Anyone using the magic trackpad with iPhoto 11 in fullscreen mode?

I love fullscreen mode in the new release of iPhoto. Does the magic trackpad make it more iPad/phone like?

To answer you question, no. I have the trackpad and it does NOT make the experience any different than it is on a laptop. There is NOT any iPad like gestures that are included in the Photo App on the iPad. I thought there would be some but unfortunately there are not magic things LIKE the iPad

Has anyone figured a way to use the Magic Trackpad with Windows 7 on a partitioned disc using Bootcamp?

Has anyone figured a way to use the magic trackpad with Windows 7 on a partitioned disc using Bootcamp?

Yes. After Windows/Bootcamp discovers your bluetooth device (Magic Trackpad or Mouse, be sure to make it discoverable), right click, with your wired mouse, of course, on the icon and select Properties.
Then check the mouse drivers box and your device should work. (I located this solution on another thread)
It works for both the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad.
Must admit, the solution was not intuitive within the Windows environment. But we all must remember. It IS Windows, after all.
Another thing. Keep in mind that the gestures on these devices that work just dandy in OSX do not carry over into Windows.
It's Windows.

Can I disable the internal trackpad if I am using the magic trackpad

I am using the magic trackpad with my 11" MacBook Air and want to disable the notebook trackpad. Is this possible. No obvious setting in the system trackpad preferences.

Yes, It's in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > check "ignore internal trackpad when external mouse or trackpad present.

Can i use the magick trackpad with the ipad?

can i use the magick trackpad with the ipad? and the iphone?

I'm looking for this same answer, I wonder if any new info. I've gone from posts saying why would anyone want to, and I now see that this is in the ATV section, which actually suits me because the setup I'm using it for is when I don't want to be up in my office on my iMac, but rather in the lounge in front of the big screen with my iPad mirrored to the Apple TV and bt keyboard connected. I wouldn't actually suggest anyone go out and buy a Magic Mouse or trackpad, but since I already have them would like to use it to make things easier when using my iPad as a mini computer with my TV as the screen. I can currently use the iPad to scroll no problem, but if I have to click somewhere specific then I must look at the iPad screen vice just moving a mouse or trackpad and having a pointer show up on my screen. Obviously if my iMac was much closer, I could mirror that screen and my keyboard and mouse would work just fine. (That is if my iMac was newer, but it's not, its a late 2009 model and that apparently is not new enough to be compatible with airplay mirroring.)

Organizer 12 - how to zoom over 100%, compare images, use the Magic Trackpad?

English Version below.
Hallo zusammen. Ich bin von Apple Aperture auf PSE 12 gewechselt. Nun habe ich meine 11500 Fotos im Organizer und ein paar Startschwierigkeiten.
Ich habe in den Voreinstellungen angegeben, dass man Fotos auf über 100% skalieren darf. Das funktioniert aber nicht. Fotos werden immer nur im Fenster eingepasst, wenn der Zoomhebel ganz nach rechts steht.
Einzig in der Vollbildansicht kann man über 100% skalieren. Dies funktioniert aber auch, wenn ich die Voreinstellung dazu nicht gesetzt habe.
ie vergleiche ich mehrere Bilder? Im Handbuch steht beschrieben, dass man dazu aus dem Menü Ansicht -> Bilder Vergleichen wählen soll. Diesen Menüpunkt gibt es bei mir nicht.
Auch bei dem Druck auf F12 geschieht bei mir nichts. Kann ich die Tastenfunktionen irgendwo neu zuweisen?
Zu guter Letzt: kann ich die Zoom & Pinch Funktion des Magic Trackpads irgendwie einschalten? Das vermisse ich sehr. Da war Aperture sehr Bedienerfreundlich.

Hi there. I switched from Apple Aperture to PSE 12. Now I have my 11500 photos in the Organizer and a few teething problems.
I have specified in the preferences that you can resize photos to over 100%. This does not work. Photos are always fitted only in the window when the zoom lever is all the way to the right.
Only in the full-screen view you can scale over 100%. However, this also works if I have not set the setting in the preferences.
How do I compare multiple images? The manual describes to select from the View menu -> Compare images. This menu item does not exist for me. (German Version)
Also by pressing F12, nothing happens. Can I re-assign the button functions somewhere?
Last but not least: How can I use the zoom & pinch from the Magic Trackpad? I 'm missing that very much. Aperture was very user friendly with that.

