HT2471 How can I tell if my g5 power mac quad(2006) uses PCIe or PCIx cards?

Hello,
I am purchasing a Pro Tools HD8 system, and I need to know if my g5 uses PCIe or PCIx cards? How do I find this out?
Regards, Dean.

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on More Info, and check the model identifier. If it's PowerMac11,2, the computer has PCI Express slots. If not, they're PCI-X.

  • HT1515 Just installed Airport Express on Mac 10.6.8  Can't see base station.  Hard Reset the Airport.  Rebooted machine.  How can I tell if this is a Mac problem or Airport Express Problem?

    I have a Mac 10.6.8.  Just installed Airport Express.  I can't see any base stations.  I did a hard reset on the Airport Express, turned off all devices,  turned them back on.   I see plenty of Airport networks in the neighborhood.  How can I tell if I have a Mac problem or an Airport Express problem?  Airport Express blinks Amber. 

    Obviously,  I'm still using ethernet to be able to reply to this.
    Alright, use the same ethernet cable to plug directly into the airport express. This will FORCE the airport utility to now see it regardless of weak signals & interference. You can set it up that way.
    BTW, what is the original intent on the express?

    All Mac Pro's ever made have shipped with gigabit ethernet.  The last non-gigabit tower desktop Apple made was the very first generation PowerMac G4's back in 1999.
    Similarly, all Time Capsules have been gigabit ethernet as well - never been one that was not.

  • How can I tell if direct-path insert is really being used?

    I have a number of INSERT statements with /*+ APPEND */ hints, that I suspect are not using direct-path insert processing. How can I tell (via the plan, via Enterprise Manager, whatever) if direct-path is being used?
    If it is not being used, then I can research why that might be, and try to resolve the obstacles there. But if it is being used, then I want to know that so I can focus elsewhere.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    The question of whether direct-path is possible with multi-table inserts has been on my mind...
    Moreover, in another forum post, we have eyewitnesses that it has happened at least once:
    APPEND Hint in Multi-table insert
    So I think that post (giving examples of Explain plans with multi-table inserts successfully using direct-path) answers my question.
    Mike,
    Thanks for that link. When I checked my example again I realised that it had a foreign key constraint between the two tables I was inserting into. (It was a demonstration of how to normalise an incoming denormalised address table, so converted a flat table into address/address lines). When I removed the constraint I got the multi-table insert.
    However, I followed this up with a check on the execution plans and for the 10.2.0.3 I was running noted the following:
    Plan reported after running the insert and select from dbms_xplan.display_cursor()
    | Id  | Operation           | Name | Rows  | Bytes | Cost  |
    |   0 | INSERT STATEMENT    |      |       |       |    30 |
    |   1 |  MULTI-TABLE INSERT |      |       |       |       |
    |   2 |   TABLE ACCESS FULL | T3   | 10000 |  1240K|    30 |
    ------------------------------------------------------------Plan reported after explain plan / select from dbms_xplan.display()
    | Id  | Operation           | Name | Rows  | Bytes | Cost  |
    |   0 | INSERT STATEMENT    |      | 10000 |  1240K|    30 |
    |   1 |  MULTI-TABLE INSERT |      |       |       |       |
    |   2 |   DIRECT LOAD INTO  | T1   |       |       |       |
    |   3 |   DIRECT LOAD INTO  | T2   |       |       |       |
    |   4 |    TABLE ACCESS FULL| T3   | 10000 |  1240K|    30 |
    ------------------------------------------------------------If you try to check for direct path inserts by looking at the in-memory plans, you might not see the direct load that is really happening. (Perhaps the a check that both / all the target tables are locked with TM mode 6 may give you a clue.)

  • How can I tell Apple to store my MAC-address of my Wifi Router in there location DB?

    Hello
    Recently I bought a new Wifi Router and when I use the Maps App it tells that my ipad is located in China (Shangai)
    When I also want to use the automatic timezone feature in the preferences app it indicates that my ipad is in China (Shangai)
    I have already searched for a number of discussions (in and out the Apple Support) and their I found that the problem is in a location DB managed by Apple (crowd-sourced database). It seems that my Wifi Router is registered with a wrong location. :-(
    my questions :
    .- is the somebody that can give me a procedure (certified by Apple) how I can update this location DB?
    .- How can I store my Wifi Router MAC address with the correct location in this DB?
    Already thanks in advance
    Kindly regards

  • How can i tell if my lost/stolen iPod is being used

    My daughter has either lost or had stolen her ipod.  how can we see if someone else may be using it?

    Look for charges/purchase
    Look for photos in your PhotoStream
    Lookf for posts make for accounts used on the iPod like FaceBook
    There is not good way really
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • How can I install Tiger upgrade on Power Mac G5?

    I have PowerMac G5 with OSX 3.9. I bought retail disk of Tiger but it will not install as upgrade. It goes past the restart process but stops shortly after installation begins with message telling me that installation failed. I originally bought Leopard and encountered same problem and then bought Tiger thinking that I might need to upgrade to that first. Here are the specs for my computer:

    Thanks much!

    Hi Mobe!
    Is the disc the Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, that does not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on it?
    If not, you can order the correct Tiger 10.4.x installer from Apple Phone Sales 1-800-692-7753, for $129.00.
    That model of PowerMac G5 should also support the Leopard System Requirements, if you use a Full Retail Version of the Leopard DVD.
    The Full Retail Version, of the Leopard Install DVD, can be purchased at The Apple Store (U.S.).

  • Superdrive - How can I tell if its broken or I'm just using it wrong?

    I've had my Quad PPC G5 for a while now, and the Superdrive has always been flakey...
    When I try to burn my vids using DVD Studio Pro mostly (but other software is used), it says it burns, but when move it to other machines or my TV, the vids freeze midway... When i copy the files to my PC and burn from there using Roxio, it burns fine & plays fine... I'm afraid to use the Superdrive now as I've given my stuff to people and they can't play it..
    I also have problems ejecting discs once theyre in the drive...If i have nothing in there, eject works fine, but if i put discs (any discs) in there, I have to reboot and hold down the eject button to get them out...
    I have AppleCare, but before i call, I'm hoping it is just a matter that I;m doing something wrong or using cheap DVDs (Generic DVD-R's 16X speed)... Buit that wouldn't explain away the eject issue...
    Any ideas? Thanks!

    Hi James-
    Here's the info on your drive (performance review):
    http://www.cdfreaks.com/reviews/First-look-LG-GSA-4165B-DVD-Burner/1st-look-conc lusion.html
    The maker is LG- typically receives good reviews.
    I notice that you are running OS 10.4.6. How long has it been since you did a system reinstall? With regard to the eject function, it could very well be that you have some corrupt files within the OS. Could be that a repair with Disk Utility could help. Beyond this, an Archive and Install may be useful, followed by (preferred) a clean system reinstall. A simple re-update might be all that is needed.....
    But, since the drive has displayed the problem from the beginning, it does tilt the balance towards a hardware problem. Having said this, depending on the original OS version (10.4.2?), and the update history, the problem could lie within the firmware, or, system software.
    Does the problem occur in a different user account? Setting up a second user account, with Admin privileges, is a good trouble shooting technique. If no problem, then it is in your account only. If the same, the saga continues.......
    So- first, I would run Disk Utility (booted from install disk) and repair the hard drive. I would also repair permissions. Following this (after testing the drive) I would try a re-application of the 10.4.6 Combo Update:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1046comboforppc.html
    Should this fail, I think I would be inclined to use my Applecare.
    As for the disk reading and writing- take note of the makers that are listed on the bottom of the review (1st look conclusion) page that I linked. Can't go wrong with them. Also, look at user responses on the following (select format):

  • How can i tell if my new Apple TV is streaming using wireless N or G

    Ok i sold my 40G apple TV a few weeks back before the itunes update.. all worked great. Yesterday i purchased a new 16G apple TV and a new belkin N1 wirlessN router.
    So far i have had a few problems with syncing. After much searching here it looks like it is an issue with the new itunes build. Apple TV drops in and out of itunes etc.
    However when it is connected i found the streaming of movies and TV shows not much better than my old wireless G router. I was expecting much more. So as a shot in the dark is there a way to see the connection speed or transfer speed on the apple TV
    TIA
    henry

    Does your Mac have Wireless 802.11N? Both the router and the Mac must have N enabled to get the speed. ATV to Router will be at N speeds, but this does not matter if the bottleneck is between the Mac and the Router.
    Newer iMacs and MacBooks have N, If you bought before 2007, maybe not. Maybe check your system profiler to see which you have.
    For your initial sync, you may want to use an ethernet cable. See the Apple Knowledgebase article on how to do this. Once the initial sync is done, the incremental syncs should go pretty well with either g or n.
    I have n. My wife's Mac has g. She is able to stream video to the ATV with no problem. We are using the Airport Extreme, though, not the Belkin.

  • How can I create software start and stop trigger in LabView using 6023E series DAQ card? I don't want to use the external trigger.

    I am using 6023E DAQ card to collect the signals, such as AE, Force, Torque from the machine. I want to collect only some part of signal for example between start triger and stop trigger. I'd like to know how I can creat those triggers in LabView from one of the channels that I am acquiring at the same time. I found one or two library file that is only for start trigger. I know that this is availabe in some of DIAdem functions. Please let me know if you have done some example for this requirement.

    If you are wanting to create a software trigger based on an analog input voltage in LabVIEW, there are several options. One suggestion would be to compare the voltage values from one input channel to a number within a loop. If the input voltage crosses that threshold (is greater than the number), have a case statement that will acquire data from the other channels. This would simulate a software start trigger in LabVIEW.

  • How can I avoid to get hot my Mac when i use Windows an Revit 2013 app.?

    I' m a Arquitecture Student, and I should use Revit and this application is just for windows, an autorized apple technician Install windows, when I use the app Revit, after 20 to 30 minuts, my mac strart to get hot, and I can keep working. Stop and the start again.  Is it possible that I don't have enoug graphic memory assigned, or video memory.  Thnks for your help

    Revit must be using the discrete graphics and possibly a fair amount of cpu as well.  This has nothing to do with memory or memory allocation (which you can't do on a mac since it doesn't use shared memory like some low-end PCs do.  Getting hot is not a problem as long as the fans speed up to increase the cooling.  If the system is overheating, it will shut down on its own.

  • How can I tell if a page is secure

    How can I tell if a page is secure? There used to be an option to view a security certificate although this has been removed from the toolbar?
    Also, how can I refresh a page now that the button has been deleted from the toolbar?
    Thanks

    It has been changed. Please read this article:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Site%20Identity%20Button
    You can use this add-on to get the classic icon back:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/padlock-icon/
    Refresh Button:
    It has been incorporated into the far right end of the Address Bar. When you load a page, it is a "Stop" button, when it finished loading, it turns into a "Reload" button.
    If you want it to be somewhere else in the Toolbar, you can drag it out to wherever you want. If that doesn't work, try this:
    View > Toolbars > Customize and drag the Refresh/Stop icon into the window, then drag it back out to wherever you prefer.

    My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. A while ago the computer fell down and hit the cable. How can I tell if the computer is working ok. Doesn't show mirroring any more. Was working while watching a movie but when I pulled it out from the computer and put it back in the system would no longer mirrorr the screen on the TV.

    The best option is an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.  The evaluation will be for FREE!
