Re: CS5 and LR4 slowing down machine

Chris, what Ronni has posted is what actually happens when you purchase Adobe products. You won't have to redownload it. 8 gig of RAM works fine on both my Macs with Lighroom 4 and I have 24 and 36 megapixel cameras with very large file sizes. My Mac mini has the same specs as yours. But, I am r

Re: CS5 and LR4 slowing down machine

Hi Ronnie Thanks heaps for your very useful reply. The link has led me to many others that describe what I need to do to improve performance. On the purchase front, I rang Adobe and was directed to someone in India!! Couldnt really understand what was said, so not much happened as you can ima

Arrr sorry. I don't go past the first click as on my iPhone.. Guessing the iTunes link didn't work either? Strange as one of the MU comments was 27th August 2012. If I turn anything up I'll let you know, if not solved already. Kind regards Daniel Sent from my iPhone 4s --- Daniel Kerr Mac

As always, CNET is the biggest load of rubbish around. Like you said, it's just a maze of "throw it in your face" garbage…. Woe the day they bought Versiontracker and then destroyed it. I always find if anything ever points me to CNet I just look for the name of the program and jump over to MacU

Does it really have to be this hard…or is it just me?

CNET Reviews has an article about a interesting little free app that I certainly would find useful (I am the worst at taking my own advice when it comes to cluttered desktops, as regular WAMUG attenders well know) so I am quite anxious to try it out: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-5750100

Re: battery not charging

Hi Pete, A charge cycle means using ALL of the battery’s power, but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge. For instance, you could use your notebook for an hour or more one day, using half its power, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as

Re: battery not charging

It's a great little app the coconut one. Just checked MacBook belonging to SWMBO, it's done 453 cycles and still performs well. Min 2 hours from unhooking off power. Just a question, is a "cycle" counted whenever it drops below 100%? So if it goes 100% down to say 95% then back to 100%, does t

Re: battery not charging

Hi Yvonne, You should still have battery cycles to go, normally your model MBP should get 300+ cycles. Apple guarantee the battery to 300 cycles. Did you reset the SMC as I mentioned previously? I would get the battery 'serviced' at an Ap

CS5 and LR4 slowing down machine

Hi Muggers I have a couple of questions I thought someone might know the answer to: I have been working with a downloaded demo of LR4.1 with my photoshop CS5 learning how to use both together with some of my photos. Each time LR4 loads a screen appears asking if I want to buy a serial number, w

Hi Yvonne, Download CoconutBattery and check the cycle count. The “Service Battery” alert in almost every case means the battery needs to be replaced with a new one. In some circumstances though, if the battery still works fine but Mac OS X is re
