Multi-Touch on MacBook Pro with Logic

Does anyone know how the new mult-touch pad works with Logic? I heard the enter buttons were removed. If this is true, I'm wondering if this makes navigation easier or difficult.

I went to the Apple store to check out the new MacBook Pro. They didn't have Logic loaded, so I was only able to test in GarageBand. I only tried a couple of functions, but from what I could tell, the multi-touch functions are not active in GarageBand. No one at the Apple store knew how the multi-touch functions works in Logic. At this point, I'm assuming it doesn't work. Also, it was good to know that the multi-touch functions can be disabled so the track pad works as normal.

  • Hello.  I have a MacBook Pro with Logic 9 which currently is at 32 bits.  How do I upgrade to 64 bits?

    Question:  I have a MacBook Pro running OS 10.6.8 and Logic Pro 9, set at 32 bits.  I would like to upgrade to 64 bits.  How do I do that?
    Thank you very much.

    Well, I'm beginning to have my doubts about that.  But is there a way I can check to see for sure?  This is a vintage 2007 MacBook.  I just had to replace the logic board & the HD, & now Logic Pro doesn't recognize any of my sound programs/libraries/plug-ins.  Any advice is appreciated.

  • Macbook Pro and Logic 7.2

    Hi,
    I want to upgrade to Macbook Pro (2.33GHz & 2G ram) .
    Anybody use Macbook Pro with Logic 7.2 having problems?
    What Monitors under US400 do you recommend?
    Thanks a lot.
    Cheers,
    Edta

    macbook pro all the way.......
    my current project has approx 14 virtual instruments (incl 3 sculptures, 3 battery3's,2 cameleon 5000's and a miroslav or 2).......approx 50-60 audio plugins and 10 audio tracks........
    the meter in logic is wavering at the 50% mark, and with the audio streaming from an external lacie 7200 to fw 800, my audio is registering as next to nothing
    i am still far from needing to freeze tracks...everything runs smoothly
    oh, by the way......the above readings are with the audio buffer set to 128, so that i can record my guitar with as minimal amount of latency as i can get away with
    i love this machine
    mac pro is obviously the 'and then some' option, but don't feel you will be losing out with the mbp
    as for speakers....i have alesis mk2 powered (all i could afford at the time), and i will wait till my monitoring environment is more 'conducive' at some point in the future....i find i get a clearer and flatter response with my grado 325's hanging off my head
    good luck

  • HP 1312nfi Multi-funtion printer & brand new Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard

    Hi,
    I just got my Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard May 2010. I can only print and fax with my 1 year old HP 1312nfi color laserjet multi-function printer. I cannot SCAN at all. I tried loading the software that came with the printer but it wouldn't install the 'Print Director' as I had on my old iMac (with Leopard). Then I went to HP and it said not to install the software that came with the HP printer because Snow Leopard has it all. I read that there are 3 ways to scan from my computer which none of them work. I brought up the printer then clicked printer setup and when I try to bring up the 'print utility' from the last tab, it won't open anything. Where is the printer utility now? Why can't I scan? There has to be a way. HELP please?

    Found the answer on the HP site. It's the original software that works with this printer OS X 10.6!!

    It's available in the App Store as a digital download. You do not need a disc to install software.

  • Hi! is it possible that Logic X has upgrades that work only with mavericks and does t work in mountain lion....since in my macbook pro with mavericks i have new views of the equalizer, etc and in my mac pro with mountain lion it still the old view...

    Any OS version of 10.8.4 or later has all features that are not OS depended. The plugins are one example. You probably haven't updated all versions of Logic Pro X to the latest one.

  • An Intel iMac AND a MacBook Pro for Logic Pro?

