I have a Mac Pro 1.1 (2006).....Can I upgrade to ATI 5770 for MAC?

I have a 2006 MAC Pro intel......Need to upgrade my Graphics card to acess all of the effects in my Final Cut Pro 4 Studio.  Hoping I can go with an ATI 5770 since it will also work with FCPX "IF" I ever decide to upgrade to LION and FCPX.  I have had mixed findings and can't seem to get a straight answer from APPLE.  Do I need the 5770 for MAC or do I need the (Upgrade fro MAC) kit?  I have 10.6.4 (snow leopard as an OS and don't want to upgrade to Lion yet because I don't want to use FCPX.

you won't get straight answer and yet there are dozens in the comments section of the product page for 5770 from MacPro1,1 owners running 10.6.5+.
Not sure what you mean by "upgrade kit" vs "5770 for Mac" but you want Apple card and possibly power connector.

    "exFAT (Extended File Allocation Table) is a Microsoft file system optimized for flash drives.[3] It is proprietary and patented."
    That first site explains it at length.

    I have macbook pro 10.5.8 can i upgrade to the Os X lion?

    apart from what is already known ( upgrade to Sno,purchase Lion or walk into a Apple Store, ask for a USB drive .. ) you should make sure you can run Lion. Not every Intel Mac will run it, and you need 2GB of RAM.
    Double check that requirements before.

    Restart with the Mac OS X 10.6 DVD in the drive or with the Lion USB drive connected, hold down the Option key just after the restart, tab to the installation disk, and press Enter. If the computer has a firmware password set, it needs to be provided for this to work.

  • I have Photoshop 5.0 Limited Edition.  Can I upgrade this to a more current version for free? If so, how?

    Hi
    I have loaded photoshop version 5 onto my computer in order to view a psd file, but the file is from a more up to date version and contains incompatible material.  Can I update the version 5 copy I have to a more current version so the file would work?
    Would this just be a question of downloading something online or would I have to pay to upgrade?
    I did try to look at the adobe upgrade section but it all seemed meant for more current versions than mine
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    I have Photoshop 5.0 Limited Edition.  Can I upgrade this to a more current version for free?
    Are you being serious?
    What you can do is avail yourself of the free 30 day trial period of a more current version, though.

  • I have an iPod touch 2nd gen. Can I upgrade to a higher gen w/o buying a new iPod touch?

    I have an IPod touch 2nd gen. Can I upgrade to a higher gen w/o buying another IPod touch? I have an iPhone4 which I love but don't want to get rid of the IPod touch.

    No but they usually have one every year. If I had know Id get a free ipod 2 years ago when I bought mine if I got a macbook I wouldve ditched the PC and purchased a macbook and got an ipod as well, it was more of a sarcastic remark and heads up for future possible promotions that seem to be routine, than an actual statement.
    PS: if your looking to upgrade and dont know what to do with your old one Id recommend recycle program apple has- 10%off purchase of a new one when you recycle old ipod touch with apple.

  • I have AT&T & Curve 8300 running BIS - Can I upgrade-

    to version 2.5 of the device firmware along with the companion v4.5 or 4.6 desktop software?
    Here's a little background:
    I bought my Curve last fall at an AT&T store.  I had been a quite satisfied Palm customer since 1994 and so had accumulated over 1500 very detailed contact records, as well lots and lots of appointments.  But I had to return my latest Palm device, a Treo 680 within the 30 day warranty period due to a severe problem with battery life.  To my frank amazement, it stay charged up enough for use for more 3-4 hours at a time.  (I'm a heavy data user but not that heavy!)  So I decided to make the big switch, thinking that Palm technology was becoming obsolete anyway and the company's future was in doubt. 
    It turns out this was a really good move, except for one thing:  with the Treo I had become acustomed to not needing to lug my laptop around on planes, etc. because I could do most anything I needed on the Palm, including most MS Office work via the Dataviz software product Documents To Go.   While this software was not yet available for BB at the time, I was told that this was coming in a few months.  So I decided to get by without MS Office temporarily - really meaning only the loss of MS Word and Excel because I knew that the Curve integrated well with MS Outlook. 
    But what I didn't expect was to still be waiting 15 months later!
    As I say, I've been very happy with my Curve and Dataviz did in fact come out with the BB platform support a few months ago.  However, the issue remaining is that this software requires me to upgrade to at least v4.5 BB Desktop (I'm running 4.3 now) and to upgrade to Curve firmware version 2.5 (I'm running firmware v2.4.2 now). 
     I was in contact with AT&T "support" again today and I'm still being stonewalled. The trouble is AT&T only supports the software versions I'm running now and apparently have no plans to support anything newer.
    Obviously there are no worries about running desktop v4.5, but I have two specific questions about the v2.5 firmware:
    1.  Can I upgrade the firmware to 2.5 and still safely receive AT&T voice and BIS data services?  I guess what I'm really asking is whether there are compatiability issues I shold be aware of???
    2. If I find later that have any issues, or AT&T arrests me (kidding, sort of) can I safely downgrade back to firmware v2.2.4?
    I don't care a wit about whether AT&T offically supports these O/S versions.  There little of that expected or needed anyway.  What I'm asking is "will it work technically or is AT&T doing something funky on their network with file transfer protocols, etc.?"
    Any feedback here will be much appreciated!

    1) Use the link below to your model. 
    2) Do a complete backup with Desktop Manager. I always do that, AND sync my data/contacts, calendar, to Outlook as well, to be safe.
    3) Follow the instructions in the link EXACTLY as posted, and IN ORDER as posted, and you will be fine.
