Can the Mac Pro sit on an incline

Can we place a Mac Pro on an incline (angle).
We have a situation in a not so deep rack system.
The Mac Pro's media tray hits the front doors when ejecting.
Cant even fit a USB stick in the front.
We are looking for a rack table top thatll fit all the way to the back but nothing has come up on Google.

Inclines are OK. All cooling is via fans, not convection.

Can the Mac Pro run Window XP (booth camp) and be used as a MAc OS server

Hi There
Can the Mac Pro run Window XP (booth camp) and be used as a MAc OS server in the same time?
I am a small business and I was thinking of using the new mac pro for a new workstation on my studio and to also use it as a server for 5 work others stations. Is that possible? Or I am asking a bit to much work load to do for the Mac Pro?
Can the Mac Pro can run under Window XP and Autocad and still be accessed by other workstation whilst working on the cad software? Is booth camp will slow the machine like Virtual PC?
IS the MAc Pro can manage file hosting website with PHP and mySQL capabilites?

Great question, but it appears the answer is no (at this time); they promise to work on it immediately. Check this thread at parallels.

CAN the Mac Pro deep-sleep with the Apple Raid Card?

So, reading through previous posts, there seems to be a problem (or 'feature' to charge the battery?) that prevents the Mac Pro from sleeping when the Apple Raid Card is installed.
Can users owning this setup corraborate? Is this indeed the intended way to work?
Thx,
Dan

as far as I know, deep sleep is only available for portable machines. if you meant regular sleep I cant help you because I haven't got a RAID card.
edit: I may have confused deep sleep with safe sleep… sorry.

Where can I buy the Mac Pro 2013 motherboard? Just the motherboard

So where can I buy JUST the Mac pro 2013 motherboard? If you can, please link it.
Thanks!

I know some good solutions to a lot of problems with Mac Pros. And other readers know a whole lot more solutions.
I do not know of any problem that can be solved by replacing these boards in a nearly-new Mac Pro. The processor board is sold as a bare board, with no processors or heatsinks. It takes an hour of trained technician time just to install the processors and heat sinks, and you MUST get the correct parts or it will not work. If your technique is not correct, the processor(s) will self destruct when you power them up.
The mainboard does not include the SATA connectors, which are actually on a wiring harness that is attached from behind.
What problem are you trying to solve here?

On the Mac Pro Desktop can you use a Samsung smart tv as the main and only monitor? Is there any reason one would not do that with a wireless keyboard?

I have not purchased the Mac Pro yet when I do my thought is to use our Samsung 55" Smart tv as the main monitor along with a bluetooth apple keyboard. Any suggestions would be appreciated

A TV set is not a Monitor.
A TV set is intended for displaying moving pictures, and not stable, static pictures, with bright, saturated colors in adjacent areas on the screen without "bleeding", fine lines one pixel wide without vibration, or smooth-edged diagonals in fine text edges.
The 55" width is beyond your ability to see the screen edges when sitting close. If you sit appropriately far away, the text will be too small to read.
The Mac requires that any display respond to a query including display_name and capabilities. Many TV sets have a problem "paying attention" to the computer port and responding when queried, so the screen may often remain dark at startup and after sleep, requiring your intervention to show a picture.

Can the mac air print to HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus Wireless e-All-in-One?

Can the mac air print to HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 plus Wireless e-all-in-one?

AirPrint is an iOS 5 protocol. It is not used on the Mac or Lion. What you *can* do is add the wireless printer to you network and print from the mac using that.

I am running a MAC PRO 10.6.8 and it has firefox 3.6.1.3 and it shows no updatres available? My MAC Book PRo has updated to 6.0.2. can I manually update my MAC PRO to 6.0.2 or is there a reason the MAC PRO should NOT use 6.0.2?

see question above

I am in my late 60's so I can't imagine all the changes and questions to what to do but... new Macs do not boot from an OS the pre-dates it.
The Mac Pro is 7.5 yrs old , I have the August 2006 1,1 right here right now.
Sounds like we have the same system - Mac Pro 1,1 2.66 dual/dual-core (total of 4-cores) DDR2 FB-DIMMs et c.
These cannot run Mountain Lion 10.8.x
The PowerMac G5 came out in Sept/Oct 2003 and shipping with10.3.0/
I would do a clean install. Than install all apps from scratch.
Upgrade CS5 first ahead of time if you want Migration or Setup Assistant.

Can i use my G5 drive in the Mac Pro?

Hi.
I have a 2005 G5 with a western digital serial ata drive with all my audio on it.
I also have an airport card which id like to put in the mac pro.
Can i put them in my new mac pro which i should get in the next few days?
Im not sure if there is a faster airport now and i should buy that?
Cheers, Benji

Sometimes it is okay, but in the end, you are much better off to clone the drive, erase format so it has a GUID partition scheme. Really.
As for 4 yr old WD drive, keep it for an emergency boot drive or something. I'd say put it in USB/FW case but not everything is happy in FW land lately. Pick up some new SATA drives, they are more than 2x faster, and $100 for 1TB.

Can you take your main Hard Drive from a PC and put it in the Mac Pro?

Can I take my PC's 120GB hard drive that already has Windows XP on it and put it in one of the hard drive slots in the Mac Pro and have a dual boot system that way? Or is there any way I can do that?
Thanks

Hi there.
Not only reactivating is to consider, but Windows tends to
act strange if too many hardware parts change (and too many
drivers are to be installed).
Especially with SATA-Drivers there are almost always difficulties, because Win XP itself doesn't know about SATA (because its too 'old').
Since I have use PCs for almost 18 years I would always recommend a fresh install, when things like Mainboards are changed.
Have Fun

Is it possible to use one of the mac pro's internal hard drives as a external drive that can be accessed by a macbook etc?

is it possible to use one of the mac pro's internal hard drives as a external drive that can be accessed by a macbook etc?

Only if you move it to an external enclosure and let them both access it through a file server.

Mac Pro can access other Macs but those same Macs cannot access the Mac Pro

Hello.
I have a highly annoying problem that goes as follows:
My (home) network consists of:
- 1 Mac Pro (e2008 - 10.5.6)
- 1 iMac (2008 - 10.5.6)
- 1 MacMini (2004 - 10.4.??)
- 1 MacBook Air (2008 - 10.5.6)
The internet connection is alive and well with no drops not that it truely matters here.
The setup is as follows:
- Linksys AM300 in half bridge mode connects to the
- Apple Airport Extreme Base station from which 1 cat6 cable runs to the
- Mac Pro
The other Macs connected to the Airport Extreme wirelessly.
The Mac Pro has its network settings setup correctly (in fact it used to work fine but then just stopped working) and I have also disabled all network settings, rebooted and reapplied the settings to no effect.
To clarify:
I (Mac Pro) can connect to all Macs in the network but all those macs can see me but not connect to me. Connecting via the Finder simply says "Connection Failed" and if I open the "Connect to server.." and enter the IP address of the Mac Pro it results in an error/failed connection also.
Any ideas to fix this would be highly appreciated.
PS: As of now, 19/03/2009, I have all software updates installed on all macs in the network.

Place the files you want to transfer on the Desktop
Click on the Finder or desktop to swtich to Finder, then Go > Computer, then double click on the boot drive, then on the Users folder.
Open the target User folder and inside is a Public folder > Drop Box, just drag and drop in there and the permissions change so that user can use the file.

HT1338 I own the Mac Pro Desktop with the older OS X 10.5.8. Can I upgrade to a newer version?

I own the Mac Pro Desktop with the older OS X 10.5.8. Can I upgrade to a newer version? Will it affect my docs etc currently stored on hard drive's? How much will this cost?

If you have a 2006 or 2007 model you can upgrade it to Lion - 10.7.x. If it's a 2008 or later model you can upgrade to the current version of Mountain Lion. Doing so requires Snow Leopard 10.6.8:
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
     For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.
Back up your current system to an external drive or to an available internal drive by making a bootable clone:
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
       it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
      the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

The Mac Pro - the desktop computer - does not support Airdrop, if that's what you mean.

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.
