Help with ODBC setup for MySQL

I am having issues understanding what is needed for ODBC setup on OSX. I need to setup a MySQL connection. Are the drivers included on Snow Leopard or if not were can I get them. Are they free or do you have to purchase them. I keep find documentation that assumes to much. Would appreciate any help.
Will have to repeat this for my Lion server after I get this to work.

Thank you for your very quick reply!
I have read through the Disk Setup page, and it has cleared up a couple of points.
Now, from what I understand - running the Media on a RAID 0 arrangement, doesn't seem to be a great idea due to no redundancy - however, I'm confused as to whether storing the media on 1 HDD would make for stable streaming of multiple streams of HD footage in Premiere sequence...
I found the comparison between the SSD & HDD interesting too, in the sense that running two large HDDs in RAID 0 for the Media Cache & Previews is actually 'quicker' than running them off a single SSD - and that no redundancy isn't so much of an issue here, as they're just the previews, not the actual media.
So, am I right in saying the setup below would offer a much more efficient solution than my current disk setup, whilst still keeping costs low by using software RAID, rather than buying large SSDs?
Disk 1: OS & Programs (SSD)
Disk 2: Media & Projects (HDD)
Disk 3/4: Media Cache & Previews (2x HDD in RAID 0)
Many thanks, once again!

Help with DNS setup for LAN only

I have a Mac Mini SNS 10.6.8 as our company's local standalone fileserver.
Everything has ran great for the past year (still is), but now I want to try and setup DNS for more control and services.
The server host name is servername (no FQDN), which shows up in Server Admin as servername.local.
I read and followed Hoffman Labs great step-by-step, but must have missed something, since I still cannot get DNS resolution.
Here is a brief summary of the Server Admin settings:
          Host Name                    servername
          Host (Server) IP          192.168.4.2
          Router IP (also default public DNS IP) 192.168.4.1
          Bonjour                    Wide Area = Not enabled
          Settings                    Accept recursive queries = localnets
          Settings                    Forwarder IPs = 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 (Google Public DNS)
now...          Zones                              1 Primary Zone = companyname.net (we own the domain)
                                        Primary Zone Name = companyname.net
                                        Nameserver Zone = companyname.net
                                        Nameserver Host Name = servername.companyname.net
                                        2 A Records:
                                        servername          192.168.4.2

                              Current hostname          =          servername
                              The DNS hostname is not available. Please repair DNS and re-run this tool.
I must be doing something wrong, but I don't know what it is. Please help.

Did you intend to have both "example.com" and "example.net" listed there? Are those domains really different? I'm going to assume that was an obfuscation error. (This is part of the "fun" of obfuscation, unfortunately. Of having to differentiate errors in the actual configuration from errors that were introduced during the obfuscation.)
>Oddly, even though I had manually assigned our Comcast gateway's DNS to Google DNS IPs, the gateway summary still shows up as Comcast's DNS server IPs. So I removed the manually assigned Google DNS IPs from the gateway.
The gateway (or whatever you're using as your DHCP server) should be configured with the DNS server address of 192.168.4.2. All other hosts on your network (if you're planning to use your local DNS everywhere on your LAN) should also reference 192.168.4.2, either through an explicit static configuration, or as the address that was received from the DHCP server.
And as for IP routing, are all your hosts, network printers, network gateways, DHCP servers, etc., all in the range of 192.168.4.1 to 192.168.4.254? (They should be, if you're using a /24-class 255.255.255.0 subnet mask.)
But then I don't know where this configuration has gone off the rails... (Over the years, I've seen and have made my own configuration errors, I've been "bagged" by DNS caches, and I've hit various bugs in DNS implementations.) What you have stated here should work.
I'd start at the top of the DNS configuration article, and not stray from what is written there.   That there has been Google DNS and have had ISP DNS configured at the gateway does mean there were some areas that have strayed from the article.   I'd suggest following the DNS server configuration directions exactly.
Setting up DNS services with OS X Server isn't difficult, but it can be a little fussy.
If you don't understand something that's written in that article -- or if you believe you need to enter something different than what's listed there -- then please stop and ask about it. Either ask here, or ask over there. (This feedback also helps improve that article.)
Straying from what's written in that article is certainly and entirely feasible, but that's something best left until after the adminstrator is more familiar with running a DNS server. Once you know how and why and where you can stray, there are all sorts of things you can do within a DNS configuration.

