File Transfer Issue on Mac Pro System

Hey guys, I have a Mac Pro with a Burly RAID system hooked up. We have two slots on our RAID that are for what we call "Library Drives" that are independent from the RAID and are used to transfer files between one of our editing systems and the other one we have (which has an identical setup).
I have a G-RAID 1.5TB hard drive with footage on it that I need on one of my Library drives. I select it all and drag it over to my library drives but a while into it I always get "The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items". The G-RAID ejects itself when this error occurs.
I have made sure that all of the directories and all of the files are "Read and Write" for everyone and even applied it to all of the contents. I also made sure "Ignore ownership" was selected. I also tried making the folder and copying the contents as opposed to copying the folder itself to see if that did anything (at someone's suggestion) and it still is giving me the error.
We managed to transfer the G-RAID files right to the other computer via FireWire 800 but that is unacceptable as we need these Library drives to be the go-between. (this eliminates the possibility of it being one file alone).
The setup we need to work is as follows.
G-RAID Archive --> FireWire Hub --> Mac Pro --> Library Drive on HDD Deck
Any help is much obliged. Thanks =)

I'd start with the hub.
Another thing that can happen is the power supply brick to the G-Raid could be intermittently failing. When this happens, the drive will try and pull the necessary juice from the bus and that could mean the hub, another drive or the Mac itself. This makes it tough to troubleshoot.
Definitely eliminate everything you possibly can between the Mac and the external drive and disconnect all other firewire peripherals just to eliminate them from the picture.

Illustrator CS3 and CS4 crashes on two different Mac Pro systems

We have two Mac pro systems. Both are running 10.5.6. As of this morning both systems crash when trying to save files from Illustrator CS3 and CS4.
I'm not sure if this started with a corrupted file, and when we tried to work with it on both machines it effected both.
Does anyone have an idea?

Do use TimeMachine for data;
SuperDuper for imaging the system;
Clone the system at least twice: known good backup image and for testing.
Clone or image can be just a sparse image created with Disk Utility.
I would also keep user accounts separate from the system and on 2nd drive.
Rather than reinstall, use alternate systems. You may even need to do what others have learned to, one system for specific task or configuration.
Use different user accounts.
Don't rule out plist or preference settings or corruption.
Normally I use Disk Warrior to keep a system maintained but TechTool Pro (5.01) will do more to check files for integrity and errors, and useful addition.
If I was building a sytem today, I'd probably use 10K WD VelociRaptor or two for system, some scratch drives in stripped RAID for editing and saving work, and then media drive(s). With 3 backup sets of work.
Apple now sells OS X 10.5.6 on DVD, replacing the 10.5.4 (and 10.5.0, shame there is no upgrade program) so they must feel 10.5.6 is gold. Not all software and hardware though does, but Sonnet just posted updates for their SATA Tempo card drivers. When it comes to production, newest and latest is not usually best.

How do I open my H&R Block tax files, transferred to my Mac Pro from my PC? I guess they're in Windows format,but I don't know how to convert.

CaptainTom1

There should be an H&R block format. Windows or no.
Just like JPEG or MP3 is a format readable by Mac or PC.
The main cause of PC vsWindows files issues is in "text only" files that require "line terminators". Windows line terminaotrs are <CR><LF>, UNIX is <LF>, Mac can be <CR> or a <LF>. The text editors that are PC-files-only cannot properly read text lines terminated with <LF> only.

Powercore core express (3.0.2) and overloads on mac pro systems

Hi,
just found this info regarding the 3.0.2 software update for TC powercore:
"Known issues: On some Mac Pro systems, loading multiple plug-ins on a powercore express can create overloads and drop-outs. If you experience this please get in touch with TC support team"
Cheers Eddie

Hi,
I have the same problem. Moved my M500 960 Gb from my MBP 17" early 2011 due to graphic card failure (a shame Apple does not offer a recall for this factory faulty units), and then purchased a USB 3.0 enclosure and when connected to my MBP 15" purchased on may 2014, it finds the drive and then drops it almost immediately with the disconnection message usually OS X shows when abruptly disconnecting a mounted drive.
Maybe the drive is dwaing too much power from the USB ? Maybe OS X is dropping the connection due to a driver problem ? I don't know for sure.
I hope someone could give us some light and this could be solved without having to carry around a powered USB hub.
Regards.

