Problem with mixed CDs

Most of my CDs have the tracks mixed so there is no break in between songs. I would like to be able to convert these CDs into a single track to keep the flow of the music. Is this possible with iTunes, and if not can someone direct to a program it is possible with?
HP Pavilion 4.2 Ghz P4   Windows XP  

Nevermind I figured it out:
Advanced>Join tracks
Easy as that, shoulda actually looked before asking.

  • Problems with importing CDs - is it an iTunes problem or a computer problem

    Hi,
    I just purchased a new iMac in August, and have had problems importing audio CDs into my iTunes library. Sometimes the computer completely skips over certain songs when importing or the songs are imported but have parts skipped over, almost like the cd is skipping while it is importing. This is happening quite frequently, and it is happening with cds that I know aren't scratched, etc, so there is no reason that I can think of that these wouldn't be importing just fine. I'm wondering if this is an iTunes issue or a computer issue. I don't want to bring my computer in to get serviced if this is just merely an iTunes problem.
    Thanks so much for your help!

    No, just the touch events.
    I think it's because I have an Apple multitouch pad but it functions as a mouse so it's actually sending two notices. It doesn't do it on a touch screen device nor does it do it when everything is switched to mouse events, so I think it's just unique to Device Central and this particular type of mouse.

  • Word 2007 mail merge : problem with mixed portrait and landscape orientations

    Hi there,
    I have a 3 pages document Word 2007 file
    This is a mail merge I want to export in PDF using Adobe Acrobat Printer,
    then send "big" PDF to printing.
    page 1 is PORTRAIT
    page 2 is PORTRAIT
    page 3 is LANDSCAPE
    In PDF pages 1 and 2 are perfectly fine, inside an A4 format (width=210 height=297mm or something)
    but for page 3, system changed to a "double" sized page (A3 width=297 height=420) and printed my stuff at the 1st top middle of big page.
    So I have a big "double" sheet, oriented PORTRAIT, with my stuff in 1st half, and a blank in 2nd half.
    It seems that system did not rotate the page... and just put the stuff into a bigger sheet to "solve" at best.
    I would like the same size of paper (A4) but in landscape : width=297 height=210
    I have already seen many PDF with mixed portrait and landscape orientations, so what's the thing ?
    With my advanced thanks,
    And greetings from Paris, France !

    Some questions:
    Which version of office were you using before? 2003?
    Are the data files on a network, or on your local machine? If they are on a network, can you make a copy of one of them on your local machine and try again?
    Can you open the files directly in Excel? What extension do they have (.xls, or something else?) I am wondering whether access to other file types has been left blocked on your machine but is allowed on your colleague's machine.
    Are you just opening the mail merge main document and seeing this message? If so, do you see the same thing if you start with a new document and try to connect to one of these data sources?
    Can you confirm that the message is about Access even though you are trying to connect to an Excel file?
    (Also, office 2007 has some new stuff - that let's you specify that certain folders are "trusted" . I don't think that ever affected MailMerge but it may be as well to make sure that your documents and data sources are in trusted locations).
    Also worth trying to start Word in "Safe mode" - see, e.g. http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/word-help/work-with-office-safe-modes-HP010140792.aspx

  • 10.6.8 Causes New Problem with Mixed Graphics Hardware Environment - Suggestions?

    Hi. After installing the latest Mac OS update (10.6.8), I can no longer boot my 5,1 Mac Pro into its Mac OS partition.  An undefined display (and graphics card) now seems to be used as default, rather than the supported display/hardware, so I cannot interact with the user interface.  I simply have an inoperable blue screen on the correct display. I have 2 graphics cards in my Mac Pro: a supported GT120 (solely for the purpose of booting/using Mac OS), and an unsupported HD6970 (used extensively for Windows 7 3D gaming, in Slot 1).  Until this latest OS release, I could successfully boot and use my computer in both Mac OS and Windows environments.  I encountered other problems because of this mixed graphics environment, like an inability to put the system to sleep without having the Mac Pro PCI fan unnecessarily ramp up to full speed after waking - but it would always work correctly when first booted.  (I have contacted Apple Support about this sleep issue, but they do not support my configuration.) Does any boot command exist to force the use of the supported graphics card?  Or, do kext files exist to enable the Mac OS to at least recognize (not use) the 6970 card? With the 6970 removed, I have no problems booting the Mac OS, but I do NOT want to remove my hardware card every time I want to shift to the Mac OS.  Do anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks for the suggestions.
    First, I cannot swap graphic cards in PCI slots, because the 6970 only operates correctly in slot 1 (the high-speed graphics slot).  I may have to revert to the prior OS release, but what about next month, with Lion?
    I am familiar with Netkas.org (I will probably try it or Groths.org next, thanks).  One of my previous graphics cards was a flashed 4970.  I do not have access to the prelease Lion kext files that he suggests using.  Full flash support does not appear to yet exist for the 6970, much less the HD 6990 or GTX 590 that it appears I may need next.
    Ideally, the Mac Pro firmware should ignore any attempted bus communication with an unrecognized PCI card.  Currently, it appears that the unsupported 6970 can cause boot or run-time problems (I also have occasional freezes during Mac OS hardware interaction like writing a file to disk).  Note that I have never had any problems arising from my unsupported Windows 5.1 PCI sound card, however.

