MIDI Regions turned shaded white - won't play back now.

Several of my MIDI regions in Logic became a shaded white color and don’t play. However, when clicking on a note in Logic’s piano roll, it plays!!!! Anyone help here?
Here’s what may have led up to it, earlier I was recording MIDI into Logic by playing my keyboard (a Motif ES). I had several tracks laid down - then I did something not too smart and pulled the USB cable out of my Motif ES while Logic was still running. I am fairly sure, but not convinced, that’s when they turned from the standard green to a white shaded color.
After reconnecting the USB cable, I’ve tried rebooting both the Motif and Mac but still not working. Also copied the MIDI regions to a new song - they are still whited out.
Any suggestions here?
(I am using a MOTIF ES keyboard and Logic Pro 8.0.2)

That sounds like the regions got muted. Right-click the region and select Mute/Unmute. In my default keycommand setup it's the same as pressing the 'M' key.

  • MIDI regions won't play back in Logic X

    Suddenly my MIDI regions won't play back. I can hear the notes when when I play on my MIDI controller and when I mark the MIDI notes in the piano roll, but not when play it back in the arrange window. This worked fine the last time I opened the project.
    - I have done a restart of all my equipment, computer and Logic.
    - Nothing is muted - not the track or the regions.
    - The MIDI in/out in the piano roll is ON.
    - The channel strip setting is set to ON.
    - This applies to all instruments.
    - It works as usual for MIDI written using the pen tool, but not for MIDI played on the keyboard.
    - MIDI channel are set to 1 (as seen in the event window).
    - Instrument channel is set to "all".

    Does anyone know what could be wrong? Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    See if this is the problem.
    Is this an imported Logic 9 project file?
    Check the track Inspector settings and see if you have any over the top values for some of the settings (like Delay)

  • PPro CS4 won't play back

    Suddenly video in Premiere Pro CS 4.0.0 for Mac won't play back from source window, program window, or timeline, except for an occasional playback of < 1 second. Scarily this was described by a bunch of users in a thread started two years ago. Only one solution was offered there, which didn't apply to my Mac.
    I was involved in another thread on a related subject in this forum once before but that setup seemed connected to the use of a Dazzle Bridge for capturing. There's no such complication now...it's just not playing any video more than a few frames.
    An editor who can't playback any video is in trouble, and after paying as much as I did for this program and a Mac Pro, it is disheartening. Any ideas out there?

    I appreciate everyone's help but I'm afraid the situation has gone from bad to worse, since Premiere suddenly disappeared.
    Yesterday, following one bit of forum advice, I tried using a separate user account labeled Premiere Pro and the program did play the files--though it wouldn't let me save the project file where it resided. Now, however, the program is nowhere to be found. I have the original installation disk but I have heard of problems arising from reinstallations.
    To answer some other questions, I did try to download the latest update for PPro CS4. I am using PPro for Mac on a Mac Pro with a 10.5.8 OS. I can't say for certain exactly which version I "have" of PPro CS 4 since the update because the program has disappeared and is not turning up in the Finder anywhere, nor can I recall the exact wording of the error message saying I couldn't save my project as edited under the alternate user. The program and system worked fairly problem free for almost four years before the last few days. I use a variety of source footage, including .avi, .mov, .flv, .mp3, .wav.
    One Snow Leopard user has recommended using a Root User account which doesn't seem to apply here. For example, he referred to a "Network Account  User" option that was supposed to appear in Accounts/Login Options but doesn't on my Leopard. Also, as per another user at Trafford College, I revised permissions to select Everyone...however since the program isn't appearing on my computer, there's no telling if that worked.
    Community help is greatly appreciated--especially in light of one forum report of someone who was on the phone with Adobe for hours with this kind of problem but without getting it solved.

  • HDV4 in a .mov file won't play back using any software

    Issue:
    I had 4 DVDs sent to me containing a bunch of .mov files that won't play back in any of the following apps:
    QuickTime 7 Pro (includes Mpeg2 codec from Apple's Web site) - sends me to Apple.com's QT plugins page
    Mpeg Streamclip - loads only some on batch import, but mostly displays white and plays the audio
    HandBrake - Says not a valid source
    VLC Player - error says that HDV4 files cannot be played
    QuickTime Player - says format isn't a format that QT recognizes
    I need to get this into a format usable by FCE.  I'm running the most up-to-date 10.6 Snow Leopard, and the last version of FCE.  How can I do this without losing my current version of iTunes or Final Cut Express?
    Vent:
    As videographers gradually move to hard-drive based cameras, their ability to submit their footage becomes more and more difficult.  As a result, we get DVDs, flash drives, 64 GB memory sticks, and more.  It seems like each one uses a different file format, and every format is proprietary.  Where is a standards committee when you need one?  Where is the open-source format?

  • Video clips won't play back after capture

    I am a long-time user of Premiere Elements, currently using version 9.0. I am capturing video clips from the same videocamera that I've used in previous versions of PE. My video clips won't play back after I capture them. The clip is in my "media" area, but when I try to play it back, the audio plays but the picture remains frozen on the starting image. What is happening?

    It is a Sony Handycam DCR-HC28, mini DV, using a firewire connection.
    Operating System is Windows XP Pro, Service Pack 3, system specs are SATA 2 RAID 1 with dual 1 TB hard drives. 4 GB RAM. As far as how fast my processor is, I looked on my invoice and it says, "Intel Core2 processor Q6600 (2.4 Ghz, 1066 FSB) with Quad Core technology and 8 MB cache, 4 GB DDR2 SDRAM at 800 MHz.
    I defragmented my hard drive before beginning and have 779 GB or 83 percent free space on hard drive.
    I have not placed my video clips on the timeline yet so don't know if there is a red line on top, indicating it hasn't been rendered. I merely wanted to play back my clip to set "in" and "out" points. This has never happened before in my long history of using Premiere Elements. Would prefer not to have to go back to PE 8, as that was a disaster.

  • Logic Pro 8 mutes newly recorded tracks and won't play back until reload...

    Seems like this has happened within the last couple of months. When I record audio in Logic and try to play it back, it won't play the audio. The arrange window shows it is there and the regions do NOT show that they are muted (nor does the channel strip). In essence, it acts as if it is muted, but there are no signs that it is. (I even select the regions and mute then unmute them, and mute and unmute the channel strip, but nothing changes. Still no audio.)
    So I have to close the project and reopen it. When I reopen it, every region in the previous recording session (audio) is greyed out (muted) in the arrange window. Once I select them and unmute them, they play back perfectly.
    This is a very weird situation. Anybody have any ideas about what the issue is?
    Thank you!

    A lot of people have reported this, and it happens to me pretty frequently. Gotta be a known bug, but of course since Apple is always mum about this stuff with absolutely no communication to its customers, we won't know until the next version of Logic is released.

  • Logic 8 won't play back audio recorded at 48 kHz

    So I was recording a small project in Logic 8 on Snow Leopard (10.6.8) the other day when I noticed that audio recorded at 48 kHz wasn't playing back at all. The wave form appeared in the audio region after recording, but the meters on OUT 1-2 weren't lighting up at all. When I switched the project mode to 44.1 kHz, the audio played back fine (except it sounded pitched down and slow). I was in a hurry so I just recorded the whole project at 44.1 kHz instead, even though it should have been 48 kHz.
    Any ideas on what could be causing this?

  • MacBook Pro 2012. Replaced hard drive yesterday by apple. Went home working and now it turns off and won't come back on till I plug it in... Help!

    Have had a ton of issues with my Mac. Went to the apple store in march and they said my processor could be going bad and they basically did nothing. Yesterday I was using my computer put it to sleep. 10 minutes later I opened it up and it completely crashed. Drove 2 hours to get to apple because I am away at school and need my computer for finals. They replaced my hard drive and it was working perfectly fine till today. Now it turns on and works and then shuts off and it won't come back on till I plug it in. It's completely charged and I need it for my classes. I have apple care but I can't keep driving back to apple every day. I have a apple appointment tomorrow but this is ridiculous. Has anyone had any of these issues? What's it going to take for them to replace my computer I can't even live a day without it right now. And by the way. I could not even get any of my data off my old hard drive. So basically nothing is on this computer right now.

    Let them know how this is inconveniencing you.  For a replacement, I believe Apples general rule of thumb is if it comes in for the 3rd time for the same issue they will replace it, but it may vary by store.  It cant hurt to ask for a replacement.

  • My ipad 2 turned off  and won't go back on .

    My ipad 2 turned itself off while watching sky. I assumed the battery went but it was at 50 odd per cent while watching the ipad. I plugged it in to charge it up. It didn't charge for ages and when it did it only remained at 1%. The next day it finally went to 7% but it has turned itself off again and won't go back on. I have reset it on the ipad itself but my iTunes on the laptop doesn't recognise it. It flashes the apple logo as if it is turning on but that's it. Anyone any ideas? Is it completely gone? It didn't fall or drop or anything. Thanks

    Start here and see if you can get iTunes to see the iPad agin. If you can, try restoring the device using iTunes.

