I am not sure what monitor will run on this mac pro bought in Spring of 2007. Is there any monitor with a built in camera that can be used on this machine?
I have confirmed with apple that it cannot run the LED monitors that apple sells.
suggestions or if you know what monitors I can try to find would be great. If you need more information, please let me know. I want to be able to do this right. Thank you so much.

I know there were many more problems 5 yrs ago with 3rd party monitors and have been some issues in between also.
Apple does have what is needed to use multiple 30 inch displays and the 5770 is pretty mainstream and standard.
It is also about the only card being sold outside ebay and a couple places in case you want to take your chances with Nvidia 8800GT 1st gen model or ATI 4870.

Need to erase hard drive and reinstall system on iMac but have misplaced original install disks. Tried to use a my copy of Snow lepord 10.6 from my Mac pro but will not boot. Can original install disks be replaced. Thanks

Yes the original Install Discs can be replaced for a nominal fee. Call AppleCare, you will need a credit card and the serial number of the machine. You can use the AppleCare Contact Info for the phone number on your part of the planet.

TS1362 I have a Mac Pro tower, am running osx and iTunes will not work.. It basically just stopped working after having run faultlessly for...years... I can see all the songs, playlists etc, but the progress bar will not progress..it's 'stuck'. Suggestion

I have a Mac Pro tower am running OSX and iTunes will not work. It has always worked flawlessly. I can see all my iTunes content- my playlists, my songs et cetera, But I cannot play anything. The progress bar is 'stuck'...any suggestions?

Thanks. I have been using iTunes since its inception and have never had a problem...I'm using the latest version. The progress bar is the bar that moves when you're playing a song..it just won't start when I double click on a song,..have tried quitting, rebooting etc but nothing works. Apple are useless-they have told me twice they've tried to call me 'momentarily', but I've been waiting by the phone, and they definitely have not tried to call...

I have a Mac Pro OS 10.7.5 and have a DVD+R disc with files on it, but it ejects the disk after about 10 seconds--what to do? How can I get the data off this disc? I can see it has been already burned, so files are on there?

Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive. Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth) around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.
Ciao.

Why would you say that LiveCycle is the only thing to recommend (but isn't available for Macs) then bring up InDesign?
If it can't be done by the Mac OS (she hasn't mentioned what she has) then it can be done with Acrobat. She asked about a program to create PDF files. That's pretty much what Acrobat does.
where is whatI said.
Being That LiveCycle designer is not availble for Mac. That would be about the only thing to recommend. InDesign Maybe but more pricey.
The part I've underline refers to Acrobat. InDesign Maybe but more pricey referes to, Indesign being more expensive than Acrobat.

Have my MacBook Pro plugged into a monitor and also using a wireless keyboard. I want to close the macBook but every time I do the monitor turns off - is there a way to avoid this?

Press any key on the wireless keyboard after you close the MBP and it goes to sleep. The computer will wake up with the external monitor as its display. This is called Clamshell mode.

Niel, I found a way to download Safari 6.1.6 but it failed because the installer couldn't create the folder '/var/folders/lg/pqypcsnn715btrs106b9crpr0000gn/T//Install.3334NgcMxu"

Mac pro cinema display cuts out and can't access Mac with screen sharing

Hi
A weird thing has started happening to my Mac Pro today. After using it for a few minutes the cinema display it is attached to on the Mac Pro just goes black. The Mac Pro is clearly still on - the light is on and i can hear the fans. The Mac Pro shows up on my local network and i can connect to it and access files from my Macbook, but screen sharing doesn't work (i just get the message 'contacting mac pro' and nothing else) and i can't connect to shared iTunes library either, which makes me think it is not just a display issue. I cannot wake the computer with the mouse or keyboard, which makes me think it isn't just a sleep issue. All i can do is physically turn the Mac Pro off, start it up and it will start up successfully and then work for a few more minutes before i get the same problem. I have reset the PRAM and SMC and still have the same problems. Can anyone suggest anything else i can try?
I should mention that i have another problem with the Mac Pro in that it has been spontaneously waking up from sleep and starting up from shutdown, and i still haven't resolved this. I don't know if it is connected to the above issue.
thanks
nick

I have experienced almost the exact same thing with my new 2008 Mac Pro and my 30" Apple display. It has happened to me twice in the last few weeks. The first time I chalked it up to a fluke, but now that it's happened again I searched the forums. In both cases I've had music playing in iTunes which continues playing, goes on to the next track, and so on. So the machine has not crashed in full. I too can connect to the files via another computer on the network, but cannot share the screen.
I have not had the sleep issues you have had.
I'll look at the link you provided in your next post to see where that gets me, but I wanted to let you know you were not alone on this one.
