Looking For Volume Control Knob

something like the big knob, but smaller, less expensive, that could sit on top of my keyboard so i can control volume going to my speakers. any ideas?
thanks

i just got a griffin powermate, depending on how you mean to control the volume going to your speakers, it could work. it doesn't do midi control as far as I can tell, but you can use it to control your system volume, and there may be a way to configure it to control your master fader in logic.

How can I set up a custom keyboard shortcut for volume control?

Hi all,
I use my black MacBook at work, connected to an external monitor and external keyboard. I'm looking for a way to set up the F buttons on my external keyboard as volume control, just as they do on my laptop keyboard. Looking for F3 to F5 to be volume mute, down, and up, respectively.
I tried going into Keyboard Shortcuts in System Preferences but since there is no menu item for volume control I can't seem to add it. Anyone know how I can go about doing this or what I'm missing?
Thanks
Mike

paste the following into Applescrpt Editor (it's in /Applications/Utilities)
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
set curVolume to output volume of (get volume settings)
-- work out the new setting
if curVolume < 96 then
set newVolume to curVolume + 5
else
-- can't go over 100
set newVolume to 100
end if
-- and apply it
set volume output volume newVolume</pre>
this script will increase volume by 5 (out of 100) any time you run it. you can adjust this of course. save the script somewhere.
You can use a 3rd part app launcher to bind a keyboard shortcut to it. I use Butler. there are many others: Quicksilver, ikeys, quickeys, Spark, Launchbar.
this will work the fastest.
If you don't want to use 3rd party tools for this you can make a service using automator but that might be a bit slower than the first option. open automator. it will give you a pulldown screen wiuth the choice of what you want to make. choose "service". set it to receive no input and be available in all applications. add the following "run apple script" action to the service
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
on run {input, parameters}
set curVolume to output volume of (get volume settings)
-- work out the new setting
if curVolume < 96 then
set newVolume to curVolume + 5
else
-- can't go over 100
set newVolume to 100
end if
-- and apply it
set volume output volume newVolume
end run</pre>
save the service, go to keyboard system preferences->keyboard shortcuts->services and make a shortcut for the service you just created.

Remapping PC Keyboard keys for volume control

I got an XArmor keyboard because I love mechanical keyswitches. Works great with my Mac.
However, I do miss having volume control.
How can I remap keys like say Option->Apple->+ to be the increase volume key?
The +, -, and enter keys on the numeric keypad would be great for volume control.
The only software I found so far for doing this was very clumsy and unreliable: Sparks.

Use the side edge volume controls.
There's no keyboard controls that I know of, other than the # key might place your device on the Silent profile (or the top edge MUTE key )

How do I set shortcuts on my new onn wireless keyboard for volume control?

Replacement Keyboard
Volume control issue with a non- Apple Keyboard
[Sunday - July 29, 2012 - 2:18pm]
Question: I just purchased a new keyboard in place of the orginal for my iMac which gave out this morning. The brand name of the keyboard is
ONN & it's a wireless board. I've encountered an issue that is a deal breaker - if there is no possible way to correct it. The volume control buttons used to
increase/decrease/mute the volume do not work on this product. I bough this keyboard because it was one of the two that was Mac compatable at my
local store. I realize you get what you pay for but hope there is a soulution!
**Sidenote: I was curious, anyone had any other issues with these keyboards?
Some additional information:
When I woke up this morning, sat down in my computer chair, turned on my iMac and pulled up Textedit. I placed my hands on my faithful keyboard and within moments I realized that it had met it's end. I was quite upset that my original, sleek white iMac keyboard was now a thng of the past but realized that I'd need a replacement very soon in order to get my paperwork done.
Unfortunately, I did not have time to ride forty-five minutes to my local Apple store and I didn't neccesarily want to hand over the cash for one of the pricey keyboards at the time because I am going on a vacation within the next few weeks and each dime counts. So, I decided to visit a store that obviously would have the cheapeast deals in the meantime. So, I headed to to Wal-Mart to make a quick purchase
As I walked the aisles it soon became evident that today's market still is not on point when it comes to having Apple compatable hardware, softwore or anything for that matter. As I quickly skimmed the keyboards I ran across several that caught my eye, but of course, they were all made specifically for Windows. So, finally I approcahed two keyboards that were Mac compatible. The first was way too large and came with a mouse, which I did not need. The second caught my eye and I knew that this would be my purchase.:::
The verdict: an onn wireless keyboard that was both affordable and also gave off a sleek and modern apperance. (Retailed: $24.00)
So, I got home and began using the board. For the first how I was actuallly very satisfied. I like the buttons and the feel of the board. Then, I encountered a problem that made my interested for the new keyboard vanish.
The Issue: On the boards layout, the (F2) key has a symbol that notates the decrease volume control button, (F3) of course would be the increase volume button & lastly the (F4) button represents the [mute] button.
However, these buttons don't work. Sadly, I am not aware of how I could possibly change this issue or if it would even be possible. I sincerely hope that it's possible - because I like the convience of the volume control keys - they were actually my favorite part of the keyboard. Manually changing the volume by going through system preferences does not sound fun to me once so ever. I guess you could call me spoiled but I don't think I can even keep this board if it doesn't have the ability to change volume/mute via the keyboard.
This is a shame because the keyboard it'self isn't bad at all and I actually somewhat like it. So, if you have any information or an answer to this question - I'd truly appreciate hearing your responses! Also, do keep in mind I am a rookie when it comes to computers as a whole so try to simplicate things for me if that is nessecary.
Closing negative note on this keyboard: As I typed this I started encountering a very annoying problem. As I am typing in a line, forming a sentence the keyboard would randomly start typing in pargraphs above and below as well. I'm not sure if this is something that I caused by pressing too hard with my hands or if this is a deffect. Either way, I will saving my receipt and the boxing for this product until I hear further news.
I hope to hear from you soon and I appreciate your help very much.
Have a great day,
David Travis Center

