Applications :: New IMac Mini Specifications And Aperture 2
Mar 19, 2009
I am after some advice re the matching of IMac Mini spec to Aperture2. According to Aperture 2 specs, the new IMac Mini with 4GB/320GB is sufficient but it does not mention the 'NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics processor with 128MB or 256MB of DDR3' as an acceptable graphics card. Any advice from Aperture 2 users on this and if the proposed Mini spec is sufficient. I am an amateur photograher, on a limited budget, and I process mostly RAW photos. Do I need to go to IMac 2.6/2.9 to get realistic processing power?

I currently own a black Macbook which I've just sold to my sister for her to use at university and so I need to get it to her by the end of August at the latest. I'm pretty much decided on buying the 27-inch i7 from the refurb store. My uses are mainly for home entertainment (watching movies, surfing the web, using it for the occasional video edit) and I want to be able to use it for games (Steam, Starcraft II, Diablo III, etc.) I know that a.) if I'm using my Mac for games, I should get a PC. And b.) I'm probably going overkill with the i7 based on my needs. I'd like to make my $2200 last me as long as possible. Therein lies my problem, though. I'm already a bit peeved that I basically have to pay a $1000 premium to use OS X, but I hate Windows so much it's worth it to me...at the same time, I don't really want to spend more than $2200 which is why I'm taking the refurb route (which from what I've heard is not a bad way to go if you want to save a bit of money.)

I'm wondering specifically: What processor is actually inside the new IMacs. The i5 that's in the quad-core and the i7 that's in the quad-core. If anyone knows, what kind of gains are there, let's say in a benchmark test. For going for the i7 over the i5.

My iMac is really hot! That is, when I run my hand across the outside of the machine, it is warm all over, and the entire upper portion of the back is what I would call "hot" to the touch. That is, I can place my hand there for a while, but it is uncomfortable. Is this normal? I suppose there is a specification for case temps. In a more analytic vein, iStat Nano shows component temps as follows:
HD: 58
CPU A: 57
GPU: 64
GPU Diode: 68
GPU Heatsink: 64
Ambient: 31
Memory Controller: 58

Maybe i got something interesting here...
According to this pages like this one [URL]
it seems to me, that the Geforce Gt 120 (ealy 20009 Imac) is in fact an MXM III,M76XT+/256MB,GDDR3 Card, witch means, it�s an Mobility Radeon2600XT from the previous Imacs, just on an MXM III socle ( it would get better benchmarks because of cooling an higher clocks).

I've just bought Aperture 2, and during installation blithely told it to import all my 10,000 or so iphoto images. After several hours I'm just looking at it in browser view with 10,000 grey rectangles, and a little "thumbnails" flash appearing every few seconds on the bottom bar of the browser.
24" IMac 3.06 with 4GB RAM

I have recently moved from windows to the iMac and will be moving all of my photos. I do just casual, family photos and landscapes etc. Nothing professional. I have purchased Aperture for cataloging and to make it easier to find things as well as editing. There are probably experts on this out there so I am asking for recommendations on how to set things up. I used Adobe PhotoShop Elements which had an excellent tagging system, but want to move to Aperture for this.

I noticed that Aperture 3 is priced really, REALLY low on the Mac App Store. So I made the decision to buy it. But... I already have Aperture 2 installed. So what happens when I buy Aperture 3? Does it recognize that I have Aperture 2 installed, and upgrade it, or will it install Aperture 3 alongside Aperture 2?

I'm looking to spend some cash on a new camera. I'm extremely interested in the profession and I'm looking for the best dslr camera to use with aperture. I'm willing to spend 1500 on this camera.

If you are running Aperture 3 on a new iMac, please let us know your impressions. I'm specifically interested in learning if the i5's quads with 1G graphics cards are significantly better than the i3's.

