Streaming audio into itunes?

Quick question...
Is it possible to stream audio into itunes using the headphone jack on my ibook for the purpose of playing other audio sources (not mp3s/CDs) wirelessly to airport express?
Or, is there any third-party software that has the capability of streaming audio-in through the headphone jack and then out to airport extreme?
Any help would be much appreciated!

rengic, Welcome to the discussion area!
That is not possible. The headphone jack on your iBook is audio OUT only.
To get audio into your iBook, you will need to use a USB audio input device like the iMic.

Dropping out when streaming audio from itunes

Hi
I have just installed an AE. Set it up with latest utility release
(16 December 2010) which updated firmware on AE.
Problem is streaming audio from iTunes from PC running XP
to my stereo it keeps dropping out about every 10.
However streaming audio from my iphone4 is ok no drop out.
Any advice please?
One supplementary the audio quality of music streamed from the
PC seems to be slightly better than from the iPhone. Is this the
Case and if so why?
Thanks

How do I embed streaming audio into a Keynote?

I am having difficulty embedding streaming audio into Keynote. I know how to embed an actual song into it, but since I want to keep the file size small, I would rather embed a song player from one of the many music sites that enable you to do this (Soundcloud). My presentation will have a lot of audio files in it, that's why I want to stream.
Ideally, I'd actually like to embed a YouTube player w/only the player controls (see link below), but I can't figure out how to do that either.* Your help is greatly appreciated, being trying to figure out how to do this for hours now.

Ok I'll be honest, I'm really not following you here. Exactly what is an "annotation"?
It will be a series of MP3's, when I tried copying and pasting the embed code I get an error that reads "Unsupported 3D file format" . Below is the embed code I pasted into Multimedia-->Flash Tool

How do I embed streaming audio into a PDF?

I've seen threads and question on embedding a YouTube video which I can do, but haven't seen anything regarding streaming audio embedding. There are music sites out there that let you embed their song players (Soundcloud for example), how would I go about doing that?
I also wouldn't mind embedding a YT player w/only the player controls as well (see below), but I can't figure out how to do that either. Your help is greatly appreciated, being trying to figure out how to do this for hours now.
FYI, I know how to embed audio, but I would rather stream the audio to keep the file size small.

Can't import audio into itunes 11.2.1

I can no longer import personal audio to itunes 11.2.1. It does nothing when I try. I need the audio so I can import into an imovie I am creating. Any help with this latest version of itunes?

How did you get it solved? I can't see the answer.

Using AirPort Express to stream audio (non-iTunes)

Title says it all - is this possible? Apple's description seems very specific to sending iTunes output to a remote stereo - will the system also work with streaming internet audio?

Out of the box the Airport Express will only stream iTunes output. If you're willing to purchase additional software, Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil will "hijack" audio output from most any program and send it to an Airport Express, Apple TV or another computer on the network using companion Airfoil Speakers software. Available for Mac and Windows, check it out at http://rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/. I have no connection with Rogue Amoeba other than as a satisfied customer.

Recording Streaming Audio Directly into Logic 8?

Is it possible to record streaming audio directly into Logic 8. I would like to grab some sound bites from web sites and various other places and lay them down as Audio tracks in Logic 8.
I know WireTap Pro will do it for $30 but I wonder if I could just do it in Logic.
Again, thank you for your time.

Or you could also use the loopback trick and just plug your interface's outputs >into it's inputs - be careful of your routing to avoid feedback though...
Hi Bee Jay .. I wonder if you would mind advising on this setup:
Normally I hear everything that comes out of the computer via the following route:
Out of computer via Firewire and into Motu828
Then out of Motu 828 and into Mixer channels 1 & 2 which are set to Monitor only. ie I hear all audio ( including streaming audio from computer) through my monitor speakers and the signal does not go back into Logic.
All the other mixer channels (3 - 16) I use for recording. Mics and line inputs routing these back into the MOTU (and then the computer) by buttons on the individual channel of the mixer. ie If the button is up on a particular mixer channel it comes out the speakers and does not record in Logic. If the button is down then that channel records into Logic (via a loom into the MOTU).
I was warned on no account to press the buttons down on channels 1 & 2 ( because those were the main outs to monitor Logic's signal ) ...
But that if I *switched off the channel output in Logic channel strip* - then I could press down those buttons on Channel 1 and 2 and route whatever audio was coming out of the computer ( iTunes, You Tube etc) back into Logic to record.
I did this some time ago and it worked ... but for some reason, now even though I have the Logic Channel outputs switched off, I still get the most horrendous howling feedback if I try to record Streaming Audio or iTunes.
If you or anyone else has advice on what would be causing this, I would be most grateful

Audition 4 for Mac - Recording Streaming Audio

Hello All,
Apologies to all if this subject has been covered already, but couldn't find the answer.
I have just downloaded Audition 4 for Mac (beta), and I'm trying to work out how to record streaming audio off iTunes, Youtube etc, straight into Audition, without picking up anything else in the background?
Thanks in advance!
J986E

audition4 is good for Mac while recording streaming audio, cool it is. But i guess there are free applications for recording streaming audio, for some users. More options can be available for you here: audacity, limewire, streaming music recorder.

Drag and drop FLAC audio into iPod to convert and add?

I manually sort my music as albums in folder directories. I have never liked how iTunes wanted to sort my music back in 2005 and I don't like it any more today.
I recently got a 6th gen iPod Nano via the 1st gen iPod Nano replacement program and I am disappointed in how I cannot use Winamp to manage my playlists anymore. Winamp would automatically transcode incompatible FLAC audio into MP3 before transferring onto my 1st gen Nano.
I have my iPod options under iTunes set to automatically convert higher bitrate audio to 192kbps AAC, but dragging and dropping FLAC audio into my iPod gives an error message that prevents me from adding anything.
I thought maybe I had to import my audio into iTunes' library first, but scanning for media adds every audio file including system and program audio files to my library, which really clutters things up. It treats each artist as an album, so compilation albums of 30 audio tracks from 30 artists appear as 30 individual albums in my iTunes library. Most cumbersome.
I am also appauled in how it did not detect or support playback of FLAC audio. I am not willing to convert my entire library into a proprietary lossless audio format just because iTunes wants me to when other programs and I were getting along so well without iTunes and my 1st gen Nano.
Anyway, what I am hoping to achieve is to find a streamlined way to convert FLAC audio files into MP3 or AAC while I am transferring them to my iPod without having to involve another program to manually convert before adding. This is a huge convenience factor for which I am regretting having my 1st gen Nano replaced. I will admit that I am perhaps being overly stubborn here. Maybe I'll just sell this 6th gen Nano while it's still pristine and get a Sansa Clip or something. Apple products have become too stifling and I won't be surprised if there was no way to achieve what I am asking to do here, so maybe this ends up a being more of a rant than a search for answers.

foobar2000 with the ipod plugin will allow you to drag/drop FLAC files and when it syncs the ipod, it converts the FLAC files on the fly. MUCH better than dealing with the crappy iTunes interface and having to pre-convert the files. I absolutely loathe iTunes and it just gets worse and worse!

How to import WMA files into iTunes to burn to CD?

My coworker gave me a voice recorder that records in WMA files. I cannot simply drag the audio file into iTunes like I have from other recorders. I need to get the audio into iTunes so I can burn to CD. Any ideas?

Problems -
EasyWMA is not free.
Switch looks fine, but after installing the wma plugin as prompted, and feeding it the first batch of .wma files, it crashed.
I'm now 'borrowing' an EasyWMA.
Pros : simple to use. you can have it process your entire music folder at once. adds songs to itunes right away.
Cons : limited functionality! E.g. there's no option for VBR (variable bit rate), so I set it to 256 fixed. E.g. when having it run through my entire music folder, there was no option to restrict it to wma files - it also worked my flac's, for which I'd already found a better solution (fluke).
Sigh Hate to complain, but hey, this stuff would be easier on Windows

How can I record streaming audio???

HP HDX 18T laptop
Windows 7
NCH Wavepad sound editor
Hi, I desperately need help with this issue:
Is there anyway I can turn "OFF" the speakers so sound does not come from them, but STILL have audio levels active internally so I record streaming audio with my NCH software Wavepad program?
I've been trying everything .. in the Control Panel setup, I am trying to "capture" streaming audio with my Wavepad program, but I can only attenuate the "mic" levels that the actual laptop picks up .. for example, if there's background noise in the room, it picks that up - I DON'T WANT THAT! - I only want the streaming audio from a recording - not the background sounds in the room.
Folks at NCH Software keep telling me to check with laptop of Windows advice.
Wavepad used to do this easily and cleanly before (well, on other computers and other Windows versions)
If I go into Windows Mixer, and turn down Speakers, it also forces to turn down System Sounds - I do not want system sounds down; only speakers.
Summary:
I want to record streaming audio into my audio capture software.
I want to independantly cancel laptop speaker output, while maintaining audio levels for streaming capture.
I DO NOT want extraneous sounds in the room's background picked up by the laptop's mic, which then interferes with the recording.
(or is there a Windows program that will do this for me? I spent $$$ on the deluxe Wavepad software ,, but it's not doing what it used to do)
Any help, or advice will be GREEEEEEatly appreciated!!!
Thanks, Michael

