Min requirements for Lightroom 3

I Know on the box it says min Pentium 4 etc, but what I was wondering if any body could tell me what the min speed etc would be, as I'm looking at putting it on a Coe 2 Duo 1.3GHz laptop with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4330 with 512MB Dedicated RAM. The reason I ask is that I look at the Elements 8 min spec and that states 1.6GHz.
Thanks

If you have sufficient memory (ideally 64bit and 8GB, but 2GB and 32 bit will work) and a fast hard drive on which to store your catalog (ideally an SSD), that machine should do just fine. Not super snappy and exports could take a while, but I have a 1.2GHz Core 2 Duo running LR and it's okay. Not spectacular, but okay.

The system requirements for Lightroom 6

The system requirements for Lightroom 6 say "OpenGL 3.3 and DirectX 10-capable graphics card for GPU related functionality" I assume that means those or later versions, as my graphics card is Open GL4.0 and DirectX 11.1.

S5200UK more than meets Min Requirements for Win7 but slow and CPU peeking at 100% during IE or NIS

Hi everyone! Previously my S5200UK was upgraded from 1GB RAM to 2GB with a newer BIOS of V3.21
(See http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware/Can-I-increase-RAM-size-if-I-upgrade-the-BIOS/m-p/1302... )
Thanks to Paul Tikkanen's help then I got the machine working fabulously but thanks to Microsoft's decommisioning of XP I decided to upgade to Windows 7 professional. The minimum requirements are 1GHz CPU and 1GB RAM. My AMD CPU is 2.08GHz but its performance is 2.6GHz equivalent. The RAM is 2GB and I have upgraded the HDD to a new Seagate SSHD SATA 1TB hybrid (with 8GB SSD incorporated). I used the exact drive on another machine a dx2000mt and WOW what a difference to boot speed (30sec) 1min with programs installed and data restored. (and that is usable desktop). I also fitted the ATI Radeon 9600 LE 128 MB AGP graphics card as recommended by Paul and a new 500W supply. I did not expect any problems as the 7 upgrade (clean install) on the dx2000mt went like a dream. Anyhow, this is the problem. After installing windows, all the updates and Norton Internet Security (NIS) the machine uses 100% processor and 25% RAM as I attempt to open NIS or use Internet Explorer. I can hear the CPU fan speed up every time it executes any small task and CPU shoots to 100%. With opening NIS there are two nis.exe processes using 50% CPU each! Any small demand of a program results in ultra slow operation. I put Win 7 on my old laptop with 1.5GHz CPU and 2GB RAM and that is great! I cannot believe that this S5200UK machine is limited by the CPU or RAM as it more that meets the requirements. I have obviously installed drivers (most came with Windows 7 and the others from a driver update program). There are no warnings or conflicts in the Device Manager and I have tried reinstalling everything again twice but it is always the same. I even tried changing the HDD to an IDE 80GB 7200rpm one but it was even slower! I also tried removing the graphics card but no change.Oddly I ran a performance test progam and, other than the memory, it came out better that the dx2000mt!!!! Has anyone got any suggestions as to what is causing this?
PS: The o/s is OEM for refurbished pcs on genuine hologram disk (no service pack but this was done via Windows Update) I will be very grateful if anyone out there can save my bacon. Thanks.

Hi:
The only recommendation I can offer based on what you have posted, would be to ditch the Norton Internet Security software and just run it with Microsoft Security Essentials.
That free antivirus/antimalware software uses very few system resources.

You would also need to use the Norton uninstall tool to make sure it cleans out all traces of the program.

Why is 7.2 the min required for Music Purchases Now - and in 10.2.8?

All versions of iTunes above 6.0.5 are for later operating systems (10.3+) I have 10.2.8 and have not upgraded to any of the 7.0 versions because of the OS and video/TV features which I cannot use. Today, I tried to purchase music and it said minimum of 7.2 was required, but there is NO 7.2 version in the main downloads list at all, and certainly nothing compatible with 10.2.8 (except the older 6.0.5). Of course, this means that 7.5 is out of the question entirely.
What is going on? Should I make new music purchases using a different service entirely now? Is this a music store bug that Apple is in the process of correcting for its other customers?

