Mainstage says my MacBook graphics card isn't supported. Huh?

I just installed Logic Studio on my MacBook 2.2 Intel Duo OSX 10.5.5, and Mainstage won't boot. Says my graphics card isn't supported. Logic Pro works fine.
Any ideas, geniuses?

MainStage has additional requirements beyond those of Logic Pro. Your MacBook uses onboard graphics which don't meet the requirement for the original version of MainStage; some people have gotten it to work by running the current MainStage updater.

Chief Architect with macbook graphics card

I am trying to find a new computer for my dad to use as a business computer. He builds houses and wants a computer that can handle Chief Architect, but wants a computer that wont break down in a year due to hardware problems (AKA - DELL/HP)
I want to know if Chief Architect will run ok with the macbook graphics card, since this computer is in his price range.
Details: this is a windows program, and I was planning on using bootcamp to enable him to run this on his mac, and he would do everything else on the mac side.
System requirements for the program:
• Windows 98, 2000, or XP
• 2 GHz processor, or greater.
• At least 2 GB available hard disk space.
• A video card with OpenGL hardware acceleration that has 32 MB of memory or greater.
This program has the capabilities of creating a 3D view of the house and record a 3D walk through of the house.
With the Macbook graphics card, will this run smoothly? And what is OpenGL? Is this vital, if so does mac have it?

You may already have made a decision and a purchase. If you have, I'd like to know what you chose, because I 'm in much the same situation as your dad. If not, I can tell you that my PC program, which ran agonizingly slowly under now ancient Virtual PC and Windows 98 on my old Powermac, ran fine on a friend's HP with integrated graphics (that is, with no separate, dedicated graphics card). So I suspect it would run even better on the Macbook, which is much faster than the HP was and has better intergrated graphics. However before I buy I will take the program and an elaborate architectural file to an Apple store and ask if they will let me test it on a Macbook. Clearly a Macbook Pro would be more than enough, and while I'd like one, I doubt I need one.

The App store stopped accepting my credit card all of a sudden. It says that my credit card is "not supported by the Chilean app store"... The credit card is Chilean and was working just fine. Help!

This is the second time this happens. I was living in the US until April 2011. I moved to Chile and kept using the App Store and the iTunes Store just fine with my US-issued credit card. However, when I accessed my Apple ID from a different device, the store stopped recognizing my credit card information and migrated my ID to the "Chilean" App & Itunes Store (significantly less apps & music... but anyway). I started using my Chilean credit card on the App and iTunes store with no issues. I supposed that the devices catched that I was no longer in the US and that I had to be transferred to the related store (which I think is fine), and that because I was now in the Chilean store I needed to use a Chilean-issued credit card (which doesn't make sense to me, I still don't understand why Apple stopped accepting my US credit card if it is accepted everywhere else in the world online and offline!).
However, yesterday I bought something from my iPad and when today I went to use the app store from my iPhone the SAME THING happened. I got the same request to "update my billing information", I confirmed my Chilean credit card info and, surprise! "Your credit card is not supported by the Chilean app store"...
I don't get it. If I didn't get it the first time, I ended up accepting it an getting over it because ok, I moved to another country and my account was migrated, etc. But now, it doesn't recognize my local credit card in my local store! I tried both my local Visa and my local MasterCard, and none of them worked. It looks like my account will not accept ANY credit card, no matter wheter I try to update the info from my mobile devices, on iTunes, on the Mac App Store, etc.
It has been impossible for me to find any information on what causes this and on how to solve it, and so far I hadn't had any trouble with Apple and hadn't need any support before, but now that I need URGENT SUPPORT, I've come to realize that THEY SUCK at being accessible! There's no way I can contact them! So, please help me!!!!! I need urgent help!!!!
Thanks and sorry for the very long post.

Same thing happened to me with my peruvian credit card in the peruvian app store, I want to buy an app, but it says that my credit card is "not supported in the Peruvian app store"

Installed graphics card does not support the opengl features recommended

I've installed FCP6 on my PowerMac (PPC G4 DP 1.25GHz), and when I run it, I get a warning ("...installed graphics card does not support the opengl features recommended...") and the program ends. The graphics card is the ATI Radeon 9000 Pro (64MB)
I'm looking for a definitive answer regarding my hardware compatibility with FCS2 (specifically, FCP6). I'm NOT looking for an answer along the lines of: your system is too old to run this.
I've checked the minimum system requirements from the apple website (http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/specs/
and http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/download/):
* A Macintosh computer with a 1.25GHz or faster PowerPC G4, PowerPC G5, Intel Core Duo, or Intel Xeon processor
* 1GB of RAM
* An AGP or PCI Express Quartz Extreme graphics card (Final Cut Studio is not compatible with integrated Intel graphics processors)
* A display with 1024-by-768 resolution or higher
* Mac OS X v10.4.11 or later
* QuickTime 7.3 or later
* DVD drive for installation
I have all that stuff. What I'd like is to know which component of my system is FCP6 complaining about (vis-a-vis the error message above), alternatively, if someone has had success with a similar configuration, I'd like to know anything they think might help.
Thanks in advance for any helpful advice you may have.

