Qustion about format and s

i have all downloaded songs on my computer and there all .mp3 but they open with real one player. are all these songs ok to put on my zen touch? will tehy work corectly?
And when i wanna upload a CD to my zen touch in MP3 format how would i do this? i dont have my zen tocuh yet but i will in a few days!!!
P.S. When people say i should fully discharge and charge my battery the first few times, how would i do this without burning out the LCD or something? in other words "the safest way to discharge"
And would it be ok to put my zen tocuh on the charager everynight? ill probly use it less then 5 hours a dayMessage Edited by antichristhydra on 02-0-2005 09:45 PM

As long as they're .mp3 format, they should work on your zen, its highly unlikely they won't. Just try them out when you get your zen.
You'll be supplied with software to convert your audio-cds to mp3s when you get your zen. You'll get manuals and everything, don't worry its pretty simple stuff. If you want to start now you can always get various freeware programs off the internet and start converting you CDs. I like using "dBpoweramp music converter" (http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm), which is very easy to use.
All they mean when they say you should 'discharge' your zen, is that you should charge up the zen completely (about 5hrs I think in total) and then completely discharge it, i.e. untill it says "Battery Low!" and it automatically switches off. You can just leave it on overnight or simply use it, but don't worry about the LCD screen, it aint gonna blow!
Its best to 'discharge' completely about 3 times when you first get your zen before you start charge it bit by bit. Its good practice to always discharge it completely, but not by any means essential. I frequently do quick charges and my zen touch has an average battery life of 8hrs, pretty good if you ask me!

  • I need help with a question about formatting and recovery

    Hello, I have accidentally downloaded a trojan virus onto my computer and I have been told by tech support that the only way to completely rid my computer of its effects is to format my hard drive and restore my computer to factory defaults. I only NEED a handful of files and they arent infected so i already have them on a flash drive ready to be copied over to a restored version. 
    My Toshiba A665 S6050 supposedly has the recovery items and to access it you must hold "0" while starting it up... is that true? if it is true, after I format my hard drive, will i still be able to hold "0" on start-up and restore it to factory defaults or will formatting it wipe out that function?
    Thanks ahead of time , -Mark

    Mark, if you elect to restore your hard disk to it's original out-of-the-box contents, then the whole disk will be exactly the way you got it, including the recovery partition.
    See the section Recovering the Internal Storage Drive, which begins on p. 61 of the User's Guide.

  • Question about format and capture in FCP7

    I'm capturing SD NTSC 29.97 footage and want to convert it to Pro Res 422 HQ. Do I have to capture it as 10 bit NTSC Uncompressed and then use compressor to turn that into ProRes, or if I set capture to Prores 422 HQ will it convert the footage during capture..or..when I do an Apple-E to export it from the capture, is that when it would convert to Pro Res?  What is the best way to do what I'm after here?  Converting NTSC (BetaSP) to ProResw 422 HQ? Please outline the steps. Thanks very much!  Steve

    What device are you using to ingest the Beta SP?

  • I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

    I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

    Yes, you can do all of that via Tools - Forms - More Form Options - Import Data, if you have Acrobat.
    If you only have the free Reader then you can still do it, but it requires a script.

  • One last question about building and formatting

    When I am writing my DLT do I need to remove the .layout file and the Data.lay file? It will already be built but I will be using DVDSP3 to write the DLT. Are they removed automatically? The manual seems ambiguous about this.
    Also I need to output in the DDP2.0 format (Its a DVD-9). I can't select this without choosing build and format. I have been testing by building to my desktop and testing on the Apple DVD player. If I choose build and format will it rebuild the project? And if it rebuilds is it possible for me to get something besides what I have been checking? I just want to make sure I write the same thing to the DLT that I have been checking.

    you can also get ddp by just doing format as opposed to build and format. You can not open a ddp image in dvd player to test it, so there really is no use of building it to your hard drive. If you have already built the project and you have a video ts folder, then you can go under format and choose the dlt drive as your location and make sure you are referencing the folder with the videots in it.
    there wont be anychanges from the video ts after it has been built, it is merely converting it into a ddp image.

