Visual wave files in the play bar

How do I bring back the visual wave files in the play bar? They've disappeared since the last upgrade.

On my 8 year old iTunes there's a little triangle on the left you click to change displays. Have you tried clicking around on things there?

How can I accurately move the play bar back exactly to where I need to re-listen to?

I'm not sure if this an OS, app, software or hardware question, and couldn't find a better place to post. Hope it's OK. Apologies if not.
When i need to re-listen or re-watch a few seconds on an online school lecture using Safari or a song in iTunes to lean a part on my guitar, the play bar always moves much farther back past where & what I want to hear again - forcing me to watch or listen to unwanted material waiting until the play bar gets back to the part I want. This extra time really adds up!.
Is it possible to move the play bar back (or forward) to the exact place I want?
If the file is on my computer, I open it in recording/editing software, which allows pinpoint accuracy. If the file is online only, I record it to my computer so I can open in my recording app. All needlessly time consuming.
But i cant do this on my iPad or iPhone and a finger on a touch screen trying to move a play bar is much worse than using a mouse or trackpad on a computer.
Can I move the play bar back or forward to exactly where I need it when using simple playback type software (like maybe using the arrow keys) with the same or close to placement accuracy of a recording/editing program?
Thx!

Ah.. yes I see now.
Yes I have my eye glued on the time but the slider doesn't work in sync with what I want.
Meaning. lets say I'm listening to a lecture audio and miss the last sentence, I hit pause at 1:14, and assume I need to review 5 seconds back and want to go to 1:09. I move the slider and it goes from 1:14 to 1:00. And I can't seem to get a smooth second by second relation going with the slider. Just jumps of time.
I can get back to 1:14 and when I try again it goes back to 1:00 which feels like there is a preconfigured minimum block of time that you can go back or move forward.
So what happens is I have to listen from 1:00. So instead of 5 seconds, with the time fidgetting with the slider, I've spent a bit of time. Multiply this over the course (no pun) of a 1.5 hr lecture and the time I spend with the lecture can easily double much of it wasted time, either trying to pinpoint the spot I want, or relistening to material that precedes the point in the track I want.
the only way I've gotten around this is to use a sound editor for audio tracks which has a fluid relationship between the slider and time so I can move back in time second by second.
I am at a loss for why the standard playback apps like QuickTime and Preview are so "clunky" and choppie and why they don't allow for a second by second review, that should be both slider and arrow key initiated.
I don't think I made my point clear at first. Is this better?
Thanks,
Steven

Wav files won't play in Firefox 22

Wav files won't play in Firefox 22. Previous versions of Firefox are fine. Other sound is fine. I have the latest mac OS X. Quicktime is set to play wav files. I have the latest version of it.
Is there a fix for this?
Is there any other plugins I can install which will play the wav files?

Thank you for your response Alice.
I checked about:plugins and I DO have audio/wav and audio/x-wav. It it QuickTime 7.7.1 I have.
In Firefox Preferences Applications Panel I do not seem to have the iTunes.Document audio/x-wav there, only the audio/wav and Waveform Audio.
Re the New Email Notification feature with my Webmail, this is not activated via a Firefox extension. I don't really know how it works but when I'm logged into my Webmail email account and a new email arrives, a wav sound is played to alert me of the new email. This has always happened with all previous versions of Firefox, just not since I updated to Firefox 22 but when I go back to Firefox 21, it works again.
I have previously asked about this with my Webmail company. They knew nothing of this problem. I have now asked them for a second time now that I know that it is only THEIR wav sound that won't play. Other wav files play OK with Firefox 22.
I do not know what is at fault - Firefox 22, QuickTime or the Webmail site but for the past few days I have frequently switched between Firefox 22 and Firefox 21. Each time the New Email Notification wav sound works with Firefox 21 and doesn't with Firefox 22 so that makes me suspect that somehow Firefox 22 is at fault.
But it is a mystery and I might be stuck with it - unless it disappears as mysteriously as it arrived with a newer version of Firefox or maybe even a newer version of Quicktime.
Thank you to everybody who has tried to help me.

