Transfer and using mp3 files

Hello,
I'm a new user from apple products.
I don't know how I can transfer mp3 files to my iphone. Do you know?
can I use bluetooth? can I use wifi?
I have some mp3 files in my computer but I can't transfer to my iphone.
I need to use itunes? how?
Thanks and merry chrismas

Welcome to the forums.
You need to transfer your music using iTunes -- you plug your phone in and choose "sync" and it will transfer whatever music you tell it to. The best way is to create one or more playlists and choose these to transfer to the phone.
The phone itself can use bluetooth headsets, but you cannot transfer information this way. The phone itself will connect to the web via wi-fi but, once again, does not transfer this way.
Install the latest iTunes (7.5 or greater), attach your phone via the USB adapter provided (with or without the dock) and then sync it. Note: you will also need to first initialize it (nothing in the phone will work without first establishing phone service to whatever carrier you are using).

I converted aif files to mp3 files in I tunes so I could put them on a flash drive. Now when I transfer an album to the flash drive I get both the aif files and the mp3 files in the flash drive. How do I get the iTunes to only copy the smaller file?

My suggestion to use the smart playlist was more along the lines of making one list with rules to show everything in your library as long as it was kind "mpeg" (= mp3).
Smart playlists cannot be edited manually, only by changing the rules. You can use them as the basis for another smart playlist though.
There is added overhead to using smart playlists, so don't go overboard.

Receiver File adapter : two choices "Directly" and "Use Temporarly file" ?

Hi All,
I am writing the file into a folder and I want to write the file completely into the folder.Once the file is placed , one tool will be keep on picking files every second from this folder.So I need to put the file after filling entire data.
In the File adapter, the put file option has two choices "Directly" and "Use Temporarly file".
"Directly" option will serve my purpose?
Which option I need to keep for Empty-Message Handling "Write Empty file" or "Ignore"?
Thanks

Hi Mohamad,
>> You need to place in the some other folder and do the transfer completely and move the file to desired location using command line parameters as recommended in the previous answers.
I will be posting all the files as .txt files. Can we move the file by using command line parameters for FTP connection?
I heard that we can get do it only for NFS and we cannot do for FTP connection.?
Can you please suggest the command line how to use it.
Thanks

How to use mp3 files on a form standard button, instead of wav-files. Need to save space.

I would like to use mp3 files instead of Wav-files on the standard button, in the forms edit menu. I know it is possible in the interactive menu to add buttons with mp3 sound. But those buttons has not the same options and appearance as the forms buttons. We create learning books with lots of sound files in each PDF, so with wav-files the PDF gets quite heavy in Gb.

Smokerz – Thanks for the feedback. I managed to get iTunes to find the movie files on my TC by simply dragging the icons of the files on the TC into the Movies folder in iTunes. This immediately made them available for streaming on my Apple TV. Also, I learned with great relief that, despite their large size, dragging icons of my movie files into iTunes did not copy them to the C: drive on my desktop computer. Thus, it looks as if the job is pretty much done. Thanks again for your advice.

Blackbery Link - browse pc folders and copy mp3 files not in music folder

Hello to all of you
I have music archives in different drives and pendrives
It is not intuhitive at all how to browse local PC drives and or PC folders to select and copy single or many .mp3 files from the PC to the BlackBerry device.
Please don't tell me that the silly solution is to move the mp3 files to the windows music folder.
Additionally, i find really against an user friendly approach the BlackBerry Link in the music section. It doesn't allow to show the mp3 files names and use, manage and browse .mp3 files by their name, I see only
- All the music
- Album
- Artists
- Genres
- Playlists
well,
- I have so many .mp3 files
- they don't have all the mp3 tags
- I see only an unfinished list which doesn't allow me to select the file I need, and I must scroll all of them every time
A TOTAL NO SENSE in my personal opinion
Anyway , from BalckBerry Link and from PC side, how to select one single mp3 file, QUICKLY, and copy it inside the BlackBerry device in the music folder?
Thank you
C0r

Yes CRAZY!!! It is confirmed,
trying to find a solution to this crazy behavior, I've turned to documents side.
I've added my mysic folder to the documents and TA-DAAAH! The .mp3 files don't show!!!
On the right panel a big string says "The folder doesn't contain supported files"!!!
Well, looks like that BlackBerry Link leaks like the OS 10
Anyway, if you can provide a solution that allows to copy mp3 files ID3-less (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ID3), mean that none of the ID3 has been filled, thank you so much in advance.
To BB Link developers, think about allow users to tranfer files as files and not as you arbitrary want, thank you.

Do you have to pay royalty fees to use mp3 files in a Flash game?

I'm looking at developing a Flash game but I am aware there are licensing fees involved with using mp3 files, and we seem to only be able to use mp3 files through Actionscript and Flashpunk. So my question is, will we have to pay any royalty fees, or does Adobe have that covered?

