NOT SURE WHICH APPLICATION I WOULD NEED - CONFUSED

I am considering purchasing a Photoshop Software. Just started taking courses on line.
I would like to be able to work with photos along with creating jpegs for now.
Later on, I would like to learn how to create simple animations. I have many other smaller
editing programs, but always wanted to learn one of the photoshop programs.
I have Windows 7 and Windows 8. Kindly advise the first one to start with and then
the software later on for the animations.
Thank you.

I think it's a no-brainer, you can still get the $9.99-per-month subscription to Photoshop CC which includes Bridge and Lightroom and 20GB of cloud space and a Behance portfolio website. That deal runs out in 4 days so you should jump on it now. You can always add Flash or After Effects later once you start advancing in your skills, but to be able to have the FULL Photoshop environment for 10 bucks a month is a clear winner IMO.

I am trying to install a new printer and I am not sure which application to use?

I am trying to install a new printer with the external CD rom drive on my MacBook Air. When I load the disc it is not allowing the program to run as it is stating that I have the wrong application to do so. How do I install things from the external CD Rom?

What model printer is it?
It is unlikely you need its installation CD-ROM at all.
Mac 101: Printing (OS X Lion)

IMac slowing down, not sure which application or process causing this

Please see below the report of my iMac, any help highly appreciated... I am a novice user, kindly keep that in mind...

HT1349 help I would like to authorize my new laptop for my itunes library I had 5 authorized computers on my account not sure which ones they were one of the autorized computers has crashed so i want to transfer all of my account history onto my compute

my acct. shows that I have 5 authorized computers for my itunes acct. not sure which 5 but I do know it is not my new laptop. our main home computer that I use for managing and adding to my music library may have crashed . so I deauthorized all 5 computers (that was my only choice). I was then hoping to authorize just one computer (my new lap top), I was then hoping that my entire music library would then show up via my itunes/apple account where is it ?
How can I transfer my entire itunes acct. history onto my new lap top? any suggestions? or how can I recover my music library off of a potentially crashed computer?

You can deauthorise all 5 at once, then reauthorize the one you want.
Learn how to authorize or deauthorize your computer with your Apple ID.

You need to log into iTunes on the computer you want to deauthorise. Otherwise, contact contact iTunes Store support to see if they can help.

Not sure which way to go for transfer.....

First; let me say that I did search for the answer to this, but I'm not sure which way to go with a lot of the answers. I'm sorry I'm asking this question for the umpteenth time. Yes; I'm one of those that understands enough about computers to make me dangerous...
Our computers are set up on a home network. Before I got my iPod last year, we ripped all our CDs and saved them on a completely separate external drive named "M" (for music), so all 3 computers could have access to the information on the M drive.
I get my pod & have the office computer set up to be the 'main' iTunes location, since we purchased a USB2 hub for it. I quickly learned how to direct iTunes to 'pull' the music from the M file & understand how all that works. Life is good. I even took the time to put an album art file on the M drive & insterted everything into iTunes by 'hand'.
Bless my hubby's heart. Completely filled with computer envy, he just purchased me a brand spanking new shiney computer. Needless to say, with all these new bells and whistles, I can now use my computer as the 'home base' for all things iPod/iTunes instead of having to go downstairs to do updates, etc.
I looked up & printed out "How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer" from the Apple web site, which basically says to download everything onto my iPod's harddrive & do the transfer on the new machine.
I think what I'm trying to ask, is since all the music is located on an external drive:
When I download iTunes to iPod harddrive, are all the tags still in place? Will all the album art be correct, so when I download it onto the new computer, everything will be identical to what's on the old computer?
--or--
Is there another trick I can do to have everthing the same on the new computer?
--or--
Am I better off just having my computer go to the M drive & upload all the music onto my new computer & reload all the album art by hand again?
My real hesitation on this method is I have a lot of things on the M drive that I changed the tags on in iTunes, & I would really hate to go & search through everything again & redo what tags I can find wrong.
I know that this may sound like a lot of trivial questions, but with over 6,000 tracks, I'd really like the process to go as smoothly as possible.
And once again; I'm sorry if this seems like just another 'how do I transfer' question. As I was reading the search results, I didn't notice anything that dealt with external drives being involved & I don't know if any of that makes a differance or not in all of this.
Thank you SO MUCH for your time!!

Not sure which direction I should be heading

I'm going to drop a lot of money on equipment sometime during the next six months, and I'm really not sure which direction I should take this. As I see it I could either go with everything hardware, or I could go with Mainstage. Basically, what I want is to get the sound of me and my keyboardist up to snuff, as it's currently not that great.
What I'm thinking of getting for now:
Hardware route:
Nord Electro 73
a magically great guitarfx
Software route:
Mainstage
M-Audio Profire 2626
Midi foot controller
Macbook Pro 3,06GHz 4GB RAM
As you can see, the Mainstage route will be more expensive. At the same time it will offer more flexibility, and the ability for more bandmates to join in in the future.
Keyboardist will use the following sounds:
- Piano
- Rhodes w/ effects
- B3
- Clavinet
- Solina
- Strings
- (Maybe some C64 SID-sounds)
I guess that's it for now.
Guitarist (me) will use:
- Overdrive
- Amp simulator
- Delay (I know this takes a lot of processing power, so only one or two delay-fx simultaneously.)
- Other, typical guitar-fx.
If I go hardware I'll go with a multi-fx, but I have yet to find any that will let me tap the tempo on one patch and then keep that tempo when I go to the next patch, so they get kind of limited.
We will both be playing at the same time, and latency is important. I want to use it at 16bit/44,1KHz, as I guess that's the lowest I can go. I want to be able to play with 32 sample buffer. At 64 samples the latency gets too long. I guess I could get used to it, but the day I try to run my bassist or other guitarist og lead vocals or backing vocals through Mainstage I don't want to have to excuse the latency.
Is it stable enough? I plan on using the computer as a Mainstage-only laptop, not installing anything except Mainstage and maybe a few plugins. It'll normally not be connected to the internet, with Airport turned off.
There's probably a lot of stuff I've forgot to mention, that I might think of later, but the main question is; which route would you go in my situation? Hardware or software?

