Does TimeCapsule work better with TimeMachine then other brands harddrives?

I have been having problems getting Time Machine to work since I've been using it for over a year and a half. It will work at times and then stop. When I talked to someone at the Genius Bar they made it sound like using a Time Capsule wouldn't cause all the problems that my western digital has been giving me. Is that true? I don't want to go out and spend $300 - $500 and then find out that that doesn't work either.
Does a Time Capsule have to be wireless or can it connect over ethernet? I am not sure if where I work has wireless capabilities. I think they just stick with DSL.
Thanks

  • Does Photoshop work better with Canon EOS 7D or Nikon D7000?

    18.0 megapixels - Canon EOS 7D
    16.2 megapixels - Nikon D7000
    Also, I keep reading the best digital image format to work with in Photoshop CS5.5 is RAW.
    Is this right?
    Thank you.

    You should know that the sensors are made or at least created by the same company it is a question of specification by the manufacturer that determines which sensor and advance standard the sensor is made.
    That being the case Canon has traditional jump the gun to select the more advanced technology rather than wait for that technology to be 100% perfected as in a full frame 35mm format sensor.
    Also they have consistently favored larger pixel count over quality of the pixel itself and use software (the firmware) to smooth the result giving it that slightly soft quality.
    They do this with their lenses as well in particular to their Shift Tilt lenses which had to be updated since Nikon waited and were very successful with that update as well.
    It is not that the cameras as not popular or good but if they wait they might be able to give their customers the better product.
    Like the sensors the Shift Tilt lenses seem to be made by the same company but with different specification and perhaps different glass.
    The two cameras you are speaking of are not their high end cameras but like all the products both companies make they are good depending on what you need.
    And counting pixels is kind of ridiculous these days as the New 1DX has a lower pixel count then its predecessors because they found that making larger pixels enable them to control the noise better as Nikon discovered.
    I still use the D3 and my client in Paris often enlarges the images to over a meter in hieght with amazing detail and it could easily be resampled much larger.
    And you are talking about 12.1 megapixels to start with so the game of pixel has some meaning but not much.
    When they perfect the noise control for smaller pixels then the technology for a larger pixel count will have some weight right now that is not the case although from what the they claim about the 1Dx might prove to be an indication that they hav made some strides in this direction it reamins to be seen if Canon has jump the gun again which I suspect they have done.
    Doing things in a rush is often the slower way to a goal.
    Let see if Canon jump the gun again. I would think Nikon woud have been on it if they thought the tehnology was finished they get the sensors from the same place.
    So far all I have seen is that the body looks good?

  • Is one brand of printer better doing photo work on Macs than the others?

    Hi,
    I'm still having issues with trying to print photos. Text is fine - photos are an endless source of frustration.
    The only program that I seem to have that will allow for printing one sheet of photo paper with 4 different photos on it is PhotoShop Elements. But its print program is telling me that my prints may not be as good because my printer isn't a "PostScript" printer. It's right, my prints are awful. When I pull up my info about my Mac and look at the printer info, it lists a version of PostScript [version (3010.000) 705] so it must be a PostScript printer - but the computer or PhotoShop isn't picking up on that.
    I have an Epson Stylus Photo RX620 all in one. A tech guy at Apple told me that all in ones can be touchy.
    Those of you who do photo work; Have you found that there is a brand of printer that works better with your Mac? Should I get a photo printer and scanner seperately, instead of the all in one?
    I have old photos and slides that I'm wanting to work with so I need the scanner.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you,
    Pearl

  • Why does iMessages does not work properly ? Please help me ! Its works better with the previous version if compared with the latest iOS

    Why does iMessages does not work properly ? Please help me ! Its works better with the previous version if compared with the latest iOS

    Many, many thanks for both of you Todd and Rick.
    to Rick:
    I suppose you mean the Color Settings in Project Settings as follows:
    - Working Space: None
    - Match Legacy ... Gamma Adjustments checked ON
    But it does not correct the colors in effects. And checking or unchecking Make Movie/Output Module Settings/Color Management/Profile/Preserve RGB does not make any difference.
    to both of you:
    Those parts of the video image that does not have color effects are just fine. In these parts the color is preserved when reimporting to FCP. However, those parts having color effects (except Levels, as decribed earlier) have altered color results. So, only the parts having effects affecting color are misinterpreted in the image area. The mismatch is of course seen in AE, before making the movie.
    What I ment with "Color Management not working properly" is that (instead of "disabling" it) Color Management does not seem to be able to correct this "misinterpretation" or difference in effect handling between AE 6 and 10.
    So, would you have any solution for this problem?
    Again, many thanks for your fast replies!

