Does it make that big of a difference to get the 24" Imac?

I'm running FCstudio and plan on upgrading to FCS2. I have a new iMac 20" but was wondering if it makes that much of a difference to take it back and get the 24" (same processor 2.66) but more hard drive and bigger screen. I'm upgrading the rma to 4 gigs, so does my 20" iMac cut the mustard for FCS2? All opinions welcome.

I was just about to ask a slightly similar question!
The hard drive and the screen will have no impact on the actual running of the apps.
What could be more significant is that the cheaper versions all have integrated video cards which are considered as not suitable for certain parts of the FCS package ....... in particular, Color.
However, I don't know what adverse effects could be expected. No doubt some knowledgeable user will be able to give details.

  • I have a ibook that i just bought off of someone . does anyone know waht i have to do to get the internet working on it ?

    does anyone know waht i have to do to get the internet working on it ?

    Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) is the newest OS you can use with it.
    Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Requirements
    Newer versions won't work; they require faster processors and the last two require Intel processors:
    Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Requirements
    Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Requirements
    Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) System Requirements
    What is the hard drive capacity, and how much space remains available on it?
    The iBook is going on ten years old, so if the hard drive hasn't been replaced, that may be necessary (if not now, soon). A hard drive usually lasts from three to five years.
    An iBook G3 (Dual USB) uses an original AirPort Card (with the 802.11b standard). You need to make sure that your router (or wireless modem) will handle that standard if you want the internal card.
    The reason it's telling you that it's up to date is because you have the last version of Mac OS X 10.3 installed. If you want Tiger, you will have to buy the installation disc(s) for it. Does it have a Combo drive or a CD-ROM drive? The reason I ask is that Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) usually comes on DVD, so it's much easier to install on an iBook which has a Combo drive (which will read DVDs).

     Hi,
    One of my ex-colleagues has installed a NI-DAQ 6.5 in our system. [And I do not see any other naitional instruments card in the CPU of the computer, may be he removed it] I deleted the account and all his files in the system. When I am trying to install version8.0, its not getting installed and giving me a message that I should uninstall the previous version by going to Add/Remove programs in the control panel.
    I tried doing that, but the "Change/Remove" button does not seem to work...[There is no response and so unable to install the new version...]
    Any idea how can this problem be solved?
    It is a windowsXP operating system with SP2 installed on a machine with P4 processor.
    Thanks

  • Since I've upgraded to Maverick the airpot utility does not recognise that there is a time capsule on the wireless network. I can see the TC using the air port utility on my iPhone5 and on my iPad. What am I doing wrong on my macbook?

    Since I've upgraded to Maverick on my Macbook Pro the airpot utility does not recognise that there is a time capsule on the wireless network. I can see the TC using the air port utility on my iPhone5 and on my iPad. What am I doing wrong on my macbook?

    I have over 250G backed up and I really don't want to reset everything and start again.
    Not sure what you mean here. 
    A reset will not affect any of the data on the Time Capsule hard drive.  You would have to perform a completely separate and very deliberate Erase Disk operation for that to occur.
    I'm not recommending that you perform a default reset, but it is an option if there is really nothing else to try.
    I don't know if what you are seeing is a Mavericks issue or not, since I refuse to use any new software until at least the first major update with fixes comes along.
    Another user may be able to offer more input on Mavericks.

  • Does this mean that ios 6.0.1 will be the last ios update for ipad 2 and iphone 4s?

    With the release of ios 6.0.2, which is only available for the iphone 5 (and ipad mini) does this mean that ios 6.0.1 will be the last software update for the 4s?

    As that was only a bugfix update specific to those devices, no.

  • My iPhone was stolen and I have contacted the police who are using the meid number to locate.  How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back?

    My iPhone was stolen.  I used Find My iPhone app to lock it and display a message.  The phone has not connected to the internet to locate it.  I contacted the police and they have taken my meid number.  How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back?  Are there other ways the theif can use it.  I was told once they put in a new sim card and use it, whatever software the police have, it will show up.

    Honestly? In the US (I can't speak to other countries, though I doubt it works much differently in a lot of the world) The police took your report and filed it either in their computers or, on paper. They will now not think of this again. The only time it will cross anyones mind is if, in the course of entering information into evidence about items recovered or seized at a crime scene, the serial number of an iPhone that was found/seized happens to match yours, in which case you will be contacted.
    The police in the US can and will do nothing to 'blok' the phone and it's not worth their time to try and locate it unless you know for a fact that it was stolen by a big time drug lord, master criminal, or some other such prime target and they can get a court order to track the location of the phone in order to locate this individual for your own purposes.  If they do that, they'll probably keep him under surveilance for a year or so before they act.
    Basically, the police don't care about your phone. If they find it, they will give it back to you. They are not, however, going to go looking for it. They have better things to do.
    I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.

    It looks like the CD is damaged.  You could try copying the entire CD on to your hard disk in a temporary folder and then launch the setup.exe file by double clicking on it.
    Can you do this?  Please post back.
    Whether 5 can run in Windows 7 is something I don't know.  You just have to try it.

