Mac Pro (2007) wont turn on

I bought a Mac Pro last May, and today our mains fuse went, and it will no longer turn on. There is no smell of burning, and it is pretty dust free. I changed the fuse in the plug to no avail.
Is there anything I can do? I don't have applecare.
What support can I get? It's under 12months old, so under limited warranty. I am no where near an apple store though, so can't just walk in.

You should have been running your system on a UPS for one.
When you need to reset the system, there is an SMC RESET button under drive #4 or zap pram/nvram or unplug from the wall for 30 seconds.
A Mac Pro should be on its own circuit with only little other equipment (no space heaters, window A/C, refrig etc).

Mac Pro 2007 No Power to Hard Drives

While changing hard drives in my Mac Pro 2007 (model 2,1) today, I apparently shorted something out and there is no longer power being provided to any of the hard drives or the super drive. On first boot attempt, the fans went into over drive and I smelled something burning, so I quickly turned it off and reinstalled the original drive.
I am able to boot up off a Yosemite installer USB flash drive and run Disk Utility - confirmed that none of the disks are visible. Everything else on the computer seems to be running fine.
Does this sound like a power supply issue or I have a fried something on the main logic board?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I have a mac pro 2007 model. It appears I have a corrupted sector on my the hadrive tha has my operating system. If I use the install disk that came with is (Tiger) can I still get my lion back.

I have mac pro 2007 model given to me, I updated it to lion about six months ago, and I do not have a time machine.
Lion stopped loading before I get to the login screen,
I tried all the tips, doing a option/shift/v. I noticed several fsk_dsk errors that it could not fix on my boot drive.
Restore would not work either. The only physical copy I have is the install disk that came with the mac. I think it is Tiger.
If I put this operating system on will I be abel to upgrade it to lion, and if so will I have to pay again?

The Lion Recovery Partition has its own index. Your Macintosh HD partition is the one with the troubles.
If Disk Utility cannot fix it, you may need to apply different Utilities, such as Disk Warrior.
Some readers suggest that the best disk repair is to erase the drive and restore it from your Backups.
This might be a good time to consider getting a new drive to have on hand. This would allow you flexibility in copying, fixing, and (if needed) replacing the drive with the problems.

16 mo young Mac Pro will not turn on. Dead. Why. No problems ever! Installed Yosemite and did not boot up after. Did that kill it? To young to die. What

16 mo young Mac Pro will not turn on. Dead. Why. No problems ever! Installed Yosemite and did not boot up after. Did that kill it? To young to die. What happened?what do I do now??????? Help!

Note that you don't have a Mac Pro as stated. Your profile says you have a MacBook Pro. Please clarify as they are entirely different computers. If nothing below works for you, then make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
     computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
     screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Well, there are tricks in the Internet to install OS X Mavericks in that computer based on the use of emulators (because you cannot run OS X Mavericks due to your Mac firmware). However, they are risky and illegal, and we cannot provide support for them.
Instead, you can only upgrade your Mac Pro to OS X Lion officially > http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion

I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help please...

I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help me please...

You can find the Apple Bluetooth card on eBay for as little ten dollars (says its for the 2008 model Mac Pro, not sure about the 2007).
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bluetooth-Board-iMac-and-Mac-Pro-922-8233-922-8233-/1208 49278570
Here is a link to a full explanation of the card and how to install it. Part numbers may differ a bit as that is an old article and newer models have come out.
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/Mac_Pro/Bluetooth_MacPro_install/Bluetooth_Ma cPro_install.html
Just make sure that the part will work in your model Mac Pro. To that end, you may be better off avoiding eBay and going to a parts reseller. There are even third party cards that use the internal Apple bluetooth slot.
http://fastmac.com/bluetooth.php
In theory, using a USB or PCI card will work at login so long as it is recognized by Apples drivers. You say you need to launch an application to use your current USB Bluetooth dongle? If it is not controlled by the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar then it must be using a third party driver of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't know off hand which USB and PCI cards are supported.

Mac Pro 2007 can't upgrade to Yosemite

Hi
I am unable to upgrade to Yosemite. Is it possible or do I have to give away my Mac Pro 2007 and get a new one?
Please advice.
Thanks!

