Audiophile Uncle - next laptop will be a mac - sound card ?

My uncle currently uses a PCMCIA (something like that) E-MU 1616 sound card interface to connect to his stereo system and some other audio stuff. I was wondering that, if he gets a MacBook Pro, what would be a good replacement for this?
iBook G4 14 1.2GHz, 1.25GB, iMac Core Duo 17" 1.83GHz 1GB   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

If his stereo system has optical inputs, he can connect directly.

  • Laptop will not read any memory cards

    Laptop Model: Satellite P500 (PSPE8C-026006)
    I have tried several times to get this memory card reader to work. At first, I tried putting in a memory stick PRO Duo with the memory stick pro adapter (so that it could read it), and I was getting a "File I/O" error and that the stick had to be formatted. I tried again with several other different sticks and got the same error. I then tried to update the drivers for the device and still no luck. But now, the memory stick is not even being detected at all.
    Could someone please give me a good link to the latest driver for this memory card reader + how and where the device will appear on the Device Manager list so I know it's properly installed.

  • HT4796 will turbotax transfer from my broken hp laptop to a new mac or do I need to buy turbotax for mac and start over with my pc 2011 turbotax file

    will turbotax transfer from my broken hp laptop to a new mac or do I need to buy turbotax for mac and start over with my pc 2011 turbotax file

    You'd have to ask Intuit. They might give you a cross-license to download and install the Mac version.

  • Will "FormEntry for Mac" work on my laptop as well as my iPad?

    Will "FormEntry for Mac" work on my laptop as well as my iPad?

    No.
    FormEntry for Mac is different thant FormEntry Touch (iPad). FormEntry for Mac is free and is the toolkit you need to create form-based iOS apps that work on iPads and iPhones.
    You design your forms on FormEntry for Mac, either sync to your iPad using FormEntry Touch or export your forms to the .form file and email or host it on webserver/Dropbox and have your users load your forms via the Mail app or Mobile Safari.
    Both FormEntry for Mac and FormEntry Touch work together and are required to work together. Both apps are free.
    Cheers.

  • I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

    I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

    I am talking about the Ver 3 download link that came with the purchase email.
    That link is no longer available. Use "Migration Assistant" to copy your Applications from your old mac to the new Mac, then immediately run software update. Aperture Version 3.2 will not run on your new mac with Mavericks, you will have to Upgrade to version 3.4.5 at least - you can download this update from the Support page: Aperture 3.4.5
    Then launch Aperture and enter your registration key and try now too update from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 from the AppStore. The AppStore will change your Aperture registration to an AppStore version, so you will able to reinstall by downloading from the AppSTore in future.
    If you want transfer only Aperture and no other applications, do it manually: You will have to copy not only the application but folders from the libraries as well:
    /Applications/Aperture.app
    /Library/Application Support/Aperture/
    ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/

    I have the same problem. After installing OSX 10.9.3. my Macbook freezes more than 7 times. The problem came up after switching via Thunderbold to a second screen or after "waking" the macbook up. The last time osx didn't boot anymore. It freezes after the "Apple Logo" came up. (grey screen).
    After booting the system with "cmd+V" OSX started again. Now I'm afraid to shut down the system and the macbook runs all day.
    I hope someone can help me, here my perticulars:

  • JSE 6 needed for the next major version of the Mac SAPgui

    Apple has a developers' preview version JSE 6, but they don't yet support it. Hence, the Mac version of the Java SAPgui doesn't yet use JSE 6, even though the Java SAPgui on other platforms does use JSE 6. It is likely that by the time of SAP's next major release of the Java SAPgui, Apple will support JSE 6 and the Mac SAPgui will require it.
    Currently Apple's implementation of JSE 6 requires a 64-bit Intel processor running Leopard. If this remains true in Apple's final release of JSE 6, then the next major release of the Mac SAPgui won't run on any MacOS X prior to Leopard and won't run on PowerPC or 32-bit Intel based Macs even with Leopard.
    I'm told that Sun has both 32-bit and 64-bit JSE 6 JVMs for Windows, for Linux, and for Solaris.
    My organization (MIT) has submitted a bug report to Apple about this. It is possible that Apple might pay more attention if a number of their customers made a joint request.
    If your organization would be interested in joining such a joint request to Apple to support JSE 6 on (at least) all supported Leopard platforms, please let me know.
    Thanks.
    /David Rosenberg    <[email protected]>
    P.S. If you work for Apple and you think you might be able to help with this, please contact me.
    /David

