CS3 with Bridge and DNG converter on new MacBook Pro and update recognition

I have CS 3 with Bridge. I installed it on my MAC desktop in 2008 and had to update the DNG converter to recognize my Nikon D700 raw files. I have a new MAC Book Pro and installed the software on it but it does not recognize the raw files, I downloaded the updated DNG converter but unlike the desktop it did not automatically update as I recalled it did in 2008. On the DNG Converter window the #1 selection is select image to convert, #2 Select location to save conver timages and #3 select name for converted images. Not sure what to do here, it all most leads me to believe i need to do this each time I download raw images?
Any step by step help is appreciated!

Help with 'disappeared' photos after migration to new macbook pro

So I got a lovely new macbook pro and successfully seem to have migrated everything from my old G4 powerbook. But, when I go into iphoto all 3,000 plus pictures have only the slash dotted outline and no images. Any suggestions as how to remedy this. Terence Devlin, you were kind enough to try to help me when I was having trouble with getting my pictures to export edited but we never did figure out the problem, so if you're out there and remember me maybe you can advise me here, as I don't know if anything I did in attempting to resolve that issue would impact the situation now. The pictures still exist on the other computer so it's nothing dire but it's weird to have everything look like it's there (in otherwords, the whole thing is set up exactly as my old one was, with the same albums etc.) but no actual pictures inside.... Thank you!!

To anwser my own question:
Had to highlight my User Home in finder, and then had to add myself as a user (and click the cogwheel to apply to all files within) and allow myself to 'Read and Write' in permissions.
For some reason, when I migrated across, it didn't add me as a user - even though I was the administrator of both the old and the new MBP!

How do I transfer files from my old laptop with a broken screen to my new macbook pro?

I recently purchased a new macbook pro and would like to tranfers files such as music and documents from my old sony vaio laptop. The problem is that the screen on my old laptop is broken so the image is distorted and I cannot see a thing, which means I probably wont be able to use Windows Migration Assistant. Does anyone know of another easy way I can transfer my files to my new macbook pro? Thanks

Manually migrating
If you prefer to move your files one by one between a Mac and a PC, consider the following options. Some are easier than others, and some require more computer experience, equipment, or resources.
Generally, you can migrate your files to the Mac by:
Copying the files from your PC onto external or removable storage media and then use that media in your Mac to transfer the files to your hard drive.
Sending files over the Internet. If you have an email account, just send the files to yourself from the PC and then pick the mail up on your Mac and save the attached files to your Mac hard drive. You may want to compress larger groups of files first.
Connecting the Mac and PC together through a network to use file sharing to move the files.
Tip: If you're moving files over manually, you'll save yourself some time down the road if you organize your files during the process from the get-go. For example:
Move your PC My Pictures photos to your Mac’s Home folder Pictures folder
Move your PC My Music song files to the Music folder on your Mac
Move your PC My Videos files to the Movies folder on your Mac
Move PC text and PDF files to your Mac Documents folder
Export PC contacts to vCards, and import them into your Mac Contacts
Use external or removable media
If your Windows PC has a CD or DVD drive, or a USB port:
Copy the files from the PC to an external hard drive or storage device, then reconnect the drive to your Mac and transfer the files to your Mac hard drive.
Burn files to a CD or DVD on your PC, and then use the discs in your Mac to transfer the files to your Mac hard drive.
If you don't have many files, transfer them over email, create zip files for larger groups of files. Mail your files from the PC to yourself, and then pick them up using Mail on the Mac.
Use a network connection
Connect your old PC to your Mac—either directly or over a network. Before you start moving files over, you should install any Mac software that is needed to open the files. Once you're done, use one of the following migration methods:
Direct connect
To move files by connecting your Mac directly to your PC (if both have an Ethernet port):
Connect your Mac to your PC using a standard Ethernet cable.
Make sure that both computers are turned on.
In the Finder on your Mac, choose Connect to Server from the Go menu to open the window.
Type your PC's network address in the Server Address text box using one of these formats:
smb://DNSname/ShareName
smb://IPaddress/ShareName
Click Connect.
Follow the onscreen instructions to enter your PC's workgroup name, user name, password, and the volume or folder you wish to access.
Your PC volume should appear in the Shared section of your Finder window on your Mac.
Open the volume and drag and drop files directly from it to anywhere on your Mac.
When finished, click the eject button to right of your PC volume to unmount it.
Network connection
To move files by connecting your Mac to your PC on the same network:
Make sure that both computers are turned on and connected to the Internet.
In the Finder on your Mac, choose Connect to Server from the Go menu to open the window.
Type your PC's network address in the Server Address text box using this format: smb://ServerName/ShareName, or select the name of your PC in this window (if it appears).
Click Connect.
Enter your PC's workgroup name, your user name, and your password when prompted, then select the volume or folder you wish to access.
Your PC volume should appear in the Shared section of your Finder window on your Mac.
Open the volume and drag and drop files directly from it to anywhere on your Mac.
When finished, click the eject button to right of your PC volume to unmount it.
Alternative methods
Copy files to a shared file server.
Purchase PC Data Transfer service at your local Apple retail store.

