  • Mac Pro Early 2008 crash after gear on boot

    Hi. I have a Mac Pro (Early 2008), with Mavericks installed. A couple of days ago, it crashed hard (in Portal, as it happens) and then wouldn't boot. When it was crashing it showed full green in various (dark? or random?) areas of the screen, and then random vertical lines of coloured noise. The cursor went jerky, and then stopped moving at all. Having decided this was a more serious problem than a simple steam error, I forced the machine to shut down with the case button, and then turned it back on again, but it wouldn't come up, and hasn't (with exceptions, see below) since.
    The behaviour is:
    Boot chime, Apple, Apple-with-spinning-gear, a sensible (it seems) amount of spinning gear, then the gear stops and I get some flashing on my screen (like, a complete red screen, or orange screen – colours vary – displayed for less than one refresh, so I see a brief flash of colour with tearing). Occasionally instead of flashing I get an unexpected reboot: once when this happened I also got the kernel's (multiple language) "Your computer restarted because of a problem" screen.
    Safe Mode has the same problem (I get a progress bar, when the progress bar completes everything stops and "screen flashing" happens).
    EFI boot volume selector works fine, but when I continue to boot, either from my main partition or the Recovery partition, I get the same problem.
    Verbose mode works until the point where the graphical user interface should come back, which gives me a white screen and nothing (except screen flashing). I do get a certain amount of "kSMCBadArgumentError" before that point, but see below.
    Single User Mode works as it should, fsck finds no errors, all my data appears to be on my hard drive as expected, but on typing "exit" to continue boot I end up in the same position as Verbose Mode. Trying kextload to load all my extensions gives the kSMCBadArgumentError lines, but no other problems (until I try to boot). I have already tried using SUM to remove all the launch agents/daemons/extensions from /Library/ (leaving only the ones in /System/Library/). This worked (I modified the disk as I intended) but didn't help me boot.
    I did get the recovery partition to boot once (seemingly randomly), Disk Utility found no errors. The full Apple Hardware Test doesn't seem to be an option from the recovery partition? (I've moved house a few times in the last 6 years, and I don't know where my physical AHT disk is any more. I do have a friend who would probably be able to burn one if Apple provides the disk image as a download.) I have had a full successful boot once too (maybe on the restart after using the recovery partition?) which let me use my administrator user perfectly (I used it for about 5 minutes?), but then after logging out and while trying to log in as my "standard" user I got full green noise as before, and the machine locked up again.
    I've rotated my RAM (I have 2x1GB sticks and 2x2GB, as well as my usual 6GB config I've tried each of the pairs in "two-stick" configuration). No difference, except on one boot I got error lights (full on) on one riser, I assume that was because I hadn't seated it properly during rotation, because I took it out and put it back in again and I've not had the lights before or since.
    I've also tried swapping in an older system drive, but that made no difference. (The old drive may have been a little flaky itself, but single-user mode booting reliably suggests, at least to me, that my normal drives aren't the problem?)
    Without wishing to privilege a hypothesis, could it be the graphics card? I have the Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT, I believe (it looks exactly like the pictures of that card online, anyway) – installed by Apple at build time. I tried taking it out and putting it back in again, in case it had become poorly seated, but it seemed firmly in place – for example, the PCIe retainer clip was fully engaged before I removed the card – and reseating it didn't make any difference. I don't have a second card to test with, unfortunately. I wouldn't mind getting a new card to keep the machine running, of course, but I'd like to make sure that it's going to solve my problem before buying it!
    Thanks for any help you can give!
    Edited to correct OS field, which didn't work. I really do mean Mavericks.

