Unable to import Garageband tracks

Whilst attempting to put some tracks from the iTunes library onto my ipod shuffle, I was unable to drag and drop any of my own, Garageband, tracks into the shuffle. All of the other tracks went in no problem. I do not have this issue with my ipod. Any ideas why this is happening?

If your garageband files are still in the uncompressed, AIFF formats, then they will not copy or play on the iPod shuffle. You can go to the Advanced menu in iTunes and convert the songs to mp3/AAC format, then you should be able to use them on the shuffle just fine.

    So, i've done this before, but i can't get it to go into itunes now for some reason! Please help if you know anything i coud be doing wrong. I did delete the playlist that it normally goes into in itunes accidentally, how do I get it back?

    Is there a message that comes up when you try to export to itunes? Is there anything specific that is suggesting that it didn't work? Be sure to search itunes first.

  • Is there a way to import several tracks at once from my Boss BR8 so that they show up as separate tracks in GarageBand?

    Is there a way to import several tracks at once from my Boss BR8 so that they show up as separate tracks in GarageBand?

    I had to google your device - looks like it's a vintage multi-track recorder that records to Zip disks. So I guess there's no digital USB or Firewire multichannel output and no way to transfer your tracks digitally - or is there? If not, your only option is to record the device's audio track by track into GB.

  • Unable to drag imported CD tracks to a playlist.

    All of a sudden I am unable to track imported CD tracks to a playlist in iTunes On my Mac Pro.  This is the first time I've had this problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    You can only sync/manually manage with one computer at a time.
    You need to sync the iphone to the new computer ( erasing the current content from the iphone) and replacing content with the new computer.
    Make sure you copy everything from the backup copy of your old computer to the new one.

  • How to Import Garageband projects and files into Cubase for Windows?

    Hi
    I've recently started using Garageband to record my ideas and compositions. I had 2 main questions:
    1. How do I transfer the audio files created in Garageband in a format which will allow me to edit them in Music Software for a Windows based Operating system? Tranferring them to iTunes and then converting them to MP3 doesn't help because then my friends can't edit my guitar parts and other backing tracks.
    Mainly I need to know how to save and import Garageband projects and individual tracks into Cubase/ Cakewalk for Windows so that my band guys can edit the tracks and send me their ideas.
    I'm the only one out of my friends who has an Apple Macbook and most of my band guys still use Windows based Operating systems.
    2. I record my guitars and other instruments using the Digitech GNX4 guitar effects processor as the sound source through USB. While I can record clean guitar without any problem, the moment I switch on the distortions on the GNX 4, there is a loud and constant hum from the speakers. I am therefore not being able to record distorted guitar sounds.
    Please help on this.
    Thanks and hope to hear from you all.
    Cheers
    Prash

    Tranferring them to iTunes and then converting them to MP3
    same as the protools procedure:

    there is a loud and constant hum from the speakers.
    Could be a ground loop problem. Test it using the MacBook on battery power only.

  • GarageBand tracks poor in iTunes, iMovie

    Hello,
    I've had some issues in transferring GarageBand tracks into iMovie.
    Here is my method:
    1. Share the track with iTunes
    2. Import the track into iMovie from iTunes
    In this process, the sound quality of the GarageBand track diminishes greatly, with various sounds muffled and generally off similarly in both iTunes AND iMovie...
    Is this method the best way to move tracks from GarageBand to iMovie?
    Is there a preference somewhere that I need to tweak to maintain the quality of the GarageBand track?
    Thanks!!!

    I answered my own question.  It's a protected ACC audio file.  I'll have to burn it to a CD and then re-import it to remove the protection.

  • I am unable to import pictures from my iphone to my computer.  Can anyone help?

    I am unable to import pics. 

    It sounds like you are using an application to import. You can do it manually.
    Start > Computer (on the right) > scroll to the bottom and you will see your iPhone under Portable Devices > Open it and you will see a Drive, open that and there will be a DCIM folder. That is where your photos will be (There may be other folders each holding photos).

