  • Is this the right forum for this? Using a foot pedal to control apps?

    My girlfriend is doing medical transcription - she listens to audio and she types. People who do this, often use a footpedal to play, pause, rewind, etc. while transcribing. I'm hoping to set her up on the Mac to do this, there are pedals which are Mac compatible, but I don't know what their limitations are, or what is possible.
    I found some typical USB pedals, examples here:
    http://www.altoedge.com/pedals/
    ...and I'm wondering if anyone has had any luck using them? Can they be configured to control certain menu functions in any application? such as using the keyboard shortcuts in the System Preferences to control certain commands in other applications? I'm thinking that I could make great use of a pedal like this to control any audio player - iTunes, Garage Band, or a 3rd party app I bought and love, "The Amazing Slow-Downer" so that I can use this to practice with the guitar, playing along with recordings, similar to how she would do the exact same thing while listening to recordings and typing.
    I hope this is the right forum to bring this up. I don't have the pedal, I'm thinking of getting one, but I was hoping to get input from someone before springing for one. Thanks!!

    Well, this took me a while to get solved, but it is indeed solved.
    I tried USB Overdrive and it could, and perhaps should work, but apparently it will not. When adding a device, it seems that USB Overdrive is not set up to handle any input device that does not register itself as either a Mouse or a Joystick. The VEC USB Footpedal that I'm using is "Device type: Other".
    So, I went for Quickeys. And Quickeys can do it all. It did recognize the device, I was able to assign it to the scope of the particular audio playback app I wanted to use (Amazing Slow Downer OS X - which is truly amazing. Any musicians reading this who are looking for a way to learn pieces by ear, this does it better than anything else I've seen yet).
    I created a shortcut in Quickeys for the ASD app; added the middle button of the foot pedal as the trigger; set one step, entering 'space bar' as the step (which toggles playback, similar to many audio players).
    It all worked.
    Quickeys is very confusing and seemingly featured with an endless array of options. Enter at your own risk. Ask me for help. This was the only way to get it done that I could find. I did write to the author of USB Overdrive asking him to please support additional devices as I did find some traction from gamers who like to use a foot pedal in addition to other input devices. There was a Windows-only management utility for the foot pedal that was intended for custom input, assigning the buttons to any keyboard input or mouse click event. It would be nice to have a simple and easy to use utility like this. But, Quickeys did do the job.
    Thanks for your help, you guys!!!

  • App store billing issue (prob not the right place for this but i couldn't find a better one)

    I have been using the same card for my itunes account for as long as i have had an itunes account and a personal credit card, all of a sudden about a week or so ago while trying to update some applications on my iphone it asked me to sign in and confirm my billing information, from that day on it has refused to recognise the security code for my credit card or any other credit card for that matter, has anyone else had a similar issue with billing for their app store/itunes account and if so is this something that can be fixed easily without sending the device out or going to a repair centre
    the most frustrating thing of all is all of the updates i need to install are free updates for applications that were also free :-/

    go to http://zip4.usps.com/zip4/welcome.jsp, enter your billing address, it will then show you how the USPS recognizes your address. Enter that address EXACTLY how it is shown on the USPS site into your itunes billing address info.

  • Not sure if this is the right forum for this.. disk drive icon on desktop

    for msn messanger. Im a new PC to mac user (3 DAYS OLD)and yesterday tried to install msn messanger. I double clicked the install file and it made a diskdrive icon in white. When I dragged the icon to the trash (msn already installed), the trash bin turned into an eject icon. I emptied the trash (like I would on windows) and the msn icon on the dock vanished. I reinstalled it and this time there was a question mark on the msn logo. So msn now works but I have an icon which I dont need on my desktop. Does this happen with all installs?

    Ok this isn't working. Im on the mac so I'll tell you exactly whats going on. I downloaded msn messanger mac version 5.1.1. The download window opens up and it downloads. I close that window. There is still a window open called "Microsoft messanger" with the icon (blue/green people). If I double click that or drag that icon to my dock bar msn opens up.
    At this point I have the messanger511.dmg file sitting on my desktop. If I quit msn the icon stays in the dock. If I eject the dmg file or put it to the trash bin, when I goto open up msn from the dock there is a question mark.
    This has been my whole point. It seems if I remove that .dmg file the program doesnt work.. am I missing something?
    ok update... I read back a few replies about the question mark thing...I had to drag the icon to the application folder as it wasnt in there. At that point I could eject the image file and everything seems ok..however when I start msn from the dock, the white disk drive shows up in finder where the macHD and the network icons are. I can eject it and it goes away but this shows up everytime I start msn..
    should I of had to do this?

