Is it safe to upgrade to Studio 2?...post studio wants to know

I've got 2 machines that are constantly used, so I can't wait inbetween jobs..there's no inbetween. so i'm wondering is it safe to convert over to Studio 2 yet?
I do HD and SD work and transcode all HDV to DVCpro HD and would like to start using the Prores. but i'm concerned that there are many issues still looming..haven't had enough time to seek all the listings of remaining issues.
I've read that there is some issues with QuickTime 7.2 and Studio 2 is that resolved too?
lastly, what i do is get a new HD install osx fresh, update, install QT, Software update, then install FCP 2. then install all my other support programs, CS2, AE etc... is this still a good process?
thanks so much everyone..oh and i just got my new freelance site up with iweb ( http://www.shanemario.com ) if anyone's intersted....what a cool program

We installed our FCS2 right over our existing FCS1. Took about two hours to run all of the disks, make some tests and get back to work.
I do not recommend the scorched earth total reinitialization except in certain circumstances; yours is not one of them. A simple upgrade should do the trick for you.
However, you would supremely irresponsible not to make a clone of your system drives before you do this upgrade and, just to be safe, I'd disconnect all external drives during the operation.
The issues you are trying to research cannot be answered in blanket statements. Some people have had terrible experiences with QT7.2; we have not. Some folks had problems with the last pro apps update; we did not. Some folks found that STP2 was more or less crippled after the upgrade; our copies are fine.

    As with every computing device, a backup is your ONLY insurance should anything ever go wrong with your device.
    Without a backup, if something does happen to go awry, you will loose whatever you have not backed up.
    So my response is, of course you need a backup.  You always need a backup, no matter what.

    Hi Shubham Nahar,
    The system requirements for Yosemite are listed here.
    How to install OS X Yosemite on your Mac
    Before you install Yosemite, make sure you have one of these Macs:
    iMac (Mid-2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Your Mac also needs:
    OS X Mavericks, Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard v10.6.8, already installed
    2 GB or more of memory
    8 GB or more of available disk space
    I don't have that Macbook, so maybe others can chime in as well.
    Take care,
    Nubz

  • Upgraded Db from 10gR2 to 11gR2 want to know how can we make use of mem_target & mem_max_size parameter

    Hi Guys,
    Wish u all a very happy new year.
    We have upgraded our Client UAT system on solaris 10 from 10gR2(10.2.0.4) to 11.2.0.3 with latest PSU patch 11.2.0.3.8 Solaris SPark 64 bit.
    Post DB upgrade new parameters have been incorporated into the system namely
    1. Memory_Target
    2. Memory_Max_Size.
    Now although we have our SGA and PGA set to some specific values in our system, what i want to know is how can we utilize the Two parameters i named above in the system and
    how can it provide me better performance in relationship with SGA and PGA set in the system.
    Probably on what concept does Memory_Target and Memory_max_size parameters work in 11gR2 system.
    It would be really great if some one can provide the details with explanation.
    Your help is appreciated.
    Regards,
    Milan Rathod.

    Hi,
    Automatic Memory Management(AMM) was introduced in ORACLE 11g to automate the size of SGA and PGA(takes full control of managing memory)
    To configure AMM ,need to initialize MEMORY_TARGET and MEMORY_MAX_TARGET parameters.
    MEMORY_TARGET:
    The amount of shared memory available for Oracle to use when dynamically controlling the SGA and PGA.
    This parameter is dynamic, so the total amount of memory available to Oracle can be increased or decreased, provided it does not exceed the MEMORY_MAX_TARGET limit. The default value is "0".
    MEMORY_MAX_TARGET:
    This defines the maximum size the MEMORY_TARGET can be increased to without an instance restart.
    If the MEMORY_MAX_TARGET is not specified, it defaults to MEMORY_TARGET setting.
    Let say If you are setting MEMORY_MAX_TARGET=2GB, then oracle will use these 2GB to manage the memory(Boh SGA and PGA)
    If you set db_cache_size=1GB based on your requirement , then AMM always retains this 1GB memory for db_cache_size and it will use the remainng 1GB memory for other processes.

  • IPhone 5 still using 6.0.1 because of battery issues. Now hearing about battery issues w/ 6.1, too. When does anyone think it'll be safe to upgrade to 6.1

  • Is it safe to upgrade to iTunes 8 on Windows Vista (32-bit)

    For the last few months after iTunes 8 has been released, I've seen post after post from folks who say that the upgrade process is less than perfect and in many cases causes lower level issues on their computer post-upgrade. I have iTunes 7.7.1.11, and each time I'm prompted to upgrade to version 8, I pass it up.
    Is it safe to upgrade now, or does the iTunes/Windows community still hold reservations on the success of an upgrade and it should be done more at the caution to the user to proceed at their own risk, or is it once in a blue moon that a user would run into issues upgrading to iTunes 8 while running Windows Vista?
    Also have folks tried iTunes 8 on Windows 7 and do they see any more positive results from that than on Vista?
    Cheers,
    George

    In regards to Windown 7 Beta... I upgraded iTunes yesterday to 8.0.2 (never could get the 8.0.1 installer to work, even under WinXP). So far it's not been pleasant. I plugged by 80G Classic in to sync and it didn't want to eject. Windows and iTunes were fighting over the thing. The iPod synced and tried to auto-eject, then windows said "hey! here's a removable disk! What ya want me to do with it?" I told windows to ignore it (Cancel) and iTunes started syncing the iPod again. Lather, Rinse, Repeat... I was finally able to get it timed just right to unplug it during the split second that it showed the OK to disconnect screen and all appears OK on the pod for now. I'm not too happy at this point. I do still have 8.0.0.35 on my XP install.. may end up using that and uninstalling 8.0.2 if it doesn't clear up.