  • Unable to import video frompanasonic VDR-D105 DVD video camera to imovie HD

    Trying to import my video from my dvd camera but imovie can not find camera. When I connect the firewire the camera locates DVD player software and allows me to play it on my computer, but not able to import to imovie. DVD Player allows my to clip my video but does not allow me to transfer of save it on my computer.
    If I'm unable to import, Is there a work around to get my video in imovie, say quicktime?
    I am using imovie HD 6.0.3.

    Hi S
    1. DVD-Cameras are for playback - not to be edited from.
    iMovie, FinalCut Express and Pro works with miniDV tape Cameras
    This course DVD and hard disk Cameras compact info to medium BUT in
    a destructive way. You can't get full quality back to be edited.
    miniDV also compacts to tape BUT Non-destructive = full quality to Mac.
    2. Does Your Camera really have FireWire. Most probably You are using
    the USB-cable that was delivered with Your Camera. FW is buy extra.
    Best solution - though sour. Change Camera
    If this isn't an option You'll have to back convert to streaming DV that iMovie
    and FCE/P understands.
    - Converting programs like may be:
    MPEG Streamclip converts from mpeg-1 to whatever you like (within reason).
    QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component
    or
    via analog out on Camera via an A/D-box to FW to Mac.
    Non is a good way though.

  • Unable to import movie files from iphoto '08 into imovie HD

    I have recently bought a 2008 macbook (2.2 GHz) and have recently downloaded imovie HD in addition to owning iLife '08 due to its extra capabilities. I have found that I am unable to import any of my movie files from my iphoto library folder as it seems to need to open the actual iphoto application before the files can be accessed. In addition, when not using any specific program it would be nice to be able to access my photo/video files within the iphoto folder without iphoto automatically opening as the default viewer.
    Any ideas??!! Thanks.

    .. and I import AVI video clips directly without converting to .dv, without problems.
    lucky you.. .avi is just a container, no 'format'/codec .. I can show you dozends of .avis, which will NOT import into iMHD6, due to being playback-codecs, not convertable by the underlying Quicktime engine into separte, editable audio+video streams ..
    .. If you convert to .dv, the size just blows up.
    dv is 13GB/h and a codec meant for editing; e.g. it stores every frame (video=30 frams/sec) of a recording, as mpegs usually doesn't do so.. = your Mac has to estimate content, when converting and 'recovering' the content = lossy process.
    iMHD6 is a dv-editor; the mpeg4 feature is only a toy, to spice up iSight recordings.. for sure, the QTengine can convert a lot, but too much conversion (from one lossy codec, e.g. divx, into another, e.g. mp4) means a (dramatic) loss of pic quality..
    my 5€ cents ..

  • I am unable to import new photos in iPhoto 11. Perhaps I should just reinstall from iLife disk? Will it affect my photos in any way?

    Hello,
    I have iPhoto 11 installed on my MacBook. I am now unable to import new photos using USB or by plugging the camera directly into the laptop. Never had that probem before with this camera. Perhaps just reinstall iPhoto from the iLife disk?

    Hello Terence,
    Okay I will try reformating the camera's card. However all is well when I export photos to my iMac at home or onto my iPad.
    If your suggestion does not work should I try reinstalling iPhoto from the iLife disk? If so, how do I go about doing that or is there a website somewhere explaining this?

  • Unable to import M3U file. Unknown error -50

    Hey guys,
    I am unable to import an M3U playlist into iTunes. Getting the following error message:
    The file "File.M3U" cannot be imported. An unknown error occurred (-50).
    Have any of you seen it and know a way to fix it?
    Thanks in advance.

    Any chance that the Playlist you are importing has some 'special characters'? They are usually fine within the playlist, but the title of the playlist cannot contain them.
    Just a thought....

  • Unable to import table or columns in OBIEE 11G RPD

    Hi All,
    We are unable to import table into the RPD using OCI 10G/11G to import the table then the import box open but we are unable to see the tables below the schema name. When we use ODBC 3.5 and created a DSN for the database then we are able to see all the tables and import them. But the problem here is that when we are using window server 7 64 bit to install client and then importing the table ODBC is not working fine as well.
    Please note that we are using OBIEE 11G which is installed on unix box and we connect to RPD using client installed on windows server.
    Appreciate all the help in advance.
    Thanks,
