Thanks EEight, it worked!

I added the object
[declare -stdpath /extra/cyclone| (one for each library and it went fine),

cheers,

Hi,
my platform is: Pd Vanilla 0.47, OSX-Yosemite, MacBook-PRo,

I'm starting with Vanilla, trying to use my old PD-Extended objects.
So I installed the cyclone, iemlib and jimmp libraries in my computer using DENKEN plugin,
installation worked fine, but...
objects can't be created,

I tried including the library names in the Startup but no solution yet,

any ideas?

thanks!

ok, thanks for the help!

@whale-av
well seems we got something!
using TextWangler I overwrote hosts file copying the default data into it:

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1     localhost
255.255.255.255     broadcasthost
::1             localhost 
fe80::1%lo0     localhost

and PD started!

only problem is that when I restart the computer
the host file is overwritten with the old data and back to the same problem,

Does anyone know how to avoid this?

thanks

Here's my hosts file
hosts

ping from terminal seems ok,

thnx

The lines are ok, just checked them, they are exactly as you wrote,

really strange, all other apps work perfectly,

I also upgraded to OSX 10.10 just in case but no solution either,

For those who just entered the thread:

• PD doesn't launch on my MAcBook pro OSX 10.10,
  (I've been using it 100% ok for two years)
• host file seems ok
• threw away org.pd files as suggested
• also tried deleting and re installing application
• every thing else works fine on the computer

any more ideas would be greately appreciated as I am working on a project which requires PD on my laptop

Yeah, problem is I have no idea about what to change inside the file,

Yeah, seems that settings for localhost are corrupt,
but I don't know how to debug it.

Tried -noprefs flag with no sucess,

then with -nogui got this:

Hi,
I tried starting with -noaudio flag and no change, always getting:

WARNING: connect to pd failed, retrying port localhost:5400

MMS

Hi Seb,

trying form OPEN didn't work either,

in tried lauching Pd from terminal,
Pd icon starts to bounce and I get the following message:

   WARNING: connect to pd failed, retrying port localhost:5400.

MMS

(missing PD )

So I tried re installing XQuartz but it didn't work.

Regarding your next suggestion I got this output from org.puredata.pdextended.plist

What should I do now?

MMS

ok, finally I found and deleted all org.puredata files from /Library/Preferences

(Library folder is normally invisible in 10.8, to unhide it you need to type from the terminal the following command: chflags nohidden ~/Library/ )

but problem persists: PD icon bounces then goes away,

still no more PD for me!

HI, thanks for replying,

the problem is I don't have no Library/Preferences/ path inside /Users/username/
on my Mac Book,
so I can't erase it,

any more ideas?

MMS

Hi everyone,

well suddenly PD doesn't work. on my Mac Book Pro OS 10.8,
I've been using 0.43.4 extended for almost 2 years now,
first time it happens, it just wont start.

Tried:

• replacing the app with a new download
• resetting preferences from command terminal

Still not working.
Any ideas?

thanks!

Hi,

I'm starting with a an Arduino Decimila board,

I've connected a potentiometer to Analog 0 input and I want to receive
some numbers in PD,

So far...

• loaded Firmata into board
• opened arduino-test patch
• tried sending data from PD to board and it worked (board led blinking)

What's not working:
I can't receive data while changing the analog input from the board.
(Just to be sure I tested de analog input from the IDE environment and it worked ok).
Seems like I'm not selecting the input correctly at Pduino, but I tried setting
AnalogIn = 0 and all the others with no success,

any ideas?
thanks!

Hi guys,

I've just upgraded to 0.43.4 and I get the followwing error messages on start up,

line 1)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 $cmds_from_pd"(Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name "open:"
while executing
"open: /Users/seccoleonardo/Library/Pd/gem.conf: No such file or directory"
("uplevel" body line 1)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 $cmds_from_pd"(Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name "open:"
while executing
"open: ./gem.conf: No such file or directory"

but...
I only get the messages when the audio card is connected (Firewire)
can any one give some advice as how to fix this issue?

***I work on OSX 10.6.8,
with an Apogee Duet 1 audio card***

thanks!

Hi all, i found what I beleive may be a bug.

it appears when i use METRO, and strangely starts to affect the result of two signals being multiplied (coming fron TABPLAY~ an VLINE~),

appreciate your help

(I use PD-extended on OSX 10.6)

thanks!

Hi ,

when sending a read message to SOUNDFILER object,
like,

read -resize ../flauta.aif array99

the sound is not loaded to array99 and I get,

"warning: array1: multiply defined"

thanks for any help!
MMS

Hi,
Is there anything similar in PD ?...
(text below taken from MAX tutorials)

"Probability Distribution
The bang message in the left inlet of a table has a special function. Instead of sending out a stored value, the table sends out an address. The probability of a particular address being sent out is in direct proportion to its stored value, as compared to the other values in the table. If the value stored in an address is greater than in other addresses, that address is more likely to be sent out when a bang is received.
This feature of the table makes it perfect for storing a probability distribution. Each
address can be assigned a different likelihood of being sent out when a bang is received."

Thanks!

thanks for your reply,

Yes, most of the time I get distorted audio and I need to stop/restart
Pd and my audio card,

I never experience this problems if I only work with onboard audio,
so I think it"s some kind of incompatibility between PD 0.43.4 and my external FWire card.

--Worth mentioning that I tried the same scenario with another MAC,
and same results. Strange.--

(as usual i got no response from DUET service, card cost me 700$ 2 yrs ago)

I'll need to do some testing with a different card.
