Why can't I go to playback and there are two SE icons in Task Manager?

I'm having several problems after upgrading to SE 3.0. 
1.  Whenever I need to close SE in the Task manager, there are two SE icons under the Applications tab, is this normal?
2. I had a previous SE installed which was purchased with a USB DAQ device, no more than one year ago.  This error came from one of the old project, that used to work.  The error occurs while trying to RECORD  a waveform using SIGNAL TRIGGER.  Using DAQmx acquire and Configured for N SAMPLES, the program locks up showing "Recording" in the PROJECT window.  If I look at the log file, it continously logs, instead of stopping at my 1 s duration.  This problem resolves when I setup the acquired signal for CONTINUOUS SAMPLES, but it used to work before I upgraded the software.  (The software may have been the same version - it was only 1 year old.)
3.  Using a project with at least one logged file, SE locks up when I atttemp to go to the PLAYBACK mode.  No error message, just an hour glass and PLAYBACK highlighted.
Thanks for your help.

Scott M,
1)  In task manager there are two Signal Express icons one should be LabVIEW (more square) and one Signal Express (more round).  I am not sure why you are closing signal express via task manager, but if you have to then this is what you are expected to see.
2) When you have N samples set it will take (Samples to Read / Rate) seconds to complete the task.  It will then close after completeing that but it will not close mid task.  Continous however will simply stop at the time limit you specify.
3)  Is it any logged file?  How long have you waited?  Is this a new pc?  Can you post screenshots?  
Sincerely,

  • I can't exit full screen mode and there are no navigation areas like I used to have.

    I just loaded Foxfire 4.0. I tried out full screen mode and cannot get back to the original mode. Even more annoying is that there doesn't seem to be any way to open new tabs or show the items that I used to keep at the top of my start screen. It's annoying enough to have to learn a new version without having to start from scratch as it were. Why can't new versions let you keep some of the old familiar places from before??? I'm seriously considering trying to go back to my old version. HELP ME!!

    You could go back to the old version but it is relatively easy to make firefox 4 look and behave more like firefox 3.6, although there could be disadvantages in doing that. see [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]]
    Keyboard key '''F11 should toggle full screen on or off''' as before
    Touching the top edge of the screen with the mouse pointer should also display toolbars.
    The menubar and bookmarks toolbar do not display by default in firefox 4, if you are not using a Mac it will display the firefox button. Alt or f10 will temporarilly display the menubar toolbar, even if the firefox button is displayed, from the option
    * '''View -> toolbars -> [x] menu bar [x]bookmarks toolbar'''
    you may set the bars to display permenantly if you wish.
    Another change is the''' tabs on top''' again settable from the view menu or the firefox button. see [[why are tabs on top]]

  • TS4213 Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?

    Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?
    Examples of what is going on:
    1. In Pages, Numbers & Keynote, when I go to the media browser the Audio section reads "Open iTunes to populate this list" even after iTunes has been opened, .xml file has been replaced/repaired, etc  AND Photo section reads "Open iPhoto to see photos from your iPhoto Library in this list" even after iPhoto Library has been replaced and new default library created.
    2. In iMovie, similar thing ... when I go to add photos or music to a movie the iTunes files aren't present and the iPhoto photos are missing with similar messages as in #1.
    3. In iPhoto, similar thing ... when I go to add music to a slideshow it says to "Open iTunes to populate this list".
    It is shocking to me that Apple would let something as simple as a pathway link to associated library files get this messed up on an upgrade, but what's even more surprising is that with the number of people who seem to be having this particular issue (and I can tell from all the research that I've done for weeks online that there are a lot of them) that there doesn't seem to be a single clear answer to fixing it anywhere on these community support forums.  Most of what I've seen is rehashed advice from outdated issues.  What I need is a simple answer to how do we get these programs to look for the correct location of the photo and music files because I sure can't seem to find any logical place to do that through the programs' preferences files or the system preferences window?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    P.S. Here's the details on the software/hardware:
    MacBook Pro
    Mac OS X
    Version 10.7.5
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    iTunes 11.0.4 (4)
    iPhoto '11 9.4.3 (720.91)
    iMovie '11 9.0.9 (1795)
    Keynote '09 5.3 (1170)
    Pages '09 4.3 (1048)
    Numbers '09 2.3 (554)

    I have the same problem on a new MacBook Pro. I have not been able to access the iTunes library from iPhoto since I got this computer. I looked in the Preferences file and deleted the com.apple.iApps.plist but there was no com.apple.iApps.lockfile so I just deleted the iAPPs.plist and rebooted the computer.  Still no iTunes available in iPhoto.
    All my music is in iTunes and plays. After reading the above I brought up Pages and I was able to access music and insert a track into a document.
    Do you have any suggestions.

  • This latest version of Firefox is complete pants! Why can I no longer have a nice, tidy little row of icons across the top so that I click and find things at an instance like I could with the Google Toolbar?

