Share sound between XP and Archlinux computer [M-AUDIO firewire 410]

Hi,
This might be a strange question but anyway,
I bought a M-AUDIO firewire 410 soundcard about 3-4 yeas ago, i never had a problem with it, and now that i've tasted the sound produced by the device, i can't get rid of it,
I've searched for over one year in order to make it work under linux (tried FreeBOB, wine...), no success in making it work under arch (or unbuntu for that matter), but that's not the point of this topic
The only solution that i've found can be by "sharing" the audio from my main computer (wich is running archlinux) to an auxiliary computer running Windows XP and has the firewire 410 plugged and installed.
My question is, does anyone knows a way to share the audio buffer from my arch computer to my auxiliary computer without loosing too much quality ? Both computers are connected over ethernet at a speed of 1Gbts/sec
I think it might be tricky, tried googleing it, but no success.
I Consider myself as an advanced linux user, so fire away !

s/pdif seems to be for such situations. You could also try running some networked sound daemon, pulseaudio supposedly runs on windows as well, not sure what support phonon has for networked audio.

Does anyone know if there is a way to share files between Mavericks and Mac OS 9.1 operating system?

Does anyone know if there is a way to share files between Mavericks and Mac OS 9.1 operating system? When I try to connect from my iMac I get a window that says "The version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported." Is there a work-around to this problem or is it just not possible? It would be largly appriciated for a solutin beings my business is a small town newspaper, and we have some important files on the older computer that need to be acessed daily.

Actually to share files between OS 8-9 and OS X, all versions, is quite easy from what I read. Look here for some details.

Or since both OS 9 and OS X can do SMB Windows sharing you could use that protocol to share files from one to the other.
Doesn't really matter what OS you are using. Mac OS/OS X shar files with Windows computers of all types and versions of Windows so the same applies for the different versions of Mac OS/OS X.
Each Operating System takes care of reading and writing files to there respective file formats of the hard drives so that does not have to be the same. They both just have to be able to do Ethernet with the same files sharing protocol.

How to share files between pc and mac via external hard drive

how can i share my files(mp3,mp4,documents) from my harddisk with mac. i am a new mac user and i have a harddisk of NTFS format(as i was a pc user).I learned that mac supports FAT32 format and therefore i can't write data on my external hard drive.
but, reading a section of OSX yosemite(under compatibility) it is said that now we can easily share files between pc and mac.
So please suggest me easier way that how can i share files between macs and pc as my friends uses pc and in future i really want to share my data with them without any hustle and i dont wanna loose my data in future

You can format the HDD to a common one like ExFAT or Fat32 but a reformat will delete all data off of the HDD.
Your other option is to use a third party software such as Paragon or Tuxera that will allow you to write to a NFTS formatted HDD.
Ciao.

M-Audio FireWire 410 and FCP Studio 2

Here is something that I've learned and would like to share.
I have a M-Audio firewire device to record with Logic Pro. I have the latest driver and set my sample rate at 48 KHZ to be friendly to FCP6. But when editing and monitoring my video/audio thru my Sony HDV deck all the sequences and clips are sped up that indicates a sample rate issue. Monitoring audio thru the Firewire 410 is ok. My workaround is to disconnect the M-Audio device when editing video and use it only when scoring. So if you have this problem don't pull your hair out and start trashing pref files. Either monitor thru the M-Audio device or simply unplug it. If anybody else has any insight on this I would like to hear it.

Perhaps you have a firewire bus issue as noted in this thread:

I got the answer talking to m-audio. There is a conflict when you connect two firewire devices to the same bus (two firewire jacks can be on the same bus). 2 solutions.
1. get a firewire card on a PCI slot, and assign the 410 to that.
2. daisy chain the hard drive to the back of the 410 and DONT plug any other firewire devices into your mac.

HELP!! No sound while recording thrugh M-Audio firewire 410

I am using Logic express 7 with an M-Audio firewire 410. I have my guitar plugged into the mbox and Logic is picking up the signal from my guitar, but I cannot monitor the sound while recording OR hear anything else at all. When I unplug the mbox, however, I can hear everything that i just recorded along with everything else in the song fine. I just need some help figuring out how to monitor the sound, PLEASE!!!!

