Line in, line out, line this, line that... all confused!!!

I am a new mac user and am trying to record a basic guitar track. For now, I am just using a 1/4 inch jack with an 1/8 adapter which is plugged into the line in. Now, I have put the line in option in system preference and have put the line in option in GB as well. The track is set to record and still nothing happens. I have also tried both channels (1 and 2 as well as stereo) My computer is still not picking up the signal. I know you guys have probably answered this before but I have been reading for the last hour and still havn't found the answer to this question. Please help!!! Thanks
mac book pro Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I don't have any of that stuff for the moment. I can't believe apple would have made it that hard to get a signal out of the instrument! I was hoping it would be simpler than that. I can't get any signal weither I'm using my electric guitar, my accoustic guitar or a simple mic. I just don't get it and it's getting pretty frustrating!!! Thanks for your help and if you can think of anything that would solve my problem, it would be much appreciated!

I don't want to do the recovery thing to my iPhone4, but my iPhone is at the stage in the update where it says to plug it into iTunes, is there some way to get out of this or save all of my data somehow?

i don't want to do the recovery thing to my iPhone4, but my iPhone is at the stage in the update where it says to plug it into iTunes, is there some way to get out of this or save all of my data somehow?

What do you mean the "update" says plug it into iTunes? If you have the iTunes logo/USB cord on the screen, it's in recovery mode or needs to be activated. Anything that was on the phone is already gone. You have no choice but to plug it into the computer. Hopefully, you backed it up before you started the update.
If that's not what you mean, then please explain.
Apple may or may not be able to fix the lock button for you without replacing the phone entirely. You'll have to take it in and ask.

Should I delete my old iPhoto Library Current folder once everything is transferred to Photos Library Current? Does this mean that all my new photos on any device can come off my Mac and ONLY be in the Photos Library which is in the cloud?

I have 2 questions about the new Photos app for Mac (I'm running 10.10.3 on my MacBook Air 1.8GHz Intel Core i5 mid 2012)):
1.Should I delete my old iPhoto Library Current folder once everything is transferred to Photos Library Current?
2. Does this mean that all my new photos on any device can come off my Mac and ONLY be in the Photos Library which is in the cloud? That would free 59GB off my Mac and that would be very good.

1.Should I delete my old iPhoto Library Current folder once everything is transferred to Photos Library Current?
You can, but I would wait, until you have have been working with Photos for some time and are sure, that everything migrated well. There may be hidden flaws in your library and teething problems with Photos. Don't be in a hurry to abandon iPhoto completely. You may need to go back, until bugs have been fixed. Th Photos Library does not duplicate the photos in your iPhoto Library. the media files are shared and do not need extra space: See: Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
2. Does this mean that all my new photos on any device can come off my Mac and ONLY be in the Photos Library which is in the cloud? That would free 59GB off my Mac and that would be very good.
If you have enough iCloud storage. But Photos will still need space for local thumbnails on all devices.
See: Apple - OS X - Photos Preview
Fill your library, not your device.
iCloud Photo Library can help you make the most of the space on your Mac. When you choose “Optimize Mac Storage,” all your full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud in their original formats, with storage-saving versions kept on your Mac as space is needed. You can also optimize storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, so you can access more photos and videos than ever before. You get 5GB of free storage in iCloud — and as your library grows, you have the option to choose a plan for up to 1TB.

In navigating the updated Firefox, I accidentally got onto "full screen." How do I get out of this so that I can restore my toolbars?

In order to see even the minimal tool bars, I must "toggle" my mouse up and down. I want the tool bars to stay on the screen all the time. How do I make this happen?

HT201317 Some photos go to Photo Stream and some go to Camera Roll. How to fix this so that all go to Photo Stream when I take pics?

Sometimes when I take pics on my iPhone 4s the some of the pics go to the Photo Stream while others go to the Camera Roll. Why do they not all go to the camera roll? How to fix this?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
All photos taken on the phone go to the camera roll. If photostream is enabled they should also go to photostream in addition to photos added from other devices. Photos added to photostream from other devices will not be added to the camera roll on your phone (unless you move them manually.
Photos taken on the phone should be added to camera roll immediately, it may take a few moments before they appear in photostream, while they are sent from the camera roll to the cloud and back again to photostream.
If photos aren't being added to photostream there may be a couple of reasons:
Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
If the problem persists:
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

Scrolling sidebar- can I make a template out of this?

scrolling sidebar- can I make a template out of this?

