Is anyone running 10.3.9 successfully on an imac G5?

For multiple reasons, mainly the due to the woefully inadequate features of osx server 10.3.9 I've had to downgrade all out imac G5s to 10.3.9.
Everything seems to be running nicely again but we have no audio on any of the imacs.
I've seen a few posts on the web where peeps are saying they have the same problem and as per usual apple have washed their hands of the situation.
Has anyone here got 10.3.9 running with audio?

I understand that 10.3.9 will have problems running on an imacG5.
But still, I don't have much choice.
It seems 10.4.2 clients and server running Panther just don't mix.We've had loads of AFP permission issues as well as resource fork problems when we tried to use SMB instead.
Apple simply reccommended upgrading the server to tiger or running cron scripts to continually reset the file permissions on the servers sharepoints.
So it looks like its cron time for me.
Unless anyones worked out how to get the sound running on 10.3.9.Oh and also my fan is continually running......
What really winds me up about this is that apple don't seem to be taking any action about it, even a tech note just warning of the problem would save many of us hours of pointless work.

Has anyone run Maya 7 on their MacBook Pro/iMac Core Duo/Mac Mini Core Duo?

Hi,
I plan on getting a MacBook Pro to replace my Powerbook 1.25 GHz.
I cannot find any info on a universal binary for Maya and was just wondering if anyone has actually tried it on an Intel based Mac.
If so, how is it? Is it like a G4, faster/slower? Does it even install?
I tried looking in these forums and the rest of the internet but couldn't really find anyone who has actually got it up and running on an Intel Mac.
Also, probably worth noting that the only other PPC apps I have tested on a MacBook Pro that are quite resource hungry are Cinema 4D, another 3D app that still takes advantage of dual processors even under rosetta and Google Earth. Both of these apps actually run quite a bit faster than my PowerBook and the universal binary version of Cinema 4D is breathtakingly fast.
Navigating around Google Earth esp. with 3D buildings turned on in New York is very smooth in contrast to the "choppy-ness" of my PowerBook.
Any real world feedback would be superb,
Thanks in advance!

Our Maya tests are also pitiful for the poor MacBook. Maya, like LightWave, has not yet been ported to Intel hardware for Mac OS X. It lost out in every single test to every other piece of hardware. However, if you look at the results of the slightly more powerful MacBook Pro, you can see the potential for Maya on the 13-inch MacBook once it is finally ported.

OWB in restricted mode issues.. anyone running successfully?

We are attempting to run OWB while our database is in restricted mode to allow us to do our updates while restricting other activity but we are running into what seems to be connection issues with the design and control centers. We have added (UR=A) to the tnsnames file and can connect from sqlplus as our design center owner, but I am wondering if some similiar modification is needed within an owb configuration as I know a lot of owb connections are set up using host:port:service and am not sure if somehow that needs a change as well to allow the connection or if that will pick up the change in the tnsnames as well. Anyone have any experience or success with running owb in restricted mode.
Thanks,
Rich
Additional Info: 10.2.0.3 DB on AIX5L 5.3 running OWB 10.2.0.3 with 10.2.0.3.33 clients

I can't believe that no one has ever tried this before as it seems like something that would be relatively common. Anyone have any experience with this combination at all regardless of success or failure?

CS3 is unsupported under Windows 8. That said, you'll need to contact Adobe

Has anyone run into the problem of downloading or opening an E.pdf file? I am running on 10.6.8 and am unable to open the file. Any suggestions?

Has anyone run into the problem of downloading or opening an E.pdf file? I am running on 10.6.8 and am unable to open the file. Any suggestions?

That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

The iPhone cannot be synced. Unknown error (13019) - anyone run into this?

The iPhone cannot be synced. Unknown error (13019) - anyone run into this?

Stephen's got you covered.
I've also seen the following reported cause/workaround:
After several Google searches I found the iPad syncing problem to be caused by iPhoto 9.4 not handling the & correctly in names. It's not recognizing them as & which is causing problems with XML. You can manually change them or wait for Apple to issue a fix to iPhoto 9.4. I started to do the manual fix & I just have too many to change.
(Manual renaming isn't going to be an easy/good workaround for a bunch of folks, though.)

