HT4848 Two days ago I upgraded my MAC PRO from Lion to Mountain Lion via my account at the Apple App store.  My machine runs so slow with Mountain Lion especially mail that it is completely useless.  It take about ten minutes per mouse click to register. 

I also run Parralles 7.  I re-installed this a few times with no affect.  I have it not running and my Mountain Lion is still too slow to use.  Again a single mouse or keystroke takes up to ten minues to register. 
Suggestions ?

    Hi Rodobaldo,
    Let's try to clear up this issue for you, I'd like to clear out the music on your iPod first. You'll want to find the Sync Music Checkbox, uncheck it, then Apply or Sync:
    Once you have done that, recheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPod nano, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.
    If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following article:

  • Strange: suddenly logic takes about ten minutes to start!

    hi!
    some hours ago I worked on a logic film underscore project. so i had a quicktime movie loaded in my project.
    then I opened the final cut project from which the movie was from. I don't remember if I closed the logic project before, but the actual movie file was just a bounce, not used by both of the apps.
    when I tried to open the logic project later it seemed to stop doing anything just after closing the startup screen, so I thought there was a problem with final cut causing logic to crash.
    As final cut always takes "hours" to check the waves plugins on every booting, I always swich between special logic- and fcp- sets in "AudioUnit Manager", a tool to have different configs of AUs for different apps or so. Never had any problem for years with that.
    So I tried everything with the AU plugins. nothing.
    Then I renewed logic's prefs and all that stuff. nothing. then I installed the new pro application support. HEEY! it worked again. but just for a while.
    opening other (even small) projects still takes about ten minutes now. nice coffee pause..:-) but I can't drink that much coffee at night.
    what can it be? a problem with the project manager?
    any suggestion?
    cheers

    are you using sample base instruments in those projects a lot using exs or kontakt? when paths to samples get messed up for some reason it can result in along waiting times each time a project is loaded.
    lately my kontakt samples get loaded without any sign of activity. if it is a large orchestral score i see a dead screen for quite a while before suddenly everything pops up and is ready to work with. i recall seeing progress bars or similar things in the past though...
    repair permissions and defragging (idefrag) may help as well.
    btw. i can drink as much coffee as i want late at night, even five minutes later i can sleep well. seems i am immune. but right now i am also having plenty of hardware issues to deal with so that's a good thing i guess...!

  • Cannot download Kindle app for my iMacbook Pro from the Apple app store.  When I upgraded to 10.10.2 it told me my current app would no longer work.  How do I get Kindle back for my laptop?

    Just upgraded to iOS 10.10.2 on my MacBook Pro (late 2011) and was informed my Kindle app was no longer compatible and would be removed somewhere.  When I tried to install a new Kindle app from the Apple App store it appeared to download, but when I tried to open it nothing happened and it does not appear anywhere in my App list.  I see there have been problems like this in the past but nobody has reported having a problem for several months.  Any cure for this?

    iOS is the operating system for iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad. Your Mac runs on OS X. You have installed OS X 10.10.2 Yosemite.
    I have the most recent version of the Kindle app for Mac from the Mac App Store (MAS) v. 1.10.6 and it works fine. Look again in the MAS for the Kindle app, does it say Get or Open on the button?
    Are you confusing Kindle for Mac with Kindle for iOS. The iOS version won't run on your Mac.

    You've tried deleting and redownloading them and seeing if they then work and tried contacting the developers ? If you have and they can't/won't help then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • I got  iphone5 two days ago and had taken some lovely photos. Tonight i tried to sync my ph to get my old contacts and have ended up with all  my old contacts and apps and have lost my photos from today. I also have lost the iphone5 apps. Can i get back?

    I got the Iphone5 a couple of days ago. Today i tooks some lovely photos and tonight i went through itunes to sync my phone and get my old contacts. In the process i have lost todays photos and the original iphone5 apps. Can i get them  back?

    Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
    Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
    Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
    Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
    You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
    BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.

