Will a MacbookPro/Air LR5 work seamlessly with my Win7PC - transfer LRCATs/files?

I have Windows 7 desktop LR5 at home (lots of grunt, very happy) but I'm planning to buy a laptop for travel LR cataloging and basic edits to my NikonD800 files.  Am thinking of windows laptop or macbook pro (MBP)
Queries for help from forum experts
1. Does a MBP LR installation allow for the LRCATs etc to be copied seamlessly to my Win 7 home machine or will I get caught up in inconsistencies and grief? ie do I need a windows laptop to harmonise LR with my windows LR?
1B Are there be any issues with copying MBP file previews etc to Win7PC? I plan to use USB3 1tb portable HDDs to transfer content between laptop and PC
2A. I'm thinking MBP 15 inch to get the 16gb memory, so that strikes out the macbook air with an 8gb memory max. Correct?
2B. If a MB Air will work with my Nikon D800 raws, are you MB Air opwners happy with the experience?
3. Considering the MBP do I need the Nvidia graphic processor (which puts me into the right $$$ column on Apple website) or can I be happy with 13 inch or 15 inch without nVidia. Do I really need the graphics processor if I plan mostly to do cataloging and minor edits and keep the heavy duty PS stuff for home PC? My videos to date have been fairly minimal
4. If I go the MBP without processor the final query is 13 inch or 15 inch. I like the 13 inch for portability. I've seen someone comment 13 inch is too small to see all 3 segments of LR unless you hide the left pane. Any comments? your thoughts?

I suggest using the Migration Assistant twice:

Testing each time the migration was successful.
Mind you the MacBook Pro will not be able to use any of your Mac OS 9 applications, and is limited to those drivers which are Universal.

    Cannot send email with new iPad air.  Works fine with old iPad and iPhone.  I have deleted account and reinstalled.

    Thanks.  I got the problem fixed.  Spent time with the Apple folks and was kicked up to a senior advisor.  It seems the problem was with my internet provider - Tmie Warner.  Remember I could use the old ipad and the iphone to send mail.  I checked all the specifics between the three units.  It seems that TW is changing over from the RR.com  to TWC.com.  Since the new ipad air was just set up, it fell under the new TWC mail specifics. 

  • Premier Pro working seamlessly with Lightroom

    I am considering purchasing Premier Pro to replace imovie, since I changed from Aperture to Lightroom.
    I have a few questions:
    1. Will Premier Pro work seamlessly, allowing me to import photos from LR5 to Premier Pro?
    2. Is there an allowance to add voice overs?
    3. Can I purchase a DVD or download, rather than enrolling in the creative cloud ?
    Thanks.

    I might be wrong, but I don't think Lightroom is going to give you the seamless integration with Premiere Pro. Adjustments made using Lightroom are stored in the catalog, not in the image file itself. So it would be necessary for you to export copies of adjusted images to a new folder and then import those into your Premiere Pro project. What many people don't understand is that images are not "in" Lightroom. They are simply stored in folders on your hard drive, and then kept track of (including adjustments) with the Lightroom catalog.
    Lightroom can be purchased at many retail outlets, as well as purchased and downloaded directly from Adobe.

  • Will sony s-air sw10ti work with airport extreme?

    Hi There,
    I have the Sony S-Air SW10 Ti which has a great sound but the Aerial on it for DAB Radio is rubbish, it does have a docking station which also sounds good but no other connection parts. Would this perhaps work with " Airport or Aiport Express/Extreme" ?

    Thanks - I am glad that you explained your situation a liitle more - although there is no direct way to connect to the wi-fi of the Sony - the Airport Express (not the Extreme) has an audio out jack that can be connected to any system - this would be an indirect way of using wi-fi with your Sony - see this link - http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/ - you could also incorporate Apple TV into your setup - see this link - http://www.apple.com/appletv/ - but as you can see, both of these choices involve AirPlay and Itunes which may limit your options - and because they are beyond the scope of this discussion group, I would suggest that you re-word your questions and ask them in the appropriate disccusion group in this forum - I hope that this clarifies things somewhat.

