You can solve this problem without rerip the whole album.
Just use Audacity. The program is free and have metadata editor. The new file will be without problems. I had the same problem - with winamp.  But in my case - the CD is dead and I can't rerip the content.

  • Cannot delete the file. Says "not not found could not find this item check the location of this object and try again."

    Cannot delete the file.  Says "not not found could not find this item check the location of this object and try again."

    I got this file from my friend got sent - is a word document, I had on their computer.  So I tried to use Disk Cleanup to delete temporary files, temporary internet files and files program downloaded.  Does not work.

    When I check the properties, there is no security tab so I can't transfer ownership in this way.

    I don't want to experiment using the way of the transfer of ownership command prompt as the name of the file is several sentences long.  I can't rename it either, of course.

    Windows 7, a week and I already have a stupid problem which has already lost an hour of my time.

    What I did was to create a Notepad file that was empty and saved in the same location as the file that won't go away.  Once registered.  I click with the right button on the new file and rename the exact name as the file problem.  Don't forget to change the file extension (ex: .doc)

    ex file problem: word.doc

    new file: word.doc

    as long as they match eachother exactly you should see the file problem disappear and once that's gone, you can delete the new file created.

  • Cannot delete a file in windows 7. Indicates the specified file name is not valid or too long.

    Hello everyone, I'm pretty stuck here. I can't delete a file in windows 7 or any other do with it besides. Says "the specified file name is not valid or too long. It has a funny name [~ t] and no extension. The file type, say "file". The properties are all screwed looking with a mistake on the Security tab, a size of 0 k, is a Windows (c) \Windows\en-US.The other files in this folder appear normal. The computer seems to work very well without any obvious problems. The only problem is my anti-virus reports with a kind of syntax for the file error and indicates it cannot parse this file. I do not. I can't do a thing with it either. Cannot open, rename, move, delete, change passwords, properties, permissions, nothing. It may be necessary for a good part with 0kb. According to me, I want to just delete the thing. Please, anyone? Thanks in advance.

    Hey bud, I figured out how fix it earlier. I am so happy. I came to remember a command called chkdsk which worked very well for various issues, that I had since the construction of my old 2000 Professional machine. I think that one was my first NTFS system. I always liked how well he error correction. Seemed a lot better than the old scandisk. Low and behold, I tried and star ANISE, it is went through it, found this file almost from the beginning of the analysis and a few lines later, he said has been removed. Says something about the file being orphaned some time ago. It was a very bad child, that I tell you. I ran it in safe mode command prompt. I guess he would have done the same thing in the normal windows well, but I happened to be in safemode, when it came to me. I used the switch /f with her. Since the C:\ command prompt or any drive letter your operating system is selected, type CHKDSK/F if I remember although the f was to have it automatically CORRECT errors. I hope this info helps others with their file or disk problems. It seems that many people say they get mistakes and cannot delete various files here in these forums. Thanks Sandeep for answering me and try to help. It does not matter whether or not it was the fix, it takes time to post and your helping people learn to be it. The only thing that remains unanswered for me is actually the thing of the answer. I mean I can't say someone at - it really answered my question and do not count me? Maybe I should mark so that people will bother to read it and get the fix. HMMMM... I come back here some time later and see whats up.  SeeYou, EWOO

  • Cannot delete a file in a folder that I can see his name in the list of directories

    Help

    I can't delete a file that I can see in a folder and a list of directories of files.

    The name of the file is "000" without visible extension.  Don't know if there is a hidden extension, but it isn't.

    I went into the same folder using the "Command prompt" window

    However, to enumerate the files in the command prompt window, the file name is not visible, but the forlder report indicates that there is a file whose size is 15 bytes.

    The file is not readable in a normal DOS window or text editor, which means that a file such as 'Crimson Editor' Editor opens the file, but there is no visible ASCII character.

    How can I delete this file?

    It is a virus, and if so, how can I delete?

  • Cannot delete empty file on the desktop icon...

    Work with a Dell Inspiron N5110 running Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) SP1.

    I have an icon named on my desktop which is no longer an underlying file.  When I try to remove it, the system responds that it cannot find the file.  I searched and found that there is no file with the name on the icon.

    Should what steps I take to remove the stubborn icon?

    Hello

    Do you know that the file has been – a program, a Web link, a toolbar button? Have you tried to uninstall through Control Panel (programs and features)? Have you looked into the device for her Manager (if it was related to a USB or flash drive)?

    I'm also not clear when you say that when you try to remove the system responds that it cannot find the file - exactly how you try to delete computer system responds? Have you tried just right click on it and then left-click Delete. What happens to the icon at this time?

    Sorry, but your description sounds a little strange to me. If you could answer these questions however, I may be able to help you.

    How what you are trying to delete? Have you tried to delete the attachment it yourself or the entire email. Have you tried to delete the entire thing on the server using a web browser?

    Tried to reset the phone, no joy.

    What does that mean? Have you tried to restart the phone? Have you tried to close the mail application and force restart the phone?

    Press the Home button twice quickly. You will see small glimpses of your applications recently used. Drag to the left to find the application you want to close. Swipe up on the preview of the application to close

    To force the reboot your device, press and hold the two buttons of sleep/wake and home for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

  • Why MATLAB cannot read wav files OR? Mind wav compression errors.

    I write, 1-n-channel, 24-bit wav files using the standard vi OR its file Open/Close/Write (DBL) found in LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\sound2\lvsound2.llb. This application data are acquired from a NOR-9234 via USB-9162 or NOR-cDAQ-9172. My wav files are readable by many readers of wav, including media player file (channels 1-2), SoundForge, and my own readers of LabVIEW wav file. However, MathLab is unable to read these files, saying they cannot deal with compressed wav format. As we read in the documentation of NOR, these files are decompressed. I found a player wav to header via the discussion forums and read my wav file. The compression code that was printed was-2 instead of 1 for uncompressed. Anyone had similar problems reading in MATLAB? Someone knows something about the importance of a - 2 for compression? My guess is that there is a word size problem here that MATLAB cannot process or NOR is not properly function.

    Well, I learned a little more since last we spoke. The standard MatLab wav player is wavread.m. This script must be able to read multi channels 24 bit files; but he does not read files from LabVIEW. We find a change to this script, called wavexread.m, which was developed to read wav files that use WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE. This format was developed by MS as an extended format to write multi channel + 24 bit files with more information included. LabVIEW wav files are readable by MatLab via the use of this script. Basically the script ignores formatting as if the compression for the PCM format setting was set to 1 (instead of-2 or, as we know it, "FEFF"). I tried rewriting the file binary wav and replaced the "FEFF" with "0100". This file is readable by the wavread.m of stock but not the wavexread.m extended; hiliting besides the fact that MatLab do not really care.

    However, I'll throw this back order to ask whether it is really necessary to use the extended format to write these files when the standard format would be sufficient. It sure would have made life much easier if my client did not need to worry about this.

    Thanks for your help.
