Express 8 on a G5 Dual 2.0, 7 gigs Ram, TIger

I'm considering purchasing Express 8 to use on my G5..dual 2.0, 7 gigs RAM in Tiger 10.4.11.
Currently using an Alesis io 14 interface without any problems into Cubase LE 4
Was wondering if anyone can provide some input as to performance issues?
I've read online that some were having issues on various G5's early on..others weren't
Have any issue been resolved, or, were there ever any issues?
also..I run a seperate drive with OS&Apps only and I write to an external SATA drive controlled by a PCI SATA controller (Firmtek/Seritek hardware..very good )
Input appreciated..thanks
Pete

Well I'm sure that Apple have designed Logic to use the Mac's resources as efficiently as possible as you suggest. I can't tell you what the workable limits are because I haven't reached them yet. With my limited RAM I'm sure I'd have a problem if I wanted to record numerous tracks at once, but I don't work like that so it doesn't matter to me.
I have some songs with half a dozen audio tracks and 7 or 8 software instruments (external MIDI tracks as well but there's not much required in the way of resources for those) - they all have EQ and often three or four other plug-ins on each track and usually delay or reverb on a bus or two. There's the ability to freeze tracks (i.e. bounce them down to an audio file to limit processor usage - they can be unfrozen if you want to change them) - I really haven't had to use this feature using my G5. I also keep the multiband compressor and a limiter on the main output.
You can monitor processor usage (it shows like two bar graphs, one for each processor) and most of the time mine shows one processor being used about 50-75% and the other only about 10-20%, although admittedly its not something that I'm checking all the time. If you want to concentrate on recording audio in particular then Pro Tools may be better for loads of tracks -its been around for a long time and was designed to run reliably on much less powerful computers than we have now - I don't have much experience of it myself though.
Hope that helps.

Power Mac G5 Dual 1.8 PCI (4 RAM Slots) - want to upgrade to 8GB?

My computer is a Power Mac G5 Dual 1.8 PCI (4 RAM Slots)
Is there any way I can break out of the 4GB RAM limit into the world of 8GB RAM without having to buy a newer computer. I need to open a large 4.5GB TGA file in After Effects (48000 pixels x 36000 pixels).
Failing that, is there an application like RAM doubler I could use temporarily to get me though this job?
Power Mac G5 Dual 1.8 PCI (4 RAM Slots) Mac OS X (10.4.10) Currently have 4GB RAM installed

If there is not enough RAM, OSX will use space on the disk drive, so the amount of RAM should not limit the file size an application can handle, but speed will be reduced. 32-bit addressing can restrict the use of huge files, but there are ways that applications can get around it (at the expense of lower speed).
If After Effects has a file size limit, extra RAM will not help A later version (maybe using 64-bit mode) may handle larger files. 64-bit applications can be written to run in Tiger on G5s, but will be easier to write when Leopard is released.
You may be able to use some other application, such as Photo Shop, or Graphics Converter, to extract part of the TGA file, or reduce its size by changing its resolution, so you can use the result in After Effects.

I have a Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it. The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network. This is a pre-intel computer. Do I need an antennae?

I have an Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it. The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network. This is a pre-intel computer. Do I need an additional antennae? If so, which one because my research is confusing me about what is supposed to work with this computer.

Please check out the following Apple Support article to see if your particular Power Mac model supports an external Wi-Fi antenna.

I am lookinat buying an Aspire Netbook with 4 gig ram, dual core amd c70 processor and windows 8, wi

am looking at buying an Aspire Netbook with 4 gig ram, dual core amd c70 processor and windows 8, will it run my cs5 suite

Mark,
Adobe generally requires a minimum CPU clock speed of 2.0 GHz or higher in order to run CS5 or higher. Unfortunately, the AMD C70 CPU in that netbook operates at only 1.0 GHz, which is far below Adobe's minimum requirement. In addition, even if it did run Premiere Pro CS5, performance will be excruciatingly slow, not only due to the extremely weak CPU, but also due to the complete lack of a discrete GPU with CUDA capability. As such, that system, if it even runs Premiere Pro CS5 at all, would be at least 80 to 100 times slower (in terms of the Relative Performance Index (RPI) in Bill Gehrke's and Hard Millaard's PPBM5 tests) than even a mediocre quad-core desktop PC, let alone a fast overclocked i7 monster PC.

Can you add new AirPort Express Base Station Simultaneous dual-band 802.11n with a 1st Gen time capsule network

Hi
Has anyone tried using the AirPort Express Base Station with a first generation Time Capsule and used it to extend their network, while still being able to use the Simultaneous dual-band 802.11n on their network?
Thanks in advance

The first generation Time Capsule was not a simultaneous dual band device.
If you add the "new" AirPort Express to the network and configure it to "Extend a wireless network", it will extend the one single band signal that it is receiving from the Time Capsule.
In other words, the AirPort Express will not extend simultaneous dual bands in this type of setup...since it can only "extend" what it receives. You would need a simultaneous dual band Time Capsule if you want that type of functionality.

