Unable to get Saffire Pro 26 audio interface to work with Windows 8.1

Can anybody help with compatibility issues between Windows 8.1 (64 bit) and Focusrite Saffire PRO 26 audio interface? I'm using a Firewire PCIe Card. Focusrite registration page pointed me to an installer called saffire-pro-2.61.exe. This installer times
out on a page called 'Installing device driver (1 of 2) waiting for the Saffire PRO to be connected to the computer (The Saffire Pro device is connected and a powered up and appears in the Device Manager as a device called Focusrite SAFFIRE_PRO26 which is
listed under the Other devices section of Device Manager with a yellow exclamation mark which appears to be a catch 22 (after all I'm trying to install the drivers). No answer from Focusrite support (due to holidays). Many thanks for any help you can give
(particularly if someone knows that it should work!).

Brilliant. This has moved me on.  I wasn't impressed when Focusrite registration presented me with drivers from 2011. You'll probably tell me finding the latest drivers is easy but somehow I failed to find anything in my panic. I have a second issue
now (Pro Tools 11.2.2 could not initialize the Saffire) but your response seems to have solved the first issue. Thanks!

    Why can't I get photo stream or icloud to work with windows vista?

    Have you tried quitting Pages completely, restart the iPad and then go back to Pages and see if they will upload?
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Mics and audio interfaces that work with Camera Connector

    FYI: After playing with the Camera Connector I have been able to connect USB recording gear for use with MultiTrack DAW app on the iPad. The Blue Yeti, Samson's GTrack and Roland's Cakewalk Audio Interface all work for inputting audio. All three have internal headphone jacks which work for monitoring both the input and multitrack recordings.
    One caveat with the Yeti: it appears to be almost at the limit of the power that the iPad's USB Camera Connnector can supply. Some headphones and earbuds shut down the mic. Sennheiser HD280 phones work fine, but some of the Sennheiser buds don't.

    It has been reported before that a lot of USB audio devices (e.g., headsets, microphones). As an example see:

  • Mobilepre audio interface not working with logic express 8

    I have been using an M-AUDIO usb interface for garageband for the last year,i recently installed logic express 8 and i just can't get any sound whilst trying to record,logic displays a signal in the channel strip but no sound comes from my monitors,only when i plug the ear phones into the interface can i hear what i'm recording.I've tried every trouble shooting option in my apple pro training book like monitoring and audio preferences.I've contacted M-AUDIO but they just put me on hold as if there really busy!!!

    Welcome to the wonderful world of M-Audio!!! Now, what you are doing is perfectly NORMAL. You need to hook up speakers to your audio interface. Where the little diagram says so:
    http://www.m-audio.com/layout/imgview.php?i=/images/en/connectivity/big/mobilepr eusbcd779px.gif
    See? The reason this is so, is because when you are using this interface, you are BOTH using the inputs AND outputs. Logic always works like this, it is a requirement to use "a full-duplex sound card" which means a sound card that has inputs and outputs.

    M-audio blaming everyone else is not new, however, your "issue" is a user issue, not a gear issue.

  • Audio INTERFACE that works with Garage Band??

    Any suggestions for a good inexpensive audio interface? Fast Track is awful.... Something about 250 or under?
    Want to plug guitar into device, device into MAC - and lay down tracks.

    Do the second two in the top row work with Garage Band
    there isn't such a thing as "working with GB", if it works on a mac it will work with GB
    and ProTools?
    i know very little about protools, though they tend to be more proprietary
    can we plug them in (to guitar and MAC) and roll?
    yes
    Or is a mic needed??
    "needed", no. there are both 1/4" as well as XLR jacks, as you can see in the pics. you can use either.

  • Getting Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder work with Windows 8.1 on a GT72-2QD

    Has anyone ever used Adobe Flash Media Encoder 3.1 or 3.2 to stream live under Windows 8.1?  I can't get it detect an audio device with Windows 8.1 x64 on an MSI GT72-2QD laptop. I tried 2 different webcams but the result was the same. Both the internal mic and the ones going with the webcams work fine with other software but when I try FMLE it looks as follows:
    It says that there's no audio device connected (although the mics work fine elsewhere), the source select dropout is blank and the audio parameters are grayed out and inactive even with the "audio" box checked. Both versions of FMLE work fine with the same cams on a desktop which has all the same tech specs but uses Win 7 x64. Running FMLE in Win7 compatibility mode or reinstalling with register cleaning doesn't help. I believe FMLE is getting in conflict either with the Windows 8.1 or with some of the preinstalled software (I haven't installed any programs yet other than the ones that came preinstalled with the laptop and uninstalled the Gamecaster prior to installing Adobe Encoder). What can be done about it other than downgrading to Win7?

  • How do I get Photo Deluxe 3.1 to work with Windows XP?

