Does iMovie 6 run on iBook G4?

Hello Discussioners,
I have been thinking about upgrading my system to Tiger and installing iMovie 6. Going through the system requirements, I saw that iMovie themes require Quartz Extreme. According to Apple these graphic cards support QE: Any AGP-based ATI RADEON GPU, with 16 MB VRAM or better (this would include my ATI Mobility Radeon 9200)
On the other hand Core Image needs at least a Radeon Mobility 9700 (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301347).
I have read a couple of posts regarding problems/inability to use the new themes in iMovie 6 and am trying to make sure my iBook meets the requirements, but am really unable to find conclusive info (and the themes are really the only thing I would get iMovie 6 for)
Specs: iBook G4, 1.25Ghz, 512 RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon 9200.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated - especially those of people who run iMovie 6 successfully on an iBook G4
thanks in advance

Now I am rather confused...
This is what graphics says in the System Profiler:
NVIDIA GeForce2 MX:
Chipset Model: GeForce2 MX
Type: Display
Bus: AGP
VRAM (Total): 32 MB
Vendor: nVIDIA (0x10de)
Device ID: 0x0110
Revision ID: 0x00b2
ROM Revision: 1057.008
Displays:
iMac:
Display Type: LCD
Resolution: 1024 x 768
Depth: 32-bit Color
Built-In: Yes
Core Image: Not Supported
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off
Online: Yes
Quartz Extreme: Supported
Yet, when I try to open iMovie, it gives me the error about how my mac may not have the proper graphics card...
Silly me-I have believed it and assumed that I couldn't do it.
Now mind you-I forgot my Video camera at work, but I did make a complete iMovie with stills, themes, audio and transitions. Even applied a video FX to some of the photos!
Long story short...I have no idea and I thank you for making me try this, mish!

Does leopard run on ibook g4

hi what does an ibook g4 need to run osx leopard

Hi Ronda,
I managed to get hold of Kappy to thank him for his input into my problem and I am glad to say I have now found you. Look, when you don't often visit "Communities" it's not always easy picking up where you left off and I have found getting here somewhat circular (me no doubt!) . So many thanks.
I think Communities support is great. I used to frequent Communities, but that was quite a while back now, but I find it as good now as ever.
On the topic of iBook and Leopard, the computer we were discussing re discussing changing the name of the Home folder, that was and is an iBook G4, (2005/6). It came to me when I bought it running Leopard and from what I gathered from the seller was that the "discs" had been lost and they were OS X 10.5.x discs. I guess I took it for granted that they came with the computer when he bought it new.
The previous owner no doubt purchased "upgrade" discs to run Leopard.
The big issue is can iBook run Leopard? The answer is yes if the iBook is a G4 2005. The G4 2004 won't do.
Here is a quote from EveryMac.com
< http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/ibook/stats/ibook_g4_1.33_12.html >:
The "Mid-2005" iBook G4 models use the same external housings as the earlier iBook G4 models, but otherwise these systems are quite different. When compared to the iBook G4/1.2 12-Inch (Late 2004) that it replaced, the iBook G4/1.33 12-Inch (Mid-2005) has a faster processor, twice the amount and faster RAM (512 MB compared to 256 MB of onboard memory), superior graphics, a larger hard drive (40 GB compared to 30 GB), and built-in Bluetooth 2.0+EDR as well as AirPort Extreme (802.11g).
What follows thereafter is an exhaustive layout of the iBook G4 2005-2006 specs. If you are interested in iBooks at least pay EveryMac a visit.
By the way Ronda, I stand corrected, you are right (dare I say as always?), the iBook G4 came pre-installed with Tiger not Leopard, namely: Mac OS X 10.4.2 (8D37).
I understand, however, the purchaser would be told right then on the spot that she or he could get Leopard install discs for that particular iBook G4 2005, if they so wished. If you bought online and wanted an upgrade they would upgrade the OS, memory, whatever. But the standard pre install (as opposed to customized) is as you have so correctly stated.
Wikipedia cites Apple < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_Leopard > for the specs required for running Leopard:
Apple states the following basic Leopard system requirements, although, for some specific applications and actions (such as iChat backdrops) an Intel processor is required:[52]
Processor must be any Intel, PowerPC G5 or G4 (867 MHz and faster)
DVD drive (for installation of the operating system)
At least 512 MB of RAM (additional RAM (1 GB) is recommended for development purposes)
At least 9 GB of disk space available.
Not much left to discuss, I would say. :- )
Cheers,
Gareth

