No, these are not filters but they are FREE programs that will help to keep your Mac in top condition or help diagnose problems when using powerful programs like FCE/FCP.
MacJanitor allows you to run the Daily, Weekly and Monthly Maintenance Scripts whenever you want. (Your Mac normally does these automatically early in the morning provided your computer is left on and not sleeping - most of us don't leave our computers on all night).

Ever wondered how fragmented your HD is? Then you should find ShowVolumeFragmentation of interest. This program gives you numerous comprehensive readouts showing the fragmentation on your HD and the amount of unfragmented free space etc. etc. that is available. It also lists the fragmented files starting with those most fragmented.

  • Why am i asked to give credit card details for free apps

    I just bought an ipad mini. Why is it asking me to give credit card details for free apps like Linkedin?

    If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.
    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base, before you post a question.

  • Why don't apple give iTunes song download for free, at least few of the song

    Apple don't give free iTunes song download or bluetooth sharing. I am also an iPhone user and don't have a option to share my songs photos etc to others who are not using iPhone. I prefer free iTunes song download.

    Why should they give you things for free? How many other stores do you walk into that give you things for free? Apple has to pay the artists and record companies for those songs, so Apple therefore has to charge you for them, just as in the case with any store. Apple does in some countries offer a free "song of the week". Look to the bottom of the iTunes Store for the "free on iTunes" button.
    As to sharing songs with others, that's illegal, just as it would be if you made a copy of a CD and gave it away. There are third-party apps in the iTunes Store that do allow some limited sharing of files such as photos via Bluetooth with other iPhones, so you might do a search of the iTunes Store for "bluetooth" and see what comes up. If you want to share with others not using iPhones, you'll need to look to some other service such as Dropbox, Flickr, etc.
    Regards.

    Check the AD manual first then hit their Web site to learn how it is supposed to work.
    There is an automatic duck forum on creativecow.net, I think.
    I don't think you access anything. If it's properly installed, FCP simply uses AD when confronted with an OMF file. But I'm totally guessing, I don't have one of those things. There are some AD users here but, truly, this is the FCP forum.

  • Bought new Mac on 3rd June - could i speak to Apple and ask for free upgrade - this is my first Mac!

    I have never been a Mac owner before now… I considered carefully about whether to buy a Mac or PC and in the end chose my new iMac with i5 Core Processor. I had been a PC user prior to this. I also got 3 years Apple Care. The thing is, if I had been aware that Snow Leopard was going to be available to those buying from 6th June for free, I would probably have delayed buying until then. I am wondering if Apple would be likely to show good faith and give the Snow Leopard for free seeing as I had seriously considered the choice of a Mac and am so close to the date of inclusion. I am sure it would be good PR for Apple to say yes. What do people suggest I do?

    The thing is, unless you know someone who will give you Illustrator 8 for

    Cheap is different, go to eBay and there are a good number of cheap AI 8

  • My apple ipod shuffle's ear headset has lost..And My ipod is in warranty period..So Can I get a new one for free or i should bye ?

    My apple ipod shuffle's ear headset has lost..And My ipod is in warranty period..So Can I get a new one for free or i should bye ?

    Frankly just about any headset with the proper size connection will likely work.  We like ear buds with soft coverings so even when we get a hard headset with a player we swap them out.  While Apple might just possibly give you a set for free since they are not an expensive item, loss is not covered by warranty.  If you're a long drive from an Apple Store it might cost you more in fuel and vehicle wear and tear than going to a local store and buying a comfortable replacement.

  • I smashed the screen of my iphone 5 earlier and it was bought just before christmas, i was wondering will apple repair the screen for free or swap the phone?

    i smashed the screen of my iphone 5 earlier and it was bought just before christmas, i was wondering will apple repair the screen for free or swap the phone? the phone is still working fine, just the screen needs changing by the looks of it.

    Why would Apple replace or repair the phone for free? Will a car manufacturer replace or repair the car you drove into a wall for free? If you sit on your spectacles, will the optician give you another pair for free?
    You can get an out of warranty replacement phone for $199 in the US, similar price in your local currency.

  • Free Automatic Duck .AAF export plug-in not compatible w/After Effects 6.5?

    Greetings,
    There is a free export/import module for FCP that Automatic Duck produces for Apple that lets you export your time line as an AAF sequence. As most of you know, the AAF sequence can be imported in to After Effects and other programs that support AAF, and all of the cuts are in place exactly where they are in the exported FCP sequence. For those of you who do not know the plug-in can be found at the following address, " http://images.apple.com/movies/us/downloads/AutomaticDuckAAF.dmg.sit "
    There is still an issue when importing a FCP produced AAF sequence into After Effects 6.5. Does any one know of a go around or solution to this problem?
    I spend extensive time searching the film/video web community to find the answer, to no avail!!! I do not believe I am doing anything out of skew to cause the problem, but I will explain the steps that I am taking. First, I take a sequence in FCP that is CUTS ONLY, and with the sequence (timeline) itself active or selected (and not in the browser window) I go to the "file" menu -> "export" -> "Automatic Duck AAF". I save the sequence and it is parsed by the plug-in. Then in After Effect 6.5, I import the AAF sequence. Every-time, every way I have tried, I get an error in After effects that says, " After Effects: AEGF Plugin AAF: Error during parsing: Invalid document structure (5027 12) " and "Error occurred while creating project"
    I really need a solution to this problem, because I have a cut that all green screen and of course is is not consistent. Exporting a QT reference is going to be a pain, so I need to get this working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I own approximately half of Automatic Duck.

  • Can an individual create a voice memo for free on their Windows based laptop via Apple website and then send it to perhaps an iCloud client?

    I am hard of hearing and will likely become deaf one day, so for me receiving voice memos (not telephone voice messages) on my iPhone is a nice treat!  Unfortunately not everybody has an Apple device.  Some of my family members and friends have tried to create a voice memo via Windows Media Player and sent it to my email, but as most know... I can't play the voice memos on my iPhone even after trying to use a conversion program to convert the voice memo. 
    So my question is... Can any individual (regardless of device they use) create a voice memo for free on the Apple website and sent it to an Apple client?
    i absolutely love my iPhone.  The accessibility options are wonderful to have for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.  But having this one accommodation done for the hard of hearing people specifically

    @lahwaacz,
    Could you point me to documentation regarding bugs/problems with laptop-mode tools? I'm using that right now and it has always worked pretty well but I'm currently seeing higher temperatures (~10C higher on average) and trying to figure out why.
    My fan operates continually but not, I think, very aggressively. But it has always done that so I assume it is normal for this laptop. (Have no idea really but it doesn't seem out of the way - it is a laptop, after all...)
    I don't know anything about fan control, my laptop controls fan speed automatically, I can't even get current fan speed.
    The main problem with laptop-mode-tools is that it's very huge, and the bigger the program is, the slower is the execution. Another problem is that it's connected to both battery and AC adapter ACPI events (see /etc/acpi/events/lm_{ac_adapter,battery}). On my laptop, those events are sent at the same time, resulting in running laptop-mode-tools twice. Most people once configure laptop-mode-tools to their liking and their hardware, so I think there is no need for such an extensive software like laptop-mode-tools, if something simpler does the same (or better) job.
    Also laptop-mode-tools can conflict with pm-utils (which are installed on many systems as dependency for some packages):

    My sympathy, but, this is what you agreed to when you chose to use a free system: (From terms of service agreement, iCloud)
    APPLE DOES NOT GUARANTEE, REPRESENT, OR WARRANT THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, AND YOU AGREE THAT FROM TIME TO TIME APPLE MAY REMOVE THE SERVICE FOR INDEFINITE PERIODS OF TIME, OR CANCEL THE SERVICE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.
    And this is no different from any other free service I'm afraid. Pay for your mail, then you have the right to expect service.