Apple always only has the newest version available on their site. You can download older versions, including 7.2, here: http://www.oldapps.com/downloadiTunesmac.php

What is minimum Internet bandwidth is required for watching movie online on Mac Mini

Greetings Rahuldel,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are looking for information for minimum bandwidth for streaming speeds while watching a movie from iTunes. The attached article give approximate times for downloading a movie from iTunes based on internet speeds. I would recommend downloading the movie before watching it on your Mac mini so there will be no buffering or interruptions.

Does Mac Mini require power adapter for European voltage?

Does mac mini require a power adapter to safely operate on European voltage?

Thanks Anamusic! Since my other Apple products have the square adapters (iPhone, iPad, macbook) it seemed strange only to have a plug cord for mini. don't want to fry it over here in Europe.
You only will need a new Duckhead US-Plug-Type C (2 pin Europlug) for your MagSafe power adaptor. See picture below.
All Apple MagSafe adaptors are mulitivoltage devices and support AC 100V to 240V
All Mac's with build in power supply (like iMac) have also multivoltage units.
Mac Mini uses (depending on production year) different power units, Mac Mini 2011 have a internal power supply, but ALL are "multivoltage".
So you just have to change the cord or use a adaptor.
The above adaptor is suitable for use with Apple's laptop power adapters, and some other products e.g. some iPod, iPhone, iPad adapters. It will however not fit the Mac mini of any generation.
Also, only the MacBook, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air have the Mag Safe connector which is at the laptop end of the cable. The picture you posted is for the wall socket end of the cable. Older Mac mini computers use a proprietary connector, the 2010 and 2011 models use a standard IEC C7 connector.

Mac Mini hardware requirements :for Apple Technician (ACMT)

Hello,
I am needing to purchase a mini mac for the ACMT certification.
I am trying to find out what might be the least expensive used mini mac I can purchase that will run a pretty current OS.
I am needing something that will help me get my cert. I would love to buy a new mini but am not prepared to do that at this time.
Anyone have any recommendations, or is there any websites you know of to purchase a good used mini?
TIA,

Workflow Manager for 10G min requirements

Besides having Workflow itself installed, does anyone know the minimum requirements for accessing/using Workflow Manager (e.g. required installed components, processes/services that must be running)?
Thanks.

We were under the belief Enterprise Manager 10G Grid Control was required. I found and tested that it can be accessed through the "Enterprise Manager 10G Application Server Control" when it's installed properly (see Metalink note: 265554.1).

"The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed..."

