Ethernet problem on 3 2008 Mac Pro's 10.6.8

slow or crashing file transfers on 2008 Mac Pro's running 10.6.8 with entirely new cat6 wired LAN with all new switches.  Seems like ethernet cards in 3 of our older Mac Pro's don't want to play nice at gigabit speed but a newer Mac Pro w/Lion is running fine. HELP!
The entire network, many laptops and a few servers and desktops all running fine on our new LAN.
Prepress network is set up with several Mac Pro's and a Windows 2008 Server running with ExtremeZIP, all the Mac's work off files that are on shares on the server but now when trying to copy files from one share to another from 3 of our older Mac Pro's running 10.6.8 the files sometimes make it...sometimes crash the entire Mac or sometimes just stall out with the pinwheel of death.

Yes and No on the Jumbo Frames....the server and all of our switches are at 1500 MTU's...but I tried it anyway on one of the Mac Pro's giving us this problem and it did not help.
What has helped is maually setting the cards on the Mac Pro's to 100baseTX, which of course defeats the purpose of our new gigabit LAN.
I spoke with OWC about this problem and the possibility of an upgrade to a newer Sonnet ethernet card compatiible with these Mac Pro's as a fix and they said while a new card would probably fix the problem that they were a little stumped with the issue we are having.
Needless to say it is very frustrating!!
All switches are set for 1500/full duplex....green lights on the ports where these Mac Pro's are plugged into.

  • Does the ATI 5770 graphics card have compatibility problems with early 2008 Mac Pro?

  • Os x 10.9 location services not working on a 2008 mac pro

    Maps and all other services that rely of my location are not working for me.
    Do you have to have wifi for it to work?
    I have turned on location services in sys prefs so that is not the problem.

    Seems strange that there is no way to set your location though. Manually I mean. It is a desktop not a laptop so it doesn't move around.
    You can set the Network priority to Ethernet, so even if you have both Ethernet and also Wi-Fi connected, it will use Ethernet.
    That way you can leave Wi-Fi on for location services, but use your ethernet connection for the speed.
    Go to System Preferences > Network
    Select the gear wheel at the bottom and select the Set Service Order. Drag the connections in the order that you want to be priority.

  • Why are there so many problems with the early 2008 Mac Pro ???

    Hi everybody out there using Mac Pro's early 2008,
    I found out there is a lot of problems with the early 2008 Mac Pro.
    My early 2008 Mac Pro has been repaired ones under warranty and now it stopped working again ! Also see under: Mac Pro early 2008 no chime and does not start up. Why is this ????
    It worked well for about 2 years and then it just fails and i had this failing issue twice already !!! Is this just a BAD Apple product or how do you think I need to approach this. Let’s face it, these machine don’t come cheap and you at least expect them to work without problems for 4-5 years. What is happening here ???
    Cheers, Kavango

    go to a black screen after 15 minutes or a couple hours
    That is probably an indication that you need to find a new graphics card.
    RE: Mac Pro Replacement Graphics cards
    1) Apple brand cards,
    2) "sold in the Apple store" cards, and
    3) "Mac Edition" cards ...
    ... show all the screens, including Boot up screens, Safe Mode, Installer, Recovery, debug screens, and Alt/Option boot screens. At this writing, these choices include:
    1) Apple brand cards:
    • Apple-firmware 5770, about US$250** works near full speed in every model Mac Pro, Drivers in 10.6.5
    • Apple-firmware 5870, about US$450
    2) "sold in the Apple store" cards

    • EVGA GTX 680 Mac Edition, about US$600
    The cards above require no more than the provided two 6-pin aux power connectors provided in the Mac Pro through 2012 model. Aux cables may not be provided for third-party cards, but are readily available.
    If you are Meet ALL of these:
    • running 10.8.3 or later AND
    • don't care about "no boot screens" etc AND
    • can re-wire or otherwise "work out" the power cabling, THEN:
    You can use many more cards, even most "PC-only cards"

  • I have an early 2008 Mac Pro, which has re-booting problems. Also what does the spinning beach-ball indicate?

