Mac OSX 10.8.2 Core Audio Frequency Selection Bug

Have posted a youtube video of the problem with details of the issue. http://youtu.be/j2jljzDTBaU
Anyone got a resolution?
Thanks, J

After working on this case with a senior apple tech firstly I have to say I'm very impressed with their ownership and support. We've narrowed the problem down to the USB 3.0 Hub. I've replaced it with a Belkin 7 port powered USB 2.0 HUB F5U237 rev 3 and I can now switch frequencies all day long if I like Now I dont know if the problem is related to this particular Targus Hub or the Macbook Pro's USB 3.0? I'd still like this resolved as I'd like to be able to use the USB 3.0 Hub for HDD USB 3.0

I just installed the new firefox for Mac OSX 10.6.8 and when I select an image on a site (right click and copy) and paste in Photoshop 5.5, the image lightens. It does not do this in Safari.

Firefox, Safari, and PhotoShop each handle embedded color profiles differently. For an add-on that makes it easier to experiment with Firefox's color management options, you might be interested in: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-management/ Color Management :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

Problem with mac osx 10.6.4 and audio firewire device

ok i use an edirol fa-66 , the problem is a random one , sometimes when i play music with itunes , logic or even the preview mp3 feature , the sound go downsampled and then stops, the only way to return is turn off and turn on the audio interface. I had this problem time ago only with logic 9.0.2 but with the version 9.1.1 everithing got right. Now with osx 10.6.4 the problem come back on all the audio programs (not only logic),so i have returned to 10.6.3, everithing works fine.
conclusion
in 10.6.4 there is something wrong with the core audio that is incompatible with edirol fa device.
maybe with osx 10.6.5 apple can resolve this?
i'm thinking to buy a motu device (they have their driver and don't use core audio)

I Mac(OS 10.6.5) Core Audio MIDI doesn't work

I just bought iMac. Problem is Core Audio/MIDI doesn't work at all.
I installed Logic Studio, Battery..but none of them working with MIDI interface.
When I worked with Macbook(OS 10.5) before, there was no problem at all.
I Used Mbox2 for audio interface and mic pre, and master keyboard with USB port as MIDI device.
Now I can't work at all with my music project because of audio/MIDI problem.
I tried to fix it opening Audio MIDI setup but I only get the message saying..
"Required Software extensions are missing"
and when I go to the the page after clicking OK, then it says that I need to get supported by software company for upgrade, which I have the latest version...
also I get the message "Core MIDI quits unexpectedly...".
These two message pop up every time I open Logic Studio too.
I hope solution for this matter.
I really need to focus on producing my music...

So, after long work around which failed this is how i made it work!
I think the problem is the latest update of the system (10.6.5) I am back now on 10.6.2 and all is fine : this is how i managed it based on the fact that the whole thing was working fine on my MBP.
1. download a copy of SuperDuper from the net
2.Open MBP and then firewire Target mode the iMac to the MBP
3. with the SuperDuper clone the Hard disk of the MBP to the iMac
This will erase all on your iMac and make its hard disc exactly the same as the MBP; it also makes it bootable.
4.open iMac alone
5. insert the original system dvd for the iMac and install the SnowLeopard system BUT DO NOT UPGRADE
6.restart as demanded and you should be on 10.6.2
with your desktop and hard disk running exactly as it was on your MBP
7 when opening Logic (or the other pro apps like FCStudio pro then you will be asked for your serial numbers which it duly accepts
8. all then should be running fine
Total time depends on size of your MBP hard disk (for me it took c. 3 hours including the reinstall 10.6.2) but all is now as it should be

Mac pro latency...core audio

While I wait for the Apogee Enseble to arrive, I am working a little bit using the core audio. There is a little more latency than I am used to @512 but the worst thing is everytime I press play I have to wait about 3 seconds before anything happens. Other functions seem to be delayed as well. I checked out Garageband and the latency was terrible, completely unusable, yet when I first tried it a few days previous it was fine.
Any suggestions would be great
2GB of Ram by the way and another 2 are on order.
7.2.2
10.4.7
Thanks

Use an extra HD for audio recording.
Done
Deactivate journaling for that.
Don't use plugins like Linear Phase EQ or AdLimiter.
Okay
You should be able to use 64 or even 32 as buffer
I will go down to 64
Don't run Logic under Rosetta.
How do I know if Logic is running under Rosetta? I am running 7.2.2.
Thanks for the help!

Core Audio Track Selection ?

