Drum drops out when Export to iTunes
hi, im using DFH2 in garageband and ive got 4 guitar tracks with eq and pynamics processors on them as well as the drums, everytime i try and use export to itunes and try to listen to the final audio file in itunes im getting alot of dropouts on the drum tracks, does anyone know why this would be occuring and how i can stop it?
thanks
I just experienced the same problem this very momemt but with some variation.
I exported 10 songs from GB to iTunes (as mixes), 8 of the songs played perfectly in iTunes but on one of the songs the drums were barely audible even though they were at the right levels during mixdown. Stranger yet: The other song had ALL the tracks completely silent EXCEPT for the drums I always mix with 100% LOCKED tracks so I'm stumped as why this happened. Fortunately all was well when I imported those two songs again. Both songs only contained about 8 tracks each. The other thing that concerns me is that the arrow often appears red during importing but I've never had dropouts before. I don't recall what the color was during the importing of the two "error songs" but all the tracks were locked and there were very few tracks. I thought locking all tracks was the silver bullet in preventing errors. This is kind of daunting because pretty soon I am going to be importing about 100 individual tracks to iTunes which will be burned as audio files and dumped to Pro tools. It would be very difficult to listen to EVERY track for errors but perhaps this won't happen with individual tracks. Besides locking tracks I know the other tips to saving CPU power and such but these songs had so few tracks and uncomplicated data in the instrumentation. It seems very odd.
Sorry for the long post!

Sound drop out when exporting to Quicktime movie.
One track of three sound tracks drops out after a few seconds then reappears a few seconds later when exporting to QT Movie. The project functions perfectly when printing to video. Am using QT 7.1.3 FCE HD 3
Hi(Bonjour)!
Try to make an "audio-mixdown" of your final sequence
in timeline.
Michel Boissonneault
Thanks for the info. I managed to overcome the problem initially by copying onto miniDV then re-capturing and exporting the result., but Mix Down is much nicer.
However, prior to upgrading to FCE-HD, I am fairly certain I have made more complex projects with no problems. Now quite frequently I get a message suggesting I reduce the number of RT tracks, or increase the speed of my computer. Is there something in FCE HD that requires these modifications, or have I a rogue project.
Does anyone know what is the actual difference between High Medium & Low qualities with Audio & Video?
Thanks

