The 1 mil $ Q = Will the new intel chips be able to run Windows Vista?

Ditto?

Doesn't the "new" Windows operating system take up more system resources than Windows XP? Will that affect how my Mac operates?

  • Updgrade to the new Intel chip

    I ordered my IMac G5 on November 30th. and received it on December 7th.
    When less than a month later I saw the new intel chip and ILife version I got angry to Apple customer service for not telling me about this change.
    Is there anything I can do to upgrade my Mac?
    Thanks,
    Adrian

    Hi Adrian;
    When you ordered the iMac G5 you had certain plans for it. With the announcement of the Intel iMac, what is your iMac G5 not doing for you now?
    Or is this more a matter of envy, you iMac G5 is no longer the newest thing?
    If you most have the latest and greatest, you can always sell it on eBay and order the new Intel iMac.
    It is your call but if it is doing what you bought it to do, I personally would ignore the fact that is the latest and greatest and just use it.

  • Hard drive on my mac died, installed new hard drive.  When I try to sync my phone for the first time, will the computer wipe all the songs, photos, ibooks from my phone?

    hard drive on my mac died, installed new hard drive.  When I try to sync my phone for the first time, will the computer wipe all the songs, photos, ibooks from my phone?

    Yes because that information is not located on the hard-drive of your new mac! If it is purchased content from the store, than this issue isn't as bad as it looks!
    Here is a link explaining how to get your previously purchased content back:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    You also want to authorize your Apple ID account on the computer by following these instructions as well:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1730
    Basically this link explains to go to the top left corner of your screen where you will see file, edit, view etc! Click on Store in that section and click on authorize this computer, also you want to make sure that the computer will not automatically sync by going to iTunes in the top left corner, just to the right of the apple symbol if iTunes is selected, and go to prefrences, and here you will see back up! Right under the back-ups has an option explaining to prevent devices from automatically syncing which is good cause you may be able to transfer your purchases from there which will put your content into the computer, and if that happens than we don't lose anything
    Hopefully I was of some help:)

    If i buy an iPhone 5s from the United States will the iPhones warranty be honoured in New Zealand?

    Warranty for the iPhone is not and has never been International.
    Purchase the device in the country where it is intended to be used.
    Also, be aware that there is no gurantee that an iPhone from the US will work on LTE anywhere else in the world.

  • New Intel Chip Compatibility & Dual Boot

    Hi folks,
    Just heard about Apple's new Intel chip compatibility and had a quick question. I develop software on the Windows platform primarily but would love to be able to run the Mac OS for testing of web browser-related stuff plus the BSD-related stuff on the same computer.
    Can this new O/S be installed as one boot partition of a dual/multi-boot computer? If so would you be kind enough to point me to the appropriate URLs?
    Thanks!
    Best,

    PowerPC Macs can run a Microsoft application called Virtual PC that allows you to install and run Windows on a Mac. VPC emulates a PC, so it's fairly slow, but it's fine for doing things like checking websites for compatibility in Windows IE, etc. That's primarily what I use it for.
    The new Intel Macs can't run Virtual PC (yet anyway), nor can they currently boot Windows, although supposedly that will change when Windows Vista comes out. Also, Microsoft is reportedly planning to release a version of Virtual PC that will run on the Intel Macs, and that should provide near native speed for Windows inside of Mac OS X.
    As for running OS X on a PC, you can't.

  • New Intel chips

    Hi
    I want to upgrade my 12" Powerbook to a MBP. However I keep hearing comments (rumours) about the new Intel chips. Can someone please explain:
    1. What the chip is?
    2. What difference will it make to the current MBP confguration?
    3. When is it likely to appear?
    4. Should I buy now or really wait for the new chips?
    Thanks.

    However I keep hearing comments (rumors) about the new
    Intel chips. Can someone please explain:
    I'm assuming you know that MBPs already use Intel chips and that you are referring to the Merom. Speculation is good in preparing us for what is to come, but there has been no official word on anything. In fact, there has been no unofficial word either. The fact, however, is that and a couple of Windows based laptop manufacturers have already announced the use of the Merom in their premier laptop computers. Apple is usually the leader of the pack, and unless they plan on taking a completely different route and surprising us once again, they should not be very far behind. Some speculate end of September.
    1. What the chip is?
    As far as I know it is the Intel Core 2 Duo (Merom). In brief, it's just better and faster. I'm sure someone else can give the specifics.
    2. What difference will it make to the current MBP configuration?
    Since there is no official or unofficial word on this, there is no way we can speculate as tot he MBP's setup.
    3. When is it likely to appear?
    Speculation lends to late September, but nothing official or unofficial.
    4. Should I buy now or really wait for the new chips?
    If it is not business-critical, I would absolutely wait.

  • New intel chips, and Logic Pro 7

    How well does logic pro 7 run on the new intel chip sets?

    According to users on the Logic forum here, Logic Pro 7.2 and above (the Universal Binary release of Logic) works very well on Intel Mac. Anything below 7.2 is PowerPC only, and will work very poorly on an Intel Mac, if it works at all.

  • I own Logic Pro 7( I used to have a PowerPC  and need to upgrade to Logic Pro 9 (new Intel chip, system 10.8) .  Do I need to buy a whole new set or do I upgrade for less cost?

    I own Logic Pro 7( I used to have a PowerPC  and need to upgrade to Logic Pro 9 (new Intel chip, system 10.8) .  Do I need to buy a whole new set or do I upgrade for less cost?

    The cost of the Full Logic Pro 9 from the App Store is less than the cost of the discontinued Boxed Upgrade set for Logic Studio (if you could find one) ... so you might as well purchase the full Logic Pro 9 from the App store and be done.

  • My itunes library has gone following a laptop rebuild.  I do have my iPod which is up to date - can I transfer from the iPod to the library or will the iPod lose all its data if I snyc?

    My itunes library has gone and is empty following a laptop rebuild.  I do have my iPod which is up to date with music, photos, apps etc - can I transfer from the iPod Touch to the library or will the iPod lose all its data if I sync to the laptop?  PLEASE HELP!

    I'm guessing you've got iPod touch 2nd generation
    iPod touch 2nd generation only goes up to 4.2.1, so you'll need a newer generation...
    iPod touch 3rd generation only goes up to 5.1.1
    4th and 5th generation both go up to iOS 6.1.3, wich is the current latest version.
    Hope this helps

  • If I edit an audio file that is already on my ipod in the itune library will it change the file on the ipod or will the file on the ipod overwrite the file in itunes?

    I have some audio files that could be edited to remove portions I don't need.  They were lectures that has some portions which I like to remove.  If I edit the file in the itunes library will it be able to sense that with even the same name the file has changed and update my ipod, ipad an so forth?  Or will the files on the devices be moved back and overwrite the newer version?  Or perhaps will  I need to do all of this by hand?  Thanks

    - Only iTunes purchases will copy from iPod to computer.
    - If you sync manually and do not specify those modified songs to sync they will not sync to the iPod nor will the original version be deleted from the iPod
    - If you sync automatically and include those songs or select the modified songs to sync manually, the songs in the iPod should be replaced with the modified songs. However sometimes that does not happen

    No idea if Windows will do it, but you can run Windows without Bootcamp & have OSX available at the same time, which should give you all the Monitors that OSX uses.

    No. Replacements are always the same as what is being replaced. No back camera now means no back camera after replacement.
