Big difference between iMac and MacMini for a basic FCP usage?

Hi all,
the question is the one on the subject.
The comparison is between the:
- iMac 3.06Ghz 8GB 512vRam (the one on my signature here below)
- MacMini 2.4Ghz 8GB 256vRam
I would like to know if i will notice significant differencies in a basic usage of FCP: i mean a usage of FCP more like if it was FCExpress...

Thanks Tom, this is due to hardware limitations i suppose ?
There is some link/resource where i can read wich applications are compromised?
thanks again

  • Would there be a problem with the warranty in the UK if bought in USA? Plus is there a big difference between US and UK keyboards? Thanks

    Hi, I'm from the UK and in the USA for a week. I'm thinking of purchasing an Air. Would there be a problem with the warranty in the UK if bought in the US? Plus is there a big difference between US and UK keyboards?
    Cheers

    There are subtle differences on a British layout, mainly having to do with the top line (shift numbers), to permit the use of European monetary symbols. There are a few other keys different (note the enter key).
    Here are the basic layouts. Obviously the MBA won't have an eject key, as the power key resides in that location.

    iPad apps are designed specifically for the iPad and will not run on the iPhone or iPod Touch. iPhone/iPod apps will run on the iPad, but will only take up an iPhone sized portion of the iPad screen (though you get a 2x button which effectively doubles each pixel in both directions so may appear pixelated). There are also 'universal' apps (which have a '+' symbol against them in the store) which have processing in them to recognise the device that they are on and will tailor the display accordingly (so will make use of the iPad's larger screen).

  • What is a difference between MB01 and MBST  for GR Cancellation

    Hi,
    What is a difference between MB01 and MBST  for GR Cancellation.
    Regards,
    Aditya

    Hi,
    MB01 is used for doing the GR for collective PO at a single instance.
    This transaction will be utilize when an individual needs to create a material document.  A material document can only be displayed or changed after it has been generated in the SAP system.  In a computer based inventory management system, the principal of "no posting without a document" applies.  A material document is generated and stored in the SAP system for every transaction that causes a change in stock.
    As mentioned, when a goods movement is posted a material document is created.  It serves as proof of the movement   If the movement updates a G/L account; an accounting document is also created. The material and accounting document s are identified by unique document numbers
    Once you have posted a goods movement, you cannot change material numbers, quantities or account numbers in the material document.  You can however use the Change command to enter additional or change text information such as comments or references.  To reverse the movement or change a quantity, a new transaction must be performed.
    MBST:-
    Perform this transaction when a previously performed goods issue must be cancelled due to an error in data entry or other circumstances deem the previous transaction unnecessary.
    Prerequisites:-
    A previously played transaction that requires cancellation.
    An existing Material Document in SAP.
    This Transaction will be utilized when an individual needs to cancel a material document due to a data entry error or other circumstances deem a previous transaction unnecessary. A material document can only be cancelled after it has been generated in the SAP system. A material document is generated and stored in the SAP system for every transaction that causes a change in stock.
    Performing this transaction will "undo" a previous transaction by reversing individual line items in a material document or by reversing an entire material document. This transaction will reinstate the affected cost center, purchase order or stock location to the state they were in prior to playing the original transaction.

  • Big Difference between Catalog and Nocatalog

    Hi,
    i´m always facing the discussion, what is the big difference between using a catalog and nocatalog
    i start with the points i know. could somebody please add some points? Thanks
    (+) Catalog
    1. All Controlfiles could be lost (but if you have controlfile autobackup it should not be a great problem without the catalog)
    2. keep forever backup (controlfiles yould only save information up to 365 days)
    3. many database backups could be administrated inside the catalog (but what if yoiu want to know: which of my 100 databases are not backed up yesterday?)
    4. ....?
    (-) i had some crash scenarios that worked only without catalog
    (-) backup of the catalog
    (-) another database on another server
    Thanks
    Marco

    Hi,
    Using catalog you have the advantage to keep global RMAN script. Those scripts can be run against any of the databases registered in the catalog.
    You can use following command to see the script if already written and stored in catalog:
    RMAN > print script "local_script_name.rcv" ; [specific to your database and would run against your database]
    RMAN > print global script "script_name.rcv"; [global script which can run on all the database registered with catalog]
    Thanks