Hi
In Logic 7 I used to be able click and hold on an audio instrument track in the arrange page and a pop up menu/list of all the audio instrument channels would appear allowing me to choose whichever channel/instrument I wanted. Now in Logic 8 it seems I have to keep adding tracks in order to get to what I want ...
eg: The last track is Inst6 , but I want to use Inst 24, and the only way I can do it is to keep pressing the "New with next Channel Strip/Intrument" option to get to 24 ..by which time theres also a pile of empty tracks (inst 7-23)which I then have to delete .... Surely its something obvious but I cant find it.
Also my "Core Audio" option in Inspector is greyed out ?
Can anybody help ?
thanks
Paul

Press 'control' while clicking on the instrument or audio track you want to change. you get 2 options,
the first of which is 'reassign track object' - move across and you'll see all the options are there
available to you.

Mac OSX Mavericks 10.9 firewire audio problem on RME Fireface 800, MOTU 828 Mk II and Apogee Duet on late 2013 iMac i7

I just got the late 2013 iMac 3.5GHz Intel Core i7 and all my firewire based audio interfaces do not work properly although I upgraded to the latest drivers. iTunes or Youtube can play for a short and then there are unbrearable digital noises.
Apogee Duet is slightly better that can play for a few minutes. Then it may have short pause or digital noises. I need to reset the "Sample Rate" to other values to get it work again.
MOTU 828 mk II and RME Fireface 800 are having the most serious problems. Alternating the sample rate can sometimes help but often I need to reboot the iMac to get it work again. However, it works for only 1-2 minutes before the digital noises.
These are the software/drivers I installed:
- Apogee Maestro 2 version 2.8.8
- MOTU Universal Audio Installer for Mac OS X version 1.6.58373 (8/20/2013)
- RME version 3.19, firmware 2.77
I connect the fireware through Apple Thunderbolt to Firewire convertor.
These drivers are supposed to work with 10.9 but they don't. Anyone can help or share experience?

I've read in other forums that there are two issues that is causing this problem of chopping audio and freezing interfaces. One has to do with USB 2.0 /USB 3.0 issues in OS. The other seems to be an issue with the Fusion drive.
The fix for the fusion drive issue that has been shared online is to either:
Option #1. Don't use the fusion drive and create an external boot drive clone (either SSD or standard HD) and use as your primary drive (completely surpassing the internal fusion drive).
Option #2. Split the internal fusion drive. From there you can use them as two separate logical drives. Load your OS on one of the drives (SSD or HD). http://www.macworld.com/article/2015664/how-to-split-up-a-fusion-drive.html
Before, you do any of the above, make sure that you backup your current system setup.
I just received my imac (2013) with 3TB fusion and I plan on trying option #1. I bought a 3TB external USB drive which I plan to clone after I have the machine running. Once I clone the internal drive, I will test how the machine runs from both the internal fusion and the external to prove if this addresses the audio clipping/stopping problem. Hopefully, Apple will find a fix for this.
It is really a dissapointment that a brand new $2500+ machine and software was not tested to perform something that my 2008 MacBookPro and my home built Window XT machine (circa 2003) did without issue. I wished that I would have checked the forums about these issues before I purchased the machine.
You can do some searches online and find even more detail discussions on this topic.

Getting inputs on Digi 002 to be seen by Mac OSX Core Audio

My question revolves around getting step-by-step intructions for getting inputs to be recognized by Digi Core Audio. Microphone is not recognized when plugged into Digi 002. Working with a Digi 002, MidiMan 4x4, and Mac OSX Lion and using Logic Pro9. Can someone please tell me why computer is seeing the Digi 002 but is not seeing the microphone (inputs)? Do I need to set something up differently in the Mac Core Audio? Or did the PACE extensions I downloaded for userlok, or whatever that's called, mess up
the audio/MIDI configs?

Mac G5/Pro Tools 002R Digi Core Audio Won't Launch HELP!!

All of a sudden Digi Core Audio won't launch. Not with I-Tunes, Not With Pro Tools, not with audio through the internet. What should I do? HELP!!
I haven't installed or updated anything. I ran disk utility and I got a message in RED saying
Volume Header Needs minor repair/
Volume Macintosh HD Needs to be repaired.
1. HFS Volume Checked
Volume Needs Repair
Someone suggested I hit the repair button but the repair disk button is grayed out.
What should I do next. I am basically computer illiterate, can you talk me through it like I am an 6 year old.
Thanks!!

