Hi, Please does anyone know of good Apps on MacBook Air for children with Down Syndrome for learning? - Many thanks :)

Hi, have bought a MacBook Air second hand which is wonderful, but learning apps for children (especially those with extra learning difficulty) seem to be only accessible on Ipads..... grrr!.... Please has anyone found any good ones on their MacBook air?  Thanking you for any help...

I'm not current in what's out there, and, depending upon the developmental age of your child it would be hard to offer something suitable. However if there are elementary schools in your area who use Apple Computers their Assistive Technology department/specialist or Special Education Department/specialist should be able and willing to help you.
I suggest you contact the public schools near you... you might even qualify for an educators discount on software you buy.

  • Does anyone know a good app for mastering music?

    I like mixing music, and I really want a simple solution to mastering on iPad. At my church, we have Adobe Audition but I don't have easy access to that. I need something on iPad.

    Garageband plus AU plugins, such as isotope OZone, etc. This is the cheapest.

  • Does anyone know when Lightroom5 will be upgraded to be compatible with my new Nikon D750? Thanks

    If someone can just tell me when Lightroom5 will be compatible with RAW images from my new Nikon D750. I have tried chat, phone and now here. Very frustrated first time Adobe user. I purchased this product to be able to develop RAW images to find out its not compatible with my camera.

    kathrynpp and all,
    Native Lightroom support for the D750 was added in the Lightroom 5.7 update released this evening.

    Get a Virtual Macine software program, Parallels, VMware Fusion or VirtualBox, and install XP in a virtual machine.
    You can't install XP in a Boot Camp Partition with Lion or Mt Lion, only Win 7.

    If restoring using your backup didn't work, you'll have to save as much of your data as you can (import your photos to your computer, sync your contacts and other data with iCloud, email things like Notes and Voice Memos to yourself, sync with iTunes to transfer all your purchases, etc.) and then restore it as new without using your backup.

    That's only for the iPhone 5. On the 4 and 4S, they can repair the back glass in store for $30. They will not replace the display on a 4 or 4S. They must replace the entire phone. Replacing the display on them requires disassembling the entire phone, which they will not do in store.

    I'm traveling to London for the summer, does anyone know a good power adapter/converter for my MacBook Pro? I know there's the Travel Adapter Kit but it's only for iPhones, iPods, iPad, etc.

    Apple World Travel Adapter Kit
    The World Travel Adapter Kit includes the Apple USB Power Adapter, USB Cable and six interchangeable AC adapter plugs for use with iPod, iPhone, and iPad. The adapter plugs can also be used with Apple MagSafe Power Adapters, Portable Power Adapters, and AirPort Express, so you can plug your power adapter into most electrical outlets around the world.

    Ps exuse My english hope you'll understand 

    The only way to get songs on an iPhone is by synching the songs from your iTunes library, or purchasing them from the iTunes store on your phone.
    You can search yourself for sites that offer free music.

  • Does anyone know how good the SAMPSON USB mic is compared to...

    Does anyone know how good the SAMPSON USB mic is compared to having a dedicated audio interface with lets say a good condenser mic?
    I am going to be doing some vocals and need a very good quality recording.
    It just seems pretty simple right now to use a high quality USB.....
    Rather than getting an interface (which I will be getting down the road)
    but how "high" is the quality of the Sampson USB mic? Say even compared to
    an AKG condenser?? Will I get 90% of the way there compared to an AKG mic and an dedicated audio interface (like the firepod or m-audio-410)
    and also if anyone knows will the difference in audio interfaces affect the actual recording quality by a great difference?
    thanks, technoreid