    Here is the current situation with respect to SAP's Mac JavaGui and
    Apple's Java SE 6, as I understand it:
    a. The SAPgui for Java 7.20 is planned for the fourth quarter of
       calendar 2008.
    b. SAP's support for the SAPgui for Java 7.10 is planned to end on
       31-Dec-2008.
    c. The Mac SAPgui for Java 7.20 will be able to use Java SE 6.
    d. SAP has not yet decided whether the Mac SAPgui for Java 7.20 will
       also be able to use an earlier version of Java (i.e. J2SE 5.0).
    e. Apple's Java SE 6 is only available for Mac OS X 10.5.2 and later
       on 64-bit Intel-based Macs (not PowerPC-based or 32-bit Intel-based
       Macs). Apple has not mentioned any plans to support Java SE 6 on
       any PowerPC-based or 32-bit Intel-based Macs or any Macs running
       Tiger, although there is a possibility that Apple might announce
       support for some of those platforms at their upcoming Worldwide
       Developers Conference (June 9-13, 2008, in San Francisco).
    f. Sun has both 32-bit and 64-bit JSE 6 JVMs for Windows, for Linux,
       and for Solaris.
    g. The last PowerPC-based Macs (Power Mac G5) were sold in August 2006
       and the last 32-bit Intel-based Macs (Mac mini) were sold in August
       2007.
    h. Assuming that the Mac SAPgui for Java 7.20 will require Java SE 6
       and Apple doesn't extend their support of Java SE 6 to other
       platforms, then as of 1-Jan-2009, you won't be able to run an
       SAP-supported version of the Mac SAPgui for Java on PowerPc Macs
       bought as recently as August 2006 or 32-bit Intel Macs bought as
       recently as August 2007 or on any Macintosh running Tiger.

    Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
    $19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

  • Moving a drive with OSX to another computer? take it out of my Mac pro laptop and into my mac mini. can it be done with no OS/Hardware issues?

    moving a drive with OSX to another computer? take it out of my Mac pro laptop and into my mac mini. can it be done with no OS/Hardware issues?

    When I work with a drive to boot many computers, I use the newest model computer I will be booting, and set the system up on that, run all the Apple updates. Normally I will have no issue booting any older computer with the same drive. Unless of course those older computers do not support the operating system on that drive.
    If you want to test if the drive will boot the mac mini. Put your MacBook Pro into target mode. Connect the two computers together. And on the Mac Mini, go into system preferences and then under start up disk and see if the target disk mode computer's drive shows up there. Seelct that drive and restart. See if it boots ok. A bit easier then taking the drives out and moving things around.

    What is the next software update for my Mac OS X v10.5.8? What do i need to to do?

    10.5.8 is the last free update available for your system. If you wish to upgrade to newer versions of Mac OS X, you will first need to purchase and install a copy of Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard is back on the online Apple Store, at least in some countries. In the US:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    If it's not listed on the web site of the Apple Store in your country, call the online Apple Store, they may still have copies of Snow Leopard available.
    Once you have upgraded to Snow Leopard, you then will have the option to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion, if you wish to do so and your system will support it.
    Regards.

    Q. Contribute  6.5 trial will not install, Mac 10.6.8 ASAdvisor indicates no issues

    Hi Dominic,
    My problem is essentially as stated.
    I down loaded a trial copy of Contribute 6.5 to my Mac which has 10.5.8
    As this will not support Contribute 6.5 I transferred to download, to 
    my laptop which has 10.6
    It would not install. I wass advised to download Adobe Advisor, which 
    I did and it reported "no issues"
    How should I proceed?
    Thanks
