Rip music with Apple Lossless but compress when sending to my Ipod

When I pull my music off a cd onto my computer via Itunes, I want to use Apple Lossless compression. When I want to sync the music to my ipod I want to compress down to 128kbps. How can I go about doing this?
Rob

I use two libraries - a 'Lossless' library and an 'iPod' library. I use a script (http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/ituneslibrarymanager.php) to toggle between them. This allows me to stream lossless at home over my network without being confused by two sets of each song.

"I have been able to convert to AAC by first converting to AIFF and then to AAC. This is a pan though."
this worked for me.
thanks.

When you connect the iPad to the computer can you see any apps in the apps list at all in iTunes?
Connect the iPad to the computer and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Apps Tab on the right.
Do you see apps in that apps list? If you do, click on all of the apps that you want to sync.
Click on the Sync Apps Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

Burning a CD downloaded from iTunes with Apple Lossless

As the subject says, I am trying to figure out how to burn the highest quality audio CD from an album purchased from iTunes. I've seen other articles that speak of the Apple Lossless, but have not been able to find it on the program anywhere. Does anyone know, is it possible to burn a high quality audio CD, using Lossless or something similar, from something bought from iTunes?
I tried to search the forums for an answer on this and came up empty, my apologies if I missed something and this has come up previously. Thank you for your help!

Regardless of what format the songs in the library are, when you burn a list of songs using the Audio CD setting it is automatically formatted to normal CD standard so the disc will play in regular players. Converting your iTunes Plus (AAC) formatted songs to lossless prior to burning would make no difference to the sound quality. You would only have a quality difference if the songs had been ripped/created in lossless format in the first place. Converting from a lossy format such as AAC to a lossless format such Apple Lossless can't add back the information already discarded when the file was compressed.

I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

Do not worry about it.
Time Machine needs that your external drive is formatted in HFS+, or better known as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". This filesystem is used by Apple on Macs and Windows cannot read or write drives formatted with this filesystem, being this the reason why all your devices do not read the external drive except your Mac.
You can only use your external drive to make Time Machine drives. If you store anything different, you may damage the Time Machine structure, so it is better not to use it as a drive to store other data. Instead, get another external drive to do it or create a second partition on the external drive formatted in FAT32 by using Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html FAT32 can be read by Windows PCs

Want to replace Wav Files with Apple Lossless in the same folder...Scripts?

Hello!
I have about 4,000 wav files (wow) that I digitized from Vinyl. I organize my media folder myself (I have the organize option unchecked in preferences) and most of the songs are not properly tagged. I would love to convert the wav files to apple lossless and have Itunes save the file in the same folder from where it originated. I havent found a way to do this yet. Its weird to me that I can select a song in a playlist and hit "Show in Finder" and it knows exactly where it is yet when I convert files to apple lossless they end up in the "unknown artist-unknown album" folder. Anyone have any ideas or is there any scripts that can do this for me ? thanks so much!!
I had found one script that deletes the original wav files but still the new apple lossless are still put in the unknown album folder.....

When iTunes converts a file, it does not allow you to direct the location of the output file, but rather places it according to the Artist/Album tags, which in your case are unknown.
Almost every other conversion tool allows you to direct the location of the output. There are not a huge choice that run on the Mac and support Apple Lossless, but a good one is Max.

Two Macbook pros circa 2009 in our temporary household in Turkey suddenly failed to boot and got stuck on the grey screen. They were able to boot at the Apple store, but not when we brought them back to our apartment. Could this be a coincidence? A

THank you Ogelthorpe. When my wife's computer I went on line to the site that you sent and tried everything But nothing worked. When my son came to visit and his MacBook Pro did exactly the same thing we became suspicious - too much of a coincidence. We took both computers somewhere else, out of our apartment, and they both booted. We ran disk utility on both, but the report in both cases was that there are no issues with the hard drive. Back in our apartment neither will boot up. My MacBook Pro is a later model with a solid state drive and it seems to work fine here.. I tried an external drive and it works fine. We think that this has something to do with some kind of magnetic interference in our apartment to which the 2009 drives are susceptible. It is indeed a mystery!

How do I add a desktop link to additional email accounts? I have one email account as my safari home page because it has trouble with apple mail, but I want a one-click link on my desktop that takes me to two other email accounts.

Can you set up a rule in your old account to forward mail to your new account and then delete it from the old account?

can you please help me fix this?

You could repartition your drive to have a different OS X with the older iTunes there, and the newer iTunes on the existing partition. Back up everything beforehand. See Kappy's advice in this thread. Partitioning my Hard Drive

Ipod Classic Buffer Overload with apple lossless

My 160GB Classic occasionally pauses or stalls for a few seconds much like the buffer is overloaded and is reloading. The pause is intermittent (never the same place in same song), it lasts about 2 seconds then the song resumes right where it left off.
My Ipod is loaded with Apple Lossless songs which all play fine on my Mac.
The genius bar has been no help. Reloading and/or upgrading the software on my ipod has not fixed the problem (genius bar suggestion).
Has anyone had a similar experience?

I don't think the pauses have anything to do with Apple Lossless encoding. I get these pauses on occasion with 32kbps audiobooks.
Enjoy life,
Steven

I'm from Perú. My iPad doesn't work. I'm trying to contact with apple support but I can't. What can I do? How can I contact them?

I am Eileen. I'm from Perú.
I'm really concerned.
My iPad doesn't work since 2 months ago. And I can't do anything. In the Istore (where I bought my iPad, 1 year and 5 months ago) said that they couldn't repair it, and I must to go to USA to fix it.
So I'm trying to contact with apple support but it's impossible.
I hope you can contact me, and it would be better if someone who speaks spanish contact me.
Thanks.

You may have to try and contact the authorized Apple support in Mexico or Brazil:
Latin America and the Caribbean
Brazil
0800-761-0880
Mexico
001-866-676-5682
iPhone:
001-800-692-7753
The 800-numbers to contact Apple (US) we see at the main Apple Store (US) are not
able to be used out-of-country; some listed in the Contact Apple are main numbers
though and one could pay the toll-charges to try ones luck...

You need the original owner to remove the device from his or her account. There is no workaround.

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out and sign back in.
- Go to a computer and go to iTunes>Store and sign in.
