Embarrassed to ask - monitor issue

When I'm bouncing between recording with a mic and listening, how can I make the mic silent when I'm listening (besides unplugging it)? Is there an automatic feature so that the mic will only be hot when I have the 'record' button in red on the recording track?
So basic, but can't figure it through the manual.
Thanks!

It depends on what gear you are using and how you are monitoring the mic signal.
If you are using software monitoring and monitoring it through Logic, it will only be "live" when a track is record-enabled.
If you are monitoring directly through the interface, then Logic has no control over the signal, and you must do it using the audio interface's features.

Multiple Monitor Issue

Alright, so I have a 15" Macbook Pro with the dual graphics cards (GeForce 9600M GT and GeForce 9400M GT 256 version). It's the 2.66 intel processor one. Anyway, I've been trying to figure out this dual monitor issue that I've been having for a few days now. When I'm using the 9400M card and I plug into my mini displayport everything works just fine. This includes the VGA cord, the HDMI, as well as a standard Apple monitor. Now, when I switch over to the higher end graphics card, as soon as I plug into the mini displayport my screen goes black. And that's it. I can't do anything. I have to hold the power button down until the computer turns off.
I've been searching for days in order to find an answer to this question or if anyone has ever had a similar problem and no one could help me. I even went to the genius bar and no one could help either. Keep in mind I've tried this in a variety of ways. I've plugged the monitor in after the computer was running, I've had it plugged in while the computer was turning on, and each time after the initial boot up everything goes black.
To make matters worse, I originally came across this issue because I use Windows 7 on bootcamp and I wanted to use dual monitors within Windows. Bootcamp is only set to use the 9600M graphics card which is the one giving me all the heartache and apparently there's no way around it. If anyone has the slightest clue as to what's going on here or why it would be doing such a thing, let me know. Thanks.

Jon: Thanks for answering those questions. Run the Apple Hardware Test that you'll find on one of the DVDs that came with your MBP. If any errors are reported, go back to the Genius Bar with the error codes reported by AHT and ask to have the machine repaired.
If you have extended AppleCare protection, you have a TechTool Deluxe CD/DVD. You can also use that to test your hardware. If it reports any errors, take the exact wording and error codes from that report along with you to the GB, too.
The problem is not with your three external displays or your cables, adapters, or your MBP's mini-Displayport, because they all work fine with the 9400M. The problem isn't some wrong contact that's being made momentarily as you insert the mini-Displayport plug into the port, because it occurs even when the cable is securely connected before starting up the computer. It seems to me the problem must reside either in your 9600M GT or in its connection to the mini-displayport.

Trouble with color on Presario, No red tones on display. Not a monitor issue.

Am experiencing trouble with color on Presario, model no. CQ5500F. Purchased a couple of years ago, and trouble was present immediately. Am getting no red tones - red items appear black or sometimes blue. Was told by HP that it was a monitor issue, and let computer slide out of warranty. installed new monitor today and problem still exists. Is this merely a display adjustment of some kind? Or will I have to pay HP their $99 for a one time fix? Any suggestions appreciated.

Hello UncleBob62,
It could be the display driver that is not properly working
1. Click on the start icon
2. Right click on computer and go to properties
3. Select Device Manager
4. Expand display adapters and right click on the video card driver and uninstall
The computer screen will go blank
On the keyboard press the windows key the right arrow key twice and then the letter R.
At this point your computer is going to reboot. After the reboot Windows will install generic drivers for your video card. Do you still see a lack of red tones?

Dataguard Interview questions and most frequeently asked DG issues

Hi Gurus,
I am new to this forum and happy to be a part of it.
Can someone help me in posting " Dataguard Interview questions and most frequeently asked DG issues" as i am preparing for the interviews.
And also share the enhancements to DG in 11g.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not impressed by any of the questions at any of the linked sites provided so here are the one's I would expect someone to be able to answer:
1. What is the difference between Physical and Logical Data Guard in terms of how they work and how they are used in the enterprise?
2. What is the difference between vanilla Data Guard and Active and Snapshot?
3. How do you enable the Data Guard Broker process and why and when would you want to?
4. Who is Larry Carpenter and why should you care?
5. What parameters in using orapwd are critical for success?
6. What would you recommend as a value for SEND_BUF_SIZE and why?
7. Given a primary production database, and a full RMAN backup that takes 1 hour to fully restore ... how long would it take you to implement Physical Data Guard from the time you started working?
If the answer to question 7 is greater than 2 hours ... my assumption would be that you probably had never done it before and it wouldn't matter that you got the first six questions correct.

