It appears to me that you would need a boot device with 10.5.6 already installed, and to NOT be running any Westmere features (such as 6-core processors) to have any hope. Also, drivers for 5770 and 5870 first appeared in 10.6.5, so getting your displays to work may be tough.
Custom 10.6.4 or "Full Retail" 10.6.5 is much more likley to succeed.

  • Re installing Final Cut Studio on my NEW Mac pro?

    I originally purchased Final Cut Studio (on a G5 Power PC), Then installed the universal crossgrade,
    then installed Final Cut Studio 2. Now I have a New Mac Pro (Intel Chips) How do I go about
    reinstalling FCS? do I need the original serial key from the first version or do I just use my
    FCS 2 serial Key?
    J>H<L

    J>H<L
    You'll need both keys, but you only have to do one installation.
    The FCS2 installer will ask for the FCS2 key. If that passes, another window will open asking for the FCS key. If that key passes, then it's just a normal installation.

  • Trying to install an Adobe Application on my New Mac Pro????

    I just purchased a new Mac Pro. I got it mainly because I want to be able to use programs like After Effects CS3 at fast speeds. I have like 5 gigs in my computer right now so I'm excited to get started. Only thing is......my version of After Effects CS3 was acting weird so I decided to Re-install it. I threw the unwanted After Effects Install in the Program "App Zapper" which supposedly erases everything associated with the program......essentially you're supposed to be able to zap yourself CLEAN of the program.
    When I tried to reinstall the computer told me that I can't install because it thinks its still there?? aAre there remnants of the program to remove so the installer doesn't think its on there??? Where are they??? I tried to find anything named After Effects CS3....I can't find anything??? Any Advice

    Hi Keith Middlemiss;
    I had a very similar thing happen to me with the PS CS3 beta. I removed it and attempted to install the real version when it came out only to be given an error message about it still being on my system. Finally I went to the Adobe forum and discovered that there was an uninstall script there. Once I ran that then CS3 installed without any problems.
    I was looking around on my system for tracks of this script but I was not able to find any.
    My suggestion would be to go to the Adobe forum and check around for uninstall scripts. While I do like the Adobe applications, I hate the way they way they stick stuff everywhere in your system.

  • Installing ssd 512 GB on my new Mac Pro Westmere 6 cores

    I bought a Mac Pro with a 2 TB HD. Now i am buying a SSD 512 GB. Can someone tell me how to transfer my OSX 6.4 system and all my application. I would like to boot from that SSD i run my application from that SSD, so it would be faster. And i would leave the HD to store photos, films, etc. My precise question how to do this... I read the Mac Pro guide, but nothing is expliained.
    Thank you in advance!
    JP

    Hi-
    You could clone the existing drive to the new one using SuperDuper!.
    http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html
    You could also install OS X on the SSD and then use Migration Assistant to transfer the applications over.

  • Cannot install Final Cut Studio 7 on new Mac Pro

    I've just purchased Final Cut Studio 7 (Academic edition) for my Mac Pro (brand new G4 running 10.6.2), and it refuses to install. When I start the download package I get an Alert:
    "Final Cut Studio Installer requires that your system have a Quartz Extreme capable video card."
    and just quits. I looked on the specs online (http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/specs/) and it states that I need
    "ATI or NVIDIA graphics processor (integrated Intel graphics processors not supported)"
    I have 2 NVIDIA graphics cards, both GeForce GT 120. Are these not Quartz Extreme capable video cards?

    First of all you don't have a G4. A G4 is an obsolete computer that doesn't run Final Cut Studio.

  • Install 'SATA cable connect' Velociraptors in new Mac Pro????

    hi everyone,
    I need some help please. A specific question regarding Western Digital Velociraptor hard drives:
    I have three of the 300GB 'SATA cable connect' model Velociraptors. I installed them into my PowerMac G5 2x2.7ghz computer without difficulty but I want to move them. I want to install them into my soon-to-be-in-hand Mac Pro (2x2.93 quad-core Nehalem).
    Can I do this or do I have to buy 'backplane ready' versions of the Velociraptors?
    This is the address to WD's page on the ones I want to install...
    http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?DriveID=459
    (sorry it's not hot. I've a strange 'cut and paste' malfunction happening today...)
    Your help's appreciated.
    thanks,
    JQ

    There is an adapter so it will line up inside.
    Some have put one or two in the lower optical drive bay in the past.
    Ideal is black-plane ready which came out slightly later.

