Which DVD to iPod Method (for windows) has the highest quality?

Hi everyone! This is the first thread I have started! *pats himself on back*...
...O.K. down to buisness...
Does anyone know or tested which dvd to ipod conversion method is best? I have looked at most of the threads here about the conversion methods, and I was wondering which had the highest quality picture, quickest conversion time, and taks up the least memory. Feel free to post your opinions, but I feel tested responces are more helpful. Thx for your time...

'dvd decrypter' is phenominal. all it essentially does is takes the '.vob. file off the dvd. it takes up alot of space, but the quality is perfect. somewhere on videora.com there is a link... its free too. as for a converter, ive tryed most of them, and totally preferred videora, onyl because it converts any type of file.

When bouncing- what's best method for smallest file size/highest quality?

I am in the process of embedding 3 mp3's into a PDF to submit as a portfolio. The PDF also has text, and two scores included, and with the 3 embedded mp3's it can't be more than 10mb.
So my question is: When bouncing a project out of Logic, what is the best method for getting the smallest file size, but retaining the best audio quality? And once it's out of Logic and it is an mp3 or other type of audio file, is there a best format for compressing it further, and still maintaining the relative quality?
I bounced out the three projects into wav's. Now I am using Switch for Mac to compress them down to smaller Mp3's. I basically need them to be about 3 mb each. Two of the recordings sound OK at that size, but they are just MIDI(one project is piano and string quartet, the other is just piano- all software instruments. The recording that combines MIDI and Audio and has more tracks (three audio tracks and 10 Midi/software instrument tracks)and sounds completely horrible if I get it under 5 mb as an mp3. The problem is that I need all three to equal around 9mb, but still sound good enough to submit as a portfolio for consideration into a Master's program.
If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. Please be detailed in your response, because I am new to logic and I really need the step by step.
Thank you...

The highest bitrate that falls within your limits. You'll have to calculate how big your MP3's can be, then choose the bitrate that keeps the size within your limit. The formula is simple: bitrate is the number of kilobits per second, so a 46 second stereo file at 96 kbps would be 96 x 46 = 4416 kbits / 8* = 552 kBytes or 0.552 MB. (*8 bits = 1 Byte)
So if you know the length of your tracks you can calculate what bitrate you need to keep it within 10 MB total.
I consider 128 kbps the lowest bearable bitrate for popsongs and other modern drumkit based music. Deterioration of sound quality is often directly related to the quality of the initial mix and the type of instruments used in it. Piano(-like) tones tend to sound watery pretty quickly at lower bitrates, as do crash and ride cymbals. But don't take my word for it, try it out.
And once it's out of Logic and it is an mp3 or other type of audio file, is there a best format for compressing it further, and still maintaining the relative quality?
You can only ZIP the whole thing after that, but that is just for transport. You'll have to unzip it again to use it. And no, you cannot compress an MP3 any further and still play it.
I bounced out the three projects into wav's. Now I am using Switch for Mac to compress them down to smaller Mp3's.
That is silly, you could have done that in Logic, which has one of the best MP3 encoders built in. And how good encoders are will especially come out at bitrates around or below 128, which you might be looking at.
I basically need them to be about 3 mb each.
So, one more scrap of info we need here: how long are those three pieces, exactly? I'll calculate the bitrate for you - but please bounce 'm directly out of Logic as MP3's. They will very probably sound better than your WAV-conversions made with Switch.

Length of the piece? And does the .Wav bounce you have sound OK?

Ipod access for windows

Hi everyone
I recently had a error screen on my ipod 5th generation and it asked me to restore to the factory settings which i did.
Since my library had been transfered back to my computer using Ipod Access for Windows program (i had to format my computer at one time) well now i am getting nothing but errors messages when i want to transfer back all my songs.
Here is the Error message: Attempting to copy to the disk "Jewels IPOD" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to.
Is there any way to by pass the songs that there is an error to them, so that i can stop crabbing about deleting them and restarting the process
thank you so much JEWELS

See if this troubleshooting article helps.
Disk cannot be read from or written to error syncing iPod in iTunes.

"Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature & will not ...