Logic express 8 on my dual G4 MDD

i... I have a G4 MDD, and when i open LOgic Express 8, i have a message...you need 1.25 gig processor minimum... but i have a dual 1 gig. Is it possoble than logic doest'nt work good with a G4 Dual processor ? Tank you Denis

Dual 1Ghz processors is not the same as a single 2Ghz processor.
Also I don't believe Logic Express is written to explicitly use more than one CPU at a time - i.e. compiled specifically for dual core CPUs, all it is doing is checking the first CPU it finds and sees that it is only 1Ghz. So this message, while having nothing to with G4, is probably correct.
So yes it is very possible that you will get less than expected results. I am sure it will work for fairly simple arrangements so unles you start to do complicated effects or add lots of instruments it maybe ok. If you start to run into problems, I suggest freezing tracks.

OLD Airport Express + NEW Time Capsule (dual) = nightmare

ok i have been trying all day to get my (very very very old, like 5 years old) AE working again, but simply cannot. feel like a total meathead, and have perhaps confused the issue with trying to install a time capsule at the same time?
i have a big-ish room (30 sq m) but no walls and def no issues with signal strength. in fact the AE and the TC are right next to each other and my MBP is about 5 meters away.
anyway here's what happened, any help greatly appreciated!
i have just moved flat and had to call the ISP because the wifi modem/router was playing up. turns out there's so many wireless signals in the building they're all vying for the same channel. so he manually changed the modem/router channel (to what i don't know) so as to be no conflict. so far so good, the wifi internet works again. phew.
buuuuut, now my AE won't connect to the network like it did in the prev flat same network name, same physical setup, but no love. all i get is a steady blinking orange light. always. in fact Airport Utility will only recognise the AE directly after a factory reset, and whenever it tries to then write the new settings and restart, i get the spinning wheel of death till eventually Airport Utility just wigs out saying the AE can't connect to the network.AE is running firmware 6.3 (the highest it will take) at this stage.
so i think maybe i'll just try to set up the Time Capsule, make that the main network node (not the wifi modem/router) and then connect the AE to that. And it worked! Well for about 1 nanosecond where i heard my itunes coming from the speakers. but then..... nothing. iTunes would not connect again and actually gave the error you get when someone else is using the speakers, but i can assure you no one else was. its only me in the house.
so anyway then i read that if i drop the AE firmware down to 6.1.1 i might get some love. tried that and.... nothing. now it won't connect to the TC nor the modem/router. so i push the firmware up again to 6.3 and now it won't connect to the TC - ***?!?! and still the AE only appears in the Airport Utility directly after a factory reset...
aaaaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhh, i am going banannas! i am desperate for help because i work from home and need my music from decent speakers! these little MBP tinny speaker things are just horrible...
If only the TC had an audio out i could just throw the AE away! have heard something about WDS or something? or could i even use an ethernet cable to wire the TC and AE together? or is it just time to buy a new AE? even though all i really need is to wirelessly get my music to my speakers and it seems a bit like overkill for that perhaps?
any and all help greatly appreciated, as i'm going to be bald very soon at this rate i'm so stressed and depressed

Hello zoltancsaki. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Is your goal with the 802.11b/g AirPort Express Base Station (AX) just to use it for streaming? How about the TC? Will it only be used for Time Machine backups? Do you prefer to leave the ISP's wireless router as you main Internet router? What is the make/model of this router? Finally, I assume that you will want to employ encryption for your wireless network ... would that be with the WEP, WPA, or WPA2 standard?

I don't have a dual-layer drive, can I install Tiger or Leopard?

Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard come on what appear to be larger than 4.7 GB discs. This does not mean you need a dual layer drive to install them. Some Macs capable of installing Tiger or Leopard came with a built-in CD-RW, or CD-ROM drive. For those a compatible Firewire DVD drive for booting Mac OS X can work instead of replacing the internal drive. Tiger also came in a limited edition Media Exchange Program CD installer package, which you may be able to find in the open market. The limitation for each is dependant on other hardware:
1. If your Mac shipped new with no Firewire, you may be able to install Tiger a special third party addon software known as XPostFacto.
2. If your Mac shipped new with less than 867 Mhz built-in processor (including dual processor 800 MHz or less), you may be able to install Leopard with a special third party addon software known as Leopard Assist.
3. If your Mac shipped with a processor upgrade card installed, and #2 is true, a firmware update may be available from the processor upgrade card vendor that allows Leopard's installation.
4. Tiger needs at least 256 MB of RAM.
Leopard needs at least 512 MB of RAM.
If you have a lot of dashboard widgets, you may need to increase RAM to improve performance on either operating system. The RAM needs to follow Apple's specs to ensure smooth operation. Only get RAM with a lifetime warranty.
5. Officially you need for Tiger:
"At least 3 GB of free disk space; 4 GB if you install the XCode 2 Developer Tools" from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1514
And officially for Leopard you need:
"9 GB of available disk space or more" from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3759
However, I would add to that if your hard drive doesn't have at least 15% of the drive free in addition to that, you may experience significant slowing down in the operating system function. This number has been arbitrarily discovered by many users.
6. When installing Tiger or Leopard, if your machine shipped with Panther (10.3) or earlier, be sure to get the retail Tiger or retail Leopard.

