New Two Slot USB Mac Reader for P2 at Panny Booth NAB2006
Jan Crittenton mentioned that there is a USB Mac reader being developed that will work with the MacBook Pros.
She indicated it was available for viewing at the Panasonic booth at NAB?
Just another P2 store, or something different at a different price point?
Jan didn't mention price or the difference between it and the p2 store.
Anybody got the skinny on this device?
The one I had at the booth was a five card reader. It was USB 2 and firewire 800. Currently there already is a 5 card reader that is USB 2.0...but they go for $2000...as will the new ones.
Jan did say that they are working on a smaller one...a single or dual card reader. But there wasn't a mock up at the booth that I saw.

I have created a new partition on the Mac HD for Lion as I would like to dual boot. Do I need to install Snow Leopard on that partition before installing Lion? If so, can I use one of my Time Machine backups to do this?

Can I set up 2 different time capsule backups? one for the lion partition and one for the snow leopard partition?
No, you can't partition a Time Capsule's internal HD. Both partitions will back up to the same sparse bundle. keeping the backups for each partition separate.
Time Machine will not take the two OSX partitions as two different computers, but for best results, exclude the Snow Leopard drive from backups on the Lion partition, and exclude the Lion partition from backups on the Snow Leopard partition.
There may be some files on the Lion partition that Time Machine on Snow Leopard won't like, among other things. See #10 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions for details. -

New GTX-7xx / Titan Mac Edition for cMP?
Now that the 2010-2012 Mac Pro's 5.1 have been 'replaced' by the 2013 New Mac Pro 6.1, but there still are thousands of high-end users demanding more and more GPU power in their MP 5.1, I wonder if NVIDIA / EVGA will market a new "GTX-7xx / Titan Mac Edition". The last model is the GTX-680 2GB Mac Edition which is over one year old.
Any insiders in the business here that would like to share their insights?

You have to ask a different set of questions: does it make financial sense for nVidia to bother engineering a down-clocked Titan reference card that can deal with the reduced power available in the Mac Pro? Will they sell enough of them to make it worth their effort? And how much effort would that actually take? -
New iMac 24" or Mac Pro for Aperure
Hi All,
I only can get stock computers in COMPUSA or authorized resellers in PR.
Which one do you recommend for Aperture, the new iMac 24" or the Mac Pro? It looks they both use the same video card...Sadly I have just asked Apple to take back my mac book pro 17" 2.16 because aperture was just to slow and it became annoying, after any adjustments to a photo the loupe tool would jump and jerk across the screen or the patch tool would do the same after around 3-4 patched dust marks, I came across to a mac purely for aperture, which incidently I think aperture is a great tool, if it would only run faster. If the MBP 17" 100gb 7200rpm HD 2 gb Ram and Radion X1600 with 256 mb memory has problems running this software what hardware setup was this programme actually built for.
I will have to stay with my steam driven dell pc until I can make my mind up what to do, I must admit I am impressed by the mac itself and I found the service from apple outstanding, this laptop is my second machine in 3 weeks, first one had a warped top apple took it back and sent another one immediately, having also explained my problem and dissatisfaction with the second they have taken it back with full refund without any hassle whatsoever.

USB CARD READER FOR HP PAVILION 500-C60 DESKTOP?
I have a new HP Pavilion 500-C60 desktop computer, but the front panel card reader does not accept the larger Compact Flash (CF) flash card. I do have an older USB multi-card reader with four differing card slots, one of which accepts the CF card. Would this arrangement work satisfactorly?
Thanks,
shamrock838
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hello @shamrock838,
I understand that your HP Pavilion 500-c60 Desktop PC does not support the larger Compact Flash Memory Card and you are inquiring as to whether or not you can install a USB multi-card reader that accepts the CF Memory Card. First, you are correct the 7-in1 Multimedia Card Reader you do have installed does not support the CF Memory Card, but it does support the following cards:
Secure Digital™ (SD)
Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC)
SDXC
Memory Stick
Memory Stick Select
Memory Stick PRO
Memory Stick MagicGate
I do not see why you cannot connect the 4-in1 USB multi-card reader that you have. As long as the operating system detects it and installs it you should be fine.
I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

2504 with new-architecture enabled breaks MAC auth for guest access
Hello,
We have (2) 2504 WLC running version 7.6.120. WLC1 is the local controller and WLC2 is an achor controller for guest-access. We need to incorporate a 3850 for use with the WLC2 anchor. The guest access is currently working with Mac-Auth and Mac-Auth-Fail to Web-Auth.
When converged access is enabled on the WLC1 and WLC2, the MAc-Auth no longer works. That is, the previously authenticated user is now redirected to the Web-Auth page. The local controller shows the user as authenticated but the Anchor controller shows the state as WEb-Auth-REQD.
Rolling back using "config mobility new-architecture disable" and rebooting resolves the issue.
Does anyone what changes from the old to the new that would break this mac-auth/web-auth configuration?You should reach TAC for these sort of issues. Not many people deploying this CA setup yet & you may not get direct feedback immediately.

New X-Fi USB problem: Signal for sub and centre speaker seem to come through the same channe
.. im not very technical so Ill try and explain this as best to my ability!!
I recently purchased a X-Fi soundcard to use with my 5. surround sound system and I seemed to have a problem as soon as I set it up. When I play any music there is no bass at all, however when I switch the two input cables (centre/sub) over at the back of the sub there is too much bass and it sounds like its just the output for the centre speaker, only coming through the subwoofer and the centre speaker stops working.
I'm on a Acer laptop if this hel
ps.
. im guessing its a problem with drivers as im almost certain the physical setup is ok. Ive tried a couple of other friends 5. setups with my soundcard and exactly the same thing happens.
Im really stumped so any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Jamie?Ive tried looking for an option like this but cant seem to find one. Is it a standard feature with creative sound software?

How do I tab over to a new text field in adobe reader for iPad?
Currently I have to touch each field to select it but it so much easier to be able to tab from field to field while typing. If I press the tab key currently it unselects the field I was typing in and then if I press a second time the whole app closes. How can I change this?
It looks like you are using a bluetooth keyboard. This is supposed to work, but I just confirmed that our current release does indeed exhibit the behavior you described. I'll file a bug and hopefully we can get this into our next release. My apologies for the issue!

Hi anyone.
Can I buy an SD card reader for my old Powerbook G4, OSX, 10.4.11 and it's only USB.
I've never needed one previously but I now need to update the firmware on my camera.
Can I get one, if so which one's best? Many thanks.Hello,
If it is a PowerBook G4 with a PC Card slot, you have two possibilities. You could buy a USB card reader for SD, or a PC Card adapter (such as SanDisk's 6-in-1adapter). Please note that you are or may be limited to plain SD (that is, not SDHC) unless otherwise noted. For a USB reader, make sure that it has Mac support. BTW, is an SD card absolutely necessary for the firmware update; is there not a way of updating via cable? If you post back with the camera model, someone may be able to provide additional information.

I have a mid2009 MacBook Pro running Mavericks for which I have been using a USB WD HD for Time Machine. I'd like to get a wireless HD and start a new Time Machine backup for this Mac and retire the 5 year old WD drive. Can I start over?
no archive/ backup is perfect, HD clones can be set to make incremental additions, same as time machine however, though they are more time involved in doing so.
See the + and - of all data backup/ archives below and "spread it around".... or the "dont put your eggs all in one basket" philosophy.