  • Upgrade to mac pro from two G5's

    I am currently using a G5 2.5 ghz as my main Logic computer, and an additional G5 2.0 ghz to ease the cpu burden by hosting Ivory as well as additional instances of Kontakt, EWQLSO, etc. This works fine but I would prefer to use one computer if it were powerful enough. Would an upgrade to the latest 8 core Mac Pro give me as much or more power than the two G5's?
    (I'm aware of the various possibilities for combining these and other computers, but for present purposes I'm only interested in the comparison between one Mac Pro and two G5's.)

    But are you saying that one will be more powerful than my current implementation of two G5's?
    Well, I never used 2 dual G5's together, but with one 1.8 dual G5 I could get a max of 2 instances of Akoustik Piano along with maybe 10 other tracks. So if I had 2 dual G5's that were a little faster @ 2.0+ I would probably get about 4 or 5 Akoustik piano's along with maybe 30-40 other tracks? I just set up a test song on my 8 core 2.8 with 10 Akoustic Piano's and 40 other tracks with many plugs without the slightest problem and I could have done more. So in my humble opinion a single 8 core Mac Pro will easily out perform 2 G5's. Let me just add that the Akoustik Piano's all ganged up on one core. While all of logics instruments were evenly spread over 8 core's. So I think 10 Akoustik Piano's may be my limit. As I deleted each Akoustic Piano instance the stress on that one core went down from the red until with just one instance it was barely reading.

    This is my work computer (printing company) and my boss wants to upgrade it to the newest/best operating system. I run Adobe Creative Suite 4 and Quark 7
    on it and I just want to know what is the best way of going about updating it without causing any conflicts with those programs. I know my choices are between
    leopard and snow leopard but I have read that there are issues with updating to snow leopard and that leopard was safer but I don't see anywhere to buy a disk.
    Also if you could point me in the direction of the actual steps I need to take once I have the disk for the update that would be great (I want to make sure that
    the update does not cause any problems especially since it is not my personal computer)
    Thanks.

  • Just upgraded to MAC Pro From G5

    I just upgraded computers from a G5 to a MAC PRO. I lost some of my personalized playlists. My library is on an external. All my music is in the Music folder but lost all my playlists. Also my purchased music folder does not contain all the purchases made over the years. They all are in my music folder. Any way to re-create?

    THis just helps SWITCH the music from the front to the back. I am looking to have the music come out BOTH ports at the same time.
    There are 2 of us in my office trying to listen to the same music (with a wall between us). In 10.4 music came out both ports at the same time....my speakers plugged in from and then a wire plugged in back and through the wall to my co-worker on the other side. I can't do that now...it's either one or the other...any way to make it come out BOTH at the same time again?
    Audio Hijack Pro will do it.
    <http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/>
    Use "Sound" system preference to set output to one device you want. In Audio Hijack Pro's "Input" tab, set "Source Type" to "Application", select your sound application, click "Hijack", make sure "Mute" is off, go to the 'Effects" tab, click the top-left blank square to insert an effect, choose "Auxiliary Device Output" from "4FX Effect" and set "Device" to the other desired audio output. Use "In" gain on the effect to control its volume.
    You can also hijack two applications, so you can send different audio to each output.
    It may be simpler to get a splitter for the line-out if you want the same sound to both locations.
    An AirPort Express is another way to send audio to other locations if your Mac Pro has the AirPort option.
    There is also the Digital Audio output.
    You can add more audio outputs with iMics

  • On the Mac Pro Desktop can you use a Samsung smart tv as the main and only monitor? Is there any reason one would not do that with a wireless keyboard?

    I have not purchased the Mac Pro yet when I do my thought is to use our Samsung 55" Smart tv as the main monitor along with a bluetooth apple keyboard. Any suggestions would be appreciated

    A TV set is not a Monitor.
    A TV set is intended for displaying moving pictures, and not stable, static pictures, with bright, saturated colors in adjacent areas on the screen without "bleeding", fine lines one pixel wide without vibration, or smooth-edged diagonals in fine text edges.
    The 55" width is beyond your ability to see the screen edges when sitting close. If you sit appropriately far away, the text will be too small to read.
    The Mac requires that any display respond to a query including display_name and capabilities. Many TV sets have a problem "paying attention" to the computer port and responding when queried, so the screen may often remain dark at startup and after sleep, requiring your intervention to show a picture.

