Garage Band hears my audio signal, but will not record it.
I posted this problem initially with the imprecise heading, "Recording in Garage Band," about midnight last night...so far no response, but it's only 8:00 am. I am almost brand new at the discussion group game as well as being brand new to Garage Band. I had the non-recording problem initially a month or so ago, and aired it in this forum. I got an answer almost immediately, advising me to delete two .plist items and the problem should be cleared up...and as I recall, idid and it was; but a day or so afterward, before I had a chance even to try recording anything, I had a major computer disaster and lost all my saved email, including the directions to the folder containing the offensive .plist gremlins, as well as all my bookmarks and my iPhoto library for the last two years. I'm not really geeky enough to figure this stuff out properly, so I've been reconstructing things pretty much from scratch as best I can.
I've looked for those .plist artifacts since, hoping I might recognize them if I saw them, but no luck. I've screwed up so much already, that I am loath to delete things when I don't know what they are or even where I'm supposed to look for them.

The easiest way to find them is simply search your hard drive for "GarageBand", the ".plist" and ".cs" files will show up in the results.

My pavilion g7 says my microphone is enabled but will not record on skype
my pavilion g7 says my microphone is enabled but will not record on skype
HP Pavilion g7-2250sh Notebook PC
Serial Number: [edited Serial Number by Moderator]
Product Number: C5T08EAHello @Pistaba1975,
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 have read your post on how the microphone on your notebook is enabled, but will not record any audio on Skype. I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
Are you able to record audio using a different program on your computer? Were you able to record audio from Skype in the past?
In the meantime, I recommend following the steps in this document on Resolving microphone problems (Windows 8). This should help enable the audio-in when using the microphone.
Additionally, I also suggest following this resource on Microphone Troubleshooter to ensure that your Skype software is communicating the audio being transmitted to your audio-in device.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, as well as the requested information above. I look forward to your reply!

I dropped my mac pro. The disc drive plays but will not record. medium drive error. How hard is it to replace the drive my self. i see screws on the bottom. Could I just order a new internal drive and replace it? Or is it too complicated for the average person? Would be cheaper to buy an external drive than to replace internal one? Any advice is appreciated
How certain are you the superdrive ONLY is at fault?
That depends on your skill level, if you grew up tearing things apart and putting them together, its absurd how easy it is.
For some however its too daunting. On a general skill level for the "average" person its about a 3 out of 10 in difficulty.
Can you order same? yes. -
ITunes imports songs from an audio CD, but will not play them. Why?
90% of my iTunes music library has come from importing old audio CDs into iTunes. I haven't imported any in a while, but I recently imported an audio album, iTunes recognized the artist and songs, imported into the library bu if I select one in iTunes for playing, it will not play.
The other song's in the library all still play fine so iTunes is working correctly. But the newly imported CD will not play. Seems very strange it recognizes the CD and imports it but will not play. No error, no message, no nothing. What gives?
Thanks.I think the blue text means that Windows compressed the files when it did a disk cleanup or something. I might be wrong, because I haven't used that disk cleanup feautre in ages - it did things I didn't want it to do.
So google around and find out how to uncompress one, and see if it plays. -
Garage Band '11, version 6.0.5 will not change key after new project is started
Garage Band '11 version 6.0.5: Cannot change key after new project is started.
It has always worked ok prior to this. And I have had other issues. How do I reinstall Garage Band '11?
I have looked in downloads, but can'ty find any download file. I had upgraded to Mac OSX 10.6.8 couple years back, which included
Garage Band '11, a new ITunes & new IPhoto.Before reinstalling I'd try HangTime's fix for "oddball" problems and delete the User preferences and repair permissions, see the FAQ:
http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/FAQPages/OddBallProbs.html
The GarageBand 6.0.5 update is here:
GarageBand 6.0.5
If you want to reinstall, install again the GaragaBand application from your installation disk and then upgrade again to 6.05 using the link above or Software update from the Apple Menu.

Phone has full signal but will not send texts
I am on a contract with an S5 mini and can have it showing full signal and 4G but I have to go walk about to try to get a text to send, my friends will send me texts that arrive hours later, in a completely random order to which they were sent some have never arrived. I use to be on O2 and in my front room I did very rarely have an issue with texts going but they would go within a minute or 2 with EE I can try switching my phone on and off and walking all round the house and the garden and they still won't go, yet I can pick up 4G and call using the phone. This is very annoying.
Hi I don't think that will be the answer as I don't receive 4G indoors and that is a really bad place to send and receive texts but I will try that when I am outside thanks

Audition CS6 recognizes MOTU 8Pre but will not record
I've used Audition for several years in a Mac environment with a Presonus Firestudio and not experienced any problems, but I'm now using a PC and a MOTU 8Pre (USB) for recording, and have run into trouble right away.
The 8Pre seems to be set up correctly, with all the current ASIO drivers installed on the PC, and Audition seems to recognize both it and the MOTU Audio Console. However, I can't record anything. I can see/assign all the 8Pre's inputs and I can arm tracks for record, but the track input levels do nothing onscreen, and if I hit "record" and then "stop", not even silence is recorded. There's just nothing on the track. Meanwhile, the input signal is strong on the 8Pre's physical display, and all of my Audio Hardware settings/preferences suggest that everything is OK.
Ideas? Thanks.I should have checked that, ain't I.
Calling up an old session just now, the transport does indeed move when I tell it to play. When I monitor from the phone jack on the front of the 8pre, I can't hear any output; when I monitor instead from the main outs on the back of it, I can hear a very faint output. It's still unresponsive when I try to record, but it's definitely playing back on the Audition end of things.
I wouldn't be surprised if I just needed to spend more time setting up the 8pre, but if that's the case I figure I should at least be able to record within the DAW, even if I don't get any signal. So I'm not sure. -
"record enable" buttons not showing up in Garage Band 10.0.3 (I have selected "show record enable"- a space in the track header opens up, but the button is not present. Same with "input monitor".
Look at all the posts in the forum from users with similar problems, it happened with the last Logic update.

