Track time that is displayed is waaaaay too long!

I have a new problem with some tracks that I got from a friend and that I loaded into iTunes.
As you can see from the screenshot below, iTunes thinks the duration of the song is 56 minutes and 5 seconds, whereas the exact same file, when viewed in QuickTime, clocks in at 6 minutes and 21 seconds.
Quicktime has got it correct and iTunes has not.
Any idea what's going on here, and how I can fix this?
By the way, this is the same for most of the tracks in this list, even though I am just showing the one.

a new problem with some tracks that I got from a friend
I have seem peculiarities like this on tracks with VBR encoding. Possibly something in the mp3 header that is not being interpreted correctly.
iTunes is also listing the track as having a Bit Rate of 32 kbps, which I do not think is correct at all... Although I don't know of any other way to check this
Easily done! Assuming the 12.9MB file size is correct, and that the 6m21s duration is correct, you can divide the two. Convert 6m21s to 381s, 12.9MB to 12900kB, divide them, and then multiply by 8 to convert Bytes to bits. Result: 270 kb/s.
just going by the sound quality of the song, as determined by my ears, it's a much higher quality!
Based on my calc, you are correct! Good lis'nin', Brett.
how I can fix this?
I use the cheap approach. Use iTunes to convert the mp3 file to WAV/AIFF. Move the original mp3 to a safe spot somewhere else on your hard drive, and delete its entry from your library. Then use iTunes to convert the WAV/AIFF back to mp3. Use a nice high bit rate for that step, e.g. 320. No guarantees, but usually this creates a nice clean mp3 that will register properly in iTunes. Pls let us know if this works for you.

  • I just got a new MacBook Pro and when creating the icons on my desktop I realized that if the title is too long it cuts if off and adds dots. For example, instead of the title stating "Graduate School Info" it will say "Gradu...fo". How do I fix it?

    When switching to my new MacBook Pro, it will not let me display the titles of the icons as it has in my other Macbooks. In my new Macbook it will either:
    a) cut off the title and inssert three dots
    For example,
    "Graduate School Info" will become "Gradua..nfo"
    OR
    b) it will cut off the word and put it underneath
    For example,
    "Publications" will become
    "Publicatio
    ns"
    I am not sure how to change the settings so that it can allow more room to display the titles of the icons/folders the way I would like them to be displayed.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    The best you can do is highlite a file on your Desktop. Finder>View>show view options>
    and increase your Grid Size to MAX.

  • Why am I getting a message that says "Page is taking too long to load"? And then it gives me a stripped down version of the page. BUT it always works fine in Safari, AND I have a 15MBPS Internet connection?

    It routinely affects the most frequent sites I visit: odesk.com, batchbook.com, google reader. They aren't bandwidth intensive sites, and as I mentioned I have a really fast internet connection. Sometimes refreshing the page helps. Other times it doesn't and I have to use Safari.

  • Adaware scan that is taking a little too long for comfort

    I have a hidden file ri0nda.default in my documents and settings, that I think is from an addon I downloaded for firefox. I'm currently running an adaware scan on it, it's at 448000 objects scanned and I have a bad feeling that it might be a virus or something along those lines... Am I being paranoid or is this something I should immediately remove from my computer?

    I haven't checked if the regexp classes are checking interrupts flags, but you can always try to call interrupt on the thread which is working.
    That's the only thing which I can think of (except for invoking stop on the thread, and that's deprecated)

  • AirPlay Screen Mirroring (Mavericks) disconnects frequently with "Feedback taking too long to send" message

