Do the new MacPro fans stop in sleep mode?

The fans on my previous generation 8 core MacPro never stop, even when you try to put the system to sleep. So it basically never goes to sleep. Do the new MacPros actually go to sleep?
Thanks, Ed

This article explains and tells you how to do a SMC reset.

My new nano keeps going into sleep mode every copy of minutes while music is playing. I can't figure out how to stop this. The user guide isn't too helpful. Any ideas?

This is usually a sign that your iPod's headphones are not plugged in all the way. Make sure that you cannot see any of the silver still showing from the headphone's plug. You should hear a sort of popping/clicking noise when inserting the headphones letting you know that they have been fully seated.

Seriously... are display prefs just bad with the new MacPros?

2010 8Core MacPro with ATI 5870 video card. OS 10.6.5
This is my second 2010MacPro.. first was was replaced by Apple due to some hardware issue.
Driving 3 monitors - 1-30" Apple, 2-24" Dell Ultrasharps.
Using 2 Dual-Link DVI to Mini Display adapters (for the Dells) and plugging the 30" Apple straight into the cards DVI slot.
NOTHING allows display preferences to be retained after the screensaver goes to sleep. The ONLY way I can get my display preferences to remain is to set the screen saver to run for a couple hours, since i'm usually not away for more than that when working.
This SAME EXACT OS install worked perfectly in a 2006 MacPro with 2-nVidia 8800GT cards. And I mean EXACT. New 2010MP arrived, I installed everything.. was informed the machine needed to be replaced, I yanked the HDDs and put them into the 2006MP and booted right up, no issues. Replacement 2010MP arrived, I pulled HDDS for the 2006MP and put them back into the new 2010MP.
Is anyone else finding it difficult to maintain display preference settings on the new MacPros if your'e driving 3 monitors?
Thanks

As Mac OS X is a Multi-User system, and your user_id could (in certain configurations) be associated with a multitude of displays on a multitude of Macs, those preferences are found in unusual places.
Most are in your Home Directory. If the permissions on your Home Directory are damaged, so that you do not have write access to some of these folders:
<your_home> > Library > Preferences
<your_home> > Library > Preferences > ByHost
and files with names like:
com.apple.preference.displays.plist AND
com.apple.preference.displays.<M.A.C. Address of this computer>.plist
you may not be able to store your settings.
The general test is to create a new User account, and see if the problem recurs with a Brand new User account.
One broad preventative maintenance step is to Repair Permissions.

Has anyone in this Forum had problems with installing and running Adobe apps on the new MacPro?

Has anyone in this Forum had problems with installing and running Adobe apps on the new MacPro?
I have been trying to install Photoshop CS6 & CC and Acrobat Pro XI on my Mac Pro (late 2013). I keep getting a 'configuration' error message and wondered if the problem was wide spread.
TIA,
Jerry

Thanks, Martin.
Good to hear someone has had success. The lack of it here is frustrating and depressing.
Thanks again,

Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.

I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode. I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream). When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD. All device are on current releases of software. I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV. How do I correct this?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Is the new MacPro running smoothly with Photoshop?

My current Mac is way too slow, old, etc. to handle the large files that I'm working on. The new MacPro would be great but are there major kinks and glitches that still need to get ironed out?
Thank you!

I don't have a new Mac Pro, but Adobe appears to be working with them and fixing what they find.
In Photoshop 14.2 Adobe enabled taking full advantage of the FirePro GPU in the new Mac Pro (but not both GPUs at the same time, yet).
In Photoshop 14.2.1 Adobe fixed a stability bug related to the Camera Shake Reduction filter on the new Mac Pro.
So it looks like a couple of new Mac Pro issues have already been taken care of.

I've read that Promise Pegasus2 series does not sell replacement parts. I'm buying the new MacPro but am concerned about spending $2K for storage that may break and cannot be fixed. What are others buying for storage for the new MacPro?

