I'm having trouble assigning keyboard to their own channels.

I have trouble assigning keyboard to different channels. I am using 3 keyboards. One is an M-Audio Keyrig49 which is using on USB port. The other two MIDI keyboards are ports A and B going through an M-Audio MIDISPORT 4x4. The Macbook is detecting 5 MIDI channels (4 from the MIDISPORT and one from the Keyrig49), but keyboards always "learn" on channel 1. I would like to assign each keyboard to its own channel. Suggestions?

Actually, you can assign each keyboard to its own group of 1-16 MIDI channels. I'm using 3 keyboards, too, and I believe you'll find it easier to do it this way. Below is a snapshot of Audio MIDI Setup. All my keyboards are connected to USB MIDI cables. USB ports work the same way. I named and color-coded all the USB MIDI cables and keyborad icons for easy ID and troubleshooting. Then when you create and assign screen controls in layout mode, it's easy to find the right keyboard(fig. 2).
Each keyboard can transmit on any and all MIDI channels, without conflicting with another MIDI device. Hope this helps.

Having trouble the keyboard on the iphone

I having trouble with the keyboard in the new update. If I use the left side of the keyboard it deletes stuff, skips lines and thinks I've hit enter. After a few minutes it starts working. it happens every time I use the keyboard functions. Its super aggervating it takes me forever to type anything. Especially frustrating if I am trying to log on to anything. Is the anyway to fix it. Cause one of these days I going to throw this stupid phone.

I had this problem after downloading Dropbox. Once I uninstalled it, my keyboard was fine.

Having trouble assigning the Data Type to Shared Variables

I have some type definitions that I need to use as shared variables. When making the shared variable, I create it and then name it. I then select "From Custom Control..." in the Data Type field and select the applicable type definition. The problem is that it displays some other type definition. Am I doing something wrong? I am using LV v.8.6. I don't recall having this problem with v.8.5.1.

Hi Hunter,
All the custom controls are set to Type Def. Since sending my question, I noticed that the system uses the first similarly used custom control and it's name. For example, I have several clusters that each have four numeric controls in them. When creating a shared variable for each of the various clusters, it uses the first custom control that was set up as a shared variable. I hope this makes sense to you. I have not had a chance to see if the shared variables are working because I have other issues to deal with first.
What troubles me is that I don't recall seeing this with v.8.5.1.
I suppose I could and perhaps should use a common type def for all similarly used shared variables.

Having trouble assigning "buttons" to mute certain tracks on&off

I can assign all the faders and trim knobs on my "Novation reMOTE sl61;" but i cant seem to assign any of the "buttons" on my device to map the sameway i can get the other knobs and faders to map on my device.
I want to make sure what I'm doing can even be done in Mainstage for one. What i have is a concert with 2 vocal tracks and a midi keyboard track. what im trying to do is i add a "button" parameter in the "workspace" section. and im trying to map that button to mute one of the vocal tracks on and off.
I have sucessfully mapped the button to mute the track on and off by using the mouse click in the workspace section. but the button on my device still wont map, which is what i need it to do.
What should i Do?

Yea it does, but this is when midi mapping gets a little confusing for me.
this is what im working with here. It says that the number is 40(#08lsb) and when i press it the numbers underneath the highlighted button say "40" and "0" underneath the "40" and the "0" changes to a "1" when i press it. but i still cant get the button to illumitate or trigger what i want it to.

Having trouble understanding scancodes (and their udev mapping)

First off, I know that scancodes are basically the raw byte interpretation of keyboard presses which I can display for example with showkey --scancodes.
However why does showkey display at least two bytes for each key that I press (is it for press/release?) and for some keys even 4 and more? And how can I dump that down to a single byte which I can specify in a hwdb database for udev?
For example, this is the output for Fn+Brightness Up/Down:
showkey --scancodes
kb mode was UNICODE
[ if you are trying this under X, it might not work
since the X server is also reading /dev/console ]
press any key (program terminates 10s after last keypress)...
0x9c
0x1c 0x9c # pressed Enter
0xe0 0x54 0xe0 0xd4 # pressed Fn+Brightness Up
0xe0 0x4c 0xe0 0xcc # pressed Fn+Brightness Down
The according mappings for brightness up/down in the udev database for my keyboard model are:
KEYBOARD_KEY_88=!brightnessup # Fn+Up
KEYBOARD_KEY_89=!brightnessdown # Fn+Down
So assuming 0x54/0xd4 and 0x4c/0xcc are my "relevant" bytes, how do they lead to the scancodes 0x88 and 0x89 in the hwdb?

Yes thats what I assumed, however what I dont understand is which one do I need in case I want to overwrite or add a new key in a (custom) udev hwdb file.
The wiki doesn't mention anything specific about the difference between key press and key release and in the example I provided I was wondering how these scancodes for press/release of a key combination from showkey -s (like 0xe0 0x54 0xe0 0xd4) led to the specified value (0x88) in the udev hwdb file, since the wiki suggest that one should use showkey -s[ to figure out the scancode of a key.

Having Trouble Associating Keyboard and Mouse

Using Windows Multipoint Server 2011 - I cannot get the keyboard and mouse connected via downstream USB Hub to associate with direct connected monitor. When the screen comes to select B to associate, I get a Windows Multipoint Server 2011 logo screen
saver and the logo just moves around the screen when I press anything on the keyboard. If I attach a ps2 keyboard and mouse to the station it also will not associate with the direct connected monitor.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi Pamorific,
I had a similar problem today with WMS 2012 and had to buy a USB (non-powered) hub from the local Curry's. That did the trick straight away.
Not sure whether that'll work in 2011, but for the sake of £8 it would be worth a shot!

Is anyone having trouble opening iTunes on their iPhone?

For the past two days I have tried to open iTunes on my iPhone 5 and first it said it couldn't connect and now it crashes.

iTunes runs on your computer, not your phone. Please re-phrase the question.

Is anyone having trouble with FaceTime on their macs?

Every time I try to log into my apple account to facetime an error message appears saying "the server encountered an error processing registration. please try again later" What does this mean?? This has happened to me before and i brought it into the apple store and they fixed it for me but i cannot remember what they did to fix it. If anyone knows please message me back! Thank you !

This could be a complicated problem to solve, as there are many possible causes for it. Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. That could be a public Wi-Fi hotspot, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or at your ISP, not in your computer.
Step 1
Check the status of the service. If the service is down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
Step 2
Restart your broadband device and your router, if different. You may have to skip this step if you don't control those devices.
Step 3
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ About This Mac
Below the "OS X" legend in the window that opens, the OS version appears. Click the version line twice to display the serial number. If the number is missing or obviously invalid, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.
Step 4
Back up all data, then take the steps suggested in this support article.
There are five steps in that article. Please take all of them. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
Step 5
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.
Step 6
Reset the NVRAM.
Step 7
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.
Step 8
Boot in safe mode and log in. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.
If iMessage worked in safe mode, but didn't work when you booted out of safe mode, stop here and post your results.
Step 9
According to one anecdotal report, Flash Player may interfere with iMessage, though I don't know how and can't confirm. To test this theory, select from the menu bar
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
and click
Block all sites from storing information on this computer
Close the preference pane. If this action solves the problem, please post your results.
Step 10
Reinstall OS X.
Step 11
If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support.

For exapmle, in my shortcuts I have "idk" to change to "I don't know" whilst typing.

IDK if this will help, I turned documents off in icloud and they worked, but when I toggle or turn documents on....no luck.

Has anyone tryed the emoji un/reinstall? I'm fine with the documents being off in icloud......for now. I hope this helps someone.

Updated iphone 5 to iOS 6.1.3, now trouble with keyboard not responding correctly and screen zooming in by itself...

updated iphone 5 to iOS 6.1.3, now I am having trouble with keyboard not responding correctly and screen zooming in by itself...
Buttons pressing themself...
Also, my main screen is permanently zoomed in...
suggestions?

Double tap the screen with THREE fingers, that should get it back to normal again.
Then go into Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom > OFF.
Not too sure about the keyboard and random button presses though. Back it up and restore from iTunes, see if that fixes it.

I updated my iphone5 to the 6.1.2 OS and now I am having trouble when connecting my iphone5 to the USB port, I am not getting any funtionality from my steering controls, and the phone book only show the most recent calls, not the entire phonebook.

I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station.

I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station. The Keyboard and mouse work great with the laptop lid open but when closed in the docking station the bluetooth signal does not seem to transmit. Is there a setting that can be changed to allow an Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to wake the computer while docked?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I have an iPhone 5c. Just started having trouble texting to certain numbers. I send a message, they receive it (most of the time) but it also comes back to me saying not delivered. Also, their texts to me are delayed, sometimes 4hours and sometimes more?!

iMessages. I have gone into settings and turned off iMessages for one minute then reactivated it. Then I turned off network settings and then back on again. Today I'll try and restore the phone again to see if that works. Frustrating!
