Audigy 2 ZS No mic or line-in in both Windows and with Creative Surround Mix

Happy New Year to all.
I have installed 2 ZS card. Output works well. I want to record a couple of old vinyl albums. I cant either through Creative Surround mixer or through windows get either a Line-in or microphone input to select from. I have tried everything but this forum. If anybody has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Eric

In the Creative Mixer on the right hand side you should see a separate column with a "Rec" heading. There should be a small upside-down triangle. Click on that and you should get a list. Choose "Analog Mix" which includes Microphone, Line-In, etc. Then to the left, un-mute the source you want.

Updated to Premiere CC 2014 and AE CC 2014 and now have blue lines/blue imprints of windows and crashes after 5 minutes of use or on start up

iMac - 27 ", late 2012
Processor 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB
Software OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)
After I updated from CS6 to CC 2014, my screen started to display blue lines and/or a blue imprint of a previously closed window, and Premiere CC 2014 and AE CC 2014 began crashing after about five minutes of use. Also, an error message popped up telling me to update my CUDA driver. I took the iMac into Apple and after updating the CUDA driver in store with an Apple associate, the error message went away. They were concerned about the blue lines, and after 3 days of hardware testing, they determined that the screen was not failing, the hardware was in great shape and the lines and crashing must be a software related issue. I took the computer home, uninstalled and reinstalled AE using the appropriate installer, and rebooted. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled Premiere using the Premiere installer and rebooted again. During the second restart a blue imprint of the Google Chrome window I had had open before the reboot was imprinted over the welcome/password screen. I typed in my password, opened up the Premiere project I'd been working on and immediately, the always dramatic message "A serious issue as occurred..." popped up. I tried opening it again, saved a new recovery copy and started to work on the project. Five minute later it froze up and I had to force quit. This happened two more times, both roughly after five minutes of use....back to square one.
Obviously, this is seriously hurting my workflow. Any advice you could give would be greatly appreciated!

... a blue imprint of the Google Chrome window I had had open before the reboot was imprinted over the welcome/password screen.
The apple guys said this wasn't a hardware error? I don't know software errors to save imprints throughout a restart. If I were to live dangerously and assume anything it would be that you got a failing graphics processor.
Ever tried cloning your boot drive and then doing a complete wipe and re-install of OS and CC?

Creative Surround Mixer for Audigy SE / Vist

Hello
I've got a Creative Audigy SE on my computer, but I still haven't found Surround Mixer for Vista.
Where can I get it ?
Regards,
k_iowas

creative are force all us to change to x-fire, i cant belei've creative cant make software for audigy when vista is about year old.
Creative just lies to us. (as alchemy that supose to by only for x-fire)
PD: i have audigy2 SZ and i wont change to x-fire or another creative product, this is simply the last creative product for me

Thick, horizontal lines appear in both source and program viewer footage set to less than 100% ...

Can anyone help?
This has suddenly started across all projects, including those I have been working on for ages with no issues. Everything else seems to be exactly the same as ever in every other application, only PP is affected. The footage is all progressive (I rarely encounter interlaced nowadays), prores HQ 25fps, usually 1080 but also 720. Output to the monitor, via MXO2 mini is fine and has not changed at all. I can't think of any updates recently, certainly not in the past week, when this started.
It's really wierd and clearly wrong, but I can't begin to work out how to fix it, having exhausted all my standard fixes (settings in app, OS, hardware etc all checked and rechecked. Reboots done - all to no effect).
My system is:
MacPro 5,1 6-core 3.33GHz
12GB RAM
GTX285 Mac GPU - CUDA 5.0.45, GPU driver 1.3.4.0 (295.00.05f03)
OSX 10.7.5
PP CS 6.0.2
MXO2 mini - latest drivers etc
Any thoughts, much appreciated!
Thanks
Dominic

Well, I seem to have fixed it but none the wiser for why I had this problem.
Fixed it by upgrading my OS to OSX 10.8.3 (always a nerve trembling experience), after cloning my boot drive etc. Then I updated CUDA to the latest version, reinstalled my Matrox drivers and crossed my fingers! Happily, everything seems to be fine now. I can only think that the problem was, maybe, something to do with CUDA, as the only time I ever had an issue was using PP and playback was at less than 100% scale.

