Which Browser Is Best On Lion?

Which browser do you find works best on Lion? I like the backward/forward affects of Safari.
I've found that Chrome appears to be the fastest and has two-finger swipe.

For some things I use Safari, some others Firefox. I have found there are certain sites/add-ons that are tuned to one browser over another. For most work, Firefox...but for Apple-specific I usually use Safari.
lol. And how accurate that answer is. A smooth running Safari is impossible to beat. Firefox is popular as are Chrome, Opera iCab and Camino, so really what you find the easiest to use. Remember Safari is the default browser in all Mac OSXs for quite a long time now, so as I say, if it is working well and quickly for all your needs it's intergral interaction with the OS is often a pleasure to work with, but like Ralph, I don't want to get into a religious war!

Which browser is best for macbook pro.
I have used Safari for a couple of years but have been told recently that I would be better switching to Chrome

The best browser for you depends on your specific needs; as you can install multiple browsers without them interfering with each other, download Firefox, Chrome, and any others you'd like to try out, and pick the one which works best for you.

Which OS, Version, Best Setup on like-new 2008 MBP for non-HD archival DV?

MacBook Pro 15"
(Early 2008)
2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo
4GB RAM
720GB 7200rpm Hard Drive (original 360GB 5400rpm drive also available)
OS 10.6.8
(6GB RAM possible but additional $100+ for 4GB module needed now for software upgrades)
    I first and last used Final Cut Pro 2-3 in film school on a Titanium PowerBook (500MHz!) during the OS9/X transition. Next, was an Aluminum PowerBook (1.67Ghz) but because of life changes, I did little editing other than occasionally in iMovie. Then as an early adopter of iPhone/Pad, I rarely used my AlPB other than for back up, writing, and occasional simple editing.
    Now I'm finally entering the early MacIntel age with a pristine "early 2008" MacBook Pro bought for $250 from an elderly original-owner couple who used it only at home for email and iPhoto. Though at the end of its supported life, it's practically new with a known history of light graphics usage (no video or gaming rendering ever) delivered in the original box with original battery (only 46 cycles!), discs, manual, like-new charger, and no sign of wear. The original internal wrapper was even saved and put back on the device! Furthermore, because the wife was a photo enthusiast, the Apple Store swapped out her internal hard drive for a Western Digital 720GB 7200rpm drive and the husband just gave me the original 360GB drive!
    I want to do several things with this "new" device. I've done a lot of research but the world has changed since FCP 3 and the G4 processor and I'm overwhelmed with all the possibilities. I need guidance and have always appreciated the wisdom and generosity of the gurus here. I thank you all in advance!
iCloud integration: I'd like it since I'm an iPhone/Pad user. I could upgrade to Mountain Lion but Mavericks, under the best of conditions, is doable on my device and may give me improved CPU and battery performance. I realize this is best left for the OSX forums. HOWEVER...
Final Cut Pro: I want to also return to editing in FCP an unfinished documentary using primarily archival film and video converted to non-HD DV. This may greatly impact how I set up my drives and the decision as to which OS is best. So, this should probably be my initial decision.
Hard Drive: First and foremost, I should probably swap the drives and place the 7200rpm drive into an enclosure (Firewire or is that stone-age?) for FCP media, correct?
OS: With Mavericks, I must use FCPX which is beyond my current non-HD needs and will most likely strain my system resources. However, the new simplified interface is appealing and I've read some users are running it on "early 2008" MBPs. If an earlier OS is better suited, then which one? And also...
FCP Version: Which is most stable given my model? And which is best for non-HD needs? What about FCExpress? I want to explore more possibilities than what's available in iMovie and would appreciate the simpler interface found in FCE and FCPX, especially since I haven't used any Final Cut since FCP 3 but will gladly embrace what's best. I want to relearn the program and hope to continue using it for other projects.
Partitioned drive: Finally, what about partitioning my drive, one for daily life running Mavericks or other OS, the other solely dedicated to an optimized OS/FCP for non-HD editing? Even at 360 GB it should be doable if I keep it lean and the bulk of storage externally (I ran FCP 3 adequately on a partitioned 40GB drive back in the day). How much space should I dedicate to an FCP partition?
    Finances are tight and I'll need to upgrade Office, other apps (I know there's Rosetta in Snow Leopard but must weigh that with iCloud integration; decsions, decisions!) and probably locate an older copy of FCP on EBay or elsewhere which could be expensive. I must wait a bit before swapping in a 4GB RAM module and possibly upgrading to an SSD. Meanwhile, I'd like to experience this like-new MacBook Pro now, both as it was during its heyday and with what's still possible today. It seems doable and I appreciate any and all suggestions.
Thank you all and have a great day!
Evalyn
PS: I realize my FCP3 files are probably useless and plan to reimport everything into a new project. And sorry for the lack of paragraph spacing. Can't get it formatted right on the iPad!

