Multiple Speakers goes Wonky when using a wireless bridge

I used to use multiple speakers on iTunes, but lost a lot of connections to the AE due to distance. My WLAN is a D-LINK DI-624.
I put in a DLINK DWL-G710 bridge (it took about 3 hours to get working, not 2 minutes, as they claim).
Now, I can always SEE the AE, and once I have a working connection, it never drops. However, while I can always SEE it, the ability to actually USE it is random. I select the AE it goes into a "connecting to...." mode and then times out.
Sometimes cycling iTunes allows it to connect. Sometimes turning off the Airport card on the laptop.
As a last note, I can't see the AE through Ethernet from my laptop, only when on the wireless. It's no show stopper, as I can run both connections, but it is kind of odd, since it all goes through the DI-624.
Any ideas?

Switched to Airport Extreme as base station, problem solved.

No sound from internal speakers or headphones when using ART Tube interface

Hi - can anyone help with this...
I have no sound fromthe internal speakers or headphones when using my new ART Tube USB interface - I get a nice loud recording level from the ART but cant monitor - in Logic 7.2
Audio hardware interface in logic 7.2 is set to USB Codec - just like the ART manual states
And the SOUND control panel is set to speakers/headphones
But no love...
Any comments welcomed

By default, OSX will only let you have one interface active at any one time - so if you specify the ART as your interface to get sound in, you don't have access to your regular interface to listen to it.
But there is a workaround - open the Audio/MIDI Setup utility, create a new "Aggregate Device", and add both your required audio interfaces to it.
Now, back in Logic, select the aggregate device you created as the audio device, and now all your inputs and outputs from both interfaces are available - the aggregate device acts as one big interface containing both your hardware interfaces.

I am getting a lot of static when using Brookstone wireless headphones and watching movies on the Apple TV. I know it is not headphones, because they work fine when I switch it to cable TV, then the sound is clear with no static. Any suggestions?

Ok so I've been doing more testing. It's all videos on the iTunes store. Anytime I try to download a podcast or stream it or anything it's super slow. To download an episode of Diggnation it tells me over 2 hours to download but the time keeps climbing and I just stop the transfer.
Some people said it's an Open DNS thing? Maybe it is but it's not computer specific and I couldn't find a way to change the DNS settings in my Airport, only on each computer. I tried deleting PLists and restoring my Apple TV and restoring my Airport and nothing is working.
I don't know if it an issue with me, my ISP or Apple. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

It's possible you've got a 'hot corner' set up. If you have and move the mouse to a certain corner of the screen it'll do as you describe. Have a look in System Preferences>Mission Control, bottom left of the window click on the 'Hot Corners' button and see if there is anything in there.

To run a report from command line, when using jdbc-odbc bridge

Hi,
How to run a report from command line, when using jdbc-odbc bridge?
Usually with tns, we do by "rwrun module=<> userid=<user>/<passwd>@tns".
with odbc, we do by "rwrun module=<> userid=<user>/<passwd>@odbc:DSN"
Please specify, what is command line arguments for jdbc-odbc bridge driver?
Environment : Oracle 9i Report Builder on WinNT

Hello Ramanan,
Report Builder : connect JDBC Query in Report Builder is to through Connection Dialog in JDBC Query Editor. User can use a Sign on parameter (can use, default : P_JDBCPDS or can create new) to connect to JDBC Data Source. Connection once made will be mentioned and will be reused through out Reports Builder.
JDBC PDS allows user to connect one or more same or different kind of databases.
While running report through runtime or Server, user can pass the sign on parameter(connection string) value, like any other user parameter.
Syntax for connection string : <username>/<password>@databaseURL . The syntax of database part of connection string depend on the type of JDBC Driver used to connect to Data Source while designing the JDBC Query. databaseURL refer to the location of the database and its format depend on the JDBCPDS river selected in design time while creating the JDBC Query.
rwrun eg :
rwrun report=jdbc_odbc.rdf destype=file desname=output.html desformat=html P_JDBCPDS=scott/tiger@database
Server eg :

Multiple weight font selection when using STL file importing...

I am aware how powerful the manual editor is for DSP4.2, but unfortunately a lot of the editing for my subtitles needs to be done outside of DSP. So I came across a little bit of a problem...
When using a multiple weight font, like Kozuka Mincho Pro (and many others), there are several weights, and some don't even have a "Bold." As an example Light, Thin, Roman, Heavy, Black, etc.
So, using the STL method of importing, how does one specify a font AND weight that does not correspond to a "Bold" version? i.e., setting "Helvetica Neue Bold" does not bring that weight up when specifying "Bold = False," and you can't possibly get "Helvetica Neue Black," under any circumstances. I've attempted to get around this, but all I get is a message saying that the font is not found, and that the default font will be used. Is it even possible to do this?
Hand entering and altering kanji in DSP's manual editor will be a nightmare, if I can't figure a way around this (the STL file is re-loaded dozens of times for placement issues during the project, meaning manual edits would have to be re-done every time).
Hopefully the next version will allow the user to edit the .rtf document with styles and fonts and import them as styled text the way it appears. Multiple fonts per line, so easy integration of various symbol fonts can be dealt with, etc.

Nope, using "$FontName = Helvetica Neue Black" does not work. And you can't even do anything close to that with fonts whose weights are specified as W3, W5, W7, etc.
I found another snippet buried in the new manual that states something to the effect that the name must be spelled exactly as it appears in the "Font Panel." If this is so, then you can only access two weights from any font, just like working with good old-fashioned windows...
So, unless there is a DSP specific trick for the STL format, I'm going to guess it's not possible.
And I cannot re-compile fonts with new names and data, since most of the fonts I will be working with, with this issue, are full Kanji Unicode fonts, and we would have to purchase a font-editor that, IIRC costs about a grand. I think the SysAdmin would frown over both aspects of that... ^_^

IPhoto going black when using the contract tool

my picture goes black when im trying to edit using the contrast tool!
what the heck.. any advise?

Do the other tools work correctly in the edit mode? Try the following: delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. If that doesn't help launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

CS6 - Screen goes black when trying to crop & clone stamp screen goes polorized when using

I run Photoshop CS6 on a windows 7 machine. It has started having two problems:
First, when trying to crop, as soon as I release the mouse button after blocking the frame to crop, the screen goes black - No controls, no picture, nothing. I have to close Photoshop and restart to get back to the photo.
Second, when using clone stamp, as I click to clone the photo switches to odd colors (almost like it was polarized). The color returns to normal when I release the mouse button.
What is going on and what do I do?
Thank you,
Mike Modlin

Update your video card driver from the GPU maker's website, or disable GPU drawing in Photoshop if you cannot update the driver for some reason.

Mid-2012 MBP with 27" Cinema Display SCREEN GOES BLACK WHEN USING USB PERIPHERALS IN DOCK

I haven't been able to find any straightforward answer as to why this is happening and it's becoming one of the most infuriating things in my life, impeding my workflow and costing me unmeasurable time in waiting, rebooting, screwing with cables, etc.
I use my MBP as a DAW for multitracking live audio events to ProTools through a digital console where I work. Here's my gear list that I use every day:
Mid-2012 MBP - Yosemite, 8GB, i7 quad 2.5, mechanical hd
HengeDocks dock for my exact model machine - has set-screw jacks for CinemaDisplay power, Tbolt, FW800, USB, USB, SDcard, headphones, etc
USB wired keyboard
Anker 1x4 USB3.0 hub - I have a TimeMachine 1TB drive, 3TB project backup drive, audio interface and MIDI I/O or PT iLok, depending what I'm working on
Magic Mouse (BlueTooth)
Here's what's happening:
SCENARIO 1 - I insert the CinemaDisplay (cD) power connector and TBolt plugs into the dock, tighten the set screws, close the lid of my MBP (already logged into Yosemite & linked with MagicMouse [mM]) and stick the MBP into the dock... everything comes up on the cD and I can go about my day. At this point, I can plug the USB hub into the back of the cD and the system sees the hub & all peripherals listed just fine.
SCENARIO 2 - Install cD powercon, TBolt connector, USB3 hub, USB keyboard into the dock, close the lid on MBP (again, logged in), insert into dock... cD comes up, looks great for about 15 seconds then goes completely blank. No response from key presses, mouse clicks, threats with a hammer, etc. Then, of course, I have to yank the MBP out of the dock, which hard-disconnects the external drives (backup and TimeMachine... good for them, right?) and causes the MBP to flake, thinking it's still in the dock, then not, then logging me out & requiring a password (not a big deal- I deal with copyrighted stuff, so passwords aren't the issue).
***EVEN IF I DO NOT PLUG THE USB3 HUB INTO THE HENGE DOCK, THE cD STILL GOES BLANK AFTER 15 SEC... IT ONLY SEEMS TO LIKE THE TBOLT AND POWER... NO OTHER PERIPHERALS (fw800, USB, etc)***
It seems like the MBP freaks out when the lid is closed and there are USB/FW peripherals plugged in while using a secondary TBolt display as the main output... seems stupid... if I need a closed-lid dock, the MBP shouldn't care what I have plugged in while the lid is closed. I had the same issues with Mountain Lion & Mavericks and now it's being repeated with Yosemite.
My goal in this exercise is simply to free up the USB jacks on the back of the cD for two reasons - #1) from time to time, I have extra things to plug in and I don't want some massive USB 1x8 hub on my desk... looks stupid; #2) the bottleneck created by plugging in the hub to the back of the cD (another hub via TBolt) almost triples the time required to back up/copy files. I move files from system drive to backup drive & back VERY often due to the nature of my job... speeding up this process would greatly improve my efficiency in the matter. Why would Henge create a dock with all the jacks on it to allow someone to plug into a cD that won't frickin work with said cD? Every other dock I've found makes the user stick the MBP on a slanted, goofy-looking stand and have the lid open or something dumb like that... what I have is the setup I need... just need the USB stuff to work while lid is closed and everything from powercon & cD to USB3 hubs will work without making the cD freak out.
Any ideas out there?

Have now taken the 27" display into the repair shop and after 24 hrs got the phone call - "appears to be nothing wrong with it, will check again on Tuesday and let you know".
I can't seem to find anything on the net describing a similar problem. Everything is working fine right now with the Mac Pro connected to the older 20 inch Cinema Display. In fact, everything seems to be working about a second faster.
I was told by the local retailer that Apple no longer makes the 27 inch LED Cinema Display product and the new display, the "Thunderbolt" will not work with my 13 month old Mac Pro.
***??? In 20 years of owning Mac equipment, this is my first major "uh-oh".

Speakers not working when using external monitor

I'm using an HP Envy laptop and HP Pavilion 25bw external moniter connected via HDMI cable. Using Windows 8.1. When the laptop lid is closed the sound is turned off. If I open the lid I get sound for about 2 seconds then it goes off. If I remove the HDMI cable, the sound comes on. How can I get the sound to work with the 25bw connected and the lid closed?

Samsung 205BW goes blank when using DVI

Hi
I have a G4 Mac Mini. I recently purchased a [url="http://komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=322266"]Samsung 205BW 20in widescreen LCD monitor[/url].
I connected it via the DVI port on my mini with the DVI cable that came with the monitor and it seemed to work great but occasionally the screen will flick black as if there was nothing connected to it. It happens most noticeably when I go from a fullscreen quicktime video to the desktop or if I activate Expose. Also if the Mini goes to sleep and I try to wake it the screen stays black and I either have to reboot or change to using the VGA cable.
The monitor works perfectly if I use a DVI-VGA adaptor and connect to the VGA port on the monitor but I'd prefer to use DVI.....
I read on here of people using SwitchResX to change the settings for the monitor. I downloaded it but I don't really know what to input in the custom settings... perhaps someone here can help?
Here is the DDC file from SwitchResX:

I had the exact problem you report with my core duo Mac Mini connected to a Syncmaster 204B. This problem persisted when I returned the monitor several times to Samsung for replacement 204B's. They eventually upgraded me to a refurbished 204T and the problem disappeared.
It seems to me that Samsung has some real problems with screen blanking when their monitors are hooked by DVI to certain Macintoshes. For anyone contemplating a Samsung monitor, I'd recommend another brand until it's known that this screen blanking problem has been resolved with all Samsung models.

Multiple Folders in DCIM when using PC & USB...

I have an Iphone 4 / 16GB / using 64Bit Windows 7 PC for USB connection...
Note: This did not used to happen in version 4.X... Only after upgrading to 5.X this started happening...
I take lots of photos and videos on a daily bases of my kids, work, etc... when I connect my phone via USB and look into the DCIM folder; all photos and vidoes are being stored into different sub-folders randomly.
Folders look something like:
801FDGH
805FDHT
922GFFF
etc...
Looks like it saves images and videos up to 1000 counter in each folder; when thousand is reached it creates a new folder I'm currently at 5K since upgrade; so 5 diferent folders have been created... All older images and videos I had after upgrade are now split up into multiple folders which some only have 1/2 images...
So I figured this would be uses; just short the folders by date / time stamp... well all folders have the same exact dates / time stamp so when looking for specific photos / vidoes I have to go into every single folder looks for them...
In the past; when I hook my iphone up to the computer, it will only show the "DCIM" folder, then "100APPLE" sub folder. Funny thing; when I hookup my Iphone to my work computer which is running on Windows XP; it shows normal only one 100APPLE...
Any idea how I can fix this? I have tried multple USB cables; this is very annoiging when I have to go hunting for images / vidoes?
Thanks in advance.
Paul

Hi, I think I have the same problem. I have multiple folders as well. I just want all my pictures in one and I guess it has a capacity because it creates a new one after every 12 pictures (in my case)I have a screen shot but cant figure out how to upload it. But my iPhone is 3G not 3Gs

IPad goes crazy when using it while charging

Hi, these couple of days my new iPad started to act weird whenever I'm using it while the charging port is intact with my new iPad. Which means that it is not responding to my touches when the charge port is intact and reacts normally when I pull out the charge port. This is the first time it is happening after using it for a couple of months. The weird reactions are such that i can't type or touch at the correct location as it goes else where. It changes my pages, goes blank enlarge my page and becomes jumpy. It's getting annoying as it is not functioning the way it Shd be whenever the charge port is intact. It goes back to normal when I unplug it. I have actually taken a video on this issue and i can send the video to you via youtube if you require. Please advise. Thanks

Screen goes blank when using Patch tool

The only information I've been able to find on this issue thus far was a post that was written during the Photoshop CS6 beta period at http://forums.adobe.com/message/4285375
I am using the final released Photoshop CS6 software, not beta, and am having the same issue with the Patch tool. I start to drag around an area to make a selecton, and the screen goes blank so that I can't see where I'm making the selection. When I release the mouse, the image appears again. Another problem which may be related is that sometimes when I zoom in, the screen goes blank. Closing Photoshop and re-launching it usually fixes the problem, but is an annoying time-waster. I have the most current update from the Cloud for Photoshop CS6, 13.1.2.X64.
Does anyone know a fix for this?

RAM is 12 GB. I'm not sure which numbers are relevant for VRAM and scratch drive, but this is what I found for video card properties:
