What kind of video card do I need for Motion 2?

So I just went to load Motion 2 on my laptop - I just had it upgraded to a 120 gig hard drive from a 60 gig, now I have room for all my software but as I went to install Motion 2 I got an error message saying I don't have the right or appropriate video card...Well, what do I need, becasue every other app in FCP studio works fine on my lap top with the video card I have.
What do I need, where to get it and how much?
Thanks much

You need a video card supported by the program, as listed in the Technical Specifications - Sorry
Even if you could find a Dr. Frankenstein to put a card in it would be scetchy at best and pricey to say the least.

What kind of graphic card do I need for second screen?

I have a Mac Pro with GTX 680 card that outputs to a 27" Cinema Display and 42" TV. The TV screen is a few frames of, so I understand I need a separate videocard for the TV so I can adjust this with frame offset in FCP.
What kind of card is suitable for this? There is 30m distance from Mac to TV, is this too long for HDMI cable?

I don't know. My experience with Aja IO card is that's it's more complicated configuring it (at least with fcp7). I have a friend with a macpro and every time we need to use it, it requires playing around with control panel and the view settings within fcp. Maybe operator error. The BlackMagic just usually works although I found with Avid Media Composer 7, if you tried to load material that didn't match the project settings, you could not get the project to every play out through the intensity. You'd have to create a new project and open your existing bins in the new project. Took me a while to figure out what was going on.
Aja's support is supposedly much better, but I did get answers via email from blackmagic with the avid issue. Took a few days, but they did come thru.

Instead of getting a wireless card for the Mac Pro, you might want to consider getting an 802.11ac wireless bridge device that would enable you to connect more than one device to it by Ethernet cable and to eventually take advantage of the faster 802.11ac wireless standard.

What kind of video camera do I need to be able to import to

I do not know what kind of video camera I need to have to import to iPhoto. My parents have a VHS camcorder. Can I use that one? Do i need to have a digital camcorder?

Hi Katrina,
welcome to thsi forum
to throw in some cents...:
* mini-dv, nothing else
* with the "big" brands (Sony, Canon, ...) you stay save
* go to a shop and make some "hands on experience"... Panasonic for example is VERY small for some hands...
* ask for a firewire-cable, 4/6pin to connect camera with your Mac (no, usb DOESN'T work)
* that camera doesn't need any effects...- you will add this in iMovie..., so a very basic one is good enough
* get a second battery and a tripod ;-))
* follow any other advice given you here in this forum
and, besides, no, vhs camcorder don't work with iM....

Where does it say what kind of video card I have?

I'm using an ibook g4 I bought in early '05 and I want to know what video card I've got installed. Any idea where I should look to find out?
ibook g4

Apple sure doesn't make that kind of information too easy to find. You can look inside your "System Profiler" utility (in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder), but even then it will probably say something weird like "ATY,M08" that really doesn't tell the average person anything.
Your iBook has a 32MB "ATI Mobility Radeon 9200". I usually visit www.apple-history.com to find these kinds of tidbits.

What kind of video card

I need a recommendation for a video card for a Dimension 4700 to work with a new HP 2311x LED Monitor.

Try this ebay search as a starting point for the Blue & White G3 display cards. Check photos carefully -- AGP cards are plentiful but they have a distinctive tab at one end of the connector to pull off the 25 Volts for ADC, and will not fit in the PCI-only Blue & White G3. Also, some of the ATI cards sold as aftermarket cards, especially those with additional Video In/Outs will often only show up in Mac OS X as Black and White.

What video card do i need for final cut pro x?

I can't update because it says my video card isn't good enough. It's the standard card that came with the Mac Pro. Can't find a list of approved video cards.
I don't want to spend a great deal and I hoping that some day, some year before I die, Apple will release a Mac Pro with Thunderbolt, if they ever get back to being a computer company again.

I have MacPro 1,1 (first generation) bought NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT on eBay and it works great. This one

What replacement Airport Extreme Card do I need for Macbook Pro 8.2?

