Wow, i was waiting for fcp x to upgrade to a 27" imac. lucky i waited. just saved north of £2k

i'll wait a little longer, i think.

Are you worried about the negative publicity about FCP X?
Unless you are a top Broadcast/Hollywood editor working with a team of others, you will have no problems.
The complained about deficiencies only apply to teams of editors using specialised workflows.
Amateurs, prosumers and most professionals will find the app excellent.
So you can go ahead and get the new iMac  .  .  .  .  .  together with FCP X of course!

  • I have to wait for an Email to upgrade to DRM Free iTunes plus?!

    Im trying to upgrade, but I got a message that I have to wait until I get an email. How long does this normally take? I want to set it before I go to bed as I have about 500 songs to download. I also notice that it keeps adding a few songs every time I check to see how many songs I can upgrade
    Here is the message
    ""your latest itunes plus upgrade is in process "
    Thanks

    Here in germany, I have the same problem... First, iTunes said, my credit card information was wrong! But i checked it immediately and it's right... i have even bought songs an hour ago with this account... well and then another time, when I tried to upgrade to iTunes Plus, it says, that Apple will send me an email, when they're ready to upgrade... well but I am waiting now for over seven hours for this email!
    I also think, that the servers are overburdened cause everybody on the world wants to upgrade their DRM-music to iTunes Plus! But I can't wait for it any longer! I want my DRM-free music

  • Wait for 2013 Mac Mini or get a new iMac?

    Mac Mini's seem a lot better value as you're not paying for the monitor and they are also a lot better to update.
    The iMac doesn't allow you to update hardware yourself really.
    Mac Mini's are due the update. I'm thinking to wait as the fastest processor at the cheapest price is quite important to me. Also the Mac Mini has been out for 1 year today.
    I could buy an Mac Mini in the time being and take it back in 14 days if it's not to speed and then buy a iMac to see the difference myself in speed, while I'm waiting for the mac Mini. I could possibly even try both that way and maybe i'll just fall in love with the iMac and hopefully the new mac Mini will be released in the time being.
    I know the Mac Mini's processor will be slower but the latest one will no doubt be an i7 which will no doubt be fast. Also worried about overheating with the mac mini.
    What should I do?

    One way or another you are paying for the monitor whether you get a Mac mini, an iMac, a Powerbook, or a Mac Pro. The difference is can you replace the monitor and the CPU separately or do you have to replace them as a unit. I have used iMacs for years and loved them, but some months ago I switched to a Mac mini with an Apple Thunderbolt monitor. Upgradability is not the forte of any Mac short of the Mac Pro and its upgradability is almost entirely from external devices. Only Apple knows what the next iMac and Mac mini will be like, but the new new Mac Pro demonstrates what Apple's engineers are thinking of.
    That said, not even the rumor sites are saying anyghing about a new Mac mini so I would not hold my breath waiting on a new one. So if you need and/or want a Mac mini, now is as probably as good a time as any to get one. My 2.6GHz i7 with a 1.1TB Fusion drive, 16GB of RAM and a 27" Tunderbolt monitor is proving to be a very good and reliable machine. Fast enough that I have never felt any speed constraints. The biggest limiting factor is probably the video, but I am not into RPG or other heavy duty game use so that is not a problem. FWIW I ended up spending roughly the same amount on the fully tricked out Mac mini with the TB monitor as a comprarably equipped iMac. I will get well financially in a few years when I buy another faster and more powerful Mac mini, or maybe even a Mac Pro if I am feeling really flush at the time.
    By the way when I do upgrade I already have plans to use my current Mac mini as a "headless" file server tucked away in a closet somewhere.

  • Are FCP Studio 2 manuals good for FCP Studio 3 upgrade?

    Hey there people:  Just received the FCP Studio 3 upgrade from FCP Studio 2, and the tiny manual that comes with it.  Are the FCP Studio 2 manuals good for detail about FCP 3?

