Have we been Hosed?
I received my MPB today. I should be in the great joy mode. I'm not!! I have not opened the box. Yesterday I visited Adobe to purchase CS2 for it. Adobe has clearly stated they don't support the Intel dual core, nor do they intend to any time soon. I feel like I've had a knife in the back, or a sound kick below the waist! There was no mention of Rosetta emulation in the Apple ads. I'm a pro imager, and to discover my new Mac will run slower ( degraded performance in Adobes words)then a Power Book in PhotoShop, is extemely, extremely, depressing!! Cavet emptor of course, but for the love of Mike, I thought one could trust Apple, 4X, four times faster, as per the ads, cold day in ****. Talk about deceptive trade practices. I wanted this machine for the review of images at the time of a shoot. Real info appreciated, no vapor ware talk please, ( Universal Binarys are right around the corner, thats nice, but I have a shoot next Wed.), I already have the T-shirt.
Huge, huge, cringe... do i have to load XP in it to make it play ball in a timely manner in PShop?
Warm Regards

While I sympathize with developers, I don't buy it completely. Apple didn't ship "way ahead of schedule". They told developers in June 2005, that there would be intel based systems with customers before WWDC and passed code and machines. Everyone knows January MacWorld is the big event. Who in their right mind didn't think that Apple would try for that?
Adobe wants money for the conversion. Cool, I acknowledge that. But they won't be releasing for MORE than a year from now. Add the time they have already known and that's almost two years.
I'll cut them some slack because they have the really cool Lightroom beta already as a universal app. But I don't have any pity for the Photoshop development team. It's as one sided as they make it sound.
There is a more detailed explanation of Adobe's
situation here at an Adobe engineer's
personal blog.
Before anyone jumps all over them, read the more
informed comments after the blog entry, and note that
Adobe is not the only one who is challenged by the
transition. Microsoft Office is not there. You could
switch to Corel Painter, but it is not Universal
either, not even the new version they just
announced!
And Macworld magazine reported this about the new
version of Reason:
"Propellerhead indicated that the 3.0.5 release will
not be a Universal Binary application — to wit, a
version that works on both Intel and PowerPC-based
Macs. This is contrary to Apple’s recommendation to
Mac OS X software developers, but Propellerhead said
that Reason developed using Xcode — Apple’s compiler
— is slower on PowerPC systems than Reason using
Metrowerks’ CodeWarrior compiler."
Obviously, having major Intel apps ready when Apple
ships Intel Macs way ahead of schedule is not really
realistic for everybody. XCode is not doing it well
enough for everybody. Also, some of these major
companies want to hold back until you actually can
get Intel powered pro towers to test on.

I already have an itunes account on my laptop but have been setup on a mac and have songs that have not been purchased from the itunes store, I cannot get the songs from my iPhone onto my itunes account on the mac. how can I do this?
You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The iphone is not a backup/storage device. -

of times last year from one thing to another ...so I never go photoshop photography downloaded. I used the other one very little because I wasn't sure I should...gee
I hope that makes sense.

Sherri nicholasYou need to get the owner's manual for your Ford's bluetooth system to see how to put your system into discovery mode for the iPhone as well as the appropriate steps to take.
In addition, you should see if the iPhone is supported. -
How do I find all the purchased items on my iPhone? When I try to update the iPhone iOS while connected to my MacBook it says there are purchased items on the phone that have not been transferred to my iTunes library and that I should transfer them before updating.
Thanks. This seems to have worked easily.

i cannot sync my iphone music, i had used my i phone on another pc, which died. Ive managed to save the hard drive and transfer stuff across. I ended up smashing my phone and could update all other stuff on restore but cant sync any music. It is all grey at the top of the screen. Ive re installed itunes and cleared all phone data. Now when i bought a song on this computer from the apple store, i have just been sent an email that says Your Apple ID, was just used to purchase (a song ) by a computer that had not been previously associated with that apple id. So do i have to tell apple now somehow i am using itunes on this pc, and if so how? Because i authorised it and it said this pc was one of 5 aujthorised. if anyone can be of assistance then great!
I'm having a similar problem. I had previously (over a year ago) purchased 2 episodes of Law & Order. Then about 2 months ago, I purchased the 3rd season of Sons of Anarchy. When I downloaded these episodes to my iPad, about a dozen full seasons of various shows popped up, too. No money was removed from my iTunes account & theses particular shows aren't in my iTunes library on my desktop. I've tried every which way to delete them from my ipad, but can't. I went to the Apple store & they suggested I contact expresslane.apple.com for help. I submitted my problem, via email Friday, as they asked, but have not received any response. Any suggestions on how to get rid of these "phantoms?".