  • Will photoshop cs5 student/teacher work ok with my sons laptop?

    My son has the following Laptop.  How well will Adobe Photoshop student/teacher CS5 work on it.
    I have heard different answers and thought it best to ask here.
    Thanks for the help!!
    HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    AMD Phenon N830 Tripple-Core Processor
    2.10 GHz
    4.00 GB
    64- bit operation
    1600 X 900 resolution
    378 GB free space
    AMD M880G with ATI mobility Radeon HD 4250

    That's a healthy system, and will run Photoshop CS5 quite well.
    I especially like the high pixel density (though I hope your son has good eyesight; the UI elements of Photoshop will be pretty small).
    The big positives I see are:
    64 bit operation.
    Large pixel count in the display.
    ATI display adapter.
    Quite good processor power.
    Some things that he might want to consider upgrading down the line:
    Increasing the 4 GB of RAM to 8 GB.
    Adding a second disk drive.

  • Which file do I work from with ready made template zip files?

    I'm determined to figure this out.  I hope you can save me some time.  I'm new to website building and have built websites from scratch.  Now I've been given asked to make a website for my employer using a zip file of a company template.  When I extract it I get 2 folders HTML templates and Templates.  If I click HTML Templates > it opens 3 folders HTML, IMAGES and INCLUDES.  I have been given instructions that the templates provide me with the CSS, HTML and code I need to make standard pages.  The zip file is to contain all thecode plus a number of ready pages complete with content containers already laid out and all I have to do is enter dummy content of my own.  Sounds easy but making my own seems a lot easier!  Where do I start.  Just need a few tips and off I'll go I'm sure.  Hoping you can help me otherwise I'll ask for help internally tomorrow.  Thanks.

    Thank you for responding.  I can edit the .dwt file but can't seem to then add it as a template to any other page I create.  It's probably something so simple...ugh.

    Hi there.
    I was just wondering if anyone knows if mirroring over the air will be available for the iPad 2 to other devices than the AppleTV?
    Devices such as the Boxee Box?
    Air Play works fine with the Boxee Box when viewing photos, videoes or listening to music, but what about mirroring?

    As long as you purchase the GSM model and acquire a Nano-SIM card, you should be able to use your iPad abroad.  Here is some information about this process that you may find helpful.

  • Newbie asks: Will an AIR Application work with CFCs on Standalone PC if ColdFusion is not installed?

    I am a ColdFusion developer who is absolutely new to Flex.
    I would like to create a Flex/AIR application that will run on standalone PCs that are not connected to the Internet. As such, I need to develop a truly standalone application with the entire front and back end installed on the PC.
    I will need to create the services that the SWF files will use to fetch and write data to the database. I would prefer to use my CF skills to write those services in ColdFusion. When I deploy the application as a standalone Windows application, would CF have to be installed on the target PCs, or is the AIR runtime able to use the services (the CFC files) that were created with ColdFusion?
    If the answer is that CF would have to be installed, I would have to create the services in something other than CF. If that's the case, what would you suggest that I use to create the services? I would be looking for something with the smallest possible footprint that will work on truly standalone PCs.

  • I am buying a new macbookpro which comes with Lion.  Lion has Quicktime X.  Logic Studio comes with Quicktime Pro 7.  Do I have to download Quicktime 7, or will Logic Studio work fine with the Quicktime X player?  Will there be a Quicktime Pro X soon?

    your new lion-machine should have quicktime 7, too. if it doesn't, and if it doesn't show up after you migrated your stuff from you old machine you can always reinstall it from the logic dvd's, it's part of logic. my recommendation is to always use quicktime 7, since it's got many features that are absent in quicktime x. quicktime x is nothing but a polished video player. in quicktime 7 (pro, comes with logic) you can even do edits and paste your music onto video files. i use it all the time, especially since logic 64bit doesn't export to video anymore.

    As you quote the price in 'Pounds' I'm assuming you are in the UK!
    You might want to consider one of these from Amazon.  I have one on my MBA and it works well.