Help with initial setup for AirPort Express

Now, before we decided to go wireless, our internet was configured like this: cable cord to router, ethernet cable connecting the router to CPU. This worked fine and our internet has never really had any sort of problems. However, we have had problems with our new AirPort Express. I've tried taking the ethernet cable that's connecting our router to our CPU, and using it to connect the router to the AirPort Express.
However, I keep getting the flashing amber light. When I go into the diagnostics, it says that it cannot pick up an internet connection, even though I'm able to get internet when I plug in directly. If I try to ignore this and set up the account anyway, I can get my computer to connect to the AirPort Express, but I can't get the AirPort Express to connect to the internet.
Please help!

pen22, Welcome to the discussion area!
Did you configure the AirPort Express (AX) to use the same settings as your CPU to connect to the internet?

Need help with correct setup for SuiteLink - Get ACE error message 7078

When I enable SuiteLink via:
ace_set_mode( g_ah, ACE_MODE_ENABLE_SUITELINK, TRUE );
ace_set_file( g_ah, ACE_DIR_SUITELINK, "D:
PW
201108
SuiteLink" );
ace_set_file( g_ah, ACE_DIR_NAME_PARSING_FILES, (char*)"D:
PW
201108
ncoalink");
Right after
ace_open( g_ah );
I get the following ACE error: 7078
where the description is: an incompatible version of the name parsing library required to run was found.
1) I'm not entirely sure where ACE_DIR_NAME_PARSING_FILES should be pointing to. We don't use NCOA but the documention says both SuiteLink and NCOALink use the same parsing files.
Inside NCOALink\ there is parsing.dct with a datestamp of 1/13/2009 which seems old.
I am running ACE800cRev5, just downloaded the July 2011 directories. ace32.dll version 8.4.5.0
Thanks!

Michael,
A regular ACE job with Suitlink enabled would also use the same parsing files located in ncoalink\. The parsing.dct included with my ACE 8.00c.05 is also dated 1/13/2009.
I have little expertise with ACE RAPID, but I would guess that ACE_DIR_NAME_PARSING_FILES should also be set ncoalink\

Brandon

Help with Simple Applescript for Midipipe

Hey all, I'm in desperate need of help with some Applescript for use in a program called Midipipe:
http://web.mac.com/nicowald/SubtleSoft/MidiPipe.html
I simply require an Applescript for Midipipe that filters out all OFF notes except for the most recently pressed key, or most recently pressed ON note. So for example, when multiple keys have been pressed, only the most recently pressed key will send an OFF note. I hope that is clear enough, i've had some major issues trying to get this work and my last hope is to hit the forums and find some help .. I've posted on some of the audio forums and i'm hoping someone here knows how to code this.
Thanks so much!! .. Its for an upcomming show next week so i'm hoping someone can get me in the right direction to solving this.
-Jes

I try to help, but you'll need to apply your brain cells to get it working with what I've already explained (three times with what I offer below). Try something like the following (I am renaming your buttons to ch1,ch2,ch3,ch4,ch5,ch6 so that the same functions can be shared by all buttons...
// this assigns listeners to all 6 buttons
for(var i:uint=1; i<7; i++){
          this["ch"+String(i)].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToSeekToCuePoint);
// this processes any one of the 6 btns when they are clicked
function fl_ClickToSeekToCuePoint_1(event:MouseEvent):void
    var btn = event.currentTarget;
    var cuePointInstance:Object = vid.findCuePoint(btn.name);
    vid.seek(cuePointInstance.time);
   resetButtons();    // this makes all buttons go back to normal
    btn.upState = btn.overState; // this makes the clicked button change states
function resetButtons():void {
     for(var i:uint=1; i<7; i++){
          this["ch"+String(i)].upState = this["ch"+String(i)].hitTestState;
For this to work, your buttons need to have the same artwork in the hit frame as they do in the up frame.

