mac pro 5,1 / 10.8.2 / 10.0.7 - while working in fcx and the program and the system hangs (freezing). Only moves the mouse pointer. In addition to disconnecting from the mains, nothing helps! what to do?

Yes, it would if you ran it on the new MBP which is the reason I am saying install rather then clone.
If you clone then you are only getting the same code as the old MBP which probably will not have the correct drivers.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Do you keep your data backed up?
    If not, you should always do so*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    You never know when a hard drive or a directory might go bad.  Having a bootable clone is a must.
    That link also shows you some tools you can use to recover data.
    If you aren't backed up, try buying those tools first, before attempting to repair the directory.
    Directory issues can be fixed with these tools*:

    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.

  • When switching on my Mac Pro on bootup it keep shutting down then eventually it works fine

    When switching on my Mac Pro on bootup it keep shutting down then eventually it works fine

    I also have the exact same problem with my early 2008 Mac Pro.  Last spring, the video card that came with the unit burned out.  I brought it in to the Apple Store in my area, but they were unable to really help me out.  I ended up replacing the card, but about two or three weeks ago I started having the same exact issue that you do - the Mac would suddenly die occasionally, and then would take quite a few tries to come back up.  It seems that resetting the PRAM helps temporarily with me.  It has been up since about 3 PM so far, and it is behaving.
    My main issue is that replacement parts are expensive for this machine.  If I were to replace the power supply and the logic board, Apple would charge me about a thousand bucks!  That's simply too much money to drop on a 4 year old computer.
    My solution is that I will run it for a while longer, and replace it with the Mac Mini with the ATI GPU.  The Mini is about 85% as powerful according to Geekbench, and if it dies I will not be out more than a few hundred bucks.
    I will be migrating all my OpenCL code to FreeBSD as well, because replacing a power supply or motherboard in a generic DIY PC is only a hundred or two dollars at the most.

  • HT201343 I have a late 2008 Mac Pro Quad Core 2x2.8 Intel Xeon with Lion 10.7.5- do I need Maverick and will this hardware support the Airplay Mirroring?

    I have a late 2008 Mac Pro Quad Core 2x2.8 Intel Xeon with Lion 10.7.5… do I need Maverick and will this hardware support the Airplay Mirroring?

    It doesn't mention anything about a Mac Pro. So no.

    If your computer did support it, you would still need 10.8 or 10.9 for Airplay to work.

    I have been unable to download adobe acrobat pro, which I purchased on a month to month basis almost exactly 1 year ago, since I purchased it. I just received a renewal email and it had a link to download the program and for the first time when I clicked on the link it actually sent me to a page that had the icon to download now. I clicked on that, but when I went to open the file and start downloading after about 3 minutes into downloading it says an error had occurred. Can anyone help me?

    I am a little worried. If you are an existing subscriber why would Adobe need you to download... I wonder if the message is a fake.
    I'm not clear, if you've had it for a year, whether you need to download, or you are just following the email?
    This page with the icon to download now. Was it a page on adobe.com ?

    After I purchased the creative cloud, I receive an error message when trying to use premier pro cc 2014.  It states "Adobe Premiere Pro 2014.2 has stopped working.  A problem has caused it to stop working.  Windows will close the program and notify you of a solution."  When I used the trial I never received this message.  Now after purchasing it I receive this error each time I open PP and am unable to use. it.  Any ideas or support to fix this issue?

    What does the detailed crash report say?
    And have you updated your video card drivers from the GPU maker's website? (most crashes on launch are due to bugs in out of date video card drivers)

    You need to adjust your security stuff/ permissions and possibly use compatibility modes. It means that your licensing service is being blocked/ shut down.

  • HT1444 I have recently acquired an update for my mac OX the program being the snow leopard, i have been forever inserting the disk only to have it ejected by my mac, hence, i am unable to update my system with snow leopard

    I have recently acquired an update for my mac OX the program being the snow leopard, i have been forever inserting the disk only to have it ejected by my mac, hence, i am unable to update my system with snow leopard, what can i do, as i have just paid out money for something which

    Worked like a charm and resolved my problem totally. The only issue I had is that, unlike the Computer (Mac OS). the iPad doesn't give constant visibility to what it is doing (feedback), so I wasn't initially sure it had done anything.
    When I opened my emailed message with .vcf file attached, and tapped the .vcf attachment icon, I saw activity on the icon for just a few seconds, then it reverted to the original with nothing apparently happening. After about 30 seconds, the secondary menut popped up indicating the transfer of 1200 addresses would be completed, if I approved the action. Another 10 to 15 seconds then transpired before the completed Contact list appeared on the ipad. So you must be patient, if you have a large Addressbook. That's reasonable,but unexpected lack of feedback left me wondering, like so many other things on the iPad.
    THank you for the assist. Apparently Apples Mac Genius people did not know this procedure, and I will pass it on to my local Apple Store Instructor.

  • Mac os x 10.4 to 10.6, will I lose the programs on the computer?

    If I have mac os x 10.4 and I switch to 10.6 will I lose the programs on the computer? If so how can I save them?

    An "Archive and Install," one of the OSX install options, preserves apps and your settings. However, Adobe uses some pretty tough copy protection schemes, so I can't say DC3 will be OK in confidence. Best to use the Adobe Knowledge Base for older versions of their products.
    Some disk sets cannot upgrade 10.4 to 10.6 without having 10.5 installed. I believe the version of 10.5 that came in the box set with iLife would work.