I realize my explanation of my problem is long-winded, so if you want a shortened version, here it is:
I've followed all the instructions trying nearly everything, and no matter what I do, iTunes gives me the error saying: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software." My G5 iPod (60GB) works on two other computers (both without any music on them), so I assume there something wrong with my computer and not the iPod itself.
Now for the long-winded story of the last eight hours of my life...
I just got the Generation-5 iPod Video (60GB) a today and I'm having problems already. I followed the instructions and installed the iPod software and then plugged in my iPod (iTunes has been on my computer for a while now). I was expecting iTunes to open after plugging in the iPod, but my device manager only detected and installed "a new device". I manually opened iTunes and got an error saying: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software."
After re-installing the iPod software and iTunes, and restarting my computer countless times, I came looking for help here. I found this page, which seemed to outline my problem exactly. My computer recognizes the iPod as a drive, but iTunes won't have anything to do with it. I have all the symptoms outlined in the heading, so I hoped to solve my problem there. I followed the instructions step-by-step, and after the final restart, I open iTunes to get the same exact error message.
I decided to determine whether there was a problem with my iPod or if it was my computer. I plugged my iPod into my uncles's powerbook, and got to the point where I can name and configure my iPod. I expected it to work flawlessly on a Mac (which it did) but there is no way for me to continue using a Mac (after tomorrow) for my iPod. This formatted the iPod for a Mac, so I went to another (different from the original) Windows computer, clean of any iTunes and iPod software, and followed the instructions exactly as they're supposed to be followed. After the installations, I plugged in my iPod, and although iTunes didn't open, I was able to format back to Windows and name my iPod (a step in the right direction). I should note that my (anti-iPod) computer is a Windows XP Pro, and the working one is Windows XP Home Edition. This was all well and good, until I remembered there was no music on this computer. So my iPod is completely working there, but there isn't anything I can do with it.
Next, I came back here and browsed around the discussion boards, hoping to find somebody with a similar problem to mine. There seems to be alot of errors concerning iTunes not recognizing the iPod, but none of the solutions I tried worked for me, including changing the drive letter. I get the "iPod Service Error" while trying to restore to factory settings through iPod updater.
Of course, I could transfer all 32GB of music from one computer to another, but the second (working) computer isn't mine and I won't have access to it in a couple months. It would be most convenient if I could get my iPod working on my own computer. Any help would be appreciated, especially from somebody who has solved this problem or know how to solve this problem.
P.S.
Here are some other minor details that my be important, but I didn't feel they were worth including.
- My brother has his iPod mini set up on my computer, under a different user login. He gets the same error once in a while, but re-installing iTunes always solves the problem for him. I had him try solving my problem his way, but nothing worked for him either.
- My computer is an AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+, 512MB RAM with Windows XP Pro SP2 installed. My internal hard drive is partitioned, using the letters C, D and H (C being my system files, D used for recovery files and H for my applications and games). My E drive is used as a DVD/CD-ROM Drive, and drives F and G are reserved for virtual drives (none have been running during this entire ordeal). My external hard drive uses the letter I, and I manually set my iPod to use the letter J (I've never used 'J' for anything else before).
- Yes, I have downloaded and installed the latest versions of iTunes and the iPod software.
- I'm assuming there is a problem with my computer and not my iPod, since it worked on both other computers I tried. I'm hoping it's as simple as changing a registry file or cleaning out (yet another) temp directory.

Solution to "Software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed"!
I battled this same problem for about 5 hours. Going through re-installations, the "5 R's", all these discussion boards. Nothing worked.
The problem is that iPodService was repeatedly crashing after minute or so. You can verify this by hitting Ctrl-Alt-Delete and noting that iPodService is missing from the process list (sort by image name), or by right-clicking on My Computer and selecting "Manage", then going to Services and checking out the IPodService service - if it gives you the option to "Start", then it's not running.
Here is what worked.
1. De-install iTunes and iPod (if you have the updater installed) completely by going to Start --> Control Panel --> Add/Remove Programs. Also delete the C:\Program Files\iTunes and c:\Progam Files\iPod\bin directories. (Don't worry, this doesn't affect your saved music files.)
2. Log in as an Administrator
3. Go into the registry (note this is dangerous - you should be careful) and remove the iPod entries that the uninstaller misses.
3.1 Go to Start menu --> Run.
3.2 Type in "regedit".
3.3 Go to HKEYCLASSESROOT --> IPodService.iPodManager.
There are two keys here, iPodManager and iPodManager.1. In my case, I did not have permission to view either of these. I think this is the root cause of the problem. I think the installer can't properly update these because it doesn't have permission. So you need to change the permissions:
3.4 Right-click on IPodService.IPodManager
3.4.1 Select "Permissions..." A warning will appear saying you don't have permission, but that you can change permissions.
3.4.2 On the window that launches, click on "Advanced..."
3.4.3 Click on the "Owner" tab.
3.4.4 Select a valid account (the one you're logged in under) under "Change Owner To".
3.4.5 Hit "OK".
3.4.6 Back on the main Permissions window, hit Add and add the same account as a valid user.
3.4.6.1 Where it says "Enter the object names to select", type in the account name, e.g. "Smith".
3.4.7 Click on the "Allow" checkboxes for "Full Control" and "Read".
3.4.8 Hit "OK".
3.5 Repeat procedure for the "iPodManager.1" key.
3.6 Now right-click and delete both of these keys.
I think that's all that's required, but I also searched through the registry and deleted the following keys.
4. Other keys I deleted:
4.1 HKEYCLASSESROOT --> IPodManager.IPodManagerUI.1
4.2 HKEYLOCALMACHINE --> SOFTWARE --> Apple Computer Inc. --> iPod
I think that's all I deleted, but I'm not positive. I seached for instances of "ipod" using the Find... and Find Next functions under the Edit menu.
5. Exit out of the registry editor.
6. Re-install iTunes. I re-installed iTunes and reconnected the iPod, and everything worked.
I want to repeat that editing the registry can completely mess up your computer if you modify the wrong things, so only do this if you're comfortable, and be extremely careful.
Hopefully this helps!
Apple support people: assuming this works, please add it to your solutions page, and feel free to reimburse me for spending half of Christmas figuring this out.

