Desperately seeking help with recording and playback error messages...

When I attempt to record a single track of audio (either with my internal mic or my Samson USB mic), I get the following message 15 to 30 sec into it:
CoreAudio:
Disk is too slow. (Record)
(-10004)
And when I attempt to playback that single track of a little bit of audio I recorded, I get the following message:
This song has too many instrument tracks to be played in real-time.
I have tried all the steps to solve the problem under "Optimizing Garageband" in the Help menu and nothing has worked.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions that anyone has as to how I could get rid of these messages and actually enable myself to record a full song at some point in the conceivable future...

I'm guessing that your computer is too slow to record
real-time audio.
Of itself it should be fine - I still use a G3 desktop to record stereo with no problems at all - though GB may add an overhead. Still, this shouldn't be happening.
If you have other tracks playing
while you are recording this could be an issue,
especially if there are a lot playing.
Yes...
If this is the
case then you can lock the tracks playing by pressing
the lock icon.
This won't make any difference to audio tracks, only to MIDI tracks, and in that case it reduces demands on the processor but increases demands on the disk - which appears to be the trouble in the first place.
I agree that you should consider
getting an external hard drive. You can set the
record path to the external hard drive
Since laptop disks are usually slower than external ones this might help - particularly if your internal drive is very full.
which will
free up working memory to your computer.
No it won't, but it will take the strain off the internal disk, if that's what you mean. The memory might be an issue, which would be resolved by installing more RAM if possible.

  • Help with Oracle AS Portal Error Messages

    Hi
    Our Application basically consists of a number of Reports which display data from a database, and Forms which will allow the insert of data in the table that the form is based on...
    The application is used by business users.
    I need assistance with the error messages that appear on Oracle Portal if something goes wrong - wrong data entered on a form for the database table, some error with a trigger that is called on the table where data is being inserted/ updated etc...
    Currently, when an error occurs on the form (when you are trying to insert data into the database), the following errors can appear (this is an example of the actual format.)
    Error: Internal error (WWC-00006)
    An unexpected error occurred: ORA-20001: aft person ins
    ORA-06512: at "RFS.RFS_AFT_INS", line 41
    ORA-12899: value too large for column "RFS"."RFS_PERSON"."USER_ID" (actual: 22, maximum: 20)
    ORA-04088: error during execution of trigger 'RFS.RFS_AFT_INS' (WWV-16016)
    While this error will tell a developer what to do, it will not really tell an end user what the problem is...
    I have started to edit the functions/ procedures that are used/ triggered from the forms to display a message in more or less the following format.
    RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001,'PLEASE NOTE: There is no XXX data for the XXX used. Please contact your administrator to assist.',TRUE);
    What I want to know is, by changing the functions on the database etc, will I be catering for the errors, and will the message that I create be displayed to the user, or will they still see the original error message above?
    Are there ways to display a more user-friendly error, even if just to say "Contact your administrator..." or something?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    By editing the default error messages, there is a risk the next patch or patch set to overwrite your customizations. A better approach would be to create custom error page(s) for Portal forms/reports.
    Please refer to Metalink Note: 157132.1 How to Create a Custom Error Page for Portal Form.
    Thanks.

    how would I go about upgrading from tiger to  leopard?
    Buy Leopard, insert disk, follow instructions.
    You can instal php (which is built into Leopard) by renaming a file and uncommenting a line then enabling web sharing in System Preferences but I use entropy because it has the GD enabled for CAPTCHA and other features. There's a 10.4 version on their website but it mentions it's an older, unsupported and probably insecure version. You should use entropy Leopard version 5.2.9-7 for Leopard/ADDT development.
    After you get php installed you need to install MySQL which is easy to find through searching and straight-forward to instal. Then instal phpMyAdmin and you'll be good to go!
    As mentioned earlier I can walk you through the steps more thoroughly if you decide to upgrade to Leopard. There's some other steps involved: You need to configure virtual hosts so that it points to your Sites folder on your Mac and each folder in Sites folder are for each site you have so that entering site1 goes to ~/Sites/site1 on local testing server and entering site2 goes to ~/Sites/site2 in local testing server, etc. very, very easy to setup. Just edit hidden hosts file in etc folder and username.config file in apache2 hidden folder.
    There's other tutorials out there that show how to do it but most don't have all the info. I'm working on a step-by-step tutorial on my website but it's not finished yet. Maybe it'll be ready by the time you decide to upgrade to Leopard.

  • You tube is not working since yesterday and playback error message is showing, is it happening to anyone else and what is the solution?

    Since yesterday all you tube videos is giving playback error message

    I know I'm replying to an out-dated post. But problems are never outdated.
    I had done all the above too. But the answer to my problem was to change the DNS server number (should have done this first when the "playback error"  persisted.:/).  Take a screenshot of your original DNS number for future necessity, then change it to OpenDNS..or google DNS...I used google DNS...for complete & thorough instructions..follow this site:--> http://www.macinstruct.com/node/558

  • Need help with Photoshop and Runtime Error

    Runtime Error Photoshop & MS Visual C++ WIN7 32bit Photoshop will appear to launch then dies with a ('MS Visual C++ Runtime Error!' = Application requested the runtime to terminate it  an unusual manner. Contact application's support team for more information).
    Anyone have clue as to how this can be fixed and not lose all currently loaded brushes, styles, actions, etc?

    You need to provide much more info, like exact system specs and crash details:
    Working with your Operating System’s Tools
    Also hold down Ctrl+Alt+Shift during program startup to reset the prefs to defaults. If the error is caused by damaged presets, actions or whatever, then you will lose some of that, otehrwise they will be untouched.

  • Desperately Seeking Help with AIR

    Hello,
    I LOVE my Air and am so dismayed that it is not working for me. Coincidence or not, it all started after Apple fixed my broken hinge. Up till then, it worked perfectly. Here is what's going on.
    When I shut my Air down, it will not restart. The drive starts up, spins but the screen never changes from black. I put a snow leopard installation disk into the optional disk drive and re-installed the operating system on to the hard drive. It then boots up and I have the hard drive working with everything that was on it before I did the installation. If i put it to sleep and wake it up, it works. If I shut it down, I am back to where I started. I've reinstalled it 5 times with the same results everytime. But now it starts up and gives me the flashing apple with question mark sign.
    What can I do? I would be greatly appreciative of any help. Thank you so much!

    Take it back and tell them to fix it or replace it. I will be sending mine back for a full refund this week.
    No way am i putting up with all these bugs...won't start...won't wake from sleep....won't charge when off....on a computer of this price.
    This will be my first mac returned for a refund since I have been with them these many years, but this machine is bugged and there is no way i am going to live with endless trips to the repair shop only to see things get worse, especially after surgery. APPLE ARE YOU LISTENING?

  • Need Help with my School Assignment - Error Message

    Hey guys,
    I'm doing a school assignment for my Object Oriented Java programing class. Here's the assignment requirements:
    "There are five kinds of flowers, and their associated costs. Create an array of strings that holds the names of these flowers. Create another array that holds the cost of each corresponding flower. Your program should read the name of a flower and the quantity desired by a customer. Locate the flower in the name array and use that index to find the cost per stem in the cost array. Compute and print the total cost of the sale. Write your solution in one class: FlowerCounterArray.
    The solution should implement the following two methods:
    - addOrder(String flowerName, int quantity) to add to the order. This is in addition to reading from the terminal.
    - printTotal() to print out the total cost to the terminal."
    I wrote up some code so far and I want to test it, but I am getting this error: "']' expected" on the newFlower[0] = new FlowerCounterArrays("petunia", 0.50]; line near the end of the code.
    Here's my code:
    public class FlowerCounterArrays {
        private String flowerName;
        private double price;
        public void addOrder(String flowerName, int quantity) {
            for (FlowerCounterArrays flower : newFlower) {
                if (flower.equals(flowerName)) {
                    total = price * quantity;
                    System.out.println("The price for " + quantity + " " + flower + "(s) is " + total);
                else {
                    System.out.println("Unfortunately we do not carry that type of flower here.");
        public void printTotal() {
            System.out.println(total);
        FlowerCounterArrays[] newFlower = new FlowerCounterArrays[5];
        newFlower[0] = new FlowerCounterArrays("petunia", 0.50];
        newFlower[1] = new FlowerCounterArrays("pansy", 0.75);
        newFlower[2] = new FlowerCounterArrays("rose", 1.50);
        newFlower[3] = new FlowerCounterArrays("violet", 0.50);
        newFlower[4] = new FlowerCounterArrays("carnation", 0.80);
    }Thanks for the help guys! Much appreciated!

    Ok. I'm kind of new to all this, so some stuff I'm not 100% clear on.
    I get what you're saying though. I put the array into the method.
    Although now I get a new errod: "cannot find symbol - constructor FlowerCounterArrays(java.lang.String,double)"
    I get this error on my newFlower[0] = new FlowerCounterArrays("petunia", 0.50); line
    Here's my new code:
    public class FlowerCounterArrays {
        private String flowerName;
        private double price;
        public void addOrder(String flowerName, int quantity) {
            FlowerCounterArrays[] newFlower = new FlowerCounterArrays[5];

  • Can't login with gdm and get error message

    Hey, I had an arch install up and running last night. I was tinkering with gnome themes, and installed a bunch and eventually tried to mess with the login screen. I installed something, I think like gnome-settings-manager or something like that, and it basically never worked. I tried to change the login BG and some stuff, but couldn't do it, the program would freeze.
    About an hour later, I realized chrome wouldn't run, and I had to use the default browser. I restarted and then when I logged back in, I have a black login screen with an error that says "Install Problem: the configuration defaults for gnome power manager have not been installed correctly please contact your computer administrator."
    When I try to login, it starts like it's going to work, but then brings me back to the same screen.
    So basically I can't login at the moment, I tried pacman -Runs gnome gdm gnome-setting-manager gamin gksu
    and then pacman -S gnome gdm gksu gamin
    but that still gives me the same screen.
    Any ideas where to go from here?

    Just my 2 cents, seeing that nobody is replying...
    You could try to create another user and see if it works well, just to understand if it's a problem in the user configuration files, or in the system configuration.
    If the new user works well you could try to import your config files from your /home/user/ folder one by one and see which one messes up everything.
    If the new user has the same problems, it's a more serious problem, maybe you could try to remove packages one by one (pacman -Rscn package), starting from the last one you installed (you can list packages by installation date using yaourt -Qe --date) until it works again (taking care of not removing essential packages).

  • I need help with a print spooler error message

    Out of the blue I lost my printer connection.  When I look at my printer menu there is no printer listed.  When I try to add or install a printer, I get some odd message about a printer spooler is not running.  Restart the machine.  I've tried unhooking the printer, rebooting, unhooking from the power source.  I even went into some area as an administrator and found the print spool task and when I clicked on the start button there was no action.

    This is a MS Windows issue. Try this:
    Right click on My Computer
    Select Manage
    Double click on Services and Application
    Double click on Services
    Scroll down to Print Spooler and double click on it
    Click on Dependencies tab
    Check what dependencies the print spooler has, if any you may need to click on + on those dependencies to more dependencies
    Go back to the Services list
    On each of the spooler dependencies, double click on it
    Make sure it is set to Automatic in the Startup Type drop down menu
    Now click on Start to start the service
    Click OK
    Now try and print.
