Can I use NIDAQ32.dll with more than one application?

We have some third party hardware and software which uses a PCI-6602 board and NIDAQ. I wanted to use some of the functions of the board for something else in a VB 6.0 program, but I always got errors with NIDAQ32.dll not being found if the third party software was running. It worked fine if I closed their software. I talked to NI, and they said you could not access a board with two applications at once. Fine, so I bought a PCI-6601 to put in the system to do my other functions. However, I still get the same error, saying the NIDAQ32.dll can not be found when I try to run my VB program. Anybody have a solution? I really need this to work, or this board is pretty useless to me...

Matt,
You CAN access a board with two applications at once. However, you can not access the same resource on a board with two applications at once. Analog input, analog output, and digital I/O are each their own separate resources. Each individual counter is a separate resource. Since your application works fine with the third-party software closed it sounds like your third-party software is doing something to the NIDAQ32.dll. I recommend contacting the developers of the third-party software and finding out what they are doing with the NIDAQ32.dll and if they even intended other applications to access the DLL at the same time.

  • How can i use my iphone with more than one itunes

    how can i use my iphone with more than one itunes

    Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
    Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
    I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
    As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
    When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entries and import the local content you have on that box.

  • Can i use my ipod with more than one computer?

    i synched my ipod with one computer, hooked it up to another and it says i can't sync with more than one library? it says i have to restore it but i dont want to delete my music off of my ipod, i just want to add the music from this other library

    I have two different iPods and two computers. I regularly use either iPod on either computer.
    First set the preferences so itunes will not automatically sync when ipod is connected.
    Then connect the ipod and set itunes to manually manage music.
    Drag and drop whatever content you want to the device showing on the left.
    If this was the default setup, there wouldn't be all these posts about people losing all their music when they connect their ipod.

  • Can't seem to sync with more than one computer???

    I loaded I-tunes on my laptop and then tried to load on my desktop computer with no luck. Can you only sync through one computer or am I missing something?

    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you just need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos". You can't sync from more than one library.

  • Can't use the iPod on more than one computer!!!!!!!

    Ok, This has got me so frustrated! We got an iPod and installed iTunes. We thought we had it figured out - we purchased music from iTunes, played it on the iPod and everything was great. Then plugged the iPod into my other computer to listen to our music and it won't freakin' play! says the computer is "Not Authorized" and suggests that by 'authorizing' the 2nd computer, it will overwrite the songs that are already on the iPod. This is NOT desirable. We've downloaded and installed iTunes onto the 2nd computer and used the same login account that we used on the first computer.
    What gives!?!?! I thought this was supposed to be easy, but it's not! I was hoping for a quick and simple "plug it in and start listening to music." This is definately not quick and simple. Albeit, I'm new to this iPod craze, but this shouldn't be so difficult. I've poked around on the website and cannot seem to find an answer to this.
    HELP!!!!
    Thanks
    oh btw, Is anyone else getting annoyed by Apple's rediculous attempt at monopolizing this market by forcing us to use thier own proprietary software?!?!

    First of all, any computer that plays purchased content must be authorized. This can be accomplished by opening iTunes, then store>authorize computer. If you wish to use your iPod on more than one computer & not have your iPod content erased, you will have to have your iPod preferences set on "manually manage". See the following link.

    Also, it's not only Apple that uses proprietary software. How about Zune players, & several others?

  • WebObjects 5.3 WOHyperlink can't call an action with more than one argument

    Hi there,
    I recently upgraded from WebObjects 5.2.3 to 5.3.
    I used WOHyperlink with more than one ?<ARG> binding to build http requests...
    It used to work in 5.2.3, but not anymore in 5.3. The problem stems from the ampersand character that separates args, because it is now replaced by &.
    I found a similar issue dealing with WOSubmitButton that was resolved in 5.2.3:

    i get excel files sent to me all the time by email and have been able to open most of them.  Went to a apple store and was told i needed to install numbers app on my iphone 4 to open them up because their was more than likely two or more work sheets in that file. i am on the road and can't get to my imac.  I bought numbers did all the updates on the iphone and sync to itunes.  it still cant open the spreadsheets if they have more than one work sheet. it does ask do you want to open in numbers i answer the question it starts the import then get error message spreadsheet couldn't be imported.  the file format is invalid.

    Any suggestions

    Hi Caroline
    you should be able to apply the exact same principles to your multi query report. The XML will have a main root node and then the results of the queries underneath.
    So if you had 3 queries you'd get something like
    <REPORTNAME>
    <G_FIRST_QUERY>
    </G_FIRST_QUERY>
    <G_SECOND_QUERY>
    <G_SECOND_QUERY>
    <G_THIRD_QUERY>
    <G_THIRD_QUERY>
    </REPORTNAME>
    In the template you will be able to map on to the separate sections of the XML very easily.
    regards, Tim

  • Can I sync ipod touch with more than one PC?

    Hi all
    I'll go and buy a ipod touch 4G tomorrow or Thursday down my Apple store.
    My problem is my home desktop PC that I normally use to sync music and apps is currently in pieces waiting for some new parts. So I'll use an old windows XP laptop to active the ipod touch when I get it.
    My question is if I active the ipod with the laptop, can I also sync it with my desktop PC later on?
    Or another way to ask the same question: is the ipod touch restricted to one computer or one itune account?
    Thanks for your help guys and girls.

    Thanks, one more question if you don't mind. If I activate the ipod through itune software installed on a remote hard drive and copy the itune folder from the hard drive to my PC later on. Do you still think the ipod which sync with contents on my PC?