The problem i am having is when i go to open a file from the menu bar that as "FILE" is blackcolor

the problem i am having is when i go to open a file from the menu bar that as "FILE" is all black in color and i cant see what i'm picking how do i change that so i can see what i'm picking

Is that Photoshop? Depending on the version you could try to change the Color Theme (Edit | Preferences | General | Appearance).
If that does not help, you may have a better chance to get a useful answer if you ask in the Photoshop or Photoshop Elements forum.

Since 10.0.1 dropping wave files in the arranger leads to a empty region.

Logic X 10.0.0. had no problems with the directly dropping .wav files from the finder in the arrangement area.
since upgrade to 10.0.1 this leads to a event with just a bit noise in it.
When I import it via the menu function, the same process leads to a functional event with the wave file.
Am I the only one?

Hmmm... I can't reproduce the issue you have... Works normal here with LPX 10.0.1

Can't find Home Sharing from 'File' on the menu bar as suggest by Apply Support. Help?

I am trying to set up Home Sharing. Have followed instructions to the menu bar, "edit' drop down however do not see the 'Home Sharing' option as noted in Apple Support. I am a relatively new to the "Mac" family and would like to know if I am doing something incorrect. Thanks.

Hi TCL67,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you do not see Home Sharing under Edit or File on the Menu bar. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

What is the unknown symbol which covers "file" in the menu bar?

What is the unidentifiable symbol (icon?) in the upper left hand corner that covers "File" in the Menu Bar?

Can you post a screenshot of the symbol?

How to play a wave file through the DAQ board?

Hi there,
we want to play a wave file that is saved on the harddrive via the DAQ board. Means we want to connect a amp to the analog output of the DAQ to amplify the sound and play it through a speaker.
We couldn't find any VI that does that. Can anybody tell us how to play a wave file, or perhaps even send us a VI that can do that?
Thanks a lot for your help
Martin - Physical Optics Corporation

Hi Martin,
The only example that I could find on how to do this was using our
older Traditional DAQ drivers version 6.9.3. If you're using Traditional
DAQ drivers, the vi can be found here.
The example reads a 8-bit mono .wav file (an example .wav file is included in the .zip file) and writes it to the analog out of your DAQ card. I've updated the
example to work with our newer DAQmx drivers and attached it here.
I hope this helps,
Paul C.

Play WAV files into the .jar

Hello,
I'm doing small application Java with Netbeans.
I need is to play .wav file sounds are incorporated into the jar.
I do not want to use external libraries or external sound files, etc.. I want to go with my .JAR to the office, home, etc ... just need the JAR to hear the sounds.
I've created a folder "Sounds" in "src" and in that place I have my sounds. (Project / src / sounds). It's a way to incorporate a JAR file, or am I wrong?? Run independently of the sound files.
At the time of reproducing the sound I do the following:
Clip sonido = AudioSystem.getClip();
File f = new File(getClass().getResource(/Sonidos/alarma.wav).toURI());
sonido.open(AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(f));
sonido.start();
If I run the program with netbeans, I play sounds, but which only transfer my .JAR to another computer, does not play ...
Any ideas?
Thank's.

I don't understand, before I had done as you have written me, but did not work, but now it works.
Problem solved. Thank's.
Posting the code here:
InputStream path = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/Sonidos/alarma.wav");
try
sonido = AudioSystem.getClip();
sonido.open(AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(path));
sonido.start();
}catch(Exception fail)
System.out.println(fail);

How to return Firefox to playing .wav files without the vlc plug-in?

Win XP, Firefox 33.11. In an html document are links to PCM, 16 bit .wav files and
other links to .mp3 files. Opening the document with Firefox and clicking on an .mp3 link
plays in the `native' Firefox player OK. However clicking on a .wav link seemed to fail to
play. Using Tool/Options/Applications, wav files were associated with VLC. Now clicking
on a .wav link plays OK in a Firefox screen displaying the vlc logo.
However, later the following was found this under the Firefox help information
"Firefox can play the WAV container format (.wav, .wave file types) containing uncompressed
audio in PCM at 8 or 16 bits per sample".
It seems the .wav files should play with the `native' Firefox player.
How can the link to vlc be removed. Removing the plug-in is not a solution as it is used
for many other file types.

Firefox will only use the HTML5 media player when the AUDIO tag is used.
If EMBED or OBJECT is used then Firefox will always use a plugin.

