SB X-Fi XtremeGamer on Vista, trying to get Virtual Midi Keyboard to work with Reaso

I've got a Vista 32 quad core computer with the Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer sound card. I'm trying out Reason 4, an advanced music production program that needs a midi keyboard. I downloaded Maple Midi and Virtual Midi Keyboard so I can try it out without buying a real midi keyboard.
The Virtual Midi Keyboard makes no sound when the Maple Midi ports are selected which are the only ones that Reason 4 can see, and when selected Reason acknowledges when I press a note on the keyboard though no sound. the other Midi ports 2-SB X-Fi Synth A, B etc make sound but Reason 4 can't see them.
And then using Soundfont Bank Manager I see a virtual keyboard and it shows the 4 Maple Midi ports and makes noise with any of them selected but Reason 4 can't seem to see or select this virtual keyboard.
Any ideas? I'm new to music and audio editing, so it may be something obvious that I've overlooked.

Yes, its showing up in the device manager and states its working properly with no errors, I tried uninstalling/reinstalling it in 3 of my PCI slots.
The first time I installed it, I uninstalled my onboard sound like the intructions stated before I installed the new one, why I had to reformat and start from scratch so I can manually disable it in the BIOS because all that is on my partition.
The only thing that comes up with the card to pick from is my MIDI player, but nothing else, but even with that I get no sound because I cant raise the volume on any volume control.

Trying to get a WRT54GX2 wireless router working with a WPC54G wireless card. The laptop and desktop both will access the Internet and work when hardwired through the router's Ethernet ports. When trying to access wireless, the Laptop shows to be connected to the router and also to Internet, but Internet Explorer can not access any websites. Suggestions? Thanks.

what ip address does the laptop get ?? ensure that the laptop is not set for a static ip add....and it gets an ip add from the router ..

Trying to get a 3rd Party Router working with BT I...

Hi,
I'm trying to move away from the HHub5 on our FTTC BT Infinity connection (40Mb/s). Eventually I settled on a TP-Link WDR 3600 N600 - the flavour which is happy to talk to cable modems and take an OpenWRT install.
So far I've hooked up a BT OpenReach "white box" modem using the HHub's RJ11 lead, going from the DSL filter into the OpenReach modem's DSL socket. The modem's DSL LED lights up solid green - which I presume is good? The TP-Link router is up & running fine with OpenWRT installed, I can connect to it over WiFi and I've hooked up its WAN connection to the OpenReach modem's LAN1 socket (LAN2 is blanked out).
But whatever I put in the router's PPPoE settings I just can't get an internet connection to come up. So far I've used '[email protected] (as it's set on the HHub) and a few other suggestions from the forums including 'anything you like' @btinternet.com and @btbroadband.com - nothing seems to get the connection going.
Is there something I've missed or can anyone suggest a solution?
Many thanks,
Steve
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sorry to answer my own question, but in case it helps anyone in the future:
I had to put my username in the username AND password fields - same details in both. I've not seen this written anywhere online, everyone says to leave the password field blank as it's unused.
So to recap - this is what got my TP-LINK WDR3600 (OpenWRT based) router working with Infinity: stick [email protected] in the PPPoE usernamd AND password fields.

Trying to get my sound card to work with ArchLinux

Okay, let me tell you my problem. I'm still somewhat of a noob when it comes to linux so don't be hard on me . And, yes that's half of my problem, anyways I've got a sound card called the Soundblaster X-FI USB and I've been trying it to get it to work with the alsaconf command which hasn't worked of course Let me point out that whenever I use my backup flashdrive with PuppyLinux it the Alsaconf inside of it see's the card that I'm using and automatically sets it up.. Plus whenever I type the ' cat /proc/asound/cards ' command I get this..
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xefffc000 irq 21
1 [S51 ]: USB-Audio - SB X-Fi Surround 5.1
Creative Technology SB X-Fi Surround 5.1 at usb-0000:00:1d.2-2, full speed
*(The first one being my dead onboard audio)
So please help me out here I really want to have sound again and hey maybe I'll learn something new about linux!

there's some experimental driver that maybe makes it work with alsa, see here:
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=n … &px=Njc3NQ
My card is a USB which isn't compatible with the driver that they include. So no help there ;(. I've loaded Ubuntu recently and it has worked perfectly with my soundcard (Creative X-FI USB Surround 5.1) right out of the box. I personally think there has to be a way to get it to work in Archlinux since it worked in Ubuntu...
Although. I suppose I could just use Ubuntu but I'm more of a fan of Arch. So does anyone have any idea what Ubuntu used as in drivers wise to get my card to work in linux??

