No input devices recognised

hi as a new user of this service and of my mac mini forgive my ignorance... just purchased of ebay ( i wish I had the sence to buy brand new anyways )an under warrenty mac mini.. when i go into systems profiler it says there is no input device recognised.I am unable to create voice oversand the audio in general is faily low...do u think it is a hardware problem or maybe the moniter or is there a specific cable adapter i am missing ..thankyou for your help... am not sure is it is a 10.4.7 can't find description definately a OS X as i mentioed am first time user...cheers

If I just got a used machine I would re-install all the hardware from scratch after running the hardware test cd. Then see if the problem goes away. You will also want to have only keyboard, mouse, and monitor (USB keyboard and mouse) attached. You may have an issue if you have a non-apple keyboard attached and the 'what type of keyboard are you using' dialog didn't pop up.
Good Luck,

Bluetooth Device doesn't Read Input-Device Timeout Configuration

I'm running Bluez-4.99 with a Bluetooth Input Device.
I want the device to disconnect after a Timeout.
There is an IdleTimeout=X setting in /etc/bluetooth/input.conf.
But the device won't timeout and remains connected. So this means the device isn't being appropriately recognised as an Input Device it would seem. Hence the config file isn't being read.
Does anyone have any experience of this to shed some light as to a solution??

Hello Cozz ,
Thank you for your questions.
Have you tried entering the PIN of 0000? This is usually a standard PIN when connecting a Bluetooth device unless that PIN has been changed.
Let us know if this works.

Logic does not see my hd omni as an input device. Any ideas? I've been told to reinstall logicpro - but apple won't let me because it says its already installed on this machine.

I'm having the same issue with a file called IMG_2353.MOV that was imported into iPhoto from my iPhone and also have to manually select the items to import (so the rogue file doesn't error everything out). I've tried using Image Capture to locate/delete the file directly from my iPhone, but even though I can SEE it in Image Capture, I can't delete it or anything. This is VERY frustrating! My friend/Apple guru's only suggestion was to backup my phone then restore it through iTunes. Risky but should do the trick. I'm too scared to try, though!

Hi,
I am trying to Set/Get Volume level of Input device which has only single channel but no master channel, then it fails to retrieve the kAudioDevicePropertyPreferredChannelsForStereo and intermittently kAudioDevicePropertyVolumeScalar for each channel. But this works well for Output device.
So is there any difference in setting/getting the volume of input channels?
I am pasting the downloadable link to sample.

Thanks in advance.

That works but the the game will not be in full screen, it will have an empty strip at the bottom.
I actually found out what's the problem. I traced the stageWidth and stageHeight during resizing event. I found out that when it first resized, the stage width and height were the size with the notification bar. So when I pass the stage into startling, myStarling = new Starling(Game,stage), the stage is in the wrong size. For some reason, I can only get the correct stage width and height after the third resizing event.
So now I need to restart Starling everytime a resizing event happened. It gives me the right result but I am not sure it is a good idea to do that.
And thanks a lot for your time kglad~I really appriciate your help.

How do I set up multiple midi-input devices:WX5 wind & keyboard controllers

Hello,
I'm trying to setup my system to utilize two midi input devices.
1. Novation Controller Keyboard connected through USB
2. WX5 wind controller connected via VL-70 tone module with midi out cable to channel 1 of my Motu midi interface.
As it is currently setup I am able to play both my Wind Controller and MIDI Keyboards fine, but for some reason whenever I finish playing the Wind Controller, the MIDI Keyboard no longer plays sound (it plays midi fine according to the transport, but no sound is created until I load another patch of the EXS).
What am I doing wrong? Should I be switching between inputs in Logic somehow? How can I setup my system to be able to jump back and forth between my midi keyboard and wind controllers? I have done no setup besides cabling the devices in the AudioMidi setup (outside of Logic).
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

This is just a guess, but if the last thing your wind controller puts out is a volume message of zero (as I think it would do as you stop playing the last note) then you would need to send a volume message to the sound module to reset it to the desired volume.

Can I use a MIDI keyboard as an input device for a software instrument?

I have a Casio CTK-2100 that I am currently playing around with in Logic Pro 9. It can record and playback the different instruments fine using MIDI tracks. But I was wondering if it is possible to use the keyboard as an input device for a software instrument instead of the "Step Input Keyboard".
Is it? If so, how do I set it up?

Yes, the terminology can be a bear, many, many years ago when I started using Logic the manuals were written completely by the programmers, while they were quite humorous in places the were also really hard to understand so I learned/realized.. you can't really do anything so wrong it's going to destroy your computer so why not go ahead and experiment. I learned the basics of Logic without a manual, months later when I went back to find some some details I could figure out the manual made a lot more sense.
Logic has been somewhat Appleized but it's not really an Apple program, it was purchased almost as developed as it is now... a lot of the additions a fluff to make it easier to understand for new users while at the same time there are some real improvements.
This is personal opinion: With all of the forums/online tutorials...etc...etc. It seems users are learning (but not understanding) the same things, plus everyone wants to use it right away so nobody takes a deep breath and investigates on their own. Logic is a deep, deep program, while learning don't be afraid to go off on a tangent and explore the program without any other input, it can actually be inspirational. One other thing good about the manual or "Online Help", in looking up a function you will invariably come across a related concept that will provide further insight.
And..... have fun.

How can I remove a Input device from my Mac?

