Saving and converting

I have set QT pro as the program I use to play web based mp3's. Then I save the mp3 using the 'save a source' selection in QT. This shows the file is saved as an mp3. Yet when I move them into iTunes by dropping them on the library icon the file type when I get info says Quicktime. Even though the import command has import as mp3 selected. In fact, if do a get info via the finder on the mp3 I downloaded it says mp3 not quicktime. Though the icon is qt not mp3. This a problem because iTunes shows all these mp3's as QT files and I have to convert them to mp3 and delete the originals. A real pain. Any ideas about how to streamline this? I have pasted an mp3 icon over the qt icon on a mp3 file and itunes saw it as an mp3. Still, too much trouble.
thanks,

Found out a bit more -
Firstly make sure that you have the latest version of iTunes - beyond version 5 upwards may get rid of the problem in itself as there was an issue in version 4 with reading certain quicktime files.
This problem is due to file extensions for mp3 files. iTunes pays attention to these extensions -- .mp3, .mp4 etc. -- and any files that do not adhere to the standard naming are recongnised as Quicktime files. This is of particular note for anything tagged "MPEG" as itunes will think this is Quicktime. So check the tag of anything you download and make sure it is not called "MPEG"
Oh - and dont paste icons over file info - it confuses the **** out of the OS and can cause instability issues galore!
Hope that helps.

  • Different output when saving and converting Word documents

    Hi,
    I have some issues with images when converting some Word documents to PDF and I hope someone can enlighten me :-). If I convert the Word document by simply right clicking on it and selecting the option to Convert To Adobe PDF, it will create a file that is mostly fine, with the exception of some of the images which are being split into segments, making the image text unreadable.
    However, if I save the file as PDF in Microsoft Word (both 2010 or 2013), then I have no such an issue, since the image is not being split into segments and the text is perfectly readable. I have also attached some examples, see below. Ideally I would like to be able to convert several Word documents at once, and saving each documents in Microsoft Word would be too time consuming. Any help on this, will be really appreciated.
    1) Converting to PDF, the image is split into segments and the text is unreadable
    2) Saving as PDF in Word, does not split the image and it retains the original quality and readable text

    Hi  Linuxxo,
    If the issue is not fixed with the option suggested by Rave.
    We would need the files for investigation. Request you to share your email id for correspondence.
    In addition please share which version of Acrobat are you using?

  • Download and convert Youtube video to MP3---Just with one click

    Download and convert Youtube video to MP3---Just with one click
    Last week, when wandering around the Youtube watch.com, I was enthralled with the theme song of "Lost", especially the words of the song "I found out, on the corner of first and amistad, where the west was all but won all weeklong, smoking his last cigarette, I said: "Where you been?" He said: "ask anything.""......"
    I couldn’t help expecting to save this song to my personal players. What a delightful thing listening to the song while walking or waiting for a bus! Okay, do you have the same experience as me? When hearing an exciting speech or dialogue, are you thirsty for downloading them and saving as your best memory?
    Download, convert Youtube to mp3?—yes, you can.
    Anna, one of my best friends, has posed a question "I have a Mac notebook and I only need the audio (mp3 music) of a certain Youtube movie, what shall I do?" The solution to the problem is shown as below:
    Step one: Install a Youtube Converter for Mac as follows:
    Step two: import the URL of Youtube video (or batches of URL) you wanna convert using "Add URL" icon. Select output format like audio (MP3) by "Settings" and customize your output file path with "Browse".
    Step three: If you want your output audio much better, you can set the audio resolution like Bit Rate, Channels or Sample Rate presented in the following picture.
    Step four: Click "Ok” button, it automatically download and convert your youtube videos simultaneously. After a few minutes, you can get the desirable audio (mp3) you want and enjoy it on any portable devices.
    Download, convert Youtube videos to iPod, iPhone, iPhone 3Gs, PSP, Creative Zen, Zune, iRiver, and etc. --- done by one click.
    Generally, if you want to download a Youtube video and then convert them to MP3 for your mobile devices, you need two Youtube tools: Youtube Downloader and Youtube Converter. But, now, with Pavtube Youtube Converter for Mac, you can both download and convert massive videos by clicking one "Ok" button.
    Now, all the best, you can enjoy versatile Youtube music at a waiting room, on a bus, traveling, walking around the park or lying on your bed..

