X220 (i7 version) - First impressions video

Edited up a few clips together of unboxing and laptop comparisons with the new X220 I got.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9WCS0n0zqc
The specs of this one is the i7 2620M which has the usb3 on it. I've got another video in that channel with it using the usb3 port as well.
Great little laptop so far though, and I'm running 1.12 - havn't updated to 1.16/7 yet, giving it another little while to make sure they iron things out with those bios updates (don't have turbo activated, and have not been throttled yet. Fan noise is very quiet, nothing high pitched.)

Hello,
My initial thought is to see if you can isolate the problem to a specific domain, such as CPU, memory, disk drive and so forth. For the memory, a program like MemTest86 can be run overnight to see if any patterns of bad RAM are identified. For the CPU, a program like Prime95 can be run (it sounds similar to the test you performed with the BOINC client). For the hard disk (or SSD) I would suggest visting the actual drive manufacturer's web site and seeing what sort of bootable diagnostic CD/USB image they have for download. If given a choice between running destructive and non-destructive tests, be sure to choose the non-destructive option, otherwise you will erase the drive.
Regards,

Galaxy S6 - First impressions.

I upgraded my Sim only deal to refresh deal and got myself a non edge version of the Galaxy S6 in the process - I am still playing with it but here are my first impressions. Build quality is excellent (even the packaging is very well made!), the phone feels very solid and very well made - I was worried that the glass back would make the phone 'slippery' in the hand, but the opposite seems to be the case - the phone fits very well in the hand and feels safe. The buttons are very well placed and the seperate volume buttons seem better than the rocker type. The phone did get quite warm during the initial setup and update phase, I put this down to a lot of updates and wifi activity - no sign of this since. The phone responds very quickly and is very smooth - I don't notice any lag at all. One thing I do find myself doing on this phone is catching the capactive buttons by accident, I am putting this down to me just getting used to a larger phone. Camera - I am no photographer but the camera is excellent, taking very good pictures. I took the dog out last night and took some photos see how it worked in low light and I was very impressed. Video is equally impressive and the Ultra HD video is simply excellent quality - one issue here is while the UHD video plays ok on the phone, my laptop is having issues playing the video without it breaking up - I am assuming this is a media player issue. I will try the UHD playback on the TV later to see how this works. Call quality seems much better than my A3 - and texts seem to send a lot quicker, I am assuming this is just because of the extra grunt of the S6. It came with Lollipop 5.0.2 and asked to do an update, which I did and it updated to 5.0.2! It appears O2 have rolled back the 5.1.1 update I was expecting it to update to, no doubt this will be addressed in time. Lollipop - this is the first time I have used this on a phone, and it seems pretty good - I especially the quick camera or dialer launch from the lock screen - from the lock screen simply drap the camera icon and the camera launches pretty much instantly, same for the dialer. I also like the improved notifications and the ability to do a quick reply to a text directly from the notification. It comes with a adaptive fast charger, and indeed does charge fast - while charging there is a notification of how long left - as a bit of a test today I was on about 50% and plugged it into a normal charger, it told me three and half hours to charge, when plugged into the fast charger it the notification said 48 mins! It appears you can get a full charge in about an hour and ten mins - impressive. Screen - it has to been seen to believed - I would say this is the best screen I have ever seen on a smartphone, it will be interesting to put it side by side with my friends Note 3 for comparison. One last thing that impressed me was the bundled earphones - they sound quite impressive! I will do a fuller review once I've used it for a few days but my initial opinion - everything I expected it would be, and then some!

I really like your first impressions ! Not too technical, everybody can understand it (even me!) and addressing details that are decisive for a lot of people when choosing a new mobile.I can tell that you have put "heart" in this review/first impressions....I can imagine you having like a "little" list, in your head,of things you are curious to know about the phone and trying them one by one... well done! I find it truly useful!

How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project?

OK...this is a probably a very basic question but I'm not sure how to word it clearly.
How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project? What I mean is that I have a bout 50 minutes of video and I want to make two DVDs using different clips from this original 50 minutes of footage. It would be a real pain to have to re-import the video AGAIN for the second DVD. I suppose I could drop anything I don't want to burn to DVD back into the clips pane but that would wipe out all my transitions wouldn't it? I want to save each project in their “raw” form so I can burn additional DVDs later otherwise I would just do them one at a time and not care about one of them being destroyed.
Wow...that was a mess. Does anyone understand what the heck I’m asking? I hope so.