    Hi, I have an early 2008 Mac Pro which has re-booting problems.
    Processor speed is: 2.8
    Memory: 2GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
    2 x 28GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon
    I am running OSX Yosemite Version 10.10
    My Mac Pro keeps re-booting. Last year I had to replace my graphics card. My original card was the ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 255MB, and that is what I have now. At this precise moment my Mac Pro is running perfectly, except that it is slow and the spinning beach-ball keeps appearing. I have managed to do some work with the disk utilities, verifying, cleaning and partitioning. Some errors were found and when it was cleaned this seemed to help my Mac Pro to function properly. Although I am able to use my Mac Pro now, from day to day I still experience re-boot problems. Also quite unexpectedly my mac dictionary has an error, it closed itself down and will not open at all, I had the message to say that a report will be sent to Apple.
    I have tried starting my computer with an external hard drive fitted via a USB cable, I use for back-ups. This worked and I was able to wipe my hard drive clear and replace all info from the back up I had done only a few days ago.
    This worked for a few days and then the same problem started again.
    I am beginning to wonder if I need to buy a new hard drive.
    If there is anyone who has some answers to help me solve my problem, I would be most grateful.
    Robert

  • Problem on my early 2008 Mac Pro

    I had this problem with my early 2008 Mac Pro which started last week.
    Some background; I'm using 8GB RAMs, using Snow Leopard and bootcamp Windows 7 and 3 days before the start of the problem, I had replaced the original 320GB HDD for 640GB HDD and reinstalled both OSes.
    While I was playing some videos in Windows 7 last week, it displayed the blue screen with memory dump message and restarted on its own. Thereafter, I was unable to load Windows 7 and SL respectively, both hung before they can be loaded. In SL, I noticed that there were some faint red dots in the Apple logo and subsequently, the entire screen started to flicker with some random black and white strips. In Windows 7, it frozen at the Windows logo with a 640x480 resolution. My default resolution was 1920x1200. However, I managed to loaded into the safe mode of Windows and extracted my work.
    I tried to re-install SL and it hung again at the Apple logo followed by the flickering.
    I sent it to my local service centre and the technician removed my video card, RAMs and memory risers and cleaned the contact, ran the stress test overnight, AHT3A152 and ASD3S123 tests and concluded that he found no issues with the hardwares and the problem did not occur again.
    The Mac Pro was sent back to me today and earlier, I started up with no problem and decided to remove the Windows partition and I restarted it again to confirm everything was ok. However, at the next startup, the problem re-surfaced and I could no longer start up my Mac Pro in SL.
    I tried to swopped back the original 320GB HDD, but the problem still persists. Before I send back my Mac Pro to the service centre tomorrow, I would like to have some 2nd opinions. Based on my description, what is the likely cause of this problem, is the newly replaced 640GB be the root cause?

    Do you keep Windows on its own hard drive?
    I would have kept the 320GB while using Windows WD Lifeguard to test, zero, run extended tests and slow long format of the new WD 640. Then just cloned system to new drive.
    Casper 6.0 seems to be great utility if you want to avoid reinstalling 7, though I've found 7 to be fast and easy to install even with dozens of programs to add.
    Are you using the current / latest graphic driver for 7? I don't notice you even list which card.
    RAM - there is no perfect test, AHT finds some while Memtest takes time and may find others.
    Windows may be more sensitive to weak hard drive sectors and memory than Mac OS or than HFS+.
    Do you have any 3rd party devices? PCIe? Cables etc?
    And you can't boot off Windows 7 DVD or Safe Mode?
    Windows should automatically offer to boot in Safe Mode.
    Also, try restore from last good restore point.

  • Hi everyone,I am new to this so please forgive me any mistakes I may make.Early 2008 Mac Pro desktop installed ML ok but next day nothing, reinstall ok restart same problem ML installer remains on my  snow leopard disk. Any help appreciated.Kind regards

    There I go first mistake straight off. I was wondering how to fit my big long problem in. My fault I am sure but if anyone can help please.
    Early 2008 Mac Pro Desk Top, 2 hard drives 1)snow leopard, 2)lion.
    I have downloaded Mountain Lion usuing disk 1,selected no.2 as my destination, installed ok everything fine, set my startup as no.2 in preferences, switch off. Next day start up - nothing, my only way to get moving was physcally remove disk 2, and let snow leopard restart.
    Reinstalled, everything fine, then same problem on restart next day, remove disk,and so on.
    The mountain Lion installer remains in the snow leopard dock.
    I know the problem is me, so if anyone is kind enough to be able to offer a solution it needs to be in easy speak (press button a, press button b) because I am not that savvy.
    my best regards to all, and thank you.

    Where did you get Mountain Lion? Did you download the 4+ GB file from the App Store? If so, then I would try doing the following:
    Drive Partition and Format
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your second drive on which Lion is installed (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Install Mountain Lion
    Double-click on the Mountain Lion Installer application in your Applications folder. Follow instructions to install Mountain Lion on your old Lion drive - Drive 2. When the installer finally finishes it will restart the computer automatically from Drive 2. At this point there is no need to change the Startup Disk unless you want to boot from your Snow Leopard drive.
    You will startup to the Setup Assistant in which you will configure your own admin account. You can, if you want, omit that part and instead choose to migrate your Home folder and other data from the Snow Leopard drive. I would recommend you do that unless you wish to do it manually at a later time. In this case create your new admin account using the exact same username and password that you now use on your Snow Leopard system.

