Logic set up assistant, where is it in logic 8

where is logic set up assistant in logic 8, it was in logic 7, and i found it usefull, where can i find it in logic 8 ?, please help, thanks

Hi there,
It doesn't exist any more. Although it might have helped with setting up MIDI devices, it never really pressed my buttons for that. The only real use for me was in automatically creating the environment and arrange page the way I wanted it.
in Logic 8, you can create new tracks and Logic will automatically create them in the Environment for you. That was a neat way of solving the problem. Other things such as MIDI instruments was a bit facile and pretty much any MIDI instrument plays straight away nowadays. Likewise selecting I/Os, mono/stereo and so on are pretty easy to do and the default setup for Logic is clever enough not to leave you stranded.
However, I agree that there are many, many things that you might want to set in Logic both at the program level and at the song level. However, Apple seem to have taken the view that a setup wizard to ask about all the settings in Preferences and Song Settings would be madness and the average newbie wouldn't understand many of them in any case.
What part of the Setup Assistant would you like to see in place?

HP C3180 will not show up on printer list or set up assistant??

When I try to add my new HP C3180 all in one printer, it will not show up on the printer list, or in HP set up assistant, and searches for new drivers fails to bring up any printers. My G4 does not seem to recognize the C3180 printer. Looked for updates to software and there are none. HP says I have the latest software. Uninstalled, and reinstalled HP software several times, still will not show up on the add printer list so I am not able to configure it. Previous Deskjet 970CXI printer is also missing which is OK if C3180 would show up. Anyone with any ideas? Thanks.

If you are unable to print wirelessly, the comments below enabled me to print via my Airport Extreme. Just go to the "Print & Fax" system preferences, and 'add' a printer, then follow these instructions:
-You can print using bonjour in a roundabout way. Wireless printing will work if you select "hp photosmart p1000 g-print beta" in the printer browser under the "print using" option in the print and fax control panel. If you choose this option, the computer will think it's hooked up to a p1000. So it will work with airport express!
This advice was in the customer reviews section of the Apple Store for this printer, where a lot of people were complaining that they couldn't print wirelessly.

Wierd behavior on Set Up Assistant the last time I installed OSX...

Good Evening,
One week ago, I installed OSX (10.6.3) on my MacBook Pro. Installation went normally. Following the intro OSX Welcome video (the one with the word welcome in different languages), as expected, the first dialog screen of the set up assistant comes on (the one that ask on which country you have), as you may remember at the same time that screen appears, the Snow Leopard "Aurora" background appears in a fade in effect. Here's where my question comes, the last time I installed OSX, the "Aurora" background started appearing with the fade in effect transition but it was not smooth. In other words, the background appeared in a "cut" fashion but then continued it's smooth transition.
Should I be worried?, as far as I am using my MacBook Pro it has been working ok.
Thank You...

Thinking of using Set Up Assistant with your new iMac...

The story so far...
The set up assistant was a nightmare, I plugged the iMac in, switched it on and straight away was asked if I would like to transfer information from another mac (about 40Gb), at this point I was thinking this is great I'll transfer everything and be up and running in about four hours. I opted to transfer all four options (User Accounts, Network Settings, Applications Folder and Files and Folders) clicked go and sat back believing that in the stated 3 hours and 20 minutes I would be up and running. One and a half hours into the transfer and it's flown through everything and it's telling me 'Less than a minute remaining' (the excitement is really building now). 45 minutes later and it's still saying 'Less than a minute remaining' so I decided to call India, sorry I mean AppleCare, and was told that I should give it another hour as the
original time stated was over three hours so I gave it another two hours and 45 minutes (five hours in total) and I was still faced with the 'Less than a minute remaining'. It's time to call India again. I quoted the case number from the first call and 30 minutes later was still none the wiser except I was told how to get out of the transfer screen (just hold the power button for a couple of seconds) and that I should never try transferring Applications. I asked why I was given the option to transfer Applications if it's not advisable to do it and wasn't give any sort of reasonable answer.
During the second call I was taken through the registration process (without using the transfer option) and once I was up and running I found that some of my files had been transfered but I wasn't sure how much. I decided to re-install the OS from the disc's and once I had started doing this I realised that the disc's were going to install over the top of the existing OS but I didn't want to stop the process just in case I screwed things up even more. We decide to go out for something to eat and come back to it later hopefully with a clearer head (I'd been at this for six hours now). When we get back I re-install for the second time but this time used the 'Erase and Install' option and this only takes about an hour. It also takes you right back to the welcome screen and I choose to transfer from another mac again but uncheck
the Applications option. Set up assistant works brilliantly this time and all I have to do is download things like Acrobat, Messenger, etc. Everything is on there that I wanted so when I open Acrobat for the first time all my settings are in there the same is true with everything else I download. It's very useful having the PowerBook next to the iMac to cross check what I need. I finish at 1:30am, what a day.
I am currently writing this on the PowerBook not because of any problems with the iMac but because I can't get the wife off of it now. Out of interest the 500Gb hard drive originally read 465Gb available and once everything was on the iMac there was 425.18Gb available compared to the 1.44Gb available on the PowerBook. Mmmmm, lots of space to play with.

