6 projectors doesn't work on new MP

In Mac Pro 2013, FirePro D500, 16 Gb DDR3 ECC 1866 version OS 10.9.2
- connecting 5 Epson projectors via cable Mini DisplayPort - Dual-Link DVI
+ external monitor with cable HDMI.
Problem - the video content on the projector is extremely slow. Over time, some projectors do not work, lose their signal, there is an effect of "white noise"
information about the system.
Tab graphics / monitors - all 6 outputs are connected to a single graphics card - Slot1. Slot 2 - empty.
In what could be the problem?

The fine print in this article only guarantees six displays will work if they are ThunderBolt or DisplayPort connected displays:
Mac Pro (Late 2013): Using multiple displays
You can have up to two "legacy" displays (including the built-in HDMI as one of the two if you choose to connect it) and that they will work acceptably well, but there are still occasional reports of them not always coming on reliably.
Readers experience here is that you can have additional "legacy" displays, but they must all use ACTIVE adapters. ACTIVE adapters have additional electronics inside, so that they do not rely on the low-level signals provided directly by the Mini DisplayPort from the computer -- they at least have signal boosters.
There is ONE power lead in the standard interface, and that allows enough power for Single-Link DVI. Displays wider than 1920 wide require Dual-Link DVI, and the electronics is not trivial, so they need a USB for additional power to run the converter. The Apple adapters cost US$100 each, so if you can run your projectors off cheap DisplayPort cables, you should do so.

  • SessionManager doesn't work with new xerceimpl.jar?

    Hi,
    Does anybody know the solution to the problem below?
    The toplink sessionmanager, which loads sessions.xml for database session pooling, doesn't work with new xerce parser(xerceimpl.jar). It is tieing to old xerces.jar parser, which has been upgraded to have more functions.
    Thank you in advance.
    Praveen

    Hi Raanan,
    It works with old xerces.jar. But in-order to get new functions from new xerces jars from apache, I got xml-apis.jar, xercesImp.jar. They got modified from old ones. So this is breaking toplink sessions.xml load to work.
    Did you face this problem?
    Thanks

  • Video clips doesn't work in new keynote

    I recently upgraded keynote after installing os x maverick.
    When I opened my previous keynote presentation, the new keynote asked to upgrade the movie quality.
    And you have to click this option, otherwise the video clips will only come out as pictures.
    But now, some of the video clips doesn't work.  The thing is, I do not have the original video files as these are presentations given to me by others.
    What's next for me?

    Having the same problem, would greatlyu appreciate a fix. does it matter if one upgrades to the iOS or Mac Keynote options?

  • Safari doesn't work after new Installation of Lion

    Hello,
    I installed a new SSD into my MBP mid 2009 and put the HDD into the optibay instead of the Superdrive, after that I installed OSX Lion onto the SSD and used the Migration Assisstent to migrate my old User Folder from the HDD with the newly installed OSX Lion. After the migration, everything went well, except of the following:
    -Safari doesn't work, no website can be loaded, as soon as I run Safari, there is a process running named "Webprocess" which uses 95% of the CPU and makes the MBP heating.
    -VLC Media Player does not work as well
    Any idea anyone?
    thx
    Mohammad

    Another problem is:
    When I start the Dropbox Application, it uses nearly 90% of the CPU as well, so the mac heats up, in a way that it is not possible to use the dropbox application...
    (The Icon of the VLC Media Player  only jumps up and down in the dock, and nothing else happens)

  • MacPro eSata Port/Card doesn't work with new Hard Disk

    I just bought 4 x 3TB Hard Disc http://tinyurl.com/d2rglvn (specs of disc)
    Which I put in Macally Enclosures to work on my Barracuda internal Hard Drive externally http://tinyurl.com/clg8yjo
    I already have like 5 x 1,5 TB that works perfectly well with eSata connections (with exact same enclosures)
    **My problem is that my 4 new Hard Discs works really fine with my Mac Pro but only with the USB connections but won't work with the eSata Connection. I tried it on a MacBook Pro with an ATA to eSata adaptor and it works perfectly fine (So my discs are not the problem)  **
    I am working on a Mac Pro (bought in 2007) - Mac OSX 10,6,8 and this is (I think) the card where I put the eSata :
    PCI Card :
    pci1095,3132:
      Type:    Other Mass Storage Controller
      Driver Installed:    Yes
      MSI:    No
      Bus:    PCI

