eBay, if you are lucky. On the other hand: a used copy is probably more expensive than a new used Mac from eBay...

    This is a copy of ONEof the keys  in the registry I changed  as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR  software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others  they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so  I downloaded the software and installed again.
    Sorry, just this minute went to insert image  and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content  is not allowed?.
    The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr  SiRem GEARAspiWDN.

  • Is it still possible to buy version 3?

    Hi,
    I've been testing out Audition5.5 and it seems so that it really screws up the workflows we've used with version 3.
    For example, the Export Multitrack doesn't remember its settings anymore as it did with version 3. Every time I export I have to change settings in couple of dialogs and popups which is very annoying.
    Is it still possible to buy version 3?
    Regards,

    When commercial users buy software, it's quite common to get only one physical copy but licence it to have it used by as many people at the same time as they need.  The number of concurrent users they licence for is the number of "seats".
    When the company I worked for about 12 years ago got a contract to provide radio news to a group of clients, we bought a particular brand of software (alas, not Cool Edit--I lost that battle because CEP wasn't as clever as we needed in a network environment) and had only one disk of the programme but licenced it for 7 seats (2 self op studios plus 5 work stations for the journalists to edit their own stories).

  • Is it still possible to buy a linux version of apple shake ? if yes how much does it cost

    Hi,
    is it still possible to buy a apple shake license for linux platform ?
    If yes how much does it cost and where do i get one.
    Thanks in advance
    Vijin

    Shake is dead, morte, EOL, fini, done. Apple came, saw, conquered and left the arena and pulled the plug leaving you SOL.
    fwiw - Shake 4 still runs on current OSX versions ( or so I have been informed by knowledgeable sources ...)

  • If I buy Logic pro, how many computers can I install it on?

    if I buy Logic pro, how many computers can I install it on? will the spp-store let me download again if get new computer?

    The license agreement for the DVD version of Logic is different... and  only allows for you to install it on two computers (Specifically one desktop and one laptop) In additiont you are supposed to only actually run Logic on one of them at a time and not both at the same time...
    So in your instance, you should, according to your license agreement, remove Logic from your older Macbook in order to install it on your new MacBook Pro....
    However, if I were you, I would contact Apple to confirm this as there is some discussion as to if this license agreement is still in force or if Logic, once it is updated via the App Store Update routines in Mountain Lion, then is covered by the App Store agreement which allows unlimited installs of Logic Pro on any computer you own...
    It's a very grey area... and there is nothing stopping you from installing Logic on all three Macs except for that license agreement as the physical check that used to be present in Logic Pro, to prevent you using it on more than one Mac at a time, was removed a while back... so read into that, what you will.
    Again, to be absolutely sure, legally speaking, contact Apple and ask them for guidance... (and if possible get it in writing from them, if they give you the go ahead to install and use Logic Pro on a third computer)

  • Thinking Of Buying Logic Pro, A Few Questions.....

    Hi guys,
    I have recently just bought a 20" Intel imac and am seriously thinking of selling my current setup to buy Logic Pro 7;
    Current Setup
    Reason 3.0 (Def Sell)
    Mbox 2 + Pro Tools 7 LE (Def Sell)
    Roland V-Synth XT (May Keep)
    MPC 1000 (Def Keeping)
    The reason that I have listed my main components is so that you can advice me as to whether its worth me going through the hassle of changing, what I will lose / gain (as I understand that Logic comes with alot of built in instruments etc but may not have certain features of Pro Tools LE, i.e Beat Detective etc, but I am sure its prob better overall).
    I haven't really used Pro Tools LE yet so changing DAW isn't a problem from the standpoint of learning something new as I haven't yet learnt LE.
    I understand that I will need a new external sound card as well (like the Mbox) so any reccomendations on that would also be great.
    I also understand that Logic Pro 7.2 (the intel compatible version isn't out for a month or so) but thats fine as thus far my newly purchased Mbox 2 isn't compatible anyway and I am happy just getting my head round the new operating system for the MPC for the next month anyway
    So in a nutshell, to the Logic users out there, whats it like, pros / con's etc? Also what main differences are there between Pro and Express?
    Im gonna try googling a few reviews online but I have always trusted peoples opinions on here more so than magazine reviews so thanks for any advice in advance.
    Cheers, Nathan
    P.S, sorry for the long post and amount of questions but this is going to be a big change for me and just want to make sure I don't dive in head first and then regret it.

