Possible to replay first-time startup video?

Hi all
Was wondering if it is possible to replay the startup video that plays the first time a new iMac is booted up. If so, how?
I found it on You Tube, but it's not the same and want to show someone else who missed the initial boot.
Thanks in advance!!

Possible to replay first time startup sequence?..

Does anyone know if it is possible to replay the Imac startup sequence? If so, how?
I tried searching and could not find any info on it.

Is this what you are looking for?
Mac Start Up Sound
I note you have an Intel iMac. If the above is not what you are looking for, suggest that you re-post over in the Intel-based iMac Forums
This area is for G5 iMac issues. Unknown if the Intels have a slightly different start up sound.

FCE 2 first time startup error message.

I am trying to install FCE 2 on a mac mini with 0.5Gig ram. I am using the master disk. I get the following message on startup for the first time. You must have at least 1 Easy Setup file. Please re-install Final Cut Express HD and try again.
I have tried Tom's suggestions. Same problem on the second install. Any ideas. I updated FCE to 2.0.3. The specs list with my account are not correct for this computer. The operating system is 10.4.2.

To whom it may concern:
The IMG_ERR_PAR1 error is a little ambiguous and what I've initially found on it indicates that it pertains to a call made to a previous version of the driver embedded inside your driver install. A couple of ideas:
1) Check that your interface name or board ID is correct in the IMAQ initialization (This is assuming that this error happens when you're running a program to execute a snap or grab. When you said "every first time startup - error occurs," I'm not quite sure what you mean as to when the error actually occurs).
2) What version of the IMAQ driver are you using? I'd recommend that you make sure you have the most recent version available at http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/webcategories/85256410006C055586256BBB002C0D10?o
pendocument&node=132070_US. You'll want IMAQ 2.6.1.
See if this will do anything for you. Best of luck. If we have to go further with this, I'll need more specific information than was initially provided.

Appletv v1 yellow light flashing; won't stop. First time startup.

Just pulled model FA711LL/A from the box for the first time. (Bought it years ago as a backup. Now want to use it.) Plugged in the component cables (no HDMI on my monitor) and the power cord. Yellow light's been flashing for half an hour now and there's no sign that it's sending a signal to the monitor.
What's my next move?

Well, I should have tried this before anything else. I unplugged the Time Capsule from the power source and plugged it back in after about two minutes. Green light appeared immediately. Coincidentally (maybe?), as soon as I did that and returned to Airport Utility, I had a message to update the firmware. I did check for an update earlier in the day, but TC appeared to be up to date at that time. Now I've updated the firmware, TC has restarted, and green light is on. Weired.

Xcode 4 new all in one app, first time startup

Hello dears,
since v4.3 (I think), Xcode comes in an "all in one app", without installer package.
While starting Xcode.app for the first time, a window appears commenting to install additional resources.
Does anyone know the install path of these resources ?
Thank you much!

Thanks KT,
I dont mean the resources from the Xcode menu.
I mean the installs that are necessary and performing at the (only) first start of Xcode.
Reason, I like to check, where they are, and how much, in case of using a SSD and maybe trying a simlink.
Ok, I could test it, overwriting Xcode with a new file from the image.
If the install procedure comes up again, I seems to be located in the app itself.

Resetting the First time startup on new MacBook

I am giving a new MacBook to my daughter, but want to set it up first – using my account; but then would like to have it restart in a few days with the brand new startup screen so that she can input her information. Is that possible? (She is thousands of miles away and I want to verify that everything is working 100% before giving this to her – but want her to enjoy setting-up her new MacBook herself…)
Thanks and if this question is not understood, just let me know and I'll try to explain better what I'm trying to do here.

Hi Steve....!!
Please follow these instructions......OS X: How to erase and install - Apple Support
Steve, you will complete steps 1 through 8. Step 8 covers the reinstallation of OS X which in your case is Yosemite. You will make sure OS X Yosemite fully installs. The computer will tell you that the installation is complete.
Steve, once you receive the information that the installation is complete, turn off the computer and then give it as a gift to your pretty daughter.
Hope this helps.....

