Logic 8 third part plugin interface problem

got problem with the third part plugins interface, installing for example Lexicon native bundle, when running logic 8 and clicking on insert plugin white square appears. I didn't made any update of Logic since last year because when i did it once, Logic started to freez and crush constantly, so i re installed from new. I heard if the logic running fine don't do any updates. Most of the plugins runs ok, but some appearing as a white square, any ideas?
feflix

I've had this sort of thing when running plugs in a VST wrapper (are you using AU?) .... but if you've just spent £1000.00 equivalent on the native bundle - get in touch with Lexicon - they're sure to want to help customers like you

  • Logic Pro 9 & Motu 828 interface problem ?

    Hi all. I am running Logic Pro 9 on my iMac with a Motu 828 mk2 audio interface connected by firewire. It used to work fine with logic but strangely i now have a problem.
    It works fine with iTunes music and listening to sounds/mp3s etc from my desktop but as soon as i boot up logic pro and try to work on a project the only sound output i get is very high pitched noises and large gaps between these noises. It wont play any sounds at all through pro even samples via the browser.
    Can anyone help or explain what maybe wrong? i havent a clue whats happened!
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Paul, sounds like the MOTU needs a reset.
    - Unplug the firewire
    - press the button "setup", turn full
    - right until "factory default"
    - push select
    - confirm with "value"
    - Power Off the Interface
    - Power On The Interface
    - Reboot The Mac - Let it settle
    - Plug the Firewire Back In
    Did you do an OS upgrade with the MOTU plugged In, any time you do an OS upgrade, even if it's just an incremental one (10.8.3 to 10.8.4) unplug the MOTU, some garbage is usually sent out the firewire port during an OS upgrade.

  • Using third part loops in Logic : bpm changes not following by the loop

    i use lots of third part loops. with other audio soft when i choose a loop and drag/drop it to my project, the loop follow every change of the project (for exemple changing the bpm). In logic, when i do so, the loop do not follow project changes such as bpm.
    Someone do knows how to fix my problem ?

    I just found that you can drag/drop your third part loops from the Finder window where they are to the "Media/loops library" in Logic. By this way Logic recignize your loop as apple loop. But it works for apple loop third part loop and not for wav third part loop. For those you have to transform them by the "Apple loops utility" given with Logic. It's a bit long with big loops database but it's the first way I found.
    If someone know a quicky way, I'm interested

  • Logic X and 9 looking for third party plugins in the wrong place Mavericks

    Hi all
    i'm having trouble loading up old sessions in logicX and Logic 9 with my recent upgrade of computer which came with mavericks.
    can anybody please help me!!

  • Standardise definition & selection method for ALL third party plugin presets!!!

    Over at LogicProHelp there is a very useful topic relating to Logic presets - in which many users have spent time saving individual third party plugin settings as LOGIC presets... which is enormously helpful when selecting instruments etc because they can be selected using a keystroke etc and found within the Logic Library browser window - which is of course searchable!
    These presets have then been uploaded to the forum for others to download.
    http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=367267#367267
    I posted on the topic recently and thought it worth mentioning over here on the Apple forum.
    Here's what I said - does anyone agree/disagree? Is this something that Apple should work on? For me it's a no brainer but I'd like to know what others think....
    "MO 3rd party instruments that rely on mouse-clicks or anything more than one button press to change a preset are incredibly badly designed. It's massively frustrating and impedes creative flow to have to use a mouse, or press several keyboard buttons just to move from one sound to another. Native Instruments interfaces are amongst the worst offenders - you even have to MANUALLY specify what presets you want to use with specific MIDI Program Change messages - because the latter are the only way I know of using anything other than the NI interface to change sounds in their plugins.
    The Logic Channel Strip settings saved along with 3rd party Plugin settings saved as Logic Presets have proved a recent revelation for me.
    Now I can change instrument presets using a keystroke, a midi message, almost anything I want.
    And then there's the Logic Library browser - now that so many sounds are saved as Logic Presets, the Logic browser window has become really powerful - being able to search my entire library for "bass" or a particular instrument name - REGARDLESS of which third party plugin is required to play the sound - IT JUST LOADS AND PLAYS!
    Maybe I'm in the minority but I think of a sound I want first, NOT which instrument I should load and then browse through - the latter is kind of backwards for me.
    I really think that we users should pressure Apple and plugin developers to provide Logic (and indeed other DAWs) presets with ALL of their products because the amount of effort on their part is minimal compared with countless end-users doing this task manually over and over. The current situation is ridiculous.
    DAWs are incredibly powerful these days but the lack of a plugin preset/sound library definition standard is quite crippling to work flow.
    I mean if there were a STANDARD LIBRARY DEFINITION such as with Native Instrument libraries or Apple loops where sounds are defined universally and supplied as such in a common preset it would revolutionise sound discovery/selection within DAWs.
    Kind of like a document management system that applies to ALL plugins, by ALL developers and the installer for a plugin would then add all its presets to the management system/common library"