Emailed voicemails with .wav files no longer play

My office has a VoIP system that I have set up so it sends me an email (Gmail not Outlook) with the voice mail message attached as a .wav file. On Sunday my Droid Razr M stopped working and Verizon made me do a hard reset to restore factory settings. Since then I can't open the voice mail messages. When I try to play the message I get this error message: "Info No app can open this attachment for viewing."
What got reset/removed during the factory reset and how can I restore the ability to play voice mails?

its the updates to google play music causing the problem
go to settings > apps > all and remove updates to google play music and it will start working

Cannot hear imported wav files in the output

Hi, I am using Macromedia Captivate. Version 1.01.1447
I have imported a wav file and when I am playing the slide containing the audio file everything is fine, in particular I hear my audio file. However, when going to the preview of the entire slideshow (or just 5 slides), or if I preview the show in the browser, I do not hear anything. Also, when exporting the movie as a standalone file, I don't hear anything.
Does anyone know a solution for this issue?
Thanks!

If you can get to the instrument editor, drag and drop your regions or files onto the keyboard and answer the following questions. To preview it have an EXS24 loaded up with EXS Instrument #5678 (or whichever number it happens to be.

Unable to see/use the play bar in Captivate

Hello,
I'm happy to join you on this forum, as I have tried to find
(and did :)) answers for some of the problems I have experienced
when learning how to use the Adobe tools.
The latest issue I've encountered was when trying to view a
Captivate presentation.
It was already published on the Connect server and it could
be perfectly viewed on my computer.
However, an user I have sent the URL to tells me that he
could see and use no play bar (!!!)
Therefore, the actions like pause, go back and forth etc.
were no longer available for him.
What do you think?
Is there something missing from the PC system that could not
allow the good "reading" of my Captivate movie or....?
Thank you very much for your answer and help!
Regards,
Oana

Hi Oana
This would seem to indicate that possibly the link provided
to your other person was perhaps pointing to the main movie .SWF
file and not the HTML file. Can you check to ensure where the link
was pointing?
With Captivate 2, at the basic level of output, you should
see four files:
* One is a .SWF containing your main movie. Perhaps named
MainMovie.SWF
* One is a .SWF containing the playback controls for the
skin. Perhaps named MainMovie_skin.SWF
* One is a JavaScript file named standard.js
* One is an HTML file that you should point your user to.
Perhaps named MainMovie.HTM
Those typical four files (and sometimes more) should all
exist on the server where everyone links to watch the movie. The
fact the main part of the movie is being viewed by your user
indicates that everything they need is installed and working
properly on their PC. It seems to indicate there are possible files
missing from the server. Not from the aspect of server
functionality, but from the aspect of what you need to make sure
ends up there so the Captivate movie can play and find all the
components.
Cheers... Rick

My incoming mail user .wav file doesn't play for incoming mails. It does work on local test.

I have windows 7 Professional PC and use Mozilla Thunderbird 24.4.0 as my email account. I have a local .wav music file for incoming mail which tests OK, but when a new mail arrives it doesn't play. I have all the boxes ticked in the settings. Can anyone help please?

An update on local .wav sound file for incoming TB mail messages.
Driver Booster found outdated drivers and all have been updated.
Sound device has been removed from the device manager and automatically re-installed.
From advice given I have turned mail.imap.use_status_for_biff to "false".
Still no sound from my local .wav file. Is my problem unique? Is 2.74 MB too large as a sound file?

Help with wav file, stop and play buttons

Hey everyone,
I'm new to actionscript, and flash for that matter. I created
a new flash file, and a new layer. On that layer I put 2 buttons,
btnPlay and btnStop.
I found some code on this forum, and tried it, but it isn't
working. The code is below. I get no errors, but when I test the
movie, it doesn't play any music. I selected this layer, selected
frame 1, and put this code in the actions window.
mySound = new Sound();
btnPlay.onRelease = function () {
mySound.attachSound("adagio");
mySound.start(0);
btnStop.onRelease = function() {
mySound.stop("adagio");
I should also note, I have another layer with a movie clip on
it, and another layer with a picture on it.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Jesse

As another note--I right clicked on the wav file in my
library and selected linkage and export to first frame as well as
export for actionscript (and named the linkage "adagio"). Might
help with a solution.
