2008 Mac Pro Kernel Panicking Frequently

Guys, I'm throwing my hands up in the air.  I'm at your mercy.  Tell me to rub beets on the aluminum housing of the Mac Pro, and I will.  Tell me to sing lullabies into my USB mouse, and I will.  Tell me to reboot 3 times, and I will.  I've come to that point
I've been experiencing a lot of kernel panics of late.  Probably six kernel panicks today alone.  This was happening on Mountain Lion as well as Mavericks, so I'm not going to jump on that train, but I'm really nearing the end of the easy fixes/obvious solutions to this problem.
What I've tried / What I think / What I've observed:
I've booted into apple hardware test and ran the long diagnostic, but nothing was found.  I should add that since my computer doesn't have that hidden partition with AHT, I did have to boot off the old Leopard DVD that came with the computer.  Not sure if its age makes a difference.
I've noticed that I can almost always reproduce the problem by downloading at high bandwidth rates.  Today, I had my home internet speed bumped up, and minutes after starting some beefy downloads, the computer kernel panicked.  As soon as it came back up, I resumed the downloads, crashed again.
One of my first thoughts was memory.  I have four 2GB sticks of memory.  I have tried swapping two of the four sticks out.  Still crashed.  Pulled those two out and put in the other two stick, still crashed.
I have a Samsung 840 250GB SSD drive.  I've been running it without TRIM support but just today, installed Groth's TRIM Enabler.  The computer has since crashed.
In addition, when I installed the SSD drive, about a year ago, I had to install the OS from scratch, so while I'm not ruling out any kind of OS corruption, it's not like the install is old.  At the same time, I have to admit that I have not tried re-installing the OS, and if you guys ask me to, I will.
The next thing that I'm thinking of trying, but will be kind of a pain, is to replace the SSD with the original spinny disk, install Mavericks on there, and see how it performs.  Can you guys recommend a good SSD tester to rule out the drive as the issue?
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
Here's the output of the latest crash report:

Third party kernel extensions are none "com.apple" extensions, in this case:
com.cisco.kext.acsock          1.1.0
org.virtualbox.kext.VBoxUSB          4.2.12
org.virtualbox.kext.VBoxDrv          4.2.12
jp.plentycom.driver.SteerMouse          4.1.6
at.obdev.nke.LittleSnitch          4052
or you can list third party extension with Terminal.app
open Terminal.app and type
"kextstat | grep -v com.apple"

  • Early 2008 Mac Pro frequently shut downs during start up, Help!

    Hello all,
    My early 2008 Mac Pro has gradually started having the following problems:
    It will often shut down when it goes to sleep.
    It has shut down randomly a few times.
    And just today it shut down about 5-10 seconds after being turned on. It took about 6 tries before I could get it to turn on.
    I have tried all of theusual software remedies (disk utility, different startup drives, resetting the SMC, PRAM, etc.)
    I have run apple hardware test on loop for several hours with no errors appearing...
    The computer also often loads up to a circle with with a slash through the middle sign, though I am not sure if this is related (it started happening when it switched my system over to a SSD).
    I am wondering if this is simply a slowly sying PSU and if replacing it might help? If there any way of monitoring this perhaps? I somehow thought that if it was the PSU then it would simply die completely rather than fade like this...
    Any ideas much appreciated!

    There are multiple threads and reports of issues with Icy Dock - there is one on Amazon that lines up properly.
    The drive sled length of 2009-2012 Mac Pro are longer. Maybe OWC needs to be clearer.
    You'e right half-way and maybe some corrupt plist or interferring process you have, or even another hardware item or cable - external - even printer drivers or something that refuses or does not like sleep. Controller card?
    All around I'd have to vote for Samsung 830 model. Then Intel 520. Crucial is out with x4 now (Or is it "V"?)
    SSD firmware continues to be trouble. Even May-June the SandForce firmware had major issue and reason to hold off any using theirs. Reason to see if yours needed to be updated. Someone last week with m4 found they had old firmware and needed to update it.

