WIN - MAC -WIN - MAC.... What the...
Really! what is wrong now days!
Are we all living happilly ever after using open source technology on our Win's and our Mac's and dont't give ANY CREDIT to ALL THEM LINUX USERS CONTRIBUTING ENTIRE SYSTEMS WITH OPEN SOURCE CODE ALL THESE YEARS!?!?!?
For Windows I can understand this... BUT Mac?!?!?! over Unix and Linux????
What about the Solaris version dudes?? I haven't seen any of that either....
I was waiting so long for this release and you gave it to the monkeys that haven't seen a shell in their whole life and dont't have an idea of what is open source (which Sun is practically based onto).
Even "MacBuddy" Adobe made a linux version of Flex.
I've also seen the Ad that said at the end "keep it open"... well that's a laugh...

Adobe PSE12 Trial download page is producing an error at the moment (although five minutes ago it did offer the Windows trial download) so maybe they are in the process of adding the Mac version. Actuallly I think that error was a problem with my browser cache <sheepish grin>
You can get the Mac trial from http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html.

Time for a new Mac - Whats the BEST for Aperture?
Its time for me to upgrade my box and while I have money to spend I don't want to break the bank. This computer is just for Aperture!!! Which is the best graphic card(s), do I need 16 gigs of memory, is two quads worth the money? If I put RAID in can I get by with just 2 hard drives or do I need 4 for speed? If I buy the best and most of everything the box and displays comes to $14,000. Do I have to spend that much? $8000 is more realistic. What do you suggest?
TIA
ChrisBest is to wait until after Mac Expo SF in 2 weeks, then decide which Mac Pro is best. Aperture demands heavy hardware so the highest end MP will be "best" but some middle range model or even an older model may be most cost effective while still very good. Wait.
Today 2 drives in a RAID 0 array probably saturates a MP as far as throughput is concerned, but we need to wait and see what new MPs, cards, etc. are before configuring an optimum Aperture box. Doing exactly that homework is much of what I will be doing at Mac Expo.

Cant load my studio 8 to the mac (its win/mac) what is the problem?
I have a new mac mini and cannot get the thing to recognize the license even though the thing is win/mac. what's wrong?
If any of the music files didn't come from Apple, then you will need to seek the advice of another Mac website, like MacRumors or Apple Insider, to inquire about the latest third party software that can place ALL the files back onto the Mac.
Supposedly there is a way to reverse only iTunes purchased music back onto a Mac, it excludes the music from other sources. -
I restart my mac air accidentally during reinstallation, after I restart the machine again, I lost all the drives in my computer including win OS. what can I do?
This is not a reply. I just want to elaborate on this problem.
My computer freezes occasionally when it is used after being sleep for a while. The spinning ball appears and everything is totally disabled. Nothing on the keyboard works.
The mouse moves, but does not work.
The only solution is to turn the power off and on (losing all data in open applications.)
I kept the System monitor running on the side to find out which program was running when the computer froze. The Monitor as well as all other applications froze, but the data showed:
Firefox 18.4%
Activity Monitor 0.9%
Firefox Plugin 0.2%
This is all the information I have. By the way, I am using iMac with OS 10.6. -
I tried to install windows 7 in my macbook pro late 2011 but i tried to create partions after it installed and it turn to dynamic disks and i can't access mac or win 7 what should I do i cant format it because i dont have a backup
It's not that you can't format it because you have no backup, it's because you'll lose everything when you do. Lesson learned. Always have a backup.

