What is the story with all this mac stuff

Recently bought a imac and was happy out at the start. I was on adobe prem ele 7 before on the pc. Before i go any further I am loving FCE 4 !!\
Ok here it is first off having to export movies out of imovie so annoying it just takes so long why you cant burn a dvd straight out of imovie like in adobe prem ele i just don't know. Then there is all the setting s in imovie import and export options yet in adobe prem ele i used to import my media staright in and adobe reconised it and put it out there with no hassel and the quality was really good now I am getting slightly fizzy looking video in imovie ( which i thought i had sorted with the great help from f shippey ) I get this fuzzy look in my video when i export via quicktime.
When i play it on my desktop in quicktime along side the same clip from finder in quicktime there is a definate loss of quality in my clips from imovie.....
Ok so I got side tracked there a bit back to idvd I burnt a 50minute project with titles e.tc on to verbatim dvd-r at 1x and 4 x speed and when i played them back onto my dvd player they stick half way through for a couple of secs and then play on, this is crazy and its not the first time i'm so annoyed with idvd and i don't think its up to the job at all. I never had one dvd stick in adobe and thats built into the premier ele software , i edited over 60 videobooth wedding dvds on the pc last year and never had one sent back for sticking... The FIRST one i do on the mac and it gets sent back to me for sticking so i run through some tests myself and everyone stutters/ sticks ... this is not good enough and i am wandering if anyone has any ideas or if they have experienced anything simular?
I have spent over 3500 euro on my mac and software printer etc and I am not happy with this..... and ps toast titanium 10 pro has been ordered so will check that out.
Many thanks and hope i didn't sound to rude just very frustrated.

The copy you got with your computer was a trial version. Registering it allowed you to use it for a given period of time. After that if you want to keep using the software, you have to buy it. This is not a new concept.

Could you tell me what is the reason behind all this?

Hi
Zp0001, we have 510 pcs in stock, but for some reasons we cant commit the orders that we have on the system. When we go into a xyz order 308 for example), the system commits only to February, even if we could do a partial shipment.
Could you tell me what is the reason behind all this?

Please look into availability check for that particular material,
based on the availability check the system determines whether to
confirm the sales order (if the sales order qty > inshe stock (either
rejection/partial confirmation - depends upon the availability check),
followed by determination of delivery date

What's the Story with Brightness using AutoTone

AutoTone brightness levels have been pretty whacked out on the PC version for a long time now. Are you guy mixing up native gammas between OS's or something. I mean it's pretty much consistently too bright on the PC version by like about +25. It's the consistency of the overly bright on the PC version by +25 that makes me think its something you guys can fix (take a look at). Of course some kid or really old guy will now respond with some (subjective/relativity, is your monitor calibrated stuff he learned this year on the internet nonsense) but that's par for the course I guess. Thanks guys for the the terrific work your doing.

Yea ssprengel, that's exactly what I've been doing (not using it much though any more). Wish we could at least edit the code in the preset where all it would do is shadow, highlight recovery and auto contrast. Those portions of AutoTone seem to work very well. Something maybe like;
settings = {
   AutoBrightness = false,
   AutoContrast = true,
   AutoExposure = false,
   AutoShadows = true,
   AutoHighlightRecovery = true,**
   AutoFillLight = false,**
   AutoTone = false,
**These are the one that do not exist and I wish they did.
By the way the "Fill Light" portion of AutoTone is also a disaster.

What is the problem with Mail on macs? attachments specifically

I have had problems forever with mac mail and its compatibility with PCs, but never majorly, i expected it to get better as macs progressed over the years, became more mainstream etc etc, but it appears, to me atleast, to actually be worse now on my new imac with mavericks...
Now one thing with Mac Mail i have always noticed, but not quite understood is the way when attaching images etc, they appear in the message rather than as a seperate attachment to be opened or downloaded, while i can see advantages to this i have always found it a bit strange.
When sending these messages it was only a hand full of people who probably had no computer knowledge who seemed to struggle with finding/downlaoding and opening the image.
Now with the new Imac and mavericks, pretty much everyone i send an attachmed image (usually aslways a jpg) to emails me back to tell me one of the following:
a) you have not attached the image
b) can you send an image file (or jpg) please
c) can you please re-send it as an attachment rather than in the main email.
Now I work in a media office so am sending a high volume of images to a large variety of people of varying degrees of computer literacy, and whilst i cant see what they are seeing, I just cannot fathom how pretty much EVERY person i now send images to seems to have problems getting the attachment.
ive checked the 'windows friendly' option and tried to make the image appear as an icon by right clicking it to see if that helps, but needless to say it seems to make no difference.
Anyone else having these issues or know a fix?

