MIDI STUDIO doesn't work on MacBookPro Retina, it crashes with message: MIDI Server can not be opened... help???

I was working for many years with midi software,
since I changes to Mac os x Mountain Lion  nothing works anymore
- SIBELIUS (annotation software) doesnt work properly
- Ivory II doesnt work properly
they all gave me MIDI initilization problem messages.
so I checked the MIDI Configuration, unfortunately MIDI STUDIO crashes with the message that it can't start the MIDI Server,
giving the hint, if i installed lately MIDI Drivers I should deinstall them, try again and if the problem disappeared contact the midi
driver vendor....
well, I didnt instal any new midi drivers explicitely, since this mac os is transported from another mac and the updated to Mac os Mountain Lion.
so that doesnt help...
any body has a solution?
I need to enable MIDI urgently...
I googled a lot and foun in many different forums of different Music/Sound/Recording Software similiar problems, they all had the MacBookPro Retina.

I found a solution for this hanging MIDI Issue after many hours googling.
Probably The MIDI Server from Mac OS cant be started because a driver is not comaptibel with your OS.
This article here helped me:
Source: [http://www.sonosphere.com/MusicSoftware/MacOSX/AudioMIDISetup/]
On Mac Os X there is a folder
\$(HOME)/Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers
I moved the 2 existing drivers to the Desktop.
EmagicUSBMIDIDriver.plugin
Fireface MIDI.plugin
after that it worked. seems like one of the 2 Midid drivers causes problems. I do use a fireface interface but I dont know from where Emagic comes, it is supposed to be from ProLogic, whcih I dont rememeber I ever installed??? may be it is from garageband?
may be the fireface Plugin was not compatibel with mac os Mountain Lion on MacBookPro 15 retina?

  • WD Drive Utility (on WD Thunderbolt Studio) doesn't work after OSX update (10.8.5 or itunes 11.1 - not sure), any help?

    Hi There,
    I have just purchased WD Studio Thunderbolt and installed it on my Mac. The WD DRive Utility software worked fine until I have updated MAC OSX system (consolidated updates of 10.8.5, iTunes 11,1,0 and RAW didigtal cameras 4,09). After this Mac still can see the drive but the WD software cannot. Do you have any idea how to: 1) remove that update OR 2) install RAID using Disk Utility (wil this still work when WD launch update to WD Drive Utility?).
    Thanks in advance,
    Artur

    2 New Ipads (Retina and Mini)(New to Apple) How do I share purchased apps, but others have each act independently? Mini is for the Wife the Ipad4? is for me. I want to use mine at work, etc. She's home with the kids. Can we set them up seperate, but share
    --break--
    So we are entirely new to Apple products. I'm an IT guy, but have always been a windows user.
    So the Ipad with Retina Display is to be mine (and will use it at work for notes, organization, etc)
    The MINI is for the wife.
    But, are we allowed and can we.. buy an app and share that app between both devices? IE. Can I buy a copy of Angry Birds for the House and both Ipad's use that single purchase? and if so, can we still run the Ipads seperate other than to share the apps purchased. IE my facebook and email set up on mine and hers on her ipad mini?
    When I finally find a note taking app I like, can I share it on her ipad, without her having all my work files, etc?
    Thanks for helping out the apple noob. Hoping for a great experience, and anticipate droping $100 in apps the first day.. just don't want to do that twice. If this is against the usage policy, thats unfortunate but good to know. (I mean we can share stuff on PC as long as its in the same household)
    thanks again (explanations or links are fine)

    There are a number of Apple services: iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud, Game center, Find My iPad, etc.
    Now, to share apps, music and books you need to have the same Apple ID:
    iPad's Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID > Your purchasing Apple ID.
    For the other service, your wife should have her own Apple ID.
    All she needs is a valid e-mail address, apply Apple ID below:

    Sorry to hear about this problem. What site are you trying to log in on? Is it a Mozilla site? Usually you don't need to register or sign in to a Mozilla site to use Firefox. Usually you can just go straight to where you want to go.

    Lightroom 5.7.1, Yosemite OS X - Synchronise Folder function doesn't work in Lr.
    Is there a compatibility issue? I can see the folders/images in Finder but when trying to synchronise folders in Lr it does not recognise that there are any images and therefore unable to import to catalogue. Anyone has any idea how to make it work. Thanks a lot.

    Hi Elba,
    Thank you very much for your reply. Not sure, however, that we are talking about the same problem.
    I am trying to perform the same function in Lr that I have been doing for many years in the past and has only been a problem in the last few days (possibly coinciding with upgrading to Yosemite, trying to find out whether that is the problem)
    I am not intending to sync any files with Creative Cloud but only trying to use 'Synchronize Folder' function in Lr. Normally, I would right click on a particular folder in Lr catalogue and click on that function to check that the Lr Catalogue is perfectly matching my drives where the original photos are actually stored.
    The problem that I only started to encounter is that I can see the files on the actual drives but they do not appear in my Lr Catalogue and they are completely invisible to Lr. I simply can not get Lr to recognise them and then import them to catalogue.
    If for example, I export images to Ps and then save and close them, they do appear on my drive but are invisible to Lr and I can't get them imported into the catalogue. Import to folder also not producing any results as they are still invisible to Lr.
    Completely baffled by it. Any idea what could be the reason?
    Kind regards,
    Nik

    When I skype, and take videos, my microphone doesn't work. I know it's on but my friends can't hear me. How do I get it to work?

    I'm sure you have checked, but make sure your mute button on the keyboard is not on , also check that you haven't touched the space bar during a call as that mutes it.
    Check your settings in Skype>Preferences, Audio/Video tab. Here's what mine look like:

    Hey CarolinQc,
    Thanks for the question. The symptoms you are experiencing can result from an Apple ID address that has been changed prior to signing out of all of the services. Before you change the email address associated with your Apple ID, you’ll want to sign out of all services to avoid this. As a fix, you can temporarily change your Apple ID back to the old address:
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5223
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    1. Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    2. Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
              - Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
              - Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
              - Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    3. Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    4. Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.

  • I can`t use apple store. my apple id needs my paswoord, to set the security questions, after I introduce the paswoord it askes for the paswoord again and again! it doesn`t work, and the paswoord is the right one. What can i do?

    i can`t use apple store. my apple id needs my paswoord, to set the security questions, after I introduce the paswoord it askes for the paswoord again and again! it doesn`t work, and the paswoord is the right one. What can i do?

    I have figured out already. Firstly please try:
    1) Installing iBooks on your iPhone via iTunes on PC/MAC
    2) Adjust the time of your iPhone to 6 months ahead (e.g. 2013 May)
    3) Close all apps currently running, clear Safari cache and history, sign out of Apple ID (Settings>iTunes & App Stores), reboot your device
    4) Open iBooks on your iPhone, download any 1 book
    5) System should prompt you to enter 3 security questions
    6) Enter your answer and click "Done" at bottom right part of your input keyboard (Do not press upper right button)
    7) Done!
    I cannot imagine the system has gone so stupid. Apple, please retify the problem ASAP.

    My sleep/wake button doesn't work on my iPhone 4 is there any apps I can download to make it sleep

    There isn't anything you can do about that except to get the sleep/wake button fixed. It is an integral part of the phone and is used for troubleshooting steps as well. Using a device without one is just waiting for trouble. However, if you want to, you can go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn on Assistive Touch. Then to lock the phone, tap on the Assistive touch button, tap on Device, then tap on Lock screen.
