Access Music User Forum

all new intel designs seem to be like this. the following trick is valid for the i5/i7 mac book pros as well. put the following into terminal after installing the latest virus TI software suite:
"defaults write de.access-music.virus_ti.control Axiomatics -bool false"

Yes, please marc - I've seen this fix in a few posts, but before I go into Terminal and start disabling things on the USB bus, I would like to know what this does.
Is it something that has to be redone every time you boot, or is it permanent until changed back?
How do you change it back?

I think you can see that there is a good reason to explain this fix.

you can revert to the old setting by replacing "false" with "true". this fix ensures that virus control, as it is right now, can connect with the virus ti on a computer with an i5/i7 chipset.

Yeah, I got ya, you can revert back to the old setting. . . But what does it do?

The message I'm getting is that the Virus is sharing the USB bus with the card reader, or the bluetooth, etc. etc. All USB ports on my i7 iMac are shared with some internal component.

So, if I use your fix, I assume that I cannot use bluetooth? Or some other internal component gets disabled?, or little green men will fly out of the Virus and smash my favorite albums.

My past experience has been that screwing with the terminal to fix hardware issues can be very, very detrimental, and should not be taken lightly, so excuse me if I don't rush off and apply this fix when no information about it has been provided.

So I ask once again, in all impatient sincerity; What Does It Do?

and the "fix" adjust something in virus control which allows you to use it without loosing access to any other USB device. see, what it does, it changes a setting in virus control's preferences, nothing evil. look at my profile, i'm working for access, i'm not trying to FU your computer

Well I just got a new MacBook Pro 15inch and the installer wont even pick up my Virus Ti2 Desktop.. It really sucks because i just want to use what I have you know. I'm pretty new to Macs in general so i hardly have an idea of whats going on. I just want to use this beautiful machine lol. I got it to work on my old PC and can use it when i just hook it into my monitors straight into my midi keyboard. But on here i start the installer and it just freezes a like 77 percent and says that it cant find my Virus at all.. is this maybe a problem with my virus? I would really appreciate any help at all with this. I mean I;m new to virus and Mac so i guess i;m at a loss. But even after searching for a solution on the web i haven't found much at all.

Thanks
