Mac Pro Can't write temporary files to 10.4 Server?

We run a file server on an old G4 tower to a network of about 8 Macs. We are having problems with our first Intel machine. We have a 3ghz Mac pro that appears to work fine except for one problem. The server doesn't allow the Mac pro to automatically write temporary files. This is a problem since we are a design firm and we use indesign for a majority of our projects. Without this temporary file users can access the same file at the same time. This is a major problem!
Sever is running the latest version of 10.4
Mac pro is running the latest version of 10.4 as well
I also ran a test where I logged in from the Mac pro to one of our G5s. Indesign functioned normal in that situation.
Anyone have any suggestions?

By looking at your post i have several questions to ask :
Where are the temporary files stored ?
Which data sharing scheme are you using for them ? AFP with POSIX or ACL behaviors, something Indesign uses ?
Which versions of indesign are you using ? Some differences exists in between PPC installs and Universal install and may play havoc with that.
There might as well be the question of ownership and rights that may differ as mentionned above in between your G5 workgroup and the MacPro.

Can't write large files to my WebDAV server

Hi, yesterday I set up a WebDAV directory on my mini using Apache 2.0.56 with digest authentication.
Everything works fine when I connect from home, however, when I tried to access it from work I got some very strange reactions.
Connection worked out-of-the-box, downloading was no problem, but uploading only worked for small files (< 200KB).
When I tried to upload a 1MB file, it hung for quite a while, and then gave me an error code -50. When I tried again with a different file, I got an error code -43. I then tried uploading a Pages document (a typical "package") and it uploaded most of the package's contents, but returned a -43 also when transferring the images in the document.
I found http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107047 but it didn't help because the suggested fix was already configured.
Has anyone else had problems like these? Could it be a firewall, or proxy problem? If so, how might I be able to work around it?
Thanks in advance,
Proto

Just chatted with a Cisco rep who offered a solution (which did not work):
On the "Setup -> Basic Setup" tab,
under "Internet Setup -> Optional Settings(required by some Internet Service Providers)" in the left column,
change "MTU" from "Auto" to "Manual", and then
change "Size" from 1500 to 1365.
Click "Save Settings" on the bottom.

How do i share a file so another user of my mac pro can access

Hi
I have a file on my mac pro that I want others to use for presentations without them seeing all my private info. I have set up a new user but how do I share the file the other user on my mac pro can see it?

Place the files you want to transfer on the Desktop
Click on the Finder or desktop to swtich to Finder, then Go > Computer, then double click on the boot drive, then on the Users folder.
Open the target User folder and inside is a Public folder > Drop Box, just drag and drop in there and the permissions change so that user can use the file.

Using the New Mac Pro (can) - AE will not let me use Race Traced 3-D

Using the New Mac Pro (can) - AE will not let me use Race Traced 3-D
Hi, I'm using the new Mac Pro
2.7 GHz 12-core Intel Xeon E5
64 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB
OSX 10.9.2
I'm using After Effects 12.2.1.5
When I attempt to invoke the race trace 3D renderer in a comp, I get this error
"After Effects Error: Ray-traced 3D: Out of paged mapped memory for ray tracer. Your project may exceed GPU limits. Try closing other applications. Try updating the CUDA driver. (5070::2)"
My preferences are set to use the CPU for Raytraced 3D since I do not have an Nvidia card.
So, obviously there is an issue here in that it thinks I have an Nvidia card.
I know (or assume I know) the cause for this is that when I set up this machine, I used Apple's migration assistant to move most of my data over from the previous gen Mac Pro which DID have a CUDA card.
So my question is, what files can I delete/reset to cause After Effects to no longer look for CUDA files that do not exist on this machine?
I do not have the CUDA control panel in System Prefs, so THAT did not carry over.
Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

> I know (or assume I know) the cause for this is that when I set up this machine, I used Apple's migration assistant to move most of my data over from the previous gen Mac Pro which DID have a CUDA card.
Ugh. That causes so many problems.
The first thing to try is deleting the CUDA frameworks from your Mac: Look in /Library/Frameworks for the CUDA.Framework and get rid of it.