    BenB wrote:
    The tiny books are all already on your computer in the Help menu inside FCP.  And none of the tiny books are User Manuals.
    In FCP 7, go to the Help menu, you have direct access to the User Manual (and other manuals, including the tiny printed book) directly from within the Application itself.  You can zoom in/out, you can also search them with keyworlds.  Very powerful, very handy, very easy, very clearly written, way better than paper.
    Downloaoding them only puts a second copy on your hard drive, taking up more room, waste of time, since you already have it on your hard drive, as I just stated.  And printing them would take literally thousands of pages of paper.
    Good grief.
    The complete set of FCP and studio documentation is accessible from the Mac Help system just by holding the Home button. You do not need to have FCP open at all. The problem with Mac Help is the window comes forward and blocks all underlying windows making it difficult or impossible to perform the operations described.
    Being able to open the documentation in Preview or Acrobat is remarkably useful (excellent chapters, bookmarking, indexing, searching not available in Mac Help) so downloading the PDF  versions is not only a good idea, it might be exactly the solution you need.
    And the documentation is so a "user manual."
    Final Cut Pro 7: User Manual 
    Provides comprehensive instructions for setting up a Final Cut Pro editing system and using Final Cut Pro to ingest media, edit video, and output completed projects.

  • TS4124 I have songs posted in my iTunes as"waiting"  these have been waiting for 2 weeks.  how can i get them to stop "waiting"?

    I have itunes match which inported songs from my pc.  Most of the songs imported OK but many are "waiting"  I have turned off itunes match then back on but nothings seems to help them inport or stop "waiting"  what can I do?
    Also when I did the match some songs within an alblum are listed in bold black, others more grayed.  I can play the black songs but the grayed ones are inactive, any ideas for that?

    I had exactly the same problem. Check that the tracks still appear in your iTunes folder under Music (they should if you've re-downloaded them from the cloud). Next, look in your Movies folder and the songs might appear as individual folders. Delete those folders, empty your trash and then delete the tracks from the Movies tab in iTunes.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT4796 I started Migration Assistant and then my old computer spontaneously restarted.  I am back in Migration Assistant but my [new] iMac is still waiting for input from my old computer, and my old computer is waiting for the iMac to connect.  What do I

    I have a new iMac.  I'm using Migration Assistant to transfer files.  My old computer spontaneously shut down.  I restarted it and am trying to use Migration Asst again, but each computer is waiting on input from the other one.  What do I do?

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

  • Weird problem XP freezes after system was off for several hours after upgrading to X

    Mobo: Gigabyte GA-M55plus-S3G, Athlon 64 X2 3800 AM2, GB PC 3200, XFX Geforce 7600GT, 80 GB system dri've Barracuda 7200, Sata Raid 2x 300 GB Maxtor DiamondMax0, PSU Seasonic 600W, Ralink Wireless PCI card, Sony floppy, Pioneer DVR
    After the installation of the new soundcard I could reboot initially but not reboot when I used the PC a few hours/next day later. The blue XP indicator bar would freeze. Tried several re-installs. Then I re-installed everything including XP from the beginning. When re-installing the graphics card driver (old and latest version) system would hang with a blinking cursor.
    I also updated BIOS successfully to F6. Full re-installation -everything seemed to work. Re-booted several times- OK. Booted a few hours later- XP freezes when blue indicator bar has ben running for a few seconds.
    I have now the latest drivers for both soundcard, graphics card, BIOS and latest DirectX installed. I cannot understand why the system would reboot immediately after installation but freeze a few hours later. Is this some kind of hardware problem ?
    my friend and I using same components and we both have same problem!!
    REMOVING the X-Fi card solves the problem

