Roland PC-300, not supported by Lion?

After upgraded to Lion, and trying to reinstall the Roland driver, it's a no go.

When I tried to "uninstall", I get a message about, not supporting Power PC stuff.


That make sense? Is there a fix?


Thanks

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2), 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo / 4GB

Hallo Ives,

thanks for your work. I've followed all the instructions but it doesn't work with my Mac.

I've a Roland Ed Pc-300 and a MacBook Pro with Mac Os X 10.8.3, so this is very strange since we have the same hardware (but now I realize that you tested with Os x 10.8.2 could it be a problem?)...where could be my mistake? Thank you in advance, David

Hi Yves,

thanks for responding.


This is what I have done:

-downloaded xcode

-downloaded your zip file

-i've run on xcode the xcode project that I found in your zip

-it says that the built was successful with 114 issues but no errors.

-I put the plugin file in the audio/midi drivers folder without opening the plugin, i just put it there.

-I rebooted the mac

-I connected the roland pc 300 via usb

-I opened the midi audio configuration tool and it doesn't recognize my keyboard

-I opened garageband and puredata and no one recognizes the keyboard


That's what happened to me.

No error messages in the end, it just doesn't work for some reason.

What could I try?

Thank in advance,


best regards,

David

Hallo Yves,

finally I understood my mistake.

I'm a new Mac user, so don't laugh at me :-) but I didn't know that there are two different Library folders: one for the system and one for the user. Am I right?

So in a first time I've put the plugin in the Midi drivers folder of the User and not in the right one, the Mac library folder, and that doesn't work.

So...in the end, I've changed the folder and now it works!!


Thank you very much!

David