  • Early 2008 Mac Pro Startup Problems.

    Hi all,
    I have an  Early 2008 Mac Pro - 2x 2.8ghz Intel Xeon Quad Core processors, 12 gigs of Ram, 1x Nvidia 8800GT graphics card and I am running Windows Vista 64bit through bootcamp. I am running Snow Leopard. I have one monitor it is a Samsung 226bw - 22inch and it is connected via dvi and vga on the monitor side.
    I have recently had my computer updated to the latest 10.65 (something like that).
    Anyway my current problem is that:
    a)The computer does not load up any operating systems and it is just a blank screen.
    b) Sometimes all you hear is the Apple loading Chime "doong" constantly, and a blank screen.
    c) Sometimes I can get to the windows selection screen for safe mode. I pick safe mode but it just goes to a blank screen. Also the monitor does not pick any signals up as it goes no source etc.
    What I have tried:
    a) I have changed the monitor cables 3 different ones.
    b) I have taken all the other hard drives out.
    c) I cannot get into Mac OSX or Windows Vista ( however Vista is the default OS right now)
    d) I can connect my main hdd and copy all my windows stuff, but I cannot see any of the apple osx.
    My suspicions are it is graphics card,or hard drive related.
    I have ordered a new graphics card a ATI Radeon 5770 ( wont come for 6days) and I have a new hard drive a WD Black Caviar 1tb.
    My Questions:
    a) I would like to know what your ideas are on my current situation and Mac Pro symptons.
    b) Is there a way I could format the WD Black Caviar HDD to a Mac Extended one in Windows on my laptop connected via sata?
    c) If "b" is possible could I then use my Mac Pro/Mac OSX or snow leopard discs to create a OSX for my Mac Pro?
    d) Or should I just wait for my graphics card to come and see if is just the Nvidia 8800gt failing?
    e) If it is not the graphics card then do you believe it is the hard drive? or could it be something else?
    Any assistance would be kindly appreciated.
    KInd Regards
    Bobby

    Vista on its own hard drive? Windows doesn't like to move the drive bay.
    you could boot from Vista DVD (I'd upgrade to Windows 7 SP1 when possible)
    clone backups - for both
    emergency boot drive / OS X DVD - you can, and should, always have more than one Mac OS boot volume handy.  So yes use 10.6 DVD
    Preventative and disk maintenance (Disk Warrior etc)
    You would need something like MacDrive8 or Paragon HFS8 to really have good access to HFS from Vista assuming the volume is safe to mount and access.

  • Power problems with Radeon 3870 on 2008 Mac Pro

    I've got a 2008 Mac Pro (10.5.7) and I've replaced the 2600 card that came in it with two Radeon HD 3870s and I am having an issue.
    The cards are in slots 1&2 (the higher speed slots.) After a short period of time, the card in slot 1 powers off its monitors, but the monitors on the second card remain active. Only a reboot reactivates the monitors on the first card.
    In the process of debugging this I've removed all cards and put 1 3870 in slot 1. The problem remained.
    I swapped in the other card in slot 1. The problem remained.
    I then tried each card in slot 2. The problem remained.
    I've reinstalled the 10.5.7 updater, but this didn't help either.

    Now enough free space on the disk can slow the entire system down.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info then select Storage from the menu.
    Make sure there's at least 15% available space.

  • I have an early 2008 Mac Pro and want to install a 3TB internal hard drive. Is this compatible? The manual indicates 1 TB per bay, but I have already installed two 2 TB hard drives in two other bays, and have had no problems. Any suggestions?

    RE: SATA Bus speed:
    Typical Rotating drives available today, whatever their SATA spec, can source data off the spinning platters no faster than about 125MBytes/sec.
    SATA 3 is rated at 6G bits/sec, which theoretically is about 750 Mega Bytes/sec
    SATA 2 is rated at 3G bits/sec, which is theoretically about 375 Mega Bytes/sec
    SATA 1 is rated at 1.5G bits/sec, which is theoretically about 187.5 Meg Bytes/sec
    None of the SATA Busses is a bottleneck for consumer Rotating drives you can buy today. Trying to speed up the SATA Bus will not provide any real-world performance increases for Rotating Drives.