Gradients dropping out when opening PDFs in Illustrator
Hi everyone. I work for a large format printing company. We receive thousands of files every year from many different designers. We started to notice that gradients would drop out of some PDFs when opening them in Illustrator but they would preview fine when opened in Acrobat. I searched high and low for an explanation for this glitch. The only response I received is "Stop opening exported PDFs in Illustrator." This is an unsatisfactory answer for someone that needs to preflight directly in the Illustrator program. I've done a ton of research and have been racking my brain for the last 2 years and have finally found sufficient workarounds for this issue. The downfall with these workarounds: all spot colors located in the gradients will convert to CMYK mixes. I'm still researching to see if there is a way to keep spot colors intact in these areas.
A little back story: InDesign is converting the gradients into something called NChannel. It enables more accurate handling of color blending by including additional dot gain and color mixing info. Both InDesign and Acrobat have the ability to display these elements whereas Illustrator, from what I’m finding, does not. Which is why we’re seeing gradient elements drop out when opened in Illustrator.
Workaround for CMYK Gradients
Open PDF exported from INDD in Acrobat
Go to Tools > Print Production > Convert Colors
Object Type: Smooth Shade (this tells Acrobat to hone in on Gradients only)
Color Type: DeviceCMYK
Check Embed next to Conversion Profile (should be SWOP)
Expand Document Colors on the right and Select DeviceCMYK in Color Spaces then click ok
Save the PDF
Workaround for 1 Spot Color in Gradients (Converts Spot Color located in Gradient to CMYK – all other Spots stay intact)
Open PDF exported from INDD in Acrobat
Go to Tools > Print Production > Convert Colors
Object Type: Smooth Shade (this tells Acrobat to hone in on Gradients only)
Color Type: Spot Color
Check Embed next to Conversion Profile (should be SWOP)
Expand Document Colors on the right and Select the Spot that is located in the Gradient in Color Spaces then click ok
Save the PDF
Workaround for 2 Spot Colors in Gradients (Converts Spot Colors located in Gradient toCMYK – all other Spots stay intact)
Open PDF exported from INDD in Acrobat
Go to Tools > Print Production > Convert Colors
Object Type: Smooth Shade (this tells Acrobat to hone in on Gradients only)
Color Type: Spot Color
Check Embed next to Conversion Profile (should be SWOP)
Expand Document Colors on the right and Select the DeviceN spot color that is located in the Gradient in Color Spaces then click ok
Save the PDF
Please test it and let me know if you run into any issues with these workarounds. I'm always looking for new problems to solve!
- Jennyyou said--"...needs to preflight directly in the Illustrator program. I've done a ton of research and have been racking my brain for the last 2 years and have finally found sufficient workarounds for this issue"
Your workarounds seem time consuming and (possibly) unnecessary for the following reasons:
1. large format printers use 4-8 colors to achieve color (so spot colors shouldn't be an issue)
2. Acrobat Pro has it's own 'preflight' function that works fairly well
additionally (don't know if you know this) there is an add-on to acrobat called 'Pitstop' (google it) that allows just about any change/correction/alteration to be made to a PDF
...and...opening a PDF in illustrator (that wasn't created in illustrator--do you know how to determine this?) can lead to many problems i.e. gradients dropping out, text reflow, etc.
as far as testing your workarounds, seriously, who has the time when there are tools available that make using them unnecessary (this assumes that you have created these 'workarounds' to match your worflow--but a nearly pure PDF workflow should work in this day and age, depending on your RIP and software). -
Tables dropping out when saving PDF files
I have saved a document through writing to PDF in the Print dialog and also by exporting as PDF, but with the same results. In a 40 page document 3 of the tables get dropped out when saving so all I get is blank space where they should be.
Perhaps related is an interesting printing problem. When I print the entire document these same three tables are missing. But if I go back and print only the pages they appear on then the tables will print.
Any suggestions?Happens with a Konika-Minolta Magicolor, a Brother 1470-N and an HP Laserjet.

SCCM remote control keeps dropping out when another network adaptor loses connection
Hey guys,
Hopefully someone will be able to help me out
at work, we are running SCCM 2012, and I use SCCM 2012 config manager to manage the clients etc
We have a particularly annoying issue with SCCM remote control; it constantly drops out when a network connection on the client machine disconnects or changes state, even if its not interface I'm remote controlling through
Here's an example for you:
a laptop with a wired, and wireless connection:
I remote control the machine through the wired network address (lets say 192.168.0.1), but if the wireless connection drops out (someone turns it off or it breaks) the remote control client will kick me off, lock the screen, and I have to wait 20-30 seconds
before it will accept my connection again
This happens with any network adaptor that's installed on the client
Here is a copy of the logs re-creating this issue: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nu4w28d44xky3rg/CmRcService.log
(I've edited it to take out usernames and IP addresses as they are publicly accessible)
So my question, does any one know how to fix this issue? I see it uses WMI, is there anyway to get WMI to ignore an interface?
Thanks heaps,
HarryThis is going to be done by design for security reasons. If the network connect for whatever reason is down the pc will automatically be locked.

I have a band video that I want to edit. In iMove 09, I could clip to crop or add a transition or both without altering the audio. In iMovie 11, the audio lower or drops out when I clip for and use a transtion. Is there a setting to preven this?
Thanks for that info! Even in my time answering questions on iMovie Discussion Group, I never had a good understanding of when and how Optimize Movie came into play. I always would import as Optimized and Large Size and figured that was good enough. But knowing you got much, much more flexibility doing it the way you describe gives me a much better understanding of the different routes you can take into the Event Library.

