Using popular music in podcasts

Does anyone know about using popular music in podcasts like if I wanted to use a Peter Gabriel song in an intro.??
I am not a big fan of production music as most of it tends to be touch and go as far as the cheezy factor..does anyone know how to go about using copyrighted music in general?

Legally, you cannot use music copyrighted by others unless you: 1) Pay for its use; or 2) Use it within the category of Fair Use.
Get a copy of GarageBand, and mix your sound files or go here for info on using music licensed under Creative Commons: http://creativecommons.org/audio/

  • I'm unable to play music or podcasts using the iphone4 speakers.

    I tried all the things that I read on other threads isuggested as well and I still cannot get the volume buttons to work when I try to play music or podcasts. I read a post on another site where someone suggested the phone is "stuck" or confused and is in Doc mode. For example, I am trying to play music right now and my phone thinks it's playing and the source selected is "Doc Connector" (my other option is Apple TV). I know there is not a problem with the speakers or the buttons themselves because I can play a voice memo using the phone speakers and the volume buttons work.  Thanks.

    if both itunes on the computer and on the phone dont show any then apple must not be offering that service in your country

  • I used to be able to play music and podcasts in a single playlist (with iTunes DJ), but now can't seem to do this.  Is there a way around this with iTunes 11?

    You are freaken genius!  Apple should update their instructions on how to give playlists, because the old way no longer works.  And people tend to give gifts around this time of year.  Anyway, mahalo niu loa (thank you very much)!

    Not really sur easy you would be having that problem.  Mine works.  You might try RESET DEVICE
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost). Then try again and see if it makes a difference

  • Question about lead in music for podcasting.

    Question about lead in music for podcasting.
    I listen to many other podcasts and there are those which play lead in music with bit of music inside their podcast. The music are songs we all know and enjoy. I have notice that they only play short small clips of these songs and are not royalty free songs.
    My Question would be is there a limit of time which you can play any song with out paying for it and use it in a podcast legally.
    Thanks Mike

    Legally you cannot use copyright music without written permission or a licence from a recognized authority, no matter how short the clip. Many people do this and get away with it (and for full tracks too) and it's debatable how much notice anyone is likely to take, or whether they would be bothered about a short clip. But the legal position is, it's not legal.

  • My iphone 4s deleted all of my books, music, and podcasts from my phone and now will not allow me to put them back on there.

    As stated in the title, I was redownloading old purchases. After transferring a tv show onto my iphone it would not allow me to transfer another one. I wasn't able to locate the show on my phone, so then I checked my music. All of my music and podcasts were missing. My books were showing up at first, but then as soon as I closed out of one that I was reading and clicked on a different one they all vanished as well. I tried dragging on a song, a book, a show, and I kept getting the circle with the line through it. I have no idea what to do. My phone has always been set up to manually manage music and videos. When I selected to sync all music it still wouldn't do anything.
    I've also recently, within the past 4 hours, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes because it kept crashing when I was trying to download my old purchases. I've done it before and haven't had any issues with it deleting anything before. I'm in the process of restoring my phone in the hopes that this will work, but I don't know if it will.
    Anyone out there that can help me?

    iPhone 3G is Old technology. When it was launched it had iOS 2.0. Currently, the highest it can go is iOS 4.2.1 and therefore can not handle many newer applications. As you have recorded, it is giving good service for which it has been designed.
    Needless to say, if you want to use applications as stated, you must have at least 3GS, whose current is iOS 6.1.2. On the lighter side; Rather than updating iOS they are asking you to update iPhone (Technology). Cheers

  • Can't put music into Podcast

    Ok. I'm new to this. Probably NOT doing something right.
    I'm creating a podcast and want to use a music bed. When I try to drag/drop an MP3 from iTunes into a new track, I get the message that the music file is being installed, but it doesn't show up on the track... or anywhere else in Garageband.
    What am I doing wrong?!
    Thanks

  • Podcasts in Itunes appear under Music Genre Podcasts

    Does anyone know how to get podcasts downloaded/subscribed to using iTunes to appear on their iPod under PODCASTS instead of appearing under Music > Genre > Podcasts ?
    Thanks

    They should appear in both places. Do you have a "Podcasts" entry under "Music" on the iPod? If not, make sure your synching options include Podcast updating in iTunes ("iPod Options" while the iPod is visible to iTunes).

  • N97 Firmware 2.1 Music Player - Podcast listing

    I just updated to 2.1, and within the music player - podcasts, i have lost, Never Played, recently heard, all podcasts and now only have listing by podcast name.   liked the prior features, anyone know if this is a bug or "upgrade"?
    thanks

    I had the same problem with my N97 after fw upgrade and was about to chuck it out the window for good before I found this RE:defective music library:
    http://sjc-nokia5800.blogspot.com/
    Here's what I did: (same resetting method modified for N97 fw 2.0)
    1) Connect your phone to your computer in Mass Storage mode
    2) Browse to the following folders and delete ONLY the files inside, NOT THE FOLDERS:
    Private/101ffc31, Private/101ffca9 and Private/10281e17
    3) Unmount/Disconnect the phone
    4) Go to Music Library and N97 should show a "Corrupt Music Library" message and start fixing it automatically.
    5) A few minutes later (depending on the size of your music library) it will show "#### New Songs Added" and everything should be back to normal.
    Hope this is useful to someone.
    My personal 2 cents: I think it's a compatibility bug in music catalog files between fw 1.x and 2.0, and strongly believe Nokia must clean up its act on its symbian flagship.

