Can't choose audio device inputs...

I can't seem to select the desired inputs on for my audio device in STP.
One day it worked, but most others I can't configure it.
I can choose the device in the inputs tab, but it only lists the device name (AudioFire4) and not listing the different inputs available..
Is there some trick to getting this to work in STP? Everything works great in all other apps i use.. Peak, Live, Logic..
How should I be configuring Soundtrack Pro?
OS and Apps are all up to date, and I'm using an Echo AudioFire4 firewire interface..
Macbook

I am also perplexed and frustrated with this issue. I
have tried every combination and order of set-up but
can't get my M-Audio Black Box audio interface to
show up in STP. I can record just fine in GarageBand
but the interface doesn't even appear in STP. All
software is the latest including drivers, firmware,
etc. on the interface. I am wondering if the M-Audio
is just plain glitchy? Or is STP fussy?
Grrrr.

UPDATE: After a lot of uninstalling and re-installing and plugging and unplugging (several times), I think I have stumbled upon the issue. Previously, I had the the interface plugged in through a Belkin powered USB hub. I tried plugging the interface directly into the front USB jack of the G5 and - voila - it works. I can see it and record through it in STP. Mystery solved, I guess. Could this be the problem some others have had in seeing their interfaces in STP? Good luck.

JMF-based applet can not detect audio devices on Vista (?)

Hi,
As many people reported, I encountered the same issue - CaptureDeviceManager.getDeviceList does not detect any audio device on IE/Vista.
Here is my testing environment:
HP XW4600, RealTek HD Audio onboard sound card,
Vista SP1 (Business, Home Premium, and Vista64)
JRE1.5.0_16, JMF2.1.1e
A recording Applet runs in IE7 (which works fine on XP and its Java application version always works fine on Vista)
I have tried a number of things without success:
1)Use different audio formats as the input parameter for getDeviceList
2)Try CaptureDeviceManager.getDevice(new String("DirectSoundCapture"))
3)CaptureDeviceInfo info = new CaptureDeviceInfo(com.sun.media.protocol.dsound.DataSource.NAME,new MediaLocator("dsound://"),null);
4) Vector devices = (Vector) CaptureDeviceManager.getDeviceList(null).clone();
5)Uncheck UAC(Vista User Access Control)
6)Set IE settings least restrictive
7)Try signed or unsigned recording Applet
8)Pack the recording Applet to a jar and deploy to JRE\lib\ext
9)Run JMFInit and copy the files in JMF\Lib to System32 folder
On a few occasions, audio devices can be detected. For examples,
10)Upgrading an HP XW4200 (XP machine with AC�97 codecs driver) to Vista,
11)1/5 chance on the machines with both Sun JRE and MS Java SDK installed.
12)Trying Item # 9. it worked once on one machine, but after rebuilding the machine, the same trick does not play.
I am wondering if there is a way to let JMF-based applets detect audio devices on Vista or this is an inherent problem with JMF, IE and Vista.
I would appreciate it very much if you�d kindly offer any help and suggestions.

A quick test of that is to try the same code as an application.
If the application works, one possible fix is to launch the application using webstart. Webstart will work from a web page, and offers many other advantages over a standard applet.

Can firefox change audio device preference without restarting?

I use my PC as a home theatre as well as for day to day usage, and have multiple audio devices.
For most usage, I route the sound through on-board audio (realtek) but for watching movies, I run it through the ATI HDMI output to the TV.
Currently, in order to watch a movie, I have to shut down Firefox, change windows prefered audio device, then restart Firefox.
Can I change the device preferences somehow within Firefox without restarting it?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Is there a way to change the name of audio device inputs/outputs?