Mac Pro / System Gets "Choppy" / File Goes Missing

Hi all,
I recently got a Mac Pro Quad-Core ($2,499 stock model) MB871LL1/A. I am using a Microsoft Intellimouse Optical and MS Comfort Curve Keyboard 2000 that did not come with the system itself that has never given me problems before.
For the first few nights, everything seemed fine with the included iLife apps (such as iMovie, iDVD, etc)
I later received the Final Cut Studio 3 Upgrade last night, so I installed and started experimenting with applications. Namely. FCP and Motion. Earlier projects were updated and saved and rendered speedy and normal.
Two things happened while rendering a NEW project with either Motion 4 itself as well as Compressor 3.5:
ISSUES:
1. Mouse movement became extremely erratic, and the cursor would jump across the screen instantaneously. I couldn't control the mouse at all. Every movement would cause the cursor to jump around erratically. It felt like someone may have been sabotaging the mouse movement! I turned Bluetooth off as well as disconnected my LAN cable just to be sure. Still happening.
2. System 'responsiveness' became very choppy, and in some cases would remain that way after closing the apps (though not always).
3. I rebooted my system and reloaded my project. The project used just one font (Garamond). Motion reported that the font was missing - I checked with Font Book as well as the /Fonts directory itself and Garamond was indeed erased from the system.
SOLUTIONS?
I tried using "Rember" (freeware memtest app) and RAM checked out fine. Disk Utility reported the disk was fine.
I may consider re installing everything before my Genius Bar appointment (next available is "Tuesday 9:15am" at my nearest store), and I'd like to think that it's just this project file causing the problem (it's basically one Camera that dollies forward through four words in 3d space, pretty simple). However I want to prevent this from happening again and I'm worried there might be something wonky in the hardware on my Mac.
I know this is all very strange, but has anyone heard of an issue like this or might know why that was happening?

Jumpy mice gets mentioned, some attribute it to video problems I think.
I assume you have the latest MS Optical driver.
Always clone a system before installing apps or updates so you have a backup you can boot from.
Don't rely on just Apple DU First Aid. Time to invest in 3rd party, though if you plan on jumping to Snow immediately might want to wait on that.
You may find 3GB RAM is just not going to cut it though, that is extremely minimum and base system, not what you want for what you are doing. With quad 4-dimm setup, I'd look at either 4 x 2GB or 3 x 4GB to give you 8-12GB RAM. 3 x 2GB should be minimum (unless just using it for email and web).
Also, optimize your files and storage if you haven't: boot drive, editing and scratch, media files on 3rd drive, maybe setup 2-3 drive RAID at some point.
Lot of adjusting and changes that go along with any new system regardless of what you ran before.

Transfer of Files from G5 to Mac Pro

My mac Pro is on it's way, I currently have a G5 with 2 hard drives, the drive in bay 2 has just beig used for Time Machine back ups, can I just slam that drive into bay 3 of the Mac Pro and transfer Itunes, iphoto, and my documents?
How did you transfer your work, info appreciated,

Yes, you can do that provided the drive is a SATA drive, which it should be. Read the following:
Folders You Can Move to Your new Mac
From the Home folder copy the contents of Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist (* This is a very important file which contains all email account settings and general mail preferences.)
/Home/Library/Preferences/ copy any preferences needed for third-party applications
/Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)
/Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist
/Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist

Firewire transfer G4 to Mac Pro

I've just purchased a Mac Pro and want to transfer photo and text documents from my G4. (I'm familiar with the procedure for booting the G4 in Target Mode, having done this in the past with an iBook and my G4.)
The G4 is still running OS 9.1 I will not be transfering any apps, plug-ins, downloads, libraries, fonts, etc. I only need to transfer AppleWorks documents and image files that are in tiff, jpeg, psd, or raw format.
Does it pose a problem that one machine is still on OS 9 and the other is a Mac Pro?
Thanks for your help.
Mac Pro 2.66 4GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.8) G4 DP500; G3 iBook

Should be no problems for data only transfers.
There is no AppleWorks on the Mac Pro although if you own AppleWorks (OS X version) you can run AppleWorks on the Mac Pro. If you own the OS 9 version of AW you can upgrade to the OS X version (6.2.9) from Apple's download site.