I tried to partition him using bootcamp but didn't have mac os cd neither mac instalation. the problem i am dealing now its that i cant go back to OS partition since its not appeared when i restart c and no win drivers to have a properly running system. I've thought as an option to re-download boot-camp and run the instalation from windows partition and see if i can repair it that way, didnt try yet thought just in case anyone has a better prposition or dealed with the same problem
Take it to your local Apple Store or AASP, it's covered by a 1 year hardware warranty. If you have AppleCare then give them a call but I'm pretty sure they will advise the same. If you have not purchased AppleCare yet please do, this will extend the warranty to 3 years however it MUST be purchased within the first year of ownership. Let it go 366 days and you are out of luck. AppleCare will also include telephone support too.
Good luck. -
The Enterprise Mac: What works on a Mac based on my experience at SAP.
I've been a Mac User at SAP for 4.5 years and here's what I have running and what I know of that should work.
First, the stuff that I rely on everyday:
<b>
SAP Portal in Firefox </b>- almost everything works. The navigation panel has a scroll bar in it, but is usable. I have imported my SSO certificate from Secude's SSO solution on PC into Firefox, so I can access SAP's corporate portal.
<b>Firepass and Contivity VPN</b>- Both VPN solutions work with my PowerBook G4, although I heard that Intel based macs don't yet work with F4 networks Firepass. At TechEd Las Vegas '06 F4 claimed that this is now fixed and SAP has yet to deploy it.
<b>Windows Networking, File Servers</b>- This works exceptionally well (except the resource links on mac use slashes (like web addresses) and in windows they use whacks (\). Annoying. I can authenticate agains the domain and even change my NT login password. I use Dave from <a href="http://www.thursby.com">Thursby Software</a>. For proxy serving I use auto-configuration using a PAC file.
<b>Desk-top to desk-top sharing</b>- I use this everyday because I have both a Widows Machine (for Netmeeting) and I need to share files back and forth. I can open the Mac from the Windows machine and the reverse. Again I use Dave from <a href="http://www.thursby.com">Thursby Software</a>.
<b>Remote Desktop</b>- Working for a software company inevadably need to access servers via . It works great!<a href="http://www.microsoft.com/mac/otherproducts/otherproducts.aspx?pid=remotedesktopclient">Remote Desktop from Microsoft</a>.
<b>Microsoft Office</b>- I love it on Mac!
<b>Email</b>- I use Entourage, the Exchange client in Mac Office. Over all a good program but suffers from not being fully featured. My top two gripes are: You can book resources in Meeting Requests and you can't forward meeting requests!
<b>Wireless</b>-I use <a href="http://www.ipass.com/">iPass</a> for Mac and it works great when I travel! I can also automatically authenticate against SAP's corporate wireless network using 802.1x.
<b>Corporate Printers</b>- I use Dave from <a href="http://www.thursby.com">Thursby Software</a> again. It works very well. Others have had success without Dave.
<b>Collaboration</b>- Webex works very well, and I have heard that NetMeeting has a Java client. I haven't used it though. Anyone?
== What I heard works ==
<b>SAPGui Java client</b>- I also heard that it is far behind the Windows version. Any comments?
<b>Secude SSO Java client</b>- Apparently the version we're using inside SAP is not an officially supported version by Secude. My contacts there say that they are working on an official version in the near future. Stay tuned.
<b>Windows Messenger</b>- Apparently it was working in SAP, but it was taken down for security reasons... Don't know much else. It sure would make my life easier when its up since the entire company is now using it.Hi Eric,
My experience on an Intel Mac is this:
- Any <b>SAP website</b> that requires a security certificate does not work in Safari. I've been led to believe this is Apple's problem, and I can work around it by using Firefox, but still. In Firefox, there are issues with SAP's websites. In the forums, for example, and page will open in the middle, in stead of at the top.
- <b>Windows networking</b>: the usual problem is OS X's inability to remember logins. It's fairly annoying to have to re-type my login and password every day. And at my current client I can't get to the network at all. I'll have a look at Dave, see if that helps.
- <b>Office</b>: it works well, now that I've upgraded my MBP from 1 to 2 GB. Before it was sluggish, and in tandem with Parallels, it was physically painful. Now, even when both programs are running, they run just fine. Although Office could use some more of "the snappy".
- I use <b>Mail, Address Book, and iCal</b>. It does what I need. The only thing I'd be interested in is some way of plugging into my customer's address book to find e-mail addresses.
- <b>SAPGUI for Java</b>: this works, mostly, but it is slow. Embarrassingly so. It's slow in general, but anytime a longish list needs to be loaded, it gets real bad. Try working in the ABAP editor with an include of 3,000 or more lines... Apart from the slowness, there are a number of missing functions for which I keep Parallels handy. Drag and drop is one, and on the 6.4 version, there was a GUI control that would make the GUI crash.
- <b>Parallels</b>. I can't say enough good stuff about this. Parallels. Parallels. Love it.
<b>Some other points</b>:
- I'd be interested if anyone has installed NetWeaver 2004s under Boot Camp. I'm a bit wary of dropping $300 on a license for WinXP when it may not ever work (Parallels is running W2K, in case you were wondering).
- At TechEd, I had the hardest time connecting to the Internet, even with Firefox. A few sites I could get to, if I disabled images, JavaScript, and Java, but most, even the common ones such as Yahoo or Google, I could not. I ran into someone else using a MBP, and she had no problems whatsoever. So obviously the problem was with <i>my machine</i>, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out what it was. Most frustrating! -
I'm now having trouble getting mac mail to work on my mac. The mobile me account works great on iphone and ipad but it won't connect to my mail account. Password is correct. What else can I do? Using OS10.68
HI,
The Apple IDs from @mac.com and @me.com (Older MobileMe and more recent iCloud Names) are also Valid AIM Screen names.
Any other sort of Apple ID is not a Valid AIM Name.
A Google ID that is associated with Google Mail Account (And has "Talk" enable on your Google Settings) can be used in iChat as Jabber Name/ID. (Google Run Jabber server).
Jabber and AIM are different IM Services and it is not easy or straight forward to add Buddies from one Service to the Buddy List of another. (As A Starting point consider it "impossible")
iChat 4 and 5 have links to the registration page of @Mac.com here with a "Get an iChat Account" button in the add (Account) screen (You select @mac.com or MobileMe and then press the Button - Choosing AIM and then pressing the button used to lead to the AIM registration page but AIM moved their page).
Apple IDs can be any valid email (or an @mac.com or iCloud registration)
Therefore you could make a Google ID into an Apple ID.
However this will not be a valid AIM Screen Name the way @mac.com or MobileMe/iCloud ones are.

