Dual 2.8GHz for HD*  is this true?

system requirements state dual 2.8GHz for HD*... how much punch do I really need in the real world?
thanks in advance

Intel i7
When I have the $$ and after CS5 is released (Hopefully in 64bit) I am going to build a new computer... this will be for SD only, and I will NOT overclock the Asus motherboard and I do not need Raid... as much as possible, I am buying when Newegg has free shipping on the item I want (I am going to buy the CPU & Ram & MB last, just before I start building, in case there is a problem and I need to return anything)
If I were going to edit HD video, I would replace the single 1-T drive with a RAID setup for faster I/O - but, since I've never had any I/O problems with a single data drive on my old computer, I see no reason for raid on this computer
It should work, but if Win2k and the Pinnacle Dv500 I have won't work with this new motherboard, I will buy an ADVC-300 external device $400 at http://www.academicsuperstore.com/products/Grass+Valley/ADVC+Digital+Video+Converters/7039 31 to work with my old analog camcorder (plus old VHS tapes I am slowly converting to DVD)

    Hi,
    Not that's not normal and is one of the Problems I was having before Restoring as New...
    Just make sure you Sync ALL your important Info... Contacts... Music... Etc... to your Computer...
    and then do a Restore as New...
    i was a bit reluctant at First, because I hadn't done it before... But it was So Easy and am Really Glad I did...
    Cheers,

  • HT1267 can apple unlock iphones once out of contract as network providers have to go to apple for unlocking is this true?

    hi can anyone answer the question why do phone carriers have to go to apple to get phones unlocked can apple do this for you once phone is out of the contract/3 month period?

    The carrier has to authorise Apple to set up the unlock via iTunes. Apple does not initiate unlocking unless authorised by the carrier to which the phone is locked.

  • Yes this this true ! Dont let anyobody lie to you ...

    How to know that your mobile is original or not ?????
    Press the following on your mobile *#06# and the-international mobile equipment identity number appears. Then check the 7th and 8th numbers:
    1 2 3 4 5 6 7th 8th 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
    Phone serial no. x x x x x x ? ? x x x x x x x
    IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 02 or 20 this means your cell phone was assembled in Emirates which is very Bad quality
    IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 08 or 80 this means your cell phone was manufactured in Germany which is fair quality
    IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 01 or 10 this means your cell phone was manufactured in Finland which is very Good
    IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 00 this means your cell phone was manufactured in original factory which is the best Mobile Quality
    IF the Seventh & Eighth digits are 13 this means your cell phone was assembled in Azerbaijan which is very Bad quality and also dangerous for your health
    This true ! Dont let anyobody lie to you !
    Solved!

    The location of manufacture is not encoded into the IMEI number, Nokia doesn't even create the numbers - they receive them from an external industry regulatory body. The details for all IMEIs since 1st Jan 2004 are as follows:
    The first two digits (theoretically) represent the national association which issued the number, though in practice the worldwide GSM Association now issues all IMEIs. The first two digits '35' (theoretically) indicate the British Approvals Board of Telecommunications, though all IMEIs in the world currently begin 35...
    The next six digits represent the device type (640602 is a Nokia N96, 808201 is a Nokia N82; 908801 is a Sony Ericsson K800i etc.)
    The next six digits are the individual device's unique serial number
    The final digit is a check-digit.

  • I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008) and am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I would like to know which is the most stable upgrade for my model. I have read some reviews of Maverick and Yosemite making the older macs slower. Is this true?

    I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008), Intel Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz, 4GB Memory. and am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    I would like to know which is the most stable upgrade for my model? Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite?
    When I had gone to the apple care centre in India a few months ago to upgrade my OSX to Mountain Lion, I was told that considering my macbook pro's specs, upgrading it would just make it less efficient, and that I should stick to Snow Leopard unless I consider buying a newer mac that would benefit from it. Is this true? I find it a bit hard to believe. Which update is most recommended?
    I also notice that my mac has gotten considerably slower. While using chrome, it buffers and struggles with even just 5 tabs open. Could this have something to do with my current ios? As a precaution, I have always been making sure I have enough free space on disk i.e around 70 - 100 free out of 250GB.
    Any advice is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Mavericks is no longer available from the App Store, so your choice is Yosemite. One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won't have to go though the revert process.
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

  • I have an ipod touch 4g. I want to use our internet hdtv as a monitor so others can see my screen in 40". Sony guy said that can do it wirelessly through the internet router instead of Hdmi without the need for an apple tv.Is this true and how do I do it?

