  • Can I use my mac book pro in Ireland without a converter?

    can I use my mac book pro in ireland without a converter?  meaning just use my USA plug with an adapter (not voltage converter) in the socket?

    Or go whole hog and splurge on the Apple Travel Kit, that contains enough adapters & such to purportedly enable you to power your Mac, iPod, iPad or iPhone anywhere in the world. Available at the Store.

  • I am getting an Narration error that I can't record because one of the record-enabled tracks is locked in the timeline. What does this mean and how do I get out of it??

    Thanks for the update.
    There are several Adobe Premiere Elements Forum threads about situation such as the one that you have encountered. Typically they are the results of some heavy activity in the narration track.  Some have found success in maneuvers between the Expert and Quick workspaces in versions 11 and 12 or Timeline and Sceneline workspaces in versions earlier than 11. That is why I mentioned that type of factor in a prior post in your thread.
    If that is not working, then we are forced into the new project where the problems in the current project are not presenting.
    I will do a search for the threads that I am recalling about your type of issue. But, right now all roads seem to head to the new project. But I would ask "Can you salvage this project by creating your narration clips in Audacity or a new Premiere Elements project and import them into this project, putting the clips on one of the numbered audio tracks?"
    If the problem should reappear in the new project, please let us know including the details of what was going on immediate before the problem surfaced.
    Thanks.

  • What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported".

    What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported". What does that mean? I am trying to drag libraries (with metadata) to external HD...wondering what the best way to do that is?

    Hi Shane.  Not much in the way of thoughts - - but fwiw:
    How is the drive attached?
    Can you open large files on the drive with other programs?
    Are you running any drive compression or acceleration programs (some drives arrive with these installed)?
    Can you reformat the drive and try again?
    Hi Kirby,
    I attached the UltraMax Plus with a USB cable. The UltraMax powers the cable so power is not an issue. I can open other files. Also, there is 500GB of files on the drive so I cannot re-format it. Although, I noted I could import the entire Aperture Library. However, I do not want to create a duplicate on my machine because that would be defeating the purpose of the external drive.
    Thanks,

    That sort of thing doesn't happen automatically,. Someone had to change it. Just rename it anything you like. Right click on it and select Get Info then in the Name and Extension are name what you like.

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    If the issue is to do with Safari, then you may need to reset it.

    Check Finderr->Preferences->General and ensure that HDs are selected for display. If so and they still don't, Reset the NVRAM/PRAM and Reset the SMC, and see if that does the trick.

    Hello, Juniorjr2. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This sounds like screen curtain may be enabled.  Screen curtain is a feature that allows display privacy.  To disable screen curtain while VoiceOver is enabled, you can three finger triple tap the screen to disable this feature.  You may need to press the home button once in order to process these steps.  If you wish to disable VoiceOver, see the link in the article below.

  • Do you need an antivirus when windows 7 is installed on a mac book pro?

    do you need an antivirus when windows 7 is installed on a mac book pro?

    Microsoft Security Essentials is free and decent, don't beg you for cash.
    Just keep Windows updated and don't use it online for anything except for updates if you can all help it.
    Use OS X to go online and grab files, clean them using the free ClamXav before passing them onto the Windows side.
    When you first setup Windows and have it updated, use the free WinClone to copy the Bootcamp partition to a external drive for safekeepiing.

    Yes, he purchased Mountain Lion on his Apple ID. It is licensed to him. What he should have done was erase the HDD and install the system that the Mac shipped with. Erase and re-install either from Recovery Partition or the disks the Mac originally shipped with. Then, purchase ML with your own Apple ID and install.
