Midi note B below middle C is being played as Eb (below middle C) in the region only

When I'm recoding midi I'm running into a very strange problem..... randomly the B below middle C gets re-routed to Eb (below middle C). It shows right visually in the region, and when I go back to the controller and play the B note it plays correctly but when playing back the region it plays the Eb. Sometimes it will play back correctly but after a while it will happen and when it happens there is no way to make it do anything else....i tried other plugins , other tracks but it stays the same. Again, when you open the region to look at the midi, the midi notes are in the right place, if I click on the Bb note in the region it plays an Eb but if I go to the controller and play a B it plays a B...???. I have looked through everything to try and find anything that would be causing this but haven't found any reason for this.... it is very strange that it is only happening to one note and it always does the same thing....B to Eb....

Yep, that's a known glitch. Very hard to repeat, but reports keep trickling in. There are a few solutions though, but no method of preventing it. Since I reported it first, I haven't encountered it again. Knock on wood.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
HDCP
HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
Resolution and aspect ratio
I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p.

Ipod touch is not starting up unless connected to a main power source, even when connected to the pc only apple logo appears, how can i fix this

i pod 3 rd generation
was left in the car for like 4 hrs, seems that the temperature was high
ever since it stopped working unless connected to power source wall mounted
when connected to PC it just shows the apple logo on the display
itunes can not read the ipod of course
is it something i can fix by myself and how

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Getting external software to trigger midi notes in a logic project

Happy new years guys,
I've recently figured out how to use a 3rd party software (e.g. ableton live) to input midi notes into logic.
so i can set up an ES2 in logic, and use the software (ableton) as the source of midi info. great.
however, when i press the "spacebar" (i.e. play) to kick off my logic project, ableton is not playing as well.
ableton would play synced if logic was opened 1st, and ableton was the re-wire slave. but in re-wire slave mode, ableton has no midi outs !!
so on the 1 hand, i can open ableton 1st, then logic - which would give me the ability to use midi events in ableton to trigger ES2, but then I can't sync the playback of logic + ableton.
on the 2nd hand, i can open logic 1st, then ableton - which would let me press spacebar in logic, and ableton would then run synced as the slave. but this way, ableton has no midi outs, as its runnin in re-wire slave mode !!
what i really want to do is just use ableton as the midi sequencer / trigger, and use logic for everything else (mixing, effects, ES2 synth, ESM etc.)
i just want to use ableton to edit / create my midi info etc.
anybody have suggestions on how I can achieve this?
i appreciate your time / responses. this forum has been a great help for me.
ian

There's a couple of things to try...
If you're only using Ableton as the MIDI sequencer...
See if Ableton has the ability to sync to "MIDI Clock" and MIDI Song Pointer if possible.
Go into Logic's synchronization and enable MIDI Clock Out.
I don't know if the current IAC bus will do ot if you have to crteate a second.
The second way would invlove MTC (Midi Time Code) over a second IAC bus.

Assign midi notes to key commands

In LP7 I had some midi notes assigned to key commands. Is it possible to have it in LP8? I tried to assign them using the "learn new assignment" key but I couldn't find the old "Toggle midi remote" function. Is there a way to do it?
Thanks
Tovinho

Daryl, do you have Logic Express installed already or not? Touch tracks objects are Environment objects. Environment is used for advanced Logic setup. However, trigger modes for touch tracks objects are limited to just starting/stopping playback of the midi-clip assigned to it. Here is how it is written in the manual:
Trigger Modes
The Trigger column determines how region playback is handled:
Multi: Playing the trigger note starts the region. Playing it again restarts the region,
without stopping playback of the originally triggered version.
Single: Playing the trigger note once starts the region. Playing it again stops
playback, and restarts the region.
Gate: The region plays until the trigger note is released (or until the region ends).
*Gate Loop*: The region loops until the trigger note is released.
Toggle: Playing the trigger note starts the region. Playing it again stops playback.
*Toggle Loop*: Playing the trigger note starts region looping. Playing it again stops
playback.
There are always workarounds to make Logic work as you want though. However, I'd recommend considering Ableton Live as an alternative. Just google it and download the manual to look at it's potential.

