On Mac  Have 2.1 want to add 2.3 - Best Way?

All,
I think I know the answer but wanted to double check. If I just do the update, I think the process will take my 2.1 installation and turn it to a 2.3 installation. If I rename Lightroom 2 to something else, 2.3 should be able to be co-resident, correct? I just don't want to lose 2.1 quite yet. Thanks in advance.

Tom,
OR... :-) I may just wait a couple of days and see how 2.3 fleshes out. Seemed like there were too many issues with 2.2 and 2.1 is working great for me. Thanks again for replying.
Jay S.

    Your iPod can only be synced with one computer at a time.  If you try to sync it with a new computer/iTunes library, it will replace the contents of the iPod with whatever is in the new library. You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabling the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
    Before doing anything else,  authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account.  In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials. Either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.
    Then right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
    iOS: How to back up
    Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc.  For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases.  For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier.  Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.

    If you do happen to lose any purchased content, you can always redownload it from the iTunes Store again at no cost via iCloud.  See this article for information.

  • I have CS3 web standard. What is the best way to add Photoshop CS 3/CS4

    CS3 web standard works perfect for me. I just misses Photoshop. Perhaps you know the best way to solve this problem.
    Because if I buy an upgrade, it'll be a Studio.
    Second qustion: What does a Studio mean and where can I buy a studio?
    Thanks!

    I thought Web Standard included Photoshop. In any event, you can't just upgrade one component of a suite you need to upgrade the entire thing.
    Even if you just wanted Photoshop CS5 you'd have to buy a full license for $699. PS Extended will run you $999.
    Upgrading to CS5 Web Premium (there is no standard) will cost you $795 http://amzn.to/92gG02.
    Before you go that route, however, you may want to consider Design Premium for $780: http://amzn.to/8XRD7M
    I have an article on my website explaining why I think it's the best choice: http://www.theindesignguy.com/purchase-advice.shtml

  • Hi, Please help. I accidentally deleted my entire Iphoto Library. I used Stellar Phoenix 4.1 and I do believe that I recovered all. I recovered to "My Passport" for Mac External HD. Files are all mixed up, best way to import back?

    Hi, a couple days ago, I was orgainizing my Iphoto libray. Then, I thought that I was emptying my trash on Iphoto. (the ones I deleted when orgainizing) after hitting are you sure button, I realized that it was 209 files with 18,000+ photos. So I frantically stopped iphoto from "saving critical information" thinking If I left it open I could copy all my files over to (I beleive somewhere in finder under pictures?) I thought, but it most have been under the applications folder. Well this is where I really messed up. So after saving every file to that section, and everything was normal again on iphoto, I decided to make space and delete them from where I put them. So instead of selecting each file indivually, I used the select ALL button. Only to find that it deleted EVERYTHING. Iphoto (the file) was apparently at the bottom of the page along with Nikon Transfer, Lightroom 2 and god knows what else. That is when I found a data recovery software program (Stellar Phoenix 4.1mac) 17 hours later it found 159GB. I read enough to know that I HAD to go and buy an external HD. (even though I already own Time Capsule, but I never hooked it up ) was confused about if I could actually use that for this matter so, I just went and bought My Passport an external HD for Mac. Plugged it in, and recovered what looks like all my files (hopefully) did also read enough that I knew NOT to use my computer after this occured.
    Now that you all know how I got into this mess, I would like to know the best way to import the files back? Ok I know this sounds easy, but all the files are scattered everywhere on the HD. Is there a way to put them back on my Mac Book Pro that would possibly put them in some kind of order? Date? Image file number? Anything? 18,000 photos to reorgainze is going to be brutal. I can reinstall Lightroom 2, if i can locate where I put the disk. And I also have CS5. Also wondering if the quality of the photo was affected?  I did get them back, so I am not complaining but any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
    Will be turning on Time Machine and hooking up Time Capsule as well. Should I also use my new HD along with capsule? Any advice on that matter would also be greatly appreciated as well!!!!!
    Thanks, Michelle

  • I have all my music on an external hard drive.  It is on iTunes on my old Mac mini, which cannot support the new OS, which in turn means I cannot get iTunes match. I have a new Air. What is the best way to get my music where I want/need it?

    anybody have any idea how I should get that music from the hard drive to the air without having it docked all the time?

    If you have iTunes Match, you don't need to use Home Sharing.
    Can I get that to work through Home Sharing?
    No. iTunes Match gets your music from the cloud. You upload from one computer and you can then downlaod to the other computer.

  • Have Design Standard, want to add Flash.  Options?

    Hi.  I am interested in working with Flash.  I was planning on adding it when upgrading to CS5, but for all I know that could be the fall, and I would prefer to get into it asap.
    As far as I am able to tell I have three options -
    1) $799 Upgrade to Design Premium - is there any way to pick this up for the difference in package price?  I understand doubling the upgrade price encourages Premium sales up front, but, c'mon!  I have seen copies on eBay for slightly less, but not much.
    2) $699 Flash Standalone - Pointless, as an extra $100 also buys Dreamweaver and Fireworks.
    3) Buy Design Premium, Sell Design Standard - I have seen (apparently) legit copies of Design Premium on eBay for ~$750, and it seems as though copies of Design Standard sell for ~$500.  This is the least expensive option.  Is there any reason I couldn't sell our copy of Design Standard?  I imagine it can be 'deactivated' or maybe the license can be transferred?  I don't know, I haven't dealt with this before.
    Is there is anything I am overlooking?  Any options I am unaware of?  What would you do?  Any help is most appreciated, thanks!

    I have the same issue and haven't found any real shortcuts regarding pricing. However, in my case, I'm willing to wait for CS5, be it April or October, or whatever, and upgrade at that time.
    Your third option may have some difficulties. If you upgrade to Premium I don't believe you can go out and sell your Standard edition, legally. Licenses usually are transferred during an upgrade - you don't pick up an "extra" license when upgrading. That's my laymen's understanding.

  • Have DVI monitor - want to add VGA monitor - what adaptor am I needing?

    Well, Ii am at my office - not at home where my PowerMac is and I am wondering what adaptor I need to purchase in order to connect a second monitor to my G5?
    I am already using my DVI port for my 19" monitor.
    Surprise! When I tried to use my DVI - VGA adaptor (reaching behind desk scenario) it wouldn't work and I quickly realized, "Hey! That's not a DVI port :-|"
    What kind of port is it and where is the best place to get the adaptor?
    Thanks guys

    I don't think there are many companies making these, but there is no reason another brand shouldn't work. If you can't find an ADC to VGA adapter, you could buy an ADC to DVI adapter
    <http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wo/2.RSLID?mco= E1A673E1&nplm=T2774G%2FA> to connect your DVI monitor to the ADC port, and use your DVI to VGA adapter to connect your VGA monitor to the DVI port. Don't try an ADC to DVI followed by a DVI to VGA to connect the VGA monitor to the ADC port. ADC to DVI adapters may not pass through the analog signals needed by a VGA display.

  • I want to give away my old Mac Powerbook G4 to a friend, what is the best way to cleanly do this?

    I want to give away my old Mac Powerbook G4 to a friend. Ideally I'd like to get my iphoto/itunes library deleted, but am afraid it will delete itself on my new MacBookPro as well.  This would be tragic.  Ideas?

    If you used the migration assistment then your data will be okay.
    I (and most of the people here) would strongly recommend you reformat the computer before giving it to anybody

  • Recent software upgrade has changed the way my iPhone syncs with my macbook, and diary items no longer upload from my iPhone. I've tried a to fix it and seem to have made things worse. What is the best way to get the two devices in sync ?

    Recent software upgrades has changed the way my iPhone syncs with my macbook and items entered on my iPhone are no longer uploaded to my macbook. I've tried to fix it and seem to have made things worse, my iPhone now has a long list of calanders that I don't want and can't delete and nothing is uploading to my macbook.

    You need to look at Mac's iTunes, check  > System Preferences > iCloud.
    If you use iCloud for Calendar, Contacts then turn off those items in iTunes, Info tab with your iPhone connected and selected.

  • I have a newer Sony FS100,  What is the best way I can get my footage into a workable format?

    It does not appear as an available camera during import mode, and when I try to import my video files any other way they are dimmed out and i can't even click on them. I should hope there will be support in the near future for this camera but until then, is there another application that anyone can suggest that will let me at least work with the video I have?

    Nick -
    This was my first "big" problem for the last 3 days with iMac and FCProX and my new Sony FS100. To make a long story short: Buy the latest versions of ClpWare amd install it (se end of this note). I got it yesterday after a lot of not-useful inreaction  - an then some *very useful interaction* - on this forum.... (and solution came after I began writing to the makers, Divergent.com) -  they knew IMMEDIATELY what was to be the solution for me - and told me/lined me to a (new?) version available that, when I got it, fixed all my SONY FS100U import / AVCHD/MTS problems. I was really overjoyed.
    To get there took almost all day. But I'm a giant step closer, now. Honestly. That is STEP ONE: get the proper version to import your files...it gets MUCH easier to work with the product once you have the native import issue resolved. Lots...
    So, I imported everything from the hi-speed SanDisk 32Gb card, finally, and in beautiful quality, just using the defaut "REWRAP" settings. (I have yet to try to import via the Pro Res or ProRes Proxy settings - but mabe today I will try...time and ENERGY permitting). I feel I need a day off from all of this, completely, after 3 days of angst and disappointment...but ultimately all which lead to a GREAT outcome. So for me it's [next] onto STEP 2: experimenting more with the product features, mastering more of them; outputting the size clips w/effects. etc and quality I want.
    This IS a different animal. But I still suppport it and its advent.
    One thing at a time...it is a huge learning curve since I am actually  working with 3 new technologies all at once (actually more  - that have nothing to do with FCProX video, directly...just indirectly....which I won't get into) - but again, below is the link to a FAST middleware transcoder (ClipWrap) that will get your AVCHD files into your Mac. Hopefully it's a fast Mac.
    I benchmarkd yesterday on both my Intel core5 iMac (very fast) vs. a slower MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo (?) - both have 8 Gb DRMM;  anyway - while the import worked just as well on either machine -  seemilngly just about as quickly on the MBPro, too...the playback from that laptop wasn't as [quite] perfect after rendering a clip, out with defaut settings (to keep things simple, for now)....but that ALSO may be because I decided to play devil's advocte while I was at it and imported/exported both the same AVCHD files to an Firewire 800 external HD on the MBPro, and secondly, re-imported. re-rendered and re-expoerted same clip to the MBPro *internal drive*...just to see what might happen in quality or playback speeds of a re-render. While both worked, the playback (via the "422 and H.264 codec output" experiments I did with the same, short 1.06 min. clip - but with  NO EFFECTS/transitions with that one, (unlike the iMac verison wich I loaded down, every few seconds, with numerous transitions) - the 1.06 min. test clips WERE, not surprisingly, different in playback. The AVCHD imported to and exported from the MBPro internal HD was a bit more "acceptable" in quality...but the import/export from my much faster iMac (internal HD)  tops everything. Hands down. If I do get a Thunderbolt machine...which I MIGHT, God willing and back account still permitting...I hope that new TB 15" fully-qoutfittd MacBook Pro I now have my eye on will result in still-better throughput - and NOT introduce a whole new layer of problems. God - I hope not...then there is LION coming...sheesh! What [new] problems might THAT indroduce???
    One needs to experiment a lot here, but once you are able to get the files in from the cam (finally, and easily) - things start to get way better. After that...it's the learning curve of what input / output settings/decsions suit your needs. That is the NEXT BIG curve ahead...for me at least.
    I really do like FDProX a lot..a REAL lot...but obviously, like allof us, I am still learing it.
    There is a lot to learn, obviously..just read along in this forum! FCProX has its own big "internal" curve to master, when it comes to details.
    I found and have been able to use the Precision Editor.. got a first-ever finally and easily) import of several AVCHD native clips "edited"...but got jumbled up - somewhere - (?) in the Precision Editor  - and over-duped/dubbed some of the part of the clips I cut up to see what would happen. So the end results with that clp were messed up to say the least...but it did output beautifully...I am still confused about the auto/background renderering and o-going "transcoding and analysis" issue....I sotp it and render out to QT format anyway..it seems to work...tho I id end up with the last moments of the PRditor version misssing the last few seconds...which I did OT deliberatelu splice out and delete!!
    Just plain old trial and error...now. Obviously I did something wrong (easy to do in a program as new as FCProX)....but again : I have YET to print out the manual or even read a page of it. So for that - considering how far I've gotten (a "surface scratch" only, still, to be honest) - it's a testament to what the program DOES do by iteself for you that helps you SOME with that learning curve...it's refining the editing/final cut output process for me, now - getting past the kinks or not-obvious pitfalls...I get there...we all will and we'll help one another along....and getting an output that looks and works the way I/we planned for in the final analysis.
    We're all stil learning here. Esp. me. I am out of energy. I've been asleep for the last 6 hours...and am headed back to bed. In 10 minutes!
    Here is the link to purchase the apparently tweaked and PROPER ClipWare version ($50  - worth it!) - and comment from Divergent; as noted: so, in review - I purchased it yesterday, that solved my AVCHD 1080p60 FS100 SONY cam/raw clip import issues and SAVED THE DAY - for now:
    (https://store.divergentmedia.com)  - "you'll receive a serial number which will unlock it after you buy it. It'll automatically update to the final release of 2.4.2 when we release that (after Lion ships)", from what I was told by Divergent.
    Best of luck,
    Mike

  • I have some custom html5 tables, what's the best way to insert them in to Captivate 8?

    I have four html5 tables styled using css. They function perfectly in a browser - how do I get them into a Captivate slide?

    Hey, I think I’ve managed to crack it. So, I compressed my .html files to zip files. The HTML5 animation feature allows you to import zip files. So I imported the zip files into a Captivate slide and published the project to my desktop. On viewing it worked perfectly – maintaining all CSS. Perfect.
    Thanks for the help,
