Accessing G3 from Mac Pro

I can't seem to figure out how to access my ethernet networked G3, running OS 9.1 from my Mac Pro. File sharing is turned on on the G3. Had no probs doing this from my old 3400 also running 9. I want to do a manual transfer/house cleaning of everything on the G3 to the Pro so I can wipe the B&W & install Tiger.

Since you aren't getting a lot of answers here, you may wish to post in the Mac Pro forums here:
http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=194
You've ended up in the MacBOOK Pro forums; Apple's product naming gets a little too "similar" at times.
Alternately, you could ask in the networking section of the Leopard forums here:

How to delete applications from mac pro?

I think many people struggling at "How to delete appalications from Mac pro ,just because you made some mistakes or curious !" I know it is a bit difficut for people who are new users for the Mac .
If you really don't want them ,you can delete them easily,
As all you know after you download appalications from anywhere ,it could be from apple app store or from other websites. They all can be disspeared if you don't like them .
First , If you installed from apple app store it will be really easily just click at the app on the launchpad, after few seconds all the apps will be all shaking like leaves ,yes they are scared .(No No don't delete me I am helpful !) Ok yes that is a little joke ! so what you can see now there is a small "x" at the top right corner .Can you see them ? just click the "x" And they will gone .
Second step. This is only for you downoaded from other websites , In that case , you just skip first step come to here in order to save you some golden time .
You can delete them from the launchpad , I have tried many times . i tried to drug them in the the trash . But after them all jump back to where they are , So you need to open the Finder ---> click the download -----> find the file which is belong to the app (make sure ) ------->click it -----> drug it into the trash. then you can hear a little sound like you through it into the bin. it is really humanny isn't it ? then go back to the finder again .---->click the application -------> find the icon on there which is you just drag into the trash. do it again . take this one into the trash as well then you will find the icon on the launchpad is disppeared . at the end don't forget to empty your trash After that all job done , it is been deleted ,
Well done !

How do i save files from mac pro to an external hard drive

how do i save files from mac pro to an external hard drive

Your external drive is formatted NTFS which OS X can read from but not write to. You can either install third-party software on the Mac to enable writing to the drive or repartition and reformat the drive for exclusive use with the Mac. If you don't need to move files between a Mac and a PC, then I would recommend the latter solution.
Tuxera NTFS 2012.3.2
NTFS for Mac OS X 9.5.3
To repartition:
Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select the external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.

Strange sounds from Mac Pro

Strange clicks going from Mac Pro soon after power up.
It may going from memory cage when temperature of memory is rising.
Any ideas?

Or the graphic card if it has a fan. Or the fans if one is loose.
You should at least for awhile monitor the temperatures with one of the free/shareware utilities. If you push the system, you might even want to boost the fans from their default.
Try running Apple Hardware Test after you check for dust, loose cards. Could it be the PSU?

Cannot connect from Mac Pro late 2013 to Macbook Pro

Cannot connect from Mac Pro late 2013 to Macbook Pro . I have tried via ethernet and wifi. I can connect from the MBP to the Mac Pro but not vice versa. I have tried to connect to other MBP's on the same network with no luck. I try and connect as a registered user, as I usually do, with no luck. When I enter the Username and then Password the box vibrates as if the details are incorrect, they are not however.
Thanks in advance
Jeff

It is 'just not working' again.
To answer you question. Other sharing services work. I can connect as a guest. I can share screens. I cannot air drop.
I cannot connect either way now i.e. from Mac Pro to MBP and vice versa.
I cannot connect to my wife MBP either. My wife cannot connect to my Mac Pro.
It neither works with wifi or ethernet cable.
I can connect to my Time Capsule directly and Time Machine backups are working.
The passwords are 100% correct.
The Mac Pro is a late 2013. Does anyone else have a similar problem? I have never suffered this one before. Seriously effecting my workflow
Thanks

Can you pinpoint what 'diagnostic and usage data' you are referring to? More details would be helpful including the model MBP you are using and the OSX.

Accessing MBP and Mac Pro from iPhone (back to my mac? VPN?)

i am running Mountain Lion on the Mac Pro and Mavericks on the MBP and i am wondering if i have options for accessing these computers from my iPhone 5.
is this Back to My Mac and if so should i be able to access both computers from the iPhone while running this and what should i search for for setup instructions? or is this a utility only for getting back to my MBP running Mavericks from the iPhone or for getting back to my Mac Pro from my MBP? i am a bit confused about all of this.
also, does VPN get me something that Back to My Mac does not?
TIA for any help

Back to My Mac is for connecting from one Mac from another Mac with your iCloud account. iOS is not a Mac, so that isn't a supported feature – tell Apple you want it – http://apple.com/feedback/
A VPN is not the same as Back to My Mac. A VPN is a way to 'securley connect into a network from the outside' so that you can access your home network whilst away etc. VPN's can be created on computers or some routers. A VPN on a network can potentially allow you access to everything on that local network.
You should probably read up on what each of them is…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_to_my_mac
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vpn
You will need to explain what exactly you want to access - e.g. the files on the Mac, or use the UI to control the Mac (as if you were in front of it).
Apps like Screens can allow you some access to the Mac via iOS http://edovia.com/screens
You may find is much simpler to store required files in Dropbox & access them on iOS, it really depends on what you hope to access.
VPN's can be setup with Mac OS X Server, but that is probably not something to run unless you really need it (and have time to learn how to set up correclty - it will require you open up ports on your router which is a real security risk).

Moving Mail from Mac Pro to MB Pro

I am going to access email only on my laptop from now on. I am still rather new to Mac and need to know how to move all of my mail to the MB Pro. That means all messages, sent and received, and archived folders. Is this possible?

Since both are Intel Macs, you can do the following:
With the Mail.app quit on the Mac Pro and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail. Copy the Mail folder and place it where you'll have access to it by the MB Pro.
Using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.mail.plist. Copy the com.apple.mail.plist file and do the same with this file.
With the Mail.app quit on the MB Pro, place the copy of the Mail folder from the Mac Pro at Home > Library. If there is an existing Mail folder in your Library folder on the MB Pro, this will replace it.
Do the same with the com.apple.mail.plist file from the Mac Pro placing it at Home > Library > Preferences on the MB Pro.
Launch Mail on the MB Pro and all Mail.app data and settings will be identical to the Mail.app on the Mac Pro.
The only problem you may have is with Permissions but if your user short name for your Home folder/directory is the same on both Macs, this shouldn't be an issue.

No Sound from Mac Pro, however, volume icon moves up and down

Hello, I was using my 12 month old Mac Pro last night and it worked fine with sound as normal. When I powered it up today there is no sound coming from my monitor, but the volume icon moves up and down when I press the keys? I've checked in the Preference sound file and everything is set ok? I googled this problem and some people have suggested that there should not be a 'red' light showing in the digital connection on the back? However, I can see a red light, I've tried using my headphones in the front mini-jack and nothing? I disconnected the monitor audio cables restarted the Mac, there was then sound as normal if I used the sound keys. I re-connected the audio cable and it continued to play sound for 5 minutes or so, then stopped working again?

I have a problem with my Powerbook automatically muting. If you read the posts, there seem to be a lot of people having this problem and no one can explain or help.

Upgrading from Mac Pro (2007) to Mac Pro (2009)

I'm attempting to get a few simple questions answered before upgrading my current Mac Pro (2 x 2.66 Dual Core Intel) to a Mac Pro (8-Core 2.26Ghz). I visited the local Apple store to see if I could get my questions answered and left having concerns since the Apple reps could not provide me with solid answers.
The gist of my question is can I pull my existing drives from my old Mac Pro and put them into the new Mac Pro without having to re-build the complete system. The answers that got were:
- Sure no issues, everything will be fine
- No you have to rebuild
- and it will work but you will lose performance because of missing drivers
So I'm hoping that someone under this forum would be able to provide me with a definitive answer...
Here is my current Mac Pro configuration:
- Snow Leopard 10.6.1
- 4 x 1.5TB Internal Disks
- Drive 1 OS
- Drive 2 Data
- Drive 3 & 4 Raid 0
- 2 x Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT graphics cards
So with the configuration above. If I purchase a new Mac Pro 8-Core system will I be able to just pull the 4 x 1.5TB drives from the old and put them into the new and have the system come up and work fine? Or do I have to rebuild?
Last question, will the Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT card work in the new Mac Pro?
Thanks in advance!!!

As I said, just boot away. Obviously graphic cards have to stay behind (wouldn't really want those).
you don't even have to worry about what slot the drives go in (but never, ever be w/o backups, doubly so for RAID).
I will say this, personally I initialize and rebuild drives and arrays rather frequently, with a new OS, and sometimes knowing or discovering that there are changes to Disk Utility and arrays. And never be w/o Disk Warrior.
So in one sense, it might be a good opportunity if you have gone six months or didn't recreate your array with the arrival of 10.6 (though 10.5.0 was so iffy with disks it was best to sit it out for another six months, gotta watch those "dot zero" early releases).
One wish, that Apple would offer the GTX 285 as BTO for $250 at most, show they stand behind it in some way or 'endorse' it? They seem to EOL their graphic cards regularly, like every year.
Choosing RAM and cpu configuration is often hardest part.

Can I format an IDE Hard Drive from Mac Pro?

I use a mid - 2012 Mac Pro; run Mavericks OS X 10.9.2.
1. Can an IDE hard drive (using an external drive) be formatted to 10.9.2, from my Mac Pro using Mavericks? (the IDE hard drive is new/unformatted).
2. Once formatted to 10.9.2, can I reformat the IDE hard drive to Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.8, from my Mac Pro using Mavericks?
3. If so, would should I do to accomplish Question # 2 above?

The version of the OS that is running is not relevant to formatting the drive. When you format a drive in any OS, you should select "Mac OS extended journaled." (That is, unless you plan to share the drive with a Windows computer.) Formatted this way, the drive can be used with any version of Mac OS.
You do not have to reformat the drive each time you connect it with a different OS.

Transfer software from Mac Pro 1,1 to apple laptop, possible?

Is it possible to transfer all files and software from a Mac Pro 1,1 to a new apple laptop (I havent decided which model yet)? I do not have all the original CDs for some of the software...will they still work?

The general answer is, Yes. You can use Migration Assistant or Setup Assistant to make the transfer of your Home folder, third-party applications and support files, and system preferences.
But not all licensed software will work. Some software is smart enough to know it's been moved and will ask you to enter the registration number. In this case you will need to contact the developer about obtaining a new one or copy of the old one.
I suggest using the Setup Assistant that appears when you startup the new computer for the first time. You will need to have the two computers connected. The best way for this is to use Firewire 800. That requires that the new computer has a Firewire port. Some do not. These models have only Thunderbolt ports. To use them you will need both a Thunderbolt cable and Apple's Thunderbolt to Firewire adaptor.