  • Lion will not install on a January 2008 Mac Pro (3.1)

    I have a January 2008 Mac Pro (version 3.1) and I'm trying to install Lion on one of the hard drives in the main chassis. It has consistently failed.
    I have tried:
    Reseating memory
    Reseathing hard drives
    Zap PRAM
    Reset SMC
    Downloaded 4 fresh copies of Lion from the App Store
    Install from the installer file
    Install from a DVD made with InstallESD.DMG
    Yet, it fails consistently.
    I have 5 log files I'm willing to share, but they almost always look like this one. Some of them fail on different pkg's, but in general, this one seems to be the most regular failure. It's like the filesystem just dies in the middle of the install.
    Any insight would be GREATLY appreciated.

    I figured out the problem.
    This is going to sound a little crazy, but I've spent a lot of time on this one.
    There's some kind of incompatibility with Lion and Seagate ST31000340AS drives. I was trying to install Lion on these drives and it would consistently fail. I've also tried to use these drives in a RAID volume. No go. I tried three different drives of this model. All of them failed.
    I tried to install Lion on a Seagate ST31000528AS and it worked first time and sings beautifully.

  • Early 2008 Mac Pro + nVidia 8800: Never going to work?

    This forum is littered with threads about early 2008 Mac Pros with the nVidia 8800 card - none of them positive.
    I was unfortunate enough to wait for Apple to release such a machine and buy it. Graphics performance is dire given the hardware available. The machine routinely crashes with the window manager hang problem (the user interface just locks up, yet network services etc. still work), in the way familiar to anyone blighted by this particular bug; just run the Folding@Home client on your machine if you want to experience the joy. Or screensavers, sometimes, so I've had to turn those off. And I've had to turn off monitor power saving too, because I too suffer from the 'monitors sometimes don't wake up' bug. And of course I can't sleep the machine either, because firmware upgrade or not, it's still not reliable. And after all this, still the machine crashes.
    SSH to the machine; try to restart cleanly; even 'sudo reboot' won't restart it. Apple have achieved something I've never seen out of any Unix or Unix-like operating system, ever; the kernel is unable to kill its own processes.
    There have been no indications from Apple that I've seen on these forums over several weeks that the problem is even being acknowledged, let alone tackled. Latest reports indicate that even the 1st gen Mac Pro owners are suffering if they install the 8800.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1460752&tstart=0
    My machine rarely makes it through the day without a forced reboot due to the window manager hanging. I can't do any work on it. I can't rely on it. I can't enjoy it. I can't even use it for web browsing without fear of it hanging.
    There seem to be no facts about this at all. So all I can ask for is opinions. Does anyone have any offering of hope that early 2008 Mac Pros might ever work properly with 8800 cards? Y'know, little things, like actually being able to handle graphics? Or sleeping the monitors? Or, heaven forbid, sleeping the whole machine? Or should I just send it back as unfit for purpose?
    Yours, tired and exasperated... :-/

