Whats the problem here? Please help...
Hi everyone
Logic 8 & 9 struggling to cope with adding just 5 o6 6 instances of sample-based plug-ins, e.g. 2 x trilogy, 2 x KontaktPlayer, 2 x EastWest. It says memory is running low.
I'm running a Mac Pro 2.26 8-Core with 6GB RAM, I would have thought that that would be plenty. Leopard (will upgrade to Snow Leopard soon, but dont know if that will make any difference)
Is there something I'm doing wrong? Anything I should be doing?
Thanks
1) Yeah, Hans probably uses a lot of techniques like that that would surprise us... probably a lot of outboard stuff too which would certainly lighten his load a bit.
2) There's really nothing out there (in my small scope of knowledge) that can host AU's that's gonna be able to run 2 Trilogys, 2 Kontakts and 2 EastWests with no problems... those are all really hefty on the CPU and RAM since the libraries are so large.
What you may want to try with each of these is putting all, if any, AU effects to bus tracks that are not active while the track is being recorded. This will lighten the load for each instrument a little, also try using the app iFreeMem. It's worked for me in the past for clearing up minor RAM issues.
The real issue right now is that your instruments outweigh your software. Your hardware will handle anything the DAW can throw at it, but not many DAWs can throw that much.... You may want to consider using Nodes also... just a thought.

Can't figure out what the problem is, please help!
Hey, so I have a Mac Mini which I bought nearly 3 years ago. I've been running the latest system 10.6.6, when the issues started. Everything would just unexpectedly quit and occasionally, I'd get the "You need to re-start your computer..." grey screen, also the desktop would refresh itself and not open any folders or anything at all. Finder, Console, Dashboard Client, etc all quit,´and sometimes the nmblookup thing would pop up, but before I could click Allow or Deny, it'd dissappear again.
I ran the Hardware Test, and four times out of seven it said "No Trouble Found" while three times out of seven it gave me an error code starting with 4MEM. The system profiler, meanwhile, told me that both RAM cards were OK. I did the Hard Drive verification through Utilities and it gave me some problem starting with "Key..." and said it could not be repaired.
SO, I reformatted the HD as it suggested, deleting everything (I've got it backed up though). Then, I installed Snow Leopard again, and the issues were still present. It would Quit Unexpectedly freeze up, etc. So then I went and erased the hard-drive again, and a new partition was made automatically. After that, I tried installing the original software which came with the computer. Except that after Installation Disk 1 was finished, the computer restarted and then it was just a blue screen. Nothing. It didn't ask for the second disk or aything. I tried again, and in the middle of Disk 2 Installation the grey "You need to re-start..." screen came down. ***. Now, I can't seem to install ANY Mac OS X on my computer, not what it came with, not the Snow Leopard, nothing.
Again, Hardware Tests tells me everything is ok, and the Hard Drive also says there's nothing to repair. Then what is this? I don't even know what it could be anymore! Please help if you have an idea of what this might be! Unfortunally, at the moment I have no money to send it to the repair so they'd check=/
Thanks in advance, any help would be greatly apreciated!Oh ok, well that was what the test said prior to reformatting the hard drive. Now, it doesn't find any trouble no matter how many times I run it. That's what has me so confused, everything seems to check out and yet...I can't do anything, not even install the software!

Hi wdriver,
It seems like due to some unknown reason permission from the Licensing folder is removed. Please try launching any of the apps by right clicking and select Run as an Administrator, it should fix the issue by doing that.
Please let us know if it helps.

My ipad is connected to my wifi, however when i try to sign my ipad into facetime is says that it is having trouble connecting. I use my wifi to get on the internet on my iPad so i have no idea what the problem is. Help Me
- Did it successfully connect to the network before?
- Do other devices successfully connect to the network now?
- Does you iPod successfully connect to other networks?
- Have you reset your iPod?
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset network connections: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- Powered off and then back on your router
- The troubleshooting here:
iPhone and iPod touch: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
-When you restored you iPod did you restore to factory defaults/new iPod? If not try that.
- If you look at the network properties on the iPod what IP address is assigned when you think you are connected but actually have no internet connection. If it starts with 169 then the iPod never connected to the router, the 169 address are self assigned. -
My ipod touch keeps getting restarted. Be it while playing games or listening to music or browsing thru the app store. Whats the problem here?
Oh, you do one thing, back up your iPod to iTunes. Plug your iPod to the iTunes and when it appears under devices tree on the sidebar, right click on it, and back it up.
After the backup completes, jus click on restore button. If required it will download the latest iOS from the servers (Might take sometime) and after it's downloaded, it will erase all your data and settings, restoring to factory settings.
After you have completed restoring the iPod, jus set it up as new iPod.
Sync back all the apps, music, movies.
And make sure you quit the apps, by double clicking the home button and pressing and holding the app icons and clicking on
This should help your problem anyhow!
It might be a case that the files in the apps, or the preferences might be corrupted, jus to be safe, we have a backup. -
it shows in the disk utilities but does not allow me to find a problem or fix the problem? Please help. also my external hard drive is a seagate free agent go, 500GB. it is visible on my tv but has no files in it… i'm scared i've lost everything?
Honestly i cannot remember sorry, i got it like 5 maybe 6 yrs ago and just started downloading things to it as the memory on the computer started filling up and when i wanted to see photos/videos on my TV.
My wife did tell me after i had written this post that she did try and record TV to it as it was plugged in. I think by doing so somehow has deleted everything. It reads on my TV yet has no files in it but won't show up on my computer. hope this helps.
Starting to think it is going to cost more to retrieve files on it than it will be to buy a newer and larger one. -
My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help. I can't find my answer on the Internet.
By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position! -
trying to buy more storage on the cloud, response is 'there was a problem - try again later' its been doing this over the last two hours - any ideas what the 'problem' is please (assuming its not me) - thanks
Additional info on this:
I strongly suspect this is time machine-related. Even though time machine has been turned off, this happens at intervals of exactly one hour.
A single entry appears in the kernel log at the precise moment the (first) popup error box appears. This is:
"AppleSRP started."
Anyone have any clue how to go about diagnosing or fixing this? I don't even mind trying something brute force (short of wiping the HD and reinstalling lion, which I really DON'T want to do; I don't mind a non-destructive reinstall). -
Is my iPhone 4 greyed out wifi and non working bluetooth software or hardware... seems that the forums are full of this issue with no consistent or official answer. is it all coincidence that so many are having the problem? Please help... I have scoured the net trying everything the last few days.
Please correct your porfile: iPhone 4 do not have IOS 6.1.4.
The usual troubleshooting steps are, also remember to test it after every step:
1. Restart
2. Reset
3. Restore from backup
4. Restore as new.
If no joy, make an Appointment with the Apple genius and have them evaluate -