    My company has several TVs with AppleTVs (3rd generation units) connected in our conference rooms so we can "Screen Mirror" our Mac laptops via AirPlay during meetings. Many employees have complained that AirPlay Screen Mirroring drops frequently during meetings for no apparent reason.
    In attempts to determine the cause of the issue, I removed the AppleTV units from Wi-Fi and hard-wired them all to the LAN (100Mbps/Full duplex, no switchport errors seen on the Cisco switch). I upgraded the AppleTVs to the latest firmware. I had our AppleTV users ensure they were running MacOS Mavericks with the latest software updates installed. I had the Mac laptops hard-wired into the LAN during meetings in the conference rooms. None of these changes resolved the AirPlay issue.
    I reviewed the MacOS "/var/log/system.log" file from the laptops of several users that reported issues. I found a pattern that seemed to indicate that the "coreaudiod" process reported "Feedback taking too long to send" several times before the AppleTV connection was terminated. Also, from a network trace (using "tcpdump") taken during an unexpected AirPlay Screen Mirroring disconnection, I could see that the Mac laptop sent a TCP FIN packet to the AppleTV unit (this would indicate that the MacOS laptop initiated the closing of the AirPlay connection).
    I have included the relevant log file entries below. Please note that the LAN internal to our company is "solid" and there have been no connectivity issues detected or reported during the times the AirPlay sessions were disconnected.
    I believe I have found a workaround to this issue. By going into "System Preferences", "Sound" and then changing the "Output" device BACK to the "Internal Speakers" (rather than the AirPlay destination), the AirPlay Screen Monitoring connection seems to remain stable.
    My questions are:
    - is anyone else experiencing this type of problem? any other solutions recommended?
    - is there a way to change the AirPlay defaults so that Screen Mirroring only sends the video (not audio)?
    - does anyone know what the log file entries indicate (like, what does "Feedback taking too long to send...." mean)?
    - any fix planned for this issue?

    I'm currently still experiencing this as well. I've confirmed it occurs on 10.9.1, 10.9.2, and 10.9.3 on MacBook Pro Retina's, Mid-2012 and 2013 MacBooks. It happens on multiple ATV's not just one, all are updated to 6.1.1 and a simple reboot seems to fix it temporarily but it does come back. All the ATV's are connecting to the network via Wireless not Ethernet. These are 3rd Gen ATV's but I checked the serial number and these do not match the bad batch of Apple TV's from 2013 that were offered up for Replacement for Apple due to the bad firmware update. None of the computers have the Firewall turned on. Here's the two logs that we always find after the issue occurs (logs are recent, happened this morning):
    5/30/14 8:57:36.017 AM coreaudiod[183]: 2014-05-30 08:57:36.016946 AM [AirPlay] ### Feedback taking too long to send (30 seconds, 17 total)
    5/30/14 8:57:36.332 AM coreaudiod[183]: 2014-05-30 08:57:36.331492 AM [AirPlay] ### Feedback failed: -6723/0xFFFFE5BD kCanceledErr
    The user will get disconnected from Airplay anywhere between 30 seconds to 3 minutes after logging on and can reconnect but then once again get disconnected after the same time period. One interesting thing to note is that when the Feedback Taking Too Long to send error starts occuring and the countdown to disconnect start ticking down to 30, its solely referring to Audio not being sent over the network and Video is working just fine. If I try to play sound I get another log and the sound doesn't play through the speakers. After a reboot, sound works fine and the Feedback Error's do not show up. I've also tried switching to Internal Speakers (since it defaultly switches to Airplay Speakers) after connecting to Airplay and seeing the Feedback timer start in the Console Logs but even after that the log continues to saw its taking too long to send and disconnects in 30 seconds. 
    This issue has been ongoing for months, I've got a ticket logged as far back as January with this occuring but its infrequent enough that we've just restarted and moved on. I'd say its an issue that occurs to about 5%-10% of meetings but that's an entire meeting that doesn't have the ability to Airplay until someone comes down and reboots it.
    I don't often post in this forum but its still an active issue with no resolution, proof that its occuring on other people's systems, and no firmware updates having been released to correct it. It'd be nice to know of any workarounds other than having to buy some lamp timers for each conference room just to get a functional ATV or putting up a sign that says hey if you get disconnected every 3 minutes, reboot the ATV. The whole reason we're using Apple products is for ease of use otherwise I'd put together a much cheaper solution myself. Any help or recommended troubleshooting steps would be fantastic at this point.