I have two WD external hard drives that i keep all my video files, music and adobe premiere pro cs5 projects on. Up until 2 days ago they were working perfect, now they drop out when i try and load my projects from them, or watch a movie from them. tried restoring from two weeks ago and nothing changed. I get that error msg when i try and load something. The error msg is the one that comes up when you disconnect a usb drive without ejecting it correct. I don't think its the drives as i only use one most the time, and the other just sits there not connected, but that are now having the same issues. Help me plaza
yea i am using the right sequence
here are 4 screen shots of 2 different things i was editing, both used to record my xbox 360 with Hauppauge, Seems adobe is the only program playing the video file with the audio out of sync/mixed up

ADSL Broadband keeps dropping out when trying to u...
Hi, hope someone can offer some advice please.
Our connection seems to have got a lot slower over the last few months (about 2.64 on a very good day) and now keeps dropping out when trying to use either the laptop or PS3. I have followed the advice on the self help guide and tried changing the ADSL filter, moved the hub away from the telephone, re-booting the hub and tried using it directly in the test socket and none of these have solved the problem. I have done a line test from work and it says there are no problems with the line??? I am getting really annoyed as we only have the phone line so we can use the internet so are paying over £40 a month for service we cant even use. I get the impression that as there are so many users on ADSL where I live (we dont have fibre optic yet) that it is too much for the exchange and that BT are upping peoples connections when they complain thus making other peoples worse (we had this problem about a year ago and complained and it was ok for a while)
Could this be true? Or am I just thinking too much in to it? And does anyone have any suggestions on how I could resolve the problem? I have had a bad experiance with being charged for an engineers visit in the past (eventually refunded) so would like to avoid having to get them involved if possible.
Thanks in advance.you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems) http://speedtester.bt.com or http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/9354/c/346,4740,5520 and post the results .
Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

Why does my email drop out when I access my group contacts list
Why does my email drop out when I access my group contacts list
Hi Helen
I think (from the other forum you posted to previously) that you are asking how to send email to a group in your address book, or other group of email addresses? You will need a third party app to do this, a number of which are available from the App Store.
Our MailShot Pro app is unique, as it can turn addressbook groups into special contacts that you can use from any Mail-compatible app on your iPad (Such as Mail, Photos, Maps etc.) as though the ability to send to groups were built into your device.
You can find MailShot Pro here on the App Store

File Name Associations Drop Out When Changing Project Name
Posting on behalf of a colleague. He's using Robohelp X5 on a
Windows XP computer.
"We have frequent occasions in which we must take an existing
online help project (ABC_001, for example), make some
tweaks/additions/omissions, and release a revised online help
project (ABC_002). We have been cloning the existing help project
(ABC_001), renaming the project, making the necessary changes to
the help project, adding or deleting map IDs in .hh files as
necessary, importing revised .hh files as necessary, and then
releasing the project under the new name. We want to maintain map
ID numbers and assignments (25ANG1, Map #: 640, File name:
Synchronism Check#25ANG1) from ABC_001 to ABC_002, but the File
name associations drop out when we change the project name. It is
then a laborious process to go through the list and reassign all
the topics to the appropriate File names. Is there any way to
maintain topic labels with their map ID numbers and their File name
associations from one project to another?"
TIAMy colleague's reply:
"I discovered that it requires just one more step in the help
project before I can actually see the file name
associations/aliases again. I have to recompile, as Colum
recommended, but then I have to close down RoboHelp and reopen the
project. Then, if I am in Project View and navigate to
Context-Sensitive Help/Map Files/All Map IDs, I can see all of the
file name associations again. Thank you, Colum, for your
help!" -

Why. does audio drop out when scrubbing iMovie events?
If the audio returns if you slow down scrubbing you are probably just scrubbing too quickly.

ITunes drops out when streaming to a stereo
recently - the last couple of months - when I have my iTunes streaming vie airport to my stereo, tracks drop out (go silent) for a second or two every 20 or so seconds. It makes no difference which track is playing. It is beyond frustrating.
I've installed all of the latest updates, I've tried quitting iTunes, rebooting etc, but to no avail. The thing is, it's not consistent - it doesn't happen every time - more like 50% of the time.
Any ideas? Is it likely to be interruptions in the wireless network? I live in a Manhattan apartment building. Could it be interruptions due to my mac processing other data?
I'm at a loss & it's driving me madI was reading another thread and this worked perfectly for me. I kept trying to get this computer authorized and it would time out everytime. All I did was go up to the store menu, sign out, and sign back in. Nothing timed out, I was able authorize and I am back to listening to music again.
