  • Thinking of purchasing Illustrator 10 - what are the Mac system requirements

    Thinking of purchasing Illustrator 10 - what are the Mac system requirements. I have a G4 10.4 and a MacBook Pro OSX 10.9 Maverick!

    Hi, welcome to the forum.

    Did you actually mean version 10, as in Illustrator 10 from 2001?
    If so:
    • Your G4 with OS X 10.4 (2005-2007) would probably run it, (using Rosetta if needed / PPC based).
    • OS X 10.9 will definitely not allow install or run it.

    • Macintosh: Power PC Processor G3, G4, or G4 dual; Mac OS software 9.1, 9.2 or Mac OS X 10.1; 128 MB Ram; 180 MB available disk space; For Postscript printing, printers capable of Adobe PS levels2 or 3.
    • Windows: Intel Pentium II and above; Windows 98 and above; 128 MB Ram; 180 MB available disk space; For Postscript printing, printers capable of Adobe PS levels2 or 3.

  • What are good quality speakers to purchase for mini mac

    what are good quality speakers to purchase for mini mac?

    While I can't recommend any brand of camera, you should consider a couple of things about the editing... iMovie 8 is a good program to use if you just need to create something quickly with little real editing and sound manipulation. And iM 8 will interface with both DV tape cameras as well as hard disk/flash drive types as well. You can export the product to web services, etc very easily but it will take some extra effort to create a DVD from the edited shots. There is no direct export to iDVD.
    If you want to get more serious about editing, you should consider looking iMovie 6 as it has much more flexibility in rearranging clips, adding and editing sounds, etc. However, it will only interface with DV tape cameras, which by the way, are the highest quality pics available, and you can create DVD disks.
    You might try borrowing a tape camera to make a test run and compare it to a camera that uses a HD for storage. Use iM 8 and compare to ease, etc, and the product to one created in iM 6. This certainly is not the kind of recommendation you are asking for, but maybe will help in making your decision about which way to go.

  • I don't have the up to date system requirements to run iCloud on my mac but would still like to access my email on my mac.  I think I need to update my settings, but am not sure what to do.  Can anyone help.  thanks

    I don't have the up to date system requirements to run iCloud on my mac but would still like to access my email on my mac.  I think I need to update my settings, but am not sure what to do.  Can anyone help.  thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you haven't done so already you need to migrate your mail account to iCloud first and do so IMMEDIATELY at the website Move
    Then
    Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
    Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.

  • What are the best storage systems to archive inactive (but still used) apps and files?

    What are the best storage systems to archive inactive (but still used) apps and files of all types? I already have a Time Casule which I back up on and I'm needing to create more space in my flash drive in my Mac Pro, so I need another external storage system I can use to archive all that I don't currently need. I may still wish to edit and use the files, and I am not very techy and am a broke student... so anything grossly expensive is a no-no for me (between $50 and $200 is idyllic). If you could simply post links of different good/useful hard-drives that I can use, I'd be thankful.
    Thank you
    p.s. I'm australian, so anything within this country would be great. Or I can deal with somewhere that has cheap shipping.   

    It's been moved and seconded. Any discussion? Yes:
    Buy two external drives. Use one for Time Machine. Be sure this drive is at least twice the capacity of your computer's hard drive. Use the second drive as a bootable clone of your computer's hard drive. Should something happen you can immediately get the computer up and running from the clone until your restore from the Time Machine backup. This is what is called redundancy. Should either backup drive fail, there's another to take its place. Backup redundancy is very important. You can never have too many backups.

  • What are the optimal hardware specification requirements for Adobe Photoshop CS6?