IBook does not run on battery

My Ibook does not run on battery when it reaches 48%. It just shutsdown with no warnings. I have to connect the AC adapter to work if i disconnect it the ibook just shuts down. I have to waut until it reaches 100% and then i take the AC adapter. I book shuts down and after i turn it on with out the AC and it stays running on bat until the 48%. Then i have to go through everything again.

Till now my battery has been working perfectly. The machine is about 1 year old and I use it heavily for my work. I prefer to unplug my battery when it's full, and use it till it go's to sleep before plugging it in again. This results in a very high Cycle count (453) but a still perfectly working battery (98% according to CoconutBattery), I can use the machine for about 4 hours on a full battery.
The amperage would be 0 since your battery is not in a charge cycle.
Part of your problem could honestly be your cycle count and method of caring for your battery. If you check some of the research about Li_ion batteries this is the worse way to use it. Li-Ion batteries work best with little charges. Deep cycling Li-Ion can kill the cells. There is no good reason to charge the battery and then use it as you have been doing. This just kills your battery for no reason. The MacBook is designed to cut the charge off when the battery is full and it does not hurt the battery to lie idle like this. The method you're using can prematurely kill your battery.
Either the battery has a problem that is not showing on you readings or the battery circuit is fried. Do you know someone that has a MacBook or live near an Apple store so you can test your battery on a known good MacBook. Or you could try one of their batteries in it.

Why does iMovie quit unexpectedly when I try to share in iDVD?

Why does iMovie quit unexpectedly when I try to share in iDVD?

I don't know why it happens, but if you read messages around the iMovie Discussion Group it seems to happen to a lot of people. The easiest way around this is to Share to Media Browser instead of Share to iDVD directly. The Media Browser is a 'holding area' for video you want to use in other iLife Apps (including GarageBand and iDVD). When you Share to Media Browser, choose the Large size. Then let it run until it finishes. Quit iMovie.
Open iDVD. Create a New Project, Select a Theme. Then click on the Media Button. Click on the Movies button below the Media Browser. Your project will now appear under the iMovie star icon just drag that project into the iDVD project window. This should bypass the problem you were having by sharing Directly to iDVD.

Does imovie 3 come free with OS 10.3 Panther?

Hello,
Does imovie 3 come free with OS 10.3 Panther? If not, where could I buy a retail version of imovie 3? I might also consider imove 4, ilife 3 or 4 or perhaps imove2.
I am looking for a version of imovie that will run on my blue and white G3. I am aware there might me some limitations but I am not sure at this point.
Thanks
Mike

Adobe Creative Cloud - has anybody had any luck running Adobe CC on a new mac mini? Does it run slow for Photoshop?

Adobe Creative Cloud - has anybody had any luck running Adobe CC on a new mac mini? Does it run slow for Photoshop?

Adobe CC applications are very large and the base Mac mini isn't a good choice because it has only 4GB of RAM and has a slow standard hard drive. To get the most out of ACC you should upgrade the mini to at least 8GB. I'd also choose an SSD or Fusion drive for better performance.