    I have a Samson C01U USB Studio Condenser mic that I use most of the time.
    PRO
    To be honest it's really a lot of bang for the buck (about $90 at Sam Ash Music) and incredibly simple to use.
    It's well-built (the screen is very rugged, and it has a good amount of heft to it.
    Given that GB 3 has a lot of decent vocal presets (and software outboard equipment) in it now (with radio/podcast settings and voice over stuff) you can get it to sound pretty good. In that sense, I think it is an ideal podcast or voice over mic.
    It's easy to use, just like GB itself. I am a BIG fan of using equipment that is intuitive and does not thwart the creative process, and the Samson fits the bill. Pull it out of its storage bag; plug in the USB cord into the mic and then into the USB port of your Mac and Voila! you're in business.
    CON
    You are limited by the length of a USB chord, whereas XLR cables into a firewire analog to digital piece of outboard gear will have XLR in, and XLR cables are the standard for long distances mic usage.
    One track, mono at a time. There is no way (that I know of) to effectively do simultaneous stereo recording. But if you are using GB as a composition tool (as I do) you do most of your instruments in GB and only vocals (and maybe guitars) live and only one at a time.
    You get what you pay for. Is the Samson C01U as good as a Neumann U87 into a tube-based Analog to digital preamp? Is it the way I would record vocals for a major record release? No. But the difference isn't like listening to a scratched 78 rpm shellack record versus a digital recording either. For most applications, the difference is minimal. How much? I don't have the testing instruments to quantify.
    But then again, there's something to be said for spending $90 versus $3,800 (SRP) for a U87 and $2,300 (SRP) for a PreSonus ADL-600 Stereo Hi Volt Tube Mic Preamp......

  • Question does anyone know a great app to get find and download free books instead of ibooks

    Question does anyone know a great app to get find and download free books instead of  using ibooks?

    wanting everything in a single resource is too much to ask. You should split your query into three:
    1) how to make platform games
    2) how to make games in a windowed environment
    3) how to do games in applets
    For the first, that is quite difficult to put in a book as a generic topic. What you are looking for is how to make games, with that knowledge you should be able to figure out how to do a platform game. That is quite an involving task. You will have to find out:
    1.1) how to efficiently blit graphics
    1.2) 2D collision detection
    1.3) framerate independent animations and movement
    1.4) the "game loop"
    as a start.
    Making games in a windowed environment is not much different than fullscreen games actually; only the size of the screen is different. Other than that there shouldn't be much difference between the two, other than at the hardware level which you will probably not have to worry about too much in your beginning game development endeavors.
    How to do a game in an applet: it is not much different from doing a game in a regular Swing application. I would start there and then later figure out how to do it in an applet. Using a Swing timer and custom painting on a JPanel should get you far enough, I would think.
    For later projects you may want to look into the Slick library, which you can find here: http://slick.cokeandcode.com/ . I wouldn't start there though, start simpler with Swing only.

    And the fact that it's was a vertical, slow-moving, dead-tree, subscription-driven, ad-based business model has nothing at all to do with it... Mac mags died a long time ago, for good reason - get over it
    I guess I don't really agree with that. There are still a few Mac magazines around. Interestingly, they are often magazines from the UK. I find it funny that there isn't a big enough market in the US to support homegrown Mac magazines, but they continue to print them in the UK with a much smaller market, and ship them over here. But I digress. I do think the points you cite for the demise of Mac magazines are all incorrect. The same system works just fine for any number of other magazines. The difference is the reader...
    Google is your friend.
    Now I greatly disagree. Not only is Google not your friend, but it (or rather the internet - it gets hard to tell the two apart anymore) is turning into a massive source of disinformation. There was a time when programmers were expected to read the manual, read magazines, and try things out in order to figure out how to do something. Now, we are expected to just Google it.
    Well, I do Google things on a regular basis and I find the advice dispensed to be wrong or otherwise useless more than half the time. Google is on the way out. Information networks are the wave of the future. That is why people come here. Apple Discussions is more reliable than Google.

  • Does anyone know a good converter from quicktime movies to dvd format?

    Does anyone know a good converter from quicktime movies to dvd format?

    I'm guessing that your using One Step DVD . This will only work with one movie at a time.
    Create a new project and all you should have to do is drag your movies from your movie folder onto your iDVD project. You can add as many movies as you like but obviously you can't exceed the maximum total DVD size.
    Encoding can take a long time depending on the original file format, but you should be able to use pretty much any file format you can play with Quicktime.

    thank you
    I've never heard of a good, current book on PHP which is
    free. You'll find
    hundreds of free tutorials and articles, but usually when
    information gets
    collected into book form, people need to be paid and it's not
    going to be
    free.
