Using other music services (gasp!!)

Unfortunately I-tunes doesn't seem to have all the music I crave, so I've been forced to search elsewhere. I just discovered that Real Audio has music that I-tunes doesn't carry. I just downloaded an album (from the Rolling Stones site). How can I import it into I-tunes? It is not recognized by I-tunes. I know I can burn it, and then import it that way, but that seems silly. Any ideas?
Peter

Peter,
what format are these songs in?
Usually, iTunes will convert .wma files, but if you download them through other music services, the files are protected and iTunes is unable to convert them.
I don't know of any other way to import them other than burning and reimporting.

  • What do I need to do to be able to use other carrier services on my iPhone 1 gen?

    Greetings all,
    I just got an iPhone 1 gen off of eBay. It will be for my wife in Cancun, Mexico but its only an AT&T carrier, and I need to be able to have other carrier services since AT&T is not available there.  How....what steps must I do in order to be able to service the phone through other carriers?
    anyone......thanks!

    They won't unlock it....why would they? I'm tech savvy with android OS but not with Apple.  I know I must unlock it but am not sure how to carrier unlock it without errors.
    *** mind you...it's gonna be used in Mexico...no AT&T service there....

  • Application Services uses other application Services like business Object

    Hallo
    I use the SAP NetWeaver 7.1 SP3.
    One question can i use in the Applcation Service another Application Service (not Business Object)?
    The reasons I want to have this possibility:
    If I use the external service and I will be exposed as a new Applicaiton Service, thus it can be used by several application Services.
    I have put one Application Service A into the dependency of Application Service B... but in code i can not find out the API to lauch to the Application B.
    Thanks and Kind Regards
    Ping

    Thanks
    But I can not find  the Object ApplicationServiceALocal
    and the code
    ApplicationServiceALocal appServiceA = this.getApplicationServiceA();
    I can not get it.
    Maybe I should after the add dependency Generate Application, buîld Application?
    Kind Regards

  • Can we use our ipods with other music services?

    I have not been able to get into the music store for close to 3 weeks now, I have been round and round with these discussion boards and articles and unanswered emails to Apple... I want to leave and go with rhapsody or someone else, BUT can I use my ipod with these sites or does it HAVE to be Itunes??

    a service like itunes is subscripiton based is it not?
    No, the iTunes Music Store is not a subscription. It's a single-time pay; once you buy a track, you own it forever. Subscription sites are ones where you pay every month (or whatever) to listen to the tracks they make available. If you stop paying, you lose access to all the tracks.
    And if you pay for a song, why wouldnt you be able to burn it onto a cd, or do they just let you put it on your pc?
    It depends on the site. Not all allow you to burn audio CDs, even if you pay outright for the track. None of the subscription services allow burning to audio CD.
    And do you mean napster or bearshare sites?
    Napster yes. Bearshare is a Gnutella client which is just another P2P network like Limewire, and similarly consists mostly of pirated tracks, viruses, worms and trojans.
    helful as eveyone has been, none of these solutions has fixed the problem!
    Again, sorry, but as I said, you didn't answer the most important questions. For instance, you said you were using a corporate network, but you never said whether or not you'd addressed the issue with your network administrators, something that Toonz asked you two or three times. If your company's firewall is blocking the addresses and ports needed to connect to the iTMS, there's nothing you nor Apple can do to fix the problem.

  • IOS7 iTunes automatically starting and trumping other music apps

    I'm using an iPhone 5 with Rhapsody 3.5.3 and iOS7.
    I like using iTunes, but I also enjoy using other music apps such as: Rhapsody and Wolfgang's Vault.
    With iOS6 I could use the controls on my external devices to operate the above mentioned apps.  For example with iOS6 I could use the controls my Jam speaker or Bluetooth headphones to skip or go back on a Rhapsody playlist.  Now, with iOS7, when I use the controls on my external devices itunes launches automatically and starts playing. 
    Here an example I encounter every day:
    -  I'll plug my iPhone into the USB/iPod port of my car (2013 Kia with iPod integration)
    -  I'll start a playlist or album on Rhapsody .
    -  The title of the song, artist, and album appear on my radio display.
    -  When I press the, "next button" on my radio a song from iTunes starts.
    In other words, the iTunes app now automatically launches and trumps Rhapsody.
    With iOS6 I was able to control Rhapsody using the controls on my car's radio.
    I would really love to be able to use my radio controls to control Rhapsody again, doing so helps keep me focused on the road because the controls are located on the steering wheel.
    Everytime I try to advance a track on Rhapsody iTunes automatically starts,  it's making me sick, no exaggeration.
    Seriously, I loved Apple until this began occurring.  Is there any way to turn this off?   PLEASE?