REPORT DOES NOT RUN CORRECTLY , URGENT PLEASE HELP

Hi,
I am trying to run a report from visul basic screen, but it does not run correctly. Here is how I am running the report. There is a screen developed in VB This screen prompts the user for user id and password. Once it gets that, it connects to the oracle database and pulls out a column from a table. And passes that value as a parameter to the report. Now I am calling the the report for each individual value . There are 21 value being pulled out of the database and it invokes the report 21 times. So there are 21 report engines gets started. Is there a better way to do that ? Secondly when I pass the parameter , some parameters does not pass correctly I guess , because its not generating any out put . Like out of 21 may be 10 or 11 reports gets generated correctly but rest of the reports are blank. I debug the screen i saw that the parameter value is correct, everything seems good. But still the reports are comming blank. Any Idea why it is so ? The command line that i am using in VB screen is
Shell "C:\progra~1\ora95_2\bin\rwrun60.exe P:\Business_Analysis_&_Reporting_Tool\Test_REPORT_Templates\STORE_TYPES\Baby_Distribution_Report.Rdf USERID=" & UID & "/" & PWD & "@cposp201 DESFORMAT=PDF DESTYPE=FILE DESNAME=" & txtPath.Text & Replace(strName, " ", "_") & ".PDF BRND='" & adoRecBrand!Brand & "' PRINTJOB=NO PARAMFORM=NO"
In the above command " adoRecBrand!Brand " is the parameter thats being passed. This is actually a recordset and brand is the column in it. When I debug the screen , I see the value also there. But the report comes out blank. Please help. This is urgent.
Thanks
Feroz

The way you call reports is not scalable. If you have 100 records come back from database, you would end up launch 100 engines at the same times, which probably will blow up your machine. You should use oracle reports server to do that. You can either use rwcli60 to submit the job to reports server, or invoke rwcgi60 from URL.
I am afraid some of reports engine failed to start and you get nothing back in your case.
After switch to use reports server achitecture, if you still see some report is blank in your application, then you can run that report with that special set of parameters manually and see if any problem with the report itself.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

ICal does not run one event that has a Applescript attached to it. 24u?

I have a number of reoccurring events in iCal that run a Applescript. Tow of them refuses to run. I have tried it as a Applescript and saved it as a run only and neither works (the script run fine if I test them by hand).
so I thought I have a look in the log and found this 24u information.
can anybody help out here? I am not sure why it appears, if it is good or bad, how to fix it and if it is at all realted to my problem. Other scripts seem to run well, it is this one and an other one that do not get activated by iCall.
They run on a MM running 10.6.8, iCall 4.0.4 (1395.7)
Thanks.

Hi,
It looks like the version of 24U's Appearance OSAX you have installed does not run on Lion.
I would contact the developer to see if they have a version that does yet. See http://www.24usoftware.com/AppearanceOSAX
Alternatively you could look to see if the Applescript really needs to use it.
Best wishes
John M
Edit: If you are running Snow Leopard, I think you may need to make the application "iCal Helper" (which you'll find in iCal's application package) run as 32 bit. I'd also suggest you check this with 24U.

the you will get the error description also use try catch wherever necessary
Alternatively you can use

My Firefox version is 13.0.1, I use Windows Seven 64-bit, when I click on Firefox, but the program does not run! But Firefox is seen in the list of Windows processes, while Firefox does not run.
I manually deleted Firefox from the list once I have Windows processing.
And when I clicked on Firefox, Firefox will open quickly and easily.
Firefox process in Windows Processes names list called "firefox.exe * 32" is.
Please try to solve my problem, my problem is how to solve?

Hi, are you saying that you start Firefox and it stalls -- you can see it in the Task Manager but it never displays -- but if you kill that process and start Firefox again it starts up properly that second time?
If you look at the statistics available in the Task Manager's processes tab such as bytes read or other bytes, can you see whether Firefox is doing anything at all? ''Note: You might need to add columns if your Processes tab isn't set up to display statistics. You can do that from the View menu.''
You might already have seen these troubleshooting articles. If not, does anything here help:

Does iMovie 08 actually work at all?

