Garageband doesn't recognize my yamaha keyboard

hi
I have garageband 6.0.4. and a yamaha keyboard ypt-200 and a duo-capture but when I connect the keyboard to the interface and the interface to garageband, it only recognize my interface but not the keyboard. when I do the same with my electric guitar it works but with my keyboard not. Can anyone help me?
thanks

Judy,
when you installed GarageBand 10.0 the installer should have moved your GarageBand 6.0.5 to a subfolder in Applications. This version should still be working. If you are working on a tight schedule, use that GarageBand 6.0.5 version for the time being, to get your show done.
GargaeBand 10.0 seems to have a bug causing crashes, i.e. on 2007 models (iMac, MBP) and mid 2011 models. If you have one of these models, use GB '11, until there is a bug fix.
See: GarageBand 10.0 crashes
If you are using older drivers for Audio interfaces or are using plug-ins for custom instruments and sound effects, check with manufacturer's for compatibility with GarageBand 10.0 and Mavericks.

My iMac doesn't recognize by usb keyboard since I installed security update 2015-002

I installed Security Update 2015-002 on my iMac and since then it doesn't recognize my usb keyboard (I'm typing this with a bluetooth keyboard). I rebooted, unplugged and plugged back in the keyboard all to no avail.
My system:
Yosemite 10.10.2
Mid 2011 iMac 27"
3.4 GHz i7
16 GB RAM
Keyboard: Apple extended USB
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mine works okay.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

I just opened my new Mac Pro and I have a USB keyboard, not a bluetooth -- it doesn't recognize the USB keyboard and I can't get past the "bluetooth keyboard pairing" screen.

What specific KB?
Do you know it works?
I set my 2103 nMP with an older (black) Apple USB KB and it worked fine

Ipad Garageband doesn't recognize Apogee jam guitar input

I have recently bought an Apogee jam guitar input device. Device works with other software like Ampkit without problem. But garageband doesnt recognize the device as an input. When I hook in the device the monitor icon grays out and theres no input sound. The interesting thing, I can see green light on monitor icon blinking with every sound coming from guitar and audio recording device meter moves with it also. But when I press record it gives this error: "this device does not have an built-in audio input. You can not record audio ...". Any ideas? Mono is not enabled from settings so its not the cause of tgis issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have upgraded from iOS 4.3.5 to 5.0 and did a sync from itunes on my laptop. It did the trick. Now garaband is working with Apogee Jam without any problem.

GarageBand doesn't recognize all of my AU plugins?

GarageBand is a fantastic tool, and it is very useful to me when making music. However, I recently decided to try some additional sound modules (KontaktPlayer, Crystal, and Alchemy were a few) and effects (Amplitube 3 Free, AmpLion, etc), and this is where the troubles started.
The effects went just fine. I installed them and could access them in GarageBand. I had less luck with the sound modules, though. For each one, I downloaded the appropriate file/folder, followed the installation instructions contained in each one, and then checked GarageBand. Out of the dozen or so that I tried to install, only one -Alchemy- made it through. All the others, which had each said something like "Installation successfully completed", were not in the dropdown list of sound modules on my MIDI instrument channel.
I then tried to put the appropriate files in the right folder manually. I went in Finder -> my hard drive -> Library -> Audio -> Plug-Ins -> Components and then pasted in the .component files. This did not work.
What am I missing? I have searched the Internet and found many "tutorials" on installing virtual instrumets- very few of them have anything beyond "download the file and it will appear in GarageBand as though 'twere magic" (which is clearly not the case here), and those that did go beyond that all told me to paste the .component files in the location where they are currently sitting, unheeded by GarageBand. Am I putting them in the wrong location? Am I downloading/copying/pasting the wrong files? Am I not using the right magic words?
Any help would be appreciated. I have been trying to make this work for days, to no avail.

Thanks for your feedback! That was the very first video I ran into, actually. The issue was that when I went into that dropdown list, some of the AU plugins I had downloaded were present, and some were not, even though I had them all installed and in the same folder.
However, when I turned on my computer this morning and opened GarageBand, they were all there! Guess it just needed some time to find them. All's well that ends well!

