What can Aperature do that I can't get elsewhere?
I'm looking through the specs on Aperature.. and for the life of me, I can't seem to get my head around what the product offers that the combination of iPhoto and Photoshop can't handle.
iPhoto organizes, does simple red-eye correction, and can print a book. Photoshop handles the heavy lifting, retouching, image control... Why do I need this product? What am I missing?
The only thing I see is that I can move between Aperature and Photoshop easier than with iPhoto. And I'd have greater control over book design. Is that it? iPhoto handles RAW images. Am I wrong?
You're missing the point. Aperture is about speeding up a professional photographer's workflow (quote from apple.com/aperture):
"Featuring a RAW-focused workflow, Aperture makes RAW as easy as JPEG, letting you import, edit, catalog, organize, retouch, publish, and archive your images more effectively and efficiently than ever before. From capture to output, you work directly with your RAW files, never having to first convert them into another format before viewing, adjusting, organizing, or printing them"
Key is it's faster to do this whole process. If you watch the videos, they all have something in common -- LOTS of images (say, 1000 a day), that have to be compared, and reduced to somewhere between 10 (for an SI article) and 100 (for a wedding photographer), very quickly. Retouching (photo editing) is part of things, but certainly it's not the focus of things.
The ability to group photos into stacks and find the best shots (out of 8 or 10) I'm finding quite useful. While I primarily do landscape (and as a hobby), I often take a similar shot 10 times at different shutter speeds, apertures, and exposures (a little bracketing), so I can find one that captures what I want, exactly. Aperture lets me find that shot quite quickly. Then, at the moment, I am doing most of my editing work in Photoshop, because I understand how to do that better, and because I have some tools (Nik Sharpener Pro, and Noise Ninja, specifically), which do things much better than Aperture can, and because I like the ability to later "tinker" with the levels, curves, and saturation layers I've created. Oh, and I use masks. Lots. I LOVE masks. But this is all really the high-end core Photoshop feature set, and really stuff used for fine art photographers, more than wedding/sports folks. So I still use 2 tools. But I like aperture for rating, tagging, and organizing. I've used iView Media Pro (paid for it), and Bridge, but I like Aperture better, already. And I know it will improve.

But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day and i was forced to use back a backup which i did in my old laptop 4 months ago. do i have to reinstall the itunes? will my backups be corrupted after i sync again? pls guide.
P.S/ its the latest version of the itunes whenever i did the backups.iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

I bought a MBP 13 and I got the £70 App Voucher for being a student, I now want to return the MBP how can I do that? can I just pay the £70 for the app store voucher or what do i need to do?
ThanksIf you have redeemed the voucher for something separate from the computer, then it's a non-issue. If you redeemed it as a price reduction for the computer, then they will return only what you paid less the coupon.

Using OS10.7, my hard disc is full. When I go to "About this Mac - Storage", it shows that it is entirely filled with "Other". Does anyone know what "Other" is so that I can delete some of it?
First, reboot. That will temporarily free up some space. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB free for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data.
Use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space.
Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To really see everything, you have to run it as root.
First, back up all data if you haven't already done so. No matter what happens, you should be able to restore your system to the state it was in at the time of that backup.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
After installing ODS in the Applications folder, drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. When you're done with it, quit it and also quit Terminal. -
Can't believe that I can't run music videos simultaneouslly on ipad. ust spent 2 days trying to do it. Downloaded 2 Apps but they just keep freezing. Come on Apple this must be easy to fix!
first then this is a user helping forum only users like you read or write here if you want apples ear
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
other then that it's unclear what you are trying to do or if it's 1 or 2 things
playing music videos simultaneously would imply you trying to play more then 1 at once, this is not something it support out of the box I'd say.
then there is the 2 apps, are you refearing to apps which should let play many music videos at once?
and do they freeze when you try to download them, or when you try to start them,
and maybe the name of the apps, in question would make it easier for people to help. -
when i was trying to update my iphone 4s from 6.1.4 to ios 7,its asking to change the media sync options,how can i change that option,can any one help me.........?
I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
Thanks very much for your feedback. -
I recently upgraded to a 5s. My clock/radio iPhone plug in was compatible with my iPhone 4 so I could listen to Pandora. Is there an attachment I can buy so that I can still use my clock/radio?
There are 30-pin to Lightning adapters, but I would be afraid it would put the phone too high up and risk damage. I would contact the radio company to see if they offer a unit that has a lightning connector.

I am purchasing a mobile phone after not having one for five years. I like to use Firefox at home and need to know specifically what smart phones use this product. The android 2.2 etc. and the rest really does not mean anything to me. You could tell me how to find this information on your website. I found one page that listed devices but then it said something about going to Google Play Store and you lost me. FYI, I have a very sharp learning curve.

Will Firefox work on my mobile device?
Firefox is compatible with Android 2.2 and above devices. Installation requires about 24 MB internal storage, 384 MB of RAM and a display that is at least 320 pixels high and 240 pixels wide. You can download Firefox for Android or search for Firefox in the Google Play store.
Important: Some of the devices listed here only work with the latest version of Firefox. If you search for Firefox in the Google Play store and don't find it, your device may not be compatible.

I have a "vintage" macbook OS X 10.6.8. I want to get all of my information to the Cloud. I must upgrade to Mountain Lion. I have heard I may loose all of my applications pre 2008. Can anyone help me with this? Most important is my contact list in Mail.
You don't need the Cloud to transfer your data. The first time you boot your new Mac it will boot into Setup Assistant, then prompt you to transfer the data, apps and settings from your old Mac. Do it then, after that it will create a new user and will be problematic.

What typfaces are there that I can use varied weights for East Asian Characters?
I am at a dead end trying to find a typeface which is not a script, which offers me more than one stroke weight for Traditional Chinese and South Korean characters. I need a typeface which will compliment Helvetica.
Please help!
Thank youI can't help you with Korean. As for Chinese, the system fonts for Windows and the Chinese fonts bundled with some Adobe products come in a single weight, as you already know. However, some of the Japanese fonts bundled with InDesign come in multiple weights: various weights of Kozuka Pro _might_ work for traditional Chinese, though some forms occur only in Japanese.
Character set is a big deal, and Chinese fonts vary significantly in the number of characters they contain. Typically, you get more characters in standard weights (i.e., "regular" or "light"). Note, too, that authors frequently use Windows system fonts for Chinese (MingLiU or PMingLiU). These happen to have very large character sets, meaning they contain many variant forms that are not available in most fonts; inevitably, authors use some of these variants and they show up missing in the weight you need.
Dynafont and Arphic packages are pretty well regarded, and included a variety of weights in some styles -- but watch out for character-set issues. I can't recommend a source since the one I used disappeared.
Good luck!

How can you prevent that you can swipe to the next article?
Hi,
I'm creating a folio for a fair.
The purpose is that the clients can choose from a menu which "presentation/article" they would like to view. Then when the article is at his end it should go back to the menu at the beginning.
But now when you are at the end of an article and you swipe to the left you automatically go to the next article.
So my question is: Is there a way to put a "stop" at the end of an article so that the people can't swipe further and so they have no other option than to go back or to click on the home button??
Thanks a lot!!My solution for a simililar scenario was to create a full page, 2-state dumb MSO set to play the slide-show once. Then the home button (or any navigation buttons) was available to tap, while the page itself was resistant to any swipes.
