Song Sample Files Saved...

I sample a lot of songs from various sites such as Beatport and AudioJelly. The problem is that iTunes saves the songs sampled/streamed in it's library. I then have to delete each one after I'm done. There has to be a way around this. Also, the file gets saved to my desktop. Would you advise using another program to default as my song samplier/streamer? I'd hate to do that, but if iTunes cannot be configured...
Thanks for the help!

You are correct that iTunes cannot be configured to avoid this situation. Aside from changing the downloaded files to go to Quicktime Player instead of iTunes, your best bet is a smart playlist.
If the sites you mention contain an ID3 tag that indicates their source, possibly some copyright statement in the Comments, then build a Smart Playlist that keys on that value. You can quickly delete the automatically collected entries from your library by holding the Command/Apple key as you delete the tracks from the smart playlist.

  • ITunes  won't play songs.  Nor even the song samples at the iTunes store.

    My sound system is working fine. Commercial CDs play in WMP.
    I downloaded latest version of iTunes along with Quicktime. Download/install: no problem. I tried to get some m4p songs I'd saved on a CD to load back into iTunes, and while 1 or 2 appeared in iTunes, they would not play. I click on the spkr icon next to the song...no response. They would not transfer from the CD to iTunes. I gave up trying. (Same thing happens at the Music Store with its 30 second samples.) Doesn't make any differene what song I select. My computer is working fine; I get on the net with no problem. I do not get any error messages. The Diagnosic check from iTunes shows everything normal re my computer settings and network settings. (I'm using XP).
    I tried a "Repair" install of iTunes...didn't help. I uninstalled iTunes and re-downloaded the setup.exe file, then reinstalled iTunes. Didn't change anything.
    At the moment I've no songs in iTunes--when I call iTunes up, I am taken directly to the Music Store where I have a current, functioning account. IS THAT NORMAL WHEN YOU'VE NOT SET UP A PLAYLIST? And am I correct that itunes uses Quicktime to play iTunes songs?
    I have 3 CDs I made of iTunes songs. One was burned with Roxio Easy Media Creator 7.5. Another was burned with XP itself. A third was burned with iTunes and it will play in my car CD Player and in WMP 11 in my computer. iTunes will NOT play any of the three. If I put a commercial music CD in my computer, iTunes loads all into itself the songs and will play them.
    It's a problem when an uninstall and reinstall of iTunes does nothing. I also just ran a Repair Install of XP last night. Went mostly OK; I got a messsage: "Windows could not load the installer for tape controller." I clicked OK as I don't use any tape device. There was another message: "The CinePlayer Decoders have not yet been activated. You must activate the product before use. Please run the player that included these decoders in order to activate the product". Again I clicked OK. I don't know what those cine player decoders do or what a cine player is. Movies? I checked my movie files--they played fine in WMP. I did not copy the CDs (any of them) to my HDD before trying to get them into iTunes but...would that have mattered?
    What to do? I would like to get my Music Store songs back into iTunes from my CDs. Hope a clean XP install is not necessary.

    go into iTunes Preferences-->iPod

  • How to save kontakt sample files in Logic Pro X project?

    Hi,
    I'm using Kontakt (Komplete, Native Instruments) as my samples for my midi in Logic Pro X, and my sample libraries are stored in an external hard drive which I bring around.
    I need to send my Logic file over to another computer which will not have my hard drive that contains my sample libraries.
    Is there a way to save my Kontakt Sample midi files together with Logic's folder, so when I open Logic without my ext Hard Drive, the midi can still be read?
    I tried clicking Save As --> Organize my project as a "Folder", and ticked EVERYTHING --- Audio Files, EXS instruments and samples, Ultrabeat samples, Space Designer impulse responses, Movie file, Include Apple Sound Library Content.
    But when I unplugged my external hard drive (which my sample files are stored), and clicked open that logic file which i saved, windows pop up saying it cannot locate my samples.
    Is this a bug in Logic Pro X, or am I doing something wrong?
    Or is it totally not possible to copy sample files over?

    Hi
    Logic will not copy over any 3rd party samples etc. If you really need to, you would need to copy the appropriate libraries manually, though with Kontakt, some libraries would need to be re-authorised.

    Cyndi6858, help is here! We'd be happy to help figure this out. Just to be sure though, the Droid Maxx should not have an SD card. Is this the Droid Razr Maxx? How did you add the music to the device? Are you able to see the files and folders located on the SD card or device when plugged in?

  • Pages can´t open files saved in iCloud

    I can´t open any file save to iCloud
    I tried a workaraound:
    I couldn´t open a file save to iCloud from my iPad.
    I opened it from icloud.com and downloaded it to my iMac.
    Opened the downloaded file, and everything semed ok.
    I then closed the dokument and opened the file on my ipad again. Made som editing before I closed the dokument.
    Then I tried to open it again in Pages on my iMac, but couldent open it.
    Translated: Couldn´t open the file ".... ..."
    I also tried to open a file saved to icloud (without opening it on other machines and devises). Pages couldn´t open those files either...
    Can sombody help me?

    Possibly you have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed over 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs.

    is FTP an option for you?
    We experienced the same problem, and to avoid problems with file shares ot mount points (we are running NetWeaver on Unix), we chose to use FTP so transfer files, using the FTP action.

  • Is it possible when saving the psd file to have an automatic jpg file saved at the same time?

    My work involves preparing images for printing lightboxes and window installations.  My clients require to pre-approve the photos before printing.
    I usually save my files as psd but since the files are very large in this format I usually save another copy as a jpg file that has a much smaller file size.  This makes it possible for me to add these to a presentation and and send them to my client.
    Is it possible when saving the psd file to have an automatic jpg file saved at the same time?  Or do I still have to do this manually?