I'm embarrassed to ask, but...

I feel like a blithering idiot having to ask this question but when I post a question on the Discussion Board and someone replies to my post how can I reply to them? I set no Reply link to click. I've had this problem for some time but I've been too embarrassed to ask for the solution. It's good to know I'm not the only blithering idiot out there though. I just spent over one hour on the phone with Verizon tech support and after that hour of trying they couldn't figure out how to do they reply either.
Would someone please tell me how to do this?
Thanks in advance... Bob

I assume this is Apple Mail. Try this:
Preferences > Accounts > your-first-account
Select Outgoing Mail Server of account/name you wish to use and check Use only this server
Repeat for other accounts.

Embarrassed to ask

I'm a little embarrassed to ask these questions but here goes. I would like to use a quicktime movie on my site but I don't know how many people actually have the plug in (I've ruled out flash for now). 1. Is it possible to have a pic in place of the movie for those who don't have the plug-in so that they don't get the big blue Q?
2. What exactly is a poster frame?
Thanks all,
David

You can always put a line saying that they need to have QT to see the movie and provide a link to get it, if they don't have it. So that if they get the big Q they will know. Everyone has at one time or other met that even with flash. I think people are used to it now. Beside it is up to us to educate the windows crowd. I provide links to firefox and safari on every page I make.

Graphics card issue or monitor issue?

Hello, i have a MacPro 2.66 w/ an ATI x1900 and a MacBookPro with th nVidia 8600
i recently purchased a 28" Hanns-g Display which i upgraded from my 20" apple cinema display, im curious if this could be a graphic issue or a monitor issue:
When i connect the 28" monitor to my ATI card (port 1) and boot into 10.4.10 (macPro) i noticed diagonal lines that seem to "scroll" (like an overscan line or something) on greyish and lighter backgrounds.
tried it with the second port, same thing, it does it on all resolutions
(it runs @ 1920x1200).
when i boot into XP and try the same sites i did in 10.4.10 it doesnt do it at all, its as it should.
I tried both VGA>DVI and HDMI>DVI to the ATI on OSX but it only does it with the HDMI>DVI connection under OSX, VGA looks fine.
(btw my ati card is clean as a whistle, no dust or anything)
However if i plug it into my MacBookPRo with hdmi>DVI it doesnt do that at all.
so im wondering probably incompatible monitor or what?
im looking to getting a 30" Apple Display but not if its gonna act up like that on my macpro, none of this appeared on my ACD 20".
any suggestions or tips?
thanks!

im not experiencing scan line son my 30" ACD display under OSX or XP with my ATI, could be the monitor you are using, but if its not doing it with your MBP than.....idk
sonds strange, try another gfx card or another macpro if possible.

I'm a MAC beginner; embarrassed to ask: Although Word, Pages,Key note show in my app list, they won't open. With Word, I get a pop-up that says it won't open, and then has numerals 1712. Just downloaded Flip Player 2 days ago..what should I do pls??

It is possible the versions you have are not compatible with your new Mac. Could you please tell us the following:
1. What OS are you running.
To get this info, click on the Apple on the top left, then select About This Mac. The OS X version is there.
2. What are the versions of the apps that are giving you problems?
To get this info, double click on the hard drive icon and open the Applications folder. Select an application and right click on it. Then select Get Info. The version number is there.

Not sure I understand your reference to Flip Player - this is not related to the "won't open" problem, is it?

Playing off the Timeline via firewire( XdCam pal) Monitoring Issues

Hey,
I have just switched to FCP and have found that when recording the from the FCP timeline manually via firewire into a Sony XDCam PDW530 I experience 4:3 flashes in the Camera monitor and viewfinder as the timeline plays down Video Transitions. All effects have been rendered (Blue line above transition)
However the Camera appears to record correctly to disc. I played the recorded material from the camera via an XD deck into a wide screen monitor and all appears fine the 4:3 flashes are not present on transitions. play the disc back in the camera and the 4:3 flashes for the duration of the Video Transitions return????
when playing out of the Camera via SDI and Analogue Composite outputs into a wide screen monitor all appears ok as well.
It's a little odd that you cannot monitor the output correctly on the XDcam. If i change the pull down settings from 2323 to 2332 it monitors the transitions correctly but the video aspect is somewhere between 4:3 and 16:9.
Shoot in 16:9 Capture DV Pal, Edit DV Pal, Playback Output Apple FireWire Pal (720 x 576)
Any ideas????