    Can you give me an example of a plugin that doesn't work with the Logic save preset function?
    Sure, I could give you lists of plugins for each of those particular scenarios I addressed.
    In that specific case, for one example, Spectrasonics instruments for a few years did not support the hosts' save/recall settings function (at least in Logic), and when contacting them and asking why Stylus RMX could not recall settings saved via Logic's preset system I was given the explanation that it wasn't supported for technical reasons.Basically, it only save/recalled a small handful of settings, the rest were lost, meaning it was impossible for quite some time to use the Logic's save/load settings feature to save user presets, you had to use the plugin's own internal save features. (Yes, the instrument's state was saved in the song, but *wasn't* able to be saved via the preset handling, for technical reasons).
    A year or so later, and later Logic versions, they finally got round to making it work as the varioous parts of the host and instruments were upgraded to handle larger data requirements. Spectrasonics instruments are examples of instruments with very specific, custom browser features, many of which you lose if you save data using Logic's functionality - not to mention the effort of saving, naming and organising 8000+ patches per instrument. Plus you have many levels of data - you often load a loop into a part, and a part into a group of parts, and they are different types of data. The hosts save/load feature only saves the state of the plugin - it can't be used to load Loop 14 into part 2, for example. It's the whole plugin, or nothing. More workarounds in terms of how you organise your loading/saving of different types of data.
    There are other instruments too, and ones I've beta tested where I've got into the technical details and had to have the preset format changed or simplified because hosts had difficulties storing the data correctly. It's quite a complex thing, in the main, and different instruments implentation of preset handling mean that the whole thing is full of workarounds, compromises, or plain failure to use the feature completely.
    Other instruments, such as Minimonsta, lose functionality when saving via the host - for example, you only get the meta patches and patch morphing functions when saving via the plugin's own file format, and that stuff doesn't happen when saving via the host.
    I could go on and on about this - every develop has different requirements and they mostly all either do it very basically and rely on the host, or bypass the hosts save/load functionality and implement their own which they can be in control of and that will work across hosts and across platforms. For instance, there is little point having a beautifully organised Oddity library if all those sounds are now unavailable to me if I choose to work in Live...
    That's why the whole preset thing is a complicated mess and isn't liable to be sorted soon.
    There is a developer over on the PC trying to make a system to unify this stuff between plugins - it's PC only right now, and I forget the details this second, but it's acknowledgement that people recognise this whole thing is a mess and looking at ways to improve the situation.
    Sid Merrett wrote:
    I hadn't spotted that - thanks. You can't use the Logic Library window to search for Plugin Settings, only Channel Strip Settings.
    You *can* use it to search for plugin presets, but only within the context of a single plugin. Ie, if I select the ES2, I can see, and search, the ES2 plugin settings. But often I want "a bass sound", I don't necessarily know that I was an "ES2 bass sound", or a "Minimonsta bass sound" or whatever.
    The point being, I just want a sound that will work, and I don't know where it will come from. Forcing me to choose and instrument first can be counter productive. How many times have you needed a sound, and you go "Ok, there might be something in pluginX that'll work?" - you load up pluginX, flip through the sounds, don't find anything useful, then go "Ok, let's try pluginY", no... pluginZ etc etc
    I miss Soundiver in many ways. *Ideally*, I'd like one central method of storing my presets which will work cross-plugin, cross-host, cross-format and cross-platform that is a standard that all developers and hosts support, and that offers the main core features that developers need, from simple, single patches with names, up to full meta data, cataloging, organising, author and notes tagging and so on. You can still give the users a choice to use the individual plugin and individual plugin's gui for patch selection, but you can get far more standardised if you want, with the advantages that gives - and you don't have to export patches into the system, as it's developer supported, all presets for your instruments would be instantly available in the library, just as they are in the instrument directly.
    But it's difficult to get developers to agree on much, these days - the most likely thing to happen is someone somewhere creates a cross-platform standard for this that gains momentum and that developers and hosts want, or *need* to support.

