I Haven't Found Anyone Else With This Recording Problem....Please Help!!!
Hi, I'm new to these forums but i've been involved with music for a long time and just recently purchased a brand new intel iMac with the new Leopard OS.
I am running Garageband with the M-Audio Firewire Solo interface. Everything works perfectly fine, the sound is great, no sluggishness, none of the common problems that I've seen on here except for one frustrating problem!
Every time I go to click record it takes a good 40 seconds to a minute, sometimes longer before it actually starts recording! What I mean is that there is a huge delay between the time i click the record button and when it actually does it. Garageband will just sit there frozen with the color wheel going until finally the count in starts. When it finally starts recording it works perfect, records with no delay, monitoring works and everything is set up correctly, but I just DO NOT understand WHY I get such a delay between the time I push the button and for the action to happen!
Can someone please explain this to me I don't know what else to do. Hopefully it is something small but I've literally tried just about all combinations as far as I know... I've tried all the oddball solutions like repairing permissions but still no luck!
Please help I would greatly appreciate it so that I can get to finishing my projects as soon as possible!
This is just a guess... I'm assuming your external HD is a USB drive.
When the external HD isn't formatted for MacOS X-specific functions, the HD registers as a USB device to GB. Just a non-Mac, non-descript USB device. Not a HD specifically, just a general device of sorts.
Maybe when GB wants audio input, it polls the USB chain for appropriate USB sources. A non-descript device neither confirms or denies what it is. Worse, it could share a USB ID reference that might be similar to the audio interface, so there might be a lot of ID checking and prioritising before anything can happen.
Formatting the USB drive to MacOS could allow GB to give it a nod of acknowledgment and move on.

I can't get a picture outside on my new ipad. Anyone else with this? problem?
I can't get a picture outside on my new ipad. Anyone else with this problem? What should I do?
You're post is not very clear. Are you asking if other people have difficulty viewing their iPads in bright sunlight? Yes, everyone does. The type of screen the iPad has doesn't work well in bright sunlight. If you're wearing polarized sunglasses and can't see anything on the screen, try rotating it to landscape.
If you're asking something else, please explain. -
Haven't Seen anyone else with this problem
I installed the iTunes update that everyone seems to be having problems with, but my problem is different from everyone else's.
My iTunes launches itself a couple of minutes after I quit it. I made sure I wasn't accidentally opening it by exiting everything I was using, exiting iTunes last and then leaving my computer alone. It still launched itself for no apparent reason.
I think I'm going to go back to the older version of iTunes until this is solved.This behavior has plagued users long before iTunes 8. It's usually caused by a third-party application or widget that's attempting to communicate with iTunes for some reason. This can include the iTunes Dashboard widget. Try disabling such items and see if the behavior stops.

Unique situation - have not found anyone else with this one
Here goes:
PowerMac G5 running 10.4.4 was purring along nicely on Windows network, no problems for months. Strange power outage in that office. Power restored, computer boots fine.
Here's the interesting problem - everytime it goes to acquire a DHCP address, it finds that it's in conflict with MAC address xxxx.xxxx.xxxx. It quickly tries to grab a new one, but again shows a conflict - but continues to use the same MAC address as a "conflict" until it uses up all the IP addresses in the DHCP leasing scope, not allowing anyone else to acquire a new one.
OK - why not try assigning it a static IP - same problem - just starts popping up error after error - all the same MAC address - sequential IP addresses.
Try moving it to another port on the wall - did that - different office in same building, still same issue.
Moving it to a different network - now works fine - accepts its IP.
Trying another Mac at original location - same problem.
Trying PC at original location - no problem.
Searched network for annoying MAC address - does not seem to exist. Tried swapping out network card - same problem. Checked switches for ARP entries and looked at the MAC tables - no sign of the malignant MAC address.
And the clincher - have other Macs on the same network - no problems.
Except for that port on that wall - with any Mac - problem - with PC - no problem.
That particular Mac anywhere else in the same building - problem - other Macs in same building no problem.
Needless to say - it's been extremely frustrating. Does anyone have any ideas what I should check for? Thanks in advance.
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)Sorry - I forgot. The dialog that pops up is:
IP Configuration
<IP Address> is in use by <MAC Address> -
i can no longer shoot directly into phaseone software - neihter version 6 or 7 - since i use my new macbook pro with retina display. pictures are not transfered from the camera into captureone. anyone else with this problem? any solutions?
My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
or http://www.apple.com/contact/
We are just end users here helping other end users.
Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
Good luck! -

Radeon HD 5770 graphics card works perfectly with my MAC Pro 1,1 and Adobe CS6. However, I upgraded to Adobe CC and Photoshop CC disabled some filters and 3D functionality. The preference panel for Performance/Graphics Card in Photoshop CC is greyed out and inaccessible and shows this message -
"Photoshop detected an error in your display driver. Update or reinstall the driver and check Use Graphics Processor to retry."
I still have Photoshop CS6 installed and it still works perfectly. Anyone else with this issue? Is there a driver update for this compatable with my setup?
OS 10.7.5
Mac Pro 1,1

Safari crashes and shuts down every time I visit Grays Online. Anyone else with this problem?
Safari crashes and shuts down every time I visit Grays Online. Site usually flicks off in under a minute. Anyone else with this problem?
The website may need more memory than you have available if you are running iOS 5.1.1 on the original iPad. Try some basic troubleshooting steps. Maybe quitting all apps might be the best thing to try.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit ALL apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -
i have a 2008 imac with snow leopard. i installed update 10.9.3 not realizing it's best for Maverick's users. Now my Itunes 11.2.2 won't burn playlists to CD. Anyone else with this problem? CAn I uninstall the 10.9.3 update? Also my HP scannerwill not save the displayed scanned document since this update! it just saves gray.
If you have your old system backed up then erase the drive and restore your backup. If you don't have a backup then backup your entire Home folder. Erase the drive and install Snow Leopard after which you can restore your Home folder from the backup.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
(Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
Or you can:
Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Reinstall the 10.9.3 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.3 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 Update (Combo). -

Own two iphone 5s with ios 7.0.2 loaded. Both phones do not allow camera video to start. Anyone else with this issue? Any suggestions how to correct?
Hello markittwo,
Thank you for details about the issue you are experiencing with recording video after upgrading to iOS 7.
The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhones:
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.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5137
If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the Camera app, I recommend restarting your phones and then resetting if recording video still not working:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhones:
