AU plug-in, in Components folder, not in GarageBand

I've been searching through forums for an answer to this, but so far, no luck:
I've installed MOTU Symphonic Instrument v1.1.3, which is a stand-alone app as well as an AU plug-in. The plug-in is now in Library>Audio>Plug-ins>Components, but in GarageBand 3.0.4 it does not show up in the Generator pop-up list in Track Info for software instrument.
However, MOTU Ethno Instrument, which I have also installed, DOES show up and does function properly when selected.
To compund the mystery, both Symphonic Instrument and Ethno Instrument are functioning as plug-ins in Logic Express 7.
MOTU support says:
"Since the MSI AU is working in Logic Express, the problem is specific to GarageBand. Most AU hosts have a way of forcing re-examination of your installed AU plug-ins. Check the GarageBand documentation for instructions on how to do this."
I can find no reference anywhere as to how to get GarageBand to re-scan for plug-ins.
I've tried re-installing the MOTU plug-in, both before and after upgrading from GB3.0 to GB3.0.4. I have also repaired permissions with disk utility.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you, X
Fortunately, MOTU support sent a follow-up email with instructions as to how to force GB to rescan for plug-ins. I had tried just trashing preferences files from the Preferences folder but that didn't help. The appropriate file is in the caches folder.
For the benefit of anybody who might be having a similar problem, here's MOTU's instuctions:
Here's the file you need you to remove to get GarageBand to rescan the AU plug-ins:
/Users/your_username/Library/Caches/GarageBand/com.apple.GarageBandAUs.plist
Quit GarageBand, and drag com.apple.GarageBandAUs.plist to the trash. When you launch GarageBand again, your AU plug-ins should be rescanned.
This did the trick.

Flex components is not showing up after deploying to web server

Hello,
I am working in flex builder 2.0 to develop a simple
application.
I am getting some issues around custom components.
My directory structure is as follows:
Project_Folder-
|-Components
|-bin
|-assets
|-Application.mxml
I put all my custom components in Components folder.
I have a custom component in there and the application.mxml
is using
it.
the code is somthign like this:
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute" xmlns:test="Components.*"
backgroundGradientColors="[#000000, #000000]">
<test:baseLayer horizontalCenter="0" top="0"/>
</mx:Application>
Here base layer is the custom component.
My problem is when i ran it it is workign fine, but when I am
deploying it in the apache server teh Custom components are
not
showing up. I copied all contents of the bin folder to my web
server
root.
I am not sure if it will need some extra task to deploy the
custom
component?
I thought since it is in the same project the swf file
already packed
with the custom components.
Please can anyone help me to clarify that?
thank you,

Thanks, this makes sense. Can you tell me how I upload the whole scripts
folder to justhost.com? When I try to select the folder at upload it opens
the folder as if I should then select a single file ( like the
AC_RunActiveContent.js file that is in the folder) So that is what I did.
Which makes sense that the path is now broken for the flash cause it is not
in the folder anymore. In other words what I don't understand is how to get
my scripts folder and its contents as a whole uploaded to the Justhost.com.
Thanks your email has been very helpful!
10/14/09 12:32 [email protected]
I did finally figure out the problem.
In my case, I was putting all of my files directly into justhost.com with no
regard for the way the files were classified in the original folders used to
build my site. In other words, you can't just put AC_RunActiveContent.js into
justhost.com randomly and expect that your Flash will work.
Instead, you have to create a Scripts folder and then put
AC_RunActiveContent.js within the scripts folder. This sets up the paths to
function the way they were originally created on your Dreamweaver document (or
whatever the html editor you may happen to be using).
Whether dealing with Flash or images, the main thing to remember is that you
have to mirror the structure of your original folders/files exactly.
So try creating a folder called Scripts, then place the AC_RunActiveContent.js
file inside of this Scripts folder, and see if that works. I assume the foder
AC_RunActiveContent.js is within Scripts, but if it called something
different, just copy the name (exactly), and put AC-RunActiveContet inside of
it.
I hope this helps,

LR 3.3 ignores plug-ins in Modules folder on Mac

Hello,
I put my plug-in in /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Modules as its described in docs but Lightroom ignores it. Actually it ignores any plug-ins in this folder. I can add a plug-in from this folder manually and it'll work but i need LR to do this automatically. Can i do anything to help LR recognize my plug-in or may be i need to put my plug-in to some other place?
Thanks.

Hello,
We are looking for a developer who is familliar with developing a plugin for Lightroom 3.
We know the SDK & API for Lightroom is a bit unique, and we want to work with someone who either has developed for Lightroom already, or someone very familiar with the process.
We would like a plug in for Lightroom 3 that creates web photo galleries. We are not looking for something too difficult! In fact, many plugins already exist, but none do exactly what we need. So, we need a custom one designed for us.
The plug in should look like and work like the photo gallery plug ins already available for Lightroom, such as the standard HTML web galleries Lightroom 3 has standard, as well as the Airtight Simpleviewer plugin. Both of these have their advantages and disadvantages. But both are fairly flexible in what they offer, and the user can make galleries that look and behave in many ways.
Our plug in needs to avoid flash all together. We like J Query code such as this one:
http://www.twospy.com/galleriffic/example-2.html
The galleries should have a download option that lets the viewer download a low res, med res, or high res file.
The galleries need a search field where users can search for key words or metadata.
This is the basic idea. We would like to develop this project right away. Please contact us.
Thank you,

Managing files in CQ components folder...

Hi,
I am a newbee in CQ development.
I start to develope many components in "components" folder.
Now, the folder has too many files inside and I realized that I need to sort related components and put them in a folder.
If I create a folder under the "components" and put some files under this folder, would the components still work?
If not, what's the best practice manage many components files under "components" folder?

The components still work even if you place them under a new folder.
Answering the other question , please refer forms folder in /libs/components node .
This might give you an insight on how to use the components and the best practices.

How can I delete plug-ins that I do not want then anymore?

how can I delete plug-ins that I do not use anymore?

Uninstall them by deleting them from the Library:
The plug-ins usually are installed in the Applications Support Folder -> Aperture -> Plug-Ins, either in your your User Library or in the System Library:
your home folder/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins/
/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins/

Help I Deleted Components Folder

Please help me how can I get my plugins back my components folder got deleted by mistake?

Well... not really. The Mac filesystem doesn't work in quite the same way as Windows, so file undeletes are largely unsuccessful.
I've tried in the past with a variety of tools, without a huge amount of success.
There are some commercial utilities that claim to do it, for instance:
http://subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=1
But I tried the demos of these things in the past, and wasn't impressed (but hey, they might work for you.)
Like I say, if it's priceless data, you might have to pay a file recovery specialist to get it back. In your case, you just need to reinstall your plugins, it's not irreplaceable data.

AE CS6 won't export MP4. "Some of the required components could not be found."

After Effects CS6 (from Production Premium) running on 64-bit Windows 7 Enterprise SP1.
Processor: Intel Core i7-3930K CPU @ 3.20GHz
AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series video card
64 Gb Corsair Ram (DDR3)
Quicktime 7.7.4 Installed
Currently attempting to export a short (2 second) video based on the predefined "H.264" preset with the only alterations being that I want the VBR 1 Pass to target 3.5Mbs (though I've changed this with no difference in outcome) and I want the video to multiplex as MP4. I immediatley get the error prompt: "Some of the required components could not be found."
*Just tried using the 3GPP multiplexer and received the same error message. If I try to use the MPEG4 format I get an "unknown exception" error.*
I've exported literally hundreds of items as H.264 with a MP4 multiplexer on this machine with current hardware and software. And now...no dice. After Effects boots correctly (or at least it seems that way) though I think it takes a little longer than it used to (not sure if the system cache just needs to be rebuilt).
After Effects CS6 has all available Adobe updates. Quicktime 7.7.4 is also up-to-date. Video Card driver is up-to-date.
What could be going on? I'd prefer to skip re-installing this program. I've had to do this numerous times already with this suite throughout the past 12 months; really getting sick of the down-time during reinstall. Worth noting that I have closed the program, closed all programs, restarted computer multiple times.
I am currently going through my Adobe program files for After Effects. I am specifically looking through the 'Support Files' directory. A couple interesting things: 1. My 'MediaIO->Codecs' directory was last updated on 11/8/2013 (perhaps an AE update??) but each of the files within said directory have a last modified date of late September. Did something get wrongfully deleted in the hypothetical update? 2. In 'Media Core plugins->Common' I again have a last modified date of 11/8/2013, but again each of my files within the common directory were last modified late September. I have many expected .prm files but NO ImporterMPEG4.prm; should I have a MPEG4 specific importer file, or does the MPEG importer file do all of the work. Also, I have no ExporterMP4 (or anything of the MPEG, MPEG2, MPEG4 flavor). Should I have one of these?
Don't know if this last paragraph helps at all but my fingers are crossed.

