How to Setup Epson R300 to Mac Pro

I use a mid - 2012 Mac Pro; run Mavericks OS X 10.9.3. I have an Epson R300 that is incompatible with 10.9.3; but according to Epson I may be able to setup my R300 to my Mac Pro buy one of three ways:
1. USB: Connect your product to your Mac using a USB cable.
2. Wireless: You'll need to download and install the "Epson Wireless Setup" utility to establish the connection to your router.
3. Ethernet: My Epson printer does not have an Ethernet connection so this one is ruled out.
I am trying number 1: USB. I downloaded the Apple "PrinterProxy Version 9.0 (447)" and ran the software. Whenever I try to print something I get the following:
"Stopped - Unsupported colorspace = -1, 1 page"
What should I do to print with the above mentioned Epson printer, if possible?

sorry, Angel L, I don't know what "PrinterProxy" is, but according to Epson's website, the latest driver was released 09-25-2013, the print cd utility was released on 08-01-2013. For printer drivers, just do a "software update' from the Apple menu, if an update comes up, install it, , then grab the print CD utility and install that . Epson's position is that it's in Apple's hands now. If you want updated drivers, your best best would be, I suppose, do the "software update" thing.
So, you'd have to go into printing and scanning, under system preferences, delete the printer, then click on the Plus sign to add one, then choose the Epson driver. then finish. If you have a printer proxy set up, from within the print dialog, hold down the Command and Option keys while selecting your desired printer from the popup button. Unfortunately, the article I got this info from mentions 10.6/10.7 and nothing about 10.9. Don't know why you need a printer proxy, anyways, but there's lots of stuff I don't know. See if you can delete the PrinterProxy and print via usb. Other than that, maybe Gimp Print?
sorry, I tried, but the crystal ball has gone dark

How to setup "Back to My Mac" on iCloud.

Does anyone know how to setup Back to My Mac on iCloud? I never had MobileMe, and all the instructions I find online are for MobileMe. It seems like a really cool concept, though.
The computers I have are a Mac Pro and a Macbook Pro. Both running the latest update of Lion.

I've done that. It goes through as if there are no problems, but I still can't use it. Also, when I try to login using my apple ID, it doesn't work. I've gone to the Airport Utility and tried setting up my apple ID with the mobile me tab, but it asks for my me.com username and password. I never had a password for it, because I setup using cloud. I put in my apple ID password anyway, but there is still no luck. It tells me my username or password is incorrect.

How can I configure my new Mac Pro to output the timeline via HDMI

How can I configure my new Mac Pro to output the timeline in FCP 7 (yes, I have X, but I'm using 7 right now). I have two monitors running from TB2, but want to have the third for a client monitor.
If I use all three via TB2, it's literally three monitors, and I want to edit on my CineDisplay. I only want the client to see the timeline video on the third monitor. When I hook up HDMI I get no signal, in fact, I can't have the HDMI cable hooked up for TB2 to work with the third.
Thanks,

If you use all ThunderBolt displays, or stick with DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort (free conversion between the two with only a cheap cable) you can have up to six displays.
If you attach "legacy" displays with "any-old adapter", you can have up to two, and the built-in HDMI counts as one if you use it.
Any more requires ACTIVE Adapters.
The US$100 Apple ACTIVE Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter works in every case, even displays over 1920 wide.
StarTech and Accell make US$35 ACTIVE adpters that work for displays up to 1920 wide.

My comment is Valid... " .exe files will not run natively on Mac OS X..."
I am sorry. I had the false impression that it was commonly known that .exe files did not run on Mac OSX natively and failed to see any constructive critique you were bringing. Maybe I am wrong. Again deepest apologies.
Unfortunately... these days... not every one is aware of this .exe fact..
Apology accepted.. and Thank You..

How do i save files from mac pro to an external hard drive

how do i save files from mac pro to an external hard drive

Your external drive is formatted NTFS which OS X can read from but not write to. You can either install third-party software on the Mac to enable writing to the drive or repartition and reformat the drive for exclusive use with the Mac. If you don't need to move files between a Mac and a PC, then I would recommend the latter solution.
Tuxera NTFS 2012.3.2
NTFS for Mac OS X 9.5.3
To repartition:
Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select the external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. 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.
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.

How to unistall x code at mac pro

evening , how to remove x code at mac pro 13". thaks

Whilst in Launchpad, with the window with Xcode on it, hold down the option key - the icons will 'wiggle'. Hover over the Xcode icon and click the "x" in the upper left hand corner. If you've already trashed the app and the Developer folder, the icon for Xcode should be removed from Lanchpad.

SADLY not as i downloaded an upgrad to my original PAGES/
i have in the meantim had to open www.icloud. then from there import the file that i am working on and then check on ipad if it uploaded/ yes it did.
but what a waste of time as it doesn not save any changes done automatically back in the cloud....
i am now downloading the new LION and hope that it will fix the problem
i cant find any other way. I was lead to believe that you wrote, it saved automatically, on to the cloud, you then opened anohter device in anotother country even, and the new file was there, waiting, in its latest version.......
and the same magic was supposed to happen in reverse.
It doesn't/
if i have to open a browser, go to www.icloud....why on earth did they not just leave us an icon to drop it in in that case?
I hope the new lion will help resolve the isssue/
any other ideas> keep em coming...thank you so much.