Hi, you cannot Repair the drive you are booted from... a silly OSX feature if you ask me!
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Tiger Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.
(If perchance you cant Find your Install Disk, at least do the Safe Boot part above).
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, or things don't load/run, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates again, or even do an A&I if you have enough free disk space.

The combo update for Intel-based Macs...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateintel.html
Repair Permissions before & after re-install, then reboot again each time.
If all the above fails, then it appears to be time for a relatively painless Archive & Install, which gives you a new/old OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space and no Disk corruption, and is relatively quick & painless...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
Just be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings.
I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...

That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

IMac 24" iMac (iMac7,1), Intel Core 2 Duo 2,8 GHz Ram 4 MB running OS 10.6.8: impossible upgrade to Mac OSX Mavericks. Already created second account, according to apple online support, but still doesn't work. Thanks for help.

Your Mac is definitely one of the supported models? http://www.apple.com/uk/osx/specs/
If so, what happens when you try to download? Is it a case of nothing happens? If so, take a look at the suggestions under 'Stalled Download' in this link:
http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/10/mavericks-issues-and-fixes/#slideid-23477 1
Also, some usrs have found that logging out of the Mac App Store and then back in again and starting over has kick-started the download. It seems that the 5+gb download can take a long time to give any feedback as to what's happening.

Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
our Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space
If your computer isn’t compatible, you might be able to upgrade to Lion.
Computer Compatibility - Lion                       Lion
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.

I have a Mac Pro 4,1 quad core intel Xeon running mac OSX 10.6.8 and I have just moved studios and now need to use the Internet wirelessly but there's no airport facilities on this model can anyone tell me what model of airport card I would need for this

Instead of getting a wireless card for the Mac Pro, you might want to consider getting an 802.11ac wireless bridge device that would enable you to connect more than one device to it by Ethernet cable and to eventually take advantage of the faster 802.11ac wireless standard.

Cannot go to the Internet from Mac OSX, and Fedora Core 5

All Windows users (XP, 2000, Vista Beta) can connect to the Internet no problem on WRT54G with Firmware v4.20.6 (may 26, 2005). But odd enough, though getting the right DHCP assigned IP addresses and DNS server address, MacBook Pro (OS 10.4.1) and Fedora Core 5 cannot go to the internet at all using Safari and firefox browsers: the message keeps saying that your computer is not connected to the internet. Tested with BOTH wired and wireless connections, no luck to the internet. So, it's not about the wireless settings and setup. It doesn't work even if I directly connect the CAT5 cable to the router port.
Tested at wireless hotspots, at work where we have Cisco access points, and at a friend's place where there is netgear wireless router, MacBookPro is just working fine connected to the internet.
Any suggestions? Linksys doesn't support Mac and Linux PCs at all?

Thank you very much All (devildance, and Frank).
Seems like it is working fine now...
I reset the router as factory default, and reconfig the wireless setting(disable broadcasting SSID, configure TKIP PSK, and MAC filtering). Directly connected CAT5 cable from the router to my MacBookPro Windows XP. Working fine. Switched to Mac OSX, working fine. But, when I disconnected the LAN, and attempted to connect wireless, I couldn't go to the Internet using Safari and Firefox: keeps saying that your computer is not connected to the Internet.
Still could ping to 4.2.2.2 and 207.232.22.25, but getting errors "could not resolve the host name" when I pinged with the hostname bearshare.com.
Connected the wired CAT5. Working fine. Unplugged and used the wireless, could not get to the internet.
Checked the NICs settings on both LAN ethernet and wireless airport. All seems the same and correct: IP address, subnetmask and gateway address, and NO DNS entry. The same settings, but works on LAN cat5, and not works with wireless. So, for the sake of it, just manually added the DNS server IP addresses and domain names on wireless NIC. And Wala...it is working fine with wireless. Still strange the fact that Ethernet LAN NIC still doesn't have any DNS entries and working fine, but required DNS entries on wireless NIC.
For Fedora Core, could ping and resolve names without changing any settings. But when going to the Internet, got the error saying "comcast doesn't support this platform/OS" and another error "Welcome to Comcast High speed Internet....registration currently unavailable" when attempting to go any websites. Notieced that we pinging cnn.com, bearshare.com, or any websites, got ping reply from the same IP address which appears to be one of the comcast DNS server IP, 68.87.64.132.
So, I think it is a comcast issue not supporting Linux or something else which I would need to call to Comcast about...
But, thanks...looks like I can go to the Internet on Mac OSX, and Fedora core now with Linksys WRT54G. Thanks so much guys for all the suggestions....