    RE: Mac Pro Replacement Graphics cards
    1) Apple brand cards,
    2) "sold in the Apple store" cards, and
    3) "Mac Edition" cards ...
    ... show all the screens, including Boot up screens, Safe Mode, Installer, Recovery, debug screens, and Alt/Option boot screens. At this writing, these choices include:
    1) Apple brand cards:
    • Apple-firmware 5770, about US$250** works near full speed in every model Mac Pro, Drivers in 10.6.5
    • Apple-firmware 5870, about US$450
    2) "sold in the Apple store" cards
    • NVIDIA Quadro 4000, about US$1200
    • NVIDIA Quadro 5000, about US$2500
    3) "Mac Edition" cards -- REQUIRE 10.8.3 or later:
    • SAPPHIRE HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 MAC Edition, about US$480** Vendor recommends Mac Pro 4,1
    • EVGA GTX 680 Mac Edition, about US$600
    The cards above require no more than the provided two 6-pin aux power connectors provided in the Mac Pro through 2012 model. Aux cables may not be provided for third-party cards, but are readily available.
    If you are Meet ALL of these:
    • running 10.8.3 or later AND
    • don't care about "no boot screens" etc AND
    • can re-wire or otherwise "work out" the power cabling, THEN:
    You can use many more cards, even most "PC-only cards"

  • Mac Pro Early 2008 Crash on Boot Up

    I have a Mac Pro early 2008 running OSX 10.8.5, and yesterday morning for seemingly no reason I had a screen corruption and freeze up, a kernel panic and then it rebooted itself. I have tried all of the memory( no flashing LED over power switch), cleared and reset all of the PRAM via keyboard and motherboard etc etc and everytime I reboot it crashes at the same point with a screen corruption and reboot. When I tried to boot in safe mode it the bar got 50% of the way across and it rebooted. I booted in verbose mode and single user mode and on both the last entry related to 'Ambrosiaaudiosupport' (as best I can remember) before it rebooted itself again. I sent the Kernel Panic to Apple but as I cannot get back into the OS I cannot obtain another.
    Is there a solution to this please, and if so what do I need to do to rectify it
    Many thanks in advance
    Alan

    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions. Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is on a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways: ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid. Select the most recent panic log under the heading System Diagnostic Reports on the left. If you don't see that heading, select   View ▹ Show Log List   from the menu bar. Post the entire contents of the panic report — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post shutdownStall, spin, or hang reports.

  • Mac Pro (Early 2008) periodically crashes in unusual way, requires reinstall

    Mac Pro (Early 2008), 2 x Intel Quad-core Xeon 3.2 GHz (8 cores), 14 GB RAM, 3 TB hard drive, NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 and/or ATI Radeon HD 4870), OS X Lion 10.7.4
    OK, I've got a weird one here.  Every few days, my machine crashes in an unusual manner.  Examples:
    * the first time this happened, any attempt to play a video file (either from within iTunes or externally using Quicktime) would result in a blank, black video window, but I could still hear the sound from the video.  If I moved my mouse within the black window I'd get playback controls and when pressed, I could hear the audio rewind/fast forward/etc. (but of course the video window would remain black)  Also, any attempt to use screen sharing would result in a completely white window where the remote screen should be.
    * another time this happened, I would constantly get the error message that VTDecoderXPCService quit unexpectedly, even if I wasn't playing a video.  Trying the suggested fixes from https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3193904?start=15&tstart=0 did not fix the issue.
    * another time this happened, the machine appeared to work fine, except any attempt to access System Preferences resulted in the spinning beach ball of death and would completely lock up the machine.
    In any case, rebooting the machine does not result in the problem being fixed -- in fact, it gets worse.  After I reboot, I am unable to log in to my machine at all. Either the desktop window flashes briefly but then it goes back to the login screen, or the login screen never appears.  I have tried both the "guest" account as well as a standard "test" user I set up when I first installed OS X (i.e. a "clean" user), and none of those help.
    What *does* help, however, is completely reinstalling OS X Lion (including running the combo updater to get back to 10.7.4).  Once I do this, the machine becomes usable again, and I can use it error-free for a few more days - after which it fails again in some strange manner.
    At first I thought my hard drive might be failing; however replacing the hard drive did not help.  I then thought that I might have a glitchy graphics card (the black video windows and the VTDecoderXPCService crashing suggested this to me).  However replacing the video card didn't help either.  (I tried another GeForce GT 120 as well as an ATI Radeon HD 4870, both of which were known to be good in other machines).  I have also tried countless times fixing permissions, clearing cache files, etc. and none of that helps.  The only thing that brings this machine back from the dead is, like I said before, reinstalling OS X - but only for a few days.
    I didn't see anything out of the ordinary when checking the system log files.
    In case there was some sort of hardware problem going on, I tried running Apple Hardware Test overnight in loop mode.  The hardware passed all checks.  I also tried running Memtest86+ overnight, again with no failures or errors.
    The machine doesn't seem to me to run particularly hot - typically temps hover in the 40-45 C range, and can jump to 55-60 when doing heavy activity (mostly video encoding).  Voltage levels look good as well.  (I'm using iStat Menus for both the temperature and voltage readings)
    I'm about at my wit's end here.  Unfortunately the machine is out of warranty (AppleCare too) and I don't really have the money to take this into a shop and get it diagnosed.  So does anyone have any ideas?