How can I install Mac Mini drivers for Windows 7 32-bit if I didn't install Windows 7 using bootcamp?

Hello. I have a mac-mini (mid 2010) and with bootcamp, was successfully running XP.
I then decided to upgraded to Windows 7 had lots of trouble installing it on my existing bootcamp partition.
I finally was able to install Windows 7, by just booting off the CD and letting it install that way.
But reading more on it, I think I was supposed to use Bootcamp to do it for me...
I had thought the Bootcamp Assistant was for only fresh installs of a Windows O.S. where no partitiion existed previously.
I had a partition so thought Bootcamp wasn't required for my needs.
But now, inside Windows 7, I have 0 drivers installed. I have an AirPort Express, so on the Mac side, I downloaded
and installed the Windows version of AirPort Utility and copied it to my USB stick. Then
I exported my settings to a text file on a USB Stick, then on Windows was able to successfully install AirPort Utility and import the settings.
But it still doesn't find my network. I am pretty sure I'm broadcasting my SSID...
So I need to know the following:
1) How to know I'm broadcasting my SSID - where do I find this in settings?
2) How I can install my mac-mini drivers on Windows 7 so I can use my existing wireless network, now that I've gone through the installation without using Bootcamp?
3) Do I need to set up network adapters and all that stuff in Windows 7 first? If so, how and what drivers do I need?
One other thing I tried was downloading Bootccamp 4.x and installing that on Windows 7 to see if it gives me the drivers that were supposed to be written to my USB stick if I had installed Windows 7 using Bootcamp in the first place... However I think the message it said was that it couldn't install as it was the wrong version. So I'm still stuck without drivers and therefore no internet.
And that is my main task - getting the Internet up and running in Windows 7.
Other Info:
I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8 with 2 GB of memory.
I installed the 32-bit version of Windows 7 and I don't know what version of Bootcamp I'm running...
I can tell you that BootCamp Assistant is v3.0.4, but don't know if that means Bootcamp is also 3.0.4.
Hope you can help.
Thanks.

I tried something that worked for me...
Knowing that after my install of Windows 7 wasn't the correct method (didn't go through bootcamp), and the BootCamp 4.x package wouldn't install under windows 7, I tried reinstalling Bootcamp 4.x in Windows 7 to see what the exact message was it gave me. The message said it couldn't install because of a 32-bit O.S. vs a 64-bit version of the package.
So that got me thinging - my XP version was 32-bit, and so is my Windows 7 installation. So I tried installing the bootcamp that came with my Mac OS X installation CD. This is bootcamp version 3.1.
Not only did it install, but it practically took care of everything driver-wise for me. I was then able to see my wireless network, enter my password and I was connected. The only thing else I had to do to get on the Internet was bring IE8 online (guess it ships offline by default). Firewall and Antivirus are now installed, just a few more things to go.
That's one thing that's just not clear that I'll be sure to note for next time... The Bootcamp packages you download are actually driver packages for Windows. That is where the Windows drivers exists that are necessary to make your Windows 7 PC work on a bootcamp partition!
I didn't need the AirPoirt Utility at all (at least, I never went into it).
Thanks VikingOSX for your post. I will not need to follow the steps you provided, but they may help someone else as all of these bootcamp issues I've been reading seem to be very unique per installation.
Hopefully my solution helps others.
