Flip4Mac: Which version should I upgrade?
Hello everyone,
I have Quicktime 7.0.4 Pro and I sometimes do need to import some *.wma "crap" into my footage (which then is edited by FCP). I guess I need to upgrade my Flip4Mac from the free version (currently 2.0.2). Could you please tell me which version should I go for? My choice would be one of Player Pro ($29), Studio ($49) and Studio Pro ($99). Which one should I pick and which version you guys are using the most in conjuction with Final Cut Pro 5? (The best value for money)
Thank you very much for your guide in this matter, all the advices are warmly welcome.
Cheers,
James
Pro lets you start with WMV and make QT (or in Toast you can use WMV as source files and make MPEG-1, 2 VCD or DVD etc.)
The Studio $49 makes WMV from QT e.g. the other way around. Obviously Bill Gates gets a piece to use a WM encoder. This version has preset WMV settings.
The last one does the same but lets you set custom encodes.
If you are never making WMV and that is always a good idea, the $29 adds ability to use WMV in various apps and may be all you need.

Which version should I upgrade to? - 5.7/6.7 or 6.0?
Hi,
For the first time, IronPort currently has two WSA releases available for preview*. As there is no upgrade path available between those releases, this is a fork in the release path.
This obviously raises the question which version you should upgrade to. As I've seen some discussion around this in other posts and as this will become even more important once we hit general availability, I'll try to shed some light on this here.
So, which version is right for you?
* The two releases have a different focus and feature set:
Marconi (5.7 on the WSA, 6.7 on the SMA) introduces Centralized Policy Management and Delegated Administration of your Web Security Appliances via a Security Management Appliance (M-Series).
* Aurora (6.0) introduces native FTP, Data Loss Prevention / IronPort Data Security, support for AD 2008 and other authentication and policy enhancements.
Depending on your needs, one of them will be more appealing than the other. For now, you will have to decide which feature set you want to use in the short term until we release a version of AsyncOS for Web / Management that combines both feature sets.
Important facts to keep in mind:
* There is no upgrade path from 5.7 to 6.0 or vice versa on the WSA. Once you decide to use the functionality of one of the releases, you will only be able to use the features of the other release after an upgrade to AsyncOS for Web 6.3 and AsyncOS for Management 6.7.3 which is scheduled for Q4 2009.
* ICCM v1 is no longer available on AsyncOS for Management 6.7 so if you want to manage your Web Security Appliances via ICCM v1 do not upgrade your SMA to 6.7.
* AsyncOS 6.7 for Management supports Centralized Tracking / Reporting for your Email Security Appliances running AsyncOS 6.5 for Email or newer only. Please ensure that your Email Security Appliances run 6.5 or newer or upgrade accordingly if you want to use them with your SMA.
* 'preview' means that the release is not generally available yet (slow roll-out) but can be provisioned to anybody interested in the new features or fixes available in the new release.You should be able to just tell your client to ftp directly to the proxy and then give the appropriate FTP info, such as the actual FTP server to connect to.
I'm pretty sure that the exact details are in the User Guide. I'll check the guide shortly.
If you are doing authentication with FTP proxy, you will have to enter your credentials in the special format that is specified in the FTP configuration. -

I am planning to purchase an ipad2(with 3G) in US. Which version should I purchase (AT&T or Verizon)? Will thye be unlocked?
Can I use them in New Zealand?
KannanIf you want to be able to use the iPad with local micro-sims when you back to New Zealand then you need the AT&T version - the Verizon model is CDMA based and doesn't use sim cards. The AT&T iPad is not locked to them.

Get the AT&T version. The verizon is CDMA, which doesn't work in other countries while the AT&T version uses SIM cards, so you can use it with other networks.

Which version should I consider: Dreamweaver CS5 MAC or PC?
I'm ready to make the leap from FrontPage 2003 to Dreamweaver. I have an iMAC with LION OS and run Parallels. I'm currently using FP2003 and have for many years and an very comfortable with it. But I understand it's time to make a leap of faith and try something new. My dilemma lies with this: Which version of CS5 should I get? Should I run the MAC or PC version? I only use MAC products but I want to be able to convert my FP web sites easily. Would one OS work better than the other?
I also noticed in discussions that the Photo Gallery attribute is not in this current version. That is disappointing. Does CS5 have other alternatives for photo viewing?
And lastly, what resources would you suggest for assisting with the "learning curve" from FP to Dreamweaver?
Thanks for any info!

I am very new to Photoshop and image editing. I want to edit photos for diy wall art such as adding borders, distressing, etc.
Can someone direct me as to which version I should purchase?
Thank you in advance!If you have not used Photoshop I would suggest you start with Photoshop Elements not full Photoshop. Element has some hand holding which is helpful for novice users. Photoshop is quite complex and all things are not intuitive. You need to learn how to use Photoshop and it takes a very long time. You never stop discovering how things are being done in Photoshop. Elements version 13 was just released it can be had for under $100. It should do you for years and help you learn Photoshop's ways.
If you buy a wacom Intuos pro small $220 the through in a copy of Elements I received Elements 12 with them. Perhaps the will change to Elements 13... Using a pressure sensitive Pen with Brush type tools is much better then using a mouse. You can have both Mouse and Pen atachec to your machine. -

