What one should expect more from the unit

In fact after I had bought my DR8, I browsed the forum to see the most typical failures encountered by the users. I checked all the problem modes on my new DR8 to see it doing with no problem. What I could conclude from what I've read is that the problems' origin lies in the firmware flashing version and process. That made me real curios, why somebody who just have bought the unit would go and flash it? What one should expect more from the unit, except the risk to ruin it as it seems the most of the results are here...
Plse do not confuse me with an MSI marketing agent  
I'm just happy to have fully functional nice drive as it says in the product spec  

What you say is more or less what an update in general is supposed to do.
What makes me real curious is - when a product does what the product spec says, why one should risk and flash/update/whatever... to get more for the money? I don't think so.  
Reading the forum problem posts I conclude the most of the problems are caused by that kind of "innovative" seeking of updates...

  • I just connected my Mac Mini running OS 10.6.8 to a IG 32' monitor. What resolution should I select from the menu?

    I just connected my wife's Mac Mini running OS 10.6.8 to an IG 32' monitor. What resolution should I select from the menu in order to provide maximum screen appearance? My wife has AMD and a visual acuity of 20/400 with central scotonata.

    In System Preferences:Displays you have an option to show
    Displays Prefs in the title bar above the screen - where she can
    iteratively adjust to her liking. Higher screen resolutions, ironically,
    result in smaller characters so adjust to suit. Below, Displays is
    4th from L.

  • I have an old Mac Tower.  I need to move data from the unit to an external hard drive. What kind of hard drive do I purchase.  There is not a lot of data to be transferred.

    I have an old Mac Tower.  I need to move data from the unit to an external hard drive.  What kind of of hard drive must I purchase so that it works with the Tower?  There is not a lot to transfer.

    MG,
    What we might need to do is to change the question.  What computer do you plan to use the data on in the future?  For example, if you have a newer tower, just move the hard drive to the new tower.  If you want to use the data, what about an ethernet LAN to get the data over?  If you want to archive the data, how do you store the second drive?  What are your plans for the first drive?  If the new software will not recognize the old file type, the data must be exported.  Just getting files to another hard drive will not finish your journey.
    As Allan said, knowing the exact model and year of your tower is important.  My suggestion is to find a user group near you.  Please post back with more information, including the name of a large city near you.
    For example, our user group just experimented with a 1983 Apple IIc that predates the Mac.  It started right up, read files from 1984  and saved them from a 5.25" floppy to a 3.5" floppy.  That 3.5 floppy will go into a platinum G3 which will read PRODOS files using Apple File Exchange.  That G3, with a USB card, will allow saving the files to a USB flash drive.  But, somewhere along the way, some software has to read the file and convert it to data that is useable by current software.

  • Is it possible to purchase an Applecare plan from the United States (LLA) for a MacBook Pro from Latin America (LZA)?

    Is it possible to purchase an Applecare plan from the United States (LLA) for a MacBook Pro from Latin America (LZA)?

    That's somewhat of a legal question which may not be able to be answered here by the uers/volunteers - I'd suggest you check with a local apple store.
    In the US, you can purchase it at any authorized reseller as long as you register it with the serial number of the computer within the first 364 days of ownership, but I do not know if a US product will work with one from another country.

    He does not have an actual kindle so I am not sure if he would be able to create one anyways.
    The Kindle app is so you do not have to use a Kindle. Yes, he can have a Kindle account and not own an actual Kindle hardware device.

  • What documentation should be done from security perspective in Blue print

    We're implementing Enterprise Compensation Management in HCM module. Would like to know what documentation should be done from security perspective in Blue print phase

    There is a lot of "interface stuff" which you will need to consider. For example there are typically a lot of horridly complex legacy "systems".
    Often the policies and even legislation is so complex and constantly changing and riddled with exceptions that it is difficult to code it (with customzing extentions to the programs) and manage changes that way.
    This opens a myriad of security considerations during the design phase. They are not all bad, but there are some traps.
    Cheers,

  • TS1398 I brought an ipad original from the United states and it doesnt join the wi-fi network here in bangalore. any ideas or suggestions?

    I brought an ipad original from the United states and it doesn't join the wi-fi network here in bangalore. any ideas or suggestions?

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks  http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    I'm trying to download java on my Mac machine but the software update doesn't show me anything. Please advise what I should do to get the application.

    If you can run it under chrome, you have java installed.
    There was some malware that exploited an older version of Java (not javascript) running in a Browser. Since few people use it Apple turned off Java by default in the Safari Browser.
    If you need it for something, just turn it back on in Safari preferences (inside Safari). After a few months of non-use, you may find it has turned itself off again.

  • Where is the App icon for HD 1080p Video? From the online photos it should be separate from the camera App.

    Where is the App icon for HD 1080p Video? From the online photos it should be separate from the camera App.
    It's supposed to have a blue background with 1080p in white, while inside there is a white camera with the letters HD in blue.
    I cannot find this App icon. Where is it located? It was supposed to be preinstalled.
    Thanks.

    There is no app.
    It is the camera.  Just take video with the camera.
