Aperture 3 runs as a 64-bit application on Mac OS X Snow Leopard on Macs with Intel Core 2 Duo processors.Does that mean that Aperture 3 won't run as a 64-bit app under OSX.6 on quad-core machines (like the top-of-the-line i5 iMac)? They can't be serious!
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have observed the tech specs on numerous models of MacBook Pro, but it says nothing about 2nd generation processors. I assumed that they did have 2nd gen processors as the image they use to advertise the processor is for the 2nd gen series of Intel core processors. I just wanted to confirm this belief.

AMD IGP is twice as fast in games.
In HTML 5.0 benchmark, AMD is 10 times faster.
Interesting to consider for the MBP 13 next year if the cpu is faster than the C2D.
I run safari and am browsing then notice the screen at that moment slides a little to the right with a replica behind it then slides back like a flicker. I can't reproduce it. Also my screen will suddenly enlarge (in any application) yet the zoom feature is off in system prefs - universal access - seeing - zoom.

I have an iMac and MacBook Pro, both have Snow Leopard. I use Carbon Copy Cloner but only to back up the iMac to an external drive. I do not want to create a bootbale drive of the laptop (not enough space in the external hard drive).What I want to do is ocassionally copy files from the laptop to the iMac. I know how to do this via sharing but sharing does not really let me back up only new files. In other words, upon my periodic file copying backup from laptop to iMac, I would like whatever tool or app or program or Mac feature you may suggest to detecte which files already exist in the iMac. So, pretty much the same thing CCC does but not a bootable drive, just copy files. I also want to create a file copy back up of some of the applications in the latop. I dont think drag and drop or sharing would work for this. Really, I would be satisfied with some kind of snapshot if you will of the applications and versions in the laptop.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe ivy bridge processors are coming out soon (or may already be out). I have heard that macbook pro 13" models might be able to use the new processers due to their lower energy useage. I presume that I will be able to take my mac to an apple store and have it installed. Is this information true?

I can't seem to find the incredibly valuable "bounce email" feature in Mail any more. Its is such a great tool for stopping spam. It used to be available as an icon you could pull onto the toolbar, but its not there anymore. Is it gone or just moved someplace else.If its gone, Apple, please bring it back.

I recently acquired a used G5. When I look at "about this mac", it tells me that I have a two processor, 2ghz machine but when I open the case I only see one G5 icon. The serial number is from late 2005. I just wanted to make sure that I have two processors as I'm planning on selling/trading up to a mac pro.
View 7 Replies View RelatedAll I can find is an old article that details how to get the 2ghz quad core processors into a Mac Pro. Any reports on using the newer processors in the 1st gen Mac Pro 2.66?
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo the new MacBook Pro 17" can have 8GB ram and New MacBook Pro 15" can't anyone figured out way it is that way, cuz only difference I can tell is the new processors but those don't matter with memory it is the chip and as far as I can tell is the same unless apple is not saying something. I don't have $1200 for 8GB of Ram anyway, but be nice to know my new MBP 15" in a year when the prices are lower can have 8GB Ram.
View 21 Replies View RelatedI'm about a year into the Mac platform after switching from pc. My first Mac was a 17" MBP and I'm looking to get a Mac Pro. Like most I'm waiting to see when the new ones will come out. I have always been curious and just wanted to know can the processors be swapped out like on a pc? I realize this involves mother board issues and whatnot but the processors we're waiting for are the same ones that can be purchased by anyone. I always wondered why someone with say a 2008 Mac Pro could not just simply swap out the processors since the tower itself is still the same. Again, I'm fairly new but just was wondering if anyone knew the answer (s). Thanks again for any insight as I'm trying to really learn and understand the Mac system under the hood so to speak.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am looking into getting a new mac. I am a photographer and my major concern/application is Photoshop. At this point in time apple will be releasing (soon I hope) new models. When they come out, I believe I will have the choice of finding the current models somewhere or getting the just released products. Money is a little bit of an issue. I would like to keep as much of mine as possible and give apple as little as I can. That being said I have no problem investing what I need to. I just don't want to waste on something that isn't going to give me any real gain. Like i said I mostly use photoshop. will photoshops usage of multiple processors equal the cost or should I save the money. Purchase the a quad or what ever they release ( 6 core) and put the money saved into memory and ssd drives or drives.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was recently given a non working G5 dual 2.5ghz machine. It is a quad core machine with the Delphi liquid cooling system. After some investigating I found it had a coolant leak. All the fans and lights come on as well as the bootup �chime�. I think (hoping) that the motherboard and power supply are still good. My question is this:
Can I use different processors on this motherboard? Lets say a dual 2.5ghz non-quad core processor assembly. Am I making sense? I am very new to the Mac world and would appreciate any help on this issue.
Can you upgrade the processors in the new Mac Pro's in the future if you choose to?
I have seen a couple people mention to but the 2.6 for now and upgrade them in the future when the price of the processors drops.
I didn't know if I was misinterpreting what they were writing.
Which would be faster and why?
Two 3.0GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors
One 2.93GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
I have the option to buy the first one (used) for $1,900 OR buy the 2nd one brand new from for $2,999
If I purchase an i5 or i7 iMac in a years time could the processor be swapped for a faster i5 or i7.
I know the iMac take part looks hard but it can be done so can the processor be popped out and replaced?
Today I ran msconfig and checked out the the boot tab.. I saw I had only 1 processor selected (default) there for booting. Does changing it to 2 processors help overall booting and general performance? I am on MBA Rev B and my bootcamp partition has win 7 Profesional 64 bit.

