Logic 9.1.3: automation changes between Macs

Hi all,
I had a quick search on various forums to see if anyone else has experienced this problem but I've drawn a blank so far.
The scenario is I have Logic 9.1.3 on my Mac Pro (early 2009 quad-core) and MacBook Pro (2010 2.66 i7) which are both running OS X 10.6.6. I am working on a dance track which requires automation of various parameters to be tick accurate for builds and drops.
The problem is this: I work on the track on the Mac Pro in the studio, getting the automation timing just right. I then typically spend a couple of days away working on the track on the laptop.
When I play back the track on the laptop the automation timing is messed up - it comes in too late (after the drop, for example). The CPU / disk usage isn't spiking overall or on any given CPU core. The playback buffer settings don't make a difference to this issue but I leave them set to large.
Has anyone else experienced this issue please? It's very frustrating to have to keep nudging multiple automation nodes every time I switch from desktop to laptop!
Thanks,
James
P.S. As an aside - during playback on either Mac, the position of the playhead when the tune drops does not accurately reflect the level of automation happening in the track - again, anyone else seen / heard this?

On both computers, go to Preferences > Audio > General and set *Sample Accurate Automation* to *Volume, Pan, Sends, Plug-In Parameters*.

How can i change when i start the mac book pro, between mac and win?

when i start the mac book pro, between mac and win?

If you want to set which OS your system boots into (provided Windows is installed using BootCamp and not a virtualization option such as Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox), just hold the "Option" key down when you turn your computer on. Continue to hold the key down until you see the options for booting into the OS of your choice. Just click on the arrow under the one you wish (tap to click won't work here if you have it enabled... you'll need to physically click the trackpad). If you want to change which OS your system normally boots into, just go into System Preferences in OS X and select "Starup Disk". Whichever OS you select here will be the OS your system will automatically boot into.

Change between graphic cards - mac crashes

Hi Apple community,
since now two weeks I have a new MacBook Pro. It is my first mac and it is very amazing.
However since the first day I have a problem for which I do not find an answer yet.
As every new MacBook Pro - my MBP do have two graphic cards. In the system preferneces there is the option to switch between them (better battery life or higher performance). When I try to change between these two options I get the - you have to log out - text. Till here everything is fine.
Now when the system logs off and in again my MacOs crashes and and I do have to press the on/off switch menu for few second, reboot my system and even then the system can get bck to normal mode, I have to press the on/off switch once again and only then I can run my Mac again.
Is this normal and if not.... how can this problem be solved
Thanks for your help

Changing graphics cards should not cause a system crash. I'd recommend a call to AppleCare. There's a Contact Us link at the bottom right of this page.

DM3.0 EA2: Filter engineering changes between logical and relational model

Hi,
when I am engineering changes between logial and relational model there are some issues at filter handling for me:
- When the filter "Show Modified Objects" is activated, the filter works only on the first level, e.g. on Entity level. On attribute level all attributes are displayed, not only the attributes which have really been modified. It is possible, to show on every level only the really modified objects?
- I think, selecting a Filter condition is circuitous. All filter conditions except "Show All Objects" keeps activated when I choose another condition. So I have to deactivate "Show Deleted Objects" when I want to see only the modified objects. It is possible to choose another control element for filtering, e.g. disjunctive radio buttons?
I am running Data Modeler on Windows XP with german localization and the JDK 1.6.0_11 from Oracle SQL Developer.

I am looking for a fool-proof way to share files between Mac 10.6 and Win 7

I need to share files BOTH WAYS between Mac OS 10.6 (latest rev - 10.6.3 at the time of this post) and Windows 7 Premium. Both computers are on a private network and both are on the same workgroup.
I followed this tutorial:
http://macs.about.com/od/filesharing/ss/file-sharing-with-snow-leopard-win7.htm
and I got part of the way there. This tutorial shows me how to set up sharing using the "Sharing" pref pane. I set up a few folders for sharing to specific users (me) from the PC. I set permissions properly, and enabled SMB. Everything was by the book (I have shared between XP and older macs in the past, this is not totally new to me).
For some reason, my Win 7 box is only able to see my public folder. I can set that folder (using the sharing panel in OSX) to read and write, so I can move files to and from it in Win7, but none of the other folders I shared on my Mac are available in Win7.
I am accessing my shares in Win7 like this:
\\192.168.123.130\Desktop
that's my Mac's static IP and then the Desktop is one of my shared folders on the Mac.
When I type that, I get an error in Win7 that says that folder is not accessible, and that I may not have permission. I am not prompted for a username/password at any point in the process.
the only way I am able to access the Mac's public folder is because I type "\\192.168.123.130" in Windows 7 and I am presented with a list of shared printers on my Mac and then the public folder. My other Mac shares are not listed there.
What am I doing wrong?
Oh, one more thing. Is there a good tutorial anywhere for sharing Win7 folders to my Mac? All the ones I have found are not working.
God, I really hate Windows sometimes.
Thanks
-----------S