Looking for remote control App (iPhone) to use with iMovie

I just got a Macbook Air, and my infrared Apple remote control doesn't work with it.
I wanted to be able to do presentations (in this case using iMovie) and be able to have a remote so that I could pause, go back, fast forward, i.e. the usual things a remote does.
There probably is a good App that I can install on my iPhone that will let me use my iPhone as a remote control, but I don't know which one. Any suggestions???? Ideally, it would be a bluetooth program (although Wi-Fi would work too) that would also work with other programs, like Keynote.
Thanks!
Dan

Well, I don't know much about this, but if you need to control the actual system in some way, you are going to need to use JNI (Java Native Interface), which is essentially embedding C/C++ code in your java app, which doesn't lend well to platform-independence. I too develop on a Mac, and there is a mailing list for Java related issues on the Mac. You can check it out at: http://developer.apple.com/java/
If you sign up for ADC (Apple Developer Connection, it's free), you can have access to these mailing lists. They've been quite helpful to me in the past. I don't mean to slam the forums here, but you are looking for a Mac specific solution, and you'd probably get more specific information on this mailing list. Hope this helps!!

Is there a widget for Volume Control for HTML5 projects

Is there a Volume Control widget for HTML5 projects in Captivate 8? How does articulate do it?
Is there a 3rd party Volume Control widget?

Hi there
"Adobe Captivate will need to change to complete."
I'm assuming here you meant to type "compete". But that's the nature of any upgrade, no? I'm sure that Captivate will change.
For what it's worth, I was toying with creating a simple audio player. Captivate does offer a way to increase the volume and decrease the volume using Advanced Actions. It works for SWF output. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work when Captivate produces HTML 5. I didn't test with Responsive output.
Cheers... Rick

Looking for MSI Control Center Tutorial for overclocking i7 2600K

Please, I am looking for a Detailed TUTORIAL for overclocking With MSI Control Center an I7 2600K on P67A-GD55 motherboard.
Thank you.

Quote from: Bernhard on 18-October-12, 14:39:08
Intel absolute max is 100C, but for 24/7 continuous temps 70 to 80C under full load is a sensible.
My personal comfort zone is around 70C. I use Prime95 to see where the temps top out. As long as that is 80 or below, I am happy, as I know that no program that I use stresses the CPU 100% all the time.
The only time I made sure that I stayed at 75 max was when I was folding. That pushes the CPU to 100%. I ran my 2600K for one year continuous and the core temps were always between 65 and 75 at 4,5GHz, my core voltage was at around 1,35V. That CPU still has no issue.
Thank you for your feedback.
In fact, I'm looking for how to proceed with MSI Control Center to achieve the optimal settings for overclocking.
What are the steps to increase the multiplier and possibly increase the voltage?
Then, indeed, I think it will be better to enter these overclocking settings in the bios.

Looking for Source Control suggestions

I'm a non-professional "at home" programmer and want to set up and experiment with Source Control. The available options seem to be CVS, Subversion and Perforce, although I gather that CVS is 'old technology' replaced by Subversion.
My requirements (desires)
A) Run on 10.4.11
B) integrate with XCode, but can be accessed without it when desired
C) have a GUI interface (can use command line, but prefer GUI)
D) can store non-text documents (like Word Processing and Spreadsheets - not necessarily graphics)
What are advantages/disadvantages of Subversion vs Perforce?
What are the best GUIs for Subversion?
Any suggestions / advice would be appreciated.
Thanks for any help.

There are actually quite a few more than that. Plus, Perforce is commercial software. I believe it can be used for free under some circumstances, such as yours.
It sounds like you have bought into the Subversion propaganda There is nothing wrong with CVS. It is super easy to setup and use. It is more a competitor to Subversion than being replaced by it. In fact, I would now call Subversion 'old technology' replaced by Git.
My requirements (desires)
A) Run on 10.4.11
They all do.
B) integrate with XCode, but can be accessed without it when desired
Most do.
C) have a GUI interface (can use command line, but prefer GUI)
Most do. There may be 3rd parties that have build GUIs in some cases.
D) can store non-text documents (like Word Processing and Spreadsheets - not necessarily graphics)
They all do.
I can't answer any other questions as I've never really used Subversion or Perforce. I tried to install the Subversion server but gave up because it was way too complicated. I like CVS - sweet and simple.