  • Problem with burning CDs

    Ever since I've had my iMac, I've never been able to successfully burn a CD, whether it's and Audio CD, MP3, or any other CD. Whenever I try to burn, I get an error message that says:
    "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media."
    And then the computer ejects the CD. I've tried many different brands of CDs and none of them work.
    If anyone has a solution, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Sounds like a hardware problem to me.
    I'd call Apple immediately and get it fixed.
    I hope your warranty is still good.
    With repairs being expensive once the warranty has passed, it is important to identify (and fix) these issues when they first occur.
    I would have personally tried to get it to work again after the first error, and then called for assistance if it didn't work then. I would not have let this problem slide.
    But, I do hope that your machine is still under warranty.
    If so, give them a call now, and get it fixed.
    If it's out of warranty, there are a few drives around $100 (+/-) that are suitable replacements at:
    http://www.macsales.com
    They are very helpful people, so I'd give them a call and have them help you to pick out the right drive for your particular version of iMac G5.
    But, if it's under warranty, call Apple first.

  • Problem with sync-cds after installing Patch 115614-26

    Hi,
    We are in the process of patching the machines in the cluster from 5.2 p2 to p4 on Solaris 9.
    After installing 115614-26 (System Directory Server 5.2 patch 4) the process is to start up slapd and run sync-cds to synchronise the updates. We're seeing authentication failures at this point and can't work out what the problem is.
    # /usr/sbin/mpsadmserver sync-cds
    Admin Id: cn=directory manager
    Admin Password:
    Error: Ldap authentication failed (147:Unknown error.).
    Do you want to try again ? [y/n]: #
    The sync-cds process breaks back to the bash prompt after entering the password rather than asking for another go. If a false cn is given the same error number is given yet we're allowed to have another try.
    # /usr/sbin/mpsadmserver sync-cds
    Admin Id: cn=false
    Admin Password:
    Error: Ldap authentication failed (147:Unknown error.).
    Do you want to try again ? [y/n]: y
    The authentication details are correct as we're able to authenticate with the console on the other machines in the cluster using the same details.
    No errors are shown in the slapd logs. Does anyone have any ideas?
    Many thanks,
    Robin.

    use :
    export NSS_STRICT_NOFORK=DISABLED
    before starting the directory and admin server.

  • Problems with burned CDs.....

    Can someone help me figure out why my Burned CDs won't work on my mac if they were burned with Nero 6 for Windows (I burned several CDs on my PC and when they are inserted in my iBook, three minutes later, they get ejected!) I am wondering how I can fix this, because I also seem to have a problem being able to burn CDs from the finder as well (blank CDs don't show up in the finder, and disk utility says that I am unable to burn CDs, but I have been able to burn them 2 months ago!) please help me out if you know what is going on! I am really frustrated about this!

    Hello all you super smart people! Ok, I downloaded an ISO file. Now I want to run the program that is inside that cute little file. So, I have done every thing I can think of to get that puppy to go. I have burned as image in toast...I have tried to convert to master cd in disk utilities...wasted about a dozen cd's. But every time I think I have it burned all nice and pretty, I put the disk in and low and behold the disk is not readable by my mac...can't even get the PC to read it. However, I did burn one disk that I could not run on mac but could open all the zillions of files on the PC...but I want the program to run:-( Please all you nice little cumputer geeks out there, help me. I did read somewhere that I could go into the terminal and paste in some code and that would change the ISO image into a DMG image. But the last time I messed with my terminal I just about killed my computer...actually did kill it, but fixed it:-) please help with step by step. Thanks so very very much!!

  • How to fix the problem with importing CDs with the new version of itunes

    Hello,
    I am trying to fix my itunes so that i can import CDs into my library. I understand there is a bug and i need to change to the 7.9.3 but how do i do that?? I am not computer savvy when it comes to the inner workings and changing things like i need to with this problem so help is greatly appreciated!!!

    Short of rolling back your iTunes to 10.0.1.22 and your Apple Application Support to 1.3.2 (CoreAudioToolbox.dll is kept in the Apple Application Support program files), there's a few possible workarounds.
    (1) Change your importing prefs to use a different encoding (won't help with the device syncing variation though), and/or disable the convert to 128 kbps AAC when syncing option.
    (2) Replace your CoreAudioToolbox.dll version 7.9.4.0 with a 7.9.3.0 as per:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12576816#12576816
    (3) Or, replace your CoreAudioToolbox.dll version 7.9.4.0 with a shadow copy of a 7.9.3.0 as per:

  • SoundBlaster Live! problem with mixer..

    Ok this is what happens. WHen I click on the Creative Surround Mixer, a window pops up and says "there is no mixer detected in the system. mixer will now exit." Now if I restart the computer, it works again, but only for like -2 hours. Before, I would reinstall the whole hing with the DrvUniPack and it would fix the problem for 5-6 months. Now it doesnt matter, same thing happens. Any suggestions?
    I have a Windows XP Home.
    AMD Athlon .8ghz.
    ATI Radeon 9000
    Creative SoundBlaster Li've!
    ty in advance. It really is getting annoying having to restart every time I want to change settings or somehting.