LAN Manager authentication level was already set to "Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated" according to a web tutorial. I changed it to the option you recommended above.
Still, only the public folder is visible.
By the way - this is a brand new install of Windows 7. Almost nothing has been altered from its stock just-installed state.
It is connected to my Mac via a cat-6 ethernet cable which is plugged into my Mac Pro's second ethernet port. I did this because the PC is a Maya workstation, and I do not want to slow it down by installing all of our corporation's IT-required software that slows our systems down. It is not connected to the open internet in any way - just file sharing to my Mac.
My Mac is 192.168.123.130, the Win7 box is 192.168.123.132. Both have a subnet of 255.255.255.0 and a gateway of 192.168.123.130. I am UNABLE to ping the PC from the Mac. I am ABLE to ping the Mac from the PC.

Share filing between Mac and Windows Vista

Hello,
I am trying to file share my iBook and Vista.
On my I book under Finder >>>Network>> I see my computer name "Computer-PC" but the icon is grayed out.
When I click on it it says:
The Alias "Computer-PC" Could not opened, because the original item cannot be found. Then it gives me 3 choices
Delete Alias, Fix Alias , OK
I hit OK it does nothing
I hit Fix Alias, Then it ask me to choose an item to open. I dont know what to open????
I do not want to Delete Alias.
Also I tried to connect Vista and it does see the IBook on the network, but then when I try to connect It asks for the user name and password of my iBook
I verified this by reading the support docs on the Apple website.
System Preference >>>Systems >>>Accounts >> verified and changed password.
Still no luck. Can someone give me some advice? Thanks!!

There are more than a few threads on the topic across the web; so I guess a search
would be in order and some sorting of results to enable a wise choice from them.
There's also the Apple Help built into OS X and some ideas present themselves.
Firewall changes would probably be necessary, and the Sharing (system preference)
panel has some access settings for some of this sort of thing.
(The closest I have been to sharing between a Windows machine and a Mac, is when
I let a few Windows machines mistakenly given to me to troubleshoot & repair, were
brought into my space and they temporarily shared a workbench. I found out what
was wrong with them (outside of the poor quality & shabby OS) -- and out they went!)

Official answer
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303572#faq1
Why is the time different between Mac OS X and Windows XP on my computer?
The Windows XP and Mac OS X operating systems handle your computer's date and time information differently, so the date and time may be different when you switch operating systems. For best results, use a network time server and resync the date and time whenever you switch operating systems. In Mac OS X, use the “Set date & time automatically” option in the Date & Time preferences. In Windows XP, click the Update Now button in the “Date and Time Properties” control panel.
Nice solution
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2378497#2378497
"I found a better solution to this whole thing. The problem with the Windows clock being off is because the hardware clock (the one on your actual motherboard) is being set to "Universal" time, or GMT, when you shut down your MacOS bootup. When you boot Windows, Windows assumes your clock is set to your local timezone because that's what Windows does by default. This explains why the people who set their MacOS clock to GMT got the right time in Windows... If the hardware clock is being set to "GMT," when it's actually the local time, Windows will pick this setting up as local time as it did before.
To fix this, you need to add a key to your Windows system registry to tell Windows that your hardware clock will always be GMT.
* WARNING: Editing your registry improperly can render your Windows installation inoperable. Proceed VERY carefully. I am not responsible if you mess something up. *
The short solution for people who know how to edit the registry:
A DWORD key called HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation\RealTimeIsUniversal needs to have the value of "1"
The step-by-step solution is as follows:
1. Boot Windows
2. Click Start --> Run and type regedit. Click OK
3. The Windows Registry Editor should pop up. Navigate within the explorer to:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation
4. Click on the TimeZoneInformation "folder" from the navigation pane if you haven't already done so.
5. This assumes the correct key doesn't exist. If it does, you will just change the existing key's value: Right click on the white space within the folder (If you don't have a right mouse button, you may need to download a program called applemouse to emulate the "control-click" of the apple 1-button mouse). Select new --> DWORD Value. Title the key "RealTimeIsUniversal" (No quotes). Set the value to "1" (No quotes again). Hexidecimal should be fine.
6. Either reboot and set the clock in MacOS or set the clock in Windows. You should now be able to reboot into either OS and have a correct clock."