  • Differences between AIX and Windows for SAP

    Dear All,
    I have a problem regarding SAP Software.We want to change our company software .First we order SAP On Windows with Oracle10g But Now We want SAP on AIX with Oracle10g.
    SAP delivered us software on Windows platform.
    Please Suggest me for this as what are the differences between the above two platforms and what are the differences between the above 2 platforms.
    Regards,
    Pankaj Kalsayan

    hi Pankaj,
    well, this is a very general question. perhaps you could specify a little more.
    in general i would see no difference regarding the end user sitting in front of his pc using sapgui.
    as far as i know all server side sap software is available for aix and windows (and many more).
    for administration on the other hand there is of course lots of difference. AIX is a UNIX operating system running on special hardware with power processors. it offers quit extensive virtualisation abilities using so called LPARs and supports real big number of CPUs and large RAM. Windows is a completly differnet operating system running mostly on x86/amd64 hardware.
    therefore you should also consider what know-how is available in your system administration.
    not shure if that is partly answering your question ...
    btw. if you are going forward with AIX you should perhaps consider switching oracle with db2. so you have a consistent IBM based landscape. also to me, sap and db2 seem to "like" each other more than sap and oracle

  • Big difference between Retina and non-Retina MacBooks on ACD?

    I'm deciding between a 13" MacBook pro/retina and a 13" MacBook Air. It'll mostly be used with my 24-inch, Late 2008 (1920 x 1200) Apple Cinema display. Will I see a big difference in text clarity with the Retina Pro instead of an Air plugged into it? Thanks for any advice.

    Thank you very much for the reply Geoff93......but I'm still baffled.
    If what you say is so......Is BT not my ISP ?? ......(and therefore "bypassing their own congestion" to achieve better figures) ?     How come other users show speedtest.net download figures of 30+ Mbs when I struggle to get more than 10 ?  and still doesn't explain why my download speed is nearly always less than upload speed ?
    The Openreach engineer said that according to his meter on installation I had a possible 37+ Mb down and almost 10 up....but in practice he was only getting Speedtest.net readings of around 4.5 Mbs to 11 Mbs using both wireless and/or ethernet cable and using three different computers  (with three different versions of Windows) to cross check. 
    I had hoped (and expected from the option 2 + Anytime calls Infinity monthly agreement taken on !) that the speed of operation would have been quite noticeably faster than the old 1 Mb down / .5 Mb upload copper cable connection but it has not .....and is less reliable having dropped connection regularly last week. 

  • Difference between LTS and lT for expression bulide

    I am using the OBIEE 10g ,in the administration tools , can you tell me the difference between '...' button for expression bulide(Column Mapping) in the Logical Table Source and '...' button for expression bulide in the Logical Column ?
    Thanks.
    Edited by: kobe on Jan 8, 2012 10:00 PM

    hai..
    I wil tell you with example. In bmm layer, amount_sold is there and it is aggregated.Suppose, if you want to reuse that aggregated column, we cannot. At that time, create a new logical column ,goto-->expression builder-->select the logical fact table-->logical column(i.e,amount_sold).By doing this, we can reuse that amount_sold column.

  • Reading list sync between iMac and iPad for offline reading

    If I add to reading list on my iMac, and then go to the reading list on the iPad, all is OK. I can read the items, but only if I am connected to the internet. Is it possible to set up reading list that means the content of the page is also somehow cached to the ipad? for reading off line... Thanks for any help or suggestions.

    Linc Davis,
    I have set up my email address both within my iMac and my ISP as IMAP accounts and I receive all emails without problem on my iMac. I have also set up an iCloud email address using my iMac.
    I have enabled the email within "setting" on my iPad and have used the iCloud account.  I have sent emails from the iMac to iPad using the iCloud account address and vice versa.  I have also sent emails from the iPad to the iMac using my non-iCloud email address and they have gotten through.
    The one thing I would like to have is for the iPad "mail" mailboxes to mimic the iMac "mail" mailboxes and both to be "in sync".  I am not really interested in using the iCloud email address for my email but would really like to use my "normal" addresses as these are what most people know me by.
    Do I need to set additional accounts within the iPad which are the same as the email accounts I have within the iMac and my ISP?  I have reached the end of my knowledge as regards email synchronsing.
    Thanks

