Where to go from Here - FCP Studio and Compressor ?

I cannot get compressor to work anymore since upgrading to Leopard. I am running the following:
Leopard 10.5.1
FCP Studio 1
Powerbook G4 1.67 (Leopard 10.5.1)
G5 Dual 2.0 (Tiger last version)
QT 7.3.1
It used to work on my Powerbook but after the upgrade no dice. I have tried the troubleshooting basics, unable to connect to background process, searched every thread with no luck. Apple told me to wipe the OS clean and reinstall FCP with all automatic updates. I also have a G5 dual 2.0 running Tiger (last version). Compressor never did work from the beginning on my G5.
My question is which direction should i be heading as far as which OS to use with these older machines and which FCP software should i be using with the OS recommendation ?
I just want a suite that works. I want to make both machines run the same OS. Where do i go feom here ? Ideas ?

Both Compressor and DVD Studio Pro stopped working for me when I upgraded to 10.5.1. I thought an upgrade to Final Cut Studio 2 would do the trick but this did not work either.
Not much help but spending the money on the upgrade will not solve the problem.

New Server Installation, now client computers can't connect to services. Where to go from here?

Hello.
I recently had to setup a new Mac Mini Server (Mavericks). We had one previously but one of the raided hard drives failed. No backup.
Our office of 6 Apple MacBook Pros used to connect to all file sharing and calendar services, easily.
On the new Server installation, I added the same users with the same passwords etc. The client computers cannot access calendars, file sharing etc. On the clients, I have opened up System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Options > Network Account Server and added the FQDN of the server, but I get an error ' Unable to add server. Connection failed to the directory server. (2100) '
2 of the clients are on Mountain Lion. The rest are on the latest Mavericks.
I'm a bit lost on where to go from here and would appreciate your help before I wipe everything and start from scratch.
Thanks.

Hi Strontium90
Ha! There was a time machine backup, but we had a storm here which rendered it and the server useless. We are such a small team without an 'IT' guy, apart form me as I have a vague interest in all things Apple.
What is your DNS name space?
Do you need the name here?
Do the servers and the client agree on this name?
Not sure what you mean. The domain name works as when I type it into a web browser, I can see the 'Welcome to Server' page.
Did you enable an Open Directory Master?
Yes. Open Directory is running.
Did you grant the users/group access to the service you are offering?
Yes. All services are checked for each user.
Make sure the user/group is permitted to access your enabled services.
All allowed, too.
Oh, and implement a backup strategy
Will do, once I sort out this problem. Time Machine and off-site, I think.

Hp pavillion a000 recovery disk error.. where to go from here?

HI.. .fIRST Thank you so much for being here today...
I have an HP pavillion a000 which was bought used.
About a week ago I got pre-windows msgs. on the 3rd time it has frozen at this point
Msg as follows...
bla bla.. but windows did not start successfully..
a recent hardwared or software change may have caused this..
It has counted down and started in normal mode..
then it has frozen.. and I have tried to start it it all modes..
This last attempt actually started windows and went back to this screen
I put in the compaq recovery disk... I get red screen saying recovery disk error..
PLEASE Contact support
I have un plugged..re plugged and we go in circles...
I'm not sure where to go from here but any suggestions would be VERY appreciated as I do have some artwork I was doing stuck in computer now..
Do you think it's a software,, hardware or even a virus thing??
Additional info... Hp pavillion a000 system no.174A-ABA. hw bom 8121110 sw bom NA 40
serial no. mxk34916m
operating system.. Windows xp... yes I tried recovery disks I have.. puter says...non compatible..
I use firefox as browser via century link dsl..
I can pull the hard drive and I have a harness for accessing the hard drive directly via usb download if you think that's an option but not letting me into windows even has me doubtful that would work;;;
So as I mentioned.. ANY sugestions you can offer as what to try next would be MOST welcome!
I can replace the computer easy enough but I would love to be ables to rescue my art in progress at least!

Hello ValeryWildflowr,
If the computer was working fine before you might just want to try a system restore. This should correct the problem without affecting any of your files.
Here is a link for a system restore.
Let me know if this helps.

Somehow a new contact became associated with my email. Now all my email has her name on it. This happens only on my iMac, not on my other Apple devices. I have removed my email from her contact card and deleted her from previous recipients on Mail.

Check the settings in the Accounts for Mail.

If that is the incorrect name you're describing change it to your correct name.

There's Toast.

$79.99
Final Cut Pro X will also burn DVDs.
$299.99
How large is your movie? Is it possible that you could output it as a QuickTime file and then burn that as a data DVD? Is uploading to YouTube an option?