Looking for Swing control like Explorer Bar

Hi folks,
on Win XP you have in the Windows Explorer (file mode) on the left side this nice column showing additonal information about the selected file like creation date or a thumb of an image file. You can expand and collapse the information panels by clicking on an arrow icon in the head of the panel.
I haven't seen such a control for Java Swing. Maybe there is one but I'm searching with the wrong key word.
Any ideas?
Sebastian

I believe that a JTree with customized renderers
would bring you something close to what you expect.No, this would be a dirty hack. I was thinking more about a layout with several cells and in each cells some kind of control. Still I was hoping that something like that already exists.

Side chaining for volume control

Basically, I need to set up one track to automatically increase or decrease in volume according to the output of another. This is without any manual volume automation.
In other words, if the waveform for Track A has something in it, then Track B should be playing its own audio at the same level.
I heard this was possible with side chaining but I haven't a clue where to begin. Any help?

Photoshop and Firefox looking for volume that no longer exits

A few months ago, I migrated from my dying MacBook G4 to a new Intel-based one. Since then, when I start Photoshop Elements or Firefox on the new MacBook, the application tries to access the hard drive on my old MacBook (Photoshop does this just once at startup; Firefox does this repeatedly, in patterns that I could not quite figure out yet). Unless I keep the old MacBook running on the network, the application hangs while it searches for the hard drive, and eventually displays the usual "Connection failed -- The server may not exist or it is not operational at this time. Check the server name or IP address and your network connection and try again" message. For Firefox, this is often several times in a row, so the application hangs for several minutes.
Naturally, I have reinstalled both applications as cleanly as I could, trashing every associated file I could find. The fact that the problem occurs for both of them suggests to me that the problem is elsewhere: both probably access the same Apple component, but I do not know which.
Any suggestion is appreciated.

You miss understood they meant perhaps you could find someone here who had an extra license they would be willing to sell you, even if they did not use those exact words.
If your iMac supports CS4 it would cost you the same thing more then likely.
BTW legal or illegal if you used someone else's cross grade install it would be a waste of time as your windows serial number will not work on the Mac version. The $20 fee for the cross grade is for the Mac serial number which you can only get from Adobe but they do not sell it anymore.
Illegal or not it would not work, the support meant perhaps you could buy a Mac license for CS2 or 3 if someone wanted to part with their license for some reason.
Do yourself a favor upgrade to CS 4 if your iMac supports it and if not upgrade your iMac as well. You will be much happier, much more productive and it will prove more profitable.

All of the sudden my music will not play nor will sound play on games or texts. It will work when people call but I can not push the buttons for volume control either. Anyone help???

Volume control for video playback through Apple TV2

I am trying to configure the volume settings used on airplay through apple TV2 and a macbook pro and Iphone4 all with most recent updates.
I am using the apple remote app on my iphone to control the apple tv.
Whats working:
Using the pandora app on my iphone through aiplay to the apple tv, I can control the volume using the plus and minus buttons on the side of the iphone for volume control. Very cool and easy.
Using the apple remote app on my iphone I can control the itunes volume of different speakers by clicking on the airplay icon and using a slider. Not as cool as using the hard +/- buttons but still works.
Whats not working:
Controling volume on appleTV2 through the iphone remote app for video playbacks like netflix, and youtube.
Why I want this: RIght now I can control most of the multimedia right from my iphone including cranking the music up:) But when I switch over to video(Netlfix, Youtube) I have to get out another remote (stereo reciever) to control the volume. It seems we are so close to being able to control everything off the iphone, the only thing missing is volume control for video playback.
Is there a setting that can be changed or a solution I havent found?
Thanks

Same problem with TV3. HDMI volume output is not adjustable, neither with the original Apple remote nor with any universal. Why ? Every simple settop-box is able to be volume adjusted. And a Mac Mini too ?!!!
I use a flatscreen TV. it has 3 HDMI inputs and one optical out for the audio going to an amp standing behind it. The sound of the TV is switched to go to the optical out.
HDMI 1 is connected to the satellite settop box with its own remote control ( channel +/-, volume +/- etc. ) it work s fine.
HDMI 2 is connected to the MacMini HDMI out with its own remote control ( channel/music +/-, volume +/- ) it works fine too.
HDMI 3 was connected to Apple TV3 with its own remote control ( channel/music +/- but no volume ). I sent the TV3 back to Apple.
What's going wrong in the mind of Apple ? Why is the HDMI volume output of the MacMini adjustable with the Apple remote, and the TV3 not ?
I want not to discuss, wether a 4th remote control is useful or not. I don't want it. I want to adjust the volume with the originl remote control of the specific unit I use, because I need it anyway. It worked since years, but not with Apple TV3.
How can we help Apple to open the volume +/- function on their own remote control ?