    I do all sorts of music (R&B, Hip hop, salsa, reggae and all that )
    and logic has never been easier
    I see most of friends using cubase with reason and its a pain to what they go through
    example
    open cubase then open reason
    save cubase as a project then save reason as well
    rewire then start recording both together requires more CPU than having 10-20 EXS24 as plugins in logic
    after you are done save cubae then save reason
    when ever you need to go back again open cubase the open reason before your song will play and sometimes if you make a mistake then reason will change the tempo when you launch then you gotta remember what the original tempo was
    worse thing ever is if you wanna continue at another studio you gotta make sure the person has both reason and cubase then the whole open and open starts again
    I was always bored each time i went there
    I gave him some bass line and old school samples and it wouldn't match his tempo
    but in logic i can change the tempo and it it matches (its not 100% but for hip hop with short samples like 8bars chipmunk samples is perfect
    even Kanye West feels Logic and he has been know to be the ultimate champ of sampling
    but don't throw or sell any of your analogs or external synth
    alotta people will pay alot to get em again ( trust )
    all i can say is with MPC and Logic, there is nothing you can do when it comes to hip hop
    alotta cats are on Fruityloops I still use it for drums sometimes

  • Never owned a Mac, thinking of buying a Mac Pro, could use some advice...

    Hey guys,
    I know this was a lot to read, but I sincerely hope someone will take the time to answer my questions:
    As the title of my post implies I've never owned a Mac in my life. I've always built my own desktops and usually gone to HP or Dell for my laptops. I'm approaching that time again where my custom-built desktop is looking outdated and I'm getting the upgrade itch. I'm looking at all the parts I need to order to build a computer and I can't help but think I'm older now with a full-time job and a one year old daughter in the house. Do I really want to go through the hassle of building a desktop from scratch again? Not really. So I started evaluating things a bit. As I get older I’m really just getting sick and tired of Microsoft’s antics (Vista was a huge disappointment for me) so I decided this could be the year for me to take the Mac plunge.
    Now I’m an IT guy, so I have a pretty atypical setup at home. I’m currently running both Windows and Linux on all my computers. Rather than dual boot or use virtualization software I have a pretty intricate system in which I use a product called Acronis Trueimage to experiment with operating systems. What I do is perform a a clean install on an operating system, tweak it as needed for security and to use resources on my LAN than back up the customized OS install to a server a an image file. I have pre-built images for XP, Vista, Ubuntu and OpenSuSE that I can roll out to one of my machines in an average of 15 minutes whenever I get the urge to switch operating systems. I also serve all my data off a NAS box, so since data and OS are kept separate on the network I don’t have to worry about erasing something when I swap between Linux and Windows (as loading an image literally destroys the previous OS install).
    So you can see I’m pretty highly specialized. I even have things down to the point to where I have custom images for specific purposes. For instance I have one XP image customized for development, one XP image customized for gaming, etc. Naturally if I got the Mac Pro I’d like to have the freedom to create a similar set of custom OS deployment images (Windows, Linux and OSX) for it as well. In researching the Mac Pro I have some concerns my current system might not work if I go that route. Am I correct in assuming that in order to run an alternative operating system on a Mac I’ll have to run boot camp or something like it? Or upon unboxing my Mac and tweaking Leopard will I be able to use disk imaging software to make a backup image of my preinstalled Leopard hard drive and then do a clean install of Windows XP or Ubuntu and set it up to function like a PC? I guess I’m asking if it’s possible (now that Macs are Intel-based) to run Windows or Linux exclusively on the Mac hardware?
    Also I have some concerns about the proprietary nature of the Mac platform. From what I can gather in my research it seems the hardware is pretty locked in. One area that has me really concerned is gaming. I pretty much use Ubuntu exclusively at home for productivity and web surfing. However I still like to load that XP image every now and then to play some games on the LAN with my buddies. I’m not a fan of virtualizing for gaming because of the obvious performance hit you take, so I’d have to be able to run Windows XP free and clear. Also I checked Nvidia’s site and I see no OSX drivers listed there for their cards. Under the Windows platform they are always releasing driver updates to squeeze more game performance out of your card. What if I want to upgrade my video card? How do drivers work on OSX? Does Apple just integrate drivers for just a few specific video cards into the OS? Will I be stuck only able to pick from a handful of video cards approved by Apple?
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer advice!

