Stereo image reversed when importing non-cd aiffs

I am having a problem nobody in apple discussions seems to have had, nor is it in any article i've come across. The problem is simple. When I import an aiff file from my hard drive (ripped from vinyl using Audio Companion) into Itunes 6.0.4, the stereo image is reversed. Left is right and right is left. I confirmed this with another file. This is true if the file is left as an aiff in Itunes or is converted to an AAC. When a file is imported from a music cd this does not happen. Any thoughts?
ps when i import these files into itunes, they are imported as aiffs even though my import preferences are set to convert files into AAC's.

Thanks for tip about import preferences being specific to importing from cds. However, my main concern is why my left and right channels are being reversed when I move a non-cd aiff into Itunes. Even after I convert that aiff into aac format the reversal sticks. Something unintended by the designers of this program is happening to these files simply by virtue of placing them in Itunes, and it is quite serious. I do not want to import hundreds of tracks from vinyl with such a problem.

  • Poor image quality when importing SWF

    I maintain a site for a photographer and as he added more
    images the SWF got to be very large, so I split up the site and
    used a main page to import the smaller SWF files into a target.
    However, I found that all my clean crisp images become dull when
    imported but still look sharp in the SWF itself. I tied to find all
    the JPEG settings and push them up but still with no luck. Does
    anybody have any insight to why this is happening?

    Hello micsaint111111111111,
    The reason they look more blurry than in the original swf is
    that you are
    dealing with dual compression from the original swf AND the
    swf you are loading
    the images into.
    The easiest/best way to import your jpgs would be using
    LoadMovie to load
    the actual jpg files. That keeps all the jpgs separate so
    your swf file will
    be tiny. Plus the quality will be the same as the original
    jpg.
    That said- have you gone into your swfs and changed the
    default image quality
    on each of the images to 90 or 100? You do that in your
    library by right-clicking
    on the actual images and then going to Properties and
    unchecking "Use document
    default quality". That is one issue that a lot of people seem
    to miss and
    it might help if you don't want to recode your Flash with the
    LoadMovie method.

  • Bad image quality when importing from word

    When importing from MS Word 2003 to RH X5.0.2, embedded
    images are converted to jpg whith an obviously quite moderate
    compression qulity. This is particularly evident for screenshots.
    Is there a way to improve the image quality?

    Peter , these images were copied and pasted directly in to
    the Word-document (using the Print Screen button) but I did find
    out something. RoboHelp generates two image files of the types PNG
    and JPG for each Word image (named, e.g., image102.png and
    image103.jpg). Regretably, the lesser quality JPG is always
    referenced in the topics instead of the much better PNG. Sometimes
    the two images greately differ in size (pixel size), but most of
    the time they are about the same size.
    So the task might be to change the references in all topics
    using a script and then manually checking the images for their
    size.
    An observation: Any GIF images in the Word file (i.e., real
    *.gif files that were inserted over the Insert menue) remain GIF
    files after the import, they are not converted and maintain a good
    quality.

  • Error in image path when import them

    Hi,
    I have problem when I try import imagen inside Edge stage. Then I need close the file and re-open to fix the image paths.
    I note that Edge create a image folder to save the image inside the Library.
    Do I am doing anything wrong trying drag/drop image inside the stage? Is there any tips to fix this issue?
    Regards

    It looks like you have a space in your path.  I have had trouble in the past with image files with spaces in the filenames.

  • Clearcut image. distortion when importing into Aperture3

    I clear cut an image in PS then pasted it into a new transparent file. Reduced the image to 600 pixels high. Saved with "web and devices" with png-24 and transparency ticked. The preview looks perfect (see example). Hit save. Go to A3 and use the import button to bring the image back into my library. However, the image has some weird things happening in the background (see example). I use this procedure all the time, putting the clipped image onto a white background but this is the first I tried a transparent one. I've tried the same process with different images but the same thing happens. Also, the same thing happens when I import the file saved as a psd. I would really appreciate any help in solving this. Thanks, bj

    Thanks c.p. The prognosis doesn't look good! Is there a way to export the image out of PS. Through MiniBridge perhaps? "Why am I trying to achieve this?" The Company I shoot wine bottles for has asked for an additional image with a transparent background for Web use (As mentioned I have previously always clearcut onto a white background). It is a major account so important for me to deliver the image. As it seems to be an A3 issue I'll post the question on Apple Discussions and see what comes up. b.j.

  • Image problems when importing modified Iphoto pictures to aperture 3

    I seem to have a bit of strange problem with modified pictures after they are imported in A3.
    I am using Iphoto 8.1.1 and have just bought Aperture 3. I decided to import all my iphoto pictures using the import iphoto library function.
    I noticed that all images that had (in iphoto) been edited using the retouch function to reduce blemishes have problems in Aperture. The problem appears to be where the brush was used is now pixilated in that area and it just looks like a cluster of "noise". This only seems to happen when I used the import iphoto library. I tried to replicate the issue importing some of the same pictures individually and there was no issue. Than I made a new library tried to import iphoto library and same issue ones again. Exporting the picture out of aperture keeps this error. It's quite a worry as I have several hundred of these pictures and I am not sure what to do. Any suggestions?
    Please have a look at the links below for an example of before and after import.
    http://files.me.com/dan_801/rlebic (the original file)
    http://files.me.com/dan_801/s0zn6d (after importing into A3)

    ok quick update - I opened up the aperture library in finder and located the image. The master appears to be the correct image but in Aperture itself it's showing a different image. The picture in Aperture appears to be pointing to the preview directory within the library structure. I tried re building the review and thumb and same issue again. When I export from aperture it also seems to export the preview version as oppose to the master. How do i fix this issue

  • Why does color of image change when imported to Photoshop

    When I import or edit my Lightroom image into Photoshop the color tones of the image change to a darker tone.
    I'm using the same screen.
    What can I do to correct this?

