  • What's the best type of RAM for a MacBook?

    I'm considering buying a MacBook (Well, begging my parents to buy me a macbook:P) and would like to know if there's any one type of RAM that runs better than another. Please note that I'll only consider the RAM if it's cheaper than ordering more RAM when I order a MacBook online. If you could post a link to where it's being sold, or a price with it (I'm canadian, but if you have the price in american it would still be helpful).
    Many thanks,
    Kyle L.

    I'd also reccomend the gskill ram from newegg. I bought 2 gigs of it, and the machine is blazing fast. Not a problem with it (besides initially when I hadn't pushed it in far enough, but that was easily fixed by pushing it in all the way). I think it cost $170 or so. You might be able to find somewhere else and save $5, but I've found it's hardly worth it. newegg has great prices, and I've never had a problem with them.
    Good luck with the begging for a macbook, and remember to get applecare These things are too expensive to fix when they break otherwise.

  • What is the best set hard drive set up on an iMac for video editing?

    what is the best set hard drive set up on an iMac for video editing? i only have one internal 2tb hard drive.

    CIANCIO.mov wrote:
    so is it best to edit directly off your LaCie fire wire drive, or off the internal HD and store on the external?
    The second.
    Which one is faster to edit with?
    The internal will operate  faster but editing uses both the Final Cut Application (on the internal), and the external which is used to store and access the video that you have shot and on which is stored the Capture Caches, and which also stores and accesses the various other caches such as Video Render, Waveform etc.
    Does a faster hard drive decrease rendering time?
    I think it must, but I have never timed it.
    whats Faster, having another internal drive or a thunderbolt or firewire 800 external drive?
    I think that a second internal drive would be faster than an external Firewire drive. However, a Thunderbolt drive is said to be very fast, but I do not know whether it would be faster than a conventional internal drive. This question would best be asked of the Final Cut Discussion Groups because thay might have experience.
    i would love some specs, and input on different drive setups for an imac with a single 2TB Hard dirve.
    Again, the discussion groups would be the best place to answer this.
    enyone. thanks,
    Rendering long sections of video in the Final Cut software does take a long time, especially when it is imported from another source, such as a .mov, and when something simple like a transition is inserted or even moved or altered, or a filter is applied, rendering must be carried out in that area to see the effect properly. So you are on the right lines in thinking about how to speed it up.

  • What's the best hard drive I can put in my mac book 6,1?

    What's the best hard drive I can put in my mac book 6,1? Is there a solid state hard drive available? I've been through two hard drives in the last 3 years, which i primarily blaim on how much I have to move my computer around at work while the drive is spinning.

    Yes there is and SSD for your Mac.  I just ordered an SSD for a MacBook 6,1 from OWC.  http://www.macsales.com/
    Also check Crucial and Kingston.
    I ordered the DIY Upgrade Bundle: Mercury Electa 3G SSD.
    That MacBook is only capable of 3 GB/s so the 6G SSDs are overkill.
    I recently upgraded the memory from 2 GB to 8 GB.  It cut the boot time by a factor of three.  That is only a $100 upgrade.

  • What is the best type of xml storage for max performance in 9i r2

    We have many schema based xml's of 1MB in xdb (9.2.0.5)
    and our database is getting slower by every new xml
    delete_resource (300 sec) and create_resource (300 sec ) take a long time
    and if I ftp a schema based xml out the xdb takes a long time ( 200 sec )
    Our system works like this , the xml comes in (ftp) ,the xdb validates the xml and then the xml is archived and the
    last step, the xml data is extracted and put in normal tables
    no xml updates or xml constraints
    I have now defined in the schema, one main table and I use oracle types for complextypes and xdb:defaulttable =""
    in 10g I don't have problems, but our production system
    are 9.2.0.5 and it takes a lot work and downtime to change that
    This goes well in 9i by files smaller then 500k
    what is the best schema configuration for max performance ( create / delete resource and ftp out )
    thanx edwin

    I changed
    maxOccurs="unbounded" xdb:SQLName="TRANSACTIONRANGE" xdb:SQLCollType="TPF_MASTER_D_T_RANGE_COLL_01"
    into
    maxOccurs="unbounded" xdb:SQLName="TRANSACTIONRANGE" xdb:SQLInline="false" xdb:defaultTable="TPF_MASTER_D_T_RANGE_TAB"
    this gives me very good performance
    the total run is now 6 times faster
    and to ftp xml out of the xdb takes now 2 seconds

  • What is the best type of battery for my laptop pavilion G6-2293sa ?