Hi there hope someone can help me. I use my macs primarily for music production and I have several audio cards both USB and PCI on my MacPro and I use external audio cards with my MacBook Pro both running Mountain Lion. As I have many different outputs I would like to rename them from their defaults, in other words I would like to rename "Headphones" to "Studio Monitors" and so on.
I have created Aggregate Devices which almost works as a solution as its possible to name them easily. The problem is with an Aggregate Device, the system Volume Control becomes greyed out and I can no longer change the volume using the Apple Keyboard.
I'm hoping that someone might be able to tell me which system file holds the names for the Audio Inputs and Outputs so that I can basically apply a bit of a hack to change my inputs and outputs to something a little more transparent? I don't mind applying tweaks to plist files etc as I have done this numerous times in the past to tweak some aspects of OS X.
The other solution would be to tweak the Aggregate Device settings to enable the volume control. Either option would be great especially when I am working on projects with friends who would be able to choose to listen to audio on a different set of monitors or headphones without having to ask me constantly which output is which.
All help appreciated!

These directions may be useful in the future but I was wondering how to change the actual name of the computer.
You know when you log into your iMac and then it loads all of your preferences?
Well at the very top of the login box, there is the name of your computer, I want to change that.
Not short names for Home folders.
Thank you though...
Any other suggestions or solutions?

Combining Audio Devices: Input Channels don't work

Hello,
I combined 2 Audio Interfaces with 2 input channels and 2 output channels each with my default audio output using the Audio-MIDI-Setup.
Now i realized that one input channel per interface disappeared, but thats all good, because these channels were dead anyways.
But: When combining the devices to a new device the input channels just disappear.
The Audio-MIDI-Setup lists 6 output channels an 0 input channels for the new device.
When using the audio interfaces normally (without creating a new device) the input channels work perfectly, so there's no hardware error.

Windows Vista can't find audio device

I successfuly installed windows vista Beta 2 on my macBookpro, but I don't have sound. windows says No Audio output device is installed. Any suggestions? Help!

How in blazings did you install Vista on your MBP?
Did you use BootCamp? Paralells? Something else? I
heard that it cannot be installed with any of these...
I used bootCamp, but I had a problem after full installation
( windows vista was complaining about a missing file), then I read in some post that if I deleted the 200 MB partion (that shows up at the begining of the vista istallation) I would be able to dual boot, so I did that. Then after booting a second time and using the recovery option on windows vista. It worked.There is a downside to doing that though( boot camp won't be able to make your hard drive one partion any more).If you want to make your hard drive one partion you would have to use the disk utility and reinstall tiger( may be there is some other solution. Don't know)
Some of the Mac drivers that I burnt using boot camp worked but not all of them, but over all I had no problems after installation ( wireless worked from the first time)
I still don't have the eject button working yet( but I don't really need it)

SQL Queries in CUCM - Can I choose multiple devices

Hi,
I am trying to get an output from multiple phone mac-addresses using SQL in CUCM. Can it be done:
run sql select d.name,d.description,dmap.numplanindex, n.dnorpattern from device as d inner join devicenumplanmap as dmap on dmap.fkdevice=d.pkid inner join numplan as n on dmap.fknumplan = n.pkid where d.name= 'SEP0008308B4BEE' and d.name= 'SEP000D9D546430'
name description numplanindex dnorpattern
==== =========== ============ ===========
Thanks,
John

Hi John
You need an OR not an AND
where d.name= 'SEP0008308B4BEE' OR d.name= 'SEP000D9D546430'
You can us IN with a , separated list
where d.name IN('SEP0008308B4BEE','SEP000D9D546430')
You can also use LIKE where the % is the wild card
where d.name Like 'SEP000F%'
The IN is probably your most useful

HT201317 can i choose which devices all my photos get pushed to?

In iCloud, is there a way I can make the sharing go only one way? For example, from my iPhone to my Macbook, but not my Macbook to my iPhone?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In the scenario you mention, you can do what you want by turning off the automatic addition of new photos to photostream in iPhoto preferences.
Only iPhoto on your Mac can do this, so you couldn't have this one way sync between two mobile devices for example.

TS3376 How to choose which device to find?