What version should I upgrade to?
I am currently using Premiere RT 5.1. I know, I know, it's ancient. Before anyone gets on my case, I did do this as a career once. I went to film school, interned and learned how to edit using a Matrox computer and Premiere software. After I left that job, I changed my direction, settled down and became a full-time mom. I have dabbled in video projects since once or twice a year to make extra money. I bought a used system from a former client that's 10 years old. At this point in our lives, money for groceries is scarce enough, so I'm not anywhere near purchasing the newest version of Premiere. But I can't keep going on like this. I've spent 3 full days trying to edit together a simple video of my son's preschool Christmas program. It should have taken me 3 hours. I'm now switching to a cheap consumer software just to be able to finish it.
My question is this: Should I purchase the new Premiere Elements or an older version of Pro on ebay. The little bit of money that I should make on DVD's from the other parents should be able to give me that choice. I hate to go down to a consumer version of editing, but I assume having Premiere Elements is still eons better than 5.1. Is there someone that has used all of the above and can tell me what I'll be losing if I go with Elements? My 10 year old editing computer is currently running on Windows 2000, and has many quirks (like sometimes not turning on). But I can usually deal through those. For little projects, I like using my laptop, so I can watch my kids. I'm on Vista with it (a limited, cheap laptop). I don't think I would mind keeping 5.1 on the edit computer, since the whole system is ancient anyway. But the laptop needs something newer.
Also, does anyone have any suggestions for an alternative to using a big soundboard? Again, I can't afford a new soundboard. But is there some sort of 2-4 input cheap version just to be able to hook up my few components? I would like to have some brand/model names to look for used on ebay. I believe my soundboard has officially moved to the paperweight category. Is there anyone that recycles these?
Thank you for your help!I've used both PrPro (now up to 2.0), and PrE 4. I use a laptop, but it's built for NLE and Photoshop work. For final color and gamma correction, I still take images, and video to my workstation.
One caveat for a new laptop: the more physical HDD's, that you can get, the better. In my Sager (really an extreme gaming laptop, configured for NLE work), I have 3x 200GB SATA II's, and not many laptop vendors offer more than one HDD. Two would be the absolute minimum, and three would be even better. Because I transfer Projects between the laptop and the workstation, I use FW-800 external HDD's, with all Project, media, Scratch Disks, etc., on those. Each has a unique drive letter assigned on both the OS of the laptop and the workstation, so that Z:\ is always Z:\ on all computers.
Now, back to the two programs: I really like PrPro, and find the "big button" approach of PrE to not be my thing. Still, I use it for small Projects. It offers limited DVD-Video authoring, but I always use Adobe EncoreDVD 2.0 (my version), and note that Encore is now bundled with PrPro.
Since you are beyond the upgrade path, on Premiere, you are looking at a big price difference, unfortunately.
I've also followed the trials and tribulations of PrE 8, to which John alludes. PrE 7 seemed much more stable, but that is just from reading, as I have used neither. It seems that PrE 8 requires much more power, than does PrE 7.
I also second John's comments on eBay. It seems that almost all copies of Adobe programs there are pirated copies. Some will run, partially, but usually not without issues. They also cannot be registered, or Activated (in the case of PrPro). Be very wary, and demand that any seller provide you with the full official transfer of license paperwork from Adobe. Adobe makes it very easy to do, with legit software. Demand that paperwork, and then verify with Adobe. Most sellers will put you off, and make excuses for why there is no transfer paperwork. This is usually done by FAX, so there is NO reason for them to not have it. Also, with PrPro, there is no OEM software, and most pirates will claim that is what they are selling.
Good luck,
Hunt -
I've been using a 24" iMac (originally purchased in mid-2006) to do graphic design with Adobe Creative Cloud, primarily Photoshop, Indesign, and Illustrator. I am also starting to do some very ametuer video prep (like iMovie) etc. With just Photoshop and Indesign alone, what is the minimum Mac I should upgrade to, if I am still concerned about performance, but budget and mobility could come into play too? For instance would the 13.3" Mac Book Pro with Intel Graphics be sufficient for doing my usual print design, with a little iMovie thrown in? At that price, I could afford a big display to plug into when I am at my office desk.
I like the idea of mobility (which I haven't had before with the big iMac), but don't want to notice a horrible lag in performance if I get a weaker machine. The guy at PeachMac said that when it came to display the Retina (in the Macbook Pro, 13.3 in edition) made a high difference despite the lack of a dedicated graphics processor. I don't do heavy-duty, memory-intensive graphics work but about once every two years anyway, and my iMac only has 2GB of RAM to begin with. I just want to make sure that true designers who have switched from older iMac machines to Macbook Pro's (not the most expensive models) didn't regret it when trying to run Photoshop, et al.
(My absolute budget is "no more than $2,000" which is why I am considering the new iMac vs. the MacBook Pro 13.3" and getting a nice external display.)
Thanks!To run the new Studio you need Leopard and it will not spec'd to run on Tiger (Leopard 10.5.6 [specs here|http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/specs>) I have run it in Leopard and Snow Leopard, and both seem fairly similar, though I generally like my Leopard machines a bit more. Still breaking in the Snow Leopard and getting various kinks out of it. It seems I have some more little things go wrong in Snow Leopard.
Overall I like the upgrades in the Studio and you may just want to make another boot drive with clean Snow Leopard and the new Studio to work with until you feel you are happy with how it is performing. Bascially that is what I do until I am fully comfortable with the system and always have my rollback plan in place in case something goes awry and I need to get things done.... -
