Can you still work on laptop while backing up

can you still work on laptop while backing up?

Yes.. but if you are backing up over wireless and also using wireless for internet it might be slow.. it is always faster to do the first backup using ethernet.. but the normal TM backups every hour are generally very small and you will hardly notice if at all.

Can you still work when the internet goes down?

Since internet service in this country is pretty unreliable, will that make it difficult to get work done when internet is down? Where I live, high speed internet isn't even available, so will I even be able to use Photoshop at all? Should I just find an alternative app?

Your Creative Cloud desktop applications (such as Photoshop and Illustrator) are installed directly on your computer, so you won't need an ongoing Internet connection to use them on a daily basis.
You will need to be online when you install and license your software. If you have an annual membership, you'll be asked to connect to the web to validate your software licenses every 30 days.

FCP to Compressor (can I still work in FCP will export is happening)?

This may be a dumb question. Usually I export from FCP to a master ProRes, THEN bring the ProRes into Compressor to make various formats. And I know I can continue working in FCP while this is happening.
I want to short circuit that process on this job, go straight out of FCP to Compressor. Which works fine. I'm wondering, once I've started the batch process in Compressor, can I be working with FCP while it is exporting THROUGH Compressor?
Or am I going to crash the whole process?
All ears,
Ben

Please excuse typo in question:

S'cuse me.

Can you still purchase videos with itunes 6??

Like everyone else I downloaded itunes7, at first I got all error messages, and missing files. I spent 3 hrs. on the phone with Apple technicians and they had me download itunes7 and quicktime separately. Now I can at least open itunes, but that is about it. Itunes played audio but no video, but I went in and disabled the 3D from my video, now the videos play but are fuzzy and freeze. I have a 60GB ipod which I am afraid to sync with my computer. Does that mean if connect my ipod to my computer for synching, that will screw up my ipod?? I tried to uninstall itunes7 and its components and load the itunes cd that came with my ipod itunes 6.01 but it wouldn't work. In my itunes library it doesn't list videos anymore. Only TV shows, music and podcasts? Where did the video listing go? My 60GB ipod was recently purchased with an extended warranty, do you think if I return it and purchase a 80GB with the itunes cd and install that, it might work better? Can you still purchase videos if I manage to somehow get back itunes6?? The Apple technician said they would get back to me but of course they haven't. One last thing, I can finally connect to the itunes store but when I preview a video it freezes.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
While I haven't tried, I would image the answer is no.
Usually when iPods are released with a new iTunes version, they aren't made to be/are made not to be compatible with previous iTunes versions.
It may work, but I can't be sure either way (someone else may have tested this).
In the past, even if iTunes updated the iPod, there tended to be problems syncing.

Can you still sort songs by popularity, name, etc.

Can you still sort songs by popularity, name, etc.? It does not appear as thought these options are still available.

Hi Jim,
I tried both things suggested and neither worked. This just happened after updating.
Like thousands of others, I got an error message MSVCR80, and had to delete all Apple programs from my desktop and re-load iTunes. Since updating, nothing iTunes related has operated properly on my iPad, or Desktop.
Very frustrating. A service request to Apple results in a charge for service. Very unfair since it is their own update that is causing the issues.
Thanks for the suggestions.

I dropped my macbook pro 17" from about 4 feet from my shelf onto a hard floor and it dinged the corner pretty bad, but it still works OK. a year back also it fell of from 1ft height but that time there was not any dent.

I dropped my macbook pro 17" from about 4 feet from my shelf onto a hard floor and it dinged the corner pretty bad, but it still works OK. a year back also it fell of from 1ft height but that time there was not any dent. my worry is will it give any prop in future or its just a cosmetic issue but in performance it wont give any problems. it happened an hr back & i am very upset for this misshandling.

I dropped a MBP and dented that same corner, though it wasn't one of the unibody MBPs:
It worked flawlessly for a month, then suddenly died. I put it to sleep one day, then 5 minutes later remembered something I had forgotten to do, opened it back up... and nothing. It never worked again. Repairs would have been well over $1,000, and would not have been covered by the warranty or by AppleCare (if I had bought it). I opted to just buy a new Mac instead.
Now, just because that happened to me does not mean that's what will happen to you. However, you do need to prepare yourself for that possibility.

You can ONLY buy from the itunes store of your country of residence ( proven by the valid billing address on your credit card) and ONLY while inside the borders of that country.

Can you still open URL's within QuickTime and Lion ? the URL opening seems to have gone.
I'm running Lion now and just noticed

It is a sample file posted yesterday fixing a Lion playback problem (Lion/QT X v10.1 doesn't seem to like having 2 active MP3 audio tracks present) which I just tested and is playing for me right now.

Have an original iPhone 3G. Can you still sync iTunes (10.6) and Contacts after Lion install?

Have an original iPhone 3G. Can you still sync iTunes (10.6) and Contacts after Lion install?

An older iTunes will not open the library once used by a newer version.
iTunes 10.6.3 will work with iOS6 as long as the hardware doesn't post-date the release of 10.7 Use iTunes 10.6.3 on both machines.

Can you still order photo books if you're running iPhoto '09?

I have an older MacBook and I'm running Snow Leopard and iPhoto '09. (I was thinking of upgrading to iPhoto '11 but it's no longer available for Snow Leopard in the App store. Don't really want to buy the CD version when I don't use any of the other apps.)
I'd like to create some iPhoto books as gifts but I don't want to spend a lot of time on them if they won't work with iPhoto '09. Can you still order them from the old version of iPhoto?

yes - Also with iPhoto '08

Can you still access Windows partition with open firmware password installed?

Can you still access Windows partition with open firmware password installed? If so, do you still use the Option key upon restart?

I don't use Bootcamp. However, I do know that with a firmware password, pressing the option key at startup will cause the password entry screen to come up; after entering the password, you will get the boot device choice screen.
So, if Bootcamp partitions normally show up on that screen then it should work just fine, or so I'd imagine.

Can you still use Home Sharing?

     Can you still use Home Sharing?    I have a Mac Mini (10.6.3) a Ipad (3rd Gen.) and a 3rd Gen. Apple TV. All on the same home network and router. All three have Home Sharing turned on. All with the same account and all with the same password but they don't see each other. Since we're talking about three devices that don't see each other, I figure it must be something in the way I have it setup or Apple did away with the function.
     Can anyone point me in the right direction or shed some light on this problem.
     Thanks
          Ron   (hmbgeno)

Well I can tell you that Apple did not do away with it because I am still using home sharing. Maybe you should go through this support article.

Can you still Buy CS3 Illustrator

Can you still buy CS3 Illustrator ??? If so does anyone have a recommended site to buy it from??
For those who upgraded from CS2 to CS3 did you see any advantage??
I am looking to upgrade in hopes of correcting several software errors.

No officialy you cant buy CS3 annymore.
But you still can buy CS4 i think and than you have CS5 for free.
And yes CS3, 4 and 5 are way better than CS2. CS2 was the worst CS version there was even CS1 was better than CS2.