Thanks Shane,
We have been down the PRINT TO VIDEO road with the same playback issues in the XD Camera's LCD screen. We still see the 4:3 transition on the 16:9 image when playing off the timeline / playing back the recorded media in the camera and viewing on cameras screen .
I guess this is only a monitor issue. If you don't include any video effects it plays down 16:9 perfectly in the cameras monitor
What is recorded onto the disc is fine.
Also my understanding is the what's coming off the timeline is a DV stream so not sure how the GOP format comes into play. Recording onto a XD Cam off the timeline thru other edit programmes has never been an issue. I have come from Avid Pinnacle and the monitoring of transitions was never an issue when streaming back to the xdcam.
Thanks

Server 2012 Dual Monitor Issue - Can't Get it to work properly.

I have a HP Proliant ML310e that runs Server 2012 R2. It came with an on-board VGA graphics adapter, that was using a Microsoft Basic Display Adapter driver and working fine.
Needing to run dual monitors, I contacted HP and purchased a Nvida K2000 PCIE graphics card. I installed it using their latest drivers and rebooted, making sure that the new PCIE card was enabled in the BIOS.
While booting, the server actually now displayed on the new 'second' monitor connected to the newly installed Nvida card. When I actually logged in and went into the display properties, it was only detecting the new display - I couldn't even force detect
the original display.
Also, when I go into device Manger, it now only shows the Nvidia graphics adapter - no longer shows that the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter is present.
Any advice on how to get dual monitors to work on Server 2012. I did try the Windows/P Projector display, but that did nothing.
Thanks,

Hi,
You should check your BIOS settings - some motherboard will disable onboard display card once a PCI(E) card is plugged in. This is a hardware settings issue. If HP support is available, ask them for detailed configuration steps.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

2nd Monitor issue

I've been using a 2nd Monitor (ViewSonic 1080p) with my MacBook for several years. After recent upgrade to Snow Leopard, MacBook no longer recognizes the 2nd monitor in the Preferences. Monitor/cables are fine and work with another laptop OK. Do I need a software upgrade?, or will I be forced to purchase an Apple monitor. Puzzled

Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion p6-2029uk Desktop Computer. According to the specs this model has Intergrated AMD HD Graphics that have been disabled by the factory installed discrete PCI Express x16 AMD Radeon HD 6450. The DVI-D port and VGA port behind the "plastic covers" will not work unless the discrete graphics card is removed.
Assuming the discrete AMD Radeon HD 6450 card has a DVD-I port and an HDMI port, you should be able to connect the monitors as follows;
Computer > HDMI-to-DVI cable > HP 2011 monitor
Computer > DVI-to-VGA adapter > VGA cable > secondary monitor
Alternatively, you could remove the discrete AMD Radeon HD 6450 card and use the integrated onboard DVI-D and VGA ports as follows;
Computer > DVI cable > HP 2011 monitor
Computer > VGA cable > secondary monitor
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

HP w2207 monitor issue no input

Is HP ever going to rectify the issue with no dvi or no input? The hp user community has been reporting this problem for years, over and over. It is so frustrating to have this msg in the middle of an important document such as taxes or a spreadsheet. Loosing all of that data and starting over is brutal and discouraging, and time consuming.
I would like the results of your testing for this issue to be posted, including dates and what resolution is being rolled out to compensate users of this apparently defective device. I should not have to buy another monitor because of your defect, and a warranty has no place when it comes to a defect! The item needs to be fixed or replaced by your organization and rolled out as an update period..