Logic always uses the same audio interface for input AND output, so I suppose your problem is that you do not have any speakers connected to you M-Audio interface. Try adding a pair of speakers to it. If there's still no sound, go to Logic's audio settings and see if "software monitoring" is active or not.

Warning - M-Audio Firewire 410 and 10.5.2

Note that since upgrading to 10.5.2, my M-Audio Firewire 410 does not work and I receive an error message suggesting I re-load the drivers. Have not investigated in detail but I wanted to give a 'heads-up' to others thinking of upgrading. M-Audio do not yet have drivers for Leopard.

The fw410's not hot swappable anymore - a power down is alway needed if youve plugged it in while osx is running... 10.5.1 you could hot swap and it would work!
something has changed?
I think its about time m-audio came out with a new 10.5.x update... we havent had one since April 07 for 10.4.9

Share files between Mac and Windows in same iMac with boot camp

Hello,
I am new in using Mac and recently I buy a IMac 24" model.
I used to use PC a long time with a lot of old document.
I want to install Windows XP with boot camp.
But I also want to share my documents, music, video files between Mac and Windows in same iMac.
How can I do this?
Thanks in advance,
Eric

Hi Eric and welcome to Discussions and the Apple world.
Mac OSX can read and write from Windows partitions (like the BootCamp Windows partition you are about to create) when using FAT32 as file system for Windows.
However with FAT32 you are limited to a partition size of 32GB.
Mac OSX can also read from Windows partitions that uses the NTFS file system, but it can not write to them unless you use a third-party helper like either Paragons NTFS for Mac http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/ or NTFS-3G http://www.ntfs-3g.org/
Windows can not even see or use a Mac OSX partition without additional help by MacDrive http://www.mediafour.com/products/macdrive/

[vmware] Best way to share files between host and client

Good afternoon!
I have successfully installed VMware server on my machine and set up a virtual machine, powering Windows XP for study issues (emulation via wine does not do the trick for me). The virtual machine runs fast and stable but does not meet my requirements unless I have two issues faced:
First:
How to access a USB pendrive monunted by the host system properly within the client?
Second:
What is the best way to share file system space between host and client? Should I set up a Samba share which is accessible for both host and client or is it save to grant my VM access to my physical hard disc as a whole (using it as a partition)?
Thanks for answers in advance, I have still quite a lot to learn, when it comes to VMs.
Regards,
~cg

Do not setup your VMware to be able to access your physical disk as a whole. This would have you mounting the filesystem twice, corrupting it in the process.
You /can/ setup VMware with Sharing Folders that lets you share your filesystem (either / or just /home or something else) and that is what I would recommend.
As for accessing the pen drive from both operating systems at once, I'd say use the same Sharing Folders method. I always share /mnt so that I can access my cdrom/USB/etc from the vmware OS.
The sharing folders is basically the same as a samba share, but uses vmware's own method (HGFS). Samba is more secure (if you are worried about your VMware OS breaking from it's shell and attacking your real filesystem, which is unlikely). You need the vmware tools installed to make use of it.

Play Sound Through Display AND Connected Computer.

I bought and connected my new 27" LED Display to my 27" iMac today and would like to know if its possible to play sound through both the display AND the computer at the same time. I know to go into the sound settings in system preferences, however only the option is given to chose the sound output to come from either one or the other.
Is it possible to play the audio through both?
Thanks in advance!

I downloaded this program with the provided link - after changing the settings as advised I began to get that loud static white noise like sound out of the iMac speakers (which apparently is a problem many people have experienced with their 27" i7 iMacs). As soon as I deleted the Audio Hijack program the speakers went back to normal. (Thank God!)
If anyone else has any suggestions as to how I can play sound through both the iMac and the display at the same time this would be great appreciated.
Thanks for trying to help though Malcom

How to transfer and share songs between computers and IPhone 4

I have a few songs that were purchased on my laptop ITunes that are not on my iphone or desktop. When I tried to transfer them to my IPhone, I received the message that the songs on my Iphone would be replaced by the tunes on the laptop. How do I transfer or share tunes between computers so that each one has all of the songs in my library?