I'm running Mavericks 10.9.3, updated iTunes earlier today, but although I can play audio CDs, DVDs will not play, any suggestions?
Hello there, tomazdes.
The following Knowledge Base article written for the USB SuperDrive, offers some practical steps to try when issues present themselves with particular content playback (feel free to skip Step 3 when working with an iMac or MacBook with built-in drives):
Apple Computers: Troubleshooting the slot-loading SuperDrive
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2801
Particularly:
Accepts discs but they don't mount or are automatically ejected
Make sure the drive is not placed upside down. The aluminum enclosure should be facing up as shown in section 1.
Check the disc's surface for scratches and dirt, since these things can prevent the disc from appearing on the desktop.
Connect the MacBook Air SuperDrive directly to the computer's USB port instead a USB hub.
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
Ensure your drive can read the specific type of disc being used. The System Profiler or System Information may provide additional information regarding what media your computer supports.
OS X Snow Leopard v10.6 or earlier: Open Apple System Profiler by choosing "About this Mac" from the Apple () menu. Then, click More Info.
OS X Lion v10.7 and later: Click the Apple () menu and then hold down the Option key. Choose System Information from the menu.
If the disc continues to not be recognized, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro. -
When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

Thanks for the follow up.
Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.
Best wishes,

My ipod shuffle will connect to itunes on computer but will not fully charge and will not play songs
My Ipod shuffle was washed in a washing machine but dried completely. Now it will connect to my itunes on my computer but will not completely charge or play songs. Can anyone tell me if this is a lost cause and I should buy a new one or is there hope that I can fix this.
Moisture will cause short circuits, so the battery is being affected. The audio output is also affected. You really can't tell if it is completely dry, on the inside. So, it's possible the current condition will improve if it is left alone to dry out for while longer. It is also possible that moisture (and short circuits) caused permanent damage.
Since it is recognized in iTunes, you can try doing a Restore (from the shuffle's Summary or Settings tab).
There is nothing else you can do (actively) to fix it, so if you want to have a usable shuffle now, you'll need to get a new one. You can leave this one alone for a month or so (in a dry well-ventilated location), and try it again. If it works, you'll have a new shuffle and a backup. -

Just got comcast triple play. Original ipad sees network but will not connect.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I have a brand new PC that is MORE than adequate. I have once succeeded in burning a CD after learning all about time tracks and merging them. (made a few with only ONE track)
Two things:
1) I find that I must add a CD marker at the end of the WAV because Audition CS6 erases whatever is the last CD marker I've made. Very frustrating but now I know I have to do this but I have no idea WHY!!
2) Right now I have a WAV that is just over 1 hour and 3 minutes with a total of 637.74MB of info. When I try to export/burn a CD, I get an error message stating "The amount of audio to burn will not fit.......". I am using TDK 700MB blanks with a Pioneer Blu-ray burner.
Obviously it will fit.
What am I doing wrong, all of a sudden?Hey ryclark,
Thanks for responding. Something else is going on here.....
Here's what I re-replied to our friend...
Thanks for the response.
When I built this computer last Nov/Dec, it was built with the second
fastest Intel 7i, quad-core chipset on an 64-bit ASUS motherboard. It's running
Win 7 Pro. It has a 500GB SSD "C" drive with another 14 TB of true hard
drive space. It is set up with 64 bit. I had been using Audition CS3 for many
years and even go back to it's origin: Cool Edit and Cool Edit Pro. My
learning curve was minimal, sans the CD burning, which I used other software
for which is now antiquated, so I need Audition for this. Between this and
IZotope 3 I've repaired and improved many a recording. All-in-all extremely
useful software.
As for the idea "to burn it anyway", well the error message comes up and
that's it - if I "X" out of that message and try to burn again the message
comes back - so Audition will not let me. It is convinced that this file is
longer than it really is, but only when I add track marks to it!
There are only 11 tracks.
I was able to burn a CD of this same file but without all the track marks,
so the same exact file length/size will burn, only as the one track.
I've also succeeded in burning other WAV's , both greater and smaller, with
and without multiple track marks, without issue. Of course all with less
than the CD's max. capacity.
This problem seems to be with this one file. I've even re-made/re-recorded
the file from scratch with no change. There's something else going on here
that I can't put my finger on. (I am "recording" LP's and making personal
CDs of them)
Also, only from time to time, I have another error after burning a CD that
states it could not verify the CD. For this I assume it is the blank rather
than AA? The first might burn without issue and with the second burn I
get the error. It is near the end of a stack of blanks, so.....
As for the need to "mark the end" of the file makes a lot of sense but of
all the other CD track-marking software I've used, none needed one to do
this, but this IS Adobe after all.
You'd think there might be a smidge of intuitiveness with Adobe, but maybe
not.
