Garageband and Garritan P.O.

Hi,
I have Garitan Personal Orchestra (both the full version and the Finale version) installed on my Mac, but Garageband can't seem to find the voices, and the prompt to find them stopped popping up. The generator shows up in "details", but the GPO designation does not show up "track info - software instruments". Can you tell me what I did wrong so I can use the voices, especially the handbell one?

Has it worked with GB before?
If not, i don't think that it is compatible. I'd be willing to bet that it's a sample based instrument and the samples are in 24 bit, not 16 bit which GB needs.

  • GarageBand and Garritan Libraries (GPO, GJBB)?

    Hi all,
    I recently purchased Garritan Personal Orchestra and Garritan Jazz and Big Band along with Finale 2006, and am attempting to integrate them with GarageBand. The help section that covers this topic gave me pretty vague instructions, and I was unable to make it work.
    Does anyone use Garritan Libraries (or any other soundfont) with GarageBand? If so, could you instruct me on how to integrate them with GarageBand?
    Thanks,

    This thread is the answer to my similar question about adding soundfont voices to GB.
    My understanding is that you need a shareware utility called Soundfont Synth. But read the following linked thread as there are some details of note. And follow all the links in the thread.
    I was dealing with generic soundfonts downloadable in the public domain. I can only guess that your's will work similarly. But I don't know for sure.

  • Error reading/writing file message when opening garageband and/or files

    I've been recently getting this message when I open garageband and files
    "Error reading/writing file\U201Ccom.apple.garageband.cs\U201D
    I've been in and repaired disk permissions and all that it says it is all fine, reinstall garageband and message still comes up, weird.
    not only is garageband being a nuisance, Mac OS X 10.6.2 is being a pain when shutting down telling me to restart the computer. This only happened since upgrading to 10.6. No one as yet knows this promble so I'm gonna have to ring apple and see what is going on here.
    and also my other problem is that mac doesn't seem as snappy anymore I noticed this before upgrading to 10.6 and made no difference when "cleanly" installing 10.6. I get a colour wheel popping up and i'm having to wait with simple tasks. iMac only 2 years old.

    i give up with this discussion forum no no one knows anything

  • After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I repurchased Garageband and I can't get passed the complete installation. I don't seem to have the "com.apple.garageband.plist" file that has been a common solution. Any suggestions?

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I repurchased Garageband and I can't get passed the complete installation. I've read through several posts that all reference the "com.apple.garageband.plist" solution. I don't seem to have the referenced .plist. Any solutions or suggestions?

    Did you upgrade from SnowLeopard?
    I can't get passed the complete installation
    What exactly is happening? Is GarageBand trying to download over and over again?
    all reference the "com.apple.garageband.plist" solution. I don't seem to have the referenced .plist.
    The property list stores your preferences, but also the settings from the last run of the application.  If that file is corrupted in some way, you might see third behaviour.
    You must have this file, for it will be recreated automatically, if it is missing, or you have a permissions problem with your user library.
    Perhaps you did look in he wrong place.
    in MacOS 10.7. or later the User Library is hidden. To find the Preferences Files use the Finder's "Go" menu:
    Quit GarageBand, if it is running.
    Click onto you Desktop to bring the Finder forward.
    In the Finder Menu press "Go" and hold down the "option/alt" key, until your user library appears in the drop-down menu
    Select "Library" and in the Finder window that opens navigate to the "Prederences" folder; move com.apple.garageband.plist to the Desktop.
    Log off and on again (don't skip that step!). Retry GarageBand and see if it GarageBand is now downloading the missing content properly.
    If that does not fix the problem, post back and explain in more detail what the download problem is.
    Why did you "repurchase" GarageBand? If you already owned GarageBand '11, it should be unnecessary.

  • Error while trying to synchronize audio and MIDI.  Sample rate 42804 recognized.  Check conflict between Garageband and external device.

    Sometimes, while playing back my software instrument songs, I get an intermittent pop-up error message, saying "Error while trying to synchronize audio and MIDI.  Sample rate 42804 recognized.  Check conflict between Garageband and external device."
    (Sometimes the five digit number is different, but remains a five-digit number beginning with "4".)
    Simultaneously, the song stops until I press the "Okay" button in the pop-up window.
    When I continue to play the song, the sound is jerky and clipped, and the playhead doesn't keep up with the song, and then suddenly jumps to the part of the song currently being played.
    There's also a sound of static.
    The issue seems to occur whether or not I have my MIDI controller turned on and plugged into my desktop Imac.

    Hello,
    open your Audio MIDI Setup utility and set the input to 44100

  • Had to erase and re-install. No longer can find Garageband and other apps. Where can I re-doanload these?

    I have had this mac for years. It's one of the very first Macbook Pro models with Intel processor.
    It originally came with OS X, and I have the install disk here. I upgraded to Snow Leopard when it came out.
    Recently my disk failed and I had to Erase it and do a complete re-install. I assumed Garageband, and iMovie and a few other apps I used semi-regularly would be in the Optional Installs. I started from scratch, installed OS X and then installed Snow Leopard on top of it, installing the "Optional Installs" each time.
    No copy of Garageband and these other useful apps appeared.
    I can not download Garageband from the Apple site because each time I do it claims I need to have Garageband already installed. But since my complete reinstall did not install those, I'm stuck without these apps I once had.
    How can I get these re-installed properly like they once were?
    I just want my Macbook Pro back to where it was earlier this week before the disk failed.

  • New harddrive, I no longer have garageband and other software.

    So I upgraded my harddrive and no longer have several programs that I want, GarageBand and iMovie among them. I have my Max OS X Install DVD in my Macbook right now, but found nothing under Optional Installs. Is there a way that I can get GarageBand, iMovie and any other programs back that I do not have?
    I am also having trouble with my external harddrive, I'll mention it here just because I am already posting. I already have two partitions set up, one for an external harddrive and one for an external boot. The problem is, it says the one I have setup for the external boot needs a GUID Partition Table, or something like that about a GUID Partition table. When I try and change it in Disk Utility I am afraid I will erase my external harddrive which is currently backing up my laptop.
    Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thank you. -Scott

    You need to set a GUID partition table before installing the os. When I change hard drives I use Super Duper and make a clone of my old drive then do periodic syncs so if anything happens to my main drive it's just a matter of minutes to switch drives and back up and running.

  • Using Garageband and I cannot hear previously recorded tracks on headphones.  Prefs are set to output on EMU0404 my audio device - this did work but now is not working.

    I am using Garageband and I cannot hear the previously recorded tracks on my headphones.  I am using an audio input/output device, EMU0404 - this was previously working fine but stopped.  All cables check out OK and so does the unit - I have updated to the latest version of Garageband but this did not help.  Any suggestion?

    Hi Christoph,
    I cannot see anything wrong with the EMU0404.  This is what puzzels me ... Garageband looks OK - headphones are OK - EMU looks OK.
    Thanks anyway

  • I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    Hi, I have this exact same problem. I haven't been using an iRig, just a cheap USB-jack cable. I managed to do this with the first cable I bought, but since it broke I've been unable to find a replacement that allows me to hear the drums while recording. DId you manage to get over this issue? If so I would really like to know how. Thanks and best wishes.

  • Sony CCD-FX525 won't import color in IMovie9 with MacBook Pro.  Dipswitch 2 is on.  It's NTSC.  Using yellow composite cable to ADVC110 converter.  Opened GarageBand and played some, then quit.  Still no color.  9pin firewire on Mac to 6pin on Canopus. ??

    Using Canopus ADVC110 analog to digital converter.
    VTR on.
    Dipswitch 2 is on.  Camcorder is NTSC.
    Using RCA cables to connect to front of Canopus.
    9pin firewire on MacBook Pro to 6pin firewire on back of Canopus.
    Held the input select button for 25 seconds since copyright not an issue (home movies).
    Opened Garageband and played some.  Quit.  Reopened IMovie.
    Still can't get color.  Can see video but color not solid.  
    Any ideas?

    Thanks for getting back to me.  I've tried two different yellow RCA cables and went out and bought a yellow composite cable on one end and the S-video on the other to connect to the ADVC110.  Still didn't work.  The picture comes through but the color is not quite there.  I tried connecting camcorder directly to the TV via the yellow RCA cables and same thing so now I'm wondering if it's the camcorder or the analog to digital tv issue.  I'm almost ready to give up.

  • GarageBand and iMovie not installing after restore

    Hello,
    I have an iPad 2, it had GarageBand and iMovie installed before iOS 5.1 no problems.
    I updated to iOS 5.1 and it was all fine...2 days later I am listening to a podcast and suddenly the audio cut out.  I tried playing music and video and still nothing! So I tried all the obvious stuff restarting etc and eventually had to run a full restore from my backup.
    This finally worked and my audio is back but now iTunes will not install iMovie or GarageBand despite the fact I own them and I have the latest iOS. If I go to iTunes on iPad and lookup the software it come up with the cost instead of the expected "install" option.
    I would also confirm I had already had everything synced correctly.
    Any suggestions? I don't fancy another 2 hours restoring my iPad again!

    Sometimes when you update the software, the settings seem to go a little wacky and simple things like restarts, resets, and signing in and out of your ID can cure so many little issues. When I've updated in the past, I have had little issues that could not be logically explained - at least in my mind. So I start with the simple stuff.
    I'm glad that you were able to download and install the apps again.

  • TS1702 I have an iPad 1. I went to do an update on GarageBand and iBooks but it will not update. How do I return it to the original version?

    Well, to paraphrase the old line, "What're you gonna believe, that email or your own lying eyes?"
    The first thing I'd recommend trying is to power down your iPad (press & hold Sleep/Wake until the red OFF slider appears, then slide it to shut down), and then boot it back up and try again. You're resetting a bunch of state signals by doing that and this simple action (the first of a series recommended by Apple in your Users Guide) will quite often clear up these sorts of problems.

    You may want to download and read the manual for your phone. It may answer a lot of the basic questions.

    There is an app on your phone called "Mail". Yes, it's for reading your email.

  • Trying to use Zoom Q2HD in USB MIC mode and it crashes GarageBand and the whole Ipad?

    I bought the Zoom Q2HD video recorder to use for video and because it can be used at a USB Mic for iPad.  I recently bought a camera connection kit and last night tried to get the Zoom to work as a mic but it would either not work at all or it would crash GarageBand and the ipad and take me to the Apple logo as it restarted the iPad.
    Any ideas?

    From the podcast link on the Garageband help page:
    "Attach your preferred audio interface and a microphone to your Mac, or use your computer's built-in microphone. (Note: The iSight camera is not supported as a microphone input in GarageBand.)"