Is anyone running Photoshop CS6 on a Windows Vista 32 bit machine without problems

Is anyone running Photoshop CS6 on a Windows Vista 32 bit machine without problems? I have over 400 GB,s free disc space (c drive) and still am getting lots of errors and program closing problems. I do not have USB3 on my machine so if I purchased a few 256 GB ssd drives would this help it from crashing?
Thank you in advance for any guidance.

Jack, as Curt has suggested, available drive space comes well down the list regards a happy experience with Photoshop. You have also asked a self-defeating question, because the fact you are running Vista, and a 32bit version at that, more or less precludes the ability to run without problems.
Windows 7 was billed as the first MS OS to need less system resources than its predecessor. If your system hardware will support 64bit, then consider paying $90 for an OS upgrade What is your system out of interest? I have a feeling you are running with just 2Gb RAM, which just isn’t enough. Post your specs or make and model, and I am sure you’ll get some help with what your mainboard will handle by way of RAM and whether it will support 64bit.

Anyone Running Aperture 3, One library with 150,000+ Photos?

Would like to now if anyone is running Aperture 3 with a very large Library? Ideally I would like to hear from anyone running one library with 150,000 images or more. I'm planning to Import just short of 200,000 images and I'm hoping it will handle it. If anyone responds I would be grateful for mac specs as well. . Thanks for your input in advance.

Aperture Applets Blog Posts

You'll not have any trouble with most processes on any dual-core 2GHz Mac with 4 or more GB RAM. (With only 4 GB, you shouldn't run any other programs when Aperture in running.)
Sharing Previews is a no-no (but IME it is the single biggest bog-field in the app). Load time will go up. Faces may become slow. It will take A LONG TIME (days) for Aperture to finish all its initial internal processing. Search the forum for general suggestions on keeping Aperture running well.
I built up a test library of 250,000 images just to make sure. I was able to run this Library off of an external FW400 drive (the whole Library, not just the Masters) on a 2.3 GHZ dual-core laptop w. 4 GB RAM.
I have since put together a database of 350,000+ images. It runs fine. I'd say it runs "normal" on all machines, as long as operations are kept to 100 images or so. Relocating a quarter-million Masters will take some time. Moving 10,000 images into new Projects, or moving those Projects into new Albums, can take a few minutes (but under ten).
You should set aside a week for the import and all the processing. I strongly suggest turning Faces off until the Library is structured and working (you've made most major changes and you've not stumbled across any glitches). Then you can turn Faces on and let it run in the background for a few days. I suggest NEVER turning on "Share Previews". YMMV.
My experience w. a 350,000 image Library leads me to believe that it could handle 10x that. The breakdown of the work seems to have been well-engineered to fit the currently available pipelines. But -- the faster your machine, the faster Aperture will run. Tony Gay and I compared his PowerMac with my MacBookPro for some Aperture tasks -- his was twice as fast.

When downloading the trial, has anyone run into download issues?

when downloading the trial, has anyone run into download issues?

I remembered we have weird permission issues at work. Somewhere between my Home Windows 8 machine(horrible permissions issues with network), my home mac, email and my work computer, some permission got out of whack. The workaround for this was copying the file to my desktop, back to the exact same spot on the network. This resolved all issues.

Is anyone running a OCZ Core SSD?

I have an inconsistency running a OCZ Core SSD with my K9A2 CF.With a regular HDD Samsung HD321KJ no problem whatsoever.
Sometimes the OCZ Core is very fast and sometimes so slow I get a freeze/hiccup for just a split second.
File copy goes sometimes with >80MB/s and sometimes with KB/s
I've made a support ticket with OCZ. It could be the drive is just faulty.

