Why is new version of garage band distorting my old tracks

I have updated my MacBook Pro to Garage Band 10.0. Now I'm trying to upload my songs created in the older version. When I playback my older songs many of these are now coming out all distorted with what sounds like electrical interference and it isn't coming from any particular track. None of my newly created recordings are a problem. Any ideas why this may be happening?

Have you checked, if any effects have been added to the Master Track?
Select "Show Master Track" from the Tracks menu, show the Smart Controls, select the Master Track.
Click the button to check for added audio unit. Check the Smart control Output area for effects, like "Compressor", that might distort the signal.
Also check the Preference setting.
You may want to toggle "Auto Normalize" in the "Advanced" preferences on and off, and also experiment with the "Global Echo and reverb" setting in the "Audio" preferences.

Why this new version of iTunes doesn't have Album Art or It didn't show up?

Why this new version of iTunes doesn't have Album Art or It didn't show up?
Also, in my iPod Touch 4th, it erase all album art from my iPod, then i tried to put again a new Album Art, ...download again from the image sites and still ...it didn't show up.? What a waste!
I waste all my time to set all album art on my iPod, then it just gone. kindly pls fix this issue. hate this new version of iTunes, so complicated.
The first thing i saw after i install new version of iTunes, it showed only music files. I don't know where to look for the old version of Sidebar. I keep on trying to look for it where I can see or any sign off button just to show up this stupid SideBar. Also, why i couldn't find? The "Menu Bar" is also hide!
Until i found out in "View" tab. Then i saw the Show Sidebar. Question? why do you need to hide that Side Bar? For what?. it is so so so complicated specially to those people who can't relate for this. (Also the button (from previous iTunes) to show the Album Art, now it's gone. I check every Tab, but there's no way to see the Album Art.)
Another comment. I download also some of my songs to my iPod, I wasted my time to collect all of my favorite music files. Also some are came from CD's and friends. I had all that favorite music in my iPod. Then the version iOS 5.+ came then I updated my iPod, another options to save files (iCloud) but I think there are something that I MISS about updating my iPod. Then suddenly I checked my iPod... all music (with Album Arts) are gone. All Apps are Gone. Videos as well.
If you don't know how to use that iCloud (with only 5GB storage), you'll gonna miss/lost everything.
Then I start all over again, i still have my BACK UP, good to have that. Now it's all set until I update the latest iOS 6. And another version of iTunes.
Then I realized my computer getting slow. I uninstalled it. My laptop started to work fast again. Then I download again the iTunes. So now I know, it has the ability to slow my computer. Everytime I turn on my iTunes, it hang. (Not Responding). Solution... CTRL+ALT+DELETE. Then every second time to open the iTunes, and it works. (it means, to open iTunes, need twice)
Then suddenly my laptop is not working. All my files has been corrupted. My Hard drive doesn't work properly. Now I don't have any stupid BACK UPs. My music files usage is 18 GB, only contacts, documents, notes, or some other files that can only fit to your "iCloud" not my 18GB music files and other photos. Your solution is to BUY more storage. Another COST! Another wasting time to set everything then need to pay more?
If you let your unit (iPod,iPhone,iPad) to export music to PC, or any mini SDcard to use as storage, it won't happen.
There is another....
It has Bluetooth, right?
Use less! Doesn't work. There's no way to use it.
All I need is to install an application to use your bluetooth. (for same unit or Apple unit only). And pictures only can send via Bluetooth if you an application.
Even if you go to "Photos" check if there's a way to send pictures? there is no way to send via Bluetooth, even Photos, Songs.etc. It can't even share some other friends (even they have own iPad, iPod, iPhone or same products) who has a unit with Bluetooth.
And the last.. only one port. there's no way to watch videos through HDMI. No HDMI port, no SD or any card slot. Must to buy their products.
Very costly!
I know (like iPod) it's very friendly to use it, but you must spend more money first before it can use.

Yes, the old album art view is gone, bu you can see the album art for a song that's playing by clicking on the art image and it will open a bigger view.
Everything else in your post is a waste. I'm not going to spend time reading it. If - and I repeat if, you have a question on how to get the best out of the new look iTunes, post it. But don't spend your time in long rambling negative rants.

Is it possible to revert to OS 10.4.8 and previous version of Garage Band?

I want to go back to OS 10.4.8 or at least reinstall the earlier version of Garage Band prior to Garage Band 08 which appears to be a buggy beta rushed to the market? Is there a simple way to reinstall the earlier version? Thx.

Thanks to all who tried to help. I copied the Garageband 3 version from my colleagues MacBookPro (we got them at the same time) to a thumb drive and copied it into apps. That got it back. GarageBand 3 works perfectly, although I did get a random stop alert (too many tracks), which never happened until I upgraded to OS 10.4.10. Also, tracks created in Garage Band 08 will not play on earlier versions of Garage Band. (I know this sounds obvious, but someone might want to know before buying the same upgrade I should not have bought.) Thanks again.

Why the new version of iTunes don't have photo features?

Why the new version of iTunes don't have phot features? How can I sync my photo from my pc to Ipad2?

Every version of iTunes that supports syncing with an iPhone has the ability to sync pictures to the device.
Resize the iTunes windowso that you can see the entire window.

GB6 is the latest version, so all current docs should directly refer to that.

I need help with the upgraded version of Garage Band '11. Its totally different.

I am incredibly frustrated with the newest version of Garage Band. I am a choreographer and constantly need to edit music. The work I do is very simple. Just cutting sections of music to make the songs shorter. I have been using Garage Band for years with total ease. I used to be able to just highlight a section of music and click delete. Now all that does is either stretch out all the timing or delete the whole track. I need simple cut edits. PLEASE HELP!!! The help sections do not help at all!

Which version of operating system are you running? Please go to Apple in menu bar, click on 'about this Mac" and click on the numbers under the big Mac OS X until you see "version 10.x.x" - copy what it says and post it here please.

Does the new version of lightroom work with an old CS5 photoshop?

Does the new version of Lightroom work with an old CS5 photoshop?

Yes - they will work together.
However, the Camera Raw versions will not match - meaning you may have to render your file into a tiff to bake-in your LR Settings before passing the file to PS CS5,

I have downloaded the garage band update version 1 to my macbook with osx but the old version of garage band is what boots up, New features are not present.

I have downloaded the new version of Garageband in an update to my new 2014 macbook with osx but it does not open with new features. It si still the original window for the app. Help. I reviewed the updates menu and it says it was installed.

I have the older 6.0.5. Looks like I'm way behind the newer version, and will need to download the 10.0.2. Will I still be able to access all of my own recordings after downloading the new version?
Yes, the newest GarageBand can open the projects from GarageBand 6.0.5.
GarageBand 10.0.2 is very different from GarageBand 6.0.5, it is more like a light version of Logic. It brings new features like drummers and arpeggiators, but dropped other importaant features like podcasts or the sound effect instrument. So you will want to keep both versions installed.
When you upgrade to 10.0.2, the installer will move your current 6.0.5 to a subfolder of Applications. On no account delete it, until you are perfectly happy with the new version. I am still starting my projects in GarageBand 6.0.5, set everything up with the easy to use GB '11 interface, and then add the finishing touches, drummers etc., in GarageBand 10.0.
Note: GarageBand 10.0 is free, but it is not a full version; you will have to make an in-app purchase to get lessons, instruments, loops. With GB '11 still installed, this should be free. See this document: Expanding GarageBand for Mac (v10.0) content with an in-app purchase

What is the current version of Garage Band?

What is the current version number of Garage Band?

What is the current version number of Garage Band?
Why are you asking? Are you planning to upgrade?
The current version 10.0.1 is is a very different application from the previous GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5.
The new GarageBand 10.0.1 is a bit of a mongrel - half Logic and half GarageBand. It brought new terrific features, like the Arpeggiators and smart Drummers, but other great features of GarageBand '11 have been dropped., no more podcast tracks, and you cannot any longer combine the effects freely.
If you decide to ugrade to GarageBand 10.0.1, make sure, not to delete the previous version. You may want to use both versions in parallel.They are compatible.

Can't download the full version of garage band...

I've just got a new macbook pro, with garage band 11, and it won't download the full version with all the instruments. I click on a instrument not on the computer, and it prompts me to download the instruments. so i try whatever and it opens the app store and tells me there are no updates available. any ideas?

I am trying to connect my ipad version of garage band to my mac book pro so as to record directly from the ipad as a midi instrument but with no success. Can you help?

I am trying to connect my ipad to my mac book pro. I want to use the ipad as a software instrument (playing from garage band) and to record in garage band on the mac book. I have plugged the ipad in, turned on the ipad and opened up garage band but the mac book pro has not picked it up. Why? Any suggestions.

Maybe it should, I'm all PC here so I can't actually test it myself. As far as I can recall all the stuff I've read has GarageBand for iOS acting as the recording instrument in the MIDI relationship rather than an input device for something else.
Could be worth posting to GarageBand for iOS Feedback and suggesting it as a feature.