    I posted this in some other blog (forum), I should have posted this here also but I hope this gives you and all with these problems hope!! I also ran some fish tank test some else posted to get the folding problem to happen and I can not get it to happen at all now, and since my 8800 went in I get NO LOCKUPS, SCREEN FREEZES, shaky blurry video when I boot, so far NOTHING, IT JUST WORKS!!!!!!!!
    Now that I think about it the person who said to use the fish tank program had a bad 8800 and maybe you do also!! here is the link to that:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6965475&#6965475
    I purchased my first mac pro early 08 2 months ago (amazon.com).
    2 quad core 2.8's, 2 gig apple 4 gig OWC total 6 gig ram,2-WD raptors (1st mac 2nd boot camp winxp 32 bit), apple care.
    I had all my problems with the ATI card (I always purchased ATI, never Nvidia, for all the PC's I built) a couple of times I bought the first ones out, these had all kinds of problems until good drivers that actually worked were released (usually 6-12 months after the release of the card).
    So I try not to buy routers, graphic cards, etc.. for at least 6-12 months, but back to my 2600 card!!
    When I received my mac the graphics would freeze, I did a lot of online reading only to find out the ATI 2600 was the problem, the cure was to hook up 2 monitors to the card (and that worked!!).
    Then they came out with the firmware update, now my main monitor would after 2 days on a reboot be scambled (samsung syncmaster 213t, NEVER had ANY problem with it before on any PC I had, so I knew it was not the monitor) to fix the problem I had to either turn power off to the syncmaster or resetting PRAM (worked for a couple more days, then the same problem).
    I called apple and they sent a tech out within days to replace the ATI card, the replacement did the same thing after a couple of days, so I called Apple back and they took a bunch of info from my computer (BTW not much at all loaded in the mac side) and said to call back in a week, so I called back a week later and they said they were going to exchange the card for either another ati 2600 or the Nvidia 8800, I said 8800 and a day later on a saturday I received it, swapped the card and NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS at all!!
    So I don't know if the ATI card has problems with certain monitors or they are just poorly made (maybe AMD is mad with Apple that Apple did not use AMD processors).
    I have read others that swapped with the 8800 and their problems went away also!!!!
    Maybe some have no problems with the 2600, but I would not recommend it to anyone, if you can avoid the 2600 GO WITH THE 8800, the drivers will get better (and the 8800 will eventually outperform the ATI)and you will not be sorry.
    Apple is awesome, they are 2nd to none, their is no other company like this anymore that I have dealt with in a long time (not just because they gave me a 8800), like I said in the beginning of this post I always purchased ATI cards and would have kept it if it would have worked but 2 doing the same, ATI [AMD] has lost my support until they prove otherwise.
    I recommend Mac's to everyone now!!
    good luck and let me know it any of this has helped!!!!!!!!!!

  • Where and what type of solid state drive should I buy for my early 2008 Mac Pro Desktop??

    where can I buy and what type of solid state drive should I use to upgrade my early 2008 Mac Pro Desktop??

    Rick,
    When you get a chance.... DSLReports is off line: their SQL server decided to take its indexes and access to data. Power. Not enough of the right kind of UPS. Same happened to StorageReview's "Drive Reliability Database" about 8-9 yrs ago.
    dslreports.com is offline

    SSD: Loading CS5 plus other little monsters might matter.
    Lots of small I/Os
    latency of 1/100th where nanoseconds replace those "long" milliseconds
    System: Small and fast.
    DLLoyd even goes for short-stroking drives to get and maintain highest I/O
    The new 10k VRs hit 200MB/sec - I still use them and still find them useful, long lasting, feel responsive with whatever I ask of them. I know they get criticized and "cost too much"
    Just bought a new WD Black and yes it is better than the 2008 model I was using.
    600GB 10K $200 vs $150-220 for WD Black. your choice
    I can destroy a 7.2k drive, I have brought ever 10K drive back after a simple WD Extended Test in Lifeguard.
    I don't really care about $$/GB or I wouldn't have just bought Intel 128GB $149
    Database: the pros put the index in memory and page fix (virtual volumes in memory; cache; hold disk drive index in memory). Caching storage has been around for almost 40 yrs.
    Today you can use SSDs as front end cache to hold DB indexes and frequent data for web servers and such adn use slower secondary storage.
    SSD + SAS + 4TB storage
    Separating the system from data: #1 must
    Having data on array: been what I use
    I put a large photo library on 2 x 10K VRs vs SSD and couldn't tell much difference (SSD is soundless of course) But my WD Blacks make as much noise and run 15*C hotter than those 10K (not what you expect?)
    While 10K and 7.2K are in the 140-180MB/sec range, they are in 3.0 to 12.0 ms seeks, not  0.01 ms.
    People wonnder why shrink a drive to 2.5" (or why not go down to 1.8".
    How long does it take to reposition a disk head? how often? the 10K VR travels on outer tracks at 70 MPH. Really trying to fly off into space.
    It uses one step to find the "zip code" and then another DSP to find the "house."
    True of any high density perpendicular recording mechanism.
    And of course while the Raptor-X tried to find a home with famers, Cheetah buyers, the WD 10K line has more of a home where servers and small form factor drives - and 100s of them - can fit in a rackmount server I imagine.
    Anyway.... if SR and DSLReports can drop out of site due to power and hardware failure and loss... we can learn some and hope to protect our own data and investments.

  • Mac Crashes.... for the last two days I upon power up I have experienced the "White screen of death" on my 2008 Mac Pro 2.8.

    for the last several days I have experienced the dreaded wite screen of death upon power up of my 2008 Mac Pro 2.8,
    Screen will hang white - no apple logo - when I hit the power button resart - the mac power light does not go out, but "clicks" and  the mac will restart.
    I get the white apple logo screen and then some terminal script (about 20-25 lines) that lasts for a dew seconds - then an apple message appears telling me that my computer needs to be restarted due to an error - press a key or wat.... this will cycle continuously.
    If I power down and boot in safe mode - the computer seems to start up - with a crash log.
    Once I restart from safe mode - the mac seems to start fine and I am using it without issue - (of course until I power down and come back in the studio the following day...)
    I am not familiar with crash logs - but here are the two most recent...

  • Apple's ink preference option, randomly appears 2008 Mac Pro???

    Ink or inkwell. Is Apple's own handwriting recognition program It is included in leopard and is only available if your mac detects the presence of a wacom tablet.
    I don't have a wacom tablet, nor have I ever used one. Yet the ink icon has just recently began appearing randomly. A small menu icon, appears next to the volume control in the menu bar. It also appears under system preferences between keyboard and mouse and the print and fax preferences.
    The ink icon and preference option will just mysteriously also disappear within a few minutes.
    I don't have a wireless card in my mac pro. I also double checked to see if all bluetooth options are turn off. I have two hard drives both with separate installations of OS X. This has happened on both installs.
    The only thing new is a airport extreme base station. The airport is being used by only two computers my 2008 mac pro and a imac out in the living room. Both are using ethernet no wireless.
    At first I suspected the airport was picking up a stray signal from a neighbor using a wacom tablet.
    But I think thats unlikely since any wireless tablet would be using bluetooth.
    I did also upgrade to ilife 09. Again I don't see how ilife 09 could cause trouble like this.
    I have googled to see if anyone else may have experienced anything like this. I have found nothing helpful.
    Any one have any ideas To what might cause this?

    Anyone?

    All bluetooth options are turned off. I have no bluetooth devices nor have I ever used one with this mac. I also have wake for ethernet administrator disabled. I also checked to see if their were any scheduled wake events.
    Just before this morning on the advice from Apple care I did both a PSM and PRAM reset. To see if that would element the random appearing ink icon. From My first post.
    I think Their is a problem with my bluetooth chip receiving signals when is not sopped to. The chip is not turning off?

  • Mountain Lion Hangs on Early 2008 Mac Pro

    I installed Mountain Lion 12A269 on a freshly formatted disk on my Early 2008 Mac Pro. I have 10 GB of memory.
    Once or twice a day, the computer hangs. I can move the mouse cursor, but can't click on anything and the keyboard is inactive. The dock doesn't raise when I move the mouse over it. CMD-OPT-ESC doesn't bring up the force-quit window and none of the menus work. All I can do is hold the power button in to shut down and then restart the computer.
    There's no kernel panic -- the computer just hangs.
    The console shows two System Diagnostic Reports:
    Finder_2012-08-28-093935_Disk.hang
    RPDLAgentHelperE_2012-08-16-14738_Disk.crash
    Since it just hung a few minutes ago (08/30/12) I don't know if either of these files are relevant. Neither one is helpful.
    I'm looking for suggestions for fixing this problem or additional troubleshooting. The computer just hangs -- there's no consistent action to trigger it. It's already resulted in a lot of lost work and productivity.

    The console messages indicate a problem with your disk drive. It may be failing.

  • Installing OS and Apps on SSD boot drive on early 2008 Mac Pro while keeping all other data from old iMac on hdd

    So I've just got myself a early 2008 Mac Pro with a OCZ RevoDrive 80GB PCIe SSD to replace my old iMac which is slowly but surely giving up on me. I want to put my OS (mavericks) and some/all (whichever is possible/easier) apps, both apple and 3rd party, from my old iMac, onto the SSD but keep all my other data on the 2TB HDD, also from my old iMac, in the mac pro. Can anyone tell me how to do this/if its possible? (not massively tech savvy so simpleish language and steps would be handy!) Thanks!

    How to use an SSD with your HDD
    If you are going to use an SSD as a boot drive together with your existing HDD as the "data" drive, here's what you can do.
    After installing the SSD you will need to partition and format the SSD using Disk Utility. Then, install OS X on the SSD. After OS X has been installed boot from the SSD. Use Startup Disk preferences to set the SSD as the startup volume.
    Open Users & Groups preferences. Click on the lock icon and authenticate. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on your user account listing in the sidebar and select Advanced Options from the context menu. You will see a field labeled "Home dir:" At the right end you will see a Change button. Click on it. In the file dialog locate the Home folder now located on the HDD (HDD/Users/account_name/.) Select the folder, click on Open button. Restart the computer as directed.
    When the computer boots up it will now be using the Home folder located on the HDD.
    Another more technical method involving the Terminal and aliases is discussed in depth here: Using OS X with an SSD plus HDD setup - Matt Gemmell. This is my preferred approach because I can select which of the Home's folders I want on the HDD and which I don't want. For example, I like to keep the Documents and Library folders on the SSD because I access their content frequently.
    Be sure you retain the fully bootable system on your HDD in case you ever need it.

  • Does January 2008 Mac Pro boot into 64bit?

    Hello,
    Although it says here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3770 that early 2008 Mac Pro can boot into 64bit, though not by default with Snow Leopard, I'm wondering if my January 2008 quad 2.66 model is just too early?
    Machine Profile (Micromat) shows 'processor bitrate 64 bit, EFI bitrate 32 bit, Kernel bitrate 32 bit'.   So should I give up on the '64 bit kernel and extensions' option for this machine?
    Thanks...BC

    I just thought I would share my Mac Pro 1.1 experience. I recently had to replace a failed memory riser card  by buying a pair from ebay (they both failed a month apart) and took advantage of the opportunity to replace my Mac Pro 2006 with the 2008 model for $700 and inserted my drives and upgraded to 10.8.5. Just holding off on Mavericks for now...  Bought a Radeon 5770 and graphics are just peachy (i'm not a gamer). Then I put a samsung ssd 512gb in as the system drive and a 3tb for data so that machine is going fine
    What to do with the 2006 Mac Pro?. No one wants it on ebay so I thought i'd try it on Windows. Windows 32bit loads via boot camp once you figure out how to  recognise the sata bus (depends on your windows 7 dvd version i think) but under 32 bit you only get 2gb usable ram ! something , not just video is addressing 2gb so that *****. You cannot boot off the 64bit dvd (try it) so i installed 64bit windows 7 on a clean drive on my core2dou pc then put the drive in my 4core xeon mac pro. It booted fine and installed alot of drivers for the xeons automatically. Then I got some drivers from 64bit bootcamp and sound drivers from the realtek website. Then , I upgraded to 64 bit windows 8 pro and everything still works. Then, I downloaded the free windows 8.1 pro update and everything still works..... As PCs go, this is still a pretty fast machine, and gives little away to , say an i5 or i7. If you put in an SSD and gamers video card it  would fly, but i dont need that....

  • Early 2008 Mac Pro-What type of HD?  Smart failing?

    I have an early 2008 Mac Pro and have two hard drives in it.  The main system drive is a 2TB Western Digital drive I installed about a year ago.  The 2nd drive is a 1TB Seagate drive which is the original drive that came with the Mac Pro.
    When looking at Disk Utility a few days ago I realized the drive is showing up in Red and it's saying that SMART is failing.  I've never had this happen before and like having a warning. 
    First Question:
    When SMART shows up as failing can it be a false alarm or is it likely a definite sign of impending hard drive failure?  When this happens, does the drive frequently fail quickly or does it take awhile?  The fortunate thing is I back this drive up frequently to Time Machine.
    Second Question:
    What SATA speed does the Mac Pro handle?  I see many hard drives that are 3.0GB/s and some that are 6.0GB/s. Does the Mac Pro handle the faster 6.0GB/s?  If not, would they still work but just not at the additional speed?
    I may consider upgrading to a 1.5TB or 2TB but figured I'll go with a Western Digital or Seagate drive.  I see cache ranging from 16MB to 64MB and speeds at 5400RPM and 7200RPM.  Between these two which is more important, large cache size or RPM's? 
    Thank you for your help.

    Run WD Lifeguard (*Windows program or their ISO you burn to CD) is best and almost only reliable way.
    If a drive has started to use spare blocks it is gone.
    IT DOES NOT MATTER. Any 3.5" SATA drive is a drive is all SATA and mostly about features and specs. So just buy the newest size you need. 64MB cache and 7.2K (Green can have trouble on Macs and are more for backup and storing movies etc).
    I recommend WD 10K VR newest 250GB 200MB/sec for system $152, and WD Black or Hitachi.
    http://www.macperformanceguide.com likes 2-3-4TB.
    Questions like this get asked unfortunately.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3908030?tstart=0
    For every drive, you want to have multiple backup sets (clone and Tm) because drives and backups do fail and you want an alternate boot drive and to restore when needed.

  • Keeping my 2008 Mac Pro alive (HD and fans?)

    Howdy. I have a Mac Pro from 2008 that is currently working great, but I fear the HD and at least one fan is failing. The HD sounds like it's spinning up/down too frequently and once in a while I hear... clicks. I also hear a constant whining sound that increases and decreases with consistency -- the only thing I can think of is that it's one of the ,amy fans starting to go. the computer is nowhere near time to be replaced. So I have a few questions.
    HARD DRIVE:
    I want to swap out the hard drive BEFORE it fails. I want to get an SD drive (256GB I think) AND a replacement internal HD for documents (1-2TB).
    What should I look for when shopping new egg or other places to make sure I get something compatible with my 2008 Mac Pro?
    What's the best process I would use to get everything off my internal drive on to the new drives? I do use use Time Machine to back up to an external drive. I wouldn't mind if I have to first moving everything to the ssd and then selectively move documents off the ssd and on to the new HD. Would I somehow just restore the Time Machine backup to the new ssd drive? How?
    Once I have the new drives in place, can I still use Time Mahine to back up both the ssd and the new HD? Or does each one needs its own drive to back up to?
    FANS:
    I should probably first determining if my fan hunch if correct. I don't see any fluctuations in fan RPMs using iStat. Is it OK to use my finger or a pencil to stop each of the fans for a few seconds to see if the whining stops? Or will that burn out the motor? If it does wind up being one of the fans, are those easy to find replacements? I'd rather replace that, too, before it fails so that nothing fries in the computer if it does fail.
    Thanks so much!

    Nothing you're asking for here is difficult. 
    I have a 2008 as well and am planning for a SSD in the near future. I rather like the SATA2 units OWC is offering. You can use either SATA 2 or SATA3 and it's possible to upgrade your system to benefit from the SATA3 units that are being offered, but it's quite expensive because you need a bootable SATA3 board (about $1000) so I'll take advantage of the lower cost SATA 2.
    So far as the replacement hard drives go, any SATA drive will work, with the best values being the multi-terabyte drives. Drive speed is also a cost issue and if you require very high performance then you want 7200 RPM minimum. But the new "intellient power" models perform very nicely for "normal" usage. Sources I use include Amazon.com, transintl.com, OWC, and NewEgg.
    I had a couple of fan failures on my PowerMac G-5s and found good replacements on Amazon for reasonable prices. They're virtually all sold as "PC fans" so you need to make sure they're the correct spec. (It's not hard.)
    Stopping a fan momentarily won't harm a healthy one, but use a pencil eraser unless you're a machanic or a masochist...  LOL.
    Good luck