  • Important: A Mac is required to produce iOS apps for the Apple App Store

    Another user asked if a Mac was required.  This is a sufficiently important topic, and I'm repeating my answer here for that reason.
    My equipment in this world: a Windows 7 PC and an iPod Touch 4. So, I asked myself the same question.
    I read iOS Development With Flash, by Dolce (Visual Blueprint publishing). The book is about a year old, so some screenshots are out-of-date, because Apple changed things since the publishing. The book is excellent, though. It walks you through the entire process of creating an iOS app, especially for Windows users.
    Here's the bottom line:
    - Using Windows, you can do the development using Flash CS5.5.
    - Using Windows,you can generate the certificates, provisioning files, etc. (it's not simple, but it's not hard).
    - You have to have an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to test your app on.
    - Using Windows, you can use iTunes to transfer your app file from your PC to your device for testing.
    - Using Windows, you can use iTunesConnect (the website that lets you specify all your app details to Apple for their App Store).
    - YOU CANNOT UPLOAD YOUR APP FILE TO THE APP STORE WITHOUT A MAC!!!
    Previously, Apple allowed you to upload your app using iTunesConnect, the website. THEY REMOVED THAT CAPABILITY.
    Now, you must use Apple's Application Uploader (or whatever it's called) to upload your app file to the App Store (and, remember that Apple has to approve your app before they put it on their App Store).
    The only way to get the Application Uploader, if I understand correctly, is to install the Apple Developer SDK. And, you can only install that SDK on a Mac.
    So, this seems to be the last-ditch effort by Apple to force you to have a Mac to send your final app file to them for review and hopeful publishing on the the App Store.
    If anyone knows otherwise, please correct this info.

    In my previous thread you said
    I didn't mean the P12 file that Flash uses. There are developer and distribution certificates that get installed into Keychain Access on the Mac, that the various developer tools can directly read. My suspicion is that Application Loader reads those, as part of the process of seeing if you're entitled to be uploading anything to that account.
    Is there any clarification on this? Because in this guide it seems to suggest doing the signing up on the PC, and then using something called openSSL, also at the bottom there is a comment which says...
    Just a note that it’s possible that this tutorial needs to be updated to accomodate new requirements from Apple. I was able to gain access to a Mac and I can now install the test app just fine. I followed this tutorial word for word once then again from scratch and was never able to successfully install the app to my iPhone. I did notice that if I pull a certificate generated this way into Apple Keychain the option to export a key is not there. So that’s likely where the problem lies.
    So at a very rough (I'm new to AIR and iOS) guess I'm thinking sign up on the Mac, test on the iPhone via itunes again on the mac, and when the game is done, submit via the mac, but I can develop via the Flash CS5.5/AIR/Windows and create the necessary files which I will then have to port across to the Mac for any kind of submission/testing (on an actual device) ??

    Is it true or not that I will  be able to submit my app to the appstore? If it is true please give me  an example of it in the real world.
    Im a flex developer but  have pretty much thrown the whole idea of working on iPhone apps in flex  because of the lack support of flash.
    I dont get it; what  has changed and why doesnt the rest of the world know that they can  run  flash on their iPhone. I feel like this would be big news.

    Adobe supply an IOS packager that translates the Flex/Flash project into an IOS project equivalent. There are some restrictions. The igadget family doesn't run flash.
    Is it true or not that I will  be able to submit my app to the appstore? If it is true please give me  an example of it in the real world.
    You can submit an app to the appstore. I'm not going to go hunting for one for you.

    The iPhone doesn't run Flash. Adobe have created a packager that translates a Flash or Flex project into an IOS/Objective-C one.
    The mechanism has been discussed and described all over the web.