I am trying to update my iTunes on my PC and I keep getting this message after I click the button to install the update...
"Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature and will not install
Anyone has a solution for this??? Any help would be greatly appreciated...oh and by the way, my iPod is not connected when I am trying to update.
Thanks

Okay. Rather than using Apple Software Update, let's try updating your iTunes using an installer downloaded from the following location:
Latest iTunes Installer
Does the install using the iTunesSetup.exe from there go through any better? If not, what error message do you get from that?

"Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature.

Hi. Iam trying to update from iTunes 7.3.2.6 to iTunes 7.6.2 but always get this message: "Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed. Can anybody help me wth this?

always get this message: "Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
There is a problem on some XP machines where Apple Software Update for Windows version 2.0.0.21 will always return an invalid signature message when trying to update to ASU 2.1.0.110. Since it tries to do that prior to updating other software, the update of the other software is blocked. (To check what version of ASU you have, launch ASU by going "Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update", and then in ASU go "Help > About Apple Software Update".)
The way around that issue (if that's what you've got) is to update itunes using the link to the iTunes installer that Jefe gave you in his/her post. That iTunes installer will also update your ASU to at least ASU version 2.0.2.92 which should then be able to successfully update itself to ASU 2.1.0.110 next time you run ASU.

I went to the "genius" bar today and did a Restore on a MAC at the store but it still does not work. Archive & Install may be my only option. Post back if you are able to fix yours.

I have a 30 gb ipod formatted for windows I would like to reformat for a macbook

I have a 30 GB ipod formatted for windows How can it be reformatted to work with my macbook?

This process will delete all songs in your iPod. (Sorry if I sound like some outcountry Helpdesk)
But you can transfer Windows iTunes library to your Macbook.
1. Connect to your Macbook, close iTunes if it opened up.
2. Open up Disk Utility, select Checksum CRC
3. Select your iPod icon.
4. Click on Erase tab
5. Select Mac OS X Journal format
6. Press Erase button and wait for about 20 minutes
When it finishes, Itunes will launch and prompt for Restore, so just follow the prompts.
Have a nice day!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
iPod Utility for Windows hasn't been updated for a long time, so it's probably not supported in Windows 8. Have you tried to run it in compatibility mode?

Hi,
I would suggest you check with any other colleague if they are able to run the same or not. Running BEx report depends hugely on the front end capacity and performance. Please check if anyone else can run the same report, with the same front end RAM, then it might be the problem with your installation.
Also you can try with the latest patch for GUI s/w.

I bought a scanner Fujitsu (model sv600) in which is delivered a CD of installation of Acrobat 11 for Windows. The problem is that I possess an iMac. How can it be done?

This page ScanSnap SV600 : Fujitsu Global shows that Acrobat is for Windows, not for Mac. There is no trade-up option so far as I know. Indeed, Acrobat Standard does not exist for Mac at all, only Acrobat Pro. Which you could buy.
Or, you can invest in Parallels Desktop which will allow you to run Windows apps on your Mac.

Since upgrading (FF29.0-Windows 8.0), only the active tab on any given Firefox window has the website name;other tabs have no name,only site logo. How do I fix?

I recently upgraded to Firefox 29.0 (running Windows 8.0). Since upgrading, only the active tab on any given Firefox window has the site name. All other inactive tabs generally have a site logo on the left side of the tab, but none of the other tabs have the website name. If I push Alt + Tab to cycle through the windows, the website name will then show up on each tab, but once I select a window to work in the website names disappear from the tabs again, except for the active tab. Is this a feature of the upgrade? Is there a setting to have the site names appear? I would really like to have the ability to see what site is on each tab without selecting.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>

I got a new e-mail address and I reset my iPod so it already has the new email address. I can't seem to change the address on my iPad or iPhone. Please help me change the address on all my devices!

I got a new email address and I reset the iPod so it already has the new address. I can't seem to change the address on my iPhone5 or iPad. So please help! How do I change the address for my apple ID and icloud on all my devices? I don't want to reset my iPad and phone just to set new email address I can't do updates without the password and I have forgotten my password for my old email address. Please Help! Getting frustarted!

If the old ID ("email address") is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
