Will GarageBand 4 ('08) projects open in the lastest version?

I'm currently running Mac OS X 10.5.8, and just bought a new Snow Leopard disc with plans to upgrade fully to Mavericks.
I've backed up the whole system with Time Machine on an external drive. I have a bunch of Garageband projects made in version 4.1.2.
Will the newest version of GarageBand open these old projects? Or alternatively, will I still be able to run GB 4, even with the newest GB installed?
I'm looking forward to upgrading to the latest OS X after so many years, but it is imperative that I retain access to my old projects!
Thank you in advance!

Any way to have two DVD SP projects open at the same time?

Hi
Since it is likely that I'm going to re-build all the menues in my PAL DVD in a new NTSC project, I'd like to know if there is any way for me to have two separate DVD Studio Pro projects open at the same time. That way I can easily check and copy location coordinates for the buttons, copy text, etc, etc.
When I open my new project when the old still open, DVD SP just closes the old and opens the new project.
If it was possible, it would make everything much easier for me, since I have 15 menues to re-create
Thanks!

If you just require a visual reference, you can take screen grabs of your first project and open them in Preview...
Open your project, and press Shiftcommand(apple)4 and the pointer turns into a little cross-hair.... you then click-hold & drag a marquee around the section of the screen you need as reference, then when you release the mouse button a screen grab is taken of that portion you selected.
It will be saved to your desktop as 'Picture 1'
you can repeat this for different sections of the project (picture 2, picture 3 etc), and open them in preview.
Not an ideal solution, but might be of help.

My keynote has frozen and wont open but the saved version wont open either. if i restart my laptop i am afraid that it will erase my work. please help me

Try this repair for Keynote 6.2, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1
delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
2
empty the trash: Finder > Empty Trash
3
Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
4
when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click repair disc permissions
5
when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
6
install Keynote from the Mac App Store
let us know if this helped

Pages app unexpectedly quit whilst I was in the middle of a document. I can now not open it AT ALL. I find it's not just that particular document that won't open, but any of my Pages docs will not open using the current version of Pages. Any help?

Pages app unexpectedly quit whilst I was in the middle of a document. I can now not open it AT ALL. I find it's not just that particular document that won't open, but any of my Pages docs will not open using the current version of Pages. The reports of the app unexpectedly closing each time, automatically went to Apple, but I am not sure what happens with them then. Does anyone know how to help me with this? We live in a very isolated region so rely on internet help. Thanks

I also managed to read a few other discussions about Pages and files not being able to open. I actually went to the last back-up and restored the computer from that and everything seemed to work ok again, which is great!...advice from another discussion I think you may have been involved in PeterB. Thanks for the advice...also this advice, as I will make a note of trying to open using the Shift key if it happens again and see what happens...might be an easier first option than restoring from a back-up. Thans heaps for the help!
I was interested to read some of the other discussions where it was stated that Pages '09 seems to be a better option to use. I have both installed, so I will lkeep this in mind. Thanks heaps!

ITunes (Win7 x64) is no longer opening after the latest version update

iTunes (Win7 x64) is no longer opening after the latest version update - I have attempted an un/reinstall - can anyone offer other suggestions?
I am running Windows 7 64-bit, and am trying to reinstall the 64-bit iTunes from the iTunes website. I previously have had this working for the last few years with no major issues, the Apple Software Updater has been pestering me for some time so I finally got it to update. However now iTunes will not start, if I select the icons nothing happens. There are no iTunes applications running in the background in Task Manager either.
I look forward to your suggestions.
Thanks,
James.

1. First check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
2. If that fails, refer to following article to remove SC Files

3. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REAPIR.

Keep getting error code 2048 when trying to open wmv files, says realplayer cannot open with the installed version of Quicktime, any suggestions?

