HELP!!! LOGIC RANDOMLY STOPS RECORDING FOR NO REASON!

WHILE IM WORKING IN LOGIC EVERYTHING WE'LL BE FINE AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WHEN I HIT THE RECORD BUTTON (ON AN INSTRUMENT TRACK) IT WONT RECORD ANYMORE. I CAN STILL HEAR THE CLICK BUT NO MIDI DATA OR REGION IS BEING RECORDED. NO REGION SHOWS UP EITHER.
ABOUT 25 SECONDS AFTER I STOP RECORDING I CAN HEAR THE SOUND THAT I WAS TRYING TO RECORD
IM RUNNIG version 8.0.2. ITS VERY FRUSTRATING CAN ANYONE HELP? I HAVE A MAC PRO WITH 5 GIGS OF RAM.
IF I CLOSE LOGIC AND RESTART MY COMPUTER EVERYTHING WE'LL BE FINE FOR A WHILE UNTIL IT DOES IT AGAIN. I'VE ALREADY TRASHED PREFS AND REPAIRED DISK PERMISSIONS BUT IT DIDNT WORK. ANY HELP TRULY DESERVES A CASH REWARD... IDEAS ANYONE ?

Try these ideas.
run disk permsissions repair, and disk repair. Consider getting Disk Warrior, it often repairs disks that other programs, don't find a problem with.
trash Logic prefs,
log on as another user, see if problem still occurs...
Does this do this all the time?.... I on occassion (only about 3 times in the last year) have created encountered a problem, where an 'invisible mute' or 'solo' has been generated. That is Logic acts as if a mute of solo button is on, even though none are visible.. I rectified the problem, by hitting "undo" a few times.. One time, I had to go back to a previous version of the song, and recreate from there. I never found out exactly why it was happening..
If none of these solutions work, I would trash Logic itself, and re-install.. And finally if none of that worked. I would trash the whole disk, reformat, install OSX and Logic again.. I have had to do that once or twice also.
Another less drastic measure might be to install another OSX and Logic on a different disk, or partition. Consider also, once you get things working OK is to Clone the OS drive to another, and keep that as a backup, in case things sour.
I have had to go the whole erase, re-install, routine twice in the last 2 years, and it seems to take the better part of a week to get EVERYTHING back to normal... Good Luck

The Audio randomly stops working for no reason.

Half way through the finished video, the audio just cuts out and sometimes plays the audio from other videos over it.
I've tried making a completely new video, but it does exactly the same thing. What is wrong?

I plug in my headset and if i press the mute mic button, a blue light comes on telling me that headset "is" working. I can press this as much as I want, the blue light will just go on and off. all good.
I then go to speaker button on taskbar and set HP headset as default. If I had left the mutemic on, the light will now go out. no sound will play from my speakers.
When I click "► Test"
an Error! message appears saying "Failed to play test tone."
My headset has worked previously and sometimes it does work. My efforts to fix the problem seem to be futile and it is a random chance that it will work.
I have tried every USB port on my PC, I have tried updating but it says "The best driver software for your device is already installed"
As I was typing this I decided to plug it into all my USB ports again and uninstall it from any that do not work, then reboot my PC and try reinstalling it.
While doing this, I encountered this message from Device Manager "This device cannot start. (Code 10)" Updating the driver did not help so I will be uninstalling it from that port.
For one of the USB ports, the first time I tested it, it seemed crackly, I tested it again and the test tone suddenly fails to play.
After restarting, I plugged my headset into my favourite USB port and tested "Failed to play test tone."
I plugged it into the next one down. Crackly noises ensued so I ran the test once more. "Failed to play test tone."
I have got it working in one so I will leave it at that until it that ones stops. The USB port which it works in, was one that it worked in before uninstalling and rebooting.
My problem still remains so if I could have any help, that would be great.
also I am still under warranty so what can I do about that?

How do I get Logic to stop looking for a specific .wav file?

I recently imported a project I started in GarageBand into Logic Pro. Once in Logic, I edited and added to the project then saved it as a Logic project file. I deleted the original project from GarageBand. Now, when I open the Logic file, Logic is still looking for .wav files that were used in the original GarageBand file. None of these files are actually needed in my project. Is there a way that I can get Logic to stop looking for these .wav files?
Thanks for any help!

Do a cleanup.

I cant get a photo project to email the moblile me address to someone else. I know how, but it has stopped working for some reason. Instead of pulling up the web address on the email form, it puts an error message? Any ideas?

Michael,
The link for the word 'HERE' directs to a Evergreen School District page, which outside of Mobile Me and/or Aperture. Your school district network might be intercepting the request from Aperture and displaying the 'network authentication page' that you see, instead of the email. I would get with the IT department to see if they can help you get around this.
Have you also tried using the 'Tell a Friend' feature from another network location, like starbucks or your home?