RSA1 error Logical system name has been changed for this system

Hello All,
Earlier the RSA1 was activated for client 300 on our crm 5.2. after that we changed the client to 500 using SE16 -> Type table RSADMINA / Check Colum BWMANDT -> 500.
But now when we login to client 500 and execute RSA1 it is showing
Logical system name has been changed for this system"
In scc4 we have not made any changes. Can you tell what should be done ? in the pop up it is showing following steps
Change the name of the logical system (table T000) for client back to SIDCLNT300. This enables you to continue working with the system.
If you really want to change the logical name, than you can, if and when you:
change the system name back to SIDCLNT300,
delete all existing connections between this system and other systems,
delete all transfer structures that still exist, and
do not use ALE or Workflow.
Guys do you know how to fix this ? .
Also do you know Assignment of Source System to Source System ID (table RSSOURSYSTEM) using RSA1 ?
Edited by: Sahad K on Mar 17, 2008 10:55 AM

Hello Hari,
Both the options you said cannot be used
since the logical system SIDCLNT300 is used by client 300 and it cannot be given to client 500. Also there already exist a logical system SIDCLNT500 which is assigned to client 500.
I found out the issue. In the table RSBASIDOC the logical system name that can use rsa1( bw client )is set as SIDCLNT300). Only if we delete that entry and set it to SIDCLNT500 ( 500) we can use it on client 500.
The solution is specified in /message/3284842#3284842 [original link is broken]
Let me try the solution 2 and inform you.
Solution 2:
You cannot delete the source system. Two cases have to be distinguished:
The source system still exists.
Switch to Transaction SM59. Find the destination which has the same name as the logical system of the source system from field SLOGSYS in table RSBASIDOC (see above).
Such a destination does not exist in Transaction SM59. In this case, you have to create the destination to the source system. Name the destination equal the entry in SLOGSYS from above. Then return to the Administrator Workbench and repeat the deletion.
The entry exists but a remote login is not possible. Correct the communication parameters.
Everything works. Change to Transaction SE37, function module RSAR_LOGICAL_SYSTEM_DELETE, Sngl. test. Parameter I_LOGSYS = <log. name of the source system>, I_FORCE_DELETE = 'X'.
The source system no longer exists or was replaced with another source system with the same IP address.
Proceed as described in the first case but make sure, that the field 'Target host' contains a not existing server in the maintenance screen of the destination (Transaction SM59). If necessary, change an existing entry. Later when you delete, the system asks you whether you want to delete, although the source system is not available. Select 'Ignore'.
Incase you have any idea other than this please let me know how to edit the RSBASIDOC table and change the entry to client 500.

Transferring keyboard shortcuts between Mac and Windows

I need to migrate users from Mac (CS 5.5) to Windows 7 (CS 6). I have tried to transfer a user's custom keyboard shortcut set by copying the .indk file to the appropriate folder on the PC, and although it shows up in the list, when I try to select the set I get an error saying it is in the wrong format or the file could be damaged. Is there a way of transferring keyboard shortcuts between Mac and Windows?

Shortcut sets seem to be human-readable text files, so you could try making a copy and doing some editing, changing cmd to ctrl and opt to alt, and change the platform value in the first line to "win" though I can't make any promise it will work.
There are also some known problems trying to migrate legacy sets into newer versions of ID since CS5, I think.

Big Colour and detail changes between Original Nikon RAW files and the images created on the Preview page!