Hello, I would like to know how I can remove a input device from the Sound area in System Preferences. I installed Wiretap Anywhere a sound input program for my Mac and did not realize It was not supported for Moutain Lion. I put the application in the trash and then emptied the trash can. Now whenever I try to start GarageBand or a program like that it crashes my computer. In the Input tab of Sound (System Preferences) It is listed as Wiretap: System Audio.
I would like to remove this from the Input tab so I can use my Mac reguarly. Any Ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks,
Justin

Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
You may have to log out or reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

Remote System Input Device Not Working

Hi,
when i try to connect remote system through RDP, input device (Keyboard & Mouse) in remote system is too slow, it takes more time to respond. Tried to take RDP from different system but same problem.
Looking forward for your response.
Regards
Mohan Rao R

Hi Mohan,
Since the slowness of displaying mouse movement and input from Keyboard does happen to multiple systems, seems like poor performance to me.
You may improve performance by increasing network bandwidth, reducing workload on the Terminal Server, updating video and network card drivers.

My old Intel-Based iMac is no longer recognizing USB wired input devices; it only recognizes Bluetooth. What happened?

My friend's old Intel-Based iMac is no longer recognizing USB-wired input devices (Kensington TrackBall, Logitech Mouse) plugged into any USB slot at the back of the computer.
They were working before and for many years.
All of a sudden, A pop up window came up. IT said no Bluetooth mice could be found. We don't know what set off that window to pop up and look for a WL mouse. It never has before in the 5 or more years my friend has been using this computer.
I supplied a wireless Apple mouse and his is back running again.
But want to know why his USB-input devices (Except his keyboard) are not being recognized. He would prefer to use his Trackpad (Wired), but can't find anything in SYstem PReferences to allow that. The computer only seems to want a Bluetooth input device.
Anyone have an idea what happened and if this can be reversed?
I think he is still running Mac OS X 10.5.8.

Hi Carol, lets try this...
reset FW bus, same goes for USB reset...
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive/devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.

How do I select a midi input device and record midi?

I have several midi input devices connected to my computer. I use them regularly with Digital Performer. I am trying to record a single midi track in Garage Band using an Oxygen 8 keyboard. In the preferences GB says that it sees 7 midi devices. How do I route midi with Garage Band and how do I tell Garage band which midi device to record from? When I create a midi track (well...I think that it is a midi track) and I try to record I do not see any midi notes being recorded.
Searching the help file for midi provided surprisingly little information. I am sure that this is simple stuff...perhaps so simple that I am missing something obvious.

Yes, if the controller sends the right MIDI messages
What do you mean by "the right midi messages"?
I have a virtual instrument (with for example) a delay effect knob. I would like to turn a knob on my midi controller and adjust the delay in the virtual instrument (as I can in just about any other sequencer). Can GarageBand do this, if so, how?

Can't get sound from USB input device

I've got an Alesis iMultiMix 8 USB mixer plugged into my shiny new MacBook Pro (running Leopard). The Mac properly recognizes the USB Audio Codec as a sound input device, and in fact shows a signal being received from the mixer. However, I don't actually hear any sound from the mixer, even with it selected as my input device, and my recording program still records only from the built-in microphone. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help!

Heh... it turns out that there was nothing wrong, at least technically. I got on the phone with Apple and asked if the native OS environment relays inputted audio through the speakers, and was told quite simply, "No." It looks like my PC schools Mac on that account.
As it happens, yes, the programs I was trying to use (Cubase, and I tried Garageband for gits and shiggles) DO have a monitor function to allow the ability, as well as ways to select your input. Cubase, the one I'd been experimenting with, simply has it coached in different (and extremely technical) terms and methods.
So, it looks like my difficulties arose from my lack of experience in a high-level audio program with a steep learning curve, coupled with what I perceive as a basic design shortcoming of Mac. (I think there should at least be an option in the OS environment somewhere.)
Ah well, live and learn. Thank you so much for your assistance.

Using more than one input device at the same time

Is it possible to use more than one input device at the saem time in logic express. For example I have a fire wire input device and a usb input device can I get Express to recognize both of these at once and so have a total of 4 ins which would be great since Im transfering tracks off my ADAT and it would be less track to have to line up.
Thanks

Hi,
yes, it should be possible by creating an aggregate device. Google for it or search this forum. There are many tutorials how to set it up.
Have fun!

IMac doesn't recognize input devices after going to asleep, must reboot

Quite often, my iMac doesn't respond when I attempt to "wake" it using keyboard or mouse. The only way to wake the iMac is to tap the power button. However, when it wakes the mouse cursor is a spinning color wheel and the system does not recognize any input from the keyboard or mouse. I can leave it sitting for quite some time and it still will not recognize my input devices. When this happens I must hold the power button to reboot.
This has been happening for a quite a while now, and it is highly annoying. I can't remember if this was happening before my screen was replaced by Apple a few months ago. It definitely did not happen before upgrading to Lion.
I am hoping you guys can help, otherwise I suppose I will be calling Apple and see if they can figure it out. I am tired of this!
Thanks,
Robyn

I'm having a similar issue. I put my screen to sleep before I go to bed, next day, the computer is frozen, but still on since I can detect heat from the top vent.
I've checked memory for any errors (5 hours of testing) and removed any system extensions. Still gets frozen.
I did attach an old USB mouse just to wake it up when it loses connection to the wirless bluetooth devices. I've been able to wake it up from this condition a few times.
I will keep investigating. My iMac is 1 month old, 27" i5 quad core.

How can I get my Logitech H600 microphone to be recognized in my Sound Preferences as an input device?

Is it better to get seperate audio and video input devices ??
Anyone using these with mac -- I would appreciate anyones experiences on compatability and ease of use.
Anyproblems with recognition in Tiger ??
I only need two channel stereo input

Here's a screenshot (from Iceweasel, but it's the same for Firefox and Chrome).
