Connecting and syncing PC's to Apple and Logic

I have PC's with sample libraries on which I want to connect through my Apple G5 to access in Logic. I will be using Kontakt as my sampler player on the PC's. How do I get my Apple to link with the PC's, and how do I get the machines to sync all together. I have seen that other users set up the PC's to link with their Mac's and that they are able to connect to their PC's through Multi-instruments that are set up in Logic. Just not too sure how it is all done and achieved.

In Marty's scenario...
Keyboard---->Logic--->Unitor--->Hammerfall--->PC/Sampler Instruments
A B C D E
In this scenario, playing a single note on the keyboard...
A to B = 1 ms. (approx. length of MIDI note-on message)
B to C = 1 ms.?? (MIDI going "thru" Logic is can be generally considered instantaneous, though let's say the worst case scenario would be 1 ms)
C to D = 1 ms. (same as above, approx. length of MIDI note on-message)
D to E = 1.5 - 3ms or more ?? (depends on the latency setting required for the PC)
Using the numbers from above, minimum latency from note-on to sound generation from the PC would be approx 3.5 to 7.5+ milliseconds.

In this context, that can sometimes indicate trouble with a content file on the phone (or Touch).
Do you have any podcasts stored on the iPhone at the moment? If so, if you delete them from the phone, can you connect to iTunes without the error?

If that's not a real email, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

TS1425 why is my ipod "connecting" and then "ejecting" before it syncs?

why is my ipod "connecting" and then "ejecting" before it syncs?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
For the Home buttton try:
fix for Home button
iPhone Home Button Not Working or Unresponsive? Try This Fix
- If you have iOS 5 and later you can turn on Assistive Touch it add the Home and other buttons to the iPods screen. Settings>General>Accessibility>Assistive Touch

That happened to my brother earlier. He went into Facebooand then into another app and the same thing happened. he ended up having to restore it. Mine stayed with the Apple logo for a bit but its back to normal after pressing the buttons a million times. I hope you get your problem sorted. Goodluck!

My iTunes library is on a PC, includes items purchases from Apple but a lot that are not. Can I sync the entire library (Apple purchases and others) with my iPAD and how?

My itunes library is on my PC. It has Apple purchased and other music. Can I sync everything with my iPAD and how? I'm having difficulties getting the "non-Apple" music sync'd.

You should be able to sync them from your computer's iTunes to your iPad and/or iPhone. Connect your iPad or iPhone to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via control-S on a PC), and then use the Music tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes to select and sync the music that you want in the iPad/iPhone's Music app

After a diagnostic check for both connectivity and sync, we may have a conflict.

fellow iPod classic owners,
                                      after a diagnostic check in which my iPod was found to be connected, on the sync test it was found to not be there. it appears that something is very amiss here. now granted i am not a whiz kid, but when one test tells you that you are connected and the next tells you that you're not, who do you believe? i smell a conflict of some kind or some such thing. clearly we have issues here. i don't know where else to turn. anyone have any ideas? both tests are part of the help tab on the iTunes page. it seemed reasonable to start here, but there is a conflict in the test results.
                                                                                                                                                                  awaiting your comments,
                                                                                                                                                                      hardphil.

mancave4me,
                    the answer to the question is yes/and yes again. with one comes the other. i still have the problem even after uninstalling and reinstalling the apple apps. it's a thing which plagues pc users. it isn't an issue for my hp laptop however and that intrigues me. i'm no whiz kid with this stuff, but when you pass the connectivity test and it says your iPod is there. then, you fail the sync test because it tells you it is not there. somethings amiss at the circle k. i smell conflict. this is easily solved. just use my laptop for iTunes unless you have a working solution.
that's the way i see this. it's not the end of the world by a far stretch. let me know if you have a solution. thanks for your concern.                                                                                               sincerely, hardphil.

Not sure, but iAd Producer probably has nothing to do with this.
Did you try posting in a forum that discusses iPhone, or FaceTime, or networking?

I have HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but no audio from my new Apple TV. I have checked all connections and the video is xlnt. Have also toggled thru every possible Dolby/Audio combination in settings. Help! Any suggestions?

I have an HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but there is non audio from my Apple TV. Not for movies, music, YouTube etc.   I have checked all of the connections and the video is xlnt. Have also toggled thru all possible Dolby/Audio combinations in settings. Help! Any suggestions?

Hello again Parker -
The basic setup is Digital Cable Box, DVD Player, Denon Receiver/Amp and TV Monitor. To that I added the Apple TV. The Receiver only has two HDMI IN slots (one for cable and one for the DVD) and one out to the Monitor.
[I bought a switcher to toggle the DVD and the AppleTV back and forth but just disconnected the DVD to simplify when I ran in to trouble.]
So now I have:
     HDMI from the Cable Box to the Receiver
     HDMI from the Apple TV to the Receiver (in the old DVD slot which always worked well)
     HDMI from the Receiver to the Monitor
     RCA's from the Receiver to the Subwoofer and the other speakers
In addition I have some backup connections:
     S-Video, Optical Audio and L/R RCA's from the Cable Box to the Receiver
     S-Video from the Receiver to the Monitor
Wait - JUST FOUND IT!
By going thru the excercise to track all of the connections per your suggestion, I found an anomaly when I switched Receiver sockets for the HDMI links. The video moved but the audio didn't. Turns out the monitor was using the optical audio feed from the receiver. So I disconnected the optical audio and the monitor automatically switched to the HDMI audio feed!   Looked promising...
So I first connected an optical audio feed from the ATV to the receiver - Audio! Then I pulled it, but the audio didn't switch to the HDMI feed. It stopped. Would be OK if all I was going to use is the ATV, but I need the DVD player too and I can't use a switcher to toggle between them if I have to unplug the optical audio each time.
This is becoming a career! Any suggestions?

Same here.... No fix. Replacing is the option apparently and if you're out of warranty, you're SOL. That was as per the "Genius" at Apple.

If I have a new apple ID and password do I lose all of my old apps if I sync under the new apple ID?

If I have a new apple ID and password, do I lose all of my old apps if I sync to my new apple ID?

I'll ask my question differently. I have multiple devices and I sync them to my itunes account. For one of my devices, I gave it to a family member. I changed my itunes password and did not give it to the family member who has one of my devices. Will they be able to update applicable apps not having the new password?
Also, if that family member opens their own itunes account and purchase apps and sync the phone, will they lose all the apps that was purchased from my itunes account?

Hi rhiess,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPad may not have restored fully. I'd recommend restoring it again with the iPad in recovery mode.
Use the steps in this article to place your iPad in recovery mode:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

After placing your iPad in recovery mode, use the steps in this article to troubleshoot the connection between it and your computer:

If you still don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
Best Regards,
Jeremy