  • INternet speed difference between iMac and MBP

    I have an imac 27" that is barely one year old and a three year old MBP. Today, I signed up for faster Fios internet service which is supposed to be a maximum of 25 Mbs both up and down. I then checked the speed on my iMac and see I am averaging about 10 Mbs down and about 8 Mbs up. I am not that concerned that I am not getting the theoretical maximum performance. For one thing I am not hardwired to my router but am using wireless g. I also ran the Mac internet tuner that seemed to actually increase the speed somewhat.
    I then checked my MBP that is sitting right next to my iMac. I am getting around 15 Mbps down and about 17 Mbps up. I repeated this several times as I did for the iMac. I am surprised at the iMac being so much slower (about 33% slower). I can only assume the hardware in the MBP is better for wireless communication than in the iMac. Can someone explain why this is so?
    thanks,
    Shannon

    Download an app such as Speedtest to your iPad.  Test both ways and see the results for yourself.

  • Differences between 7 and 8 for long books

    I am considering FM 7 and 8 for producing a long book.  The issue with 8 is that it requires SP2 on XP, and I can't put that on my writing system.
    So that would favour 7 unless its features are noticably lacking compared to 8.  Here are the book requirements, please read carefully --
    * There are 4 parallel columns spread across 2 facing pages -- each column has its own text, layout, font and size, different from texts in other columns.
    * All 4 columns in the spread (2 on even pages, 2 on odd pages) must retain their positions on the spread, no matter which page of the book you turn to.
    * There is absolutely no left to right wrapping of columns in a parallel column layout.  This means all columns flow down - even to even, and odd to odd.
    * This page flow must be automatic -- I am simply NOT going to draw frames for all pages and manually link them across a 400 page book, it is absurd.
    I need to know which one of 7 or 8 supports automatic wrapping of 2 columns on even pages to the next even page, and the two columns on the right odd pages to the next odd page (if you don't understand this requisite column flow, please leave it for other to reply who do -- thank you).  If both FM 7 and 8 are more or less the same, that would be very helpful information too.  Please give compative capabilities as it relates to parallel book columns.
    BTW, another really crucial feature is being able to manually set a FIXED line height in each column -- not in point size, like InDesign does (that does not work for precise alignment) -- I should be able to specify the line height in each column in decimals of an inch.  Which one can do this?
    Your help on these specific questions is much appreciated.  Please no discussion of FM 9.  I will not be getting that version.  Thanks

