Opening Logic Saves from an Intel Mac on A Powermac

Hi all.
I tried searching for this topic before I posted and couldn't find anything, so I hope i'm not beating a dead horse.
Anyway, me and my buddy both using logic express 7 to collaborate on some music but were having a major issue. I have a Macbook and he has a Powerbook G4. I can open his saved projects just fine, but if he tries to open mine it just crashes logic. My question is - Does my Intel mac save with binary coding, making it impossible for him to open my projects or is theres something else going on here? Is there anything i can do??
Any input would be greatly appreciated

Do you and your friend have the same Project settings (File > Project > Settings) which determine how imported files are handled?

Hi arewers,
Do you have Adobe Reader installed, by any chance? If so, are you aware if it was the PPC or Intel version which you installed? In any case, for the time being, have a quick look in 'HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/' using Finder and see if there's an Adobe plugin lying around. If there is, try moving it out of the folder and restarting Safari.

Does the mail app display whatever is in the document without the ability to differentiate between hidden or non hidden images?
The mail app will not display fillable form fields in PDF files that can be seen in real PDF apps. I say real PDF apps because the form fields in PDF apps will not appear in the iBooks app either. IMO, iBooks is not a real PDF app.
So, I would say that the mail app cannot differentiate between hidden and non hidden items

Its possible to open an app from IOS on MAC?

I have a med app on iphone that i want to open on mac to study. since it have small letters and a lot of stuff, it would be much easier if i open it on mac.
So, its possible to open an app from IOS on MAC?

No. The iPhone and Mac are totally different hardware architecture. Software compiled for one will not run on the other.

Logic 7 Pro on INtel Macs with 10.5 and Protools 7.4.2

I'm trying to install all of this
Pro Tools works
Logic (CoreAudio) WWorks
I can't get showing the 'DAE' and 'DTDM' tab in the Audio Preferences of Logic.
Is there something I'm missing?
Is there any file to move in order to have ProTools hardware noticed by the MacPro?

Logic Pro 7 is NOT, I repeat Not compatible with LEOPARD. And NOt with PT HD on LEOPARD.
You need to upgrade to Logic Pro 8. And read the manual first, to install Logic with DAE support correctly.

Logic Express 7 on intel mac

I just purchased an intel mac and have installed Logic Express 7 on it. I cannot get it to record audio (states "audio disabled") and it won't respond to midi commands. Everything basic about the program seems to be up and running besides this. As I've never used this program I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong in the set up or if the program won't run on my intel mac. Garageband 09 works immediately for me upon opening, as does Soundtrack 3. Am I missing something or do I have to upgrade? Thank you much for your assistance.

It seems that the Mini behaves well in general terms, but as mentioned by Mike Conelly in this post, under certain special circumstances, the computer "seems to choke when there were a bunch of plugs on the same track, performance was much better when I only had 10 short on each track instead of 15. This may improve some of the results already reported if you left 15 running on the first track, feel free to double check your results if you think it will make a difference on your box".
Comparing his benchmarks to others listed in the forum, is really encouraging.
I understand that LE is a lot less resource consuming than LP, so probably I'll end buying one soon. If so, I'll post my results. At this time, my iBook is collapsing when using two or three software instruments with big chords...
Last but not least, I'll always have the freeze feature to save CPU...
Thanks again!

Someone tell me why is it so difficult to print from my Intel Mac Mini

I'm so frusrated at this Intel Mac Mini of mine. I wish honest to God that I never bought this evil little machine.
I have the following printers:
HP Photosmart 7550
HP Laserjet 1012
Canon MP830
I can't get anything to print! It so **** frustrating. I switched my wife from her WinXP to a Intel Mac Mini (10.4.6). She hates the Mac Mini because she can't print anything.
Why is it so difficult? Please someone enlighten me.
After months (not kidding) of searching on the web I was able to get the Photosmart 7550 to print using one of the gimp drivers, but I couldn't get it to change the paper type or quality. So that tells me I can't print any photos from my Mac. Need to use the WinXP box.
Then I was able to get the 1012 printing by selecting "open using rosetta" for the Printer Setup Utility, and selecting the "HP LaserJet 4 series - Gimp-Print v5.0.0-beta2". So now I could at least print BW docs. Great the Mac Mini is not a total waste. Then I updated software, which include the Mac mini SMC Firmware Update. I don't know what did it, but now I can't print to the 1012 anymore. ARGHH!
I tried deleting the Library/Printer/HP directory, Reseting the Printing System, Restarting the CUPs, Installing PDDs, Installing the gimp drivers. What the ****! Why do I need to do any of this? I thought the Mac was suppose to be so easy. With all those **** commercials talking about how the Mac can do anything a PC can do, you would think one of those things is being able to print.
Those people making those commericals should try using the "Printer Setup Utility" program. That will change their tune. First you have to search for your printer, then pick the Printer Model, and then pick the specific model. And God forbid you click to fast, oops you've now picked a generic printer, needs to start all over again. There's no back button. You've already committed to the generic printer type. Now you have to open the Printer Setup Utility again and delete the generic printer and go search for your printer again. Lame.
Don't get me started with the Canon MP 830. I thought, ok maybe its because the 1012 and 7550 are older printers. I'll go buy a new printer - they must have current drivers for that. Canon tells me that the MP 830 is only a single OS machine, meaning you can only connect it to a windows machine and only other windows machines can print from it, or connect it to a Mac, and only other Macs can use it - Again, Lame.
Really I wanted to love the Mac OS. When I first got it, I was loving it. But what good is it if I can't print. I searched the web and it seems I'm not the only person having issues with printing.
I hate this Intel Mac Mini with every fiber of my being. Ok, maybe my printing woes are only because it's a Intel chip, and the PPC macs are golden. But come on, if you can't print from a computer, what good is it?
Please, someone help me. Otherwise, anybody want to buy a Intel dual core Mac Mini?
mac mini duo core Mac OS X (10.4.6)

You have two different issues: HP and Canon.
I don't know if I believe the Canon people. Windows XP has lots of different print options. Try installing Bonjour on Windows and then setting up a networked, Color Apple Laserwriter PS printer using "http://macmini.local:631" (assuming macmini is the name of your Mac). I have done this before (though not on a Canon). I am sure Canon will only support a standard configuration and this is not quite standard. Give it a try. It doesn't sound like it can hurt anything in your current setup.
For the HP, you might have to just wait for an updated driver from HP. HP has always had this problem. They are a huge printer company and I'm sure they get Apple hardware and OS versions before anybody else in the world. And yet, it seems as if they don't even begin working on their drivers until Apple officially releases a new OS. HP drivers are always the last to show up for a new OS and the first to break. If you get it working under MacOS 10.4.6, and then upgrade to 10.4.7, it is very likely that the HP drivers will stop working.
Unlike some of the other big companies, HP seems to have made the transition from Classic MacOS to MacOS X seamlessly. Their printer driver software works just as well on MacOS X as it did under MacOS.

Can't play audio files from pre-Intel Mac

I have some audio files from my old PowerPc Mac (around 1998) which I'd dearly like to be able to hear again on my 2011 Intel G5 Mac (10.7.4).
The files were created by me on the old Mac using the basic sound recording software that came with all Macs. The files are just people speaking.
I have attached an image of the icon that is associated witho these files now. For some of these files, the properties show the file type as "QuickTime Player.app Document".I tried opening the files using Quicktime Player app, to no avail.
Other files are shown as being a "Unix Executable file" type.
I also have other files from the old Mac with this same icon. With those that I know were text files of some kind, I have just simply added .txt at the end of the filename and hey presto, the file is viewable again. I haven't been so lucky with the others.
I imagine also that its not so simple with these audio files but I wouldn't know what file extension to use as I haven't worked with audio files before.
Also, is there a way to keep these files in some generic format, to avoid this problem happening again in the future, as technology advances?
If you can help with this problem, please reply.

How do I transfer logic pro from my existing mac to my new macbook pro with no cd drive?

I have logic already installed on my mac desktop. I have just bought a macbook pro and I am trying to install my legitimate copy of logic onto my new mac, unfortunately Apple in their wisdom have removed the cd drive so the simplest option i.e. use the install disc is no longer an option..
I have tried using 'remote disc' but my desktop is not transferring the information this way, apparently it is because I have not upgraded to yosamite. I don't want to upgrade to yosamite as it has compatibility issues with another music software I use (maschine). Basically if I upgrade to yosamite I won't be able to use maschine.
If anyone out there can offer me a solution to my problem I will be very grateful. thanks

Assuming you are talking about the boxed set of Logic Studio (Logic Pro 9) on DVDs the only solutions are to either borrow or purchase an external CD/DVD drive and use that with your new MBP.
Amazon sells a very reasonably priced 'Amazon Basics' external CD/DVD drive suitable for the process...
http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Portable-External-Optical-Drive/dp/B003M0NT1M /ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1416924310&sr=8-1&keywords=CD+DVD+external+drive+amazon+ basics
Do NOT try and copy Logic across from your Mac to your MBP using something like Time Machine or Migration Assistant... 99% of the time, doing so results in all kind of weird issues later on.
Just install Logic pro 9 plus all it's content from scratch using the DVDs provided with Logic Studio Boxed set.....

Logic 7.1 on intel mac

i have got logic express 7.1 on a intel mac, i believe i need to have 7.2, where do i find this?

thanks, seems a long winded road to go, do you really have to send your disc off to get the update, they have a crossgrade fulfillment in the shop for £19.95. which you can buy it now, is that the same thing? will they just send you a disc?

Upgrading from Tiger Intel Mac XServe to Leopard

Hi,
I would like to find out whether if i have existing shared folders and users, when upgrading from Tiger to Leopard Intel Mac XServe, will there be any problem? Do i need to backup any database or files? I would appreciate if anyone could help me.
Thank you!
Cheers,
Stephanie

Server forum is here:

Would you ever upgrade or install patches even, and not first make a backup?
How do you plan to do the upgrade? over top of Tiger, without backup first?

Would my plug-ins work in Logic 7.2 and intel mac?

This may be a dumb question but would my plug-ins that work in Logic 7.1 on my Powerbook work in Logic 7.2 on an intel mac?

The statement I made is not a "blanket" one, if one is looking at the big picture.
I understand why you would consider that a blanket statement, since you are narrowly looking only at one angle.
The user did not state that this is the only reason he is getting a computer, and he did not specify that he is using the computer ONLY for Logic, and therefore, it is wise to consider all options.
In what way was my comment narrow?
Everyone's situation is different depending on what software, plugins and peripherals are used. Making a recommendation based on months makes no sense since someone's software may be ready much sooner than that, or may be available even later.
The decision to upgrade should be based on whether the things you need to run are ready or not. Doing it this way considers all options, picking a number of months out of a hat is narrowly looking at one angle.

How can I delete PhotoCD.plugin from CS3/Intel Mac

Hi -
After using Photoshop CS3 for a few weeks I'm suddenly getting an error message about a plug-in not loading. When I check it's the Kodak PhotoCD.plugin. If I move the Kodak PhotoCD folder around - like to the Desktop or Trash - Photoshop finds it but doesn't load it.
I read posts on this forum about how it's not compatible with Intel Macs and if I wanted to use it I could run PShop in Rosetta mode. No thanks. No sweat. I never used it and would rather just be free of the Photoshop error message than keep it around for the rare possibility that I will need it.
Before I trash the Kodak PhotoCD folder and then empty the Trash, can someone tell me if that will make the Photoshop error go away?
Will trashing it create any problems with Photoshop CS3?
Thanks,
jl

I can't see how trashing the plugin would cause any problem. According to this TechNote (see link below) it wasn't originally installed with CS3 anyway.

Intel Mac mini vs PowerMac Dual G5 storage server

I would like to setup a server to store family pictures, iTunes purchases and other media. Also I would like to use it as a backup for important documents and data.
I have a Intel Mac Mini 1.66 and a G5 PowerMac dual 1.8GHz.
I have purchased 4 400GB drives and I am trying to figure out the best solution for the money.
I would like to put the drives into external enclosures like OWC 2 drive FW800/FW400 and use the first pair as either RAID 0 or use the hardware spanning, and the 2nd pair as the backup.
Will this be too much for the FW400 bus of the Mac Mini, seeing I also use an EyeTV 500/200 solution to capture TV and burn DVDs. I will do video editing, iMovie, iPhoto stuff.
I would like to sell the G5, but would it make more sense to install 2 drives in the G5 and use 1 external enclosure with FW800 for the backup? I would like at least 1 external enclosure for the backup?
Any suggestion would help.
Thanks!

I have both of the systems to which you refer. I am typing to you on my G5 dual 2 ghz. I have an older G4 dual with 4 drives in it that I use for backup purposes, I do not use a fileserver at home in the sense of what you are talking about. My mini is my entertainment system with 1 TB of storage, my purchases are made on the G5 then transferred to the mini (giving me a backup of all purchases) and the G4 is used to back up the entire library from my mini (not as often as I should though! )
I know Wiebetech used to make an internal setup that expanded the G5's drive capacity from 2 to 4. While you said you wanted at least one external enclosure, that option would eliminate the need for an external case, another power cord, etc. so it may be worth looking into. I do not recall the name of the product but I know wiebetech manufactured it. Perhaps someone else knows the name or you could go to the company website. It is also possible in the G5 forum there is someone who owns the product as well.
As to which one to use, selling the G5 and having just a 2 drive or 4 drive enclosure hooked to the mini is most certainly a significant space saver over the G5 (not to mention not having to either have 2 separate machines with 2 monitors, keyboards or a KVM or VNC type setup) There are many good enclosures on the market, not just single but multiple drive enclosures which could be a better/smaller footprint/economical way to go vs. 4 individual enclosures (again, wiebetech is a noteworthy manufacturer of such items...no, I don't work for them
I too have eye tv hooked to the min as well as the 2 external drives I mentioned (250gb and 750gb) all via firewire. There should be no problem with the setup you mention as far as firewire is concerned and the mini. At least, not in my experience.
Good luck, let us know what you decide and feel free to ask more questions. I will gladly help if I can (can't say I helped this time, probably gave you more questions than answers!)

Help! Can't open Appleworks documents on my Intel Mac.

Just bought a new Intel iMac to replace my old G4 iMac but have just had a shock discovering that i can only open (some) of my old documents which i copied to my external hard drive using Keynote and Pages, but not all of them.
That in itself is annoying enough seeing as they don't come as part of the operating system, unlike Appleworks did.
Any suggestions?
I can always plug in the old Mac but that defeats the object of buying the new one somewhat.

Thanks for the reply Brie Fly, thankfully i've managed to control my frustration and i've sorted the problem. I plugged the old mac back in to the external hard drive, copied Appleworks onto it, plugged the hard drive into the new mac and presto! it works. Obvious really, i think the initial frustration clouded my thinking!
