Without knowing which midi interface he is using, I can't be sure of the problem. However, I do know that not all midi interfaces are created equal. A quick google turned up this comment:

"After trying the Yamaha UX16 and Edirol interfaces with my Yamaha P-70 keyboard controller, I was very frustrated and couldn't seem to get my laptop to recognize the controller. I finally found the answer. I ordered the E-MU 1x1 interface from Guitar Center ($29.95) and it works perfectly connected via USB into my MacBook Pro for use with GarageBand and Logic. Now my Yamaha P-70 works great with all the MAC sounds and JamPacks. Don't bother with the Edirol or UX16 as the E-MU is the USB answer!"
For $30 it sounds like an easy thing to check.

RE: Midi Interfaces

i have the M-Audio Midisport USB-MIDI 1x1 interface and have been able to record from a synthsizer keyboard. In order to play midi files to the synthsizer, i installed a free MIDI player program called MightyMIDI.dmg. it plays both piano files and organ files fine. I have not yet connected this setup to our organ at church so perhaps it will work there. We also have a Yamaha Cavlnova piano with a direct USB interface at church and i have recorded to Garage Band from it, but cannot play back to it yet. I will post my status again after I have a chance to try the MIDI connection to the organ. Thanks for the information so far. Dave