Trying to get a 2nd display to work with my MacBook

Hey,
I have the late 2008 aluminium MacBook. I'm trying to use a 1440x900 monitor as an alternative display for it using a mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter. However, I can't seem to get it working. The monitor either just shows a stock background, or if I use mirroring, it drops the resolution to the same as my MacBook.
Ideally, what I'd like to do, is use my magic mouse and keyboard plugged into my MacBook with the lid closed, but the display appearing on the bigger monitor. Can I do this?
Thanks

Both is expected behaviour when using external display with your MAcBook.

Apple calls this closed clamshell mode. See here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131

Trying to get a Wasp 800 to work with an iPad 2

Good Morning All,
Recently, my department has purchased a few iPad 2's, and we'd like to use a bluetooth scanner. One of our guys purchased a Wasp 800 thinking it would work because it's bluetooth. I tried it and called customer support twice this morning and didn't have any luck. I was curious if anyone here had any insight on this issue.
http://www.waspbarcode.com/scanners/cordless_barcode_scanner.asp

Just out of curiosity, read the wasp manual, and see what the bt protocols it uses are, then look at the specs for the pad3 and see if they are in the new one. Or, better yet, take you wasp down to the apple store next week, and try it there, see if it connects.
Won't help your issue with the current 2s, but would at least give you a hint about future purchases.
There were some older threads along the same lines, and while I cannot find it, someone did get a connect using a wired via the cck to the pad.
You may just have bought the wrong scanner. See the link below.

Trying to get lexmark Z708 printer to work with Snow Leopard

I've just set up a friend's new Mac, using 10.6.4; he's moved from Windows with his Lexmark X708 printer. I can't find any Z708 printing drivers that will work with SnowL - not on the installation 'extras' on the dvd, nor on apple or lexmark's pages (the 708 driver for 10.4 on lexmark's site doesn't work). is there a workaround or do i have to persuade him to fork out yet more for a new printer?

There is a "Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard > Printing, faxing and scanning forum you just missed it.

Trying to get Oblivion and Morrowind to work with Commercial Wine

I hope this message is helpful and I hope to get some feedback about what could be improved about my approach. I researched some stuff I desided to do a free trial of Crossover "The commercial Wine" Which is more GUI and easier to configure. I've got Oblivion to install Sound works, graphics are supurb but it is VERRRY SLOW I've heard of Open GL but couldn't find it in the local community repo. Oblivion needs from what I understand is direct3d or the ActiveX that installs with the game disk. If there are any solutions. I'd be glad to hear them. Does Windows directX hinder the running of PC Games on a Linux system or would it be better to get the latest optimized Linux i686 DirectX?

Does Windows directX hinder the running of PC Games on a Linux system
Yes
would it be better to get the latest optimized Linux i686 DirectX?
There is none. directx is strictly microsoft stuff.
Wine translates directx calls to opengl calls on the fly.
The easiest way if wine doesn't work is to buy cedega, which would have pretty up to date directx "support".

I am trying to get this java program to work

I need your help, I am trying to get this java program to work. The program is long and massive, but I got stuck in the last point where the program checks if there are a double quotes or a comma in a string.
The string is an URL retrieved from XML files (this is already done).
There are 4 conditions:
Case 1
=====
The URL string is of invalid format and contains no commas (,) and no double quotes (").
Make no changes to the URL string.
Case 2
=====
The URL string is of invalid format and contains 1 or more double quotes (") but no commas.
Make no changes to the URL string.
Case 3
=====
The URL string is of invalid format and contains 1 or more commas (,) but no double quotes.
Modify the URL string so that it starts and ends with a double quote (").
Case 4
=====
The URL string is of invalid format and contains 1 or more double quotes (") and one or more commas (,).
Modify the URL string so that every double quote (") becomes a double double quote (""), and so that it starts and ends with a double quote (").
======
then write the modified URL string to the CSV file.
======
Examples:
1. hello ---> hello
2. hello "big" world ---> hello "big" world
3. hello, world ---> "hello, world"
4. hello "big,big" world ---> "hello ""big,big"" world"

You can do the searching with String.indexOf() and then you can make replacements (like " with "") with String.replaceAll().
As for adding leading and trailing ", that could be done with simple concatenation.

So sick of trying to get iTunes 8.2 to work on Vista - 7 days of ****

After downloading £50+ worth of new music/audiobooks and tv shows last week, innocently clicked on 'upgrade to 8.2'; (yes I backed up my Library and hard disk first); result, the last 7 days of **** trying to get iTunes and my iPhone to sync. I'm so sick of this bloody iPhone, iTunes and Vista, if I could go out and purchase a replacement to iPhone and iTunes I would without a second thought.
I have tried absolutely everything posted on apple.com/itunes/support in the last 7 days - must have spent a good 4-5 hours a day over the last 7 days trying to fix this sodding fault.
At this point, I'm considering going back to CDs, and the simplicity of just putting a CD on and playing it. It seems but a far away, simple approach to listening to music, compared to the sodding **** of trying to get iTunes to work on my Vista Laptop.
So ****** off I'm thinking of getting rid of my iPhone (and yes I'm at the end of my contract) and going for anything that is Non-Apple.
Anyone else had this delightful experience with iTunes 8.1 and 8.2?

Read the iTouch forums and other iPhone forums... this is a big issue and a known bug. Apple contacted me right after I posted my issue. I downloaded it when it was released. My fix tonight was to downgrade to iTunes 8.1. This works for sure, so this is the only fix that I know truly works.

Trying to get a code walkthrough to work - Bing Ads Api C# Web App

Hi,
I'm trying to get the C# Web App code walkthrough to work. I went through the steps written out, and pasted in the Client ID, Client Secret, RedirectionUri, and DeveloperToken values. When I run the app, it sends me to the redirection URI, with
"?code=" and a 36-character code added onto the address. Could you tell me why this is happening, and what I might need to do to get this working?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike.
The current example assumes that you set the RedirectionUri to index.chtml, which admittedly isn't robust enough. We plan to update it. Typically as you are probably attempting, the callback after the user provides credentials would redirect
to a page other than index.chtml e.g. callback.chtml.
Short term solution is that you can update the RedirectionUri to either "YourSite\" or "YourSite\index.chtml", and the existing sample should run. Otherwise you can define a new callback page that handles the "?code" fragment
e.g. as follows:
// If the current HTTP request is a callback from the Microsoft Account authorization server,
// use the current request url containing authorization code to request new access and refresh tokens
if (Request["code"] != null)
await authorization.RequestAccessAndRefreshTokensAsync(Request.Url);
// Save the authorization object in a session for future requests.
Session["auth"] = authorization;
return await CallBingAdsServices((OAuthWebAuthCodeGrant)Session["auth"]);
Does this help? Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Best regards,
Eric

Frustrated, trying to find an itunes that will work with my OS!!!!

Does anyone know where I can get an itunes that is compatible with Tiger 10.4.2? I had itunes 7.?? working just fine and I upgraded to a point where it would not work anymore. I've tried finding older downloads, ie 6.0.5 and 7.7 but none of them worked. Does apple not expect users of 10.4.2 to ever use itunes?? Any pointer in the right direction would be much appreciated!!! Thanks in advance!

I'm running iTunes 7.7 on OS 10.3.9. You should be able to run that version on your current OS, but is there any reason that you can't update your Tiger to the most recent version of 10.4.11? With 10.4.11, you could run iTunes 8, the most recent version.
If you want version 7.7, you can download it here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/iTunes77

HT1551 Atv3 doesnt want to finish installing update although ive tried several times, now the remote wont work with it either and when I press the remote the light on the box flashes several times, I unplugged everything but nothing works and I cant reset

my Atv3 is due for an update and ive tried several times to install it but although it downloads it never finishes installing and tells me that it wasnt possible to update and to try another time. I try every other day and it only inches forward in the progress but it never completes the installation. I was tired of waiting and I decided to keep on trying in a period of time one night until it would finally install, that never happened and Im not sure what is going on but the remote stopped working with the atv3 and when I press a button the box light flashes several times but does nothing, ive disconnected it and left it that way for over 24 hrs, ive disconnected everything (tv, internet etc) and nothing. I cant reset the atv3 through the remote either...i dont know what else to do

Hi Brian,
Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
Thanks for your help though!
