Why does Playback stop when I have an external MIDI channel?

I finally have to try to sync up external gear with Mainstage 2.2.2. This time it's sending midi clock to an Akai MPK25. I set up the external midi instrument channel, set the channel's midi out to port 1 on the Akai, set the Akai to external clock. The Akai seems to pick up the tempo (mostly) but my Playback instances that start with Play action cut out after about 1 measure (yes they're set to Loop).
Doesn't mater which instance. The clock keeps going but there's a substantial lag to the transport controls. After a few seconds I can retrigger the Playback that stopped and then it loops as it should.
As soon as I delete the external midi strip, everything is back to normal. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it fixable? Maybe an Akai thing?
I've wrestled with MS to get it gig-worthy for a year and some new bug always seems to pop up.
System:
iMac 20" Core2Duo 2GHz, 4GB RAM

I try 2/3 things.
- monitor sleep after 1 minute
- computer sleep after 3h
- itunes playing songs
.....after a minute, monitor sleep and so does itunes....
VLC doesn't have this issu (luckyly)....

Why does playback stop when my screen goes to sleep?

Hi guys,
I have a mid-2010 MBP with MAC OS X 10.7.3 and itunes10.5.3 (3).
I've started to get this strange issue. When monitor goes to sleep, itunes playback stops.
I tray to change enervy saver option and I did this,
- computer sleep after 3h
- monitor sleep after one minute.
- itunes plays music
After one minute, monitor goes to sleep and so does itunes, why this is happening to me ?!?!?
This thing makes me crasy, since with other program playback (see VLC) I don't get this.
Please somebody help me in undestanding and solving this!!!
Thanks
Riccardo

The problem is that in lion "monitor sleep" means HDMI sleep too. So when you're listening to music with HDMI when your monitor goes to sleep, so it does your HDMI and audio through it!!
That's really non sense

Why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)

why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)?

Hello again @st3lla,
I can understand the fear of messing up a computer when I first started seriously working on computers back in the early 90's I had to format and re-install my operating system twice a day for quite a while before I figured out a very important step (at least important for me), and that was after I made a change to my computer to restart it. This way if I messed something up I only had to undo one thing and not 50 because I went wild on it. lol
Anyways, do not be afraid of your computer all you need to do is learn that step, how to keep your personal items backed up and then of course how to re-install your computer back to factory and you can always start over with a fresh build.
On to your questions:
Q - What are the steps to ensure that all HP updates are done.
A - Simply review the HP Support document: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 8) and it will guide you through the process.
Q - What are the steps to ensure that all Windows updates are done?
A - Simply review the Microsoft Support document: Windows Update: Frequently Asked Questions and again you will find answers to this question. (***Note: Do not worry if the document refers to Windows 8.1 it is only an upgraded version of Windows 8 and the steps are the same)
I am also including a Windows Support document: Install the latest Windows 8.1 Update, which will guide you through how to install the Windows 8.1 update on your computer.
And finally, to put your mind at ease I am providing you with two important HP Support documents: Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8), and Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8), which will provide you with all the instructions you need to backup your personal files so you do not loose them if you ever do mess up the computer, as well as provide you with instructions on how to put your computer back to how it came from the factory.
Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you once again for your post on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
Also be sure to mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others who face the same challenge find the same solution.

Why does play stop when I close the Podcasts app - IOS 6

Whenever I leave the Podcasts app to answer an email, text, open Safari, etc., the podcast stops playing. This effectively stops me from using any other application on my phone, unless I want to also stop listening to the podcast. It won't continue playing in the background like the Music app did. Of course, this is an IOS 6 issue.
Ridiculous!!!
Am I missing something here?

I had the same problem the first night and my head almost exploded as playing podcasts is what my iphone is doing 95% of the time. I was also experiencing a lack of control not being able to jump back or ahead which was maddening. However, the next morning, after syncing the phone with my iTunes (on a MacBook Pro) all of this functionality was there, including the ability to have the podcasts continue when exiting the app and the ability to control them with an inline remote on my earbuds.
Hopefully, this problem has already resolved itself for you. Unfortunately, it is my understanding that there still is no option for playlists at this time.

Why does quicktime stop when i'm watching streaming video?