  • Is this the right forum for this question

    Aloha all,
    I'm really new to photoshop...so some might ask why I'm trying such a complicated project...I'm asking myself the same query.
    I'm an underwater videographer and I'm trying to make my own web pages.  This is what I want to do...create a web page that has a series of 25 boxes of equal pixel dimensions (144 x 108), within a grid space that's 720 x 540 pixels.
    In the center box I want the text "ENTER".  When the text is mouse clicked, I want the action to take me to page 2.  Within each of the remaining 24 boxes, I want 24 of my video clips that range in time from 4-10 sec.playing on a loop.  Each clip is an MPEG4 file and has 1440 x 1080 resolution.
    Thus far I've created the grid space and the 25 boxes.  Each box is in its own layer.  The center box has the word "ENTER" and I have it sized, colored, shaded and hilighted to my satisfaction.  The background behind the TEXT is grey, the background in each box is checkerboard.  I'm using the "WEB" workspace.
    My questions are
    1) how do I make the text react to a mouse click,
    2) how do I get my clips to show up in each box.
    Can you just send me to the training lessons or help text that will begin to guide me thru my maze.
    Thanks

  • I can not resolve a plugin-container.exe error while processing payroll through ADP &have been unable to find the right fix for this. I can send error report.

    I have been receiving this error now for a few weeks and have been through multiple layers of IT help trying to resolve it with ADP/Chase Payroll services. When I go to print pay vouchers I get the plugin-container.exe error and I can not print the vouchers. I can provide screen shots if this would help. Can you please advise on how to proceed to resolve this?

    This is an issue with that plugin crashing, which isn't something we can really resolve for you. Try to disable it, find a replacement, update it, or contact their support

  • Find the right class for this...

    2 simple questions.
    What would be a good class to use to store multiple lines of strings to be output like in a message?
    Is there any good online faq/guide for using the A.P.I.? Something that you personally think would be useful to the beginner programmer... not the online documents that Sun provides.
    TIA

    best class would be a StringBuffer.
    As for your other question, the j2se API is extremely big, but you only need a small subset of it. If you need help with figuring out which classes are useful to you, it's best to start with a book. The only free online book I know is Thinking In Java, which you can find at http://www.mindview.net

    An absolute URL will be a complete URL, it traces from the abosulte root of a file's location on a server...
    http://www.thesite.com/assets/images/Front_Page_Rotating_Banner/banners.xml
    A relative URL is anything short of including the http://domain..., and is read relative to wherever the file using it exists
    assets/images/Front_Page_Rotating_Banner/banners.xml
    In Flash files though, relative links need to be specified relative to the HTML page that embeds the swf.  So if the swf is in a different folder than the html page that embeds it, the swf's targeting must be adjusted as if it were actually in the html file's folder.

  • After having had to upgrade to windows 7 i cant find the product key for my photoshop elements 8

    i kept the download for my photoshop elements 8 but after the windows 7 upgrade i cant find the product key for the PSE8

    This isn't the PSE forum Edward, but you might be aware of that.
    PSE8 is going to be fairly old I'm thinking?  Like I said... this is not the PSE forum so people don't tend to know much about it.   The reason I make that point, is that if you have previously registered your copy of PSE8, you will be able to log on to your Adobe ID, go to My orders, and find both a link to download the installation file, and your serial number.
    Other than that, I am not sure how you will find it.

  • Getting error "Unable to find the published output for this request"

    1. Created a Data Template
    2. Created a Data Definition using the above Data Template
    3. Created a RTF template and registered the same in XML Publisher Administrator
    4. Created Concurrent program for the data template using 'XDODTEXE' as executable
    5. Ran the above concurrent program and it completed successfully.
    6. When I click the 'View Output' button in Oracle applications it says "Unable to find the published output for this request".
    7. I can see the XML output in the $APPLCSF/out directory.
    8. Also the short name for concurrent program and data definition code and template code are same.
    I assume the Concurrent Manager’s Output Post Processor is not able to setup the layout template to the generated XML.
    Am I missing something here. Can anyone come across this issue.
    I have the XML publisher 5.6.1 patch on the DB. Do I need to take 5.6.2 Patch to fix this issue.
    Thanks

    I tried again after applying XDO 5.6.2. I am still not able to see the output.
