New system for CS5.5? Some advice please?

Hi- I am getting a new system built specifically to work with Production Premium CS5.5.
I'm afraid I know next to nothing about hardware!
These are some specs that the guys in the shop said would work?
Do you have any comments- will it work? Any better suggestions?
Many thanks

There are several major problems with that build:
1) The two WD Green hard drives are too slow for video editing. They spin at only 5400 RPM, not 7200 RPM.
2) The i7-950 and X58 combo is about to become obsolesced by the new LGA 2011 Sandy Bridge-E platform with the X79 chipset.
3) Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.x still does not support OpenCL GPU acceleration at all. In fact, the GPU accelerated mode requires an Nvidia CUDA GPU with 896MB or more VRAM in order to even work at all. As a result, the ATi GPU-equipped systems will run CS5.x only in software-only MPE mode, which is much, much slower than the GPU accelerated mode. In other words, the HD 6770 will be equally as slow as integrated motherboard graphics (as far as performance in CS5.x is concerned).
4) Windows 7 Home Premium will not see anywhere near the full 24GB of RAM. In fact, that OS is capped at 16GB of RAM total. You will need Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate in order to use more than 16GB of RAM.
5) That 600W PSU is nowhere near powerful enough to run a video editing system of this class. In fact, that OCZ PSU is not even that good quality-wise. You will need a reallty good quality 750W to 850W 80-Plus Gold rated PSU.
In other words, the guys in the shop know little to nothing about the stuff that they sell.

I am new to LR and needs some advice please

I have been using Raw shooter and have been shy of going over to LR.I am not a hugely knowledgeable user nor that technically minded. I purchased Scott Kelbys, and Martin Evenings book on LR and am learning as I go, I have been reading several threads on this site and I am concerned about all the negativity I am reading about LR being buggy, with problems?
and how it seems that Adobe are not doing enough with LR to address any such issues? I am a canon user and issues relating to Canon raw are a particular worry. I am about to put my entire collection from Raw shooter ( On External LAcie drives) into the hands of LR in the future. Is this a wise decision? Please help.
Also I want to get started if it is the right thing to do, my PC is getting on abit, with 4 yr old tech inside and only 1gb ram. I will soon get somthing more powerful with 2-4 gb ram. my second question is this. I will be running my libraries on external drives only ( LAcie F.A. Porsche).
If I have imported my images without moving folders, with LR 1.2 loaded on my pc. If later I remove LR from it and reload onto a new PC will it see all my libraries again and know all my settings again without issue and without having to re-do everything. If that is the case then I had better wait until i upgrade the Pc, before I start any work with LR, which will be frustrating.??
Apologies for a long question, but I am technically challenged. If anyone can assist me in these areas I would be grateful
Paul Apps

LR is not buggy and it converts Canon RAW files just fine. I run LR on a PC without any significant issues except speed. LR is too slow in some areas (importing images, browsing thumbs and previews, in particular) compared to other programs such as Photo Mechanic and ACDSee, but it is very stable on a clean computer. Many features need improvement but hopefully that will come in time. Meantime LR is quite good and I bet you will like it. There is nothing better overall.
You should never risk your images to any software or anything else. Keep a backup copy of your originals separate from the copy you use for LR or other software. Plus LR is a non-destructive editor (pixels are not changed) so your images will be quite safe.
As Tomrock said you can transfer your database to a new computer without difficulty. I do recommend a new computer, a 4 year old machine with 1gb RAM will probably be frustrating. Other folks say that a quad core processor and at least 2GB RAM is the way to go. My 2 year old dual core Pentium with 4GB RAM is definitely too slow for LR. You might also consider switching to internal hard drives in your new computer and use your external drives for backups. Internal drives for your images and catalog file will be much faster.
Also Tom's advice about importing a few images at a time and then testing how things work is very good. It is definitely a mistake to import a huge volume of images until your are familiar with LR. It is very easy to delete a small catalog file and start over since a few hundred images imports quickly.
Good luck.

