  • Hello - how do i get my mac pro to print in colour

    Hello - how do i get my mac pro to print in colour - i am using HP Envy 120 and can not print in colour. when testing the printer, the printer prints in colour, but trying to print from the mac book pro - it prints in black and white. i can't find an option that

    I know nothing about your printer. However, to use it properly you must Add the printer in Print & Scan preferences.
    See OS X Mavericks- Set up a printer. Also, consult the printer's user manual. With the proper setup the printer should print color or b/w automatically. If you have further problems you need to start with the printer HP's tech support.

  • How do I get new Mac Pro to "find" my HP LaserJet 1200n?

    I have been using my HP LaserJet 1200n with my G5. The ethernet cable from the printer is plugged into my Airport Extreme Base Station. On the G5 I have checked the box "Share this Printer", and its location is given as "Local Zone". I have added a new Mac Pro, and want to use the LaserJet with it. I will be getting rid of the G5. The problem I am having is that I can not get the Mac Pro to "find" the LaserJet on its own. IF I have the G5 turned on, then and only then will the Mac Pro print via ethernet to the LaserJet. In this configuration it lists the Laserjet "@ G5". With the G5 turned off the Mac Pro Systems Prefs list the LaserJet as "idle", but when I attempt to print the Mac Pro searches for the LaserJet with no results. How do I fix this? Thanks!

    Good news and bad news.
    Good news: I got it to work
    Bad news: It worked after about 4-1/2 hours of reading Apple and HP posts and printer manuals, and I really don't know that I did anything different I didn't do at 20 min.
    To document for anyone that might search...
    With a Laserjet 2100M or 2100TN connected through a Linksys router, I think what was key is to unplug and restart every network device several times, including the router itself. That's the only thing I can think of that might have made it work this time since I was doing the random monkey thing.
    Pushing both buttons simultaneously on the printer gets it to divulge its IP address, but I realized I can look at my router in the browser and see where it starts assigning IP addresses (...100 in my case) and if worse came to worse, just configure a bunch of printers with ...100, ...101, etc up to the number of devices on the network since you don't know what got assigned what address (it's unrelated to which of the four ports a device is plugged into because of the wireless devices).
    So you can go to the printer menu, I right click on the existing printers and clear all the printers, then hit + and then go to IP menu and pick the jetsocket choice, type in the IP address. The very last (successful) time, it knew what the printer was and picked the drivers (instead of generic postscript or PCL like it had 50 times before).
    Again, I think it's the rebooting and unplugging or turning things off to force them to do a little comms handshaking. Depression to elation, all over a printer. We're just pawns in the grip of multinational hegemony. <joke>

  • Looking to get a Mac Pro Refurb, How can I get the Airport card too?

    I can't find an airport card available anywhere for the Mac Pro. The refurbs do not look like they come with one. I can't find it from apple or anyone else.
    What's the deal, and what can be done?
    Thanks a lot,
    Mark

    You can take it into an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) or search on-line for places which offer the card.
    One site is Fastmac.com.
    You may also want to take a look at the Mac|Life article "Getting a Mac Pro Wireless".

  • How do you new Mac Pro owners like your machine with Logic?

    Don't mean to be a PITA but I need to get this right before I drop three to five grand on a new set of music tools. I'm trying to decide between Mac Pro and iMac for use with Logic. Seems there are a lot of posts regarding glitches with the new Mac Pro and Logic, whereas the posts from people with older G4s and G5s seem to indicate they are running rock solid. So you new Mac Pro folks or anyone else, please weigh in. Is the new Mac Pro "glitch heavy" or is it just a matter of tweaking the system to where it runs smooth? In general, how do you new Mac Pro folks like the way it works with Logic?

    I'm mostly pleased with my MacPro 2.66. Almost no crashes with Logic, although I experience a few more bugs here and there than with my G4. Occasional CoreAudio errors, I have to restart CoreAudio if my external word clock is set to the wrong sample rate when I open a session, there seems to be a bug between high fader levels (above +4dB) and panning... little things like that.
    Then again, compared to my G4, the FireWire bus is screaming fast--with most sessions, I can run a buffer of 128 samples at 96k with my MOTU 828mkII, while my G4 would sometimes glitch at 96k with 512 samples. At 96k, 256 samples, my MacPro/828mkII rig is rock-solid... I informally tested it by recording 12 test tracks simultaneously for 20 minutes, with the CPU nearly maxed out (which was difficult to do--took a bunch of Space Designers and Ultrabeats)--absolutely zero clicks or pops.
    And of course, WAY more processing power than my G4.
    I'm assuming that MacPro compatibility is a fairly high priority for Apple these days, so hopefully the bugs will get worked out soon. And as things are, Logic is definitely usable on a MacPro--the bugs I encounter rarely slow down my work.
    So, far from perfect, but as far as new technology goes, I'd say Logic on the MacPro is above average.
    Good luck!

  • Does anyone know how to get final cut pro x to stop lagging?

    Does anyone know how to get final cut pro x to stop lagging?

    Two things: 1) MORE RAM.
    2) What hard drive?
    I am sorry if this sounds harsh, but the bare minimum to get decent performance out of FCP X is 8GB.
    If you mac supports more, even better - go to 12GB or 16GB.
    Also, the hard drive? Are you editing on the internal drive? That is also a bottleneck. The system drive should not also be used as a media drive; plus, depending on model, it may not be very fast drive to begin with.
    You should use an external drive with a fast enough connection - USB3 or Thunderbolt, if possible; FW800 as a distant third. USB2 may also work, albeit it is a relatively slow connection.

