More songs in Recent menu?

I thought this could be set somewhere but can't find it and the manual didn't help either- is it possible?
Thanks!!
Nigel

I believe this now reverts to the OS default. You can't change this directly without a special tool such as:
http://www.bresink.com/osx/TinkerTool.html
However, you might also like to use a Smart Search in Finder. You can create a custom search (eg last 7 days) with Kind = Logic. Save that to your Saved Searches and it appears in the LH bar of every Finder window.
Create a Smart Search with Command-Option-N and click on the little plus sign next to the Save button to create the additional search criteria.

'open recent' menu - more projects

Hi everybody.
Everytime I launch Logic I browse the 'open recent' menu since I always work on several projects at the same time and seeing their titles and 'chronological order' is helpful to say the least. Back in my logic 5.5 days I had the last 24 songs shown in the menu. With logic 8 express only the last 8 songs are displayed... Any chance to change these settings and get the menu to show, say, 30 or 40 projects? Just titles after all....
thanks,
JC

No luck finding it so far. I've posted a query to the LogicProHelp forum (an excellent resource: http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=142442#142442) -- hopefully I'll get the answer we're hoping for.
I did find this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61328
which tells you how to increase the # of recent items on the Apple (OS) menu. As a poor workaround I've bumped that up to 50.

Can anyone assist me with this issue?

To downgrade, you'll need to download the previous software version here: ATV3 http://appldnld.apple.com/AppleTV/041-4361.20120605.grjot/AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830 _Restore.ipsw
ATV2: http://appldnld.apple.com/AppleTV/041-4362.20120605.t8i4U/AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830 _Restore.ipsw
Next, plug the Apple TV into your computer with a micro-usb cable (most phones today use these) and start up Itunes. It should detect the Apple TV in recovery.
After that, hold down Option on Apple or Alt on Windows and click Restore. This should open a window that allows you to select the software update you want to apply. Select the one you downloaded earlier.
It will then go through the restore process, which takes only a few minutes, and then you will be able to plug the Apple TV back in to your display and set it up again.
I recently ran into a similar issue with a bunch of these things and after restoring them all to the previous software version they are working again.

Can't copy any more songs to my ipod from itunes - says its full but i have deleted heaps off my ipod to make room!

I can not seem to add any more songs to my ipod. Normally i just click and drag songs i have highlighted in my itunes folders up to the Administrators' ipod and it puts a copy there in my ipod. however i keep getting a message saying there is not enough room . . . and so can't add another song. I have deleted heaps of songs off my ipod to ensure sufficient room for these new songs i want to load but i keep failing - why would that be? Is the space not freeing up when i delete exiting music off my ipod for some reason - or any other reason?

Try rebooting your iPod with it still connected to iTunes. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
How exactly are you deleting this tracks from the iPod?

My Library has ten more songs than my iPod. How can I find out which songs are not syncing?

My Library has ten more songs than my iPod. How can I find out which songs are not syncing?
I recently had to purchase a new hard drive. Because the size of my music collection exceeds 140 GB, I stored all of my music on a separate external hard drive. When I exported everything back into my new iTunes library, I found that I had about 200 more songs than I had in the previous library. After deleting most of those extraneous songs, I was able to get my library close to where it was before. However, after syncing to my iPod Classic, I noticed that only 34,853 of the 34,863 loaded. How can I figure out which of those ten songs in my library did not sync to my iPod?

It may be that the 10 songs are unchecked. To find them select songs view.
If there is a column Heading marked with a tick then click on it to sort by this column.
If the Column is not there then View > View Options and select the Checked column which will then display
Check the songs by putting ticks in the empty boxes and resynch. Now those tracks should go over as well

Open Recent Menu failure

There was one reference to my problem in the past but an explanation for how to repair or correct the problem was not included in the posting. As well, I've read back a few hundred discussion items and have not been able to find any other references to this problem. I'll understand if it is uncommon.
For some time now I've been unable to see a list of items in my "Open Recent" menu item. The grey "Clear Menu" item appears but none of the recent items I was working on ever appear in the list. I can't remember when I first saw this but I haven't acted on it until today.
I'm using Pages 3.01 on a MacBook Pro and I usually run Parallels at the same time. But I have this problem whether I'm running other software or not.
Now I do rely on CopyPaste to be running when I startup and I have Default Folder set to load on startup because I rely on these so much during my writing. But they are separate applications and don't patch the system, really. So I don't suspect either of these being a culprit.
I've trashed preferences found in the user library without solving the problem.
I'm not a power use of my MacBook Pro so I don't know much about where to see more. Anyone who might be able to either identify my problem and point me to a solution or examine my problem with me and help me diagnose it for other readers would be able to reply to this.
I'm still in 10.4.11 so it's not a Leopard thing yet. Everything else I do on this Mac is pretty normal (except for a flakey copy and paste with Photoshop Elements).
Why this would have worked some time ago and fail in recent months is part of the mystery as well. And for those who might suggest I send in a comment to Apple -- I already have (with little hope for their response).
If I'm the only person having this problem I'll accept the silence.
Cheers

