How to set up an existing Yamaha N12 with a new iMac

Hi,
I hope someone can help me.
I just bought a Yamaha N12 mixer Dec 2009 last month and been trying it with my MacBook Pro. It's firmware has been updated to work with the Yamaha Steinberg FW driver, and it's been communicating fine with the my MacBook Pro.
Now the problem. I just bought an iMac 27' running Mac OS X 10.6.2 last week.
How should I get the N12 to talk to my iMac? What sequence of driver installation should I go about?
Should install all the Tools for n/mLan drivers that came with the N12 installation discs still? And then carry on with installing the Yamaha Steinberg FW driver over it? Or can I straight away install the latest Yamaha Steinberg FW driver?
I'm afraid of technical problems as I might have screwed up my first iMac's firewire 800 port when I installed the Yamaha Steinberg FW driver straight away. Luckily the Mac shop was kind enough and willing to give me a one for one replacement of the iMac due to the firewire port problem. I'm not sure to what extend the firewire800 port problem might have with the FW driver installation or if it was a manufacturing defect. In anycase, its a one-time only exchange. And I now have the replacement iMac, and the firewire800 port is working fine. I'm now hesitant to install anything so that the iMac can talk to my N12 in the worry that it might affect anything if I did the wrong steps especially the firewire 800 port.
Please help if you might know of the correct steps? i just want my N12 to talk to my new iMac without any possible spoiling of my firewire 800 port due to wrong installation steps on my part.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Regards,
BG

What does Yamaha's User Manual says about driver installation? Did you follow the instructions as indicated with your 1st iMac? Are there any notes in the driver installation instructions saying that there is a risk of damaging a FireWire port when you do something in the wrong order? If so, you must follow these instruction carefully in order not to screw up the 2nd iMac, I presume.
However, from my experience, you can't really "screw up" a port by installing a driver. But you must also be aware that the driver has to be suitable for the current operating system of your iMac (that is for Snow Leopard or Mac OSX 10.6.2)

  • How do I use an existing cfp program with a new unit?

    I have an existing compact fieldpoint setup (IAK file & Programs) that I would like to install on a new unit.  How can this be achieved?

    Hi DavK.  Unfortunately there can be a lot of 'well, that depends' in how you go about moving an application
    to a new FieldPoint controller.  The following is based on the assumption that you do not have the development
    environment available; if you do, it is probably easier to just recompile targeting the new controller.
    The exe is fairly easy:
    1) ftp into the controller
    2) cd to ni-rt\startup
    3) rename startup.exe or startup.rtexe to 'something else'
    4) delete 'something else'
    5) ftp in the new startup.exe or startup.rtexe
    6) ftp in any supporting files (i.e. for external calls)
    7) in c:\ni-rt.ini set  RTTarget.ApplicationPath=c:\ni-rt\startup\startup.exe (or .rtexe)
    8) in c:\ni-rt.ini set RTTarget.LaunchAppAtBoot=True
    The .iak setting is probably easiest to re-create with MAX, rather than copy in.
    The depends part comes in with how the I/O channels were named or referenced in the .exe.  As long
    as everything was done in a generic (consistent between controllers) way you could be ok.
    My guess is that if you have trouble it will be here.
    Hope that helps.

  • How can I replace an existing html website with a new one I just created on iWeb?

    I just created a new website on iWeb. It as to be published as a html site. Someone else already created a previous site, and used the name of my company. We hired him to do it, but he didn't do that great of a job, so now I need to know how to replace it. Thank you for your help!

    Make sure the site folder created by iWeb is named exactly the same as the site folder currently on the server.

  • How can I use an existing iTunes library with a new iTunes account

    My daughter is going to college, and wants to untangle herself from the family iTunes account. Right now, we have three iPods with libraries on three computers, all using my iTunes account - and have had no problems.
    She has signed up for a new account, but her previously purchased songs (on my account) won't play on her computer (new computer, iTunes is currently almost empty library), because it is authorized to HER iTunes account.
    What is the best way to import her iTunes library that was created using my account onto her new computer? (Old library is on a PC, she now has an iBook, purchased used on eBay.) Is there any way to get these songs to play using her new account info? Can I maybe copy them somewhere without the metadata and then move them into her library? I realize that would lose ratings and other info, but would it get rid of the block? I'm not trying to do anything dishonest - these are personal iPods, personal computers, all within one family, we've paid for all music on them.
    Any advice is greatly appreciated!
    (I posted this in the iTouch discussion, and then thought it wuold be better answered over here.)

    Then can her computer be authorized to both accounts?
    Absolutely. You can authorize any given computer to up to five iTunes Store accounts.
    If purchases are made on her account, to a computer authorized to my account, can I put those songs on my iPod?
    If you connect your iPod to her computer, yes. Tracks download only to the computer from which they're purchased, regardless of which iTunes Store account is used for the purchase. Or you could copy the tracks from her computer to yours and then authorize your computer to her iTunes Store account. But that's sort of defeating the original purpose, it would seem to me.
    is it better to buy music through Amazon downloads and/or actually purchasing CDs to avoid the security features iTunes puts on its music?
    That's certainly an option. If it's an entire album I want, I buy CDs. That way I can import them at the quality I want and to whichever of my systems I want. Amazon or one of the other download stores that offer tracks as MP3 are also an option, though for me download stores are best when you just want a couple of tracks off a given CD.