I can not get imac w/Snow Leopard's address book to sync with ipad 1correctly? I only get about half the contacts?

I have tried repeatedly to get my address book on my imac w/ snow leopard to sync to my ipad 1 correctly and have failed every time. I only get about 1/3 the number of contacts and they don't all even correlate with the ones on the imac. Like one will have full middle name and the other only the initial. I don't know where itunes is getting these contacts but doesn't match those in my address book. I keep telling itunes to replace the contacts on the ipad with those on my mac but it doesnt work. Can't do it with icloud cause snow leopard doesn't support, it still wants to use the non existant mobile me format. Hope someone can help. I added the all amnually once before but they screwed up when I sync each time.

Thanks for your response Ernie. You are correct in that whenever you type a series of letters, Address Book (as it always has) finds every single thing with that combination of letters - Names, businesses, adjectives, people's dogs' names, letters in product serial numbers, etc. This is useful for finding a subject on the Web, or finding all documents related to 'iPhoto' on your Mac, etc., but not useful, quick or convenient when trying to find one person to call in your Address Book (which is what people use Address Book for).
What is DIFFERENT in the Snow Leopard version, is that the ability to type one letter to instantly go to last names with that letter has been removed. Previously, you could easily find 'Bill Tilman' in one second by simply typing 'T'. Now you get every word that starts with T and all the words in the card that have a T in them. If you type out a full name like 'Bill', it finds every person named Bill. No one would ever want to find all their contacts named Bill to call them. You could type out the full last name 'Tilman', but there again you are forced to type out a complete name to do a search. It would actually be quicker to scroll down and find it manually. The ability to type a single letter to find the last name (or business name) of a contact you needed to call, was much quicker and easier than having to type out the entire name.

The off button does not switch to 'hibernate' or lock when playing music.

The off button does not switch to 'hibernate' or lock when playing music. I have to hold the off button down
for a prolonged period of time to get it to switch off; have had to resort to holding the off button and the main
button simultaneously to reset but no improvement.

- First try restoring the iPod from backup via iTunes.
- If problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
- If still a problem than you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment a the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

In a playlist, when I select a song toward the bottom it always plays a songe one or two down the list - not the one I selected

In the "Purchased Songs" playlist on the iPhone, when I select a song toward the bottom of the list, a song one or two down the list is actually being played. It's like something got the list index off.
Any help?

I'm in the same boat...so far no one has helped here

Hello there, Faustinamarfo.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some troubleshooting steps for your issue:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Particularly:
Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

I have changed my Iphone once last year. My iphone has being playing up for the best part of 6 months. It Keeps deleting all my music of the phone. it freezes and will not allow me to turn it on or off. if i am in the middle of an app it will randomly shut it down and turn the phone off totally (even if it is charged.) It will not charge properly, it has to be in a exact position to charge and even then go's off and on. I thought this my be my charger but the charger works fine on another phone. it will not allow texts to come through properly and sometimes will not not let me ring people it just freezes and i have to turn it off and on a couple of times in order for it to work. it will not let me update apps and the silent button is not silent it still go's of on ringer.The keyboard will freeze up not allowing me to type anything. It wants me to pay £126.44 for it to be repaire when i have nothing to do with why its not working!

That is correct.
That is the price of a replacement iphone once your iphone is outside of the warranty period

I frequently lose audio when in the middle of a call. I am not certain whether it is a full disconnect or just an audio loss. The person on the other end reports still being able to hear me, however, I suppose they could hear me speaking over another source even if bluetooth disconnected. The loss of audio is always preceded by a quick shrill noise, so I can easily tell when it happens. All I have to do to fix the problem is to select Audio Source on the call screen, temporarily switch audio back to the iPhone, and then switch back to the headset, and then it starts working again.
My Iphone5 was replaced and having same Problem. Only does this when using bluetooth for talking.

I have the exact same issue... I've been using a Jabra Extreme2 and just this weekend, bought a Plantronics Marque2 and today had the same issue, so it's clearly not the headset but the phone or OS.
I might try a restore and see if it helps...

MIDI note input appears 1 octave lower when controller pads are hit

I can't figure this out and I've wasted 5 hours today trying to correct it....
I have recently noticed that midi input from my padKontrol is being transposed down 1 octave (ie I hit an A2, it appears and sounds in my midi applications as A1). This does not occur with midi data that comes direct from my Axiom 61 keyboard; however, it does happen with another device (MV8000) I have that uses the Axiom's Midi IN interface. I hit a pad on the Mv that is assigned to A2, it shows up as A1 in the Logic transport. In Battery it will trigger the cell assigned to A1 instead of A2.
I'm perplexed because it is happening with two different devices on two different interfaces, yet the Axiom doesn't do it on its own ouput, but it does occur on the data received at the midi in on its interface. Doesn't make sense and it occurs both in Logic and Battery. I'm thinking its an AMS/Core Midi issue since hte padKontrol is truly plugnd play (did not have to install drivers), but I dont have clue on how to get AMS to act right. I couldn't find another applicable forum to post this so I am asking here since Logic is the closest subject to my issue.
Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks for the response. I know the two pieces of hardware that are impacted pretty well and they have no setting to transpose outbound midi notes in realtime. I bellieve I found the problem to actually be software related, In Logic, somehow I had the middle C setting set to C3. When I switched it to Roland C4, which I think is the default, the notes I hit on my controller and the MV appeared in the transport as they were programmed. As far as Battery goes, I think it may default to midlle C at C3 (I'll have to check), but I set it to transpose midi input up 1 octave.

Sandbox Security Issue (MIDI Not Working In Applet)

Hi all,
I'm having problems getting javax.sound.midi to work in a java applet. It works fine when I run the applet from within JGrasp, but when I try to run the applet from an HTML file there is no sound. From what info I've found, it seems like my problem has to do with the sandbox security so the applet is not being able to access the computer's sound card, but I still haven't found a solution or a work around to that problem (after about 2 weeks worth of searching). The world of applet security is all new territory for me.
I am running the html file off of my hard drive and I have my test program's class file in the same directory. I have tried both firefox and internet explorer web browsers (and also did the "allow blocked content" in internet explorer).
I have no other sound sources playing or paused that would interfere with the web browser playing (it works in JGrasp and immediately after closing JGrasp completely it doesn't work in the web browser).
Any help help in getting this figured out would be greatly appreciated. An example of an open source MIDI Java applet that I can pick apart to figure out what I need to make this work would be fantastic. Thanks in advance!

Hi ejp, thanks for the reply.
I did some searching for applet signing and I found this:
http://www.brendonwilson.com/projects/signed-java/
"+Developers should be warned that signing alone is not enough to enable their Java applets to access resources normally restricted by the Java sandbox. Although signing provides proof of the integrity of the applet and validation of the authors identity through trust-heirarchies, developers must also make use of the browser-dependent APIs to request permission from the user to perform restricted activities.+"
So am I going to have to do ask permission from each browser in order to get access to the sound card for the MIDI to play or will the MIDI work without that?
Also, I found this tutorial on signing applets. Does this look like a good one?

Why are midi notes in piano roll lower volume when selected with pointer than when in playback?

I'm using Logic X on mac mini. When I select midi notes in piano roll with the pointer, they are at a lower volume than when in playback? I use Logic X on mac mini with Apogee Duet.

Thanks for your help Erik. I found the answer you posted about 30 minutes after posting my question. To me it doesn't answer my question 100%. The reason is that I can't expect to believe that every time someone records midi they have to go through all these extra steps to merge it (and it is not easy to do because they are hidden behind one another) in fact my problem was so unique that other logic users didn't understand why I am having this trouble. SO that brings me to my conclusion, that I have some setting that is keeping this from being a seamless operation and transforming it into a bunch of hoop jumps. Thoughts? Could it have to do with record settings of "merge"? I saw a few different settings there but none make sense to me.
thanks again.

Hi, RomeroSalsa.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are experiencing an issue with the responsiveness of your iPad mini while charging. I would need a little more information on how you are charging the device to provide a better answer. While the steps below are not exactly labeled for this issue, they may help resolve the issue.
If the battery doesn’t charge
If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