  • Destination file characters too long (File names) , while copying from one external to another

    I have a external my book fat32 formated and a new mybook ntfs formated external as well.  Now when I copy my files from the fat32 to the ntfs external all files copy fine but some give that destination location file characters are too long, meaning that the file names are too long.  Now I could change the file names but that would conflict with programs that need that file name.  I am using vista ultimate and would like to copy all the files over from the fat32 to ntfs so I can reformat the fat32 to ntfs.  The files got on the ntfs from a simple drag and drop from my IDE NTFS internal hard drive.
    I hope you guys to tell me what to do.
    Thank you :)

    Here's the fix....for error message "your file name is too long to be copied, deleted, renamed, moved" :
    1.   problem is this: the "file name" has a limit on number of characters.....the sum of characters really includes the entire path name; you gotta shorten it first (i.e, if the total number of characters in the file name + Path name are over the
    limit, the error appears).  The deeper your file folder sub levels are, the more this problem will come up, especially when you copy to a subfolder of a subfolder/subfolder of another path ...adds to character limit)
    2.  How do you know which combined file names + path names are too long if  you are in the  middle of a copy operation and this error pops up?  Some files copied but the "long files error message" says "skip" or "cancel" ... but not which
    files are the "too long" ones.  If you hit "skip" or "cancel" the "too long" files are left behind...but are mixed in with non-offender "good" "short name" files.   Sorting thru 1000s of "good" files to find a few "bad" ones manually is impractical.
    3.   Here's how you sort out the "bad" from the "good":
    4.    Let's say you want to copy a folder ..."Football" ...that has five layers of subfolders; each subfolder contains numerous files:
      C:/1 Football / 2 teams/ 3 players/ 4 stats/ 5 injuriessidelineplayerstoolong 
           There are five levels root "1 football" with subfolders  2, 3, 4 and lastly "5 injuries"
    5.    Use "cut" and "paste"  (for example to backup all five levels to a new backup folder):
           select "1 football" ....cut....select target folder....paste 
           ("cut" command means as the files are copied to the target destination, the file is deleted from the source location)
          Hint: avoid "cut" and "paste" to a target folder that is itself a sub/sub/sub folder ...that compounds the "characters over the limit" problem ...because the characters in the sub/sub/sub folder are included in the "file name
    character limit"...instead "paste" to a C:/ root directory.
           Suppose in the middle of this operation...error pops up: "5 files have file names that are too long"  Skip or cancel?
           select "skip"  ...and let operation finish
    6.    Now go back and look at the source location: since the software allows only the "good" "short name" files to be copied (and because you "skipped" the "bad" "Long name" files so they are not copied or deleted) ...all that remains
    in the source location are the "bad" "long name files" (because "good" ones were deleted from the source location after the "cut" operation...the bad ones stick out like a sore thumb.
    7.   You will find ....all that remains in source folders are: the "bad" "too long" files; in this example the "bad" file is in level 5:
          C:/ 1 football / 2 teams /3 players /4 stats /5 injuriessidelineplayerstoolong
    8.   select folder 5 injuriessidelineplayerstoolong (that's right...select folder, not file) gotta rename the folder first.
    9.  hit F2 rename folder..folder name highlighted...delete some of the letters in the folder name:
           like this:   5 injuriessidelineplayers  ....you should delete 'toolong'....from the folder name
    10.  then go into folder 5....and do the same operation ...with the too long file name:
            hit F2 rename file....file name hightlighted...delete some of the letters
               like this:  injuriessidelineplayers.....you should delete 'toolong' from the file name
    11.  Now..."cut and paste"  the renamed file to the target backup folder.  
    The Error message will pop up again if you missed any "bad" files....for example, it will indicate "5 files too long" ....then repeat process 5 times until you fix all of them
    12.     Finally, copy the target destination files back to the source location (when you are certain all source location file folder locations are empty) 

  • Installing Itunes 7.3 - "specified path is too long"

    I am trying to install Itunes 7.3 for Windows on an XP machine and I get error that the "specified path is too long"
    The path given is:
    "C:\Windows\winsxs\x86Microsoft.VC80.CRT_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b8.0.50727. 762x-ww6b128700"
    I have 2 options. Retry and Cancel. So I have to cancel and then it rolls back everything done to that point.
    I was able to get around this, though by creating that directory manually. Then when I hit retry, it gave me another long dir name like above. I created that one as well. And then it did this 3 more times, then it continued on to finish installing. Why did I have to manually create the directories that had these long unusual names?
    Thanks,

  • Project duration too long at only 68 minutes?