Big Colour and detail changes between Original Nikon RAW files and the images created on the Preview page! Yes there are distinct visual changes when I preview my Nikon NEF RAW Files.Please note I do not use iPhoto at all.
If you view it as a contact sheet straight from the original folder there are no alterations but the moment you double click and want to 'Preview' it, this new preview page introduces very noticeable distortions : lighter shading goes missing and colour goes darker e.g orange turns red and mid blue goes deep blue! Alarmingly the little column on the left of the preview page showing the collection shows the original file colours and then after a few seconds show the new distorted image...you can see this visible change and it takes place after a few seconds once you double click! Also if you use Apple's 'Cover Flow' to preview, this function will replace your original RAW file with the new 'altered preview' image!
I have raised this with Apple but they have yet to reply...has anyone ever experienced this? I have used my Mac book for 18months only noticed it about 5 days ago!
I went to Apple store and we tried it in other laptops and Macs and it happened to all of them so we think this is a software issue and not down to the laptop.
Any help is much appreciated!

Automation changes in Excel2013

Hi, we have an old VB6 application that performs Excel automation and wich always worked fine, whatever the OS (from XP up to W8, 32 or 64 bits) and whatever the Excel version (from 97 up to 2010).
Recently, we have bought Excel 2013 and now, Excel RAM usage grows each time a file is opened/closed.
Just looping on opening/closing an empty worksheet, after one night, Excel RAM usage can grow up to 1 GB...
So, what appened on automation mechanisms between 2013 and 2013 versions.
How could we solve this issue (our software needs to run for more than 1000 hours...)
Thanks in advance,
Best regards.

I've launched the example code from Excel itself (VBA macro in an xlsm workbook), it runs since 2 hours now, 6200 iterations, it takes now approximatively 4 secondes to open/close an empty file and RAM usage is about 280Mb and does not stops growing (whereas
it started around 50Mb and was quite fast) ...
And yes, the customer application has to run 24/7 for a month and even more ... But, it does not opens billions of files, it has a maximum of 3 files opened simultenaously and perdiodicaly generates reports opening a template file (xltx), exporting data
into it and saving it in the right place. And, Excel accesses are not so frequents, the most significant part of applications is about communication with source and measurements devices (We're doing electronic applications, mostly burn-in application which
consist in stress steps followed by characterization steps and then report generation and loop again until the tested component dies).
The open/close example is just the simplest one I've found which produces the issue but it does not have anything to do with the actual applications. (And in our company we use it only to calibrate our devices, which is performed in less than 10 minutes
so we hadn't seen this issue until a customer who makes long-time tests changed his computer and bought Excel2013).
Moreover, in the customer application, it crashes before having generated a single report, so there are other methods than open/close that also causes Excel issues. (I thought that if I could explain the open/close issue, I could explain everything ...)
Restarting Excel periodically is indeed the only work around I can figure but it's a little bit tricky to do because, our application just interprets a script from which the Excel commands are done. Usually we do not create the script neither the excel files,
it's the custommer who creates them. So, it's is hard to develop something "robust" in any case, the safer way would be to create a new mnemonic as "RestartExcel" and explain to the customer that he has to periodically call this method
to purge Excel ... And it's up to him to manage Excel memory leaks ...
It is not "professionnal" ... but maybe it will end like this !
Of course, I don't want Excel to be "stupid-proof", the customer has to test its application and debug it if it causes excel errors ...
Peter thornton, you're so kind to me ! If I could be sure this issue were not caused by the environment and that you also produces it on your W7 - 32bits machine it would be easier then to pick a work around solution. I can't refuse your offer :)
And thanks also Fai Xue for not leaving us alone, your proposals are really welcome !

Transferring photo album between Macs

I've created a photo book on my husbands mac (iMac G5), and wish to move it to mine (G4 Powerbook) in order to finish working on it. I currently have the correct album, but can't figure out how to transfer the actual book file to my mac.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Hi Design&Conquer,
There is no way easy way to transfer a book between Macs. The reason is because the book info is in a data file, there is no hard copy of it in the Finder. You can copy your entire iPhoto Library folder to your PB and open it on the PB and finish working on your book there. You can also follow the next suggestion from Old Toad on backing up the book, which will give you a library with just the images from the book and the data files, which you can then copy over to your PB and work on it there.
You would use the Option launch to navigate to the book library and open it. You also might have to change the permissions of the iPhoto Library folder to you. Instructions for both will follow after Old Toads info:
Backing up an iPhoto book
This is a method that was suggested by Old Toad, our iPhoto forums guru:
Close iPhoto
-If you have enough room on your hard drive duplicate the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder by highlighting it and hitting Command D.
-Launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed until you see the message window. Choose to open another library and navigate to the duplicate library and highlight it and click "open"
-Now delete all photos that are not in your book or that you are not planning to use in your book. Empty iPhoto's trash often so as to to have iPhoto choke on too many images to delete.
-Once you have just the photos you want to use in the book and everything is running fine, close that library.
-Each time before you open the book library you might want to duplicate that library in the Finder to have a safe copy to use if the book library crashes on you and you lose the work on your book.
In the future, you can File>export all the photos you want to use in the next book to a folder on the desktop.
Create a new book library by launching iPhoto with the Option key depressed and choosing to create a new library. Name the library after the book you are going to make.
Follow the same procedure above to make duplicate copies of the book library before you do any major work on the book.
When you launch iPhoto holding down the Option key this is the window you will get.
Create a new library or choose a library to open
Choose to create a new library if that is what you want to do, or choose a library to open by clicking the "choose" button.
If you click the "create library" iPhoto will open with a brand new library for you to import images to. If you click "choose" then you will get this window.
Open library
Navigate to where the library is on your computer, highlight it, then clcik the "open" button.
Get info on the iPhoto Library folder