    Thanks for both responses .
    I tried changing the export settings but still get a different color image rom the one I get in Lightroom.
    Also, the monitor was recently callbrated, so could the answer be in PHOTOSHOP's color management settings?
    When I checked PS's Color Settings window the " Working Spaces" setting was at  "sRGB"...
    and
    Color Management Policies @ "Preserve Embedded Profiles
    My first export from LR was also @ sRGB.
    Any thoughts on some common settings that might put this right?
    Thanks again.

  • Vector Image raterizes when importing/placing

    Good Day
    I have literally started using InDesign today.
    Now when I Import/Place a vector file (logo) into the page, it rasterizes. Why is it not keeping the vector properties such that it will never rasterize?
    Thank you

    What format is the vector logo that you think is being rasterized by InDesign? What makes you think it is being rasterized? What do you see in Acrobat if you export PDF?
    Note that if you place non-editable content into InDesign, what you see on-screen depends on the settings you have for such content which by default is not for the highest quality.

  • Still image size when importing to Premiere Pro CS3

    I was wondering if someone could help me.  I do a lot of Still Image Slide shows with music and all that jazz and I used to use Premiere 6.5.  When I would import the still images I could just lock the aspect ratio and it would automatically size the picture to fit the screen.  I recently upgraded to CS3 and when I try to import a photo it imports it at actual image size so if the pic to too big it just looks zoomed in.  I'm wonder if there is a setting in I can adjust so it autosizes the pic like it did in version 6.5?  It may sound lazy but I do these with a lot of picture and I don't have time to adjust the size of each photo in Photoshop prior to import.
    I have figured out a temporary workaround where I import the files into 6.5 and then open the existing project in CS3 but my new computer runs Vista and it's not allowing me to install 6.5 on it.  I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks.

    I copied this from the help.

  • "unsupported image file" when importing RAW images from Olympus E-PL1

    When I try to import images save in RAW format on the camera, the images import but they can't be displayed (all I get is a warning triangle with the words "unsupported image format" below it, though in the import preview the images are displayed properly.
    EDIT: just noticed that the E-PL1 isn't listed as being supported, just the E-P1 & 2
    Message was edited by: drathquark

    Apple have just included RAW support for the Olympus E-PL1 with the Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 3.3 - iPhoto can now import RAW files from the E-PL1.

  • No images shown when importing images from external HD

    This only happened recently so I'm not sure if this was due to an update in Aperture or MacOS.
    Anyways, when I try to import images from an external HD, I cannot see the images. The images are there when I check thru Finder but I cannot see any from the import window in Aperture.
    The problem is also inconsistent. There are folders where I can see images but for most I cannot see anything.
    For local disk it works.
    Why does this happen and how can I solve this? thanks

    Are you sure they aren't in your library already? Have you tried de-selecting "don't import duplicates" and see if that changes anything?

  • Why does my image change when imported into Mac Captivate?

    The image is a png and originally part of a Captivate 6 template created in Windows. When I import the image into Mac OS X Captivate 6 the quality literally changes before my eyes.
    Can anyone tell me why this is happening? and how I can correct it?
    Thank you!

    If that's the only place you used that unique font, yes.  Convert the textbox to an image file by applying a drop shadow to the font and setting the opacity of the drop shadow to 5%.

  • Image resizes when imported or placed into InDesign

    I'm having a problem with placing images into Indesign. The problem is random but sometimes when I place an image or drag it from my library into indesign the scale changes. It should place at 100% both horizontally and vertically but not always. when I check the size it may be slightly off either way. These images could be tiff, jpg, or eps files. Is this something that can be fixed with an update?

    Are you saying the image comes in scaled unevenly, or that it comes in at something besides 100%?
    Are there updates for your version that you haven't installed? Since you haven't told us what you are currently using, it's hard to know. The ONLY update I wouldn't unequivocally tell you to install in the 6.0.6 update for CS4. Before installing that you should read the documentation about how it might affect existing files with placed .ai art, and decide if this would be a problem, or a least a greater problem than anything that the patch is designed to fix.

  • Images broken when imported from iPhone

    This is how most of my iPhone images were imported in iPhoto. Any clue how to fix this? Thanks!

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • How do you increase image quality when importing from Illustrator?

    I have a logo that I created in Adobe Illustrator that I'm trying to place in Muse.  Every time that I do so, it's very low quality, fuzzy and pixelated.  After doing some reading around the discussion board, I tried resizing the image in both Illustrator and Photoshop so that I wouldn't have to do so in Muse.  That didn't help at all.  I also tried adding 1% transparency, which also did no good.  I know it's a high resolution image, so I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing wrong. 
    Thoughts?

    Is there a solid white rectangle behind the logo in AI? If not, please try again after putting a 100% opaque white rectangle behind it.
    When smoothing the edges of content (anti-aliasing), the options are limited if the background color is not specified (transparent). If the background colors are known and 100% opaque, then much higher quality anti-aliasing can be achieved.
    PNG preserves transparency. JPEG is opaque. When going to JPEG I would have expected AI to have performed high quality anti-aliasing, but perhaps that isn't the case. If you open the PNG and/or JPEG output from AI in Photoshop does it look pixelated there?