I discovered a simple work-around that is successful (at this point in time anyways) on my IMAC/Maverick when sending attachments (not inline or embedded) to PC users.
There are several threads in here on why attachments embed in mac mail when sending to PCs, and I have had similar issues. Not sure where the fault lies, but other than purchasing an additional program to make mac mail work as other mail programs work when it comes to attachments, I found no real solution that worked for my business PC folks. I did all the right things - sent my attachments in mac mail "windows friendly," "plain text," and "attachments at the end" and still got complaints when sending to my pc workmates using Outlook. I tried another suggestion I found here - zipping the files and sending the zipped file, but my workmates did not like that either and still asked why?
By trial and error I discovered that when I attach any pdf to the email as well as the questionable jpgs, the attachments arrive in their PC inbox as attachments that can be used as needed. I don't know why this works, but it has made sending attachments a happier task for my business group.
I would be interested to see if this works for others.

What's the story with Launchpad app location?

Got a new MBP. Spent an hour setting up pages in Launchpad. Realized the sold computer, straight from the Apple Store, had 10.8 installed. Had to update to 10.8.2 to run some apps. Reboot and the Launchpad pages are FUBARed. What's up with that? It's been like this since day one of Launchpad. Can't this be put right? Come on man.

Here it is - I was surprised not to see Launchpad listed, so you may have to use the Mac OS X feedback......

What is the story with Lightroom

Can anyone tell me about Adobe Lightroom? I am a pe5 user. Is there any reason to buy lightroom and use it with PE5? Can I replace PE5 with lightroom? Andy

Robert.....
It's difficult for me to give 100% accurate info as I've only used the Beta releases and V1.0 has some new features.
I've been using Lightroom for many months now alongside Elements. I suspect my workflow may change when V1.0 comes along as I believe its Organising abilities have change quite a bit.
Right now though I use it 100% for RAW processing. The Elements downloader still springs into life and dumps the images to my hard drive, but I then open LR and import the images into that. I'm hoping V1 may have improved and have an Elements type downloader but I don't find that a major obstacle. I could just stop the Elements service and import directly into LR.
One of the big issues I can see is that both Elements Organiser and LR keep independent databases so a decision will have to be made to either keep them in sync or work them independently. I'm hoping that I can drop the Elements Organiser in favour of LR but to date Elements Organiser has better capability, at least in my opinion.
Once I've imported the images into LR I review and cull them. (This currently means deleting them in Elements Organiser seperately). The images are keyworded and the keywords are compatible with Elements. I then process the images and Export them as PSDs back to the same folder as the RAW images. Since this is a watched folder Elements picks up the PSDs and the keywords. I then hide the RAW images in Elements.
Key thing to remember is that Elements has no concept of XMP files which is what LR generates.
You can also select an image in LR and then choose to Edit it in Elements. LR exports a TIF to Elements - you make your Edits; close the file and it goes back into LR. V1 has a kind of version/stacks feature. This is similar to selecting an image in Elements Organiser and then launching the Elements Editor.
What doesn't appear to work currently - and I'm not pinning any hopes that V1 will work any different - is that you cannot launch LR from Elements. In some way that doesn't make any sense to me anyway.

What is the deal with all these relocated channels?