Keep getting error code 2048 when trying to open wmv files, says realplayer cannot open with the installed version of Quicktime, any suggestions?

wmv is a Windows Media format. I don't know why Realplayer is coming into it since that deals primarily with Real format files and maybe a few generic formats.
You need
Free Flip4mac QuickTime player components - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx
After installation a new Flip4Mac pane will appear in System Preferences. Make sure you set the boxes to ensure that it will play WMV files in Quicktime.
or play the files with VLC
VLC media player - http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ - general media player that plays just about anything.
While you're at it you might install:
Perian codecs for Quicktime - http://www.perian.org - plugins to add functionality to Quicktime for playing additional audio and video formats
Quicktime audio problems, Perian, VLC - http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9013669 - read note about uninstalling prior DIVX support before installing Perian.
Perian doen't do WMV but it's handy to get many things to play in Quicktime.
Note, if these are protected WMV, nothing on a Mac will play those (unless you also have Windows installed).

Will I be able to open a library from version 1.5.6 with Aperture 3.1.2?

I have two computers, one running Aperture version 1.5.6 and another running Aperture 3.1.2. Question is will I be able to open my library from version 1.5.6 with version 3.1.2. The computer that is running the early version is dying on me.
Thanks.

When you access the old library with 3 it will upgrade the library before opening it. Make sure you have a backup of the library before accessing it with 3 just in case.
Also be aware once the library is updated it will no longer be accessible from Aperture 1.5.6 and there is no way to reverse the upgrade.

Perhaps check to see if you're accidentally running two different versions of iTunes. There's some information on troubleshooting that in the Opening iTunes section of the following document:

How do I make Firefox 4 the default browser? Whenever I open a link from email, it opens in the older version of Firefox.

I followed the installation instructions for Firefox 4, after I had the earlier version. Whenever I open a link from email or other programs, it opens in the earlier version of Firefox, not Firefox 4.

You'll need to get the Actions dialog to appear and check the use as default action at the bottom of the list. One of the common ways to get this to appear is to follow a link from an email program or a soical network app like Facebook or Twitter.

HT5037 when I click on iPhoto(9.5.1) i get "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared." but i downloaded the up-grader, used it and it tells me the library can open with the current version... what should i do now?

When I click on iPhoto(9.5.1) i get "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared." but i downloaded the up-grader, used it and it tells me the library can open with the current version... Then when I click on the iphoto again i get the same message "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared."'
What should I do?

The upgraded is only necessary for libraries created with iPhoto '07 or eearlier. Just double click the library to open it in iPhoto, and let it upgrade, if it has been created by a newr version.

I previously made an iMovie project, but with the new version of iMovie (10.0.1) it does not have the option to import. How do I retrieve my old iMovie project?

You have to upgrade your iMovie 9 projects from iMovie 10 before you can use them. See:

Most likely you should be fine. Some of the early i7s might not support it (did the first i7 core have integrated GPU?), but any of the last couple are fine. The nice thing is, that you can always add an aftermarket GPU if you need to, so give it a shot.
I have a Haswell i7 (4770k) in my desktop PC, and it's more than enough. I did a lot of research when I built my PC and my conclusion at the time was that a GPU doesn't offer a sizable performance boost unless you buy a really nice GPU ($400+). The integrated GPU can run all the functions of CS6.
My laptop is an older i5. Not sure which, but I think Sandy Bridge. I can notice the difference in process times between the integrated GPU and discrete (AMD). But only on certain heavy filters and when working with big composites (~2 gb files). But that's an i5 and and older one. That said, the integrated GPU is far more stable, so I usually just put up the lag instead of having the AMD GPU crash my computer.

Safari.1.1lion when i open a new window it opens as the old version without the reading list button or the download button why is that ?

so i downloaded the new safari version safari.1.1lion and i installed it and i love it but when i open a new window or i close safari and open it again it opens like the old version (the safari leopard ) it doesnt have the doenload button or the reading list button . it only opens as the new version if i restart the computer why is that.

I did find the problem... It was the DivX Plugin for Firefox. I just found I wasn't using it. I went to Add/Remove Programs and uninstalled it. FYI I am running Windows 7.