      Device ID:    0x3132

      Revision ID:    0x0001
      Link Width:    x1
      Link Speed:    2.5 GT/s
    I am kind of new using Mac and its support so what want to know is :
    Do I need to update my PCI Card ? If yes how can I do that ?
    If not, what can I do to make my disc work ?
    My disks are eSata III (6GB/s) is it compatible with my  Mac Pro ?
    Thank you Very Much for your time

    Difference between the disk that works in eSata and those that doesnt is this....
    Works : ** 1.5TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5"
    Doesn't Work : **3TB, SATA III (6Gb/s), 3.5", 7200RPM, 64MB
    it is probably the problem but i don't know what to do to fix it !

  • Ethernet card doesn't work with new arch install?

    Hi guys,
    so this is kinda my first post, not that I'm new to arch i just never had an issue i couldn't figure out on my own... But i love arch i have been using it for about a year now and have had no serious problems except for this. I have had arch running on an older dell vostro 200 desktop before i reinstalled with a vary similar issue except that the fix i came up with doesn't work anymore. I will tell you about the first issue first because i ALMOST posted on here about it originally but i figured out a way to make it work even though it was a hassle.
    After cold/rebooting my computer the network card doesn't work at all. lspci reported that the kernel module e1000e was the correct one (i have verified this) and that the kernel has loaded it, i verified that with dmesg but still it wouldn't work. After much much anguish and hairpulling, I realized that it had to have something to do with the module so i tried forcing it to reload with rmmod e1000e and modprobe e1000e and it still wouldn't work until i physically unpluged the ethernet cord and pluged it back in until the light on the NIC turned on. After that everything works as normal i could even unplug and plug it back in with no problems. So eventually i wrote a script that did this for me (except for the uplugging and plugging part)  and i used that when i cold/rebooted.
    But now i have the exact same issue after reinstalling arch to the T except for the fact that the (crazy) fix i came up with doesn't work now. I used my "fix" after booting from the arch cd and it worked just like it always has. And now after rebooting into my fresh system the fix doesn't work anymore. So now i'm back where i was to begin with but i have no idea what to try next. I didn't do anything particularly different during installation except i added a udev rule for the e1000e module just to see if somehow that would fix the problem... it didnt and i have since deleted that (to see if it was the problem). The only other thing that is different is the root and home are now btrfs partitions instead of ext4.
    I have booted several other live cds and dvds (diferent distros) including arch derivatives such as manjaro and they all worked just fine, using the same kernel module (e1000e).  I'm not sure what that could mean but i know that it means there is a fix for this some way or another. I am going to hook up a wifi adapter and connect that computer to the internet to put some more information up if it's needed (asked for) but for now  lspci -vnn | grep -i -A 10 net reports

  • Wireless Music doesn't work with new software

    Hello-
    I can't get my wireless music to work after I update the software to the latest version. The only one that will work is when I install it from the CD. But, I would like to use the most recent version of the software. As soon as I update, the Media Server won't launch on my computer. I am using a linksys WRT54G wireless router. If I check DHCP clients, the wireless music receiver is successfully getting an IP address. I have tried all of the things that linksys suggested (disable WEP, firewall, broadcast SSID, etc...) to no avail. Has anyone gotten the latest media server software to work with WRT54G? I have tried it on both my XP and W2K machine, with the same results (doesn't work).
    Thanks,
    Rich

    <SPAN>Hi Jeremy
    <SPAN>I have the similar problem, I've installed the software on my desktop, no error messages (apart from the certificate) and everything seems to be fine. After about 2 minutes the message appears that the network is not ready and consequently the media server is not running.
    <SPAN>Without the server running I can't setup the Network and the entire system is not working. I could ping it but that was about it.
    <SPAN>I've reset my router, renamed the SSID, tried with and without WEP, MAC, without firewall, opened a new account on my desktop with admin rights installed the software again into a new folder - result still not working, same error message.
    <SPAN>To make really bad, I installed it on my laptop, same procedure and it works fine! So it seem that it has nothing to do with my wireless devices or configurations, there must be a problem while setting up the software on my desktop.
    <SPAN>I really would appreciate your help a lot!
    <SPAN>
    <SPAN>Cheers

