Fireworks 4 and the Intel Macs

Forgive my n00bness, but I'm considering a long-overdue
upgrade from my ruby G3 iMac to one of the new 13" MacBooks and I
need to know if my copy of Fireworks 4 (OS9) will run on it.
Any help appreciated,
Marty

Sorry Marty but no, OS 9 won't run at all on the Intel based
Macs. It'd
still run in Classic if you got a PowerPC based Mac but, at
this point, you
don't really want to be doing that. You're going to get
yourself an upgraded
version of Fireworks.

Can the Intel Mac run OS 10.4.6?

Can the Intel Mac hard drive be split and run OS 10.4.6 on the second drive?

Only if it shipped with that or an earlier Mac OS X version.

Photo Editing Software for the Intel Mac

I've just gotten a Nikon D50 and am trying to figure out what software to purchase to use on my Intel Imac. Obviously something that runs natively would be ideal, but "good" performance would be enough. I'm just an amateur photographer looking to improve my pictures.
Aperture is pricey and has gotten mixed reviews. Nikon is coming out with new Capture software next month (NX I believe), but it doesn't look like it will run natively on the Intel Mac.
Photoshop Elements might be the ticket, though of course it won't run natively now. It will, I believe, allow for "spot" editing, something that the still-beta Lightroom won't do, and something I think I want to be able to do.
Should I consider Boot Camp and PSE for Windows? Would that be a better experience than running the Mac version on my Intel machine? Looks like there's better pricing on the Windows version (at least on Ebay) than the Mac version, but so far I have resisted Boot Camp...hoping to stay out of the Windows world as much as possible.
Is there something else I should be looking at?
I know I'm all over the map here...I'm kind of confused, and just want to get to work making some of these pictures look better. Thanks.

I have a similar question. I don't think I need all the power of Photoshop CS or GIMP, but is there a photo editing package that can change backgrounds of photos? For example, change a black background to white? Can iPhoto do this? Can Photoshop Elements run on iMac Intel? Can PS Elements do this kind of editing? Thanks.

Fiery 250 driver and new Intel Mac

I recently installed a new Intel iMac in my office and hooked it up to our Xerox printer via our Fiery 250 RIP. Bad news--the driver does not work with the Intel Mac. I had a Xerox tech come and try to troubleshoot it for a few hours, went under the hood to try and resolve the issue...nothing. Next step is he is going to have to contact Fiery. Anyone else have any experience with an Intel Mac and getting the driver to work on Fiery? Very inconvenient.
Intel iMac Mac OS X (10.4.5) Intel Mac-Fiery RIP

i can give you a tip.
download the ppd from the support page.
install it via tcpip and select the ppd.
it will work to print, but no special features then.

What is the difference between the Intel HD Graphics 5000 and the Intel Iris Pro Graphics in the current iMacs

What is the difference between the Intel HD Graphics 5000 and the Intel Iris Pro Graphics in the current iMacs?

I am assuming you are talking about PPC Macs? Those haven't been manufactured or sold in years (since early 2006 I believe) when Apple started using Intel processors. There are still some apps which run on PPC code only which makes them incompatible with the last three Mac operating systems.
There are different Applecare products depending on which Mac product you buy, although the coverage is about the same (except for iOS devices).

Is the superdrive in the Core duo Mac mini and the G4 mac mini the same ?

I have a G4 mac mini with a busted super drive and someone is selling a core duo mac mini with ram and a super drive but a bad logic board.
Is the super drive the same in both machines ?
How tough is it to swap it to the other ?
I've done some Hard drive installations and ram installations using the macfixit guide but don't want to bust it I'm certainly not Mr Fix it.
Thanks in advance.

They are not the same.
Compare the PowerPC Mac Mini specs from Archive.org:
"Optional SuperDrive (DVD±RW/CD-RW): writes DVD-R discs at up to 4x speed, writes DVD-RW discs at up to 2x speed, writes DVD+R discs at up to 4x speed, writes DVD+RW discs at up to 2.4x speed, reads DVDs at up to 8x speed, writes CD-R discs at up to 16x speed, writes CD-RW discs at up to 8x speed, reads CDs at up to 24x speed"
To the Intel Mac Mini specs today:
"Slot-loading SuperDrive with double-layer support (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW): writes DVD+R DL discs at up to 2.4x speed, writes DVD-R and DVD+R discs at up to 8x speed, writes DVD-RW and DVD+RW discs at up to 4x speed, reads DVDs at up to 8x speed, writes CD-R discs at up to 24x speed, writes CD-RW discs at up to 16x speed, reads CDs at up to 24x speed"

Microsoft 2004 and my Intel Mac

I know this is a really stupid question but unfortunately I don't know the answer.
I have been given Microsoft Office 2004 and the box shows the old Mac symbol and not the universal symbol. I think, but I'm not sure, that the software pre-dates the Intel Mac. So...will this copy of Office run on an Intel Mac.
Thanks in advance
McD

Hi McD,
there are no such things as'stupid questions'.
MS Office 2004 is a PPC (PowerPC) application, original programmed for the pre-Intel Macs.
Intel-Macs are capable of running such apps through an interpretation-layer called Rosetta.
So the Office 2004 will work on your Intel-Mac, but with a noticeable loss of speed (depending on how much RAM you have).
The 2008 version of MS-Office (due to release in Fall 2007) will be a Universal Binary app.
Have Fun

Researching the Intel Macs - way lost

This research is not for me, I'm very happy with my G4 DDR. But unfortunately, I am totally behind on the new Macs. Need help fast before my brother goes out and buys himself another PC.
My brother, a PC user, trades stocks, I know nothing about this topic. He is tired of having his PCs crash taking all his info with them. He is interested in buying a Mac because he’s heard he can also run windows and still use the download program called Scottrade Elite, which is for windows only.
I looked at the info for iMac 2X and Mac Pro 4X, then there’s the Intel core Duo and the intel Xeon,and the mini, and the ..., but since I've been so happy with my G4, I'm totally behind on these new Macs, and the forum questions/answers are blowing my mind.
What does he need? He's not into video, art, games, just needs to be able to trade on a reliable computer using a PC program. I haven’t mentioned Virtual PC, because this may put him into overload (too much information).
As usual, your help will be most appreciated.

