Is there a way to have automatic MIDI network connections?

I have an environment where I'm using an iPad with my own software to connect to a Mac and send MIDI data to it from time to time. I've used the Audio MIDI Setup app to configure the "Network MIDI" and it works fine, detecting my running iPad MIDI app. However, if I close my iPad app and reopen it even just a minute later, the Network MIDI connection is gone and I have to reopen Audio MIDI setup to restablish a connection.
I'd like for this to happen automatically if that's possible.
Thanks,
David

    I can see an RSS folder from SharePoint on my phone (yay!) - is there a way to have this with the "Connect to Outlook" option?
    We've got a bevy of test phones here and I've been able to see RSS feeds in an Exchange setup using Android (along with other folders) but no Lists that were hooked up using "Connect to Outlook" button from SharePoint.

    Hi,
    You are viewing Mobile view of the site into your phone. If you open the same site in normal PC view i.e. the same look which you have in your computer then it will give you an option to connect to outlook.
    Hope this helps

    Thanks for the suggestion but clicking on 'Connect to Outlook' from various phones doesn't seem to work.  "This webpage is not available." -- I didn't really expect it to do anything as I think this was meant to be done on a computer.  And then
    the result is that the documents would be available in Outlook. 
    And then, my question kicks in:  is it possible to see these files that are now in Outlook on a phone that's connected to the Exchange Server.

  • Is there any way to have more than 28 connection terminals?

    I am using the application builder to create DLL's for a futures trading system and want a few more than 28 input/outputs... is this possible? I would pass arrays... but, the software interface on the other side is limited and cumbersome. If I could have 40 terminals, for example, my needs would be met when building these DLL's. Any way to do this? Any way to create a DLL with more than 28 input/outputs?

    Hey Gonzo,
    My first thought is that you really might want to reconsider this VI that you are developing. Is there another way that you could design it such that it does not require more than 28 inputs/outputs?
    Some other information that could be useful: what do you plan on calling this dll from? just how many inputs and how many outputs are you looking at?
    There is an example in the NI Developer which talks about using a structure in a dll to correspond with a cluster in LabVIEW. Using Structures in a DLL with Clusters in LabVIEW If it's possible, try and take a look through the example and see if this option co
    uld work for you.

    Myself as well...
    I think it is a tremendous problem. Im my case it is extremelly important to manage, organize and sort favorites.
    I am new to Mac and safari... and I spent a lot of time researching a solution for that thinking it was me that couldnt find this option. I like to use safari because of the "gestures". This is great. But when it comes to favorites, safari is a nightmare!!!
    Also, I use to like the option in Firefox that we can have the leftside bar with the favorites and navigate to the links in the right. In safari the links are open in the full page. And then we need to come back to the favorite everytime.
    I would be glad if someone could come out with good solution or suggestions how to deal with it in fafari.

  • Just started using Lightroom 5. Is there a way to have imported photo changes in Lightroom automatically happen on my hard drive (MAC), this includes develop/editing changes and location changes. Do I have to import them a specific way or have a change se

    Got tired of iPhoto and finally committing to using lightroom. Using the Lightroom 5 i purchased last year and want to commit to making it my primary way of managing and editing all of my photos ( about 8K). Is there a way to have imported images from my hard drive/Finder (MAC) show as the edited or moved image when i am working in lightroom? Basically want what i am doing in Lightroom to be reflected on my hard drive and vice versa so that i don't have to "add" or "copy" every time I want to work in lightroom.

    No need for apprehension Heath.
    Unfortunately Lightroom does have certain limitations:
    A particular catalog can only be accessed by one instance of Lightroom at one time.
    (ie it is not designed for multiple simultaneous access.);
    As far as I am aware a catalog cannot be accessed remotely although images can be.
    Victoria Brampton has a solution using Dropbox where both the images and the catalog are stored on Dropbox.
    Individual users download the catalog to thier workstation and work on images etc and then shut down Lightroom and update the catalog back to Dropbox.
    No one else should acessing the catalog or images while one user is using the catalog and images otherwise a conflict will arise and someones work will be erased.
    Disclaimer: this sort of setup is NOT supported by Adobe and is not risk free (for more reasons than I have elaborated).

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

  • Is there a way to have what used to be called "Macros" (a small blurb that you type repeatedly over and over)?