How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project?
You can't. You make separate projects using the same or different clips, segments, transitions, titles, etc. You can even duplicate the first project and then modify/make the desired changes in the duplicated project. Each project can then be burned as a different DVD or as different titles on the same DVD if there is enough room.

ITunes 11.0 First Impressions

1. My first impression of the user interface is that it's "square" and "flat".
   Esthetically I don't see it as an improvement. To the contrary, I think
   the former interface is nicer.
2. After starting iTunes 11.0 it sat there for 1/2 an hour with the message
   "Sending Information to Apple", then a dialog box displayed with:
   We cannot complete your iTunes Store request
   An unknown error occurred (4002)
   Note that three subsequent attempts resulted in the same iTunes match error.
3. Could not find a way to change the BRIGHT WHITE background. I hate the white
   background for various reasons. I'm sure many other customers preferred the dark
    background as well.
4. Tried syncing my iPhone and had to cancel. It was copying 49 apps, I believe
   some of these were from my iPad. Had to then restart iTunes.
5. Movies in grid view have large gaps in between the rows of movies.
   It is UGLY! Is it just me, or do others have these huge gaps?
6. Looking at my music, I see no way to view the songs in a list view.
   Where are the convenient buttons which quickly allowed changing views?
   Now there is just unused space where they used to be. And all of
   the menu items under View -> Column Browser are disabled.
   Why???
7. Hey, at least they brought back color icons, which Apple deemed that
   no one liked! (That was sarcasm).
Overall I am extremely dissapointed with this update, and it has me wondering how the
most valuable company in the world could release something that looks more at home
on a Linux desktop.

It's terrible. There is no symmetry in the views anymore. It is so bad, that it will take a lot of testing for me to figure out what is wrong with it. The only view that allows different views is the playlist view. I can't get an "artist list" for all my music. I can only get it for the currently selected playlist. I suppose I could make a playlist with all music. Where did sort by album by artist/year go? That's the view I used the most. I found it in the songs view. But there I can't see the album covers. It's so unsymmetrical now. Where did the status bar go that told me how many songs I selected and what the total play time is? I don't know if all my songs are there. The albums view and the videos views are worthless if you have 15,000 songs and videos. They just rearranged things. There's nothing new. There are things missing. The thing that needed fixing was synchronization. All that should be removed from iTunes, but they didn't make any changes to that. Can I go back to iTunes 10?

CS-4 First Impressions

First impressions. I know, quite out of date but with all the apparent problems...
System is a Lenovo 3000 series AMD 64x2 3800+
Power supply upgraded
Memory 2 gig Crucial (maximum for the MB)
Video card is Nvidia GeForce 7300 GS - Latest drivers. Not on the supported list.
Display is 1280 x 1024.
Windows XP Home SP-3, Net Framework 3.5 SP 1, and other Forum recommended updates that aren't handled by Windows Update.
1.05 TB in three drives. (1 K=1024)
Working with a 6144x4111 pixel 16 bit ProPhoto digital photograph:
As installed, in the trial download, GUI settings, Photoshop swap file is NOT on the system drive.
The start up time is about the same as with CS-3. Faster than CS.
Top menu bar text is rough and appears broken until I put the curser over the text. Then it clears up.
Click & drag zoom works like a charm.
"Toss" has a quarter to half second delay before the image moves.
Lag behind brush is quite noticeable even when zoomed in.
Brush border is rough & jagged. An indicator that the brush smoothness slider is set to full smooth?
I saw no delay with typing. (I have to look at the keys and when I looked up after the last letter it was there and sharp.)
A new learning curve for the palates IS going to need to be climbed. Or is there a "Look like CS, CS2, CS3" toggle somewhere? (NOTE the "First Impressions" above!)
Now for the interesting part. This test showed the same results as a test, same file but reduced to 3074 pixels width and in 8-bit color. I was doing a "see if file size makes a difference" test.
There was no difference in behavior with the system running "free" or with ZoneAlarm Pro and BitDefender running in the background. I have BitDefender set to NOT load on computer boot.
With the stock Open GL settings and a below grade video card, the brief test gave better than expected results with the main down grade being brush lag.
Just my observations with a video card that may be pushed beyond what can be reasonably expected of it and settings not tuned as per recommendations here.
One thing that I haven't seen mentioned before is the new ability to re-tune the settings in adjustment layers. There have been many times I would have wanted that ability in the past.
Bill

let me make sure I get this; the phone, it is a phone after all, does not have good signal, and it will not pair properly with bluetooth, but you are saying 'everything else is fine'!!!!!!! Why don't you return it, and go get yourself an itouch? You will have all the apps, etc. Then get a mifi from sprint/verizon and you are all set. Then, go get yourself a proper phone with a decent carrier and you will be all set.

