Problems with indexing and Apple Loops on External Drive

Ok, so I've recently moved my entire "Apple Loops" folder to an external drive and created an alias pointing back the "Audio" folder where the apple loops folder used to reside. The problem is when I bring up the loop browser, it's not finding the loops. Do I need to move the Apple Loops Index to the external hard drive as well? I assumed by creating an alias, it would just go to my external drive.

Someone had said that it's better to use the alias for the apple loops since Logic will always go to where it expects the loops to be first. Which I'm assuming would be faster. But, if it truly doesn't matter and I should just drop all my apple loop folders one by one from my external hard drive, then I"ll do that. Anyone heard about what's faster....alias Vs. external HD direct path?

Problems with Indexing and Classification

hi KM Gurus,
We faced some problems in Indexing and Taxonomies for which I would like to know the solution/reason.
(1) We tried providing query based classification in which the query condition which is based on the "Content" alone worked for us. Whenever we tried specifying conditions based on "file extension" or "title", it didn't work out. Did that work for anybody else?
(2) Also we are not able to get any proper info about the various options that are available while creating a query based classification. For example, there are two options like "title" and "string title". But we donno the difference b/n the two. If it works out we can find the difference. But it is not working too. So we are not able to find the difference between the two.
(3) And I tried setting the crawler parameter of my own instead of the standard crawler. But the index was found to be inactive when i set that to my crawler and it worked fine with the standard crawler. I am not able to make it active. Any clues behind this?
Expect all your guidance and help.
best regds,
alagammai.

Hi Alagammai,
concerning issues (1) and (2).
Normally the mentioned properties are displayed as 'Name' and 'Namme as String'.
These two properties are(in most cases) the title of the document.
One is indexed in 'Text' format. The other one in 'String' format. That results into different opportunities within the query based classification.
'Displayname as String' can be used to sort documents alphabetically: A, B, ... into categories.
'Displayname' allows you to do a linguistic scan on document titles.
To separate file types I would use the property MIME-Type.
But you may try to define a query *.doc for the property 'Name as String'.

Move Apple Loops to External Drive?

hello
i was looking at all the files on my drive, and i noticed that so much space is taken up by the apple loop .caf files. Is there a way to move these to a folder on my external drive but still have logic know where to find them?
thanks

This is what I did to move the 30+gb of samples that come with logic:
1. On your external hard drive, create 2 folders: Garage Band Samples, Logic Samples.
2. Goto MacIntosh HD> Library> Application Support> Garage Band> Instrument Library> Sampler> Sampler Files. Take the entire folder for "Sample Files", and copy this to the "Garage Band Samples" folder on your external drive.
3. Goto MacIntosh HD> Library> Application Support> Logic> EXS Samples. Take the entire folder for "EXS Samples", and copy this to the "Logic Samples" folder on your external drive.
4. Open up 2 windows on your screen, one window of the external drive with the Garage Band Sample window, and one of your laptop's garage band sampler files. These windows should contain the exact same folders, starting with the "2-Step Remix and ending with "Xylophone".
5. Here comes the extemely tedious part. You'll do the following, for every folder here... For Example....
1. Under the folder on the external drive, select every .aif file in the "2-step Remix" folder and make an alias' of them.
2. Under the folder on the Macintosh HD, trash all the .aif files in the "2-step Remix" folder.
3. Under the folder on the external drive, drag every alias file into the "2-Step Remix" folder on the Macintosh HD.
4. This is the process you need to follow for every folder under the Garage Band and Logic samples folders......yes it is tedious.....

Migration assistant with photos and music on an external drive

I have an I 7 ready to turn on, I will be transferring from a mac mini. I have 100 gigs of msic and about 80 gigs of photos that my mini access for I tunes and i photo. Will the migration assistant copy the photos and music from the external hard drive? My guess is it will but I wanted to hear it from someone else.
Thank you
Joe

I just move my iphoto's from a iMac to a Mini. I just used the import in the iphoto application, and it worked fine. I found migration to much work to use. Still have not moved itunes yet, but it doesn't have the import like iphoto, has export, so have not looked into the move yet.

you have a different issue then, sounds like your appletv cannot get access to the internet.

there's no point emailing apple, as the issue is most likely internal to your network and not a fault with the appletv.

that would have no affect on the appletv being able to access the internet.

Unusual Problem with Yahoo and Apple Mail

I hope it doesn't turn out that the user is the thing that is "unusual."
Background:
Devices: MBP, iPad, iPhone, iMac
Mail accounts: Gmail, mobileme, Yahoo
MBP settings: uses "default ports", SSL, and user name and password - Advanced Tab: Port 993 and SSL
iPad/iPhone settings: SMTP server settings - grayed-out - with SSL checked and Port 465
As of last night, I found four messages that were stuck in my Sent box, with the spinning gear that would not stop. This only happens when using my Yahoo account, and it only happens when sent from my MPB. It is also only related to outbound messages.
Now for the part that has me perplexed. My password for Yahoo (web), is the same as the password on my MBP (Apple Mail). The passwords that I have on the iPhone and iPad, are the same for both, but they're different than the password for the previous two that I mentioned. When I changed the password on my MBP to match the one that's on my mobile devices, it came up with an error for an incorrect username or password.
How can I have different passwords and still have mail working? What am I missing? Also - more to the point of my issue, can anyone offer some suggestions as to why the outbound side of Apple Mail, is not working for Yahoo?
Thank you.