  • Maverick's Mail does not work with Gmail ! it works better with iOS 7

    For info.
    I do know how it's complex to program and more for an OS System.
    Maverick's Mail DOES NOT work proprely with Gmail boxes ? Gmail incoming or outcoming messages are correctly notified on my iPhone 5s with iOS 7. But not on my Macbook Pro retina (end 2012) with Mavericks. One update was suppose to solve the trouble.
    Hope you'll solve the problem as soon as possible. Bur not during the nights. But during your daytimes' work !
    Wish you nice end of year's days.
    And please get my best wishes for 2014. Hope you'll get a lot of these nice little moments of happiness.
    Best regards.

    Have you checked your incoming and outgoing mail server settings?
    If you are using IMAP, it should look something like the following:
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    imap.gmail.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL:Yes
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires TLS
    smtp.gmail.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Use same settings as incoming mail server
    If you are using POP3, it should look something like the following:
    Incoming mail server type: POP3
    Incoming mail (POP3 or IMAP) server: pop.gmail.com. Google Apps users, enter the server name provided, don't add your domain name in these steps.
              Port: 995
    Outgoing e-mail server (SMTP) name: smtp.gmail.com
         Port: 465
    Outgoing server requires authentication: enabled

  • Does Lightroom work well with hiDPI Windows 8.1 touchscreen ultrabooks?

    Hi all,
    My old laptop is on the fritz, shopping for a new one.
    Apart from the Web, the application I use the most is Lightroom.
    I've been interested in the nice new ultrabooks, but I'm wondering: does Lightroom work well with hiDPI Windows 8.1 touchscreen ultrabooks?
    Is hiDPI advantageous, or actually annoying?
    What can you actually use touch for in Lightroom, and does it improve your workflow?
    Thanks kindly!

    I am not 100% sure whether lightroom supports HiDPI on windows but on Mac OS X it is absolutely fantastic (I use a retina MBP). So I would see if you can try it out somewhere. My guess is that Lightroom supports it on Windows too and then I can highly recommend it.
    No clue if touch works well or not for Lightroom. My guess is not as almost always using touch in applications that were not designed for it is very kludgey.

  • Does PPBM6 work properly with Adobe's free trial CS6 download?

    Does PPBM6 work properly with Adobe's free trial download of Premiere Pro CS6?
    Does the CS6 download include the 6.0 level release, or is it the latest version (or at least download patchable to the latest version)?
    If anyone has actually done exactly this, please share your experience?
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Randall,
    Just a snippet from my mail to Bill about testing results up to now:
    MPEG2 results appear to be dependent not on number of cores, but on amount of memory, next to the video card and maybe memory controller. How else would your SB be faster than your 980 with the same video card and 4 cores versus 6? I think 32 GB versus 24 GB is the differentiating factor here, as well as the memory controller on the SB, or am I trying to find explanations that are not there?
    Disk I/O is purely a matter of sustained transfer rates. Number of cores is irrelevant here. I don't have sufficient data yet to determine whether amount of memory will be influential, but I assume there is a lower limit when the results will further decrease. We are talking about a 37,092 MB file being written to disk and the sustained transfer rate can be negatively influenced by a limited amound of memory.
    MPEG2-DVD as shown above.
    H.264 is mainly a factor of number of cores, size of the L3 cache, amount and speed of the memory and clock speed.
    MPE Gain is a resultant calculated number. It is hard to interpret, I admit, but in general you will see that the better a system is performing, the lower the Gain figure. Very fast systems can handle software MPEG2-DVD encoding quite well, slower systems struggle with that task, but with hardware MPE even slower systems achieve around the same figure as faster systems and the consequence is that slower systems show a higher gain.
    Further notice that the new Total Time figure is only the sum of Disk I/O + MPEG2-DVD + H.264-BR. In the PPBM5 test we included the rendering test as well, but since we no longer use that, it is no longer a part of the Total score. Also, the weighing of test results to calculate the RPI has been adjusted for this new test.
    Hope this gives some informative background info.

