I see a significant performance boost from a most recent iMac?

I use Photoshop, Lightroom, Final Cut Pro X and Photo Mechanic 5 (not all at the same time), here are the specs on my current iMac,

If I get the new iMac.

The performance will be Ok, great, superb or OMG?

Thanks for your advice, Andy

There is certainly a change in the performance of an iMac 2009 to a new iMac. There is a noticeable difference between a 2.66 and a 3.1 processor. I have a 2009 iMac that runs more slowly all the time so I also think about the upgrade also.

I would say that great!

But if you can, visit an Apple Store and see in person the iMac.

  • Cannot transfer photos from iPhone 6s for iMac.

    Configurations:

    OS X EL Capitan - 10.11.4

    Photos App - 1.5 (370.42.0)

    iPhone iOS 6s - 9.3.1

    As you can see that I use all the stuff leading up to the most recent software available. I have seen this recently and have tried almost all the possible solutions, provided by apple support as, cable only apple, direct connection to the iMac, iPhone-imac is restarted.

    Basically when I try to copy my photos on iMac iPhone connecting to through apple cable and open the photos app in iMac. just as it was before my iPhone will appear in the import section, and from there it would begin loading photos available for importing photos from my iPhone here. But now it starts to load pictures (empty skeletons), but before he can load images iPhone disappears from the photos app, so I'm not able to transfer my photos. I know there are tons so as to move the photos to iMac, but technically it should work too (my favorite and the easiest of all).

    experience tried

    (1) I also tried with the option/alt and start iMac touch; s app photos to create a new library to see if it works this way, no luck.

    (2) the iPhone at the moment appears click on import button photos all without selecting the photos, it starts to copy some but after awhile, it fails with the iPhone in endangered and above screenshot attached failure msg.

    are there problems at pictures of mac side app or iPhone app. I keep my stuff to date so not sure when you have this problem started. I suspect it all started when I activated video 4K on my iPhone but not sure than just a speculation.

    any kind of suggestion will be useful thanks.

    Hi damdude,

    Thank you for your participation in the communities of Support from Apple.

    I see that your iPhone is not recognized by your iMac or Photos when you try to import images into your photo library. Have you tried several good troubleshooting steps. Because the same thing happens in a new library of Photos, try to import images using Image Capture -Capture of Image: transfer images and other elements of your device.

    If the same thing happens with the Image Capture, I recommend trying to import the photos to another computer, as mentioned If you can not import photos from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to your computer:

    If the same problem occurs on a different computer, restore the device and put it up as a new.

    If you need to restore your iPhone, you can save it using iCloud, so you won't lose your latest photos. Another option could backfire on iCloud photo library. For these steps, see How to back up your device using iCloud or iTunes and iCloud FAQ Photo library.

    Sincerely.

  • Performance of the queries in order to get the most recent price

    Happy new year everyone.

    I have a table of price in my system that has several awards for each product with the date, the price is entered into force.

    I have queries throughout the system to retrieve the most recent actual price for the date of the transaction.

    I can find to implement the easiest way is to have a user-defined function to collect the prize.

    My problem is that many of my questions have access to large amounts of data (for example, transactions) and my table of prices is also big enough - both have millions of records. Using a Pl/SQL function defined by the user in my query, I get a lot of switching context between SQL and PL/SQL and my questions are not well

    Here is an example of code, which simplifies my scenario:

    drop table xo_stock_trans;
    create table xo_stock_trans (item varchar2(25), trans_date date, quantity number(20,4));
    insert into xo_stock_trans values('A',TO_DATE('25-DEC-2014','DD-MON-YYYY'), 4);
    insert into xo_stock_trans values('A',TO_DATE('27-DEC-2014','DD-MON-YYYY'), -2);
    insert into xo_stock_trans values('A',TO_DATE('28-DEC-2014','DD-MON-YYYY'), 5);
    insert into xo_stock_trans values('B',TO_DATE('23-DEC-2014','DD-MON-YYYY'), 20);
    insert into xo_stock_trans values('B',TO_DATE('26-DEC-2014','DD-MON-YYYY'), -6);
    insert into xo_stock_trans values('B',TO_DATE('29-DEC-2014','DD-MON-YYYY'), 15);

    I would like to refactor my request so that I do not use the user Pl/SQL functions, but so far I can't get something that works better than the SQL above. For example, the following query is MUCH longer:

    select tr.item, tr.trans_date, tr.quantity
        , pr.gross_price
        , pr.net_price
        , pr.special_price
    from xo_stock_trans tr
    join xo_prices pr on pr.item = tr.item
                    and pr.price_date = (select max(pr2.price_date)
                                         from xo_prices pr2
                                         where pr2.item = pr.item
                                           and pr2.price_date <= tr.trans_date
                                         )
    where tr.trans_date between '01-AUG-2014' and '31-AUG-2014';
    

    I'm interested to know if anyone has addressed a similar scenario and have managed to write more efficient code.

    I looked at the determinism/manual caching of the function, but the article/date combinations are quite unique and therefore he does not benefit from him.

    Any suggestion under review - parallelism, analytical, pipeline functions, etc.

    You got that right!  User-defined functions can be very practical, but this practice comes with a price.

    What version of Oracle are you using?  The Oracle 12, there is a new feature of 'temporal validity' which may help you.

    In any version, it will be much faster if you add a new column to the xo_prices table.  You can call this end_date, although it would in fact be the date when some other prices took effect.  You might put DATE' 9999-12-31 in the column end_date for current prices.  You can calculate end_date using the analytical function of LEAD.  Be sure to re-calcluate end_date when you insert new rows into xo_prices, or when you update the dates on existing lines.

    Once you have PRICE_DATE and end_date in the XO_PRICES table, you can join this table to get the real price from d by including

    AND d > = xo_prices.price_date

    AND d< >

    in the join condition.

    In some situations, especially when you don't have much different (item, dates) combinations, scalar-sub-queries could be faster than joins.

    Whatever it is, it participates without PL/SQL, so there is no context switching.

    However, if I try to delete the last one in the list, I get a slightly different error "Are you sure you want to remove the most recent data of the file backup?"-sounds strange because it is clearly not the most recent backup according to the dates it's show.

    Of course, I can go ahead and ignore the warnings, but I fear that maybe there are some files in the last backup the value in the list that may not be right more recent set backs.

    The left pane is a "choose one". "All photos" are just that. 'G' is a different option.

    Lightroom is not a file Explorer. He knows only the drives and files that you have imported the photos of. If LR shows not all of the photos that are on your hard drive, it is because you did not import all photos.

    If LR shows you a photo in "all photos" but do not show it in the folder you think he is in, go to "all photos", select the image, right click "view in the library folder. This will show you where LR think the picture is.