Changing from G5 to new Mac Pro system

Hello Mac users,
I did search the forum for answers to my question, did not find any right away.
I have been using a Mac PPC G5 since 2004 or so. I am running Leopard 10.xx on this PPC. Due to requirements in software (seems more new software is for Intel version only) I have decided to break down and get a new Intel Mac Pro (dual 2.8, etc).
I have 2 G-Tech external firewire drives, and 1 internal SATA, and 1 external SATA to Firewire drive. All these drives are formatted as Extended, non-journaling (only 1 partition on each). Will the new mac read these drives without issue? I plan to place the external SATA/Firewire (It is in an ICY Dock) in to one of the spare bays in the new system. This drives carry the bulk of my data.
I have many applications, iPhoto 6, iMovie 6, Aperture, Final Cut Studio, and a few others. I plan to re-install all these apps on the new machine. I might try to copy my pref files for final cut and soundtrack to the new system.
I would also like to copy all the data under my user name on the "Macintosh HD" to the same username on the new mac. I plan to have the same user names on the new system.
I am trying to cover all the pitfalls in moving from my old system to the new one. I have seen postings recommending not using the setup assistant or the migration assistant to accomplish these tasks, and I do not mind reloading the apps, too much, particularly if it is safer!
any tips or advice on the process will be appreciated.

Yes.

Check your applications for compatibility; unless you need to use the older iLife applications, don't install them. If you need to use the older iMovie only, use this download instead of the version on the PowerMac. Preference files don't need to be checked.
I would also like to copy all the data under my user name on the "Macintosh HD" to the same username on the new mac. I plan to have the same user names on the new system.
Create the accounts in the same order they were initially created.

Windows 7 Install Issues with Mac Pro

I have Mac Pro with Windows XP SP3 installed with Boot Camp on a separate, dedicated 250GB HD.
I purchased an upgrade version of Windows 7 Home Premium. I hoped to install the 64-bit version. I upgraded, per Boot Camp I&S Guide, Boot Camp to version 3.1. After Boot Camp upgrade, I mounted the Windows 7 64-bit installation disk. Since the Windows disk did not open automatically, I then attempted to open the Setup.exe file but got the following error message –
“D:/setup.exe is not a valid Win 32 application.”
I suspect the Boot Camp 3.1 upgrade was for the 32-bit Windows XP system currently installed and this caused Windows 7 (64-bit) not to open.
If my suspicion is correct, would upgrading to Boot Camp 3.1 (64-bit) cause problems with the currently installed Windows XP? Any advice would be appreciated.

I have since attempted to boot from the Windows 7 install disk by using both the OS 10.6.3 System Preferences/Startup Disk and from within Windows XP using the Boot Camp Control Panel. In both cases, all I saw was a black screen with a “Select CD-ROM Boot Type” and flashing cursor. No keyboard input was possible.
If anyone encounters this problem, go to the Boot Camp/Installation and Storage discussion and search for “Select CD-ROM Boot Type”. Hal Jay Greene has an excellent article here titled “Select CD-ROM Boot Type Error installing Windows 7 in Boot Camp walkthrough” dated Mar 20, 2010 that walks one through the process of creating a boot disk for installing Windows 7 x64. Two minor comments on his discussion. John Anderson’s blog is at www.AndersonsHatch.com (note extra s) and Imgburn can be downloaded free from www.imgburn.com.
I used Mr. Greene’s procedure and the resultant boot disk loaded Windows 7 correctly.
Unfortunately, a new issue arose. Installing Windows 7 over Windows XP requires a clean install that eliminates all Boot Camp installations. After installing Windows 7, I attempted to load Boot Camp by inserting the Mac SL installation disk and clicking on Setup in the Boot Camp folder. The result was this error message: “Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model”. Fortunately, there is a procedure that worked for me, and my MacPro, to bypass this error message. It can be found near the bottom of this article http://blog.andersonshatch.com/2009/01/11/windows-7-x64-on-a-macbook-pro-guide/ on John Anderson’s blog.

Transfer software from Mac Pro 1,1 to apple laptop, possible?

Is it possible to transfer all files and software from a Mac Pro 1,1 to a new apple laptop (I havent decided which model yet)? I do not have all the original CDs for some of the software...will they still work?

