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.

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):

IPhone 6 Plus keyboard list cuts off

Hello everyone, wondering if everyone else is having the same issue as I am where when you attempt to hold down the world icon to view your other keyboards the list cuts off to the side. This only appears to be happening on my 6 Plus as on my 6 everything looks fine. I've restored my device and set up as new and it still appears to be happening.
Here is an image for reference

Hi Vitalicboi,
If you are having keyboard issues in iOS 8, you may want to make sure you have updated to the most recent maintenance update which was just released, then test to see if the issue persists:
iOS 8.0.2

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.

IOS Music, iCloud Match songs cut off

I've ripped about 10 CDs on my Mac. They upload from my iMac to iTunes Match. I can play them and download them on another Mac, but they do not play on my iPhone. I get about a minute, then silence for the balance of the song. All OS and iTunes up to date. I've tried deleting the library on my phone, turning iTunes match off and on on iPhone. I have deleted the songs and re-uploaded them. I need help on this one. Why will they play and download on another Mac, but not my iPhone?

Found a solution!
PROBLEM: Ripped CDs play fine on the source machine, they will stream and download to other machines via iTunes Match, but they either: A) play partially on iOS, then go silent, or B) play and then jump to the next track while displaying the prior track. Very annoying.
WORK AROUNDS: A) Manage Muic without iTunes Match via USB cable or B) Download the tracks... they will still fail in iOS Music app, but they will play in Amazon Cloud Player app.
CAUSE?: I think the mischief begins by adding songs to iTunes by drag-and-drop or by having the iTunes Match scan in iTunes interrupted.
SOLUTION: What worked for me is the following:
1) Back up for safety.
2) Have an empty trash can... that makes it simple.
3) Locate the "Automatically add to iTunes" folder at the root level of your iTunes folder.
4) Delete the tracks from iTunes with the option+delete method and tick the "Remove from iCloud option." Have the tracks put into the trash can.
5) Quit iTunes
6) Open the "Automatically Add..." folder.
7) Move the tracks from the trash can to the "Automatically Add.." folder.
8) Restart iTunes.
9) Let iTunes do it's match thing, which may take a while. Do something else while it's running. Read a book, volunteer at an animal shelter.
<time passes>
10) Check out the new tunes on your iOS device. They play now!
Hooray!

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.
You do not have a virus.

I bought SNSD album the boys in iTunes, but a few of the musics seems to be cut off half way...

I've check the files all of them are about 7mb to 8mb so I assume the files are correct..
someone please help

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

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 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...

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.

Sync failures / songs cut off?!

Bought it used (I KNOW...) sometimes sync fails saying something about 'required file missing, Restore your Ipod, try again'. Does this about every 3-4 syncs.
Playing music in shuffle mode, cut off middle of song, starts the next on. Does this maybe every 20-25 songs. Also shufle seems to have a favorite band. it is shuffling, burt it will play 5-6 in a row from the same artist, then something else, back to original artist, even though they only acount for about 10% of the music. weird huh?
Hard drive seems to make a fair amount of noise when it is looking for the next some and when it cuts one off.
Tried the 3 Rs.
forced to disk mode, synced OK, but still having play / shuffle issues.
Are there any diagnostics to run that will shed some light?
- Tim-A

oh forgot to mention- for me the songs are cut off both on my Ipod as well as on my computer, which makes it a really annoying glitch. For my friend it happens only on his ipod.

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.

HT1296 Music being cut off

I'm having trouble with downloading music to my iPhone. The music downloads fine but some songs will be missing the last 20-30 seconds. After that time passes the next song will begin to play. Not every song is cut off. I've tried deleting the song then trying to download again but it still cuts off the last 20-30 seconds. The music bar moves but no music can be heard. I've deleted all my music, shut my phone off then downloaded the music again but still have the same issue. If I purchase the song from a different album in iTunes the songs fine but I get charged. iCloud still downloads the song missing the last 20-30 seconds. Im lost as to the cause.

If you have album artwork, try deleting it. It worked for me.