Thanks Katrina for all your help.
I talked to an Apple tech support person. Actually, my call had to be elevated to the next support level. Joy. You are correct, there are multiple listings of the files in the error report even though there is only one copy.
The support person had me do a few things. Here is what eventually seems to fix things:
1) For the mp3's that DID copy but were listed as not found... Some files were duplicated so deleting the duplicate with the "!" was an easy fix. I found one file that I could search by song name in iTunes but could not find it by song name search on the iPod. Looking at the iPod playlist I found the file listed by the filename (not song name) and the file played fine. Then in iTunes I double clicked on the song name ("!" showing) and selected locate. I then pointed to the location on the NAS. Resync and now the name of the song on the iPod changed from filename to song name. The file was no longer listed in the error report.
2) For the m4a files that didn't sync... the problem songs appeared three times in a search in iTunes. Two of the listings showed the "!" next to the name. I deleted these two for each song that didn't sync and all transferred fine afterward.
Perhaps there is an issue with ID3 tags since I use filenames more than tags in organization. Still, I would think that iTunes would not get so confused or be a little more friendly with its errors, especially considering how long its been around.
Thanks again for your help. Looks like I have a manual way to correct this issue.

Apple, please fix this bug. Sending scanned images to "Pictures" is not what I want nor what I was able to do in every previous operation system. I want to save all scanned items in a specific folder - NOT "PICTURES" Please fix this bug NOW!

Importing only songs to music folder, NOT videos?

OK, so here's my problem... I have probably 25+ gig's of Movies, and only have about 15 GB's of space left on my laptop. (I have a LOT of music, TV shows, etc...)
I would like to know if there is a way to get iTunes to import music ONLY into the iTunes music folder, and leave videos and such at their source (a 500GB external drive).
I obviously could copy the music manually, but that means it is no longer organized in the iTunes folder.

Note - You don't need to copy them to the HD first,
as btabz suggested.
There are different ways to import music. You can copy them (the music files) onto the HD wherever you want and then import into iTunes, or have iTunes import directly off the DVD and put the files in the iTunes Music Folder. Both ways get the music into iTunes and stored on your HD. It depends if you want the music in the iTunes Music folder or not. With the way I suggested, the music is placed where you want, instead of having iTunes put it where it wants.
Both ways will work fine though.

Is there a way to always save as folder, not session file

Is there a way to make Logic X always default to saving as a folder, not a project file?
I am using Logic X for production and Pro Tools for vocal tracking/mixing. This is a great solution for me, and while I'm sure being able to save a logic session as one file is great for others, I need it to not be an option if possible.
It is essential for my workflow that I use the folder version so I can keep bounces as well as the stems I export within the one folder. However, my clients often just hit save without looking, then when they go to bounce they have to save the bounce somewhere else, and if they don't name the bounce the same as the logic session, I have to back-track and open every session to see if it is the one I am looking for or not.
Furthermore, Logic X does not remember my preference of saving to folder. If I could select it once and it would stay the same, no one would change it but it seems there is a bug that after a certain amount of time, or if the computer dies or is restarted, the preference is reset to project file.
Maybe I'm the only guy with this problem as I can't seem to find any other threads on it, but if anyone has anything to say here, it is greatly appreciated.

