I have just gone from PCM to MacBook Pro retina and would like to now go to imac. Is it worth waiting for retina on imac and when will it arrive

I have just gone from PCM to MacBook Pro retina and would like to now go to imac. Is it worth waiting for retina on imac and when will it arrive

I'm not Klaus but can give an opinion on this part:
As a Mac man yourself do you think that the retina display is worth waiting for?
I'm 65, have used Macs since 1989, and struggle with displays, cataracts, and bifocals. What I've seen of the Retinas in stores is that text size gets sacrificed for image quality. There are quite a few complaints about Retina in the MacBook Pro forums about not being able to increase the size of menu text without it getting fuzzy.
My iMac 27-inch is about a year old and I can set the display res from its default of 2560x1440 to 1920x1080 and everything is sharp. I understand that handy trick will not work for either the older hi-res macbook pros or the Retinas, so I don't expect it for any other Macs.
Speculation on Apple policy and new product releases is actiually not allowed by the Terms of Use around here so I doubt you'll get an answer to the "when" part. Anyone who does answer "when" is either guessing it up or violating a non-disclosure agreement! Apple plays its cards close to its vest and we average users only know "when" when Apple posts the announcement.

I have just returned from a business trip to China and my Macbook is not well. My internet connection is very slow and drops out intermittently. Is there a utility I can run which might clean it up.

Hello,
I have very similar problem. Suddenly Firefox stopped work - It was working few days after ver. 4 update. I was looking everywhere for some solution but nothing worked.
- uninstalled firewall - did not worked
- added full exception for Firefox into the firewall - did not worked
- Firefox reinstall - did not worked
- Firefox complete reinstall (registry included) - did not worked
- IPv6 diseabling - did not worked
- diferent proxy options (no proxy, system proxy, autodetect proxy) - did not worked
- new firefox profile - did not worked
- complete coockies, history... deleted - did not worked
- there is only one solution which partly works - I have used public proxy addresses for Firefox but the ping is (750ms), down/up (0.8MB/0.2MB originaly (10MB/2MB) and yes I have tried different proxy server from different countries from my included.
- IE is working perfectly and without proxy
- other companies browser - did not worked too
- only IE is working
- I have used three different malware, trojans, spyware, anti-virus programs and nothing
It seems to me as hopeless situation or very clever move from Microsoft, I am forced to use IE - at least this works
Any ideas, solutions?
System Windows 7, firewall Comodo Internet security
Thanks everyone for the help

I have Elements 10. It doesn't handle RAW. It also doesn't allow more than one Fine JPG to be downloaded at a time. Can this be fixed with a download, or am I stuck to upgrade to Elements 13?

Yes, it does.
FAQ: Will Photoshop Elements work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?
It can handle the raw files covered by the ACR 6.7 version.
For newer cameras, you can use the free Adobe DNGconverter to batch convert a folder into the DNG raw format that PSE10 can read and edit.
(see the link in the upper document)
Fine JPG to be downloaded at a time.
All versions of Elements can open many jpegs at the same time, and the organizer lets you import as many as you want?

I have just migrated from ibook

sorry if i'm behind the times, but i just used time machine/migration to set up new (2nd hand) macbook pro from my old i'book
as i was curious about the new computer before i was ready to migrate, i set up an account in my name. bit later on i did the migration using same name/passwords. the migration would not allow me to use the same user name so i called the new one: xxxxx old. (as it was from old computer)
So now i have 2 admin accounts, how do i know which is the most 'powerful', in terms of hierarchy, or are they the same, does it matter?
Thanks

Admin accounts are all the same.
In general, on a new Mac you should use Setup Assistant to migrate from your old MacBook. It will pull across your User Accounts, settings, applications, etc.

I have just migrated from 10.5 to 10.8.3 - Do I need to install Pages 09?

