What part is this that is on order?

I had to send my MBP back in for the return of the whine. It was sent in before, and the MLB was replaced, and the whine went away. It came back though. So I had to send it back.
Anyways, I called to get a status report because it says "On hold-Part on Order," and I asked them what part was on order. She told me it was something like "pcd128ram" or "pcd128vram." What part is this exactly? I would say it is the video card or something, but I am unsure. Please help. Thank you.

well depending on what was actually said, I think it's safe to say that it's RAM that is on order.. either VRAM (video RAM for the video card) or just RAM chips for the machine itself. more likely it's just RAM, I think the video cards already have their own VRAM as part of the card itself as shipped, but that's just a guess.

  • In what part of this workflow will Mac Pro actully save us a lot of time?

    Although the nMP is really tempting, I'm starting to get second thoughts in terms of how much time it will actually save us......
    In our studio, we do a daily, 30 min. 3 camera technews show in 1080p for YouTube.
    Until now, we've been using a 2010 MacPro 8 core 2.4ghz and a MacBook Pro i7 2013.
    In our workflow, we record the show in less than an hour. Importing/transcoding is roughly 30 minutes. Multicam editing takes 2-3 hours in Final Cut Pro X. Exporting / encoding takes around 30 minutes. Upload it yet again around 30 minutes.
    While waiting for the 6 core nMP D500 we ordered in January, the numbers I see, are starting to worry me.
    It seems that the real difference in day-to-day work on the nMP is considerably less that we expected. It's hard to put numbers on expectations, but we were assuming that the nMP with dual GPU would be more than twice as fast as our existing exporting on the old MP and MbP.
    The numbers we see in speed tests seems to be all like a few seconds faster here and there likewww.barefeats.com/tube05.html shows us. For us, it doesn't mean much if an export takes 2-4 minutes more or less - it takes longer to go for the toilet or a cup of coffee anyway.
    To me it seems that the parts of our workflow, where we can shave of time, is transcoding and encoding. The editing takes the time it takes anyway.
    So I'm getting a bit nervous that the investment is not worth it compared to the machines we already have.
    I'd really like to hear from you guys that actually tried the nMP - is it all about 14 seconds faster here end 57 seconds faster there or am I missing / misinterpreting the numbers in stuff like Barefeat.com ?
    Note: it almost seems to me that faster storage (like a Pegasus) for our existing tools, would give us the same speed boost as the nMP in itself???
    Note 2: it almost seems that putting a 7970 gpu (or two) in our MacPro tower instead of the Quadro 4000 we use now, will give the same speedbump as the nMP in itself???

    I have the new Mac Pro black cylinder (fully maxxed out) wiht a Pegasus2 R6 array atached ot it via the thunderbolt 2 port.  I also have an early 2008 Mac Pro 8-core machine that until recently I used for video editing in both FCP X and Adobe Premeire Pro CC as well as a high end mid-2012 Macbook Pro with Retina Display..  On the 2008 Mac Pro I used a two disk array in raid 0 for high speed access to video files.  My 2008 Mac Pro was outfitted a couple of years ago with an nVidia GTX285 graphics card and the old system is in good shape and is still being used for some tasks. On the 2012 Macbook Pro with Retina Display I have a six TB raid 0 array. 
    My experience with the new Mac Pro has been that for any software that makes good use of multiple cores and the powerful Open CL architecture of the AMD W700 graphics cards in the new Mac Pro, this machine is much much faster than my older Mac Pro  A thorough review of the New Mac Pro with many benchmarks in the latest issue of Mac World bears this out with specific numbers comparing the new Mac Pro to the latest Macbook Pro with Retina Display and the latest high end iMac.  In every case the new Mac Pro was significantly faster than those machines for multiple core or graphics intensive tasks.  I have no regrets about purchasing the new Mac Pro and in fact, I love it!
    However, the new Mac Pro is designed to excel at specific tasks, e.g., 4K video editing, 3D modeling and animation, editing very large photo files, and motion graphics such as Motion 5.  To fully realize the speed of the new Mac Pro it must be paired with a suitable high speed raid array.  If you do those kinds of activities and if you have the resources to purchase a high speed disk array like the Pegasus2, then you will see that the new Mac Pro is in a league of its own.

  • When I try to order a new bottom case for my macbook is sais that your macbook is not part of this program.

    When I go on to google I type in replace bottom of macbook case it takes me to apple support I select 'feel free to order yourself' so I click that I select my country and enter my serial number and it comes up with 'The Apple product serial number you entered is not part of this program' What do I do?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you see that your Mac isn't part of the program, that's because your MacBook isn't affected by that problem so, if the bottom case isn't damaged, you don't have to worry.
    If it's affected, take the computer to an Apple Store or reseller to get the bottom case replaced. In this case, unless your Mac is in warranty, you will have to pay

  • I have an iPhone 4S that is a replacement of a defective 4s and it shows over 3Gb of data backed up in the cloud from my old 4s. How can I find out what is in this backup? It is preventing me from backing up my new 4s to the cloud due to the amt of data.

    I have an iPhone 4S that is a replacement of a defective 4s. When I activated the newer phone, I believe I transferred over everything except pictures (had multiple failures trying to backup and restore). Now the phone shows over 3Gb of data backed up in the cloud from my old 4s. How can I find out what is in this backup? It is preventing me from backing up my new 4s to the cloud due to the amt of data. It may be duplicated info that I don't need or I may want to archive the backup or parts of it like pictures.