Fixed (I think ....?)
Turns out there's no "Stereo Mix" option in my Control Panel sound boxes .. apparantly no one else has it either in Windows 7??? depending on sound card ...
Well, a work-around is to connect a male mini-plug "Y" into [one of] the laptop's headphone outs; then run a mini-plug cord (male-to-male) from it to the laptop mic "in" ... that leaves one unused female mini-plug on the "Y" .. which you can then run your headphones (or speakers ) off of.
Found that solution online .. got the parts; it works now.
Still baffled why there's no "Stereo Mix" in Windows 7 ....?

HT4437 How to stream audio from a Safari web site to Airport Express using Airplay?

I'm able to stream audio from iTunes to my Airport Express using Airplay, but I can't stream audio from SoundCloud.com or any other system audio (not in iTunes) to the Airport Express. It is my understanding that AirFoil can do the trick but I do not want to spend 25$ if there is another way to do it.
Thanks in advance.

I have played around and it's all fixed (not sure what I did and I don't think it was working all along), Tgara, you're right the icon colour has changed to orange for music (but still blue for you tube).

Good you got it sorted!
I was wrong about one thing. Regardless of how I connect (e.g., wifi or Bluetooth), the Airplay icon in an Apple App turns orange when connected to a device, not blue as I mentioned above. This is probably why you see blue in the Youtube app.
OK, I am retracting all my posts about the airplay icon and it's color scheme.
Seems as if the airplay icon on the music app is orange, but the airplay icon on the podcast app is blue. There appears to be no rhyme or reason to these color schemes or their significance, so I am abandoning all further speculation.

What audio format encoded into iTunes HD Movies and TV shows?

What audio format encoded into iTunes HD Movies and TV shows, AC3, 5.1 DolbyDigital? Its been a long long while since I rented an HD movie on ATV since netflix came around with streaming and BD. Now they have rentals and purchases. Anyone know if the purchases play with 5.1 or better audio?

I think if you pull up the movie in the iTunes store it should tell you. For example, I pulled up the Star Trek movie that came out a few months ago, and it reports "Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound". Clearly you need to make sure that your hardware supports whatever sound configuration the movie employs.

Loading DVD movies into iTunes 10.6.3 over OS10.6.8 stream to iPad

Hi,
I am on holidays and want to watch a DVD (No Code of Conduct, always been a Martin Sheen fan) I bought at a Yard Sale. My van is set up to port the iPad audio through the van stereo and has a mounting bracket for the iPad that makes it handy to watch while in the bed. Fortunately, I brought my MacBook along for the DVD player. I want to watch the movie on the iPad while it is playing in the MacBook. I tried to load the DVD into iTunes for Home Sharing , but no luck there.
How do I stream a DVD movie to my iPad from my MacBook?
Ken

Sorry Winston, but I can and have done it.
Not the way I wanted to but it works none the less.
First, convert the DVD to a format usable by iTunes
Second, import the converted movie to iTunes and turn on home sharing for the MacBook AND the iPad, log in both machines
Third, make sure both devices are connected to the same network. I also tried turning on web sharing on the MacBook but for some reason we sharing wouldn't run so I connected to an another available network.
Last, run Video on the iPad, select the movie and badda bing, it works.
NOTE, try this with a better movie next time. Although I like Martin Sheen, not the best choice.
Ken
PS. I'll report back when I get websharing working to see if it runs without an outside network.
PPS. Since the movie was loaded into iTunes it was easy to sync the movie into the iPad for watching without the help of the MacBook.

When I upload audio from itunes into my imovie project, it does not show all of the track?

Hi, I have opened a new project in imovie - I have uploaded 200 photos into the project to make a Comic Book movie!
this project is 7 mins and 8 seconds long - the exact length of the audio track that I want to play during the movie!
I have selected the music by clicking the musical note button in imovie, which open up my itunes library and displays the track I want to use that is 7 mins and 8 seconds long.
When I click and drag my MP3 audio from itunes into my imovie project, i only plays the first 5 mins & 33 seconds; leaving my project in silence for the final 1 min & 3 seconds????
I have not added markers, there are no fade ins or fade outs - only the first 5 min & 33 seconds or a 7 min & 8 seconds MP3 Audio track???
I have spent 10 hours trying to rectify this problem.......
can anyone help me with this problem
Peace, Love & Happiness
