Hello,
I know I've seen posts in the past regarding sound issues if you are using an external firewire soundcard/box and an external firewire hd enclosure. However, I purposely bought a firewire 800 external enclosure to avoid this problem. Guess what? I'm having problems. Basically when I try to play something from iTunes (or any app with sound) there is no sound, just several loud pops and then iTunes freezes (the song that is playing just stops - no sound of course). Setup: PM G5 dual 2.0 - released last fall M-Audio Firewire 410 - connected to rear FW 400 port OWC Mercury Elite Pro HD enclosure - connected to rear FW 800 port latest version of Tiger; latest iTunes; just reset PRam this morning hoping it would help; I've made sure that the sound settings are at 44.1khz (in audio/midi setup) The only way it has worked since I hooked up the hd enclosure yesterday has been if I do the following: 1 - turn on FW 800 enclosure 2 - boot PM If I reboot the PM while hd enclosure is on, I get problems. If I turn on the enclosure after PM is running, problems. Now, this morning, not even following the above steps 1 & 2 are working; to get to work I'd need to unplug the 410, power down, connect, reboot, and hope. I'm really hoping someone has a solution as there is no way I'm going to power down each night; the drive will just go back before I do that. I just wanted to make use of the FW800 port since I am using all USB ports. Anyone have any suggestions or help? http://www.cybernetic-broadcasting.net/ Power Mac G5 DC 2.0GHz, 6.5gb RAM, ATI Radeon X1900 G5 ed, 250gb sys drive, 400gb media drive 8gb iPod (Red) nano - 2G / Silver 2G iPod Shuffle Last edited by dead_stars : 2006-09-15 at 09:39.