Start here:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion
After download and before running do some housekeeping:
Make a Lion installer (this is for flash but I used a small partition on another disk drive to be faster)
http://liondiskmaker.com/
I recommend installing on another drive, formatted with Lion Installer.
Now would be an excellent time for an SSD. Other than using a 2.5" adapter don't feel there is anything special EXCEPT to install TRIM Enabler.

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E250B-AM/dp/B00OAJ412U/
The SSD was the biggest improvement in 8 yrs. The XP941 would be faster and leave you with 4 drive bays.

Is the only PCI device that boots all Mac Pro models, does not use a 'controller' only an adapter to use M.2 style in PCIe (and unique to Mac Pro that it will boot while PCs X99 still have new BIOS our 8+ year old EFI works, something that cannot be said for Sonnet Tempo Pro SSD card and others).
Just a hint and push into the world of SSD

USB drive with install image is showing in Startup Manager on a Mac Pro, but wont boot. Showing circle with cross strip, and shut down automatically. USB device are made and work on two different MacBook Pro, but used on Mac Pro. Any help?

OS X installers have always been fairly specific, hardware-wise. I haven't read anything reflecting that situation with the Recovery HD, so it may be that the Recovery HD created for the MacBook Pro does not have the necessary drivers for the Mac Pro. Obviously, nothing definitive here, but a possibility.

Belkin Bluetooth not working in Mac Pro 2007

Hi,
I've got a Mac pro 2007 and bought a Belkin Mini Bluetooth adapter via the Apple Store (http://store.apple.com/nl/product/TW622ZM/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY). I was hoping if I bought something from the Apple store It would work.
The mini adapter seems to work, Look at screenshot https://picasaweb.google.com/aseesink/Bluetooth#5598441276491332930 Apologize for the dutch screenprint, but the mark before "Detecteerbaar" can be translated by "detectable".
But if I look at the system preferences I see this: https://picasaweb.google.com/aseesink/Bluetooth#5598441278085536498 Translated it means Bluetooth is disabled. To use bluetooth you need to enable it. But both checks are grey and I cant change anything in this screen.
I did a check (without the belkin mini bluetooth adapter) on my Mac Book and it detects my Nokia telephone.
Using the Belkin mini bluetooth adapter in my Mac Pro it does not pickup any bluetooth signal.
I also tried to do a PRAM reset in my Mac Pro, but that doesn't change anything.
In the system overview (about this mac) https://picasaweb.google.com/aseesink/Bluetooth#5598442444721135026 it looks like the adapter is working. But from my experience it is not working.
Is there anyone else who got this adapter working? Would love to use my magic mouse with it.
Thank you in advance for helping.
Andre

Problem solved!
I just found an interesting article here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/13263724#13263724
The part with bluetooth explorer worked for me.
I can see all my bluetooth devices now including my magic mouse.

Hello, see if this helps...
The following table lists the new tones and their meaning:
Tone(s)    Description
1 tone, a 5-second pause, repeat    No RAM installed
3 successive tones, a 5-second pause, 3 successive tones    RAM does not pass data integrity check
1 long tone when holding down the power button    Firmware upgrade in process. See About firmware updates for Intel-based Macs for more details.
3 long tones, 3 short tones, 3 long tones    Firmware restoration from CD in process. See About the Firmware Restoration CD (Intel-based Macs) for more details.

Older meanings...
Can you count the beeps or flashes?
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

2008 Mac pro won't turn on at all

I have a 2008 MacBook pro and I turned it off and then later I turned it back on and it sounds like it is loading but the screen is still black and there is no start up noise

See the won't power on section here, but it's not looking very good
 Cheat sheet to help diagnose and fix your Mac
Perhaps it's time for this
 Data recovery efforts explained
if you don't have a recent backup, but the hard drive sounds like it's still working, it can be removed and used to transfer files to a new Mac with IDE/SATA to USB adpater cable

Mac Pro when I turn it on shows no video signal input

When I turn my Mac Pro on the screen is black and it shows " no video input" . how can I solve this problem?

Many of the graphics cards shipped in 2008 and older macs have gotten too hot or too dusty over the years and burned themselves out.
Consider upgrading to an Apple-firmware 5770 (about US$250) that works in every model Mac Pro running 10.6.5 or later.
Other trivia that may help:
The caps lock key is under software control. If it still operates as expected, the software is running, even with no picture.
Control-Eject on the keyboard brings up this dialog box in a fully operational Mac OS X, and not otherwise. The default to shutdown is taken with the return key:
