Need an expert here please !

Im realy not happy how logic behave with my traveler...
when i playback a track now ( today) I get a beep folowed by an error message saying : error while trying to sync audio with midi. this happened a few times an this gets realy anoying !
I have no problem running DP 5 with the traveler, I have no prob running logic with builtin audio. go figure !
At logic's support an agent sent me a list of task to troubleshoot and none of those worked.
Here is what I got:
The basic issue when this happens is that Logic is either not getting audio data at the sample rate it expects, or the sample rate is fluctuating. Depending on the specific cause, here are some tips for resolving this:
In most cases, Logic can set the sample rate for the audio interface, but sometimes this is not possible. Check the sample rate for your audio audio interface and make sure it matches Logic's setting. If the settings match, try changing Logic's sample rate to a different setting and then back again.
If you have any devices digitally connected to the audio interface, make sure that only one device is set to be the master clock.
If you have combined multiple audio interfaces by configuring an Aggregate Device in Audio/MIDI Setup, make sure that the devices are digitally connected, and that only one device is configured as master clock.
If you are using Word Clock to sync multiple devices, be sure that all Word Clock connections are properly terminated.
Choose Audio > Audio Hardware & Drivers and try increasing the I/O Buffer size.
Try freezing tracks that use plug-ins that put significant load on the processor.
If you are running other software or hardware that can send MTC or MIDI clock, but intend for Logic to be the sync master, turn off Auto Sync In for Logic, to prevent Logic from receiving sync externally. The Auto Sync In setting can be accessed by click-holding the sync button on Logic's Transport.
If you are syncing Logic to another application or device via MTC, make sure that both Logic and the sync master are set to the same format. Make sure that Logic is not receiving both MIDI Clock and MTC. Also, configure the Audio Sync setting to "External or Free" in case the system is resolved to external Word Clock.
If you using a Reactor ensemble that syncs its LFO to the song tempo, try bypassing or removing the plug-in.
If none of the above helps, try switching to Built-in Audio. If this resolves the problem, check for updated drivers for your audio and MIDI interfaces.
many thanks and hopefully I will be able to go on with this session tomorow...

Please clarify: the erroneous To entry is only seen in the list of messages in the Sent folder, but if actually opened all is well, and also all is well for the recipient? This is a totally different problem description than any of us first understood.
If the above is the case, then you only have an index problem. Open the Sent mailbox for this one account only, click on Mailbox in the menubar, and choose Rebuild. Wait patiently for Mail to finish the Rebuild, and be aware that all messages will disappear for a short time, but will appear later.
Keep us posted.

    i think im wrong.. nevermind then..There are a lot of experts here, most of them just
    ignore vague questions with pages of code, stated as
    an emergency, especially when the code is not formated
    using code tags.
    The fact that you expect an answer within 10 minutes
    of your original post is ridiculous on any day, but
    even more so on a Friday afternoon and even more so on
    a holiday.
    Actually..I am wondering where "pinkpawn.jpg" relates to the AskQuestion (paraphrased) "Encourage her to continue smoking"...
    But I'm not curious enough to hurt my already damaged eyesight further...

    hire a team of skilled programmers, put them in a cage and
    toss money at
    them.
    or spend a lot of time learning how to do it yourself.
    or try a free or commercial pre-written application

  • ITunes Match is driving me nuts! I need some help here please!

    iTunes Match hast been stuck in the Step 2 forever, 17286 out of 17287 Songs Checked, it will always get stuck there, and this is everything I've tried so far to solve the issue:
    1) Stopping the process, and turning it back on again.
    2) Updating iTunes Match in the Store Menu.
    3) Signing out of the iTunes Store and signing back in.
    4) Quiting iTunes and restaring the application.
    5) Restarting the Mac.
    6) Converting all the "Waiting" iCloud Status songs to ACC 256 VRB kbps Version, deleting the originals, keeping just the converted ones.
    But nothing seems to work, it will just stay there and do nothing.
    I've managed to Match 13193 songs and Upload another 2964 songs, but once it has stopped uploading and here I am.
    Guys, if something similar has happened to you, and you've figured it out by doing something I haven't tried yet, please let me know, it will be much appreciated.

    Try the dedicated iTunes Match forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes/itunes_match

    You must try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776?tstart=0
    You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
    This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.    A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.
    If the problem persists it will have to be investigated further.

    My computer was sent away for repairs and among other things (it was a very sick computer) it was reformatted. When I got my computer back I downloaded iTunes and plugged my iphone in. It recognised that i had a iphone and an account but I cannot do anything with it on itunes - I cant move the apps around, I cant put music on - nothing. If anyone knows how to fix this little it would be greatly appreciated.
    P.S I am about as far from computer savvy as you can get so step by step instructions would be a bonus lol

    By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with one computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature and cannot be overridden. The itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software:

    Once you've done that, do the following in the order specified:
    1. Disable auto sync when an ipod/iphone is connected under preferences in itunes, which in windows is under the edit menu.
    2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in whatever programs you use for that purpose on your computer. The entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
    3. Connect your phone, itunes running, do not sync at this point.
    4. Store>Authorize this computer.
    5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your itunes library).
    6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
    7. Right click again and select backup.
    8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
    9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
    That's as good as it gets without a backup of your itunes library.

  • My friend wanted to get some of the music off my itunes. when syncing it needed to udate her phone which it did - now all her photos are gone. and the last back up was from when she used my itunes 6  ago. How can we get back her photos :(Please help

    My friend wanted to get some music off my itunes - when syncing it it said she had to update her phone software first - which it did. Now all her photos are gone. When we tried to restore the last back up - the only one was from when she used my itunes 6 months ago which was from her old iphone. So now it has put all her photos from her old phone onto her new iphone and deleted all the new ones. We cannot find her new photos. Please help and there was 100 new pics. Is there any way we can get them back. I already have the program Asoftech - but it doesnt seem to register the iphone only C and D drive. Please help!