First impressions of the iPad

I played with an iPad yesterday at our local Apple Store, and my first impressions are very positive. I plan to buy one when the 3G models come out in a few weeks.
The only major disappointment for me is that the iPad OS does not support printing to local networked or shared printers. Does anyone know of a good 3rd party solution for this?
Thanks,

First impressions of the iPad
I'm reasonably satisfied. iPad was purchased primarily as a nightstand entertainment device for the bedroom. I use it for reading, streaming of netflix video, playback of synched TV content, and/or playing music before going to sleep at night. (Wife likes to watch TV but I usually prefer reading a chapter or two or catching up on Lost which I never watched on TV.) And, while I don't really plan to use it for and serious productive/creative work, I did invest in the iWork apps for presentations at computer group meeting and/or the creation of PDF files when away from home and visiting relatives. (Plan to take it with me today when about 15 relatives all gather for our annual Easter Meal at a local restaurant.) In any case, I am happy with my purchase.

Should I uninstall downloaded trial version first?

I have Photoshop CS installed on a G5, and purchased boxed versions of Photoshop CS4 Upgrade and Lightroom 2 Full for a new MacBook Pro. Prior to the boxed versions arriving, I downloaded trial versions of both on the MacBook Pro.
When the boxed versions arrive, is there any reason to unstall both trial versions first rather than just entering the serial numbers on the trial versions downloaded? Are there any extra things that will install during a typical install from the boxed versions that were not downloaded for the trial version installation?
Thanks,
John

Thanks for both answers.
I did call Customer Service, and the rep said I could do either, and could not elaborate on any advantages either way, so I had the impression she was not knowledgable in this.
I think I read somewhere on the site that the trial version could be converted to a full version by entering the serial number, which led to my question.
Anyway, I will follow both your suggestions and completely uninstall the trial versions when I receive the media.
Thanks again,
John

HT5610 How can You authorise your Windows Vista computer??? I do not get this drop down menu nowI cannot get this here, have been trying for hours, why is this so uncooperative? My first impression of I tunes is not so good after that.

How can you authorise your windows vista computer to play stuff you downloaded from itunes??? I cannot get this drop down menu shown on your support pages whatever I do. I have been trying for ages. This is not a good first impression.

Authorize a Mac or PC
Review the following before you authorize a computer:
You can authorize up to five computers with your Apple ID.
You must authorize your computer to download past purchases, use Home Sharing, or use the Automatic Downloads setting.
You can play unprotected music that's in the AAC file format without authorizing your computer. This includes iTunes Plus tracks and content from sources other than the iTunes Store, like your audio CDs.
To authorize a computer, follow these steps:
Open iTunes.
Choose Store > Authorize This Computer from the menu bar.
You may need to show the menu bar to see this option in Windows. In earlier versions of iTunes, you can access this option from the Advanced menu.
Enter your Apple ID and click Authorize.
If your Apple ID uses an expired MobileMe account, you can still authorize your computer.
In some cases, iTunes may ask you to authorize the computer again. iTunes should use the same authorization as before if the computer is in your list of authorized computers.
Learn what to do if iTunes repeatedly asks you to authorize when you try to play your content.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
Note : If you are Unable to see the Store Tab on your iTunes then click anywhere on your iTunes and press
Ctrl + B key on your keyboard once and you should be able to see the Store tab in your iTunes.

Merry Christmas, My "New" PB, First Impressions...

