If your info is correct you need to first buy Snow Leopard from the Apple on-line store ($20) install and update to 10.6.8 and then buy Lion from the App Store for $20.

  • Sharpness issues with my canon. Not sure which lens would be best for video.

    I have several lenses and I use the tamron 17-50.  My issue is that even though I do use manual focus, I don't seem
    to get a very clear picture even with stills.   I even went inside canon to adjust the forcus and I am getting the same results.  I have 2 sony HDV FX7 that gives sharper  videos.  I would of thought Canon would of beat that!  Anyway, I am amature and still need to learn.  I have seen other videos that are so clear,  I really want to learn what I am doing wrong.
    Canon 7d, Canon 50d, 2 sony FX7.

    I can’t speak to video, but obviously that camera is capable of producing clear sharp images.  It’s hard to nail down the issue without seeing images and knowing your setup, but here’s a couple of possibilities:
    A bad lens: it’s possible it just won’t lock on tact sharpness.  Do your other lenses have this issue? 
    Microadjustment: A lot of lenses are off focus by just a little bit.  But this is really only an issue at large apertures.  You can set the microfocus on your camera for each lens.  I’m assuming you just sent your camera to Canon, not the lens and camera together? 
    Camera Technique: are you using slow shutter speeds?  Maybe it’s camera shake.
    Apertures:  Are you using apertures at the extreme ends of the scale?  Wide open will have a thin depth of field, so only a small portion of the picture will be sharp.  Conversely, if you stop down too much then diffraction will soften the entire image.
    Filters: do you have any filters on the lens?  Cheap filters can soften images.
    Also: are you shooting raw or jpg for stills? What program are you using for post-processing?

  • Which Mac Mini is best for Editing in Final Cut Pro X i5 or i7 ?

    Lets see if i buy mac mini i5 with 16gb ram and a ssd drive,  Will it work better than mac mini i7 with 16gb ram but without ssd drive ?
    So guys plzz suggest me the best mac specs for video editing
    Thanks in advance

    Your budget?
    Take a look at this: http://www.barefeats.com/minivmp.html
    The 2012 Quad-Core i7 Mac mini is a real contender when it comes to CPU power compared to our examples of a Quad-Core Mac Pro and Quad-Core iMac. We plan to add some other examples of Quad-Core desktop Macs (including a faster Mac mini) to these graphs in the days ahead but the point is made.
    However, the GPU in the 2012 Quad-Core i7 Mac mini is weak in comparison to the Mac Pro (and iMac) as you can see from the "Heaven" graph.
    That's going to affect its ability to handle advanced Pro Apps that make use of the GPU for certain types of effect rendering.
    These apps include Apple's Final Cut Pro and Motion as well as Adobe's Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and After Effects.
    The Mac mini's Intel HD 4000 GPU will also hamstring hard-core gamers.
    The Mac mini is also weak in support of OpenCL as you can see from the "LuxMark" graph.
    It is forced to render the model using only CPU while the iMac and Mac Pro GPUs are able to render the model.
    Why does this matter? Because apps like Final Cut Pro, Motion, and Photoshop use OpenCL acceleration for rendering certain effects.

    Even a Mac Pro (refurbished special 4-core 2.8 is $1819 and can be upgraded to more RAM, 4x4TB w/o going into Thunderbolt storage) and have multiple SSDs as the choice or need arises.)
    Fusion drive + Thunderbolt but I think you are asking too much out of the mini. It is fine for a lot of uses.

  • Can anyone recommend a portable USB 3.0 drive with hardware encryption, compatible with OSX and Windows 7.  I need it for my MacBook Pro 13", 2012, running Mountain Lion

    Can anyone recommend a portable USB 3.0 drive with hardware encryption, compatible with OSX Mountain Lion and Windows 7.  I need it for my MacBook Pro 13”, 2012, running Mountain Lion & Windows 7 Ultimate - BootCamp.  I’ve heard that the Buffalo MiniStation Encryption does not work with OSX, is that true..?  I'd like it to work with both operating systems, using the built in hardware encryption.  Thanks

  • Looking to purchase a new 13" MacBook Pro with 512GB SSD memory and 8GB ram.  Main purpose is to run Final Cut Prowithout being at my desk.  Is there's need to upgrade to the 16GB to make Final Cut Prorun more smoothly?

    I was planning on buying a new 13 inch MacBook Pro with 512 GB memory and 8GB RAM. The main purpose for this purchase Is to be able to run Final Cut Pro anywhere I want to. Should I upgrade to 16 GB of RAM with the added expense and wait time or is that overkill?

    8GB should be plenty  .  .  .  though as with most things in life, it all depends on exactly what you are doing. If you intend to edit long, highly complex projects loaded with effects and multicam clips you can't get enough RAM.
    For over 3 years, I and many others, have been  using 4GB with no problems.

  • Can i use my mini Mbox 2 with logic pro 9 on iMac os x lion?

    Can i use my mini Mbox 2 with logic pro 9 on iMac os x lion?

