Axiom 49 - never been able to get drum pads to work

I'm using an Axiom 49 M-Audio keyboard. I seem to be able to assign controls with the sliders and knobs, but when I try to assign any of the 8 drum pads on the right of the keyboard they don't do anything. It seems to "See" the pads, they do respond in the transport window as (from TtoB, LtoR) 71, 105, 106, 107, 74, 102, 103 and 104. However then they don't make any sound ever.
I recently tried "Learn"ing them in MainStage for the first time. Still Nothing.
Please help. I would really appreciate it. Sorry if this is completely rudimentary, but any direction would help.
Thank you!

Hi,
Try to re-program the drum pads to a more useful MIDI message, such as a note.
Please consult the keyboard's manual on how to do that.
Cheers

Have never been able to get a printer to work on my MBP!!!

Ok, I've had this laptop since LAST MAY and have never, ever gotten a stinkin' printer to work from it. Right now I have to print everything to PDF and put it on my PC to print.
I've got a Fiery X3e 31-CM PS v.2 IP printer and cannot get it to work from my Mac - and there are drivers listed. The print queue just says "Opening Printer Connection" and sits there. At the same time I can print from any other PC in the house.
I also have a HP OfficeJet R60 on the network and a direct-connect HP Photosmart 1215 - neither of which will work from my MBP, only a PC. What is the point of having networked/direct connect printers if I CANNOT PRINT!!!???
Any help would be appreciated.

I hope we can help!
We need more details - what exact protocol choice(s) and IP addresses and queue names have you entered? How is the R60 connected? Were there preinstalled drivers or did you install drivers? If you installed drivers, were they Universal (for both powerPC and Intel Mac - just for intel is OK, too)?
For the Fiery, I see that it supports the IPP and LPD protocols. Your symptoms sound like you have entered the printer's IP address, but not the device's queue name. Look for that in the Fiery manual. If you can't find it there, you can usually find it on a PC in printer properties for the printer setup.

I have Photoshop Elements 12 that was purchased for my Windows 8 system in July of 2014. I have never been able to get the organizer to work. I need help getting this portion of the program to work. I would like to talk with an Adobe tech.

How is it that I can download and use Photoshop Elements 12 program editor and not have access to the organizer???

Hi,
The two applications (organizer & editor) can work independently and only talk to each other when they need to.
Are you updating from a previous version or is this the first?
There are (at least) three ways of starting the organizer:-
1) from the Welcome screen
2) from the editor - see button at the bottom of the editor window
3) directly using windows explorer to locate and double click on the following
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
[ignore the (x86) part if on 32bit system]
Can you get any of those ways to work? Do you get any error message or does nothing happen?
You could try creating a new catalog to see if that helps.
Start the organizer (in any of the ways) with the Shift key held down while it loads (if it does). That should bring up the catalog manager
Click on the New button (top right)
Give it a name like Dummy or Test and click on OK - that should create & open a blank catalog

[CS3] I have never been able to get this right: Batch/Droplet and output file naming??????

Hi,
The situation:
I need to convert a folder of PDF's to PNG format.
My process:
I create an action by recording my "actions" based on one of the said PDF's.
Problem:
When batching and/or processing via a droplet (created from action I created from above), the output file name is ALWAYS the EXACT name of the file I used when I created my action!!! Why? I have tried everything... Why is it so hard for Photoshop to batch a file and use the file name of the current file being batched (and not the name of the original file that the action was created from)???
Please help!
I feel like such a dunce... I am sure the answer is staring me right in the face.
Many thanks in advance!!!
Cheers,
Micky

Hi Conrad!
Thanks for the help, I greatly appreciate your time. :)
Sorry for my delayed reply.
I never touched the file name for the save as dialog box.
I have use PS for many years, and I have never been able to get the file name to stay the same as the file being processed. :(
My boss even, he is a beta tester of future versions of Adobe products, and he could not get it to work...
It only worked for me/us when appending a digit to the end of the file name. Not an optimal solution, but it works. ;)
@Foot, I am glad this thread was helpful! :D
Have a great day all!
Cheers,
Micky

