Help! I lost my musical typing keyboard

Hello,
I have worked in GarageBand for about a month since I got my new Macbook. However, somehow I lost the box for musical typing, the one that shows the keyboard. Thus, I can't continue on my song unless I painfully enter my ideas note by note.
I'm not really sure what I did and I have no clue how to fix it. Still, I'm pretty sure it is easy to fix... for someone else!
Please help!
Emma

the only other thing i can offer is a program i wrote a couple of years ago to try to fix GB4 files (it's never been tested on GB5 files):

  • Musical Typing - Keyboard is cut off

    Hey there,
    I'm having a problem with the musical typing keyboard.
    Somehow I shrunk it and now only the top half is visible.
    Any ideas?

    Hi. I had this trouble also. I was using musical typing, then I switched tracks and did other things, then came back and it did not work. I don't know what I might have hit in the interim that turned it off. The mouse/cursor still plays music, but the keyboard does not.
    In fact, when I type now on the keyboard, the whole screen greys out. But this doesn't seem to be all the keys; for example, 'R" still starts recording.

    OK, so it's now a minute later and the mute button WAS on for that track. I swear I checked it! Consider this solved for now.

    Nope. Well, it worked for a minute there, then stopped again after I moved a track. What is going on here? Yeesh.

  • Moving the Musical Typing Keyboard Range

    When I'm playing using the computer's keyboard, I can't shift the available keys to the space I want. I can make bold moves by pressing 'z' or 'x', but I need a space that moves a smaller amount. Normally I plus in my (music) keyboard, but I like playing for a few moments in random places, and would like to get the most out of it.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    That's something I wish they'd change. I'm going to request it via the Feedback option. You may want to do the same.

  • The Musical Typing Keyboard is not working.

    It was working before but now it is no longer working. You can see when I press the keys, but they will not make sound. The green bar that usually lights up when you press the keys is not working either.

    No need to take the computer at this stage.   Just take the keyboard into your local Apple store for examination.   If you have another machine, not necessarily Apple, you could try the board on that or perhaps a friend's machine … they are largely universal.

  • Help, I lost my music using Itunes Match.  I was trying to add to a new computer.

    I must have misunderstood what the cloud could do.  I gave it the go ahead and it did not take what was on my phone or ipad and put it into my computer.  Instead, the small amount on the computer replaced everything on the two devices.  I now have paid $24.99 for a service that did the opposite of what I needed to have done.

    Not directly but you can sync to an iTunes equipped computer and then sync to the iPad...unless you have single-use tunes which cannot be shared.

  • Can someone help me, lost my music

  • Musical typing not working properly

    Hey guys I'm new to Logic Pro X and Im having some difficulties with the Musical typing keyboard.
    For some reason the note "E2" does not play when I hit the "D" key on my keyboard, all the other notes work fine and even with lower and high octaves but for some reason "E2" does not work. I checked the Velocites and an its fine so I have no idea what it could be as it was working earlier today.
    Any help would be much appreciated

    Open your Controller Assignments window (cmd-K), delete the assignment to E2 and close the window. Make sure Learn Mode is off (=grey button - blue button means it's on))

  • Musical Typing Window

    Is there anyway to make the musical typing keyboard work with Finale? I used to own a huge rack of gear and have now paired down to a single laptop. Simple entry in Finale takes a long time as does to some extend "speedy entry" Hyperscribe is the fastest, but requires hooking up my pro keyboard etc.
    Anyone know how this could be bridged or better, dose finale come with musical typing?
    Thanks for any help.

    MidiKeys does much the same thing - shows a keyboard on screen and lets you use your main keyboard. It's free.

  • Musical Typing problem

    Hello there,
    I just started to use mainstage without a midi controller keyboard. I'm using the musical typing feature to listen to the bank of sounds.
    When i type something like a F#7 chord ("t", "u", "o", ";") i cannot hear the four notes together (when i'm playing them all at once)... it seems there's a problem when i'm trying to mix certain notes with the musical typing keyboard. (Some complicated chords just don't work).
    I have the same problem with Logic 8 . (press caps lock to see the musical typing window).
    I can't see why i can't get that F#7 chord.
    I'm using mac os 10.5.1 with a macbook pro 2,4 ghz.
    thanks

    Computer keyboards aren't designed to respond to multiple keys all pressed at once. I think you'll find the most a standard Mac keyboard will deal with is four keys at once, but even then they won't respond with minimal latency, because they aren't designed for this.
    It's a limitation to how computer keyboards are built and processed, not a Logic/Mainstage issue as such. The caps lock keyboard is a convenience thing - it's not intended to be a suitable interface for playing Rachmaninov on...

  • How do I use my computer keyboard instead of a MIDI keyboard to enter notes? In Garage Band I simply go to View - musical typing but there is no such prompt in Logic Pro 7.

    Ihave always used my Logic Pro 7 program with a MIDI keyboard for note entry. I do not presently have a MIDI keyboard and wish to use my computer keyboard for note entry. I know this is possible but cannot recall the command to set that up. Can anyone refresh my memory? I know that on Garageband on just need to go to view - musical typing but that is not the command in Logic Pro.

    Hi,
    Hit the Caps Lock key.

  • I have updated my iPhone 3s to the latest software. I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available. Help!

    I have updated my iPhone 3Gs to the latest software in an attempt to iron out a problem with a new telephone network provider (Tmobile). I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download from iTunes as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available to re-download although it all shows up on my Mac. The music and app content cannot be restored when I try to restore the phone from the back up I madeon my Mac. Help!

    Working on that now.  I'm just getting frustrated that everytime I run updates for the phone I end up with tech problems that I have to spend time solving as opposed to updates that actually improve my usage.  Now I will once again get to spend hours reloading my phone all for updates that didn't affect my usage in the first place.

  • Musical typing problem ... help?

    Hi,
    I just installed Leopard. I was previously running 10.3 and I had garageband and everything worked fine. I put garageband on the 10.5 and I no longer have musical typing. When i select software instrument it is asking me if i want to save the instrument or discard it. I have tried both options and neither of them allow the typing to work. Does anyone know why this is? Am I looking at a compatibility issue? Garageband is version 3.0.5 i think ... it may be 3.0.4 but i thought the update just went through.
    Thanks in advance for any help

  • After downloading 5.0.1 on my Phone I lost my music! Syncing doesn't help.Store on the phone misses the automatic download for music! What is the solution?

    After downloading 5.0.1 to my Phone, I lost my music on the
    phone. Syncing on different ways didn't help. On the phone , in STORE, misses in Automatic downloads: Music!
    Is that part of the problem?  Or is 5.0.1.not corrt?

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!
