Line 6 GearBox 3.7 – Troubleshooting

Disabling auto-launching of Windows Media Player, iTunes or other CD player programs while using GearBox

Windows® Media Player®, WinAmp®, iTunes® and other CD player programs can be set so that, each time you insert a CD into your computer, they auto-launch and start playing the first CD track. When GearBox is the foreground application on your computer, it will attempt to prevent these programs from automatically launching and playing a CD that you insert, since you’re probably putting the CD in so you can load a track from it into the GearBox Player.

If the GearBox automatic efforts to prevent the auto-launch of the CD application don’t work with your system, you can also:

•(On Windows®) Hold down the SHIFT key while inserting the Audio CD into your computer if you want to avoid auto-launching of your CD player program for this one time only.

•(On Mac® or Windows®) If you want to permanently disable auto-launching of your CD player program, go to that program and adjust its Preferences to disable auto-launching.

Download Errors – Download Accelerators

When you use GuitarPort Online to get Tracks, Tones and other data, GearBox downloads files from the GuitarPort Online servers to your computer. The Transfer Manager displays completed, in progress, and unsuccessful transfers. If you are having trouble with downloads, please make sure you do not have a Download Accelerator installed, because these are generally incompatible with GuitarPort Online. Real Download and Download Accelerator are two examples of download accelerators that are not compatible with GearBox/GuitarPort Online.

Download accelerators generally allow you to disable them for particular applications. Since GearBox uses Internet Explorer (on Windows®) to download from the Internet, you need to disable the download accelerator for Internet Explorer in order to allow GuitarPort Online to work.

If you want to be able to use the download accelerator when you’re not running GearBox or accessing GuitarPort Online, you can. You’ll need to disable the download accelerator for Internet Explorer before launching GearBox, and then you can re-enable it once you are finished using GearBox.

NetZero HighSpeed Internet access includes a download accelerator that you’ll need to disable for GearBox. You’ll need to turn off the high-speed mode by right-clicking on its status bar icon and selecting Turn HiSpeed Off.

See the troubleshooting information on Incomplete Downloads if you have disabled your Download Accelerator and are still having problems.