    Hi Zeus
    I may be able to answer some of your questions. And sorry in advance if this sounds like yet another of those "religious conversion" stories
    I'm a software developer/architect, mostly doing Microsoft .NET/C#/Web Services coding. I'd been a loyal Microsoft guy since I started on the original IBM PC back in the 80's. Like a lot of people (or so it seems) I just got fed up with Microsoft's high-handed and self-important ways. More importantly, the company always seemed to be lagging behind technically. Looking at beta versions of Vista did not bode well for the future - it just seemed awful. When Vista came out it it was the last straw - I just could not get enthusiastic about this bloated, slow, mess of an operating system. I really hated it. Still do. Even with a top-spec machine, Vista didn't run in the snappy, responsive way it I thought it should. Nothing seemed well thought out.. yuck!
    Then, by chance, I was staying for a few days with somebody who had a Mac. Now, for years and years I not even considered Macs as remotely serious machines. My only experience of them was in the late 80's when somebody at work had one. He took delight in pushing a floppy disc into the machine so that it would respond "Ah, it's so big!". Great, just a toy. Not for serious programming work. So, encountering Mac OS X Tiger on my friend's iMac was something of a shock. It was so responsive, clean and elegant. When you turned it on it only took about 30 seconds or so for the thing to be ready for use, etc, etc.
    Long story short, I bought an iMac, then a newer, bigger, faster iMac, then a MacBook Pro and now I have a Mac Pro. I still have to work with Windows to do my .NET-related day job. But 95% of the time I work on the Mac using various VMWare virtual machines. I can switch between Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP in a few seconds and still be working in a Mac environment. And the performance of running Windows inside VMWare is even better than on my dedicated top-spec Windows laptop! I have a selection of virtual machines to choose from and, because these virtual machines are just files, I can back them up, revert to saved copies, etc. I've tried Bootcamp but it's much less convenient and performance inside the virtual machines is never an issue (although I don't do any gaming). So, you could keep virtual machines on your NAS box or local Mac hard drive.
    With regard to graphics drives, etc. I've never had any problems whatever in this respect. For example, when I installed Windows XP on VMWare it automatically recognised all my hardware (including some obscure audio interfaces, USB-based MIDI interfaces, etc.) and made it available. I must admit that when I was new to the Mac I expected to have driver issues, but never have had... So, my guess is that you'll be able to run all your Windows and Linux distros on the Mac without too many problems.
    You mention Apple's hardware as being "locked-in". I don't think that's the case. Certainly the consumer Mac models like the iMac can't be upgraded (by you or me) internally, expect for memory. The Mac Pro though is very easy to upgrade - though there may be some limitations with regard graphics cards.
    Re your questions about graphics card drivers. Yes, these come with OS X in just the same as as with Windows. Because I've also used the card that comes "with the box" this has not been an issue for me. However, unless you get a Mac Pro you can't swap-in your existing graphics card. And even then I think you may find restrictions. However, other, more knowledgeable Mac users on this forum may have other thoughts.
    Overall though, the experience of using the Mac in terms of software is very much the reverse of Windows - the OS is very open and well documented. It really is an IT person's dream machine - so much to fiddle around with (particularly if you know anything about Unix!). Unlike Microsoft who charge a FORTUNE for their development tools, Apple give them to you for free. And very good they are too!
    Finally, one bit of advice. If you are considering buying a new Mac, join the Apple Developer Connection scheme as a Select member. It'll cost you around $400 to join but they give you a hardware discount for Apple-store purchased items that will save you a ton of $$$'s - absolutely definitely worth doing.
    Hope this helps (and good luck)!

  • So im trying to buy logic pro and just recently put enough money in gift cards on my account but every time i click buy app and go to billing info and then click ok it just shoots me to the first screen and did not charge for app how can i buy it ?

    so im trying to buy logic pro and just recently put enough money in gift cards on my account but every time i click buy app and go to billing info and then click ok it just shoots me to the first screen and did not charge for app how can i buy it ?

    This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
    So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

  • Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

    Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

    The power button for the Trackpad is on the right hand end of the battery case. Press that button to initiate the pairing process. On the top of the Trackpad just above the power button is a tiny green light (you probably cannot see it unless it is lighted). That light will indicate ehther or not the Trackpad is discoverable. If the Trackpad has discoverable the green light will blink on and off. If it does not pair within 3 minutes you will have to press the power button again to re-initiate the pairing process. Once your Trackpad has paired, you can just leave it on and it will pair automatically when you reboot your Mac.
    If you are having problems pairing, try turning off any other Bluetooth devices within 30 or so feet of your Mac mini. That includes other Computers, iPhones, iPads, etc. that may be in the area. Once your Trackpad has pairedwith your mini, you don't have to be concerned about other Bluetooth devices.
    One other hint, I find that although the Wireless Trackpad does not eat batteries as fast as the Magic Mouse it still uses more than the Wireless Keyboard. It is a good idea to keep a supply of AA batteries around. I have used Apple's Rechargable batteries, but found they did not last that long before needing to be recharged. I have had the best battery life from Duracell Quantum batteries.

  • Can I buy Logic Pro 9 on its own?...

    Or only as part of the Logic Studio suite? The Apple Store website doesn't seem to have an option for buying Pro 9 on its own.
    What are the main differences between Pro and Logic Express.