My macbook internet download speed is extremely slow. I have tried other computers both windows and mac on the same line and speeds are normal. What is the problem?

My macbook internet download speed is extremely slow. I have tried 2 other computers, another mac and windows and the download speed is over 10mb but with this macbook pro it is less than 1mb. What is causing this and how to fix?

To find out how much space you have & what is left, open up Disk Utility/Machintosh HD/First Aid. The info will be at the bottom of the window.
Sluggish Finder - Bunch of icons on your desktop? An overcrowded desktop slows down your Mac.
Get rid of needless Finder calculations - Open a window in Finder/View/Show View Options: ensure "Calculate All Sizes" option is unchecked.
Internet related - It's likely that your broadband connection is the bottleneck. You can check your speed on http://www.speedtest.net to see how fast your connection is. If your web browser specifically performs slowly, quit and relaunch it.
If browser remains sluggish, empty its cache.
Safari/Empty Cache
Firefox/Preferences - select the Network tab of the Advanced preferences and click the "Clear Now" button in the "Offline Storage" area.
Application related - Launch "Activity Monitor" - Applications/Utilities - click the CPU heading and see what float to the top. If an application takes up a large chunk of CPU and won't let it go, it could be dragging down your Mac's performance. Quit it by clicking the Quit Process button at the top of the Activity Monitor window.

Audigy 2 ZS/ Teamspeak/ Mic Problems/ SOL

I gather from other posts im not the first and probably not the last to have problems with my SB card and Teamspeak Mic function, after MANY painful hours of reading this forum, downloading drivers, reinstalling software and countless tweaks to my SB mixer and Teamspeak options I finally got my Mic to work right. Hopefully my pain will help someone one else, I was ready to give up on my Mic/SB card ever working right till I stumbled on what appears to be the fix to to Mic problem, I made so many changes I will list them all as Im not sure that it isnt the combination of any or all things that made it work,
My set up, front Mic and Headphone jack on computer,
-Go to SB mixer function, above the first volume knob is a red arrow, click on it, it will say digital only output, SELECT this option, turn volume up
-reading left to right on the middle part of the mixer, turn the function ON the first 3, turn off the the following 3.
- the 6th funtion should be set to microphone, click on red arrow above mic picture and turn on mic boost function.
-Teamspeak setting, go to options screen select "wave" sound, click ok and adjust in and out volumes on settings panel.
This did it for me, I went from no mic, to fuzzy mic, to crystal clear mic after playing with things for 2 days.
I have new faith in my SB card and hope others are smarter than me and figure it out with out all the research good luck.

In the Creative Mixer on the right hand side you should see a separate column with a "Rec" heading. There should be a small upside-down triangle. Click on that and you should get a list. Choose "Analog Mix" which includes Microphone, Line-In, etc. Then to the left, un-mute the source you want.

Audigy 2 ZS - Surround Mixer - REC setting greyed

Hi! I can't select my sound input device in the surround mixer anymore. Here is a picture:
<img alt="mixer" width="500" src="http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/09/mixeriq.jpg" height="302" title="mixer">
As you can see the slider is greyed out. My microphone works just fine, but I cannot adjust the volume anymore.
I'm using Windows XP, I recently installed Skype and TeamSpeak (checked both programs, the input settings are NOT on "automatic", so the Creative Surround Mixer should be where I adjust the input volume)
I can use the windows settings to select another recording device and adjusting the volume also works, but I want to use the creative mixer, this worked in the past and I want it back
Any ideas? Maybe I'm missing something important.

Hmm no but I reinstalled the latest driver (7 Jul 08)
http://de.europe.creative.com/support/downloads/download2.asp?MainCategory=&Product=495&dlcentric= 058&Product_Name=Audigy+2+ZS&filetype=&OSName=Wind ows+XP
Is that one bugged? Should I downgrade to the driver on the CD?

Megastick 256 (USB 2.0) has "external MIC" or "line-in" jack ??

