What am i supposed to do with this?

I cannot believe how rapidly Apple has declined since Steve Jobs.
  About a year age a bought a mini mac.
what a great tool.
Very fast, ran all my graphic programs and was able to burn projects to DVD.
  So A few weeks ago bought a new mac mini and it came with Lion
which will not run any of my adobe graphic programs and it has no DVD drive.
  What is the point of having programs like imovie and iDVD if you cannot burn DVD's.
  To run my graphic programs I tried to install my old Snow leopard OS but that too was impossible.
  So I am stuck with a machine that cannot run any of my MAC programs and doesn't even have a DVD drive.
I can't even use this machine as a DVD player.
So what am I supposed to do with it?

Consider installing Snow Leopard (and Rosetta) into Parallels 7 in Lion.  At least you will be able to run your PPC apps:

    I have the "Nike + iPod" App again what am I suppose to do with it, this would be my second time. Someone told me it has serious implications is this true?

    "Someone told me it has serious implications is this true?"
    Serious implications?
    If you have a Nike+ sensor in your shoe then you would use it to track you run.
    Otherwise, you would do nothing with it.

  • I preordered an iphone 6 16gb on 9/18 i'm leaving the country for a week what am i suppose to do if this thing comes when i'm not here ? please spare me the whole " i know your excited about your phone" thing

    no one can give me a straight answer on when this thing is coming. what was the point of the preorder. what am I suppose to do if this thing comes when I'm not in the country with no access to my email. very disappointed in Verizon.

    littlechuga40oz If you're only going to be gone for a short period of time, and your package ships via FedEx, you can request a vacation hold once you receive your tracking information.  I don't know about UPS but I'm sure they'd have something similar to what FedEx does. @

  • So what am I supposed to do with a .msp file?

    So what am I supposed to do with a .msp file?  It has no file association under Windows 7, yet Adobe points users who wish to patch their current version of Acrobat 9 Pro to a web page with download links to .msp files.

    >> Apparently you have deactivated the MS Installer.
    No, that's not true.  Windows Installer Service is active and running as a service.
    There simply is no file association with MSP.  How about you creating a text file using NOTEPAD and naming the file with a .MSP file extension.  Then go to MY COMPUTER and double click on the .MSP file.  Does Windows recognize the file type, or does it ask you to select a program to run the .MSP file with?
    Thanks for the assistance, but my problem has not changed in the least.

  • I have just rented a film through my Apple TV (2) which I cannot play, The screen says "HDCP is not supported by your HDMI connection". What am I supposed to do about this?

    I have just rented a film through my Apple TV (2) which I cannot play. The screen says "HDCP is not supported by your HDMI connection." What am I supposed to do about this? Thanks in anticipation.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    HDCP is copy protection built into iTunes video content, the Apple TV requires all devices to be HDCP compatible before it will send HDCP content to them. In simplistic terms the Apple TV asks the TV if the signal it will send can be recorded, if it gets the right answer it will send the signal, if it doesn't receive a reply it won't.
    Your problem may be one of unsupported equipment or may simply be an error. You could start by checking if your TV is HDCP compliant. If it is the problem might be cabling or another device (such as a receiver) between the Apple TV and TV, it may also just be a glitch which might be resolved by a simple restart.

  • What am i supposed to do with my awful X-FI fatali

    Since you guys state this message that nvidia nforce4 motherboards are the cause and not your card what am i supposed to do? The box never listed such incompatibilites when i bought it. Aside from the awful crackling/pop i also can't even enable eax cause i have 4 gigs of ram. it just doesn't work. I am not gonna downgrade my hardware just to use your card. So either come with some good alternati'ves or i will prolly ebay the card. Buy a Barracude AC soundcard and never buy creative again. Also never recommend it to my friends either.
    For having a monopoly in the sound card market you sure seem to be dragging your feet when it comes to support. I can't believe i let me myself get suckered into getting your high end gaming soundcard.

    Ya the 4 gig issue pisses me off.. i can li've with the crackling cuz i know how to control that... i only get it when i have more than 2 applications open that are using the sound.. IE winamp and a game works fine... or a game and ventrillo.. but i cant have all 3 without the crackles even if one is muted

  • Seriously, What am I supposed to feel about this?.

    I didn't know what I should think about and I could not put up with this anymore.
    Roughly a month ago, I had to take my laptop to the tech support again since I had found out a new issue related to a wierd line on the LCD screen.
    As the laptop had already been sent four times and there seemed to be no way to fix it once and for all, the tech support called me to inform that the computer would be replaced by another one exactly with the same specs.
    Recently, I have been sent the new laptop, but unfortunately I figured out the computer does not have the same specs like the other one since it was built with an obsolete motherboard/VGA card (MB 90002353 N14M was replaced by the MB 90000177 N13M-GE, I mean the VGA NVidia 710m was replaced by a worse NVidia 610m).
    I felt hard done-by because I never expected this kind of procedure. Honestly, I'm disappointed in you.
    However, thanks to the reseller I'm no longer a Lenovo user. They kind of felt sorry for everything I'd been going through, so they finally agreed to let me change the laptop for another brand.
    I only hope you won't treat your costumers in the same way I was treated because of I'm sure I'll never and ever buy to this brand again. So, farewell Lenovo.

    I'm looking forward to hearing you get the money back as soon as possible and do away with this brand forever. By the way the info about both laptop's specs are as follows:
    Laptop acquired/replaced:
    Serial S/N: [Moderator Edited to protect member's personal information.]
    VGA graphic on the MB: N14M (Nvidia 710M 1GB RAM)
    New laptop replacement:
    Serial S/N: [Moderator Edited to protect member's personal information.]
    VGA graphic on the MB: N13M-GE (Nvidia 610M 1GB RAM)

  • So what am I suppose to do with 90GB of music once my classic dies

    I have over 90 GB of music in my iTunes how am I suppose to listen to it once my classic dies?

    If your iTunes Library is larger than the iPod you want to put the music onto, use Smart Playlists to automatically control what goes on the iPod.
    For example, a very basic method of control is as follows:
    Create a Smart Playlist that contains all the music in the library if it has not been played for x days/weeks/months. (if this produces too big a list, make the time longer. If it's not large enough, make the time shorter.) Let's say 12 months in this example and we'll name it CGStock
    Sync only the Smart Playlist above (CGStock) and the Recently Played Playlist to your iPod.
    What you end up with on the iPod is;
    any new song you have just added, but not yet played
    any song recently played (the default time in the Apple Recently Played Playlist is two weeks)
    any song not played for 12 months (the time you specified in your Playlist)
    ... and you play them in the same way as you do now (you do not have to use the Playlist to play the song, but simply to control whether the song is on your iPod).
    What would not be on your iPod would be:
    any song played between two weeks and 12 months
    This would reduce the amount of storage you need on your iPod. You could create additional Playlists which ensure that any particular songs are always on the iPod, not matter what the other lists say. The above is simply a very basic example.
    Using this method, if you played a song from a new album, it would drop from the CGStock Smart Playlist, but be added to the Recently Played Playlist, so it stays on the iPod. If you then play that song again within two weeks, it has been recently played (within two weeks) so it stays on the iPod. That song could then be on the iPod six months after you added it to your iTunes Library, because you keep playing it. Then if you decide you don't want to hear it any more, it will automatically be removed from your iPod (at the next Sync) when you have not played it for two weeks. It would then be added back to the CGStock Playlist 12 months after you last played it.

  • Mac Mail... what e-mail accounts will work with this?

    Hello,
    I want to set up my e-mail to work with Mac Mail. I currently have a yahoo account and realize this cannot be done with Yahoo. So, my question is what e-mail account can I set up and use with Mac Mail?
    I am aware that .mac has an account that works, but I am not into paying $100 for that at the moment. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thank you!

    I currently have a yahoo account and realize this cannot be done with Yahoo
    You can use your Yahoo mail if you use their Yahoo Mail Plus service.
    You'll need to enable POP access to your mailbox, then you can setup Mail.app with a new POP account pointing to Yahoo.
    If you don't want to use Mail Plus then you can use any other service that offers POP or IMAP access to your mailbox. However, bear in mind that most free mail services rely on a web-based interface because they use the ads to pay for the service.

    Neelesh,
    Something about the two ways of accessing the same page most make a difference in the use of temporary segments. Have you checked all your tablespaces to make sure they have temp files?
    This query shows you your temporary tablespaces:
    select tablespace_name, contents from dba_tablespaces where contents='TEMPORARY'

    What on earth does this mean? It keeps happening and I'm worried something's really wrong with my poor computer.
    Thanks!

    This is a kernel panic, which indicates something is wrong inside your Mac (probably bad RAM). Read this document for steps to troubleshoot a kernel panic: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html

  • What am I supposed to do with ".do" files?

    My HSA (health savings account) gives me all its statements in files ending in ".do". What is this? I can't get any application to read files like that. What should I do with them? What does ".do" mean?

    Found this on a google search:
    The DO file type is primarily associated with 'Oracle Application Server' by Oracle Corporation.
    Website page with Oracle Database, made with Java EE.
    The .DO file is used by the Oracle Application Server to dynamically make a HTML page (just like a PHP server uses a .PHP file).
    Maybe your HSA admin is using an Oracle database to generate its statements.  Ask them.

  • What am I supposed to do with a bluetooth cellphone not supported by isync?

    I recently purchased a Nokia 6021 which is not supported by isync. After hours of search on the net and in this forum, I have found only one solution that would allow me to sync this Nokia with my address book. This solution (a piece of software) would cost 30$US....I am not willing to shell out 30$ US for a mediocre workaround.
    What I wonder is this: what is a blutooth cell phone good for if I can not sync it with my powerbook G4?
    Are there other uses for bluetooth?
    Does anyone know a cheap workaround?
    I emailed feedback to Apple but realistically I do not expect them to add support for this phone...after all, all it takes is a few lines of script and if they did not add support so far I doubt they will do so in the future....

    It's hard to say what's best…
    I'm no mobile handset expert, but I've heard lots of complaints about the design shortcomings of the Motorola contacts application: about the limit to the number of records it can hold, and the fact that each telephone number—even for the same individual—is treated as a separate contact record on a Motorola unit, making the record limitation an even greater problem. One record in your OS X Address Book with three telephone numbers results in three contact records on a RAZR, for example.
    I would take a serious look at smartphones, like the Palm OS-based Treo 650, the Windows Mobile 5 OS-based Treo 700w, or any other Windows Mobile OS device. I'm not a big fan of Windows Mobile, but these units are powerful when it comes to contacts and calendars. There are also Symbian OS-based units like the SONY Ericsson P910 product family that may appeal to you. I've generally heard very good things about the SONY Ericsson product line.