New Computer for CS5. Recomendations?

I have just read about the Premier Pro requirement for 64 bit only operating system for CS5. I have CS2 and they tell me that CS5 will be the last time that I can get an upgrade price for new software. I will obviously need to get a new 64 bit ready computer for this change. Only certain graphics cards are listed as supported for the new rendering engine in Premier CS5. I just need a basic new computer that will run CS5 decently for the entire suite (going master this time). Like many lone graphical enthusiasts, I am trying to do it all myself with the adobe suite (web, print, photos, videos, flash) for my future customers.
Basically, I would like to have your bare bones recommendations on a new single user computer for CS5 that will fulfill the 64 bit requirements.
Thank you,
Richard

I know that Adobe has not released an official hardware recommendation list. However, they have unofficially released many hardware specific recommendations. This is just one article that mentions some:
http://www.brightsideofnews.com/news/2009/12/14/adobes-mercury-playback-engine-for-cs5-is- cuda-only!.aspx
In this article, it states a very specific hardware necessities for this mercury engine.
http://cs5.org/?p=594
I am not looking for Adobe to give me a specific hardware recommendation for CS5 and I thank you for telling me enough information to know that I definitely needed a new computer. But, now I'm kind of left in a limbo area of knowing that I need a new comp without knowing what to get. Obviously I have a lot of research to do. Judging by the huge list of widows issues over apple issues with the suite, it makes me think that Apple is the way to go. But I would rather not go that route as it really does not provide a “better” computer, just a more stable platform from what it seems.
Could anyone, give me a recommendation, it doesn't have to be official. As well, do I have to install my copy of CS2 before being able to upgrade to CS5? Because people have many many posts below this one where they are having problems doing this? The answer to solve the problem is simply, “get an upgrade”, well I'm working on just that, however, it must also involve a 64 bit computer upgrade as well. I basically have to get a whole new setup ad there are many many posts here of others who also have gotten new setups for CS4 and they are having many issues.
Are there new hardware recommendations for CS4? Perhaps I should look there first. Should I just go Apple? Do I need my old copy of CS2 to install in order to be able to install CS5 on my new computer?
Thank you again and any recomendations are appreciated.

After Effects CC only - Purchasing a new system for....

Getting ready to purchase a new system for After Effects CC. I create 3D effects, video effects and many animation effects small scale for website development and YouTube. I have been considering a system with Xeon E5-2697 V3 processor (14 cores, 3 GHz Clock), 16 GB RAM, 1T SR-HD, and of course a NVIDIA GTX-GPU Cuda video card. Would this pass the system requirements for After Effects CC? Any other recommendations? I do not want to experience the slow downs that I am currently having with my i7 intel system.
Thank you
Alexandra Parks

....Eric may have the most expert advice on this topic....he builds machines at ADK for what you are talking about.
You may want to ask him about Haswell E...AE requires CPU clock speed, many cores, and large system memory. Also, a fast, separate drive for the " global performance cache" is beneficial. The GPU use is less than what is used in Premiere ....a solid GeForce card like the NVidia 970 may suffice. Eric can advise

Best $3K off the shelf system for CS5??

for us newbies...what
would be the Best $3K off the shelf system for CS5??
thx

ok...dell and hp steal
you blind on necessary upgrades...is the customer support and "security" offered by
them a good enough trade off with the "build it yourself/have it custom built" danger of not knowing what to do if/when things go wrong?
i am just looking to do low level (but high quality) professionasl stuff...i.e. budget weddings/training/memorials/recitals etc. and feel i am not far enough along on the high tech learning curve...but moving as fast as i can.
ALSO...and maybe this is another conversation...but:
is the miniDV tape (for SD and HDV) about over now and are we comletely into the "tapeless" video era?
thanks for all your help.

