I need help connecting drums with MIDI-USB cable.

I've been trying this for years, but I just don't know what to do or what I need to connect my electronic drums to GarageBand or any other MIDI programs, I pretty much connect the module and my mac with a MIDI to USB cable and nothing seems to recognize or detect any MIDI instruments or anything at all, does anyone know why or how to do this? If I need something or not? Thanks.

So it's this one, I assume?

You might have an old model (pre-2009:)
NOTE: The earlier version of the USM-422 (pre 2009, light blue color) requires drivers for installation. Please visits our Downloads section http://www.hosatech.com/media/document/USM422_OldVersion_Vista_Install.pdf to obtain driver update and installation instructions.

My Mac simply ignores my Iphone when I connect it with the USB cable. WHY? how Can I fix it?

My Mac simply ignores my Iphone when I connect it with the USB cable. WHY? how Can I fix it?
I was able to connect the first time, but after that my computer simply rejects the Iphone and nothing happens. The Iphone doesn't spin or try to reboot even! .
WHAT to do? I got it today.

When you say it ignores your iPhone, do you mean it does not appear in iTunes if you launch iTunes? Or it does not appear in Finder? Or does not appear in iPhoto? Or you get an error message?

I just purchased a HP 8600 OfficeJet Pro, connected it with an USB cable, not responding.

It is an HP OfficeJet Pro 8600,

What operating system? Did you change USB cables? Do not use a USB hub, plug the printer directly into your computer.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there.

TS1369 My ipod, i connect ti with a usb cabble and it always says that it is connected with a firewire and please connect it with a usb cable, What can i do?

i dont know what to do and itunes doesnt recognise it

There is a good chance something is lodged in your iPod's dock connector socket or some of its pins may be bent. I would still try to use compressed air to blow it out just in case and also double checked for any damage.
Perhaps you can try resetting it as well. To do this, toggle the hold switch on and off, then press and hold the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together until the Apple logo appears.

HP 5510 printer - can it be connected with a USB cable

I have a brand new HP5510 that will not connect wirelessly to my Compaq computer. I would like to connect it with a USB cable, but none was provided and there is a adhesive sticker over the USB port on the priunter that graphically says, "No USB"!
I don't care how I connect, I just want it to work!

Hi, I have 10.6.8 and an HP printer so it may be slightly different but I'll give it my best shot:
Go to System Preferences.
Click on "Print & Fax"
Near the top of that page you should see "Print" and "Scan" options. Click "Scan"
A button appears that says "open scanner"
The settings are different between the different scanner models so I'm not sure what the next window will look like, but it should be pretty straightforward from there. It will scan to a JPEG image which you can attach to an email. I hope that helps! Let me know if there's anything ense I can help with.

I need to scan wirelessly from a MAC (OS 1.7 or higher) through Adobe Acrobat Pro X (or higher). Have discovered that all in one printers say they are MAC compatible but will only scan when connected with a USB cable. Would prefer a laser, color, all in

Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c

Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c. I need assistance on connecting these together so I can run a report. I am not an IT person so if someone could dumb it down it would be great.
Thanks,
NBGHealth

Hello,
I assume GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c is some sort of database or data source? If you have an ODBC driver then create or use a System DSN to the database. Then you can create a report using that DSN.
Otherwise I suggest you contact the makers of GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c and ask them how to connect to the database.
Let them know CR is ANSII 92 ODBC 3 compliant.
Thank you

Tried to upgrading ipad 1 from itunes and l guess it did not complete because all I have showing on the ipad is the itunes logo with the usb cable. when l try to connect it to my system, it resquest that a driver be used to install the device. Pls help

Tried to upgrading ipad 1 from itunes and l guess it did not complete the process because all I have showing on the ipad is the itunes logo with the usb cable. When l try to connect it to my system, it resquest that a driver be used to install the device. Please help! How do I restore?

Restoration is relatively simplistic. Here's whatcha do. Plug your ipad in, open itunes, now if itunes doesn't recognize it then you may have a problem, anywho, click on the ipad in the devices interface and go to the info tab, click restore, and it'll be just like it was when it left the factory. To get you data back, it should ask if you would like to use a backup, just select the backup you want and you'll be good to go. That is if you regularly backed up your iPad.

Need help connecting a windows network printer to my Mac (Xerox Phaser 3600) over a windows home network

Need help connecting a windows network printer to my Mac (Xerox Phaser 3600) over a windows home network.
My Mac runs lion and the windows desktop runs Windows XP
I have tried for a few hours or so to connect my mac to this printer over a home network.
For your information it does work when connected directly to my mac using a USB Cable.
If there is no soultion could I have help getting the drivers for a Dell All-in-One Photo 926

In most cases you can connect to the Windows shared printer from the Mac. But there is a dependence on the Mac driver being compatible. For many consumer inkjets, the vendor created driver cannot be used for this type of connection so you need to look at alternative drivers, such as Gutenprint or PrintFab. If you can tell us which brand and model of printer you have shared from Windows then we can answer your question with the preferred procedure on the Mac.

I need help connecting my iPhone and computer together.

I need help connecting my iPhone to computer

Howdy sprinklemk,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Take a look at the iPhone User Guide, it answers your question about how to connect your iPhone to your computer and provides additional information that you may find helpful.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
You may need to connect iPhone to your computer in order to complete activation. Connecting iPhone to your computer also lets you sync photos and other content to iPhone from your computer, using iTunes. See Sync with iTunes on page 18.
To use iPhone with your computer, you need:
An Internet connection for your computer (broadband is recommended)
A Mac or a PC with a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port, and one of the following operating systems:
OS X version 10.6.8 or later
Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
Connect iPhone to your computer. Use the Lightning to USB Cable (iPhone 5 or later) or 30-pin the other device.
Cheers,
-Jason

Deperately need help setting up external midi devices

I need help setting up external midi devices.....Motu828...Midi express...RolandXV3080....Motif rack.......HELP

Theres not really much to setup. Assuming your synths are connected to the MIDI Express already..
In Logic, make a new MIDI track. On the left hand side in the track inspector, among the parameters you'll see an option for MIDI Port and Channel. Just pick which port the track is going to, set the channel and device id and play (And be glad you never had to deal with setting up the old Environment window in Logic 5 and below).
If you really wanna get into it and have all your MIDI ports named after the synth thats connected to it, open up Audio Midi Setup, create a device icon for each synth you have and draw the cables from each device to whatever port its connected to on the midi interface's icon.
Then in Logic everytime you pick your MIDI port on your track, instead of MIDI Port 1, MIDI Port 2, etc.,
it would be labelled XV-3080, Motif Rack, and so on.. I dont think theres anyway to do this within Logic itself (you can change the labels on your audio ins and outs, but not MIDI as far as I can recall)..
If youre talking about having access to patch names and whatnot like Digital Performer and Cubase let you do, Logic doesnt use the xml patch lists everyone else does. The above steps are pretty much all there is to be done as far as MIDI.
Heres my Audio Midi Setup window for reference.
Now when I select MIDI Port 1 in Logic its named MWXT, port 2 is SR-16, etc..

I tried for update but when i saw the screen its showing an arrow with a USB cable towards itunes icon, and now i'm not able to do anything, i also tried to connect ipad through my laptop but no use

That message means that you have to restore the iPad now. There was a problem with the update. So connect the iPad to your computer and restore your iPad.
You can read bout it here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
If that does not work you will need recovery mode. You can read about it here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
Or you can follow these Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad.