Get them off my menu already!! Anyone else's guide have this? When i am scrolling through my menu i have to browse through hundreds of channels with an "x" in front of them, saying the yhave been relocated...ok so then i'll figure out where they are myself. Is there anyway to get all these "dead" channels of my guide? ITS SO ANNOYING

I don't think I could stand it if I didn't use the Favorites, there are just so many channels that I have no interest in. I have probably removed 200+ channels so that I never see them. I just never use the full Guide at all, it took a few days to get in the habit but I would never go back (Unless Verizon adds the ability to remove channels from the full Guide).
Customize your Favorites and then just never use the Guide button, use the Favorites button instead, you won't regret it.

What's the story with Yosemite?

I just upgraded my iPhone to iOS 8 and I want to know what to do with the iCloud disk which is compatible with Yosemite. Right now I have Mavericks on my MacBook 2.4 Duo and I'm happy with it. All the glitches and so forth have been worked out and I don't think I want to go through another period where I can't get my mail, etc. So, has anyone tried Yosemite? the iCloud disk? the interface between the two? etc. Many thanks, Y

Thanks for responding. One of the entry questions after the upgrade to 8 iOS asks if you want iCloud Drive, but it states that "you will not be able to access the documents currently stored in iCloud on the following devices until they are also upgraded to iOS 8 or OSX Yosemite." My question is: should I upgrade to iCloud Drive if Yosemite is still unavailable if I want to access my documents?

What is the story with Java and UTF-8

Im getting bits of info about java and utf-8, things like
"unless you wrap the FileInputStream, you'll get exceptions with UTF-8 encoding"
So can someone tell where there is a good resource for detailing problems / advice when dealing with utf-8 encoded data???
or
Give me the low down and what the dodge actually is?
Sorry for my poor English - im a scally
Many thanks

1) you've chosen SAX probably because it sticks well to your business requirements (i hope ;-), so keep it!
2) i am using both James Clark's XP and Xerces as my SAX parsers (XP for big volumes because it offers better performances): i am processing only UTF-8 encoded files with no problems,
3) sure, if you hit some troubles post again and a lot of pair of eyes will look into it!

What is the story with Parallels?

I got a copy of Parallels with the purchase of my MacBook Air (bonus). So I installed it and registered it but have never used it yet. Been about 6 months. So today I open it up and it tells me that it has expired and I need to purchase a license again (or upgrade). Is this some kind of mix-up or does this program require a subscription paid every so often?
Thanks,
Richard

I have a 2009 macbook pro 13" and want to make videos what is the best one for this mac A1278

what is a good video editor for my 2009 macbook pro 13"?

I don't see any DDR3L on the page for the RAM that would fit your model -> http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_133 3MHz_SDRAM.
But the answer is that it doesn't really matter - just make certain to get 1333MHz.
Good luck,

What is the deal with all of the feedback?

Every phone call that my wife or I make (2 8330's), there is so much echo and repeat. Its like I am talking to myself. Anyone else have this problem?

I have that problem every now and then but not on a regular basis and no different than when I had my Razr. But I think everyone gets that sometimes. I hope someone can give you the answer, I know it's annoying when it does happen, I usually just call the person back or they call me back and it goes away.

What is the story with Apple not allowing downloaded movies to be played on TV's?

***?

It isn't that it's an AVI that it's poor quality, it's down to the culture and individuals that steal and post it on the internet for others to download. If you use these sorts of services, you'll be plagued by poor quality video, infections on your computer and potentially a knock on the door.
You can get good quality movies from the iTunes Store that won't infect your computer and let you sleep peacefully in your bed at night.

How do you create a realy good web banner with changing pictures? I'm struggling to resolve this as I'm only a car detailer struggling with all this designing stuff.

I am using a CSS template from xsite p@ro and I can access my html script easily enough to make any edits: http://www.briansautodetailing.com.au/ I need to know what software I should purchase to create a changing header image. I would like to have larger pictures and have them change..Just a bit nicer to look at I guess.
Thanks for any responses in advance
Brian

How can I fix my iCloud tabs they update to what I'm doing but it says all this old stuff is opened....it's creating a mess

My ICloud Tabs on my iPhone won't update it's filled with all this old stuff!

Check the mute switch on the side above the volume rocker. If the red dot shows, the phone is muted. You'll still be able to play the ringtones to select one.
I find that the switch can be thrown to "mute" by accident when I put my iPhone in my belt holster.