My first post and first Mac:
Not new to computers, but new to Macs. As a rule, I try to help other users as at least as much as the help I receive. That won't be the case on this forum, as I'm a total Mac noob. Perhaps, as time passes, I'll be able to field simple questions, but that may take a while.
This Christmas we replaced our son's two year old PB with an MBP. We got the hand-me-down. We wouldn't even own a Mac, except it's required by his college for digital design. This is also my first notebook, so I guess many issues are unique to that fact.
After one day of ownership, I've had the following observations:
1. During file transfer over airport, application "locked up", or was "unresponsive". My son used the equivalent of the Windows Task Manager to close it.
2. iTunes was unusable because, "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder." Resolved by changing properties of... something, didn't get the full story yet, but it has to do with changing administrator of the computer.
3. Bluetooth does not have A2DP protocol... bummer!
4. Saw the DVD unable to be ejected from his MBP during OS installation. Sheesh!
Well, that's it so far. I will be back with questions, because he'll be going back to school in a couple weeks. I generally find answers via Google, but sometimes that's not enough. My first impressions are a little disappointing, but maybe that's because I've heard too much hype, such as "It Just Works", and "Switch to a Mac and You'll Never Go Back". I own it, now I'm gonna use it by hook or by crook!

One other point I forgot to mention was regarding the rubber feet on the bottom. One was lost, so my son removed a second in order for it to sit level. Online, I found the price of replacements at $20.00! I'm using a couple old mouse feet in the mean time, but is there not an aftermarket source for such items at a reasonable price?
Probably not, but who cares? If you can let go of having to have the exact size, thickness, and material, you can do what I've done for years: Go to your neighborhood hardware store or drugstore and pick up a $1 sheet of little self-adhesive rubber feet. There are many kinds, of course, mostly hovering around one dollar for more than you'll ever need. The ones I picked are clear, so no one notices they don't quite match, and thicker, so they absorb shock better and raise the back another millimeter or two for better bottom ventilation, and they "grab" better so the laptop no longer slides around with a slight nudge. These are actually better than the original equipment feet.

...I can't wait to see what iTunes does with this 4GB of MP3's.
My PowerBook G4 has 13.29GB of music in iTunes, doesn't seem to be any problem. On the Mac Pro I've got 30GB of audio and video.

T500 first impressions and questions

I just received my computer this afternoon and I have been playing with it for the last couple
of hours. I thought I would share my first impressions:
Like I have been told, the build quality seems solid and quite impressive.
I am surprised by how much I like the simple, dated appearance of the notebook. The
off center screen isn't something that I find noticeable. And although I don't like how much
the 9 cell battery sticks out the back, it is one of those things where the performance
is worth the price. All in all, I feel that the appearance is very discreet.
I don't like that there are only 3 USB ports, but I knew what I was getting into. I didn't realize
how close together they are and I hope that I don't run into problems when I need to plug
multiple items in.
Thus far, the system runs extremely quiet and quite cool.
The startup/shutdown is much slower than I thought it would be (windows vista, SSD,GHz)
but I haven't really tried to optimize it because I am waiting for the arrival of my windows 7
disk. I just anticipated a faster and more responsive boot/load/etc time with the build
specs I chose.
I do not find that there is any noticeable flex in my keyboard. I obviously haven't used it much,
but so far so good. I was surprised by how small the touchpad area is, but I hope that is something
I get used to and something that is balanced out by the touchpoint technology.
I haven't tried to watch or listen to anything yet so I don't really know how I feel about that
aspect.
I still haven't figured out many of the intricacies and options presumably because I come
from using XP (which I regret not downgrading to) and am also not used to business class
laptops.
I was wondering what the best way to get the gunk left behind after the removal of the windows vista sticks offer?
Am I correct in assuming that I can use the fingerprint reader as my master password for firefox?
If so, is there an easy to follow guide that someone can link me to? I have tried to look it up, but
haven't encountered anything that has been too helpful. I am not extremely proficient when it comes
to setting up these types of things.

I know that I also responded to your other posting on this matter, but especially during video playback you can improve the colors quite a bit using the video drivers options.

You may have noticed my other post about the display. I am overwhelmingly disappointed.
I brought it to a non-discerning friend for a second opinion and after watching a short
amount of video and looking at a couple of pictures side by side with other computers
she seconded the extreme lack of quality.
One of the video clips involved a lady with blond hair and my friend noted that on the t500
her hair appeared almost white because of the lack of colour