    Is there a way to have the use of what we used to call "Macros" which would be a key you could hit where you have installed a word, phrase, etc that you type repeatedly? By this I mean if, while on line, you repeatedly type out the phrase "Thank you very much for your attention to this matter"....you could hit a key (like maybe F5 or something similar) that would automatically type this phrase out so you don't have to type it over and over and over again.

  • Is there a way to play a MIDI file?

    I would love to use Mainstage2 but is there any way to play a midi file now? I have an external DMX controller that gets it commands from MIDI and is programed to match the playback tracks. So far my only solutions have been to use Ableton LIVE or DP.
    Thanks
    Chris

    If you're still looking for a solution to this problem, you should try out the newest version of SysEx Librarian (http://www.snoize.com/SysExLibrarian/). There is an option in the preferences to enable a column where you can set a program change number per sysex (midi) file. Then you can set MainStage to route midi program changes to SysEx Librarian, and whenever a program change gets sent out (either by a mapping or because you switched patches) it will play out the midi. Works great for me!

  • RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the samemachine

    Sean,
    I mean I am always connecting to the nodemgr of the 2nd environment
    successfully. Only when I run the client part of the application that I know
    is up, I get a response from the Name Server that it is actually the first
    IP address.
    I checked again. I defenitely have FORTE_NS_ADDRESS set to IP:5004, in my
    case, and not the hostname. I don't have FORTE_LOCATIONS set any where. the
    NS_ADDRESS for env2 has only 1 IP address associated with it. My Forte
    Control Panel on the client, and hence the NS address has only one entry.
    I tried going into escript like you said, and the name service still thinks
    it is IP1.

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same
    machine
    Hmmmm? That is a little odd! Let me rehash what I think you are saying.
    You now have two environments each with their own name service with
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS set to a different IP:Port combination. For example you
    are doing the steps:
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.1:5000
    start the nodemgr for env 1
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.2:5000
    start the nodemgr for env 2
    Now when you start a client you are always getting the address for env 1
    back from the nodemgr. I assume you actually mean the name service? Or, do
    you mean you are always connecting to the nodemgr & name service for env
    1?
    If the first scenario is the case and you are connecting to the nodemgr
    for
    env 2 but getting back IP's for services listening on the card for env 1 I
    would ask you what you are setting the FORTE_LOCATIONS value to before you
    start each service. If you are not setting it or are using the host name
    it
    will register using the IP for the primary network card associated with
    the
    machine name and I am again assuming that this is env 1. You need to set
    the FORTE_LOCATIONS variable to 255.255.255.2:0 (based on the steps above)
    before starting your services.
    If the second scenario is the case I would have you check what the
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS is set to before you start up the client. Once again it
    must be the IP:Port combination not host:port combination if you want to
    get
    anything other than the primary card.
    I would also suggest that you do the following. After everything is up
    and
    running execute the following commands:
    escript -fns "ip for env1":port
    findsub nameservice
    showpart
    What you should see is everything currently registered under the name
    service. It will have the name and any "locations" (IP and port) that it
    is
    registered as listening on. I would look for the nodemgr and see where it
    has advertised itself. I would then look for any services you expect to
    be
    registered there and also verify where the have advertised themselves. If
    there are multiple locations listed for any one service, the client will
    use
    the first one in the list.
    Do the same for env 2.

    Hello Venkat,
    I probably should have mentioned this before. Your are correct. Forteis
    doing a host lookup if you are providing a name for examplemachine1:5000.
    You can bypass the host lookup by using the actual ip dot addressinstead
    for example 255.255.255.255:5000. This way you are taking the name
    service
    out od the picture and Forte will use the address provided.

    My requirement is that my second card serves as best case performance
    testing piece. This eliminates the network completely. We went one step
    ahead and created a new enviromnent for the second card. Whatever I do,
    the
    nodemgr is returning back the IP address of the first card, even thoughmy
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS does not have the first card in the picture any where.
    I think Forte is doing a host look up and returning the first IP address
    it
    finds, as opposed to returning the IP address specified in theenvironment
    variable FORTE_NS_ADDRESS. Is there a way to trick it?