  • Disk repair failed / should I reformat my drive / how to format and restore

    I have a MacBook Pro late 2011 model and upgraded to Yosemite. The performance on my MB is ok, but just out of curiousity I ran a disk verify, and was told I needed to reboot, hold down CMD / R and run disk repair. I did so and the repair failed. I was promoted to backup and reformat/restore.
    Now, I do backup everything using time machine (not sure though if Parallels image is backed up). I do not however have any install disks for Mac OS.
    My questions:
    1. Should I even bother reformatting my HD?
    2. How do I go about formatting the HD and then re-installing the OS and all of my apps, particularly given that I have no DVD
    Any thoughts are appreciated. Thank you

    If you have extra external HDD, make clone backup with Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper!, then,
    1) boot from external clone backup drive.
    2) reformat internal HDD.
    3) restore from clone backup drive with Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper!.

  • Unable to open .eps file "unknown format and cannot be opened" ?

    A client sent me an .eps file (logo). I tried opening it in Illustrator AND photoshop (just to see if it was saved in one vs the other program) - however to no avail.
    Illustrator gives me a message "unknown format and cannot be opened"
    Photoshop gives me a message "photoshop was unable to parse the postscript".
    I'm using Adobe CS4, and I've never seen this message before—would love to know what this means and how to resolve?
    File attached if anyone is able to open / fix it?
    Thanks kindly,
    Chemol

    Thanks for the advice Scott - does compression improve the .eps?  Is it
    silly for me to ask them to compress it since the file is only 766 KB
    (that's how big the attachment is in my email - though I am unable to open
    it)?
    My friend is able to open it on his end - however the 3rd person (client) is
    the one who sent it, and I have already requested a different version - no
    response from them yet.  Unfortunately what the company "has" is what he
    will likely give to me again (ie: same file / unable to open).  So ... I am
    curious about how I can resolve this issue on my end - if possible?
    Do you know what the AI and Photoshop error messages mean? Could the issue
    be a mac vs PC concern? Or is it a corrupt file? Could it be a software
    version issue (old vs new) ... or Quark incompatibility?
    .... just guessing at this point....Any insight as to what different
    scenarios may apply in this situation would be greatly appreciated ..thank
    you.

  • Blue screen keeps popping up, format and reinstall did not fix problem

    My wife has a Toshiba Satellite A55-S3063 Laptop with Windows XP Home. After we got married in 2008, I noticed SP2 was installed and there was an update ready. She said SP3 never installed and I couldn't get it to install. Even with Registry checks, removing anti-virus, and other suggestions from the MS site, I still couldn't get it to install. I told her we would do a format and reinstall "someday." A month ago, the blue screen of death started coming on regularly and the computer would restart quickly after flashing the blue screen. I did a System Restore from a previous point, but a few days later, it started happening again. I decided to take this opportunity to do a format and reinstall, so I backed everything up. Her computer came with a recovery disk that only gives you the option to do a format and reinstall, not a recovery like I've done on other computers. So the format was really our only option. I did this and installed all the Service Packs (including 3). I put a new battery in (that we hadn't used before) because the old one didn't last very long and I got a blue screen and restart the next time I turned on the computer. AFter that one time, it worked fine the rest of the day. The next day I plugged in the external hard drive (Simpletech 500gb) to move her info back over. A few minutes later, blue screen and system crash. On restart, same thing. Next restart, just a black screen. I decided no big loss if I reinstall again, so I reinstalled again. Now I just get the blue screen during setup. Right after I type in the computer name and click "Next" I can hear the hard drive spinning and then the blue screen and system restarts. The blue screen is not up long enough to read, so I can't give you an error message. 
    I can only assume this a hardware problem, but I don't know what or how to fix it. We have her sister's old computer which is the same computer, bought at the same time, but stopped working years ago. So with explicit instructions, I might be able to retrieve hardware from that. Except the hard disk; her sister kept that and is using it as a small external drive. 

    this link should give you some info on how to get it open to everything

  • I have an iPhone 5c I tapped the lines at the top of the calendar and the format changed to a list. My calendar events disappeared and I can no longer fill any events in. I want to return my calendar to its previous format and can't get it to go back.