Need some advice on a new build for CS5 Web Premium

I am looking for a powerful PC that I can use mostly for work and some light video work. I have been looking at several systems, but I can't decide if I should get the Core i7 875K, 950 or AMD 1090T for my needs.   I typically have many Adobe CS5 applications open at once like Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Illustrator and Flash, iTunes, Quickbooks, Microsoft Work and Excel. I would ideally like to buy a pre-built rig, but I can surely put together if better. Below are a few I have been looking at, but I am unsure about cooling on one of them and about the 875K processor on the other one. I figured a gaming PC would be fast and powerful as my needs are behond a standard base config. I would like some advice also on a good video card. Been looking at crossfire ATI HD 5770, single ATI HD 5870, Radeon 6870, and GeForce GTX 470 and SLI GTX 460. I am not a typical overclocker, but I can be if it will help performance running apps. I leave my PC on all day and night so cooling is a factor.
Thanks in advance everyone for the advice on this.

Here is the final config I am looking to get. I am just debating the hard drive config and video cards. I want to be sure my video card will use teh GPU Accelleration and Advance features of Photoshop CS5. Do you know if the NVIDIA GTX 460 is compatable or should I spend more for the 470? I will not be gaming much and this pc is used mostly for work on CS5 Web Premium. How does this all look? All prices from NewEgg. I have another machine I will backup sata to each evening, so I really want a fast drive for program load and operation and another drive for data. What is best way to config drives? Should I get 2 of them and an SSD?

Can I possibly get some advice please?

Hi,
I've been researching, and trawling through the web reading articles regarding OS X Server and wondered if I could get some solid advice on my current situation.
We currently operate a Windows Small Business Server 2003 and have five client machines accessing the domain for email, calendars and contacts. Our current network consists of:
1 x Windows Small Business Server 2003 (with 400GB tape backing up Exchange 2003)
1 x Windows Home Server (acts as a 2TB file server with hotswap backup. It has 6TB in total, with 2TB main system and files, 2TB Raid and the final 2TB mirror is taken offsite each night)
1 x G5 Mac (snow leopard and entourage)
1 x iMac (snow leopard and entourage)
1 x Vista PC
1 x Vista PC
1 x Vista Laptop
1 x Colour Lazer Printer
1 x Lazer Printer
Now are at a point where our SBS server is getting quite old and we're also moving premises and employing an additional 3 people. We also need to kit out a boardroom.
I mapped out what I thought was a suitable setup and would love to hear from any experts if this is a viable solution for us.
This is what I had in mind:
1 x Macbook Pro (Snow Leopard)
1 x Macbook Pro (Snow Leopard)
1 x G5 Mac (Snow Leopard)
1 x iMac (Snow Leopard)
1 x Mac Mini (Snow Leopard, the the boardroom)
1 x Macbook (Snow Leopard)
1 x Windows 7 PC
1 x Windows 7 PC
1 x Time Capsule (2TB)
1 x Windows Home Server (File Server 2TB (6TB total))
1 x Mac Mini Server (Used for Email, Calendars, Contact and an iChat server. Backed up to the Time Capsule.)
Our new premises has a 1GB Network throughout so we don't really need to reply on wireless.
We're a design agency and as you can imagine we work on quite large files. Since getting the Windows Home Server as a new file server we have noticed the odd lag and also Mac users not being able to save some of the files they're working on (due to some weird message saying the file is locked!).
Like many people I'm just after a solution that works, without constant tweaking and messing around. Plus I'd like to bring our IT support in-house and the new Mac Mini Server seems like a possibility for us.
Any advice or coments you can give with help us greatly.
Thanks

You have listed a G5 Mac currently and proposed to run Snow Leopard. G5 is a PowerPC, and does not run Snow Leopard. Could this be an Intel Mac Pro, which uses a very similar metal cabinet?
It is not clear from your description whether you intend to keep a Server running Windows for your Windows Home Directories, or whether you would switch to a Mac Server hosting Windows Home directories as well as Mac Home directories. In a school environment, Apple suggests a second server if you are hosting home directories for more than 150 simultaneously connected users. Your two-server solution may be overkill.
The server-on-mini is an interesting idea, but if its Disk Access is slow, it will punish every computer on your network. For a commercial environment, I suggest you host your Server on a computer more expandable and capable of faster disk access than a mini. Using a Mac Pro for the Server would allow you to run faster drives and optionally add software RAID Mirroring on the Home directories to improve uptime. Using an Xserve adds the capability of remote status monitoring with the actual Server locked in a closet somewhere, but is much more expensive.

