Just updated to 10.12.4 on my 2013 6-core Mac Pro with D700s and 16 GB RAM. I have the 30" Cinema HD monitor, which still works beautifully. It's connected to the MacPro via Apple's Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link Display Adapter. Since the update, the monitor is only working at 1280 X 800...

I had a glimmer of hope that they extended that offer to align with a Mac line announcement sometime in March. Maybe at least an updated iMac with USB-C if not the Mac Pro announcement we've all been waiting for. It appears I hoped in vain. I guess now I pin my fortunes on WWDC...

Hey guys, I am curious if anyone else has this problem. I will just be sitting down on my phone and hear my fans spin up and sure enough the light on it goes from blinking to a steady on and my mouse lights up, as if it has come out of hibernation. I then go to turn on the TV it is hooked up to...

Yes, I read the Nvidia FAQ thread, so please don't flame me... Can't seem to find a definitive answer whether the NVS 510 (Kepler) will work in a Mac Pro 5,1 - or alternately the Quadro K1200 or the M2000 (Maxwell). System: Stock Mac Pro 5,1 on latest El Capitan My needs are: A low...

It's like we're waiting for The Messiah or something. Seriously, why the heck is Apple taking so long to release a new freaking Mac Pro?? This situation is beyond ridiculous! Tim, just make it already. It's really not that hard. Hackintoshers do it all the time. But I want a real Mac Pro!

Hey Guys, So I've been following this forum since years and learned a lot from the experts here to troubleshoot all my mac troubles so far. You guys are great! Recently, I bought a MP5,1 for professional needs. I do post production sound and although the workflow is not heavy like video...

I'm going to make a new Mac server and want it to have raid. But the isn't a "server-version" of the Mac mini and I can't see any Mac mini config with raid. So I thought, why not a Mac Pro, it must have raid and the bonus that it has more CPU-power. But I can't seem to find any info, that Mac...

Hello everybody, I now that this topic has been discussed in other posts, but I had the feeling that every case was some kind of unique (after the usual troubleshooting), so I thought I give it a try with another post. My problem: I live in Spain and moved to a new place, where I am using the...

With the announcement of WWDC2017, as well as apple warning users that future versions of iOS will not support 32 bit apps, and the (hopeful) upgrade to the Apple File system, it got me thinking about the next versions of macOS and iOS’s system requirements. To begin with iOS, it is easy to...

Hi guys, I run/own a commercial recording studio and our main control room has been centered around my early 2009 Mac Pro since I purchased it new (can you believe it still rocks!) At any rate, I upgraded the control room's main monitor to an ultra HD monitor and I will be needing to upgrade...

Ever since upgrading to Sierra in late December 2016, I've had an annoying issue with Sierra on my Mac Pro (Late 2013). When I type in TextEdit and certain other applications like Coda 2, typing is very slow, not keeping up with me as a key letters and scrolling is very jerky. Coda 2 is...

I can't find an answer and I hope it is an easy one. The iPad Pro (12.9") and the Mac Pro are both sync'd to home sharing. On the iPad Pro I see my one playlist and on my Mac Pro I see a larger library. I want to play music from my Mac Pro iTunes library and have it play out of the iPad - so...

I have a Mac Pro 2008, and I'm looking to potentially upgrade it to El Capitan. Given that it's now going to be a 9 year old machine, will I experience poor performance on such a new OS? Currently I run Mavericks and it's such a smooth OS, however, with the new UI redesign and such I fear that...

Hi all, I had collected old Mac hardware for some years, but life and work took out that hobby for some time. Back then, I documented my small collection here: http://jvgavila.com/mac.htm But, some weeks ago, I found an ad of a Power Mac G5 which was described as faulty, for a reasonable 40...

I have an iMac7,1 (aluminium, the older thicker one), and a 5,1 Mac Pro. I've moved on from my iMac because it wasn't powerful enough, but I'd still want to keep its contents. Yes, I've moved the easy files to the Pro ages ago but the iMac contains some project files that are a sum of endless...

HI All, I was wondering if anybody can help me please. I have Mac Pro 5.1/ 2010, with unflashed EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 graphic card. This is what I know so far. The card works well, using Octane, C4d, and the rest. Big increase of speed and rendering times have been noted. I also know...
