How fast does the 4x dvd slot loader play cd's?

Hi, does the 4x apply to dvds only? It seems to me that the cd capabilities would have to be faster for my Imac g3 450mhz to be able to load & use most software. Thanks in advance for your replies.

I believe the 4x refers to DVDs. For example, look at the full specs. for this drive:

  • HT1657 How long does the rented movie have to play before the 24 hour limit starts?

    I hit play on my rental before I was ready to watch. How far into the movie before the 24 hour limit starts?

    As far as I know the clock starts immediately you start playing it. You should be able to see how long you have left - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
    On your device, the time remaining for you to finish watching the movie appears near the movie title.
    I assume that you are in the US ? In other countries you have 48 hours from when you start watching it, not 24

  • How fast does the mac pro run xp with 3d apps

    Hi all am planing to upgrade to a mac pro, but am not sure how it will run xp and some animations softwares on the xp side,
    i was just wondering if any one knows the speed and fast the mac pro can render with 3d max mental ray. and the problems it will encounter when running xp.

    If your plan is to run XP with 3D, why not BYO and go after an Intel X58 Core i7.
    Otherwise, keep your eye on Apple Specials (ref'd) units.

  • How fast does the battery deteriorate after 300 charges?

    I know apple says that after 300 charges, the batter should still be around 80% health. Mines around 325 charges and is at 94% health, so that means its really good for a 23 month old battery. I'm just wondering how much longer can this hold out for and what's the maximum lifespan for the battery? I pretty much use it every day because of school and usually run it down to about 30%-50% charge before i plug it back in and i have to use it until its completely dead about once every week or so.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    See this article about battery life in general and how to improve it: http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
    1. If your wifi is activated it will always consume energy even if your not connected to your home wifi net, because the phone is always looking for new available networks in order to connect.

  • How can I burn my iMovie project to DVD?  I do not have iDVD or iLife on my iMac but I do have the internal DVD slot.

    How can I burn my iMovie project to DVD?  I do not have iDVD or iLife on my iMac but I do have the internal DVD slot.

    Hi
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

    I'm interested in seeing who gets the D7100 support first? Apple or Adobe!! I will go with the one that gets it out first.
    FWIW,
    Adobe keeps a quarterly release schedule for RAW updates. The current Lightroom 4.4 RC expires on 5/31/2013 which typically is an indication that the official release will be close to that date. According to the current list of new supported cameras, the Nikon D7100 is not slated to be supported (but that could change on release).
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/lightroom4-4/?tabID=details#tabTop
    The most likely time frame for Adobe support of the D7100 will be sometime in August or September 2013 (although there will probably be a Lightroom 4.5 RC available prior to that for testing purposes).

  • HT4623 Hi!My iPAD lost its charge fast !!I've got an iPAD capacity 57,1GB and it has available 55,1GB ,version 7.0.4 .I'd like to know how long does the battery last when it is 100 % charged.

    Hi!I've just installed the iOS 7.0.4 operating system and the battery lost its charge at an incredibly speed.I'd like to know how long does the battery last if everything is right when it has 100% charge.Thanks!

    I`m `propping` up this thread to to the top of the forums again as it`s been three months and not a single community member or Apple support personnel have replied, which I find discouraging.
    I`ve tried everything - both the iOS device(s) and Apple TV have been upgraded (albeit reluctantly) to the latest versions, since iOS 7 looks like crap compared to iOS 6. Both use the same WiFi network. Bluetooth is set to `off`, as per the online tutorials on the Apple Support page.
    I also tried shutting all of them down, including the router, waiting 30 seconds and turning the router, then the Apple TV then the iOS device on sequentially with 30 seconds in between each, again as per this discussion forum, and still nothing.
    Why can Apple not make a technology, such as AirPlay, work with greater than 10%?
    Any other ideas?
    Come on, people.
    Thanks,
    Doug

  • HT202157 How long does this update take to load?

    How long does the new update take to load??

    I waited for over 12 hours and still did not download. My internet connexion is very fast. AppelTV seems to have gone on an endless loop: apple logo, blank screen, appel logo, etc. Can anyone tell me what I should do? I can't reset it, since I cannot get out of this loop. Any help, suggestion, will be greatly appreciated.

  • How quickly does the basic iMacMini connect to a Sling Media account and then handle streamed Sling Media content? Is it possible to test this at an Apple store?

    How quickly does the basic 1.4GHz/4GB/500GB iMacMini load Sling Media New Watch application and connect to one's account? Is this iMac fast enough to stream a video stream of approx.  2MB bandwidth without buffering (assuming an adequate internet connection) ? Is it possible to test this on a display model at an Apple store in the UK?
    Thanks for your assistance

    You said " 1.4GHz/4GB/500GB iMacMini"
    There is not such thin. There is the 1.4 GHz.4G/500GB Mac Min desktop computer.
    iMac computers are ingratiated computers that includes the display.

  • How fast does your Windows boot up?

    Out of curiosity, how fast does your Windows bootup?
    I have Windows XP, and the logo screen displays for about 11.06 seconds. How about yours, and what can be done to make Windows work faster?

    Right click on My Computer > Manage > at the bottom on the left double click on Services + Applications > Services then double click on Print Spooler and and select startup type Manual.
    Also more fast bootup stuff... Search google for XP SP2 Beta... install that > ive found it great so far.. MS has got it so it disables a load of unneeded services so PC will boot / shut down quicker.. Remember it is only a BETA atm.. so use at your own risk.. ive had no probs tho.. pc seems quicker
    Cheers.

    Thanks Flam3h, it most definitely is the printer spooler.  The problem is that if you set it to manual, your printer will not work.  When you go to print something, Windows tells you that you must first install a printer.  This is the only service I've found where the manual setting will not work.  You either have to set it as automatic or go into services and start it each time you want to print.  I'm just wanting to know if anyone else has this problem and knows of a work around to allow the manual setting to work.
    I don't know if I'm ready to try service pack 2 yet.  If I do, I will definitely make a ghost first

  • How well does the TomTom app work?

    Let's hear it, how well does the TomTom app work compared to a dedicated GPS device? Are you using TomTom's special cat kit? Is there a way to load TomTom binary files (POIs) onto the iphone?

    I have used a Garmin Nuvi760 for about 2 years and have been very pleased. When TomTom had a sale for $50 and now seems to be $60, I bought it. I also bought a kensington car mount. (http://us.kensington.com/html/17546.html). I like it. with my 3GS, there is no need for the amplified TomTom car kit. The speech quality could be better but it's loud enough. I do like the on screen presentations a bit more than my Garmin. I'm still getting used to the interface. It's a real good thing that I can use my contacts file to set destinations. My next step is to go on an 800 mile trip this month and compare the two systems side by side. So far, TomTom has not always made the best route choice and once sent me to the right address in an adjoining city. (This is southern Cal) Not good, but these are map issues which will always be evolving. Is it worth it? Yes. At $100, maybe. The good thing is that my phone is always with me and so is my GPS. I does put a drain on the battery, so it should be on charging while using in a car.