View 18 Replies View RelatedI just ordered a Mac Pro with Two 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 2G of memory, 2 500G hard drives and I am wondering it is possible to upgrade it to 3.2GHz more cost effectively then buying it from apple directly during the purchase of a computer or even post purchase?
Also my unit came with 2 500G HD's, this comp is the lifeline for my webstore, web design and storage for all my personal stuff. So i am wondering if I should just buy 2 more 500G drives for roughly 80-90 a drive(memoryamerica.com) and a Raid Card to back up the first 2 500G drives or just buy a Western Digital 1 or 2 TB external OR buy a 1TB Time capsule.
The sole reason for the external or extra internal drives is in case the first 2 500G drives fail I don't lose any data.
Lastly, I bought the basic ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB card to run two monitors(one for the webstore, one for web design, photoshop and Adium or anything else I would use on the daily). I plan on putting in as BR drive(i know Leopard does not support it) but I was looking to use it for burning BR movies, and if need be run MV(microsoft Vista) to view/copy and burn BR movies(the two screens I am getting are HDCP), i am afraid this card does not support 1080P BR data, does any one know which one will?
I have talked to a Mac Genius and got no real info do to me wanting to use non Apple components IE non apple supplied HD's, memory(buying a 8G memory kit from Memoryamerica.com to reach 10G of memory) and BR drive and Dell Monitors(more cost effective and supports HDCP/BR)....
after patiently awaiting to upgrade to the 2009 MP, I'm not sure I'm going to take the plunge. I had read here of people dropping in the quad core processors into the dual core 2.66 Mac Pros. I'd be willing to explore this instead but am having a hard time finding this on Google. Does anyone have any firsthand experience or links? After being a Mac person from the beginning, I think that it is interesting the current frustration in the value of the hardware that was last evident during the time of the clones... We all remember how Apple did during that time
View 5 Replies View RelatedI noticed that with the new dell precisions workstations that the standard configuration is as a server, not really a desktop which made me wonder what advantages server grade machines offer over desktop machines.
With the Mac Pros, one of the reasons why they are so expensive (well, a lot of the reason why) is because they use processors that intel created for servers and workstations as opposed to desktop computers. What is the advantage of these processors over your typical desktop processors?
(and are all the Mac Pros using server grade processors?)
I'm just wanting a free word processor for OS 9. I was happy using Bean on my white iBook, but I now have a Clamshell iBook that I've designated as my OS 9 machine.
I want something that can stand to a standard file type that will be lossless when it comes to sizing and formatting. I understand there were a lot of HTML-based editors back in those days :P but I don't want to have to deal with converting.
More specifically, I'd like something like WriteRoom! Something that takes over your entire display for nothing but a mere word processor.
Free is the name of the game, so what have you got?
I'm a little confused of some of the options with Westmere. I was reading the features page on the Mac Pro site and Apple states:�Westmere� is available in both quad-core and 6-core versions, and the Mac Pro comes with either one or two processorsI thought Westmere started at 6 cores in a single processor configuration? I then went to the tech specs page and under "Processor upgrade options", it only shows the quad cores as "Nehalem".So is there such thing as a Westmere quad? Or is this just a goof up from Apple? If there is a quad version, might anyone more knowledgeable in processors know what might be a predictable BTO price would be from Apple? And if this might use the newer 1333Mhz RAM?