    Uninstall everything and reinstall using this CD instead.

  • K7N2D-L Sound problem with Audio CDs

    Hi there , i have the following problem. Whenever i want to play an audio CD , the firts track will play fine , with no audio problems BUT if i skip to the next track .. , the sound will suddendly play at slow speed , like slow motion sound . The thing is , after this happens , every windows or applications sounds will play as well in slow speed. The only way to solve it is to reboot my pc . This ONLY happens when i use an AUDIO CD , and only after the first track . Does anyone experienced anything like this ? . thx a lot.

    Resetting the PRAM did not work for me. Last week, the optical drive was waiting a few seconds and then ejecting all media (CDs, DVDs, Installation disks...)
    The guy at the local Apple store ran diagnostics and reset the DVD region. Although I have never had Mac OS ask what region I wanted to use, it is supposed to ask the first time you insert a DVD. If you switch regions (such inserting DVDs formatted for North America-1 and then Europe-2,) you will be asked for the Region each time you insert a different region. For once the region has been changed five times, it is locked in at the last region you selected and the user cannot change it again. There is some Pirateware that will allow you to change it but let the buyer beware.
    At any rate, whatever the "Genius" did at the store made my optical drive accept anything but an audio CD.
    Anyone have any ideas?

  • HT1473 Im having a problem with adding cds to my library when some of the discs in a set have Gracenote information and other discs don't. iTunes in this situation puts the css that are part of a set into different albums, and I don't know how to combine

    I'm having trouble adding "spoken word" CDs that are in a set to my library. When some of the discs have "gracenotes" info the album gets broken up as if each cd was a separate album. I haven't been able to figure out how to have all the cds in the set appear as one album. I have entered each one in the "get info" page as "1 of 7" and "2 of 7" etc, but the ones with gracenote info get put into a separate album. It's frustrating so far! Also, when I want copy an album to the burn folder so i can share it with a friend, it moves the songs as songs, not as albums. Any way around this? Thanks very much!

    See Grouping tracks into albums.
    PS, you don't have the right to burn copies of the songs you've bought/ripped to give away to your fiends...

  • Solving iDVD problems with mixed aspect ratio input.

    I have been trying to create a DVD with a compilation of slideshows. The slideshows are of mixed vintage and were created with various software. The older shows are 640 x 480 and 720 x 480 and the latest were created for my Apple TV with 1240 x 720.
    During the creation of the DVD, the test runs looked fine, but when the DVD was played the 4:3 AR shows were stretched to full screen. I tried making the DVD in 4:3 ratio and in widescreen. The TV is widescreen.
    I searched the forums and even e-mailed David Pogue (no reply) after reading his iDVD book. My solutions came from this forum and I would like to thank the contributors. I cannot name them because I cannot reproduce the same query and the clues I found, were not always a direct response to the topic.
    The results I hoped for, were to have the 4: 3 ratio slideshows play in a widescreen window with black bars on the side. The two solutions I found from the forum were as follows:
    1. Using iDVD, Add the 4:3 aspect ratio slideshow into iDVD as a slideshow and not as a movie. This uses the slideshow formatting to add the black bars. It appears it is OK to add video instead of slides. The 16:9 slideshows were added as normal movies and the DVD worked as expected.
    2. The second solutions (from this forum again) was to create a single slideshow containing all the mixed format shows, use Garageband to add show markers, and output to iDVD. I used Fotomagico, which allows movies to be included with photos. The results were fine and I had two DVDs that played as I expected.
    I want to thank those people who cantribute their time and expertise in these forums. I was one of many who benefitted from their posts.

  • Java 1.5 problem with Mixer.getMaxLines

    This worked in Java 1.4 (returning 32),
    in Java 1.5 it returns -1
    wha' happened?
    DataLine.Info lineInfo = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class, playbackFormat);
    Mixer mixer = AudioSystem.getMixer(null);
    return mixer.getMaxLines(lineInfo);
    Note: playbackFormat has the toString() value of: format = PCM_SIGNED 44100.0 Hz, 16 bit, mono, 2 bytes/frame, little-endian
    Please help, I used to have simultaneous sounds playing in my game now nothing and everything else seems fine in 1.5. I don't want to go back to 1.4...

    I've got a solution found over on javagaming.org. It turns out that Java 1.4 was using a software mixer by default. So I changed my code to force it the mixer to be softwared.
    This code creates a software mixer:
    static Mixer mixer = null;
    Mixer.Info[] mixers = AudioSystem.getMixerInfo();
    for (int i = 0; i < mixers.length; i++) {
    if ("Java Sound Audio Engine".equals(mixers.getName())) {
    mixer = AudioSystem.getMixer(mixers);
    This code now returns 32, which is what it did in Java 1.4 (instead of -1)
    DataLine.Info lineInfo = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class, playbackFormat);
    return mixer.getMaxLines(lineInfo);
    This code now used to get a line
    line = (SourceDataLine) mixer.getLine(lineInfo);
    instead of
    line = (SourceDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(lineInfo);