Hi a brody,
Maybe it's my training that states to focus on what we can do, but I'd suggest changing the double negatives to positives. Let me know as that does leave out the "if and only if" implication of the "can't" statements which you may want to keep.

Old Mac Dual G5 - want to upgrade from Tiger 10.4.11

Problem. I have an older Dual G5 Mac and I would love to be able to upgrade my Final Cut Pro 5 and my OS X version, but in order to do so, I need an Intel based Mac. Background: I used this system to edit training videos and wedding videos several years ago, but my full time job has kept me from using the system more than a few times a year. I have a new project that I would like to be able to updgade my system for, as well as purchase the new version of SmartSound for my music beds, which also requires 10.6. Is there anything I can do here, or am I just stuck with this very nice and expensive outdated system?
Thanks!

You need to purchase an Intel Mac to run Mac OS X 10.6.

As you can see it isn't just one of the processors that is giving me problems, it is both. So does it look like a Motherboard or Processor issue?

G4 Dual 1.25GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8) four 300gb drives, Dual Burners, 2gb memory

I've got a dual 1.8 I bought in Dec. 2005. It's always been a might twitchy, but lately I get Kernel Panics regularly. Sometimes the HD is damaged and I have to run Disk Warrior to get it back.
I have had some serious issues with the HD in this machine. I might zero it out and start over.... or just buy a new one.
Can anyone tell me what the panic log means? I'll add memory... sero out or replace the drive... whatever it takes. I just want to find a clear path to freedom. Any help would be appreciated.

8540p dual core i7 620m 8gb ram module?

Can my Elitebook 8540p with i7 620m processor handle 2x8gb ram modules? Yes there are only the 2 slots as this is the dual core not the quad core. All literature I have read suggests it is only compatible with 4GB modules. But others have found the 8540w model spec sheet says the same thing but the specs we're written before 8gb modules we're available. And the 8gb modules worked in their systems. Is this the case with the 8540p as well? Also I have found that others have used 8gb modules in the dual core i5 models. I do realize I will need to upgrade from 32 bit Win7 to 64bit if the ram is compatible. Any insight is appreciated.

The motherboard chipset used on the first generation Intel Core processors such as the i7-620m (P55m) maxxes at 4 per slot, I thought. We started seeing 16 gig compatibility in 2 slots (8 per slot) with the 2d gen processors. However, the Manual is cryptic: Four customer-accessible/upgradeable memory module slots supporting up to 16 GB of RAM in models that use quad-core processors Two customer-accessible/upgradeable memory module slots supporting up to 8 GB of RAM in models that use dual-core processors Supports dual-channel memory PC3-10600, 1333-MHz, DDR3 Supports the following configurations: ● 32768 (8192 × 4) ● 16684 (8192 × 2) manual Seems to be talking out of both sides of its mouth but I am pretty sure you cannot install 2 x 8 in there and have it work. If you prove me wrong (I hope you do) please report back for the good of the Forum.

G5 dual 2.0ghz 2.5 RAM 160HD on ebay

Hi everyone,
Anyone have an idea what a late 2004 G5 in "as is" condition would go for on ebay. The logic board and power supply are gone. RAM will be removed along with the hard drive. Casing in mint condition.
Thanks

I would not shop for a Mac on eBay without taking serious security precautions. This website discusses the weaknesses of shopping on eBay:
http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/fraudreports/topic1939.html
If you want to know what a used G5 goes for, shop around the used and refurbished websites that I list on my FAQ:
http://www.macmaps.com/usedrefurbished.html
Apple's Special Deals, Macconnection, Macwarehouse, Macresq, SmallDog and PowerMax have a very good reputation. The others I'm not as familiar with.

I am running Xsan 2 with primary/backup meta controllers and both of my servers showing no link on the Fiber channel cards....have 2 G5 dual 2.3 GHz systems, 6 gig ram, 10.5OS. and PCI-X FC cards. QLogic 5600 switches. Looking for the non-obvious

They have been up and running for over a about a year on XSAN 2 and all of a sudden started having problems with data transter and then won's connect anymore
Thanks

amd 64=12a @12V
ati 9800=7.5~10.5a @12V (assuming 90~125 watts) a max load,
a 9600 ir nvida 5200 used far less power
so your already at 18a with no fan,s no hd, no cd,no dvd ,no mobo chipset , no mem, no sound..etc
If you exclude the motherboard, memory, etc like you did there, the amd 64 draws 7.2A @ 12V.
90~125W for an ATI 9800?! [irony]Are you working for a PSU manufacturer or what?[/irony] That's just absurd.
Go read this post to get a feel for the actual power consumption: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?postid=297061&sid=#post297061