The minimum would probably be an nVidia Fx5200 or an ATI 9600...

Please could someone confirm the Graphics card needed to support a Eizo ColorEdge CG275W monitor, resolution 2560x1440

Hello, community, Please could someone confirm the Graphics card needed to support a Eizo ColorEdge CG275W monitor, resolution 2560x1440. I currently have a Mac Pro with a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT VRAM (Total): 256 MB, which I'm guessing by it's age will not handle the new monitor. Any advice greatly appreciated.
Kindly Andrew Nash

I would dump the 7300GT regardless and get the ATI 5770 $249
Apple ATI HD 5770
5770 in the 2006 Mac Pro

Insert a SIM from a supported carrier.
Where did the phone come from, it sounds like the device has been hacked or jailbroken to be unlocked and updating has re locked to the original carrier. It is also possible that the SIM simply needs to be reseated or replaced.

My graphics card which is supported doesn't get recognised

My graphics card which is supported doesn't get recognised.
I tried updating the driver of the graphics card which is a NVIDIA 2000D and it didn't help.
Maybe someone has a idea what it can be??

Same here. Using W7Pro 64-bit
Recognized in Photoshop CS6
Not recognized in Photoshop CC

My MacBook pro's graphics card isn't compatible with FCP X. What are my options here?

So I cant even try the free trial because there is no graphics card compatablility? I have an older macbook pro, 2006, running snow leopard.
What are my best options here for video editing?
I have used FCP before, so would prefer to get a version of that. Would it be dumb to try and get FCP 7?
Should I settle for Imovie?
My experience is advanced intermediate...
Any help would be appreciated.

You cannot upgrade the Graphics card on a laptop because everything is built into the logic board. Unfortunately your perticular graphics chip is actually built into the CPU, and is a very low performing chip which would definately make gaming hard.
Sorry for the bad news.

The MacBook graphics card.

The current MacBook for sale has a GMA X3100 graphics card. Battlefield 2142's system requirements say that the game will not run on a GMA950 graphics card. So will Battlefield 2142 run on the current MacBook?

Probably not. The X3100 is slightly faster than the older 950. Troubles with the Apple drivers are making a comparison between the two hard at the moment, and things may improve slightly with time.
Frame rates, even at lower than native resolutions are poor (like 10-20 frames per second on games like Quake 4).
This link will give you some idea of how slight the improvement is: http://www.barefeats.com/mbook2.html

Macbook Graphics Card Change

I have a early 2008 white macbook with an Intel GMA X3100 graphics card inside. Lately, many of my programs have become slow, making me think that my grahpics card is too old. Is there any way to change out the current graphics card in my Macbook for a newer version?

what programs are you talking about, it could be that your hard drive is getting full and you don't have enough RAM. The slowness you talk about might not be related at all to the graphics, unless you mean streaming video from the internet or real-time 3D racing or airplane simulator type games, of course.

Looking for Macbook Graphics Card Upgrade

Hey,
I recently saw a Graphics Card Upgrade Kit for a Macbook Pro and was wondering if Apple offers a Graphics Card Upgrade Kit for a Macbook.
Thanks,
Nevin

Welcome to the discsussions!
The graphics chipset is integrated into the logic board and cannot be replaced or upgraded.
Are you sure you saw one for the MacBook Pro and not the Mac Pro desktop tower?

Macbook graphics card

i have the macbook and am trying to run final cut but it wont let me with the intergrated graphics card has any1 got a sulution to this

There is some info in the below link that may be of use to you. It pertains to Aperture and the need for certain minimum requirements required for it to run. Apparently that information is stored in a file called Info.plist and can be edited so that Macs which do not meet the minimum requirements can still run it.
I don't know if this would work for Final Cut (I don't own a copy) but it may be worth your while to look into it.

Updating Macbook Graphics Card Drivers

i have tried playing warcraft 3 using the macbook as it is. and it is pretty crappy. i think if the drivers were updated it would run more smoothly.
i was wondering if its possible to upgrade them?
i know its an integrated chipset and w/e but is there anything more i can do as far as software upgrading?
Mac OS X (10.4.7) 13" Macbook 30 Gig Video iPod

for now the updater for graphic card should be in the 10.4.7 or 10.4.8 updater.
Go to blizzard sites and download patch and updater for wIII (ver 1.20?), it might help too.
Good Luck.

MacBook Graphics Card Capability

My question is about my graphics card. I hope I'm in the right thread?
I have the newest version (purchased Sept. 08) of the black MacBook. It's totally maxed out (for its time). Here's the specs:
- OSX 10.5.7
- 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
- 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
- Chipset Model: GMA X3100
My question is, will this MacBook with that graphics card play the game Spore? If so, how well?
Thanks in advance.

according to the amazon pg for the game, the X3100 is the bare minimum on a Mac, so it should work...
