Have the Controller Assignments been fixed?

Ok, while I'm waiting for mine to arrive, if anyone out there is familiar with the (many) bugs in the handling of controller assignments, can they tell me whether these have been fixed in LP8?
Or are the same issues still there?
A reliable controller assignments window is the one thing I've most wanted since the dawn of LP7...
Cheers mateys!

Controller assignments includes quick access, control surfaces and now MIDI key commands in addition to the learn controls functionality. The whole nine yards of wax enchilada balls.
My specific problems relate to th controller learn to plugins functionality, and basic buggy operation of the window itself (for instance, clicking on cancel in one of the reassignment warning dialogs will just delete all of your assignments.)
Ok, here's a long post - I haven't exhaustively through this stuff with LP8 yet (too depressing) but I did verify that the core bad behaviour still exists identically to LP7.x...
Ah slippery haddocks, I would post the feedback I sent to Apple, but I can't find a local copy - I posted it to OSXAudio so I usually retrieve it from there but the site is down at the moment - when it comes back up, I will get it and post it...
As a quick general example, I have eight sliders I want to map to softsynth controls - let's say the GB synths, because they have limited controls. So I open the first one, and map the eight controls to my eight sliders. Cool. Works fine. I then load up the next one, and map those eight controls to my sliders.
This is cool, because whatever GB instrument I load in the instrument slot, my controller will control the 8 parameters I want.
I keep going. At some point (which is random), the odd learned control will just stop working - ie, after I've learned maybe 6 or 7 instruments, a random control on a previous instrument just won't respond. If you try and "fix" it by relearning the control, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it just means other controls randomly stop working.
Worse still, when you twiddle a control to see which parameter it's assigned to, the incorrect assignment is called up in the controller assignments window, so you just don't have a clue what's going on.
There are plenty of others, but basically, setting up controller assignments works for a few simple things, but it corrupts and becomes a major pain very quickly.
It's a shame, because I was developing an awesome controller config, where I had buttons on my controller that would switch modes between mixer, instrument, plugin settings and so on, and I always had the most important parameters of all my plugs under my fingertips.
Except for Logic's randomly flaky corruption which rendered the whole thing pointless (as you never knew what was randomly going to stop working).

Have any heat issues been fixed in the new MBPs

I'm interseted in buying a new MBP. Does anyone know if any of the heat issues been fixed in the latest MBPs? And are the GPU's still underclocked?

Nicolas, I've got a week 12 MBP and have never considered it to have a heat problem.
Just made another 15 minute run of System Load with both CPUs at 100%. The CPU temp momentarily hit 78 C, then the fans kicked in (quietly) and the temperature stabilized at 73 C.
The current CPU temperature is 51 C, which is normal for routine writing, Web browsing and downloading to my database. When I'm doing database work that frequently but for only brief bursts pegs the CPUs, the temps run in the high 50s to low 60s C. On battery power, the temps drop several degrees C.
The computer remains comfortable to use at all times. Note: I use it on an aluminum tilt stand, whether on my desk or in my lap.
Haven't done the "grease fix" and don't plan to.

Is anyone here fluent in the Controller Assignments window?

I have a Mackie C4 Pro and I built a rather complex environment layer of virtual sliders (that works) for controlling parameters of an external synth not supported by the C4.
I would like to control all the knobs in this particular environment via the C4...however, Logic's implementation of the C4's driver combined with the Controller Assignments window is cryptic to say the least. Despite reading the manual, it still makes little sense as to why things are not working.
As it stands, the mackie C4 has about 50 modes within a particular zone, most of which are usable with the exception of 8 "user" modes.
These 8 user modes are selectable from the C4 itself yet contain no control assignments. Attempting to create control assignments yields no effect on the C4. When I try to apply even a label to my newly attempted controller assignments, the label field resets itself to blank when I switch between modes. As well, the parameter field remains ghosted and uneditable.
Right now all I am trying to do is assign mod wheel control to one of the v-pots under the user mode #1. So far it seems to be resisting any customization.
here is a screen shot of my controller assignments window:

i did now
its kind of ironic that there's no help available through apple's website for a rather elaborate implementation in their own software...especially when considering Apple wrote the driver for the C4

HT201210 is the io.7 been fixed yet, with the battery life dying on the iphone,

has the iphone battery life been fixed yet, since the io.7 been added to the phone

I'm not having any problems with IOS7 on my Iphone 5.
I think it's a lot to do with the settings you have turned on. One big draw is the Background App Refresh.

Has the I05 update been fixed?

Still running I)4 on my original IPAD and am fearful of updating to I05. Has the update been fixed?

iOS 5 update works very well on my iPad 2 ... I like multi-touch gestures the most as I can use less of Home button. However, WiFi Sync with my iTunes Windows 7 (x64) does NOT work despite trying several solutions suggested by users in this forum.
However, iOS 5 update on iPhone 4 has been very bad just like the thousands of users who have been complaining in this forum and elsewhere. Extremely sluggish performance and high battery consumption rate. After trying several combinations to turn off several SHOW PIECE features, I have finally narrowed it down to CALENDAR Notification ... turn in off in Settings > Notification > In Notification Center (scroll down to) > Calendar > Notification Center [OFF]. Turning this off defeats the purpose ... 2 steps forward (with iOS) and 4 steps backwards (Calendar alerts/notification is very important). With Calendar Notification ON, the CPU usage is over 90% ... the moment it is turned OFF, it returns to less than 10%.
Well, this is my experience ... it may or may not fix for others though!
Cheers

Have my Keynote quibbles been fixed?

I'm wondering if 09 has fixed my two major issues with Keynote:
1. Can the slide be seen centered in the work area rather than stuck top-left?
2. Has the bug been fixed where exporting to Powerpoint fails when there are speaker notes?
Thanks

Regarding #1. Easiest work-round I've found to the problem of starting motion paths to the left of slide edges is:
1) set up the motion effect with the object you're animating starting at the left edge of the slide.
2) then select object and use inspector to enter a -xxx pixels position to move the start of the motion to a point 'off stage left'.
A bit clunky but reasonably quick to do. Do you know any other workround?

I just bought my first iphone. I am so disappointed in the battery life on the iphone5. Have the phones always been this way? Is there anything in the works to improve the battery life?

I just bought my first iphone. I am so disappointed in the battery life of the iphone 5. Is this the norm for iphones? Are they working on a fix to this problem? Almost wishing I had bought something else.

Without knowing what battery life you are seeing we can't determine if you have a problem. Have you compared your usage to the Technical Specifications?
Talk time: Up to 8 hours on 3G
Standby time: Up to 225 hours
Internet use: Up to 8 hours on 3G, up to 8 hours on LTE, up to 10 hours on Wi-Fi
Video playback: Up to 10 hours
Audio playback: Up to 40 hours
Under normal use, unless there's a problem with your phone, battery life is comparable to any other smart phone and better than some. If you've never owned a smart phone before you will be disappointed with the battery life on all smart phones. You should expect to charge any of them daily. It's a mistake to think of it as a phone at all; it's a very powerful pocket-sized computer that can also make phone calls.

Has the firmware upgrade on the time capsule been fixed to allow iphones on the wireless network? I reloaded the previous firmware edition and it fixed the problem. thx

I checked beofre on the support communities when I was having trouble with the iphone 4 not being able to connect to the time capsule wireless after upgradeing the firmware. When I reloaded the previous firmware version, the iphone wireless problem was gone. Now the time capsule is asking to upgrade to that same newer version of firmware.
I don't want to do it until the iphone 4 wireless connection problems have been addressed. thanks

......will other users on the primary network (not the private wifi one) be able to access my files on my TCapsule?
No, if you have not provided them with the Time Capsule device password.
Users will be able to "see" the Time Capsule icon under the SHARED heading in the Finder on their Macs, but they will not be able to access the drive or the files.
I had also been thinking about wirelessly extending the wifi network (a linksys N router) but I guess that will allow everyone to access my Time Capsule?
Same answer as above.

Ios 5.1 issue - why have the music controls been disabled when iphone is docked?

I just updated my iphone 4s yesterday, and immediately I have a huge problem.
When I dock the phone in my car (using a Denison dock) OR connect it via bluetooth to my car stereo, all of the music controls are locked!
The Music App becomes a white screen with "device connected" written on it, and there is no way for me to play/pause/skip/browse music on the handset.
Even double-clicking the home button, the audio controls are greyed-out and don't function.
I am furious about this, why break something that was working perfectly before? It's not for safety reasons because the iphone is happy for any other app to be used while docked. I use my iphone in the car all the time, and it is utterly USELESS if I can't use the Music app normally.
I have tested with docks at home, and this issue seems to occur only when the connected device can also control the iphone. I need to stress that no car controls can allow easy use of the Music app - it means you have to take the device off the dock to make any changes in what you're listening to.
PLEASE can this go back to the way it was!?

Found another post with a similar issue after upgrading to ios 5 and this worked for him, I might try this tonight and will re-post if it worked for ios 5.1:
1)Connect phone
2)Hightlight your phone on the left side of the iTunes window
3)Click on the music tab towards the top middle of the iTunes window
4)Uncheck "sync music"
5) Click "Apply" down on the bottom right At either this step or the preceding step you might get a
pop up box that says "you have made changes" or something like that, click okay or apply.
6)After this is finished, check to make sure there is no music left on your iPhone by double clicking on your
iPhone in the left hand pane of iTunes and then click on "music" under your iPhone
7)If there is no music on your iPhone, then recheck the "sync music" and then click "apply" down in the
bottom righ.
8)If you have a lot of music it will take hours to sync, but when finished your Dock accesorries should work again.