I have to give special thanks for this to the MacFixit "Be Your Own Mac Troubleshooting Guru" and especially pages 26 and 27.
Essentially the guide states you can drag your User Library folder to the desktop and disable everything at once. Then log out and log back in.
Then launch Pages and find the Recent Menu is working fine.
Then you put back folder after folder until it breaks. I went through all of them and came down to the last two (Application Support and Preferences) with no problem. I then put the Support folder in and expected it to fail - but it did not. So after one more log out and log in I was down to going through all the Preferences files and folders.
Most of them were easy but there were a few which already existed and I did not replace those (about 16 files). None of the ones I left out had anything to do with iWork or Pages (and that's what people were suggesting here).
So, now I have a fully working system with no real changes to the way I had it before. Now there was ONE thing which did not work the way it did before. My two finger hold and click usually brought up the contextual menu (a right click substitute) and this didn't work any more.
I went to System Preferences and turned it back on (Keyboard and Mouse) and things are still working fine with Pages. So, I think I'll say the problem is solved and thank everyone for their support through this process.
The making of a new user was the clue and the use of MacFixit's diagnostic steps helped me work this out over about 2 hours. I know many of you might wonder why I didn't just move everything over to a new user - but those who know will understand the process I used was pretty much the same. Any problem I had in the Preferences folder of the Library would have copied across and I would not have been the wiser.
For Yvan: Yes, I'm waiting with Leopard. I have a couple of utilities which I need in my work and they haven't released Leopard updates yet. When those are in the bag I'll be going up to Leopard.
Thanks everyone. Now I have a process I can use for future problems if I have them in some other area.
Cheers.

Smart Strings "More..." menu not working for me

iPhone 4
iOS 6
Newest GarageBand
I manually type in a Smart Strings part. Wanting to change a note to pizzicato, I tap it and then tap "More..." as I have in previous versions. Instead of giving options for pizzicato, instrument change, etc. like it used to, the whole menu just disappears and I'm left looking at the MIDI roll again. I've played old songs that I made in previous versions of GarageBand and they play the notes pizzicato but the same thing occurs with the "More..." menu when I tap a note.
I've submitted a bug report, does anybody here have any ideas what's causing this or how I might fix it? If you can't tell, I like to use pizzicato a lot.
Thanks for any help.

i don't have my mac flash cc activated this weekend so i can't test there.

.psd document will not open from Recent menu?

I have a Photoshop project saved on my computer that A) will not show up from within Photoshop and B) when I do attempt to open it using the Apple Recent menu, nothing happens.
Any ideas? Thanks so much!

Hi akillian24;
Since Photoshop is an Adobe product, you will probably find more help if you ask there.

I have about 800 more songs on my nano than itunes, due to a crash. How can I get the songs onto itunes from the ipod, or at least get the new music ive gotten since the crash onto my ipod without deleting all the other songs when it syncs?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If you have failed to bakup, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

I have more songs than I can put on Ipod. How can I un-click all songs in an album without doing each singly, to reduce space? Thanks

Why not try syncing a smart playlist that updates automatically every time you sync your iPod?
Try something like this:
1. Pull down File > New Smart Playlist;
2. Playlist IS Music; click the plus button;
3. Last Played IS NOT in the last 90 days;
4. Select the option to Limit to xxx items selected by Random and click OK.
Name the playlist that is created something distinctive then sync you iPod with that. It will automatically update based on the last played dates of a tune and you'll always have fresh content on your iPod. Modify the playlist as needed to make it give you the results you want.
Regards,
Michael

I have an iphone 4s ios 7.0.2. Before updating to the latest ios i had songs in my iphone. after updating also it was there, but when i wanted to put more songs through itunes in my iphone , i synced with itunes first with my iphone. Then i pressed sync all songs and then itunes said that all songs had been synced. But in my iphone it showed me that there is no songs at all and i have to download it from itunes store. The songs which i had also went from my iphone. I dont know what happened. I updated my itunes to the latest one 11.1.1. But still no change . Can anyone tell me what is the problem. What to do?

Hello babichanjacob
Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?

I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?

If I go from 'Devices' to Summary and then Music, I only get one option-Sync Music,There is a box on this page but the options within it are grayed out. If I tick the Sync Music option I get this message-
'Are you sure you want to remove existing music,films,ect, from this ipod and sync with this itunes library?
'Music synced to (my ipods name) from other itunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this itunes library' I have only ever used itunes on this PC and the 'Manually manage music and videos' is ticked but
that must be a default setting as I haven't ticked it.

I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.