Sake also keep in mind that the SB600 is a mediocre SB. SSDs should show it's lack of performance.
Well, the OCZ NON-Core works just fine with SB600. MSI K9A2 Platinum.....
http://www.anandtech.com/storage/showdoc.aspx?i=3311&p=3
The SB600 even has higher max throughput as the MCP51...
It's not performance but occassional short freeze with the SB600 that it makes feel perform mediocre with the MLC based SSD.
So IMHO pure a matter of compatibility.

Sorry, but we're all users like you, no MSI staff here. If you want to contact MSI support about it, you'll need to open a ticket at http://ocss.msi.com.tw
I've contacted MSI. That's no help. I'd guessed that. Obviously not tested (yet) and a matter of luck that it works out of the box.

Battlefield 1942 Anthology issues... anyone run into same issues???

Alright peep's. It's that time when I look for a little insight.
I've got a stackload of PC games I said I was going to knock out when I had time. The issue I'm having is regarding Battlefield 1942. I got the boxset with all the expansions a few months back. I installed it and it went through properly. I configure the game to run with everything turned on and maxxed out, it begins to load. The issue I have then is when I try and select a spawning point, the game just locks up where I need to do a hard reset. I've got the latest update preinstalled even tried bringing down the resolution. The game actually worked once and was playable @ 1024 x 768 for about 8 minutes, then the game locked up again. I tried factory defaults and got no where. I recall reading somewhere else that some older games have issues with SLi. I just can't find that article with games listed. Is anyone running BF 1942 or has it installed without any issues with an SLi rig??? Any insight will be appreciated. I'd like to play a former game of the year on my PC and knock it out amongst my "Games to finish" list.
BTW, since I couldn't get that game to run I installed Half-Life 2. Sick friggin' game. Awesome. Knocked it out in four nights. I think I'll get the expansion when it comes out in May. I'm now playing Star Wars: Republic Commando. Not bad for a FPS but I've played better.

Two things:
1- I understand that this is a HARDWARE based messageboard. All other software and games work A-O-K. This is an exception so it would point to some sort of possible HARDWARE conflict with older SOFTWARE now, huh???
2- Thermaltake 680w with SLi connectors.
Realistcally, I'm not trying to be a smart a$$. I brought it up here because I know CoD is a popular game that many have gone through it like water. I posted because I've seen others with driver issues, software and/or OS conflicts, uncertainities, etc., and I laid out some wisdom and advice. Think I'm lying? Try reading a few boards regarding the K8N Diamond Plus, Sound Blaster XFi, video card issues, RAM questions, heck even overclocking. I'm still leaving feedback on EVGA's messageboard and I don't even own their motherboard anymore.
All in all, I'm looking for help and a solution just like everyone else. And if you don't think that me being adult enough to ask for help then please just don't post any bulletins or feedback since I guess you get things to run flawlessly and you need no help whatsoever.
And to others who actually made a positive contribution, thank you genuinely.

Anyone running a Nvidia GTX680 Mac Edition in there Mac Pro

I was thinking of putting this card in 3.06 12 core, and my son's 2008 2.8 8 core. Is anyone running this card? Does it play nice with both OSX, and Windows?

The people that are you will find on MacRumors and thread like the one on X-Plane. You do need Mountain lion.
GTX 680 (2 or 4MB VR) and X-Plane 10 ( 1 2 3 4 5)
GTX 680 4GIG model and power requirements (MP 4.1)?
GTX680 Or Sapphire 7950?
Barefeats tested those too:
May 10th, 2013 -- Do the newest GPUs run faster on the 2010 Mac Pro than on the 2009 and 2008 Mac Pro?
April 26th, 2013 -- PART THREE: EVGA GeForce GTX 680 Mac Edition versus the 'Sharks' (insane GPUs like the GeForce GTX 580 Classified and GTX 690)
April 18th, 2013 -- PART TWO: EVGA GeForce GTX 680 "Mac Edition" Versus Past and Present Mac GPUs running Pro Apps
April 16th, 2013 -- PART ONE: EVGA GeForce GTX 680 "Mac Edition" versus Past and Present Mac GPUs running OpenGL accelerated Games and Benchmarks
Would have thought you have been around here long enough to have seen these.
