Help needed from the GB experts! I've just installed Native instruments Session Strings PRO!

Hello, I wasn't paying much attentionI've accidentally installed the VST and RTAS together with the AU format :-( Just wondering if this mistake has just caused me 3 x times the amount of hard disk space! I don't think I'd be using Protools (VST) or any of Steinberg's DAW (RTAS) anytime soon, I'm still new to all this different types of plugins, could someone tell me if I should leave these formats (VST and RTAS) in my hard drive?
Thank you for reading

Thanks so much for the reply! I did manage to locate the VST and Digidesign folders as per your previous instructions, however both have empty files in them, I then clicked each and "get info" from the menu bar, just to make sure, but both do not have any files, nor taking any hard disk space, which is strange, maybe your correct by saying the samples that was loaded initialy AU (at 30+ gig size) are only referenced for use by the other two formats when needed...anyways I'm only using the Kontakt Player for this library so NI doesn't provide any support for any related issues, all good
You're welcome!
A few thoughts:
First, make sure you check your plugin folders in both your hard drive library and home library. Perhaps it's in the other one (hard disk > library > plug-ins > etc. AND user name > library > plug-ins > etc.)
However, because installing libraries in different formats isn't unheard of, I would guess that it doesn't install the big honking sound files more than once, for the very thing you're concerned about. Just a guess though. 
As for NI... yeah... they're not exactly known for good tech support!

Matt, just on the side note I'm a long time lurker from this forum and I've read and learned a lot from your postings, glad to say with your help, I'd leave this topic solved for now.
Thank you once again.
Thanks for the kind words!
(Finally, if after checking all the plug in folders, you still had questions about this, you could always post in the Logic forum since I know some of those people use both Logic and ProTools. I only use / and have installed AU's so haven't dealt with this one myself. I'm just kind of educated-guessing this!).

  • Printer help needed from the Apple community

    Hello Apple Community,
    Can you help me to print from a new Mac to an old Canon printer?
    I'm here in Vietnam (first time in Asia) as a teacher. I have the latest model MBP (running Mac OS X 10.8.4). There's an old Canon that I'm trying to print to. I've Google'd the model number but nothing comes up for Mac. There are sites in the Google search that say they have the software. I'm worried they might be malware sites.
    On the back of the printer it says L11121E. But when I connect it (via USB) and open Print & Scan it detects it as a Canon LBP2900.
    I looked here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670 and here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670.
    But neither of those links list the Canon L11121E or LBP2900.
    When I Google'd "L11121E mac driver" this link came up:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL899
    Do you think that would work?
    I checked for updates from the App Store (and System Preferences Print & Scan) with the USB cable of the printer plugged in. Nothing came back.
    I'm a teacher trying to print material for my students. Any help at all would be appreciated.
    Confused,
    .Sean

    Thank you, Linc!
    Following the instructions from AlexeyU (thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15765876#15765876) worked!
    AlexeyU's instructions:
    "Try this:
    1) Download & Install official drivers for Lion v3.36 – http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0100359005.html
    2) Download & Install this package –http://www.uzhva.com/temp/Canon_LBP3000_to_LBP2900_patcher.zip
    3) Reboot
    You probably will need to manually match your printer with LBP 2900 driver from drivers list."

  • HELP NEEDED FROM THE UK

    I live in the UK.
    Renters are going in to my New Port Richey Fl condo next month and I need to get a residential phone line activated.
    I have been a customer of Verizon before but have been without a home phone for many years as I had no need of it for my infrequent visits to Florida. So I do not have a phone number.
    My question is whether I am able to purchase a phone bundle online as I will not be able to visit Florida before the renters come in. Or can I call Verizon and order it and pay by credit card?
    Anyone have any knowledge?

    trophy3681,
     You can order  the service online or by phone.  If you go to Verizon.com and order  online you will get a better rate.  You will not get those same rates by calling to submit a order.   Depending on the service you get, If there is something that will need to be installed an adult will have to be there to allow the installer , entry into the residence.
    Thanks,
    Tonya D.

    If you mean that you have been instructed to contact iTunes support, then will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    to contact the iTunes Store.

  • Information need from the experts

    Hi guys,
    I am a new mac user. I haven't tried to use mail neither the address book but I would like to know what are the benefits of using it compare to Entourage.
    I would like to keep using: rules, hyperlink (something entourage doesn't have), create subfolder and most importantly create my pop account. Is mail capable of doing so?
    On the address book side, I would like to create groups, to be able to enter different information such as fax, home phone number, work phone number and so forth
    Also I am interested on using the calendar, does it interact with mail and the address book? Can you select your contacts from the address book when creating a meeting? Can you email meetings using mail?
    Please, provide any good feedback you might have.

    Your computer came with a User Guide and an Introduction to OS X. There's also Mac Help available from the Finder's Help menu and each application has it's own individual Help menu. These are good places to start learning about Mail, Address Book, and iCal as well as iSync.
    A good place to start for a new Mac user is here: http://www.apple.com/support/switch101/.
    About midway down this page, http://www.apple.com/macosx/, on the right is a box listing the principal Mac OS X apps. Click on them and you will be taken to a page introducing you to the application. Each page has a link at the top right to a Quicktime Movie tutorial.