Do you have any filters applied to your clips?
This happened to me before, I accidently had applied a broadcast safe filter to a color matte that was black....
I figured it out by duplicating my sequence and deleting items from my timeline 1 by 1 until I was able to export a reference movie.
Anywho, export again, this time with "self contained" movie selected.
Then try to import to Compressor.

I have a 24" iMac that's about 4 years old. I've done all the software updates as they come along but I'm having issues and wonder if I should update/upgrade the whole operating system. I currently have 10.5.8 and I'm wondering where to go from here.

My mac won't open PDFs anymore from email or websites and I've tried everything to my knowledge to correct this. There's website I that I want to utilize that requires the lastest verision of JAVA and my OS 10.5.8 is too old to do a download of the latest JAVA. So I'm thinking I need to upgrade the OS to something newer?? I'm thinking my hard drive needs to be cleaned up also (re-format?)
This computer is running slower and slower lately also.
HELP!

My mac won't open PDFs anymore from email or websites
That's odd. My Mac is 10 years old and runs OSX 10.4 and I can open pretty much any web site I want to, and I have yet to encounter a PDF I cannot open (more advanced ones with Adobe Reader). My computer isn't slowing down but everything else is speeding up.

Re-install Final Cut Studio 1 Probs with old fcp files and compressor

We crashed our G5 and reinstalled OSX 10.4.8 (Build 8N1430) and FC Studio 1 from original media. In the past (not now) the G5 was connected to the internet and was set to auto-update. I'm assuming and have been told by those working with the system at the time that both FCP and OSX were regularly updated online. We recently re-installed the OS and FCS 1. We have not re-connected the box to the internet; have not updated OS or App software from the versions on installs disks, have not re-registered any software online with apple.
When re-installing the OS, I archived the old system.
My problems are:
1) I can't open old fcp files (projects). These fcp files are projects saved both to an external 500G LaCie and saved on the macintosh hard drive. I cannot open old fcp files archived in the previous system folder on the HD. I get the message "General Error 41" when trying to open these files. I also cannot open old (pre-re-install) quicktime files made with old FCP assets.
I can open new projects and files saved since re-install.
2) (probably related) Compressor will not open and gives me the message "Compressor quit unexpectedly..." I tried a second re-install of DVD studio pro Compressor package. I have a dump of the console crash log for Compressor below.
The G5 in question is currently Not connected to the internet and keeps trying to get online. We have Not re-registered with Apple via the internet either the OS or FC Studio 1 or any of the re-installed software. When I open FCP is asks to reg. Logs show the system trying to get an ethernet connection all the time.
Should I put the box online and register and update? Do I have to do this?
Are the pre-re-installed fcp projects "too-new" for the re-installed (older) FCP to read/open?
In general, I don't want editing bays to be online for these kind of reasons. Is this impossible anymore?
Is it know that Compressor and other elements of OSX and FC Studio can get into versioning issues with online updates such that re-install with cause incompatibility?
Thanks,

1) Use Software Update to update FCP to the highest version and you should be fine. Error 41 is saying the the project was created by a newer version of Final Cut than is installed.

FCP Studio and Logic Pro on same rig?

Can Logic and FCP be used on the same system? I originally bought my rig to use both programs, but I have had HUGE issues with my rig crashing since I bought it. Logic (w/ Video Track) crashed when using 3rd party plug-ins or when just using internal sounds. Tried all sorts of fixes, and had my pro tech-xpert investigate these issues a few times over 3 months. Right now, I have to totally shut down every 20-30 mins. to insure smooth operation of Logic w/o plug-ins, or very minor plug-in use (less than 3 tracks) w/ or w/o Video Track.
I've heard that Logic 7.2 can only use up to 2 GB RAM, and previous to the .2 rev Logic couldn't access my Quad processors. Is this true? The latest solution to these issues is to remove 4GB RAM and just use my rig for Logic. Is this the only solution anyone knows of? (my tech-xpert says my issues all seem to be memory-related)
I hadn't tried to start FCP Studio on my rig at all. In fact, my tech-xpert uninstalled FCP Studio during a 48-hr repair/test. I did have issues w/ DVD Studio Pro crashing my rig when I tried to burn a DVD.
Any and all help/suggestions appreciated in advance.

Do you have the newest driver for the mobile pre?
I sometimes use a Fast Track Pro and it works on 10.8 But sometimes have problems right after selecting it as input.
I like M-Audio gear but if you are having trouble with two of there interfaces now, maybe you should look into another brand.

Hey Sharon,
ive been trying to reset one of our employees' acccounts since last thursday,
after several failed attempts. My case was escalated.
I've since been told (today) directly by itunes/account/apple id - support, that they can't reset our password,
due to a system update.

Restore...
Connect via cable to the computer that you intend to use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.
