Imovie program for MackBook Pro

Does anyone know if an older version of Imovie(2006-8) i am not sure,   will work on a MackBook Pro. I really liked that Imovie creator, was easier to use than the new one. At least for me.

A copy of the older iMovie should be found in your application folder.

Thank you and let me know what you think.

    what is the best voice control program for macbook pro?
    i have lost the use of my arms and need full voice control.
    thank you.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First, use speech recognition. It's installed on OS X, so you don't have to install a third-party app. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11258?viewlocale=en_US

  • Replacement Program for Acrobat Pro 7

    I have twice downloaded the replacement program for Acrobat Pro 7 but get an error message when I try to install it. The message asks me to verify that I have access to the directory. The only options are abort/retry/ignore, none of which allows me to proceed past a partial installation. Any suggestions?

    You still need to log in as an administrator to install the software, unless there have been changes in Acrobat that I am not aware of. At one point, it had to be the actual Administrator account, not one with admin priv. I think that went away after that one version, but you should still have admin priv.
    If you are trying to install AA7 (the one that allows separate activation process), you may still not be able to install it, particularly if you are talking about a 64-bit system. If it is 64-bits, then I have my doubts that AA7 will install at all, but you can try. If you succeed, with the installation, you will probably need to work on some workarounds to get things to operate. You may not get the Adobe PDF printer for instance. There are several things that you might be able to do for fixes in a sense on Win7, 32-bit. I have my doubts that they work on WIn7, 64-bit (I have not tried).
    If you are indeed trying to install AA XI, then you can ignore my comments. Maybe I need to try on one of my 64-bit systems at work to see what I can get away with.

  • College Programs for Macbook Pro

    I am starting College in August and just bought a Macbook Pro for school. What are some programs that would benefit me greatly. I need a program for writing papers, and a program that would allow me to take notes while I am in class. Please give me any suggestions that you have. Thank you.

    I used to take notes in outline form using OmniOutliner, though it wasn't always as easy as I felt it ought to be to use that for notes.  I've heard good things about Evernote, but haven't really used it, so I don't know if it would be appropriate.
    For writing papers, if you're going to need to exchange files with folks, you probably need something compatible with MS Office.  If you're just going to type stuff up and print it and maybe every now and then give someone an electronic copy to look at, you could get by with something less MS Office compatible like Pages (which can still export to MS Word files but that support is not flawless).

  • Trying to install InDesign (Adobe) but when I double click the Install it calls up FTP Client Ultimate?? What is the install program for MACBook Pro?

    I'm new to MAC, that said I really haven't had much trouble with it except today I am trying to install Adobe InDesgin but it keeps trying to use FTP Client Ultimate  to do so.. What is the installer that it should be using? I was hoping it would auto start and install but no such luck..

    Thanks, I have posted to Adobe regarding their program, but my question here ( I'm new to Mac world) is what install program would normally install this? For some reason my MacBook pro keeps calling on FTP Client Ultimate to do the install and clearly that's not the right program to install a program..
    I Love mu Mac, but getting help is a it frustrating...
    i'm sure Apple has a program similar to InDesign, but have no idea what it would be..

  • Question RE: Security/Virus Program for Macbook Pro

    Greetings,
    I was wondering if you would recommend Avast 2014 Antivirus Software protection for the macbook pro. If not, is there any other programs and/or other applications I should know about or use to help with viruses and security? I was also considering Norton.
    Thank you in advance for any help and/or any advice.
    Christian

    Hi Christian,
    I was wondering if you would recommend Avast 2014 Antivirus Software protection for the macbook pro.
    Absolutely not. Older versions of Avast were garbage that would do nothing beneficial. Their most recent version is arguably malicious. Norton / Symantec is worse. Install none of that junk.
    You may be considering them due to a familiarity with their equivalent PC products, in which the case for advocating their use may be entirely different - I'm assuming that is the case since no knowledgeable Mac user would ever consider either product. For all I know their Windows PC products may be reputable.
    is there any other programs and/or other applications I should know about or use to help with viruses and security?
    "Anti-virus" software serves no purpose on a Mac and is a common cause of problems reported on this site. OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Automated means of protecting your Mac from malware are an ineffective defense against that threat. At best, they will provide a false sense of security, a threat all to itself.
    A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
    Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
    Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
    Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
    "Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements.
    Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
    Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
    Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
    Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
    Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
    Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
    Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
    Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
    Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
    Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
    Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
    Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
    Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
    If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
    Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
    The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
    OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
    Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
    If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
    Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
    Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
    Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

  • Has anyone figured out how to name or describe a clip ala "keyword" in the new imovie program for maverick?