  • Dvi to hdmi works doesn't work with new tv

    I have been searching constantly for several days, and I have not been able to find a solution.
    I have been using a 32" Vizio HDTV as a monitor for my 2008 macbook pro via DVI to HDMI for over a year now. Recently, we purchased a new 39" Sanyo HDTV for out living room, and the screen continuasly flashes blue when I try to connect my laptop to the tv. I have also tested my computer on a 42" Sony TV, and it also works fine on that TV.
    I am also able to run windows through bootcamp on every TV mentioned above except the Sanyo TV lags a lot in windows. Why can't I get my laptop to display properly on the Sanyo TV, (blue flashing in OSX and lagging in Windows 7)?
    Should I try buying a DVI to Component/Composite cable? The Sanyo doesn't have a VGA port, but should I also try going from DVI to VGA to Component? The TV has no option for "game mode" or "image processing". I am lost of what to do.

    I found an answer that helped me get my MBP talking to my Philips 42" Plasma TV on this discussion thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3196192?start=210&tstart=0
    Here is what I did (in a Terminal window):
    Commands (pasted here for your convenience):

    sudo mv DisplayProductID-0 DisplayProductID-0.old

  • [iPhone 3GS] Home button doesn't work on new phone

    After half a day new iPhone 3GS stopped working properly.
    Home button doesn't respond. It works only when I plug iPhone to the computer.
    Voice cotrol runs by himself unexpectadly.
    iPhone 3GS with preinstalled iOSx 5.0.1. Should I update to the new 5.1 or downgrade to the 4.0 version?

    If it were me, I would return it for a replacement.  Also, you can only upgrade the iOS, not downgrade.

  • SMS doesn't work on new iphone

    Hi - I've got three Apple devices all using iMessage.  One iPhone 4S (unique phone number), one iPhone 5C (second unique phone number) and one iPad mini (unique email address).  iMessage works fine on all of them.  On the iPhone 5C, while I can use iMessage fine, I cannot SMS text non iPhone users.  The iMessage settings I have on that iPhone are checked to be received from the two phone numbers and the email address.  I have the start new conversations checked for the phone number on the other device, the iPhone 4S because that is my primary iMessage phone number that I want people to have.  However, I do want to be able to send non SMS messages from the unique phone number with the iPhone 5C device.  I've tried switching that start new conversations selector to the number associated to that phone but still doesn't help and I can't send regular text messages.  Any help?

    Imessage and SMS are two different things.
    SMS is a carrier feature, contact your cell phone provider to resolve the issue.

  • Flash Drive Doesn't work on new macbook

    If Apple offers you to exchange your machine and it is under warranty, by all means do it don't wait until your AppleCare expires.

  • 17" Cinema Display doesn't work with new MacBook Pro

    I have used a 17" Cinema Display with a MacBook Pro without problems for the last year. I just bought a new MacBook Pro and a Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter. Hooked it up and no display. Reconnected to my olf MBP without the Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter and it still works great. Any thoughts?

    I have the same machine and the same drive (for about 6 months) they work fine.
    The first suspect is the internal SATA cable, replace it.

  • Power button doesn't work after new update...and that's the least of it

    Ever since I updated my 4S with the new software my phone has had so many problems:
    Power button no longer works. I have to hold both the home button down and the power button to "reset" my phone to turn it off.
    I am having to do this CONSTANTLY b/c my phone freezes up ALL the time. When texting, using maps, other apps. Sometimes I can't get the freaking thing to even unlock. Texting is a disaster. Half the time they don't go through and when my phone freezes up for the millionth time that day and I reset, I later find out that my freaking texts didn't even go through. I HATE THE NEW SOFTWARE HELP!!

    If you are able to hold your home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time to reset the phone, you should be able to power it off just fine...

  • Software Update doesn't work after new SSD install

    I just installed a new SSD into my five year old MacBookPro (CoreDuo). I am taking the opportunity to reinstall from the ground up, getting rid of a lot of the cruft I've gathered over the years. I installed 10.6 fresh from the DVD and then ran software update. I could update iTunes, Airport, etc, but couldn't run the 10.6.6 combo updater. I was told that the file was corrupted during download and wouldn't expand.
    I downloaded the standalone combo updater from the website and that worked fine. However, when I went to install the drivers for my printers via the System Preferences function, I get the same error. Is there a setting or something that I missed?

    In 10.6.8 Apple won't allow Mac's to connect to WEP Encrypted networks, and won't reconnect to "hidden" networks automatically.