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same
    machine
    OK, you ran into one of the issues. That is, if both addresses areknown
    to
    the client that is trying to contact the partition it will always usethe
    first address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. This is because FORTE_LOCATIONS was
    designed more as a failover mechanism. So it will always try the
    first
    address in the list and if it succeeds, there is no reason to move onto
    the
    second.
    Now, the second issue is that there is currently a problem with theclient
    failover to the secondary address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. If the firstentry
    fails it is supposed to retry on the second entry. Instead, it
    retries
    the
    first entry again. I know that Forte knows about this but I do nothave
    a
    bug number on it.
    With that said, lets look at a possible solution for you. If the real
    objective here is to have a back up network card available for fail
    over
    on
    the same machine, or use one card to advertise outside your firewalland
    one
    to use inside, then you will have to contact Forte to determine whenthe
    failover problem will be fixed. But, if the objective is to loadbalance
    across the network cards you could have the environment manager listenon
    both ports and then alternate your server partitions across both
    cards.
    For
    example:
    set FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=card1:5000;card2:5000 and then start up the
    environment
    manager
    set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card1:0 (the 0 in the port causes the OS to pick a
    port)
    and start partition one
    set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card2:0 and start partition two
    and so on....
    In this scenario the environment manager will be listening on bothcards
    but
    each server will be listening on only one of the two cards. So if a
    request
    comes in for partition1 it will go through card one and if it is for
    partition two it will go through card two. You could assign your
    partitions
    to cards based on expected load.
    Well, I am done. I hope this helps!

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the samemachine
    Sean,
    Thanks for your reply. I tried the approach. I was not very specificin
    my
    question. I do need the ability for server applications to listen and
    server
    on both the network cards.
    I was succesfully able to make the nodemgr listen on both the cardsand
    actually serve requests coming in from both the cards. But, followingyour
    advise, I took a cautious step with FORTE_LOCATIONS. Here is what I
    noticed.
    I have an application that has 6 partitions in total. I used
    FORTE_LOCATION
    to make it listen on 1. Both the cards. 2. Swapped the IP addresses
    for
    both
    cards for this application. 3. One card that I want it to listen on. I
    tried
    all approaches by exporting the locations variable for just this
    application. The nodemgr recieves a request from this pc connected onthe
    second card to talk to one of the partitions. The node mgr responds
    with
    a
    proxy - with the ip address and socket number of the first card. The
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS variable looks like this:
    IP1:5002;IP2:5002.
    Is it possible atall to resolve my problem, without having a seperate
    environment?
    Thanks

    Venkat,
    Actually, it is possible for Forte to listen on more than one IP andport
    combination. The first reply to your message was correct. If you
    set
    the
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS to contain multiple entries before starting the
    name
    service, it will advertise on both. For Forte servers you use the
    FORTE_LOCATIONS env variable to get it to advertise on multipleip:port
    combinations.
    We were doing something very similar with another customer I was at
    to
    get
    around a firewall. I will warn you that there are some issues with
    FORTE_LOCATIONS that may keep that portion from working. However,
    from
    reading your note, it appears that all you need is for the nameservice
    to
    advertise and listen on multiple ports and that works fine. I justtested
    it again for sanity sake and it worked. I ran my test on NT using
    Forte
    3G2.

    Venkat,
    Technically yes this is possible, though not in Forte. A nameserver
    can
    only listen on one port.
    To implement this scheme you will have to write a proxy service (insome
    language
    including perhaps forte) which listens on the well-known port on the
    second card, reads requests, then forwards them to the realnameservice
    (wkp on the first card), and forwards replies back. This is not
    trivial, but some firewall toolkit vendors supply stub code to write
    application specific proxies.

    Hello Venkat,
    I probably should have mentioned this before. Your are correct. Forte is
    doing a host lookup if you are providing a name for example machine1:5000.
    You can bypass the host lookup by using the actual ip dot address instead
    for example 255.255.255.255:5000. This way you are taking the name service
    out od the picture and Forte will use the address provided.

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same machine
    My requirement is that my second card serves as best case performance
    testing piece. This eliminates the network completely. We went one step
    ahead and created a new enviromnent for the second card. Whatever I do, the
    nodemgr is returning back the IP address of the first card, even though my
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS does not have the first card in the picture any where.
    I think Forte is doing a host look up and returning the first IP address it
    finds, as opposed to returning the IP address specified in the environment
    variable FORTE_NS_ADDRESS. Is there a way to trick it?