    This latest version of Firefox is complete pants! Why can I no longer have a nice, tidy little row of icons across the top so that I can click and find things at an instance, like I could with the Google Toolbar?
    Example:- I've just spent 20 minutes looking how to 'translate' after I installed that add-on, there it was! A tiny little icon in the bottom right of the screen, I find the new set up very messy and very hard to navigate. Why can't I have the same set up on my toolbar that I've had for the last ten years? It's that bad that I'm even considering going back to I.E.
    Jon T

    Thanks but you're only telling me stuff I already know, that dosen't explain how I get the new version of Firefox to look neat and tidy like it always used to. I can no longer have all my icons that I use, I can no longer access things as easily as I could and the whole thing looks very bare and basic now! A bigger mess than even Google Chrome.
    I've spent most of this evening trying to get stuff back that is now lost because of this 'upgrade' and I'm now giving up with it. Well done! You've totally ruined what was the best browser for years.

  • I am unable to apply my downloaded update. When I try to apply it and restart firefox, it still says 'apply downloaded update now...'. Why can't I apply this update and what do I do about it?

    I am unable to apply my downloaded update. When I try to apply it and restart firefox, it still says 'apply downloaded update now...'. Why can't I apply this update and what do I do about it?

    Checked out that link and everything seems to be in order on this machine at this time.
    I only have CC installed on this one machine, not even my secondary machine like is permitted. it seems odd that I'm asked to re-accept the Licence Agreement as often as I am. If I had to guess, it's almost every week, if not multiple times some weeks, that all the software will decide I should have to view the licence agreement.
    Edit: I've never had any noticeable "errors" activating or anything like that. I just get asked to do it quite frequently.
    This activation screen isn't too annoying (it involves clicking one single button), but like I stated earlier, if I'm trying to launch the software by double-clicking on a PSD, AI, PPROJ, AEP, etc... that file will fail to open.
    I feel like that's probably not really a bug, but it is frustrating, since I did launch the application with the intent to edit that specific file I tried to open.
    Again, something that you guys may consider working on.
    Another annoyance is that: agreeing to the licence agreement is a per-application task, so if I see that Licence Agreement dialogue window by opening Photoshop (for example), I know that every other piece of software I have in the suite (Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects, Audition) will be showing me that screen on it's next launch. Probably deliberate for legal purposes that I can't just agree once for the whole suite, but heck, it would save me a lot of minor headaches if it was a unified agreement.

  • Why can't EXS find my instruments and samples?

    Why can't EXS find my Instruments and Samples?
    LPX 10.0.7
    I have had issues with this problem before, and have spent a few hours looking throughout the many related threads on this forum and on Logic Pro Help without finding a workable solution.  So I will jump in again and hope for someone to shed some light on this.
    Here is the scenario- I have two rigs, one in my studio and another on my laptop (2.5 gh Intel core 2 Duo with 4GB RAM). I have a duplicate of my sample library on a portable drive, which I take with me when I'm using my laptop. I recently copied a Project I'm working on from the portable drive to my main system. When I open the project, I get a message telling me that certain (not all) EXS files are not found.
    Some further pertinent info:
    I have not saved the EXS files with the project- the project uses a sizable template and that would be cumbersome.
    All of the EXS instruments/samples in the Project are there on both my internal sample drive and the portable drive.
    The aliases linking my Application support Logic folder and the sample drive are correct and in place.
    This happens whether I have the portable drive mounted on my main rig or not. And whether I open the Project from the portable drive or from the copy on the internal drive.
    I have reindexed the internal sample drive with Spotlight. Didn't help.
    I have refreshed the Instrument menu from within EXS. Didn't seem to do anything.
    Anyone?

  • Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install.

    Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install? This happens only in Safari. I have tried changing my security preferences but it doesn't help.

    missyzz,
    which version of OS X is installed on your Mac, and which version of Adobe Reader do you have installed? Did you ensure that all of your browsers were not running when you’d installed Adobe Reader?
    To use Preview to open PDFs, download the PDFs to your Mac, and then use Preview to open the PDFs locally. Since you can open PDFs in Firefox, it sounds like you don’t need the Preview workaround.

  • Why can't Adobe continue to support and create updates.....

    Why can't Adobe continue to support and create updates for MAC G5 OS X Tiger?
    I'm sure I'm not the ONLY owner and operator of this MAC machine. I'm finding it
    VERY frustrating how your comany, JAVA and Apple of just written this machine off.
    You know, MAYBE I'd be more understanding if this MAC product or ALL MAC
    products weren't so reliable. However, like many MAC users out there
    there's NOTHING wrong with my machine or my current programs OTHER than the
    simple fact I can no longer update Flash player or Java... all because
    my machine is no longer supported.
    WHY can't updates continue to be made? This way,ALL consumers are happy:
    those who feel it wasteful economically and ecologically to
    replace a computer with a NEW computer, and those who just like to have the latest
    and greatest tech toys.

    You can - click on the "Actions" link at bottom left of the post.
    As to the rest - nobody seems to like this forum, and what you're saying has been said on numerous occasions already.
    It's Adobe's fault for "buying in" this forum (sorry - "Social Business"  ) service, but it's Jive's fault for producing such a crappy solution in the first place.

  • Why can't I set month,date and time on my imessage?

    Why can't I set month, date and time on my imessage?

    The way the date/time was displayed was changed in iOS7. There had been numerous complaints about not having a date/time stamp on all posts, so it was changed to display the time for all by sliding the post to the left. They left the date stamp to show differently. I couldn't tell you what it does for posts more than a week old, as I never save my messages that long.
    Meg's post provides for software where you could move the SMS to the computer and it should contain a full date/time stamp on it.