Hello i-cicle,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that your having issues with your HP w2207 monitor. The first thing we need to do is restore your monitor back to factory. Now since your monitor OCD menu does not show up in English we are going to approach this in a different manner.
When the main menu shows up I want you to look for a symbol that looks like the image below.
The image is the image for the Factory Reset. I want you to select that option and apply it. This should restore your monitor back to factory settings, since according page 4-5 of the User Guide for your monitor the factory default language is English we should once again be able to read the options available.
Now this potentially could resolve all of your issues with the monitor or at least some of them. I would ask that if there are any issues that are still unresolved that you re-post and I will endeavor to offer additional assistance. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

10.5.6 Update and External Monitor issues

I'm starting this new Thread in response to several people like myself who still cannot use an external monitor with a Macbook on this latest update. I did write to Steve Jobs about this issue and I received a call from Ireland assuring me that the graphics update would be incorporated into the new upgrade before Christmas. It clearly hasn't and, in the meantime, I replaced my hard-disk with a 320 Gb and installed Leopard up to 10.5.4 and was back in business. Now, I'm back to square one and can't use the monitor. So I will be writing to Mr Jobs again in the hope that someone takes notice that some of use Macs in a professional capacity. We're in a deep recession and the last thing we need right now are silly issues of this nature.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8631240#8631240

I'm not sure what to make of this at this point. I ordered a CTO 2.8GHz with 4GB RAM and 320GB HD the day they were announced. First week or so, few if any problems. Then the "UHF" like bands of static began to appear randomly. I use my computer 90% of the time driving an external monitor. I use a separate set up at home and work with duplicates of all cables. The problem occurs on both. I spoke with Apple Care - they patched me over to support and moved me up to Tier one pretty quick, even had me send in my System Profiler information for every combination of screen and graphics card. Then they emailed me a program to capture my monitor info again with every combination of screen and graphics card. No solution. They finally asked to "capture" my computer for their labs and sent me a new one.
Once again, about 2 1/2 weeks of smooth sailing and bam, same issues now occurring. If it's a driver issue, why is everything fine for so long? Also, 10.5.6 and the new firmware have failed to address. Given my above exchanges with Apple, they certainly can't claim they don't know about it.
I've been using Apple Products for a long time. I've seen some real buggy stuff - like when File Vault first came out but this is the worst I've experienced. Seems like poor quality control. If it's a select few machines, I appear to have won the lottery as I've had two of them.
I'm sure this issue is much more wide spread as it is a non-issue if you only use the internal display. Only people consistently driving an external display will even know there is a problem.

R9 270X Gaming 2G - Multiple Monitor Issues

Greetings MSI and Community
I recently purchased two MSI R9 270X Gaming 2G graphics cards and three Asus VS248H monitors.
I want to run the cards in Crossfire and activate Eyefinity which I understand requires the third monitor to be plugged into the DisplayPort using an active adapter.
The issue: I am unable to change the resolution (from 640 x 480) on any monitor that is NOT plugged into DVI-I or HDMI on the graphics card closest to the CPU.
Windows is able to identify the monitor plugged into the DVI-I port as VS248 however the monitor plugged into DVI-D (on the same card) or DisplayPort is identified as a Generic Non-PnP Monitor with the resolution drop down box greyed out.
I have tried the following:
- swapping the graphics cards
- swapping all of the connections to monitors
- disabling and re-enabling crossfire
- uninstalling and re-installing drivers; tried Catalyst Software Suite 13.9, 13.10, 13.11, 13.101 (on MSI's website).
I am currently running the latest Beta drivers because of fixes to the screen moving.
I have been uninstalling drivers using Driver Fusion Premium. Also tried uninstalling using ATIman however the result is the same.
I have spent about 20 hours trying to resolve this issue so if anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. I am honestly at the point that if I can't resolve this issue I will be returning both of the cards for another brand.
My specifications:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1 Operating System
AMD FX-8350 CPU
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0 (Socket 942) Motherboard

Thank you in advance for your time.

Perhaps your BSOD is related to the BSOD I got from not having updated my drivers thoroughly, and left old driver fragments.
See my post about it here: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=182037.msg1307746#msg1307746
I have not had a BSOD since I updated my driver in the correct way, by following the instructions laid out by the good people in this forum.
Link here: https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/where-can-i-download-vga-drivers-and-how-do-i-install-t
As far as the two problems I had with the power plan. They are resolved now.
After updating to the latest Intel Management Engine Drivers, the monitor is responding, as it should.
What is preventing the system from entering sleep mode, is unrelated to the GPU or any other hardware for that matter. Embarrassingly I did not run the CMD command "powercfg -requests" to find out, before I posted the question.
It seems I am a little too trigger happy posting questions here It is my internet connection that is preventing the system from entering hybrid sleep mode.

@ Svet and Badboy, thank you for your help.
One small question for you guys. If my system is stable now and as you can see from above the power plan problems non-existent, is there any point in flashing the BIOS to the Beta BIOS Svet pointed me too.
