Yamaha Dgx 220 iPad help

Hello everyone,
Last week after graduation, my aunt gave me the new iPad, which I love very much. I am currently using it to work on a movie project for a scholarship, and I'm using GarageBand for the audio. I wanted to use my Yamaha DGX 220 to record the instrumental. I first tried to record but as you may have guessed it turned out very badly. I then tried to use the Apple camera connection kit to connect the Yamaha keyboard to my iPad. Unfortunately I received the message that this USB device is not supported. I tried to look online for a solution but I could not find one for the iPad. For macs, it was suggested that an intermediary box of some kind be used. Would this work for the iPad? I would hate to go out and buy unnecessary hardware.
Thank you all in advance for your help,
-M65

is it a DGX-220 or PSR-220? My PSR has an OUTPUT on the back (to run to an amp) - simply run a standard guitar type cable (1/4" jacks) from the OUTPUT on your keyboard into your Mac's LINE IN (using a cheap Radio Shack 1/4" -> 1/8" mini adapter) and you can use the built-in sounds this way... Set it up as a REAL INSTRUMENT. Be sure to turn MONITOR on so you can hear yourself

Connecting Yamaha DGX-500

I just bought an M-Audio interface and i have it attached with midi cables to my yamaha dgx-500. I have the interface on, the cables plugged in, my yamaha on and in the midi setting. The mac has no problem recognizing my interface and that there's a midi device plugged into it, but I still can't get the yamaha to work with garage band. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hey Jman & Hangtime,
Did you guys ever resolve this. I have the same problem a Roland XP10. GB sees it and interacts via my midisport just fine, but I am limited in the voices to a standard midi set; I can't get all of the voices that I can get just by playing the Roland.
Midi from Roland to midisport. Usb from midisport to MBpro. And visa versa.
By the way, this post is being done from memory; I am not in front of it right now. I'm going to try some of the tips I found in these forums when I get a chance, and make sure its not just me being dingy.
Thanks in advance.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

Patch list for Yamaha DGX-505?

I need a patch list to paste into the Environment window so I can access the voices on my Yamaha DGX-505 keyboard (rather than the GM MIDI). I looked on the Yamaha website and could not find one; hopefully it exists.

yeah, i've got the jv1080 with latin, session and orchestral boards.
but the jv1080 is in the multi instrument, when you make new -> multi instrum,ent. just initialize the multi for jv1080. that should bring up the presets (4 banks) i think. if not give us your email address and i will post you my multi instrument. no problem.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs. I have previously suggested ways to recover contacts, calendars etc, and other users have confirmed that they work, as such I am making the following suggestions to recover lost notes, but please note, as yet success is unconfirmed.
Recovering your notes is quite time consuming, you may wish not to save all your notes to save some time, if they are not of importance.
    1.    Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
    2.    Start the restore from iCloud back up.
    3.    Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
    4.    As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
    5.    Wait for the time out confirmation.
    6.    Open the 'Notes' app, and open your first note (assuming your deleted notes have now been restored).
    7.    Select the share option at the foot of the screen (rectangle with arrow) and choose mail.
    8.    Send the email to yourself (If they won't send, save them to draft)
    9.    Repeat steps 7 & 8, until you have copied all the notes you wish to save to email.
    10.    Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
    11.    Navigate to settings > iCloud and make sure 'Notes' syncing is enabled.
    12.    Open the 'Notes' app, check that iCloud notes have reverted to how they were before starting the restore.
    13.    Open the 'Mail' app and open the first email you sent yourself and copy the text you want in the note.
    14.    Open the 'Notes' app and create a new note in the iCloud, paste the text you copied.
    15.    Go to iCloud.com on a computer and check that the note has synced to iCloud.
    16.    Repeat steps 12, 13 & 14 until you have recovered all your notes.
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.

Yamaha DGX-500 MIDI ... I have a bad feeling about this

Hi,
I am attempting to setup the Yamaha DGX-500 through my Macbook Pro to GarageBand 3. I have searched the forums and found that Yamaha is particularly problematic.
The Yamaha is connected through a M-Audio Midisport Uno USB-MIDI connector. I went to M-Audio's site and downloaded and installed the latest drivers (3.2.2). The Uno appears fine through the Audio Midi Setup panel. I connect up the keyboard and start to record. The first few notes are okay, but I have lots of missing notes and other notes sustain forever.
Other threads have suggested replacing the Uno with the Yamaha UX-16. I don't believe I will be able to return the Uno, so I would prefer to make it work if possible.
Any other suggestions or troubleshooting ideas I could try?
Thanks.