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.

My Screen quit on my ipod nano 6th gen... still syncs to my mac but the screen functions wont work... Whats up with it?
Read the PDF user manual for a possible solution: iPod Manuals and/or iPod Nano Support
Every iPod comes with complimentary, single-incident telephone technical support within 90 days of your iPod purchase.
If you also purchased AppleCare, then your warranty is extended for technical support and hardware coverage for two years from the original purchase date of your iPod. -
for some reason osx mountain lion has disappeared from my purchases and now when i want to install mountain lion on another mac with the same apple id it wants to charge me for the program even though i have already purchased it. what do i do?
Open the Mac App Store on the other Mac and in the Quick Links sign into your account. See if the Mountain Lion purchase is among hidden apps in the iCloud area of your account info.

How can i use microsoft office on the mAC - what app do i purchase? help?!!
how can i use microsoft office on the mAC - what app do i purchase? help?!!
What aspect of Microsoft Office? Office is a suite of programs... Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.
You've got several potential options. Libre Office and Open Office (both googleable) are 'open source,' free, downloadable programmes that will open most MS Office programmes and perform many of the functions of MS Office. Might be an idea to have a look round for reviews (etc) first, to see if they sound like they'll match your needs.
If you're keen to use the App Store, there's Apple's own suite of programmes: Pages, Numbers and Keynote. They're a word processor, spreadsheet programme, and presentation-type programme with similar functions to Word, Excel and Powerpoint respectively. They're pretty good for most functions, and are better integrated with Macs than MS programmes. They're excellent programmes for what they do, and relatively cheap (about £14 each?).
But if you're heavily reliant on MS, want ALL the bells and whistles of MS, or need to regularly transfer files between MS programmes on other computers and your laptop / desktop computer, then they might not be the best of ideas. Keynote - IME - can have some difficulties in transferring formatting to Powerpoint.
Finally, there's MS Office Mac 2011. You can't download MS Office from the App Store, but can order the CDs from most online stores (including Apple's own store). It might be worth price hunting - if you're a student, you can usually find the programmes relatively cheap (£38 at the moment on Software4Students, though you'll need to belong to an academic institution / have a UK .ac email address). Apple's own prices on MS software are unlikely to be the best prices out there (though the product will be identical).
MS Office includes Word, Excel and Powerpoint in the basic version. The slightly more expensive version (which, I think, is the £38 one on S4S) includes Outlook. Which - IME - is far more of a nuisance than Apple's native Mail programme.
(I should probably add - I'm an academic. I own both Apple's own programmes, and MS Office 2011. I tend to use the MS programmes more, if only because they're the ones that other people tend to use, and transferring between Apple and MS programmes is a minor inconvenience. Pages also lacks Garamond, my favourite work font. The Apple progs are, however, far more beautifully integrated, and would be MORE than good enough for most users...) -
Whats the best way to connect multiple iphones, ipads, ipods with multiple accounts to one mac
I have iPhone 5s, ipad 4th gen ipod classic and mac mini on one itunes account with iphone 4s with ipad 1st gen on another account (wife's account) and also want to be able to add to this in the future. I want to connect through the mac mini and be able to use music movies calanders reminders etc through all our i's, whats the simplest and best way to go about this, before i start down the wrong road.
Ok, here is the link to the original thread. The key, for him, was that all of the pads used the same apple id, and needed to be set up identically.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15456170#15456170
The other trick they use for distributing materials for whatever class was using the pads, was to create an e mail account that they all had acees to. The documents, pdf, or whatever, would be e mailed to the account. Each kid accesses and downloads the email. Does whatever they are supposed to do, and e mails the done result back to the mailbox. Easy for the teacher and the kids. -
I have lightroom 5.7. Now I have apple TV to connect my Mac to the TV scree. I wish to do a slide show on the TV. However, on the Mac, using ITunes to share photos with the TV, I cannot locate all photo files. What is the best way to save the slide show and put it where the Mac sharing can find it? So far, I made on one folder in Lightroom, put some photos there and I found them easily. Can this be done with a slide show? Please help quickly! Also worried that the photos I put on the new folder are hard to find afterwards, when the show is done. Where do they go when I delete from from the new folder?I am not alone
Not that I'm aware of. You just export JPEG copies to a folder that you can point iTunes to. For instance, I have created a folder in my Pictures folder called Apple TV. And within that folder I have other folders of pictures that I can choose from in iTunes to share with Apple TV. But there doesn't seem to be any way to share a Lightroom slideshow. If you have laid to create a video file that would probably work. Apple TV is a little clunky in my opinion. Some things are a little more difficult to do now than they were a while back. I probably haven't provided you with much help, but just keep experimenting and I think you will figure it out.

i buy a mac mini from amazon, and it is registered on another Apple ID, and i need to change it to mine, how can i do that, note that i can't contact the previous owner of this mac, what shall i do to set it under my Apple ID.
ThanksAs I said you need to:
You need to wipe the hard disk and reinstall the OS by booting into the recovery partition and reinstall the original OS via the internet. It will ask you to enter your ID
