Scaling support for surface pro 3

I'm running the latest version of Windows 8.1 and the latest version of iTunes 12 for Windows. I was hoping with the update, scaling support would be included for high DPI devices like the Surface Pro 3. I was in the Apple store and the retina macbook pros are fine, so they obviously have the technology available to support it. I talked to an employee, and they said wait for iTunes 12 to come out, and it hasn't fixed anything. High DPI displays are still not supported, and I am getting quite angry and impatient. I prefer Windows for my desktop experience, and it seems like Apple is alienating Windows users here. I am going to start looking for alternatives to iTunes in the meantime. Can someone help me out? I know I can disable scaling under properties, but this just makes everything very small, and is very annoying,

  • Voiceover support for ABBYY pro and reading pdf files

    I want to know about voiceover support for ABBYY pro in macbook pro. and also want to know whether voiceover support reading pdf files. If so, which is the best pdf reader.

    Not sure if this is what you want, but for reading PDF files out loud, Apple Preview has a command Edit/Speech/Start Speaking, and Adobe Reader has View/Read Out Loud/Activate Read Out Loud.

  • MST Support for MacBook Pro Retina Late 2013 - DisplayPort 1.2 - Will it ever happen? (with sources)

    So back in October, I purchased a brand new Macbook Pro Retina (MBPr), fully loaded with top of the line specs.  I was soooo excited to have Thunderbolt 2 tech which Intel AND Apple describes as having DisplayPort 1.2a compatibility - which up to this point is unfortunately NOT the case.  The point of the information/questions and requests in this article is to engage a conversation about the issues of not having MST support after Apple falsely mislead their consumers to think otherwise - especially when it is clear the MBPr is capable.  Please read on...
    Apple advertises that the Thunderbolt 2 ports on BOTH the MBPr and the new Mac Pro (NMP) will have 4K Display support with the famed 20gb/sec Ports (DisplayPort 1.2 only requires a little above 17gb/sec).  Now that the 10.9.1 update has been released, we have failed to see MST or Multi-Stream Transport enabled on the MBPr Late 2013.  Now, as for the New Mac Pro- it DOES have MST enabled in 10.9.1 with the AMD GPUs.  For all of you out there that's questioning what this means, short answer is basically the Mac Pro will be able to power a 4K Monitor at 60Hz through the Thunderbolt 2 Port but the New MBPr is stuck with only HDMI 1.4 support which tops out at 4K 30Hz. 30Hz is unacceptable for anything but movies or a photo slideshow.  At 30Hz the cursor will jump across the screen, eliminating any of the benefits of 4K.
    BUT it gets worse...
    Apple can be seen advertising that the new MBPr 15" model can power a 4K monitor THROUGH the Thunderbolt 2 Port here: http://www.apple.com/thunderbolt - This article quotes the following:
    "Now with Thunderbolt 2 built into the new Mac Pro and MacBook Pro with Retina display, you can connect the latest 4K desktop displays and get double the bandwidth for your peripherals. And the two generations of Thunderbolt technology are compatible with each other."
    Does this not let the consumer assume that the newest MBPr will be able to drive a 4K display through the Thunderbolt 2 Port?  I would say yes it does, but at the time I wrote this, the TB2 Ports can't power a 4K display because, as previously stated, MST is disabled in Mavericks for the 15" MBPr Late 2013.
    NOW, later on Apple posted the following article on 4K support here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6008
    4K support on the MacBook Pro (Retina, Late 2013)
    MacBook Pro supports 4K displays and Ultra HD TVs at the following resolutions and refresh rates with the built-in HDMI port:
    3840 x 2160 at 30 Hz refresh rate
    4096 x 2160 at 24 Hz refresh rate (mirroring is not supported at this resolution)
    In the article above the New Mac Pro is listed as having support for a 4K Display with the Thunderbolt 2 Port (or MST DisplayPort 1.2a Technology) at 60Hz with no problem.  This leads myself and many others to believe that MST will NEVER be enabled on the newest MacBook Pro Retina with Nvidia GPUs. Yes, 4K IS supported but ONLY through the HDMI 1.4 port, which has the limitation of only 30hz.  This two-faced advertising is extremely upsetting to a LOT of people, including myself.
    Interestingly enough, THIS IS NOT a hardware issue.  If one ventures into Windows 8.1 via Bootcamp and connects a 4K Display via the Thunderbolt 2 (or through DP1.2) Port, the Display registers at 60Hz, thus proving that the Thundberbolt 2 Hub Controller is completely capable of MST DisplayPort functionality.  Clearly this a driver issue with Apple, Nvidia or Intel or any combination.  What Apple has done here is forcing any professional that desires stable and clear 4K technology through their MacBook Pro Retina to do so only using Windows 8.1 on their own machines!  Definitely an oxymoron if you ask me...
    Later on when the Mac Pro was ready for ordering, Apple placed the Sharp PN-K321 as a compatible option for a 4K Display.  On the Store page featuring the (over three thousand dollar) Sharp 4K display, located here http://store.apple.com/us/product/HD971LL/A/sharp-32-pn-k321-4k-ultra-hd-led-mon itor?fnode=53 Apple states the following:
    "Note that 4K DisplayPort operation is only compatible with the new Mac Pro (Late 2013)."
    All of that being said, and I'm terribly sorry for my wordy ranting...
    This brings me to a final two requests to ANYONE reading this post:
    a) Has anyone working with the new 10.9.2 Beta Update seen evidence that DisplayPort 1.2 capabilities will be enabled for the new MacBook Pro Retina (Nvidia 750M) with the promised "Graphics Driver Updates" within the next Mavericks update?
    and
    b) To others that purchased or were/are thinking of purchasing a new MacBook Pro Retina with TB2 Ports: If you are just as upset as me about this crushing blow to consumers that just purchased a $3,000 laptop that were promised something that wasn't delivered - I urge you please, write to Apple and let them know they are making a mistake.  You can do this though the support page or through http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Thank you for your precious time, and if anyone has anything to contribute to this issue, please jump in....

    GOOD NEWS!
    The Mavericks 10.9.3 update adds official support for Thunderbolt 2, 4K!
    I'm not sure if you will be able to daisy chain anything to the 4K display.  I've read that the design of Thunderbolt 2 includes support for DisplayPort 1.2 multi-stream (MST), which allows this type of daisy chaining with 4K, but we don't know if Apple has this supported on it's machines.  Apparently it's been buggy in development because the graphics driver needs to work correctly with the Thunderbolt 2 host controller.  I'm sure they will work it out if they haven't already.
    The above is all via found information on this topic, but you can follow some more discussion here:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1713876
    One more note on Thunderbolt worth sharing: always keep your fastest peripherals closer to the computer in the chain. If you have a TB1 device directly connected to the computer, anything further down the chain will be limited to TB1 speed/capability regardless of it's native speed.  Always connect TB2 devices first, and save anything TB1 for the end of the chain.

  • Tablet trade-in denied for surface pro 3

    I tried to trade in a Compac TC1100 today (between 3:15 and 3:45) at the Ankeny Iowa location.  Was unable to get the associate to use the trade-in button.  Just kept getting told it isn't in the system.

    Hello, tedpeer, and welcome to the forum!
    Receiving $200.00 for simply trading in a qualifying tablet is certainly an offer many would love to take advantage of, especially if you were already in the market for a newer model. From my understanding, our Surface Pro 3 trade-in offer should be able to accommodate tablets outside our trade-in system by using a recycling option in our system to ensure you properly receive the coupon and gift card we are offering.  Having said this, your tablet must have met all the following requirements in order to qualify.
    ·         The device must be able to power on to be considered working
    ·         It cannot have water damage or a cracked screen
    ·         The device’s warranty seal must be intact
    ·         The device cannot be a Boogie Board or e-Reader
    Please know I’ll be reaching out to our leadership team in place at our Ankeny location to ensure we are following the necessary steps to assist our customers looking to take advantage of this promotion. If you feel that your tablet was incorrectly denied, please visit the same store by 4/18/2015 to receive assistance from a manager, as they are in the best position to address this issue.

  • Support for mac pro

    I am told that Apple is not supporting Mac Pro from now on
    If this short-sighted abandoning of the professional creative communities is true, what recommendations are there for bullet proof Mac systems from 2012 onwards?
    Picture editors, recording and post production studios, design studios, composers all need a top end machine with an open architecture and no 'designed-in' constraints which feature on all other current Macs.
    Are we back with the build your own approach of a PC?
    Any insights welcome
    Ian

    there are good reasons for wanting to sustain and renew Mac Pro systems.
    And that is exactly what will happen.
    Power: Although the iMac is an extremely powerful machine in its own right, the Mac Pro's performance still kicks the iMac's butt all the way up and down the block. Benchmark performance in Geekbench shows the 12-core 2.93 GHz Mac Pro coming in with an astounding score of 21,789. That's nearly twice the 11,581 score earned by the most powerful iMac, a quad-core 3.4 GHz model.
    Benchmarks only tell part of the story, however. A Mac Pro that's been maxed-out on Apple's online store with as much RAM and hard disk capacity as you can shove into it is a Godzilla of a machine:
        •    Two 2.93 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon processors (for a total of 12 cores)
        •    8 TB of internal storage
        •    64 GB of RAM
        •    Two ATI Radeon HD 5770 with 1 GB of video RAM -- each.
    The best you can do with an iMac via Apple's configuration options?
        •    3.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
        •    2 TB HDD + 256 GB SSD
        •    16 GB RAM
        •    AMD Radeon HD 6970M with 2 GB of video RAM
    The top-end iMac is an incredibly powerful machine by consumer and even professional standards, but a fully-upgraded Mac Pro is practically ostentatious in the amount of raw processing power it can wield. Professional consumers in areas like 3D rendering, video editing, and other extremely processor-intensive applications surely appreciate the much greater power the Mac Pro can afford them.
    Customization:
    The Mac Pro stomps the iMac in the customization department. Folding down the Mac Pro's side door gives you easy and almost instant access to its innards, and virtually every component is simple to swap out. Hard drives in particular are extraordinarily easy to swap in the Mac Pro.
    Contrast that with the iMac, where the RAM is essentially the only user-serviceable component. Swapping out the hard drive on an iMac is a harrowing procedure that requires removing the entire front display -- not something you're going to want to do more than once, if ever. You could argue that the iMac's Thunderbolt capability vastly expands its customization options (and I will, later on), but it still doesn't quite measure up to the amount of customization available to a Mac Pro.

