Mac pro warranty transfer


hi,
if purchase mac pro via education store (as work in education), can set warranty under different name , address?
i'm looking purchase brother may use education discount.

i've been informed warranty set person registers system?
if purchase , give him system, can set , register in own name?

 

the apple warranty or applecare follows device, not owner. don't have transfer warranty. physical possession of device can have warranty work done on it. it's tied serial number of device, regardless of owns it.

NX5 vs EX1r - Nightclub / events shooting?


i use z1 event videography, largely in nightclubs.
low light of z1 above average (if gain set 18db - grainy tv, encoding mpg4, grain tends smoothed out not bad web). know few nightclub shooters drop shutter 1/25 leads slight stop motion look.

want new cam thats great in low light, can used handheld approx 4-6 hours on / off (collecting approx 2 hours of footage), flexible auto focus / exposure sometimes, easier put in auto if doing fast movement on dancfloor etc..id gives great hd image quality - z1 'crummy' bless hdv cotton socks.

ive used nx5 before fitness dvd shoot , beach / nightclub shooting (though havent watched footage back). have soft spot cam, 128gb module means dont have worry running out of sd cards or tapes in case of z1 set up.

nx5 vs ex1r

both great in low light - ex1r better

handheld - ex1r heavier - can overcome using left hand support, resting cam near head, rest z1 on shoulder.
ex1r - shoulder mount - there mount crowded events? ie 1 folds up, find have camera pointing avoid getting lens damage , hitting when moving around not filming.
nx5 - same z1, little bit bigger, heavier similar , can negate shoulder rig.

recording media

nx5 wins @ cost of heavily compressed avchd? 24mbs of lit environment enough tv ? bbc require min of 35mbps. ive been speaking freind making fly on wall doc, theres spoke cam used film tv.

ex1r can take 32gb sdhc cards recording 2hours? of footage @ 35mbps.
ex1r doesnt dual record memory sticks, unlike nx5 can second sd card or flash module. how reliable sd recording on ex1r? using mxm adapter of course (not sxs ones)
 

i check bbc first before buying have approved list of cameras accept footage (if plan them 1 day).

i'm trying make bejeweled-like game , figured out using class tell information jpanel me animation. however, while jpanel animate when sets game board, won't repaint jpanel ever again afterward. first time i'm drawing graphics on jpanel use jcomponent.

board class drawn , circlepiece refers each game piece you're suppose match. have written generating function previous project replaces pieces when needed. i'm trying make pieces disappear when match occurs. have searched issue, nothing tends work. doing wrong?

Siri won't recognize contact if you don't say their first and last name


let's healthcare provider's name john doe. he's in contacts list "doctor" prefix. if wanted call or text him using siri, i'd have say, "text john doe" because "text doctor doe" won't work. may not person prefix in contacts list, , telling siri he's doctor means every time "text doctor x," siri think want text dr. doe.

workaround add "doctor doe" nickname.

iBooks and Music on 2G iPod Touch??


this first post on macrumors, hope i'm putting in right place. have 8 gb 2nd-generation ipod touch (model mc086ll), loaded 4gb of assorted apps, music, ibooks, , photos, , running ios 4.2.1.

until recently, i've been able enjoy reading books in ibooks while listening music, ever since "upgraded" ibooks version 1.5, feature seems have been taken away. can launch music , song going, launch ibooks, music fades out , never comes back. hardly seems progress! music still multitasks other apps, including number of games, no longer ibooks. there way ability use ibooks , music @ same time?
 

try double clinking home button.
there music menu pops up, press play

No Wifi on Windows XP


i know recurring problem , there many other threads out there this, couldn't find match situation.

installed windows xp on macbook (2010 model, click here specs) running os 10.6.8 without problem. installed drivers os x install disc came computer.

after while tried connecting our wireless connection, after numerous attempts , trying manually set network wouldn't connect. best guess drivers, , think might fact os disk installed drivers off 10.6.4.

i'm not sure appreciated, ;d
 

it may need update windows xp recognize wpa2 encryption. running service pack 3? if not, that's best way wpa2 support xp. if are, happens when try connect?

Buying: Have...several questions.


hey guys, i'm not new lurking on these forums, i'm new member (haven't been in market new mac last 4.5 years...) i'm graphic design/animation student , i'm looking pick new computer in next few weeks here , have questions way go things!

okay, first off i'll starting 15" macbook pro 2.2 ghz i7. i'll leaving ram @ 4 gigs , plan on buying crucial 2x8gb kit upgrade 16gb total. set.

harddrive questions... thinking of several options:

1. keep stock 500gb 5400 rpm drive , upgrade third party 7200 rpm drive , take 500gb drive , put in enclosure use external drive.

2. upgrade apple's 750gb 7200 rpm option

3. leave stock 500gb drive in until ssd prices affordable.

i'll doing great deal of video/animation work, along heavy graphics , sound processing, why i'm opting 16gb of ram (crucial says these computers tested 16gb, have experience upgrade?)

i'm still unsure of way go hard drive. if guys have ideas option (or totally different one) go with, great. also, actual brands , specific hard drive upgrades familiar appreciated well.

plan on continuing troll forums looking answers these questions, figured i'd ask , jump on things! guys!

i'd go biggest bang @ fastest speed: 750gb 7200 rpm.

then, when ssd drive, you'll have nice spacious spare drive files. exact set have on laptop.
