like nearly every time I log in I experience some new problem. This time, I'm unable to add anything to my cart. It doesn't matter what item I try to add to my cart or what browser I use or if I clear cookies...it happens every time, on every browser, with every product in the store. The error shows a red & white triangle with a message "There was a problem adding your product to cart".
    Just to clarify ahead of time: 1) I have already tried signing in using 4 different browsers (explorer, firefox, chrome, opera) & they all give the same error; 2) Prior to posting here I researched this problem & found out it is somewhat common & has been occurring since at least 2012 on BestBuy.com; 3) Every time someone posts in here about this problem, customer service offers the same "fix" every time - to sign out, clear their browser cache of cookies, shut down the browser, restart the browser, sign back in, etc.... The only problem is, this "solution" has not worked ONE time our of the many times this problem has cropped up in here over the past 3+ years. Why this "solution" keeps getting told to people even though it never works is beyond me. But, there you have it.
    Just to clarify: I have already tried this solution, And just like with everyone else before me, it didn't work for me either. So, what's the next step? There must be something else that can be done other than waiting a couple more days for it to magically fix itself (it seems that is the only thing that ever "works"...is to let several days go by and the problem ends up getting fixed in some back-end server-side patch up). 
    What I'm hoping for from you is a solution that can fix this immediately. This problem has already prevented me from making a couple purchases for items that were temporarily on sale over the past couple days. So, those are lost sales for Best Buy. What I'm hoping to do now is pre-order the Elder Scrolls Online (PS4) in order to take advantage of the $10 pre-order reward. The game releases on Tuesday the 9th. So, in order to get this done in time I need to place the order sometime today (on the 8th).
    With all these repeated technical problems making purchasing a chore & wasting my time every single time I want to buy a product it's almost as if Best Buy is telling customers "We don't care if our online system works reliably...go spend your money at Amazon instead". lol
    Thank you in advance for your timely help on this matter.
    -Marc (removed per forum guidelines)

    Hello mjswooosh,
    I'm very disheartened to hear that you've had ongoing problems when attempting to order from BestBuy.com. Our goal is ever to provide a fun and efficient shopping environment! Certainly creating aggravation serves neither you nor us and I apologize sincerely for this having been your experience.
    We recommend the troubleshooting steps you mentioned (i.e., clearing the browser cache, deleting temporary internet files and cookies) because this is the most common cause of this type of problem. I too have encountered this issue from time to time and these steps have almost always resolved the problem. I say almost always because there's one further step you can try: ensure that you have signed out of BestBuy.com, then perform the browser maintenance steps we've recommended. Afterward, before signing in to BestBuy.com, add your desired items to your cart and sign in as part of the checkout process. When the standard steps have not netted a resolution for me, this has solved the problem each time.
    I hope this helps. I'm very grateful that you took the time to write to us with your concerns and for sharing your very valuable feedback about your online experience.
    Sincerely,
    John|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

  • Problem in File Download

    JSPs will invariably have newlines and whitespace in them, even if you don't explicitly put them. Instead of wasting time trying to fix it, just move your code to a servlet and map it to the same path. That's the fastest and most sensible solution. It also follows the convention that JSPs are to be used for display only and servlets for processing.

  • Problem adding Video to Captivate Slide

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem adding an FLV video file to Captivate. Basically, after I've published to a SWF file, the video doesn't appear on the slide at all. It's just blank.
    After researching a bit, I found that the FLV file MUST include *metadata*.
    However, I added medatada with VLC Media Player, and it still shows the same behavior. Must it include a certain *amount* of metadata? Is there a *type* of metadata without which the video will not show?
    Adobe's Help thread talks about something called the "Flash Video Kit" - is that a stand alone product or an extension of another product? Is it free? Are there any other free alternatives?
    I'm just very confused.
    Thank you!

    I ended up answering my own question. But just in case this helps anyone else, I'm going to post my solution.
    Essentially, I just re-created the video in MP4 format. Then I used MetaZ (for Mac) to write Meta Data to the video. Lastly, I imported the video as an object and when I published the video, Captivate transmuted it to the necessary FLV format.
    Now the video displays properly.

  • Problems adding an image title?

    Hi,
    When I place an image in Muse I'm having problems adding an image title. When I Control click the image in Design view the choices I get at the bottom of the pop up menu are
    Edit original
    Edit Image Properties
    When I looked it up in help it tells me I should also see another item "Add Title" but I don't get that as a choice. When I click on "Edit Image Properties" I get a choice of Tooltips or Alt Text but no place for a title.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    This is the page
    http://www.adobekb.com/strategies_for_seo.html#addingmetadata
    To be clear when I right click on an image I only get the choice of "Edit Original" & "Edit Image Properties". When I click on "Edit Image Properties" I only get a choice of Tooltips or Alt Text, nothing for title
    Thanks,
    Bill
    Adding titles and alternative text to images
    After you place images on a page, you can access the Image Properties dialog box to set both a title and alternative text (also sometimes called alt text) that is assigned to the image.
    Here's a brief description of each property:
    Title: In many browsers, the title is displayed in addition to the image, typically as a tooltip that appears when a cursor hovers over it.
    Alternate text: If the image file cannot be shown, this text is displayed in place of the image. Alternate text is also used to describe images to visually impaired visitors using assistive technologies to access page content.
    It is ideal to set titles and alternative text for every site asset, to ensure that visitors have the best experience when navigating your site. Tooltips are helpful for including additional information about graphics and alternative text makes pages more accessible for screen readers that verbally present graphic content.
    To add titles and alternative text, follow these steps:
    1. Select a placed image.
    2. Right-click on the image and select Add Title or Add Alternative Text from the context menu that appears (see Figure 3).

  • Having problems adding packages

    I downloaded the Solaris (Sparc) companion CD's Dependency Package. It contains 14 or so files that I think should be patches. I run "pkgadd -d . " from my directory where they are and it says their are no packages to add.

    sorry for the bad english.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Your library is damaged and my not be able to be totally recovered, i.e. recover albums, slideshows, etc. along with the photos.
    If the original files for your photos are inside the library package (even if iPhoto can't display them) the following should create a new library with all of your photos. 
    Start over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1.  Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    2. Open the library package like this.
    Click to view full size
    3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    4. Drag the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    Click to view full size
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.  Check it out carefully to see if all of your photos are represented in it.
    Your current library will still be available for further fix attempts.