  • The Help Link from the Application Pages Does not Work for Peoplesoft Campus Solutions 9.0

    Hi everyone.
    I have a problem, I have been trying to set up the Help Link from the Application Pages for Peoplesoft Campus Solutions 9.0 according to the instructions given in the Document: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17566_01/epm91pbr0/eng/psbooks/EnablingtheHelpLinkfromApplicationPages.pdf ,  (referenced in the Doc ID 1289101.1, E-PB: How to Set Up the Context Sensitive Help with Hosted PeopleBooks using Universal Linking).
    I follow the instructions of that document carefully:
    I go to: PeopleTools -> Web Profile -> Web Profile Configuration
        2. Then I choose the Web Profile: "Development".
        3. Then Change the value for the Help URL field by entering the following URL format: http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?id=%CONTEXT_ID%&ctx=hrcs90r5 , the ctx parameter selected is the one that correspond to  the Campus Solutions (hrcs90r5) according to the Product Line Code Table (ULinkID) especified in the mentioned document.
        4. Stop the Web Domain and Clear cache.
        5. Start the Web Domain again.
    After setting up the Web Profile Configuration I test the help links, thas is why I click in the Help link in any Peoplesoft CS 9.0 Application Page (modify a person), but the next error message appears: "We're sorry, the topic you requested was not found.".
    I tried many combinations with the ctx parameters URL but it does not work yet. 
    I did the same test, but this time using the Help URL field with a HRMS ctx parameter by entering the following URL format: http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?id=%CONTEXT_ID%&ctx=hcm92pbr5 , and It works fine !!!
    According to the previous test you realize that It works with HRMS ctx parameter but not with Campus Solutions 9.0 ctx parameter,  Does anybody know what else can I do ? Am I doing anything wrong or missing? or maybe the Oracle's ctx parameter for Campus Solutions URL It is broken simply.
    Thanks for you help and feedback.

    2799444 - The page you are testing with appears to be a Workforce Administration page. Is that correct?
    The CS PeopleBooks would only work for CS pages, e.g.: try navigating to Main Menu > Campus Community > Personal Information > Add/Update a Person
    Also, you can use multiple ctx parameters:
    E.g.: http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?id=%CONTEXT_ID%&ctx=hrcs90r5&ctx=hcm92pbr5&ctx=pt852pbh2
    This way the help would work for the HR related pages like Workforce Administration, Campus Solutions pages like Campus Community and also PeopleTools pages like Web Profile Configuration. Hope this clarifies your question. Thanks!

    I'm hoping to download it from their website because I can pay $30 for the student discount instead of $119...

    When burning the .iso file to a disc restrict the burn-speed to 2x
    Otherwise the disc will most likely not work.
    It's a common phenomenon on Macs.

  • I cannot sync my iphone music, i had used my i phone on another pc, now when i bought a song on this computer from the apple store, i have just been sent an email that says Your Apple ID, was just used to purchase "" by a computer or device not prev assoc

    i cannot sync my iphone music, i had used my i phone on another pc, which died.  Ive managed to save the hard drive and transfer stuff across. I ended up smashing my phone and could update all other stuff on restore but cant sync any music.  It is all grey at the top of the screen.  Ive re installed itunes and cleared all phone data. Now when i bought a song on this computer from the apple store, i have just been sent an email that says Your Apple ID, was just used to purchase (a song ) by a computer that had not been previously associated with that apple id.  So do i have to tell apple now somehow i am using itunes on this pc, and if so how? Because i authorised it and it said this pc was one of 5 aujthorised.  if anyone can be of assistance then great!

    I'm having a similar problem.  I had previously (over a year ago) purchased 2 episodes of Law &amp; Order.  Then about 2 months ago, I purchased the 3rd season of Sons of Anarchy.  When I downloaded these episodes to my iPad, about a dozen full seasons of various shows popped up, too.  No money was removed from my iTunes account &amp; theses particular shows aren't in my iTunes library on my desktop.  I've tried every which way to delete them from my ipad, but can't.  I went to the Apple store &amp; they suggested I contact expresslane.apple.com for help.  I submitted my problem, via email Friday, as they asked, but have not received any response.  Any suggestions on how to get rid of these "phantoms?".

  • I have a music library on an iMac and I got a new iPhone and a new MacBook Pro and I want some of the songs from the iMac library to be on my phone and my MacBook Pro and I have a new Apple ID on my phone and my Mac book pro

    I have a music library on an iMac and I got a new iPhone and a new MacBook Pro and I want some of the songs from the iMac library to be on my phone and my MacBook Pro and I have a new Apple ID on my phone and my Mac book pro, is this possible if so how do I do it?

    Providing specifics on all the ways to do this will take more time than I am willing to spend here these days.  You can do some of this with Home Sharing.  You can transfer the entire library from one computer to another, If you do that you can delete what you don't want from the transferred library.
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder. If you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
    You do not want to use a new AppleID.  Change the  AppleID on the new phone to the old ID.  Purchases made with one AppleID cannot be transferred to a different one and it will be a royal pain to manage two Apple IDs.
    Change iTunes Store account on an iOS device - Log out of your current account with Settings.app > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) > tap on your AppleID. Log in with a different account. Note, turning on automatic downloads or re-download past purchases may tie the device to that account for 90 days - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 https://discussions.apple.com/message/18484935 - "In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account") When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again."

    Assuming you bought the song at the iTunes Store, you can go here
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    and follow one of the "paths" to get what you need or to an Apple customer support employee.  One path is to click Contact Support at the bottom of the list of choices, and use the Express Lane.
    The iTunes app also has a way to report a problem with a purchase.  Select iTunes Store in the sidebar (of the iTunes window).  Toward the upper right corner, click on your Apple ID.  This gets you to your Account Information screen.  Find Purchase History and click See All.  On that screen, you can select a specific purchase with that problem, and Report a Problem.
    If you want to try to figure out WHY that song does not play on your iPod shuffle, please post back...