    Youtube's ToU specifically state that downloads of any content is prohibited unless there is a download button available for a particular video.

  • H:selectOneMenu and converter problem

    Hello
    I'm working on an application (Address Database) using JSF (Base JSF libs with IBM Faces). Apache Tomcat Server 5.5.
    Since days i'm trying to solve my problem with h:selectOneMenu and converter. I can save values correctly, but i cannot display the saved value again as a selected item.
    so here is my jsf code section:
         <h:selectOneMenu value="#{personBean.person.representative}"
                        styleClass="fldDefault fldcombo">
                        <f:selectItems value="#{partnerBean.representatives}" />
                        <f:converter converterId="keywordConvertor" />
                        <f:attribute name="SelectItemArrayList"
                             value="#{partnerBean.representatives}" />
         </h:selectOneMenu>
    representatives are keywords and in the selectOneMenu, a representative keyword object is stored.
    here is my partnerBean.jsp Code:
         private List<SelectItem> representatives = null;
         * populate keywords of type REPRESENTATIVE
         public void populateRepresentatives() {
              representatives = new ArrayList<SelectItem>();
              ArrayList<Keyword> representativeKeywords = kwHandler
                        .getKeywordsByType(KW_REPRESENTATIVE_TYPE);
              for (Keyword keyword : representativeKeywords) {
                   representatives.add(new SelectItem(keyword, keyword
                             .getKwDescription()));
    so the function gets the representative keyword objects, loop through them and add a newly created SelectItem Object to the representatives list.
    There is a converter in order to save and display (should!!) the values:
    public class KeywordConvertor implements Converter {
         public Object getAsObject(FacesContext context, UIComponent component,
                   String value) {
    ....code for saving...
         public String getAsString(FacesContext context, UIComponent component,
                   Object obj) {
    `          System.out.println(((Keyword) obj).getId()+"");
              return ((Keyword) obj).getId()+"";
    i did not provide the code for getAsObject, since the saving of the combo box works fine. If it has to do something with my problem, please ask me for this code..
    The System.out.prinln prints all ids correctly, but the generated HTML Code does not select the given value in the combobox.
    So whats wrong with the getAsString Method? or is the function completely somewhere else?
    I have to say that the function ((Keyword) obj).getId() returns a long !! is that the problem?
    Any help is very appreciated

    Hello
    i implemented the function in the Keyword Class:
    public class Keyword implements Serializable {
         public boolean equals(Keyword kw) {
              System.out.println("calling equals in:" + kw.getId());
              if (kw.getId() == this.getId()) {
                   return true;
              } else {
                   return false;
    but the System.out.print is not executed...
    i tried also:
         public boolean equals(Object o) {
              Keyword kw = (Keyword) o;
              System.out.println("calling equals in:" + kw.getId());
              if (kw.getId() == this.getId()) {
                   return true;
              } else {
                   return false;
    but then i get the following error message:
    org.apache.jasper.JasperException: javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: could not initialize proxy - no Session
    hmmm, could you show me how to implement the equals Function correctly?

  • How do i save an uploaded and converted document if i am not on my own computer?

    i am on a borrowed laptop at work.
    i signed in to Adobe CreatePDF, uploaded a saved PDF, converted to EXCEL, clicked "save"
    nothing happens.
    how do i save or open the excel spreadsheet?

    Hi, AddCare1.
    I'm sorry for the issues you're having.
    It sounds like you're doing the following:
    In CreatePDF web application, choosing "Export PDF..." and exporting to XLSX
    Successfully completing the conversion process.
    Trying to select "Download" (see image below) yet nothing is happing.
    Did I understand that correctly?
    What if you close this dialog, select the XLSX in the file list and then choose "Download" from the toolbar (in between "Open" and "Send for Signature"). Does that work?
    With a little more information, we can try to help you further.