Update to Mac OS X 10.5 - just bought my new MacBook Pro C2D - update free?

dear forum,
is there a cheap update path to 10.5 ? got
my new macbook pro C2D some hours and
thought about getting 10.5 update free of
charge. in the early years there where coupons
when you got a new mac.
thank you for some statements
torres

Apple has not historically offered a cheap upgrade path for new operating systems unless you bought a new Mac in the time period between them announcing a release date for the new system and the date of that announcement. In the past, times have varied between one and two weeks.
In your case I would not count on it. I would plan on paying the full price, which has not been announced yet either.

Hi, I have a late October 2008 Macbook Pro Unibody which I wanted to use my Magma Expressbox card with. I had a Silver Macbook Pro before which this worked fine with but for some reason my newer Macbook Pro does not even recognize the Expresscard slot?

Highly anooying as I can't even use the Express Card slot at all, due to the fact the Macbook doesn't even recognize it exists. Has anyone else had this problem. If so, how was it fixed? I only upgraded my Macbook Pro due to the fact Ineeded a better performance but I still need my Expressbox1 to work with my UAD DSP card. If not the buying the new MAcbook was a total waste of money if the Express Card does not even fundtion on it? Please help!!

Mavericks is no longer available from the App Store, so your choice is Yosemite. One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won't have to go though the revert process.
Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

Help with syncing my Iphone to my new Macbook pro!

Okay, so I wasn't sure whether to put this in with the iPhone questions or the macbook pro questions but here goes anyways;
So just yesterday I received my macbook pro. My computer before was a Dell, this is really besides the point, but if I am trying to figure my best route to getting the information (music, contacts, etc.) onto my new mac. I am afraid to just plug my iPhone in, because I don't want it to wipe my phone.
If i plug my phone in, will this happen? I'm just not really sure what to do right now. Thank you!

I'm in a similar situation as the OP. Laptop crashed, lost access to my iTunes library. Got a new Mac, repopulated the new library with all my music, audiobooks, etc. Thing is, my iPhone contains only a few hundred of the tens of thousands of songs in my library, almost all of which were ripped from my CD collection (yeah, I'm old) rather than having been purchased through iTunes, so Restore Purchases won't do me much good.
I'm really not interested in having to redo the years-long winnowing process of choosing which music from my collection to put back onto my phone once I sync it to my new machine and library. Nor am I interested in dropping thirty bucks or so on third-party backup software. And I'm *really* not interested in being told that I cannot manage my music, on my devices, with my computer, without having to start from scratch.
So the original question stands: It's not about whether I can sync my iPhone to a new library without losing the media I've put on the phone, but How. To. Do. It. Is there a way to create an index or playlist of what's on the phone prior to the initial sync such that iTunes will restore only those files from the library after it slicks the phone?

Using a camera with a Firewire 400 to a new Macbook Pro with a Firewire 800

Just took delivery on a new 15" Macbook Pro. Installed Final Cut Pro 6 on it but learned my Sony DCR-TRV17 cable is a 4 pin firewire and I need the 800. I contacted Sony to see if they could tell me if I can use a different cable. They call their cable a digital i.LINK (IEEE- 1394). Not sure if this is generic or a special cable.
I ordered a Firewire 400 to 800 adapter. Does anyone think it will work? Do I need any drivers for the computer? I wonder if a USB will work.

