Just added a 30 inch monitor and have a 23 inch flat screen. slow?

Just added a 30 inch monitor and have a 23 inch flat screen. I have 6 gigs of D RAM, and run Parallels which I give 2 gig's to. Since adding the 30 inch Apple monitor and upgraded video card the Mac is running slow. Anyone know why? Should I add 2 gigs more of memory?
Thanks in advance!
Mark

He's asking what are those things you are using, i.e., ...
What video card are you using?
What version of OSX are you using?
What model of mac pro are you using (e.g., 2010 Mac Pro is 5,1).
And also,
Try smc and pram reset.
And see if the monitor lites up if you boot in safe mode.
It is possible your monitor simply failed -- its power supply or something else.

  • I just added two external firewire drives and they keep going to sleep.  I did not have this problem when USB.  I have turned off "put disks to sleep" in power preference.

    I just added two external firewire drives and they keep going to sleep.  I did not have this problem when using USB external drives.  I have turned off "put disks to sleep" in power preference.

    It is not clear if these are the same drives, just connected
    differently, or different drives?
    One thing that may be happening is that the drives firmware
    itself is putting it to sleep when inactive.  Many drives on
    the market have ths feature and it is turned on by default
    and require a drive utility from the manufacturer to disable it.

  • I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though, itunes automatically putting books on my idevices

    I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though I did not want this. I added them to itunes using add to library and I have both devices set to sync only selected books.
    How do I do this in the future so this doesnt happen? Its a lot of work to now manually erase them from each device and it sent my phone over capacity.
    thanks

    I dont see the difference in the posts. I dont think theres anything inaccurate or misleading about what I wrote. The items were immediately added to my ipad and my iphone, even though I have them both set to sync only select items. As soon as I added new titles to my itunes library, they were immediately added to the devices. Not on the next sync. Immediately. Both devices were plugged into the computer at the time. Sorry if I failed to mention they were plugged in but I dont see the signifigance youre making out of it. The problem persists anyway.
    Now that I did a test without the devices plugged in, the new items were still added as soon as I plugged my devices into the computer ( I do not have them set to sync over wifi).
    Since I have both devices set to manually select items to sync, of course I want to manually select new items to sync. For instance, I am not going to read any of these magazines or books on my phone, ever, and I dont want to waste valuable space with them.
    So I'm trying your advice:
    I just tried deselecting sync books. It erased all content from ibooks on my device. I then dragged
    one title onto the device, and it just goes back to syncing select books, with the one title selected.
    It appears that wont work to solve my issue. The next time I add something to itunes it will be put on my phone. Is this really something most people want? To select to manualy control what content is synced, but then have things automatically added. It seems inconsistent to me.

  • HT201269 I have just received a new iPhone 4s and have connected to iTunes and done a restore but none of my purchased apps have come across. After the restore I click on done but the only option is to select my iPhone which takes me back to restore it ag

    I have just received a new iPhone 4s and have restored it from the last back up I did before I got the new phone, however, after I do the restore the only option I get is to click on "Done" at the top of the page but then no data or information from my phone shows up and when I click on the "iPhone" button on the top right hand side of the page it takes me back to the previous page and gives me the option to set up a new phone or restore again.  I have just restored my husbands iPhone 5 and had no issues at all.  They were both backed up on the same day last week.

    That does happen.  It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system.  If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.

    Sorry, don't know what you are asking. You have an old iPad Mini 3 and a new iPad Mini 3?  How did you set up the new iPad? Did you restore it from a backup of the old iPad? What photos are you not seeing?

    Hi norlowski,
    Do you already have the Kindle app downloaded to an iPhone or another iPad? Do you have "Automatic Downloads" turned on under Settings>iTunes & App Store for Apps on your iPad?
    You might want to try touching and holding the Kindle App option in your Purchased list, and when it highlights, let go, and it will go to a a detail page for the app with another "Open" option on it. See if it will open from there.
    If you do have Automatic Downloads turned on on the iPad, turn it off, and then go back to purchased to see if the Kindle is still showing as "Open".
    Post back with results!
    Cheers,

  • How to let Final Cut "ignore" other monitor and have preview on the largest

    How to let Final Cut "ignore" the other monitor" and have preview on the largest monitor?
    I have a setup with a MB Pro and an external Eizo 27" calibrated screen.
    Now I am using the 27" as the main screen with Final Cut with its panes and windows on it and the MBPro as preview (Command F12). I would like to see the preview on the large 27" when I hit Command F12 and not on the laptop sometimes. Any way to do this?
    When I do the "mirror" screen setup the resolution drops down on the Eizo 27" so that does not seem to be a good option.
    Any solutions?

    Try:
    View>Video Playback>Digital Cinema Desktop-Main

  • Just brought my daughter an iphone and have her setup on my ID. Want to be able to see her messages and photos but dont want my info to appear on her phone. How do i stop the messages from appearing on her phone? (5's)

    Just brought my daughter an iphone and have her setup on my ID. Want to be able to see her messages and photos but dont want my info to appear on her phone. How do i stop the messages from appearing on her phone?

    If you have set up photo stream, this can't be done. As soon as you switch off photo stream on her device to keep your photos from coming to her device, you won't get any as well from her. Same for messages, you can't have both, sorry.
    Maybe look into the family sharing feature if you want the photos to be shared:
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing

    Your Device is in Recovery Mode and needs to be connected to the Computer you Usually Sync with.
    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...

  • Just added Ram (total of 10GB) and Motion ate it all up...........

    What can I change my HDV footage to for better performance in Motion? What kind of footage are you guys working with?
    I tried changing it to ProRes 422 and building a project but it still played very slow.
    I am very unhappy with it playing 2 fps for just adding total of 10GB of Ram.
    I just simply have to play the (HDV) footage with nothing on it and I watch the Ram go from 1GB to 9.50GB. These are only 2 minute projects.

    David,
    I did at one time convert the HDV footage to ProRes, and Final Cut wasn't able to play 4 streams of video in the Multi-cam editor.
    (I think my hard-drive was not able to play all that information at once) What do you think?
    You would need a RAID configuration to play that many full rez streams but that's why FCP has the ProRes Proxy workflow. You work at lower rez with lots of streams and then recapture (or reconform) at full rez.
