I have a Mini 2011 that I want to update to an SSD. My first concern is, how easy is it to install an operating system to the new drive? This was recommended before migrating content from the old drive. Second, which have you used or would recommend, Crucial or OWC SSD? Thanks in advance!

Hi all, I have been trying to install Wave Agent on my Mac with the following results: This package is incompatible with this version of macOS. Has anyone encountered this, and is there a workaround or a newer version available somewhere? What comes up to install from Sound Devices seems to be dated 2014, which of course is long before the advent of Apple silicon chips. The reason I would like to have Wave agent working is to split poly files into their mono components for simpler uploading. Best regards, Jim Rillie Production Sound Mixer

Hello everyone, Many of us wanted use the large venue frequency coordination software, Intermodulation Analysis System, on our Macs (some of us resorting to VMWare to do so). And now we can! A recent update to the popular MacOS/Linux utilities, Wine and Wineskin, which are used to run windows programs, has enabled near full functionality of IAS on a Mac computer. I have posted a guide to install it at this link: http://newendian.com/index.php?title=IAS_for_Mac The only major thing that doesn't work (that I've found), is the intermod product graphs at the bottom of the screen. A proper license is of course required (some people may need to contact Professional Wi…

So, I have been using Apple products since 1998, when I bought a G3 to run Cubase VST for music production. Love most of their stuff in general. Now, iOS 6. (more like pOS 6) I did the update last night and really wish I could go back to the previous version. Why? - The Maps App sucks. No street view, stuff missing/wrong etc. - Crashing !!! Almost never had this happen to my iPhone before. Simple things, such as moving an app to a different place on the dashboard restarts the phone (wtf!?!) -Passbook - maybe I'm missing something, but the only thing that happens when I open this app is nothing. The one and only button that says "App Store" opens A…

Anyone tried Movie Slate on IOS7 yet? Their site says they've been working on an IOS7 version all summer, but it doesn't seem to be out yet. I'm wondering if the current version works well on 7?

Hi all, I´m building a bag for doco work where using an Ipad hardwired to Tc out of the 664 as a TC display. I want this to replace the Betso TCD-1. I found the app to correct the ipad offset and bought the ambient cable already. So now the thing is how to grip the ipad to the front of my petrol bag (PEGZ 1). I´m thinking about an ipad case with a female slot in the back side, and sew the male part of the case to the bag. I´ve seen some iphone cases that works this way. i suppose the point is for gripping the iphone to the car´s dashboard and use it as GPS. Do any of you know if something like that exists fo the ipad?

Well, I finally have an iPad and what Scott and others have been saying for a long time is true --- this site is not compatible with the iPad!! Bummer. When you want to post a message , you can enter text in the topic Subject box but that's it --- no way to get the cursor into the message body and start typing. I tried using the "Next" button on the iPad but that just cycled through the whole text editor etc., and never arrived at body of the message. This is something I really need to look into now that I have an iPad! I will let you know what I find. Note: one of the new sites that I am considering for other purposes, and maybe to replace this site, has its ow…

I finally broke down and got my iPad2. Yes, I'm enjoying it. I am a big believer in getting a sturdy protective case for items like this. However, I'm curious how other users are carrying their iPads around; aside from a carrying bag. I've heard several horror stories of accidental drops and screen cracking. I know it's cool to carry this rather light unit around 'bare naked'. I buy the Otter Box brand. I have one protecting my HTC Evo 4G, Android phone. I've done the same for my iPad2, getting the "Defender Series" case. The cover also doubles as a support stand. You can buy it direct from Otter Box at their full price of $89.95, (over priced) or be…

OK, so I know I read somewhere that there is a difference, but I don't remember what it is. I just put a USB plug into my soundcart and it can charge most things with a USB connection, except my Iphone. What's different about the Iphone USB connection ? Anyone know if it would be the same with the Iphone 4S ?

The Wall Street Journal reports that Sprint will offer the iPhone 5 when it launches later this year, becoming the third U.S. carrier to offer the iPhone. According to the report, the iPhone 5 will launch simultaneously on Sprint, Verizon, and AT&T in "mid-October". Sprint Nextel Corp. will begin selling the iPhone 5 in mid-October, people familiar with the matter said, closing a huge hole in the No. 3 U.S. carrier's lineup and giving Apple Inc. another channel for selling its popular phone. The timing, however, indicates Apple's new iPhone will hit the market later than expected and too late to contribute to sales in the company's fiscal fourth quarter, w…

My six year old dumb phone may be on it's last leg and a replacement looks imminent. I've held off purchasing a smart phone for years because the last thing I want is a "yuppie status badge" and a carrier holding a gun to my head with their data package. Ahhh . . . I feel better getting that off my chest. That being said I know smartphones are a great tool and the time has come for me to maintain better contact with my crew members. Should I get a new iPhone5 or the iPhone 4S? Features aren't super important to me, but best value-- not necessarily cheapest cost--for technology and ease of keeping in touch are what's important. Any input greatly appreciate…

Has anyone tried any of the many external mics available for the iPhone 7 with the Lightning connector? I found a very simple audio recording app called VoiceRecorder. I like the Old School interface that looks like a cassette recorder. Do you have one that you use?

I've been on Verizon for years, so an iPhone wasn't an option till recently. Now that it is... the only holdup I have is navigation. Right now I have a DroidX, and the built-in google turn by turn nav is pretty great. I do a lot of jobs where I am in a new location every day. I can enter the job in iCal, or in Google calendar, and it will sync with my phone. When in my car I drop my phone in the car mount, click the entry in the calendar and the address is a link to launch google maps directions, with one more click and I am getting turn by turn navigation (spoken "turn right on Lincoln Drive in 300 yards"). I have not powered up my Garmin since I got my Droid X in Summer…

In case there was any doubt, The Wall Street Journal confirms that the Verizon Media Event on January 11th will feature the long rumored Verizon iPhone. The largest U.S. wireless carrier will say Tuesday that Apple Inc.'s iPhone will be available to its subscribers, according to a person familiar with the matter. The Wall Street Journal offers no additional details about when the Verizon iPhone will become available to the public.

I just love cracking myself up. If you have a Siri-enabled iPhone, ask it "Who Let the Dogs Out?" Then sit back and laugh.

So iOS 7 rolled out last night, and I made the jump and decided to put it on my iPad 2. The installation process was painful: Apple's servers were so clogged, it took the better part of 90 minutes to get the update, then wait endlessly for the device to reboot. Once I re-entered all the password information, I pulled up the new iTunes and fired up iTunes Radio... and it sounded horrible. Hideous distortion, clipped, compressed, the works, just unlistenable by any mammals on earth. Resisting the desperate urge to panic, I did a quick Google search on "iTunes Radio Distortion," and sure enough, a few hundred other people had the same problem. The solution: reboot yet ag…

This could be useful for any of us that have websites we have built with iWeb but would like to be on the Wordpress platform.