Just to note that there is much more commonality between FCP3 and FCP7 and/or FCE than with the early version and FCP X. IMO, learning FCP X is worth the effort, but it will require some effort since it is so different than traditional NLE's. You could "get by" with FCE for many types of projects and you should be able to find a copy on eBay or Amazon for a few hundred dollars. However, you will not be able to open a FCP project of any version with it. Also, I don;t think I would agree that its UI is simple; it's essentially the same as FCP.
As for partitioning, some people advise against editing from drives that have been partitioned. I use a partition on one machine and I've not had any problems, so I think it is an option.
As you can see from the replies you've received so far, you have reasonable choices. Good luck.

Avast, clamXAV and MacScan - which is the best of these OSX AV scanners?

Avast, clamXAV and MacScan - which is the best of these OSX anti-virus scanners?
Does anyone have experience of all three?

Ermmm. I think you'll not find anyone here that's got experience of one, let alone all three.
My thoughts on anti-virus for the Mac, is that it can be more hassle than it is worth, given the nature of OSX. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I think the OS is invulnerable, but other than the one lone mock video codec trojan that was out a few years ago, there really isn't much of a need for anti-virus.
Yet.
The best web security right now for general browsing is Firefox with NoScript and AdBlock Plus and have it set to delete the cache and cookies after each session.
Beyond that, the commonest things vexing Mac OS right now, are 'social engineered' trojans or virii, that the user installs themselves.
If you stick to legitimate download sites, (c-net, versiontracker) you will be fine.

Which browser to use to run the RWB in PI 7.1

Dear colleagues,
Our PI systems runs on 7.1 version.
With IE 8.0, the Alert Inbox works properly, but the other application (End-to-End Monitoring, Component Monitoring ...) does not work.
With FireForx, the Alert Inbox does not displayed all data, but the other applications works properly.
Which browser do you recommand to use ?
Best regards

Hi,
It is recommended to use IE 6.
For IE8.0 use compatible mode option. (Menu>tools->compatible view)

Which is the best DVD RW?

Hello,
I am planning of buying a dvd rw and I don't know which is the best right now. I am planning of spending about 100 - 150 dollars. I am going to place the Dvd Rw into an ide that supports Ultra DMA mode 1 so I don't actually want the best one, I just want one thats going to get my job done. Can anyone give me any clues about what is the best option for me? Can you please give me any details?
Thanks,
PhanosP

Hi PhanosP
1) ""First I am concerned about the ability of any DVD drive to play all the regions. Is this drive able to play both region 1 and region 2 or it has to be patch.""
As far as I know, all drives manufactured over the last couple of years use region settings.
The free software program DVD Genie may fix this, so you can play DVD's from another region. For this and other progs, please see http://www.doom9.org/ There you may find loyes of info on this topic and anything you mighty want to know about burning DVD's
Please also read other topics in this forum like:
"" RegionfreeDR4-A"" or
"" MSI DR4-A Region locked""
If you want the region setting removed entirely from your drive, indeed you will need a patch (probably a patched firmware update). I myself don't know where you might find this, so you might need to browse the internet. (Maybe also somewhere on the http://www.doom9.org/ site. Or perhaps another forum visitor may know the answer. I myself did not bother searching yet, as I never encountered problems reading DVD's sofar.
Furthermore: Also some (freeware) programs (like DVDdecrypter) used for decrypting DVD's >You need them if you want to rip/ copy copyrightprotected DVD's
2)
""Secondly the reviews are almost 3 moths old. Aren't any newer reviews with some newer drives like the one you are using.
You'll have to browse the internet to find newer reviews. Unfortunately not much reviews are as good as the ones on Tom's site. Because Tom's cover so many products and produce so many articles, they only make reviews of DVD burners from time to time. I did not see a good review of recent drives yet. If you find one, please tell me! I'm also very curious about the review on my MSI DR4-A drive, as it pleases me okay.
Good luck !

Which macbook is best for automobile student?

I am taking automobile engineering course & I need a laptop.. Please give me a right suggestion!
Which macbook is best for automobile student?

Any of the new MacBook Air or MacBook Pro models will do. Check their features at Apple.com > Mac. The Air and Pro models are now very close to each other with the Air a little less expensive and a little lighter (3 vs. 3.5 lbs.). I would purchase 8 GB of RAM no matter which machine you buy.
The question is how much permanent (SSD) storage do you need? 128 GB, 256 GB, more? You need to decide this up front and you cannot increase it once it is delivered so choose carefully. How much storage do you use on a current Mac or PC? How much additional storage do you plan to use?
If you undersize the SSD storage all is not lost. You can offload seldom-used data onto an external hard drive. However it is easier to manage the storage if it all fits on your system drive.
Also check out refurbished Macs at http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals. These come with the standard Apple one year warranty.

At the moment I'm using Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and if I navigate to ABAP Syslog Errors (Exception Analysis) I get following message: " Web application processing terminated". But if I use Mozilla Firefox, this doesn't happen.
Any idea?

I am currently running my mac booc pro with the osx 10.5.8 and i want to update it. Which is the best way?

Snow Leopard Purchase
Computer Compatibility - Lion
Mountain Lion/Mavericks
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space

Repartition and format the drive for a Mac:
Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.

Which is the best software to convert dvd to IPad 2d

Which is the best software to convert dvd to IPad 2d

unfortunately discussing the breaking of the encryption that comes with commercial dvd's is prohibited in these forums. however a quick google search will get you to quite a few software providers....
on a personal note, i don't agree with the fact that we can't "legally" transfer dvd's because breaking the encryption is considered illegal, even though the "fair use act" has said that copying dvd's for personal use or for backup purposed is considered legal. it's just the software to do that isn't. i'm not one who would rip a dvd then make multiple copies to make a financial gain. i just want to be able to convert my "old" media into a format that meets my current needs.
good luck my friend on your search. i really wish i could help you more

Hi i upgrade from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am getting no sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever

Hi i upgraded from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am no longer getting sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever.Any one any ideas?
I use a samsung TV for my monitor via HDMI.Tried all the system Audi setting nothing .Head phone and internal speakers are fine.

Similar issue; Audio was working fine on Lion, now not on Mountain Lion. Have a Macbook Pro early 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, connected by thunderbolt through a Lacie LBD to a mini-displayport to HDMI adapter (n.b. same problem when not going through the LBD) to a Pioneer VSX 521 AV receiver. For me when I go into audio Midi settings all the volume sliders for the displayport device are greyed out and at zero. But when I click 'configure speakers', it's able to send out the test signals to each speaker. Part of the problem could be that I'm not getting the option to put out 6channel sound, only 2 or 8 channel. Since my system is Dolby 5.1, and I only have 6 speakers, I would have expected the 6ch option to be available. But I imagine there's more to it than that. Elsewhere someone has suggested playing with Remote Interactive over HD on an Onkyo device; I'll see if there's something similar on the Pioneer that can be changed. Any other suggestions welcome.

How can I determine which browser is used(Microsoft IE or Netscape)

As you probely know: Netscape doesn't support the same functionality as IE.
To gain the maxium functionality from IE without solving problems in Netscape, the customer has decided to work with two different stylesheets(one for IE and one for Netscape).
Now my question is, how can I determine in Portal in which browser(IE or Netscape) it is running.
Thanks

Therefor we are using two differen

The browser ID string is a HTTP request parameter. How you get to it depends entirely on what you're programming in. You want to get the value of the User-Agent parameter (for example, in CGI, this is HTTP_USER_AGENT).
However, I'd advise against doing things this way unless you really understand how HTTP works on many levels. One common problem people run into on sending different content based on the browser is that proxy servers will happily cache everything and send content intended for one browser to another.
I have not seen any IE functionality that Netscape does not also have that is worth this hassle, but that's just my very stubborn opinion. :-)
