Garageband stopped recognizing certain midi keys, but midi works fine with a PC!???

Garageband no longer recognizes middle C, low B, and everything to the right of high C on my M-Audio keyrig 49 midi controller. It does not appear to be a problem with the keyboard, though, because it works just fine plugged into my boyfriend's PC using his music software (I forget which program he uses). And it's happened in stages, first the high notes stopped working one day, then middle C and low B stopped working in the middle of recording a song!!! So frustrating! What can I do to fix this??

However, when I look at the Garageband preferences now it shows I could use the Built-In Input and the Built-In Output settings, but there is no longer a setting for USB despite that Garageband recognizes my MIDI. What's going on here?
These options are for the audio input, for midi you don't get a selection.
It is weird that your computer detects a midi device when none is connected!
When you're playing on your keyboard and have a software instrument track activated - does the little blue light in the corner of the LED field light up when you strike a key?

Does your mic work in System Preferences?
System Preferences > Sound > Input
There is an Input Level meter that should light up when you talk. Just to make sure your mic and Mac are working.
Which mic are you using? Are you using the built in mic on an Apple Display? I have Apple's LED display and every time I use Facetime, as in place or take a call, the mic input volume gets reset to a level so low, people can't hear me. I have to manually raise the mic volume back to where I had set it. When I end the call, Facetime resets the volume back to where I set it. If I don't reset the mic volume level on each and every call, people can't hear me.
I called Apple on this. They downloaded a log file tool to my Mac and took some logs. Then they called me back and said this works as designed. Incredible.
So, if you are using Apple's LED display, this may be your problem. Note that the mic volume level gets set low and reset back only during a call. If you check it before a call and then after a call, it looks fine as if nothing changed. Open up the Sound prefernces and watch it get reset in real time.

Hi Dude, I ve seen all the threads from first to last even am gonna geta iphone 4s from Thailand. Would like to know which sim will be working fine in chennai as you all are using d phone for past many days??? Is it advisable to buy a phone

Hi Dude,
I ve seen all the threads from first to last even am gonna get a iphone 4s from Thailand. Would like to know which sim will be working fine in chennai as you all are using d phone for past many days??? Is it advisable to buy a phone from abroad.

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

No it doesn't. Sometimes it make a sound that it should when connecting but that is it. Never actually charges or syncs. And it is a brand new cord.

If you go to Disk Utility, can you see the drive on the left hand side? If not, then the drive is dead. You'll have to buy a new drive.

I have iRealbook on my iPhone, how do I get it to my computer? Do I have to buy it again? I can't seem to find how to make the transfer from the app store.

iOS applications don't run on Macs.

I can't get my iMac to accept a CD/DVD disc. It acts like there's already one in there but there isn't. Tried the help menu but nothing worked.Suggestions?

Thank you, Allen. My iMac is a 2009. I can't shine a light into the disc drive slot as it has a built in whisker cover that prevents anything from getting in. It will accept a disc half way in before the disc reaches a springy obstruction.
About 3 weeks ago, the computer locked up so I inserted the OS disc and reinstalled it. In general, the computer works just like it used to but we've had a few quirks appear; for example, this is one of them. Also, we can't figure out how to keep from having to sign-in when we turn the computer on. Also, we can't access our one on-line account anymore. Very strange.
