Any experiences from pro photographers,musicians using 2DCMBP ontheroad

I am trying to decide whether to buy now or wait.
I go abroad alot, badly need an upgrade from the G3 PISMO.
1-any difficulties carrying it on board a transcontinental flite
2-Size wise will it fit in several photo backbacks like the PISMO does?
3-I would love to know about speed issues re: DVD burn speed,
photoshop use with ROSETTA until adobe presesents compatible software.
4-Basic plusses and minuses of the 2DCMBP or for that matter the first MBPro?
5-Will waiting make any sense since it will probably be in MAY 2007 when the next generation appears with LEOPARD.
thanks

Correct me if i'm wrong, but the PISMO was only a 14.4" LCD Laptop. The MacBook Pros are a wider laptop and i don't know the height of your bag. I would recommend that you look at the technical specs of the 15" Macbook Pros and see if it will fit in your bag.
Apple also released their Core 2 Duo MacBooks the other day. That might be a much better solution since Aperture and many other photo programs are more processor intensive rather than graphic. The MacBook will be smaller than your PISMO and will have all of the latest and greatest technology. The largest differences between the MacBook Pro and the MacBook are the physical size of the screen, the native resolution of the two screens, price, and standalone vs integrated video. If you can look away from the differences and think of practicality. The MacBook is an economical solution as well as physically smaller than the MacBook Pro. The MacBook has the technology of the MacBook Pro in an affordable solution.

Any experience from Firestore hard disc?

Any one that may have experience with these hard drives?
I want to connect my avid express non linear editing suite with this firestore, play my sequence and write .avi files, for import them later into encore.
That is because i cant export .avi or .mpg from Avid.
Anyone that has try this?
Looking forward to your reply
Thanks

>That is because i cant export .avi or .mpg from Avid.
Why not? Also, I don't see how using media from a Firestore will help here. It really makes no difference to the editing process whether the media comes from tape or HD. You still have to export the edited project from Avid into something Encore can use.

I cant seem to download any games from the app store using an sa apple id... When wiil we be able to access all the apps in the us store?

I was really dissapointed when i found out that we can only download from the sa app strore . The selection of apps in sa is really poor and we cant even download any games ... I know that there is a way around it but it conflicts with the term of use. When will we have acces to a wider selection of apps as i am really ****** that we cant get any games in sa ... Apple must sort their shiz out soon or im gonna have sell dis peace of crap ipad...

Using profanity is no way to solve a problem. Contact Apple with your concern.

I am using the mail aplication on my destocktop and even though i can receive i cant send any email from my hotmail account using BT

every time i try to send an email that what apper
my ports as well are set as they should be
i did visited the apple store and my email worked perfectly there.... can anyone say whats wrong??

Hi Pitas123
I am in the UK and had a similar problem. Ii eventually found the problem was due to my BT Home Hub Router. Not sure where you live, but of you are in the UK, this might work for you.
I found this fix below on https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4604180?start=15&tstart=0
It worked for me. If you can't link to the URL, here is the body of the text
There's an issue related to the BT homehub that is providing a hostname that is "syntactically incorrect" for several smtp server.
Here's how you can fix it.
Using your internet browser, go to the address "192.168.1.254
- Follow instructions to reset your password if asked.
- Then go to "Settings", then "Advanced Settings" and "home network"
You will see there all the devices that are connected or that has been connected before. It's gonna be easyer if yout computer is the only one connected.
Your computer should have a name like "unknown-xx:xx:xx:xx:xx ...
Click on this name, chose another name without any special characters, like "macbook" for exemple.
And then click on "apply"
- restart your computer.
That should fix the issue.
Credit goes to vincentfromcork for providing me with the solution.
Hope it works for you. If it does, spread the word ;-)

HT3529 When using imessage on iphone5 does it ever use up any data from your carrier whether using wifi or carrier

When using message on the iphone 5 does it ever use up data from your carrier, whether you are using wifi or carrier

When using iMessage, they use data. If you are connected to wifi, it will use your wifi data, which will have no affect on your cellular account. If you are not connected to wifi, you will use cellular data, which is charged against your carrier account.

Panasonic camcorder HDC-TM90 any experience using Pavtube Video Converter with Final Cut Pro X

Does anyone have any experience using Pavtube Video Converter with Final Cut Pro X for Panasonic camcorder HDC-TM90 shooting in 1080 P 60 ( mts file extension)

Don't use these generic offbrand converters to get footage into FCP X. they re-encode your video and cause loss of quality. If FCP X cannot import your video then use a utility that simply re-wraps it into a quicktime file with no transcoding or loss. I prefer Clipwrap which works great and is updated frequently but there are free alternatives like Media Converter or Rewrap.
But version 10.04 of FCP X should import it directly from camera as long as the folder structure is complete and you are not trying to merely import it from single mts files.