    I am torturing myself over this issue lately so any input you guys could offer would be welcome!
    This is the situation:
    After 3 months of serious debating whether to purchase a 20" Intel iMac or a MacBook Pro for Logic Pro, I went ahead about 3 weeks ago and got the iMac. My reasoning behind this was that even though I found the portability of the MBP very desirable, the iMac simply represented a better value with the big screen and bigger hard drive. Since getting it, I must say I love this machine and I have not had one single problem with it. Logic 7.2 runs like a dream on it. By the way, aside from maintaing my iTunes Library, occasional iLife stuff and web surfing with Safari, this iMac is for music production only.
    But here's the problem:
    Still, I can't seem to shake the desire for OCCASSIONAL portability. Keep in mind, I am only a "serious" music hobbyist; I create instrumental hip-hop, trip-hop, electronica style of music mainly with software instruments, loops and breakbeats. So needless to say, I don't tour or do a lot of travelling. But the prospect of being able to compose tracks or make beats in Logic anywhere is DESIRABLE to say the least. I could compose while sitting on the couch watching a game or laying in bed - even though I have no idea of how often I'd actually do that, just having the ability to do it is VERY APPEALING to me. Throw in the fact that the iMac currently shares deskspace with a PC that my wife uses - meaning that I often have to stop what I'm doing to let her use the space. With a laptop, I could move and still continue my flow. Lastly, I unfortunately have bad knees and a bad back so after a couple of hours (or 3 or 4) of sitting at the desk working on Logic, I am seriously hurting. Not comfortable at all. At least owning a MacBook would give me the option to move around to some place more comfortable if I desire.
    So...
    Even though I recently bought a wonderful iMac that works great, I'm seriously considering getting a 1.83 MBP with at least 1GB of RAM and the 100GB/7200 RPM drive to accompany it just for the portability factor. Sure, I could get a used G4 PowerBook or iBook, but all I own is the Universal Binary of Logic Pro; I would have a hard time accepting the decrease in speed I've gotten use to on the Core Duo. Besides, I inherently have a problem buying something (even used) that I know is old and out of date when the latest and greatest is available.
    So here is the $25,000 question: Am I nuts for even considering this? Am I placing too much of a premium on the portability as I would use it?
    This could easily be justified if I was a working musician on the road, but that ain't me. And you can believe that I'm definately not rich and thus don't have money lying around.
    But I have obsessed over this so much lately, I feel that I almost have to get it just to put my mind at ease! I even briefly considered putting the iMac on eBay and just buying a MBP to replace it, but I love the screen real estate I get with the 20" iMac and I question if I'll be truly satisfied with a 15.4" screen FULL TIME. 17" might be better, but I doubt if I can wait until June for them to arrive. In addition, everything would connected via my wireless LAN and .Mac so file sharing should not be an issue.
    Help!!!
    What would you do? Sell the iMac or just get a MBP as cheap as I can?
    Opinions, Please!
    20" iMac Core Duo, 2GHz, 2 GB RAM, 250 GB HD, 128MB VRAM   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    I love the portability my powerbook gives me. You can use a PB in your setup. You can run an external monitor for either PB or MBP. You can node. Universal Binary menas it is an application which has the components written for both PPC and Intel chips-so you don't need to do conversion. Nodes won't require you buy a nother license. so the answer is down to how much the 2 upgrades and 1 crossgrades will set you back vs how much use you'll get out of them. IMO the iMac is inexpensive (I mean that in a good way-worth hooding on to). Maybe just look at a refurb PB unless you really have the extra cash.

  • MacBook Pro died, can I restore back up from previous OS to New Macbook Pro with Mavericks on it?

    My son's (grad student) MacBook Pro's logic board went out two weeks ago. We have a new one coming tommorrow, which has Mavericks.
    His back up from the older computer has the previous operating system - is he going to run into any problems restoring his data with the different operating systems?

    You shouldn't. That's the reason for having a backup.
    The best way is to use Setup Assistant when you get the new Mac. For details read this from the late Apple Support Communities contributor Pondini:

  • I have a 2006 15" Macbook Pro with a broken Superdrive and my external USB one just quit working

    Why can my LG Portable Super Multi Drive (GP08NU6B) burn discs, but not read them? Right after I burn a DVD successfully, I stick it back in the drive and it says "The disk you have inserted is not readable by this computer"  I have a 2006 15" Macbook Pro with a broken Superdrive, and this external disk drive is the only optical drive that worked via USB.  This external drive was bought in 2010 and worked fine up until a month ago. This is supposed to be a Plug and Play device, and LG assures me the drivers are already included in Mac OSX,  yet it seems somehow my Macbook lost the drivers and it won't let me watch DVDs now or recognize any discs at all!
    How can I find and somehow reinstall the firmware for this optical drive?

    Sounds more like a hardware issue to me.

  • What exactly does the AppleCare cover for MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    I purchased the extended protection plan for my MacBook Pro with Retina Display 15" and my question is what exactly does it cover in what kind of situations (i.e. viruses, damaged ports, damaged charger, etc.)? I want to be able to take full advantage of the protection plan since it was a pretty big whole in my wallet.

    AppleCare covers all the problems you have with your MacBook Pro with Retina display and the peripherals which came with it (your charger) if you have a hardware problem that you didn't cause. For example, after 2 or 3 years and 1000 charges, OS X says that your battery has to be replaced: in this case, you have to pay for the battery, because batteries have got a lifetime, and Unibody Macs batteries have got an average lifetime of about 1000 charges.
    However, if the RAM gets damaged and you haven't done anything to cause it, you will get your computer repaired or replaced for free. AppleCare in a MacBook Pro with Retina display is very important, because near all the parts are soldered into the logic board and repairs are expensive

  • FaceTime Failed: Calls between iPod Touch and Macbook Pro

    when i try to place a call to someone who has FaceTime on an iPod Touch, she says she doesn't receive any calls and i get eventually get a "FaceTime failed" after a few rings. if the other party calls me (i'm using MacBook Pro with OSX Lion 10.7.1) and i answer, at first, it will say "Connecting..." then it will then show a "FaceTime failed". We both powered off our devices to no avail. Any ideas?

    Somehow, it just fixed itself.

  • I cannot mirror my macbook pro with my tv,there is no tab to select in display settings

    i cannot mirror my macbook pro with apple tv,there is no tab to select in display settings

    That's because the mirror setting, known as Airplay does not work with Mac OS X 10.7.5.
    You need 10.8 or later and a
    AirPlay Mirroring is available with iPad 2 or later; iPad mini; iPhone 4s; iPhone 5; iPod touch (5th generation); and iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer) with Mountain Lion.

    Note, Mac OS X 10.9.2 has issues with Airplay, and is the only really secure version of 10.9 at the present time.

  • Macbook Pro with Retina display overheating

    I just bought a 13.3" Macbook pro with retina display yesterday and it's been overheating like crazy. Right now I have only Chrome open with this page and it's uncomfortable to put this computer on my lap right now. I watched youtube videos last night and I could hear the fan, when normally this machine is extremely quiet. I'm afraid that because this computer runs so hot, it's going to damage the display. Is there something defective with this machine, or are all the ones in this model the same? Should I get the regular 2012 model instead? 

    I bought my Macboook Pro with Retina Display laptop during Christmas, only use it about < 10 times because I have other MACs that I've gotten used to. 
    OSX 10.8.2
    15" Retina display
    1.8 GHz Intel Core i7
    4GB 1333 MHz DDR
    A month ago, after not using it for several weeks, I picked up the laptop to move around.  Wow - the box was hot like it just came out from the oven Literally - this macbook pro was not used at all - just laying idling, no programs used and was sitting in a dark corner in a room, not exposed to sun or any heat or warm area.  I wasn't motivated in using it since.  So, it was left laying around the house again.
    Today, my son tried to use the laptop - when he touched it, he jumped 'ouch' as the laptop was hot for no reason. Again, not exposed to any warm elements or anything that is running that could have caused it to be hot.
    I should have read all reviews on here - I now resented not returning this macbook pro notebook.  I don't have time to go back and forth to the Genius and sitting at the bar waiting and wasting my time for something that I just paid and expect it work properly and not wasting my time.  Please do something to help regain my confidence in Mac products.  Not happy here!  I guess I'll have to sit at the genius bar anyway.  But just want to chime in that I have the same Macbook Pro overheating problem.

  • My MacBook Pro with retina display got extremely hot while closed an in a carrying case

    I have a new Macbook Pro with Retina display.  I left my house at approxomately 6 p.m and I took my macbook pro with me.  I put it in a protective Incase sleeve which I put in my messenger bag.  When I got to my final destination about 1 hour and 40 mintutes later when I went to retrieve my macbok the entire messenger bag was hot.  When I went to get the macbook out of the sleeve the actual computer was so hot I could barely touch it.  I could even smell the computer (you know that new comptuter smell) standing a few feet away from it in a cafe that his good ventilation.  When I left my house the battery was at 100% charge.  When I discovered the computer in this state I had to hold down the power button to get it to start.  When i logged in the battery was at 47%.  I discovered that I left iphoto, chrome and microsoft word open.  Should I be concerned?  The machine was so hot that I can not imagine that if this turns into a reoccuring issue that it won't damage the computer.  I wonder what would of happened had I not discovered it. 

    When it gets to a certain temperatue it would have gone into thermal shutdown, from your scenario it looks like your machine failed to enter sleep mode or power nap due to some applications that was holding it up.
    as this machine was inside a sleeve and still running the machine couldn't dissipate the heat and ramped up the fans to attempt to cool itself hence the battery drain.