  • IDVD, the Quicktime format and 16:9

    Hi,
    I´ve got a problem with widescreen format and Mac. I´ve edited about 10 short clips with Premiere Pro CS3 on a PC, but when it came to authoring the DVD found I no software for the PC that could handle 16:9 and 5.1 well. I´ve now moved the videos to my friends Macbook Pro and try to author a DVD with iDVD6.
    I noticed that my problem was a common one; iDVD shows 16:9 material as 4:3 in preview (haven´t burned anything yet). Then I noticed that even when I play the video files on the Macbook, before even touching iDVD, they´re played in 4:3! On my PC, after being exported from Premiere Pro, they´re played as 16:9 (because they are 16:9!), but as soon as I move them to Macbook they´re played as 4:3.
    Here´s the settings I used to export the files in Premiere Pro CS3:
    File type : Microsoft DV
    Compressor : DV - PAL
    Frame Size : 720h 576 v 16:9
    Frame Rate 25,00 fps
    Pixel Aspect Ratio : D1/DV PAL Widescreen 16:9 (1.422)
    Channels : 5.1
    You see, the files are clearly 16:9 and they DO look weird when played on Macbook. I´m sure if I could figure out how to make Macbook/Quicktime player realise these are 16:9 videos, they would look correct in iDVD as well.
    Any ideas?
    Despite some problems, I really start to like the Mac.
    P.S. If I export with the same settings, but change file type to Quicktime:
    File type : Quicktime
    Compressor : DV - PAL
    Frame Size : 720h 576 v 16:9
    Frame Rate 25,00 fps
    Pixel Aspect Ratio : D1/DV PAL Widescreen 16:9 (1.422)
    Channels : 5.1
    I get a nice Quicktime file - in 4:3! What is the problem here, there´s plenty of settings showing that the export will be done in 16:9, but still the Quicktime format makes the final file a 4:3?
    Message was edited by: abrotherus

    abrotherus,
    Your files are anamorphic 16:9 (16:9 content squeezed down into the 4:3 standard definition format). The files need to have the 4:3/16:9 'flag' set correctly in the file format to be recognized as 16:9 by iDVD.
    One way to correct the files is to use Anamorphicizer which can be found at: http://homepage.mac.com/sith33/FileSharing34.html

  • How to format and make partitions on my G20?

    hello

    1- format C: with use windows Pro XP.

    3- how can I partitions my C: from 80GB to 20GB
    thanks
    Please ASAP

    Hi
    If you install the OS using Microsoft WXP full version at the beginning of the installations procedure there is an option who allows you to create the partition C. before the installation starts the partition will be formatted and prepared for the new installation.
    You can install what you want. Buy the WXP Professional and install it on your Qosmio. All drivers, tools and utilities for WXP Home and Prof. version are the same.
    Make attention about HDD free space for Qosmioplayer. The best tool for HDD prearrangement is a Partition magic. This tool is very powerful.

  • New LUN Takes A long Time To Format and Errors Out

    Good afternoon,<o:p></o:p>
    I have a Hyper-V Cluster composed of 4 nodes and these nodes are able to access multiple CSVs (14 in total). I recently requested a new LUN (LUN 15)to be provisioned
    to my Hyper-V cluster in the size of 500GB. Here is my problem:<o:p></o:p>
    1. Formatting of a 500GB LUN (with quick format selected) should not take more than a few seconds. Instead, the quick format takes about 2hrs if not longer. I have actually
    seen it go for half the day.<o:p></o:p>
    2. Once the formatting has completed (no errors), taking the formatted LUN offline freezes the Computer Management screen and shows the status (Not Responding). This
    will take place for 30 minutes or less and show that the LUN has been taken offline.<o:p></o:p>
    3. In the Failover Cluster Manager, detecting the disks takes about 15 minutes. Once the available LUNs have been detected I can add the 500GB LUN to the Disks screen
    without any problems.<o:p></o:p>
    4. While in the Disks screen, adding the LUN to the Clustered Shared Volumes takes about 5 minutes (too long).<o:p></o:p>
    Already seeing that there is a problem, I went ahead and used the Hyper-V Manager to create a 200GB vhd on the new LUN which has been added to the CSV. The bar indicating
    the progress of the vhd creation does not display any progress (no green progress bar appears, not even a tiny bit of it) and after 3 hours (more or less) I receive an error, stating that the creation of the vhd failed.
    <o:p>NOTE: The vhd shows up in Volume 9 (LUN 15) but I can only bet that it will not work, plus I would not want to work with a vhd file which failed during the
    creation process.</o:p>
    <o:p>Long story short, I repeated the above steps to see if that was a temporary problem, but it is not. The same problem occurs no matter which Hyper-V cluster
    node the operations are performed on. I would like to add, that I tested the creation of a vhd on an already configured LUN and the creation was completed successfully, and within a n expected time frame.</o:p>
    NOTE: When LUN 15 errors out, it's status shows "Failed" in the Failover Cluster Manager. This in turn, causes the re-scanning of available disks to take forever (in Computer Management) and it keeps searching. Pretty
    much, the fail of one LUN affects the entire functionality of the entire Hyper-V Cluster. 
    Errors Listed In Event Details For LUN 15:
    1. Cluster Shared Volume 'Volume9' ('Cluster Disk 5') is no longer accessible from this cluster node because of error 'ERROR_TIMEOUT(1460)'. Please troubleshoot this node's connectivity to the storage device and
    network connectivity.
    Event ID: 5142; Source: Microsoft-Windows Failover Clustering;Task Category: Cluster Shared Volume
    2. Cluster Shared Volume 'Volume9' ('Cluster Disk 5') is no longer available on this node because of 'STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT(c00000b5)'. All I/O will temporarily be queued until a path to the volume is reestablished.
    Event ID: 5120; Source: Microsoft-Windows Failover Clustering;Task Category: Cluster Shared Volume
    3.Cluster resource 'Cluster Disk 5' of type 'Physical Disk' in clustered role '4530acc9-8552-4696-b6c3-636ff8d58c46' failed.
    Based on the failure policies for the resource and role, the cluster service may try to bring the resource online on this node or move the group to another node of the cluster and then restart it.  Check the resource and group state using Failover
    Cluster Manager or the Get-ClusterResource Windows PowerShell cmdlet. 
    Event ID: 1069; Source: Microsoft-Windows Failover Clustering;Task Category: Resource Control Manager
    4.
    Cluster resource 'Cluster Disk 5' (resource type 'Physical Disk', DLL 'clusres.dll') did not respond to a request in a timely fashion. Cluster health detection will attempt to automatically recover by terminating the Resource Hosting Subsystem (RHS)
    process running this resource. This may affect other resources hosted in the same RHS process. The resources will then be restarted. 
    The suspect resource 'Cluster Disk 5' will be marked to run in an isolated RHS process to avoid impacting multiple resources in the event that this resource failure occurs again. Please ensure services, applications, or underlying infrastructure
    (such as storage or networking) associated with the suspect resource is functioning properly.
    Event ID: 1230; Source: Microsoft-Windows FailoverClustering;Task Category: Resource Control Manager
    Any and all help will be appreciated!

