The new iMacs do not come with a MiniDisplayPort, they have Thunderbolt, so unless you are talking about purchasing one of the previous generation iMacs such as this refurbished model in the online Apple store, it won't work. And yes, if you are going to get the full range of video resolutions you will need the Dual-Link version.
For details see the store's web page on the Dual-Link display adapter.

Satellite Pro A10 - Does SP2 or 3 slow down the XP performance?
Hi,
I have a Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E which over the years had become very slow.
Recently I upgraded it's RAM from 256 to the maximum 1gb to try to speed things up but it did not help.
Next I reformatted the hard disc and reloaded the system using the Toshiba recovery disks. This worked fine and the system performance was excellent. However, with on-line security in mind, I loaded Windows SP2 ( with a view to subsequently go to SP3) and this has taken the system back to where I started - very, very slow, in fact pretty well unusable.
Does anyone know if Toshiba support SP2 and SP3 on this model of laptop?
If so how do you install them without killing performance?
Thanks in advance.Hi!
I think SP2 or SP3 is supported on this Toshiba notebook because both Service Packs are contains really important security updates and I think this is not the problem.
If you install SP2 or SP3 you will also get the Security center and better Windows firewall. Maybe you should disable both services because the slow down the system performance (I always disable both services).
Just go to start => run => services.msc and disable both services and set the start up type to disabled.

I am trying to convert a video clip, already in imovie so that I can slow down the clip speed, but I keep getting an error -34. Any ideas?
Thanks!Hi Russ,
Thanks for your response. I am not an experienced user of FC or other video editing software but if its that hit and miss I think I will go to the trouble of finding some better software - I have a busy enough life as is, I don;t want to get into second guessing what a software problem might be!
I have just successfully exported my video to a master file using one of the Apple codec options so it looks like it could be to do with the H.264 codec. I am wondering if Apples Compressor software would solve this problem - the only way to try this it to buy it, there is not trial for the compressor app. Any ideas?
Thanks

I would like to add games to an iPad 1 iOS 5.1.1. There are none in the app store for this version. Where can I find and how do I download?
The app store is the only place to get apps for your iPad. Some developers allow you to download older compatible versions of their apps - if there is a free game that you want then you could try downloading the current version on your computer's iTunes so that it's in your account's purchase/download history, and then on your iPad see if you can download an older compatible version of it. If it's a paid-for app then try contacting the developer first (there should be a link to the developer's site on the app's description page) and ask them if that will work for their app (don't buy it first and then find that it doesn't).
Or see if this page helps : https://sites.google.com/site/appleclubfhs/support/advice-and-articles/finding-a pps-for-older-devices -
This was displayed in four lanuages. When I restarted I was asked to submit an error report. The gave programmer details and indicated my OS 10.4 had quit. I was reading a news article on DailyMail.co.uk at the time.
I ran a Sophos antivirus scan on the whole disk and no threats were identified.
This has apparently happened a couple times previously. I thought the computer had not booted up properly since it had a black box where this message appeared and the machine was unresponsive.
Any suggestsions for cause and/or solution.Apple won't work on it anymore. And, take it from me (hard experience: three boards changed and the G5 finally croaked from the graphics chip problem) you don't want to bring it to an AASP either, because if they are able to get a new logic board from Apple, it will croak in short time also. These were not refurbed properly. And, by now, the caps on a refurbed board will be ancient, anyway. In addition, there is a serious potential issue with the graphics chip. There was a repair extension in effect for both issues, the caps and the chip, but it's long since gone.
There might also be bad caps in the power supply.
Those three bad caps, and possibly others, are enough to bring this machine down.
There are some delicate soldering skills involved in replacing the caps. Most people with experience recommend practising first on a disposable board.
You can get a set of the caps which will fit properly from
http://jimwarholic.com/2008/07/how-to-repair-apple-imac-g5.php
There's also badcaps, who I think will work on these.

Also have a look at the posts inside these threads from resident expert spudnuty.

https://discussions.apple.com/message/11896037?messageID=11896037#11896037
And there are one or two others who will do the repairs. I can't remember right now, but I'll look into it and post here again, probably tomorrow.
Basically, I don't think you want to put any big money into this.
EDIT: just remembered another. There was another one located in Oregon and I think he's now out of business.

Get the caps and maybe have some local guy work on it.

Creation of 1000 Cost Centres will slow down the system performance
Hi,
Can anyone suggest us, that if we create more than 1000 Cost Centres will there be any system/server performance issue in
SAP Business One.
Thanks,
VishwaHi Vishwa,
You are 50 % correct, Application performance may get slow but it won't clash.
Because If you create 1000 of Cost Center, for each transaction system have to search and have to do the entry for corresponding cost center also. So there is a chance to get low performance. But application won't crash.
Also you check other mean also like network configuration, protocol priority, cache memory size increasing, page fault size and others. -

I have movies, events, clips, etc. scattered over three macs, and would like to consolidate them in one place, hopefully in ONE library on an external HD. How, please!
Try forcing iPhoto to load the Library on the External Hard drive by launching it while holding down the Option key. Choose the Library on the External HD, and quit iPhoto, see if iMovie can see the Library with the iPhoto Videos contained inside.

Outlook 2010 - User tends to open many emails at a go but this may slow down the machine.
Hi,
My user tends to have this work habit of opening 8-10 emails at one go. She view this way of working as more efficient and faster. But this means that if outlook crashed, all the emails will be close as well, and this way of working tends to slow down the
machine.
Is there any way Outlook can users to open multiple emails without hording CPU page milage?
Thank you.Hi Josh,
Slow Outlook can be also harmful for your database and there are numbers of factor which slow down the MS-Outlook like:
* Third Party Plug-ins
* Slow internet connection
* Antivirus/ Firewall Programs
* Corruption or Error within Outlook
So always try to open Microsoft Outlook in safe mode whenever you stuck in such problems.
How to optimize Outlook performance:
* By Disabling add-ins
* Check default account settings
* Disabling Scanning programs
* Scanpst.exe (Inbox Repair Tool)
For more brief about Outlook disturbance and solutions:

Hi
I am going to be buying a macbook air 2012 model with 4 GB ram soon. I was wondering how much space (memory) does Norton AV take up and does it drastically slow down the computer. Also, I am going off to uni so will predominantly be using the laptop for surfing and MS office.
Thanks a lotSorry to disagree mende1. In this age of email attachments and social networks, it is actually a good idea to have a good antivirus on your system. {I realize that this is a religious argument and I will say no more}. With that said, the general concensus is that Norton AV is terrible. It is intrusive and uses up a lot of cycles.
There are a lot of better AV clients out there. I use ClamXav which is free and uses the clamav antivirus that is open source. -
I just upgrade to Maverick on my 2 year old MacBook Pro and it has slowed down the computer terribly. All I see every time I do anything is that crazy circle going round and round. I don't recommend you upgrading. How do I get rid of it. I believe it forces you to buy a new macbook!!!!
It does not. First things first have you tried restarting?
Try restting PRAM

Messages are in to be delivered state and slows down the message processing
Hello,
Messages are in to be delivered state and slows down the message processing.
this happenens in case of DB2 on some machine where the issue about high load on DB2 is caused by standard programming in SAP XI that executes a statement, where it uses the condition 'where 1<0' prio to the original SQL statement configured in the channel configuration,
Can you please help me out in solving this issue?
Thanks,
SooryaStatus: TO_BE_DELIVERED
Which means that the message was successfully delivered from Integration Server point of view and it states that the messages is initially handed over to the Messaging System.
TO_BE_DELIVERED occurs while the message is put into the Messaging System receive queue.
Solution:
This is done via the Messaging System receive servlet:
http://<Host>:<PORT>/MessagingSystem/receive/<CONNECTION>
/<PROTOCOL>
Only if this was executed successfully the Messaging System returns HTTP 200 to the Integration Server and the Status TO_BE_DELIVERED moves to DELIVERING

Norton anti-virus slows down the start up time in Windows Vista
Hi,
please help, i am being driven to distraction by the slow start up time of my laptop.
I've only had it for a few weeks and don't use it for anything beyond producing word documents etc.
It has gradually been getting slower on startup and i suspect it has something to do with the Norton anti-virus software on it and the updates for norton that i have downloaded (thinking that this was the right thing to do).
Looking at the problems and solutions log on the computer the date that it really started to slow down coincides with downloading a norton update, which i have been unable to uninstall to check if this really is the problem.
Further i have tried doing a System Restore, my laptop was not able to complete.
I am stuck on the DOS screen for 10 mins with the message:
PXE-E32 FTFP open timeout
I have no idea what this means but the Problems and Solutions log says something about a system hang?
I have looked on the web for other anti-virus software and they all seem to have one problem or another and slow computers down on startup.
Does anyone know of a solution or do i just have to make a cup of tea when i switch my computer on and lace it with vodka till it has booted up completely!
I am a novice when it comes to using computers so would welcome any non-technical advice.
thanks
lauraHi guys
I would like to add some words about my experience using the Symantec Norton Antivirus software.
I have used this software 3 year long. It was great because it supports one of the best virus filtering options BUT it really slow downs the operating system.
I didnt use it on with Vista preinstalled notebook but on Win XP and I have to say that the notebook boot process was halted for about 30sec-1min till the whole parts of Norton Antivirus software has started It was very annoying
However, I switched to AntiVir. This is software described by marina4000 and Im really happy because the boot performance increased.
So finally I would also recommend removing this Symantec Norton Antivirus software and to switch to the other free AntiVir software ;)
Bye