    You can not access the backup directly.
    Did you restore your replacement from this backup?
    If so then you already have everything in the backup on your device.
    If not, you can wipe the device and restore from this backup:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
    What is it you are worried about losing that isn't already on your current device?

  • I have a MacBook 13-inch, Late 2009, I'd like to get a cable to connect a monitor.  However I keep order the wrong part.  Can somebody tell me what part I need.

    I have a MacBook 13-inch, Late 2009, I'd like to get a cable to connect a monitor.  However I keep order the wrong part.  Can somebody tell me what part I need.

    The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 model 6,1 and Mid 2010 model 7,1 White Unibody have a Mini DisplayPort.
    The Early 2006 model 1,1 through Early 2008 model 4,1s plus the Early and Mid 2009 model 5,2s have Mini-DVI ports. Each would take a different adapter to connect with the TV.
    To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.

  • Wanna know what kind of effect that used on this video?

    wanna know what kind of effect that used in transformation in this video or can we  just crop the effect .

    That transformation is a result of careful planning, 3-D modeling, and layering. It is not just an effect. 3-D tracking, camera tracking, match moving, rotoscope, keying, and other effects can be used to create this kind of transformation. Without careful preproduction planning this kind of a shot/effect is nearly impossible.
    If you already knew that then what part of the transformation is giving you troubl?

  • 1293 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that are not a part of this photo library.

    In preparation for merging two iPhoto libraries with Aperture, I ran "repair database" as suggested above by léonie in this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4998390?tstart=0
    After chugging for a while, iPhoto puts up a modal dialog box saying:
    1293 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that are not a part of this photo library.
    Would you like to import them?
    What does this mean?
    - nello

    I re-ran the the repair on a backup of my library and chose "yes" on the import of of the found pictures.
    Unfortunately, the saved pictures included both original and edited images and the import did not re-assemble them into just a single entry.
    For example, I have a two pictures of a portico ceiling, the original (with an ID of P1010071_2) and another (P1010071) which is the same except that iPhoto's "Enhance" Quick Fix has been applied.
    Is there any way rejoin the original  (P1010071_2) and fixed images(P1010071) into a single entry?

  • My Time Capsule is giving me a warning that  double NAT situation is occurring and recommends that I set it to bridge mode What is all this about please can it be explained in layman's terms and not martian thank you.

    My Time Capsule is giving me a warning that  double NAT situation is occurring and recommends that I set it to bridge mode What is all this about please can it be explained in layman's terms and not martian thank you.

    You have two devices....the Netgear and Time Capsule both configured to act as routers on the network. You only want one device providing this service.
    I suggest that you configure the Time Capsule in Bridge Mode as suggested to eliminate the Double NAT error. Unfortunately, the Guest Network cannot be enabled in this setting.
    No other adjustments are needed and everything else will operate normally...and the Time Capsule will still be providing your wireless network signal.
    Once the Time Capsule is configured in Bridge Mode, it would be an excellent idea to perform a complete power cycle on the network to allow things to reset properly.
    Just power off all devices on the network in any order that you want
    Wait a minute
    Start the Netgear device first, and let it run a minute by itself
    Start the Time Capsule next the same way
    Continue starting devices one at a time the same way until everything is powered backup
    The other option you have is to "ignore" the error and the light will turn green. The Double NAT error may...or may not cause some issues for you down the line. The next time that you update the Mac operating system, or update the firmware in the Time Capsule, it may likely change the Time Capsule to Bridge Mode automatically.
    If your Guest Network "disappears", you will know why this happened, and you will have to manually configure the Time Capsule again in Router Mode to provide DHCP and NAT services.
    Double NAT can also cause a slow down of web page loading. You may...or may not....notice this.

  • All my photos are importing out of order. For example, if I have images 1,2,3, and 4.., the order they show up in is 2,1,4,3. What could cause this and any ideas how I fix it?

    All my photos are importing out of order. For example, if I have images 1,2,3, and 4.., the order they show up in is 2,1,4,3. What could cause this and any ideas how I fix it?

    One thing, don;t think of them as being imported in any one particular order.
    The order of the images is completely fluid, you can change it anytime you want to suit your needs at that particular moment.
    As Léonie showed you select the order you want to see the images in by selecting the item you want to sort on in the pull-down.
    The only time fluid sort order can be a problem is when you export groups of images. If you put the images into a particular order in Aperture when you export them and view them in the Finder the order they are in may very well be different. In this case you could give names to the images that include a sequence number or index.
    Then when they are viewd in the Finder they will be in them same order they were in in Aperture.

  • I've just found that three movies I've bought from iTunes on on my iPad are not showing up on Apple TV or anywhere other than that iPad.  What's up with that and will I lose these films if I reset this iPad?

    I've just found that three movies I've bought from iTunes on on my iPad are not showing up on Apple TV or anywhere other than that iPad.  What's up with that and will I lose these films if I reset this iPad?

    Thanks.  The reason this has become an issue is that I recently bought a new Macbook Air that the iPad is not synced to.  The one is was synced to was stolen.  If I want to sync this iPad to the new Air, won't it be wiped before I'm able to copy these films or am I wrong about that?
