Audio file storage size HD Mac

When I go to 'about this Mac' my iMac HD list 157 GB of audio files, but I can only find 69GB of music files when I search the HD by genre. My Music folder is about 65 GB, which is consistent with the file iTunes etc, and I know that when the other 4 GB. The question is where are the almost 100 GB of music files that I can't find, and how to remove them?

    How can I extract an audio file of a PDF in Pro? (Mac). Properties it is a .m4a file.

    Thank you

    Hi Tim,.

    This is not a supported feature. If the PDF is secured and you have the legal rights to extract the audio, it would be possible to locate and unzip the PDF file raw file data using third-party tools as follows the structure of the file of low-level (a hex editor or editor Cos) - but Acrobat can not help you.

  • Can't understand why audio files always take a lot of space on my macbook

    Hi everyone, I apologize if this has been asked before, I'm going cross-eyed trying to find an answer.

    Stupidly, I didn't use iCloud DOES NOT mean that all my music and photos would be stored on the cloud and take MUCH space on my macbook. I discovered the hard way. So I'm moving all my pictures and music on an external drive. All well and dandy. Except that since I moved my iTunes library and all my music files, when I look at my storage, it shows still 154 GB allocated to audio. (Meanwhile there are now 140 GB Audio on my seagate SOMETHING that was supposed to happen happened.) I've looked everywhere, I can't understand why there are still some 154 GB of audio files on my laptop. Any suggestions or tips are greatly appreciated. Please be lenient, I was on a pc for a few decades and finally crossed the step last year, but I'm still confused by all this cloud stuff and find my way in on a mac. (I'm on OS X Yosemite). I guess it's one thing to iTunes, but I could be far away.

    Thank you in advance.

    I guess that after you copied the folder iTunes external hard disk, you checked if everything is there, then deleted the folder iTunes on your Mac drive.

    If NOT, then you know what to do.

    If so, force Spotlight to reindex the reader.

  • Audio interview with corrupted after importing files! How to reverse changes body makes into audio files?

    Hello

    I have a terrible problem. I recorded audio interviews for a documentary with quicktime and a connected microphone. I had to reduce some noise to the files, and since I know my way around garageband (I know, not very pro), but this program has failed to the .mov, so I renamed the momentarily .mp3 files. Two of my nine audio files are saved because I had already imported them in Britain. I was just curious to know if the first would take the renamed files, unaware that first actually changes files when you import, even - as in this case - if they are denied. So I have renamed their return to their original .mov, but first you don't take those too more. In fact no program, I tried (vlc, QT, mpeg streamclip) recognized them, what extension, including .aac (record format) initial and h264 (once worked in the past with another problem).

    So I saw the last modified date had changed at the time that I tried to import them and when I opened the file in textedit, I saw many lines where I found the words adobe and creation, and it was also a complete mess of unicode. If you open an affected record to quicktime, you get a completely different picture of a few lines, so those who seem for the most part unreadable by textedit.

    These records are very important to me and the size of the files seems to be the same. He was wrong about this thought first that he was dealing with an mp3 player while he was not and therefore corrupt the file. I would be very grateful for any means possible to invert the first changes made to these files! I included a link where you can download one of the smaller files for an expert can see what is wrong here: http://www.mediafire.com/?yje79kqe9tbueki

  • Audio files imported into iTunes shot in Streaming Audio

    I use iTunes to organize the audio files I've created with GarageBand and create my own albums.  iTunes game allowing to synchronize these albums to my four Macs without problems.

    It worked until I signed up for the trial of AppleMusic plus iTunes game.

    Suddenly the iTunes library on three of the four Mac Sync showed a number of my own songs like 'Apple Music Audio File'.

    When I create a smart playlist with the rule:

    • Artist contains Leonie and iCloud status is Apple music

    I find 17 of my own creations that are all of a sudden Apple music.

    And after the end of the trial of AppleMusic I couldn't play them any longer. When I tried, I got the prompt to renew the composition of Apple's music.

    turingtest2 helped me to clone a good library for my other four Macs and start over.

    This helped for a month or two, but now more and more my own audio songs are transformed into 'Streaming audio' for a change, is no longer Apple Audio music file with the iCloud status 'pending '.

    I use OS X 10.11.5 on every Mac, with the new iTunes.

    Should I try to restore the iTunes Library again on three Macs synchronized from a good copy master?

    EEK. I've seen iTunes decided to process the files on the local network who have been referred by a UNC path as internet stream before today. What I don't understand is how an internet stream is supposed to get loads of iCloud.

    I think back to a well known version of the library is the only way to solve. What do you see as the location on the tab file for one of the audio tracks?

  • In preview, can I listen to audio files in an interactive pdf?

    We did a huge interactive pdf file in InDesign, with text and sound and video files. They read well both in Acrobat Reader on imac and a PC with Acrobat Pro. The file opens in the application overview on imac, but then the audio files and video files are not possible to open. Anyone know if there is a feature to listen to sound files in the application preview or Acrobat Reader is that so?

    If your A / V files are not also playable in the preview, then there is no configuration preview that will change this fact, and the interactive visualization is Adobe Acrobat Reader on the Mac.

  • Audio files not appearing is not on iPod Nano

    Just bought the Nano and am struggling to understand how it works.  Namely:

    I dragged a few (.wavs and MP3) audio files from my office on the icon of the Ipod that was also on my desk.  A green "plus" sign popped up.  Good sign.

    I have released the files and got an icon of activity indicating that files have been copied to the Ipod.  So far so good.

    I hear that his metal "thunk" which means that the file transfer was completed successfully.  Great!

    But then when I go on my Nano, the files are not found.

    Can someone out there who's smarter than me give me some advice?  Thank you.

    This is not a method for loading the songs on an iPod.  ITunes allows you to manage songs on an iPod.  You're a Mac user, iTunes is already installed.  If these song files that you have added manually (using the Finder) are still on the iPod, drag them to the trash.  Don't forget to empty the trash.

    Launch iTunes, connect the iPod.  The iPod is displayed as a button on the device on the horizontal bar that runs through the window iTunes.  Click to display the settings of the iPod summary screen in the iTunes window.  If you want to use the manual method of drag and drop (kinda like what you were doing with Finder earlier), find the check box for the videos and music manually manual.  If it is not already checked, check mark and click Apply (your iPod can be set that way already).

    Then show your music library (click on the button at the left end of the horizontal bar of the music ) in the iTunes window.  Towards the middle of the horizontal bar, click playlists.  A side bar appears along the left side of the window, with your iPod listed under devices.  Use the control to the right end of the horizontal bar to choose your vision of the music library.  I like to use the songs view, to display a list of plain sortable song with columns.  She draws a song to the sidebar in your list, hold-click-drag and drop it on the iPod.  You can do it with more than one song chosen at the same time on the list.  Or you can use the display Albums or artists for library and drag a set of songs from iPod.  Alternatively, instead of drag and drop, right click on an element or selection and add it to the Playlist-> [name of the iPod].

    If you use the method to Manage manually , you must also know how to manually remove songs from iPod.  In the sidebar, click on the small triangle to the left of the iPod, to fall to the bottom of its list of content (indented below the iPod).  In the content list, click music.  On the right, the list of songs from iPod.  Select a song you want to delete and press delete on the keyboard.  You can do this with more than one song chosen at the same time.

    You can also use the automatic synchronization method to load songs on iPod (instead of manually), which is often more practical (depending on how you use your iPod).  You can post back for more information on the configuration of Auto-Sync to the music.

    I could not send an audio file to WAV (62.8 MB), MP3 format (5.7). Am I limited in Windows Mail? Is there a way to get around this?

    You are not limited in WinMail, but you are by your server. 62.8 MB is enormous not to mention sending it's code. That triggers the size by a third, and now it's a 83.7 MB file. A common limit is 25 MB, and many Internet service providers have a smaller limit.

    Download the file on a site like Photobucket or SkyDrive and just email a link to it.

  • store a series of audio files

    Hi, I'm developing an application where I wanted to add a series of audio files.  my current prototype does not load in the Simulator as soon as I add more of both .mp3.  I exchanged the actual mp3s and exit the project folder "/ bin", so it seems related to the overall size of the project.

    My question is: what is the most effective way to store and play audio files?  I'm targeting 9800 models for my user base.  the best option would be to have install the audio files as a separate filesystem, where my code will then point to a constant file location?  which would limit the model of phones that I could target if I look at more than just 9800 models?

    tips are very welcome!

    The best way to store mp3 files is located on the media map file system. I do not recommend to store mp3 files in the file system that is located in the device memory. Because in situations when it is internal memory volume lack smart phone BlackBerry becomes crazy and works unstable.

    If you want to distribute with your application mp3 files, I see two ways.

    The first: distribute mp3 files in the archive to be downloaded and extracted from the card out of holder of the device connected (via USB).

    The second: download all the files needed by your application is installed and install on the SD card.

    The second way is more expensive for your customers. You can implement both directions and letting a client select, an approach he prefers. Remember user about additional fees if client review selects installation wireless mp3 files.
