Are there any differences between using Adobe Illustrator on a MAC and on a PC?

Hello,
I'm about go enroll in a class specialized for teaching Adobe Illustrator in order to be able to use the program at work.  The company that I work at uses Macintosh computers to deal with clerical work and everything, so I would like to know if there are any differences between using Adobe Ilustrator on a MAC and on a PC.  The school that offers training teaches two types of classes, where one uses Illustrator on a MAC, and the other one on a PC.  The PC class is able to have an earlier start date, which is why I'm sort of leaning towards choosing that class as I need to be able to use the software as soon as possible, but if there are main differences between the interface that will affect my knowledge of using Illustrator on a MAC after I take the class with Windows systems, then I will most likely be waiting for the class teaching in MAC systems.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Oh and another suggestion- should I take the Illustrator class in CS6 or CS5?

Reading through the CS5 vs CS6 performance thread, the Mac version seems to have worse performance than Windows version.  From a starter's perspective the differences would most likely never be realized.  It will take some time to see differences between even CS5 and CS6 other than the visual aspect of course.
Definitely take the CS6 versionso you can say you have it.  CS5 is my preferred version, CS6 is garbage with the bugs it has for the type of work I use it for.

  • Are there any difference between iPhone 4S and iPhone 5? What are they?

    What I already know is that iPhone 5 has a larger screen and is slimmer, but are there any difference between the two.  I have iPhone 4S now, should I buy iPhone 5?

    There are a number of major differences between iPhone 4S and iPhone 5, the major one being the processor speed.  iPhone 5 has a much faster processor – two times faster than the processor in iPhone 4S.  This difference is only significant if you use your phone to play high graphics games that require a lot of processing power.  This processing speed also makes the applications load and run faster – iPhone 5 even boots in a shorter time than iPhone 4S.  You can use iPhone 4S comfortably now but when games and graphic apps designed for iPhone 5 are released, you may be forced to upgrade your phone to run the smoothly.

  • Is there any difference between an unlocked Iphone sold in australia and the USA and if i bought one from the USA what would I have to do to use it.

    Is there any difference between an unlocked Iphone sold in australia and the USA and if I bought one from the USA what would I have to do to use it.

    An unlocked phone is an unlocked phone.  It's sold without a SIM card.  You have to get a SIM card from the carrier you want to use, with an account set up, insert the SIM and activate the phone in iTunes.
    Unlocked phones sold by the USA online Apple store can only be shipped to a US address and paid for by a US credit card
    The only difference between an officially unlocked iPhone sold in the US and Australia is the warranty.  The warranty is valid only in the country of sale.  If you buy the phone in the US and return to Australia, if it breaks you have to ship it to a US resident who will get it to Apple and return it to you.  It can't be shipped direct in either direction.

  • Are there any differences between these two kinds of constructor

    one pass x a value in a method;
    another not;
    are there any differences when using them?
    ===========
    class ConstructorA
         int x=1,z;
         public ConstructorA(int a){
              z=a;          
    class ConstructorB
         int x,z;
         public ConstructorA(int a){
              x=1;
              z=a;          
    }

    Well the problems would arrive when you add other constructors:
    - if the default value for x is really 1, whatever the way the object is initialized, then it's better to declare it in x's declaration. Otherwise if someone adds to this class a constructor that forgets to set x=1, x's value will remain 0 and bugs may occur.
    - if the default value for x depends on the way it is initialized, then on the contrary it's better to initialize it explicitly in the constructors, and not in x's declaration so as not to have several constructors with inconsistent code.

  • Are there any differences between black and white?

    Hi, this is the question:
    Are there any differences between a black and a white macbook (2,0 Ghz) except the coulor? I am thinking about buying a macbook but i dont know really what to do
    Coul someone help me plz?

    This page explains the differences between the two white macbooks and the black mac book: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wo/0.RSLID?mco=A 4791B5D&nclm=MacBook
    It should answer any questions you have about all three.
    The lowest price macbook has a less fast processor, and the same size hard drive as the middle priced macbook. The lowest priced one also does not have a DVD burner while the middle priced white one does and the black one.
    The black macbook has a bigger harddrive then the middle priced macbook and thats about all thats different between the middle priced white one and the black one.

  • Are there any difference between fx. the Nvidia FX3800 and GTX 260?

