Full HD-Screen only running on max 1280x1024 (or 1344x1008 in 4:3)

Hey there,
I just set up my 13" MacBook Pro (Mid 2012) via Thunderbold-DVI-Adapter to a 22"-Full HD-Screen.
Unfortunately the max. Resolution I could set is 1280x1024 (in widescreen) or 1344x1008 (in 4:3).
What do I have to do, to increase the resolution?
Thank you!

IMac mid 2007, 2.4 Ghz, 800 MHz... Grey screen only, running OS 10.5.8. Tried reinstalling, restoring, and resetting but to no avail. Possible to install OS 10.6 and get it to boot?

Try to boot and only getGrey screen, sometimes with the globe f
Asking, sometimes not.
I am running OS 10.5.8. Tried reinstalling, restoring, and resetting both with installation disc and without, but to no avail.
I recently upgraded from 1GB memory to 4 GB. It ran great for a couple of weeks, when I eventually powered it off, it would not come back. With installation disc, I did get to the utilities and tried repair and even reinstall original OS (several updates down from 10.5.8). At one point, I was able to restore a previous session, but it only lasted for about 3 days until I powered it off again, then back to square 1. I have verified the Macintosh HD disc and repaired it, I have reset everything I can find that might need resetting... Still nothing.
SO, is it toast, or is it possible to install OS 10.6 and get it to boot?

Erase the drive then install OS X:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
If you are preparing an external or a non-startup drive, then open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (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 Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
If this doesn't work then the drive is probably bad or some of the new RAM you installed is marginally defective.

Screen Saver runs only on Main Screen

My screen saver, programmed to display a montage of iPhotos on two screens, used to work fine but is now working only on the main screen. The second screen stays black and displays (in white letters), "Looking for pictures..."
_I have not selected +*Main Screen Only*+ in +Screen Saver+ Preferences._
If I click on the Test button in +Screen Saver+ Preferences, the screen saver photos appear on both screens, but if the screen saver activates on its own, or if I activate it from a hot corner, the photos appear only on the main screen. Anybody know what's up?

It's a bug in 10.5.6. What you should do is make export a copy of your photos that you want displayed from iPhoto to a folder. Put that folder wherever you want, probably ~/Pictures
Then tell the screen saver app to pull the images from there and it will work again on both of your displays. Very annoying.

Strange: Mac screen menu-bar requires max-heap-size to be set.

I planned to omit the max-heap-size attribute in the line of my jnlp file
<j2se version="1.6+" max-heap-size="256m" />
The idea was that with Java 1.6 the heap size is set automatically
according to the client's RAM.
Unfortunately, the Macintosh screen menu-bar works if and only if the max-heap-size attribute is present.
It is a MacOsX=1.4 with Java1.5.
Strange, since the Mac runs Java 1.5 and I am talking about settings for 1.6.
The jnlp passed ValidateJNLP at http://mindprod.com/jgloss/jnlp.html#VALIDATION
Here is another post stating that attributes in JNLP have side effects on Mac's screen menu-bar:
http://lists.apple.com/archives/Java-dev/2008/Jul/msg00122.html
Here is my jnlp:
w3m -dump http://www.bioinformatics.org/strap/strap.jnlp
Is there an explanation for this?

If the jdk would be smaller, less redundant and clearer, then
open JDK could be possibly compiled on a Mac.
Not sure what that means since there are likely OS level calls that must be implemented in some place in the API. Which are specific to Mac.
Just as there are differences between windows/solaris/linux which Sun accounted for.
And that would be what Apple would have done to make it work on Mac. And what someone (someone who likes Mac) will need to continue to do with the public release (explusion?) which is the form that Java will have going forward.
The main thing that should be improved on a Macintosh
is to directly allow for Linux and Solaris executables such that the Linux JDK could directly work on a Mac.The main thing, again, is the Apple is no longer supporting Java on the Mac.
And Apple, not Sun and certainly not Oracle, were the ones that created the Java VM.
So the main thing at this point is that ALL future directions that Java take are dependent not on Apple but on the Macintosh community. That includes features as well as fixes.

My external 27" AOC display only runs with 1080p

My external 27" AOC display only runs with 1080p, even though my 27" iMac is capable of 2560x1440 via the attached mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. How can I get 2560x1440?
When I run recovery mode, then I get the full 2560x1440 pixels. But when I boot back to 10.9.2, then I can only choose a maximum of 1080p.