  • Mac Pro Early 2008 + boot camp!!! pliz help from Pros!

    Hi guys,
    I'm currently using a Mac pro Early 2008 Quad 2.8 with 4 Gb of RAM. I also have 4 HDDs ( 2 of them are 1Tb( Western Digital Black and Green series), 1 is 320Gb-original comes with MP and one 250 Gb Western Digital caviar). All of my HDDs are internal. Recently, my superdrive failed on me. Therefore, i have to replace it using a Samsung OEM DVD optical drive ( TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S203D ) which was connected via the extra SATA port on my MP logic board. The optical drive was recognized fine by my MP.
    Recently, as I used to work on both platforms ( Mac and PC) for audio mastering, I've decided to install windows 7 using bootcamp so that I can use Wavelab on my Mac for audio mastering. I had my 250Gbs SATA on HDD bay 4 formatted as a single volume for Bootcamp using Bootcamp Assistant. The process went fine until the system restarts for Windows installation. As I used Bootcamp before, i understood that freaking apple EFI wont read SATA (or external) optical drive to install Windows via Bootcamp, therefore I used RefiT as bootloader ( this method always worked for me before on other macs). I also have windows 7 ultimate ligit DVD. However, I experienced this :
    - when I restarted my MP without having refit installed , there was always a flashing Apple + a prohibition mark and Windows installation didnt start. I've tried to reboot, hold down OPTION key so that the Windows installation DVD is read by optical drive and then choose it, same thing happened.
    - After trying Bootcamp traditional way of installation without success, I install RefiT into my OSX drive ( 320 GBs), have MP restarted twice, then i got Refit boot menu, chose the windows installtion DVD..... now REFIT shows me that having some problem with Legacy boot and can't start the DVD.
    Anyone is having the same problem like me with the flashing Apple+ prohibition mark ? Please HELP me!!!! I've used Bootcamp and REFIT for ages on Mac and never had this happened. Bleh!
    I'm using Mac OSX 10.6.3. And below is my system profile:
    Model Name: Mac Pro
    Model Identifier: MacPro3,1
    Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
    Boot ROM Version: MP31.006C.B05

