Why doesn't Apple come out with a karaoke software for mac?

I bought a Mac Intel based specifically as I was told Intel was more compatible with software I wanted. I am looking for karaoke software that will let me add lyrics and sync them to the audio portion of the file which is called a karaoke disc CD plus G to mean graphics but which is really just text rolled by the screen in time to the music. not necessarily a graphic.
this disc is then taken to someone's karaoke machine and performed. Everywhere I go there is free software to do this, but only for a PC, tons of software free that I can't touch, unless I turn this mac into a windows vista or other. that is also costly.
I have a software called TunePrompter, and another called Audacity. installed on my snow leopard is Idvd creator software. I am currently experimenting with it. I also have Express burn but it's $40 to get it registered and since my trial period expired before I opened it, I don't know if it will burn a CDG disc. or CDG file.
does anybody know if Express burn has the right drive for a CDG? I cannot seem to find on my puter specs information, but I'll bet it has the HL-DT-ST mac drives which I heard would allow me to burn a CDG easily.
I don't know if garage band would do any of this. It certainly wouldn't sync lyrics to music would it? My Tune Prompter allows me to add lyrics, find them on the net, and add them and sync them. then it saves them to either Quicktime or movies.
I've done some experimenting with DVD but haven't taken the finished discs to play on a universal karaoke player yet, but heard that these machines can play a karaoke DVD also. it's not prob getting music burned, it's a big prob for mac users to burn the lyrics with the sub channel of the disc.
Was hoping Apple could produce something like Kjams for us. as it is now I'd have to buy Kjams, along with Kjams producer, along with the burner plug; all this for 150. PC users are making karaoke with their free software. whaaaaa!!! ok Mac, that's my 2 cent desire.

Hi. kJams is great. Works just like iTunes. It's not expensive for the amount of work it's taken to produce and I can tell you as someone who has used it professionally it's head and shoulders above anything else out there.
try running Karaoke on a Windows PC and after it's crashed a few times and your singers are getting rially p@ss@d at you you will once again see the benefits of why you are using a Mac.
iTunes so called karaoke discs are not true karaoke because iTunes cannot sell the discs that are cd-g format and it's specifically cd-g that karaoke video requires to show the words.
iKaraoke Tune Prompter lets you create your own Karaoke cd-g tracks and is as equal to anything I've seen on a PC and it's free software too. So get creating.

I am using a PC with Windows Vista. I've been using iTunes on this computer for over 6 years. Suddenly I can not play any music on iTunes. I tried deleting and reinstalling iTunes however it did not fix the issue. Can anyone please help?

Suddenly, as of two weeks ago, iTunes will no longer play any music. I tried reinstalling but this did not work either. I have a PC with Windows Vista. Has anyone else experienced this problem and fixed it?

Yes, I just tried playing a 10-second mp3 file I acquired from The Oatmeal and didn't once pass my external hard disk. It's a simple, monotone, high-frequency sound, but I get the same results: VLC's UI is still responsive, but its functionality freezes up, i.e. the buttons are still animated, and the menu still works, but there's no sound, the progress bar doesn't move, and the file doesn't play.

Why is my ipod nano 5g always stuck on the apple logo when i turn it on.I have put it n disk mode and repaired it with microst essentials and it says all was fixed but when i restart it it still is stuck on it.Also itunes doesnt reconize it

so when i turn of my ipod its always stuck on the apple logo.Ive tried disk mode and it still doesnt work.Also it isnt reconized on itunes so i need help badly

Did you try rebooting the iPad? You will need to have some battery power for this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Why doesn't my MB Air connect automatically to my TC right when it turns on?

Why doesn't my MB Air connect automatically to my TC right when it turns on? I have my iPhoto Library stored there and I use a picture as a background but when the computer starts, the volume doesn appear to exist so therefore iPhoto doesn't find the library and doesnt show the background.
(I'm sorry for my English, but it's not my native laguage).

Don't apologize for your English, I am quite certain I would be far worse in your native language, whatever it is. The drive does not connect because access privileges are connected to the user that is logging on and OS X doesn't have that information until your account has fully logged on.

In Firefox 3.6 and later on Windows you can hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu on a toolbar.