Brand new macbook pro -- installed updates, now it won't boot

I just got my macbook pro yesterday, and ran system update. I also migrated my old apps over. I left it to install over night. This morning, I check on the install, and it's showing the grey screen with an image of the power button and the instructions to turn the computer off and on. I did so, but got the same message 3 times. Any advice before I call apple?

Just thought I'd update everyone on what happened (which I now know is a kernel panic)
I came home from work, and used my OSX disk to repair permissions and the disk. Figured the problem would be solved. The problem continued. So I reinstalled OSX. Still experiencing the KPs upon boot up. So I gave apple a call and was instructed to do a hardware test... except now the macbook was no longer reading the disc. The tech decided that it was most likely a hardware problem and set me up with a replacement.
I do wonder what the hardware test would have shown, but hopefully this new macbook will be free of hardware issues!

Wi-fi problems in me new macbook pro 13 late 2011

hallo aim having problems with the wi-fi in me new macbook pro 13 late 2011, it seams to always be log on and off and i can't get a stabled connections other divides in the house work fine with the wifi(pc etc..)

If the MBP was purchased within the last year take it to the Apple store
or contact Apple. There are few threads in this site dealing with the same issue.
There is no single sure shot step to correct this problem.
May be you can go through those discussions and find a solution.
Best.

New MacBook Pro Image Related Problems

Hello,
I see that there are already a lot of issues centering around networking problems with the new MacBook Pro. I would like to add mine to the list (I will be opening a ticket with AppleCare after this post).
I work for an educational institution, and one of the things we need is imaging capability to restore a notebook/computer to a "clean" state.
This has worked fine for all of our previous MacBook(Pro)s and desktop systems.
The new MacBook Pro is a big problem.
1. It won't netboot (yes, I've created a new netboot image with the base image from a new MacBook Pro). Bootup dies, and sits there with an AppleYukon2 rcv ring overflow message being repeated.
2. After being imaged with a 3rd party application (Casper), it won't communicate properly with Apple servers (roughly 1MB/Sec on a Gigabit network). Console log reveals an AppleYukon2 rcv ring overflow error message being repeated. Oddly enough communications with Windows servers is GREAT! But SMB file transfers between Apple servers ends up with the same AppleYukon2 error message.
3. After being imaged with APPLE'S DISK UTILITY, I get the same results as the 3rd party utility.
I would like to know if anyone else who is working with disk imaging is have the same problem with the new MacBook Pros.
Has anyone else experience AppleYukon2 error messages with a rcv ring overflow?
Thanks,

YES, We do.
Brand new MacBookPro 17". Everything fine as standalone.
We plug it in our 1000BaseT (Gigabit) LAN. Transfer speed drops dramatically after about 30 seconds. Our 300MB test file transfer takes approx 90 minutes, not 30 seconds as usual. No error messages to the user, just an extreme slowness. Digging with console, we notice a repeating line (every second or two): "kernel[0]: AppleYukon2: 00000000,00000000 skgehw - cppSkDrvEvent - SKDRV_RXOVERFLOW: rcv ring overflow ", and sometimes this one: "AppleYukon2: 00000000,00000000 sky2 - RX ring overflow -- dropped a packet" or "AppleYukon2: 00000000,00000000 sky2 - RX ring overflow -- dropped 2 packets".
There is an option to stop the problem: we slow down to 100BaseTX the Eth speed (Network/Ethernet) and everything works, at moderate speed.
Oddy enough, if we: a) plug in or plug out a USB peripheral (as a card reader); or b) plug in or plug out a FireWire peripheral (as an external disk); or even c) mount or unmount a connected FireWire external disk; then the speed arises and console stops to get the error lines. Anyway the good effect lasts for 30 secons, then again in the mess. In short, if you repeatedly plugin/plugout you can transfer files.
For sure we will ask Apple, this is our situation at the present time.

