Re: A Couple Questions About Freemake Audio Converter

2013-03-14 Thread Evan Reese
Thanks Dean, I accidentally solved the problem of the duplicate files. I 
created a preset, and then the program didn't create duplicates anymore. 
Strange but true.


I saw that button, but I guess I wasn't feeling adventurous enough to press 
it and see what would happen.


Thanks again.

Evan

I don't use the audio converter but do use the video converter which will 
convert only to mp3.


so in the video converter you choose which files you want to convert then 
go to the convert menu and select which format you wish to save the files 
in. Then a dialog comes up where you can tab to change preset to change 
the quality of the file. If you keep tabbing you will come to a button 
that just says ... which is three dots. Enter on this to choose where to 
save your converted files. in the video converter the only two things in 
the dialog after this is a checkbox to import into iTunes and tab once 
more to the convert button.


I have no idea why it is putting two copies of the same song together.

Subject: A Couple Questions About Freemake Audio Converter

Guys, I've installed this Freemake Audio Converter, and done some file 
conversions with it. It's (mostly) accessible with my Window Eyes 8.1, and 
it does exactly what I want it to do, that is, convert my mp3 files into 
m4a files, sounding the same but saving me on storage space. It'll even 
convert multiple files at once, so I can convert whole albums at a time. 
And, it preserves most of the audio tags. So I like the program overall 
and I want to use it. However, I just had a couple of questions:


I can't figure out how to tell it where to put the converted files. That's 
a minor annoyance, but the bigger problem is that it is making two of 
every converted file. Except for the filenames, of course, they are 
exactly the same, making the conversions twice as long and then causing me 
to have to delete the duplicates. Anyone seen this and know how to stop 
it, and does anyone know of a way to tell it where to put its converted 
files? There doesn't look to be any option for that in the menus anywhere.



Thanks much.

Evan

Question About Free You Tube Converter

2013-03-14 Thread Tom Kaufman
Hello List:  I am trying to convert a You Tube Video to MP3, using Free You 
Tube Converter.  But am not having luck (I know I have used the program before) 
but it seems to not be giving me what I want!  Have they changed something, 
causing it to not be accessible?  Maybe I need someone to send me precise 
instructions as to how to use this program, but it's just not letting me find 
what I think I'm supposed to find!  Or maybe it's my computer that is at fault; 
maybe it's just too slow to respond to the commands or something!  I keep 
tabbing..but it's taking me nowhere!  I see a video that I have converted from 
a good while ago..but it's not letting me get off of that spot!  I'm sorry that 
I am unable to explain this any better!  Am using Jaws 14 and Windows XP.  
Hopefully someone here can understand what it is I'm trying to say and can help 
me figure out what is going on here!  
Thanks,
Tom Kaufman

RE:

2013-03-14 Thread Blackwell, Clifford
Check out http://www.emusic.com  It started out as a site that emphasized 
alternative and independent artists and has slowly migrated to a more 
mainstream offering.  There's still plenty of the edgy stuff though!

They've just started offering "a la carte" purchasing, about $10 U.S. per 
album.  If you purchase a monthly membership, you can get most track for 
between $.49 and $.99  They have some pretty good specials from time to time.

You do need to download and install a Download Manager from their site which is 
inaccessible, but once you get it installed, you don't really need to do 
anything with it.  For the most part, the site is accessible though they're 
running a "contest" right now that is not and the Customer Service is terrible, 
but I seldom need to deal with them.

Rather than buying CD's, ripping them and putting them in a box in the

good value and accessible.

Whilst I use an I phone I have no interest in I tunes.