Still Have v. 10.4.11 but am configuring a new MBP and I need some advice..

hey-
I am replacing my 3 year-old MBP which never made it to the Leopard stage, because I was chicken. This one is going to be cleaned up and given to a family next door from a real poor area of Mexico and until they saw this had never seen a notebook. So I am excited about this.
anyway, I am configuring a new MBP together and I have a few questions that are probably pretty basic, but still questions. I should have thought of this before, but is getting a new MBP with Snow Leopard installed on the machine (and I was old by the support guy who helped me with the configuration since it will be used for a graduate school of architecture, planing, and preservation program too.
any feeling on jumping from 10.4.11 (which I guess is Tiger OS X) to Snow Leopard and totally bypassing Leopard? It sounds like Snow Leopard is pretty much a major "update" to Leopard, but that is probably wrong. (Just a side questions, what does the Operating System OS X mean and do all of the operating system have OS X or did it start at OS 1 and will keep going up?)
Is there a time when a person who wants to try and focus on school or other important things can pretty much be sure that a new OS has had sufficient time for the major bugs to be worked out and most likely can feel safer about making the purchase than if they had not waited and did not really care-thinking that Apple would get them fixed and the updates would fix the problems? I do not tend to think this way, but in this situation I am going out a bit from my usual "way" and living or should I saying hoping that this has happened and is true? Does that make sense? So, any feeling if SL has been out long enough now that Apple has had a chance to make sure it is doing well and has pretty much been integrated into the hardware and properly functioning of the notebook as a "single unit?"
thanks in advance for any feedback and I apologize if the wording was incorrect or I did not explain myself clear enough.

You should not find it hard to jump from using Tiger (Mac OS 10.4) directly to using Snow Leopard (Mac OS 10.6). Some things are a little different, including a few changes to system preferences & how the Finder handles changing views from one folder to the next, but it is fundamentally the same from a user interface standpoint. In fact, there are very few interface differences you would notice between using Leopard (Mac OS 10.5) & Snow Leopard.
What you will most likely notice the most when going from a 3 year old MBP to a new one is that its response is substantially quicker: startup is quicker, apps open faster, Finder tasks complete in less time, etc. This is due both to the more powerful CPU & other components in the new machine & to the new OS, which is more efficient than previous ones.
"Mac OS" is the generic name for Apple's proprietary operating system that runs Macintosh computers. There were versions 1 through 9 of this operating system, starting with the one developed by Apple for the first Mac that appeared in 1984, but the first version to get the "Mac OS" designator was Mac OS 8, released in 1997. It was followed by Mac OS 9, released in 1999. All of these versions can be considered decedents of the first one, with strong family resemblances both in their internal structures & graphic user interfaces. Mac OS X is much different internally, incorporating many components of the venerable UNIX operating system first developed in 1969 at AT&T's Bell lab, plus a graphic user interface update (named "Aqua") more suited to its greatly improved capabilities. It is not a "pure" UNIX variant but instead a synthesis of UNIX & Apple's old & current technologies.
Each major revision of Mac OS X has had a cat name & a "point number" like Cheetah for 10.0 or Tiger for 10.4. Each revision has brought new features to the OS as well as under-the-hood improvements. Unfortunately, these improvements come at a cost in terms of legacy support. Some applications require revisions to work with each new major version, as do some of the drivers for external hardware. Generally speaking, fairly current apps & hardware drivers have gotten or will get revised for Snow Leopard if needed, but there are no guarantees that all ever will.
There are also bugs in every major OS release from every OS maker. Generally, these are obscure, affect few users significantly, & are eliminated in updates released after the first major version, but even the updates can introduce new bugs. Snow Leopard appears to be more bug free than any prior Mac OS major release, but the possibility exists that some bug will affect you in some critical way.
That said, the chances of this are low, & you should not read too much into reports here of problems unless they are widespread & describe very closely the same problem. Keep in mind that there are already several million copies of Snow Leopard in use; any really widespread problems would result in tens of thousands of complaints & probably make the evening news as well.