  • Subtitles won't play back off disk image or DVD player.

    Hello,
    I am running into problems seeing the sole subtitle track that I have thru a TV DVD Player or a burned disk image. All is fine in DVD SP's Simulator. So the bottom line is that I am doing something wrong, heh?
    My set-up is very straight forward: one main menu page, from which I have a "Subtitle Yes No" set of buttons to respectively enable/disable the subtitle track. The "Yes"/"No" buttons enable/disable the subtitle track by checking/unchecking the "View" box of the Button Inspector as described in the first part of this article: http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/dvd_sp2subtitles.html
    Furthermore, other menu pages are accessed, playing back media from a single track with numerous chapters in it, and stories made out of that track. I was hoping I could refrain from needing to duplicate all stories, e.g. One set of stories with the subtitling track enabled, the other set disabled, but it seems like this is the way to go to make it work.
    Is there another approach to this? I am rather new to DVD SP and am not familiar with Scripts - would a script help this out?
    Thanks in advance for any help you could provide...
    Cheers,
    Alain

    OK so I've answered my own question, thought I'd post it here if ever this can help someone else...
    Duplicating menus and stories toggling on/off the "View" checkbox of my subtitle stream did not work, which is a good thing in a way because it was an ugly scene to work with.
    I guess I was impressed by the "Script" term and refrained from using it, but it turns out to be very easy and simple to use... On my "Subtitle - Yes" button, I targetted a 2-liner script that enables "SPRM 2" (the "Subpicture Stream") with the "On" value of 64 for Stream 1. On my Subtitle - No button, I targetted another 2-liner script that disables "SPRM 2" by assigning it a value of 0.
    I find the DVDSP documentation on scripting a little lame though, I guess I would have liked some more examples to help the scripting "science" sink in...
    Cheers,
    Alain

  • Audio won't play back after recording.

    After recording with my BEHRINGER 1204FX though USB, I can see the audio in its track but it won't play the audio until I unplug my 1204 FX and set my input as built in or something else.
    Why can't I listen to my recordings whithout doing this?

    You need to create an aggregate device.

  • 15-r018dx display turns off and won't come back on

    I have a HP 15-R018DX laptop that I just bought and when I close the display, it turns the display off and won't come back on when I flip it open again.  I've already changed the Power Options so that the "what happens when you close the display" options are all set to "nothing happens".  Despite that, each time I close the display and open it again, the display goes blank and stays blank, though the status LEDs on the left side tell me that the compuer is still on and not hibernated, etc.
    The only way to return the display to normal is to push the power button (I have it set to hibernate when I push the power button) and then turn it back on again after it hibernates.  Then, the display is illuminated again like normal.  No amount of touching the touchpad, it's buttons, or keyboard keys will return the display to normal once it turns off after the lid is closed and re-opened.  Any ideas on what's happening and how to make the display turn on when opening the display again? Thanks in advance!

    I was also facing the same probs..
    bt when i reinstalled OS, nw alomost every part s ok except the brightness part..
    The option to adjust brightness seems unavailable..

  • Burned CD's won't play back

    Hi All -
    Burned several CD's in my on board superdrive on my G5. They play back in my computer, but not in my home stereo and not in my car? Why could this be.
    Apple care says probably because my stereo cd player is old.... but that and my car that's 5 yrs old?

    I had some problems with an "old" CD player that would not play the first track but if i skipped to the second (or third) track, the disc played fine. I could even "rewind" to the start of the disc and all tracks would play. Have you tried using another program to make CDs (Toast for example) or tried a copy from Finder?
    Regards,

  • Burned CDs won't play back

    All of a sudden, the CDs I burn from Itunes do not play back. I thought it was just the CDs purchased from Itunes but it is all music from my library. I export the playlist & it burns but when I go to play it back, nothing. I have tried several stereos . . .
    Thanks for your help.

    kmizzo, 3 things to check first:
    - Are you using CD-Rs? (Avoid CD-RWs since many stereos have trouble with them.)
    - In Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Burning, are you still set for "Audio CD"?
    - Can the burned CDs play back in iTunes on the same computer where you burned them?
    By the way, what do you mean by "export the playlist"?