    Ok, tried these installations:?Clean XP Install --> Mainboard Drivers --> Video Drivers --> Audio DriversClean XP Install --> Video Drivers --> Mainboard Drivers --> Audio DriversClean XP Install --> Audio Drivers --> Mainboard Drivers --> Video Drivers?I continued with several other reinstalls. After each one, Windows had NO PROBLEM rebooting and loading into the XP desktop. IF you turned off the PC, though, and back on again, Windows would lock up at the loading screen with the scrolling blue bar. Likewise, I still encountered the blinking cursor error when installing the video drivers AFTER the audio drivers but not vice versa. Either way, when I turned off the PC for the 'ultimate' deciding-test, X-Fi would not allow Windows to post. I pulled the X-Fi card out and voila, Windows loaded with no problems whatsoever. Of course I had no sound because they weren't the drivers for an SB Li've! 24-bit, you get the idea. My system is:?AMD 4600+ AM2GA-M55Plus-S3G (Gigabyte mainboard, rev .)2GB Corsair XMSPro Series DDR2-800 RAMeVGA 8800GTX PCI-e video cardMemorex DVDR+/-WWD 250GB SATAII HDSBLi've! 24-bit sound card?I was trying to upgrade to an X-Fi Fatalty Professional Gamer (without the I/O panel). I had no idea stupid NForce4 boards were incompatible with certain X-Fi products (and vice versa). Can anyone suggest some alterior sound cards that would work with mine and the second posters board? Or, recommend a suitable mainboard that is relati'vely 'new' and works flawlessly with the X-Fi series, so I don't run into a stupid issue like this again? I daresay, Creative, I've been a longtime supporter of your cards for YEARS, all the way back to 995 and THIS is unbelievable. One last question, has ANYONE tried the Fatalty series X-Fi on an actual Fatalty series mainboard?Message Edited by cookiemanx on 2-05-20062:08 AM

  • Error in "Wait for event" step

    Hi,
    I try to use a wait for an event (CREATED) on a delegated subtype to business object KNB1.
    Container element in the wait step is empty at the time of creation of the runtime wait item but I know what the key of the container element has to be so my idea was to set in a check funktion module in trx. SWEINST and filter out irrelevant events.
    But when the waitstep is to be created, the workflow goes into error: WL 442 No valid object for the container element.
    Should this not be possible?
    Any suggestions for another solution?
    I have also tried to instantiate the object before the wait for event step - but since the object does not exist in the database yet - method GENERIC.INSTANTIATE goes in error, too.
    WAS 700 sp 11 with ERP 6.0 but also tried on a 620 with 4.7
    Thanks,
    Regards,
    Claus Lücking

    Hi Mark,
    Yes, you are right - I am waiting for an event on a object not yet created:
    I am waiting for a customer to be created in FI via change documents (table KNB1). Since the customer is going to be created in a company code that has a one-to-one reference to the sales organization where it is created first, I know the key of FI customer to be created.
    Example: A Customer 23 is created in sales area 1000-01-01 and the workflow is triggered via an event KNVV.CREATED. Then I would like to wait for event KNB1.CREATED for customer 23 in company code 1000.
    Thanks,
    Claus.

  • Workflow WAIT FOR EVENT STEP deadline not working

    Hi,
    Need some inputs for the experienced people;
    I have a wait for event step in a workflow with deadline monitoring (Latest End) but it doesn't seem to work.
    Ofcourse, all the required setting are in place and deadline works fine for other Activity steps.
    The problem is specific to Wait for event step.
    The alternative is having a fork but I just want to know why the wait step with deadline doesn't work.
    Thanks,
    Roopesh

    Hello Ajay,
    Can you share with us what did you do to solve your problem?
    I'm facing the same thing in my project now, I'm wandering if you could help me with this one.
    I have this wait for an event step wich is configured to wait 4 minutes since the work item creation. I've also selected 'Modeled' on the Action field, and a display text for the outcome.
    But in one of my tests, the event hasn't occurred and the workflow stuck in this task forever.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards.
    Actually, I think I got this handled. This thread was really helpful to me: http://scn.sap.com/thread/47482

  • Maximum Wait for WS Consumer: SOAMANAGER Logical port

    Hello Everyone,
    I was trying to configure consumer proxy through SOAMANAGER transaction. When you create a Logical port, within Transport setting you can see a Parameter called 'Maximum Wait for WS Consumer' which as per my understanding is the time for which the consumer is required to wait for a response from Provider.
    The problem here is i cannot edit that value. The field is disabled with its default value as '0'(wait for infinite amount of time). I want to make that wait period as just 10 secs.
    Am i heading in the right direction? If yes, then how can i edit that value?
    Regards
    Shailesh

    Hello Shailesh
    You should be able to modify this parameter. See the link:

  • Anyone else waiting for a Macbook replacement battery?