    Hi, I can't figure this out.
    I just upgraded from a PowerMac G5 to a MacPro. Just got it running last night so hopefully I'm overlooking a simple step because I'm new to iLife 09, although I've been using iLife and iDVD for quite some time.
    I have an iDVD project that I've been using repeatedly for at least a year or more. It is a DVD porfolio. Duration is about 87 minutes and no problems on the G5/iLife 08.
    Now with the upgraded computer and software, it keeps telling me that the project duration is too long for a single layer disc. I've taken the content down to 65 minutes! Quality is set to Best Performance.
    Am I missing something else? This same exact project was fine on the old computer.
    Thank you very much, time is of the essence for this one unfortunately.
    Eric

    Beverly is correct, and for future reference, what Best Performance does is encode while you work to make the whole process faster, but as a result the DVD must be shorter because iDVD doesn't know how much to compress the DVD before it completed. High Quality and Professional Quality both wait until you're ready to burn to begin encoding. High Quality takes less time, but the quality is poorer the closer to 120 minutes the DVD is. Professional Quality takes longer, but it encodes in a higher quality for fuller DVDs. (Below the quality setting in Project Info, the colored bar shows you where the quality begins to degrade for each setting and where you are on that bar.)

  • HT5191 (Windows 7/64bit) iTunes Taking too long to Backup.

    Hi guys/gurus/"i" masters,
    Got a MAJOR issue with itunes. I don't know why this happens on windows but this is one issue i can't solve.
    I'm on an iPhone 4s running ios 5.0.1. I want to backup all my stuff before I bring to the latest firmware (5.1.1)
    I've had to force close the program many times as the backup was taking too long, and it didn't even move a bit (backup bar).
    Can anyone please help me to resolve this issue.
    Appreciate the help very much.
    Regards,
    TJB!

    Start by making sure you have the latest version of iTunes.
    If that doesn't do it, you may be seeing something like what is described in this Apple article -> Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    If it's what you're seeing, you can try resetting Winsock as a temporary fix or folllow along with the article.
    1. To do so, please do the following in an administrator user:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: Right click All Programs and choose Accessories > Command Prompt. Choose to open as an administrator.
    Windows XP: Click Start > Run and type in cmd.
    2. Enter the following command: 
    netsh winsock reset
    3. Restart the computer and test the issue.
    Note:  If the issue returns, third-party software may be reinserting the LSP.

  • Exclamation mark says text too long...but it's not

    My captions are 2 lines long, and they fit in the caption box. But I get an exclamation mark anyway -- the text warning that means (I think) "text too long."
    When I print the book on my color printer, all the text appears just fine.
    So here's question 1: If I try to send a book with text warnings, will Apple reject the file until I have made the warnings go away?
    And question 2: If the captions print just fine on my printer, are they likely to print just fine at Apple?
    Many thanks!

    When you order the book, a PDF will be created. That PDF is what gets uploaded to Apple (via Kodak) for printing. So the best way to check your book before ordering is to create a PDF, then inspect it. Chances are, what you see in your PDF is what you will get printed.
    To do this, select your book and do File > Print. You'll get an "Assembling book" progress bar. That can take several minutes. When done, you get the Print Dialog box. Click the PDF button and choose "Save as PDF..." Choose a name and location for the file (the Desktop is convenient) and Save. Then switch to the Finder and open that PDF in Preview.
    While I have not observed (or even tried to observe) for myself, I have read here from others that the PDF created this way may differ slightly from the one created by selecting Preview in the first Print dialog, and that it will more closely predict the final ordered book.
    My captions are 2 lines long, and they fit in the caption box. But I get an exclamation mark anyway -- the text warning that means (I think) "text too long."
    I have that warning on one of my text boxes, too. It looks fine in iPhoto, fine in the PDF, and printed fine when I ordered the book from Apple.
    Regards.

