USB Mic Shows up but not working

I have a USB mic to be used for dictation. When I had Tiger it would show up and when I would select it as an input device I would get "bars" on the sound control panel, but never really worked for recording. Now on Snow Leopard it shows up on my device list, but I can't actually use it as an input or output device, no sound comes out. It is a Philips SpeechMike II and I know that they don't have a mac driver. However, I didn't know if anybody has any suggestions to get it to work. It is essentially the only thing left that doesn't work on my Mac (vs a work PC). I have tried the Linein software with no success. Any suggestions??? Thanks.

Does it show up in the "Input" tab of "Sound" system preference? If you move the volume slider to the right, does sound make the bars move? You can record with QuickTime Player. Select "New Audio Recording" in its "File" menu. Move the volume slider to the right in the recording window to hear the microphone.

Orico USB 3 Card seen but not working

I have a Mac Pro 2008 with OS X 10.8.3 and I just installed an ORICO PFU3-4P PCIe USB 3.0 card because I read on another thread on here that because it used the Fresco 1100 chipset, OS X would see it natively.
Well, now that I have it plugged in, my Mac Pro sees it, but anything I connect to it (from HDD docking stations to USB 2.0 flash drives) it cannot see.
It does see it and says it has a driver.
Any help would be really appreciated.

Does that mean with the 3rd party driver that you don't need external power? With the latest Mountain Lion and Mavericks I have found that I don't need external drivers. I've just checked the specifications and a 4 port USB3 card might need to supply 6A whereas the PCI-E limit seems to be 3A. Also PCI-E only provides 12V and 3.3V but USB needs a 5V supply so even if the power was OK, I can see that you might need a proper 5V supply to make the card work. Anyway I've installed 2 of these cards now, and once you've worked out how to route the cable properly then getting power from the Molex connector in the optical bay is actually straightforward, and if both optical bays are in use then you can just use a splitter like SiliconSam suggested.I'm just relived that it all seems to work properly because USB3 seems about double the speed when used with external hard drives. I even found some instructions here:

Does your plan with your cell provider allow this? Just because the option is there does not mean it will work if your plan does not support it.

Luke, many of the peripials such as cameras, printers, scanners, some will plug right in and work.
Others, need to plugged in and restart your computer,for them to work.
and last but not least some need there own drivers to operate correctly.
Those that need drivers normally come with an insallation CD for this purpose... Cheers...Don

one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working . May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Hi, is this a question" Post?
or are you just offering an insight into your Mouse Issue?
Generally and at times we all have little idiosyncrasies appearing with the running of our Macs.
I use the same Logitech BT with my MBP. MB & iBook..(not at the same time) Only ever had one issue
and the cure was to completely Delete the mouse from BT -> Repair Permissions & Reboot then Re Install the BT mouse..Ihave just put a new set of batteries in the Logitech (only 2nd set ever)...L

Finder shows some but not all files in a folder

In some circumstances, Finder only shows some (but not all) of the files in a folder. Why?
I notice this with Excel autosave files in the Office 2011 Autorecovery folder (Macintosh HD ▸ Users ▸ Conor ▸ Library ▸ Application Support ▸ Microsoft ▸ Office ▸ Office 2011 AutoRecovery). In my case, Finder shows 34 files but "ls" in a Terminal window reports 40 files. The missing files do not start with a period (.) and have the same permissions as other files that show in Finder (-rw-r--r--@ 1 <myname> staff). Here's the last four lines of "ls -al" - the first two appear in Finder, but not the last two:
-rw-r--r--@ 1 myname staff    55296 8 Oct 2013 Word Work File D_1239425731.tmp
-rw-r--r--@ 1 myname staff    55296 8 Oct 2013 Word Work File D_1240072173.tmp
-rw-r--r--@ 1 myname staff    52796 13 Feb 11:08 safe1.xlk
-rw-r--r--@ 1 myname staff    95320 12 Mar 16:06 safe2.xlk
I have tried copying files from this folder to another folder, and/or changing their names. They still do not appear in Finder, nor are they visible in the File Open dialog of applications, even when the dialog is listing other files in that directory - but if I manually type the name into the File Open dialog, the app manages to find and open the file.
If I Spotlight-search for the file name, or search in Finder, without specifying that specific directory ("This Mac"), the file is not found, but if I direct the Finder search at that particular directory, then the search returns the relevant files.
So: why does Finder hide certain files when showing a folder, even though it can find and show those files if you specifically ask for them?
Now using OSX 10.10 (Yosemite), but I'm pretty sure I noticed this on OSX 10.8 as well.