Simple - sync with iTunes as you are supposed to.

I have windows, one computer but multi users. home sharing is on. how can i share music between users on one computer?

I have windows. One computer but multi users. Home sharing is on. 2 apple accounts-1 per user. 4 devices-2 iphones and 2 ipods per user. How can we share music on one computer between 2 users?

Hi Justinece, I've solved the problem in this way:
In my wife user profile I've set in itunes settings/advanced the path to my music library: /Users/"MY NAME"/Music/iTunes/Itunes media.
Than, from my wife profile using my administrator user and password I've set the "read/write" privileges on the above mentioned folder.
Finally I've added the folder in my wife's library taking care to not duplicate it ( leave blank the flag in itunes setting/advanced).
I really don't understand what's the use of home sharing...

How to share files between computers and TC

What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
Thanks

What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
The simplest way to do this would be to enable File Sharing on both Macs.
On each Mac....
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Sharing
Enter a check mark next to File Sharing
Now when you open the Finder or Macintosh HD, you will see the "other" Mac and you will be able to access files/folders, etc. on the other computer.
I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
The Time Capsule was designed to work with the Time Machine application to back up your Mac(s). As such, the TC will make a complete copy of each Mac on the first backup and backup any changes after that to keep a complete timeline of each Macs files. Each computer normally will only be able to access the backups for that given computer.
While it is possible to store normal files or folders on the Time Capsule disk, this is not generally recommended as there will eventually be a struggle between Time Machine and the files on the disk as the drive begins to fill up. The other thing to keep in mind is that access to the drive for "normal" files will be quite slow.

Share filing between Mac and Windows Vista

Hello,
I am trying to file share my iBook and Vista.
On my I book under Finder >>>Network>> I see my computer name "Computer-PC" but the icon is grayed out.
When I click on it it says:
The Alias "Computer-PC" Could not opened, because the original item cannot be found. Then it gives me 3 choices
Delete Alias, Fix Alias , OK
I hit OK it does nothing
I hit Fix Alias, Then it ask me to choose an item to open. I dont know what to open????
I do not want to Delete Alias.
Also I tried to connect Vista and it does see the IBook on the network, but then when I try to connect It asks for the user name and password of my iBook
I verified this by reading the support docs on the Apple website.
System Preference >>>Systems >>>Accounts >> verified and changed password.
Still no luck. Can someone give me some advice? Thanks!!

There are more than a few threads on the topic across the web; so I guess a search
would be in order and some sorting of results to enable a wise choice from them.
There's also the Apple Help built into OS X and some ideas present themselves.
Firewall changes would probably be necessary, and the Sharing (system preference)
panel has some access settings for some of this sort of thing.
(The closest I have been to sharing between a Windows machine and a Mac, is when
I let a few Windows machines mistakenly given to me to troubleshoot & repair, were
brought into my space and they temporarily shared a workbench. I found out what
was wrong with them (outside of the poor quality & shabby OS) -- and out they went!)

Sharing Apple Monitor between G5 and windos computer

I seemed to have read that it is possible to connect a windows computer to the Apple monitor and share the monitor between the two computers. Anyone know what I need to to that?

Many newer monitors have dual inputs. For example, my Viewsonic has an HDMI (Mac) and VGA (PC) input. Toggling between the two is a matter of pressing a monitor button.

HT3819 can you home share apps between iphones and ipads?

just wondering if we're able to share apps in the house hold. I have iphone 4, ios 5.1. My husband has iphone 4, ios 4.3, (still hasn't upgraded to 5....lazy.)
and we have an ipad2.
I'm just learning about the home sharing thing.....any help is appreciated!

Sounds like you got the answer you were looking for, but I wanted to add that when you have home sharing up on the computer and the home share account is activated, the home share account listed in iTunes has a little triangle to the right of the account name, and if you click that a submenu appears that lists the apps videos etc. on the other account you then can add those to your other devices/computers the same way you add songs, just drag them into your iTunes library listed at the top of the column.
I just wanted to add this to this thread since I found that it clears things up for other people searching for an answer.