    Hi there,
    Did you find out anything more in regard to this?
    I have been using Pro Tools 8 with the MBox 2 connected to my iMac operating Leopard. It worked a treat for nearly four years.
    However the hardrive has just been replaced on the iMac which now has Snowleopard.  I don't want to have to update to Lion and then fork out £500 for Pro Tools 10. 
    I would be content to get Logic Pro 9 if I can attach the MBox 2 to it.
    Your advice would be appreciated

  • Can I use my MBox interface with the latest version of Logic Pro X?

    Can I use my Mbox interface with the latest version of Logic ProX?

    If your Mbox has a Core Audio driver compatible with your version of OSX, then most likely, yes.

  • Can I use digi 003 console with logic pro 10 ???

    I want to work with logic pro 10 and I don't know if it work with my digi 003 console
    Please help me

    Hi again Bill,
    Something very strange has happened this morning. I was using Logic and thought 'I'll just plug in the TASCAM again to see if anything happens' and it just worked straight away. This is most peculiar as I didn't do or press anything to make it work. Yesterday when I was trying to get it to work, I closed the program and restarted the computer several times are making adjustmemnts but it just wasn't working at all. It seems a good night sleep has gievn it time to think things through lol.

  • Is MBOX compatible with logic pro?

    I was offered to buy an MBOX at a very reasonable price, and I have been looking into getting a preamp. Is the Mbox compatible with Logic express or just with pro tools? How would I benefit from this hardware?

    Hi,
    I can't speak for the mbox1. But I own an mbox2 pro, which is a GREAT box.
    It's also highly acclaimed by folks who have put it to more scrutiny than me.
    Being made by Digidesign is, IMO, a quality mark in itself. Say what you want about ProTools etc. (I prefer Logic by far), but hi-def audio is what they know.
    I just had to download and install Digidesign's CoreAudio drivers to make it work properly - no prob.
    It's not poor just because it's been on the market a few years. But whether you should get the (oldish) mbox1 or get something newer, is up to you
    Just my $0.02

  • I have an Apple MacBook Pro with 2 USB ports and a MiniDisplay Port. I also have an HDTV with a HDMI port. How can I use the TV as a display without any tethering wires between my computer and the TV?

    I have an Apple MacBook Pro with 2 USB ports and a MiniDisplay Port. I also have an HDTV with a HDMI port. How can I use the TV as a display without any tethering wires between my computer and the TV? I have a MiniDisplay Port to VGA adapter, but there are two issues with it: The new display doesn't have a VGA port, and even if it did, I wouldn't want to have my mac constantly attached to the display by a cable. I was looking for a way to use the TV as a display without any wires. Is there some type of bluetooth setup I could use? Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

    As I wrote above, I think you should look into the Apple TV yourself. The best place to find information about what it can and can't do and to ask your own specific questions is probably in the Apple TV forum, here:

  • I am running a MacBook Pro with 10.7.5 and I downloaded the OS X 10.10.2 Update Combo, however when I try and open the package the error message "This volume is used for TimeMachine-backups". Which is not true. I´m using TimeCapsule.

    I am running a MacBook Pro with 10.7.5 and I downloaded the OS X 10.10.2 Update Combo.
    When I try and open the package after accepting the lincence-agreement and upon choosing the install-volume the error message appears: "This volume is used for TimeMachine-backups".
    Which is not true. I´m using a timecapsule for backups.
    How can I proceed?

    I am using a MacBook Pro (2010) with 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5, 4GB, 1067 MHz, DDR3, Startvolume Macintosh HD.
    After downloading the package and starting upgrading it asks acceptance of the license-agreement. After that it asks for the volume were to install. And when I click on the Startvolume Macintosh HD (which is the only available on the machine) it says: "The volume is already being used for Time Machine-Backups".
    It doesn´t offer to skip that point or to reconfigure the Time Machine settings.
    The point is that my Time machine is not and has never used the Mac HD for Backups. In the past I have used an external drive and since 05/2014 I am using a Time Capsule which is appropriately addressed in the Time Machine settings.

  • Which external hard drive is best for the MacBook Pro? Can I use the SuperDrive?

    I am looking to buy a new external hard drive for my new MacBook Pro and just want the best one for this laptop. Can i use the SuperDrive?  It looks like the SuperDrive is for the MacBook Air but wasn't sure if it could be used with the Pro as well.

    Apple does not make external harddrives, except maybe the TimeCapsule which is Router/HD combo for use with the TimeMachine software.

    There are many to choose from, and you will I sure get much advise across the board.
    I would stay away from WesternDigital.
    Othere then that OWC are a dependable supplier.
    I am using a 1TB/QuadInterface/DiskGo/ by Edge  they had a very sweet back to school discount promo.
    Look around for your "sleek and thin in design" and a good deal as they all go on sale periodicly.
    Think along the lines of USB 3, Thunderbolt if your machine supports it or at a minimum FireWire800.

    Hi. I have a MacBook Pro with OS10.6.8 and cannot get internet pages to load on my WiFi network at home. My iMac, iPhone and iPad all work on this network.  It is connected to the net as dropbox registers a connection and so does skype.

Can anyone suggets how I can fix it, as the MBP appears to be fine, its updated with all the latest versions of software and the WiFi network is also fine....just not with my MBP??