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same
    machine
    OK, you ran into one of the issues. That is, if both addresses are known
    to
    the client that is trying to contact the partition it will always use the
    first address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. This is because FORTE_LOCATIONS was
    designed more as a failover mechanism. So it will always try the first
    address in the list and if it succeeds, there is no reason to move on to
    the
    second.
    Now, the second issue is that there is currently a problem with the client
    failover to the secondary address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. If the first entry
    fails it is supposed to retry on the second entry. Instead, it retries
    the
    first entry again. I know that Forte knows about this but I do not have a
    bug number on it.
    With that said, lets look at a possible solution for you. If the real
    objective here is to have a back up network card available for fail over
    on
    the same machine, or use one card to advertise outside your firewall and
    one
    to use inside, then you will have to contact Forte to determine when the
    failover problem will be fixed. But, if the objective is to load balance
    across the network cards you could have the environment manager listen on
    both ports and then alternate your server partitions across both cards.
    For
    example:
    set FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=card1:5000;card2:5000 and then start up the
    environment
    manager
    set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card1:0 (the 0 in the port causes the OS to pick a
    port)
    and start partition one
    set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card2:0 and start partition two
    and so on....
    In this scenario the environment manager will be listening on both cards
    but
    each server will be listening on only one of the two cards. So if a
    request
    comes in for partition1 it will go through card one and if it is for
    partition two it will go through card two. You could assign your
    partitions
    to cards based on expected load.
    Well, I am done. I hope this helps!

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same machine
    Sean,
    Thanks for your reply. I tried the approach. I was not very specific in
    my
    question. I do need the ability for server applications to listen and
    server
    on both the network cards.
    I was succesfully able to make the nodemgr listen on both the cards and
    actually serve requests coming in from both the cards. But, following your
    advise, I took a cautious step with FORTE_LOCATIONS. Here is what I
    noticed.
    I have an application that has 6 partitions in total. I used
    FORTE_LOCATION
    to make it listen on 1. Both the cards. 2. Swapped the IP addresses for
    both
    cards for this application. 3. One card that I want it to listen on. I
    tried
    all approaches by exporting the locations variable for just this
    application. The nodemgr recieves a request from this pc connected on the
    second card to talk to one of the partitions. The node mgr responds with a
    proxy - with the ip address and socket number of the first card. The
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS variable looks like this:
    IP1:5002;IP2:5002.
    Is it possible atall to resolve my problem, without having a seperate
    environment?
    Thanks

    Venkat,
    Actually, it is possible for Forte to listen on more than one IP andport
    combination. The first reply to your message was correct. If you setthe
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS to contain multiple entries before starting the name
    service, it will advertise on both. For Forte servers you use the
    FORTE_LOCATIONS env variable to get it to advertise on multiple ip:port
    combinations.
    We were doing something very similar with another customer I was at toget
    around a firewall. I will warn you that there are some issues with
    FORTE_LOCATIONS that may keep that portion from working. However, from
    reading your note, it appears that all you need is for the name serviceto
    advertise and listen on multiple ports and that works fine. I justtested
    it again for sanity sake and it worked. I ran my test on NT using Forte
    3G2.

    Venkat,
    Technically yes this is possible, though not in Forte. A name server
    can
    only listen on one port.
    To implement this scheme you will have to write a proxy service (in some
    language
    including perhaps forte) which listens on the well-known port on the
    second card, reads requests, then forwards them to the real nameservice
    (wkp on the first card), and forwards replies back. This is not
    trivial, but some firewall toolkit vendors supply stub code to write
    application specific proxies.

    Folks,
    Here is what we would like to do:
    We want to have 2 network cards on a unix box - which means I have 2ip
    addresses, and the connection between the two is the unix box and onlythe
    unix box. I have a pc connected to the 2nd network card and I want it
    to
    connect to the nameserver that is listening on a well known port onthe
    first network card. We don't want to turn IP forwarding between thetwo
    cards. We want Forte to address both cards to talk to clients, in one
    environment.
    Can this be done? If so how?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Is there a way to have two separate projects open in different windows?

    On my old editing software, I could have two separate projects open at the same time. I could copy clips from Project A, click over to Project B, and paste the Project A clips to Project B. Is there a way to have two separate projects open with Premiere Elements, or will I have to just import and trim every clip within the same project?

    Welcome to the forum.
    Unfortunately, PrE will not allow two Projects to be open at the same time. It will also not allow multiple instances of PrE to be open.
    The workaround, to accomplish what you describe, is to use a ClipBoard Extender, such as ClipMate, which will allow one to Copy a Timeline, or parts of it, from one Project, then Close that one, to Open another one, and Paste the material, that was Copied. Many users employee ClipMate, or similar, to Copy/Paste material from one Project, to another.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