Long story short, I was trying to make a dvd of some old movies of our family for my daughter's upcoming wedding. The movies are in .mpg format. iMovie won't import them as .mpg. After reading some articles and forum posts I googled, I've used MPEG Streamclip to convert them to DV (which iMovie wouldn't import) and to .mov (again, which iMovie wouldn't import) and so I'm stuck. So, does iMovie actually do anything at all besides suck up space on my drive? If so, you couldn't prove it by me.
<Edited out by the Hosts>

MPEG Streamline has a mass of options to choose from when converting video formats - which unless you have some pointers, can produce some very ******* language.
So here are a few snippets of information I've learned from a few other users and claim no credit for the advice, well except to say thank you to the original posters for their help and assistance.
So here goes...
In order for you to be able to import your DVD footage into iMovie 08 you need to change the format of the video files.
I use MPEG Streamclip which is a free download from http://www.squared5.com/ to convert the video.
Once you have downloaded the software and installed it, pop your DVD into your iMac, open up Streamclip, then click FILE > OPEN DVD > Select the DVD from the Devices. You should see VIDEO_TS but ignore this, simply click on SELECT, then select from the drop-down list which track on your DVD you wish to open and click on Select.
After a few seconds the video should open in a new window. If you see 'Warning, the stream may have timecode breaks', click 'FIX NOW', the next page opens, make sure that 'DO NOT SKIP ANY FRAME' is ticked and click 'PROCEED'.
Wait until the video is processed and the opened page shows the video.
Now click on FILE > EXPORT TO QUICKTIME, select compression 'APPLE DV - PAL' from the dropdown menu, and move the quality bar to 100%. Click on 'Make movie'.
From the next page rename the video footage to something more memorable, and save it to th Desktop or somewhere else NOT the DVD which it defaults to - if you forget it will fail!!!
You can now import this video footage into iMovie 08 using the FILE >IMPORT MOVIES from within iMovie 08
Sailingmaster, I hope this helps you out with making a DVD for your daughter's upcoming wedding, and note, I've been using iMovie 08 for approx two months now, and find it extremely intuitive to use.

PDF does not "Open in iBooks" or "Open with" any apps from Safari.

Hi,
After update to iOS 5, I noticed that PDFs in Safari does not "Open in iBooks" or "Open with" any other apps. The option is available, however, nothing happens when I click on it. Has anyone else experienced such an issue?
Thanks,
Bibin

I have exactly the same issue.
Here is something even more bizarre.
If I go in Safari to
arxiv.org/abs/1012.4362
and click on the link to the pdf it displays it in Safari fine, but wont open it in GoodReader (it will upload it to dropbox but then isnt viewable in there).
However, if I go to the same link in Opera, click on the pdf then, as usual, it opens the pdf in Safari. But now the pdf *can* be uploaded to GoodReader from Safari!

Lightroom 5.6 does not run following latest CC Photoshop 2014 and Bridge updates

I am running Creative Cloud Photography on OSX 10.9.4. Yesterday I updated Photoshop 2014 and Bridge using the CC desktop app as prompted by CC. Since then Lightroom does not run. When I open it the blue intro screen flashes up for less than a second. To try and recover I have uninstalled Lightroom (5.6) and re-installed it several times using both the CC app and directly from the Adobe website. The result is always the same. I can find nothing about this on Adobe Support although I can find others who have had the same symptoms on a web search. Their solution was to re-install Lightroom from the web site but that hasn't worked for me. I had Lightroom installed before I went to CC and before CC included Lightroom in the Photography package. Does anyone understand this issue and can you please advise me what to try next? Many thanks.

Okay, Solution 1 from this link Error "Unable to start correctly - 0Xc00007b" fixed it for me. But now it's asking me for the serial number which I can't find anywhere... shouldn't that go without with the cloud?

Hi
iMovie'09 and 11 have a Blue/Green screen feature. Some find it very good.
Drag a clip ontop of another clip in Project window and You see some choises
and one is "Blue/Green screen".
Other programs that can do this is
• FinalCut - a standard function - no need for extra plug-ins
• iMovie up to HD6 - BUT here You need to buy an extra Plug-in.