  • How can i use my old airport express with my new imac and wireless hp print

    i just bought my first imac (intel) and a wireless hp printer. i now realize that a wireless connection between my imac and my printer needs a router.
    i have an airport express base station, which is a few years old. I can't find my documentation, so i don't know its specifications.
    how can i find out the specs of the airport express i have and whether i can use it now? it says that it is model a1084 100-240v~ 0.2a 50-60 hz.
    does that tell any knowledgeable people out there about the specs? can i search the apple website by serial number and find the specs?
    thank all of you potential responders ahead of time.

  • How to transfer vhs home movies to dvd with my new IMac

    I'm looking for suggestions from people who have been successful with any product that is not too difficult to use that will help me get my old home movies (vhs) to dvd and hopefully be able to do some editing in iMovie. 

    I have done lots of this.
    You need, an Analog to Digital converter, iMovie, and iDVD. (You don't need a DVD player, just a VCR.)
    VCR -> ADVC300 -> Mac. (DVDs come out of the Mac.)
    To get your VHS video into iMovie, look at the Grassvally ADVC300. Audio and Video go in, FireWire comes out. It also comes with a nice Macintosh application that works flawlessly with iMovie 06 and iDVD 09/11 (I have used it a few times with iMovie 09 and 11).
    The program that comes with the ADVC300 has some nice filters that can improve video and audio of the source material. The ADVC300 will take Audio and Video from any source (VCR, Tivo, Satellite Receiver) and convert it to FireWire (iMovie will treat it like a camera).
    http://www.grassvalley.com/products/advc300
    For maximum quality here is my procedure:  ADVC300 > iMovie 06 > iDVD 11
    I would use iMovie 06 with iDVD 09/11, why?
    iMovie 09/11 uses 'single field processing' meaning every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage. iMovie 06 uses ALL of the image to form the video.
    If your primary workflow is editing DV clips and making DVDs, iMovie '06 is better suited. Your movie will arrive at iDVD in DV format, which is an ideal match for making a DVD: same resolution, same pixels aspect ratio, and original quality.
    If you share your movie from iMovie 09/11, it gets re-rendered at 640x480 or less, and then iDVD upscales it back to 720x480. The end result is obviously not as good.
    iMovie 06 and iDVD 09/11 is a "lossless" combination.

    Witch Roles and Features do I need, RD Session Host, RD Connection Broker, RD Licensing?
    /SaiTech

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Based on your description provided, I can understand that you want to setup RDS server 2012 R2 and want information how to achieve that. If misunderstood then please correct.
    If yes, then there is different option related to setup. There are 2 option for configuring. 
    1. Role based or Feature based installation
    2. Remote Desktop services installation
    For normal RDS environment, you can use 2nd option and then perform Quick start Deployment where 3 roles can be installed RD Connection Broker, RD Session Host and RD Web access. After this you can also publish RemoteApp and can use. 
    You can refer following article for more information.

    I moved to new house where I have wifi base station I made extension via TP-link power line adapter and connect my Airport utility 6.3.2, but I don't now how to set up as a second network with one IP address?Could you help me please?

    Urvergessen wrote:
    +You may have already done this, but do you have the first AirPort Express configured to "Allow this network to be extended"?+
    Could not find that setting anywhere.
    It's in AirPort Utility, AirPort panel, Wireless tab.
    When I'm within the range of the base station I connect normally, but further away the connection drops despite the fact that the other Airport is very close and light is green. Interestingly, my PB Pro has signal almost everywhere in the house, but my iPhone and Mac Mini don't. Most likely just a hardware difference?
    In AirPort Utility with the second Express, in the AirPort panel, Wireless tab, have you checked "Allow wireless clients"?
    The second AP does show an IP address: 10.0.1.3.
    With a "Configure IPv4" setting of "Using DHCP", that suggests that the second Express really is connecting to the first Express. In that case I have no other explanation of your your problem.

  • How to set color space to JPEG image with Java advance Imaging

    How to set color space to JPEG image with Java advance Imaging.
    is there any API in JAI which support to set color space.

    I'm definately no guru, but this is how you can change it.
    CTRL + ALT + Click on the part of the component that you want to change. This brings up the Hidden Dom Inspector, background of component will be surrounded with a red outline (Make sure the red outline is surrounding the part of the tabset you want to change), Now you go to properties sheet and click the ellipses next to rules property this will pop up a dialog you look in this list (At the top) to see the default style classes that are affecting the rendering of the component outlined in red. (You will be able to select different sections of a single component) then you just rewrite the style class that you want to change in your Stylesheet (You will not find the styleclass that you want to change because it is a part of your theme .jar but as long as you name it exactly the same and place in your stylesheet it will override the theme .jar style classes) it's actually very easy -- you were right should be a piece of cake for a guru. Don't have the link handy but you can check out Winston's Blog on changing Table Formatting to get this information...It is EXTREMELY useful if you want your apps to have a custom look and not default that comes with Creator Themes.
    Hope this helps you out God knows others have helped me alot!
