Looking to Put Inspire 5.1 5300 Back In Service

The situation is like this: I have the Creative Inspire 5.1 5300 speaker system: however, it has a wired remote that doesn't work. (That is literally the only problem; however, with the wired remote unusable, the speaker system itself is useless.) Creative *does* carry other wired remotes (specifically one for the newer Inspire P5800); however, I have no idea if the remote will work with the older 5300 (I'm not expecting the M-Dock to work, and have no use for it if it does). Will the P5800 wired remote work? Will I instead have to contact Creative Direct (I'm in the US) for a 5300 replacement remote? Or am I basically screwed (and thus have to buy another speaker system, which is not exactly inexpensive)?

I tested the speaker again. This time round, I did a few test using VLC, Media Player, and Audacity. What I hear on the VLC and the Media Player is very consistent, the 5kHz tone is not as ear piercing as the 10kHz tone. I then test using Audacity. Initially, the 5kHz tone is more ear piercing then the 0kHz. But after I played the tone again on the VLC and Media player, and then back to Audacity again, what I hear became the same as that played in VLC and Media Player. So, now I am wondering which part of my PC is having problem software, sound card, or some other things that is not known to me. Can somebody please enlighten me?

I'm looking for some inspiration here on how best to set up my TC

Copied from a post else where, any help greatly appreciated!!
I'm looking for some inspiration here on how best to set up my TC for my needs & wondering how others do for similar needs....
I have a 2TB TC that I have set up so that all of mine & my girlfriends photo's, music, movies & documents are on the one location so that we can access it wirelessly from both our MacBooks & also from a MacMini which I'm going to buy in a month or 2. Changing the location for where iTunes & iPhoto look wasn't a problem but browsing through iPhoto in particular is really slow due to the number of previews I presume, and also we are now unable to have any of the media with us when traveling about, synching phones on the move is a disaster as well!
Anyway,
is there an easy way of setting up iTunes / iPhoto so that we can have all the data on the TC managed on the MacMini but import small iTunes Playlists & iPhoto Albums to our MacBooks without having to change in preferences where the applications look for data each time we get home?
Any help anybody can offer would be grand!
Thanks in advance.........

You topic might be better suited for the iPhoto or iTunes forums, since your question seems to be with the application(s) functionality, not really the Time Capsules. However, if you start iPhoto or iTunes while holding down on the "option/alt" key, you can manually select a library to access. When you want one of your computers to access the library on the Time Capsule, make sure it's mounted as a shared volume on your Desktop and then open iTunes and point it towards the library on the Time Capsule. If you want to use a smaller library on your computer, open iTunes and point it to the library on your Mac. I've never switched back and forth multiple times between multiple libraries, so you might check in the iPhoto or iTunes forums to see if any issues may arise from doing this repeatedly.

Inspire 5.1 5300 - only 2 speakers work

Hi,
I've been using these Inspire 5.1 5300 speakers for quite some time and it worked without problems all this while.
But today out of a sudden I realised there is only sound coming out from two of the five speakers.
I thought the speakers were spoilt so I tested by switching the cables around but it worked after that.
What can I do to rectify this problem? Does the problem lie with the settings (I didn't change anything) or the subwoofer that I'm connecting my speakers to?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi - I have the same problem as frogdorr. Onset 2 years ago.
Inspire 5300 speakers with audigy OEM card. Worked fine (and brilliantly!) for several months to a year. Then suddenly back two speakers stopped working. It is not the speakers - rotate them and they work fine but the new back speakers don't work.
Checked all windows settings (2000 & XP), speakers, conflicts etc. Reinstalled win.
Rotate the black and green plugs ( then rear becomes front, front becomes rear) means front left & right speakers don't work.
Used the audigy sound card with quadraphonic speakers (fps600) with no problem front & back. Used built in M/B sound card with the same result- no sound back speakers.
Seems like a cube loose wiring problem to me.
Where to from here?
Is there a service manual or approach to fixing this problem?

The optical drive supplied in the Media Live is an IDE PATA drive, but there's no reason why you can't connect it to a free SATA port. However you'll need a SATA power converter like shown below if there are no free SATA power connectors.

Installation of Adobe Reader XI using customization tool but looking to put two check marks

Hi guys,
Installation of Adobe Reader XI using customization tool but looking to put two check marks in the signature bottom two options
called Validating Signatures and Validating Certified Documents.
Can't find it in the customization tool and don't want to change this on 650 workstations.
If I could change a registry key or change it in the installation it would help alot.
Thanks for your help!!!

I am posting this reply AGAIN
My first reply was empty because i responded to the email I received saying this thread (is that the right terminology?) was updated. Obviously that email didn't get added, just a blank line....
Then I replied to this thread directly on Friday and that seems to have disappeared. Maybe I just don't know how to use a computer? Better sell the technology company I own LOL.
Ok so it seems the screen is normal, (not maximized). When I unlock and drop my start bar to one row, then the top of the screen pops down to inside my visible monitor space and it is not maximized. This allows me to drag it to another monitor and then maximize it there, then put my start bar back and relock it. This is the only way I can move the window, if I don't shrink my start bar, then I have zero access to the top bars of the document!
Currently I can not reproduce the problem ( I might have temporarily fixed it with my start bar reducing and then moving documents), so maybe it is permanently fixed....
Maybe a reboot will bring the problem back... It has been intermittent for about 6 months.

There's no reason to install a smaller hard drive. In some cases, it may decrease performance.
Your MacBook Pro comes with a 5400 rpm hard drive, so what you can do is to install a smaller, 7200 rpm hard drive, so you will get a better performance. Any 2'5" SATA hard drive will work, but you can have a look at OWC for hard drives > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/
HGST and Seagate hard drives have a good reputation, so you can purchase one of them

SanandaDutta
tried on a different mac. The same problem exists.
If that is the case, its extremely unlikely you have a bad USB cable on the seagate, rather as I mentioned earlier a bad SATA bridge card.
If the Seagate 1TB USB external wont open on either Mac and youve verified same (try a diff. USB cable if you have one however this is nearly never the case),....then to get the data off that HD (unless it is dead which is also extremely unlikely),......then you would need to extract the HD from its case and insert same into either a HD dock or USB HD enclosure.
8 out of 10 seemingly dead inopperable 1-3+ year old external HD are perfectly fine, rather the cheap 50 cent SATA bridge card fries and dies (alas)
reply back if you need help in extracting same.

Having Problem With Inspire 5.1 5300 rear speaker...

Anyone Have Any Idea Please Tell Me. Thank You

Just to clarify, by "FCP 5 friendly source material," he means video files that are a format (codec) that FCP 5 supports. What FCP 5 supports can be found in the EASY SETUP list. If the format you are working with isn't there, say if your footage is H.264 or MP4 or some other web compressed format, FCP won't work properly. It needs to be in an editing codec if you want FCP 5 to work with it.
Also, you need to make sure that your sequence settings match the settings of the footage you are trying to edit. If you add a clip to the sequence, and immediately have to render, that's a big clue to say that something isn't right. You should edit without rendering at all.
The most important thing you need to do is properly set up your project from the start, and the best way to do this is to choose a setting from the Easy Setups, located under the Final Cut Pro menu. Once you do this, you’ll need to create a new sequence. This is because the sequence that is already in your new project is setup for the typical default setting of DV/NTSC, or for the settings of your last project, which might not match what you are currently working with. So delete SEQUENCE 1 and create a new sequence:
This new sequence will contain the settings you chose in the Easy Setup menu, and should match the format you captured

Which speaker system is better: Inspire 5200 or 5300?

Hi,
I'm just about to :smileyindifferent: buy new Creative speaker systems. Unfortunately, in my country and city options are scarce. Only few models are available and I am trying to get a good, decent sound, with good bass for bassy songs (i.e. dance, hip-hop), and good sound in general for PC-based games and DVDs.
I am given two choices: Creative Inspire 5200 and 5300. The big question: which one is better? I supposed that since 5300 is a bigger number than 5200, the 5300s should be better; but I may be wrong (e.g. the total RMS power of the 5200s is slightly higher than the 5300s!), so... somebody can give me a piece of advice on this?
I am willing to spend as much as USD$50.00 on my new speakers... so if someone has better speakers in mind for that price, I'm open to suggestions. With luck, I can give them a try.
Regards.

I am looking to put a solid state drive in the Lap Top - 128gb will do, but I want a good one. Can any one recommend one?
Thanks - Seb

I believe, for price and quality, you'll find this agreeable.

You'll want the 115gb SSD; this is well-suited for the requirements of your system - which are identical to mine. Right now, the price is decent, but keep your eyes open for regular sales (like the the Independence Day sale, which knocked $50 from the total price).

HT1296 How do you put all music on Ipod back onto a previously crashed computer in which the original music files were not able to be restored?

Hi, HOW DO YOU PUT ALL MUSIC FROM IPOD BACK ONTO A PREVIOUSLY CRASHED COMPUTER IN WHIHC ALL MUSIC FILES WERE UNABLE TO BE RESTORED.
My computer crashed a few months ago and my IT guys were not able to restore my music files.. at least I can't find them. When I log into Itunes, all of my music and play lists appear but when I click to play a song in Itunes on computer, it says the files can not be found. My Ipod obviously has all of my music but I'd like to add more (without deleting what I've got on there) and to copy back whats on my Ipod back to my computer. If I plug together and my computer sync then I will loose all music... needing detailed instructions please.

from what i understand, the procecess is similar on both mac and pc, so i'll try help you here. have you set your preferences to "automatically update all"?
Yes i have.
if this isn't working, maybe try moving one that you are certain is in the correct format, manually. import it from scratch to your itunes, and then copy it to the ipod.
If i click 'import files' the only files it comes up with are text file. Should it be doing this?' So the only files i can import are written documents :/
If i select 'add files' it dosnt add them to my libary at all.
I tryed what you said, i deleted my movies then loaded one into my libary which i no is in the right format but it still said that it is unable to put into my ipod.
Thanks for trying to help by the way :]
