Bought new mac pro, does not work with sims 3.

I bought a mac pro 13" today with 2,4 Ghrz, 4 GB RAM. I bought sims 3 pets and installed it. But I can't play it properly. All the settings are on low, and there are no details. When I set it on high my sims flashes, and the game goes slowly. What can be the problem??

http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/407986.page this is where you should be asking this question. seems like they need to fix some bugs with Lion.

  • Newest Mac Pro does NOT work with CC14 - Will Adobe address this or not?

    I have a Mac Pro late 2013 - the "trash can" - and when I tried installing Premiere CC14, it crashed multiple times before even completing the program's initial bootup. I had to install CS6 just to get operable, though this does not help me open the CC14 projects I have inherited. I have a colleague who uses a $1.5K laptop, and it works logarithmically faster and better with CC14 than my $4K new Mac Pro.  I have all the Adobe permissions set to "Read/Write" and it shows absolutely no speed improvements over a much less expensive iMac.  The CUDA feature is worthless unless Adobe develops a way for it to take advantage of the hardware configuration of the Mac Pro... And I'm having a hard time finding anything resembling an official statement suggesting this is anywhere close to a reality.  I have many After Effects plug ins, and while yes: They are 3rd party plug ins, these are not just electives - They are part of my arsenal that my loyal clients have come to expect.
    For 15 years I have used After Effects, Photoshop and Illustrator, all 15 of them on a Mac. In all that time I have NEVER experienced this kind of vagueness, finger pointing, and dodgy avoidance.  There seems to be an allergy to making an announcement that anything resembling a coordinated effort is going to happen.
    Why would I buy "the fastest" Mac if Adobe didn't work with it?  MAC STORE staff didn't seem to think this was going to be an issue... Yet I can't find any official date as to when CC14 is projected to work with AMD architecture.
    I'm feeling a lot like I did when Mac juked us with FCP-7 to FCP-X "upgrade.'   Et tu, Adobe?

    (PS - Yes I had Adobe Creative Cloud assistance help me troubleshoot)

    No offense meant, but did you come here to ask for help, or are you just complaining?  Because it seems an awful lot like the latter...

    So does CC2014 work on your Mac Pro or not?  The laptop doesn't "work logarithmically faster..." than your Mac Pro if the software isn't working to begin with.  Hyperbole, much?
    The CUDA feature is worthless unless Adobe develops a way for it to take advantage of the hardware configuration of the Mac Pro...
    CUDA isn't available on the new Mac Pro.  OpenCL is.  If you have the CUDA preference panel installed due to another piece of software putting it there, you're better served by deleting it.  It's not going to help you at all on the new Mac.  It may, in fact, cause problems.
    Pr CC2014 works fine with OpenCL on the new Mac.  Ae doesn't, but Adobe has never said Ae does or would.  Anything you do in Ae is going to be CPU-bound.  If Pr is crashing, then it likely means you have something else on your system that's mucking things up.  Did you recover your user directory with something like Time Machine when you installed your new Mac?  Was your user directory originally on some other Mac?  What happens if you create an entirely new user from scratch, without restoring the home directory, and then try to kick Pr into gear?  Does it run?
    Provide some details and perhaps someone can help.

  • Final Cut Pro does not work with Yosemite. Can it be fixed?

    Final Cut Pro does not work with Yosemite. Can it be fixed?

    Hi Tom, I don't know if you can help me.
    I'm using Final Cut version 10.1.4 with Yosemite 10.10.2 and whenever I open FCP it opens for about 5 seconds (not allowing me to click anywhere) before closing with the message  "Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly. click reopen to open the application again. This report will be sent to apple automatically." I have tried opening it multiple times and the same thing has been happening over and over again and i've tried everything I could find on the internet and nothing is working.
    HELP.
    Jada.

  • New Applications model DOES NOT work with StandAlone OSD media

    If you are able to create StandAlone OSD media, the new Applications model DOES NOT work with it.
    - The creation of the media will be successful
    - The application installation itself will be successful
    Yet after the application is installed, it shows the correct process it needs to complete based on the return code in AppEnforce log, but does not process that information back to the the TS Manager so it appears to attempt to download a policy which fails
    causing the task sequence to error out..
    Thanks,
    Squirre1

    It is very similar to this description:
    http://madluka.wordpress.com/2012/05/15/error-0x8000405-when-installing-applications-to-a-workgroup-system-during-build-and-capture-task-sequence/
    It is using the application model, since it is not attached to the domain it is on a workgroup. But it is on standalone media and not during a build and capture sequence, it is during an OSD. But alot of the same puzzle pieces fit. Basically pointing to
    the new applications model not working during standalone OSD when the MP is not available. i would say that not enough information is getting encapsulated into the Application when exported onto the StandAlone media.

  • New Mac Pro does not include Keyboard and mouse

    I had not noticed and forgive me if it's already been raised, but I think it's a low blow that Apple is charging if you want a keyboard and mouse with the new Mac Pro's.  Sorry but in my opinion this is the height of cheapness.  C'mon Apple every desktop Mac I have bought (mac user since 1991) has come with a keyboard and mouse.  Does it really affect your bottom line so much to include these?  I have always thought of Apple as a class act, thinking of the extras and thoughtful customer service.  While this is not a deal breaker for me it sure gives me pause....  Sad.

    Apple has almost always charged on the Pro machines the keyboard and mouse.  Pros tend to want to customize what keyboard and mouse they use more often than people with "consumer machines."
    If you go to http://www.archive.org/ you'll find that to be the case.

  • New Mac Pro Won't Work With Old Studio Display

    Hi,
    Just got a new Mac Pro Desktop 8-core only to find out my old Apple Studio Display 17" won't work without a $100 adapter. We're thinking of just buying a new monitor instead. My question is will other brands now work direclty with the new Macs - or would they also need adapters? Is a DVI port the same as a DVI-D port?
    Thanks for any info...

    Thanks so much for the response, Malcolm, I really appreciate it! My old monitor is an LCD, but what we decided to do is since the adapter we found (and HAD to get from Apple directly) was going to cost $99!! We went and bought a brand new Dell monitor instead for $238 - it's fully compatible with the new Mac, and it's 23" (my old one was a 17") - so all's good!
    Thanks again,
    Jacki

  • Mac Pro does not sleep with lid open

    Hi this was the original post I posted a couple days ago.
    "Hi All,
    I have had a problem with my mac book pro, it does not sleep while the screen is left open. The way I used to be able to tell if the mac is sleeping is the light on the front should flash as it does when the screen is closed. Here is what has happened in the past.
    1. The original hard drive failed and was replaced with a 500gb
    2. I have had the top case replaced as the mac book pro would not sleep with the screen closed
    3. A clean install with OSX 10.6.8
    After doing all this, the mac is still having the same issue.
    When the screen is left open, I can hear the fans whirring away and the battery is drained as if I am running an intensive program. I can leave it all night with the screen up and wake up to the battery being completely dead. It usually takes about 3 hours or so. (105 cycles on the battery). The settings are set so that the screen and mac hibernate after 1 minute, and all applications are closed with wi-fi, etc turned off.
    When my fathers and my brothers mac book pro is left open, the light on the front of the case flashes.
    I have been to the apple store repeatedly and they are adament there is no issue with the mac. They did all their "tests" and the hardware was tested as "good".
    Thanks for any help!
    Chris"
    The problem was solved with the following:
    1. Deleting Login Items
    2. Turning off blu-tooth
    3. Unchecking "wake for network access"

    However, the same problem came back last night.
    Any ideas what is causing this?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    I forgot to mention that I followed the same instructions that did solve the problem.
    The things I tried were:
    1. turning off wi-fi
    2. closing all apps
    Doing this however did not solve my problem either.

    The warranty is worldwide. You should not need your receipt, Apple will have a purchase record - or at least a manufacturing date record and you should not be even close to the end of the one year warranty.

  • Brand new MacBook Pro does not work

    Today I was SO excited to receive my brand new Mac in the mail only to find out the USB ports do not work I can't sign into my wifi no matter how many times I restart and try all these other tricks. A few hours on the phone with apple care later the solution is they will send me some shipping labels and I can mail in broken Mac for a new one. It's now hours later and there is no shipping label in my inbox or spam. And I'm really worried they'll just give me a refurb. If I paid so much for a new computer and got one that doesn't work I don't want a fixed one. I want a new out of the box Mac. These things are pricey. And they say I can't just get my money back. The only apple store near by is a 2 hour drive and they are the worst. Ever. Has anyone exchanged with apple and actually gotten something new? My iPhone 4S came without working volume and the apple store sent me away twice before FINALLY replacing my phone the third trip out there. This whole thing has been such a pain I just want my money back.

    Complaining here will get you no where. Call and request a refund.

  • A new wireless keyboard, does not work with 10.6.8.

    but works with the Iphone, so the problem is not at the product I assume...

    Hello:
    If it is paired with the phone, it needs to be unpaired before it will connect to another device.  BT devices (for obvious reasons) may only be paired with one thing at a time.

  • New Firefox version does not work with my Viroshop storefront.

    Every product page visited now says the item is in the cart. This does not happen in IE or on my iPad, and did not happen in previously installed Firefox versions.

    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • DataColor Spyder Pro does not work with LED

    I love Spyder Pro which works pretty well with your iMac 24" (LCD) and 23" Cinema Display (LCD).
    I bought a new 27" LED Apple Cinema Display (LED) and did twice for the screen color calibration, ended up with same bad result i.e. too reddish.
    Anyone has the same problem ?

    I KNOW! haha, I hate how simplified the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi service is.. I hope that Cisco would enable advanced settings in their next firmware upgrade for advanced users..
    You are pretty lucky to have the EA2700 model. Cisco provides official support for people who do not like the Smart Wi-Fi service to revert back to the classic Web based setup but ends classic web for EA6500. If you feel like trying it out then give it a go! You can make a back up of all your router settings to your computer so if the classic web setup doesn't work for you then you can always upgrade back to the current "Smart" version and restore all your settings.
    Here are the links to that:
    This one talks about the benefits of having "Smart" Wi-Fi and tells you that you can downgrade if you don't like it:

    This link pretty much tells you how to do it:
    http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=25856
    UPDATE: I forgot to mention, to back up your current configuration; When you log in to Smart Wi-Fi just click "Troubleshooting", and click the "Diagnostics" Tab and you should see your Backup and Restore settings.
