New HD graphics for mac beginning of 2008 pro card and a new screen
Hi, I am looking to update my HD graphics card and buy a new HD screen, I hope you guys can help (I am based in the United Kingdom)
I see (after doing some research on this forum) that operating systems seem to be important as well anything else.
If my installation is:
-OS X 10.8.5 (must keep this for stability problems)
-Current is card ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB
-Mac model is 3.1
You are not sure if we need more information on this stuff?
I currently run a Sony BRAVIA and have other devices connected to it - Blu - Ray, Xbox. It would be great to get a new monitor too and have enough connection to have all this always running as well as the mac. I don't know if it's possible, because I don't know how the graphics cards these days above to connect to monitors.
Help on that would be great. I was able to get this old beast to keep improving in terms of storage and performance. It is the missing piece of the puzzle for me.

A lot of PC cards will work but you do not get a splash screen, but you can use your old card if necessary

It is a good list of Mac-Flash cards. Not cheap

My internal camera on my MacBook at the beginning of 2008 Pro does not work
My internal camera on my MacBook at the beginning of 2008 Pro does not work.
One of them will solve your problem of camera:
(1) If your Mac restart does not solve the problem,
(2) use http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 from Apple.
(BTW - troubleshooting section called an "iSight" camera. However, after that article was published, Apple has changed the name of the built-in camera on the recent "iSight" Macs "FaceTime", then "FaceTime HD." Whatever the name of your built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
Be sure to test several Apple app (photo booth, FaceTime, iMovie, QuickTime Player, etc.) in more than one user account. Do NOT use the 'Guest' for this test account. If you don't have more than one user account for testing, create one now. If you need help, how is explained in http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201754.
A 'Standard' user account is all you need for the tests.
(3) If your camera will work correctly even with Apple applications, use OS X Recovery to completely reinstall your Mac OS since system recovery stored on your startup disk. Don't bother test Skype or other 3rd party apps until you have your camera works with applications Apple.
(4) If none of the suggestions above resolve your issue, contact Apple or one of the Apple-Authorized Service Provider to have your Mac professionally repaired. Don't forget to back up your Mac and Deauthorize iTunes before the call for tenders for the service.

I just bought 14 elements Photoshop and Photoshop first 14 for Mac (I have an iMac OSX) and downloaded and received periodic publications related to them. But try to install it after you type the serial number, I get the message that Adobe is unable to validate the serial number. I was chatting with the support of Adobes cat, who recommended to download the two files-dog again, but with the same bad result. Can someone help me?
(1) right click on the Finder on dock icon and select the option "Go - To Folder."
(2) you will get a text box, type in below mentioned command and then press 'return './ etc
(3) it will open the etc folder, look for file named "hosts" and the same screenshot of office.
(4) double click on the Hosts file, it will open it with TextEdit.
Let me know if you see any Adobe related as entries in the Hosts file 127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com... etc?

My hard drive failed and I had to reinstall the software. After installing Photoshop CS4, he asks a SN however does not accept my SN. The number retired, but it says "In order to be eligible for an upgrade, you must show the SN for Photoshop Elements". I did have a SN for Photoshop Elements. How can I fix this and get my photoshop on my MacBook Pro software. Thank you!
If you had purchased the update serial number, it will ask for the previous qualifying version number.
In this case, better communicate with Adobe customer service and check with the question.

Whenever I try to use the arrows to change as suggested display full screen makes it worse. I have studied the subject and tried the fixes recommended as F10, optionF, etc., and nothing works. Help, please?
Make sure that you run not Firefox mode full screen (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command + SHIFT + F).
Try to remove the plist of Firefox (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).

This printer prints so fast that he NEEDS an option button fast cancel to cancel a print job. A quick solutions?
Also, sometimes when printing from a web application, the printer displays a "printing spool" minutes before it actually prints. Can it be sped up or cancelled? Still, the X on the LCD screen does not seem to work. Any thoughts on these issues?
If it only happens when you print from the Web, it could be a number of things. Could you run printing HP and doctor Scan?
You can also check and see if the Web browser that you are using requires some updates or try another browser.
Any help?

Mac OS10.6.3, SCHC card and C7180
I used my Photosmart C7180 with my CF card with great success. On another device that I use a SanDisk 8 GB SDHC card which gives me a "memory card error" when it is inserted into the printer. I uninstalled the HP files that someone else suggested and check the updates (not available) and still not get the card to be read by the printer. I can put the card into my TV and the Playstation 3 and it works fine. What can I do to fix this?
Thank you
I couldn't find THAT SDHC listed in the manual. You are probably limited to SD cards with the 7180.