Transfer between macs

Just upgraded my mac just as I was about to transfer my data form my old computer. But as I restarted the older machine to begin the transfer it failed. I believe that the logic board has failed in my older mac (by using the ambient lights in the older mac to diagnose the problem). I know that with PC you can remove the hard drive put it in a 3.5 caddy/ external enclosure and transfer the info. Can I do the same thing on the mac? Also can I drag across my itunes folder. I can't transfer my purchases for, my ipod because that failed last week!

It failed just as you were about to do the final transfer of data. That seems a bit coincidental. Did you do anything different with the old Mac, like unplug it to move it or change devices connected to it?
To answer your question, you can take the drive out and put it into an external drive enclosure. The type of enclosure depends on whether the drive is the older PATA (IDE) or the currently used SATA. Or you can get a USB adapter like this that can connect any IDE or SATA drive to your new Mac's USB port.
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/U2NV2SPATA/
For your iTunes question, (assuming you are using the default settings for where you store your music) what you want to do is take your complete iTunes folder from
<user home folder>/Music/
and transfer it to your new Mac. All of you music (and other iTunes media) files should be in that folder, along with your +iTunes Library+ file and other supporting files. If some of your music and other media files are not stored in that folder (perhaps they are on an external drive), please post back with details.
On the new Mac, there will already be an iTunes folder at the same location. As long as it is new and empty, move your transferred iTunes folder to replace it. iTunes should NOT be running when you do this action. With the old iTunes folder sitting there in place of the new one, run iTunes. It should look like iTunes on your old Mac.

How sync mail accounts between Mac and iPhone!!

Hi,
May a trivial and stupid question but never found an answer!
How easily sync mail account information (preferences of each mail account) between mac's (Mac Mini and Mac Book Pro) and iPhone?
Sorry to say that but it's so easy in Windows!! Just check the option box in itunes!!
For now, I use iCloud, define to sync mail and connected with same account on all my mac and iPhone ... nothing happened!
Oh yes, sorry, I have three accounts out of 13 who appear!!! But WHY?
I red somewhere that the account information (password) must be saved in keychain ... ok ... but how do I change that for all account?
I tried to remove one and recreate ... no success ... doesn't appear.
Why is it so complicated to have that working as the Mac is so user-friendly?
I also try a search on Apple site ... no explanation!
Some one with a clear and simple "How To" to share?
MANY THANKS!
Pierre

Account "preferences" changing between home and work...

I'm not exactly sure what the issue is, but here goes...
On my MacBook I have only one user account (same as the administrator). At home, I connect to the Internet via Airport.
When I bring my notebook to work, I connect to the Internet via an ethernet connection. I do not have to login or any other maneuever to gain access to the Internet.
Everything works fine generally. One odd behavior I've noticed -- certain of my login items seem to disappear when I'm at work. Specifically, I have several Yahoo Widgets (Konfabulator) on my desktop. Only some launch when I'm at work. Also, it seems that certain changes to my desktop (wallpaper, location of icons, etc) change between home and work.
Any idea what might be causing this behavior? Thanks!

Hi Flojo:
You will need a seperate "screen name" for each Mac in order to video chat. The nice thing is you can get another .Mac screen name by signing up for another .Mac account and and after the free trial, you can keep the .Mac screen name.
OR
Just sign up for a free AIM screen name here: http://www.aim.com/
You don't need a paid .Mac account in order to video chat!