  • RED Workflow questions with Mac Pro (including third party plugins)

    Hello all,
    I’ve been searching many forums for the better part of a day trying to get some workflow questions sorted. I’m experiencing (very) slow export times, and mediocre playback for a machine that should be screaming fast.
    Here is what I’m working with:
    2014 Mac Pro
    -2.7 GHz 12-core intel xeon E5
    -64GB Ram
    -Dual AMD FirePro D700 6GB
    -1TB Flash Storage
    Editing all footage off 96TB Raid 6 mini-sas server (getting about 1100mbs read/write rate according to AJA system test) which is faster than any Thunderbolt/TB2 drive array I have.
    Media I work with is footage from the RED Epic (normally 5K) as well as DSLR footage from the 5d.
    Software:
    -PrPro CC 2014 (8.1)
    -Magic Bullet Looks 2.5.2
    My question(s) pertains to RED post-pro workflow in combination with third party plug-ins and the different approaches to make it more efficient.
    Right now, majority of the clients need a 1080p HD master, and they are generally anywhere from 2-8 minutes (usually). So my sequence settings are as follows:
    Video:
    Editing Mode: RED Cinema
    Size: 1920 x 1080
    Audio: 48Hz
    Video Previews
    Preview File Format: I-Frame Only MPEG
    Codec: MPEG I-Frame
    1920x1080
    Maximum Bit Depth unchecked
    Maximum Render Quality unchecked
    Composite in Linear Color checked
    Export Settings
    H.264
    1920x1080
    VBR 1 pass
    Target Bitrate 12mbs
    Max bitrate 12mbs
    Maximum render quality/depth/previews unchecked
    Issues I have:
    -Playback is fine at 1/2 or even full, but once effects (especially magic bullet looks) start to go on the clips, it’s very choppy and has difficult playback at 1/4
    -Export times (especially with magic bullet looks) will take the better part of 1-4 hours for a video that is 3-6 minutes long. This doesn’t seem like it should be the case for a maxed out MacPro
    So my questions are:
    Do these seem like the right sequence/export settings for mastering at 1080p? If not, what would you suggest?
    Would using offline editing help at all?
    Do you place your effects on adjustment layers?
    Is there anyway to improve export settings when using an array of filters?
    Have you stopped using third party plugins for their inefficiency in unreliability and switched to more integrated applications like SpeedGrade?
    Is there any other tweaks that you would suggest for RED workflow with PrPro?
    Should I consider switching to FCPX or (besides the iMovie-likeness) does it carry problems of its own?

    The biggest issue is that most people have is that updating OS X causes certain folders to be set to Read Only. See this blog post: Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later).

    It's a nice base system. How about an additional speedy disk for media cache files. You also did not mention which version of OS X you are running.

    The Red Giant website does not indicate that this software is yet updated to work with Premiere Pro CC 2014.1 (8.1). Proceed with caution here.

    I would not use this plug-in until you get the OK from the manufacturer.

    Again, I suspect your plug-in.
    Keep in mind that exports are largely CPU based but you can make sure that GPU acceleration is enabled for AME at the bottom of the Queue panel.

    It's OK.

    No need when you should be able to edit natively. Relinking might also be an issue.
    thisisironclad wrote:

    That's one way you can do it with the benefit of being more organized.
    thisisironclad wrote:

    I do. Of course, that's a preference.

    Try the following:
    Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
    Update any GPU drivers
    Trash preferences
    Ensure Adobe preference files are set to read/write(Hopefully you checked this out already)
    Delete media cache
    Remove plug-ins
    If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
    Repair permissions
    Disconnect any third party hardware
    If you have a CUDA GPU, ensure that the Mercury Playback Engine is set to CUDA, not OpenCLYou have AMD GPUs.
    Disable App Nap
    Reboot

    I really shouldn't answer that question.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to reinstall a corrupt, third-party plugin?

    This is a multi-level issue.
    After purchasing and installing Recosoft PDF2ID (a very useful and clever plugin that allows a user to open PDFs right into InDesign), I noticed that InDesign would hang on Quit. Becasue this hang (and my subsequent force-quite maneuvers) became the norm, I decided to disable PDF2ID, the one third party plugin I had added to ID, using the "Adobe Exchange Manager".
    After I did that, "magically", ID resumed it's normal quit process; in other words, no more hanging but just a simple, happy and definitely terminal Quit.
    I contacted Recosoft and they replied " We have tens of thousands of PDF2ID installations (amongst various users) and this is a first". So, in other words, I should not have an issue myself because other users do not. That's logical, right?
    I then decided to enable PDF2ID once more just so I could obtain some sort of crash log on Quit; something I could send Recosoft for them to examine and possibly find the problem.
    When I did enable the plugin again (Exchange screen below, last item enabled), I got a "Startup Alert" -also attached.
    Only one time, the plugin loaded and, as expected, ID hang on Quit.
    After that I could not get the plugin to load again (but got more "Startup Alerts").
    I emailed Recosoft again and send them the Force-Quit log. they told me that they saw no issues and, furthermore, they added "You should contact the Adobe Exchange store to download it and install it again.".
    I did.
    After spending 2 useless hours with Adobe on the phone, they told me (in an email I asked them to send me) that "The plugin is from Recosoft & not from Adobe, we have helped you [not true at all] with the installation & activation of the plugin but we cannot help you with the usage of the plugin." I never asked them to help me with the usage of the plugin. I asked them to help me reinstall a plugin that I had purchased through Adobe Exchange, a function that apparently Exchange cannot perform.
    So, I purchased a plugin using Adobe Exchange. The plugin somehow went bad and impairs the normal functioning (quit, to be precise) of InDesign. Recosoft won't help because I bought their plugin through Adobe Exchange and Adobe won't help either (but is happy to send me an email with a lie embedded in it) because it is not their plugin ... Who should I call now? Apple because I'm using a Mac? The manufacturer of the chair where I sit while I work?
    Maybe they are the ones who are supposed to help me get a replacement plugin installed. You tell me.
    Thank you.

    Thanks for the condescending advice. I did contact the vendor first. That's obvious, a no-brainer. Their (Recosoft's) reply was: "... contact the Adobe Exchange store to download it and install it again." Later they explained that because the plugin was acquired through Adobe Exchange and because they only sell that PDF2ID Lite version through Adobe Exchange, I had to ask you for assistance.
    In short, although they indeed build and provide the plugin, it is Adobe Exchange the engine that does the work to download, enable and/or disable a plugin. Exchange does nothing, however, to replace a bad plugin; there is no setting or button or whatever to re-download from source, replace a bad file and reinstall. The only options are enable and disable plugins OR purchase a plugin again. The latter is not a solution, really.
    What's interesting to me (other than this thing is still an exercise on pointing fingers) is that when a third party plugin to be used with an Adobe tool is added to your workflow it immediately acquires an Adobe-designed icon, a reflection of Adobe's brand. In general, one does not want to stamp a product with one's own brand unless one is ready to take some sort or responsibility for that product. Adobe appears not follow that logic though. You add one of your branded icons to a product that (it is obvious to me) you take zero responsibility for, one that I can't expect Adobe to support ...

  • Interface Problems in Yosemite

    Problem shows up when using software other than the native OS X apps.
    If I attempt to close a window behind the app that has focus by clicking the red x part of the semaphore buttons (top left on every window) it will not work unless I change focus to that app by clicking the bar at the top.
    As an example if I'm using Byword to view a document while composing an email in Airmail once I finished and move on to viewing, say a receipt, in Airmail and want to make a copy of that receipt and place it on the desktop. I'm done with Byword and it is covering the desktop so why not close it and get it out of the way. I move the mouse pointer over the red X part of the semaphore buttons and click, nothing happens. I have to bring Byword into focus by clicking the title bar, then click the red x to finally close the window. If the app below Airmail happened to be Safari the red X works properly.
    On my Mac Mini using Yosemite this works properly for all apps.
    This is only a slight problem but I have been having the odd quirky interface problems for the past while and I'm worried that something has gone south and these may end up adding together to make a very large problem.  Initially I had problems with PopClip which seemed to be screwing around with the interface buttons in Rapidweaver 6. I removed the app to clear that problem using AppDelete.
    While trying to diagnose this problem I have removed all the auto login apps that I can and rebooted several times to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • How to develop dll towards VB and Delphi for vi's of a third-part usb device

    Hello, dear lv'ers:
    Recently i am evolved in a project where i want to reuse my developed ac measurement modules (certainly in .vi format) in target computers. The related information has been collected below:
    0) Develope machine: win7, lv2010 sp1 development suite bought last year, third-part usb devices (Rigol DG1022 for instance, recognized in MAX as USB0::0x0957::0x0407::MY44012174::INSTR), ac measurement vi's with VISA function calling.
    1) Target computer A: MultiVu for squid vsm from QD(quantum design) bought in 2009, allowing third-part extension script written in visual basic .bas format. MAX was installed by QD, but our third-part usb devices could unfortunately not be recognized and assigned a visa resource name.
    2) Target computer B: MultiVu for squid-xl from QD bought 2007, allowing third-part extension script writen in Delphi .dpr format. Its MAX has the same problem.
    i have got familiar with extending such two MultiVu's for dc measurement based on Keithley 2400 & 2182, successfully using VB and Delphi, respectively.  Such dc module has nothing to do with labview and has already installed with GPIB interface in MAX.
    i have already overviewed some related posts here for dll building for VB and Delphi, and i could build my hellow-world dll for vb(simply following reversstring one in ni knowledgebase). However, at the moment, my main concerning is how to build dll's installation package for our two target computers, so that they can use the third-part usb devices as in my development machine?
    Your answers, direct or indirectly, would be quite appreciated.
    Faithfully

    Probably, i have just got a solution for this problem.
    The way seems  quite simple: what i need to do, before importing dll or exe files, is installing a VISA  4.0 (http://download.ni.com/support/softlib/visa/NI-VISA/4.0/win32/visa400full.exe) in target computers, which can communicate fine with our devices.
    Afterwards, you know, everthing goes ok as does in the development computer.
    When i got further problems, i shall return here. :-).

  • Easy browsing the third-party plugin presets?

    In Logic 7 there's nice instruments and nice presets.
    But the best part is that you can use keys for previous/next setting.
    Thatway it's easy to find the right sound.
    Third-party plugins have different ways to browse the presets.
    (every plug is different ****)
    But I hate to use the mouse...
    So is there a way to browse the presets in the same way for all the plugins??
    Thanx (solving this would spare me some years of my life)

    Hello, I'm not a very accomplished JavaScripter, but have found that you can access some InMath at least in CS3. I only needed to be able to refresh the InMath styles from a script.
    If you run this script...
    app.menuActions.everyItem().name;
    it will return the names of all the available menu actions. The list is quite long, but it includes some of the InMath actions. At least the ones you can assign keyboard shortcuts to. In my case, I needed to refresh the InMath styles from a script. So I found the name of the InMath menu action that was returned from the above script (Refresh All InMath Expressions) and was able to make a script that refreshed the styles like this.
    app.menuActions.itemByName("Refresh All InMath Expressions").invoke();
    However, I'm trying to figure out how to do this in CS2 because my client is still using CS2 and can't find the CS2 version of menuActions.
    I think I read your other post about the find/change fillColor bug. I was stuck in the same place and now have it working thanks to the posted help. I was working on a script that would fix fractions based on their colors.
    Hope this helps.

  • I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out".  No probs with old computer, just the new one.  I'm onto my third new computer - same problem.  Any suggestions please?

    I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs using the new computer, there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out" during play back, similar to a small scratch on a vinyl record.  Although when I play the same song over again, the "miss" occurs in a different location during the song.  No probs with old computer, just the new one.  I'm onto my third new computer - same problem.  Any suggestions please?

    You don't say which version of iTunes you are using, but the symptoms you describe have been encountered by some users with the 64-bit version of iTunes 12.1.
    There is an alternative version for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
    iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
    that seems to address the most of the playback issues that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version of 12.1.0.77 - including problems with Bluetooth speakers where either sound is degraded or completely absent.  The alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer.  The "for older video cards" label appears to be something of a misnomer as some people have reported that this corrects problems found on current / high-spec systems.
    Some users have reported that after installing this alternative version it is necessary to adjust the "Play audio using" selection (normally to "Direct Sound" rather than "Windows Audio Session", though this may vary based on your audio hardware/drivers) in Edit > Preferences > Playback to restore glitch-free audio (one part of the reported symptoms is that the "Direct Sound" choice isn't available, usually in Windows 8).  It may also be necessary to ensure that your Bluetooth speakers are active and selected as the default audio device before you run iTunes.
    If this doesn't address the issue, you may want to think about reverting to iTunes 12.0 - see Turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for steps needed to completely remove all installed iTunes components, and for links to the 12.0 installers.

  • Logic Ex7 motu896 & Lacie drive ?problems!

