Any modem/routers that are known to work well with macbook?

Apart from airport.....
I have a Dlink now, wich works fine when the macbook runs on windows, but drops the signal every 5min when it runs on Tiger. Also when I try to copy large files from a shared network drive, finder frozes!!!!

Before ditching you Dlink you may want to see if the suggestions here…

… work. Not to mention I've heard that changing the preamble on the Dlink from a short to a long preamble fixes things as well.
Apart from that, I've always had good success with 3com wireless modem/routers. You can also turn the wireless off on the DLink and then conenct say an Airport Express/Extreme to it for wireless as well.

USB Framegrabbers that are known to work with NI-IMAQ-dx

Does anybody know of any (preferably compact) USB framegrabbers, whether in a finished package, or in chip / development board form, that are known to be compatible with the IMAQ-dx capture? I am currently using a Zarbeco Videolink USB Framegrabber, but I get an unknown error message when attempting to interface with it through NI-IMAQ-DX in both Labview 8.5 (kept around for some legacy programs), and Labview 2012. Other USB webcams work just fine with the VI, so I know it's not an error in my code - just a problem with this particular framegrabber talking to Labview. I also know that the framegrabber works fine, because it can be viewed in other video capture programs such as AmCap. I'd prefer to figure out if a replacement USB framegrabber would be suitable BEFORE I make a purchase, so if anyone knows of any USB composite video framegrabbers that work well with NI-IMAQ-dx, I would appreciate the info.

Hi James,
In order for any USB camera or USB video adaptor to work with the IMAQdx driver it must be DirectShow compatible. If your Video Adaptor advertises DirectShow compatible then it should work with our IMAQdx driver. Please follow the guide lines from the link below to find a proper device.

If you device is DirectShow compatible and you are having issue please look through the link below.

My Mac suddenly stopped playing through my external speakers which are fine and working well with other devices.

My Mac suddenly stopped playing through my external speakers which are fine and working well with other devices.

Have a look in System Preferences -> Sound -> Output.
Plug the speakers out. Do you now see "Internal Speaker" as the name from the Built-in device? If you replug your speakers, is it now changing to "Headphone?

Am I Understanding Correctly That iPhoto Doesn't Work Well With Others?

After reading all the previous posts and topics on iPhoto vs. LR2 and such with RAW/NEF file formats, they simply don't work well with each other, right?
Basically, what I am trying to understand like a lot of others is that the way they read/write file info is dramatically different.
I just started using LR2 in the trial period and maybe I'm just not used to it yet but I still like using iPhoto for organizing my library of photos; it seems a lot easier with the folders and albums and such.
I also started using Nikon's RAW format NEF and working with them in iPhoto is a loser it seems.
Other than the obvious increase and control and options availabe for editing in LR, is iPhoto all that bad with working with NEF or RAW files? What is the downside to it?
Thanks for reading.

The problem is that Lightroom and iPhoto are essentially the type of application.
They are both Photo Managers, they both want to own and control the pics, to be your central “go to” app for whenever you want to get a photo. Obviously only one can be the primary application.
Lightroom - a rather more expensive application - is a professional app, aimed at the Pro Photographer. It’s a rather more powerful app in pretty much every way. For a point of comparison, Lightroom is closer to Apple’s Aperture rather than iPhoto.
On top of that, earlier versions of Lightroom had a bug in the way that it wrote metadata to the file and iPhoto was unable to import these files - tho’ I believe that’s been fixed since.
As to the RAW/NEF issue, There’s no point dealing in filetypes. Each model of camer produces a different RAW file, so what you need to tell us is the Model of Nikon you use. For instance iPhoto imports the NEFs from my D40 with no problems.
As to “working well with others” iPhoto integrates with just abou every app on your mac, make the pics available in every ‘Open...’ dialogue in the OS, with Mail app and an any image editor you care to mention.

How do I know if this update is appropriate for Windows Vista? I have done updates before, only to discover that they did not work well with Vista.

I keep getting a message that I need to update to firefox version 7. I can't find any information to help me know if this version is compatible with Vista. I did an "automatic" update in the past, and needed to uninstall it because it did not work well with Vista. firefox is not giving me any info regarding this - it just says install it.

I need a new modem. Which modems work well with MacBook Pro and Airport Express?

You need to inquire from your ISP which modems are compatible with their netwrok. They should give you a list.

What network audio sounds systems (e.g. Sonos) are recommended to work well with Macs?

I'm looking to replace my audiophile stereo system with a network audio system at home. Had NAD components with English Epos hand-made speakers that sounded great, but very immobile. I need speakers in each room of the house that can be networked, but which sound good. Can anyone recommend a good system? I've heard that Sonos doesn't play iTunes and doesn't sound very good anyway compared to more high-end wired systems.
Have a MacBook Pro and a MacBook Air with Time Capsule router and Airport Express unit. All music on iTunes.