That's not possible (although a good idea). You can copy/paste a sidebar widget, though. So, create your base widget which will serve as your template, and then you can copy/paste it when needed throughout your iBook.

I need to cancel a line that is no longer used but I'm told that, since I transferred an upgrade from the unused line, the contract on the unused line was extended by two years. If I need to cancel both to get out of this, so be it but I'd rather not and

I'm paying for 2 smartphone lines when only one is in use. It's a waste of money that I can no longer afford. I would like for someone to present me with options or I will have to seek an alternate service provider.

Ok so now there are presumptions of both my ignorance and my dishonesty. This has become the most surreal conversation I've had in some time. I've been a VZW customer for over 10 years and no, this is not something I've ever done before. In the past, if I wanted a new phone before my 2-year deal was up, I paid full price for the phone and kept living. That's how the system works, right? In this instance, I had two lines on my account, each with different contract end dates. The secondary account was 6 months out-of-contract and unused but, for personal reasons, I kept the line in force. The person who used the account setup another account with VZW with another phone. But I kept the line active, just in case.
In the meantime, when reviewing my account online, I noticed an option on the secondary account of "Transfer upgrade". Given my understanding of the definition of the word "transfer" as well as my previous dealings with VZW phone upgrades, it seemed logical that, since both phones were under the same master account, the upgrade with its requisite contract extension would apply to the line that actually used the upgrade eligibility. It was therefore, my expectation that the primary line would either have two years tacked on to its current end date or, at the very least the contract end date for the primary line would be 2 years out from the date the upgrade was exercised. Both options were acceptable to me since, at that point, I was not considering the termination of my relationship with VZW. I knew I needed a phone with more battery life than the one I had and carrying one of those battery charge packs around wouldn't work for me. So, I clicked the transfer upgrade button on the secondary account. I then saw the primary account show as eligible for an upgrade. At that point, I upgraded the phone on the primary account. There was no point where I was notified of a 2 year extension on the secondary account and, once I clicked the "Transfer upgrade" link, there was no mention of or reference to the secondary account.
I'm not sure of who I'm replying to or where they are from so I cannot speak to the people they encounter on a day to day basis. I have not stated nor do I have any desire to get away with a free early upgrade. It should be noted that we are discussing a discounted upgrade, not a free phone. I still paid $150 for the phone and was happy to do it. However, this idea that I'm trying to circumvent the system is offensive. I'm not trying to get away with anything. As I've said in previous posts, I expected to burn discounted upgrade eligibility on the primary line for a minimum of 2 years. I actually expected the new contract end date to be 3 years away, which would have been more than fair for all concerned. Fairness, it seems, is running in short supply.
If all you have to say is that I'm stupid, ignorant, or dishonest, please don't bother to reply. If you can in some way help to bring this to a satisfactory resolution, I'm all ears. Can you hear me now? Good.

How do you fix lines that come up on an iPod Touch (5th Gen) once it turns on after running out of battery?

This has happened to me about 4 times now. I just got a brand new iPod touch (5th Gen) after replaceing my 4th gen iPod. I havent had it for a month, so its still brand new. The only thing is that when the iPod runs out of battery it turns off (duh) but it doesnt turn back on when you plug it in to charge. When I noticed that the iPod doesnt turn on, and I hit the power button, lines appear on my screen. They are lines that run up and down the screen from left to right. I try factory resets, setting resets, restoring my iPod. But this issue keeps coming up. I honestly dont know what to do. This thing is brand new and its acting up on me. Should I take it to my apple store? Should I just put up with it. I have tried everything and at this point I dont know what to do anymore. Please help!!

- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Since you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem
If the iPod is defective within warranty (you indicate it is) and not abused Apple will exchange it on the spot.

I can't trasfer music from my library in itunes to my iphone 3GS. A black ring with a line through it comes up when i try to move music onto my iphone from itunes. How can I fix this so that I can load my phone with music?

I can't trasfer music from my library in itunes to my iphone 3GS. A black ring with a line through it comes up when i try to move music onto my iphone from itunes. How can I fix this so that I can load my phone with music?

How are you trying to transfer it and what are your setting on iTunes. I'm not on a computer that has iTunes at the moment so I'm going from memory and similar issue. If iTunes is set to sync music then I don't think you can select and drag, if set to manual manage music then you can. Also make sure you are dragging to music on the iPhone.
Hope this helps

I cancelled my plan on January 28th and yet I'm still being billed and my last line that was supposed to be cancelled is still active! This needs to be fixed ASAP!!!!