The general answer is, Yes. You can use Migration Assistant or Setup Assistant to make the transfer of your Home folder, third-party applications and support files, and system preferences.
But not all licensed software will work. Some software is smart enough to know it's been moved and will ask you to enter the registration number. In this case you will need to contact the developer about obtaining a new one or copy of the old one.
I suggest using the Setup Assistant that appears when you startup the new computer for the first time. You will need to have the two computers connected. The best way for this is to use Firewire 800. That requires that the new computer has a Firewire port. Some do not. These models have only Thunderbolt ports. To use them you will need both a Thunderbolt cable and Apple's Thunderbolt to Firewire adaptor.

WRT350N File Transfer Issues...

I'm unable to transfer files from one PC to the other. I've upgraded the firmware to the latest revision (1.03.2). PC1 is my laptop from work. At work, I can connect to it w/o any problem and transfer files to/from any PC on the work network.
From home, If I attempt to connect to the laptop from the home computer, XP Pro comes back w/ "Cannot find...". This should be fairly simple, but I can't seem to get it working. I had the same problem w/ my other Linksys router before it died. I went w/ the WRT350n because of the 1GB transfer rate between computers.
If I attempt to ping the laptop from the desktop, I get the correct results. Going from the desktop from the laptop, no such luck. Both systems are in the same workgroup and running XP Pro.
If I attempt to RDC into either system, I'm prompted for a username & password. I receive the "This computer can't connect..." error. Single Port Forwarding w/ port 3389 is enabled.
I've just about given up... Anyone have any ideas?

I have this exact issue on my new WRT 610. I'm all connected between laptop (Vista Home Premium) and desktop (Vista Ult), but when I try to copy files from a shared dir on the desktop to my laptop, it works ok for a while and then STOPS dead in the water after 10-15 mins and says "file is no longer located at location xxxxx". Basically, my connection severs at that point, in midstream, because I can't even see the desktop anymore from the laptop until I reboot (I just reboot both machines). This thread seems to indicate that shutting down the firewalls on both machines is the solution and thus is ok to do, but I'm unsure of that solution and scared to implement it. I did a search and it seems that it is NOT recommended to shut down the Vista firewall even tho I have the hardware firewall now... because only the Vista firewall can monitor the outgoing connections and halt them... is this true? Appreciate feedback, in the meantime I will risk it for a half hour and shut them down and see if the transfer goes longer and/or quicker. My transfer speed between the two 'puters is disappointingly slow altho I can't quote an exact speed... 70 megs of files was gonna take 2 hrs and 30 mins per the windows popup.
P.S. Can someone please explain why the Vista firewall would be the issue here? Why would it allow the transfer for 15 mins and 4-5 MB but then slice the connection? Wouldn't it either allow the full file transfer or else not allow it at all? I don't understand.

Startup disc full after file transfer from old mac

Hi everyone,
I had a Macbook pro that was about 6 years old until I bought a new Macbook Air. I tried to transfer my files via the migration assistant but it didn't work, so I backed everything up onto an external hard drive and then transferred everything via that onto my new macbook air. All the files saved onto my desktop in a file called "Olivia's MacBook Pro", but none of the files are directly linked to my new air (i.e., I can access my old pictures through my desktop but they aren't in my new iPhoto). The issue I'm having is that I often get a popup that says my startup disc is full. I followed directions on old threads that said to download omnidiscsweeper, which I did, and all the room is being taken up by that folder of all my old stuff on my desktop (~185 GB).
My question is- do I just have too much stuff? Is there a way to keep my pictures and such on my new computer without always getting this error message and having to shut down different applications? Please help! I am not very computer savvy
Thanks so much for reading.
PS- appx 76 GB of my computer storage is movies...but I don't have any movies saved on here that I know of... another 72 GB is "Other".
Thanks!!

Frankly, You'll probably waste more time and effort than if you just got a Firewire cable. I'm pretty sure you'll need to have a cross connect Ethernet Cable (I usually make my own, not sure where you'd buy one) to connect them via ethernet, and even then you still have to mess around with getting them to talk to each other. Other option is to plug both computers into a hub or switch, or better yet a router.
Another option is to spend $20 on a usb adapter that can connect any drive to your Mac. [Here is one that I have|http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo =2329300&CatId=3770] from Tiger Direct that works quite well.

Slow transfer speeds between Mac Pro and Shared Drive on Windows Domain

Hi Guys,
Getting really slow transfer speeds when I try and transfer a file from a Mac Pro to a shared network drive on one of our Windows 2003 Servers.
The Mac Pro is logged on to windows domain. This data is transferring via our hard network, not via wireless. Not having any other transfer speed issues on any other PC's.
For example an 8mb file took around 45 mins.
Hope you can help. Many Thanks.