  • Compler error "integer no too long"  when there is no integer

    My compiler complains that the interger value is too long.
    i want to generate a 12 digit random pin numbers. i have this code that wont compile.
    {private void generate()
          Long pinNumber=0;
          int no=100;
          for(int counter=0;counter<no;counter++)
              pinNumber=Math.round(Math.random()*1000000000000);;
    }}

    pinNumber=Math.round(Math.random()*1000000000000);;The largest valid integer is 2147483647. You'll need to use longs, which means suffixing long constants with "L".
    Also, multiplying Math.random() by a large number isn't a good idea, since it returns an int double. In addition, are PINs that begin with 0 okay?

  • Query taking way too long

    Hello,
    Can somebody please help.
    I am wanting to change this query so that it does not take too long. How can I do it please?
    select count(*), t.tel_no, t.prospect_id, a.ACCOUNT_NO, a.account_title
    from tel_nos t, account a
    where t.tel_type = 'S'
    AND t.prospect_id = a.prospect_id
    AND SYSDATE BETWEEN t.start_date AND NVL(t.end_date, SYSDATE)
    group by t.tel_no, t.prospect_id, a.ACCOUNT_NO, a.account_title
    having count(*) > 1
    Thanks in advance.

    Tuning is a science not a parlour guessing game. It's hard for us to diagnose the problem you have here as you have given us almost no information. For instance, are you using rule based or cost based optimizer? How big are these two tables? What indexes do they have? What percentage of rows are you expecting the query to return?
    Tuning is such a big area that it's hard to know where to begin. I suggest you start at the Oracle docs. Chapters 1, 4 and 5 will set you going.

    Having said all that you may well find this runs faster:
    SELECT count(*), t.tel_no, t.prospect_id, a.account_no, a.account_title
    FROM   account a, tel_nos t
    WHERE  t.tel_type = 'S'
    AND    sysdate BETWEEN t.start_date AND nvl(t.end_date, sysdate)
    AND    t.prospect_id = a.prospect_id
    GROUP  BY t.tel_no, t.prospect_id, a.account_no, a.account_title
    HAVING count(*) > 1
    /I leave it to you to work out why (it's nothing to do with clearer layout).
    Cheers, APC

  • Nawk message input record too long

    I am running a shell script which uses nawk.
    I am processing a huge input file.
    I get a message that an input record is too long.
    What am I supposed to do to indicate to nawk the max record line length ?
    My e-mail is [email protected]
    Any info will be appreciated

    The 6144 limit can be verified with:
    % perl -e 'print "A"x6145, "\n"' | nawk '{ print length($0); }'
    nawk: input record `AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...' too long
    source line number 1
    (it works, when you change the perl print statment to
    6144 x "A").
    Quick solution could be to use gawk instead of nawk
    (/opt/sfw/bin/gawk, if you have the Solaris 8 companion
    CD installed).

  • Just bought Photoshop Elements 13...I'm trying to make a slideshow but can't figure out how to alter duration time that the slide is on the screen.  They presently move from one to another way too quickly...also need a different pan and zoom option.  Wher

    Just bought Photoshop Elements 13...I'm trying to make a slideshow but can't figure out how to alter duration time that the slide is on the screen.  They presently move from one to another way too quickly...also need a different pan and zoom option.  Where are all the options I had in PS10?  Also...Can I burn this to a DVD?

    The changes have brought improvements but also drawbacks compared with the old slideshow editor.
    The templates are now fairly fixed but I find the “Classic Dark” gives reasonable results with some panning and you can click the audio button and browse you PC for any track. Unfortunately there are only three speed choices linked to the music track. The improvement for most people is that you can now export to your hard drive at 720p or 1080p and upload to sites like YouTube and Vimeo.
