Notes, taking notes, graphing, audio recordings, etc

Is there a good to great note taking app for mac os? Something that makes it easy to do quick graphs and record audio and add text notes with the keyboard... dream app for a student is what I'm after, and, no, Curio and Jarnal are not it. Thanks.

The Windows version of Office 2004 has this application called One Note. On the MacOSX Office 2004, you can open Word and switch to View / Notebook Layout, which is similar in functionality to One Note.
Then, there are apps from www.omnigroup.com They were once bundled with Tiger on Powerbooks (at least).
I hope this help.

  • I'm going to be a senior this year and my school is switching over to the iPad for classroom activities. Which iPad is the best for taking notes, researching, studying, reading, etc?

    I Recommend the iPad Mini Retina, it's not to big, and not to small. It has the speed of the iPad Air due to it having the same 64 Bit chips. ( And it's a lot cheaper!!) I have one myself and it's perfect for my school work!

  • QT Pro: Making audio recordings not in .mov format

    Why does the recording feature in QT Pro just make audio recordings in .mov format? I then have to extract the soundtrack ( flatten is what is says during this procedure ) and even though it was recorded in AAC, it needs to be converted to AAC in iTunes a redundant second time.
    Is there a simpler way to make AAC recordings in QT Pro and then just import them into iTunes?
    My audio recording setting in QT Pro is set to H.264. I am picking "new audio recording" not video recording.
    Thanks

    Perhaps an alternative program...

  • My problem is the graphs of my audio recordings in the arrange window are so small it makes accurate editing very difficult.

    My problem is the graphs of my audio recordings in the arrange window are so small it makes accurate editing very difficult.

    Try the waveform zoom slider. Recording louder just to get a better visible waveform would be, well, silly.
    From the manual: (click on links to see pics)
    To change the zoom level using the Waveform Zoom button 
    Click-hold the Waveform Zoom button. A slider appears.
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/usermanual/Art/S01/S0185_WaveZoom.png
    Drag the slider. As you do, the waveform shown in all audio regions, and in the Beat Mapping track, is increased or decreased in size.

  • Telepresence client 4.8, No incoming video / Not receiving audio on a Mac - Windows is OK

    Hi, I'm using the Jabber Telepresence client v4.8.8.18390 on a Mac - Yosemite 10.10.2
    It used to work fine, but something has changed and now I can't receive video or audio. The call seems to initiate, local camera is in use, but then get the messages "no incoming video" and "not receiving audio", as shown in the attachment. 
    It works fine on my windows client, v4.8, so I know my account is fine, and i'm using the same settings to connect to the server - so this seems to be a local issue. 
    If i downgrade to v 4.4 then I can receive audio, but still no video, and 4.6 or 4.8 are both broken in the same way.
    I think this may be something along the lines of conflicting / bad codecs installed on the mac - but can't find a way of tracking that down. 
    Any help would be hugely appreciated.
    Thanks
    Sam  

    Does your camera/audio/mic work with other software such as Skype or YouTube, etc?  Are you sure this is a Jabber issue versus a PC problem?
    Have you tried the newer 4.7 client?
    I see Windows 8 is supported;

  • Logic will not playback audio unless movie is visible?

    Hello everyone,
    I've scored many movies in Logic and except for running out of horsepower have never had a problem like this...until today.
    The problem: Whenever I dont have the movie visible, ALL audio stops!! Its not just this new project, but all past projects as well (all of which use to work fine!). For example, I can play back the movie and its audio tracks visible. But then when I close the movie, the sound will just stop. It will not return until I open the movie again. What this means is I cannot switch to my "matrix only" or my "mixer only" screensets and hear whats going on!! Its very odd!!
    I tried "OPTION-click on File -> New" to force Logic to create a fresh default song and I still get the same behavior; all audio will stop when movie is closed and will only play again if I re-opened the movie file.
    In December I reinstalled my entire system software, logic, sample libs, etc. in the hopes of making logic more stable. I recently rebuilt my template from scratch with the same hopes. I haven't used logic on a project in about 3 months. I dont understand why I seem to have so many problems, as I've yet to have a problem-free project in all my time using Logic. (sad but true). Any ideas on why this is happening? Has anyone experienced this particular problem?
    I'm going to continue troubleshooting this problem (trashing audio prefs, etc.) Will post my findings. Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.
    Message was edited by: Jonathan Timpe

    ok, I found the problem. I forgot in my new aggregate audio setup, one device only works at 44.1k, while the project is in 48k. Chalk this one up to user error. Logic, will you every forgive me! You know I still love you...right?