  • How noisy is the Mac Pro?

    How noisy is the Mac Pro - say compared to an iMac?

    Hello Pagemakers2,
    First,I doubt you'll get a definitive answer to this kind of question because there's significant variability in the "intensity of use" among Mac Pro owners. I mean of course, some users need to run apps and process file types which naturally require more cooling of hard-running cpus and that will cause more fan noise.
    I'm almost embarrassed to admit: the most "intense" task my Mac Pro handles (video encoding) uses only about 65% of processing capacity. So... I never hear the fans at all, the Mac Pro does not even put out "warm air" from the exhaust ports. I work in a quiet environment (home) where, sometimes, I have to play music on iTunes or at least turn on the tv in the next room - just to have a little background noise. Meanwhile, the fan in my eMac can be heard when I wake it from sleep - but never unpleasantly.
    I'm pretty sure most users will agree: when idling (surfing the web, even running filters on big digital files with Photoshop™) the Mac Pro is pretty quiet.
    Oh, another factor to consider is: Whether or not you run heavy apps with a heavy work load "continuously." I mean for example: running those video conversions may take a few minutes on the Mac Pro (Intel). But I may run one file to burn to DVD on any given day. (On average, less than once a day.)
    Burning: the original Sony OPTIARC drive which came factory installed made "moderate noise" (for about 2-3 minutes of burn time) but the noise was "annoying." I replaced that with (eventually) two Samsung units: these both make audible noise, but it seems less and certainly doesn't annoy me like the Sony unit did.
    Just to be clear: I didn't replace the Sony drive due to noise, I did so because that model didn't (1) handle DVD-DL and (2) I wanted DVD drives which provide the Lightscribe disk labeling software. The "more pleasant sound" was a bonus.

    Hi Bruce,
    Out from what I can find on this network card is it not possible to get the mac address without a OS. I would recommend you to get/burn a Linux/Ubuntu live CD/DVD and run a Ifconfig in there.
    Hope it helps you.

    Did you purchased the Full Perpetual License from Adobe for $149.00?, if so then what has happened is that you probably downloaded the Creative Cloud trial version which has now expired.
    The license key for the perpetual version will not be accepted to activate the CC version.
    Uninstall the existing Lightroom and then download the one available from the link below. The uninstall process will not affect your Catalog, Preferences or personal files but will just remove the application. Install the new download and you license key will be accepted.

  • I cannot get my Mac Pro (Original) MacPro1,1 to boot with the 64 Bit kernel in 10.6.8

    I cannot get my Mac Pro (Original) MacPro1,1 to boot with the 64 Bit kernel in 10.6.8 (this is a 2 x 3Dual-Core Intel Xeon machine).
    Firmware = MP11.005C.B08 (EFI 1.2) 1.7f10 (SMC 1.1)
    Will it not  run the 64 bit kernel?
    Is there a firmware upgrade to allow this?
    Should I bother?
    It won't boot with the Key 6 & 4 method.
    or using Terminal command;
    sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture x86_64
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance...
    Eric

    Because it can't and doesn't have a 64-bit supported firmware.
    UEFI (EFI64) was not finalized and adopted until very late 2007 and introduced in 2008, by Apple, Intel, other members of EFI Group and Unified EFI.  The Mac Pro Mid-2010 was  the first time though that 64-bit mode was the default.
    Does it matter? not really. you can't install 48GB RAM anyway, while there are some improvements from 64-bit kernal.
    Also can't boot Windows 7 64-bit DVD to install properly. But you can run Windows 64-bit kernel because you have a 64-bit Xeon.

  • How can I disable mac pro OSX 'spaces' shortcut keys? (i.e. CTL, Right Arrow)

    How can I disable mac pro shortcut keys: CTL right arrow, CTL left arrow, CTL up arrow, CTL down arrow? Currently, they take me from one space to another. (OSX 10.6) Goal is to use these shortcuts for text editing.

    Hi, Simon.
    You can instruct iTunes and iPhoto to save their respective libraries to a different disk, e.g. your second hard drive. You can also move existing libraries for these apps to a drive other than your startup disk.
    See the links concerning moving these libraries cited in the "More ways to save space if you have a spare partition or second hard drive" section of my "Freeing Space on your Mac OS X startup disk" FAQ.
    Good luck!

  • How to improve my mac pro speed

    how to improve my mac pro speed

    You don't have a Mac Pro, you have a MacBook Pro. There is no way to make it faster because you cannot replace the CPU with a faster one. You can add more RAM to help improve performance when you have a lot of concurrent applications running or use memory hungry applications. You can add a faster disk drive to improve the speed of I/O. You can sell it and buy a faster model.

    how to  recover the mac pro and how to use time machine,   I don't know why that my time machine logo is always gray.

    Press the command and r keys when turning on your Macbook.  Do not release those keys until you see the apple logo...
    Disk Utility will pop up.....Your choices are to reinstall, you will not lose anything....
    if however, you decide to format/erase your drive, then reinstall, you will lose everything...
    suggestion - back everything up and do a clean install.