I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentioned since they were purchased. Is there any way to get the ipad music transferred to the computer?
And they were definitely purchased from the iTunes store, they show on the account's purchase history (Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes, or you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com) ?
You could potentially log into the account on that computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out to log out of your account, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option) and redownload them by clicking on the id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and Purchased on the popup :
But that will potentially tie that computer to that account for 90 days : Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
Or do you have a different computer that you could redownload them on and then copy them over to that computer via a flash drive or memory card, and then add them to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ? -
When trying to update phone, a message says i have purchased items that have not been transferred to iTunes, what is this?
We need a bit more information to help.
Are you trying to update your iPhone using iTunes on your computer? If so, did you make purchases through the iTunes Store or App Store on your iPhone, and fail to sync them with your computer? That is the likely meaning of what you are seeing. If this is true, the purchases would be added to iTunes in your computer before the upgrade proceeds. -
I have not been able to use iTunes for several months. Every time I open iTunes, it freezes by computer such that there is about a minutes between each action. I am running iTunes 11 on Mac OS 10.6.8 and have a computer with maxed out memory. Help! I can't access my iTunes content.

When I try to access my password (which I'm sure is correct - I wrote it down naughty gran!) it doesnt recognise my birthday! So I tried via 'send me an email' twice and I don't get one (I tried twice). Have I been hijacked?? (BTW I accessed the forum via another account, but I'm annoyed cos I cant access photostream and anxious cos the other one is linked to my credit card)
Start with the most basic thing that you can try. Unplug the router from power for about 30 seconds, and restart the printer and the iPad and plug the router back into power.

Hi!
I purchased my AppleTV in Miami, but I live in Argentina.
I have not been able to get my device running correctly, and altough I've read tons of things online, I still have no solution to my problem.
Here's the thing: after everything's plugged in and ON, I see the Apple logo briefly, then the TV displays a sign that says no signal, check pwoer cords and power source.
But everything is plugged in and connected properly, otherwise, I doubt I'd be seeing the apple logo, right?
I tried changing the HDMI cable, reversing the ends, switching ports, hard resetting the ATV, and trying a different TV. No luck.
I read there is some issue with Samsung TVs, and most LED and LCD tvs down here are Samsung.
On the other hand, I cannot return it or exchange it, since I bought it in the states.
Oh! One of the tvs I tried it on displays a little sign that reads "connected at 1280x720 @60hz", and only THEN, goes to the "no signal" sign.
Please!!! I am being driven up the walls here.... HELP!!Try this:
Change the Apple TV resolution:
Press and hold the Menu and Up button on your Apple Remote for six seconds.
The Apple TV will automatically cycle to the next resolution at approximately 20 second intervals.
Press Play on the Apple Remote to keep the current resolution or Select to manually cycle to the next resolution. -
I have an old iPhone 3Gs with software version 4.3.5, I am trying to use it again, and it works fine, but I have not been able to update the software. Every time I try, I get the following message:
"there was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone, the network connection could not be established". This happens even though I have a working internet connection.
Besides that, all the other functions work properly, even synchronize apps and library.
Will I be able to update the software?look around the forum tons of people repport that they can't update
makes you suspect that apples update servers can't meet the depand of too many users

All the cd's I have bought over the years, have all been uploaded into iTunes on my Windows PC. I have tried just copying my iTunes folder across to my new iMac, but it doesn't recognise all of the music (but it does recognise some?). Can someone please tell me the best way to transfer my iTunes library from my PC to my iMac?
Thanks, CarolineCopy the entire /My Music/iTunes/ folder from your PC to /Music/ on your Mac.

I am trying to upgrade my iPhone via my macbook but the following message keeps coming up and the download does not work
"There are purchased items on the iPhone “Mark Price’s iPhone” that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this"

Mark Priceokay I've done everything regarding the transfer process (via file>transfer purchases) and syncing, so everything on my iPhone device seems to have been transferred to my iMac... however, I still get that message ("There are purchased items on the iPhone..."), trying to upgrade the iOS Have tried several times the same process of hitting transfer purchases via file, but nothing seems to make that message go away! Would have been nice to know which files I actually do need to transfer, which I don't get any info on of course...
Starting to get really annoying this thing.. Any smart suggestions what's going on? -