  • Can I use theme music from iPhoto '09 slideshows in iMovie '09?

    The Music and Sound Effects browser in iMovie'09 allows me to access sound effects files from iLife and iMovie, as well as music and podcasts from GarageBand and iTunes, but not any of the "Theme Music" available for use with iPhoto slideshows (such as "Linus and Lucy"). Is this possible? If so, how?

  • Music and podcasts keep erasing themselves on Iphone 4s

    This is driving me nuts. I've had the phone for a year now and it only just started doing this in the last week. Everytime I go to listen to something on my phone its all gone! When I plug it into the computer it shows that the music and podcasts should be loaded to it but they simply are not. I used to have it on wireless sync and I thought maybe that was the problem but I've since turned it off and am still having the issue.
    Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?

    Try deselecting Sync Music under the Music tab and deselect Sync Podcasts under the Podcasts tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync. This should remove all music and podcasts from the iPhone.
    Follow this by reselecting Sync Music and Sync Podcasts checking your selections below for being transferred to the iPhone followed by a sync.

  • Music and Podcast cannot be synched, but Apps can

    Hi.
    My iPhone 4 is running the latest iOS. And I am running iTunes 10.7 on my Mac OS X.
    I can sync Apps like Whatsapp and Skype.
    But I couldn't get my Music and Podcast synced...
    Can anyone point out a solution? Life without podcast is difficult.

    The images folder just displays download click to download videos.
    I even tried the tips and tricks section which asked me to connect the phone as a USB and check for errors, but that did not work for my problem. I still don't see the images and sound files.
    I can only see them when i connect to the PC and use the Nokia Phone Browser.
    The firmware version i have installed is V 4.0726.2.0.1, updated on 26-06-2007.
    Any suggestions will help.

  • Proper use of the term "Podcast"

    A media company recently started advertising that they "Podcast" recent shows. In reality, they offer a program that listeners can down load and install. From there, the software allows you to access, listen to and save mp3 files to one's hardrive. From there, they can be imported to iTunes.
    Their files are not accessible directly from iTunes in the Podcast section of the Music Store.
    Is this a proper and legal use of the term "Podcast"?

    As I understand it, a podcast is something that is automatically fetched from the Internet and added to your portable audio player, most often via RSS to iTunes to iPod. The term "podcast" existed before Apple built the feature right into iTunes, so despite the fact that the name refers to iPods, the term isn't limited podcasts listed in the iTunes Music Store.
    In this specific case, I think you're correct in your assumption. Since it doesn't sound like the new episodes are fetched automatically nor are they automatically synched with a portable audio player, I don't think the term "podcast" should be used. However, people misuse computer terms all the time, even big media companies, so I wouldn't get too upset about it.

  • Can I use nano5 to browse podcast in a coverflow mode

    I can use nano 5 to browse music in a coverflow mode,but I find that I can not use nano5 to browse podcast in a coverflow mode.I can only browse podcast in a list mode.can anybody tell me why.Thx.

    Hi,
    If you ave no application server or central insance running on your DB server you have 2 options.
    1. install a gateway on your DB server so you can start remote commands on it.
    2. Use rsh to connect via the os from your app server to your DB server.
    This is what you see in the log in this line
    No application server found on database host - rshGateway will be used
    I would also recommend installing the gateway on your DB server. Using rsh is insecure. This can be replaced by ssh but setting up an ssh server is also not an easy job if you want to set it up so that it works securely.

    Good luck setting it up and let us know how it went.

  • Move Itunes, Music and Podcast to a new PC

    I want to move ITunes software, Music and Podcast from a Windows XP to a Windows 7 PC and keep the Podcast and Music?  I don't want the IPod Shuffle to be resync.  It wants to clear the Podcast and Music that's on the IPod Shuffle.

    This document describes some methods.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    The most precise and efficient method is the one named External drive.  If you are proficient in networking Windows computers, you can use the same method and transfer the files over a network connection, instead of using an external drive.  NOTE:  Depending on network speed, using an external drive may still be faster.
    Although there are many steps in the document, I'll summarize how it works.
    There is a folder called iTunes in your computer's user data Music folder.  By default, they are located here (for Windows)
    Win XP - \Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Win 7 - \Users\[your username]\My Music\iTunes\
    If you are using the standard (default) iTunes settings, that is good, because ALL of your iTunes data is in that iTunes folder.  You are copying that complete iTunes folder to an external drive.
    On the new computer, after you install iTunes and run it at least once, it also has an iTunes folder.  From the external drive, (with iTunes NOT running) you are replacing that new iTunes folder with the existing iTunes folder from your old PC.  The next time you run iTunes on your new PC, it uses the iTunes folder from your old PC and iTunes should look like it did on your old PC, with all the content.  Since it's the same iTunes library, the iPod should not need a "resync."
    When you read the long detailed procedure in the document, you can keep my summary in mind so that you "see the big picture."  If you are not using the default iTunes settings, the document covers what to do.  You can post back with any specific questions.