So simple - thanks. I'd not been aware of the hidden flag, and now I've found the -O option on ls to display it.
Follow-on question: I now see that you can change the system-wide defaults to display hidden files with this...
     defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -boolean true ; killall Finder
...but is there a way to specify this on a per folder basis? I'm happy enough to hide hidden files in general, but it would be nice if I could set an attribute/flag/whatever on the Office AutoRecovery directory that told Finder "in this folder, always display hidden files". Can I do this?

Windows reports that the "USB-IF xHCI USB Host Controller" device is not working properly.

I have been receiving the following error and instructions to fix it for a long time now, prior to updating to Windows 8.1:
A device is not working properly
Windows reports that the "USB-IF xHCI USB Host Controller" device is not working properly.
Recommended solution to the problemUse Windows Update to check whether new device drivers are available. Proceed as follows:
Open Device Manager
Search in the device manager for the device whose driver you would like to update and double-click on the device name. You may first have to enable the "Show hidden devices" entry in the "View" menu.
Switch to the Driver tab, click Update driver and follow the instructions
When I follow the instructions and try to update the driver, I am told "The best driver software for your device is already installed."
How do I update the driver to stop receiving the error?
This question was solved.

Android kitkat issue in loading swf file from device. URL found but not working

Hi,
I am facing one issue from a very long time regarding file access in Android Kitkat version 4.4.*. I have developed Adobe Air player application for android and it is working as expected below kitkat version but not on kitkat.
I am following this methods -
NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(InvokeEvent.INVOKE, onInvoke);
public function onInvoke(event:InvokeEvent):void
                                    var newFile:String = String(event.arguments[0]);
                                    trace("Received new file from Android: "+newFile)
Received URL form device in Android Kitkat -
/storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Animation/27 031_1_Welcome screen.swf
file:////storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Anim ation/27031_1_Welcome screen.swf
                - Loading this URL using loader class in AS3 AIR but not working.
file%3A///storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Ani mation/27031_1_Welcome%20screen.swf
       - Have used also by doing escape character but still it is not working showing file not found both SWF and mp4 case. (Mp4 case NetStream.Play.FileNotFound)
By using the above methods I can have swf or mp4 video url but when I am loading it, It is not working giving error message "File not found/ IO Error". I have read that if use escape character then it will work but I have used escape character also but it is not working.
Humble request you to please advise how can I solve this issue.
Best regards,
Sunil Kumar

Starting in KitKat, Google requires that applications have permission to access files on the system. You must specifically add either the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE or WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions in order to access files. Adding either one of those permissions should let you read/access files on the device. Prior to KitKat, you didnt have to have these permissions listed in the manifest to access files.

Show/hide bahavior not working in firefox or safari

Here is my problem. The show hide behavior incorporated in DW
CS3 is working fine in IE6 and 7 but not working at all in firefox
and safari (both latest version). I have tried it on different
event but nothing.
My web site is configured that if someone click on details, a
layer will become visible and the details will be showed. I know
there is a work around and the simplest would be to have a new
window open but this is not the style I want.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Page is working ok in chrome and IE but not working in firefox. jquery problem i guess

http://184.170.251.149/raschet-shkafa-kupe
this page is working correctly in chrome and IE but not working in firefox, i cant click and of the dropdown menus(ДСП, доличество дверей). it was working perfectly prior firefox 18. can you please fix the compatibility problem ?

I was referring to the second page in my above post.
I disabled JavaScript as a test after loading the page with JavaScript enabled and that worked.<br />
I also get the selects to open if I right-click instead of left-click the select.<br />
That way the select get selected (shows a focus ring) and after that left-clicking works as well .
This assumes that JavaScript is monitoring the left-click, but that script no longer works properly.

After upgard to IOS7 mic of ipad2 is not working

after upgard to IOS7 mic of ipad2 is not working,

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

Don't panic. OS X 10.5.8 is the most popular PowerPC OS out there. People run it everyday without security breaches, including myself. It isn't Windows!
If you're really that worried, I highly recommend Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition. Supports PowerPC & Intel and Mac OS X 10.4-10.7.