Qosmio X500: power adapter stopped working for no reason

Hi,
Now i have my Qosmio X500 for a year and i like it, however i have small problems with it, and i would like to know if it can be problematic.
The first thing is that my power adapter stopped working for no reason,
So i bought a new one, but it always made some noise when the laptop was fully charged.
I know people with the same laptop and their adapter didn't make that sizzling noise, it looks like it was already defect from the begin.
Then i have one dead pixel in the middle of my screen, no problem for me.
Finally my screen is a bit loose from the laptop, when i close it, i can move it, it always seems like it's not on it's correct place, because when i close it normally it's not 100% horizontal...
Also when i replace my screen, my speakers make crackling noises and my webcam stops working.
So all those problems i have annoy me, especially the last one (webcam and speakers problem), can this fit in the warranty of the laptop? I did extend the warranty for one year...
Thanks in advance.

> The first thing is that my power adapter stopped working for no reason,

I think this is AC adaptor fault maybe a broken cable or something like that I would recommend you to replace this get in contact with the dealer and ask for the new one.
> Then i have one dead pixel in the middle of my screen, no problem for me.
I found a info about such issues:
+Information on screen technology and pixel failure tolerance for LCD displays

Maybe you should ask Toshiba notebook technicians for a check maybe some screws or the hinges are loose.
The speakers should be checked with connected headphones. If you will not notice the same crackling sound using headphones, then the issue might be related to speakers

Audacity randomly stops recording after a few seconds

I've been trying to record a few things with audacity, which has generally worked pretty well for me in the past.
However, whenever I try to record a second track, it only records for a second or so after I hit the record button, and then randomly stops, although the cursor keeps on moving forwards and the meter keeps showing the input.
I haven't been able to find any reason why it would be doing this, and it is EXTREMELY fustrating. It has also done this when I tried to record for the first time in a new project, but I switched a few settings on and off again and it worked for some reason. Can anyone offer any help?

Is this still a problem for anyone? I came here looking for help and found more questions, so I started randomly playing with the input settings. I have an Ensoniq (es1371). Choosing OSS/DSP gave me an error trying to read the device; choosing hw0:0 or 0:1 had it stop recording at just over 0.6 seconds; turning software playthrough on or off had no effect. What finally worked was "ALSA:Default" and use alsamixer to control the recording source.
At the risk of being branded a linux hater, I should mention that the same hardware under Windows "just works" without any changes needed in the input settings on my part. I fired up Windows 7 in a vmware window - so not only did the Windows environment work correctly out of the box, that was with the additional layer of alsa -> vmware -> windows.

Sun Java System Application Server Standard stops responding for no reason

Dear Sun Users and Support.
We ran into an issue that we can't find any cause for. For some reason our Sun Java System Application Server 8.2 Standard stops responding to HTTP calls. Even Admin console can't be invoked. The server by itself appears to be running according to the Windows Services window.
It happens very rarely but once it happens the server needs to be restarted.
There are no logs in the log files.
This happens to multiple Sun Servers at the same time (As if some kind of timer shuts them off).
The servers run on Windows Server 2003.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
These servers are in the production environment and have expected uptime of 99.9%.
Thank you.

This has happened to us a couple of times and it was caused by Windows running out of TCP/IP connections. Next time it happens do a "netstat -an" to see if you have an extremely large amount of connections in time-wait state.
If you do this is probably the culprit and I'm sorry to say that I don't know of a cure. From what I've heard (objection your honour, hearsay!) this is caused by bugs in Windows TCP/IP stack.
If you require a 99.9% uptime you should perhaps consider switching to Linux or Unix. I know, easier said than done!
Hope this helps,
Gunnar

Itunes stops working for no reason

recently itunes just stops working every now and then for no reason. I only use it to listen to my music and didn't change any settings at all. then last week i updated it to the newest version, which i thought would put an end to this. but it still keeps happening.
i have no clue at all.
ps. i'm using a windows 7 home edition 64 bit os and have been for a year. didn't have this problem until very recent.
any help is appreciated

1. In iTunes - go to - HELP - DIagnostics
If that does not fix the problem, I would suggest that you do a complete uninstall and reinstall.
To to your Control Panel and remove all Apple programs - sort by Publisher:
uninstall: Bonjour, Quicktime, iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Service Device, Apple Software Update
Restart your PC
Go to Apple - iTunes and download (if you are running Windows 64 bit - look for the link in the text for the link for the proper iTunes installation
This should give you a clean installation.

After updating to Mavericks, my macbook's keyboard and mouse randomly stops functioning for a brief period of time.