Excerpted:
Quote:
OpenGL 4.0 further improves the close interoperability with OpenCL™ for accelerating computationally intensive visual applications. OpenGL 4.0 also continues support for both the Core and Compatibility profiles first introduced with OpenGL 3.2, enabling developers to use a streamlined API or retain backwards compatibility for existing OpenGL code, depending on their market needs.
OpenGL 4.0 has been specifically designed to bring significant benefits to application developers, including:
two new shader stages that enable the GPU to offload geometry tessellation from the CPU;
per-sample fragment shaders and programmable fragment shader input positions for increased rendering quality and anti-aliasing flexibility;
drawing of data generated by OpenGL, or external APIs such as OpenCL, without CPU intervention;
shader subroutines for significantly increased programming flexibility;
separation of texture state and texture data through the addition of a new object type called sampler objects;
64-bit double precision floating point shader operations and inputs/outputs for increased rendering accuracy and quality;
performance improvements, including instanced geometry shaders, instanced arrays, and a new timer query.
Lastly, Khronos has simultaneously released an OpenGL 3.3 specification, together with a set of ARB extensions, to enable as much OpenGL 4.0 functionality as possible on previous generation GPU hardware; providing maximum flexibility and platform coverage for application developers. The full OpenGL 3.3 specification is also available for immediate download at [URL]
"The release of OpenGL 4.0 is a major step forward in bringing state-of-the-art functionality to cross-platform graphics acceleration, and strengthens OpenGL's leadership position as the epicenter of 3D graphics on the web, on mobile devices as well as on the desktop," said Barthold Lichtenbelt, OpenGL ARB working group chair and senior manager Core OpenGL at NVIDIA. "NVIDIA is pleased to announce that its upcoming Fermi-based graphics accelerators will fully support OpenGL 4.0 at launch."
"AMD sees the release of OpenGL 4.0 as another major accomplishment for the OpenGL ARB," said Ben Bar-Haim, vice president of design engineering at AMD. "AMD contributes to the Khronos workgroups, and we consistently find that Khronos is successful at developing healthy, thriving, and evolving open standards such as OpenGL and OpenCL."
"OpenGL 4.0 continues the ARB's schedule-driven roll-out of new functionality, and this significant major release enables developers to access leading-edge GPU functionality across multiple platforms with full backwards compatibility," said Neil Trevett, president of the Khronos Group and vice president at NVIDIA. "OpenGL continues to be a keystone in the Khronos API ecosystem, through driving innovation into OpenGL ES and WebGL™ to bring high-performance programmable graphics to mobile platforms and the Web, and by interoperating with OpenCL to create a seamless visual and compute platform for application developers."

I just bought a new iMac and moved all my data in from a Time Capsule. I frequently select "all images" and use the Quick Fixes option within Add Effect under the photos tab on the top left corner of the screen to run a batch process. But now when I try it all of the options are grayed out. I can highlight a couple of images and the option is available where normally running a batch is a non-issue.

I know I'm a recovering PC user. Vista ran me away from PCs for good. Actually, constant crashes and the gift of an antique iBook got me off of PCs. I now have the old beat up iBook and one of those aluminum iMacs. I know also that the iMac is apparently rather looked down on, but really, it was almost perfect for me: it's like the world's nicest lap top, only not portable. At any rate, I had a major issue with a Safari update on my iBook (which I had affectionately dubbed "the Road Apple" until I learned that this is something of an insult amongst Mac users.) At any rate, the battery is really on it's absolute last legs on my venerable machine, and I'd like learning what this thing is so that I can begin the hunt for a battery.
All I can really say right now (because I don't know what to look for or what to tell you) is that it's a clamshell with a nifty built-in handle, it's white with fluorescent green "trim (?) and a white keyboard. It features a _bizarre_ power adapter that I have learned is referred to as a "yo-yo."
The "About this Mac" button gives me this:
Mac OSX 10.4.11
Processor 466 MHZ PowerPC G3
Memory 576 MB
When I click "more info," it tells me this:
Machine name: iBook
Machine Model: PowerBook 2,2 [yes; it's a comma]
CPU Type: PowerPC 750 (22.2) [a period; not a comma]
Number of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 467 MHz
L2 Cache (per CPU) 256 KB
Memory: 576 MB
Bus Speed: 67 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 3.3.3f3
Then there's the serial number and the Sales Order Number. Is there anyone who can give some idea of just what of all this I need to know to battery shop, and maybe some idea of the actual vintage of this machine? I'm sure it's old and outdated, but I _love_ this thing; it's stood me in great stead for some time now, and even though I _know_ those hardware specs are decrepit (at least from a PC perspective), this thing has consistently outperformed my PC (except in speed, but again: low numbers) and still outperforms my wife's new PC-based Dell netbook in everything but graphics.

Configured Mail in 10.4.11 to iCloud specifications and get error messages and still cannot send and receive. Get error messages, "does not recognize password" etc. Have working on Snow Leopard, iPhone iPad but not 10.4.11 PPC Mail. I used Apple support set up. I originally had a .mac account and have tried both XXXX@mac.com and xxx.me.com as username. I Upgraded my password to stronger suggested strength. (one cap and one letter minimum 8) I verified Keychain. I have even deleted everything including Keychain and account and started over numerous times, still no joy. Ports are incoming 993 and outgoing 587. Will not be upgrading this machine due to production software issues but was told I could stll use the .mac email