After some hours I found a solution...
But let me vent a little bit first: My MacBook Air, which I have not yet upgraded to Mavericks, is able to drive the AOC display through DisplayPort at full resolution without a problem.
Even an older lenovo Notebook with Windows 7 immediatelly used the intended resolution when hooking up the 27" screen. Windows 7 outplaying Mavericks. Oh boy...
So it seems, that Mavericks introduced some "improvement" that limitd "unknown" displays to 1080p...
By the way: Clearing PRAM didn't resolve my issue. Neither did holding down the Option key when klicking in the "Scaled" button in the screen resolution area of the system preferences for my screen.
Anyway: I found out that I can use the plist file for a DELL 27" screen, which google found for me, copy this to /System/Library/Displays/Overrides and then rename the folder and file to match the ID I got back from ioreg.
Obviously one has to be careful when mixing hardware data in this way. But since a modern screen will simply refuse to be driven with a signal that is out of spec, and since there are not too many different 27" pannels with 2560x1440 out there these days, this felt like a pretty safe thing to do... Your mileage may vary though!
Unfortunately I don't have a plist editor installed. Thus I can only look at the XML contained in the plist file. With the plist editor from Mac (-> dev tools) it should be possible to edit available resolutions directly (in hex).

HP xw8600 workstation fans run at max all the time after upgrading CPUs and memory

Hello, This is my 1st post on the forums here so I would like to thank everyone for the help ahead of time. I have an HP xw8600 workstation on which I have upgraded the CPUs and RAM recently - after the upgrade the fans seem to spin at full speed all the time (not just under load). Before the upgrading the fans were barely heard but afterwords the workstation has become very loud. This seems odd that the fans always run fast now and seems like this is not "normal" - what needs to be done to allow the fans to again be modulated by load/temp settings as designed? I looked in the temp and fan RPM settings in the BIOS and it looks like all sensors are working (including ambient temp sensor - was stating around 20 deg. C). Hardware changes:Before - CPU: 2x Intel Xeon X5460/ 3.16 GHz, 12MB L2, 1333 MHz, FSB,120WRAM: HP 32GB (16x2GB) DDR2-667 ECC FBD RAM - using RAM riser After -CPU: 2x Intel Xeon X5492/ 3.40 GHz, 12MB L2, 1600 MHz, FSB,150WRAM: HP 32GB (8x4GB) DDR2-800 ECC FBD RAM - using RAM riser NOTE: From the HP spec sheet it says that 32GB(8x4GB) is not supported by 5492... I am not sure why this is so and do not know if this has anything to do with my fans running very fast. HP 32GB(8x4GB)DDR2-800 ECC FBD RAM RISER Supported ONLY w/dual processors
5272, 5472, 5482 HP 64GB (16x4GB) DDR2-800 ECC FBD RAM Supported ONLY w/dual processors
5272, 5472, 5482 and 5492.
Acoustics waiver required. Other than the constantly loud fans the workstation works perfectly with the new setup. Please let me know if anyone has run into this issue with the fast fans and whether there is a fix for this (maybe flashing BIOS?). Any advice is greatly appreciated! [I originally posted this under Desktops section - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware/HP-xw8600-workstation-fans-run-at-max-all-the-time-after/td-p/3929746]

The xw8600 has a motherboard firmware setting that if it detects high powered processors in place it wants to see the "double tall" performance heatsink/double fans per heatsink in place. I have posted about that and how I rewired a double tall to use side by side in my xw8400 next to a single tall heatsink/fan to see how cooling was affected in that workstation. The xw8400 did not ever come with double tall performance heatsinks, to my knowledge, so its motherboard's firmware is different. In those posts I also explained how to do a simple jumper wire modification on a single tall heatsink to spoof the xw8600 into thinking it had a double tall/two fans in place over each processor. Simple and quick. So, you might want to get a couple of double talls off eBay, or try the jumper wire trick. I'd personally advise to get the double tall heatsinks given that you're running 150W max TDP processors. If I remember correctly HP wanted you to use the double talls for 120W max TDP and above. I'd feel comfortable using that trick on a set of 120 watt processors if I was not hammering them frequently, but it sounds like you're a high level power user. The all-fans-on-high can be due to a failed thermisitor in the front power cable reading ambient air temps too high, but you can check that in BIOS to see the temp and it sounds like yours is not elevated incorrectly. You can search for my experience with that in a xw6600, and it is an easy $8.00-$12.00 fix with a new cable off eBay. You'd want the longer version for the xw8600, versus the shorter one for the xw6600. Finally, maybe you've just gone too high in your total wattage use? Those risers can run hot and draw lots of power. Could you live with less ram and get rid of the risers using 4GB sticks? Sometimes those prior prohibitions regarding what is and is not supported go away with later BIOS updates. Is your BIOS the latest? Welcome, and let us know what turns out to be the problem so others can benefit too. Scott