Why does my iphone come up with a different email when updating apps?

why does my iphone come up with a different email when updating apps?
Everytime I go to update my apps some other persons email or AppleID comes up and I have to cancel. its annoying enough to have to update all the time but now I have about100 update notifications (don't judge, you probably have a ton of apps too..haha) that are sitting idol, what's up how do I fix?
thx
Jackie
p.s. not updating to iOS6 yet

I'm sorry Allan, I should have clarified, your answer is improbable (well the first part atleast).
The apps I have had since the first week of purchase of my iphone back in 2011, I have not added any apps until 2 months before the last software update. This starting happening when the new software was implemented but I have not updated to iOS6 yet. Unless this person was able to hack into my account & transfer them to their account, I do not see how that is possible.
Prior to seeing this other AppleID, I have a popup to prompt me for my AppleID each time I download content. Each time I would see mine and enter my password.

Why won't my printer print with Windows 8?

Why won’t my printer print with Windows 8?
Have you just upgraded, or purchased a new computer with Windows 8, and now you can’t get your printer to work? If so, this may help you. A lot of people have questions about installing their printer on a new OS. This will help you answer those questions and make sure that you get everything installed.
Before You Start
Before you try to install the printer on a Windows 8 computer, you should check to make sure the printer is compatible with the new OS. The link below will give you a list of the printers that will work in Windows 8.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03168175&lc=en&cc=us&destPage=document&dlc=en
If you have upgraded your computer to Windows 8 form another version of Windows, make sure to completely uninstall all of the software for your printer. It should still print, but to use all the functions you will need to reinstall the software, if it’s available.
Another thing to consider is how you want to connect the printer to the computer.
USB. You should make sure that you have a USB cable that is no longer than 6 ft. (roughly 2m). Make sure to connect the printer directly to the computer. Do not use a USB hub.
Ethernet cable. Make sure you have the network setup, that you have a free cable port on the router, and that you have an Ethernet cable available.
Wireless. You should make sure that you have the wireless network setup, and that you have the password for the wireless network.
1.     Installing Via USB
Installing via USB in Windows 8 has become much simpler for HP printer users. In other versions of the Windows OS you had to start the installation and wait for it to ask you for the USB connection. If you didn’t, you would have to uninstall the printer from the Printers/Devices folder, and then start the install. In Windows 8, that will not be a problem. If you plug the printer’s USB cable in and then install the printer’s software, it will still work. Now for in depth instructions on installing the printer via USB click the link below.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03460670&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
2.     Installing Via an Ethernet Network Connection
For an Ethernet network connected printer the install is amazingly simple. All you have to do is connect the printer to the network. Once you have that done, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you. Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if it’s available. It’s really that easy.

3.     Installing Via a Wireless Network Connection.
For a wireless network connected printer the install is amazingly simple as well. All you have to do is connect the printer to the network. Once you have that done, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you. Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if it’s available. It’s pretty much the same as an Ethernet install, just wireless.
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
Alternate Install Methods
With Windows 8, many printers’ drivers are installed with the OS. These are known as InOS drivers, since they come built into the operating system. If you have one of those printers, all you should have to do is connect it to the computer via USB, or connect it to the network via Ethernet or wireless. Once you have that done Windows will handle the rest. There are alternate methods of installing your printer if the normal methods are not working for some reason. You can install the printer either using the Printer Install Wizard, or through Windows Updates.
Printer Install Wizard:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02681060&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
Windows Update:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03460648&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
Note: The Laserjet drivers for the Asia-Pacific and Japan won’t be released until a later date. Check the support site linked below for driver availability. I will update this post once they become available.

Why doesnt the Iphone come standard with a missed text, email or call alert

Why doesnot the Ipone come standard with a missed text, email or call alert, after all it is suppose to be a smart phone

The only visual aid the iPhone has for missed calls, text, email, etc. is the Notification center. After opening notification center, you chose each of the desired areas, i.e. phone calls, mail, etc. and select your notification. This can be badges, etc. If you miss a call, it will display a notice on the screen for a period of time and the screen will then go dark again. If you wake up the phone and you have missed calls or texts, they should show up on the screen, depending on your settings. The iPhone does not, and never has had a flashing light as some other phones have.
Check the manual for setting the Notification Center. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf

Does the iPod Mini Work with Windows?

I am thinking of buying an iPod mini but I don't have an Apple computer. Does the iPod mini work with Windows efficiently? Thanks....

Hello Ian,
Can you be really specific about the necessary Windows XP updates needed? I run XP Pro on a rather new computer and just got an IPOD mini. I'm ready to tear my hair out because iTunes seems to crash my computer every time I change one CD for another. iTunes runs REALLY, REALLY slow for me. Also read on the board that iTunes 6.0 and the mini don't work well together. True or not true?
Thanks - Genevieve
