Any issues with office x on new imac

I have just loaded office x onto my new imac and both word and powerpoint crash on launch, though excel is ok. Anyone has similar issues?

You'd be better off asking this question in the Bootcamp forum, as the people there will have actual experience doing this.
That said, XP SP2 should work fine, and yes, you do need to acquire a copy of Windows to install on your new Mac.

Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 clapping and crackling issues with Logic Pro x new iMac 27"

Hi, I have just purchased a brand new iMac and downloaded Logic Pro x, I also purchased the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 interface. I have downloaded the drivers from the focusrite website and everything is set up, when I plug in guitar or mic I get really bad clapping and crackling to the point where the sound cuts out altogether. I have changed buffer size and sample rates and everything else I can think of but nothing seems to fix the problem. I also deleted the 2i2 drivers and logic and reinstalled them both but still have the same issue, when I record using the iMac built in mic everything is fine so it's deffinately something to do with the interface. I am waiting to hear back from Focusrite tech help. Does anyone else have this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm having a similar issue which might indicate that the problem is not your interface.
Yesterday I migrated all my stuff from my 2009 iMac to a brand new iMac 27", and when I did a quick test to play back some old projects in Logic there was loads of annoying clicks and pops. My interface is a Roland Octa-Capture.
I also noticed some weird CPU spikes from time to time, which I never had on my older, much less powerful iMac...

Issues with 'stuck' keys on new iMac (2011) with Aluminium KB

Hi All,
I've got a weird issue which I've seen on a few other forums... with no real fix. I've got a new 27" iMac (2011) and I have been using it happily for a few weeks. In the last two days, my keyboard has been going a little crazy.
Firstly I thought it funny that the 'option' key wouldn't work during bootup and later I discovered that once booted in OSX, i'd have 'sticky' keys or keys not registering when pressed.
When I reset the keyboard, everything works fine again.
Its becoming a problem as I cannot register an of the bootup options anymore and have reverted to using an old Remote to access my boot volume screen (holding the Menu button).
Has anyone seen this before and if so, what is the fix other than taking the keyboard back to the Mac store?
Thanks again,
Con

Hi Cabakroll,
Yeah, I've been doing regular updates (when available). I have actually figured out the issue... its a very weird fix mind you. I went back to see what changed the other day, when I first notice the issue. I recalled that I swapped out the batteries (the ones that came with it were running low for some reason), with rechargables.
Since then, the keyboard has been going crazy. I swapped the rechargables with normal batteries and bingo, problem fixed. :S
Thanks for getting back to me though.
Hopefully this helps others too.

I would like to buy a developer license to use on a mac at a public library from a flash drive any issue with this?

I would like to buy a developer license to use on a mac at a public library from a flash drive any issue with this? Very new to this

The license is for the Developer not the machine it is run on However there could be soma issues with trying to develop on a public machine.
The biggest is does the library machine have or will they let you install and run Xcode and if you are developing for IOS will they let you plug in your devices?
In addition will they allow you the hours needed on the machine? Most public machines have a time limit especially if there are others waiting to use it.
All-in-all in can be done but it won;t be an easy situation.
good luck

I want to buy a new Macbook pro 15", but I don't like Lion, I want Leopard installed, is there any issues with drivers or any other I should be aware of?

I want to buy a new Macbook pro 15", but I don't like Lion, I want Leopard installed, is there any issues with drivers or any other I should be aware of?

Hello, I've tried Lion from the day they released to last week I got my computer formated and with leopard again, on my iMac 24" from early 2009 2.9 Ghz core 2 duo, and I have installed 8 Gb of memory, and i have some complains about it, there are some cosmetic issues but mostly I'm concerned about issues bellow the hood, as I'm a stock trader and I depend completly from my computer's performance, let me explain:
Superficial issues:
1. They took off "spaces" and I liked it.
2. I dont use the magic mouse, I need a more accurate mouse for my charts, and it seems they built the entire OS assuming you would use the magic mouse for gestures, scroll, etc to try to mimic in some way the Ipad and Iphone functions, but what if you arent using it like me?
3. I never used that little rocket icon that makes all your apps appear and that could be one of the "improvements on Lion", at first sight it looks nice and slick, but if you try to use it and make it part of your daily use, you would find it is useless, it is a pain to try to arrange it the way you like it, so I rather use the spotlight to search for my apps, its faster.
Now the MOST important, 'performance':
1. It completly suffocate my computers hardware Leopard much more lighter, beggining from the start up that taked almost 1/3 or twice the time, and I think Lion has some bugs bellow the hood, i was doing my normal stuff, some apps running and everything, and suddenly I started to feel the computer a little slow, safari taking forever to open the pages for example, and I opened the activity monitor to see what was going on, and it was there, I was using 4 or 5 gb from my memory, and CPU making insane peaks, and Im using 2.46 gb as im writing it doing exactly the same stuff, (but Im happily using Leopard now), and it wasnt once, as i told before, I used lion since the day they released it and happened several times until it drove me nutts. But leopard not problem in that regard at all, Never.
hope this helps, and hope some apple guys read that because lion resulted in a big disappointment for me.