    hi all,
    Finally I had my Mac pro Early 2008 Quad installed Windows XP SP3 on 2nd internal HDD.
    Here's the update for anyone that is having the same problem as I had.
    1st : you need to prepare some elements for a smooth installation
    - Winclone for mac osx
    - Windows XP image that was made from Winclone ( I had to download Winclone 1st, then ran to a friend of mine who had Windows already installed on his Mac using bootcamp and made an image of a version of Windows ( XP/vista/7) on his HDD via Winclone. The image will have file extension like this : xxxx.winclone ( xxxx is the name you choose)
    - bootcamp 3.0 drivers for windows, just in case.
    2nd : install Winclone on your Mac osx drive.
    3rd: open bootcamp Assistant. prepare your drive for a Windows installation then quit it. However, somehow in my Mac Pro, the partition that BCA created wasn't mounted on my Finder, therefore I opened disk Utility and then reformat my BOOTCAMP drive to FAT32 or NTFS ( if you install NTFS-3G, disk utility will allow you).
    4th: Open winclone. Now choose Restore. Then choose your Windows image that you made earlier and choose the Partition that you formatted for Windows and wait. It wont take long for the software to copy the image to your partition.
    5th: now its time to restart your computer. hold down Option key so that you can choose the Windows Partition to boot.
    6th: Windows will boot up and starting to scan for hardware changes again ( as the computer hardware ID and specs changed).
    7th: if needed, use bootcamp 3.0 to install drivers for your Mac in windows.
    8th: register your copy of Windows
    Hope this help.by the way, you also want to force your Mac Pro to recognize all of your SATA HDDs and optical drive by force it to load up drivers in AHCI mode. There are lots of threads over Internet about how to do it. Perhaps InsanelyMac forum ( that's where i find it).
    And finally good luck with guys who are having the same problems like me. It took me 3 weeks to find out how to do it.
    Sorry admin for any violations ( I only want to help people cos I know its hard with guys who dont know ).
    CHEERS!

  • Mac Pro (early 2008) keeps crashing

    I have a Mac Pro (early 2008) that keeps crashing, becoming ever more frequent. It usually happens upon starting up the computer, and once it's all loaded, it crashes, as in all shuts down, and then immediateky restarts itself. This can go on repetitively 10 times or more. Usually, once it's stabilized and remains open, perhaps after 30min-1 hour, it will remain ok for the rest of the day. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this problem. Do I need to update the memory/the graphics card/buy new computer?! Any advice would be very much appreciated. Here are the specs:
    Processor  2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    Memory  6 GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM  - 2GB 2GB 1GB 1GB (4 slots free)

    AHT by now is only on the OEM DVD and is not fool-proof or definitive or much else. Just a way to rule out some obvious failures.
    a new set of 2 x 2GB FBDIMM $25 might be worth for testing.
    replacing the ATI 2600XT or get Apple to, they still will it seems like.
    Was it a clean install of Mavericks? did you import  your old apps and profile data? might be worth a look at redoing.
    Some airport and wifi/BT cards can be suspect.
    Whatever is happening, all those crashes are going to mangle the directory of the boot drive even more. Reason in spades to have a clean system, image it for restore, and so you have a system just for testing.
    3.1's in their 4 yrs have had more issues like this than any other model.

  • Disappearing HDD content / Mac Pro early 2008

    Hi,
    I have a Mac Pro early 2008.
    I keep getting a weird fault. All of my HDDs (exept system drive) and external usb devices like CF cards (via reader) are not showing any content. But only through applications. Example: When I try to open a project in photoshop, in this little finder window, I don't see any content on my HDDs. The same in After Effects, Final Cut etc. The weirdest thing is that trough a normal Finder window everything seems to be ok, but when I try to open PSD from Finder, photoshop crashes. It's all very confusing and making me angry
    When I restart Mac, everything comes back to normal.
    Irecently reinstalled My Mac on an SSD (the only drive that's not disappearing ) - maybe that's the problem. I don't know. Please help if you have any ideas why is this happening.
    Regards,
    Maciek
    btw. "About this Mac" doesn't work either...

    Hi,
    Thank's for your help. I have some more anomalies to report
    After many restarts I can say that there may be an external device problem. The disappearing issue appears only when an external device (hard drive, card reader) is connected: via USB or Firewire. Before that happens everything is ok. When I connect any hard drive (doesn't matter if 3.5", 2.5" powered by USB or power supply) after a few minutes the problem appears...
    Maybe you will be able to help me to identify this problem.
    Thanks again for your help.