Why my iPhone Voice Memos sometimes randomly stop recording

Hello everyone,
I'm using my iPhone 6 Plus Voice Memos app to record my lecture in the university, the problem is sometimes the app stop recording and this is causing me major problem.
Note that I'm putting my iPhone on Airplain mode to avoid stopping the recording if someone called me.
The WiFi is sometimes ON while recording, but in all cases the Airplain mode is on
at the end I need to record my classes lectures for more then 60 minutes normally sometimes 160 minutes.
Thank you.

Hey there Al-Shatti Jr.,
If your Voice Memos are still unexpectedly not recording after some time, I would recommend quiitting the app itself first:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

SQL help: return number of records for each day of last month.

Hi: I have records in the database with a field in the table which contains the Unix epoch time for each record. Letz say the Table name is ED and the field utime contains the Unix epoch time.
Is there a way to get a count of number of records for each day of the last one month? Essentially I want a query which returns a list of count (number of records for each day) with the utime field containing the Unix epoch time. If a particular day does not have any records I want the query to return 0 for that day. I have no clue where to start. Would I need another table which has the list of days?
Thanks
Ray

Peter: thanks. That helps but not completely.
When I run the query to include only records for July using a statement such as following
============
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS */ COUNT(ED.UTIMESTAMP), TO_CHAR((TO_DATE('01/01/1970','MM/DD/YYYY') + (ED.UTIMESTAMP/86400)), 'MM/DD') AS DATA
FROM EVENT_DATA ED
WHERE AGENT_ID = 160
AND (TO_CHAR((TO_DATE('01/01/1970','MM/DD/YYYY')+(ED.UTIMESTAMP/86400)), 'MM/YYYY') = TO_CHAR(SYSDATE-15, 'MM/YYYY'))
GROUP BY TO_CHAR((TO_DATE('01/01/1970','MM/DD/YYYY') + (ED.UTIMESTAMP/86400)), 'MM/DD')
ORDER BY TO_CHAR((TO_DATE('01/01/1970','MM/DD/YYYY') + (ED.UTIMESTAMP/86400)), 'MM/DD');
=============
I get the following
COUNT(ED.UTIMESTAMP) DATA
1 07/20
1 07/21
1 07/24
2 07/25
2 07/27
2 07/28
2 07/29
1 07/30
2 07/31
Some dates donot have any records and so no output. Is there a way to show the missing dates with a COUNT value = 0?
Thanks
Ray

I was working on numerous songs in Logic Pro 9, and for some reason 2 of the songs would not bounce. I get an error message: Error in parameter list / Not an existing volume, and no default volume / Bad positioning information / Bad drive number

I was doing some minor editing in Logic Pro 9.1.8, like adding some plug-ins to audio and midi tracks on numerous songs. Most of the songs I had no problem bouncing. For some reason 2 of the songs I tried to bounce kept showing me this error message:
"Error in parameter list / Not an existing volume, and no default volume / Bad positioning information / Bad drive number" result code=-50.
The songs open and play fine, but won't let me bounce. I've worked with Logic for a few years and this has never happened. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Johnny

Fixed! Ran disk utilities and repaired my external HD.

MSI Afterburner "randomly" stops recording

I have an issue with an old version of MSI Afterburner. I use it to record gameplay, and the software would often stops recording anything, even if I press the key to stop the recording and start a new one. I have to actually leave the game and restart MSI Afterburner to get it to work again. The last video captured by the software would usually be corrupted and unreadable.
I think I know what's causing the problem, but I don't really know how to fix it : it happens from time to time, when a loading screen appears. MSI Afterburner would just completely cease to operate somewhere during the loading, with no warning, and now way to fix it without restarting the whole thing. I'm using version 3.0.1.
Yes, I know I should update MSI Afterburner, I'm actually doing that just now, but I'm especially interested to know if this is a known issue at all, and if that's the case, if it has been fixed in the latter versions. If not, is there any workarounds to it, besides stopping the recording each time there's a loading screen ? That would be impractical.
Thanks in advance for your answers. ^^

Same problem occurs with 4.0.0. How can I fix it ?

Mail randomly stops checking for new mail

I've got a PowerMac that keeps Mail open full time. Recently, Mail just randomly stops working and no new messages from my Exchange server are downloaded. This only started within the past two weeks. Either the program is just sitting there with no evidence of function, or there is a continual spinning wheel by my Exchange inbox icon. Restarting Mail seems to be the only solution I've found. I am also running Mail Act-On, Mail Tags, and Mail attachments iconizer. Any ideas on what could be causing this behavior?
Thanks for any input.
Mark

This is possibly related to MailTag. Visit http://support.indev.ca for assistance