Hello Barbara and thank you for your answer.
I've ment side by side view. And it works by pressing F12 + cmd. Thanks.
Zoom & Pinch only works in the Editor, but not very well or smooth. And I couldn't tell you how often the Editior rotate my images unwanted ...
In the preferences of the Organizer, there is no point for a scroll wheel. And I'm really not able to zoom in the organizer over the "fitts in screen" size.
And I've found some more problems Sometime I'd like to export my images without any Exif/Metadata Information and resized. I haven't found any point do do so.
At the Moment, I'm thinking about switching back to Aperture, where I came from - I've tried to use PSE 'cause of Adobes Raw Converter, which is much much better with Olympus RAW Files than Apertures.

How do I use the magic mouse with a windows pc

Is it possible to enable touch features of the magic when using it with a PC running windows 7?

Hi.
I've used the iMic myself, and I don't believe it is capable of doing what you are attmepting.
The iMic is designed to provide a USB input for an external microphone, and USB output for external speakers for your Mac. It has a mic input port, and a speakers out port.
Neither port is specified for use with a gaming headset (mic with headset on a single plug).
You will need to look elsewhere for a USB gaming headset.
I hope this is helpful.

Has anyone used the MXL iBooster with GarageBand?

I am trying to find a good, cheap, interface to record acoutic guitar music while using GarageBand. Any suggestions? Is the MXL iBooster any good?

Never used the iBooster probably works fine but for a few dollars more you could get a digital interface. A digital interface would be much more useful allowing for more audio in and out options and wet or dry monitoring.

Can I use a magic trackpad with more than one Mac at a time?

I am attempting to pair a MTP with a second MacBook Pro. So far I can't get system preferences to find the MTP.
I am wondering whether the MTP can be paired with only one Mac at a time, and that this is why my MBP won't find it.
The reason I am thinking this is because the little booklet that comes with the MTP says 'after you pair your MTP with a Mac, you can pair it again with a different Mac. To do this, you first remove the existing pairing and then pair the trackpad again'.
Can anyone advise, please?
If it can be paired with more than one MBP at a time, any suggestions why my system preferences search for the MTP is not producing any results?
Thanks

Yes, your keyboard, mouse or trackpad can be paired with multiple Macs. You can even have multiple keyboards, mice or trackpads paired with one Mac. The caveat is that the device can only be connected to one Mac at a time. The device can't be paired or connected with a Mac while it's currently connected to another.
Pairing a device with 2 Macs will be troublesome if the Macs are located within 33 ft of each other. The device will connect with the first available paired Mac and then unavailable to the second. If the Macs are located outside the 10meter range, it's quite easy to power off the keyboard (forcing a disconnect) then walking the keyboard to Mac 2 and powering the keyboard on. I do this with a keyboard from my iMac to a Mac Mini in another room.

Anyone use the Line6 KB37 with Logic?

I've been planning to get a new interface and was going to go with the Apogee Duet, but then discovered the Line6 KB37. Can anyone here that has it comment on it? How are the mic pres? Is it pretty stable? How is the latency? Feedback appreciated. Thanks....

hi..i've advocated the KB37 many times on this forum, you get a lot of bang for your bucks, the best aspect is that there is ZERO LATENCY!!, that's right, absolutely ZERO, so you can set logics buffer to max and it wont matter, this is because the KB does all the monitoring. The mic pre's however are very average, but for what you pay that's no surprise. You can hear some of my work on www.steveshadforth.com ,all logic and KB37. Good luck with whatever choice you make, keep coming back to the forum!! Steve

HT4273 Can the Magic Trackpad be set up to run on a Windows 8 computer...not in Boot Camp but an actual Windows Computer?

My computer is a MacBook Pro using the Magic Trackpad and unfortunately I also have had to purchase a Windows 8 computer to teach Windows 8 touch gestures. I would much rather use the Trackpad which I have fallen in love with, on the new Win 8 machine.
Thanks for any responses
iPadProf

it will show on itunes front summary page the date of last backup, but you can also find it in preferences, by going to edit - preferences - devices - you will see all of your backups.

Is anybody else struggling with an intermittent connection when using the Magic Mouse/Trackpad ONLY on Boot Camp?

