Hello,
I posted something about this a while ago, then had to move on to other things. Came back and found something weird. I have been teaching myself how to make midi streams / devices private. I had a MidiDeviceRef that I set kMIDIPropertyPrivate. My code intended to educate me crashed before I could mark it private, and I've since lost that midi device on my system. Caveat: I've been using some of the tools in the FWAUserLib, and I was able to make a fake MIDI device. Interestingly if I set the device private, without undoing it, and then I remake the device at a later time, it's still invisible to the system. BUT, if I change the GUID in the when I create it, I'm able to see the fake MIDI again. Is there some sort of cache for hidden midi devices that I can clean out?
Thanks
Rob

I don't know what the calls you're making to FWAUserLib do in terms of manipulating CoreMIDI ...


If you need to fix something up, you can hand-edit the CoreMIDI state in the plists it saves:

~/Library/Audio/MIDI Configurations/<current config name>.mcfg
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.MIDI.<machine id>.plist

You'll probably need:
	plutil -convert xml1 <filename>
to convert the plist from binary to XML format. Search for "private"...

If you really don't want to mess with the plists, you can make a new MIDI configuration in Audio MIDI Setup and that will give you a clean slate.
