Convert a Mac Pro Server from January 2007 with OS 10.4 Server to Snow Leopard 6.0 (NON SERVER)

I have a Mac Pro Server from January 2007 with OS 10.4 Server installed. I want to convert from OS 10 Server OS to just using Snow Leopard 6.0 (NON SERVER). I have two hard drives installed. What is the best way to do this?
Can I just install Snow Leopard NON-SERVER on the second drive, then switch it into the place of the original main drive?
Can I switch the drives, then install the Snow Leopard on the replacement drive?

Not sure how you configured the server, though you can install snow leopard on second HDD and select boot drive with pressing "option" key during startup.

  • Mac Pro seems to be missing 0.5 GB of ram after Snow Leopard install

    I just installed Snow Leopard on my Mac Pro (2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon). The computer has only ever had the default 2 GB of RAM that comes with it from Apple. I know I need more, it's on order. The odd thing that I noticed after installing Snow Leopard is that the computer now only reports 1.5 GB or RAM in the "About This Mac" box. Specifically it says: "1.5 GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM". Odd.
    Second if I click "More Info..." below is what I see in the memory slots.
    Does anyone know what might have caused this, or if its possible to get that 0.5 GB back?
    Second I just ordered 8 GB of RAM (MACMEM 4Gx2|KST KTA-MP800K2/8G R). If the above issue doesn't get resolved what do you suggest I do when the new RAM arrives? Should I just add in the new stuff for a total of 9.5 GB, or should I also take out the existing RAM that's reporting odd values? I'm wondering if the missing 0.5 GB is a symptom of other issues, and maybe that RAM is "sick" and could slow things down somehow.
    Thanks for any ideas.

    I am running a '07 Mac Pro that has had 7GB RAM since I bought it almost 3 years ago - the original 2x512MB + 6x1GB purchased from Crucial.com. Suddenly, after installing Snow Leopard, only 6GB are being recognized; two of the 1GB DIMM's now read as 512MB in System Profiler, and the Part Number and Serial Number listed for those modules are incorrect.
    After searching these forums for ideas, I have tried:
    • Resetting the PRAM -- no change
    • Running Apple Hardware Test -- no problems found
    • Running TechTool Deluxe 3.1.3 (updated for Snow Leopard) -- no problems found
    • Running TechTool Pro 5.1.6 (updated for Snow Leopard) -- no problems found
    • Running system scanner (beta) from Crucial.com - cannot read installed RAM
    The only thing I haven't tried is physically reinstalling the modules, but since the computer hasn't moved in months that seems pretty doubtful. If I make any progress I'll post again, otherwise, I'll be contacting Crucial for replacements.

  • Installing Windows 7 64-Bit Using BootCamp on Mac Pro 2,1 (Early 2007)

    Hi everybody,
    I have Mac Pro 2,1 (early 2007) 8-core, my OS X is 10.6.4, I couldn’t install Windows 7 64-Bit on BootCamp separate drive (as my Mac Pro 2,1 is not supported for this installation by Apple). I am seeking help if anyone find a trick to do that task. Your help on this will be highly appreciated.

    I was waiting to see if the original poster was still intent on going through with it, since it's (a) lot of work, and (b) an unsupported configuration. Unless he's using > 4GB of memory I'm not sure why he needs the 64 bit version of Win7 (there's even less reason to run 64-bit Windows as a VM). I'm not prepared to assume the responsiblity of solving any/all current and future problems he may run into, especially if this is for "work" and not a hobby-level, "I just want Win7-64bit" situation. If he's reading this and wants to proceed -
    The Jowie page, while workable, requires a more steps (i.e. even more work); plus, the screenshots used are from an earlier release of imgburn, which has different options from the current version, and if the original poster needs that much handholding he could be put off.
    Win7 AIK is "needed" because of the oscdimg.exe that is included. It is the "official Microsoft sanctioned" way of generating Windows ISO images. It's a one-line command that outputs an ISO image file once you have the Win7 disc in the drive, no need to muck about checking/unchecking boxes etc., and running the risk of burning coasters (since there's no way of knowing whether your output works until you actually run it, and imgburn has too many ways of messing up when you don't know what you're doing).
    There are alternate "direct" sources for oscdimg.exe, which are smaller downloads than Win7 AIK http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=696dd665-9f76-4177-a 811-39c26d3b3b34&displaylang=en , but I'm a little chary of "programs sourced from unidentified hosts", even though I'm certain most of them are just being helpful and are not malicious (have you read Ken Thompson's Reflections on Trusting Trust - http://cm.bell-labs.com/who/ken/trust.html )
    If the original poster (or anyone else reading) is interested, either the jowie.com method can be used, if you are averse to a command line or have poor download bandwidth, or you can get oscdimg.exe (however you choose to do so) and execute:
    oscdimg -n -m -bd:\boot\etfsboot.com d:\ c:\iso\win7dvd.iso
    assuming oscdimg.exe is in your path (or your current directory), and you've created a directory c:\iso
    Incidentally, after getting 64-bit Win7 installed your problems aren't over yet, because Boot Camp will refuse to install the 64 bit version on your "unsupported" machine. There is a workaround (see my post in the thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2589967&tstart=0 ) but I do not know if there will be a future release of Boot Camp that would defeat this.