Data Storage Platforms; their Drawbacks & Advantages
#1. Time Machine / Time Capsule
Drawbacks:
1. Time Machine is not bootable, if your internal drive fails, you cannot access files or boot from TM directly from the dead computer.
2. Time machine is controlled by complex software, and while you can delve into the TM backup database for specific file(s) extraction, this is not ideal or desirable.
3. Time machine can and does have the potential for many error codes in which data corruption can occur and your important backup files may not be saved correctly, at all, or even damaged. This extra link of failure in placing software between your data and its recovery is a point of risk and failure. A HD clone is not subject to these errors.
4. Time machine mirrors your internal HD, in which cases of data corruption, this corruption can immediately spread to the backup as the two are linked. TM is perpetually connected (or often) to your computer, and corruption spread to corruption, without isolation, which TM lacks (usually), migrating errors or corruption is either automatic or extremely easy to unwittingly do.
5. Time Machine does not keep endless copies of changed or deleted data, and you are often not notified when it deletes them; likewise you may accidently delete files off your computer and this accident is mirrored on TM.
6. Restoring from TM is quite time intensive.
7. TM is a backup and not a data archive, and therefore by definition a low-level security of vital/important data.
8. TM working premise is a “black box” backup of OS, APPS, settings, and vital data that nearly 100% of users never verify until an emergency hits or their computers internal SSD or HD that is corrupt or dead and this is an extremely bad working premise on vital data.
9. Given that data created and stored is growing exponentially, the fact that TM operates as a “store-it-all” backup nexus makes TM inherently incapable to easily backup massive amounts of data, nor is doing so a good idea.
10. TM working premise is a backup of a users system and active working data, and NOT massive amounts of static data, yet most users never take this into consideration, making TM a high-risk locus of data “bloat”.
11. In the case of Time Capsule, wifi data storage is a less than ideal premise given possible wireless data corruption.
12. TM like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
13. *Level-1 security of your vital data.
Advantages:
1. TM is very easy to use either in automatic mode or in 1-click backups.
2. TM is a perfect novice level simplex backup single-layer security save against internal HD failure or corruption.
3. TM can easily provide a seamless no-gap policy of active data that is often not easily capable in HD clones or HD archives (only if the user is lazy is making data saves).
#2. HD archives
Drawbacks:
1. Like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
2. Unless the user ritually copies working active data to HD external archives, then there is a time-gap of potential missing data; as such users must be proactive in archiving data that is being worked on or recently saved or created.
Advantages:
1. Fills the gap left in a week or 2-week-old HD clone, as an example.
2. Simplex no-software data storage that is isolated and autonomous from the computer (in most cases).
3. HD archives are the best idealized storage source for storing huge and multi-terabytes of data.
4. Best-idealized 1st platform redundancy for data protection.
5. *Perfect primary tier and level-2 security of your vital data.
#3. HD clones (see below for full advantages / drawbacks)
Drawbacks:
1. HD clones can be incrementally updated to hourly or daily, however this is time consuming and HD clones are, often, a week or more old, in which case data between today and the most fresh HD clone can and would be lost (however this gap is filled by use of HD archives listed above or by a TM backup).
2. Like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
Advantages:
1. HD clones are the best, quickest way to get back to 100% full operation in mere seconds.
2. Once a HD clone is created, the creation software (Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper) is no longer needed whatsoever, and unlike TM, which requires complex software for its operational transference of data, a HD clone is its own bootable entity.
3. HD clones are unconnected and isolated from recent corruption.
4. HD clones allow a “portable copy” of your computer that you can likewise connect to another same Mac and have all your APPS and data at hand, which is extremely useful.
5. Rather than, as many users do, thinking of a HD clone as a “complimentary backup” to the use of TM, a HD clone is superior to TM both in ease of returning to 100% quickly, and its autonomous nature; while each has its place, TM can and does fill the gap in, say, a 2 week old clone. As an analogy, the HD clone itself is the brick wall of protection, whereas TM can be thought of as the mortar, which will fill any cracks in data on a week, 2-week, or 1-month old HD clone.
6. Best-idealized 2nd platform redundancy for data protection, and 1st level for system restore of your computers internal HD. (Time machine being 2nd level for system restore of the computer’s internal HD).
7. *Level-2 security of your vital data.
HD cloning software options:
1. SuperDuper HD cloning software APP (free)
2. Carbon Copy Cloner APP (will copy the recovery partition as well)
3. Disk utility HD bootable clone.
#4. Online archives
Drawbacks:
1. Subject to server failure or due to non-payment of your hosting account, it can be suspended.
2. Subject, due to lack of security on your part, to being attacked and hacked/erased.
Advantages:
1. In case of house fire, etc. your data is safe.
2. In travels, and propagating files to friends and likewise, a mere link by email is all that is needed and no large media needs to be sent across the net.
3. Online archives are the perfect and best-idealized 3rd platform redundancy for data protection.
4. Supremely useful in data isolation from backups and local archives in being online and offsite for long-distance security in isolation.
5. *Level-1.5 security of your vital data.
#5. DVD professional archival media
Drawbacks:
1. DVD single-layer disks are limited to 4.7Gigabytes of data.
2. DVD media are, given rough handling, prone to scratches and light-degradation if not stored correctly.
Advantages:
1. Archival DVD professional blank media is rated for in excess of 100+ years.
2. DVD is not subject to mechanical breakdown.
3. DVD archival media is not subject to ferromagnetic degradation.
4. DVD archival media correctly sleeved and stored is currently a supreme storage method of archiving vital data.
5. DVD media is once written and therefore free of data corruption if the write is correct.
6. DVD media is the perfect ideal for “freezing” and isolating old copies of data for reference in case newer generations of data become corrupted and an older copy is needed to revert to.
7. Best-idealized 4th platform redundancy for data protection.
8. *Level-3 (highest) security of your vital data.
[*Level-4 data security under development as once-written metallic plates and synthetic sapphire and likewise ultra-long-term data storage]
#6. Cloud based storage
Drawbacks:
1. Cloud storage can only be quasi-possessed.
2. No genuine true security and privacy of data.
3. Should never be considered for vital data storage or especially long-term.
4. *Level-0 security of your vital data.
Advantages:
1. Quick, easy and cheap storage location for simplex files for transfer to keep on hand and yet off the computer.
2. Easy source for small-file data sharing. -

what is a good card reader for the new Mac pro?
First this is the MacBook Pro forum, Notebook forum. Do you have a MacBool Pro Notebook or a Mac Pro Desktop?
Anyway any card reader made by one of the major CF/SD/MicroSD memory card manufacturers will work. Connecting to your Mac computer by USB, Firewire (If your Mac puter has a Firewire port) or even Thunderbolt if there are any that connect that way. As for USB connection you won't see much difference between USB 2 or 3. The cards limit the transfer speed more than the connection type. -