OSX Mavricks - Any issues with Adobe CS?

Just wondering if anybody has been using Mavricks at all and if there are any issues with Adobe CS at all.

Okay, well I can give a good report on this since I installed Mavericks today and am working with InDesign CC...which, as we all know, already has slowness issues. Well, last I tried to do a simple upgrade to Mavericks and was not able to do it! Seems like the Apple Gurus formatted my hard drive in a way they were *not* supposed to when I had them replace the hard drive at the end of last year, after a hard drive recall for the iMac 27"'s...grrr...THANKS Apple Gurus! So I ended up having to wipe the drive before being able to install Mavericks....then imported all my data over and it worked GREAT! (First time I have done this since I used to always prefer a clean insteall and installing everything from scratch but just did NOT have the energy or will to do it this time around! I was IMPRESSED and all worked well!
And now on to the nitty gitty of my post....long story short, everything worked well EXCEPT for InDesign CC which was slooower than EVER. Before the upgrade, I had gotten it to a point where it was ACCEPTABLE to work in speedwise. But now every little keystroke had a HUGE lag...even selecting a tool from the toolbar would take forever. And typing or selecting text....forget it I wanted to put my head in my arms and cry my heart out. I am in the middle of some huge projects and need to get them done.
And yes, I KNOW...I KNOW...I should NOT be doing something so risky as updating my OS when I have so much work to do. BUT I DID take all the precautions and make all necessary backups prior to doing so!! It is just in my BONES and probably in my DNA that sometimes I just cannot wait to do things like these major OS upgrades...otherwise a little inner voice will keep nagging at me...and I won't be able to concentrate on anything else until I get it done...so I just HAD to go ahead and get it done! I REAAAAALLY wanted Mavericks installed!
And now for the GOOD NEWS! After trying everything else I could think of, I reset the ID CC prefs (which should have been the FIRST thing I did!!) by htting CMD-OPTION-CTRL-SHIFT upon starting ID CC and.....suddenly...lo and behold....WOW....suddenly everything had dramatically speeded up in InDesign! EVERYTHING! Text selection, typing, selecting tools and everything else. I have no doubt that most people who are having slowness issues with ID CC have already tried this and are still experiencing slowness issues....but this worked for me today at any rate. I will keep you posted if I experience any more issues after this.
All I know is I am a happy camper and ID CC seems to now be working faster than it has before.
So...that's my news:)

Any issues with using LDAP on LINUX for GRC 5.2 UME?

Our company is converting our LDAP servers from AIX to LINUX. The DNS name used in our UME connection should not change. Are there any issues with using LDAP on LINUX? We are currently on GRC 5.2 SP9 (in the middle of upgrading to SP12).
Also, I have been trying to connect our test UME system to a test LDAP box that has already been converted to LINUX but keep getting a 'connection failed' error when I try to test it.
Do you have to reboot the server to test changing the LDAP connections? I've been trying it by going into UME, pulling up the LDAP tab, hitting the Modify button, entering the new userid and password for test LDAP, and hitting the Test Connection button. I've verified that this userid and password is correct for test LDAP.
Is there a way to get more information about why the connection failed?
Thanks.

I've been told by our LDAP Support group that none of the other configuration settings should have to be changed. I should only have to change the id and password to connect to a test version of LDAP instead of our regular connection to the production LDAP.
Can you test a connection for a different userid/password without having to reboot/restart the server? Do I need to change these two settings, save then, reboot/restart, and then do the Test Connection button?
Thanks.