Help with system upgrade for CS6

Hello. I am hoping you can give me some advice on what to do (or buy) to improve my video editing system. I am a bit of novice when it comes to the technical/hardware end of things and I’m having some issues with my current system.
I working in Adobe CS6 Master Suite on a Windows 7 Ultimate PC. I mainly use Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, and Audition. I create very complete animations and videos with many layers and effects (via Boris & Red Giant). I also use Skype to record group video calls (with the program Evaer) for a reality T.V. recap show which I also edit with my Adobe suite. However I have two main problems.
When I render out a 20 minute premier pro project (with several HD video layers and effects) it takes almost 13 hours. It seems like this is very long considering my high end components, and set up. For example I run ONLY my OS off an SSD. My programs are on another SSD. The files I use for the video are on another HDD, and I render to another HDD. I was told by keeping all the aspects on separate hard drives it would speed everything up. Is that true? I also am now reading that rendering to a SSD would speed things up. Should I consider changing my workflow/hard drive set up that way?
My other problem is that when I record my Skype group calls of 4 people (with Evaer) to my SSD the audio is always off when I bring it into Premiere. I don’t know if this is a problem with Evaer, a codec (it records it as H.264/MPEG-4 AVC Codec. At 1280 X 720 and 30fps), that SSDs auto compress files, or that my system just cant handle it. Plus Soundblaster & Nvida both seem to active as audio features on my system I don’t know if that effects anything. Is there any advice any of you have on this issue as well? Perhaps another program to record skype or group calls?
Finally… all that aside. Considering the work I am doing should I just upgrade my system to a better Mobo and graphics card. I see a lot of people are recommending a dual processor work station. If so what is a good motherboard, and processor(s) I should get if I build my own workstation? I have about $4000.00 I could invest in building one if you think would greatly improve my work flow and render times. I also have a quadro k5000 on the way, and id like to be able to use the memory I have already.
I realize I am asking a lot of questions. I would truly appreciate any help, advice or just a point in the right direction. I have included my current system specs below incase that helps with any of my questions. If you have any other questions or need more information just let me know. Thank you again in advance for any help you can provide.

Eric,
I would hardly call the Quadro card an upgrade to a GTX 680!
Regarding getting more speed from a faster MB / CPU, since you already have a 6-core rig with 24GB of RAM I would think that any gains you would get would not be that dramatic.
Check out your cpu usage (Task manager) and see how busy your cores are during a test render. I am guessing that the Boris and / or Red Giant effects could be jumping your projects from gaining the full multi-core capabilities of the Adobe software.

Jim

Help With My Setup...

I Hope I'm in the right forum, If not let me know where this post should go.
Thanks for helping me out. I have some questions regarding my setup and acquiring new gear. Currently, I have a the following setup:
IMac - newer model
Logic Pro 9
Numark tt-usb turntable
Stanton DJ mixer
Pair of Yamaha HS80 monitors
MPD 24
I would like to add a keyboard controller (I'm thinking of the new Korg Microsampler). Basically, I'm willing to get the microsampler as long as it can Fully function like a controller, which can control logic synths & plug-ins(axiom, mpk, etc.) and as well as it's own features. Furthermore, I would like to to be able to record from my turntable to logic and into the microsampler. I understand I would need an interface. Would I still need the mixer? Would the M-Audio Firewire Solo work with my setup?
Would a control surface take place of an Interface?
I am possibly interested in getting a control surface that works good within logic. I was looking at the Euphonix MC Control, it seems to work great with logic. Is there an cheaper alternative? Also, I would like it to be user friendly, I am new to this.
Essentially, I want everything to work simple & smoothly. I like to make sample based music from records. Can you give me a rundown of the necessary items I'm going to need...cables, interface, etc.
Sorry, if I'm rambling just want to be clear.
I appreciate your time....