Regarding i-tunes match, a lot of music in my library is burned CDs (mostly imports) some "well most" are not available on i-Tunes U.S. So, if I use this service, I am thinking the majority of my library will not be available to sync on all my devices. Is this a proper assumption.
No. The idea of iTunes Match is that everything in your library is available to sync.
If it does match, the song in iTunes store is used.
If it does not match, the song on your computer is used and that is uploaded to the cloud to sync to yoru devices.
iCloud is not available for Mac OS previous to Lion.
Which Mac/OS do you currently have?

Music and Video on Nas in folders but how do i set up itunes on multiple computers to see and use these files and create libraries?

Music and Video on Nas in folders but how do i set up itunes on multiple computers to see and use these files and create libraries?
So i have had a itunes set up on my old PC, bought a NAS and copied the folders over to the NAS, i did this incorrectly and so then even when i told the old PC to use that folder it saw all the songs but wasnt able to play the songs as it was looking in the incorrect place.
So now i want my Mac as well as my PC and others to all use the music, videos etc on the NAS they are in itunes friendly folders (as they were compiled this way by the itunes on the old PC.
When i tell the mac to use the itunes library.itl file it sees the song list (about 100gb) but cant see any songs, so i have removed this file to another location for now with the hope to set up a new file and then get it to see the songs on the folder from the NAS.
Can someone tell me how to do this for all the Mac's and PC's on my network as i really want one master library that all use and add too.
Thanks for your help in advance.

I have the same question but I am using two pc's

When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

Thanks for the follow up.
Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.
Best wishes,

I have recently transferred data from my old Mac to my new one. The result was good, but I have 2 users now, whose data I want to merge into 1 single user, so to avoid having to switch from one user to the other to view and use certain files. How to do it

I have recently transferred data from my old Mac to my new one. The result was good, but I have 2 users now, whose data I want to merge into 1 single user, so to avoid having to switch from one user to the other to view and use certain files. How to do it?

Here's an easy way:
Pick the user that you want to eliminate (making sure that the remaining user has administrator privileges) and move all of the data that you want to keep into the Shared folder. Reboot or log out and login to the user you want to keep. Copy all the data from the Shared folder into your account - placing it neatly in folders (Documents, Music, Movies, etc.).
Once the data is moved, log into the account you want to delete just once more to make certain that you've grabbed all the data you want to keep. Log out and log back into your admin account and go to System Preferences>Users & Groups and delete the 'old' user.
That should do it.

Downloaded Snow Leopard and now mp3 files won't play or open.. help!

Once I updated my system to Snow Leopard, my downloaded mp3 files won't transfer to iTunes or even play in general, they used to automatically download into my iTunes. Is there a specific setting I need to change?

What happens when you try to play in iTunes? Do you get any error messages? Can you play the mp3s in Quicktime or VLC?
If you want iTunes to play your mp3s, the setting for that is inside iTunes Preferences.
Have you tried repairing permissions and restarting your computer?

Transfer artwork to mp3 file

Hi.
Is it possible to transfer (copy) the artwork directly into the mp3 file instead of keeping the artwork inside the iTunes library?
Thanks

I was trying to solve this problem, too, so I wrote a script that (a) extracts the album artwork from iTunes (placing it in a "album artwork" subdirectory in your Windows temp directory), and then (b) resets the artwork for the selected tracks (and in the process, incorporates the artwork into the mp3 files).
You may download it by right clicking on this link, http://www.robertmryan.com/tech/ResetArtwork.vbs , and selecting to save the file to your local machine. Then, in iTunes, select the tracks for which you want to integrate the artwork into the mp3 file, and then run this program. This VB script is just a text file, so feel free to open up the script in your favorite text editor if you want to see what it's doing.
This works for me, but iTunes scripting is a little flaky, so I don't make any promises. I used it successfully on Windows 7 and iTunes 9.0 and 9.1. I'd suggest trying it with just one or two tracks first and make sure it works, before you run it on all of your tracks. It's also a bit slow: It took about an hour or so with 10,000 tracks on my reasonably fast machine.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Importing and exporting mp3 files

I'm able to import mp3 files into iMovie and edit them but when I want to "share" this edited mp3 by exporting out of iMovie, it makes me save it with an .mov tag. I can't keep it as an mp3. This is a problem for me because when I play .mov files on my web site, it shows an entire black video screen instead of the little audio scroll bar I want with .mp3's. Any advice? Thanks

According to Grant
mp3's must be converted to AIFF format before they can be edited. So iMovie imports and converts the mp3 to AIFF. You then need to go to File>Share and choose Quicktime>Expert Settings and click the Share button. Then in the next dialog box choose Export>Sound to AIFF. Then to convert the file to mp3 import it into iTunes with MP3 set to your importing preference(iTunes>Preferences>Importing>MP3 encoder.
I'm trying to convert a movie into mobile phone format so I can display it on my mobile. My version of iMovie has the mobile 3G format to save to, but seems not to allow mp3 as an option for the audio, so the mobile, which requires mp3 for audio, shows the video and not the audio. Grant's trick above converts the audio OK, but leaves out the video. What can one do? Will upgrading to QuickTime Pro help? Is this another useful thing Apple have not bothered to do, just as they don't bother to include file transfer to mobiles (available for PCs in Mobile Phone Tools) in iSync?
