Since when is iMovie not compatible with MacBook Pro 13-inch?

went to upload some Christmas Eve videos into iMovie and get an error messages stating the iMovie does not support my computer...which it sure allowed me to purchase, use and update as recently as September!
Since when did Apple start deciding to not make the very software they promote as idea for users, then go and make them not work on a system that is not even 1.5 years old?!!! Steve Jobs would not have agreed to something so stupid! Apple, fix the problem or you are moving more and more closer to Microsoft than I thought.
THIS IS PURE ******** AND I INTEND TO POST THIS ON EVERY MAC FORUM

Here is the message I am getting:
OK, I can edit HD video on my iPhone, but the hardware on my MacBook Pro can't handle it? Really?!! Come on Apple, I am not that stupid...and if this is the direction you were going, when are you going to finally produce a legitimate MacBook Pro 13-inch with video memory?
All of those poor college kids and other people who purchased a computer that doesn't even support a simple, feature poor video editing program, but...I can run all kinds of other labor intensive program all day long...including 3rd party HD video editing software.

    I can't tell you why, but I can tell you that Apple published the list of supported hardware on its website quite a while ago. The oldest MacBook Pro model that supports Mountain Lion is the Mid/Late 2007 model. You have the late 2006 model.
    Details are (and have been) here:

  • What internal hard drive is compatible with Macbook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012)?

    I live in India. I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012). My Macbook crashed 3 days ago. Apple said the internal hard disk needed replacement. They gave me two options.
    1. They get a new hard drive replaced from Apple for 12000 INR (280$),
    or 2. If you find it expensive, you can buy an internal hard disk from sources other than Apple and we will fix it in for you.
    I have decided to go with option 2, because option 1. is not feasible for me!
    Now my question is,
    What type of internal hard disk should I buy?
    or
    What are the specifications for the internal hard drive that must be met to suit my MBP?
    Getting my internal hard disk replaced is something I've never done before.
    I have a MBP, (13-inch, Mid 2012 model)

  • Files not compatible with macbook pro

    i have difficulty opening files on my macbook pro, the senders of the files tell me to use windows as their files aren't compatible with apple. is there a way to convert files

    If you take a document, and TextEdit can handle some Word files. or if you use Pages (you have to EXPORT) files to Word format.
    They are providing an exe is Windows only and read-only that won't run natively on Mac OS.
    Not sure what TV  has to do with this.
    Use Windows 7 and VirtualBox to do your word.

  • Why iphone 4s bluetooth is not compatible with MacBook Pro 13 new

    Both devices do not talk via Bluetooth. Their mutual compatibility will help in transferring stuff across both devices such as short video projects and personally designed songs.

    File transfer is not a supported Bluetooth protocol of the iPhone.

  • Rocketfish adapter not working with MacBook Pro 13 inch

    I have a rocketfish HDMI to mini displayport adapter. I have tried to connect it to a 22 inch monitor and a 50 inch TV as an extended monitor but the MacBook does not recognize the extended display.
    Any ideas on how to resolve or is the adapter not supported?

    Check this post if you want more info:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2774718
    The gist is that DVI is currently very iffy through Thunderbolt. Mini display -> mini display OR mini display -> HDMI should work fine. It's most likely not your adapter itself but the fact that it's DVI.
    If you can, get a mini display -> HDMI adapter and try that (assuming your external has HDMI).
    I should hear back tomorrow or Monday from apple engineers with more specific info about this issue and I will update then.
    BTW- DVI anywhere in the chain will make things fail. Mini Display -> DVI and a DVI/HDMI cable won't work with any reliability (I've tested it on three completely different monitors).

  • Is the latest 280.26 nvidia driver compatible with MacBook Pro 6,2 model?

    Is the latest nvidia driver (280.26) compatible with MacBook Pro 6,2 model)? Boot Camp 4.0 comes with the 262.41 nvidia driver, but I'd like to upgrade to the latest 280.26. The official 280.26 driver page on the nvidia site says that GeForce GT 330M is compatible, but in the footnote is written this thing:
    Notebooks supporting Hybrid Power technology with Intel chipsets are not supported by this release
    Do you think this is the case of MacBook Pro 6,2 model? Can I upgrade the driver without any problem?
    P.S.
    I've the nvidia geforce gt 330m 256 MB.

  • External hard drive compatible with macbook pro 10.5.8

    external hard drive compatible with macbook pro 10.5.8, i need a hard drive that will work with 10.5.8 to back everything up before upgrading to 10.6. a hard drive that is compatable with 10.5.8 has been impossible to find, a hard drive that works with both opperating systems is what i am looking for, any information that can help is appreciated

    You can buy just about any USB2.0 hard drive and use it with your MacBook Pro.  Many older external drives come pre-partitioned and formatted FAT32 for use on Windows.  Your Mac can use that file system as well, but it has limitations on file sizes.  You can always re-partition your external drive and re-format it as HFS+ (MacOS Extended Journaled) then your old Mac OS version and your new one should both be able to access it just fine.  One thing to keep in mind is that many older OSes don't really handle drives larger than 2TB well, so you would probably want to try to keep your external drive to something smaller than 2TB...

    Generally signing out and signing in (signing out and back into the Creative Cloud application ) will fix this. If it isn't resolving the issue for you, let us know what you see and we can try something else.

    The USB SuperDrive only works on Macs without SuperDrive, so it's not compatible with your Mac. You have to use your internal SuperDrive to install Windows
