What is the best way to have access to OSX and OS9 from the same machine?

  • What is the best way to have access from two separate computers on a network to a large group of data files and be able to modify the dat from each system?

    Have three systems: MacBook Air, iMac 27, running current software and an older iMac 24 running earlier version of OS-X.  All connected using Airport through a Linksys router.  Have a large number of folders (2800 equal to 1.5 TB) and need to be able to update from both MB Air and the 27 as well as have some sort of at least weekly backup.  What is the best approach to accomplishing this? This is a small home network used to store audio books for the blind.

    I would recommend a proper NAS.. Synology or QNAP are top brands.
    OR, getting another lightweight computer as a server. eg newest Mac Mini or second hand one with large storage, USB3 or thunderbolt.
    Apple routers could be pressed into service but are not designed for this task.. they will be slow, and without ability to backup.

  • Best ways to run FCP 10.1 and FCP 7 on same machine?

    I though I understood this complication was resolved with the introduction of FCP 10.1.  Is having FCP 10.1 and FCP7 on the same drive and partition still a problem.  I have partitioned my SSD Boot drive in case if it is, however had planned on using only half for Applications ONLY and the other half for occasional projects.  I really didn't want any applications (FCP 10.1) on a cluttered partition.
    I thought I read about a work around to keeping FCP 10.1 and 7 together in the same application partition.  It had something to do with just taking all the application out of the old Final Cut Studio folder and just dropping them in the (root) folder.  If this is really possible, this sounds like the best solution to my issue.
    Thank you in advance for any help you can lend me.

    Yikes.  Ok Ok.  Im going to load Mavericks then load FCP 10.1 in the same Applications folder as my current Final Cut Studio.
    If anyone has any second thoughts or additional warnings please let me know.
    I will give an update ASAP.
    Thank you.
    As Ian has discussed loading the apps is a piece of cake.
    What can happen if you have updated over one or more Operating Systems is that any "bad luggage" contained in a previous system can be inherited.
    That is why a "Clean install" is done.
    Another thing worth considering is using another drive altogether to load Mavericks "Clean Install" and boot from that. It's called dual boot.
    This would leave you existing drive and stuff untouched.
    Your call on this.

  • What is the best way to re-install my apps data when changing the hard disk

    My MacBook (120Gb disk) is finally full and I have ordered a 500Gb disk to replace it.
    I am fine with changing over the disk but can anyone tell me the best way to reload all my apps and data from the present disk please?
    I have a Time Machine backup on a Network disk, a copy of SuperDuper and also my original 10.5 OSX install disks.
    Thanks

    Roger, since you have SuperDuper, I think the easiest thing to do would be to make a clone of your current hard drive to the new one when it arrives. You will need an external enclosure for the new drive; make sure it's formatted to Mac OS Extended (Journaled); Disk Utility will do this for you. Then connect that new drive via firewire or USB, and create the clone from your current drive using SuperDuper. Next, remove the internal drive from your Mac, insert the new drive and boot up. You can then place your older drive in the external enclosure to use for extra storage, though it won't be large enough to use as a cloned backup with SuperDuper.
    Good luck!

  • What is the best way to remotely access my sister in laws Mac who lives in another city to help her with her computer problems?

    What is the best way to remotely access my sister in laws Mac who lives in another city to help her with her computer problems?

    The best way? Get her to bring it to you, especially if she makes good cakes.
    Apples Back to my Mac isn't really suitable for this - it is designed for a single person who wants their Apple ID on the system. It would mean she would have to share hers with you & you would also have to setup her Apple ID on your Mac - it is messy & causes trouble with iCloud, iTunes etc.
    You can try Messages if she is able to begin a session with you, see the 'invite to share screen' in the menus, weirdly you need to use a service that isn't from Apple.
    Messages (Mavericks): Share your screen
    It may be better if you to setup LogMeIn or GoToMyPC. They should 'dial out' & maintain a constant connection so you can login whenever the Mac is powered up. It won't, require a human to initiate the process at the other end, just be aware that the router may cause issues depending on what is configured, you may need settings to enable automatic port forwarding - it really depend on which option you choose.

  • What is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?

    what is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?

    You don't have to do anything special. If possible, start your project with a clip that has the desired target frame rate and audio sample rate, and your project parameters will be set automatically. Other sample rates will be converted under the covers.
    For example, if your video is shot at 48khz, you can add music files at 44.1khz with no problem.
    If you are recording audio that you want to synch with video (multicam), you will get best results if everything is 48khz, but you can use 44.1 if that is all you have. Once I forgot to reset my Zoom to 48,000 and it still worked.

    whats the best way to transfer all my pic and vid files from Mac Air to back up drive to free up space on hard disk?

    Get a third drive if needed, open the Time Machine pane of System Preferences, set it not to exclude that drive, and drag the files to it. If you're moving an iTunes or iPhoto library, launch the application with the Option key held down and choose the moved library.

  • I am wondering if it will be a good move to install fusion 5 on my iMac. I am wondering since I did the split to run windows 7 if this means that I will have to erase all and start from the beginning

    I am wondering if it will be a good move to install fusion 5 on my iMac. I am wondering since I did the split to run windows 7 if this means that I will have to erase all and start from the beginning

    From what you say, I understand that you already installed Windows 7 on a second volume. Is this correct?
    In that case, it doesn't make sense to use VMware Fusion unless you want to run Windows and OS X at the same time. If you do that, you will keep all your data.
    If you haven't installed Windows 7 and you want to install it in VMware Fusion, you will be installing it in a virtual machine, so you won't lose anything.
    I recommend you to have a look at VirtualBox first > http://www.virtualbox.org It's free and it's sufficient for most of users

    I am writing a book and need to have the margins alternating left and right pages, so that there is sufficient margin for the binding. I have tried different inside and outside margins, the same inside and outside margins, facing pages, changing the master, and I cannot get the margins to alternate at print time. The larger margin is always on the left. Can anyone please help me on this, as I have spent hours and lots of ink.

    Set up as facing pages with a larger inside margin.

    Agreed.  Even the iPhone has multiple built-in keyboards to choose from.

    You are not going to be able to run your old system from the backup on this old computer as the hardware is incompatible.