  • What is the problem with Adobe Customer/Tech support for Premiere Pro?!?!?!

    Today Adobe closed the NINTH support ticket - since mid-January - on my problem with Premiere Pro CC - it crashes on startup (just after the splash screen loads). From what I gather on here, I am not alone with this problem. It's apparently rather common!
    I've left message after message and, as I said, NINE tech support tickets (most recent #0185443350). All have been closed or withdrawn without ANY help, reply or solution. Yet my monthly Cloud charge is reliably withdrawn from my bank account!
    I need access to a working program! I use this in my studio business and my customers have been waiting since the end of January! This is now costing me money and customers!
    Adobe - Apparently you don't particularly care about your customers. I am NOT impressed and, at this point, I'm starting get a little pissed off. It's been almost six months and.....NOTHING!
    And YES, all of my drivers are up to date, etc. I've reinstalled. Updated drivers. Etc etc etc, ad nauseum!
    NOTHING WORKS!

    Hi Rowen,
    I sent you a PM. I hope I can help you resolve this issue.
    Thanks,

  • It would appear that there is no longer any support for Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac. I keep getting a notice for updates but when I elect to do so, I get the message that I need to reinstall the program from the original program disks- which I no longer have.

    I’m debating whether to can the app, or just ignore, or turn off the updater. Suggestions?

    If you are at version 9.5.5 that was the end of the line for Acrobat 9.x.  You are correct that Acrobat 9 is no longer supported.  Adobe is only supporting Acrobat X and Acrobat XI at this time.
    If you need to reinstall Acrobat 9 though you can still download the installer bits here:  Download Adobe CS5 Free Trials – All Direct Links without Akamai | ProDesignTools
    Make sure to follow the directions carefully and sign into the Adobe Trials page first with your Adobe ID.

  • Unable to download Windows Support for macbook pro osx 10.7

    I am having problems downloading the windows support and I have read a lot of suggestions. Can I hear your thought about these.
    1. BootCampESD.pkg (yambam)
    2. drivers at bootcamp.dmg (kisnord)

    That is quite strange, I did have a similar issue with Western Digital 1.5TB External HDD a while ago. It worked on other computers just fine but not on my Mac, one day it just stopped working all together.
    I am not saying that its an issue with the pen drive though. Could be either or.
    The only thing that I can think of trying is to start up in Safe Mode and see if it works. If not then you can at least rule out any applications causing problems.
    Let me know how you go. I will have a bit of a look in to this for you as well... I'm curious... And a little confused myself

  • USB Boot support for K7N420 Pro???

    Would it be possible for the BIOS release to include USB Boot support?
    This way you could use a lot of bootable USB peripherals (USB Flash DIsk for example) and you wouldn't need your FDD anymore.
    Can this be done?

  • Largest hd supported for mac pro

    What is the largest HD I can put in my mac pro 3 or 4TB?
    Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5), MacPro 2,1-2x3ghz Xeon 12GB RAM

    6Gbits/sec drives will work, but will automatically negotiate a slower transfer speed.
    Since rotating drives do not produce data at anywhere near that rate, 6Gbits/sec (and even 3Gbits/sec) is pure specmanship.

  • HT1750 support for macbook pro retina

    How to set "macbookpro retina 10.8.2" to original factury setting?
    Can any one help?

    Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • OCR Support for Vietnamese language in Acrobat Pro 9.1

    I am using Acrobat Pro 9.1 and am needing to OCR the earlier scanned Vietnamese document.
    It seems that the default setup of Acrobat 9.1 doesn't support this. The question is does Acrobat 9.1 support support at all?
    I have noticed the font pack (including Vietnamese support) for Acrobat Pro 8.x, but failed to find equivalent support for Pro 9+?
    Appreciate any ideas on this.

    Try printing to the Adobe PDF printer, the more fundamental process (PDF Maker is a preprocessor for the printer). If that does not work, then try with print-to-file selected. Open the file in Distiller and see if the PDF is created. If the latter happens, then check for AcroTray running in the background. It is required to automate the process and is needed by PDF Maker.