Thank you Ned, Todd, and Kappy!
Ned, I think you’ve come up with the easiest and cheapest solution - the Mac Mini. I’m sure he has a monitor that will work. Now, does the same little adaptor that works on all the older macs work on the mini Mac allowing a PC monitor plug-in to be used on a Mac? Or, he can just buy himself a large display monitor. (It’s fun spending someone else’s money.) I doubt he would even use the Mac side. To him, a computer is just a tool. Yea, I thought the Pro was like driving a 2 ton pickup to pull a kid’s wagon.
Todd, you gave me some good information for comparisons. The ‘virtualization’ sounds really good, but probably too complicated for him to figure out.
The ‘native’ running windows with the Intel Chip sounds like what is in the Mac Mini, right? Maybe I could even get him to peek at the Mac Side eventually. I have heard that one has to purchase a copy of windows, where as the OSX comes with the Mini, right? Is the firmware tweak, Boot Camp, a free download, or does one purchase it?
The emulation is way out. My husband has a copy of VP 6 on his G3 and he is always bugging me to figure out what’s wrong, don’t want to go there twice.
Kappy, the only software his is concerned with is the Scottrade elite. If I suggest he consider a different trading software, there will be dead silence on the other end of the phone. However, I did find a Mac Trading software called thinkorswim http://www.brokeradviser.com/?kw=Think%20Or%20Swim&r=GG_kwThinkOrSwim2a Which would make all my questions moot (irrelevant) as he could use any G4/5, but... Gee, there would be no Windows attracting those nasty viruses using a Mac too!
Expanding on Kappy's reply:
Kappy, are you saying running Virtual PC on my G4 not only attracts viruses, which I had heard, but also has security problems, making my Mac OS X unstable? That makes me ill. BTW, I never use the internet while using the VPC. Can I still get viruses when I'm using the internet in OSX because I have VPC installed?
Again, thank you all for your help and making it easy for me to follow. I will mark the solved/help options as soon as I know this topic is finished.

Bookmarks are not syncing to ONE of my Macs, but showing up on other Mac (work), iPhone 4 and iPad 1. Macs are on Mountain Lion. Tried all of Apple's suggestions - and the one Mac is still not updating/syncing Bookmarks or Reading List. What's going on? Do I have to wait to OS update? It seems lots of peolple were having issues before ML, but I as fine. Since ML, I am having all kinds of issues!

Yeah, I literally have tried everything except deleting my iCloud account (I'm close, but that would require so many changes that it is way too painful to consider at this point).
I am still waiting to hear back from Apple Support. Hopefully something can be done, or they can do a reset on their end.
Thanks for taking the time to respond though, much appreciated!

Are the eMac and the G4 Mac Mini similar enough to...

use the eMac's tiger upgrade to upgrade my mini to Tiger? I know the other versions of tiger upgrades are specific to the hardware, i.e. powerbook, ibook, imac, ect. But seems to me eMac and the G4 mini are very similar. Possible?
thanks

" Are the eMac and the G4 Mac Mini similar enough to use the eMac's tiger upgrade to upgrade my mini to Tiger? "
No.
"I know the other versions of tiger upgrades are specific to the hardware"
And so are the eMac's upgrade discs.

Premiere Pro CC and the New Mac Pro (2014)

I'm expecting delivery soon of a new Mac Pro, nicely loaded, which I purchased mainly because of all the work I do with video. Yet, I read in a review that Adobe Premiere Pro isn't optimized to take advantage of the new Mac Pro, won't run faster, and I'm better off using Apple's Final Cut.
1. Is this true?; and
2. If so, will Premiere Pro be updated any time soon to run best on a 2014 Mac Pro?
My new Mac Pro will have the following configuration:
3.5GHz 6-core with 12MB of L3 cache
32GB (4x8GB) of 1866MHz DDR3 ECC
1TB PCIe-based flash storage
Dual AMD FirePro D700 GPUs with 6GB of GDDR5 VRAM each

My main problem is that when i export using gpu open gl it crashes hard boot the mac pro. A 3 min timeline with 4k footage n a bunch of color grading. I get lucky if the timeline is shorter. But i think it is a gpu issue n my mac must be fixed. Currently under apple tech support. N my case is unique. No one has had the same issue and that makes it harder for me to figure the isse and to apple figure the issue.
If i export using software only mercury then the export goes smoothe no mattrr how long. But that defeata the point of owning a mac pro with 2 GPUs

I have had my 12 core 2014 Mac Pro for a couple of weeks now, and I'm not very impressed with Premiere CC performance with 4K R3D on a 1920 x 1080 timeline.
I understand that there may be an update soon that will take adantage of the CPU's and GPU's when it comes to the complex task of de-bayering the R3D footage, but it's just not there now.
I get similar playback performance to what I experienced on my 09 Mac Pro tower.
Any insights on getting better playback performance in this scenario would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I have an even weirder problem. I skype every night with a person nearby, and the call mac-to-mac is dropped every night at exactly the same hour, to the minute. I have to close skype and restart it and call again and then it works without problems.
I have my imac connected to hi-speed cable.
Any ideas anyone? Thanks!

You should post in Skype forums.
