I have a Mac Pro Intel Xeon 3.2 Ghz Quad core (mid 2012) using OSX 10.7.5) and cannot get iDVD to run.

I have a Mac Pro Intel Xeon 3.2 Ghz Quad core (mid 2012) using OSX 10.7.5) and cannot get iDVD to run. I tried 7.0.4 and 7.1.2, both from Apple software update and both crash during "loading themes". I am reluctant to upgrade OSX from 10.7.5 because I do not want to loose Final Cut Express 4.0.1. Apple Care no longer supports iDVD. I want a version if iDVD that supports Chapter markers as in iDVD 7.?.? that i used with my old (now deceased) Apple Power PC Mac Pro.

iDVD 7 should work fine with 10.7.5.  Try this basic troubleshooting fix:
1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete IDVD'S cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder. 
3 - launch IDVD and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

    See options below:
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • Upgrading RAM for an iMAC  Intel Core i5 2.8 GHz Quad Core - Late 2012 (I'm guessing).

    I have an iMAC Intel Core i5 2.8 GHz Quad Core - Late 2012 (I'm guessing).  I am trying to upgrade the RAM of my iMAC and I am not sure how to go about it. Running on OSx 10.6.3
    This iMac has 4 slots - Currently my RAM is using 2 slots with 4 GB so I have 8 GB right now. 
    The speed is 1333MHz. Now I have some RAM that could get to 32GB but the 4 RAM chips speed is
    1866 MHz.
    Would it be possible to swap my old RAM (8GB) 1333MHz for the new 1866mhz RAM? even with the difference in speed?  The RAM is from Crucial. 
    If possible I can try and swap the RAM if I get inside my iMAC.

    If you are really running 10.6.3, then you do not have a 2012 machine. Please check to see if this is yours (it's a 2010):
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac-core-i5-2.8-27-inch-alumin um-mid-2010-specs.html
    It also mentions the exact specs of the RAM. I would only use the RAM supported by Apple; using the higher speed rated RAM will not result in higher speed.

  • Need a new mac pro! Can I boot MacPro 6,1 (mid 2012) with an internal HD with OS 10.6 (Snow Leo)?

    5 hours after reading here: (so much information that says "yes" "maybe" "no".....)
    I want and have to change my actual MacPro (late 2007) to a newer one, because without my business is over.
    The newest one (end 2013) is not possible, because my other hardware is too old for that one.
    (still need Firewire and Rosetta)
    So I decided to buy an older "classicle" MacPro to put my 3 or 4 pieces of 2TB HDD in...
    ...... But I still need Rosetta, -> OS 10.6
    My question is:
    Can I boot a mac 6,1 (mid 2012) with a Harddisk with 10.6, I take out of my old machine?
    yes? anything to be aware or to update? (answeres here say mostly yes, sometimes, never ...)
    For sure I am interested in the latest model..... but will it work?
    If not:  I will buy a mac 5,1 (mid 2010).
    Anything to be aware or to update, if I pull in my HD with 10.6 out of the old model from late 2007?
    I don't want to downgrade to SL !!!!!!!
    I just want the Possibility to boot internal from the original OS on the first drive and from 10.6 on a second drive !!)
    (This good old Power Machines (all in one) will be jewels next year.....)  ;-)

    Mac OS X versions (builds) for computers
    For example the Mac Pro 2010 CAN run 10.6.4 or later BUT--
    --- the last "Full Retail" 10.6 DVD conatins 10.6.3, which will not boot. You need a different Mac of just the right age to Install on, [starting from a Full Retail DVD, not a DVD from a different model] update to 10.6.8, then swap the drive over.
    The assertion has been made that the 2012 model (which runs 5,1 firmware) is indistinguishable from the 2010 model (which runs 5,1 firmware) as far as Hardware and therefore as far as what Mac OS X it can run. EveryMac.com agrees that this model will run 10.6.4.

  • I have a Mac PC OSx, version 10.5 and cannot get Icloud even though I have downloaded all new software?     gh I have downloaded all available software.

    I have a Mac PC, OS X, 10.5.8  Version but cannot download ICloud and I was led to believe this version supports it.  I have downloaded all available software.  Does anyone have suggestions?  Just realized I need later version - - 10.7.5 or later.  How do I go about upgrading this operatin system?

    10.7 is no longer avaiable for immediate download. You need to purchase a download code, which will be delived by email in 1 to 3 business days. Using that code, you can download the software from the Mac App Store, and it will stay available for re-download from that Apple-ID.

  • How slow should a Mac mini with i7 2.3 GHz quad core be?

    I am really disappointed about how mind numbingly slow this computer is for even the most basic tasks.  I'm wondering is something wrong with it or is this just what happens when you don't have an SSD? 
    I have been using exclusively SSDs in my computers since about late 2009 or early 2010 and since then I have never really felt my computer was utlra slow.  I got a Mac mini as a temporary computer when my MacBook Pro started blowing up logic boards every other week while it is endlessly being "repaired".  Since this has the same exact processor I expected it to be reasonably speedy at least for simple tasks like web browsing, email, word processing, etc. (no heavy graphics work) but it's not.  Every experience is hard drive *crunch* *crunch* *crunch*, wait wait wait, *crunch* *crunch* *crunch*.  It's really very slow even on the simplest tasks and if I am running a few things it's like molasses.  According to activity monitor as expected the CPU is not taxed in the slightest.
    Is there something wrong or is this just what it's like going back to hard drives that spin?  Is there something I should be testing or looking into?   At least I can say that it doesn't crash.
    Timed with a stop watch it takes about 10-15 seconds to launch any of the following with nothing else open: Excel (blank workboook), Mail app, Firefox, etc.  It's worse with lots of things open.  Always tons audible hard drive activity no matter what I'm doing.

    First, back up all data immediately unless you already have a current backup. If you can't back up, stop here. Do not take any of the steps below.
    Step 1
    This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}' | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    Step 2
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
    Step 3
    When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
    Step 4
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • HT201272 I recently got a new computer and authorized it. I have only been able to find the newest of purchases. I am missing hundreds of downloads/playlists and cannot get them to sync from my ipod. How do I locate all my playlists?

    I have hundreds of songs, most of them purchased from the ITunes Store. I am only able to find the newest of purchases. I have a new laptop (my old one died) and have de-authorized the old PC and authorized the new one.
    I thought I might have two separate id's, for some reason, but am unable to find any info re the possible second one. i.e., cannot log in, apple does not recognize it as a user id.
    Everything I have/had is on my IPod but I am unable to migrate the music from the IPod to my PC. I have downloaded all the updates for the PC and the IPod. I am at a loss as to how to recover my music and cannot find a way to contact anyone at Apple without having to pay a fee.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • New Mac Pro (Intel) booting a Power Mac (PC) OS

    I have the newest version of the Mac Pro G5 and I'd like to know.... if by installing the OS drive from the older PC based G5, can I still access it as a mountable drive and more importantly, can I make it a bootable drive and boot from it, running the older OS ?
    The old drive is running 10.5.8.... it's going into the latest Mac Pro G5. My instincts tell me "no" but it sure would be convenient while I grab some things from my older drive.
    Thanks!

    Welcome and hope you get a lot of fun and enjoyment from your Intel Mac!
    No way can you boot from a G5 OS, even the Apple Partition Table has been known to cause trouble, or the presence of the OS.
    The Mac Pro is never called by or use "G5" which refers to 5th generation PowerPC.
    Best bet is pull the data you want off the drive and initialize it.
    Also, using migration assistant is well known for causing so much trouble and mischief, strongly recommended not to use it for apps, just your data, media and preference files (mail, web etc) and do clean install of your apps.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=435350
    Even if most apps are Universal Binary, it doesn't take much, not worth the savings, if you do go against instinct, I'd actually make backup images / clones first. May as well get a good backup set with SuperDuper to start off on right foot.
    The newest Mac Pro (Intel, Xeon processor "Nehalem"). And your Mac will come with 10.6.2+ build. It would be a stretch (of the imagination) to boot properly.

  • I have a Mac Pro 4,1 quad core intel Xeon running mac OSX 10.6.8 and I have just moved studios and now need to use the Internet wirelessly but there's no airport facilities on this model can anyone tell me what model of airport card I would need for this

    Instead of getting a wireless card for the Mac Pro, you might want to consider getting an 802.11ac wireless bridge device that would enable you to connect more than one device to it by Ethernet cable and to eventually take advantage of the faster 802.11ac wireless standard.