Axiom 49 - MainStage - Cannot get drum pads to work

I'm just starting MainStage and using an Axiom 49 M-Audio keyboard. I got the message to select Preset 1, I didn't know what that was so I clicked ok without doing anything in the Axiom 49. I get sound and everything else. I seem to be able to assign controls with the sliders and knobs, but when I try to assign any of the 8 drum pads on the right of the keyboard they don't work. It seems to "Learn" the pads when I try and assign them, but I can only click on them with the mouse in edit and perform modes. However then they don't make the same sound that was previously assigned to them, just a general midi instrument with the assigned note under Hardware Assignment.

Hi,
Try to re-program the drum pads to a more useful MIDI message, such as a note.
Please consult the keyboard's manual on how to do that.

Anyone been able to get an acer smartbattery working?

I post this after a few days of wrestling with my brand new Acer TravelMate 401WLMi. Its a fantastic laptop and i have come across only one problem thus far with it, and that is the battery monitor in linux. I have tried the stock 2.6.15 kernel, the archck series, and a few that i have compiled myself and none have seemed to get me any acknowledgement that there is a battery in the system. Dmesg gives me lots of acpi errors on bootup, but everything works but the battery. Having researched the topic, it seems that the battery is a "smartbattery" and uses the smb bus to send/recieve battery information. I attempted patching my kernel using this
http://shayol.bartol.udel.edu/~rhdt/dow … 120.tar.gz
but the patch to my dsdt didnt go smoothly.it ended up that by applying the patch i was able to create to my initrd, I actually killed support for my onboard wifi card, so i figured that wasnt the way to go. I wondered if anyone has any more ideas or any stories of getting the battery sensors to work properly on an acer laptop.
Just as a side note, i threw in a Kanotix live cd and it picks it up fine, but all i can find about the kanotix kernel is that its compiled with "a lot of patches." i imagine if i could find what patches they applied, i could get to the root of my problem, but again i havent been able to find any information regarding that.

ok well with further tinkering i found that forcing the module would create BAT0 in /proc/acpi/battery. i usually run without the battery in the laptop because i'm weird like that.. and i forgot i didnt have anything in there. when i polled the battery, it said none present so i shut down, installed the battery, and booted back up. this time, the module was seen as being used in lsmod, but BAT0 dissapeared in /proc/acpi/battery. i am utterly confused. upon trying the kanotix live cd, as well as numerous other live cd's, nothing picks up the battery or even sees anything in /proc/acpi/battery so i dont know where to go from here. anyone have any ideas?

Anyone been able to get mail merge to work?

I have a standard form that is currently being filled out
manually, we would like to add it to our intranet so it could be
filled out and submitted electronically. I have Ben Forta's book
"Advanced Macromedia Coldfusion: Application Development Kit" and
found the section where he talks about how to achieve this, but for
some reason it just wont work on my system.
I have Coldfusion 6.1 running locally and Word 2003 loaded.
I have tried many many ways and have worked on just getting
each step to work. It seems that the page will hang if it has to
open a Mail merge main document. It will open a normal document and
then I can pull text from that document and output it to the page,
but I want to be able to open a mail merge document and have it
perform a merge using either a text file or an access database as
the data source. I am hoping that someone out there can shed some
light on my problem. Thanks for reading, sorry it is kind of a
lengthy explanation.....

Have never been able to get ichat to connect to msn

have tried all the tutorials out there, but every msn transport i have tried just says registration succeeded and then never returns my contacts.. not sure if it is because i am using a messengeruser.com account, or what. adium works great but would love to be able to use ichat.

Okay so it sounds like the issue is with the jabber server. I have never fully done this, as I swear off MSN, but I am quite familiar with the jabber process.
Have you tried logging into the jabber account in iChat? Do the yahoo accounts show up and not MSN? Perhaps the jabber server will not display all the msn contacts, but it will display them in iChat.
EDIT: Darrin, also I believe you can add any other Jabber service's accounts to any other Jabber account. Some info here... (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060918092954170). I know the gtalk is super easy to set up in iChat, maybe you want to try that and add your msn contacts to that. Though I suppose that is a pain to re-add people...