  • People NEED to read, help me make that big step to the micro. ?'s on sound qual

    i'm in the market for an mp3 player and my 2 main options are the zen micro and the zen touch. The only thing that is keeping me from going w/ the micro is the song storage. i know i can get 2500 songs w/ 64kbps, but only 250 w/ 28kb
    ps.
    i've heard the sound quality is superb, so would i even need to record w/ the 28kbps or just the 64, is the sound any better? if its about the same, i'll go w/ the micro. also, any major things i need to know about either player (huge bugs or anything)? any other mp3 player suggestions (other than the "pod" ) also, could i just record songs from windows media player straight to the player? thanks. feel free to post whatever u think is important.

    I play WMA's at 96kbps and the sound quality is great. I sometimes hear new things in songs I didn't before. I can't say about 64kbps WMA's though.
    I have had none of the freezing problems. My first Zen Micro did go back though because there was a "black spec" of dust of something under the screen. That Micro froze several times. The one I exchanged it for I think froze the first time I used it, but in the two weeks since then it has not froze at all.
    I love that as soon as I hit the power button, I am hearing music. There is zero lag time between hitting the power button and hearing music.
    It was a tough choice though between the Touch. I decided to make a superficial decision and go with the Micro just because the thought of owning the Micro made me excited. The Zen Touch had no wow factor at all to me. Stupid, yes, but hey, it's your money right? Plus, I love laughing at fool iPod Mini owners. At least the Zen Micro is fully featured (FM tuner, voice recorder, 5gb) for it's price.
    I got black (because the only other option in Japan is silver right now) and love the color. It's badass looking, especially if it's whipped out in the semi-dark.

  • Does Apple make a cord to plug a guitar into the iMac?

    I saw an Apple tutorial video that showed a little white cable that a guitar could plug into. The male end plugged into the back of the Mac. Anybody know where I can get one, or what it's officially called? The local Apple store was no help.

    That was probably an iMic - an audio interface that lets you connect your guitar to an USB port.
    Does your guitar have a buit-in pre-amp? If not, you might be better of with an interface like the Apogee Jam.

  • Itunes says that i need 10.5 to get the new iphone software, but i already have 10.5 itunes

    itunes says that i need itunes 10.5 to get the new iphone software, but i already have 10.5 itunes.  i cant seem to figure out how to get the new iphone software cause it keeps telling me to download updates, and then it does and update search and says im all updated.

    I had a similar issue.  I had to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it.  Assuming PC, you have to go to the control panel and use the uninstall applications tool.  Then install it again.  Worked for me.

  • HT1473 Had to "repair" Itunes today after error messages would not let me open. I can no longer sync my phone to computer without deleting all of the contect on my phone. I don't want to do that! I am trying to get the music from my Iphone to my Itunes li

    Little background:
    Went to open Itunes, error message told me I was missing files and I was unable to open. I deleted Itunes and re-downloaded and received same message. I then "repaired" Itunes from my "unistall/change" program menu. The error message then changed to being "unable to read my library of music." So I fixed that by following some other forum directions (Went to My Computer/Music/Itunes then dragged the most recent Itunes Library selection to my desktop, then opened the folder under music titled "Previous Itunes library" and moved that file into that folder. Thankfully that worked... sort of... I have some music in my library. None of the music from my super old Limewire library, or any recent music from my phone. All of which was in my library last night. Not to mention the HOURS of cd's I burned to Itunes over the entire weekend. Hundreds (at least) of songs are missing.
    So I attempted to sync my phone and was told it would delete all of the files in my phone to replace with files from my computer. Which is NOT what I want to happen. Trying to get music FROM my phone to my computer.
    Can someone please help me simply sync my phone to my computer? And then somehow get the music from my Limewire library to my Itunes library? I know I may not get the burned music back... But that sure would be amazing.
    I am at a loss. Apple won't help unless I pay them... So hopefully this looks familiar to someone!
    Thanks,
    Katie

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • HT1918 I tried to change my password to my business credit card since almost all of the music and other things I buy from iTunes is for my work. But it wouldn't take that credit card number. I get the error message, the account is not connected to my Bank

    Hopefully, my question will appear with this comment. I'm new to Apple support. I really wanted an answer from Apple's billing/accounting department. I didn't think I'd need to submit it to a whole community to get an answer. I just want to change my account number to my business credit card but every time I try I get the error message that this account is not connected to my bank. Why is that necessary? It's my WORK credit card. It's not going to be connected to my personal bank account. I'm sure I'm not the only one that purchases work-related items from iTunes. What can I do to use this credit card when I am purchasing something for work? Can anyone assist me?

    First, please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The only people who will reply to your posts are we your fellow users. iTunes Support will never respond to posts made here.
    As to your issue, confirm with your bank that they do not block access from on-line services or otherwise have restrictions on with whom a card can be used. For some company cards, such blocks can be set up. If you confirm that no such restrictions are in place, post back and we'll go from there.
    Regards.