  • Mac Pro 3.2 GHZ Quad-Core Intel Xeon Running Slow

    Hi everyone!
    I'm a professional photographer and could use some advise, and thanks for your help in advance!
    I have a Mac Pro 3.2 GHZ Quad-Core Intel Xeon with 8 gigs of 1066 MHz DDR3 of memory, running on OS 10.9.5, and my main drive for applications is 1TB and has about 420 GB free. I have various other hard drives for storage.
    I use Chrome, Lightroom 4, Photoshop CC2014, Blogstomp, Spotify or iTunes, and I have Backblaze Backup running continuously.
    When I first got my computer I didn't have any problems, but over the past few months it's been running super slow. I know that LR4 has issues, but I want to make sure that there isn't anything else I need to look into before getting more memory. I mean even Chrome opening up has the beachball.
    Thanks!

    The output from that, post it, can be useful.

    Good tips and advice can be found here, also pro graphics
    Macintosh Performance Guide Articles & Reviews
    My guess is this is a 5,1 2010-2012. You could use a GTX 680 or later, it has good PCIe (the 2009 is somewhat weaker and crippled by sharing slots 3&4)
    A Samsung XP941 512 $525 delivers 1100MB/sec reads and 900MB/sec writes to supercharge your system - one of the best and few such, similar to the same SSD blade used in the nMP 6,1. Lightroom and CS love to be able to load and write scratch, graphic libraries. Bootable. You could use a smaller 256GB $275 for system in slot #3 and one for data and scratch in slot #4 if you wanted to go full out.
    You said it was fine originally so maybe something you installed, or an upgrade to the OS or something else that Etrecheck should help show.

    Is there not a full 10.7 OS Disc?
    There is no official DVD at all, but there is a thumb drive with both 106 and 10.7 on it for US$70.
    On an older Mac, about 2010 or older, you need access to one of:
    • The Mac App Store ( such as on a Mac with a working 10.6.8 or better)
    • working Recovery HD
    • a bootable 10.7 Installer, on thumb drive, Hard drive, or DVD
    So for ONE 2010 or older Mac with a bad drive, you would have to buy the US$70 Apple thumb drive, or have previously made a DVD or Hard Drive when you previously downloaded 10.7. Or you re-install 10.6.8 then overwrite it with the downloaded 10.7.
    • another Mac with 10.7 installed so you could transfer Recovery HD to the down Mac with "Lion Recovery Disk Assistant"
    OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery Disk Assistant
    On some 2010 and most 2011 models, if Recovery HD is messed up or not Installed, but you have a working Broadband connection [with DHCP enabled], the Firmware has been upgraded so it will boot from the Internet and do the whole job using "Lion Internet Recovery" as described in the second section of this glossy article:
    http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/
    If no DHCP is available [no Router upstream, either yours or your ISP's], it may not work.

    mke52, is your MP an Intel machine? If so, you need to upgrade to Snow Leopard.
    If not, 10.5.8 is the best you can do.

    If it is as simple as adding more ram, what mode-part #l would you recomeend.  Can the processor be upgraded also ?
    The new tube like Macs are non compatible with UAD Cards.  Those cards a must my sessions

    You can use Activity Monitor to check if apps run as 32 or 64 bit - simply look at the "Kind" column (you may need to select it under View -> Columns) and see if the app in question is listed as "Intel" i.e. 32 bit or as "Intel (64 bit)".
    While in Activity Monitor you can also check if Pro Tools is close to the 3-4 GB limit of a 32 bit app - if you aren't you will probably not benefit from more RAM.
    Your MacPro (it appears to be a Early 2009 model) should have come with a small booklet showing how to install RAM and what kind of RAM that you need. Any RAM that fulfills the requirements should work but your safest choice is probably to buy from a retailer/online store that supports Macs as they will usually know what kind of RAM you need for your mac model.
    Upgrading the CPUs should be possible, but I haven't seen Apple document how to do this, so you will probably have to google around a bit to find instructions and CPU part numbers.
    Your choice of CPUs will also be limited by the motherboard and CPU socket so you may be limited to faster version of your current CPU chip and some slightly newer versions.
    Going from your current CPU to the fastest version included in the 2009 MacPros would be going from 2.26 GHz to 2.93 GHz. This would only give a modest 30% speed boost. Using newer and highly clocked CPUs might boost this somewhat more maybe to 50% ?