Optimum HD setup for Server on Mac Pro

We are currently running Tiger Server on a Dual 2 G5 and are preparing to migrate to Leopard Server on a new 8-core Mac Pro (I wanted an Xserve, but given the tight purse strings lately, will happily settle for the Mac Pro!!). I will be doing a clean install and then migrating settings, accounts, etc. over to the new machine. I've been trying to figure out the best hard drive setup, but have quickly become confused by the overwhelming abundance of (and occasionally conflicting) recommendations out there.
I've seen some who swear by a RAID 1+0 set up {two sets of mirrored drives that are then striped...or is it a set of striped drives that are then mirrored?!? You can see my dilemma...}, while others swear off of such a setup; lots of STRONG recommendations in favor of a small OS disk and second data disk (perhaps a solid state drive for the OS and a regular drive for the data?); even recommendations for multiple drives with 2 partitions that are RAIDed in ways that made my eyes bleed just trying to figure them out.
Bottom line: what would you recommend hard drive wise for a Mac Pro that's going to be a primary server for a small private school? Assume anything is possible (within reason--obviously a 16 bay external RAID is out of the question), and, if possible, include specific drive recommendations (I've seen LOTS of posts steering me as far away from Seagate as I can get because of high failure rates / firmware issues...any thoughts on the WD Caviar Black vs. the WD RE3 Enterprise?).
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

There are so many conflicting recommendations because there are so many valid configurations. Not every option is right for every case, and you need to consider your own use case to determine the best option.
Let's start off with:
I've seen some who swear by a RAID 1+0 set up {two sets of mirrored drives that are then striped...or is it a set of striped drives that are then mirrored?
RAID 1+0 is a series of mirrored sets that are striped together. This contrasts with RAID 0+1 which is sets of striped disks that are mirrored. The difference is subtle but there are slight differences in fault tolerance and performance in a degraded state (e.g. when one disk has failed).
lots of STRONG recommendations in favor of a small OS disk and second data disk
That is sometimes preferred, although it does depend, again, on usage pattern. If you expect to have a lot of data access then this can be advantageous.
Bottom line: what would you recommend hard drive wise for a Mac Pro that's going to be a primary server for a small private school
A 'primary server' doing what?
Open Directory authentication: doesn't matter since disk is barely used, so any RAID format is going to work equally well, as well a non-RAID setup with a good backup process.
Home Directories: This may benefit from separating data from system, but you need to consider how much disk space you need.
Network Services (such as DNS, DHCP, NAT, etc.): Doesn't matter since disk is irrelevant for these services.
Other services: You need to be specific about what this server is doing in order to determine the best disk setup.
Assume anything is possible (within reason--obviously a 16 bay external RAID is out of the question
Well since you mention that, what IS the limit?
Most specifically, if you're considering external arrays, what is your goal as far as capacity is concerned? You can get external arrays from 500GB to silly numbers of petabytes depending on how much you need and are prepared to pay.
Also if you're going external, once you go over 4 drives, neither RAID 1+0 nor RAID 0+1 is ideal. You'd more likely be looking at RAID 5 which yields a better usable space ratio.
RAID 0+1 and RAID 1+0 both require 2n disks for n capacity - e.g. to get 2TB of usable space you need 4TB of disks). RAID 5 uses an n+1 ratio, so those same four 1TB disks would result in 3TB of usable space). RAID 5 has an extra processor overhead, though, so generally requires specific hardware such as a RAID controller rather than leaving it up to the OS.
include specific drive recommendations
If you want to sleep at night, whatever drives Apple supply.
Sure, other drives will work in the Mac Pro, but for sheer reliability in a server, stick with Apple.
If budgets don't stretch to Apple-branded drives then just about any enterprise drive will work fine (don't try to skimp on cheap desktop drives since they're not designed for server loads).
I've seen LOTS of posts steering me as far away from Seagate as I can get because of high failure rates / firmware issues...any thoughts on the WD Caviar Black vs. the WD RE3 Enterprise?
Seagate really screwed up last year with a firmware bug (and, more importantly, how they mis-managed the solution), but that's history now, except for the people who got bit and have long memories. Consequently they would be on my list of vendors if I were buying non-Apple drives.
The Caviar Black is a desktop drive, so nix that. The RE3 would be OK.
Also bear in mind that if you are looking for an external enclosure (so you can handle more data than you can put in the server), many enterprise RAID solutions have their own limitations on drive support so you might need to consider that before you buy any drives.

How can I set up my Mac Pro so that my wife and I can use our separate iTunes accounts? I keep getting an error message that the computer is already associated with an Apple ID even though the two accounts are associated with separate log ins!

I'm getting very confused with setting up multiple user accounts on my Mac Pro for my wife and I. We each have a separate iTunes account, and we want to keep our music libraries seaprate. I've set up two user accounts on the Mac Pro and I have my iTunes authorised and logged into my user account on my user account. Under my wifes user account (i.e. a separate log in on the computer) I'm trying to set up her iTunes account, but I can't download or play anything from the cloud - it just says "This computer is already associated with another iTunes Account" and tells me that if I 'transfer' then I won't be able to use the other one for 90 days! This is really annoying as my wife can't access music she has purchased on her iTunes account on the home machine. We're not trying to do anything dodgy, just access our music on our own accounts on separate log ins on the same machine. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!
