It’s not fixed as of 10.5.5 (sigh)

Hi! I have an edirol USB audio interface and after 10.5.4, still having playback issues.

When something tries to read from DVD driver, the sound cuts off and I have to configure the defult output to the built-in device and then to the Edirol again to get the sound back.

Any hints on this?

Oh yeah — before performing the above surgery, I did an Archive and Install of Leopard 10.5.3. I’ve been told this often smooths out many user issues.

Oh yeah — turns out you can’t run Tiger on any Mac that comes shipped with Leopard. You CAN run Leopard on a Mac that comes with Tiger. So this striped cat goes back into the sea…

Not that anyone’s following this thread anymore…but fwiw, my problems with Leopard on a MacBook (2Ghz, rev 3,1) that came with Leopard installed — appear to have been solved. My specific problem was that after updating to 10.5.3, I could no longer access my MIDI Setup app, and therefore could no longer configure my controller (an Edirol PCR-M1). Needless to say, this sucked!

I went about removing all MIDI drivers from their folders (in both the main and user directories), except for the Emagic drivers that came with Leopard…thinking that they should probably stay put (cautious noob that I am). Still, no access to the MIDI Setup portion of the Audio/MIDI Setup app.

It took me awhile to realize that I might try removing the Emagic driver too, but when I did, presto, access to MIDI Setup instantly returned. Then, I simply returned the drivers to their original folders, and everything has been working fine.

To me this has been a lesson in fiddling around before freaking out. Whether my audio will continue to spike in Logic or not remains to be seen. I’m sticking with Live at the moment, still rubbing my ears from the last time I ran Logic with headphones.

Apple behebt mit Mac OS X 10.5.3 USB Audio Probleme…

Wie ich schon einmal berichtete, hatte ich extreme Probleme mit meinem Line6 POD XT Live, Aufnahmen an meinem MacBook Pro über dem USB-Port zu machen. Das Nachlesen in diversen Foren ergab, dass ich damit nicht der Einzige war, der unter diesem Proble…

Will 10.6 a new OS wich you have to pay for? or wil it be an update for leopard? if it would be a totally new OS that would be rediculous! That means you have to buy a new OS to have a stable an fast mac.
I hope they will solve the problems with leaopard before they come with anything new.
I’m still afraid to update to 10.5.3, i don’t have the abillity to backup and i don’t have severe problems with 10.5.2(i have the latest gen MBP, just three weeks old) but i have a click or pop once in a while, mostly when its first playbacking midi for the EIC in ableton live.

I’VE SPENT 1800 EURO’S FOR A STABLE WORKING ENVOIREMENT APPLE, I’M STARTING TO THINK I WOULD BETTER HAVE STICKED WITH WINDOWS!!!

10.5.4 being seeded to developers.
10.6 (Snow Leopard) may be showcased in 4 days at WWDC.

Usually these rumors aren’t that interesting until you can hit the software update button. But 10.6 does seem to promise what people actually demand in a 10.5.x update..

“Snow Leopard is currently on track to come out during next January’s Macworld, and it will not contain major OS changes. Instead, the release is heavily focused on performance and nailing down speed and stability.”