First Time Startup CRASH

I still haven't been able to open up Motion on my new MacBook. All software is up-to-date. Sometimes it won't open at all. Sometime I get as far as the Template menu. The furthest I've gotten is past the first menu and then I get the spinning apple and nothing ever happens. Usually it just crashes before all that. I've only gotten the "report this" crash menu once, and Motion has crashed at least two dozen times. I don't have any other programs running at the same time, and nothing is attached to the computer.

I just found this:
From the top questions page:
http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/topquestions.html
Does Final Cut Studio run on the new Intel-based Mac computers?
A Universal version of Final Cut Studio will be available before the end of March 2006. Universal applications are designed to run natively on both Intel- and PowerPC-based Mac computers. All owners of Final Cut Studio are eligible for a crossgrade to the Universal version for $49. (Note: The previous version of Final Cut Studio is not supported on Intel-based Macs.)
Here's the link for the universal crossgrade.
http://www.apple.com/universal/crossgrade/
I'll be ordering this. I am sure this has caused many a headache for mac users and for apple themselves. All the macbook users having to crash it a couple dozen times, then go and hunt the upgrade explanation, and then photocopying your install discs, and then pay another $49! Is this really Apple we are dealing with. What happened to simple and intuitive?
The Best,
Seth

First time startup- Blinking amber light. Not sure what to do.

So I just got my airport express and when i first started getting the airport utility downloaded for windows xp, i used my modem (time warner ubee modem) ethernet cable and all but I am just getting a blinking amber light. I don't know if it hasn't configured if I need to wait longer for to initally start. I am kind of derp when it comes to networking, so..

A persistent, flashing amber light indicates that any of the several potential conditions may require your attention:
The base station has not yet been configured because it is new, or the reset switch has been set.
You have selected a security configuration that is not recommended.
One of several other conditions, such as a disconnected Ethernet cable or invalid IP address has been detected.
(ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305101)
If you run the AirPort Utility, it will show an amber circle on the summary page next to the area(s) causing the problem. Click on this amber circle and it should provide an explanation. Please post back your findings.

First Time "STARTUP" command

I just installed 8i Enterprise successfully on a Sun Ultra 5 box with Solaris 8.
After I log into the box as the "oracle" user, I issue the "sqlplus" command. It then asks me for user name, I type: "sys/oracle as sysdba" and it comes back with "connected to an idle instance".
Finally, at the "SQL>" prompt, I type "STARTUP OPEN PFILE=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/mypfile.ora" and it returns:
ORA-24323 value not allowed
ORA-03113 end-of-file on communication channel
I have verified that I do have the correct pfile, for the Installer made it during installation.
Please HELP!!!

Hi fractals
Before we go any further we need to find out which version of Java is causing the problem. In the Terminal program, type "java -version" (without the quotes) and observe the behaviour. Hopefully, you'll get the long delay you mentioned earlier, but it will eventually print out the java version. This should serve to identify exactly which Java version has the problem. If you don't get the long delay, or it hangs without ever printing out the version then you need to follow these steps. In Terminal type:
cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.3/Commands
./java -version
cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4/Commands
./java -version
cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/Commands
./java -version
(you can cut and paste these commands from here)
With any luck this will identify the faulty Java version. Come back when you know which one it is.

New computer -- newly installed CS6 Production Suite Photoshop crashes on first time startup, reboot

I just got my beautiful new computer, custom designed, with 12 gb memory, solid state drive, HDMI 27" monitor, with a second DVI monitor, liquid cooling, Windows 7 Pro -- the works. However, installing CS 5.5 works fine. I wanted to try the cloud, but every program just crashed, and Windows reboots. So, I tried upgrading to CS6. Unfortunately, the same problem. Bridge works fine -- but, no other program in the Suite works at all -- all crash on start up, and Windows gives me the dreaded blue screen, and reboots.
Help! Just spent a huge bundle on this system and software, and am stuck. And tomorrow's a work day!