Using Yamaha Keyboard with GarageBand

Tried my Yamaha keyboard with GarageBand for the first time. To my amazement, it worked. However:
Cant' seem to get the volume up (on the Yamaha Keyboard). Checked all the volume settings, including the iMac's System Preferences, GarageBand volume settings but it's still relatively "soft."
I'm using a USB 2.0 15-ft. cable. Could the length of the cable have anything to do with this. Would a shorter USB 2.0 cable.........say 4-ft. ...... make a difference?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions

don't think I have some of the features to control
sound you suggest. (GB's Track Fader? Master Volume
Fader? "Generator" settings. "Pencil" icon.)
You have all these things. Each track has a fader (volume control), and at the bottom right of the window is the Master Fader (volume Control). Select a track and open Track Info ("i"nfo) icon), click details, and the pencil icon to the right of the Generator PopUp menu.
preferences, it does not show that USB port as a line
in......
Because it is NOT a line in. MIDI ≠ Audio.
just internal mic and audio line in
As it should be.
I don't understand why, when going to the audio
settings........both on Mac audio preferences and
GarageBand..........it doesn't show that USB as an
audio line in.
Because MIDI ≠ Audio
Also tried with Sound Studio...........a music
recording application that came with my iMac when I
purchased it a couple of years ago. It has worked
with the Mac's audio line in and with the internal
mic.........but doesn't pick up anything from the
keyboard via USB cable in.
Because there is no Audio to pick up. MIDI ≠ Audio.
Could the length of my USB cable have anything to do
with this? I am using a 15-ft. USB 2.0 cable.
No.

Is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress itunes doesn't recognize the feed. my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/me

is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress itunes doesn't recognize the feed.
my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/methods):
garageband : create & edit audio. add 1400x1400 image.
share to itunes.
drag file to desktop.
upload .m4a file to google drive.
create a link post in wordpress using "podcast" tag & create "podcast" category.
click on "entries rss" in wordpress, which takes me to the rss subscribe page (which is basically just my wordpress address with "/feed" at the end.
i copy this url.
go to itunes store > then "submit a podcast"
itunes gives me the error message "we had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed."
when i try to subscribe to my podcast in itunes, it does, but gives me no episodes available.
i went back into wordpress and changed settings/ reading settings to : "full text" from "summary"
still the same error message.
i added a feedburner step after wordpress but got the same errors. i don't think i should have to add feedburner.
wordpress seems to be encapsulating the rss, what am i doing wrong?
this so much easier when you could go directly from garage band to iweb to mobileme; i miss those apple days (also idisk).

if anyone has a super EASY process, i would LOVE to know what it is. EASY, meaning no html and also free. there are many free online storage systems available, many of which i currently use. the above process was just me trying to figure it out, if you have an easier method, please share. thank you so much!

Yamaha Keyboard Sound in Garageband

I've been trying to figure this out forever but could not find out i would love and appreciate it if someone could help me.
I want my yamaha keyboard sounds to be usable in garageband and record using the instruments on my yamaha keyboard rather then the garageband instruments

As others have said, you can always record the audio out of your Yamaha into Garageband onto a real audio track, just as you'd record a guitar or mic, but you can't use your Yamaha sounds as software instrument sounds, with Garageband "playing" your Yamaha via MIDI.
More full featured music applications, like Apple's Logic would enable you to play your Yamaha like a software instrument (play synth, synth sends MIDI to computer, computer records MIDI, on playback computer sends MIDI back to synth, synth plays audio), but I doubt the hassle of setting it up would be worth it. The virtual instruments in the computer will likely sound better than the sounds that come with that particular Yamaha.

Garageband is no longer recognizing sound from my Yamaha keyboard. This happened suddenly and I can not figure out why. Any tips?

I connected my Yamaha keyboard to garageband via the iPad camera connector kit. I had it working great to record, but suddenly garageband stopped recognizing my keyboard and I can not record any sound from my keyboard in garageband. Any ideas to fix?

As a first step, try doing a Reset PRAM.

The sound settings are stored in PRAM. If there is some corruption of settings in PRAM, a reset may fix your problem.

Mac Mini doesn't recognize wireless keyboard

Have new Mac Mini. It has recognized bluetooth track pad but not the bluetooth keyboard that has functioned with Macbook Air previously.

Yes it is charged and I went ahead and changed out the current batteries to new ones. When doing and going through the prompts it continues to not recognize the wireless keyboard via bluetooth. The mac mini does recognize the wireless track pad.

Macbook no longer recognizes my midi keyboard

Hello folks. I'm having this problem where my macbook no longer recognizes my midi keyboard (M-Audio Radium 61.) I've had it working fine in the past through this midi to usb converter, and now the usb converter still lights up and shows data flowing when I have it plugged in, but for some reason the computer just doesn't seem to see it. The macbook also doesn't see this aggregate device I had working the other day too. But it sees other aggregate devices that are made up of the same outboard audio interfaces I have. Sunday was the first time I had my whole setup working with the keyboard running into Reason, out to Ardour via Jackpilot and out through my audio interface via the aggregate device (which is actually just made up of the inputs and outputs of my M-Audio FastTrack Pro because for some reason the computer sees them as separate devices... different point of contention...) Anyway, so now today was the first time I tried to set it all up the same way again since Sunday and I can't get them working. Any thoughts?

Use a data recovery product such as the ones listed here, and then get a replacement drive.