  • Hi I have just bought a mac book pro 2ghz 8gb ram with haswell.also it's running maverick. I am wanting to start using logic but does it work ok with maverick everything I read says it's no good please help

    Hi I have just bought a mac book pro 2ghz 8gb ram with haswell.also it's running maverick. I am wanting to start using logic but does it work ok with maverick everything I read says it's no good please help

    Which version of Logic? I have 9, but I've yet to install it. I'm just creating the images of the disks atm to install them on my Haswell. Will let you know how that performs.
    Logic 10 would most certainly work fine though.

  • Which version of Galaxy S6 works better with At&t G920I or G920F?

    Which version of Galaxy S6 works better with At&t G920I or G920F? I heard that the bands are way different so before purchasing anything I will like to hear if there is anyone having already an unlocked galaxy s6 working properly with At&t?

    Thanks GLIMMERMAN76 The reason why I asked its because I order this:  http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1136399-REG/samsung_g920i_32gb_black_galaxy_s6_sm_g920i_32gb.html And I had several issues with the signal where on my previous iPhone 5 I was getting speeds of 35mbps on the G920i I was getting 5 to 7 mbps I called At&t customer support told me that they could not register my devices on their network because the imei was not supported or something like that so I contact the store where I order this and return it since it was not working for me (because of the LTE speeds) Now Im concerned and want to order the right model this time. What are your download speeds? where they able to register your devices in the At&t network? -Thank you.

    Hello! I'm looking to purchase a Bluetooth. I'm really liking the LG Tone Pro. Does this work Good with a Iphone 4S?

    It should. I don't see why it wouldn't. It all depends on the quality of the headphones though. You should borrow one from someone who has it and test the headphones itself (music, calls, and other features)

  • Firefox feedback section does not work in firefox 6 or other browsers with a more sane update schedule

    I tried to post this in the feed back section but it does not appear to be working in firefox version 6.
    I have been working with computers for 30 Years, used Firefox since version 1.0 recommended it through websites that I develop and for people that I work with - I am afraid that will be coming to an end unless you guys stop the nonsense.
    I do not like how you assume I want a new version very 6 weeks.
    There is no clear documentation of the changes for each release. I Do not have time for this – it should be simple – it’s not -
    There is no way to know why my add-ons are disabled with every update. And I have a basic vanilla system with a Java Console Broken, Kaspersky URL Advisor – Broken – vendors are going to stop supporting the Firefox browser if you break their code every time there is an update – and if I was them I would – this is the second time this has been broken in 6-months.
    WTF - Can't you guys just write a patch or fix a security problem without a version change and breaking everything? I want stable and secure - that appears to have stopped with Firefox version 3.6
    I know it’s free but there is a ton of free software I choose not to run because it is crap -

    << I Tried to post it through this link -

  • Does iPhoto 9.2.3 work better with SnowLeo on a 2009 MacMini?

    Hi,
    I have iPhoto version 8 from ilife09 installed and it works well with my 2009 2.26GhZ C2D MacMini.
    Some time ago when iPhoto version 9 was released. I got it over the Appstore.
    But once installed i was not lucky with version 9.
    It was slower than version 8 . Scrolling through the images was stuttery and i got some crashes when working with the software.
    So i went back to version 8.
    Now i want to know if version 9 is more stable in the meantime and if the speed was increased?

    Hard to answer that question. I've had 11 since it was released and had no such issues. WHat you describe could easily have been caused by an errant cache file or fixed by rebuilding the database. There is no particular reason to expect you would have the same result if you updated now, nor that you mightn't.
    Back up first, that way reverting is straightforward.

    TD
