Something off in my updated copy of GarageBand

I just got around to installing Snow Leopard on my Mac and also updated GB while I was at it.
It's disheartening. In a single update I went from being extremely proficient at musical typing to practically being unable to get through a measure without getting lost.
After updating GB, I went into a project I had been working on in the older 3.0.x version I had an started using the Mac keyboard to practice musical typing. 
Anyway, I immediately noticed a lack of responsiveness. Like the notes I'm hearing at some points are dragging behind my playing and some notes are just missing because the program can't keep up with the speed of my playing. It's seems what's throwing me off is the notes I'm playing seem truncated, like they immediately turn off the nano second I release the key. I don't really know music terminology but it seems I would like the notes to be elongated or stretched out a little more after I release the key. Or fade out slower.
I didn't have this problem before in the older version. All my tracks are locked, and in addition to the OS update, I upped the RAM to 4MB, so what can it be?
Is it possible the "cutoff", "release" and "attack" parameters for the guitars changed in later releases of GB? I think this is what is throwing me off. I tried adjusting those but just made the problem more pronounced, which is a hint to me this may be where my musical discombobulation is stemming from.
I also just noticed the computer keys normally assigned to the drum kit I use seem to be reversed on the keyboard, i.e. the bass drum sound that used to be triggered by pressing key " A " is now triggered by key " ' " all the way on the other side of the keyboard.
Thanks for any help. Be back later tonight.

I think I had too many tracks. Deleted all but two and that seems to have fixed the stretched notes problem. But how do I get the software drum keys back to the old set up?

    Do you still have your old Mac?
    How did you migrate from the old Mac to the new Mac? Did you transfer your old software and documents using Setup Assistant? Then your old GarageBand '11 version should have been migrated, and all your instruments.
    if you did  not migrate GarageBand '11, copy your old Instruments Library and Loop Library over from the old mac. Copy the following folders to a thumbsdrive and merge the missing dontents into the corresponding folders on your new mac:  (from the system library - the top level library folder on your Macintosh HD):
    /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/
    And if you would like to continue to use GarageBand '11 for access to missing features, copy also /Applications/GarageBand over, but to a subfolder of Applications. I recommend, to install the old GarageBand as well. It can be used in parallel to GB 10.0, and will come in handy, if your old projects are having problems.

    The JamPacks are nice to have, a terrific collection of instruments and loops, but if you did not have them previously, that will not help with your missing instruments. You can instll them by buying Mainstage 3. They work well with GarageBand 10.0

    Hello there, started to sinc my iPad 3 to my iPhone 5 with iCloud and a lot off the items did copy over, I was connected to a power supply but for some reason it's still missing half the items and I am struggling to retrieve them can you help please.
    Thank you Callum Gordon

    Well the term "hotlined" I have never heard before. In any case many states (like NY) just passed regulatory powers to the State Public Service Commission of which it may be called something different in your state. You could file a complaint with them. Or file a complaint with your state attorney generals office, they also take on wireless providers.
    The problem here is the staff you speak to are poorly trained, in days gone by it took one call to them and they pulled up your account and see the error and had the authority to remove any errors. They did not remove legitimate account actions, but used their heads instead of putting a customer off or worse lying to the customer.
    Its a shame you have to go through what you going through.
    Good Luck

  • Switch off the automatic update of profit centers on the Balance Sheet acco

    Dear all,
    In CO I am using only CCA and PCA. But I don't want to have the profit center updated on the balance sheet items.
    For example I have it activated for all the automatical BS postings from MM
    I need it only for the PL accounts.
    How can I switch off the automatic updates of profit centers on the Balance Sheet Account?
    Is it enough to deactivate the PCA on the Controlling Area?
    Thanks in advance.

  • How does one turn off link auto-update?

    When we have an ID file open in CS6 and make a Photoshop edit, the link seems to auto-update. We don't like this as we'd rather 'watch' the update so if comes in as expected, etc.. Can one turn off link auto-update? Thanks!

    Are you making the edit by selecting the graphic frame and then choosing Edit Original? This will always auto-update.
    If that's not it, you might try clicking Preferences > General > Reset All Warning Dialogs

  • Update copied to multiple documents

    Hi
    We have a requirement to update a property or value within a document such as expiry date and for this update to automatically copied to multiple documents on different sites and libraries.
    We need to edit a 'master copy' and have this change copied to all other documents based on the 'master copy'. We would appreciate any suggestions. We are thinking of using workflow rules and the update list item action but are unsure if there is better
    options.
    Would we possibly be able to use the document information panel and have the update copied to other documents based on a template?
    Thanks very much
    Tony

    Hi
    Just to let you know, I am considering using a Slist and a custom document information panel.
    The data will be changed in the list and then using a data connection within the document information panel, be copied to the quick parts within the word document.
    The word document will reside on a different site and library and when opened will receive data from the list (master copy), the data will then be copied to the quick parts within the document.
    Does anyone foresee any issues with this approach?
    I would like to refresh the document automatically without reopening the document. Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks very much

    Hi jonnarink,
    Try this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    In short:
    1) Make sure the iPhone is not connected to USB and, if it is on, turn it off by holding the power button and the home button together(takes about 6 seconds)
    2) Once it's completely off, hold down the home button
    3) While holding home, connect the USB cable and keep holding home until iTunes recognises the iPhone
    It will force the iPhone into recovery mode, then you can connect to iTunes and restore your backup. Bear in mind that it will likely need to be updated to 5.0.1 anyway.
    :edit:
    Sorry, just saw Ralph Landry1's post above mine(typed mine a while ago, only posted now!) with the same link

  • My system keeps shutting off unexpectedly after updating it to OS X 10.8.2 (12C60). is there anything that can be done to correct this?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Rounding Off Value is not copying from Sales Order to Invoice

    Hi Experts,
    In Pricing Procedure i maintained DIFF- Rounding Off Condition type with the following Combinations.
    Print:X
    Requirement:13
    Cal Type: 16
    Bas Type: 4
    When i create sales order the system is calculating Rounding Off after saving the sales order.The requirement is that it should shows the rounding off value before saving the sales order.Secondly when i make invoice the rounding off value is not copying from the saved sales order.After i save the invoice in VF02 the rounding off value is coming .
    Regards
    Subhasish

    Cond type DIFF has cond catgory L Generally new when copying. So the value from sales order will not be copied, it will be redetermined in invoice.
    Also rounding off cond is to round the total value which can change in invoice based on the invoice qty.

  • My iPod was updating to iOS 6 and i shut it off during the update because it was taking too long and now my screen in baby blue i've tried to drain the battery but when i plugged it in to charge the blue screen came back on.I dont know what to do

    My iPod was updating to iOS 6 and i shut it off during the update because it was taking too long and now my screen in baby blue i've tried to drain the battery but when i plugged it in to charge the blue screen came back on.I dont know what to do

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
    2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
    Is your iPad working?