  • Why does my ipod not play audio?

    my ipod touch 4th gen 16gb will not play audio unless it has headphones in. it is second hadn but the seller said nothing about this and the ipod is in perfect condition except for this. i have tried putting the headphones in and out and resetting the ipod, neither of these made any difference. when i play a video or a track without headphones in, the volume slider disappears as if there is no audio file. alarms and facetime sound effects etc still play so i dont think the speakers are broken. please help.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 Not Responding / Not Opening / Audio Mixer Issue?

    Please assist.
    I have been editing 300GB of 10bit AVI footage with no problems. Recently I have had to record additional voice over which I have done through the audio card using Premier Pros Audio mixer and it appears this is where the problem may be occurring.
    The Project has been set up onto three drives:
    I am running the .prproj / project files off one 2TB drive and the video & audio assets on an additional 2TD drive, premier pro & the operating system is on a separate drive. I have no anti virus running or any other resource hungry programs.
    PC specs:
    Intel Core i7 2600 3.4Ghz Quad
    16GB RAM
    Nvidia GTX 560 1GB
    I resave the project after each change and it appears that the edits that have the audio recordings eg: 5 different projects will not open. The projects that don't have the audio recordings open with no problems.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or come across similar problems when using the Audio Mixer?

    Have you installed the most recent updates?

  • My videos on iPhone 4 do not have audio but my voice memos do. Help!!

    My recorded videos do not have audio.  My voice memos have no issues. Anyone have suggestions??

    make sure that you are not covering the mic on the bottom of the device and top (opposite of lock button) when recording a video.
    Other than that, back up in iTunes and RESTORE firware for a clean slated version of the ISPW

  • TS4062 I can't sync music on my computer to my ipod touch; the ipod shows up under Devices in itunes but does not show buttons (Summary etc.) when I click on it. Suggestions?

    I can't sync music already on my computer to my ipod touch; the ipod shows up under Devices in itunes but does not show buttons (Summary etc.) when I click on it. I've read through all the Help tutorials but none of them say what to do if the sync options don't pop up when you highlight the device.  I've already spent way too much time trying to figure this out and it's driving me crazy!  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    This is correct.  It will not show in finder.  It is not an external storage device.
    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  Open itunes connect ipod, do not sync, click File>Transfer Purchases

I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that.  Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

  • I have a mid 2009 Macbook Pro and i know the Mini-display port does not support audio out but does it support HDMI out? or do i have to buy a Mini-display to DVI and then a DVI to HDMI adapters?

    I have a mid 2009 Macbook Pro and i know the Mini-display port does not support audio out but does it support HDMI out? or do i have to buy a Mini-display to DVI and then a DVI to HDMI adapters?

    Run MDP to HDMI for picture. Use a cable like this to run sound from your audio out on your Mac to your TV's audio in.  That's about all  you can do.

  • Importing .mov or .mpg and not getting audio in FCP

    I have both an Mpeg (as well as an .mov ) file that play in QuickTime Player beautifully with audio. When I import it into FCP I only get the video. This has been happening with many files that clients are bringing in and have not figured out a way to get the audio track into Final Cut. Any suggestions? Why will it accept the video, but not the audio? Thank you for your assistance in advance!!
    BR

    Hi,
    Mpeg is not an editing format.
    You need to demux video and audio and convert the original Mpeg in a FCP friendly format like DV or QT.
    Your solution is likely MPEGstreamclip. Here it is:

  • When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

    When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

    I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.