I was told my line was cancelled on the 28th of January and that I would be receiving no more bills of any kind. Yet some how for a line that isn't even in use I got a bill that is nearly $300!!!! How can this be!?

First off, I'm only another customer like you, and have no access to your bills or account. All I can offer is possible reasons why you are now getting a bill.
The line(s) you cancelled were under contract, so involved an ETF if cancelled before the contract ended.
The line(s) were for a phone purchased using the EDGE agreement, and there is still a balance due on the phone.
Billing for service for the billing period in which you cancelled - you are billed till the end of the current billing cycle, so it could be up to a full month's service, depending on when you cancelled and when your billing cycle falls.
A combination of these possibilities. The bill you received should show you a breakdown of the charges.

How can I get rid of the fine, black, vertical "glitch lines" that print from my InDesign doc?

In the three orange ellipses in this photo, you can see some of the vertical lines that have been driving me crazy. Any idea what causes them?
I've tried separating adjacent lines onto different layers, merging layers, and everything I could think of. I haven't been able to find anything with google searches-- but maybe there's a name for them I don't know.
Is there any way I can copy the whole page I've made in InDesign into Photoshop or Illustrator, then save the entire page with all its photos, lines, and type as some kind of an image file? If so, what file should I use that would keep it really sharp? My boss, of course, wants even the tiniest print on the labels in the photos still readable.
Thanks so much for helping me. I'm at my wits' end, because if I print directly from InDesign I sometimes have glitch lines here and there throughout our manuals, but if I try saving any composites from PhotoShop; it blurs the type and lines.
--Stan B.

HURRAY! Cheers, confetti, balloons, and a free party to all of you (I wish) !
I took the "looks good" page in my InDesign Document, and:
1. opened a new document in PS with a white background,
2. copied the photo there, as the background layer,
3. grouped and copied all the text and callout lines, on another layer, and
4. copied the big company logo at the bottom, as another layer. (Each became a Vector Smart Object as I copied it in.)
I then saved it as a PSD file, then as a TIF file, and finally as a PDF file.
When I printed out the page directly from my InDesign document-- linked first to the PSD, then relinked to the TIF, then relinked to the PDF-- all three pages printed out perfectly.

Need help forming randomly colored lines, that are equidistant(ex included)

My assignment: The
top-right cell requires horizontal lines that are equidistant in the cell. Each line is 10 pixels apart. Additionally, the lines need to be colored randomly in any possible red, green and blue range.

(example of what I need to do)
what I have now: http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i35/stxda/current.jpg
I have all the lines coded for the top right cell, but I do not know how to get the colors random. I only know how to set all the lines to one single color.
Below is my coding:

g.drawLine(a,20,a,290);
// BELOW is for the top right cell, which is int b. so far
// i've only done the lines, and not yet the random colors
for (int b = 10; b <= 290; b += 10)

Make lines that don't show on print?

Hello,
I'm trying to figure out if there's any way to draw "hidden" lines in a PDF-document using Acrobat 9? By hidden lines I mean lines that are only visible when I have the document open on my computer, but hidden if I were to print it out.
Thanks!

When you want to apply an annotation (tools off the Comment and Markup Toolbar) to a PDF but not have it print to paper look at the upper right of the Print dialog.
Observe "Comments and Forms" (upper right of the Print dialog).
This has a drop-down menu.
Select "Document". With this selection, only page content is printed - no annotations.
This might be useful to you when using the Line tool.
Be well...

When printing an AutoCAD-exported PDF file, the paper version has lines that screen does not show

Hello,
We were contacted by our customer, a landscape architectural company that uses our product, M-Color, (http://m-color.com) to plot AutoCAD drawings with required preferences and effects.
However, they provided us with a sample PDF files, that contain examples of scanned drawings, that have some "ghost lines" at the drawings that the screen does not show.
We tracked the issue and it appears to be an issue with Adobe Reader pringing. We tried many versions from 8.0 version onwards to the latest versions available in public, all represent the same issue.
This may be an issue of the original drawing having some line that was not marked ending at some point.
The zip file within the link below has three PDF files, two from the company that brought this issue to our awareness and the one with name "scanstation" is printed by me, and then scanned with markings to explain the issue.
Any ideas what would be the best solution to solve this issue?
https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=FF1904428CF64324!1445&authkey=!AMwkjv9QMg-Gawg

Edit>Preferences>Accessibility... Replace Document Colors (use custom colors - black on white)
That usually fixes ghosting...

Line in, line out, line this, line that... all confused!!!