17" MBP - First Impressions

I'm not really a review geek, but as I've been interested in the performance of this model (as are others) and since I already own a MBP 2G and a 20" iMac, I figured I'd just give you peeps a quick first impression.
I got my hands on a 17" MBP last night. I should have written this fresh last evening, but I was dead tired. Anyway, here's what I recall:
Config was 2G RAM, 120GB HD. I had an opportunity to do a few things with it. This was a social setting and an iPod swap, so I didn't really have an opportunity to run everything through it's paces.
As it wasn't my machine, I didn't have a copy of anything graphic/CPU intensive (like a nice nasty PPC photoshop session) to install and really give it a beating, however I put a copy of Handbrake on it and did a DVD conversion while also on Safari, with iTunes open and using iSquint to convert the video output of a recent surf session to H.264 for iPod.
I had it side-by-side with my old G4 17" (did not have my 2G MBP with me at the time, so this review is a bit slanted and it's not fair for me to try and "remember" last night's thoughts and compare now with my current MBP except in a few instances (and hey, I'd been drinking).
It connected via the home ethernet seemlessly, instantly and connection speeds were on par with every other machine running in the house.
I found the screen res and overall appearance to be much better than my G4 17."
Encoding FPS versus what I get for my 20" iMac were on par - with all apps running as outlined above.
I tested all the standard iLife apps, everything was snappy off the dock and worked well.
Speaker sound was superior to my G4.
No sticky keys. When prompted, paired with a wireless mouse with no issues.
Heat? What heat. My G4 was hotter just sitting there. I picked them both up a few times and did the lap test. The total time both were running (both idle and testing) was about 2 hours. Both machines were on a wooden kitchen table. Home temp was around 62 degrees give or take.
Battery life was not tested, as we were plugged in.
Whine? Silent as a Church mouse. Typical drive noise when inserting a DVD, but nothing abnormal. I honestly could not hear the fans or drives at all. My G4 is pretty silent and the MBP was no different.
Overall quality? It seems better constructed than my current MBP, but that comment might be skewed as I was just happy to play around with it. But I did open and close the screen, walked around with it a bit, and it seems more "solid" than my current MBP.
Not sure what else anyone wants to know.

—"I would like to know more about the heat - underneath? top? keyboard? You say that your G4 17" was hotter just sitting there - were the 17" G4s considered hot? Just trying to get a sense of it...."—
I've tested my latest 17" PB after this thread... the processor bottomside was 40 C when idle, and went up to 61.8 C after 10 mins at max processor load.
I guess that's OK if you ask me...

IPad 2 first impressions

First off I would like to state that I have no question.
I got my iPad today and have been setting it up and playing with it on/off for the last 5 to 6 hours. I actually had wanted to buy an iPad since it was introduced a year ago. I waited because of the experience that I had with purchasing the 1st generation MacBook Air, which was a in my opinion was a disaster. Even though the 1st gen iPad is a fine tablet, I am glad that I had waited.
Everything seems to be fine with this iPad.
No WiFi problems
No display issues
No AirPrint problems
No AirPlay problems (to AppleTV 2)
No Home Sharing problems
I haven't tried the 3G service yet, but I have tried pretty much everything else.
Photos look great, video is great, and Netflix works really well.
I really like the looks, feel and functionality of this tablet.
The only thing I would like to see upgraded is the cameras.
They don't have to be great, but they should be better than what they are currently.
Now if we could get all the websites to convert their flash to html5 all would be great.
Then I could get rid of my laptop and just have a tablet and a desktop.

My first impression of the iFad II was dismal. Stuck pixels and lots of light bleeding around the edges, even with the level at or below 50%.
I did not like the design of the unit - it's light weight, and the distribution of that weight makes the unit "feel" like with will fall out of your hands very easily.
I took mine back and got a refund for the quality control issues, and then I went to Verizon Store and bought an iFad I - 32g Wifi for $399. The 16g was $299. ATT has a sale for the 64g model at $529 (on-line only).
Those prices listed above make the unit finally worth buying given the functionality.
I am not an Apple basher, been here since 85', but the new iFad II leaves a lot to be desired in many areas....
Also spoke with someone at Apple Care and in the Tech department, and they said that Apple has ceased production of the iFad II model because of the quality control issues I listed above. They said that the factory will resume shipping on April 21st after these issue are fixed.
Just reporting what was said to me . . . .

