  • How to import audio MP3 downloaded iTunes 11.4 (18)?

    I downloaded a number of MP3 audio files on the internet about my Macbo to play on the Macbook (OS 10.6.8) and my mini iPod.  However, I can't figure how to get them in my iTunes library.  I first tried selecting file/add to the library, open the file downloaded on my desktop and selecting each one individually, but when I looked into "Songs" in iTunes, they do not appear in my library.  Then I tried/library/import Playlist files and do the same thing, but they do not always appear.  Then I tried to move the desktop folder in music/Amazon MP3 (seemed logical, because they are MP3 files, but not Amazon), but it does not improve.

    To make things even more confusing, when I chose to add to the library or selection of importation, rather than add the good songs in iTunes, it added duplicates of some totally independent songs that were already in the iTunes library (neither the song nor the titles of the album any resemblance between them).  Would be very grateful for any suggestions!

    Create a blank playlist. Drag files to it. If your files have arrived without labels, it will be obvious.  Remember when he made this way iTunes makes a copy of the file in the folder of appropriate support.

    Alternatively, you can place the files in the folder automatically add to iTunes. Rejects all the iTunes files will be put in a rejected folder. Others will be added, and should appear at the top of the list of added reading recently.

    iTunes 9: understanding the "Automatically add to iTunes" folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3832 - files placed in this folder are actually moved from this folder to the correct location in the iTunes Media folder.

  • Impossible to import audio in Captivate 3.0

    We created using Adobe Audition WAV files. When we try to use import > Audio feature, we get the following error:
    Impossible to decode and import the selected WAV/MP3 file.
    I am able to listen to the file through Windows media player and recorder of Windows sounds with no problems, I can not get to import into my Captivate project.

    any ideas on what we can do?

    We tried, but got an error in the tape recorder, saying: he could not convert the file. He would play very well, but for some reason any could not change the format. In any case, we got this problem by exporting out of hearing as MP3 audio files and these files imported into our Captivate project without any problems, so we were able to move. Thanks for responding.

  • Impossible to import audio files

    honestly this made me angry at Adobe.

    No matter the format, regardless of the bitrate, I can't import ALL audio files into flash CS4 without getting the error "one or more files were not imported because he had problems reading of their.

    This happens both when I import into the scene and import them into the library.

    Please if you know something about this please help otherwise the entire flash program is useless for me.

    Also, I found online that the installation of quicktime solves the problem. He has not worked for me, I have reinstalled quicktime 3 times to make sure.

    Have you tried to import other audio files? Have you tried one of these offending files import in an audio editor application and resave the file, and then import the new version?

    If all else fails, you can re - install Flash.

  • Windows XP system. import an mp3 audio

    When I try to import a mp3 file, filmmaker jams

    This forum category is oriented towards the support of the latest version of Movie Maker (2011 and 2012) for Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8... but I am familiar with the version of XP Movie Maker 2.1.

    If you have problems with certain file types, the best course of action is to convert this file to .wma format instead.  I used Freemake Audio Converter for this task and it works well.  As with all freeware, pay attention to what it offers to install. I always uncheck everything except the program.

    Hi chelseac46438928,

    Please make sure that you have permissions to the folder where you try to import images.

    Or you can try to change the location of import of images in Lightroom.

  • I can't import audio data into Flash pro Cs5

    I can't import audio data Flash Pro Cs5, I'm new to Flash pro and I'm working on an interactive story, I need audio that I download from incompetech.com. MP3s are fine and play in windows Mp3, but when I try to bring them into Flash I get a message saying that it can't import them and does not say why. I have looked at this but impossible to find an answer, I work with windows 7, flash Cs5 64 bits in actionscript 2.0 and I do not have a good editior just flash.

    This usually means that there is a problem of sampling rate.

    Load your mp3 into a sound editor and then export it using the standard settings.

    Could not import the music downloaded from iTunes for Windows Movie Maker.  He plays in Windows Live Movie Maker and plays on my computer.  Cannot find the codec. Tried the solution to this same question and in help.

    Hello
     
    Some audio and video file formats are not supported in Windows Movie Maker and cannot be imported. However, if you have a video or audio file that is not taken care of, you can use a non-Microsoft video editing software to convert the file into a format supported by Windows Movie Maker, and then import the video file or an audio resulting in Windows Movie Maker. Some files also require you to install a codec before you can use the files in Windows Movie Maker.
    Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    =====================================
    MP3 files can be problematic in Movie Maker...
    Best bet would be to convert the files to the. WMA
    format before you import into Movie Maker.

    There are many converters available on the net... the
    the following link is an example:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory (freeware)
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory
    (the 'direct link' is faster)
    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup295.zip<>
    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
    ('all' boxes on the last screen)
    (Windows XP / Vista / 7)

    First... after the download and installation of Format
    Factory... you can open the program and
    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
    (this is where you find your files after they)
    are converted)

    Drag and drop your music files on the main screen...

    Select "while"WMA"/ OK...

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

    Original title: Amazon MP3 in Windows Movie Maker import problems.

    Still have Windows XP.  Bought and download MP3s on Amazon, but is unable to import into Windows Movie Maker.  Says file corrupt (all of them) or is not compatible (MP3 should be).  I tried to convert it to WAV and WMA - still will not work.  Get desperate.  I would be very happy any help you could provide.  Thanks in advance.

    Experienced same problem with Amazon MP3 downloads.  Could not bring to import into Movie Maker.  Read somewhere to convert WMA of the song, but couldn't find out how to do this.  I wanted to download 3rd party software.  Had already created the CD with the songs that I wanted to use mm.   Ripped from this CD for PC with Windows Media Player, which gives you option to change the format.  Changed the format to WMA format and then imported into Movie Maker.  After all, hope this time it helps you, too.

  • Window Movie Maker will not import a mp3 file get that a C: {file location} .mp3 error could not be imported

    OP: Window Movie Maker will not import an mp3 file. Why?

    I tried to imort a song from my music file which is in mp3 format, but the program won't. She won't tell me why, it just says: "C: {file location} .mp3 cannot be imported."  I imported 2 other songs that are the same exact format. Why is it cant import the file?

    Hello spardigus,

    1 - is the full error you get when you try to import the file?

    Some of the Mp3 files can be compressed in various formats. I suggest that you search information below and check out them if you are able to import the files.

    It might be possible that the file may be corrupted and is not readable by Movie Maker. I suggest that you copy the file to a different location on your computer and you are trying to import.

    Also check the size of the file. If it shows 0 bytes, there are good chances that the file may be damaged.

    I suggest that you try to convert this file to avi format using an Audio Converter. There are several converters which helps you convert the file in the required format. Convert the file and try to import.

    You can use your favorite search engine to find the program that will help convert the files.
