how do i engage my 8 core mac pro to use all it's cores when using final cut pro and other applications that need processing power? at the moment they seem to be idle...
First, did you use Setup or Migration Assistant? That can happen when coming from a PowerMac or sometimes even from another (Intel) Mac.
Second, wait for the next version of Final Cut due very soon to ship (may have to wait for the ".1" of course to clean up any early issues.

There are a few apps that are better. I think you can run multiple instances of Handbrake for one.
I've read about and wanted to try PowerDirector 9 (Windows)

How to get 10 screens on a Mac Pro
Hi All:
I'm trying to figure out how to get 10 screens working together like one big desktop on a Mac Pro.
Currently I have a 12core 2010 Mac Pro with 2 ATI 5770 cards driving 6 30" cinema displays. Each of these cards are double wide.
I want to connect 4 65" LED displays.
Does anyone have an idea how I can do this? The Mac Pro has only 4 slots. The two 5770s take up 3 spaces (because of their doulbe wide size). The last slot has a OWC solidstate drive there. I guess I could remove that and use just a regular SATA SSD if need be, but would love to get this done with just 3 slots.
So some thoughts. There are two possible ways (ideal, and less ideal) that I can think of:
IDEAL way:
The ideal would be to find a single wide card that supports 5 or 6 displays, and use that. I know that some people have had success flashing single wide cards, but it's not clear if all the ports are usable. See here for an ATI card with 3 ports, single slot, that's been flashed:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Apple-Mac-Pro-ATI-Radeon-HD-5770-1GB-Video-Card-Single-S lot-5870-/150928552679?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item23240af2e7
Also, it's not clear if you could get 4 of those cards working to drive all 10 screens.
However, there are single wide 5/6 display cards like this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150566&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junc tion&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&AID=10440897&PID=3332167&SID=u00000687
Has any seen or know of a 5 port card like the above that has been flashed to work in a Mac Pro?
LESS ideal way:
My guess is there are some PCI expansion chasis, and I can just put in 2 more regular ATI 5770s there. I found this:
http://www.jmr.com/en/products/14/3-slot-pcie-extender/
and this
http://www.magma.com/catalog/classic-pci-expansion
I'm not sure how well these extenders work.
EVEN LESS ideal way:
Perhaps getting another Mac or PC and somehow VNC'ing in is an option, but this likely would be too laggy to run video from one computer to the other. The ideal is to just treat the system like one giant screen, but I'm open to hearing any experiences/suggestions on getting this to work.
Thanks so much!After reading up on it, it seems that the 6850 supports 3 displays. So perhaps I could do one 6870 (4 displays) in slot one, and then 2 single slot 6850's or 5770's in slots 2 and 3. This would give 10 displays.
I have 3 questions then:
(1) What is the quietest 6870 card people have successfully used in a Mac Pro?
(2) What is quietest single slot 6850 or 5770 card successfully used in a Mac Pro?
(3) Has anyone gotten thiis 5770 single slot card to work on a Mac Pro, and have they gotten 5 display ports to work?

Hi All,
I'm trying to resume regular scheduled Full backup ( ~ 1 TB ) of drives using external HD (to allow off-site redundant backup storage) .
What are relative speeds of USB vs. Firewire vs. eSATA ?
I suspect eSATA connection may be considerably faster … how to install eSATA on mid-2010 Mac Pro desktop ( dual hex-core processors)?
( The quicker and easier backup protocol is, the more likely one is to use it to backup on a routine repetitive basis.)