  • I just got my Mac Pro repaired from Apple but I am experiencing the same issue: Screen freezes and shows funny rectangular bars. I shut it down manually and when I try to turn it back on it beeps 3 times. I know its the RAM but is there a way I can fix it

    I just got my Mac Pro repaired from Apple but I am experiencing the same issue: Screen freezes and shows funny rectangular bars. I shut it down manually and when I try to turn it back on it beeps 3 times. I know its the RAM but is there a way I can fix it

    If you just got it back and it isn't fixed or something else is wrong with it take it back and have them do the repair correctly.

  • Why is the 'mac pro' missing from the mac store?

    why is the 'mac pro' missing from the mac store?
    I always enjoyed speccing up machines that i will one day upgrade to.

    ooh! i am my third mac pro and i love them, in my opinion it is still the best looking case (inside and out) on the market . Fingers crossed they can come up with something better.

  • Boot up Tiger from Lastest Mac Pro shipped from Apple

    Ok, I am testing to upgraded our Tiger to leopard for the Marketing department. my problem is, the lastest or current mac pro that from Apple is not booting up from Tiger so I can install it on a 250gig hard drive brand new. I hold down the "C" and nothing comes up to prompt me to install. Mac Pro comes with 6gig and 650gig hard drive leopard, but I need to downgrade the OS to Tiger to test it.
    Any suggestion what I did wrong or you can downgrade OS on this new model from Apple?

    You can't boot the new mac with Tiger.

  • Does anyone know when the Mac Pro switched from ATA to SATA DVD Drives

    Does anyone know when the Mac Pro switched from ATA to SATA DVD Drives ?
    I tried to find this answer online but failed.

    Appears the Mac Pro (Early 2008) is the last model to suggest Ultra ATA/100 optical.
    And with an optional card, use Serial Attached SCSI via Mac Pro Raid.
    This kind of information gets sketchy in that the hard drive bus and other parts are SATA
    and only this (and earlier) model Mac Pro has optical drive interface w/ Ultra ATA/100. The
    logic board on the early 2008 appears to have two Serial ATA ports, 3.0GBPS; so to check
    these, you may need to look into specification in iFixit.com repair guides, any takeapart
    guides, and note specifications in everymac.com and those from mactracker.ca.
    The MacPro after Early 2008 model build series (Early 2009) appears to sport an optical
    drive with 18x speed, compared to Early 2008 & before, whose drives indicate 16x spec.
    Other changes may be indicated by certain parts and differences; processors, graphic
    support, and those kinds of things. 2008 shows dual-core, afterward, quad-core.
    So on what little I found, that would appear to be the divide or when optical drive spec
    on the logic board changed from Ultra ATA/100 to SATA versions. But double check.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Upgrading Mac Pro (2009) from to NVIDIA Quadro 4000, what PCI slot to use ?

    I am upgrading my Mac Pro (2009) from the Nvidia GT120 (stock) to the Nvidia Quadro 4000 for Mac. The GT120 was installed in the PCI Slot #1 and I would like to install the Nvidia Quadro 4000 in the PCI Slot #2, that way the Fan in the Graphics Card (Quadro 4000) will have better air circulation, is there any limitation or recommendation regarding the PCI slot to use ?, thanks a lot

    I have an early Mac Pro 3,1.
    The user manual I downloaded states:
    Slot 1 PCI Express 2.0 16-lane
    Slot 2 PCI Express 2.0 16-lane
    So I'm assuming that means both slots 1 and 2 are the same and it doesn't matter which of my two graphics cards go in which slots?
    Also, my second graphics card is a Quadro 4000 which is for Adobe Applications that use the CUDA engine. I don't have any monitors hooked up to it.

  • HT204347 I just buy a Mac Pro from one Company in Cambodia and I really want to check where is the spare part of such mac pro come from? so please help me to check my mac pro, the serial number is SC02H250ADV14 . thanks for your kind assistance

    Dear Sir,
    I don't know how to search the source product of my Mac Pro which I just buy from one company in Cambodia, the company said that it is made in China and it's part of such Mac Pro is from USA. I'm not sure it is truth or not. So I would like you to double check it for me. The Serial of such Mac Pro is SC02****ADV14 , thanks for your assistance.

    You can type in your machines serial number here to find out a little more about it, however, it won't tell you what components came from what countries to be assembled into the unit you have.

    This [post|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6724880#6724880] mentions the possibility that the ATI 2600 cards are manufactured on two separate lines, and that problem cards may be associated with just one of them.
    Thought it might be helpful to start posting specific card info and see if a pattern emerges.
    There are 3 main places on the bottom side of the ATI card where potentially relevant information is written. There is also info in System Profiler. Please include what you can but at least Part Number, Serial Number (mask the last few digits), and a brief summary of the problem symptoms you are seeing -- or that your system runs trouble-free. Feel free to copy/paste my text as a template.

  • How do you new Mac Pro owners like your machine with Logic?

    Don't mean to be a PITA but I need to get this right before I drop three to five grand on a new set of music tools. I'm trying to decide between Mac Pro and iMac for use with Logic. Seems there are a lot of posts regarding glitches with the new Mac Pro and Logic, whereas the posts from people with older G4s and G5s seem to indicate they are running rock solid. So you new Mac Pro folks or anyone else, please weigh in. Is the new Mac Pro "glitch heavy" or is it just a matter of tweaking the system to where it runs smooth? In general, how do you new Mac Pro folks like the way it works with Logic?

    I'm mostly pleased with my MacPro 2.66. Almost no crashes with Logic, although I experience a few more bugs here and there than with my G4. Occasional CoreAudio errors, I have to restart CoreAudio if my external word clock is set to the wrong sample rate when I open a session, there seems to be a bug between high fader levels (above +4dB) and panning... little things like that.
    Then again, compared to my G4, the FireWire bus is screaming fast--with most sessions, I can run a buffer of 128 samples at 96k with my MOTU 828mkII, while my G4 would sometimes glitch at 96k with 512 samples. At 96k, 256 samples, my MacPro/828mkII rig is rock-solid... I informally tested it by recording 12 test tracks simultaneously for 20 minutes, with the CPU nearly maxed out (which was difficult to do--took a bunch of Space Designers and Ultrabeats)--absolutely zero clicks or pops.
    And of course, WAY more processing power than my G4.
    I'm assuming that MacPro compatibility is a fairly high priority for Apple these days, so hopefully the bugs will get worked out soon. And as things are, Logic is definitely usable on a MacPro--the bugs I encounter rarely slow down my work.
    So, far from perfect, but as far as new technology goes, I'd say Logic on the MacPro is above average.
    Good luck!

  • Sync mail from Outloock 2007 with phone by PC Suit...

    It is posible to sync my mail from Outloock 2007 with my phone Nokia 6300 by PC Suite? At the moment I can only sync notes, contacts and tsks.

    iTunes does not support syncing email account mailboxes and messages with an email client on your computer. The option under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes for email accounts is for transferring the email account settings from a supported application on your computer to the iPhone's Mail client only so you don't have to manually create the account.
    If you want to keep mailboxes synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account, you need an IMAP account which is specifically designed for this.

    Hi Prabhat Y,
    Per my understanding that you are doing the migration from SSRS 2005 to SSRS 2008 and now you are re-creating the 3500 subscriptions in the SSRS 2008, so you want to the new created subscription in SSRS 2008 will be pause and not execute at this time, right?
    Generally, we have several method to pause the subscription processing, please reference to details information below:
    When you created an subscription, an new Sql Server Agent job will be created too, so you can you can just uncheck the 'enabled' checkbox in the job properties as below to disable the execution of the job,you can also  stop the SQL Server Agent Services
    manually, all your subscriptions will stop running:
    More information, Please reference to: 
    How to temporarily stop SSRS subscriptions
    You can also disable a Shared Data Source, pause a Shared Schedule to pause the subscription processing.
    Pause Report and Subscription Processing
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
