How can I use new apps on an old macbook?
Hi all.
I've been using macs since September now, and there are a number of things I've found infuriating about working on my Macbook...
My Macbook is an old, mid 2007 model, Version 10.6.8, with a 2.16Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor and 4GB.
Unfortunately, this model of Macbook will not update to any later version. This means there are a lot of apps I cannot use on it.
I'm a filmmaking student, so editing is a huge part of my course. When downloading the newest version of any editing software (such as Premiere Pro or Avid Media Composer), the Macbook will simply refuse to install it, because it requires a newer version of OS X. This is just one example of the many things I cannot do due to the OS X version on here.
How can I get around using newer apps such as Premiere Pro with version 10.6.8? Baring in mind I'm a student so I cannot afford to spend money on a new hard drive or anything.
Also, if I have bought various games on Steam, but some of them are seemingly only playable on PC, can anyone tell me how I can get around playing those games on a Mac?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
SteveThe Core2Duo MacBook (13-inch mid 2007) is rather dated, and to run a certain type
of software on that model you'd have to get the version which was current when the
computer model and the OS X versions it could run were prevailing. So an old version
of something you need (used, new-old-stock, etc) may do the job for a time.
Also, the Core2Duo series of early MacBook can run Lion 10.7.5 and that is about $20.
as a download with code you buy from the Apple Store online. There are a few updates
to the Lion version 10.7 once you went that far. Some older 10.6.8 capable applications
for Intel based Macs would probably still work OK in 10.7.5, but none of the PPC coded
third party applications would run without the Rosetta feature installed in Snow Leopard.
According to MacTracker database, your old Core2Duo is one of those which can run
Lion 10.7.5 at the latest, and a slight upgrade in RAM to 3GB total, is possible. Not sure
if any advantage of using two 2-GB chips would be seen as functional in there, but that
is an easy way to round off what is written as the higher supported amount of RAM. With
two of the 2 GB chips. Otherwise: one - 1 GB + one - 2 GB = 3GB lists as total.
A good repaired MacBook or MacBook Pro of earlier vintage isn't very expensive; some
companies offer the versions older than those available at the Apple Store refurbished
page, that still may be capable, yet not run the latest applications. And several of them
probably should not run Yosemite since their hardware may be marginal. Models that
cannot have their hardware upgraded to run a later OS X, should not be chanced.
Sites such as macsales.com sometimes offer used Macs, wegenermedia.com has a
few different models, since they repair computers and offer excess on their site. The
powermax company has some. Not sure who actually repairs what they sell, with an
exception to wegenermedia who does repair on-site and will accept repair orders.
The everymac.com site is helpful in comparing various build year model specifications
as is the downloadable database of update upgrade specs from http://mactracker.ca .
So, you can upgrade past Snow Leopard 10.6.8, but that may or may not break other
applications you may still be able to use from the preceding era of Mac software. Lion
also would probably prefer more RAM than SL 10.6.8, so you're max-ed out there.
The MacBook series has been discontinued for nearly 5 years (2006 to 2010) so their
last model was among the better ones. MacBook/Pro 13-inch Late 2012 remains good
since you could add RAM and possibly upgrade the hard disk drive. It's a non-retina.
Hopefully you can find a deal on some good condition later model MacBook or Pro.
Good luck & happy computing! -
My new tv needs to plug into an ethernet port for internet connectivity.
I'm hoping it can plug into my TC however my TC is wirelessly connected to my current home network... how can i get this to work?
TC version A1470 (i think, brand new)
Many thanks.
BenIf the TC is connected to a wireless network provided by another Apple router, then the TC extends the network by default, and the Ethernet ports are enabled on the TC.
If the TC is connected to a third party network wirelessly, then it must have been setup to "join" the wireless network. When the TC is set up this way, the TC becomes a wireless hard drive and nothing more. The Ethernet ports are not enabled when the TC "joins" a wireless network.
So, a logical first troubleshooting step would be to confirm "how" the TC is currently set up. To do that.....assuming that you are using a current or recent version of AirPort Utility on your Mac.......
Open AirPort Utility
Click on the TC icon, then click Edit in the smaller window
Click the Wireless tab at the top of the window
Check the setting for Network Mode and report on that -
How can I use a microphone with a wireless speaker system for announcing at a party?
I am trying to use my computer (which is already wirelessly hooked up to my speakers) as a make shift pa system. Is there a way to hook up a microphone to my computer to use it to do a little announcing at a party?
NI-DAQ is not supposed to detect your GPIB and NI-488 software will not detect your daq board. When you installed MAX, was this from a LabVIEW driver install CD that also put a new version of NI-DAQ on your pc. Open MAX and check your currently installed versions of NI-DAQ and NI-488. They should both be listed. If you have a new version of NI-DAQ than 6.1, you can uninstall the newer version and install 6.1.

How can I use New iPad in Japan?
I just bought the new iPad and was planning to use it to access the internet on my upcoming trip to Japan. When I purchased the device last week, the Mac Genius assured me that all I needed to do was buy a SIM card once I got there. Unfortunately, as I'm doing research, I'm finding out that it isn't possible to buy a SIM card withouth being a resident there. Any advice regarding this issue would be greatly appareciated.
I can't help with the sim card issue, but you will still have Internet access in any area where WiFi is available so in the worst case scenario, look for WiFi hotspots in Japan.
Have you seen this?

I need a bit of help.

I receive a window asking if i want to sync i need to erase and replace with the iTunes library on the computer.
I particularly don't want to do this.

Bought a new Ipod for daughter for Xmas. How can I use ICLOUD to sync Itunes only to her IPOD
Bought a new Ipod for daughter for Xmas. How can I use ICLOUD to sync Itunes only to her IPOD and not everything else on my iphone etc?
On the iPod turn off iCloud for calender, contacts and other things (Settings>iCloud) and turn off automatic downloading for apps and books (Settings>Store).
Aldso go to Settings Messages and Facetime and add her own email calling/messaging address and delete the Apple ID calling/messaging address. -
How can I use Aperture 3 on my new iMac with Maverick?
How can I use Aperture 3 on my new iMac with Maverick?
Do you own a copy of Aperture, perhaps bought for another Mac?
If you have not bought Aperture, you need to buy it from the AppStore.
But if you own Aperture and have it bought from the AppStore on another Mac, sign into theAppStore on your new iMac with the same AppleID you used to buy Aperure on your other Mac. Then look at the "Purchased" tab of he AppStore. It show Aperture, with the "Install" button to the right. Simply press the "Install" button and download it to your new iMac. Or if you have bought Aperture on a CD/DVD, run the installer from the CD/DVD on your new mac and immediately run software update to upgrade the Aperture 3. version to version that will run with Mavericks.