Setup Assistant and Migration Assistant do not restore MS Windows, it only does the OS X partition. All of your Windows stuff must be backed up and restore using a MS Windows application. If no one on this forum is able to answer your question then I'd repost it on a Parallels forum to see how other Windows users approach this.

I wonder how pro photographers use aperture?I shoot raw and my harddrive is alreay full.I'm not able to import new pictures.Is it ok if i create a vault and delete all my projects in the HD.Can I use an external HD use aperture through the vault??

I wonder how pro photographers use aperture?I shoot raw and my harddrive is alreay full.I'm not able to import new pictures. I don't know what to do. I created a vault. My plan was to create a vault(put all my master files into an external harddrive) and then delete all my projects in my mac pro's harddrive. Is it the correct way to do it ? What should I do if I have thousands of raw files ? How should my workflow be? Can I use an external HD and use aperture through the vault,without keeping the master files on my computer's hard drive?? Or should I shoot raw+jpeg and store raw files in an external backup harddrive and import only jpegs into my aperture library?

There's a bit to learn. It will slowly make sense.
Aperture is an empty field. You're given a tractor and a whole bunch of attachments. What you grow, how, and where, is entirely up to you.
Vaults are for back-up and only for back-up. They have nothing to do with storing your working files.
When your Library outgrows your system drive (and for good performance, you should leave c. 20% of every drive empty), it's time to convert some of your image's Masters from Managed to Referenced. ("Managed" and "Referenced" refer to Masters, not to Libraries.)
There are hundreds of posts in the forum, and several pages in the User Manual on using Masters.
Many people run Aperture with the Library on their system disk, and most (or all) of their images' Masters on external FW drives. This is a good set-up. Note that you will likely have to take steps to back-up the data on your external drives.
If you do the above, there should be no reason to delete any Projects.
The choice of RAW or RAW+JPEG or JPEG depends on the kind of work you are doing. I capture RAW only -- but I don't do any commercial shoots. Pros on deadlines report that the RAW+JPEG works well for them. Capture JPEG if it saves you time. IMHO, there is not a good reason to shoot JPEG to save space (space is cheap; time expensive).
Short-term solution: buy and use a FW800 external 1 TB drive, formatted "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)", and using Aperture relocate the Masters of all images older than 30 days to that drive. (Be sure to change your back-up strategy to include this new drive; you may need a second new drive.)
This general post of mine might help you understand more about Aperture.

Anybody have any experience with JPad Pro ?

I have just now downloaded JPad Pro version 5.0 from the web site www.modelworks.com
Does anybody have any experience with JPad Pro? I would appreciate if people who have worked using JPad pro give me thier opinions about it.
Thanks.
Vijay

I have never used it...I find jEdit to be valuable to me...mainly for the syntax highlighting..
My first 2 yrs' coding was spent with "notepad" and or "vi" (text editors) and command line javac...
I am of two minds as to whether to recommend this approach for everyone...I feel closer to the code I write in a notepad...but often times I missed things like "boolian" instead of "boolean" ... things that syntax highlighting assist you with... and unclosed brackets...which when you use an editor like jEdit (or I imagine jPad pro) you can catch easier, due to the auto-indentation.. Searching for these bugs teaches you little other than to be careful while typing :-)
I still run "javac" from the command line ... I think jEdit has a way for me to call it from the GUI..but I've never used it.
If it feels right to you..it is not wrong...the only thing I will NEVER use is a code-writing abomination... some people (even advanced users, and I will not say that they are pansies) use them.. In anything but expert hands, they are catastrophically dangerous.
The risk for code-writing IDEs is that you didn't write it, and there is an extra (un-needeed) level of abstraction from the code, one more level of complexity, that is a blockade to truly understanding the code and improving/maintaining it....

Has anyone had any experience using 'MacKeeper'?

I am afraid its worsen then THAT!!. I bought two licences from those fraud spammers, liftetime with "satisfaction or moneyback guarentee".
Both my Imac and MacPro kept crashing after installing it. All the helpdesk from zeobit did for me was sending me mails i should re-install osx and mackeeper.
When that didnt help, the gave in. I asked my money back, as in the guarentee. Thet denied flat out. "Sir this is not OUR software causing the problem, but OSX. Go there with your complained!"
