• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Morning all (I'm in the uk ;) )

I am in the process of making some videos for my company. I have made a few already, but need to step things up a notch and use a teleprompter.

I have just upgraded to osx lion, so it has to be compatible with this as well.

I would really appreciate your help on this one.

As an aside I am a complete novice and am really slow at learning how to use my mac lol.

Thanks for any help or advice you have.

Regards

Stuart

Which one?
I used iMovie scrolling credits as a free teleprompter. May work for you as well.

What do you mean by "won't work on a MacBook Pro" exactly?

I'm unaware of ANY app on the Mac App Store that won't work on a MacBook Pro.

Look in the Mac App Store, not the iOS App Store.

Prompster is an iPad app.

The Mac App Store shows Teleprompter and VideoCue when I search for Prompster. Search for the word teleprompt, and you get two other options.

Wrong 'App Store' (there are two!)

Hi Stuart,
they meant the 'desktop' App Store, not the version on your iPad/iPhone.

They're stupidly named as they serve two distinct purposes!

If you're running Snow Leopard or greater, you have the desktop App Store built in ;-)
More info here:
Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Apps

cheers,
matt