    I have recently upgraded my PC (used to have 98SE).
    Since then, I cannot get Photo Deluxe 3.1 to work
    I *DO NOT* want Photoshop - it's WAY WAY WAY too complicated for me.
    Photo Deluxe 3.1 was great, did everything I wanted it to do, and was so simple that even George W. Bush could work it.
    The features that I used are :
    * Allowing a print screen image to be pasted with CTRL+C
    * EASY cropping of photos
    * Wash out of photos (for back inlays of CD mixes - the back inlay was a washed out version of the front inlay, with text over the top)
    * BASIC, easy to do brightness & contrast controls
    * EXPORT - so I can export any image to almost any format, particularly JPG
    Ideally, I'd like to continue to use Photo Deluxe 3.1
    If I REALLY must, I want a SIMPLE Photo Editor (IE, NOT Photoshop) that will do the things I did with Photo Deluxe.

    For the tasks Jangly Mark describes, GIMP is certainly easy. It would take less than 10 minutes to discover/learn how to do these tasks in GIMP.
    The only reason why GIMP may appear to be difficult to us is because we are accustomed to Photoshop's different controls and methods.
    Here are some GIMP quick tips:
    Cropping:
    Press 'Shift-C' to start the crop tool. Draw box. Adjust Corners. Hit 'Enter'.
    Creating a washed imaged:
    Tools Menu->Color Tools->Levels
    Adjusting Brightness and Contrast:
    Tools Menu->Color Tools->Brightness-Contrast

  • LAPTOP VAIO SVT15112CSX audio drivers that work with windows 10

    Upgraded to Windows 10 (7/31/2015) VAIO SVT15112CSX but the audio (sound qaulity) was horrible.  After some trying I found that installing the Windows 8.0 audio drivers from the Sony Support area for the latop made the sound work great again. I installed the patch (1) then rebooted. After that installed the audio driver (2) (not sure if you have todo it that way, but it worked for me).  Everything else appears to work fine so far.  :-) Support area: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=SVT15112CXS&LOC=3#/downloadTab Files from win8.0 64 bit:  (there are no audio files in win 8.1 64 bit area).Description of files:(1) File DescriptionAudio Driver Registry PatchRelease Date2/01/2013Version2012 10/15File Size1.00 MBDOWNLOADThis utility installs the originally shipped version of the Audio Driver Registry Patch. (2) File DescriptionRealtek® High Definition Audio DriverRelease Date1/03/2013Version6.0.1.6695File Size132.26 MBDOWNLOADThis utility will install the originally shipped version of the Realtek High Definition Audio driver.

     
    Hi condor, 
    Welcome to Sony Community! 
    I believe the right model name of your unit is SVT15112CXS and not SVT15112CSX. Based on eSupport website, the drivers and software for Windows 10 will be released on November 2015. Those drivers are specifically made for Windows 8, but I am glad that it works well with Windows 10. You may stick with these and wait for the updated drivers once released and install on your laptop. 
    Thank you for posting your experience condor.  You post might be very helpful to other users experiencing the same issue. I'll bookmark this thread for future reference. 
    Best regards,
    Vincent

  • Audio interface not working with Mavericks

    I know this has been asked before, but I only just got Mavericks and it won't recognise my M-Audio MobilePre as an output source.  I've tried installing new drivers but it didn't work.  Now I have $800+ of equipment that I can't use.  Is there anything else I can try to fix it? Or can I downgrade my OS?

    I think it's something you need to take up with Avid.
    Firstly, do Avid support the hardware on Mavericks? If they do, then that means it's a unique problem which hopefully can be fixed.
    Secondly, are any relevant messages being logged when you access System Preferences > Sound or Audio MIDI Setup? Open Console utility, and have a look. You can filter for particular search terms, but start by looking at the time you do it.

  • Unable to get the "Submit a form" action working with Webmail: Gmail

    I am attempting to create interactive PDF forms for the website which the end user will email back once filled out.
    I have added a link to the form that runs the "Submit a form" action, this appears to work if you have a mail client installed, but if you specify Webmail "Gmail", the system appears to start the process with:
    First asking you for the email account details to add
    You are then asked to allow Adobe Acrobat permissions to your access your email account
    It then attempts to create a draft message but fails with:  "Error while creating message ..."
    NB: I have logged into my Gmail account on the client PC and I am able to send emails.
    Any ideas if this has a known problem and if a fix is available, without a fix it makes interactive PDF's a bit pointless?

  • Just installed PRO 7, is not working with Windows 8.1

    I just installed Acrobat Pro 7 on Windows 8.1
    Will not open any documents: "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000fd)"

    Not surprising, particularly if a 64-bit system. It needs to run in the 32-bit mode as a minimum. It may not run at all. I was successful with AA7 on Win7, both 32 and 64-bit systems. However, the Adobe PDF printer and AcroTray failed and a workaround was required. I only did it as a test and do not use that configuration anymore.