    My battery packed up on the 6th August and I rang Apple Care on the 7th August. They said that they would send out a new battery. After waiting a week I rang them again and the person I spoke to couldn't understand why it hadn't been shipped to me as it was in stock. He said that he would re-submit the replacement battery order for me. A week latter it still hadn't arrived so I rang again and this time I was told that it was out of stock and wouldn't get supplies until latter this week (24th or 25th of August). However, I just looked in the online Apple store and it says that it they available for 24 hour shipping. Is anyone else waiting for a replacement battery in the UK?
    iMac G4 15" flat screen : MacBook 1.83 (Tiger)   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    It took me about 2-3 weeks for a replacement to be available from the apple reseller. from where i am the apple distributor is from singapore and apparently there have been a lot of warranty exchanges. initially they said 1 week but it eventually got mine in about 21/2 weeks. well i just got it lets see if it works and lasts!

  • Mac Mini: buy now or wait for the Speed Bump?

    Hi guys
    I wanted to ask you something. First of all, would you buy a Mac Mini now o would you wait for a little hardware upgrade? It'd be my first Mini (I already have an iMac) and it would exclusively used as a Media Center, connected to a Sharp HD 37" (not Full HD though).
    I was wondering if the graphic card of the Mini could support mkv files (the HD compressed with the mkv algorithm) because they have a high bitrate and the graphic card is quite weak (IMHO).
    I just wanted to know what you think, I hope you can advise me.
    Thank you for your attention.

    Thank you guys for your answer.
    I think that I'll wait for a little hw upgrade. I know that with Apple nothing is sure but I wanna buy a Mac Mini just to use it as a media center so I have to be sure that it'll work fine playing mkv files. Also I've promised my father that he'll be able to see as many HD films as he wants so I want to wait. Also because he's just bought me an iMac so you can understand I must be 100% sure.
    If someone else can give me further information about mkv files please tell me.
    Thank you all.

  • At the end of sync itunes hangs with message waiting for files to be transferred....iphone 4s?

    at the end of sync itunes hangs with message waiting for files to be transferred....iphone 4s?-
    and just sits there for an hour or more... sync is not finished, nothing happens... Any ideas?

    I called tech support and they had me schedule a time to walk through the problem with an apple engineer last night.
    They acknowledged that they've been getting calls about this issue but that's all they said.
    Make a long story short there was no solution. I ended up backing up all my info, contacts, notes ect. to the cloud and restoring the iPhone to the factory settings, then I synced back to the cloud but did not restore from a previous back-up just use as a new phone then manually check off the media pictures, music, movies ect.
    It's not the ideal way but it worked for me because I don't have a ton of stuff on the phone and I can even sync wirelessly now where's before I couldn't check that feature on in iTunes because it wouldn't sync.
    One thing since you can't restore from a previous back-up make sure to manually back up your camera roll or turn on photo stream to back up photos to the cloud.
    Hope this helps.

  • Am I worth to wait for the new macbooks with snow leopard?

    As the day Apple released the new macbook pro 17. I was considering about If I need to wait for the all macbooks with the new operating system. Because I just heard that Snow leopard will come with a 64 bit. But now leopard just is with 32 bit. Some of people said new macbooks with snow leopard will be different from the old models(2008 late), even the macbook pro 17 2009. Can someone help me? Thanks a lot.

    I think if you need a new laptop you can take the plunge. If you have a look on the apple website on the SL page you will note the following text near the bottom:
    +Benchmark based on the SunSpider JavaScript Performance test on a 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo-based iMac with Mac OS X Snow Leopard and 2GB of RAM.+
    That's the sort of specs for a machine that would run the OS well...I think the new 17" MB Pro is well within that ballpark.
