I promised a progress post. I followed the advice you all gave me that I could, and I believe I have somewhat successfully duplicated and backed up my files and system to the Glyph firewire drive, a USB flash drive and a G4 powerbook. The files open wierd on the G5, but I can get it to work. I also ...

First of all, thank you all for taking your time to reply.

I believe I was on the wrong track. I have some homework to do. Disaster averted. I'll post a short progress note when I'm sure I'm on the right track. I'll also try a more thorough search.

Hello. Basic question here. I've been struggling a bit with updating my system and before I update OS 10.3.9 to 10.5.6 on my older power mac G5 I wanted to back up my system because of all the work I've done so far. It would kill me to lose it. What I have to use for backup is a Glyph project M olde...

I really have to thank you guys for continuing to answer questions. I've heard the no RAM from Apple before, cuttime. Mr. MIDI, great practical advice as far as I can tell.

Thanks for sticking with me! Dave, you're right, the ceiling ($) is the limit. I had hoped to spend around $2,500 on a "new" iMac. I also needed to be able to move my current but older projects to the iMac. If I need a new AD/DA converter then OK. I hate dumping what I have already, but te...

Thank you for helping. I'll try to clear up my situation. I have an older non-intel system. I apparently can't do much with what I have: Dual 2.5 G5 with 2 GB RAM and DP 4.1. Dave: I'm not sure what system I need to go forward without spending a fortune. I had a decent front end before with a Rosett...

Hi Guys. I know this forum is for advanced users, but I would appreciate any help. I have an older system: 2.5 dual G5 Power PC OS 10.3.9 with upgrade CD ROM to 10.5.6 2GB RAM MOTU 896 MOTU 2408 mk3 MOTU MTV AV Focusrite ASA 220 X 2 Rosetta AD PCI 424 DP 4.1 Kontact 2 (never installed) Trilogy (inst...

Hi, I just bought 10.5 from an applestore rep 2 days ago for $129 plus a few bucks tax. They don't list it on their website anymore, but if you call and ask for a product specialist you should be able to still get it. Then you can update it to 10.5.8 on the website. I believe that is the highest OS ...

Will do. Thanks alot CTB.

Hi all. I'm using some older software - DP 4.12, on a G5 dual 2.5 with an earlier version of OS 10 point something (sorry - posting from work). I have kept my Waves Diamond package(5.0) updated simply because it cost so much initially and I have a hard time just letting that kind of money go. When I...

I thought I'd give the folks who helped me a final update. I wound up having to send my son a mono mix SDII file converted to an MP4 which he was able to use successfully. He is now a college grad! He finished his project on time and sent me a copy of the documentary.(which I thought looked professi...

Hi, all. No luck. I know I'm probably missing something basic here. I finally just sent a mono mix to my son. He was done with his project, but he said he still could use the mix I sent him at the last minute. Spitfire: I was creating a master track - just didn't remember with all I tried over sever...

You guys are simply the best. I've been stuck at work after all so I couldn't try anything yet, but I don't think I did create a master track.

I'll give it another go tonite and keep everyone posted.

Thank you all sincerely from the bottom of my heart.

dosuna11: That was the suggestion in the manual. It was to create a new stereo track and name it, then assign it an unused stereo bus. Alas I may not be doing that process correctly because it doesn't seem to change the final outcome. Would you or someone take me thru THAT process to insure I am at ...

Well, I'm still stuck. When I try to bounce to disk I am not seeing an option for selecting "interleaved stereo files". My menu choices when I highlight the two channels and select "bounce to disk" bounce are: - mono - mono (with 3.5 db attenuation) - split stereo (two mono files...