Lenovo ThinkPad T430s - first impressions and issues

I bought ThinkPad T430s last week and just wanted to write down my thoughts, first impressions and the issues I ran into.
I am very pleased with the laptop in terms of hardware - solid and nice build quality, understated style and (relatively) light weight. The screen is sharp, sound is good enough for me (I am no audiophile) and I am getting used to the chiclet keyboard - which feels just a little springy.
But I am not pleased with the software. There is just too much bloatware on the system and some of it is hard to get rid of.
SugarSync
Evernote
Lenovo MyCloud
VeriSign VIP Access
Intel AppUp
and the biggest offender - Lenovo SimpleTap -- You can't get rid of the SimpleTap without uninstalling the individual apps first.
It would be nice if the system showed a dialog box that said "Hey, here are some cool apps we highly recommend and you may want to look at", instead of pre-installing all these stupid apps.
On top of that I ran into the Windows updates failing issue.
So I ended up specnding 4+ hours just to get the system right.
Lenovo and Microsoft need to understand that they need to deliver an excellent and functional experience to users and not push any stupid system that they have come up with just to make an extra buck.
Look at Apple products. People love Apple products (I don't, but I do admire them) because of the simple and functional experience they provide.
In short install just what is necessary. You can let users know that there are other goof programs but leave it up to the users.

Thanks for your response ThorsHammer.
In fact that is exactly what I am going to do this weekend.
I am in the middle of posting another message asking for recommendations and experience on the absolute minimum I can get away with.
Right now I am thinking Windows 7, System Update and Power Manager.
In my case, I installed the following:
Windows 7
Intel chipset drivers
Intel WIFI driver (wifi driver only)
Intel Ethernet driver
Lenovo Power Management driver
Lenovo Power Manager
Optimus video drivers for Intel HD 4000 and NVIDIA 5200M
RealTek audio driver - I think this also installed Dolby Home Theater v4
Ricoh Media driver
Lenovo Ultranav driver
Webcam driver
I don't install much more than that. I like to manually check the download areas for updates so I don't install Lenovo ThinkPad System Update.

First 'impression' of Safari 3.0 Beta in the first 5 minuites of use.

I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium and just downloaded Safari 3.0 for Windows Public Beta (Not included Quicktime)
The installation is processed smoothly.
I used it 5 minuites and my first impression is nothing but BUGs BUGs BUGs.
Alway Crash:
1. When click anything concerning Bookmarks, Safari crashes. (In other word, cannot use Bookmarks.)
2. When fill in any form, Safari crashes.
3. When access any pages with Javascript, Safari crashes.
Sometime Crash:
1. When access some pages, Safari randomly crashes. Ordinary pages such as this website itself. The symtom is both CPU core work reach 100% and needed to restart computer.
2. Randomly show message like "file not found, need reinstall." in any page, of course, even this page.
Bugs:
1. Cannot click on the button on the taskbar to minimize.
2. When minimize and restore, the Safari window going in restore down state.
3. Memory leak as I monitering RAM usage: increases more than 100MB when open Safari.
4. Font smoothing shows almost illegible.
Let down function:
1. Safari 3.0 for Windows Public Beta is the slowest web browser among all of browsers in my notebook. (IE7, Firefox, Opera, Cameleon Browser.)
STOP! saying "This is just a BETA!".
I love to test beta software and report bugs. I'm not a techical geeks so my testing method is to use them just as I always use in everyday life. No tweak or special use I squeesh to the program. I understand the BETA is not FINAL and of course, have more bugs than FINAL.
But this is not what I call bugs. I call "cannot be used."
How can you guy call this "PUBLIC" Beta? Have your programmer even see it in action in Windows before release to public?
This application is the second Apple application I experienced. (The first is iTunes.) It totally let me down because when compare with Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1 I tested last year, Safari 3.0 Public Beta is not in my sight.
How can you apply guy convince me that Apple is better than Microsoft since I compare just an essential small program and found no pros, even both are in beta state?

Downgrading via Archive and install is notoriously unreliable. It is much safer to simply retrieve your backup you made before you installed the update after an erase and install. Of course you make at least two backups. Selective file recovery may be in order, such as found in migrating from PowerPC to Intel Macs:

I updated my OS from 10.6.4., to 10.8.2 I want to buy iDVD and I Movie, but bought iPhoto and can't get it to work yet. Hesistant to buy the others without now having the original applications on my laptop. Do I need to buy the older versions first?

I updated my OS from 10.6.4., to 10.8.2. I want to buy iDVD and iMovie, but I bought iPhoto and can't get it to work yet. I'm hesitant to buy the others without now having the original applications on my laptop. Do I need to buy the older versions first? They are probably on my Snow Leopard install disc, but I am now running Mt Lion that I bought, and downloaded a few days ago...so I don't want to insert the old OS disc, thinking it might want to reinstall the old OS... Thanks,

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