    Does anybody understand why I fell frustrated and confused about all this videocard discussions?
    Some tells me that the FX3800 is a better card - more pro - stabillity etc. than low-price cards - like GTX 260/285/295 - and some tells me that GTX 260 = FX3800. I read on other webpages about how people are having problems having their GTX 260 recognized as a FX 3800 (not in PPro but by Nvidia software). Other places tells about how to softmod GTX 260 to a FX 3800. Some tells me that there is a big difference between these cards - others they are almost alike - same GPU etc. I read that the difference between GTX 260 and FX 3800 is only the looks of it from outside - inside they are alike - and that apart from that only drivers are different.
    I have ordered the FX 3800 - believing it will perform better and more stable and give me really good playback rendering inside PPro CS5 compared to my GTX 260. If I get the same performance and stability by just changing two lines in a textfile with my old GTX 260 I feel cheated...I hope this is not happening.
    Someone from Adobe or Nvidida - please tell us - what there is a differnece between fx. the GTX 260 and the FX 3800 besides from the outside look and some drivers? If there is no difference between them - I can not see any other reason for only supporting the FX cards than $$$...If there are a difference in Quadra/FX favour - and I sincerly hope so -  I understand why you choose Quadro cards - but if they are just alike inside - I just feel we have all been mislead. I could have saved my money...time will show - I get the FX 3800 in a few days...can´t return it (danish rules when you buy it as a company) - so I´m 1000$ short this month...:(
    I would feel much more comfortable in having ordered the FX 3800 if someone from Adobe could tell me excactly how much better FX 3800 is from the GTX 260 - apart from being supported and the GTX is not. And if there is more in it than just changing a simple textfile? Are there any more things going on inside PPro - deep inside - that affects performance with FX cards besides from two lines in a textfile? Who can help answering that question - and I mean really answering it in serious way - not just saying - off course the FX is better - because its more expenssive.
    Haven´t we all experienced this in other situations? Like buying a car? Fx. Inside SKODA FABIA is a VW engine like the ones used in much more expensive VW cars. Only difference is the name and the outside look - and some comfort. The engine is the same - and in a way you could say that from an engine-point-of-view - the cars are alike. But you pay for comfort.
    Is the same thing going on here? I pay more for FX 3800 for the looks of it from the outside and some software-drivers that makes it more stable - but inside it is just like GTX 260? So from a graphic-performance-GPU-point-of-view I actually have two cards that are alike and I reaaly am paying for software and not hardware?
    /Morten

    You are right -. and I keep spanking myself in the head with a wet towel.
    I will lie in my bed - thinking of the nice new bicycle I could have bought instead of the FX 3800....;-)
    No seriously - I know what I have done - and maybe I have done right - I don´t know? Time will show and I will sell or buy.
    What I am frustrated about is the fact that I actually just decided to buy FX 3800 because Adobe and Nvidida toold me too -  to get support for MPE and now it seems that my old GTX 260 is much like the FX 3800 if not the same inside? And I am frustrated about that it is possible to change a line in a simple textfile and suddenly get support for the GTX 260 to play MPE. This fact only put more lit on the conspiracy-fire about Adobe and Nvidia having made a simple software-trick to make some cards work others not = making a lot of money on fools like me...
    You must admitt it is a rather tempting conclusion - if one is in the conspiracy-mood. Well - I try to think good about people. And Adobe convinced me at last that I needed the FX 3800 card. So I did order it eventually - because I need the MPE NOW - Can´t wait - having so bad performance and issues with PPro 4 - been so frustrated about edditting for almost ½ a year now - constantly having issues etc. And I am going to start new big project in 7 days. Have just spend 2000$ on upgrade to Master Collection and have making thoughts about wich card to buy long time ago - the GTX 285 or FX 3800 - to get the MPE support. And same day I order I suddenly see that the softmod makes my old GTX 260 to a FX 3800. And other posts claim that the cards are the same inside. No wonder I get frustrated - others must be the same.
    So what I am trying to say is that: I feel like Adobe and Nvidida is not being honest with us. If it turns out that the only thing Adobe has done is making a simple textfile to make cards supported or not by enteringior changing the names of the cards inside the textfile - and nothing else....And if fx. a softmoded GTX 260 turns out to perform excactly the same and be as stable as a FX 3800 to 5-6 x the price - I will feel cheated and feel like a stupid fool.
    I certainly do not hope this is what is going on. But it seems no one can help me but myself - testing and trying these cards - and I will try to post my results in this forum - so others might have easier tomake a choice...
    I´l be back....
    Cheers

  • Are there any differences between Server 2012 and Server 2012 R2 that might impact TFS or SQL server required for TFS?