    Greetings to the staff and users of this forum,
    As the title clearly stipulates, the question is "What are the optimal hardware specification requirements for Adobe Photoshop CS6?".
    Unfortunately, I am not satisfied with the specs specified on the website, as I believe they are far lesser than the specs needed to run the program at its full potential. This belief comes from my experience with the product Adobe Photoshop CS2 that I currently run on my computer. In effect, Ps CS2 cannot fully run without inducing time lags on my computer (i.e. when using 500 pix diameter smudge tool/ using liquify gallery), even though my specs are already higher than those specified for CS6 (mine are: Intel Core 2 Duo 6300 1.86 GHz, 3 GB RAM). I can assure you that I get those time lags even when almost in safe mode (only system main processes running) and that my computer is clean from any process/virus that could lower its performances.
    I've been through two chat rooms and four telephone operators to always get the same answer: the specs on the website.
    If any user here could provide me with proper higher specs, I would really be grateful.
    Thanks,
    phdwengr

  • New mac mini system will not recognize wireless keyboard and trackpad.

    My brand new mac mini system will not initialize properly.  The return on the track pad are not being recognized, although scrolling is. Any others find this?  Support could not figure this out on the phone.  They sent me out to get new batteries and now they are closed.  Batteries have been changed and still nothing.

    My Mac MINI gave me one heck of a time trying to get it  to recognize my Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. both Apple brand.
    I finally had to connect an old USB mouse and keyboard to get the silly thing to connect. 
    Don't forget to repair permissions. 
    I also had to shut the computer down and start it back up a couple of times before it would connect.  I think it has to do with the new Bluetooth 4.0 wireless technology.
    I also turned off my Bluetooth devices and turned them on again, then I pulled the batteries out a couple of times and tried again and again.
    I also put in new battries even thiough the ones I replaced were about a week old.
    Finally, the MINI recognised the mouse and keyboard.
    I wish I could tell you which thing did the trick.

  • Whats a good mac to use for a home flight simulator with flight controls and foot pedals?

    whats a good mac to use for a home flight simulator with flight controls and foot pedals?
    My old 6100 AV worked great on A10 ATTACK, back in 1993.
    whats a good set up now a days?
    I havent seen any MAC set ups as a lot of the after market accessories are on  Windows platform.
    Is there a way or should I get a dedicated simulator on PC?

    The fact that USB flight input devices appear to Windows only is not a limitation; for Mac most are programmed through the sim itself. I know X-Plane does that.
    I've simmed a lot and know that good sims need a lot of processor and video hardware horsepower, and you'll also need a lot of RAM. They also run up the internal temps. A Mac Pro has better cooling than an iMac. You can get a program like SMCFanControl to manually set up the fans speeds before starting the sim.
    I know of no sims today that will still run on a PowerPC Mac (2005 and earlier) so you need to look to an Intel Mac with top specs. If looking at iMacs, start by looking for the quad-core i7 processor. Those models usually came with an up-rated video card. Thing 12 to 16GB RAM.
    My 2010 iMac has the 2.93gHz i7 processor, video hardware (ATI 5750) with 1TB VRAM, and 12 GB of RAM. It runs the x-Plane 10 demo fine but I've not bought the full version because v10 seems to make foot pedals darned near mandatory, and I don't want $100 worth of pedals under my regular work desk at the moment.

  • What are the security implications of having JAVA running on my Mac Book Pro?

    What are the security implications of having JAVA running on my Mac Book Pro?

    Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.

    what are the mac-compatible internal/external dvd burner for 12"Pbook

    ibodnano:
    You will find internal optical drivers from OWC here. You will find external DVD burners from OWC here.
    For the external drives, almost any Firewire burner will be supported by your PowerBook. Here are a few. You can further refine the filters.
    Good luck.

  • FC Express HD doesn't install regardless of meeting min system requirements

    hi. Has anyone else had this experience? I've tried to install FCE on my system - power mac G4, OS X 10.4.7, 867 MHz Processor, 640 MB SDRAM. all of which meet min system requirements. But it won't install. On the install screen, it gives me livetype and its media, and soundtrack and its media as options to install, and I did in fact install them but FCE is always grayed-out.
    Any ideas? Many thanks.
    bdunn

    Which version is this, 3 or 3.5? Which computer is this exactly? Is it running an upgrade card? You should contact Apple if you have an installation problem.
