I'm trying to convert a file type

I have Win 7 and unable to convert a file from m4a to m4r. Whenever I do this the file name gets extended example:

whitechristmas. M4A is the name of the original file, and I am wanting to convert it to whitechristmas.m4r.  However, when you try to change the type of file it changes the name to whitechristmas.m4r.m4a

Is there a work around what I can do.  There is one if you are working with sharepoint files, or a server, but because it is just a file on my hard drive I'm lost and aggravated.

Thanks in advance!

I tried to request a password reset through windows but Messenger who did do the trick. Appreciate your help in this matter.

    Hello raylav,

    You should be able to dissassociate ID of your Windows with your silver account.

    Disconnect from the Internet. Open Money Plus or Money 2007, by logging in to your Money file in offline mode. Remove the Windows LiveID via password manager. You should now be able to connect to your Bank and financial institutions again.  Close Money. Reconnect to the Internet. Verify that the removal was successful

    If this does not work for you, I suggest you just go to the website of MS Money to ask questions, because they have the experts it in MS Money.

  • How to convert AVI files for first CS4 (Mac) with VLC - Please Help!

    Hi thanks for the reading-post it here for the first time.

    I'm another grass sorry, trying to convert AVI files, so I can import them into first CS4 on a Macbook Pro laptop. I am using VLC on the macbook to perform the conversion. I don't want to use free converters such as iSquint (tried and many others) b/c they cause a significant loss of video quality. But I'm trying to do it for free! (I'm broke).

    Been read tons here and on other forums to get advice first, but in my view, none is really specific to my situation.

    I'm fine (slight quality loss) video but NO Audio. I want the audio too!

    AVI files seized on an old NV3 camera SD card.

    VLC said the Codecs for these files I got off the SD card are as follows:
    0 workflow:
    Type - video
    Codec - MPEG - 4 (XVID) video
    Resolution - 640 x 480
    Rate - 30

    Stream 1:
    Type - Audio
    Codec-MS ADPCM (audio ms)
    Channels: Mono
    Sampling frequency - 22050 Hz
    Bits per sample - 16

    I tried several different configurations with VLC conversion according to the documentation of "Supported file Formats for import in first CS4": http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/4.0/WSf52ca809ac8f6c7135876f961243120b72d-8000.htm l

    For example I tried to convert the same file as follows:

    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG-1 VIDEO 1024 bits/Audio MP3 192-bit
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG-1 VIDEO 1024 bits/Audio MP3 128-bit
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG-1 VIDEO 1024 bits/MPEG Audio 128-bit
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG-2 VID 1024 bits/Audio MP3 128-bit
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG - 1 1024 bits/MPEG Audio 16 bit VID
    Wrapper MPEG 1 - converted with MPEG - 1 1024 bits/MP3 Audio 16 bit VID

    When converting to MP4 (MPEG-4) I get a general error while importing first so no dice on that, and I tried a lot of other configurations/combinations, but not all. 

    I check each result with VLC before import into the Prime Minister and they play both audio & video fine with VLC.

    My question is the following: what settings can I select in VLC for audio first? Or if there is a specific codec I need to download and install a download link... would be much appreciated.

    Alternative solution?...

    If I put these files on the SD card in my camera and click on and drag them on the macbook pro laptop as AVI files (instead of dragging to a PC first, as was the case)... don't you think it would make a diff?  Also, I tried sucking to the top of the camera first, but that didn't work... the camera turns on when connected to the computer... so that you can not navigate to a file on the camera and then use the GUI first to suck.

    I have a laptop. These original files play well with Windows Movie Maker because I downloaded the appropriate codec. Hi and low tried a mac version of this codec without result. CS4 my install discs do not work on Windows/PC. Trust me I wish they did! Even the configuration required on the package is in the absence of any mention of Windows. Windows Movie Maker convert .mov... that was my first game b4 plan, I realized that VLC was quite robust and user-friendly in its Export Wizard codec functionality.

    Any help would be much appreciated! I swear! I'm banging my head against the wall and I want to just change already!

    Thank you!

    Do not use the flow function; This isn't what you are doing.  (Although technically, I don't think it matters)

    Use the convert/save option.  The first screening, video - H.264 + AAC (MP4), should work great.  Don't change anything.  Save the file with a MOV or MP4 extension.

    If you get audio weird sounding, then create your own preset that matches the Video - H.264 + AAC (MP4) preset, uncheck only Audio the Audio tab and convert to video.  Then run convert/Save using the Audio - CD preset.  Save the file as a WAV (or an AAC?).

    Import the 2 files into PR.  You shouldn't have synchronization problems if the points are aligned in when you add them to the sequence.

    a. you try to play a file that is not supported by the player.

  • WordPad file type error

    My printer and computer are connected to the correct Internet and I printed a test page successfully.

    My problem is printing everything. I mainly use WordPad or print from my email, and when I try to print a window opens which asks me to save the .xps file or other media other than .doc or .docx.  I save the file and it still won't let me print. I tried to change the file type, but nothing comes.  I'm not print file or anything else.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    When I try to print a window which asks me to save the .xps file or other media other than .doc or .docx.

    This suggests that your default printer is set in XPS Document Writer, rather than to the printer you have installed.  When you start the printing operation, make sure that you select your printer in the upper part of the window 'print '.

    To set the value by default, click Start, and then click "devices and printers".  Right-click on your printer icon and then click 'set as default' default printer will be a green circle with a white tick, like this:

    As to convert the cube - it just will be important in first by guiding the file as above States?

    as for Speedgrade, can you just save as a glance in your path of the selected folder, and then guide your look in the first?

  • I burned some photos to disc and found trying to open later that they had a file type. TED and I can't find any reference to this type of file anywhere. What is - this and how can I open them?

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    1. You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    It is above all an extension of Adobe: http://www.fileinfo.com/extension/pdd.  None of these programs can open files.

    Here is a free product that I think will do the trick (although it does not specifically say the DPS files, I read an article from someone who has exactly your problem and this product was recommended: http://www.xnview.com/en/xnview.html.)

    The following willl convert files DP in more readable (like JPG) file types- but it's a commercial product (even if it has a 30 day free trial, then maybe you can accomplish what you need in this period and then cancel the trial) - and then find a way to burn photos using a different file type. http://www.batchconverter.com/,

    Here is a link to a bunch of file viewers and converters for Windows free (but I can't tell if they are compatible with Vista or if they deal with the DPS files because they do not provide enough information. http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/imageviewfreewin/Free_Image_Viewers_and_Browsers_for_Windows.htm,

    A complete answer would require that we know what "word processing" you use.  However, one of the types of files that are acceptable as 'pdf', you can install 3rd party freeware "CutePDF Writer" on your computer:

    CutePDF: <> http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/writer.asp >

    Note that you need to install CutePDF and Ghostscript (both on the site) on your machine.  After you do, you will find that you have another printer on your computer named "CutePDF Writer".  Print the file of word processing for this virtual printer.  When you do so, it ask for a place to store your PDF file.  Give it a name and location, and it will create a PDF file for you.   Excellent Freeware (among my top 10) and works with any application you can print from.  Especially good for saving recipes online so that you don't waste any ink/paper.