Issues with Office 2010 and Acrobat Pro 8

Good Day All;
We are in the middle of upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7 with Office 2010 and I was wondering if there are any issues with importing Office documents into Acrobat Pro 8. I have found out that there are a couple of issue with Office 201 and LifeCycle Designer.
Any comments would be helpful

Chomp

Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Microsoft Office 2010 and the PDFMaker plugins will not install. Only Acrobat X is compatible with Office 2010, and at this time only in 32-bit mode.
Acrobat 8 is also not officially compatible with Windows 7, again Acrobat X is the first version to carry approval for that OS. It will still install, but Adobe cannot guarantee it will operate perfectly in all cases, and doesn't provide install support for that combination.

Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

LiveCycle designer 8.2 issues with Office 2010

Good Day All;
We are in the middle of upgrading from Windows XP / Office 2003 to Windows 7 (32bit) / Office 2010 and I was wondering if there are any issues with Livecycle designed and Office 2010.
I have been that Adobe Acrobat 8.2 does not support Office 2010. I ran into that with trying to install PDF maker.
Any comments will be helpful.

We recently upgraded to Win 7 and to Acrobat 9 (didn't upgrade Office so cannot comment on that). The only issue I have found (and I can only assume it was
due to the OS upgrade or the Acrobat upgrade (or both)) is that I lost use of my Preview tab. In order to be able to preview a form now in LiveCycle, I must first open an instance of Acrobat, otherwise I don't even get a Preview tab. Also, the preview doesn't show up in the Preview tab...it actually opens in Acrobat.
Weird, but I'm getting used to it.

Any issues with PE7 and Windows 7?

Hi All,
I am considering purchasing a second computer. I have had great success with PE7 and Vista, But I can't get Vista on the new Alienware I want to buy. So, has anyone had any issues with PE7 and Windows 7? I have read many posts where there are issues with PE8 and Windows7.
Thanks, Stan

It's a toshiba laptop.
4 gig DDR3
core duo
320 hard drive - partitioned
I also use a dual screen - 22" lcd monitor
I don't use it a lot, since I have a desktop. I've noticed having a
dedicated video card makes a world of difference in editing. This might be
your problem; a dedicated high end video card is the way to go.
If I do simple compilations I don't have any problems. I usaully am making
a DVD of soccer games. If there is a lot of special effects I'll use my
desktop that has XP.

ok a lot of people have had issues with installing the update via the software update option in mac os x tiger now let me explain something first it is not apples fault they did not expect that tons of people would be downloading this update at once which caused problems
some of the issues people have run into are
1.the cd rom after the update the superdrive or regular super drive will not read cds
2.your photoshop application stops working or any adobe product stops working
now the simple fix is this
go online to apple.com select the download section in the support area of this web page once this is done
go and download the update manually and run the update manually this will correct any issues with the update including cd rom drive errors and even adobe product errors

Since Apple know exactly how many systems are out there, have experienced download demands from previous update releases, they very clearly know the kind of demand there will be when a new update for MacOS is released. The issues with Software Update are nothing to do with this - and indeed, historically there have always appeared to be a small proportion of systems that have not functioned correctly with a MacOS update - a quick perusal of MacFixit going back some years would evidence the fact.
When Software Update downloads the wrong components, it's not volume of traffic that causes it, but that when Software Update examines the specific system, it finds components that cause it to misidentify it.
some of the issues people have run into are

There are many reasons users may suffer these, and similar (and very DISsimilar) issues, not just from the update itself, but prebinding, permissions, system caches, font files, plists....
now the simple fix is this
go online to apple.com select the download section in
the support area of this web page once this is done
go and download the update manually and run the
update manually this will correct any issues with the
update including cd rom drive errors and even adobe

You omitted to mention WHICH update file to download - which is the critical part of the advice. Users who experience problems with the update as downloaded by Software Update, should download the 10.4.8 'Combi' update file from the apple/support/downloads page. The combi (combined) update contains the entire thing, not just the bits tailored to what Software Update takes to be the specific system. There are two versions of this file - one for PPC systems and one for Intel - it's important of course to select the correct one for the type of system, being used.
People often say that the Combi update fixes their problem when in fact what may well be happening is that by installing the combi update version, it overwrites faulty files (plists for example) that had caused the problem the user experienced. Installing this version of the update can certainly RESOLVE these kind of problems, but is not the only way to do so.
Simple and easy when it works - undoubtedly so.