In the manual on page 9 can be found an information "12.External MIC jack", but in the player setup and in the spec. is "line-in". So, what type input has the player ?? It can be changed ??
I'm interested in "mic-in" line, but external standard mic doesn't work.
best regard

Support answer:
Thank you for contacting MSI Technical Support.
The new Mega stick (USB 2.0) can't not use external microphone , which is for Mega Stick 256 USB 1.1 .
Please choose 'recording source' to 'microphone' for internal microphone recording.
Sorry for the inconvenience !
Thank you for supporting MSI product. Please feel free to let us know if you still have any further issues or inquiries.

PlainTalk mic not line level?

I thought I could use my old PlainTalk mic for line level input of mono voice, but no go. Was it a long miniplug for power that is no longer available in '09 Mac mini jacks? Does appear long.
If I could understand why line level isn't line level, I think the rest of the details will fall into place.

The mini uses a standard 1/8" plug. Check out these two sights the info should be helpful:

Audigy 2 ZS pro mic prob

Need help, sitting here pulling my hair out... Everything works perfect exept my mic, and yes i have done about all to fix it. I?ve disabled the onboard soundcard, and no the mic is not in mute. I?ve tryed about all the solutions i could find here on the forum. I?ve installed the latest drivers and so on and so on. Now the problem is that in start/settings/Control Panel/Sounds and Audio Devices/voice Voice recording the Advance button is gray, so cant get in to advance settings. Its worked like a charm before and now its just gone. I have done the Test hardware and it cant find the mic, and yes i have tested with other headsets just to c if my was broken (my headset Koss SB/45). I remember i had this broblem a long time ago, but i cant remember what i did to fix it. Think that time it was something in windows that was faulty, im going nuts here please need help.
thnx in advance...
btw im using Win XP ProMessage Edited by SuperSperm on 02-28-20060:26 AM

Unfortunately, though it's as if the input hardware doesn't exist, the cause isn't clear. It might be the drivers, or it might be the hardware, or Idon'tknowwhatelse. One question: you said the "Test hardware" couldn't find the mic. What software did you run for that?
I have 4 suggestions from simplest to most radical.
. Check for IRQ conflicts
2. Reinstall the drivers.
3. Move the card to a different PCI slot.
4. Uninstall and reinstall the card and all Creative software (i.e., a cleansweep) with a bootup after uninstalling and removing the card before reinstalling. Use your original install CD for the reinstallation and make sure the card is working before installing any updates.
You can try & 2 fairly quickly. If I think of anything else, I'll post back.

Dear Sir / Madam,
Is it possible to have a customer and / or vendor Sub-Ledger account-

I thank for the given below thread which has solved the same problem for G/L Account
Re: Report to get the ledger printout with opening balances

Hello Srinujalleda,
Thanks for your precious time.
I tried the referred T-Code
But this report is not showing Opening balance, closing balance detail.
It only gives transactions during the specified posting period and total of it.
Please guide me further in case if I need to give proper input at selection screen or elsewhere.
Client Requires Report in a fashion
Opening Balance as on Date
+ / - Transactions during the period
= Closing Balance as on date
As that of appearing for G/L Account by S_ALR_87012311
Thanks once again & Regards

In Mail, the "From" line shows the wrong name associated with my email ID. I've looked over preferences and account information but have not found where I can update it.

There isn't an email address associated with the contact name who appears as the "from" in Mail. It used to be a shared email address and I already had updated the contact to list only the phone number in case that was causing the problem.

Event List - Used to show 1 event per line that I could open and view photos. Where is that feature?

I was editing photos (iPhoto) and events were shown as 1 Event per line, preceeded by the > triangle, that I could click and open the event to see the photos.
I was collapsing all the events so I had a nice list by date, and was naming each event.
Then I hit something, and the 1-line per event went away, and now instead of showing events as a list,
it shows events as "icons" with the key photo etc.
How do I get back to listing events as a LIST ?? Like in the Finder window, where you can see
files as Icons, Lists, Columns, or CoverFlow.
All I can see now is the "Icons" view, I want the "Lists" view.
Anyone seen the "Lists" view ?? and how to get back to it?
Thanks

I found the answer here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17430153#17430153
Select VIEW menu item, then click "EVENT TITLES"
To Collapse all the List sub-item details, cursor on one triangle, then ALT-CLICK and they all close up producing a useful listing;.