    I miss the old "keyword" way of identifying a clip when doing longer form things in imovie.  Is there any other way to
    name or describe a clip in the browser?
    Morry Alter

    iMovie acts as it does, I suspect, because it's so much safer (and easier) to program.
    As iMovie is now structured, each clip has a startFrame and an endFrame. They show the starting point and ending point of that clip in its source file. There's only one of each. Simple.
    For us to remove a portion of the middle without splitting the clip in two, iMovie would have to allow each clip to have multiple start/end points. So iMovie would have to "remember" that the clip starts playing at frame 100, stops at frame 120, starts again at frame 150, stops at frame 200, and so on. Very complicated.
    The amount of data that would be required to undo a change, for example, could become quite large, and be very, very complicated. Lots of opportunity for errors. Imagine what iMovie would have to "remember" if we could remove the middle, added a title to the clip, remove part of the title, then split the clip and applied a slow motion effect to the second part of the split.
    This way is simpler, and not all that inconvenient for users, in my opinion. I prefer simple when it adds to reliability.

  • Capture Program for Premier Pro

    I have CS5 Production Premium and two PCs.  I would like to use the 6-core for editing while using the 4-core for editing support, e.g. capture, while I am editing.  Unfortunately,  I am informed that I cannot use one licence for CS5 upgrade from CS4 on 2 computers at the same time, even if I also retained C4.  So to capture while editing, I need a separate capture program.
    What capture program is compatible with Premier Pro CS5?

    Thank you.  I have not progressed to the Cloud alternatives yet for my applications.  Other alternatives such as being offered by Microsoft for a Windows licence to lease on a yearly payment basis are interesting.  It appears that all updates and new releases might be available such that a large single financial output is avoided.  With this type of software licence, if it is no longer needed, its use can be terminated in the short term at lower cost.  I would jump at this opportunity with Adobe since I could use such a short term lease  for a stand alone Premier Pro CS5.  I could use its capture function for a year, perhaps find other functions of a second Premier Pro is useful, then decide how to continue in the future.  This type of marketing would include customers who find the initial cost of software such as Creative Studios and others out of their reach.  Perhaps unknown to me the Creative Cloud subscription is already doing this.

  • Best maintenence program for Mac Pro

    I was accustomed to using MacJanitor for my G4. I like it simple. I dont leave my computer on all the time. What is recommended for system maintenance for this computer. I dont want anything that can cause accidental problems if I don't know what I am doing.

    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.0 is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.2 is Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. The current version, 1.5.1, is Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.
    OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
    I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
    2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
    4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
    5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)
    6. Carbon Copy Cloner (Freeware - 3.0 is a Universal Binary)
    7. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
    The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
    1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
    2. Toast
    3. Impression
    4. arRSync
    Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
    Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.

  • I need sound & wireless drivers for mackBook Pro after insalling windows 7

    Hi
    I just bought a Macbook pro 2.56 and installed windows 7. I haven't been able to install driver for Audio, Ethernet controller ( wireless as well) I searched on the web and followed a a few suggestions which was trying to install it from DVD OSX install came with the MBP and as well as installing the driver from HP that some people tried and fixed the problem . I am running Parallel Desktop 4.0 and it seems I can't get to install these driver that shows are missing in device manager. Please advise .
    Thanks

    Hi matchmate,
    by installing the Parallels Tools while running Windows inside Parallels usually installs all needed drivers, including sound, ethernet etc.
    Parallels currently does not list 64-bit Windows 7 in their list of supported guest OS (operating systems), so it seems that you are, for the moment, out of luck.
    http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/sr/
    Future updates/upgrades of Parallels might include 64-bit WIndows 7 support.
    Regards

  • How to prepare Adobe programs for Mac Pro

    I just bought a Mac Pro and will "Migrate" from my G5 2.5. I've prepared files and drivers(updating to UB or removing some per suggestions from this forum).
    My only concern is Adobe CS2 suite(Illustrator,Photoshop, InDesign). While I am fully aware of the performance hit(I will have an additional 1 or 2 gigs of ram by this weekend), is there anything else I should do with regards to the Adobe apps to make them more "Intel-friendly".

    The only important thing to do is to install it new, don't use the Migration Assistant, and to custom install WITHOUT Adobe Version Cue 2. There is Intel issues with this component. Otherwise, it should work as planned.

  • Could you please give me some link driver windows Ultimate for mackbook pro

  • How do i request the up-to-date program for macbook pro for mountain lion os x i do not get the processes can someone explain it to me with detail

    i cant follow the instructions they do not make sense do i request it when i get the make or when os x is released

    The third post (by BitBytr) quotes the page that I am referring to.  If you read it -- either his post, or the web page, you would realize it says ver batim:
    Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 11, 2012 and the date when Mountain Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from the OS X Mountain Lion release date to make a request.
    Ironically, the fifth post (also by BitBytr) emphasizes the exact same quote.  It's the same statement found in two places on Apple's website.  Why are we even arguing this?
    Either way, everyone has referenced Apple's web site.  Congrats, folks.  You have valid references.  But the OP wanted it "Barney style", or broken down to much easier terms to understand, which I feel was provided in my first post.  If anyone disagrees, I welcome corrections or easier wording.  Afterall, we're here to help OP.  Momacandipad, has your question been answered?

    Hi lucevans
    Thank you very much! I tried it with USB and look-a-here it works! Ok, my iMac (Nov 11) has only USB2 but the transfer rate seems to be pretty similar to using TB. I nevertheless wonder if there is any disadvantage in using USB instead of TB (?).
