SOURCE: Connecting Yamaha piano (YDP-131) to imac g5

I dont use garage band but You could try just plugging a regular plug jack from aux out to your computer with a smaller jack adapter into your mic input. When you go to record a track it should pick it up-the equalizer should show movement when striking keys. Remember most music software requires you to select the option to play and hear the sound simultaneously.

How to factory reset iMac without login or keyboard?

To factory reset an iMac without a login or keyboard, you can try the following steps:
  1. Boot the iMac in Target Disk Mode: Connect the iMac to another Mac using a Thunderbolt cable. Power on the iMac while holding down the T key. The iMac should appear as an external disk on the other Mac.
  2. Reinstall macOS: Open the Disk Utility app on the other Mac and select the iMac disk. Choose "Erase" and follow the on-screen instructions to erase the iMac's drive. After erasing, quit Disk Utility and follow the on-screen instructions to reinstall macOS.
  3. Restore from Time Machine Backup: If you have a Time Machine backup of the iMac, you can restore the backup to the iMac after reinstalling macOS.
If these steps don't work, you may need to seek assistance from an Apple Store or a professional repair service.

Connecting a USB keyboard to my iMac

Adding the keyboard is one thing but without the correct driver, your pc will not be able to recognise it or make it usable. Check in your device list to see if it shows up and whether it is functioning. If not, you need to download the correct driver from the keyboard manufacturer.

The Yamaha sustain pedal attached to my Yamaha YPT-300 used to work, but now does nothing. Factory reset failed. Any way to fix this, or tell if the problem is with the pedal or the piano itself?

It sounds like you are having an issue with the sustain pedal for your Yamaha YPT-300 keyboard not working properly. There are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
  1. Check the connection between the pedal and the keyboard to make sure that it is securely plugged in and not loose.
  2. Check the settings on the keyboard to make sure that the sustain pedal is properly configured and enabled.
  3. Try using a different sustain pedal to see if the problem is with the pedal itself or the keyboard.
  4. Check the manual of your keyboard, some models have a specific setting to turn on/off the sustain pedal and make sure it's not turned off.
  5. If the above steps do not resolve the issue, it's possible that there is a problem with the keyboard's internal connections or a malfunctioning component. In this case, you may need to contact Yamaha's customer service for further assistance or consider getting it repaired by a professional technician.
It's important to note that troubleshooting and repairing electronic equipment can be dangerous, especially if you're not familiar with the device, so it's best to contact a professional technician if you're not comfortable working with it.

I was hoping to find a free download for a yamaha-ypt-300 keyboard but no luck

Try to search for XG midisongs and karaoke files (song extentions should be .mid and .kar) on the Internet. There are lots of free songs out there!

G5 keeps powering up for a few mins then switches off?

Thank you for contacting Fixya Support, I am glad to assist.

There are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot this issue:

Try a PMU Reset:
* Turn of your iMac if it is already turned off
* Disconnect all connections to the iMac except the power cord
* Now disconnect the power cord for approximately 20 seconds
* Reconnect just the power cable the keyboard, mouse and power cord, and then power your iMac G5 up.

* Check to see if the iMac boots up normally without power interruption.

* If the iMac G5 shuts off again, try these steps, another recommendation would be to remove all connections including the power cord, and lay the iMac G5 on soft cloth face down and with a philips screwdriver, remove the plate on the bottom of the iMac G5 where your RAM memory is located.
Before removing the RAM however, touch your hand on the metal boot to discharge any static current you carry for approximately 5 seconds.

Now remove each RAM card and then reseat (re-install) each card.

Restore the RAM card cover with your Philips screwdriver, reconnect your power cable, keyboard an
d mouse and turn on your iMac G5.

See if this second procedure helps if the first procedure does not work.

Let me know if this helps.

Regards

When I power my ypt-300 the LCD lights up and

Press the FUNCTION button till "Local Control" appears and then select it "On".

It appears this may take quite a bunch of presses to get down to the Local Control option.

Refer to your manual around pages 56 and 57 to see the list you step through. Local Control is about 2/3 the way down page 57.

Refer to 59 for the simple instruction toe set Local Control on or off.

You can get a free download of the manual at:
