Feeling really stupid...can't get this to work
Hi All,
Hoping someone can help me out here. I have a mac mini with 1gig ram. Tiger installed and I am trying to hook up my Yamaha P80 ditial piano to the mini. I am using an M-audio uno cable....midi to USB that my local mac store said would do the trick and get my piano into garageband. But I am not able to get it to work. Software is downloaded and was successful...keyboard is on and working fine just won't record into garageband....have tried using "real intrument" and the only choices I see do not include a piano....the grand piano is in the main track but I can't make it into my piano. Anyone get what I am trying to say and understand what the problem could be. I am so tired of searching and trying to find a similar situation so sorry if it does exist....I feel dumb. The only thing I can think could be a problem is I am running the piano through a stereo receiver so I can play it through speakers....could that be the problem?

Your piano should work perfectly fine as a midi controller, if you are using the midi out jack on the piano. The problem is that you are using "real instrument", you should be using "software instrument" and choosing a piano there. You cannot use your piano's onboard sound if you are plugging it into the computer through the midi jack. You have to use the Garageband software sounds. If you want to use your Yamaha's onboard sounds you have to go from your audio jack out on the piano, probably the 1/4" jacks, into an interface like a Tascam US-122 or an iMic and then into the computer. Then you can choose "real instrument", and you probably just want to select "basic track-no effects" to get the pure unadulterated sound from your computer.

I am using Numbers on my iPhone5 and cannot get the app to do a simple (SUM) calculation. It shows the formula correctly in the cell, but all I get for my long list of numbers to add is 0. How can I get this to work?
Oaky, at least we got that far. Next step is to determine if all those "numbers" are really numbers. Changing the format to "number" doesn't necessarily change the string to a number. The string has to be in the form of a number. Some may appear to you and me as numbers but will not turn into "numbers" when you change the formatting from Text to Number. Unless you've manually formatted the cells to be right justified, one way to tell if it is text or a number is the justification. Text will be justified to the left, numbers will be justified to the right.
Here are some that will remain as strings:
+123
123 with a space after it.

Negative (to inline a letter or to thin it) offset path does not work in Illus-CC 2014 (when preview is on- nothing happens). How can I get this to work like in previous versions.
Thanks for your quick reply. I tried a number of different values. Usually when I do a negative offset they're very small values, like -.25 or -.5.
An Update- I took the art work into Ai CS 6 and It still did not work, which is really strange. And I've used it hundreds of times with success in the past. Also I tried it with live type and outlines, ungrouped, un-compounded still could not get it to negative offset.
Thanks for the help. -
My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?
1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

If you mean hiding or unhiding apps, the article is incorrect since iOS 6 and the accompanying iTunes Store redesign were released. You can at this time only hide and unhide apps through iTunes on your computere.

Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent. This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account. Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?
You have to look at the email protocol being used. the Apple email system uses IMAP, does Tinyworld use IMAP or POP?
Does the email system permit delivery receipts to be requested?
Just some of the things one needs to determine from the information provided by the email service provider. -

I have installed the cars 2 app mate on a ipad 2 from an ipad 1 synced with itunes account.. all is working except this app. After many times of un installing and re installing aswell as talking to apple tech suport this app is still not working.... its there it just has no function...... how can i get this installed and working, my grandson is autistic and uses this app many hours a day........ it is important for me to get this up and running again for him.......
(1) So, I found a youtube video showing how to open up my iMac and replace a Disk drive. I opened it. I removed the disk drive. I opened the metal cover of the lid of the disk drive. It was clean and immaculate; so, it destroyed and debunked the dirty drive theory. But, just to make sure I sucked around the optical sensor with a vacuum and gently brushed it with a Q-tip.
(2) I then watched a you tube video showing how the drive operated (it was a drive supplied with power outside an iMac with a transparent cover unlike the opaque metal cover that we have on our drives). My scientific curiosity started to wonder if somehow the mechanical part (of the electro-mechanical assembly) was locked or jammed. So, I started messing with the arms with the utmost care after watching the video to see if i could move them manually. Yes on some. The main arm that is linked with the drive motor was immovable. The rest I played with a little bit, took great notice in the start of the video to see how the arms looked before inserting a disk. I then put it all back together.
It works now. My guess is that taking it out and then placing it back in along with the resetting options that others have done was the trick. I believe it is a possibility that the hard drive became locked mechanically in some strange manner after ejecting a DVD in conjunction with the uploading of the new OS. I believe the actual removal, reinstallation, and resetting of the drive put everything back into sync. My computer sits in a climate controlled dust free environment. I knew for a fact that this hard drive was OKAY. -
Outlook 2007 - Can anyone get this to work?
Just wondering if anyone had success with this, it's really frustrating that the Oracle connector doesn't work with Outlook 2007.
I've tried to get this to work on several machine configurations (Office 2007 with and with out Office 2003) using the latest Connector for Outlook on Windows XP and Windows Vista and was still unable to get it to work. I'm 100% convinced that Oracle needs to work on this ASAP and I'm even more astonished and perplexed that Oracle have not provided a solution for their customers. This has pushed me to the point where MSExchange, even Novell are being consider as a permanent alternative. Let's face it, Exchange does seem that they finally got their act together and offers a lot of flexibility for Mobility.
I've spent about 80+ hours on this and have permanently given up until I hear back from the Oracle developers, who doesn't seem to have a solution readily available to give provide. I'm interested in anyone's comments about their conversations with Oracle. -
When opening a new tab, by clicking the + sign, in FF4, recent history and frequented web pages appear. I cannot get this to repeat in later versions of FF - 5 or 6. I like this feature - can I utilize it in FF6? I am running Vista Home Premium 6.06002 SP2 on a Gateway (emachines) T5246 Athlon 64 4200+ 2.2mHz dual core with 2 GB RAM.
The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons -
I just updated my iphone4g and now when synching my calendars will not update. How can I fix this?
System restore can do that, I recommend to avoid using system restore, it can create problems as well as solve them.
Try deleting the Firefox installation directory and then re-installing Firefox 3.6
For 32 bit Windows the default location of the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory installation directory] is C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html -
How can I get tv on demands working on my iPad as wanted to watch my program but it says HTML5 not supported on this, so any ideas that can help?
HTML5 is supported on the iPad but I assume that the site that you are going to doesn't yet support it. Does the site have it's own app - here in the UK the TV channels have their own apps, plus there are apps such as TVCatchup.

ODI and XML - how can I get this to work?
Hi all.
I'm working on a new dwh solution where the main source of data will come from XML-files. The problem is that we are having difficulties with the use of abstract types in the xsd-file.
We currently use ODI to read the XML-files and to store the data in our database, but all fields from the XML-files are not visible in the target tables.
The problem can be simplified like this example:
We have a main element, testElement, which can contain one or more publications.
Publication is of type PublicationType, and PublicationType is an abstract that contains title, author and date.
We have four other types which extends PublicationType; BookType, MagazineType, NewspaperType and AdsType. They all contain additional fields.

Can anybody tell me if this should work (and why it doesn`t)? Or if the XSD/XML looks wrong in some way?
Is this a known limitation in Oracle or ODI etc.?
Any pointers to documentation describing similar problems would also be helpful.
Thanks,
Bjørn

Edited by: Bob1 on Dec 22, 2011 7:03 AMFrom what I found in the document http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25054_01/integrate.1111/e12644.pdf (section B.7.2.6), ODI does not support abstract=true for complextypes. The driver simply ignore them.
We made a new xsd without these tags and were able to generate the required tables.
I am a bit surprised that ODI don't support these abstract-tags.