  • Upgrading to Studio 8

    Hi,
    I have a Web site that uses a dreamweaver template. In this
    template, I've inserted 10 swf files. These files were created with
    Studio MX and the swfs don't play correctly in IE 7 beta (they show
    up with that grey border and I have to click them before they
    work). 8 of these swf files are buttons that contain a movie that
    is supposed to animate on mouseover. There is also a top button
    that is supposed to animate on mouseover.
    Here's my question: The Javascript code, provided as a fix,
    is too difficult for me to use (I'm not a programmer) and I'm
    wondering if upgrading to Studio 8 will allow me to update my site
    so that I don't have to deal with the javascript? I want to just be
    able to insert flash button swf and other swf and have them show up
    in IE 7 beta without hassle.

    I think, unfortunately, the answer to your question is "No,
    upgrading will not help." The problem isn't with Flash, the problem
    is with Microsoft and Active Content in general.
    Why don't you try out Geoff Stearns' SWFObject:
    http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/
    Here's even a video tutorial on using it:

    Hope that helps!

    and I'm a bit nervous abut those two warnings. Is it safe to upgrade my xorg-server in this case?
    I don't know if the bug was ever fixed so I don't know if I can upgrade nvidia...

    I did the upgrade and rebooted and my two screens are working fine. The bug with the latest nvidia was that it wouldn't run two screens.
    Thank you both, for the responses.
    BTW, yes, I upgrade more than once a month, but when there are no problems, I don't make a forum post.

  • Is it safe to upgrade to Yosemite yet?

    Having been sitting on the sidelines watching this debacle and wondering if it will ever be safe to upgrade.   Never upgraded to Mavericks because of all of the problems that people were having.   So I really thought I'd be able to upgrade by now to Yosemite, but still don't want to lose everything.
    Barb

    I've had absolutely no issues with Yosemite on two Macs. a 2007 iMac and a 2011 Mac Mini. And none of my friends with Macs have had any issues either.
    If you are expecting an Os without a single issue, or negative review or comment about it, you will be waiting a very long time.
    Every Os release from any company is always received by scores of negative reviews and comments.  When you release an update to millions of devices in differing unknown states of functionality it is not unlikely some may experience issues. But its generally a very small percentage of the update pool.
    But generalizing this to "the update is intrinsically flawed" is just silly.  Nothing in this world is perfect, less so computer software. But as long as you keep a recent backup, then likely hood of loosing anything is slim if any at all.

  • Is it safe to upgrade my Iphone4?

    I have an iphone4 with MC603ZP which is tagged factory unlocked. Was wondering if it would be safe to upgrade it to IOS5 using my itunes? Heard that if i upgrade it i would lose its unlock status?

    how would u know that ur phone is hacked or jailbroken to be unlocked?
    If you bought the phone originally as SIM-free/unlocked direct from Apple, or had a network operator officially unlock the phone via iTunes, then it has not been hacked.
    You said in the first post that it was "factory unlocked". This term means it was sold originally as unlocked direct from Apple.

  • Issues after upgrading design studio 1.3

    Hi Experts,
    We have upgraded design studio version from 1.2 to 1.3. Before upgradation our application was working fine and we didnt get any error. After upgradation, during runtime we are getting 2 errors and a warning. We are getting the following errors while clicking “Sales chart tab” and we couldnt find the cause of the errors.
    During runtime, we are getting the below warning message for a text box. We are displaying aggregated value of a keyfigure (undelivered quantity) in a text box using onload function in application properties and the scripts are as below.
    var Qaunt0 = DS_4.getDataAsString("006EIO21E0Q3UY91YLO5Y0ATQ", {});
    TEXT_1.setText(Qaunt0);

    I was facing the same issue and was able to fix with the following steps.
    - Login into Web tier box as The Administrator or same user which was
    used to install BIP Web tier
    - Stop TomcatRun Repair of the Design Studio install (BIP AddOn)
    - After install stop tomcat if it started, go to tomcat/work directory
    and delete everythign there
    - Run wdeploy tomcat7 deployallStart Tomcat and wait 10 minutes
    Hope this works.

  • Safe to upgrade kernel?

    Today when I did a pacman -Syu I got an option of upgrading to kernel2.6.30 and nvidia185.x.x.x
    In this forum I found a lot of people complaining about crashes with the new kernel. Is it safe to upgrade the kernel at this point or wait until things get stable? I don't have my Testing repo on, jjust the normal ones.I'm just confused abt what to do.
