Motu Ultralite not working in PowerMac G5 any OS

I have a Motu Ultralite that is recognized in Audio Desk and Reason but does not produce any sound. When used as an output for iTunes it produces sound for about 1:45 then turnes to noise. I have tried most OS's from 10.4.1 to 10.4.10 with pretty much the same resuolts. I am using the latest Motu drivers. The unit works on other Macs but not mine. I have a PCI graphics card not the AGP one that comes with the MAC. I am using 4.5 gigs of RAM. The firewire ports on the computer seem to be ok when moving data to and from an external drive. Motu support could was no help at all. I am posting here because I hope to reach readers who use audio interface cards. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Power Mac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.10) 4 G RAM, PCI Video Card

Hey, this is a tricky one. May I suggest trying the following:
1. Disconnect all other Firewire devices
- to remove the possibility of something causing a conflict
2. Try a different Firewire cable
- may be subtly damaged
3. If possible try another Firewire audio interface
- will prove that your Mac and it's Firewire ports are ok
- it's possible that when you're using a hard drive that if there are read/write errors OS X is doing error correction so you're not seeing any noticeable difference in performance, whereas with audio, it's a continuous stream and errors that are occurring you're hearing as noise
4. If possible try a different Ultralite
- will prove that your current ultralite is faulty
Basically, try to isolate whether the issue is with the Ultralite or your Mac.

MBP and motu ultralite NOT working. Firewire.

Hi, I bought a macbook pro 2.5 with a HD of 200G 7200rpm and I am trying to connect the motu Ultralite. I tried this audio interface in other laptops and desktops (PC) and it does work with no problem.
I am running Leopard 10.5.2 and the motu does not behaves quite ok.
Also tried with windows XP with bootcamp, and it does not work at all. It is recognized, but when I open the properties and load the ASIO drivers it says the MOTO has been disconnected and suggests to turn it on again (which obviously is already connected and powered on)
I read, this can be related to firewire port. Anybody with similar problem?
Any help or suggestion would be much appreciated.
Thank you all.

I've had problems with my MOTU Traveler and OSX ever since purchasing my MBP.
A factory reset of the audio device has been motu's fix which works for a little while but
the problem of the device not being recognized always returns.
I've found that if i unplug then re-insert the firewire cable while the audio device is powered on it
is sometimes recognized but not always.
I do not experience this problem when using DAW software which addresses the hardware directly,
only when using software that relies on the system to address the audio hardware ie; (quicktime, itunes... you get the idea). Works fine on my powerbook G4.
I've read these issues may be related to apples choice of firewire chipset in the new machines?

IMessage is not working in IOS 7 , Any workaround

iMessage is not working in IOS 7 , Any workaround

Yap, sad but true...
The most annoying problem, besides iMessage, is the keyboard, it's horrible on my iPhone 4 in Safari. Some on some formulars the keyboard is so **** slow that I had to stop typing after 2nd word.
But I could fix the iMessage Problem, first turn off iMsg, then you have to backup your Phone on your PC/Mac in iTunes, turn off auto sync when done and pull the phone off. Then go to the Phone settings and reset everything, then choose "set up as new device".
When done go to settings and activate iMsg and wait for activation, it will work! After you're done plug the phone back to your PC/Mac and restore from the Backup you made before. Now go to phone settings again and check if iMsg is on, if not (as it was in my case), turn it on and activate again, it will work now!!!
Attention: Apps and Music have to be resynced or downloaded after this, they are NOT part of the Backup.
This was what Apple tech. support told me to do and it worked fine.

Finder "Open with" not working on 10.6 any more

Hi,
I am experiencing some issues with finders "open with" > Change all function.
It does not work for .doc files any more since Snow Leopard. The "Change all" button is disabled. I can change to pages via the drop down menu but that's it.
The button is working fine for other files types (eg. PDF). Is there any solution or explanation for this yet?
How could I manually tell SL to open all .doc files with pages in order to avoid the bug?
Thanks in advance!

Okay, I get it and it works.
- Select file & select "Get Info" from right-click menu
- Change the default Application *for this file*
- *Close "Get Info" dialog*
- Select file & select "Get Info" from right-click menu
- Now the "change for all" button is active
The "change all" button was active instantly in previous OS X versions iirc. Anyway, it works this way.

Option of 'Restore Last Session' not working. Is there any option to repair the 'Mozilla Firefox' without loosing History?

Option of 'Restore Last Session' not working. Is there any option to repair the 'Mozilla Firefox' without loosing History?

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?

I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?

On my laptop when I open up a pdf file and do a search for a particular
text phrase it prompts me to run a character analysis. Whereas on my mac
mini, when I try to engage the same process it just says it couldn't find
the phrase and doesn't even try and run a character analysis. I tried
clicking on the tool bar and the recognize text tab but nothing there seems
to do anything.
In trying to figure out the issue on my own I noticed one thing. I run a
small law firm in St. Louis and I scan in all my files to which are
subsequently emailed to my outlook account where I will save them as pdf's
to their respective folders. On my laptop when I open up an email from my
scanner I see the image of a acrobat document next to the attachment
paperclip symbol. However, when I open up the same email on my mac mini I
notice instead of an acrobat file image it shows a Preview file image (the
program used to open up pdf's before I installed acrobat).
Hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Jonathan McAllister

MOTU Ultralite Not Recognized in New MBP

Greetings!
I have a new MBP, with an original Motu Ultralite. I loaded the latest MOTU drivers for OS 10.6. I can't get the MBP to see the device anywhere. I tried a reinstall, and still nothing. Never had a problem before on previous system...
I have the MOTU plugged into my external drive, and then into my Firewire 800 on the MBP. Others do it this way, with no problem, and power doesn't seem to be the issue. I also plugged the MOTU directly into the MBP, with no change. I have checked System Profiler, and Audi/MIDI setup. I've tried everything I know how to do, to no avail...
Could it be the new drivers? I know the previous drivers for 10.3 worked fine. Do I need to uninstall the new drivers and reinstall the old drivers? Is there something I"m missing? I've been researching this for hours, with no fix...
Thanks in advance for any guidance...
Blessings,

Just an update...
I just turned on my computer and the MOTU suddenly mounted! While I don't have any profound explanation, I discovered my hard drive has to be powered on, in order for the MBP to find the MOTU. If I turn off the hard drive, the MOTU doesn't mount, but it will still power up. I had tried both the MOTU and hard drive in this same configuration earlier in the day, with no success...
While I wasn't initially using power to the hard drive or the MOTU, (running both bus-powered) I tried plugging in the power to the MOTU and shutting off the hard drive to see what would happen. The MOTU wouldn't mount.
It appears the hard drive needs to be on to pass along whatever signal mounts the MOTU. Yet, the MOTU powers up just fine without the hard drive being turned on. Seems to me it should mount if it powers up...
It would seem I only have a few options:
1. Leave the hard drive on when using the MOTU. (Not practical)
2. Purchase a firewire ExpressCard (which I believe requires its own power?)
3. Plug the MOTU into the MBP first, and daisy chain the hard drive to the second port in the MOTU. This would limit my FW 800 hard drive use to FW 400.
Any thoughts or other workarounds?
Blessings,