As long as you don't try and take your app's across you should be OK. I think the Apple app's are OK to transfer, it's just the 'third party' app's apparently Adobe is a classic case. They don't store thing's where the mac would expect to find them so even if you can get them across you end up re-installing anyway.
Good luck and if you can please post to let us know how you get on.

After Installing Leopard, Stock on Aplication Set up Assistant!!!

Everything went smooth with the install, but after reboot I'm stock with the Aplication Set up assistant, I filled in the blanks and when click on done. The box reappears. It wont let me shut down/restart from the apple menu. Just by holding the power key and same box appears again...Please HELP!!!

I've got to ask this question because in all of the years I have used Apples and Macs, I didn't know you could schedule a start up.
Where in System Preferences do you do that? I didn't see an icon for start ups other than startup disk and didn't find anything there.

NanoKontrol. Logic, setting up CCs

i just got a NanoKontrol, it was cheap, but maybe that was the mistake...
Anyway, it seems to work, as far as factory settings go.
Now I am in the Nano Kontrol editor and I set a knob to a specific CC that I want to be able to record. After sending the new settings and scene to the Nano, I start Logic. The knob refuses to do the assigned action, instead it is still in factory mode (Even after rebooting, blabla).
How do you set up individual CCs for the NanoKontrol and how can you set it up to where it is not for a specific channel strip, but so that one knob influences a specific CC in any software instrument channel strip that I have selected?
I'd be very grateful for some help. But don't even start with the environment without step by babystep...

if i understand this right, i can uninstall the plugin and just assign my settings in the kontrol editor and then logic will follow those?
So you are using the plugin? Yes, if you want to assign things manually, remove the plugin.
how does logic know that there is a usb device that wants to send cc messages?
Because the system still knows there is a USB midi device there and will receive incoming MIDI from it. This is nothing to do with Logic's specific programming for a particular type of control surface, which is what the plugin provides.
i played around with the controller assignment window in logic. it is a total mes. nothing works, the assignments and values go all over the place and most settings in there sound cryptic and i simply cannot figure out how to work this.
Remove the plugin. Start Logic. Open up, say a plugin. Press command-L to enter learn mode. Twidle a plugin parameter. Move the CC knob. Command-L to leave learn mode when you've assigned what you want. Very simple.
Occasionaly you might need to tweak how a knob is interpreted in the control assignments window, but other than that it should be fairly automatic.
i need something that says "i use fader number x" and want to influence "cc x on current active channels strip".
Easy enough, set the type to current strip, the parameter you are controlling is displayed there.
but instead there is nonsense like "B0 01 Lo7" and the like...
That's just showing you the exact MIDI message that was learnt - ie the one sent from your controller. This is useful info.
I rather not touch that window at all.
Command-L, no controller assignments window necessary.
I would love to set everything in the kontrol editor, make logic recognize this as a device without the need of tweaking it again...
You can only set what CC's the nano sends in the editor. To actually make those CC's do something in Logic, you have to tell Logic what you want them to do - you do that via the controller assignments.
If you don't want to deal with all this learning commands hassle, either stick to the default handling the plugin gives you, or get a proper control surface like a Mackie Control or Euphonix Artist.
Otherwise, with all these small generic knob boxes, you have to assign things to make it do what you want. It's the nature of the beast, I'm afraid.

After downloading I was entering my password for iCloud and clicked on forgot....now it's stuck and will not shutdown. When I try to shut down it says Set up Assistant cancelled shutdown. This has been going on for 5 hrs plus...any ideas?

MAcbook is stuck and will not shutdown following download of X Mavericks software. Setup assistant is stuck and will not allow the MacBook Air to shutdown. It's been doing this for over 5 hours......any ideas?

Hi there—
This reply doesn't seem to take into account the query.
Please help?
The computer is completely unresponsive and won't shut down or turn off. It is stuck in Set Up Assistant after trying to sign in to AppleID.
Attempting to shut down or restart produces the following dialogue:
"The application Set Up Assistant has cancelled shut down.
To try shutting down again, quit Setup Assistant and click Try Again."
HOWEVER it is impossible to quick Set Up Assistant— the icon is completely unresponsive even to force quit, right click or anything.
I've managed to get into being able to see Dashboard and at the top Desktop and the dock below. But I can't click on anything from there. So it seems it is not the whole computer. Just set-up assistant.
Please help??
Thank you

Help! -Itunes wont sync, Set-Up Assistant pops up, Cant see iPod contents..