It looks like my Airport Extreme Card has failed, although the Blue Tooth is fine. I'm assuming that I need to buy a replacement but am struggling to find what I need. I have a Macbook Pro 15" early 2011 i7 2.2ghz so just need to know what cards are compatable.
It's been a slow failiure, over a couple of months but now it is not even recognised in the System profiler. I am happy to open the case and install a new card, I just need t know what will work. Is there a better card than the original out there, or even an upgrade? I've upgraded the Ram and had to change the HHD already, so as a machine it's starting to resemble the Philosopher's Axe...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Ralph,
Thanks for the speedy response!
I"ve had the case open when I changed the HHD and Ram, and can seen where the card slots in. It's held by a supporting arm which lifts up when disconected from the Logic Board. it's weird looking inside, as you can see there are many of the same componants I've seen in other laptops. It is a tidier build though. I'm confident that if I detach the 3 antener conectors and remove the retainer screws a new card will fit back in.
The Genius Bars here in London are highly over subscribed, and I don't think I have the time or budget for that.
I'll keep plugging away, and see what happens. I'm almost getting used to being tethered to the Ethernet cable. I've only tripped over it 20 times a day!
Take it easy.

none. The iPod does not have a cellular radio. The iPod touch is wifi only.

What kind of audio interface do I need for audio out from MainStage 3?

I have a Yamaha MO8 that I use for playing in the worship band at my church. In the past, I've just directly routed audio from the MO8 through a direct box and into the sound system.
I'm looking to switch my setup and use the Yamaha MO8 as a midi controller in MainStage 3. I have this part working — the problem is getting the audio from my MacBook Pro.
The audio output sounds fine through the MacBook Pro speakers or through headphones plugged into the audio out / headphone jack; however, if I plug the direct box into the MacBook Pro's audio out / headphone jack, the signal the sound system gets is very pretty weak and very distorted.
I'm assuming I need an audio interface between my MacBook Pro and the direct box / sound system. Since it's a 2010 MacBook Pro, I'm assuming my only output option is USB (unless the digital audio out can be used). If that's correct, would something like the Scarlet 2i2 work for me?
Thanks…

Yes, you'll need some sort of audio interface to get a good signal back to your mixer.
The Scarlet 2i2 would work for you but you may find a few limitations. I use a MOTU Audio Express and it has the advantage of being a mixer as well, so I can mix in a backup signal from the onboard audio outs of my controller (Kurzweil PC3x) in case MainStage goes down (it happens on rare occasion). Firewire is my preference so the MOTU checks that box. I also like that I can connect my MIDI cables to the MOTU and have one cable going into the computer.
If you need this sort of compact redundancy, I would shoot a little higher than the Scarlet. If you don't feel the need for a backup line and USB works for you, then the Scarlet unit would be an excellent value.

What kind of hard drive do I need for my HP Pavilion dx6650us entertainment notebook PC?

I have a HP Pavilion dx6650us entertainment notebook PC that has the BSOD. Even when I run it in SafeMode I have absolutly NO desktop. I've tried EVERYTHING. I have lost hope. So im just going to buy a new hard drive. Does anybody have ANY idea what type of hard drive I need and aprox. how much it might cost? Please let me know(: Thank you.

It is a standard laptop 2.5 inch wide SATA hard drive like shown in this picture:
Look at Page 9 of this Manual:
Drive Manual
This will show how to replace it. Do you have the recovery disks that you could have made when the laptop was new? If not you are going to have to get a Windows disk or some HP recovery disks.
Here is a drive that would work for you.
160 gig 7200 rpm drive for $45
This drive will be faster than what you had and is a bit larger. A very good deal for the price. You perhaps already have a second hard drive in the system. See the manual on page 9 for the location of both hard drive bays. You could move the secondary drive (if there is one) over into the primary position without spending a nickel. In fact, that is a great idea. If you do that and still get the BSOD, then it might well be something else going on other than the hard drive. The hard drive is a likely issue but it could also be the memory and other things, too. However, I think the second drive is only found in the dx9000 models so do not be shocked if you do not have a secondary hard drive bay in your machine. I have never seen a dx6000 series but am pretty sure it is a lot like the dv6000 series of which I have seen more than my share. They have a lot of issues and I am concerned you will be spending money on a new hard drive that will not fix anything.
Feel free to post back with issues or questions.