    If you save the document manually as a PSD file in Phtoshop not from within an Action, Script, Plugin or Droplette.  You may be able to write a Photoshop that would do as save as Jpeg,  And you should be able trigger its execution by setting up a Script Save event using the Script event manager.  When You do a manual save  the script should be triggered.  I wrote may be able to for I have never tried to write that script or set up a Script Manager Save event.  I have only use open events.

  • Opening plug in settings, sample files, loops, effects, etc

    What application do I need to use to open the plug in settings, sample files, loops, etc.? Some open with quicktime, however, most all of them are pst files. I am new to this and have no idea what that is. The files are there, they just won't open, even if I change them to open with quicktime. Any help would be appreciated.
    Garage band v1.1.0 (26)   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I've tried opening them from within garageband, no success. I went through finder just to see what type of file they were compared to the ones that would open. the ones that will open open with quicktime and are .aif files. The other ones won't open even if I select quicktime as the application to open them with. I know I sound stupid, but I'm kinda new to the digital recording. Am I missing an application or driver or something? Thanks for responding.

  • Files saved to NFS share by MS word cause finder to loose sync w/filesystem

    I am posting this bug report(#4699323, opened Aug 24th, 2006) I have open with Apple because there is no indication that they have even noticed it. Please reply if you have similar problems, questions, or suggestions. Bug report follows.
    24-Aug-2006 04:17 PM Erik Meitner:
    Summary:
    Files saved to an NFS volume by Microsoft Word dissappear from the Finder. Many times "Ghosted" icons of "Word Work Files" are left behind.
    Steps to Reproduce & Actual Results:
    1. Mount an NFS volume from a server(Mac or Linux, doesn't matter. NFS options do not matter.) from the Finder or command line.
    2. Open a Finder window to the mount point.
    3. Create a word document(test.doc), save to the NFS mount point.
    4. Make sure both the Word window and Finder window are visible.
    5. Type a single letter, Save.
    6. "Word Work File L_200098113"(the number varies.) apears and test.doc dissapears from the folder. Then the icon for "Word Work File L_200098113" goes "ghosted" (test.dc IS still there, just not shown. You can verify this in the shell )
    7. Type a letter, Save.
    8. The work file dissapears and is replaces by "Word Work File L_200098113"
    9. Rinse, Repeat ad infinitum.
    Expected Results:
    File saved & Finder does NOT get out of sync with the filesystem.
    Regression:
    * Only happens on NFS volumes.
    * Only happens with MS Word.
    * It happens on Panther(10.3.9) and Tiger(up to 10.4.7)
    * "Fast saves" in Word has no effect.
    * The user has full access to the root of the NFS volume.(a .TemporaryItems folder IS being created)
    * Verified that problem happens with all Versions of Office 2004 from 11.2.3 to 11.2.6(current).
    * Happens with ALL users: admin, local, and non-local(LDAP authenticated, network homes).
    Notes:
    * The work files(with "ghosted" icons) never show up when listing the folder via the CLI.
    * The original(test.doc) always shows in the CLI.
    * Relaunching the Finder usually causes the "missing" files to show again, but not always.
    * Problem is exacerbated by users losing faith in the system, thus saving very frequently, guaranteeing that the problem will always happen.
    * Only workaround is to have users work on files "off the network" on a local disk.

    Relaunching the Finder will restore the icons to the proper state most of the time. One can also use this application to force a refresh of a folders contents: http://www.brockerhoff.net/nudge/index.html
    I am not sure of the internal workings of "Nudge", but it does seem to be the best hack available to get the Finder to work properly.
    01-Sep-2006 08:48 AM Erik Meitner:
    I should also add that this problem is repeatable on 15 different Macs of different models, all running 10.3.9 with the latest updates.
    11-Sep-2006 12:41 PM Erik Meitner:
    Problem is repeatable on all 6 of our Machines running Tiger(10.4.7) with all the latest updates.
    20-Sep-2006 02:25 PM Erik Meitner:
    The "Nudge" tool mentioned previously does not always work especially for some users who experience this problem the worst. It will only restore the file to a "ghosted" icon that is still inaccessable.
    Moving the file to a different folder and deleting the resource fork file is the only solution in this case.

    OS X 10.4.8 update has not altered the behavior of this bug. The Office 2004 11.30 update seems to have caused the problem to happen less frequently. I would say it now happens half as frequently.

  • PSD files saved in TemporaryItems has disappeared.

    Ahhhhhhhhhh PSD files saved in TemporaryItems has disappeared.
    Hi I was working in Photoshop CS5.1 (OS X 10.7.5) and the original image I started with was saved in TemporaryItems, long story short I spent 4 hours working on an illustration and saving the .psd files\ versions in the same TemporaryItems folder, planning to move all the files tonight. Just came back to it and the files are gone! I may cry pixel tears, desperately running out of swear words.
    If anyone can help I would be so very appreciative.
    Cheers Matt from Melbourne

    Silly question, but, are you sure that's where Photoshop was saving? I've had it happen before where I open a file from folder A, then do a Save As, only to find that (for whatever reason) Photoshop has been saving to some other folder entirely.
    Have you tried Open Recent Files in photoshop to see if maybe they were saved somewhere else?
    Or, try this; go to Photoshop, create a blank document, then immediately Save As and look at where it's pointing. If it is not at the Temporary folder you expect, look there for your files.
    Failing that, have you tried a search on your computer?
    Silly. But I'm trying to cover all the bases.