    As I said above, I want to view my iPod screen on our new 40" Sony Internet full HD TV.
    I know that you can do this via HDMI but a Sony guy said that you should be able to do this wirelessly by going through the router. Is this true and can I do this without the need for the Apple TV?
    We are soon going to get the airport extreme, so will it work with that?

    1. Is it a smart TV?
    2. If so.... Is the TV connected to the Internet?
    3. If it is.... Check if your iPod and your TV share the same IP address (Wi-Fi network)
    4. If they do.... Then you should go to wherever your "Other Media" tab is.
    5. After that.... Search for you iPod. Because it is connected to the same network, it should recognize the device they same way AirPrint does.
    6. If you happen to see this fail, then try this method:
    1. Do you have a Bluetooth-enabled computer/laptop?
    2. If so.... Enable the bluetooth on the computer/laptop as well as your iPod.
    3. After that.... Your iPod should be actively searching and it should find the computer/laptop.
    4. If it did.... Transfer the file onto Windows/Mac (preferably Mac) and find the program to open the file.
    5. After doing so.... Connect your computer/laptop to the TV via HDMI Output Cable.
    6. Now it should work!

  • I've lost all my music since my last computer died. How do I get that music back without having to pay for it? I read somewhere that there is a "form to request to download iTunes purchases again", is this true?

    All of my music is missing from iTunes since my last computer died and had to get a new one.  How do I get that music back without having to pay for it again?  I've read somewhere there is a "form to request to download iTunes purchases again", is this true? 

    Media should be included with the backup of the computer that all users should be creating on a regular basis as part of basic computer/data maintenance.
    In the event that you do not have a backup (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files)
    If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
    If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content.  They are not required to provide this opportunity.
    It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes.  On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
    The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer.  Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this.

  • My mother never opened/registered her AppleCare she bought 1 year ago. I was told I can't use her AppleCare for my 4s I got this month because a newer version has been released, she can't even use it herself. Is this true? Can she get a refund?

  • On Instagram you offer a free iPhone for 20K tagers and followers, is this true or a scam.

    It is definitely not an Apple promotion. Whether it's a genuine offer from someone else we don't know but it sounds rather unlikely.

  • I recently had my computer stolen and not my purchases from I tunes store were backed up. I've been told there is a way that I can re-download my missing tracks from the store without having to pay for them again. Is this true, if so, how do go about it.

    Unfortunately, redownloading of past music purchases isa still in beta test and only available in the US right now.
    It's due for everyone this fall.  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    If you can't wait, contact the iTunes Store Support Team at this link
    If you get lucky, they may be able to authorize another download now.

  • SATA Card for G5 Dual 1.8Ghz

    I'm looking for an internal SATA card for my PowerMac G5 Dual 1.8Ghz. I've got a couple hard drives laying around that I wanted to RAID together with my Time Machine Backup drive. Instead of spending hours looking on Google, I figured I'd poll the masses.
    Newegg.com has a ton but I want to make sure I get one that is compatible with my hardware.
    Thanks in advance!

    The only sure thing is the Firmtek Seritek cards.
    They are also the only ones that support boot to the connected drives.
    Native OS X support is also an important point.
    Firmtek also provides excellent tech support
    After that, Highpoint has compatibles, and non compatibles.
    They don't support boot, and, but can perform well enough.
    If you take the path less taken, and get a card that uses generic Silicon Images drivers, then OS X support, and successful use, is highly variable (to say the least).

  • Video cards for Dual 1.8Ghz G5

    I'm wanting to upgrade my 64mb video card in my Dual 1.8Ghz G5.
    What should I be looking for? Is the slot PCI or PCI-X?
    Is there a difference between a "PC" card and a "Mac" card, or could I buy a card from, say, Newegg.com and install it in my G5?
    Thanks very much for the help!

    Apple offers an out of warranty or not covered under the warranty "repair" price, which pays for an exchange at a discounted price off the full retail sales price.

    Apple does not provide SIM cards, carriers do.
    Go to your carrier and get a SIM card.  Whether it is free or not is up to them.