Grey Screen Only - I've Tried Many Remedies

Last night, all seemed well with my computer when I shut down.
Now, on startup, there is a short delay, the Mac chime, and then grey screen. No cursor. No mac symbol of any sort. It will not go past grey screen only.
I only need to hold the power button for a moment to shut down after the grey screen. From what I've read it sounds like some people may have to hold it longer, but I don't.
I've tried the following remedies, shutting down after each to look for some sort of change.
1) I've unplugged all devices except for the keyboard and one monitor and restarted. No change on restart.
2) I've attempted a Safe Boot, holding shift while starting. No change on restart.
3) I've reset the NVRAM / PRAM, and the second chime rings out as it should. After letting off cmd-opt-P-R, it goes back to grey screen. No change on restart.
4) I attempted to use Disc Utility from the Install Disc. Starting up holding the mouse down didn't open the optical drive, so I opened it with a paperclip. I inserted the install disc. I shut down and started again holding C, and it wouldn't start from the disc. No change.
5) I've checked all cables. Unplugged and plugged back in. The computer and monitor have power, and the computer at least momentarily recognizes the keyboard long enough to perform a PRAM Reset, but doesn't respond to any other startup shortcuts that I know.
6) I have no third-party ram or internal hardware to remove.
7) I cannot start up off a disc, so I cannot perform an Archive And Install or an Erase And Install.

Thank you for the prompt reply!
I have 2 backups. I have Time Machine running in the background to one external drive, AND I occasionally (especially after doing extremely important work) clone all my internal drives to dedicated external drives using Carbon Copy Cloner.
I started up from my cloned OS drive. It works just fine. I then re-installed the old OS drive, and it's back to grey screen. Does it sound like drive failure to you?
I could use just a little more feedback.
My cloned OS that functions is not as up to date as my latest Time Machine backup. I haven't needed to use Time Machine yet, so I'd like a suggestion. At this point, should I try to restore individual files, or should I startup on the installer disc and "Restore System from Backup"?
If I was more confident that my original problem was just drive failure, then doing a full Restore System from Backup would sound fine. If it could have been corrupted files of some sort I'm wary of doing a full Restore, as I'd be Restoring over what is currently my only working copy of the OS.
Suggestions?

2009 17" Macbook Pro fans running at max speed aafter hard drive upgrade.

I recently picked up a 17" 2009 unibody MacBook Pro with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8ghz, 4gb RAM, SuperDrive and a Samsung 1TB hard drive. The system did not come with the original hard drive and I don't have any other hard drives to test and verify that the new larger hard drive is the cause. I have tried a clean install of Snow Leopard, Lion and even Mountain Lion but no matter what my fans always running at max speed (5k+ RPM). I have looked at iStat and the temps of any of the components in the machine never show more than 42*C so the fans should never be running at full blast. Oddly enough smcFanControl shows 0* temp but fan speds for both left and right are always 5.5k+ and very noisy. Using HDD Fan Control I am able to get at least the right fan to run at a controlable speed but its silence is drowned out by the left fan that still runs on full blast. I have already done multiple SMC resets and PRAM resets with no change in the condition. These noisey fans are driving me insane! I have run every available update as well. Is there a chance that the hard drive or something elses temp not being supported or detectable by OSX is causing the fans to default to the fail safe constant high speed?!

I will have to try that when I get can find the original discs because I have been unable to boot into the diagnostic utility with my Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion discs. More than likely I am thinking a sensor failure because even booting into Ubuntu Live USB thumbdrive the fans still run at max.
Well your just a regular pirate. There is no Mountain Lion disks, it's not even out of Beta and avaialble to the public yet
We thought you were just mistaken but now your tech handy enough to boot a Mac off a Linux live USB, so that means you've been bad and downloaded MT Lion off a P2P network or something.
If your beta testing 10.8 your bound to secrecy and not allowed to be discussing it and posting this sort of question on this forum, but the other one.
If you know anything, OS X must "talk" to the hardware or else the default setting is to race the fans. Linux doesn't do this by default as it's designed for generic PC's which a Mac may appear to be one it's not really. Apple only supports OS X and Windows 7 on Mac's, not Linux.
Obviously something on your machine is SEVERLY messed up in hardware, likely a dead sensor, you bought a used lemon that someone didn't want to pay to get fixed.

Every time Firefox opened

Same thing happens to me. As far as I can tell, it just started a few days ago. I have made no changes of which I am aware. Today, I disabled Java Development toolkit add-ons. (One was already disabled, but one was still active.) I have only one version of shockwave flash running as a Firefox add-on. Having more than one version running is a known issue with Firefox. Reluctantly, I have just made IE my default browser, after several years as a devout Firefox fan. Pretty frustrating.

I am trying to run my registered CS6 Design Standard programs for the first time after install. InDesign runs OK, but Illustrator and Photoshop will only run in trail mode. How do I activate those two?