Run this web based browser scan, it will tell you in red and provide a link to the download page.

Also another great free program is OnyX, just run everything, cleans your machine out on a system level.
You can cancel the reboot to run another cleaning section, just make sure you reboot at the end before using the computer.

Also use the Firefox web browser, it's insanely faster, the fasest of all browsers. The choice of Add-ons is numerous, personalization is just awesome. Everything can be changed, moved around etc. Persona's, themes etc. Just insane.
Not only that, Firefox is for Windows, OS X and Linux, the same browser on all.

Tried to log into my FaceTime account, but keep on getting "password incorrect" message. Restarted iPad as suggested by posted comments but still no positive result. Tried alternative email accounts such as @me.com but also no positive result. Please help.
Well after two attempts at trying to repair Facetime and iMessage by restoring my iPad, I am still left with the same outcome, no Facetime or iMessage. What I think has happened is when I first set up my iPad I used a different password, now that i have changed my password and cannot remember the old one I cannot access eitehr application. Whast strange is that you would think that when changing my password it would change the password on all devices when doing the synch from iTunes. For some reason this has not happened and the old password is still intact in Facetime and iMessage. I even tried backing up twice, the first time from iCloud and secondly from my Mac but even this has not resolved the problem. I also set up my iPad as a "new" iPad and this also had no impact. still struggling to resolve this, would appreciate help if anyone out there has a solution or something else I can try. i have run out of ideas.

Crazy problem here - Please help?
Hey Guys,
I was helping a friend to install some apps and widgets on her 15 Inch PowerBook G4. One of the things I installed was the "SecondaryTrackpadClick" package... after that it requested for a restart so I restarted it.
Now, the computer boots up and gets to the login screen... the trackpad responds but the keyboard is unresponsive.
Some of the keys on the keyboard work... like lowering or rising the volume (it even shows the animation on the screen) or changing the brightness... but the rest of the keys don't seem to do anything!
Please help, I am stuck at the login screen... everything else works, the lights light up, the controls work... but the keyboard keys (characters and numbers) are frozen. I can't log in because it prompts for the password and I can not type it in.
Any ideas?
I already tried resetting the PRAM and PMU, still the same.
Thanks for your help.I'm not going to be able to hang around very long tonight, so let's get to the point . . .
What exactly did you install on your friend's machine? Did you just install the SecondaryTrackpadClick package, or did you install any other Intel-based software?
If you just installed the one package (and I won't ask where you got it), then what you've essentially done is replace the kext file(s) for the trackpad with (a) file(s) that are unusable in that machine. To replace the file(s), you will need to have use of your keyboard. Since you can't use the PowerBook's keyboard, you will have to try to use Keyboard Viewer, which is a virtual keyboard that is a part of Mac OS X.
If there is a national flag icon (e.g., American, English, Spanish, . . .) in the menu bar on your friend's machine, then you will be able to activate and use Keyboard Viewer with a mouse cursor. Just click on the flag and choose Keyboard Viewer.
If there is no flag icon in the menu bar, then you will have to activate it in System Preferences > International > Input Menu. Open that pane, check Keyboard Viewer at the top of the window, and check the box, 'Show input menu in the menu bar' at the bottom of the window.
If you are unable to get to the desktop because you have to log in and you can't type, you will have to try booting into safe mode, holding down the Shift key immediately after the startup chime to see if the new kernel extension you installed is prevented from loading, thus allowing you to type. If that works, enable Keyboard Viewer from safe mode, and also go to System Preferences > Accounts and enable Automatic Login for an Admin User of the machine. Then reboot normally, go to the flag icon in the menu bar, open Keyboard Viewer, and use the mouse to click the keys you need to type to download and install Pacifist which is available at http://www.charlessoft.com/
Pacifist is a utility that will enable you to extract particular files from the Install disc(s) and reinstall them on your computer so that you don't have to reinstall your entire OS. What you need to do is figure out what was installed, what was replaced, and then you need to trash what was installed and extract the replaced file(s) from the Install disc that came with the computer or from the Mac OS X 10.4 retail package.
EDIT: You may be able to figure out what was installed by SecondaryTrackpadClick.pkg by Control-clicking on its installer .pkg file and choosing Show Package Contents from the contextual menu that opens. Navigate through the Contents to locate the items that may have been installed. (You can also use Pacifist to navigate that .pkg file.)
Pacifist comes with good documentation. Read it, and try to follow the instructions given by the user in the linked topic above:
. . . Insert your OS X disk (DVD or CD) and locate the missing AppleADBKeyboard.kext file with the help of Pacifist. Install it. Then download and install the latest [10.4.7] Combo update. Do not use SoftwareUpdate, but download it from the provided link. Then, repair permissions and cross your fingers. -