    I just picked up an 896, all works fine but i can't get it to record to my Lacie drive (250G). The sound is messed up, Glich and pops and stuff and then i get an Error message "Error while trying to sync audio and midi" Logic records fine
    to my G4 hard drive. Also playback of already recorded files from the lacie drive
    is the same way! Hard Time!!!???

    Hi,
    There are several possibilities:
    1.The drive is not formatted correctly.Chck to see the drive has Mac OS Extended Journaled formatting,as this is the recommended format.
    2.The order in which the audio interface and the LaCie drive can be changed.Try reversing the order in which the audio interface and the drive are connected to the computer.This sometimes works,for no apparent reason.
    3.Are the pops and glitches on the recording themselves? Do you see them in the audio files,or are they occurring during playback only? Please check and audio file to verify which is occurring.
    If the recordings themselves (the audio files) do not display the glitches and pops,then most likely it is an audio interface problem.Perhaps the drivers are not current,or the firmware needs to be updated.Check with Motu for this.
    If the recordings ARE infested with the glitches,then it could be a faulty hard drive.Please talk to LaCie abouth this,to get a replacement drive.
    I hope this helps you out,
    Cheers

  • 16.0.3: custom cursor for third party plugin missing

    We are using a third party plugin which has its own cursor (probably 16x16 png), and after upgrade to AI 16.0.3 on Mac OS 10.8, iMac, the custom cursor just gone, currently it ues system cursor (a black arrow).
    Any detailed info about this upgrade may cause the problem?

    So, here's what happened. In the 16.0.3/16.2 update, Adobe broke sAIUser->SetCursor(). Any plug-in that was using this call to display cursors will no longer be able to change their cursors on Mac. Cursors did not break on Windows. There are two options for developers; either change to platform cursors or wait for Adobe to issue a fix (I do not know, however, if one is planned). Hot Door has already changed to platform cursors and will be issuing an update later this week. There is a discussion on StackOverflow for those interested in the programming solution.

  • Apps Secretly Sharing Personal Data With Third Parties--

    just read this article on the huffingtonpost.com
    how can i tell who is obtaining persoanl data without telling me ?
    are there supposed to be safeguards against this ?
    *what can i do to prevent this ?*
    *Apps Secretly Sharing Personal Data With Third Parties--Without Telling You*
    JORDAN ROBERTSON | 07/28/10 10:40 PM | AP
    LAS VEGAS — Your smart phone applications are watching you – much more closely than you might like.
    Lookout Inc., a mobile-phone security firm, scanned nearly 300,000 free applications for Apple Inc.'s iPhone and phones built around Google Inc.'s Android software. It found that many of them secretly pull sensitive data off users' phones and ship them off to third parties without notification.
    That's a major concern that has been bubbling up in privacy and security circles.
    The data can include full details about users' contacts, their pictures, text messages and Internet and search histories. The third parties can include advertisers and companies that analyze data on users.
    The information is used by companies to target ads and learn more about their users. The danger, though, is that the data become vulnerable to hacking and use in identity theft if the third party isn't careful about securing the information.
    Lookout reported its findings this week in conjunction with the Black Hat computer security conference in Las Vegas.
    Lookout found that nearly a quarter of the iPhone apps and almost half the Android apps contained software code that contained those capabilities.
    The code had been written by the third parties and inserted into the applications by the developers, usually for a specific purpose, such as allowing the applications to run ads. But the code winds up forcing the application to collect more data on users than even the developers may realize, Lookout executives said.
    "We found that not only users, but developers as well, don't know what's happening in their apps, even in their own apps, which is fascinating," said John Hering, CEO of the San Francisco-based Lookout.
    Part of the problem is smart phones don't alert users to all the different types of data the applications running on them are collecting. IPhones only alert users when applications want to use their locations.
    And while Android phones offer robust warnings when applications are first installed, many people breeze through them for the gratification of using the apps quickly. Google said it tries to limit users' risk with the warnings but consistently advises users to only install apps they trust.
    Apple didn't respond to a request for comment on Lookout's research.

    The best way to handle this, depending on the app, is to turn off things like sharing on the world wide boards. (This can often be done in settings, although you may have to do so in app.)
    Also--and this may sound a bit lame--choose your apps (especially free ones) carefully. There are a whole range of games that all track certain info bits. I have a few of those, but have have turned off that part of it.
    Finally...the same things go for apps as with any program for your computer: use common sense.
