Anyone running logic on a 6 or 12 core Mac Pro yet?

Curious as to what the reports are.

Just got off the phone will Apple support. Problem solved, sort of. I do have all current software upgrades, but the problem seems to lie in the fact that I used Migration Assistant to pull settings from an iMac I'd been using as a backup studio machine. Apparently using Migration Assistant between a non-pro and pro machine is a Very Bad Idea. Support suggested doing a P-RAM reset, and that seems to have fixed the problem. The installer is proceeding as it should now. If I run into any other problems, I'll post, but so far, so good.
PS--the support tech suggested the P-RAM as his second choice; he said that using the Migration Assistant may cause problems for other apps, and that the beset solution would be to wipe the disk, reinstall the OS, and do fresh installs on all apps. I may do that if I run into any more problems.

Is anyone running a Nvidia GT 120 in an earlyish Mac Pro (ca 2007)??

My original NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT is not doing any sort of a good job with Second Life.. after installing Snow Leopard. It wasn't too bad before that install tho.
Some say the GT 120 does a great job in the early Mac Pro. What say ye?

You can't. The firmware is wrong.
Whoever 'some say' they aren't using pre-2008.

Has anyone tried a 4GB HDD in a Mid 2010 Mac Pro?

Has anyone tried a 4GB HDD in a Mid 2010 Mac Pro? I've read that you could go as high as 3GB with no problems although not supported. With the prices of HDD's dropping, I'd like to add more storage to my system, either internally of externally, but I'd like to get a couple of 4GB drives, and was wondering if anyone has used that combination with a Mid 2010 Mac Pro 8 core.

Drives as large as 16TB are directly supported in Mac OS X and behave well when formatted with GUID partition Table -- the default after 10.4.4.
There is a Bug in the Erase function in Disk Utility from 10.8.4, that is unresolved at this writing. Drives over 2.2TB, once erased with this software as an Internal Drive, the drive cannot be further partitioned or erased by that same software. A fix in 10.9.3 or later is anticipated, but not guaranteed. Older versions work fine. External enclosures with Large Drive support work fine.
Western Digital in particular (and others may soon follow) has also shortened the depth of the mounting holes on certain large drives -- the holes adjacent to the platters -- to allow for the addition of an extra platter on certain large drives. A washer may be required to reduce the effective length the drive mounting screw penetrates into the drive.

The "RC" version of Parallels is a Release Candidate that while not a release version it is very near.
As the name implies it is a candidate for release to the public. Many larger developers have mutliple versions of their products and will have often 1 through to about 5 release candidates from which they will select one to release as the final product.
You can find it here…

Anyone using a 12 Core Mac Pro? I have HORRIBLE performance issues .. Help!

After the latest 10.7.4 Mac OS X update I have extremely horrible performance issues with AE ... and they were not so great before the update.
It is still stabilizing ... but an 1:19 clip in SD is taking 12 HOURS TO analyze and stabilize. !!!
The 12 cores are barely being used and this problem has been an issue since I purchased the suite over a year ago.
Does anyone else have problems using AE on their 12 CORE MAC PRO?
REPLY ONLY IF YOU HAVE A 12 CORE MAC PRO PLEASE.
There must be a problem because since the update ... Adobe Encore is PERFECT .. and ALL 12 CORES MAX OUT and the encoding is quick!!
I also have major problems between PP and AE using Dynamic link .. and slow renders in PP.
Everything else works fine .. other apps / other vendors.
I am calling Adobe today.

Thank you for your time.
I am using a 12 Core 2.93 GHZ with 32 GB RAAM and a NVidia GTX 285.
I also have a Areca 1212 PCI RAID Card. ( NOTE: I HAVE A SERIOUS RAID DRIVER PROBLEM NOW. THE RAID IS DISCONNECTED )
Mac OS X 10.7.4
Adobe Master Suite 5.5
The Apple "Console" app logs a whole lot of these three Adobe related errors:
1. 5/18/12 2:10:16.260 AM aeselflink: CFURLCreateWithString was passed this invalid URL string: '/System/Library/Frameworks/System.framework' (a file system path instead of an URL string). The URL created will not work with most file URL functions. CFURLCreateWithFileSystemPath or CFURLCreateWithFileSystemPathRelativeToBase should be used instead.
2.) 5/18/12 2:10:16.331 AM aeselflink: -[NSMenu menuID]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x1183100e0
5/18/12 2:10:17.333 AM aeselflink: -[NSMenu menuID]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x115625740
3.) 5/18/12 2:11:18.596 AM [0x0-0x9b09b].com.adobe.aerendercore: You have at least one output module template that refers to a missing output plug-in. Please check your Output Module Templates.
Only half of my hyperthreaded processors are active when using AE "Warp Stabilizer". This issue was addressed before in the Forums. There was no solution. I dont' know if it is any better in CS 6.
Also the automatic saving of all linked compositions while using the dynamic link feature bewteen PP and AE causes huge inoperatable waiting times .. unbearable. My guess is that the new "Global Performance Cache " fixes this ... which I consider update to a terrible problem .. but they sell it as a feature ( Ill go into that later.
Question:
What RAID card are you using?
Do you use the Warp Stabilizer?

Anyone running Logic Pro/Mac Pro/Digi M Box

Greetings,
Updating my sad little system soon and wondering if anyone is running Logic on a Mac Pro in conjunction with a Digi M Box. I need to have Pro Tools for work purposes and am hoping that Logic will play nice until I can afford dedicated audio hardware for Logic.
Thanks.

It should work just fine...I have a Mac Pro with Logic and Mbox, but I use a Motu 896HD for Logic...the Mbox is there only for transferring and creating PT sessions....I have used it withe tha latest version of PT LE and it works fine with the Mbox....

Is anyone running an iWeb created website on a non-.Mac host????

Please help me. I have created a draft website and tested it on my hard disk. It ran perfectly without problems. Then uploaded it to my host (www.shorestopeaks.com) and I am getting a lot of error even if I am browsing using Safari (wonder what PC users are getting).
Why is this happening? Is there any way to fix it? iWeb would loose entirely its value to me if I can't fix it because I only run commercial sites, so I cannot depend on .Mac.
BTW. I have never owned an actual .Mac account (opened a trial and never had time to try it ) Can I run a website from there with a commercial URL that doesn't include .Mac anywhere?
Thanks.

Indeed you certainly can host your site somewhere else other than at .mac. I'm hosting mine with Dreamhost and have had no problems. You can take a look at it here (feedback, good or bad, is most welcome—and give your cache a heads up, because there are a LOT of graphics, and iWeb is TOTALLY and UTTERLY innefficient about handling them, so…you have been warned).
Within iWeb, I published to a folder on my desktop and then uploaded the files to my website using Transmit. If you need more specific information/instructions, I can help with that too.

P.S. Not much content at my new site yet because it's, well, NEW. There is a little, though.

Macbook Pro running Snow leaopard can not share screen with Mac Pro running lion with "Back to my Mac"

Anyone else? When I use back to my mac, I can get access to the files on my desktop, BUT, I can't screen share. Screen share is sleected in settings and everything I know to check is set up right. Back to my Mac ir running on both machines using the same sign in.
Any ideas?
Jon

Once you get yourself back to Snow Leopard, if you still want to upgrade somewhat, I would suggest the following:
1. Get an external hard drive that you can use for experiments with new OS versions. You could partition it into 2 or 3 partitions. You could then clone your existing Snow Leopard system to one partition using Carbon Copy Cloner (well worth $40) or SuperDuper ($25).
2. Buy OS X Mountain Lion for $20, through the Apple online store (I don't think it's available through the App Store). Apple has decided to make it very difficult for anyone to get Mavericks unless they have already downloaded it.
You will receive two e-mails from Apple, one containing a PDF with a redemption code, and one with the password you will need to unlock the PDF. Using the code, you will download Mountain Lion from the App Store, where it will appear among your Purchased items.
After ML finishes downloading, its installer app will launch itself. When you see this launch screen, QUIT the install app immediately! Go to your applications folder, find the Install OS X Mountain Lion app, and copy it to a safe location outside of your Applications folder. Keeping one or more copies will allow you to reinstall without unnecessary aggravation if you later need or want to do that. At this point, you can re-launch the Installer in the Applications folder and let it run. You can install it on a clean partition on your external HD, or you can allow it to upgrade the Snow Leopard clone you created on your external drive, or you can do both. This should allow you to test how everything works for as long as you like.
3. If you left yourself a free partition on your test drive, try a clean install of Yosemite and set everything up from scratch (do not migrate anything). This will allow you to see whether your problems with it were related to something in your Snow Leopard system.

Help with Logic Pro 8, Apogee Symphony System, and Nehalem 8-core Mac Pro

So here's the problem. I went on a shopping spree recently and purchased an 8-core Nehalem 8-core Mac with 14 GB RAM, Apogee's Symphony system (With Rosetta 800 and AD-16X), and I use this gear with Logic Pro 8.
I still get system overload messages. Sometimes with only 1 virtual instrument and 8 audio tracks!
What gives? I'm running the fastest machine on the fastest system with the fastest/cleanest hardware.
I'm running Logic Pro on all of its highest settings (like it should). Of course I could drop the buffer size and unclick a few things here and there. but why? Is my machine powerful enough to handle it or not?
I've deleted the plist a bunch of times and repaired hardisks and everything. any help from a certified LOGIC pro would be excellent and much appreciated! thanks in advance,
jayme

?It's highest settings?
Do you mean the sample buffer is at 32 or 1024.
Even though you have Apple's flagship system it's still possible for Logic to bring it to it's knees. High sample rates plus a couple of space designer reverbs can send a single core into an overload condition.
Try these settings under Preferences/Audio.
I/O Buffer Size - 256
Process buffer - medium
Do NOT have the I/O Safety Buffer selected.
More info.
What sample rate and bit depth are you recording at? ie: 48kHz, 24-bit?
When you open Logic's CPU meters are you seeing a single core spiking?
What effects are being used on the audio and single VI track?

Installed my logic 9.0.0 on my new mac pro, updated it to 9.1.5, it accepts my serial, but then asks me for an "original serial" that I don't have..? What should I do ?

Please Help !
I bought Logic studio, with logic pro 9.0.0 last year, worked perfectly on my macbook pro.
Just got a new mac pro, with macos 10.7 Lion.. I install the software, serial works,
then I update the software,because 9.0.0 can't open in os 10.7, and after accepting my serial,
it asks me for an "original serial" that I have no idea about..
sry for the english..
Please HELP, I cant survive without logic more than an hour !

I think this is a known problem with Lion and some installs of Logic, I've seen it mentioned before.

Anyone using the Ati Graphics Card 5770 with a Mac Pro 2.93Ghz (2009)

I would like to upgrade my stock Geforce Gt 120 cards in my Mac Pro 2.93Ghz 8 core (early 2009) to the Ati 5770 card which will be connected to 2 Apple 27inch Retina Displays.
I am aware that Apple states that the 5770 card is not compatible with the 2009 model but I have also read that Barefeats say this is not true and will work on the 2009 machines.
Having read numerous reports from people having problems when using the 5770 in there 2009 models such a faster fan speeds and excessive noise I really don't know what to do?....
Can anyone chime in with their experience and recommendations on the 5770 and also what Mac Pro model and OS version was used?.
I have looked at the Ati 5870 but it is a bit more than my current budget and my graphics power needs.
Many Thanks
Noodlez.

Very few problems. Some try to do something w/ the wrong dual link active adapters or to use HDMI or something else. I know of very few let alone "numerous" reports. But 10's of thousands of Mac Pro 1,1 and above love it and are fine and happy - and you need 10.6.5 (10.6.8 of course has a much improved driver whereas 10.6.4-1/2 was OEM and basic shoddy and not on the retail 10.6.3 DVD).
ML use to be trouble on a 2008 3,1 too. At this day and age unless you have PowerPC apps plugins or drivers and hardware 10.8.3 is the way to go. And 10.8.3 opens up more graphic card choices too. Nvidia GTX series or AMD 79xx and EVGA has Mac Edition as does AMD have 7950.
Barefeasts.com has test results
I think you want to double check but "RETINA" is a MacBook Pro only and might be thinking of Thunderbolt, which will not connect to a Mac Pro. There still is a non-Thunderbolt 27" which is.