Hi,
I've seen thousands of posts about Bluetooth connection issues and interference and stutter/lag for both the Magic Mouse and Trackpad (affecting both Mac OS X and Windows under Boot Camp) but my problem is different.
To summarise my setup, I use:
- Retina MacBook Pro (lid closed or open, doesn't make a difference to this problem)
- Thunderbolt Display
- Wireless Keyboard
- Magic Trackpad (have also tried a Magic Mouse and experience similar issues to the Trackpad)
And in Mac OS X, everything works perfectly. The keyboard and trackpad work smoothly when I'm 6-7 metres from the machine, whether or not the laptop lid is open or closed, and whether or not the Thunderbold Display is connected.
But on to my problem: the bluetooth connection is incredibly unreliable/intermittent when in Windows (I run Windows 7 64-bit and Boot Camp 4.0, and got both devices connected without any trouble via Bluetooth).
But during usage, the cursor stutters/lags frequently, and tap to click (when enabled) seems to get triggered by mistake all the time (even when I'm not touching the Trackpad or even at the computer, clicks get registered).
The Wireless Keyboard is perfect, and works well 5 metres from the machine. The Mouse and Trackpad, though, don't even work reliably when they are 6 inches from the machine. The built-in trackpad on the laptop works perfectly too, in Windows and Mac.
I spent a week assuming I was suffering from Bluetooth interference, so I tried:
- using the laptop with the lid open
- removing the Thunderbolt display completely and trying the Magic Trackpad
- repositioning items on my desk
- disabling wifi
All of these adjustments made minor differences to how good/bad the Trackpad was, but none came close to fixing the problem or making it work as smoothly as under Mac OS X. It was only after doing all of this that I realised perhaps it was just a Apple driver for Windows issue, so I booted into Mac OS X and tested everything out, and sure enough, it's all perfect. But back into Windows, the Trackpad doesn't work reliably at all.
Obviously, the hardware is not at fault, and I assume the signal strength doesn't vary between operating system (why would it?) so I'm left believing this must be a driver issue. The TrackPad and Magic Mouse drivers have been out for a couple of years, so I'm surprised they can still be this bad. I tried both the latest driver from Boot Camp 4.0 (3.2.0.0) for the Trackpad, and also the older one from Boot Camp 3.2 (3.1.0.7) and both are equally bad for me.
So my question is: has anybody else struggled with using the Trackpad (or Magic Mouse) with Boot Camp 4.0 and Windows 7 64-bit, whilst finding it to be perfect under Mac OS? I haven't found many posts complaining about the Windows driver, which is why I assumed it was an interference issue. But I'm almost sure it isn't, having spent 2 weeks investigating.
Any thoughts/suggestions/answers much appreciated!
Kyle

SOLVED!
After much testing, I have found the cause of lagging/jumpiness on the Bluetooth Magic Mouse and Magic TrackPad in Boot Camp. Hopefully this will help others:
The drivers for the Broadcom 802.11n Wireless Adapter have a setting called "Bluetooth Collaboration" that is Disabled by default. Enabling this option removes the problem instantly. My Magic Trackpad now works flawlessly, even if I stand 6 metres from the machine. It now works just as well as under Mac OS. The setting can be found under:
Control Panel > Device Manager > Network Adapters > Broadcom 802.11n Network Adapter (right click and choose "Properties". Under the "Advanced" tab, highlight the setting named "Bluetooth Collaboration", then change it to Enable. Then click OK.
I narrowed the problem down to the wireless card by disabling ALL startup services and processes for Windows, then re-enabling one by one. As soon as I enabled the Windows Wireless Service, the problem came back. Similarly, disabling the Wireless Card inside the Network and Sharing Center (or Device Manager) removes the problem. This led me to believe it must be a driver issue with the wireless card, since the problem didn't occur with the Magic TrackPad under Mac OS, or on my mother's Windows 7 64-bit computer. So when I went into the Driver Properties to check for an update, I found this setting about Bluetooth Collaboration.
I really hope this helps others trying to use Bluetooth devices under Boot Camp. All Apple notebooks use the Broadcom card (and have done for years), so this driver is installed for almost anybody using Boot Camp on an Apple notebook. I'd assume this problem would affect anybody using Boot Camp + wifi + a Bluetooth device.
Cheers

Anyone use the Panasonic DMC-ZS7 with iPhoto?

I'm thinking of getting the Panasonic DMC-ZS7 camera, which has a built-in GPS. Out of the new compact cameras with built-in GPS, this seems to have the best built-in GPS support. Before I get it, I just want to confirm that the GPS data it writes to the EXIF header can be used by iPhoto correctly. I use iPhoto '09 (8.1.2).
Has anyone used the ZS7 with iPhoto?

I recently turned the GPS function on. I am unsure if GPS is the problem, but the spinning busy next to the "Places" menu item certainly points that direction.
I would actually argue the opposite, that the spinning busy means that iPhoto can read the GPS data correctly. The fact that it is trying to determine places would indicate that it sees GPS data. More likely the spinning busy is due to something after getting the GPS data like trying to look up actual place info online to get names or downloading maps or something of that sort.