I've been using quicktime rather than the flip4mac plugin to watch my MLB-TV subscription in fullscreen mode. Everything works fine for about 9-10 minutes and then the video stops and starts over as if the file is done playing even though it is a live baseball game. Is there a reason for this that any of you can help me with? If i just refresh the MLB page it starts working again but it is a pretty annoying problem. Would upgrading to Quicktime Pro address this at all? thanks
-derek

That's tough. MLB-TV is a pay service so not everyone can go there to figure the problem out on that particular site. Does anyone have any ideas as to sites that would have a similar live streaming feed yet is free so i can post a link and have people see if they are having better luck?

Why does iust stop when installing mt.lion it says paused

will some one answer this quiston someone from apple cause been try ing to install for more than a week iknow iam not all that comupter savy but iam disabled had 8stroks 10 heart atts but not like thisneed help .

Best bet is inquire at http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact.html?form=account
If I remember correctly, the download isn't complete. You'll have to go back to the Mac Apple Store, log in, and click on the Purchases tab. Once there, you should be able to resume the download. Do note, when successful, the installer app will run. I strongly recommend quitting the installer app, saving a copy to safe place, and then relaunching the downloaded one, which resides in /Applications. If you run the installer w/o saving a copy, you'll be forced to download it again, wasting resouces (time, bandwidth, and electricity) if you have to reinstall or use the recovery system, since the ill-designed installer (just like Lion's) blows itself away during the installation process.

Why does mouse stop when pressing ctrl or shift

When using an 8175 controller and Windwos NT 4, the mouse will disappear and not come back if I use the shift key or the control key.

Hello,
I can't say that I have seen this issue before, but I would make sure that you have the correct drivers for your mouse, if it requires any. Some 3rd party mice need their own driver. Also make sure that there isn't a program that enables extra mouse features running that might be causing this behavior. Have you tried different mice? (PS/2, USB, etc) You might also want to upgrade to the latest version of the service pack for NT, I believe the most current is 6,

Why does video stop when a call comes in

I know the iPhone is a phone first and the rest follows, but it surprised me that the Iphone stopped recording a video I was making when a call came in.
I would like the choise to ignore the call an keep on recording.
I can't find a setting for this.
Info/help appriciated
iPhone 4S with latest iOs

Thanks GCSS-MC, I will do that in future. Still seems like a bug/flaw to me, but like I already wrote, maybe I must accept it's a phone first and video camera later..

Playback Stops when Audition in background (new query on this!)

Before the 3.01 upgrade, if I was playing back a file using EMU Patchmix DSP software with and EMU 1820 M and with the Audio Driver set as E-MU ASIO, I was able to make volume setting adjustments in the EMU Patchmix DSP software while Audition 3.0 was playing back. The key was the checkmark in the "Release ASIO Drive in Background" check box. I believe that 'unchecked' was the condition in that box to allow access to other programs while Audition was playing back. Now, it doesn't matter whether the box is checked or not, Audition stops playing back whenever one clicks on a window outside the Audition window.
Please help with a response to this problem.
James Brody

I've just been editing a photo in photoshop while playing back in Audition 3.0.1 - in other words, you seem to be experiencing a local difficulty - maybe it's to do with the Patchmix software? Does playback stop when Audition simply loses focus, never mind what else you then do (which is what you seem to be saying)?
Does the problem continue if you set the tickbox correctly, exit, and run the program again?

Why does Spotify stopped playing when i do something else like browse facebook, go see my messages?

why does Spotify stopped playing whenever i do something else on my phone like browse facebook, or read my phone messages, or open a link to read something? some other music apps like Jango lets you do whatever you want, but it keeps playing ur playlist.. i'm not even gonna mention how pitifully miniscule Spotify's music library is compared to this apps...ooops

Hi. I feel your pain my friend. This is so annoying it makes me want to cancel my "pro" subscription. I think it has to do with other audio from a web page (includes Facebook) overriding Spotify's audio. I have looked all over Spotify to see if there is an override the override setting. I can't find it. Maybe this bumps up this thread so we get some sort of answer. I wouldn't mind it even if we got it's not possible. At least then we'd know. That's the problem with forum posting - you never know if you're going to get an answer pee what kind of answer it may be. As the headline says this forum is not sourced from Spotify. hoibie
