Re: AIFF files will not play on iPod, will on iTunes

The testaiff file
Is the file you asked me to test.

It is a single tone running about 12 seconds.

There may me undertones, overtones, cyber tones
But it is one track.
which suggests to me that
yes, the test file you gave me is MONO!

Did not try to play on iPod but expect is ok. Peak liked the file and played it for me. I still want the Multi Export Aiff files to com...

Re: AIFF files will not play on iPod, will on iTunes

Let's try and get this straight - the only thing iTunes can import is a CD's contents. And that is a proper Red Book CD either commercially pressesd or one that has been burnt by you our someone else suing CD burning software (such a disc will have a single stream of data, the audio, and a small TO...

Re: AIFF files will not play on iPod, will on iTunes

Importing into your iTunes library should be as simple as dragging the files in. iTunes may reserve the term "importing" for CD extraction, but if you cannot drag an AIFF file in to iTunes I would call it broken. I can drag an AIFF file into iTunes but that is not "importing". In iTunes, press iTun...

Re: AIFF files will not play on iPod, will on iTunes

Does not seem to be the case in Itunes 10.6.3.
on Mac OS X 10.5.8

Only option is to convert to AAC.

IF I could get iTunes to "import" then I would have options.

No right click control click

Click the Import Settings button half way down on the right. In the "Import Using" dropdown, choose "AIFF Encoder". Then you can ...