  • Make connect presentation offline and convert flv

    hi there,
    I have a problem with converting flv files from connect presentations. 1 of my clients wants to have his adobe connect meeting as a wmv or avi file.
    So i saved this presentation from the server to my laptop (make offline, save flv file)
    What i noticed is that audio is not separated. When importing this flv file in adobe premiere or soundbooth or the mediaencoder, there is no sound(track) in non of this programs.
    The next step i took from what i'v read from a forum is to buy 4Media 'Audio Converter Pro' and convert the audio. So far it works but when importing the audio and video file in adobe premiere i see that my
    audio file is about 5minutes shorter 01:05:09 in comparison to my videofile 01:10:49. So i thought: 'this is a frequency issue'. But when i checked the flv file it says that its 44.1 Khz and
    the converted file is the same. Can somebody tell me how to solve this problem.
    Thanks in advance
    Frank Schel

    Hi Tulse!
    Thanks for your reply! But the problem is that when i convert to wmv i get just a video... Lets say that when i export my keynote to quicktime, i can do it so when i open it on quicktime i can just click and the presentation would pass as if i was on keynote. But when i convert it to windows media and open it, it would just go through as if it was a video...

  • Excise invoice is not saving and not showing datas

    in erxcise invoice i ve made settings as per the sap best practices then also the excise invoice is not saved and not generated also
    please help me to solve the problem
    the error is coming like this
    Error in allocating Excise invoice number Interval not found Number object J_1IEXCLOC
    Message no. 8I336
    i ve already maintainthe number range for this object in tool in tax in goods moment
    please give some better advice for the excise invoice setting.

    Sub Transaction type determines the subcontracting attributes and determines the accounts for the posting while doing a sub contracting transaction.
    Sub transaction type is also used for determining the accounts while
    doing excise removals.
    Within CIN the account determination is based on the transaction type.
    So normally you can have a single set of accounts for Excise
    utilization. In case you need alternate account determination for
    handling various scenarios you can define sub transaction types. The
    sub transaction types and corresponding account assignments needs to be
    maintained in CIN customization
    To make customization of Sub Transaction type, goto
    <b>SPRO --> Logistics General --> Tax on Goods Movements --> India --> Account Determination and check whether you have assigned second and third one, viz. "Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction and Specify GL Accounts per Excise Transaction".</b>
    Check
    <b>Taxes on goods mvnt--indiaaccnt determination---specify excise accnts for excise transaction...maintain the sub transction type , ip or 01,
    against the appropriate ETT</b>

  • Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera'

    Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera's DSC files?

    DNG files do not contain some metadata supplied by the camera, which can be used by the manufacturer's software. Thus, if you don't keep the original Raw photo, you will lose this information.
    If your 1000% sure you're never going to use the manufacturer's software, then this isn't a problem. But who can be sure what software you will be using 10 years from now?

  • Open and converting raw in ps 7

    how can i open and convert raw nef images from my 35mm nikon into pdf using ps 7?  Raw is listed under OPEN as a category but i cannot make it happen.

    You need to first open the NEF file in Photoshop, and if you are really talking about the very old version 7, there is every chance that will be a problem.  I don't even know if Version 7 supported Camera RAW, but I think it did.  So I am having to guess because of the age of the version you are using, but you will probably need to download the free DNG converter.

  • Billing plan (Downpayment) for saved and open sales orders at header level?

    Hi gurus,
    I have configured billing plan in my SD environment at Item Level.
    I want to change it to header level.
    Questions:
    1- When I make the changes to update the system to have billing plan at header level for future sales orders, is that possible for me to change all my saved orders and open orders with the new settings so that I can also have those saved and open orders with a billing plan at item level?
    2- If that scenario is not possible, could we for example copy the data of a previously saved or open sales order into a new sales order with the new customizing (Billing plan at Header level?)
    Thanks for your input
    Kind regards
    Chris

    Hi
    I am afraid you cannot do that converstion for the existing orders. BP at header level are enabled at teh document type level, while BP at item level is done at item category. So both are independent. Mostly it is advisabel to use BP at item level only.
    If you are already using item level BP, and want to mvoe to header BP, then only future transactions can be executed with BP at header level. Existing item level BPlans will remain so in the system.