  • How to  install OS X Tiger on new Mac Pro

    Does anyone why you can´t install OS X Tiger on the new Mac Pro? I bought it recently and it came with Leopard of course but I really need to run Tiger because of many of my plug-ins for Protools costs a fourtune to upgrade...
    Is it possible to do it? Workaround anybody..?

    Is the hardware in the mac pro all that different than to the one shipped with Tiger???
    I don't know all the differences, but iirc, the Graphics card is a big diff.
    I have Tiger discs for a mac mini shipped just before 2008, would that work you think?
    Can only guess, but no, I don't think it would, all Tiger disks for IntelMacs are Machine specific.
    Sorry, can't help with the links, I've just read about attempts & the difficulties.

  • Cannot install Final Cut Studio on new Mac Pro

    When I go to install Final Cut Studio on my new Mac Pro, it tells me that "Final Cut Studio Installer requires that your system have a Quartz Extreme capable video card."
    I have the ATI 5870 and, just a wild guess here, I'm betting it does support Quartz Extreme.
    A software update doesn't help me here because I cannot get the software installed the first place to be able to update it. What should I do?

    FCS 1...Final Cut Pro 5.0? Won't work on an Intel. PowerPC only. You need at least 5.1...which wasn't a free upgrade, so updating won't work. You need FCP 5.1, FCP 6 or the most recent FCP 7. Those are the only versions that will work on the newer macs.

  • Installed my logic 9.0.0 on my new mac pro, updated it to 9.1.5, it accepts my serial, but then asks me for an "original serial" that I don't have..? What should I do ?

    Please Help !
    I bought Logic studio, with logic pro 9.0.0 last year, worked perfectly on my macbook pro.
    Just got a new mac pro, with macos 10.7 Lion.. I install the software, serial works,
    then I update the software,because 9.0.0 can't open in os 10.7, and after accepting my serial,
    it asks me for an "original serial" that I have no idea about..
    sry for the english..
    Please HELP, I cant survive without logic more than an hour !

    I think this is a known problem with Lion and some installs of Logic, I've seen it mentioned before.

  • How to install windows xp on bootcamp on new Mac mini?

    How can i install windows xp on bootcamp on new Mac mini?
    I know that i should get an external usb optical drive, but buying such hardware for one use is a waste of money. Is there any other method?
    I currently own a MacBook white, and really like the configuration. I it possible to copy the image of bootcamp to new mac mini? If so, what will happen to hardware and drivers?

    Admiralali wrote:
    Let me get this right:
    1- copy the exact image of the winxp installation dc to USB
    2- start bootcamp assistant, go through everything, till rebooting
    3- boot from USB (hold ALT and select the USB volume)
    4- go through winxp setup and done!
    Am I missing anything?
    I think that USB would be readable only on Mac os or winxp, but will the winxp installer read from USB?
    Correct me if wrong.
    Having read further websites, I am now a bit more dubious you can do this, at least with an XP installer.
    However if you have a USB memory stick and an existing Windows computer (even a Boot Camp one) or can borrow one you could try using the free WinToFlash utility to make a supposedly bootable USB memory stick of the installer. See http://wintoflash.com/overview/en/
    The problem is XP predates EFI firmare and XP only really knows BIOS firmware. As such (supposedly) XP would have problems booting from a USB device fully - it might lose connection part way through. Windows Vista and 7 do support EFI firmware.
    The other approach I mentioned of temporarily moving the hard disk from the Mini to the MacBook so you can use the MacBook internal CD/DVD drive would work - be careful of the cables. Fortunately a new Mac mini and an old MacBook are two of the easier models to get at the hard disk. See http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook-Core-2-Duo-Hard-Drive-Replacement/514/1 (they also list other MacBook models) and http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Installing-Mac-Mini-Mid-2011-Hard-Drive-Replacement/ 6422/1
    Regardless of which method you try, the first step would be on the Mac mini to run Boot Camp Assistant and to create the partition for Windows. Then via either method try booting from a Windows XP installer.
    As I have taken Macs apart many times, I personally might go the swapping the hard disk over route.