Sorry...it's too bad you can't delete questions... Problem solved - port number needed to be changed, and the password was deleted for some reason. I still don't know why I see two different passwords for the same account.... Thanks for looking.

Problem with iTunes and Apple TV

I downloaded the latest iTunes 11.1.1 (11) and my Apple TV icon has disappeared and my MacBook Pro will no longer sync to my Apple TV.
Thank you for your assistance.

yes, me too. I went to play my stuff tonight - and blam, Apple TV icon is not there. Nothing I do brings it back. Reset everything - turn it all off and on. Nada. This is really annoying.

Mountain Lion fails to install saying it cannot create the recovery; I had a similar problem with Lion and the Apple Store that helped me resolve it gave me an installable version of Mountain Lion on a flash drive for my inconvenience....

Mountain Lion fails to install saying it cannot create the recovery; I had a similar problem with Lion and the Apple Store that helped me resolve it gave me an installable version of Mountain Lion on a flash drive for my inconvenience....is there some trick I am missing or do I need to make an appointment with a genius...

I have the MacIntosh volume and the Boot Camp partition only. I know that when I installed Lion, I had to go through a whole back-up and recovery of Windows and then re-format the drive.
The tech at the Apple Store had a previous life as a MSCE and was very helpful. I believe he even said that I should not have htis problem with Mountain Lion which is why they gave me the flash with it onboard. I was in the process of starting a new job when I went to Lion, so I have waited to do this next and probably last upgrade to this old MBP since I doubt Apple will support this MBP in Maverick.
I do not have another installation, so that is not an option. I will try to create an external, I have plenty of hard drives around and see if I can get it done that way. It might take me a week or two to get back to it, but I will comment back upon completion of that effort. Thanks for your help....Dave Iverson

I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.

I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.
The internet goes out and I have to reset network setting each and every time. This is only a temporary solution which by the time I release the line with Spring or leave the apple store the issue is back. Sprint indicates that it is a know issue with the Iphone 5 and apple says it is a network issue as Sprint's network is not up to par with the Iphone and can not meet the expectations on the Iphone 5.
I have attached a few picture, as you can see it clearly says I have 5 bars and 3g available but I have no connections what so ever.
This issue affects all data and so I can not send or receive picture messages, use apps, or access the internet. The data goes in and out intermittently and it seems the phone chooses what I can and can't do.
For example I can watch Youtube or Vevo videos but I can not access Facebook or Instagram.
Is anyone else having this issue?
I will soon loose my patience....
I have reset my phone three time and have reset network and other setting mutltiple times.

I am sorry to say that, but your security makes my life miserable – it’s been 2 months since my Apple ID account got stuck, and since then I cannot update 37 applications (to date), i.e. most of my applications. Half of them I bought. I also paid for iCloud, and it is not working. I paid money and I am stuck with old applications and no iCloud. Your security *****. Your service ***** too. It took your service 1 month to finally understand why this happened to me, and it took me tens of emails to you and 3 hours of telephone conversation to find out the reason for my problem. And the problem is still not fixed. NOT FIXED. You just leave your customer – the one who paid you money and spent so much time with you trying to help you help me – and nothing. You tell me: “Vitas, Stick your stinky iphone in your *** and enjoy life, we do not care!” *************.
It is ******* outrageous, and you should know that, guys. Get into the ******* database and correct the bug. Get someone in the partners-telephone carriers company (it is Orange as carreer and Cellcom as seller of the phone) authorized to Identify me in personal encounter in one of the branches in Israel (where I live) and make sure it is really me, and get the ******* system accept my password and let me use my phone.
Otherwise **** off. None of my friends will get my advise to buy an iphone or any of apple products. And I think you should be very attentive to cases like this, guys. Do your work for the money we pay, or disappear. There are many others eager to take your place, and if the problem is not fixed I will eventually go to the others. My patience is lost, and as soon as I can afford another phone I will change it. AND I WILL TRY TO GIVE BAAAAAD PUBLICITY TO APPLE – I am threatening here, so ACT NOW.

Well, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you

I'm having problems with iPhoto and the facebook set-up. Every time I attempt to do so it says an error has occured and try again later. I have not seen a solution posted. Therefore, how does one contact Apple to solve the problem? I'm new to the world of iMac but I find it a bit frustrating trying to solve basic issues/problems:(

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

Garageband Instruments and Apple Loops 1.0 update keeps repeating

I have OSX Yosemite 10.10.2 and Garageband 10.0.3. The auto update for Instruments and Apple Loops 1.0 appears and runs as an available update on a daily basis despite the fact that it has previously updated Garageband. Help please.

Paul,
I think what is happening is, that the update you are trying to install is meant for the new Mavericks compatable version of GarageBand - GarageBand 10.0. When the download finishes, it cannot be installed properly, because GarageBand 10.0 is not present. With GB 10 installed, these instruments download with no problem on my mac.
GB 10.0 is free on Mavericks - so, honestly, download and install GB 10.0 in addition to your current version. Let it download and install additional instruments and loops, launch it once to let it rebuild the loop index, then ignore it. The application does not need much space, and perhaps you may want to use occasionally the automatic drummer or the Arpeggiator. Before downloading GB10.0, make a backup copy of GB '09, just in case the installer should try to overwrite it.
After GB 10 installed the additional instruments, search for all places with installed loops in the system library and rebuild your loop index.
