Recording a voice and formatting it for e-mail

my mac book pro is standard with no special programs. how can I record a voice, what format should i save it in to attach it to an e-mail.
thanks

QuickTime Player would be my recommendation, it will save as Audio.mov by default which you can drag and drop into your Mail document. PC users will also be able to listen to this if they have installed the Free version of QuickTime for Windows.

  • How do I record my voice and other sounds using the microphone in my HP TouchSmart 15?

    I just recently got an HP TouchSmart 15 notebook PC and know very little about how to use it.  I'd like to use the onboard microphone to record my voice and other sounds, ending up with sound files that I can save and use in creating multi-media presentations.  Thanks for helping me learn how to do that!

  • Question about voice and data plan for Europe

    I am in New York and my boss is going to France for a week and a half. He told me he will not have access to the internet there. He asked me to find out if it would be possible to get a voice and data plan for the month that he will be there, and if so, could someone show me where I could look at the different plans available?
    If it's not possible to do that for just a month, then could someone tell me where I could find the rates are for voice and data in France?
    Thanks

    Hi kevindrosario,
    I appreciate your interest in our International Services.  France, is a GSM country and will only support a Global capable device. Unfortunately, its not clear if your boss has a Global capable device.  If so, here are the details for the voice and data rates for France.
    If your boss doesn't not have a Global capable device, no worries!  We offer an Occasional Global Traveler program, in which we will loan you a Global device for up to 21 days.  I hope this information is helpful.  Please let me know if you have any any additional questions or concerns.
    Thank you,

  • If I have an i-pod classic and format it for windows, will all the original music be erased?, If I have an i-pod classic and format it for windows, will all the original music be erased?

    If I have an i-pod classic and format it for windows for my new Dell laptop, will the original music on it be erased?

    Yes, but if the device is formatted for Mac then you'll either need a Mac or an HFS+ driver for Windows (try hfsexplorer) to extract the data from it. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for some ideas on recovery. The manual method listed at the bottom of the table and the driver should be enogh if you only need the media and aren't worried about ratings, play counts and playlists.

  • I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures for my Mail is not showing up. I have the signatures inthe preference panes and selected for the email address, but when I make a new message, the signature shows as none and doesn't give me a choice

    I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures for my Mail are not showing up. I have the signatures inthe preference panes and selected for the email address, but when I make a new message, the signature shows as none and doesn't give me a choice. Yesterday, the signatures were stacking instead of switching to the one I wanted to choose.

    I had this and fixed it.
    I had upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures in Mail were fine. But then about a week later, I got a new computer and used Migration Assistant to copy my stuff to the new machine. Upon opening Mail, I had all the correct Signature information in the Preferences>Signatures window, but nothing worked.
    After lots of hunting, I found the Signature Folder. It's in:
    Yourusername>Library>Mail>V2>MailData>Signatures
    Looking at my previous setup (which works) I saw in that folder two types of files: .webarchive and .siganture
    Looking in my new machine's Signature folder, I saw only the .webarchive folders, not the .signature folders
    Since this was literally a clone of my previous setup to a new machine, here's what I did:
    1. Quit Mail
    2. In Problem machine, go to
    Yourusername>Library>Mail>V2>MailData>Signatures
    3. Move the Signatures folder someplace safe, but out of the MailData folder
    4. Get the Signatures Folder from the working install (like a backup) and copy it to the MailData folder on the problematic machine
    5. Start Mail on the problem machine
    This worked for me. I don't know why Migration Assistant didn't copy the full signature folder, but this fixed it. It worked perfectly partly because I had just backed up with Carbon Copy Cloner and the very next day set up the new machine. I don't know where Lion or earlier versions of mail stored signatures, but the absence of the .signature filetype seems to be the problem.
    Hope this helps

  • When will you make iOS app ADOBE VOICE and ADOBE SLATE for iPad usefull for iPhone too ?

    I want to use Voice and Slate on my iPhone : will it be possible soon ?

    I've also noticed that crashes increase with hand-animations, especially with embedded sounds. I think the reason behind this is that Macromedia in its latter year or so started a trend that Adobe has continued: to emphasize the performance of objects created and managed through code over ones created and managed on the timeline.
    I find that version control is a great way to handle this. Even if you aren't set up to use a central repository and don't want to be, both Git and Subversion support local repositories that will give you revision points to go back to without copies all over the place. If that's too much overhead, Dropbox also keeps a revision history and I have heard/read that you can go back to previous versions you have stored there. However, I don't know the specific details of how it works.

  • I just my iMac. I would like to compose a letter to a document, make corrections, then cut and past it for e-mail. how do i do it?

    I just bought an iMac. I would like to write a letter to a friend using word document. I then would cut and paste the letter and send it via e mail. How do i do it?

    You can use Text Edit located in your Applications folder.
    For assistance with that app click Help from the Text Edit menu bar.
    Or, you can purchase Pages from the App Store.
    You can access the App Store from your Apple menu > App Store
    Or the App Store icon in the Dock 
    Or your Applications folder.

  • Audio recording, chipmunk voice and stuttering?!

    Hi all, I use the Elgato Game Capture HD with my MacBook Pro to record gaming videos. I use a standard USB headset with a mic to record live commentary over the top, this setup has always worked fine for me, until yesterday.
    After recording my video, when I started editing it, I realised that in recording, the audio had caused my voice to go extremely high pitched, stutter and therefore out of sync with the video and then after about 5 minutes it just completely cut off.
    I thought at first this was a problem with the mic, so I used my more professional mic which is a Zoom Handy Recorder H2 and plugged it in via USB. Same problem. So then I thought, it must be the Elgato recording software. Tried using Audacity to record some audio, it was fine once and then same problems. Which makes me think it's something to do with my MacBook?!
    If anyone's had a similar problem or would even know how I would start to tackle this issue, i'd be incredibly grateful!
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a 5c, and here is how I was able to trim a test recording:
    1. Open the recording file in Voice Memos.
    2. Tap "Edit" at the bottom. It's between the arrow-up symbol and trash can.
    3. On the right side, near the bottom-right corner you'll see a blue box with a round blue dot at the top-left corner of it, and another one at the bottom-right. This is the Trim button. Tap it.
    4. You should now see the recording with the "wavelengths", a vertical blue line (with a blue dot at top and bottom), and on each side a red line (also with red dot at top/bottom).
    5. Touch the left red line and you'll notice you can touch/drag it to the beginning point of your desired portion of the recording.
    6. Touch the right red line and touch/drag it for the recording's end point.
    7. Hit the Play button to play just the trimmed portion, making sure it's what you want.
    8. Once it's what you want, touch "Trim". Up pops "Trim Original" or "Save as New Recording".
    On emailing it, go to the trimmed copy and click the arrow-up symbol, which will allow you to either message or email it.
    EDIT: I found you can name your recording file to what you want by tapping the default name of it. A cursor will appear where then you can delete and retype a custom file name. Great for emailing so you recipients will know what it is by looking at it.

  • Record data (depth and audio) - Kinect for Windows v2

    Hi,
    I am trying to record data from the kinect by using this class: KStudioEventStreamSelectorCollection to get access to IR, Depth, UncompressedColor. I also want audio, but I think i can not use this to get it
    At the moment I can create a XEF or XRF file with those data. However the size of the generated file is too big, something around 1GB per 10 seconds. 
    So, I have two problems/questions:
    1st - Is there an way to decrease the size of the generated file?
    2nd - Is there an way to also record audio and put it together with the other data, creating a xef file with everything?
    I know that Kinect Studio can do this, so I think it is possible. But I do not know how.
    Thank you

    1. No not really, if you are recording Color it is a raw uncompressed format which will be very large in comparison to other streams. If you don't have a need for color, don't record it.
    2. Since Kinect Studio is a shell around these same api's, and Audio is a function of the tool then you will be able to record this as well. It looks like the KStudioEventStreamDataTypeId is missing. You should be able to create a Guid object with
    the following value and pass this in. 
    Guid Audio = new Guid(0x787c7abd, 0x9f6e, 0x4a85, 0x8d, 0x67, 0x63, 0x65, 0xff, 0x80, 0xcc, 0x69);

  • Procedure and format guide for newb?

    I just bought an 30g Video ipod. Is there a guide that tells what is the best way to format and load your ipod. Most of my music is downloaded from cds, not online. What are the advantages/disadvantages to AAC or MP3 (or any other format). When I download my cds to itunes is it automatically converted to MP3 or not until I load the ipod. I understand it is not good to convert from MP3 to AAC, is this correct? As you see, I know nothing, any help is appreciated.

    Welcome to discussions!
    1) AAC & mp3 will give the same file size at the same bitrate when importing. AAC should have better audio quality than an mp3 file at a lower bitrate. Ex.: AAC @128 should equal or better audio quality of mp3 @ 160. The one disadvantage to AAC is that it is not as universal a format as mp3.
    2) You must set your importing preferences to the format & bitrate you desire prior to importing CD's into iTunes, there is no automatic conversion. Importing in AAC, files will be in AAC, etc. There is no "on the fly" conversion of files when transferring to iPod. Whatever format you have used to import into iTunes, will be the format for the files on the iPod.
    3) Converting from one lossy format to another will cause a loss of audio quality. Only your ears can tell if this loss is acceptable or not.
    Any more questions, please post back.

  • When recording my voice and other peoples sometimes are high pitch and sometimes low pi

    It will also be somewhat choppy. I tried reinstalling drivers.
    I can listen to music without any problem but voice communication seems messed up.

    The new expensive earphones wont work. I have tested this with Bowers & Wilkins P5. They are the best and one of the most expensive headphones you can get in the market.
    The sound was awesome on my iPhone 4 and iPad 2. However starting with iPhone 4S Apple has started to use low power Cirrus Logic Sound Chip. The chip compromises on the loudness without giving up the quality of the music. However I am used to listening at full volumes on my iPhone 4 and iPad 2. The music on the new iPad dusnt really make me happy