MidiSport UNO to GarageBand with Yamaha DGX-500

Ok, I'm having serious trouble getting my set up to work. I own a MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz (10.6.3) with 2 GB RAM, a Yamaha DGX-500 keyboard, and MIDI Sport UNO (newest model, latest drivers). I've connected the MIDI IN cable to the MIDI OUT on the keyboard and the MIDI OUT on the cable to the MIDI IN on the keyboard (and vice versa). The Audio MIDI setup recognizes both configurations, but seems to work better when the cable IN is connected to the keyboard IN. When I launch GarageBand, it recognizes that there is one MIDI input available. However, the software instrument tracks fail to produce any sound from the keyboard on the computer. The MIDI Sport UNO's LED illuminates that USB and MIDI IN are connected, but not MIDI OUT.
I'm totally in the dark about what I could be doing wrong. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Since GB doesn't send any midi data out, the only connection you need between the keyboard and the interface is the keyboard's midi out to the interface's midi in.
When you have plugged everything in, does the little blue dot in the lower right corner of the LED window light up when you play a note?

Logic pro 8. yamaha DGX-640

i am using logic pro 8. i just bought a yamaha DGX-640 and want to have the piano's sounds recorded. i have done the obvious , plug it directly with a guitar cord into one of the adio channels but wanted to get it in with usb to a midi channel. is there a way to do that. what settings , if you know, do i need to set the piano at. the manuel, that came with the piano, is not very helpful

Automation data is always absolute unless the SNAP function is selected (which it is not!)
If these were automatic entries, why would they vary in EVERY case? The example shown varies by 0.3db but in others on the same automation recording at relatively similar speed of movement they may vary by 1db or even as much as 2db in some cases!!!!
Strangely, when editing the 1st of the two nodes by hand (lets say they are 15.9db and 16.2db respectively) the first node will never exactly match the second in value! i.e the next step from 15.9db would be 16.4db. Even worse - in the automation event list the values are shown as whole numbers without decimals!

Are you using a MIDI interface? You'll need to do that and make sure you have the latest (i.e. working) drivers downloaded into your computer for it.

Two Apple IDs entered into one iPad- help needed!

My wife used to have an Apple ID (let's call it the 'first' ID) on her iPad and had bought many games. Recently she decided to change her Apple ID as the email address for the 'first' ID was now an account that she never used. So she changed her Apple ID in settings-App Store to her recently acquired icloud email address. (The 'second' account.) So now half the apps she has are from the first account and half the apps are from the second account.
this worked fine until the apps from the first account started to need updating. It didn't help that the first account's actual email address needed to be changed as it was forgotten so many times. Basically none of the games/apps from the first account will update and therefore cannot be played. I THINK I have managed to reset her first account email password.
so..... Is there a way to upgrade the older games with the first Apple ID while still keeping all the new games on the second account without deleting any of them or disabling the newer second account going forwards..?
your help in this matter is really appreciated!!
thanks.

How do I get past "Unable to Verify Hotmail Account Information" on iPad2? Can't retrieve my Hotmail e-mails from my iPad, Help!

Bought a new iPad2 with wi-fi access. I am at home on my wi-fi network using iPad. Trying to add my Hotmail account to the iPad so I can retrieve my e-mail messages. When I try to add the Hotmail e-mail account to the iPad, I select Windows Live Hotmail on the iPad. I then enter my Hotmail e-mail address and Hotmail password in the iPad. The iPad then says Verifying. Then a box pops up saying "Hotmail Account, Unable To Verify Account Information". I spent about an hour on the phone with iPad support and they tried everything they could to no avail. iPad support said I would need to contact Hotmail support. I have learned that Hotmail does not have a support phone number that you can call, only a search area that is of no help. I am able to log onto my Hotmail e-mail account no problem on my regular computer. I was able to program my wife's Comcast.net e-mail into the iPad no problem and bring up her e-mail on the iPad. I can not get past the "Unable to verify Hotmail Account Information" message on the iPad. Frustrated, want to be able to retrieve my Hotmail e-mail messages from my iPad, please help! Thank you.

My hotmail was working properly until one month ago , then I do not what happens ... My mistake has been to cancel that account and try to re-load it... I am blocked at "unable to verify account details".
I read and follow carefully all your steps here above but it is not working!!
I also try to ask securiry code to mocrosoft and put it instead of hotmail password when creating new Ipad account but nothing.
I try to go everywhere on microsfot pages and on my mail account setting but I can not find any help from there. From PC is working
I try to choose "other" from the list of account and insert there hotmail account, both indicated adsHOTMAIL or OUTLOOK, but in this case it tells me "username or password for POP3.live.com are uncorrect.... what is POP3.live.com??
I already try everything find in the net here and elsewhere ... I have hotmail account since years can not thik to change it .... Some other help?? Some indication I have not yet try?
Why does not appear OUTLOOOK from the choice of default account in the "add account section"????!??!????

I'm concerned about semantics and I'd hate for you or anyone else to misunderstand and get into trouble. It bothers me that you use the verbiage "Changing the ID..." You are changing the NAME of an ID. ALL changes are made here. Click on "Manage your account."
No - I should apologize for using that terminology, but I think I finally got it through my thick skull. You can change the NAME of the ID and that does not mean you are creating a new ID - you are simply changing the name. That is what I meant in my post above.
I know where to change the "information" if needed. I had to reset my password a few months back and its easy enough to do and it went smoothly with no issues. I have no intention or any need to change the name of my ID. I'm just trying to keep the information straight in my own mind.