    Mike --
    That weird work-around is indecipherable to me (column less than a character width??) -- would you care to explain it in the context of this thread?
    I noticed that Arnis has already explained the reason for using a tiny frame in each thread to carry the flow across pages where you don't want to display that content.
    The reason Jay posted that is because he was on my question in InDesign, realized the serious failing of InDesign to handle a 2-page spread of parallel columns, and obviously wanted to see if FM could do it.  He did a book in FM with only 2 columns, hence the "entrenched" concept of even-to-odd page flow worked fine for him.
    You know, I have personally read 100+ books with 4 parallel texts like I am describing, and I am sure there are thousands of ones I haven't read with a similar layout.  It takes scarcely 2 seconds to realize, looking at the 2 page spread, that even page columns MUST wrap to even page columns, and odd to odd.  It's not an "unusual, special" request, it is a NECESSARY REQUIREMENT of 4 parallel columns spread across facing pages.  Surely you can see that?  But it seems that Adobe developers either never read any scholarly texts, or they just don't understand parallel texts -- period.
    Have you contacted the folks who created the books you're referring to, to learn what tools they used for the books? Just seeing the final print version, or even the PDF, can't reveal the underlying construction.
    Maybe the truth came out in that thread.  Framemaker, as it was originally conceived by the original developers, DID allow correct page flow for parallel columns -- but once Adobe got it, they killed that ability, dumbing it down to InDesign's level, which cannot do it.  Peter so much as admitted to that fact on that thread, that somewhere in the versions, this feature was killed.  Which confirms the above paragraph.
    Winfried Ring responded to my question about the feature not working in later FrameMaker releases, in that other thread, that the technique still works in later FrameMaker releases. The key, Winfried pointed out, is to begin the document with one body page, regardless of whether it's a single-page or facing-page layout. This keeps FrameMaker from getting confused about where the flows should go on the new pages it creates as any of the flows grows to the point that it creates a new page.
    I think you're trying to imagine how these techniques will work, rather than trying them out hands-on. I've done that myself; it's a good learning style for some things, but in this particular case, you need the empirical experience of seeing how the software's built-in mechanisms behave. Until and unless you do it and gain the experience, you can't imagine, project, empathize, conjure, or visualize how these things work. You do have a clear vision of what you want for the end result, however.
    In FrameMaker, as in InDesign, as in PageMaker, as in QuarkXpress, you draw text frames on document pages, or on master pages, using a text frame tool. It's named differently in each application.
    The tools are for users to apply their vision and creativity, so if you need a certain kind of layout, you need to lay it out yourself. If your particular layout were common, there would very likely be at least one template for available in each professional publishing tool's community.
    Why should I even consider FM 9 ??  Adobe wants $1000 bucks for it -- they brag on its "improved features for book production".  What a laugh!  They can't even conceive of scholarly comparative books across a HUGE gamut of subject areas -- so why should I consider it ??  I'd love for someone to tell me: "YES !!  I am proud to announce that FrameMaker can do this natively out of the box !! "  But I don't see it coming, do you?
    Professional tools cost huge money to develop. If you use them professionally, your work should bring in the revenue to pay for the tools.
    As has been said by many posters on many threads in regards to most software, especially the professional tools, it's very unlikely that you'll find a legitimate copy of a past version for sale. The older the version, the less likely there will be a legit copy on some dealer's shelf that pops up, and is put on eBay for a song. It's illegal to sell old versions that one uses to upgrade to a new version. You'll not be able to register the license; in recent versions of Adobe products, you won't be able to use the software at all after the trial period expires, without a valid license.
    Using a license cracking tool is also illegal.
    It sounds as if  your hardware and Windows version limitations are constraining your software choices. It's a tough set of choices.
    Oh, BTW, here's a link to a PDF of a FrameMaker example of what I think you're talking about:
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/363247/fm%207X7%204-parallel%20flows%20across%20same-side%20pages. recover.pdf
    EDIT:
    In the PDF, the small fragments of text are the "pass-through" threaded frames that Arnis described. They're larger than a single character, so you can see the text flow through; in real use, they should be teensy.
    /EDIT
    It's trickier in InDesign because it's built-in ability to create new pages as stories grow is trick to accomplish the same behavior. The In-Tools plugin that was mentioned can do this.
    If you're persnickety about typographic control, InDesign is the better tool. FrameMaker isn't a slouch, it's just that InDesign's been bred for the task.
    Regarding lining up the text across columns, InDesign and FrameMaker both can control baseline alignment. You'll need to try out both tools to decide which works the way you need.

  • Bigger difference between original and corrected footage than in Fcp?

    I have tried asking this on the color forum, but have been very unsuccessful, maybe someone here knows why?
    Why is it that when Im color correcting In COLOR and enable and disable the grading I get a bigger difference between the original and corrected footage than when I send it back to final cut and compare the result of the cc with the original footage.
    In Final cut sometimes it looks almost the same as the original but when Im in Color the difference is always bigger?
    When I send it back to FCP its like I get 80 or 85% percent of what I had in color.
    Any ideas???

    Maybe if you had read what I wrote to you you would have noticed me saying that this happens independent of infrastructure. I tried several different set ups it happens in all of them
    Im telling you its not the setup but here goes, the last one I worked on was a mac pro, inked through Fiber Jet SAN with 14TB of usable storage. fully integrated control surface giving DaVinci type ease of operation and control of multiple parameters simultaneously.
    latest eCinema 23" LCD HD Reference Monitor.
    Again i tried different configurations (Blackmagic, AJA,) and different monitors
    Funny thing I have the same exact problem on my simple Macbook Pro.
    I first thought set up, but it wasent
    I tought it could be the codecs but it wasent. (or maybe it is the xd cam footage)
    Now Im wondering if these two softwares manage color and the color space in a different way?