I have a mid 2011 iMac with 2 thunderbolt ports that I have never been able to get to work.

I purchased two Segate adapters and drives but if I can get them to run at all they will eventually freeze up the computer and I will have to reboot. I just tried them again today and the computer does not even see them. Has anyone else had this problem and did you get it resolved. I took it to the Apple store once and as you would know after a system reset it worked I took it home and within an houre it froze up the system and I have not gotten it to work since.

Take it back to the Apple Store and leave it there so that they can check it out for a couple of days at least with the disks.

Since signing up and paying for PDF conversion I have never been able to get the document I download to look anything like the original form. How do I correct this and what is a phone number to contact someone at Adobe

What I scan into my computer and what Adobe converts look nothing alike. Many discrepancies How do I correct this and what is a phone number to speak with a human being at Adobe

Does it say it will convert into an exact copy of the PDF? If it does, marketing need to fix what they say. Just converting is miracle enough for me, knowing the difficulties.
If it isn't going to satisfy you, you need to contact Adobe for a refund. Use the CHAT link in support (be sure to make the right choices, or you don't get the link).

Hey there, for some reason, on my iPod Touch 4th gen, I have never been able to get iMessage to work.When I verify my email address to activate it, it automatically goes back and never allows me to do iMessage. Why is this or what should I do?

What should I do? This is a great feature, and I want to take advantage of it. Thank you!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

Has anyone been able to get android devices to work with OS X Server? (calendar collaboration and mail)

I am looking at switching a SB from Exchange to OS X server. The SB currently uses android phones with exchange (Mail, Calander and Contacts). Is there a what to do the same in OS X Server without switching the phones to iPhone?

That's too bad because I just want to play around
with Linux. Guess I'll install it on my Windows box
instead.
As mentioned by ajr650, another option is to try the virtualization route with Parallels. There are threads on the Parallels Desktop for Mac support forum that describe how to get various flavors of Linux up and running in a Parallels VM - including some pre-made turnkey images that various users have created (check out this thread there).
Nice thing, too, is if you decide you don't like it or want to start over, just trash the file that represents the virtual hard disk and you've got your space back.

Has anyone been able to get VPN over 3G working

I am just wondering, if anyone has VPN over 3G working with iPad. It works a treat with the iphone4, just not iPad. All settings are the same for both devices, however iPad says connecting, authenticating, and disconnecting. Credentials have been checked numerous times, as have all other fields. iPad just doesn't want to play the game.

Works "fine" here:
- iPad (1) 3G
- 3G On
- WiFi Off
- Vodafone Portugal
- PPTP VPN
- No cable to neither PC nor charger
- Always connects 1st try
- I turn VPN on, lock the screen, and if I unlock in under 15s it will be still ON; if after 15s, then it will have dropped
- If, on the other hand, I have the charger connected, I have tested with more than 2 mins after locking it and it's still on.
As for your problem connecting, try using the same card on your iPad as you use on your phone to test, seeing that the settings are all the same and it works fine on iPhone and not on iPad.

Have not been able to get flash working since upgrading to 7.0.1, using the Debian Linux OS.

I haven't been able to get the flash player working since upgrading to FF 7.0.1 on Debian Linux. I have followed the instructions in "How do I install the Flash plugin?" (https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/installing-flash) multiple times.
As I said this has been an issue since the latest upgrade. I was able to get flash working in earlier versions. Flash works in the Debian "Iceweasel" version of FF.

Thanks for the post, but no, that did not fix the problem.
I have located these directories:
/opt/firefox/plugins
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
of course there is the /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree directory but that shouldn't matter for FF itself.
Still not working and I get this message on the "Check you plugins" page:
"For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Flash. Please ''upgrade to the latest version.''"
The version on that page "Adobe Flash Player version 11.0.1.152
Your system: Linux 64-bit, Firefox" is the version I'm using.