Last night I used Migration Assistant to tranfer everything from my crammed Mac Book 10.5 to my new MBP 10.8.3
Today I wanted to check my many PhD documents in Pages all still worked. They open but they are invisible. You can highlight everything which shows the text (white in lilac!?) but can't reformat or do anything. I can't type or edit at all.
Is this because I have transferred Pages 08? If I install Pages 09 will they be miraculously open-able?
I am panicking because this is essentially three years of work currently trapped on my old MB! Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks so much, but when I try and run the update installer I get the message
'An eligible Pages application was not found in the location /Applications'
That's a sign that the iWork applications are no longer in the iWork '08 folder in the Applications folder. The same applies to iWork '06 & iWork '09 installed from the retail DVD or downloaded trial. Iif you're not running the latest versions of the iWork apps installed from a retail box or the downloaded trial & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. If you installed from the downloaded trial or the retail box, they must be in the iWork ''08 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08. If it doesn't have the '08 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

I have just upgraded from the old G5 to a new one, however I can't log and capture on the newest FCPs off my Sony Z1.. please help, deadline coming soon

I have recently just upgraded from my old white powerpc G5 which did not allow me to edit in HD and I had to down convert all my footage to edit in DV. I have bought the newest FCP studio, and I had to order a new firewire as my new desktop does not take the old one that I had before. The new firewire that I have which is the only one that fits into my iMac from my sony Z1 is a Firewire IEEE1394-B (800) 9 pin to 4 pin .
My Mac : Processor- 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory- 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
All my settings are set to HD and the ilink convert is off, and VCR is set to auto. Why is it not reading my Z1???
Please someone help me, i have been using FCP for years now and have not come across this problem before...

camera not recognised in system profiler just says maximum speed up to 800mb/sec
still says "unable to locate the following external devices:
HDV (1440x1080) 50i" in FCP when i try easy setup
Try a different cable first ... it might be a connection problem
VCR HDV/DV- Auto
Component- 1080i/576i
i.link convert- off
down convert letter box
A/V-DV OUT- off
Bit of guesswork here - haven't used a Sony in a while - but try these:
• HDV/DV to HDV
• downconvert off/none?

What happens??? What are your system specs??

Drag and drop images into anchored frames -- can this be done with the images imported by reference?

My company bought a product from another company and the only manuals files that came with it were in pdf format. I am currently grabbing text out in Acrobat, then pasting and reformatting it in FrameMaker. Boring and tedious. . . .
Eventually I get to the point of importing the illustrations. There are *hundreds* of them. As a rule, we import the files by reference, to keep the chapter size smaller and to be able to double click the image to open it for modification.
However, I can drag an image file from the folder window and drop it into an anchored frame. Oooh, this is fast--way faster than all the mousework that goes into clicking file>import>file>[choosing the file then hitting the import button].
But, dang it, that copies the image into the FrameMaker file. No double-click opening. Giant fm. file size. Mad boss, shaking an SOP standards sheet in my face.
So, my question: Is there a way to import an image *by reference* by dragging and dropping them into an anchored frame?
Thanks, folks.

I tried the RTF route and, in addition to getting the body text I wanted, got paragraph after paragraph of the page numbers, the illustration text, the header and footer verbiage, all randomly placed between body text paragraphs.
I did the same file twice, once by saving as RTF and deleting unwanted stuff, then repairing body paragraphs (each line of which is a seperate paragraph in the RTF file) and also by sweeping only the necessary text, then copying and pasting it page by page. The second method was a bit faster and less frustrating. Not to say that it isn't slow and frustrating in itself, but just a bit less. Less errors, too, with the second method.
Bummer about importing by reference. I don't suppose there's a way to set up recorded actions with hotkeys, is there? Like in Illustrator?
Thanks, Art.

You can't merge account together but you can transfer your UK account into a Canadian one. You won't loose any previous purhcases by chnaging countries.

Other than iMovie, GB always incorporates the audio files into the GB package. So just save or move the GB project to the external drive, and you're done - anything you import, edit or record will be saved to the external drive.

I have a Zoom Q3 HD video/audio recorder, that records me playing the drums. How can I add the sound of the song I am playing to to this audio/video mix. Can this be done with Garage Band or iMovie?

Can this be done with the SDK ??

Hey
im looking some advice. im looking to develop an application that does the following.
1. Take an image file any format (jpeg/bitmap/gif....etc)
2. Convert the image to 7x10 dpi
3. Change the dimensions of the image to restore aspect ratio
4. Pass the image to illustrator to vectorise the image and change the resolution of it to a custom size.
5. Save the resulting image as any format (jpeg/bitmap/gif.... etc)
I have pretty much covered steps 1,2,3 myself.
I would like to know can steps 4&5 be done easily, ie does illustrator allow east integration with custom applications ?
Could anyone provide a brief logic on how this would be done. i have not yet subscribed for the sdk, but will do if it can be done.
Can anyone think of an alternative solution ??
Thanks alot
R

>Can anyone think of an alternative solution ??
You can accomplish this with the scripting capabilities.