I may try rebooting, and having windows start in safe mode, and see if the 64 bit version will work.
Good plan as believe that load without plugins. 3rd party fonts and plugins, along with drivers are most common causes of crashes.
Did you update the video card driver from makers site? CS6 and CC stresses it a lot more than CS5.5

How to make the opening video replay every time in ibooks author?

I have opening media in my ibook. But I need it to replay every time the ibooks is opened again. How do I do this? Any help would be appreciated.

Are you saying export my processed video to .movs or DNxHD and give to him? The terms are all new to me. When I last edited with FCP it was with DVCam footage captured from the cassettes. Would he be able to then import the audio from the SxS card and sync it on his time line with those kind of files?
Nothing was deleted....straight 1 hr 2 minute single take.... broken down to the smaller files both by the Nanoflash and the SxS card.. I would drop the soundtrack from SxS onto my time line and sync it up for him first with the noise processed Nano video files if I could figure out why it isn't following the video onto the time line? Why does the 1080 60P codec from the Sony NEX 5N still camera bring the audio along automatically and the file fromn the Sony PMW 320 does not? There must be a lot of EX1 and EX3 shooters here. Please, what do I need to do with the buttons or targeting or settings for the 2 audio tracks on time line for those files to have the audio come along? From the SxS files I imported, both the ones that say "CLPR" and right below that, "CUEUP.XML" play the sound in the browser source window.

This is my first time using FCPX and I just completed editing a music video. What are the last things I have to do to get the best quality out of my video before I try to upload it to youtube?

I want my music video to look as crisp as possible. I was wondering if there were an tricks or tips that needs to be done before i upload it to youtube. This will be my first time uploading anything to youtube so im not sure. also what does rendering mean? and compressing? thanks

Best quality = "master file" export. You can export said file and store it where ever you like.
But quality "out" depends on what you put "in." You can never "improve" on the quality during the edit process. If you had low quality H.264 files to begin with, that's the best it's gonna get. If you had HQ ProRes422 or even 4444... (which is "above" 2k HD quality) those are great. And the output will be rich. But most likely, you will have to compress that file to exhibit it. (I'll get to that later.)
Now, when you share to YouTube, you will be limited on quality. They have a prescribed bit-rate and compression. (Even though they do offer 1080p.)
Now, you will NOT be able to share a "master" file to YouTube. Much too big.
Luckily, in the share options, FCPX has an option for "YouTube." It does all the compression for you. BTW: This is awesome. It finds your account and does the "posting" for you. It's simple.
Rendering = calculations made on various effects. A non linear editor has to build files for some effects... dissolves, moves, filters, etc, etc. The software does "math" and crunches numbers--to make your image animate across the screen, example. This is called "rendering." Depending on your preferences, this is done for you.
Now when you output or "share," rendering is done for you automatically. If you choose to see how an effect will look "smoothed out," you can choose to render a file on the fly.
Compression means just that. Video files are, by nature, huge... billions of O's and 1's. To make them flow thru various pipelines (the electronic infrastruture) most files are compressed--or made smaller. Basically, some of the duplicate O's and 1's are taken out. (It's much more complicated than that, I'm givng a laypersson's definition.) The more you compress, the less quality you get. The picture begins to look "jig-jagged" or pixelated. There is less detail in the picture.
When you go to "share" to YouTube, FCPX will do this compression for you, up to (or should I say, "down to") YouTube's specs.

I have a Mac Mini, and it won't accept connecting my Sony video camera. So I got a SD mem card reader to unload my movies from. It worked the first time I used it a few months ago. This time it says it doesn't recognize the format I am trying to use?

I have all thenecessary updates. I have switched over from a PC to Mac back in April and have nad nothing but problems adapting. I don't know why this worked the first time, and put my videos inti imovie, and now it doesn't recognize it at all. And the Mem card reader does work, because I just put the SD card from my regular camera into it and it downloaded those fine, it just won't take my movies!

Which sony camera? I have a Sony HDR-CX550 right now and have been able to use the SD card as well as connect the camera directly. I also had CX110 that work too. You may want to try to copy the complete top level folder from the SD card to the Hard drive, then try to "import from Camera archive" and select that folder.