I can't get my registered versions of CS6 Photoshop and Illustrator to run in full mode. I installed CS6 Design Standard online end of June (an upgrade from CS5.5), on my old MacBook Pro. I didn't run the programs then as I was waiting on arrival of new MacBook Pro. I migrated the programs from my old MacBook to the new, and today tried to run those programs for the first time. InDesign work OK (after an initial hiccup) but Illustrator and Photoshop will only run in trial mode, and won't let me save files. My CS6 Design Standard shows with it's registration in my Adobe Account. All seems in order, but Illustrator and Photoshop won't run in registered mode. Can you please help?

Demons1 in the future please only migrate your documents and settings.
Please use the uninstallers to remove your current installation. They are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once the uninstall is complete you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool. You can find more details at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

Hi Andi,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I have waited for a while and the result doesn't change.
The Porblem here is the application is seen started in visual administrator.Only restart brings up the page back.
Can you please suggest anything.

4x NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT cards in a Mac Pro run below max supported speed

Hi,
We have 4 "identical" NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 256MB cards in one Mac Pro (to support 8 DVI monitors for a Network Operations Center). One card came with the system, the other cards were purchased from Apple at the same time. This was a refurbished computer, so we didn't have the build-to-order option. I put identical in quotes because they seem to have different ROM revisions.
The system mainly shows graphs on webpages and HP OpenView (via X11), so no heavy-duty gaming or refreshes.
We have been running with 6 monitors for the past 4 months with the following monitors:
- 1x 42" LCD with 1280x768, 32 bit color, DVI
- 5x 22" LCD with 1680x1050, 60Hz, 32 bit color, DVI
When I restart the system, at least one of the 22" monitors takes 5 or 10 minutes of flashing on then off (mostly off) before it finally syncs up and shows a constant image. The 42" LCD won't go to its native resolution (can't recall what that is right now), so have to go down to a less optional 1280x768. In the next day or so, I'll be connecting one more identical 22" LCD and then soon after another 42" monitor, but am wondering if they will work. Yesterday, I saw a post about firmware update for this video card (http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/geforce7300gtfirmwareupdate.html). I also noticed that two of the cards have ROM Revision 3008 and two have 3011 ROM Revision of the cards (in System Profiler). I'm not sure yet if this firmware update increases the ROM Revision.
Running the Expansion Slot Utility (/System/Library/CoreServices/) shows that my PCI Express profile is set to Two x8 Lane + Two x4 Lane slots. All slots say that they are running below maximum speed.
The store.apple.com site still shows this configuration as a valid build-to-order, but I wonder if they do something different or extra.
Does anyone else have experience with 4 of these video cards with this many monitors?
Any experience with the Firmware Upgrade that I should know about?
Thank for any insight!

I notice that the flasher is connected to a card with ROM revision 3011, the later one.
I noticed this too.
now, to the slot profiles.
you say;
"The first one that I enter is the one to the right (looking from the back of the system)."
so you mean that the mac is laying on its side and your in the back, and what you call 'slot 1' is to the right? is that correct?
No, the system is upright, but the cards are horizontally seated. Pardon my ascii art, but here's the layout if I look from the back of the Mac Pro:
| DVI DVI ---->> slot 4
| DVI DVI ---->> slot 3
| DVI DVI ---->> slot 2
| DVI DVI ---->> slot 1
So, there are two DVI ports on each card (which is in a slot). I'm not sure which lane is which.
Either the left (as pictured) is lane 1, or the right (as pictured) is lane 2.
i ask because i'm wondering if your reproducing the way the expansion slot utility is graphically portraying it. I'm pretty sure the utility is showing the slots as if the mac is upright and the person is looking into the side of it with the access panel off.
Okay, sounds logical!
if you say that you have two x4 lanes and two x8 lanes, then i'm deducing that your flasher is on an x4 lane, and as it is, one of your x8 lanes has only one lonely monitor on it.
Probably correct.
In my utility window, it is the fourth configuration, so you would have at the moment;
slot4__x4__22" and 22"
slot3__x4__42" and 22" flasher
slot2__x8__22" and empty
slot1__x8__22" and 22"
I think that you have 2 and 3 reversed.
i would suggest trying the third configuration thusly;
slot4__x8__22" and 22"
slot3__x1__22" and empty
slot2__x8__42" and 22" flasher
slot1__x8__22" and 22"
in other words, check off the third configuration in the utility, then
exchange the connections on the second and third cards, leaving the first and fourth cards be.
Okay, will do.
as far as running below max speed, i figure as long as your workload doesn't suffer, then its fine.
Oh, and another question, does it always, always flash when you boot-up?
Do you guys shut down the system every night?
We rarely reboot it, and I'm not the only one that would see it reboot. This system is in a 24x7 Network Operations Center. I just know that rebooting takes a while for the monitor to come up all of the way.
Thanks for all of your help and guidance so far!