  • Major problem saving and printing documents on two computers

    This is a bizarre problem that seems to have been transferred from my old MDD to my new Mini when I migrated all my old data and it has me baffled. My apologies if this explanation seems long and complicated but I want to be pretty thorough.
    About a month ago I started experiencing a problem with printing. I noticed when printing a sheet of business cards that the page was getting compressed, for lack of a better word, vertically. This was very noticeable because the trim marks on the side of the page were not lining up with the perforations and each row of cards was getting progressively closer to the top as each row was printed. In other words, the first row of cards was okay but then the next row was a little too far "north", the next row a little more, the next row a little more, etc. The bottom of the page was not cut off, it was just squeezed up a bit but not enough that you could tell that the proportions were off. Now I see that many of my documents are like that no matter what application I've use to create them – Pages, Illustrator, Avery DesignPro. What's even worse, I've used Pages to create a sheet of business cards for a friend and Illustrator to make packaging labels and she's having the same problem printing the PDFs of the labels on a different computer. What this seems to tell me is that something has been corrupted and the computer is saving messed up files.
    So, about ten days ago I got a Mini and migrated my data using Migration Assistant. And the problem has now been transferred to the Mini. So I now have two Macs connected to two different HP printers that are both incapable of printing (and apparently saving) documents in the proper proportions.
    Now, a truly weird thing is that I printed a test sheet of business cards from the Mini on the printer connected to the MDD (via printer sharing) and it appeared that the document printed at the correct length. However, another document, a sheet of labels created in Illustrator, printed at the right length but one edge was slightly cropped off. Grrr.
    Anyway, as I said, until about a month ago everything worked fine so something got messed up at that time to cause this problem with saving and printing documents. I need to get this resolved for business reasons – I'm an aspiring designer – but the only thing I can think of doing is wiping out my Mini and reloading everything except my account settings from Time Machine unless someone has advice on what to do. Help! (And yes, I've checked to see that page scaling was always set at 100%.)

    Well, I've just about had it. I erased the disk, reinstalled the OS, Adobe CS4, and iWork. I did not use Migration Assistant this time to restore my settings but still my Mac prints documents in the wrong dimensions. Could this be a sudden HP problem? It seems to me some system setting somewhere is making my computer save and print documents in the wrong size. I now have a computer that is almost useless for designing. Lucky me.

  • Open Photoshop 3 files and convert to TIFF or JPEG --- on the cheap!

    Hello,
    I have about a hundred large scans in PS3 format on DVD.
    I never use PS or other pro photo SW; only iPhoto.
    My last PS is v7.
    I run the latest Snow Leopard on my new MBP 17 iCore7.
    All I want is to recover these files and convert them to the highest quality and most accessible format without having to spend my $, only my time.
    Can anyone put me near this goal?
    ---h

    I'm not sure what you mean by "PS3 format"--do you mean they are psd files that were created in Photoshop 3? As far as I remember Photoshop 3 simply created standard Photoshop files that, if one chose to have extensions (which you didn't have to way back then) had a .psd extension. If the files are indeed Photoshop files, but without the extension, you can simply copy them off the DVD and add the .psd extension to them. Preview will usually open psd files. I do have at least one VERY old psd file that Preview won't open, it displays a note in English and French, that Photoshop 3 is required. It does open with Photoshop Elements 8 and the free GIMP. Why it won't open in Preview I don't know, perhaps because it has three layers, two of which are text layers. Other psd files with layers DO open in Preview, although they often look a bit peculiar, and files with just one layer, created at the same time, open fine. Also, iPhoto will generally open psd files, and even display one with layers correctly (as if it had been flattened), but will not handle files with alpha channels very gracefully, nor will Preview. The GIMP has no problem with layers nor alpha channels.
