Since doing some research I'm considering purchasing the "Samson CO1U - USB Studio Condenser Microphone" I was just wondering if it will work with Garageband?
I am hoping to use my Mac as a very simple recording studio nothing major. I was just wondering if anyone had used the
Samson CO1U - USB Studio Condenser Microphone
I am hoping to use it straight into garageband to record lyrics and guitar and perhaps some percussion.
Many thanks
I have used it mostly for speech recordings, not for music. I would call it "podcast quality", for music I use a better condenser mic with an audio interface.

So I play on my Macbook pro 17 inch for hours in XP. I game playing oblivian and such. for a while everything will be awsome then the computer will get hot and the video card will mess up the game will freez and ill get a message about how the video card faild. then the game will work again for a bit then every thing will get all funky on the screen some of the colors and shadows will mess up and evey thing moves slow. so any way I was wondering is my ram going to go through long term problems becuse of this heat? i dont think the fan works with boot camp right now so ive started using my own but it still gets really hot. im thinking about getting another gb of ram do you think that this would help or make the problem worst? Some one tell me whats going on. Thank you.
I was just wondering if it is possible to link to airport express router wirelessly to expand the range of the connection?
If the other router is another AirPort or Time Capsule, then the answer is yes. How you would configure both AirPorts would depend on whether they are 802.11n or 802.11g models. -
I was doing some thing on my mac and the normal link to the applications folder from the bottom right hand corner disappeared, I cant find it anywhere, Can you help me?
Simple process. If an iPhone go to the Apple Store and not Verizon
the phone from Verizon will be a refurbished device and not new unless under the 14 day worry free guarantee
good luck -
I just received a new macbook pro. I am looking for a usb3 external storage 500 GB drive. Some manufacturers of drives aren't for sure their drive will work with the new system. Does anybody have any suggestions for drives that will workw
There seems to be a problem, just now, with the USB 3 ports on the new MBP's supporting eternal USB 3 drives. Some people have no luck at all - can't even recognize the drive - and some are reporting USB 2 speeds (those who drives are recognized). I'd call a dealer such as LaCie or OWC to see if they have USB 3 drives that actually work with MBP's with USB 3 ports. You may have to wait for a software/firmware update.

I am considering purchasing the Mac mini for home studio audio production using Adobe Audition and a USB microphone. Will the base mini model run these programs?
The base mini has 4GB and a 5400 RPM hard drive. It is slow to start up and slow to launch large application such as Word (and I'd assume Adobe Audition) due to the slow drive. I've not used a new 4GB model, just the 8GB model, and the 8GB model (except for the slow drive) handles everything I've thrown at it, including running Photoshop, Word, Safari, and Mail at the same time but there is sometimes a delay switching between programs as the swapfile is updated. Overall I was not happy with the 5400 RPM drive (perhaps because I have MBA and iMac with Fusion drive) so I eventually upgraded it with an SSD. Now the mini is truly a warrior.

I am running aperture 2.1.4 and am considering purchasing the latest version. will my photos, projects, and folders etc. transfer over automatically ?
will my photos, projects, and folders etc. transfer over automatically ?
Nearly automatically.
This will be a major upgrade, and Aperture will have to upgrade your library.
As a precaution, make sure you have a working backup of your library, and I'd keep a copy of the Aperture 2.1.4 Application installer as well.
Also it is recommended to repair the permissions and to rebuild the library, to make sure that the library has no corruptions before you upgrade.
Rename the Aperture Library to a name different from the default name before you upgrade.
Launch the new Aperture version by double clicking your Aperture library. Aperture will prompt you, that it is necessary to upgrade the library; let it run, this may take a while. And yes, you should find all your photos, projects, folders, etc. after the upgrade just as you imported and organized them.

if my mac runs on the leopard OS and not the snow leopard os, does this mean i can't purchase the new lion os?
We probably don't know the whole story yet.
The big announcement Steve Jobs made was, of course, a sales pitch with all the "gee whiz" stuff -- no nitty-gritty, gory details.
Apple's "How to buy" post (http://www.apple.com/macosx/how-to-buy/) clearly says "To upgrade on day one" -- no mention of day two, or twenty.
It would be rather silly for Apple to take the position that, if you don't have broadband (for a 4 GB download), they don't want you as a customer. So it's likely there will be an alternative for such folks, such as a DVD or USB stick, possibly for a nominal extra fee. If so, that might also allow updating directly from Leopard.
When the actual release date is announced, there should be more details. -
Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).

Does ANYBODY know how to get a Bluebird Mic to work with GarageBand?
I bought this really expensive Blue Bluebird condenser mic and I'd REALLY like to get it to work with GarageBand. I have a cable that converts from low impedance to high impedance, then some adapters to plug the cable into my iMic, which then connects via a USB port. I know that's a lot of connectors, but it's the only way I can think of to turn the Bluebird mic into a USB mic. Can anybody help me with this? PLEASE??
that looks, uh, complicated.
none of it should be any more so than your current setup. if you went the interface route it would be Mic to interface interface to computer (USB or FireWire). if you went the analogue console route it would be the same, but into the iMic or Line-n on the computer
so I would need a female to male mic cable
standard mic cable, it's how they usually come.
Also, do you recommend the external Phantom Power supply, or a new interface?
that reaches more toward opinion, and also why i mentioned never using a separate power supply. you have to weigh cost vs quality (basically, what you expect from your final project).
if it's just for kicks, and your iMic's quality satisfies you, $20 for a power supply seems cost effective. if you're looking to reach the quality of recordings you hear on the radio, a better interface would be the right choice now since you'd wind up there eventually.
the in-between is the analogue console. having a mixer between the mic and the iMic definitely gives you more control since you can boost or attenuate the signal going to the iMic.
so the 3 choices you have would be: Power Supply-least quality, least control. Analogue Console-same quality, much more control. more expensive interface-possibly the best quality recording as well as good control.
since you picked a very good mic, i'd suggest looking toward a good interface like the FireBox (great Mic PREs for the expensive mic)
hope that helps -
I cannot receive messages from iphones since I got a new android device. did the change apple I'd password and whatnot...it still isn't working. what do I do?
Lets take first issue first: Apple does not charge a customer to 'keep' iPad access. That does not happen at apple. If you were billed and charged that amount of money from someone you were speaking to over the phone, you were not talking with Apple support. If you need to speak with apple support you are free to call them at 800MYAPPLE and they will talk to you for no more money than 19.00/ support event.
Please read this article to asssit with imessage and factime troubleshooting.

I'm sorry you have this happen to you - that being charged fraudulently for a non rendered service.
Good luck to you Friend. -

I've downloaded some free apps on my iphone 4 and some of them have ads. I was just wondering, are those ads free as well, or are they using my internet when they pop up like that? i have to mention, i never click them.
Yes, they will use a very small amount of your internet bandwidth to display.

My new ipod touch 4g that i just got is running extremely slow and the apps crash alot. I have about 10gb left out of 16 gb. When i got it, it was brand new, and ran like how it is now. I was just wondering if this could be some sort of defect?

Am considering buying a Time Capsule. But all specs I read about it (re: printing) is how to hook up a printer via USB connection. Need to confirm...that a wireless printer will work with the router feature of the Time Capsule. I assume yes...?
A wireless printer connects to the network just like your computer, or iPhone/iPad, etc. connects using wireless.
The printer must be set up intially to scan to "find" available wireless networks, then your specific wireless network needs to be selected. Then the password for the network needs to be entered.
Once the printer is configured to join the network, it is always connected to the network. No further configuration is required.