  • What is the difference between iMac and Mac pro?

    I want to buy an iMac but have saw the mac pro.  What is the difference?  Do you need an iMac to get a mac pro or does it come with a monitor?

    Yes, exactly as Kappy has stated.
    The iMac is an "all-in-one" computer similar to an HP Envy, or HP Touchsmart.
    HP Envy Here: http://tinyurl.com/bb-hp-envy
    HP Touchsmart Here: http://tinyurl.com/bb-hp-touchsmart
    These are an "all-in-one" machine, where the CPU (central processing unit), mainboard, and graphics display adapter are all embedded onto one board, and it is built-in to the monitor display case.
    So you just have what looks like a "thicker" monitor on your desk and your keyboard connects to this "all-in-one" computer.  (and actually the newest 2012 iMacs are not really that "thick" at all, and it does look pretty nice/thin/sleek).
    The disadvantage to an "all-in-one" is that it's not easily upgradeable.  You can't change out the graphics cards, or install new PCIe expansion cards (faster network cards, RAID adapter, etc.), can't add extra internal hard drives (i.e. 4 internal hard drives), etc.
    The Mac Pro is a standalone computer.  It requires an additional monitor/display.  The advantage of having a Mac Pro is that it is upgradeable (you can get more powerful graphics cards in the future if you need better 3D rendering power) and it has far more memory slots, so it can be expandeable to I believe 128GB of RAM (whereas I believe the iMac might be 32GB of ram?)
    iMac memory expansion here:  http://www.apple.com/why-mac/compare/
    Mac Pro Memory expansion here:  http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Mac-Pro-Memory#1333-memory
    Also the iMac is a much thinner device, and you can't separate the display from the CPU (they are an "all-in-one" device) so you can't upgrade or change the primary display, but you can add a second display).
    With the Mac Pro, you can add additional graphics cards, and you can power up to twelve displays (if you wish).  You also have a much more powerful processor on the Mac Pro (one quad-core, or up to two 6-Core Intel Xeon processors).  So the Mac Pro a much more powerful machine.
    The iMac is just a nice cute/thin desktop display (all-in-one), but with a quad-core processor it's still a fairly fast/decent machine.
    If you are doing heavy 3D graphics rendering or gaming, or graphics design (3D CAD, etc.) then I would probably go with something more powerful like a Mac Pro, since you can get better graphics cards, and the Mac Pro will run much cooler (as you're trying to do massive rendering).
    > Do you need an iMac to get a mac pro or does it come with a monitor?
    No, you don't need an iMac for a Mac Pro (they are two separate and different computers), but yes you do need an external monitor display if you buy a Mac Pro.
    Any 1920x1080p monitor/display with an HDMI input will be sufficient for using with a Mac Pro.

  • Difference between MIGo and MIRO for GR IR clearing

    Hi all,
    I hav created one PO in foreign currency for 10 items. GR is happening for all 10 lines with rate say Rs 50. Now when i am doing MIRO with same rate i.e. Rs 50, 8 materials are getting posted correctly. But for 2 materials there is inventory posting for fixed amount (in local currency) irrespective of quantty.this case amount in foreign currency is same but dieefernce for GR/IR account is in local currency.
    When line items analysed it was observed that fo these 2 materials exchange rate picked up is different than header exchange rate. the difference in exchange rate is posted to stock account.
    In short system icking differen xchange rate for different line items for one invoice ( MIRO is happening against only one invoice)
    Can any one please explai this phenomena and any solution for this?
    thanks

    When you do aut. clearing and the exchange rates account is set up it will clear the GR/IR account.
    There is no reason to change exchange rates

  • Big differences between PAYG and PM charges to call abroad using add-on?

    For PAYG customers, it seems that the charges to call EU numbers are much lower than for Pay Monthly custiomers. For example, the per minute charge to call a landline in France is 2p or a mobile is 5p on PAYG. On PM it's 5p (landline)  or 15p (mobile). Likewise texts are 10p vs 18p I would have thought that if there were any differences, PM would be cheaper. Or have I missed something? See PLAN PRICE GUIDES - non-standard charges for PAYG and PM

    Hi 
    The charges vary depending on whether you are on EE, T-Mobile or Orange.