    Product name: HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC
    Product number: C1S92EA#ABU
    Windows 8 64-bit 
    Hi, i`d like to buy a new battery but i want to know what is the best for my laptop.
    I bought this laptop two weeks ago and my battery stopped charging (593553-001, Li-ion 4300mAh, 10.8V)
    Thank you

    Hello kolyu91,
    I understand that your battery is not charging.
    Since you laptop is so new, I wouldn’t spend money on a new battery.
    Your laptop should still be under warranty and HP will replace the battery.
    Here is a link to a number to call HP.
    Let me know how everything goes.

  • What's the best type of anti-virus or spyware to use for cleaning up my MacBook Pro? I recently switched to a mac from pc, so don't know much about my computer yet.

    I recently switched to a macbook pro from a pc, and am curious what type of (if any) virus protection or spyware protection to use for it.  I keep getting a message to Install MacKeeper 2012; but am not sure if it's worth paying for or not.  I'd like some advice on what would be the best protection for my computer.  Also, I recently had the new microsoft office installed; which has been having issues freezing up quite often when I use it.  I don't know if clenaing my mac would help with the Microsoft office stuff, or not (or even if that would be related)...also each time I restart my computer; all windows applications open (word, power point, excel & outlook).   obviously I'm not very tech savvy to begin with so any advice would help!  I'm hoping this computer will last me thru the next 4 years of grad school & just want to make sure this computer is well taken care of to last that long.  Thanks!

  • I virtually always use RAW, so what is the best type of processor to use ?

    At the moment I have a dual core, but converting from RAW to use Photoshop Elements is slow especially when I have hundreds of images.  Would it be better for me to upgrade from a dual core to
    a quad core processor, or should I additionally buy Lightroom instead at this stage ?  I will probably do both eventually, but due to budget restraints, which would be my best first choice please ?  I will not stop using Elements
    for the very best of images, because it is marvellous and I have spent five years learning its intricacies !  Your advice will be very much appreciated !

  • What is the best way to manage multiple devices with one iMac - different users with seperate itunes accounts or one mac user with different itune logons and libraries?

    Hello
    I have just purchased an imac which I am very happy with.  In our household we also have two iphones (one mine and one husbands) and one ipod (my sons). We all have individual itunes accounts set up on our previous computer (not a mac). We have sepereate apps and music, although there may be the odd occasion where we would like to share a song (if this is possible) across devices.
    I am just wondering the best way to manage these devices using the new imac.  Should I create individual accounts to logon to the imac, then from within these launch our own itunes accounts and sync our devices with these.  Or should I be using one version of itunes, logging on to this with our different itunes usernames and storing things in libraries.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks

    I am presuming that we cannot share downloaded apps and music between accounts because of the copyright issue,
    Though I'm no copyright lawyer, as long as it's within a household, you can share content among users. Such sharing is, absent specific language preventing it not present in the iTunes Store terms of use, generally considered to be "personal use". So you can share apps and music amongst your users on your computer and with their devices. You just can't give any of that content to friends or relatives who don't live with you.
    What I am not clear on, it making sure that this appears in each itunes account - is it easy to find the file storage folders that match the itunes accounts and what would these be?
    The iTunes library and files are by default in a user's Home/Music folder. But you don't have to find the folder; in fact putting a file into the folder yourself won't add the file to iTunes. Just drag the file into the iTunes window. iTunes will copy it to the correct location.
    Regards.

  • What is the best way to create a website on a imac g5  (2005)

    After reading a variety of reviews of Life 08 I want to know
    what the best way to create a website. Should I buy ilife 08
    or do something else? There is no iweb on my g5.

    If you are a novice then iweb is a good place to start. It will allow you to create a site quickly with the minimum amount of work. You can then learn more as you go along if you want to. To publish you will need web space somewhere. Thats how I started and now I am studying web design with the Open University and am learning xhtml and CSS, then progressing to Java etc. Good luck and have fun - it is quite addictive once you start.

  • What are the best ways to keep my 4 year old iMac going?

    I want to put off having to buy a new desktop iMac as long as possible so, while I'm using my 4+ years old iMac, what are the things I should (or should NOT) do to look after it?  I know that temperature and humidity must be avoided but here in England (UK) it rarely gets too hot, so what else I should be aware of? Any advice would be much appreciated.

  • What's the best way to move files from my 2012 iMac to my 2014 MBP?

    What’s a good way to move files from my 2012 iMac to my MBP?
    I prefer to do graphic work on my 21-inch iMac (2012 version). But when I travel I need to copy files to my 2014 MBP. I learned that my 2012 iMac is too old for use of AirDrop, so I’m copying and moving files with a flash drive. That seems slow and clumsy. Is there a better way?

    Target Disk Mode would provide a direct connection between the two Macs:
