  • Is $1299 entry level 21.5 inch 2013 iMac good enough for a novice to learn Logic Pro?

    I am wondering if the standard entry level iMac is good enough to learn Logic Pro. From what I have researched the top of the line 2012 Mac mini is more power full than the entry level 2013 iMac and I would end up paying more for the iMac. But I am also thinking about how the new 2013 iMac has the new haswell processor which is supposedly better than the ivy bridge on the 2012 Mac mini (I do not really know about any of this I am just going off of what I have been researching) so the 2012 Mac mini may be more powerful than the 2013 entry level iMac technically but maybe the iMac will run more efficiently because from what I hear it does not get as hot and uses less power or something. Also, should I wait for the Mac mini to come out with a refresh with the has well processor or will I be fine with the current 2012 Mac mini with the ivy bridge processor. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. P.S. Does anyone know exactly just how much better if at all the haswell is than the ivy bridge because if it is not that big of an improvement I would just get the current top of the line 2012 Mac mini, as I really would like to get started on learning Logic Pro.

    The latest top of the line Mac Mini is much more powerful than the latest bottom of the line iMac..
    It is much easier to add your own memory to a Mac Mini than an iMac... and much cheaper!
    More memory = better performance
    Mac Mini 2.6GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 + 4GB RAM = $799
    Add 16 GB RAM from Amazon for $160
    Total = $959

  • Dictation on my new iMac has stopped working on both the internal

    Dictation on my new iMac has stopped working on both the internal & external microphones. Any suggestions?

    Does the onscreen microphone come up but it doesn't convert speech to text? Or does the onscreen microphone not appear at all?
    In System Preferences > Dictation & Speech > Dictation, is the microphone set to "Automatic"? You might try setting it to "Internal microphone" to see if it works.
    Have you tried restarting the iMac?

  • HT1338 HOW CAN I SPEED UP MY MAC IT HAS A GRINDING SOUND AND THE COLOUR WHEEL SPIN AND FREEZES

    MY IMAC HAS A GRINDING SOUND AND ITS SLOW, THE WHEEL START SPIINING AND IT FREEZES I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF AND ON AGAIN , WHAT IS THE PROBLEM AND HOW CAN I SPEED IT UP AND GET IT TO RUN FASTER?

    Does the sound appear to be from the hard drive, such as when you do any work (which means the hard drive is being written to)?
    Have you received an email from Apple about their Seagate hard drive recall (for certain iMac models)? Check to see if yours is affected here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/imac-harddrive/
    In any case, a grinding noise is what I had, followed by other very strange behavior and the diagnosis was hard drive failure. So, whether you are covered or not, I would strongly suggest that you backup all your data as quickly as you can and - if you're not covered by warranty or the recall - book an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar for a diagnosis.
    Also, please do not use all caps - difficult to read and it's considering shouting on the internet.

  • MDR-1RBT static hiss on the right side

    My MDR-1RBT makes a low but noticeable static hiss on the right side. It comes and goes, but is audible most of the time. Is this normal behaviour of the MDR-1RBT? I love the headphones, but the hiss is a bit irritating when listening to audio books etc. 

    Please follow the troubleshooting steps here if the sound is cutting in and out on one or both sides of the headphones or is experiencing static hiss.
    However, if none of the steps will work, please reach out to Sony Germany who has a separate community which can be found here for best assistance.

  • My screen has a blank section on the right hand side of the screen

    since installing updates my screen has a blank section on the right hand side which remains on start up and operation

    Hi @Graham1957 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that the display has a blank area on the right side, after some updates were performed. I am happy to help with this.
    The quickest thing to try would be a system restore.  Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8)
    Choose a restore point from before the problem started, and let me know if this makes any difference. If not, then please post the full product number and verify the operating system in use on your notebook. See the following documents if you need help in finding those.

  • Regza LCD HDTV 52XF550U has wide black stripes on the right side

    Hi, my 2008 REGZA LCD 52XF550U has wide black stripes on the right side.  I think the problem started within 24 months from my purchase.  And the stripes are getting wider. 
    I have tried to reset the setup, power off and on, all to no avail.  See attached picture.
    If someone can shed light on this problem and its (preferably permanent) fix and approx. cost, it will be greatly appreciated.  I could simply chug this Toshiba LCD and buy another non-Toshiba HDTV, but I think that would be wasteful if it can be fixed. 
    Regards,

    After you install Apple driver to enable the audio chip, YOU then need to manually download and install (Cirrus or Realtek audio depending on the Mac).

  • My ipad has a tiny chip on the right corner can it be fixed and how much will it cost?

    My ipad has a tiny chip on the right corner can it be fixed and how much will it cost?

    Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
    The warranty will apply to the country of purchase. And if there is a problem needing repair you have to return it to the country of purchase.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
         If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)   
    iPad model
    Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
    iPad mini
    $219
    iPad 3rd, 4th, Air
    $299
    iPad 2, iPad
    $249
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
    Make a Genius Bar Reservation
    http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    You may can get the iPad repaired at 3rd party repair sources for less $, however, any remaining Apple warranty will be voided.

  • My macbook pro It has remained without sound and the connector has a red light

    my macbook pro It has remained without sound and the connector has a red light. The analogic sound doesn't work. Thanks for your attention...

        Plug in and  remove the headphone.
        If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
        in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
        Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
    Best.

  • No sound through the left speaker - MBP Retina Early 2013

    Hello guys,
    I am having problems with my macbook pro retina 15" early 2013.
    The problem is that the left speaker does not give the same amount of vollume compared to the right speaker. I have had this macbook for about one and a half month and am very carefull with it, looking for dirt etc.
    Does anyone have an idea what I can do? I don't know if i can go to the apple store here in Holland, because i bought the MBP in Dubai...
    Thanks in advance.

    First check System Preferences>Sound to see where the balance setting is.  If in the center, make an appointment at an Apple store for a diagnosis by the Apple store genius bar technicians.  The Apple warranty is worldwide so it should not be an issue.
    Ciao.

  • HT5048 My iMac has v10.7.3  I cannot find "Messages" on this computer

    My early 2008 iMac has Version 10.7.3 but does not have "Messages" on it.  It does have iChat.  My early 2008 MacBook Pro has the same version of Lion but it does have "Messages"  Where can I go to download "Messages" for my iMac.  It is infinitely more useful than iChat

    Messages is still in public beta testing.  You can download it from here:

  • HT1338 since updating to mountain lion i have noticed a considerable decrease in the performance  of my iMac - most notably when loading pages on the internet.  Is this common and is there a fix?

    Since updating to mountain Lion, it's like being back in the 80's taking 30 seconds to load a page?  Is this common or are there any ideas?  I've checked my router and my ISP are all in order.  Whilst the mac is wired to the router, everything else in the house is running fine off the wifi network.  I am not very technically minded so any help is appreciated.

    Which model and version of iMac do you have, AND more importantly, How many GB's of RAM do you have?  Mountain Lion has shown itself to be very memory intensive in operation and the bare minimum amount of RAM to achieve any system speed is 4 GB's, according to other Forum users' experience, and mine.  And more RAM than that speeds it up more.
    Hope this helps