1) How does Final Cut Pro 6 handle native HDV?
Just like FC5.... no worries
2) Is it beneficial to convert to Pro Res 422
Just like the Cineform codec you will benefit from an all i-frame codec when working with titles and graphics. I wouldn't recommend capturing native then converting to ProRez as this will take an extremely long time. Many have found editing native up until the compositing then dropping the sequence into a ProRez timeline to render. I prefer to uncompress the HDV with hardware into a capture card and transcode on capture in real time. Depending on the flavor of HDV and the equipment you use you can probably find a method for this. I shoot run & gun field work on to tape, then with the deck I can export via HDMI and together with another product from Convergent Design it is converted to HD-SDI in the a Kona LHe into FC. The benefit for me is the all digital decompression from 1440x1080 4:2:0 to a 1920x1080 4:2:2 uncompressed HD-SDI signal to use anyway I need to. As to which level of PR I can't comment but I have used the lower level and it looks great. As to raid setup I can recommend www.maxupgrades.com to help you add two - four more drives internally for unbelievable speed and expanded storage space you will want. The owner (Syed) will give you all the support you need to take advantage of the Mac Pro capabilities for a low cost high performance raid solution. Sounds like you have a great setup in mind, you may want to look into the Kona LHe capture card for capturing and monitoring and a Convergent Design product like the HD-Connect SI or MI depending on the deck you are using. If you need broadcast quality monitoring look into the Matrox MXO.
Good Luck

Does cubase work well with MacBook pro?

Looking into buying a MacBook pro and wondering if using it for music and running cubase through it is good?

I have been using Vistitle a lot on EDIUS and have also produced some videos on its basic use that you can see on YouTube. I am also a reseller but I do sell all the other titles programs as well so am pretty objective.
I do think Vistitle is brilliant and quick. It is quite "after effects" like in its interface and can do a gue amount of things. I could do most of the same things in After Effects which you may have if you are on the Cloud or have a Production Premium, although I find no easy way of doing the particle effects that Vistitle has in After Effects and the 3D text is quicker to render for me. The main advantage I find is speed and ease of use since it is working directly in Premiere as opposed to using the AE dynamic link.
The have also just prodcued a trial versions which you can use and see how well you get on with it : http://www.vistitle.com/listdownload.asp?id=62
Vistitle uses a dongle for copy protection so if you decide to buy it you will need something physically sent to you - which may or may not be a problem where you are with Christmas coming. In the UK, where I am, this means you would have to order it before the end of next week, or wait until next year.

Would a Firewire hub work well with Macbook?

I'm thinking of buying a Macbook for music production. I have an audio interface which is FW400 and I would also need an external hard drive. If I used a Firewire hub, would it slow down my hard drive or create problems with my audio interface? How could I get both working at the same time?

what music program are you using? i use protools and the only thing i need that is firewire is my external HD. my MPC is hooked up through USB and MIDI and my keyboard/controller is USB also. what else would you need that is firewire?
sorry now i see your interface is FW400. usually a firewire interface will have extra fire wire ports in it. like my firewire HD has another firewire port on it. but i guess if that doesnt work then a hub would be fine.

Does the Panasonic AG-HMC150 AVCHD work well with FCE?

My buying finger is poised over the "send" button so that I can buy a Panasonic AG-AMC150 AVCHD camcorder, but I read a couple of reviews which have given me pause.
One says that FCE does not work well with this camcorder and I need a REaLLY powerful Mac or I am sunk.
Yet another says that working with this 'corder's AVCHD and FCE is a pain in the neck.
A little first hand knowledge would be an enormous help. Thank you.
(PS They did not use the words 'sunk' or 'neck.')

Sasha, once again, thank you.
No questions, but for the sake of completeness, and to assist those who may read this thread, let me make a couple of comments.
I like this camcorder, because of its features and price, and I am about to buy it. If I were doing event work, such as weddings, I don't think I would. I make family documentaries and scripted movies, so a shoulder mount is not important to me.
I like to buy from Amazon. They sported a low price and I have always had an excellent experience with them. Their supplier is Willoughby's whom I looked up on Sellerratings.com. The reviews I read there led me to decide to buy nothing else from Willoughby's, just the camera, and to examine it carefully when it arrives to make sure that it is in its original sealed packing. I recommend that you check Sellerratings.com before placing an order, too. I trust Amazon, but I am sending off my order with some trepidation. I shall buy a larger battery and some SD cards elsewhere. (The battery that comes withe the camcorder seems to be universally despised.)
Beware of the reviews on the Amazon site. A large number of them, mostly mis-spelled, are, to me anyway, suspiciously rapturous. No camcorder is that good. One reviewer said that the HMC150 changed his life. Really?
The Panasonic site has a wealth of detail about this camcorder.
I found some good and useful info on YouTube, too, particularly one video which showed a videographer using the this camcorder and explaining his set-up procedures step by step.
Much about requirements and compatability can be seen in this thread. Thank you Sasha
OK That is enough. Hope this was of some help.

I did an auto software update on my iMac, which included a restart. When the machine restarted it's stuck with an Apple logo and spinning wheel. I've tried all of the key strokes that are supposed to work, but nothing has. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Gray screen could be any number of things, bad third party at boot kext file, a bad Apple one, a bad install/upgrade of OS X, drive corruption etc.

A "quick" fix that worked for me was to uninstall Adobe... then download the base install for Adobe Reader 11.0.
Then download each of the individual updates and run them sequentially.
I've installed back up to the last security update which is version 08 and have been able to do normal Save As operations.
You will have to disable automatic updates in order to stay at version 08 until Adobe resolves this issue in a later release.
