editing

I do very minor video and photo editing for my family and my son does some for his YouTube channel. Not in 4k. Since the 21.5” iMac I want isn’t upgradable I’m getting 16gb with 552ssd. Is that sufficient enough RAM?

so I plan on getting a mid 2010 MacBook Pro and An older iPad for $550. I don’t know what iPad nor do I really care because I’m getting it mainly for the MacBook. The specs of the MacBook are as follows 15” display 2TB HDD 2.40 gHz intel core i5 8GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Ram Nvidia Geforce GT 330m...

Hey guys, Hope to find here some help. Does anyone here use their 13" MBP TB 2016/2017 for video editing in FCPX? How is your experience? Background: Never had a mac. Very interesting in buying one to start doing some YouTube videos (or called video essays). I probably dont need...

Hey, how are you guys doing? I'm a video editor (starting out) and beginner music producer. I work with Adobe CC programs. Im looking to buy a 2017 27 inch iMac. I have a budget of about 2700€ / 3000$. I'll be crying when I spend it because it took so long to earn that money but hopefully the...

Hi everyone! I am looking to get a new MacBook Pro and was interested in getting other people's opinion. I've already looked in other places to see what people advices on getting for what I usually do on my computer, but they generally answer from a perspective of the MacBook Pro being used...

I've been deaf to all the users making their Mac Pro's new again with Nvidia 9xxx series cards. I recently purchased a used ("seller refurbished") card off of Ebay from a guy in New York who allegedly buys "off-leased and some from our vendor with flashing service." I seriously am new to this —...

I have started to notice that editing Live Photos on Mac under certain, but not rare configurations can cause Live Photos edits to have incorrect, distorted zooms that can also be seen across devices. I have submitted bug report, but wondering if anyone here is having the same issue. Wrong...

Hi guys! I'm sorry if this is noob-like, but I'm not too knowledgable on processors for video editing, so could do with some pointers. I currently use Final Cut X to edit 4K video on my mid-2010 Mac Pro (big silver tower). I have a Quad Core Xeon 2.8GHz with 16GB RAM and a Radeon HD5770...

I feel like this always happens. But every time I update to the most recent OS for the macbook, my macbook is unable to recognize my external HD. So my only choice is to go on my brother's windows computer and transfer all of my files and then reformat the whole HD so that my macbook can read it...

This is my answer. If Imac haven't an update 27th then we almost see maybe an upgrade of RAM in existing models, or maybe a decrease of SSD option?... I'm waiting for Imac update for 3 months, but I can't wait any more for my job, 27th I'll buy a 27"Imac i7 2TB m390. This will be a good option...

Hi! can anybody recommend a free and simple photo/design program to run on El Capitan? All I need to do is crop, resize, and layer a bunch of little images onto a single page, to then print and cut out (we're making our own stickers :)) I used Photoshop CS3 before buying a new computer with a...

I'm looking at transitioning from a windows to a mac and have been doing a lot of research on which model would suit me best. I'm mainly investing in a mac for the video/photo editing programs and as a student I also have a limited budget. I want something that can easily run programs such as...

Hi guys, I'm about to embark on some multi-camera 4k video interviews. 3 cameras all shooting in 4K. Right now all I have is a late 2010 Mac Pro, which DOES NOT support thunderbolt. I am proficient with Final Cut and will be using that as my NLE. I'm well up for upgrading to a new system...

Does anyone know if you have a VERY video editing in Final Cut Pro X, can you select a certain section to burn to a DVD? I only ask because I have a VERY long video that is too long for 1 DVD and I don't have enough space to save a video file in the high quality I want. So I want to split the...

Hey everyone, Sorry if this comes off as a bit newbish, but that's what it kind of is. My iMac is from 2008 and it has become kind of a dinosaur and is pretty much no good for anything more than managing iTunes and surfing the web. Editing and creating video projects, etc. has become a big...

In the last couple of weeks, people have reported being unable to alter the Word files I send them, which has previously not been a problem. I have made no changes to any Word prefs so I figure it must be due to an OS update. I've checked the properties on the docs and they are not checked "read...

I've just purchased a 2012 cMBP (15" i7 2.6MHz/16GB/750GB) to replace my 2012 rMBP (15" i7 2.7/16/768). I did it because I've been using an external HD and found it sometimes slow and and inconvenient. The cMBP came with a 750GB HD but I'm going to replace it with a SSD. However, I may also put...

I'm currently EDC a 2010 13.3 2.4ghz MacBook Pro that when shaken a little too hard the WiFi card stops working. Out of warranty and Apple Care, I'm looking at upgrading to either an iPad pro and an iMac 4K for at home or a MacBook Pro that can satisfy my needs. For the most part I'll be doing...

Hey guys, I've landed a really cool job covering an event in Europe in as close to real time as possible and I am just trying to figure out the best workflow. Looking to pick the brains of anyone that has done anything similar? So far my ideas are as follows: 3 x shooters covering various...

I'm sure this question has been asked many times before, I just can't seem to find what I am looking for... I edit videos for fun mostly that I take in 1080p with a DSLR and a go pro. I want to make the change to a MacBook Pro and was wanting to hear your experiences with video editing on the...