    I've continued to research.  As to BMW, the notes to BMW's recent upgrade to the entertainment system say that with iphone a "bug" is that occasionally just starts playing.  I believe this is an apple issue as many posts show similar problem across many cars.  Some are when using hardware and some bluetooth.  I think it's just a problem in how the various auto systems integrate with the phone.  My only cure is to disengage the connectivity of the bluetooth streaming audio on the car's system and reselect it when I want to stream audio. Kind of a pain but at least on the BMW it doesn't disconnected the bluetooth feature of the telephone when I do that. Hopefully this will be cured in future upgrades either to the phone or the software in the car (which is upgradable). But I have the latest version now. Interestingly most people say plays first song. Mine picks up with whatever it was playing before, either song or audio book. 

  • We have 6 ipods and 1 iphone in our house. We have different itunes accounts. We use one computer. How can we share each others music? I moved everybodies itunes media folder to the public folder but when I open itunes I only see that accounts music.

    We have 6 ipods and 1 iphone in our house. We have different itunes accounts. We use one computer. How can we share each others music? I moved everybodies itunes media folder to the public music folder but when I open itunes I only see that accounts music. We need different itunes accounts. We share 1 computer but we have different user accounts on the computer.

    Adding media directly to the media folder does not make it appear in the library.  iTunes doesn't really 'look' at that folder except to go to specific files when you call upon them from a library. You have to drag new content to each user's library, that is assuming each user has their own library.

  • ITunes tells me "Could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  I can locate it and all my other music, but can only open one song at a time.  How do I set it to open all my music whenever I want it?

    I just spent several hours dealing with this when switching to a new PC. It was extremely frustrating as I knew my files were on my external HD but no matter how many times I copied my old iTunes folder over the files were still missing...because dummy me had forgotten to "unhide folders" on my new PC and my old files were actually stored in a hidden folder created long long ago.
    This is how I did it on Windows 7 with iTunes 10
    1. Look in iTunes Advanced Preferences to see where iTunes is saving files. (Edit, Preferences, Advanced)
         Example: C:/Users/Woildbill/My Music/iTunes/Music
    2. Ensure you are able to see hidden files - Control Panel, Folder Option, View, Show Hidden Files
    3. Use Your Computer's Search Function to Locate the Missing File (Start, Search, type name of song - I started my search in "My Music" folder but be sure to expand to entire Computer if not found right away)
    4. In Search Results, right-click found folder and select properties. This will tell you where the file is actually stored.
    5. Use Windows Explorer (right-click start) to navigate to the location of the file. It is likley your other missing files are in the same location.
    6. In Windows Explorer, copy the newly located files to the iTumes location from Step 1 and everything should work again.
    Hope this helps!

  • ITunes Match has stopped uploading - every file errors and says waiting - I have tried to delete the files and use other formats etc.  I have had the service since Day 1 and NEVER had an issue.  It didn't start until the Delete from Cloud switch to Hide

    iTunes Match has stopped uploading - every file errors and says waiting - I have tried to delete the files and use other formats etc.  I have had the service since Day 1 and NEVER had an issue.  It didn't start until the Delete from Cloud switch to Hide from cloud - the files that do not upload show grayed out on my other devices.

    Have you confirmed that you successfull purged iTunes Match by also looking on an iOS device?  If so, keep in mind that Apple's servers may be experiencing a heavy load right now.  They just added about 19 countries to the service and I've read a few accounts this morning that suggests all's not running perfectly right now.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Use other application server to run Oracle generated web services

    Hi all,
    I am currently running an Oracle 9i database and application server (OC4J) and use WebservicesAssembler (JPublisher) to expose PL/SQL packages as web services to an external PDA application.
    Is it possible to run the EAR files (the assembled web service) generated in this way on another type of application server? This question because I need to use Resin in a live environment.
    If this is not possible, would there be a way to work around it? I mean by manually programming the web service against the PL/SQL package. And if so, has anybody tried that out before?
    Are there other alternatives?
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Regards,
    Stijn Lambert

    Hello,
    Which version of OracleAS/Web Service stack are you using?
    If you are using a version prior to 10.1.3 the Web Service stack is proprietary and not portable.
    JAX-RPC used in 10.1.3 is more portable but you have to be very careful about the way you create your deployment descriptor.
    In a general manner you can always create pure JDBC/JPublisher clients and expose them using the Web Service that you want.

  • Can I use I-Web with other hosting service? (ie not .Mac?)

    HI,
    I would like to know if I HAVE to subscribe to .Mac in order to use I-web or can I use my other hosting service to build a snaps website.
    It seems that one is bound to sue .Mac, but was not sure if this is the case.
    Rebecca

    Yes you can. You will need an FTP program. I downloaded one called Cyberduck that seems to do the job. You can drag and drop individual files or several at once to upload. You will need a host for your domain such as 1and1.com. They give you a user name and password you will need to log on to your site. Good luck!