    Hi,
    In the interest of just getting started and learning the basics of setting up TFS, I previously setup an IDE using a large workstation running Windows 8.  I set up the required servers for TFS using VM's through Hyper-V.  I am now transferring
    everything to a new and separate physical server.
    My question stems from a problem I had when I originally setup the TFS system the 1st time.  I couldn't get SQL server to work using the Server 2012 R2 download from the subscription center.  When I used Server 2012, it worked, so I proceeded that
    way just to get going.
    So now I'm setting things up anew on a new physical box, I want to ask up front, is there some difference in the R2 version that causes problems with either TFS or SQL server, or was there likely some oversight on my part when I did things the 1st time?
    As an addendum to my question, I always assumed R2 merely means the Server software has progressed to a refined state and is ready for wide distribution and easy setup.  I assumed that there are no differences between the Standard version and the R2
    version.  Is that understanding correct?
    Thanks.

    Hi Daniel,
    Thanks for your response.  That's a great link.  I don't recall seeing a page that is so clear and easy to read back when I was doing this the 1st time, but I probably just missed it.  That helps.
    I am/was using TFS2013 and VS2013.  As I recall, my problem was getting SQL Server to work, but I thought asking this question on this forum was wiser because I figured everyone using TFS would be well familiar with these issues.
    At any rate, it seems as though TFS2013 is fine with Server 2012 standard or R2.
    I was using SQL Server 2012, and it also seems as though it works on R2:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506(v=sql.110).aspx
    Anyway, thanks for your support.  I'll be trying this again and we'll see.

  • HT5429 Are there any differences between iPhone 5's navigator, and iPhone 4s navigator?

    I just need to know if there is a difference between there navigators ..

    As I said in the first reply, there is a difference if the iPhone 4S still has iOS 5x on it. Once you have updated to iOS 6 on the 4S, it will be exactly the same as the iPhone 5. If the 4S has not been updated, it still has the Google Map application on it, and while you can get directions on it, it will not have turn by turn navigation, or spoken navigation.

  • Are there any differences between 64-bit / 4.7 sdk and 32-bit 4.6 sdk?

    I presume the answer is no, but I need to be sure before copying across (and then deleting) the SDKs directory from 4.6.
    EG: I have a 64-bit laptop that I have just upgraded to 4.7 premium and I want to move my entire collection of SDKs across so as to support the range of legacy products I have with different customers.
    Will I encounter any issues or difficulties with simply copying the directory across from C:\programme files (x86)\adobe\adobe flash builder 4.6\sdks to C:\programme files\adobe\adobe flash builder 4.7\sdks ?
    Cheers,

  • Are there any differences between the iPad and iPhone chargers I.e. Volts, amps etc

    Someone I know said that although they are compatible, they charge the devices at different rates. Any truth in this?

    iPad charger is 2amps.
    iPhone is 1 amp.
    The iPhone charger will charge the iPad, but at a slower rate.

  • Why is the price of my Iphone 5s higher than the official price? I bought a 16G balck Iphone 5s in America Airport recently, and it costed me $850. I wondered are there any differences between mine and the ones sold on the apple online store?

    Recently, my friend bought me a 16G black Iphone 5s at America airport and it costed $850.
    But I really hope to know why it cost $201 more than the ones that sold on apple online store, since the consumption tax can't be that much.
    Really hope to get some help.

  • Are there any differences?

    Are there any differences? on Ipod Video bought in USA and Europe? or are they just the same?
    Ive heard that some people have problem with ipods in europe with the pal system when they bought it in USA.
    Regards Kim

    The only difference I would think there would be between iPods sold here or in Europe is the default option for video out display. So, if you buy your iPod in Europe, and you want to display something from your iPod on a TV in the US, you would just have to change and option. Here is an article that goes over that a bit:

    My question is that Is there any difference between AMD 7640g + 7670m (1.5 GB) and AMD 7640g + 7670m (2.5 GB) graphics cards performance...?
    One graphics card hase 7670m 1GB and second one has 7670m 2GB graphics RAM.
    So which one perform better and why....?
    Should I upgrade AMD 7670m 1GB to AMD 7670m 2GB to play latest pc games at highest settings.....?
    Netbook configuration----- 
    HP Pavilion G6 2005AX

    Hi,
    Same GPU but more RAM will perform better. You have to make decision before hand, upgrading it is a pain.