Mac Pro can access other Macs but those same Macs cannot access the Mac Pro

Hello.
I have a highly annoying problem that goes as follows:
My (home) network consists of:
- 1 Mac Pro (e2008 - 10.5.6)
- 1 iMac (2008 - 10.5.6)
- 1 MacMini (2004 - 10.4.??)
- 1 MacBook Air (2008 - 10.5.6)
The internet connection is alive and well with no drops not that it truely matters here.
The setup is as follows:
- Linksys AM300 in half bridge mode connects to the
- Apple Airport Extreme Base station from which 1 cat6 cable runs to the
- Mac Pro
The other Macs connected to the Airport Extreme wirelessly.
The Mac Pro has its network settings setup correctly (in fact it used to work fine but then just stopped working) and I have also disabled all network settings, rebooted and reapplied the settings to no effect.
To clarify:
I (Mac Pro) can connect to all Macs in the network but all those macs can see me but not connect to me. Connecting via the Finder simply says "Connection Failed" and if I open the "Connect to server.." and enter the IP address of the Mac Pro it results in an error/failed connection also.
Any ideas to fix this would be highly appreciated.
PS: As of now, 19/03/2009, I have all software updates installed on all macs in the network.

Hi, I'm running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) on mac pro. can i update to Os X Mavericks? thanks

We don't know a thing about your hardware, so we really cannot answer. See below.
Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?

Mac Pro can't recognize 1GB Pen Drives... How to fix it?

Recently I keeps encountered the same annoying problem...
My Mac Pro can't recognize the USB pen drives when I or my co-worker plug into Mac Pro's USB port.
For a few times, if we are lucky, Mac Pro shows the pen drive on the desk top, but sometimes it can't read or write the data from/to the pen drive, many times, it simply freeze over.
Does anyone knows how to fix such problem? It seems to me that the new Mac Pro still has some bugs needs to be sort out...
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Malcolm:
Thanks for the post.
No, my new Mac Pro system does not have USB port on the Keyboard, cause I've opted for Apple's wireless blue tooth mouse and keyboard.
I do have 2 USB ports on the Apple's 23" LCD display, and Two USB ports on front side and two available USB ports on the back of the Mac itself.
During the Thanksgiving long weekend, I think I might accidentally singled out the cause of my problem.
I have my HP printer and one multi-card reader constantly pluged into the two USB ports at the back of my Mac, and always tried to use the front side USB ports for the 1GB USB Pen Drives, and that's where the problem lays!
When I unplug the Multi Card Reader from the back USB port, and suddenly all USB ports on my Mac works just fine with the Pen Drives!!!
So, for now, I plug the Multi Card Reader in one the the front USB port, and the rest of the USB ports on the Mac work with Pen Drives flawlessly, it seems that I sloved my problem for the time being...
As for those two USB ports on the back of my 23" Apple Display, They can not take my USB Pen Drives, as you've mentioned that it does not have enough power for the USB Pen Drives.

Can't write cache file for while creating domain in soa 11.1.1.5 on HP-UX

Hi,
Installing SOA 11.1.1.5 on HP-UX and during domain creation/configuration I am getting the below errors
**sys-package-mgr: can't write cache file for**
and have lots of cache file errors for different packages
Any idea what might be wrong and whats the cause of these errors and is it safe to ignore these errors if not what is the work arround. As I already looked at the below post but I don't find */var/tmp/wlstTemp* on my machine as suggested in the post below.

My mac Pro can't boot OS X, if it connected with iPod video

Hi All~ I have received the new Mac Pro, but I don't know why..... if
my iPod video(60G) had connected with USB ports of Mac Pro, then I can't
boot my OS system.... that seems the Mac Pro can't reach my hard
disk, because the apple log doesn't appear (nothing on the screen)
and everything is blocked, however when I put out the iPod, the Mac
would go into the system smoothly, I don't know why. there is no
problem with my powerbook or iMac G4 as the same situation to boot
the OS system. Is a new rule to start the system with Intel CPU?
Can anyone tell me what happen with my Mac Pro, does it have something wrong? Thanx
Reeeeegards,

Hi everybody!
I´ve a similar problem. However, in my case it´s not when I boot Mac OS X but when I boot into bootcamp with Windows XP. It takes a loooooooong time for the Mac to start the booting when my 80gig ipod is connected to the USB-port . Maybe you also have just to wait longer?
If I disconnect the ipod during this waiting period from the USB-port, the Mac starts booting immediatelly! Fortunatelly I´ve no problem when directly booting into Mac OS X.
Direct connection or connection via self-powered USB-hub, disk-mode or no disk-mode, ipod formated in Mac or Windows format, I tried everything, but it all made no difference. Any advice to solve the problem would be very wellcome.
By the way, I´ve another ipod connected via firewire, this is not causing any boot-trouble.

SOA 11.1.1.5 install got can't write cache file

Hi,
I installed 2 node cluster of SOA 11.1.1.5 on linux and during domain configuration I got errors i.e.
**sys-package-mgr: can't write cache file for**
Installation was done and all the servers start/stop fine am able to deploy the processes, am able to access all the urls fine everything coming up fine BAM, SOA, OSB etc . Just wondering if the error above have any effect on the installation or any piece that might not work. As I have already did the installation and ignored those errors above so just wanted to see if anything I need to look for.
Thanks

Hi,
It's a cluster install and took sometime to do the full install so it will be a pain to re-install everything over. Currently have tested the processes and seems to be working fine.
Also I don't find
/var/tmp/wlstTemp
I do see wlstTemp appended with linux users who did Oracle SOA install.
Also in-future when creating a new environment besides the above chmod 777 on /var/tmp/wlstTemp is there any parameter we can supply when running config.sh. I read some where that in-order to get by these errors at the time of domain creation we can also pass some parameter.
Thanks

I have a new mac pro can, and was checking settings. I gave a user 'no access' who I didn't recognize, and loast all access to my computer.... Won't even reboot! Can anyone suggest anything?

I have a new mac pro 'can', and was checking settings. I gave a user who I didn't recognize 'no access', and lost all access to my computer immediately. Tried to change access back, but I was totally locked out (even as the admin). It won't even reboot! I thought it might have been back when I gave Adobe access (when they had their Cloud fiasco and my machine kept crashing with Premiere). Can anyone suggest anything?

Mac Pro can't running two fire wire hard disks at the same time .

Mac Pro can’t running any two fire wire hard disks at the same time . which two hard disks have extra power from power socket . If i just insert one of them .No problem . If connect two Hds at the same time. Leopard cant find it and the Hds seem no problem. the machine must be restarted and then use one . No problem . I have formated the HD many times .even if which format is Fat 32 or Mac issue persists .Boot from installation CD used the disk utility . Issue stills . If i used one fire wire HD that get power from power socket and used one fire wire device . Leopard was no problem during this time . Whether is this design problem or my machine hardware problem?My Mac has been changed the logic board by Apple service . Do you have similar case in here????

I connect both hard disks that get power from power supply normally. Also have ever changed the format as GUID. Which always use the power cord . I felt confusion why the issue just happened connect both hard disks with extra power at the same time. If i used one hard disk connect to firewire port . Another firewire port connect other firewire device . No problem at all.

but my problem is that i want to use hindi language
so how can i write propery file which support hindi font.
Manish

Hi Manish,
We also had same requirement where we need to show indian local language(Hindi ,Bengali and many more ).
We had implemented following approach and perhaps it will helpful for you.
1-First we changed the encoding value in jdeveloper.
go to jdeveloper --> tools --->preference-->encoding , select to UTF8
2-We used to get the properties and it's translated value from business and then we were manually put these pair into related resource bundle.
And using this we were able to implemented multilanguage support.
Thanks