    Think of Logic Studio as buying only Logic Pro 9, but getting a whole bunch of extras for free.
    And it's still half the price, and ten times the content, of what Logic Pro used to be on it's own.
    And Logic Pro, came with all the optional extras which used to make the full Logic Platinum twice as much as Logic Pro was.
    When I was first starting out, I was lucky enough to sort of intern at a studio, where I composed for commercials and very bad corporate videos and such. I was barely 18 at the time, and among other gear, the hallowed music production workstation I was trained on to do this work was the Fairlight series 3. By then the Fairlight was already a bit past its prime (this was the early 90s), but just to make a point - the thing cost like 100 grand. And was significantly less capable than one instance of the EXS 24. In fact, the laptop I use now, does more than everything we could do in that whole studio back then, outboard gear included. OK I'm not counting the mics and preamps. Nor the acoustically designed control room or recording rooms. But you get the point.
    Ok I sound like grandpa going on about you young whipper-snappers, you have no idea how good you have it etc.. But I'm a pro musician only in my mid 30s, so it wasn't really that long ago.
    499 bucks for everything I had access to in a multi-million dollar studio back then? Sounds like a more or less reasonable deal to me.

  • I've never used a mac before

    i've never had a mac before so i'm only familiar with windows. i'm getting a laptop for college and i'm considering buying a mac. a couple of my friends have them and they only say good thigns about them. however my dad is really hesitant on me buying a mac because he's afraid i'll need a program that's not compatible with the software. also he's worried that my plug-ins like printer/digital camera won't work. and he didn't know if they ran all types of cd and dvds that are on the market. overall he's just a worry-wart but maybe if there's good answers to all these questions i'll be able to reassure him. so for everyone who has used a mac what do you think?

    i've never had a mac before so i'm only familiar with
    windows. i'm getting a laptop for college and i'm
    considering buying a mac. a
    A MacBook Pro can run both OS X and Windows using Boot Camp
    however my dad is really hesitant on me buying a mac
    because he's afraid i'll need a program that's not
    compatible with the software.
    There are usually a Mac alternatives for most software.
    As the MacBook Pro can run Windows if push came to shove you could use Boot Camp to install Windows and run the needed Windows software that way.
    also he's worried that
    my plug-ins like printer/digital camera won't work.
    Generally cameras and printers work fine with the Mac. Check the printer and camera manufacturers' website for Mac drivers.
    and he didn't know if they ran all types of cd and
    dvds that are on the market.
    A Mac can run virtually all CDs and DVDs that any generic PC can.
    If a PC has written a proprietary format CD (ie a packet CD) then only it and Macs (and other PCs for that matter) won't be able to read it.
    overall he's just a
    worry-wart but maybe if there's good answers to all
    these questions i'll be able to reassure him. so for
    everyone who has used a mac what do you
    think?
    There are lots of benefits to running a Mac.

  • Buy Logic Pro X, computer crashes, can I download it to a new computer?

    Say I buy Logic Pro X, download it to my computer, and my computer then crashes. If I get new Mac, can I download Logic Pro X from my account without having to pay for it again?

    Yes

  • How can I buy logic pro 9?

    Hello!
    I have been running Logic Express on a dual G5 pro for a long time, and have had a used "late 2007" intel Mac Pro on standby for a few years. Time hasn't permitted the rebuild of my studio until now.
    Now I want to buy a later version of Logic Pro for the intel mac pro than the Logic Express I had. Logic Pro X requires Mac OS X 10.8, which in turn requires an "early 2008" intel Mac Pro or later, so I can't buy Logic Pro X. But Logic Pro 9 was sold through the App Store - which only offers Logic Pro X. I can't buy a used Logic Pro 9, nor can I buy a new one.
    How on earth do I go about buying any version of Logic Pro, when my mac is older than five years?

    It's not available on the App store anymore, but you can buy it on ebay for next to nothing since the launch of LPX.

  • I Am from Brasil and december last year i bought a non contract iphone in usa but it still locked, now apple is sending non contract unlocked iphone, next week i am going to usa and would like to know if it is possible to pay and unlock my iphone in usa

    I Am from Brasil and december last year i bought a non contract iphone in usa but it still locked, now apple is sending non contract unlocked iphone, next week i am going to usa and would like to know if it is possible to pay and unlock my iphone in usa

    A no-contract sales price does not mean unlocked.
    Apple is now selling an officially unlocked iPhone in the U.S. which has nothing whatsoever to do with AT&T unlocking iPhones. It is up to the carrier and the carrier only to officially unlock an iPhone that was sold as carrier locked with the carrier - in this case sold as carrier locked with AT&T. This may change one day, but at the present time AT&T does not unlock an iPhone for any reason or under any circumstances.