  • 2008 Mac Pro Freeze/Shutdown/Slow Errors

    I have a 2008 Mac Pro. I have had it since it was brand new and it has been a lemon from the very beginning. I already had the logic board replaced twice under Apple Care. I am really hoping it is not a failing logic board again. I know this generation of Mac Pro's are famous for issues.
    The symptoms started about three weeks ago. At first it would suddenly just randomly restart while I was just surfing the web. No warning, no freeze, just a restart. Back then this would only happen about every 2 or 3 days. Recently the problems have increases in frequency to sometime 2 or 3 times a day.
    More recent symptoms include freezing but it won't restart itself. The cursor is just stick in place on screen so I have to manually hit power button to restart. Another symptom I have noticed was it became slow as molasses. I opened activity monitor but the CPU was not overloaded and ram wasn't close to being full either. I was not rendering video simply surfing.
    Here is what I have done so far. Zapped Pram multiple times. I have restarted and used Disk Utility to repair all disks. I have unplugged all cables and power to reset SMC several times. Under system information Diagnostics tests passed. Ram all seems ok. Hard drives smart status all report fine. About a year ago I had issues as well but that was easier to diagnose. It was a bad video card and before my computer would crash the monitor would get screen artifacts. This time I don't have a clue what is causing the problem.
    I will be glad to provide any and all info you ask for to help me solve the problem. Crash logs, any and all specs, apps installed, just ask and I will provide the info if you can help me narrow down the issue. My next steps were going to be to open it up and clean out dust, remove and reinstall hard drives and ram because I know sometimes they just don't connect properly for some reason perhaps because computer gets jostled. I was also considering reinstalling Mavericks but it seems more like a hardware issue to me. Thanks for any and all help. I am self-employed and depend on my Mac Pro for my livelihood so really need this problem solved ASAP.

    The RAM is less than 3 years old. I hit power button with SMC. Just downloaded Etrecheck. Your link didn't work but this one did http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
    I have already gone into my User control log in items and removed two log in items with yellow exclamation marks that I think are the ones highlighted in red in the log below.
    A UPS is simply not an option right now nor is a SSD. My primary drive is less than a year old. If I can provide any other details let me know.
    I know this is almost certainly not malware related but running Clamware scan as a last resort which is why you see that using most CPU right now.

  • My 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    My 2006 - 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV 1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. However, when I open the project on my other Mac Pro running Snow Leopard and FCP 6, the footage works fine as it does on my newer Imac running Mavericks and FCP 7. I have tried a Quicktime update on the Mac Pro that the footage doesn't work on but it says that I already have the newest version of Quicktime installed. I have also tried reinstalling the Final Cut Pro Studio twice, still no fix. I'm completely out of solutions and need to be able to edit HDV footage on this machine. Any help would be great. Thanks.

    there was a recent software update that seemed to screw HDV up.  Do some searching here over the last month or 2 and you'll find a bunch of posts and some possible solutions.
    Worst case scenario, do as Shane suggests.  But might I suggest you take a look at the user tips section of the forum.  there are some great tips on how to prevent these sorts of problems by cloning your startup drive, etc.

  • I recently bought a 2008 mac pro which came with leopard 10.5. I can't load any new programs because it calls for a password, but it won't accept it. I bought new snow leopard 10.6.3 but I can't load it for the same reason. How can I completely reboot.

    Help. I recently bought a 2008 Mac Pro from Mac of all Trades. It came with Leopard 10.5 installed. When I set initially started the computer, I followed the instructions on the screen. I was asked to set up a password which I did. Since I'm very forgetful and not too tech savy, I wrote it down as I typed it in. I first went to install Office Mac 2011 but when it asks for a password, it won't accept the one I set up. I was told that if I bought the new Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and installed it, that it would reset everything. Well, it won't allow me to load it without the password. I am new to Apple - this is my first. I have always been able to "reboot" a computer with discs but I'm not sure how to do this one. Is there a way to do it without the password and reset everything? Could somone please email me
    Thank You. David Moore

    If you don't have original install disks for your Mac, you can order replacements disks directly from Apple at a nominal cost. The original install DVDs are required to reset the password.
    If you have no data on your drive that you want to keep, you can boot up from the OSX Snow Leopard disk and install OSX SL.
    Insert the Snow Leopard DVD and hold the C key during startup. The Mac should boot from the CD/DVD drive into the installer.
    Follow the prompts, erase the disk and install OSX Snow Leopard.