Furthermore, Logic X does not remember my preference of saving to folder.
It saves that setting for me...... so I assume you have a permissions or prefs issue of some kind going on where that status is not being saved..
Try first deleting Logic's prefs and see if that fixes things....
Delete the user preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
Press the Go button.
Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove ~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
Restart the computer.
If not then something else is causing the issue on your system.

Moved Music to New Hard Drive - Required folder not found??? pls help

Hello
I have recently purchased a new external hard drive as my crappy Dell was full to the brim with music.
I have moved all my music files over to the hard drive and re installed itunes.
Now when i drag my music folder into the itunes library it updates but the shortly after an error message occurs that says:-
'Itunes Libray music file cannot be saved. Required folder not found'
Previously i have saved my itunes folder within my music folder?.
Now everytime i close down itunes all my music has gone from it!??
Any suggestions....sorry if being really ignorant..not too profficient on computers..
Thanks in advance.

I think itunes by default looks inside you my music folder. In the itunes preferences screen there is an option to select a new folder to your library. Change the path to the music folder on your external drive. Make sure to always have the drive turned on before launching itunes though.
You may also be able to replace the my music folder with a shortcut to the music folder on the external drive. This behavior may not work in windows though so I'm not sure.

Decided to update iphone 4 to ios 5.1 and mid update it froze and the screen is black. Phone does not respond to any combinations of home and power buttons, when plugged into computer it does not see it is plugged in, any ideas?

Decided to update iphone 4 to ios 5.1 and mid update it froze and the screen is black. Phone does not respond to any combinations of home and power buttons, when plugged into computer it does not see it is plugged in so I cannot restore or anything. Looks like the screen is on it's just unresponsive and black obviously. Has anyone had this problem? I was updating via wifi right in front of my router and my computer.

Spoke to a "senior advisor" in the Apple TV department. Her suggestions: change channel in router to minimize/eliminate wifi interference from other users; move router away from any metal - i.e., DVD player, phone modem, etc.; keep router away from wireless 2.4 gH phones, which are "notorious" for crashing wifi routers. So she confirms that the problem is one of connection to router suddenly dropping out.
My own feeling is that none of these fixes will do the trick, because it seems pretty clear that there is a hardware component here - the timing of the drops seems like an overheating issue. It takes 35-40 minutes for the box to warm up enough for the first drop; then each consecutive drop happens quicker than the one before, as it heats up more. Each time it drops, its tiny brain gets a little more scrambled; last night it finally wouldn't start up again at all.
My suggestion is that everyone who is experiencing this problem, please call Apple tech support and ask to speak to a senior advisor in the Apple TV department. Make them aware of this problem!

Hi...
Based upon the folder error, my guess is the Desktop Manager is having difficulty determining your default mail client. I am not sure why but it is easy enough to redo a profile in Outlook just to test this. (Control Panel / Mail)
Of course, I would backup my PST file prior to doing this and then create a new profile and import the PST file into the new profile. Once the profile is running and tested ok, I would again go to the Control Panel / Mail and set the default profile to point to the newly created profile. Then run the Desktop Manager and see what happens....

HT1476 my iPhone 4 will no longer charge. It is also not recognised in iTunes. There seems to be a problem with the connector slot. I've tried other cables and other computers/plugs but the connection is not being made. Any suggestions?

Looks like a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first...

My iPad is not being recognized by the computer, therefore, cannot sync. It charges when plugged to the wall, but not when pugged to iMac.

My iPad is not being recognized by the computer, therefore, cannot sync. It charges when plugged to the wall, but not when pugged to iMac.

Most common culprits include the cable. Try swapping it out for a different one.. or not having the most recent version of itunes. I once even solved this problem by shutting down the computer for 2 minutes. (the longer the better), with the ipad plugged in. starting it up... then itunes recognizes it, launches, and syncs.
Apple has a troubleshooting assistant on this topic:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
It will advise you to reboot. I recommend shutting down instead.
--Sam
P.S The ipad should charge when asleep and plugged into your Mac. The charging behavior is normal. There isn't enough power out the USB ports to charge the ipad while it is on on some older Macs and nearly all PCs.