I have several problems happening at once - please help if you can!
When I connect to iTunes, my iPod starts to sync, but then I get an error message "Cannot synchronize ----'s iPod. Unknown Error (-48)"
It then jumps straight to the Set Up Assistant, as if its the first time I've connected my iPod! (I've had it for a year now). I'm too scared to go through that option in case it wipes the music/video off my iPod.
After all this, my iPod's name Imine) is actually visible in the left side panel of iTunes - BUT, i cant see any of the contents ie songs, video etc.
Funny thing is, I can still load songs & video onto the iPod, and it synchronizes and saves. But, I just cant see anything thats on the iPod (meaning I cant edit or delete, which is annoying), as iTunes only recognizes it as a brand new ipod.
So, what can I do?
I've tried to reset the Ipod, and reloaded iTunes. I've even used an earlier version of iTunes on a different computer and the exact same thing happens there (which leads me to believe somehting happened to the iPod).
I dont want to restore the iPod - I have nearly filled the 160GB capacity and I simply cannot back it up anywhere as no computer i have has enough memory and all my original music is overseas at home.
Why is itunes not recognising the ipod, but it still saves data on it??? How can I bypass the Set Up assistant?? (its irritating).
Please help!!
JJ LA

I am also having the same problem. This is my second ipod (I've added a shuffle and already had a nano). The nano works fine. When I connect the shuffle, it is grayed out in the left pane. The main view only shows two tabs, Settings and Contents. It doesn't seem to matter how I have the syncing setup.

HT4796 after transfering data froAm my pc to mac using windows migration assist, where do the data go to on my mac please?

after transfering data froAm my pc to mac using windows migration assist, where do the data go to on my mac please?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
By default, Migration Assistant creates a new user account where it puts all the transferred data. Just go to  > Log Out, and log in the new user that Migration Assistant has created, so you will be able to access to the transferred data.
If you want to merge the data into the first user account, use the Shared folder (it's in /Users/Shared) to put the transferred files there, and then, on the first user, go to the Shared folder and put all the data in the folders you want

Avoid repeating same logic in 'select' and 'where' clauses?

I'll preface by saying I'm self-taught and have only been fiddling with SQL for a couple of months, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. I have a query written to pull out customers who are configured to have their products stored at the wrong warehouse, according to the first 3 digits of the zip code. Here is an extremely simplified version of a query I'm trying to run:
select custno, custbuy_zip_cd, custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd as Warehouse,
case when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('839','848') then '20'
when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('590','591') then '33'
end as StdWhse
from customers
where case when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('839','848') then '20'
when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('590','591') then '33'
end <> custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd
or (case when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('839','848') then '20'
when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('590','591') then '33'
end is not null and custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd is null)
Now, the query works, but it seems overly convoluted and feels like there must be a way to make it simpler and faster. I'm using the same 'case when' 3 times. Originally, I had thought I could use the aliases from the 'select' clause in the 'where' clause, which would simplify things:
select custno, custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd as Warehouse,
case when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('839','848') then '20'
when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('590','591') then '33'
end as StdWhse
from customers
where StdWhse <> custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd
or (StdWhse is not null and custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd is null)
I then found out that that caused 'invalid identifier' errors. My first attempt at a solution was to use a subquery in the 'from' clause, but that ran the 'case when' on every single customer instead of the small subset, so it wound up taking much longer even though it looked neater. Any tips on how to clean up that first query to make it run faster?
this is Oracle 11i, I believe. As a side note, I don't have write access to the database.

Thanks for all the tips so far - still going through them. You all respond fast! Sorry about using double angle brackets for != and not using code tags, I'll make sure to format my posts properly going forward. I think the double angle brackets messed up the appearance of my original queries a little. Here's how I probably should have pasted my first query in my first post:
select custno, custbuy_zip_cd, custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd as Warehouse,
    case when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('839','848') then '20'
        when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('590','591') then '33'
    end as StdWhse
from customers
where case when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('839','848') then '20'
        when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('590','591') then '33'
    end != custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd
    or (case when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('839','848') then '20'
        when substr(custbuy_zip_cd,1,3) in ('590','591') then '33'
    end is not null and custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd is null)The almost unanimous opinion seems to be that I should use a subquery in one way or another, but the problem remains that the only significant logic to narrow down the results is the logic that matches the 'case when' results (which are what the warehouse number should be, based on the zip code) to the current warehouse number. Therefore, it seems like any subquery is going to return my entire list of 600k customers, and take a much longer time than my original (messy) query. At least it has in the test runs I created based on
Satyaki's and Peter's examples. The query based on my original example takes about 2.5 minutes, and the subquery examples take about 5+ even though they look cleaner.
to clarify what the query is trying to accomplish, I want it to pull any records where the warehouse number does not equal the correct warehouse number based on zip code (or if the warehouse number is null when it shouldn't be).
I'll try to create some sample data and sample results. Customers table:
custno   custbuy_zip_cd custbuy_prim_ship_loc_cd
1        59024           20
2        59024           33desired results:
custno   custbuy_zip_cd   warehouse   StdWhse
1        59024            20          33If I could create a table to hold the standard warehouses to join on, the whole thing would be much easier. The full version of the query really has hundreds of zip code prefixes and 5 different warehouses and each account has 4 alternate warehouses as well. However, I'm stuck with read only access so everything has to go right in the query. It wouldn't be the end of the world to just stick with my original query since it's not like it takes hours, and I'll only be running it weekly. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't some other solution that wasn't just cleaner but was also faster.