( The quicker and easier backup protocol is, the more likely one is to use it to backup on a routine repetitive basis.)
Adding a USB 3.0+eSATA PCIe card, which The hatter mentions, is the best solution that I've found. See http://eshop.macsales.com/item/CalDigit/FASTA6GU3/. The card is not cheap, but the USB 3.0 works flawlessly (which can't be assumed; ask me how I know) and the eSATA connection allows booting from the connected drive. Grant Bennet-Alder's point about HD speed is important to consider; in addition, the size of the individual files being backed up and where on the backup disk they're going will affect overall transfer speed. For example, using the USB 3.0 connection on that CalDigit card going to a Toshiba 3TB external, the transfer rate for a big file (say a virtual machine file) from an internal SSD boot drive was about 145 MB/sec while a bunch of little files might drop to 30 MB/sec and both rates decrease as an inner partition on the external is used. All told, a nearly 700 GB backup took under 1.5 hours. Using a HD as the source added almost an extra hour, though a WD external was used for that. Using a WD green drive plugged into this http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/FWU3ES2HDK/ with an eSATA connection took about 2.5 hours also, but that was bootable whereas the USB 3.0 connection is not.
Another point to consider is that USB 3.0 is ubiquitous on PC's now so there's lots of price competition for externals; not so much for eSATA externals. -

How to use a webcam on a mac pro?
Generally, plug it in.
The OS should notice most major webcams, although you might need to install some software from the vendor to make it work. You'll need to check specific make/models for compatibility.
Once it's connected it should be available in any application that supports video input. -
How do I access Java on my Mac Pro so that I can make sure it's working so that we can view "watch instantly" on Netflix?
There are various browser scripts
1: Java (not needed much at all and highly advised to be turned off in Safari/Firefox preferences due to it's vulnerability)
2: Javascript (if off, needs to be turned on in Safari/Firefox preferences as it's used A LOT)
Note: If your using a NoScript type blocker, then you need to whitelist the site. Or drag a Temp Allow All button to Firefox's Toolbar.
3: Silverlight plug-in (needed for watching Netflix content, it's from Microsoft)
4: Flash (needed for watching a lot of web based content, but requires constant checks to make sure it's current as they have a lot of security issues)
Check your status here, works on all web browsers

How to print from mac pro to 7520
Trying to print from Mac ProBook to my HP 7520 all-in-one printer. I don't want to use USB nor WiFi. How do I set that up?
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hi Beverly,
Thanks for clarifying.
So you would like to use a wireless connection without using a Wireless router.. that can be done using the HP Wireless Direct feature which create a wireless network, hosted by the printer itself:
On the printer control panel, touch the Wireless icon ( ).
Touch Settings , and then touch Wireless Direct . The Wireless Direct Settings menu displays.
On the printer control panel, touch Wireless Direct again, and then choose a security option:
Touch On (No Security) if you do not want to use a passcode to connect, Touch On (With Security) if you want to use a pre-assigned passcode to connect and then touch Yes to continue
NOTE: If Auto-Off is enabled, touch OK when the control panel prompts you to disable Auto-Off .
Touch Display Password , and then touch OK to continue.
5. From the Mac click the Wi-Fi icon, select Join Other Network and then click Show Network.
6. Select the Wireless Direct network of your printer, it will include 7520 within its name.
7. Now you may install the Software from the link below:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=al-106189-3&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
If you leave the truck, I believe the Mac should reconnect to the network automatically but I'm not sure, you may have to click the Wi-Fi icon and select the Wireless Direct network when getting back.

How do I setup my printer to print with only black ink in a pages document
How do I setup a document to use black ink only in Pages?
This is a Printer setting, rather than a Document one.
For my Canon Inkjet, it's done in the Print Dialogue:
As you can see from the second pop-up menu, I have saved this setting as a preset.
The setting itself has only a single change from the supplied "Standard" setting—checking the Grayscale Printing checkbox.
Going by appearances, the printer uses only the Black cartridge when printing in this mode, unless I have set "Use color cartridge" in the printer's utility software, a setting intended to allow you to print using only one cartridge when the other is out of ink. Greyscale printing using only the colour cartridge has less contrast, and usually shows a colour cast. Setting the printer utility to specify using only the K cartridge shows results essentially the same as those done in grayscale using the Print dialogue setting and not bothering to change the printer utility setting.

Barry