Stability will be risky on mainstage. Some people have no problems, other have lots of cpu issues.
I've been running one keyboardist and a backingtrack loaded into exs24 and have had one problem during a show that required a reboot.
EXS24 stopped playing a backing track twice as well - which was pretty major.
I'll be using playback for backing tracks and will not be sending my guitar through the computer. We will also have a drummer playing now, so if the computer breaks, we'll lose keyboards and will be able to continue on and end a song.
I think it's an acceptable risk for the flexibility and cost savings - since I already had a laptop and all the midi gear. And I try to accept a bit of glitchyness as it's a new program. Hopefully that will be changing over the next few months - as this latest version seems more stable and updates should add to that.
If I were a major act playing large shows, *I would not be using it*. And if it continues to cause problems, we'll be looking for something else.
I used the logic environment for our last band. We had three keyboards for three separate people - that worked pretty much flawlessly.

So what? The second-hand shop you bought it from didn't follow the right procedures. You also didn't follow the right procedures to make sure that iPhone was not in Activation Lock. It's like buying a car for cash but not getting the title signed over to you. It's not your car if you don' have the title. And that's not legally your iPhone if the previous owner's Apple ID is still registered to the device for Find My iPhone/Activation Lock.
Only a proof of purchase from the ORIGINAL retail store would do any good at all. Return the device to where you bought it and demand your money back. If they refuse, either get a lawyer and/or turn in the device to local police. If you're in possession of stolen property, then the cops won't care about where you got it from.

Looking to buy my wife a Mac, not sure which one

llooking to buy my wife a Mac and not sure which one, she has a windows 7 , any suggestions?

Impossible to answer without any details. How does she use the computer? What would she like to do on a new one?
Windows 7 is not a computer, its an operating system. It can be an excellent computer rivaling a Mac or be bargain basement offering outdone by even the most modest Mac.
Laptop or Desktop? Large screen or small? Features? Price range?
So without any real context there's no way to say what you should or should not buy. Or what that Windows 7 computer can do currently, so as to suggest a similar offering from Apple.

Not sure which laptop to buy

I'm in the market for a laptop and I'm not sure which one to buy. I plan on using the laptop for my iTunes account, my sister's iTunes account, my pictures and the occasional use of Microsoft Word. What I'd like to know is how much RAM do you think I need? Thank you for taking the time to respond

How much memory does Word and iTunes needs? In general 4gb should be enough for a laptop.

[Solved]Setting up arch with Geforce 610m, not sure which drivers

Just as the subject states, I'm on an asus k53sd with a nvidia geforce 610m gpu and I'm not sure which drivers to install. I believe nvidia from the official repo is a necessary one but what else? There was also an intel based driver but I need to edit in what was since I can't remember.
Last edited by cj360 (2013-10-21 22:37:21)

a GTX 610M is definitely not a legacy card. The 9800GT is, but yours definitely isn't. My laptop has a 480M, and still will be supported by the main drivers for a while. Even the 280 is still supported well in the latest drivers.
You are very likely using Optimus as pointed out by circleface. Especially as you mentionned using an Intel driver, I'm pretty sure you are on an Optimus laptop (like they almost all are since the past 3-4 years). Read this: Optimus and this Bumblebee. You need a special configuration to have it work, involving optirun and prismrun.
You probably don't really need nvidia-xconfig especially if using Bumblebee. I think it does that by itself when it starts so you don't need to configure the hidden xorg server.

I converted some songs in iTunes to work with an eMusic device. I'd like to delete them, but I'm not sure which of the duplicated songs to delete. Some titles are black and some are gray.

let's just doublecheck some things quickly. do any of the affected songs play in itunes at the moment? if so, when you play them, do they ask to be authorised?
if so, does the authorisation go through successfully, or do you get an error message? (if you get an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
if the authorisation seems to go through successfully, with the authorised songs sync to the ipod?

Since recently updating (either Pro or Reader, not sure which), i cannot open PDF's without downloading them first. not sure how to fix!

I updated, and now i can no longer view any files on the web without downloading them first. it's very frustrating. want to go back to the way it was, but not sure how.

You shouldn't need both Acrobat and Reader. That aside, I suggest trying to open Acrobat and using Help>Repair. Also check the plugins or addons for your browser.

I tracked down the problem with the download and installation, my windows 7 was missing a file and after reinstalling windows everything worked out. The first 32 bit program in their list was used. I hope this can help others.