Looking for a web font - advice please

Hi, I know this isn't a DW question, but I'm hoping somebody might be able to guide me.
I'm looking for a font (preferably on google fonts) that resembles Edwardian Script. If anybody knows off the top of their head a font that is similar, could you advise me please?
Thanks.

Most hobbyists and bloggers sites could probably fly under the radar with unlicensed fonts. But commercial web sites could be in for a whole heap of litigation woes. It's not worth the risk for something so trivial.
Please cite a case where a commercial website was sued for violating the fonts license? In UK Harrods tried to sue a coffee shop for using Harrods fonts and they lost with heavy legal costs. Fonts can never be patented and people are free to use whenever they can.
Some bully boys will try anything but people have to stand for their rights. I am currently in dispute with easy Jet because I have registered one website with name like easy XXXXX. Now they tried to bully me for using the word easy and I challenged them to sue me. Their solicitors wrote to me and intimidating me and I won the first round. They are appealing and so the case continues. The court has decided that I should not promote the website until the appeal is heard but in the meantime, I have notified easy jet the revenue I am losing because of this restrictions. The court is aware of this and if I win the case, I shall be entitled to millions of pounds in compensation due to lost revenues.

Hi Alan Parrock,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are not able to restore the iPhone. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Rhunter22,
your EtreCheck report isn’t showing any obvious suspect. If you boot into Safe mode and log in, does your MacBook Pro behave similarly then?

Hi Every1, I am new here and could use some advice!