    Hi AquilaXXIII,

    Your HD may be crashed, so you probably should use the oringinal install discs to run Apple Hardware Test in extended mode. If error codes appear this confirms a hardware failure. In addition you cannnot repair the HD using Disk Utility from the startup disk, you have to use the origninal Install discs that shipped with the computer or the most up-to-date version of OS X on a disc that you have.

  • "E:\filename.ai" is in an unknown format and cannot be opened"

    My computer crashed. I just re-installed Adobe Illustrator 10.03. Now some of my ".ai" files show funny looking icons and won't open and instead a pop-up that says "E:\filename.ai" is an unknown format and cannot be opened". Some of my documents are just fine. But there are several Illustrator docs in various spots on my hard drive that are giving me this error.
    Any suggetions on how to get these files to open up?

    OK. Now we're getting somewhere.
    Without knowing more about the precise nature and cause of the "crash," we can only make guesses, and here's mine:
    Basically, Katie, you're screwed.
    My guess is that either the "crash" and/or your boss's subsequent handling of the D: drive (which might have been entirely proper) has caused data corruption on that drive.
    If you have no backup for the files on the drive, and if those files are of critical importance, I would disconnect the drive immediately and get it to a data recovery specialist. The longer you have it connected, the more you reduce the chance of recovering data.
    If the data are somewhat less than critical, you can try some basic recovery steps yourself. Start by making an image backup of the drive (to an external drive or removable media), then run chkdsk on it with the /r option. Rename any recovered files (with the .ai extension), and try opening them.
    Finally, you might send the .ai files that won't open to a specialist who knows the Illustrator file format. He/she might be able to make some partial fixes that will, at least, enable you to open the files.
    If you want, upload a few of the files to a server and post the link here. Some of the experts here might have a crack at it. (Put the files in a .zip archive first to protect them against further corruption during transfer.)

  • Is there a way to view Flash videos on my iMac without downloading Adobe Flash Player? I'm concerned about performance and security with Flash Player.

    Is there a way to view Flash videos on my iMac without downloading Adobe Flash Player? I'm concerned about performance and security with Adobe Flash Player.

    If the video is only available in a format that requires Flash player : then no.
    However, a great many can also be viewed in an HTML5 version, in which case http://hoyois.github.io/safariextensions/clicktoplugin/ or similar can be set up so that Flash never runs unless you specifically choose it to.
