  • What files formats does Itunes support

    what files formats does Itunes support???
    Been trying to load some anime into Itunes and they wont play on my Apple Tv, though they play on the computer. Why is that. I've got codes and all that other jazz. What gives....

    iTunes 11 can currently read, write and convert between MP3, AIFF, WAV, MPEG-4, AAC and Apple Lossless (.m4a).
    iTunes can also play any audio files that QuickTime can play (as well as some video formats), including Protected AAC files from the iTunes Store and Audible.com audio books. There is limited support for Vorbis and FLAC enclosed in an Ogg container (files using the Ogg container format are not natively supported) or Speex codecs with the Xiph QuickTime Components. Because tag editing and album art is done within iTunes and not QuickTime, these features will not work with these QuickTime components. As of Snow Leopard, iTunes 9 (Mac) will play HE-AAC / AAC+ internet streams. The latest version of iTunes (Win/Mac) supports importing audio CDs with the default iTunes standard file format of AAC at 256 kbit/s, but users can choose from 16 kbit/s to 320 kbit/s constant bit rates (CBR) in either AAC or MP3.[citation needed] Importing of audio CDs into MP3 or AAC formats can also be accomplished using variable bitrate (VBR) encoding.
    The Windows version of iTunes can automatically transcode DRM-free WMA (including version 9) files to other audio formats, but does not support playback of WMA files and will not transcode DRM protected WMA files. Telestream, Inc. provides free codecs for Mac users of QuickTime to enable playback of unprotected Windows Media files. These codecs are recommended by Microsoft.[34]
    In addition to importing CDs into the iTunes library, the user can also import non-Apple mp3 files from Amazon.com and other sources. This can be accomplished by either right clicking on the file, selecting open with, and then selecting iTunes or dragging the file into the open iTunes window. Alternatively, for Amazon.com mp3s, the Amazon MP3 Downloader application will automatically import the mp3 files into the iTunes library.

  • What file formats can itunes play?

    After looking at hundreds of posts, I got fed up and decided to ask these questions. What file formats does itunes play and how can you change/adjust them? I thought there was a place to do this when I installed itunes, but I haven't been able to find it so far.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the help, but my question is still unanswered, I want to know how to associate different file types with iTunes, maybe I am not asking the question correctly, or don't know the terminology. I know that my real player can be made to associate different file types from the tools menu, I check off the boxes with the different extensions, like, .mp3, wav, midi, .ogg, etc... I thought there was a feature like this on iTunes, but I can't find it, is it only available when I install it?

  • New computer wqith Windows 7 - Does iTunes work with Windows 7

    I downloaded iTunes 9 and tried to upload my 1st CD and it never got passed a few seconds of upload before it froze up. I tried another CD and the same thing happened. So I uninstalled 9 and tried iTunes 8 because I was more familiar with that. The first CD uploaded the 1st song and then froze up. The song played quite well but I couldn't get passed the 1st song. Does iTunes work with Windows 7? TY in advance.

    No it runs just fine on Win 7 64 bit so your problem isn't that.
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and use this : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 to make sure you get all of the old install.
    Make sure you run disk clean up when your done so that there are no temp files around when you try with the fresh install.
    Now, making sure your using the admin account and that you've disabled any security software, try again with the new download

  • Does iTunes work with Windows 8?

    Does anyone know iTunes work with Windows 8? I know 10.7 was just realeased and I wondered if it added Windows 8 support or will I have to wait for iTunes 11?
    Windows 8 is not beta anymore, it is RTM although I know a public release isn't until October.
    I just want to know if people have it working or not.
    Many thanks

    I just installed iTunes 10.7 on windows 8.
    I can confirm the issues with iTunes on the windows 8 release preview still exist.
    Meaning that iTunes does work, but some devices cannot be connected nor synced. This seems to be a driver issue.
    For all I know what does work: iPad 1, iPad 2, New iPad, iPhone 4S.
    What does not work: iPhone 4.
    These I know for sure myself, other devices may or may not work, but I didn't try them myself.

  • Does itunes work with  the new intel core duo processor?

    i want to go buy a new laptop and the one I have in mind has the new intel core duo T2300 or the T2400 processor. Can i still download itunes onto this computer? Does it meet the requirments becuase the download page says you need a pentium or BETTER? The new macs are putting them in their computers, but will the windows and intel duo be able to support the itunes application?

    are you asking if it is compatible meaning will it
    install/run or are you asking if flash is
    optimized to take advantage of this particular setup?

  • What Audio Formats Does iTunes Supports?

    is there a way to find out what formats iTunes supports?
    for example, does iTunes support OptimFROG Loseless or FLAC Loseless?
    thanks.

    iTunes uses Quicktime for audio playback and plays Apple Lossless, WAV, AIFF, MP3 and AAC files. If you want to play other formats, you generally have to convert them to a format iTunes supports (I use Apple Lossless myself). iTunes to FLAC is a group of Applescripts enabling FLAC file conversion in iTunes. For a guide to enabling OGG support in iTunes, see here. Other file conversion tools I use are Max and xAct.

  • Jakarta Commons -- File Upload does not work with Application Server

    Hi ALl,
    I tried Jakarta Commons file upload. In the netbeans, I copied the common jar files "commons-io-1.2.jar" and "commons-fileupload-1.1.1.jar" in the
    netbeans-5.5\enterprise3\apache-tomcat-5.5.17\common\lib and set the class paths. It is working correctly when I compile and run from the netbeans. However, when I deployed in Sun Application Server PE 9.0, I am receiving the following errors. In Sun application I copied the above jars files to "C:\Sun\AppServer\jdk\jre\lib\ext"..
    I have read in several postings that it does not work this way but could find any solution. Any idea will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi All,
    I solved this few minutes after I posted this question. Thought I should share with everybody, just in case some one else need it.
    I copied these three files in the folder C:\Sun\AppServer\jdk\jre\lib\ext
    1. servelet-api.jar
    2. commons-io-1.2.jar
    3. commons-fileupload-1.1.1.jar
    No need to set any class path.
    Thanks

  • I have CS3 Pro and I need to know the file format info to work with Maya 2010.

    I teach high school and use Adobe Premeire Pro CS3 but I can't get it to work with Maya 2010 for anything. AVI won't import, nor will image formats like Targa, Gif, Tiff or any other. When I got the software it said it would interface - Adobe - what's up?

    Hi,
    I use maya 2009 and I think maybe you're just not using maya right...you would want to be using maya LIVE....not the space where you build 3d objects etc.
    In other words, maya LIVE is where you do camera match moves and green screen etc....
    I've had no problem with 2009 maya exporting tif images as a sequence and importing to cs3...
    But its not easy using maya correctly...maybe you can be more specific about what you're experiencing
    ps... maya 2009 is 32 bit and so is cs3.... maybe maya 2010 is 64 bit and you're having trouble with that ??  Beats me...till you give more info...

  • Windows 8.1 File recory does not work with EFS, any solution?

    Hello,
    File recovery does not see my encrypted files, as soon as I decrypt them no problem. Is there a way to have File recovery see my encrypted files and back them up?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The behavior is by design.File History doesn’t protect files encrypted by the encrypted file system (EFS).
    But,files stored on a volume encrypted with BitLocker are protected.

  • What file format does Pages use?

    Allow me to explain:
    I have recently downloaded Scrivener and it tells me that I cannot use the Pages documents which I have started because it doesn't accept the file format and that Pages is peculiar to Apple. I would like to use Scrivener to work on my documents as a research tool and somewhere to organise my stuff. I then want to take the end result to Pages for further reading and editing.
    At the moment I have downloaded Scrivener onto a Macbook Air and Pro. Both are running Pages and Mavericks.

    You have to use the export menu in Pages to create a format that Scrivener can read, like .doc.   Pages can then also read .doc format you export from Scrivener.  But translating between formats often results in unwanted changes, so your proposed work flow could turn out to be messy and impractical.   If you have to work in .doc, probably best to just use Word or OpenOffice.
