First off, it needs to be asked as you do not mention it in your post.
Do you have a proper Midi connection?
Have you set up Midi in the "Audio Midi Set up" ?>>>Applications>>>Utilities>>>Audio Midi Set up..
If Yes, then are you getting a Midi input on a Midi/Instrument track?

problem solved!
thank you