  • 2008 mac pro problems with open directory on 10.7.3 server

    I am trying to set login policies for network users on a 2008 Mac Pro running 10.7.3 and failing miserably.
    Let me start by saying that I am doing this successfully with 6 other laptops and another Mac Pro (2011 version) with absolutley zero issues. However no matter what I do I cannot seem to get this 2008 Mac Pro to work.
    The system in question is connected via WiFI (as are some of the other systems). I am using the mac address of the WiFI (as I am on the other systems) and have tried managing this system individually and in a group each of which fail.
    Any suggestions or knowledge of an issue with these early systems would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    John

    Another observation is that the system I am trying to manage does not appear in the finder under "shared" on any of the other systems on the network.
    Also for what it is worth, this system was completely reformatted and the OS reinstalled so I do not think it is an issue with some leftover artifact from an older configuration.

  • Apple's ink preference option, randomly appears 2008 Mac Pro???

    Ink or inkwell. Is Apple's own handwriting recognition program It is included in leopard and is only available if your mac detects the presence of a wacom tablet.
    I don't have a wacom tablet, nor have I ever used one. Yet the ink icon has just recently began appearing randomly. A small menu icon, appears next to the volume control in the menu bar. It also appears under system preferences between keyboard and mouse and the print and fax preferences.
    The ink icon and preference option will just mysteriously also disappear within a few minutes.
    I don't have a wireless card in my mac pro. I also double checked to see if all bluetooth options are turn off. I have two hard drives both with separate installations of OS X. This has happened on both installs.
    The only thing new is a airport extreme base station. The airport is being used by only two computers my 2008 mac pro and a imac out in the living room. Both are using ethernet no wireless.
    At first I suspected the airport was picking up a stray signal from a neighbor using a wacom tablet.
    But I think thats unlikely since any wireless tablet would be using bluetooth.
    I did also upgrade to ilife 09. Again I don't see how ilife 09 could cause trouble like this.
    I have googled to see if anyone else may have experienced anything like this. I have found nothing helpful.
    Any one have any ideas To what might cause this?

    Anyone?

  • Early-2008 Mac Pro startup - sometimes it does, sometimes it don't.

    I have an early-2008 Mac Pro running Mavericks. Having issues with start up - powering up is intermittent - sometimes it does, sometimes it don't. I have had some success by unplugging it overnight, and it boots up once plugged back in the AM. I have been able to restart and zap the PRAM; I have also changed the battery. Thoughts?

    You could have a problem with file corruption or your hard drive is going south. I would try moving your system to another hard drive then set that drive as the startup. See if the problem is resolved.
    You can also try reinstalling Mavericks:
    Reinstall Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • My 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    My 2006 - 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV 1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. However, when I open the project on my other Mac Pro running Snow Leopard and FCP 6, the footage works fine as it does on my newer Imac running Mavericks and FCP 7. I have tried a Quicktime update on the Mac Pro that the footage doesn't work on but it says that I already have the newest version of Quicktime installed. I have also tried reinstalling the Final Cut Pro Studio twice, still no fix. I'm completely out of solutions and need to be able to edit HDV footage on this machine. Any help would be great. Thanks.

    there was a recent software update that seemed to screw HDV up.  Do some searching here over the last month or 2 and you'll find a bunch of posts and some possible solutions.
    Worst case scenario, do as Shane suggests.  But might I suggest you take a look at the user tips section of the forum.  there are some great tips on how to prevent these sorts of problems by cloning your startup drive, etc.

  • Lion will not install on a January 2008 Mac Pro (3.1)

    I have a January 2008 Mac Pro (version 3.1) and I'm trying to install Lion on one of the hard drives in the main chassis. It has consistently failed.
    I have tried:
    Reseating memory
    Reseathing hard drives
    Zap PRAM
    Reset SMC
    Downloaded 4 fresh copies of Lion from the App Store
    Install from the installer file
    Install from a DVD made with InstallESD.DMG
    Yet, it fails consistently.
    I have 5 log files I'm willing to share, but they almost always look like this one. Some of them fail on different pkg's, but in general, this one seems to be the most regular failure. It's like the filesystem just dies in the middle of the install.
    Any insight would be GREATLY appreciated.

    I figured out the problem.
    This is going to sound a little crazy, but I've spent a lot of time on this one.
    There's some kind of incompatibility with Lion and Seagate ST31000340AS drives. I was trying to install Lion on these drives and it would consistently fail. I've also tried to use these drives in a RAID volume. No go. I tried three different drives of this model. All of them failed.
    I tried to install Lion on a Seagate ST31000528AS and it worked first time and sings beautifully.
