Hi there, I have noticed that the color (how it handles brightness) of my own iMac is very different to that of other iMac's. My machine will also not let me create a calibrated version through the system preferences either, an error ocurrs.

Hi there, I have noticed that the color/ brightness of my iMac is very different to that of other iMac's. My machine will also not let me create a calibrated color version through the system preferences either, an error ocurrs. Any pointers on how this issue could be fixed? THanks.

Mac and Mac models are picky about the RAM the Mac needs to see and use.
As you have found out, the 1067 speed RAM will not work in your year and model iMac.
You need the 1333 speed RAM.
If, you can return the RAM for a refund, do it!
If not, try online Mac RAM source and seller Crucial memory. They have a table that matches your Mac to the correct and reliable RAM. You may need to contact them to see whether or not they ship to South Africa, though.
If Crucial dpesn't work out, here's the specs for your year and model iMac that you need to seek out and purchase.
Maximum Memory
32 GB (Actual) 16 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
4 - 204-pin PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
Good Luck!

  • Windows will not let me remove a bad version of the Firefox program so I can install a good one. I have an infected/malfunctioning Firefox. I have scanned with both Malbytes and SAS. I cannot remove the program so I can add a good version.

    I received a trojan malware. I first scanned with Malwarebytes. Then downloaded the Super Antispyware Portable Scanner and scanned with it. I want to remove the once infected Firefox and install a new one, but when I click "Remove" in the Add/Remove program, it will not proceed.
    How do I remove the once infected Firefox so I can install a new one?

    Take a look at:

    but you must delete the malware too.
    thank you

  • Groups in Address book on iPad will not let me create a new group

    My address book on the iPad will not let me create a new group. The red ribbon is there and shows my groups that I already have, but when I click on the ribbon the plus sign does not appear on the group side to let me create one.
    Can anyone help me? I have turned it off and back on.

    You can't create new groups on a mobile device.

  • I can't upload or import videos from my iphoto library, into final cut pro x.  When i click, IMPORT MEDIA in FCP, It lists iPhoto Library as GRAY, and will not let me access it.  I need the videos out of there.  I have tried every way I can think of.

    Like the title says...
    I can't upload or import videos from my iphoto library, into final cut pro x.  When i click, IMPORT MEDIA in FCP, It lists 'iPhoto Library' as GRAY, and will not let me select it.  I need the videos out of there.  I have tried every way I can think of.
    I have also tried from the iphoto side, to export the videos or share them to final cut.  I have had no luck.
    I have tried to drag and drop indidual video clips from iphoto to fcp, and the programs simply do not respond to each other
    I can see in the OLDER version of final cut pro x, where it has IMPORT FILES as an option, it was possible.  I see this on forums and youtube videos of the older versions.
    However, the newer version that i have, does not have IMPORT 'FILES' as an option, it is simply all lumped together as IMPORT 'MEDIA'
    Thank You for the Help

    at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
    So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
    vs
    using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
    Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
    All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

  • How to create a generalized version of the detailed polygons?

    How to create a generalized version of the detailed polygons?
    I have a table of detailed polygons (100+ vertices) and I want to get generalized version of these polygons.
    For example, assume I have a polygon with 100 vertices. Distance between vertex n and n+1 is 1.0.
    I want to get geometry (generalized polygon, line or point) where distance between vertex n and n+1 is 10.0 or more (I want vertices to be considered as one vertex if distance between them is less then 10.0).
    Is it possible to create generalized version of polygons on the fly?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Scenario A:
    If all of your polygons have no interaction among them (No polygon shares any boundary with any other ones).
    In this case you can use the sdo_util.simplify in 10g to reduce the vertices in your polygons which returns new polygon geometries on the fly.
    If you found that simplify is not doing exactly what you want, you can always roll out your own implementation using PL/SQL or the new SDOAPI JGeoemtry class in Java. Both will give you complete access to the coordinate arrays in a polygon and update them back to the database after you have simplified them in your code.
    Scenario B:
    If your polygons share boundaries, then the above methods will not work since the simplification process may not preserve the topology among your polygons. What you can do then is to use the Java topo package to create a new topology by adding all of your polygons to to an empty topology (which you first create in the database and then load into memory using oracle.spatial.topo.TopoMap). Once you have a topology built in the memory, you can use methods such as oracle.spatial.topo.TopoMap.changeEdgeCoords() to simplify the edges of your polygons. You can then recreate the simplified polygons from the topology. This is just a rough guide; for more details you need to check out the java doc for the various packages mentioned above which are shipped with 10g spatial.

    I purchased a video from iTunes but it will not sync to my iPod.  I get a message stating that the video "was not loaded to the iPod because iyt cannot be played on this iPod."  I tried to use the "create an iPod version" but the command is grayed out

    I was refering to the "sample rate", normally 44.1 KHz, the iPod might not be able to play tracks with a non-standard rate. Otherwise I'm not sure what the issue might be.

  • Sync will not let me create a account. when prompted to create a password and when I hit the ok button it just flashes and the prompt box sows again asking me to create a password. how do I create a sync account when it will not even letme do so?

    why does sync not let me create a account? it will not take a a new password so that I can create a new sync acct.

    Hi there!
    It sounds like you have a Master Password set on your Firefox profile:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Master_password
    When you try to set up a Sync account, Sync needs to access your password manager. The dialog you're seeing is asking for your Master Password, not asking to create a new password. Simply entering your Master Password should allow Sync setup to complete.
    Note that you'll need to enter your Master Password in order for Sync to do its thing; it'll ask once when you launch Firefox, but it won't keep bugging you after that.
    Hope this helps!

  • Just found Ipad Nano in Big Island Hawaii. Trying to find the owner to return it back. Tell me what is the color, how many songs and your name(its personalize with a name).

    Just found Ipad Nano in Big Island Hawaii. Trying to find the owner to return it back. Tell me what is the color, how many songs and your name(its personalize with a name).

    I only wish that when I called Apple, they would match the serial number with the owner and give me the contact
    Hopefully you left Apple your contact info (name phone #, email address).
    Apple would simply pass your contact to the last registered owner. It would be up to the owner to contact you. As Dave mentioned, Apple will not give you any info (except may to tell you it was or was not registered, but not to who). Turn it on once in a while and maybe they have activated FindMyiPad and a message will pop up (don't need to be logged onto the iPad to a message).

  • Firefox 4 will not let me keep my bookmarks listed on the side bar. I can open them there but once I click somewhere else they go away.

    Firefox 4 will not let me keep my bookmarks listed on the side bar. I can open them there but once I click somewhere else they go away. On previous Firefox versions I could display my bookmark folders down the left side of my screen and just leave them there, accessing saved bookmarks when I needed to. Now with FF4 I can open a vertical column of my bookmark folders by clicking on bookmarks in the navigation bar but this won't stay there; if I click elsewhere they disappear. I could put a bookmark toolbar on my screen but this takes up more vertical space. I have lots of horizontal space that's unused. How can I go back to the display of bookmarks in previous versions?

    You can fix that by going to View -> Sidebar and click on Bookmarks.
    Or you could simply use a shortcut
    ''control + B''

  • Is Apple Not Going to Release an Unlocked Version of the iPhone 5 in the USA?

    I am wondering if Apple is simply not going to release an unlocked version of the iPhone 5 in the USA as we are already in November and no news have been released.
    If I purchase a no commitment iPhone 5 with Verizon, will it be unlocked for all the carriers in the USA and abroad? Thanks.

    Apple has made no announcement one way or the other.
    Kappy, I don't know where you get the idea that AT&T stores are selling unlocked phones. I've heard no such thing.
    I have heard that if one purchases a no commitment AT&T iPhone 5 and plugs it in and restores it in iTunes before activating it, that it will be unlocked. I don't know that this is actually official policy on AT&T's part, but it has been documented to happen. Whether it continues or not...
    I also know that Verizon is legally prohbited from selling the iPhone 5 completely locked down due to conditions imposed on them when the won a recent auction for radio spectrum.
    Not to speculate on what they will do, but I for one, don't see much point in selling an unlocked version of the iPhone 5 in the U.S. There is only one GSM carrier in the U.S., AT&T. The US GSM iPhone 5 will not work on any LTE networks outside of the US, so logically, why bother?
    A huge percentage of Americans never leave the country over the course of their lives... It's not like other parts of the world where one can cover multiple countries in a days drive...
    Heck,many Americans never even leave the State they were born in.

  • Itunes shows album in library but tells me I am not authorised to use it - I go through the whole id authorisation process and it still says the same, I purchased it three email addresses ago.

    Itunes shows an album in library but tells me I am not authorised to use it - I go through the whole id authorisation process and it still says the same, I purchased it three email addresses ago.

    What do you mean three email addresses ago? Do you mean that you've had three accounts in the store with three separate email addresses? Purchases must be authorized according the account details under which they were purchased. You can Get Info on the tracks and see the account name they were purchased with. Also...a missing shared folder can prevent authorization. See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1277