Where is the SAP logic to process the BDCDATA?

Hi, expert.
Where is the SAP logic to process the BDCDATA that we passed on CALL TRANSACTION 'VA01' using bdcdata mode.....?
On the other words, can I see the SAP logic to understand how SAP process 'CALL TRANSACTION' statement?
Thanks.

Martin,
thanks for the reply.
I understand 'CALL TRANSACTION' works, SAP propagates the value to VA01 screen based on the records we built on the BDCDATA internal table.
For example, we are going to create order with 5 line items. However, the 1st line itme is okey, but 2nd line itme we hit a material error, so BDC stopped. We have requirement that want to remove 2nd line item and want BDC continue to process for 3rd, 4th, 5th line items. User can run CALL TRANSACTION with mode 'E'. So BDC will stop when hit error. at this point user can delete item use SAP 'delete' icon. But the problem is BDC still have leftover records for 2nd item. I hope there is way to locate BDCrecords and in the userexit to remove the leftover BDC records for 2nd item. Then BDC can continue to process 3rd item.... That is why I try to find how SAP logic behind 'CALL TRANSACTION' and hoping to locate where is the SAP logic that process BDCDATA record one by one.... hence I can think about how to cleanup/delete leftover BDC records for 2nd line item.
I put breakpoint at 'CALL TRANSACTION' statement and then click 'single step'. But next step, it immediately stop in the VA01 main program 'SAPMV45A' module transaktion_init. I was hopping the next step will stop in the SAP program that I can see it handles/loops BDCDATA... But not.

Can you tell me what is a pass code for re setting program and where can I find it?

For resetting what program? What are you trying to do? When you have a problem, please provide enough info to answer.

Migration Assistant/ Set-up Assistant/ Copy and Paste/ Other?

Hello Wise Ones,
I have just installed a new HD and am wondering how to transfer my old files, a sparsebundle/image, from an external HD to this brand spanking new HD.
For context,
1) Acquired an external HD.
2) Saved a File Vaulted account onto that HD (Western Digital HD; used WD Smartware).
3) Upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard.
4) Time Machine backs up the information of Guest account but not the main account, the Filevaulted account.
5) Rigamarole follows, but sparsebundle/image becomes mountable and files accessible.
6) Internal HD fails.
7) New Internal HD installed just yesterday.
8) Migration Assistant restores the Guest account files. But the sparsebundle/image is not an option.
So, as it stands now I have two accounts on the computer: the newly created account and the migrated old (Guest) account. I seem to have all of the programs I think I should have. But, as you might imagine, my Documents, Movies. Pictures etc folders are empty.
The external HD shows me all of my created files. So, if need be I can just copy and paste those Documents, Movies, Pictures, Desktop folders, yes? (Alas, Migration Assistant doesn't -- um, pickup, recognize -- that sparsebundle/image.)
But what of the inner workings? Most notably, what of a Library folder. I see it there on my sparsebundle/image. It appears to be on the same tier as the Documents, Desktop, Movies folders. Meaning, I'm guessing that this Library folder is personal to this account, not to the computer as a whole. Therefore, if I select my account found on the new HD and find its Library folder, and then paste over it with this sparsebundle/image Library folder then all will be okay? Thus I'll have all of my mail messages/inboxes and all of my Safari Bookmarks and other goodies?
So, um, the best way to proceed? Migration Assistant; Set-up Assistant; Copy/Paste; or other?
Thanks again for your insights and patience.
Lex
P.S. Would it matter that the the sparsebundle/image folder has an account name that is different than the name for this new drive and this new personal account? So, damaged HD was named Lexy. But sparsebundle/image account has the name Lex. With this new HD the HD is named, Smith and the personal account is named LexSmith.

Not sure about the File Vault password protected thing is the problem with migrating. If you have room on the drive, try opening up the image and copy the user account from the image file straight to the drive itself, thereby eliminating the use of the image. Then try the migration.
Other than that, I can only suggest manually copying the files from each folder to your new user folder.
If it's your whole user account and it's a different name than the user account on the new computer, you might try to copy the whole user account over to the user folder and then see if you can switch user to that account.