I use a Alesis multimix FW and a presonus inspire.
I would guess that you should always get dry sound from any output with firewire plugged in or not. My inspire uses a software control panel to route signal and the Multimix is all hardware. I have no clue how to route signal with the firebox but it has to be one or the other. Presonus is pretty good with updates and bug fixes did you check for new drivers?

Need some help with guitar setup...

jeez, never thought i'd be asking a question like this after playing for like 20 years, but i need some help with a guitar setup for mac. i'm gonna list out a lot of crap here that prolly doesn't affect anything at all, but here goes.
Imac 17inch G4 - latest updated OS X... 10.4, or 5, or whatever. garageband 3.0
digitech gnx-3
alesis sr-16
sure mic's
yamaha e203 keyboard
here's the setup:
yamaha is on its own on a usb uno midi interface, sure's connected to gnx's xlr port, alesis connected to gnx's jam-a-long input, '87 kramer vanguard connected to gnx's guitar input. currently running headphones out on gnx to line in on mac.
here's the problem:
everything works beautifully, but my guitar sounds like crap. if i plug headphones into the gnx, it sounds beautiful. that makes me think its some kind of level issue between the gnx's output, and the mac's input, but nothing seems to fix it.
by sounding like crap, i mean way too much bass. sound is muddy, blurry, not crisp... aka crap. i've tried altering both output and input on mac and gnx, and i cant get a combination that works. the gnx has a s/pdif out, can the mac accept that as input? might that help? short of running the gnx to my marshal half stack and mic'ing that, anyone have any suggestions, or use a similar setup?
any help would be greatly appreciated!

anyone? ... any suggestions? I think it might be an issue with the gnx pre-amping the signal as it goes out, and then the mac amping it on the way in, giving me a buttload more signal than i need, but since i cant find a happy level, i'm not really sure. i really dont want to resort to mic'ing my marshall... even with the volume almost off, my jcm900 is WAY too loud for apartment use. its not like i really NEED the guitar to sound perfect, i only use garageband to sketch out ideas for songs between myself and bandmates, but its really annoying to not have my customary crisp distortion. my bass player keeps telling me to use the built in amps, but, not to dis a practically free program, but the built in amps blow, at least after 10 years of marshall tube amplification they do. if anyone has any suggestions that might be helpfull on how i might resolve this, i would be your best friend for life and go to all your birthday parties

Help with print settings for Panoramas

Hi,
I use an Epson 2880 and I am trying to figure out the print settings for doing an 11 x 34in panorama print on 13" roll paper from Aperture 3.0.3. I finally got it to do one print properly, but the setup was totally counter intuitive and I can't reproduce it. I tried using "Custom" Paper size and setting it to 13" x 36", then using the landscape mode and setting the Image Size to 11 x 34". Any way I did this ended up with the image printing the wrong way on the paper. So I went back and picked "Roll" paper. This leaves only one field to fill in, which I presume is the paper width (it really didn't make this obvious in the dialogue.). Then I set the mode to Portrait, and made sure that the settings for the Image size were 11 x 34. It then printed fine. But when I went back to print another file, even though I had saved the settings, now I am presented with only one box for specifying the Image Size and there is no way to get it right again. HELP! The settings for this kind of print in Photoshop is also counterintuitive, but when you get it set right, and you know the settings, no problem reproducing it. I think maybe there is a bug in AP3 with regard to this sort of setup.

Need help with Printer Setup conventions

I can't get my Brother printer to print from one computer--but it prints okay from the other computer on my network. I need to know the conventions for the Printer Setup Utility.
There's a checkbox by every printer on the list. What does it mean when the checkbox is grayed out?
Some printer names appear in bold. What does that mean?
Thanx.

Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your help in this and just want to understand what you're saying.
As I say, the printer is displayed in the print dialog box but the checkbox is grayed out. I'm assuming that when you say "...it can't find/see them now," you mean the print dialogue can't see them (the drivers). Your last sentence confuses me. You say, "Do you maybe have Printer Sharing enabled & they aren't actually directly connected? If so you have to reboot after turning it off." A little confusion about your antecedents here. What isn't actually connected? The printer? So I have to reboot after turning it off, "it" I suppose is the printer, is that right? I will try that. So turn printer off, reboot, turn printer on. Right?
I will describe my problem. l thought that if I understood why the checkbox was grayed out I might see what my problem was. If you want me to start another topic I can do that.
Problem: I have a network with 2 computers and the Brother
multifunction fax/printer. I'm using an Apple airport hub. The printer
and one computer (Mac tower) are connected to the airport base via
ethernet. The 2nd computer (Apple laptop) is on the wireless network.
Until recently i could print from both computers. Now I can't print from
the tower. But I can still print from the laptop.
When I try to print from the tower I get an error message that says, "Cannot print from current printer." I have rebooted, reinstalled printer drivers, checked cables, deleted printer from printer list and re-added printer all to no avail. But as I say, I can still print from the laptop which is using Airport. So the printer prints, the hub connects to the printer okay (ethernet) and I know the tower connects to the hub (I can ping the printer okay from the tower.)
I am conversing to Brother support via email and their first suggestions I have already tried. Perhaps there's some problem in the network, but I can't figure it out. Worse yet, now when I go to the Network preferences I get an error message which says, "Your network settings have been changed by another application." THIS ERROR MESSAGE WON'T GO AWAY! I can click 'okay' but it reappears. I have to force quit the System Preferences to get out. If you can help with any of these problems I surely appreciate it.

Help with DS setup

Sorry about the double post, but I accidentally changed DS to DSL in the Subject line with the Spell Checker. That is how frustrated I am .
I bought a WRT54G2 router last year to hook up my Ipod touch to the internet. I assumed that later I could use it for my DS as well. Well I tried and failed. I know my router isn't setup for WEP, and through reading other threads I have learned that is what is needed for DS. I tried typing in the http://192.168.1.1/ all that comes up is a Verizon DSL page and nothing like what anybody has described. I don't know where else to go to change the settings. I don't have a wireless network tab when I go to my network connections through the control panel either. My Ipod touch works great with my existing network, so I know I did something right when I set it up, but I am getting more and more frustrated trying to set this one up. PLEASE HELP!! I am at my whit's end. Although I am not computer illiterate and I completely network illiterate so please write to me in the most basic terms that you can. thanks so much
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello Reneester, the reason why your Verizon home page comes up and not your Linksys page when you type in http://192.168.1.1 on the address bar because some DSL connection uses the same IP address just like your Linksys router (most especially your DSL provider which is Verizon). To get into the page of your Linksys router, you need to check what IP address your PC's receiving from your router.
How to do this? (follow this steps on the PC that is wired to the router)
> click Start and click Control Panel
> on the left side of your Control Panel, look for Switch to Classic View and click it but if you have Switch to Category View then your Control Panel is already on Classic View.
> click on Network Connections
> look for LAN connections and right-click it to bring up some options
> click on Status
> a small box will appear on the screen, go to Support tab and take note of the Default Gateway numbers. This is your router's IP address and this is the number that you need to type in on the address bar of your internet explorer.
> once you've taken note of your Default Gateway, close everything and open Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox and type in the numbers.
> hit Enter and it'll come up with a Username and Password box. The default router password is admin and just leave the username blank but if this will not work then try to remember the router password that you've setup when you first setup the router using the setup cd.
Hope that helps! Good Luck!

     }What I would like help with is the following
I would like output to either a JLabel or JTextArea to appear if a file appears on the network. Something along these lines
If file named nststrace*.* is in \\[network path] then output Download successful, please proceed.
btw I have done my best to search this forum for something similar and had no luck, but I am looking forward to Encephalopathics answer as he/she has consistently made me laugh with posted responses (in a good way).
Thanks in advance, Paul.

we're starting to get aquainted, but I think "best friend" could take a while as it is still as hard going as I recall, but I will persevere.Heh, it's not so bad! For example, if I had no idea how to test whether a file exists, I would just scan the big list of classes on the left for names that sound like they might include File operations. Hey look, File! Then I'd look at all of File's methods for something that tests whether it exists or not. Hey, exists! Then if I still couldn't figure out how to use it, I'd do a google search on that particular method.