I have años ipad2, two iPhone all under same account. One iPhone is loose how can i choose that device and find It?

Welcome to the Apple community.
None of those devices can be the "major". The master data is that which is held in the cloud, all the other devices merely sync with that.

No audio device found=no sound on OS9 (MDD Dual 867)

Hello,
i have a serious problem when running OS 9.2.2 on my dual 867 MDD. There is no sound ! In the "sound panel" i have a message like this ( i translate from french ):" Can't use audio device because it seems that another application use it". That is for "in" and "out" sound. When i try to play a movie in QuickTime, i have a message like this ( approximatly ): " you maybe can't hear the audio of the file because there is no audio device". I don't understand because there is no application running. I try everything: disable all preferences, disable all non-apple extensions, reset the pram, reinstall a clean system on other partition. Always the same problem. It's like that computer don't see an audio device - i mean the internal audio of the mac ! On OS 9.2.2 i'm running QuickTime 6.0.3 of course. When i boot on Mac Os X 10.3.9 and -for example- running "Classic QuickTime" i have sound.
So i don't understand. Someone can help me ? Thanks !
( sorry for my english
elzef

To make sure we understand:
when you boot your system direct to OS9, you have no sound.
When you boot to OS X, you have sound.
When you run classic from inside of OSX, you have sound.
Do you have anything like an iMic, 3rd party sound card (there are a couple of complanies that make surround sound cards for Mac), USB speakers, USB headset, or MIDI device connected?

Can editors using Mountain Lion check the Device Input Gain slider in the Record Audio tool is working?

Please see this thread for full details.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/21134725#21134725
It appears that for some people, upgrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 kills the Device Input Gain slider functionality in the Record Audio tool.
Could you post your findings?

Thanks Luis, it looks as though it is quite widespread, if not universal.
As you can see in the link above, booting back into Snow Leopard 10.6.8 completely restores the functionality for me, so it looks as though it's ML that kills it.
I've sent a feedback to FCP X.

Can I use two audio devices simultaneously ?

I have Mackie Onyx 1620 with firewire card and I have also MOTU 828. Both devices are linked together. When using Logic Express 8 there is list on preferences/audio/devices and on that list there are both Mackie and Motu. But I can choose only one device ? There are sometimes situations that I need more input channels than Mackie has ... How can I add MOTU channels on inputting?

You need to use the Audio MIDI Setup utility (Applications/Utilities) to setup an aggregate device. Check out this page for an explanation of how to do so:

Who do you think I am? Santa Claus?
What you need is not a mixer, but an audio interface with at least 4 mic inputs. There is a lot of choice there, but you should indicate a budget. You can go from, say, € 300 to € thousands, if you want.
Roland UA 1010
Focusrite Scarlett 18i8
However, there are other options (like multi-out mixer plus multi in interface, or standalone mic preamps plus interface with 4 inputs, etc). I have little experience using these however so I really cannot say much about which one(s) to get. The two mentioned above both have four mic preamps, but they are by no means the only way to do it.
The cheapest solution I can think of is to get a second 1204USB, plug it in, and in OS X create an Aggregate device (=the two are being merged into 'one virtual' interface with two discrete stereo (= four discrete mono) inputs. Disadvantage: you keep the same (limited) soundquality of the 16 bits convertors. Getting any of the interfaces mentioned earlier will also mean you'll make the significant step up from 16 to 24 bits sound.

Macbook pro can't find the audio device

Lately I have been having trouble with the audio. The sound doesn't work on the Macbook, and it can't seem to find any devices!
I tried plugging in headphones, but nothing helped.
In the time leading up to this fault, the sound in the mini jack was very poor, and sounded really bad.
When I plug my TV to the computer, by HDMI, I works fine. Even with sound.
Any suggestions?
Oh, and I can't adjust the sound - it simply tells me that there is no device.

I've tried that, and I can't choose anything.
As I said, it can't find any devices. Tried to Reset SMC and PRAM - non helped
