So confused: Prem Elements 9.0 or the new 10.0, laptop with i7 processor or quadcore with XP Pro???

I bought a Panasoninc SD700 camcoder a year ago, knowing that the editing part was not solved then. Now there's enough video material to do something about it. And then the jungle expedition with possible mines starts!
Bought today a Sony VAIO laptop. Good price (I think). It has an i7 processor with 2,0 Ghz and 8 GB RAM. It had Premiere Elements 9.0 pre-installed. I played with it tonight but the imported AVCHD (mts) files from the SD-card lags when using the software! Isn't the processor power enough? This new laptop has a blu-ray-player installed and Windows 7 Premium, 64 bits.
I have also an older stand-alone PC with Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 processor, 2,4 Ghz, 3,25 GB RAM, run with XP Professional Service pack 3. This computer does not have a blu-ray-burner. I heard, though, that they can be purchased and connected with USB.
So what do I do? Buy another Prem Elements 9.0 for the standalone pc and hope that the editing works there? Wait for Prem Elements 10.0 and install it - where, which computer if at all? Upgrade the laptop processor to something better - but what, does i7 have dual core?
Can't you just make a video on your pc without burning anything and then play it from there connected with HDMI to the HDTV?
Help! I don't know what to do!

Thanks a lot Steve! I feel a bit calmer. When browsing through different forums you easily get worried, because it seems nobody knows for sure.
Just to make sure: the Premiere version 9.0 that was installed on the VAIO couldn't produce a steady flow when the AVCHD-files ran thru. But you mean version 10.0 will manage? Has version 10.0 capabilities that version 9.0 didn't have? I have no problem buying version 10.0 but I cannot buy and test and find out that it didn't work again. That's getting too expensive.
I am not shooting in 60p with the camcorder. I read that it was hardly possible to see a difference between 60i and 60p and 60p takes twice the space. I also heard that there was no program out there managing to edit 60p. Even 60i on the new flat-tv screen (from Sony) is such an awesome improvement from my old camcorder (DV tape) back in 2004, that everybody is amazed, even guys that are normally very technically skilled - which I am not.
According to the sales guy the VAIO has no blu-ray burner, just a blu-ray player. But I suppose it has some kind of burner anyway? Haven't checked that out. The stand-alone pc has no blu-ray burner. But is it an option worth trying to buy a blu-ray burner and connect with a USB-cable to either machine? When the blu-ray disc is ready I can put it into the VAIO and connect to the HDTV and show the movie. I have no use for an ordinary blu-ray-player.
If this workflow is okay will I then get the same result on the tv screen as I get today when connecting the camcorder directly to the HDTV with a HDMI-cable? No loss of quality?

    It is not viewable on your old computer.  We may be able to get you a replacement serial number.  Do you still have your proof of purchase for Photoshop Elements 5?

    You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
    iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year.  It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you.  Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices.  See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

    Hello,
    Versions 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 are actually patched version of APEX 3.1. As such, they don’t introduce new features, but mainly fix bugs from the main release. If you want to learn specific details about these versions, you should read the readme file attached to the patch set files (on metalink).
    It’s always best to work with the latest patched version, as it reduces your chances to encounter bugs. In general, so far the new APEX versions added many new features and technologies, while maintaining backward compatibility, so existing applications functionality is not impaired. Personally, I don’t see any reason not to upgrade and use the latest version, certainly when you are comparing 3.1 to 3.1.2.
    Regards,
    Arie.

    It is against TOU to speculate on these message board.  Suggest you post your question on the Mac Rumors site.
    As I already stated, there is no 10.6.8 update.  If there was, it would be listed in Software Update.

  • The new firefox 33.1 and 34 are not compatible with my school Blackboard account

    I have used Firefox since it was first introduced. I prefer it to MS Explorer. However the new Firefox, 33.1 and 34 are not compatible with my school Blackboard account, so I had to delete Firefox and use Explorer. I would prefer to use Firefox. Is an earlier version (Prior to 33.1) still available?

    It's been a few years since we have had many questions about Blackboard compatibility with Firefox, but overall the problems in that past had to do with either Blackboard not updating in a timely manner ''[which I don't think is the case any longer]'' OR the school wasn't running the latest version of Blackboard software ''[which considering the current state of many government budgets, may be the case now.]''.
    ''It appears that - http://www.blackboard.com/ - is a new or greatly modified website, as the bookmarks I have saved for reference pages on their website come as 404, so I can't find the information I have used in the past.''
    My advice is to install Firefox Portable ESR to your hard drive for use at that Blackboard website and continue to use Firefox 34 for other purposes. The "portable" version will instal and use a Profile that is totally separate from your regular Firefox installation - so you can have two separate Firefox versions installed without any problems.

    '''ESR''' stands for Extended Support Release.

    Upgrading to Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later

  • Can i upgrade the new OS X Lion for free if i bought my MacBook pro 13" around Apr 2011 in store?

    Hi eveyone,i just check online that you are entitle for a free upgrade to new OS X Lion  if you buy a mac book pro from June to July 2011. Can i upgrade the new OS X Lion for free if i bought my MacBook pro 13" around Apr 2011 in store?

    When it says on Apples website that it runs from june - july 2011, I seriously doubt you can get it for free when you bought it already in April.

    Im switching email accounts on my itunes account am the computer isnt recognizing purchases made from my other account on the new one (apps). How can I sign in with my new account and get the purchases apps on both accounts?

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:

    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?

    If the serial numbers were prominently listed, I wouldn't be in here asking questions.  The instructions said the serial number would be emailed to me or show up in my account.  I got neither one.  I tried the one off the original CS2 Premium CD box,