Any1 out there have any suggestions for some1 who shares a Verizon account with a control freak future-ex who behaves like he is punishing me for not< "snapping to" when ordered to do so?
See, he went out for a drive one night to clear his head! He came home the next day at about the time when he knew I had a doctors appointment. He ran out on our son and I and moved in with his girlfriend! I didn't know he had a girlfriend!!! My son and I were crushed and felt discarded. Well, we got over that and now having problems because when future ex left us, he made himself manager of the account which requires permission from him to do almost anything. Both, our son and I have asked for permission and in the case of our son, help resolving an issue with the smart phone he is having trouble with! He behaves like the typical control freak! Initially, he was going to peel off of our original account and open an account of his own. But I am betting he found out if he separated himself from our/my Verizon account, he would loose our grandfathered unlimited data plan!
The future ex also upped the minutes on this account to 1400 minutes a month and it's really annoying because he was always in our faces about not going over our shared 700 minutes for the last seven or eight years. We all, at one time or another, went over on minutes and we temporarily had to up our minutes for that month we went over. As soon as that billing period was over, he would make certain that he switched the minutes back ASAP.
Anyhow, he will not give permission for us to do anything in that account. That includes me being able to register a replacement phone that I had to purchase because I blew the screen out and who knows what else, on my incredible on Christmas Eve when I dropped it on Sam's Club cement floor and the phone case basically exploded! Well, funnily enough, the phone itself still charges thru USB connected to the desktop. It also rings when a call comes in and alerts when i get vm. I can hear it linking to the desktop with the two note bong bing or disconnecting it from the desktop and it alerts with the bing bong. It also syncs with the computer because it was set to sync before I killed it! It doesn't respond to anything to do with the screen but I suspect the impact snapped something on the case, not just the screen not illuminating!
If I could afford to, I would open my own account and chalk it up to experience...just to make things a bit more stressing for me, his income was two-thirds of our total income and he will only pay for the Verizon account, our homeowners insurance and his home depot card. That is until recently when I told my financial institution that I had canceled my draft for the automobile insurance and had the financial institution contact him, as well as the insurance company, to tell him that I have it in writing, from when he first left, that he would pay both insurance payments. He attempted to let all that go by because I wound up with other troubles as my social security check was cut almost in half by an error in their system which has left me upside-down by $809 and cost me approximately $690 in NFS fees against my account! Social Security is the only income I have as I am disabled and have a hard time going out to get groceries! Being without my smart phone has been a real challenge as there are some days when I cannot get out of bed! Watching television all day is depressing to me when I don't have a choice!
Sorry this is so long but I want to make certain I don't omit anything and misrepresent myself and cause anybody to go, "hey, why did she say that"! Yeah, that is what happens when you choose to live with an abuser! Five nights after he left, he came to pick up some of his property and brought his girlfriend with him. Not arrogant at all! That instigated an atmosphere of non-cooperation from me and some things happened! I will spare you all the details because there were too many! He wound up assaulting me and two teenage boys who were helping me carry his stuff out to the sidewalk, as agreed upon by both my husband and myself in advance. After he assaults us, he called the cops, I cannot figure out why other than to say he always feels like he is justified doing anything he pleases. The cops wound up arresting him for assaulting us! He had all kinds of trouble after that and although I told him I didn't press charges and neither did the boys. The State, County and Town did. No non-sense policy here and he was dumb enough to call the police after assaulting three people and ever since then, he won't cooperate on anything for me!
I hope some1 can help me! I did call Verizon and explain the situation but they keep telling me they can't do anything to help me because of the privacy act!
So I am stuck without a phone and I feel really vulnerable without it!
Thanks for reading this and i promise to be short and sweet in the future!

I agree with jim, there's no need for all the details. If the "future ex" is paying the bill, and his name is on the account, then legally, he calls the shots. If you can't live with the terms, then give him back your phone and your son's, let him decide what to do with those lines. And do as jim suggested - go get a basic prepaid phone that will keep you connected for minimal (affordable) cost.

Some advice please, BlazeDS and some ideas

HEllo all,
I am planning on building an app out, that has two versions, viewer and admin. The admin will be allowed to upload images, and then display an image of choice on the viewers page, and be able to change these images at will, with the viewers page automatically updating.
Kind of like a daynamic image sharing thing.
Now i have been doing some research in how to do this, and stumbled along BlazeDS, and am wondering if something like this is possible with Blaze, i know it can support sending and recieving text based messages really well, but dose it suppose images in the same way ?
Any advice would be great !

hi,
You would still use the messageing system of blaze to tell a user an image has been modified then tehy would download it again, much the same way we did with the video app you would have a key word in the message that triggers a dowload event.
For instance a user uploads an image when the event complete is fired it feeds a message to the server "imageUL:image001.jpg" the serevr then posts a message to all clients "imageED:USR:image001.jpg"
when you get the message it fires the download event because ther first 7 characters ="imageED, the character between the colons is the user id so if you where the one that updated the image you would not proceed to download the image.

I have CS5. Would this run as smooth on the laptop or I would see a decrease in performance (and if possible how severe that would be). I am tempted to get the laptop as I allready need one for when I am on the move and meet clients, and after that geting a screener for my old rig would not be a big problem. Am sorry that the info is not in english, but most of the datas should be easily readed.
Many many thanks, can't wait for your replies / advices.

Hey Scott, my friend uses this laptop for his work, and had no problems at all - performance related, but he also uses CS4 edition not CS5. I am not sure if there is a big difference between the products related to hardware requirements / performance. The laptop above runs very smooth otherwise, no noise, no heat, lovely display.

New system for CS5.5? Some advice please?