I saw this at a site where they were using DFS with Server 2003. When the few Mac's they had connected to the actual server and uploaded the file it was okay. But when it was sending the file via the \\DFS_node\share_name the Mac took heaps longer for the same file. Watching the Activity Monitor > Network monitor you could see gaps with the data transfer, as if there was some pausing between packets. A pcap showed that there was constant DNS requests coming from the Mac, even after the connection to the share was made. The same wasn't happening when the connection via SMB was directly to the actual file server. As there was only a few Mac on site they left it with the direct connection but were getting an MS specialist in to look at it. Never heard what happened with that one but you may want to try monitoring the packet transfer to see if the data movement is contstant or breaking. I'd also recommend getting Wireshark to monitor the transfer. You can compare upload to download and maybe even the transfer from the Mac to an MS workgroup share.

Looking for advice on a new Mac Pro system mainly for Final Cut Studio 2

We are a small video production company that works mainly on broadcast and internet projects. We're looking to upgrade from an aging Avid system to a Mac Pro running Final Cut Studio 2. The primary thing we want from this system is to be able to work quickly in Final Cut while at the same time doing other operations, and we're willing to spend what it takes to make that happen. We've done a lot of research but still have some issues where we could use your expertise - it's a big investment and we want to nail it.
Here's the configuration we're considering:
Processor: Two 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon (8-core)
Memory: 16GB (4 x 4GB)
Hard Drives: 300GB 15,000-rpm SAS (for OS X, Final Cut, & other programs) plus 2 x 1TB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s (for video storage)
Graphics: NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600
We're thinking about spending the extra $1600 to get the best processor available, since we want this machine to be the hub of the business for about five years. Any thoughts on whether to save a bit and go with the 2.8GHz? We've also heard the bus speed presents a bottleneck so the Quad-Core processing power can't be fully utilized - should that have any bearing on our processor decision?
The memory choice seems right - we'll see how well that works and retain the option to double the RAM, particularly as prices fall and new applications or hardware upgrades become tenable. However, we're thinking of perhaps buying some or all of the memory third-party - any advice on whether this tends to be worthwhile, where to get it, and what to watch out for? It looks like there may some issues with getting proper heat-sinking.
We like the hard drive plan, though we've heard a 15,000-rpm drive may generate a lot of heat - any thoughts on this?
The graphics card is where we're most torn - specifically between the Quadro 5600, the GeForce 8800, or perhaps even getting the computer with the standard card (or no card) and getting a different third-party card. We do mostly DV now, but we foresee doing HD projects in the future. We often use a green-screen that's in our studio and also apply minimal 3D effects as well as 3D text. We're debating whether to get the Quadro 5600 right off the bat and hopefully have no issues with it, or whether to get the GeForce 8800 for now and if we have issues then consider upgrading to the Quadro 5600 or potentially something else that would best suit our needs at that time. Would love to receive any and all advice on this issue.
Also, it looks like we're gonna buy Final Cut Studio 2 and are considering also getting Final Cut Server. It seems the combination would allows us to use the Final Cut suite on other computers (both Mac and Wintel) that don't have their own version of Final Cut installed. Is that the correct interpretation? Any other advice on whether to get FC Server would be appreciated.
Thanks very much for reading - we look forward to getting any and all advice you may have.

*Don't do it!* Stick with the dual-2.8GHz config. A jump from that to the dual-3.2GHz gains you only an approximate 9% increase in power at a 52% increase in cost! Not worth it all. That money is much wiser spent on RAM, RAID array, or a broadcast monitor.
Memory: 16GB (4 x 4GB)

The processor is only one part of the whole, and as I just mentioned, the power:cost benefits are not good.

Quadro 5600 is pricey, but I'm not sure about its benefits for people in our field. Even if I had the money for it, I would be hard pressed to consider it considering, again, money is liekly wiser spent elsewhere.
Also, it looks like we're gonna buy Final Cut Studio 2 and are considering also getting Final Cut Server. It seems the combination would allows us to use the Final Cut suite on other computers (both Mac and Wintel) that don't have their own version of Final Cut installed. Is that the correct interpretation?
I don't know much about FCServer, but my impression is that it is -- simply speaking -- Final Cut version of Avid Unity. In other words, I am pretty certain that your understanding on that is false. I may be wrong.