Anyone have the IFRAME in WIKI fix for Mavericks?

So much has changed that I am not sure if the fixes for this problem will work.. I did it before the last major upgrade but after the upgrade it no longer worked. I lost a lot of work. So I am wondering if anyone has the new fix.

Hello
Try -
tell item t of sel
set album artist to (get artist) & " / " & (get name)
end tell
instead of -
tell contents of item t of sel
set {album artist} to ({get artist} & " / " & {get name})
end tell
In your original code, the left and right value of assignment are both list, i.e. -
left value = {album artist}
right value = {get artist, "/", get name}
Consequently 'album artist' is assigned to the 1st item of the list at right, which is the result of 'get artist'.
In order to avoid this, don't use list assingment, which is not necessary at all here.
Also, I think you may just tell item t of sel, not contents of item t of sel.
Hope this may help,
H

How can I save controller assignments with a project?

How can I save controller assignments with a project, so that I can use different controller assignments for the same synth in another project
Let's say I am controlling a Logic instrument with MIDI and CC data sent from MaxMSP. I have created a composition and would now like to make another one, with new assignments of controllers, in a new project. Is it possible to save the first piece's c.a. with it's project, so that I can switch between projects and have the controller assignments switch accordingly? Is that something that's become possible in Logic X with Smart Control or another workaround?
Thanks a lot for any hints!

With standard instruments you can cable transformers before the objects translating incoming cc's to "fader" events.
With the new plug-ins they've hacked into Logic (ultrabeat, sculpture) this isn't possible, so your stuck with the "controller assignments" window which to me seems to be aimed at dedicated control surfaces and autoloads. My experiences with the controller assignments window aren't good, as i've found it drops incoming messages quite often.
Knowing how to do this(controller assignments per song) would give me a reason to open the controller assignments window again..Pretty useless to me otherwise.

Have the drop-down menus in Muse been fixed?

I recently had a problem with Adobe Muse (Case #0183888983). I was emailed the information that the problem, malfunctioning drop-down menus in my site, had now been fixed. In the meantime I decided on my own to access an earlier version of Muse through Time Machine and then re-save and publish the Muse site with this earlier version. I'm afraid I don't dare open up the Muse site in this fixed version in case it doesn't work as described, and then I have to go through the tedious process again. So there's no way I can tell if my site would function with the new fixed Muse. The next time I create a new site, I'll be able to determine whether the bug has been fixed.

Muse 3.1 did fix a couple of issues with menu bars.

If you could be more specific about the problem you were seeing, someone could probably confirm if 3.1 fixes it.

5800 - have ANY bugs been fixed?

My 5800 has a few problems. It is 7 months old and still under warranty.
The firmware is v30 and since the update I've noticed the following:
- alarm clock bug - alarm and snooze don't go at the time set.
- internet browser drops and closes whilst surfing.
- streaming real player radio is very intermittent and keeps buffering or drops out completely.
- display locks and 'black' screen during real player streaming.
I may have other faults not yet noticed but my question is, are the above problems actual faults AND can they be fixed forever. I don't want a hard reset or re flash for the bugs to return. I've spoken to Nokia who say send the phone to the care centre but I don't want a yoyo phone back and forward with bugs that Nokia have yet sorted. I understand v31 isn't any better but I cannot update to that here.
I don't want a phone with problems and am at the stage I want to reject the phone as not fit for purpose but Nokia say they can fix it.
Can they?? Have they?

Hmm, well the only issue I have with the 5800 is the same one as the above poster said. The phone doesnt handle this website very well, but it does work very good on other websites. For one thing a lot of the bugs has been fixed as the only bugs I've ever encountered is the Nokia Forum bug and the sometimes closing of the browser. However its seemed that the browser problem I was having is related to the signal strenth of the wifi spot was in, so no biggie. Also, Opera Mini 5 is a phone saver in terms of the web browsing experience.
All in all the phone is awesome.
If you find my post helpful please click the green star on the left under the avatar. Thanks.

Has the backlight hissing problem been fix

Hi,
I'm about to buy a small flash memory mp3 player and am considering getting one of the creative muvos. Either one of the newer ones or I can get the TX SE GB at a very low price.
I'd like to know if the distortion (hiss) introduced into the sound output of the players, caused by the backlight, has been fixed for any of the muvo range.
I would like to use the player under low light conditions where the backlight would be essential to browse for a specific track. Searching the forums shows that the problem goes back quite a while.

I suppose no reply means the problem still exists and has been swept under the carpet by creative.
I'll get an iPod nano or a Samsung YP-Z5 instead.