Wireless instability in new Macbook pro (late 2008) (uniblock model)

I have been experiencing the same kind of instability problems with the wireless connections of the new Macbook pro (late 2008 "unibody") reported in other posts in this section.
My network configuration includes a Time Capsule base station(802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)) and an Airport Express(802.11n) that extends the network and is used mostly for wireless music feeding into sound equipment.
I have been using this network for months with my old MBP (Core Duo,15.4', 2.16 MHz) and it works perfectly. From that notebook iTunes recognizes the Airport express immediately and feeds music without any problems.
I transferred all my configuration to the new Macbook Pro (late 2008 - which is indeed a beautiful piece of hardware, exquisitely designed) and everything works perfectly... except the wireless connection.
It behaves quite unstably. Usually, it is necessary to turn airport off and on several times in the computer to get iTunes to connect to the Airport Express. Even then, the music stream suffers from frequent interruptions and suddenly gets in trouble and looses connection.
While iTunes is trying to reconnect to the Airport Express, usually the internet connection fails altogether, making it necessary to turn airport off and on in the notebook to restart all the wireless connections.
All along, the old MBP wireless connections behave perfectly, proving the problem is in the new Macbook (late 2008) and not in the network.
I have loaded all the firmware and software updates available in the Apple site, and the behaviour improved somewhat with the EFI firmware update 1.6 and SMC firmware update 1.2. I also reset the SMC.
However, the problem is still there and appears now and then seemingly without a pattern.

Folks: *there may be a power/signal issue going on here.* I had a similar problem of my network connection dragging to practically nothing when hooking up my LaCie external drive to the USB port. Please see my post below (link and text)
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9914924#9914924
Folks:
Apple needs to get on this issue fast; after turning off my N mode on my WRT160N Linksys Router, I got my packet speed back up to where it should be... HOWEVER I noticed another problem.
When I hooked up my LaCie external drive (connected via USB), my packets on PING practically stall to nothing. I then eject the external USB drive and re-ping and I get acceptable packet speeds; I re-connect the LaCie external drive to the USB port and my PING crawls to nothing.
There is CLEARLY a correlation between the network speed crawling to nothing while hooking up an external drive; possibly a power sink and/or signal interference on the Airport when hooking up a USB device? (or perhaps even Firewire 800 too?)
I sure hope Apple is reading this one, because this could be a MAJOR issue that needs to be fixed ASAP.

Since new MacBook Pro: iTunes freeze during iPhone sync

Hello
I know that there are already a lot of discussions going on about these but nothing works for me.
MacBook Pro mid 2012:
MacOS 10.8.5 ---> new clean install
iTunes 11.1.1 ---> new clean install
iPhone 3Gs:
iOS 6.1.3 ---> new clean install
The problem:
The problem started after a clean Mountain Lion install on a new MacBook Pro.
Updated all applications an system.
Copied iTunes folder to new MacBook Pro.
Connected iPhone to sync with new MacBook Pro.
And ...
iTunes freeze during iPhone sync for the first time in many years whitout problems.
Some apps in iPhone are partly installed because of freeze.
When i delete them they appear again during next sync and then iTunes freezes again.
What i already have tried:
# Clean iOS install --> again and again
# Recover from older back-up --> again and again
# New user
# New iTunes install
# Delete iTunes preferences and cache
# Delete all apps
# Reset permissions on the user in repair center
# select: "Prevent ..., iPhones, ... from syncing automatically"
---> but when i connect the iPhone it start syncing automatically???
# and so on, and so on
All the rest is working like a beauty!
Please help, getting down and losing al lot of time.
Regards

It have taken me all day but it's solved!
During last sync on old MacBook Pro the new version of the iBook app was only synced partly.
That's why, when i was trying to sync on my new MacBook Pro, iTunes was freezing during sync.
Once i have synced my iPhone on the old MacBook Pro again, and iBook app was synced complete, this problem was fixed.
Regards

Hi! I've got CS3 Design Standard - the actual disks and Software License certificate. It was installed on my laptop which crashed and could therefore not be uninstalled. I have now installed it on my new MacBook Pro, but cannot get it registered with the serial number. Is it because it wasn't uninstalled on the previous laptop? What to do now?? Thx!

Maybe this can help someone else... I simply had to properly uninstall CS3 and reinstall it again after that. I think that sorted it! I also remember having a similar issue with Macs at work a couple of years back. Not sure whether the same applies to CS5/CS6. Here's a link on how to properly uninstall CS3 on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Mac OS. I'm on OS X 10.9.2 but it worked just fine. Remove Creative Suite 3 and CS3 products
