Using a shuffle on a Mac and PC...problems with PC

I just bought a shuffle and it works fine with my mac. When I take it to university and plug it into an HP PC I get a "Power Error" message. Please help.....

Check the power settings for the HP in both the BIOS and Device Manager. They may be set to something other than Hi-Power. Also, make sure another device connected to the HP is not robbing power from the ports.
Remember that when you get it working, the Shuffle can only be linked to one computer/library at a time. It will tell you when you connect to the HP that you are linked to another computer and do you want to link to this one? If you say yes, it will erase all the songs on the Shuffle. Your workaround is copy files in disk mode or using 3rd party software such as Xplay or Winamp.

Has anyone tried to use Elements 9 on their Mac and had problems?

Trying to use Elements 9 on my mac, but find that the create and effects editing part of the package are not working. Does anyone else have this problem?

We have already uninstalled and re-installed it a few times, but it did'nt make any difference. Have also e-mailed Adobe about this but as yet have had no response. I know not all Mac users are having this problem, which is why its so frustrating.

I use an iMac (27" 3.4) and have problems with the Magic Mouse. It does not use contact, but opens useless and unrelated submenus with every click, even on the empty desktop. I can't shift, open or close pages. Has anyone out there the same problem?

I use an iMac 27" (mid 2011). Until recently I had OSX 10.6.8 installed, but both, the HDD and SSD had to be replaced, and I lost all the memory.
After the repair through Apple Care I had OSX 10.7.5. (Lion) installed, which developed a Magic Mouse problem.
Unlike with most users, I have no problems with connection, but grapple with a different kind of erratic behaviour.
All fancy stuff is turned off in the mouse preferences. When I try to move, open or close pages, unrelated submenus pop up and hinder the
required task. No matter how often I click, these menus stay there, and they even come up when clicking on the bare desktop.
It renders the mouse absolutely useless, as no work can be done with it.
The first 'Magic Mouse' had depleted batteries every few days, despite switching it off after use.
I was supplied a new Mouse, which does better battery-wise, but the problems are the same. I can't get a result by clicking on any link, due to
the pop-up menus, so both 'Magic Mice' are totally useless.
At present I am using the old USB mouse from my Mac Pro, and that works still o.k.
The problem are not the mice, but the software. The first 2 weeks after installation of OSX 10.7.5 the Magic Mouse worked though.
I have no idea as to what the reason may be.
Has anyone in the community ever experienced that particular problem. Any hint would be welcomed.
Thank you!

Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
Thanks for the advice, Bee
Cheers, Gerd

I need to synch my iphone, ipod touch and classic to a Mac that I have and 2 I am about to buy. I have legally paid for all my music. If I use migration on my new Macs and clone the original, can I use my iAppliances on all 3 Macs?

Yes.
You can authorize up to 5 computers to play itunes music ( pre-itunes plus). There is no limit on itunes plus ( all itunes music for the past several years) and imported music.
You can sync as many ipods/ipads/iphones as you like to each of your computers.

Are there any differences between using Adobe Illustrator on a MAC and on a PC?

Hello,
I'm about go enroll in a class specialized for teaching Adobe Illustrator in order to be able to use the program at work. The company that I work at uses Macintosh computers to deal with clerical work and everything, so I would like to know if there are any differences between using Adobe Ilustrator on a MAC and on a PC. The school that offers training teaches two types of classes, where one uses Illustrator on a MAC, and the other one on a PC. The PC class is able to have an earlier start date, which is why I'm sort of leaning towards choosing that class as I need to be able to use the software as soon as possible, but if there are main differences between the interface that will affect my knowledge of using Illustrator on a MAC after I take the class with Windows systems, then I will most likely be waiting for the class teaching in MAC systems.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Oh and another suggestion- should I take the Illustrator class in CS6 or CS5?

Reading through the CS5 vs CS6 performance thread, the Mac version seems to have worse performance than Windows version. From a starter's perspective the differences would most likely never be realized. It will take some time to see differences between even CS5 and CS6 other than the visual aspect of course.
Definitely take the CS6 versionso you can say you have it. CS5 is my preferred version, CS6 is garbage with the bugs it has for the type of work I use it for.

Can you use time capsule for your mac and have readynas backup your pc's on the same network

Can you use time capsule for your mac and use readynas to back up your pc's on the same network

Sure, that is trivial setup.. they both have different names and IP addresses.
You should be able to use ReadyNas for TM backup but you should check the latest state of play for that.

How: MS Word to .pdf by Command P, hitting the PDF button, and then the button for "save as Adobe pdf"
I didn't have this problem at all on prior versions of Adobe on my PC.   This isn't a Mac attack, is it?

I'm using CS5 extended on a Mac and can't save png's. The program stops responding and I have to force quit.

Thanks.
I am in RGB colour space, but when I try to save a PNG photoshop stops responding and I have to force quit.

All the info you do with your image files is stored in the Lightroom Catalog file. The Catalog file cannot be located on a network it must have a physical connection to the computer.
While the Catalog is in use a LOCK file will be temporarily placed alongside which prevents its use by any other device.

Caveman with club defeats ALL .mac and idisk problems!

Well, I'm pretty proud of myself. Like many others after upgrading to Leopard, had myriad .mac and idisk problems including, but not limited to: couldn't mount idisk on desktop, can't enable syncing of .mac on various computers, couldn't register a computer. I tried the log out, log in option in .mac. Also tried removing the syncservices folder from Home>Library>Application Support folder. I also tried reinstalling the system from a download of 10.5.1 udpate, repairing permissions, and every other trick I read about on the discussion forum. The ultimate solution for me? Open Keychain Access application in the Application>Utilities folder, show all the items and delete every item with '.mac' in it! Restarted computer, now idisk mounts fine, login to .mac works fine, and syncing works perfectly and I can register the previously unregisterable computer. While I have no logical explanation for this, because I don't understand enough about the Keychains to say why it worked, it clearly fixed the problem. Syncing has happened fine, using idisk is fine and all is well! Oh yes, I had a backup of my computer to an external drive before proceeding with my various interventions. Best of luck and don't be afraid to swing your caveman club wildly in the dark... you just might hit something worthwhile

I'm having exactly ONE of the problems Joshua lists here ... my iDisk will not mount to my desktop. All else works fine with my iDisk.
I don't see any responses to the original post. Help anyone?

Snow Leopard is a Mac OS X version. You say that it's the version you have in your Mac (10.6.8). Do a back up of your files, format the hard drive (using Disk Utility) and reinstall again

I'm using an iBook G4. I'm having a problem with a lengthy Microsoft Word (2003) document crashing. It keeps telling me that there's a problem and then working and working. I have to do a forced shutdown.

I'm using an iBook G4. I'm having a problem with a lengthy Microsoft Word document. It keeps freezing when I try to make a change in it. The computer is working and working. Then I have to use a forced shutdown. And it starts all over again. Suggestions?

Is there sufficient free space on the iBook's startup disk (typically called Macintosh HD)? The OS and apps use free space to write temporary files, and it free space becomes too low, it can cause the Mac to bog down. Low free space also makes whatever free space is left fragment into tiny pieces scatter all over the hard drive, making the problem even worse. If it more than 90% full, you should free up some space.
