Just went to MacBook Pro from a Dell PC. Is Aperture 3 like Photoshop Elements?
Just went to a MacBookPro from a Dell PC. Have used Photoshop Elements for a long time. Does Aperture 3 operate like Photoshop Elements? Which does the best job of photograp editing?
well, like Terence said above, Elements is a pixel-level editor. you have brush tools, text tools, erasers, etc. you can manipulate the image on a pixel-by-pixel basis. you can draw shapes on top of the photo, add text, and on and on.
there are no tools for doing that sort of thing in Aperture. Aperture is a tool that's main strength comes in organizing photos into projects and albums. you can add keywords, edit metadata like copyright fields, and rank them with 0-5 stars. from there you can make global adjustments like contrast, brightness, and saturation to an image. you can even easily copy a set of preferred adjustments onto an entire selection of photos, easing the work of giving an entire album a certain look. many of the adjustments can be masked as well, so that the adjustment only applies to certain areas of the image (making the sky darker in a landscape, for instance).
but if you wanted to add a red border to a photo you can't do that. want to add some text with a fancy outline and a drop shadow? no dice.
however, if you really want to do something like that to a given photo within Aperture, you can choose edit the photo with Photoshop Elements. Aperture makes a new version of the file and opens it in Photoshop Elements. From there you can make your changes, add text, borders, brush strokes, composite in another photo, etc. then save your new file and within the Aperture library, you now have two versions of that file.

I'm a israeli client i just get the macbook pro from U.S.A and i had received the 100$ gift from Appstore
i'm tryin to enter the code of the gift and they tell me your itunes store (israeli) does not match that of the gift certificate !
how can i get the 100$ gift and how can i realize it ?!Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps. -
can any one help me with this please!

I clicked on the ACSM file and it opened the book, which I think means I'm screwed.
When I try to authorize mu nook, it pops up a cancer warning. At this point, I can't even get to the "authorize device" item under my nook's gear-icon -- that's greyed out.
Could Adobe make this any more difficult if they tried?Well, you cannot use the 3G USB modem plugged directly into the Express. However, you can configure your MacBook Pro to do 'Internet sharing' (SysPrefs>Sharing) over the Ethernet port, and then connect your Express into the Ethernet port. Alternatively, you could always get your MacBook to 'create a wireless network'.

It is "last years model" and it came shipped with Mac OS X 10.7.5. I was just wondering if I could update for free since it is brand new mac?
Supposedly if you purchase 10.8 and check out, if the machine is one on the list the account is not charged.
I can't confirm this, but that's what one person reported back as what occured. -
When I connect my Macbook Pro to my Dell DLP projector, either via cable or wirelessly, I just see a dark screen with the mouse and mouse trails only, can any one help?
jpmarkques post is a good start point, after folling his directions, you can try detect displays. Also try different rsolution and refresh rates.
Most of the projectors I have used support a 1024X768 res.
Youcan also try a pram reset if it still does not detect.
Leave theproctor connected and powered up, power down the MBP.
Power back up the MBP and hold the following keys before you hear the start up chime:
Option, command, P,R (no commas) continue to hold these keys till you hear the start up chime 2 times. -
I just got a MacBook Pro and I used Home Sharing to transfer my library from my PC. However, my PC's battery died in the middle of the process so only half of my music was transferred. The sharing option no longer shows up on the left. Do I need to start completely over and delete the content in my new library to prevent duplicates or is there a way to continue the process?

I just got my MacBook Pro a month ago. However I am realizing I need more hard drive space due to aps and programs. I use am external but am concerned about the space. Is there a way to upgrade my hard drive from apple and keep my warranty valid?
That would depend on whether your model actually has a hard drive. If you have the new 2013 Retina model, then you have a fixed storage device built-in that cannot be modified after purchase.

Tunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases. -