    This is called "stealing". You do not have the legal right to give her the music you have in your iTunes library unless you are the copyright holder.
    when syncing it it said she had to update her phone software first
    That's not quite what it said.  Someone should have paid more attention to the great big warning about the possibility of losing data if the phone wasn't backed up.

    It restored the backup that was made on your computer 6 months ago, which did not contain those photos. You're wasting your time trying to find them on the phone. They don't exist.
    Hopefully, your friend syncs her phone to her own computer on a regular basis. She needs to plug her phone into her computer and restore it from her last backup. That will restore it to the state it was in when the backup was made.
    She also needs to get in the habit of extracting the photos on a regular basis, like she would from any other digital camera.

    Only the carrier to which the phone is locked can authorize an unlock. None of the Japanese carriers will do that. Sell the phone and buy one that works in Brazil.

  • REDACT expert in Acrobat 9 Pro. Expert witness please

    I am the plantiff in a court case where the defendent is an attorney.  I am not represented. (do not comment on this please).  I am disputing a bill from the attorney who uses Acorbat 9 to scan documents.  The Court ordered the attorney, who is representing my wife, to redact documents and the attorney used a paralegal to do it by hand.  She is billing me for $1,000, I believe out of spite. Twice the attorney refused to redact documents over a period of months.  Finally the Court ordered her to do it..  I protested  the bill as being unreasonbale and the Court has asked for a live hearing, to hear my case.  I need an expert witness whom I will pay to demonstrate the redact capability to show that the law firm could have performed the redact in seconds, not 8 hours.  Now it is a matter of principle, not the money.  If you dislike attorneys as I do, you may be happy to squash this one.  I live in Colorado Springs, CO.  the court date has not been set yet.  It will probably be in October 2009 Thanks. Mike

    Thanks for the reply,
    I have a little more infomation that I did not include to keep the query short.  This is in response to graffiti.
    1.   The attorney's firm has admitted to using Acrobat pro.  The firm has also admitted that they have not pursued training in using acrobat. In normal business practices training is a cost of doing business, and it is an ethical obligation to their clients.  The same as the education they receive to get their degree or to attend seminars, etc.  Furthermore, Acrobat functions such as redact and bates numbering system were developed by Adobe specifically for the legal profession. If any firm is not using Acrobat or similar software, they should be because it is cost effective for the client.  Using technology is ethical behaviour.  Or they should be charging the same rate that they did when technology wasn't available. The statement that thay may not be using Acrobat is not relevant, the statement is predudical towards the attorney and excuses them for not being ethical.
    2. This may sound biased, and it is, but here goes, attorneys, who are only interested in how much they bill, have no incentive to reducing their billable hours.  They wish to keep the clock running as long as they can.  That is why this case is so very important.  Why should a cash paying client be charged for their unethical behavior?  Law firms are the only profession which is unaccountable for their hours.  It is very hard to prove they are practicing unethical behavior for their clients.  Let's face it, 1 hour of paralegal costs $150, but the Para legal only gets $40 or so of that amount.  It makes sense for the firm to bill for hours despite there being a more cost effective way to perform the task.
    3.  The number of documents may be important, how much is a ton?  I suggest the number of documents is not relevant because a computer can process in microseconds using the find and replace function.  For example, how long does it take you to do a find and replace on your word processor?
    4. The firm is supplying other entities both pdf and hard copies but they first scan everything into their own system using Acrobat, then they print it out in hard copy format to distribute.  Instead, they could scan in, redact, and then print.  What is wrong with that procedure?
    5.  Or.... if they supply pdf files to other entities, they could scan in, redact and provide the pdf file.
    6.   As in any Court case, An expert can do a lot by showing the Court the truth.  In this case, how easy it is make a few keystrokes, and the job is done.
    7. Everyone should realize that the judge knows nothing except facts presented to him. Judges are not experts on information, they only make decisions based on testimony and the law, they will not "realize" anything without testimony from an expert. The fact is that Judges hear testimony, they use common sense, and they decide, but they are not experts, especially in technology..  FYI, My testimony alone is not, in the eyes of the Court, fact based because I am perceived as being prejudiced.  That is why I need an expert.  Let's use other examples.  What about the ford pickup truck that starts on fire all by itself, the Corvair that is unsafe, the collapse of Enron, the ponzi schemes, the McDonald coffee spill, etc?, in these cases, the plaintiff testimony alone would not have been enough.   This statement is not a put down to anyone, and it is not idealistic, and I am not fantasizing or a TV addict, but sometimes it is important to use examples, stupid as they may sound, in the simplest of forms, for example:  Law and Order, Boston legal and other TV series are not novels made for TV, they are based on fact, and the fact is that the expert witness plays a significant role and can be the deciding factor.
    Sorry, please don't take this personally, but I remind everyone... this cup is half full.
    Thanks for your thoughtful responses.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're users here and do not speak for "Apple Inc."
    Some basic printer troubleshooting steps before worrying about a printer driver:
    1. Have you tried turning the printer off and back on?
    2A. Is the printer attached with a cable?
         If yes, have you tried unplugging and re-plugging both ends of the printer cable?
         If that does not help, can you test the printer with another cable?
    2B. If your printer is not connected to the computer with a cable, have you tried restarting your printer (assuming wireless connection)?
         Have you tried restarting your wireless router?
    3. Have you tried restarting your MacBook? (Be sure to save your work first.)
    4. Does the printer have ink? (Doesn't usually generate a 'communications error' though)
    5. Have you updated OS X or the program you're trying to print from recently?

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)