I've read that Promise Pegasus2 R6 thunderbolt 2 series does not sell replacement parts (no replacement parts for any of the Pegasus line). I'm buying the new MacPro but am concerned about spending $2K for storage (12tb version) that may break and cannot be fixed (am told that one must purchase a new unit if a part breaks). What are others buying for storage for the new MacPro? Thanks so much for your help.
Discussion about this issue at MacWorld.com: http://www.macworld.com/article/2082783/first-look-promises-pegasus2-r6-thunderb olt-2-raid-array.html

I've used the original Pegasus R6 units for a couple of years now and have been very pleased with them. On the two occasions I've had to call on their technical sujpport, I've found them readily available, knowledgeable, and very helpful. In one case it involved the reset of a unit after a power failure at an inopportune time; in the other case it was a question about upgrading disk drives to higher capacities (1 Gb gto 4 Gb). I was pleased to learn that their tech support people were in California and as good if not better than upper-tier AppleCare reps. The hardware itself has functioned flawlessly so far.

During downloading the new version, it stops with a "waiting" status when Internet's cut happened. Since, impossible to restart or to download again. Help !

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Will LR5 benefit of graphic cards acceleration with the new MacPro ?

Will LR5 benefit of graphic cards acceleration with the new MacPro ?

Well, although LR5 is a great improvement of speed, the dev. team should try to work on MF files such as from the Pentax 645D… any speed improvement would be much appreciated, especially with dust removal and masking tools.
My actual configuration is not so bad, but I can't see how to get more speed from it :

MacPro shuts down in sleep mode

MACPRO 3.1 2x 2.8 Quad core Intel Xeon 8GB Ram ATI Radeon HD 5770 Mac Cinema HD 23 inch OSX 10.6.8.
If I allow or select sleep mode through either keyboard shortcuts or apple menu it immediately shuts down I can keep it running but half asleep (screen at rest ) if I have an app using the internet for example Safari using radio stations ; if however there is no app using the internet then the computer will shut down when sleep mode kicks in.
This seems to be a resent phenomena I have changed the graphics card from a Nvidia since the Nvidia was dying ( occasional freezes and wavy faint blue horizontal lines) although the sleep problem surfaced before swapping cards; I am not sure whether this is a hardware issue or a combined software hardware issue.
Anyone else having similar sleep problems ?
The computer is working fine apart from this one issue.
We are in the midst of summer here so the room temperature is an average of 30˚C at the moment can this have anything to do with the sleep issues?

Power or other problems related to unexpected system sleep, shutdown, lights or fans justify an SMC reset. Read all the steps.
Before Resetting the SMC
Try each of the following steps in this order before you reset the SMC. Test the issue after completing each troubleshooting step to determine if the issue still occurs.
Press Command + Option + Escape to force quit any application that is not responding.
Put your Mac to sleep by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Sleep. Wake the computer after it has gone to sleep.
Restart your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Restart.
Shut down your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Shut Down.
Resetting the SMC for Mac Pro, Intel-based iMac, Intel-based Mac mini, or Intel-based Xserve
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
After completing the above please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

I have an iMac (Mid 2010) and am running 0sx 10.8.5 and the WiFi always loses connection during sleep mode. I have seen numerous different solutions none of which seem to work. Can anyone help?

Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved. Make sure the box marked
          Remember networks this computer has joined
is checked.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading
          Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
3. Reset the PRAM.
4. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
5. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
6. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
7. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
8. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
9. Reset the System Management Controller.
10. This step shouldn't be necessary, but has been advised by Apple Support in some cases, apparently as a workaround for a bug. Open the Energy Saver pane in System Preferences. If applicable, click the padlock icon in the lower left corner to unlock the settings. Enter your administrator login password when prompted.
Select the Power Adapter tab and uncheck the boxes marked
          Wake for Wi-Fi network access
and
          Enable Power Nap...
if present. Then, if the computer is a MacBook, select the Battery tab and uncheck
          Enable Power Nap...
11. Reinstall OS X.

I have the new iPad. Even with airplane mode on, my battery life is extremely limited. Is there a problem with the battery? I used to have the ipad2 and had no such problem.

What is your brightness setting & how many apps are open?
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

My macbook pro 2.0 early 2011 will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?

Alo, my Macbook pro i7 2 GHz Intel Core i7 (early 2011) will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?

There is no output from that command line? Maybe the pid changed.
I'll repeat what I am trying to find out...
1. You do a pmset -g on the terminal.
2. The output from that pmset should have a line that says "sleep 0 (imposed by n)" where n is some number.
3. The ps ax | grep n is supposed to display what the process associated with n is.
It's the output from step 3 that should indicate what is causing you not to sleep.
But speaking of sleep, that's where I am going.
