ANY way to get low-latency audio from the *built-in* ports, MBP w/WinXP?
I do music, and sometimes need to run in Windows. Playing a virtual instrument (plug-in) is impossible using my MBP's built-in audio out. The latency is ridiculous (my guess is around 200-300 ms). Imagine playing a note on the keyboard and having the sound come out half a second later. In OSX I can easily get around 6 to 10ms.
I'm using boot camp 2.1 drivers, WinXP SP2. I believe I have the Realtek card in my MBP (those are the drivers I see when i go into the Windows Sound CP). I downloaded ASIO4ALL and tried wrapping the Realtek driver with it, no joy.
I have an external audio interface -- an old Emagic EMI 26. The latency is negligible using this. I would use it full-time, but it lives in a rack for when I do gigs. Sometimes I'm at home and just want to use headphones with my built-in audio jack. I'm hoping there's a solution out there. TIA!
OK, I just reinstalled Windows (XP, SP2 BTW), Bidule and ASIO4ALL. You're correct about me being able to choose the output. Here is what I see when I look at the available audio devices in Bidule:
[]Duplex
----->ASIO:
--------->AIO4ALL v2(duplex)
[]Output
----->MME:
--------->Microsoft Sound Mapper
--------->Realtek HD Audio
----->Windows DirectSound:
--------->Primary Sound Driver
--------->Realtek HD Audio output_1
As you can see, nothing here about WDM or kernel streaming. I set the buffers to 128 samples in Bidule AND ASIO4ALL, and when I choose ASIO4ALL as the output, I get a small info pane that says this:
Bidule runs with :128 samples (2.90249 ms) sized blocks
this driver runs with:
input: 128 samples (2.90249 ms) -> match
output:128 samples (2.90249 ms) -> match
PERFECT SETTINGS!
When I play my midi keyboard, the sound is crystal-clear, but still comes out about 250-400ms after I press the key!!
I don't think Bidule is introducing the additional latency. When I used it with my EMI 26 audio interface, the latency was negligible (haven't reinstalled the EMI driver yet). Only with my MBP's built-in audio does it suffer.
Thanks for the help. I'm still curious about what WDM nd kernel streaming is, and how it relates to the choices I'm seeing in Bidule.

my computer crashed and lost my itunes, now i have a new computer...is there any way to get my music back from my account
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, not good, then you can redownload some purchases in some countries.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -

Is there any way to get my iPhone 4S from Verizon to work in Hong Kong? So far it only says cannot activate cellular network. I have cleared all settings, turned off CDMA...etc and still nothing.
If you are there now, there is nothing you can do. Before going you should have talked with Verizon, they have international service programs they can activate, but it has to be before going.

I have all the requirements except8gb of available space. my mac only has 4gb capacity.is there any way to get a smaller version of the mavericks software?
That refers to free disk space, not RAM. If your computer has 4GB of RAM, that's enough. If it only has 4GB of free disk space, you need to delete content from the internal drive; for best results, free up at least 20GB.

I was burning an audo book to CD. It was six CDs long. After the fitth CD I inserted one that was defective and itunes just ended, as though
the burning had been completed. Now I have five of the six CDs.
1) Why did it do this instead of telling me I had a bad disk or something?
2) Is there any way to get it to re-burn just the last disk instead of having to re-burn all of them?sure pretty simple. make a backup of your current settings

then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
then import pics to computer

you may need to save pics to camera roll first
then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes

I guess I didn't register it to this account since it's not there. I'm going to check my other emails to see if maybe I registered it to a different account and I'm going to keep looking for the cd. But is there any hope of getting my programs from one laptop to my new one?

Is there any way to get an older version of the iTunes Library .xml backup file?
I turned my computer on today and my entire library was gone! (Files, thankfully, still available) I tried to restore from the .xml file, but the file was already updated with the new/empty iTunes before I could restore my original one. Is there anyway to get an older version of that .xml file back? PLEASE HELP!
Not from the store no, only the current version is available there - the only way is if you yourself have a previous version of it on, for example, a backup

Is there any way to retrieve deleted texts messages from the IPhone 5C?
I accidentally deleted the wrong texts, and was wondering if there was a way Verizon, or the IPhone could recover the deleted messages...
Unfortunately, no, not unless you had them backed up somewhere (like with bitpim software). Once the texts are deleted from the phone, they're gone.