    Hello (hopefully someone can shed some light on my issue)
    I own as above a MAC PRO (Early 2008) this has a RAID card installed along with two 15k.7 cheetah hdd (320gb) and a spare drive, (which i made a regular drive)
    a while ago i had to replace the RAID card battery, so i did this, over a year later the same thing happened again, but as previous just left it and the system seemed fine for ages, until last night i was working in PHOTOSHOP and everything just froze and the screen kind of appeared GREEN, could not do a single thing. So restarted the mac, this time grey screen for ages and a message appeared, (macs version of blue screen) (see attached).
    I restarted the machine and this time a flashing question mark folder!
    could not do a thing.
    so i found my copy of snow leopard and got the computer to run this and at least launch the DISK UTILITY and (Interestingly in the drop down menu RAID UTILITY was also in the menu) but it did not matter which utility i used the (RAID or DISK) neither could see any of drives, just the dvd drive.
    so looked around on you tube and various forums and discovered if i take out the RAID CARD and re-plug the main lead from the RAID card back in to the LOGIC BOARD I would be reverting the MAC to a normal regular non-RAID computer.
    After performing this HARDWARE task and inserting all three HDD, and running the DISK utility from the drop down menu via the SNOW LEOPARD disc.
    (interestingly since the RAID card had been removed the RAID UTILITY  from the drop down menu no longer appeared). running disk utility I can now only see the regular (spare) hdd and DVD Drive, but the two RAID HDD , again, still do not show up DISK UTILITY?
    O.K. so i could chuck out the RAID card (AND RAID HDD) and just go with a regular set-up, and run a back restore from Time Machine on a NEW hdd purchased.
    but what is wrong with the RAID, is the card at fault or are both HDD used for the RAID knackered? can i perform any tests, to see whats what?
    thanks for your help in advanced.

    hello people, the issue was in fact the GRAPHICS card nothing to do with the HDD or RAID system ( although this did cause issues with the RAID system it basically lost its way) below is my replay to another similar  problem some one else had!
    working in photoshop and then everything stopped working and the lot froze! only option was to force shutdown (via button).
    and try to restart, hoping all was fine, this was not the case :-(
    I had the added issue of the RAID card system, that i have, this was confused to say the lease and would not behave or work, causing the start up to hang.
    so i thought the HDD must be bust and the root cause. ( but soon learnt it was not the cause )
    ...bought a new HDD removed the RAID card and replugged the cable from RAID card into LOGIC board, ( making the computer act like any normal non-RAID system). I managed to install the OSX, using the snow leopard disk way. once the mac was running, i started to notice the screen would flicker and started to see 'artefacts'. so i started to reveal my symptoms to the web and forums and soon discovered that my graphics card could be the issue all along?.
    (nvidia geforce 8800gt 2x dvi).
    I read up on that a fix, could be either A. reply the thermal paste, as the card could be over heating or B. stick the card in the oven trick.
    Tried option A. first and nothing still issues, so last night took the plunge carried out option B. and ta da it worked! i even managed to run
    from my new HDD my lasted install OS X, absolutely fine. I then thought, maybe i could repair my RAID so replugged all the HARDWARD back in and
    carried out a disk repair and disk permissions on drives( took a small amount of time), via the SNOW LEOPARD disc - (Disk utilities) and this worked and now have my system working as it was just over 6 days ago.
    what was the cost to get this?  bought a new hdd so 40.00gbp and thermal paste and cleaner kit ( your still need to do this ) search video card trick on you tube.
    and renew thermal paste, approx 15.00gbp, technically i don't need the new HDD, but it was all part of the trial and error way i went. ( i do have extra storage as a result!)"

  • Black Screen for Install of Windows 7 on Mac Pro Early 2008

    I have a mac pro early 2008 with lion 10.7.4 and boot camp 4.0.3 I think... anyways the problem I have is when I am in boot camp, and configure the HDD partition, then the machine reboots... when it reboots and starts up boot from the install DVD (legit retail copy) I just get a black screen on both monitors. No curser, nothing just a black screen, same as I get when the machine is off! the little white LED lights are on and nothing...
    I can hear the DVD spinning up and down a few times then that just stops too...
    I have tried resetting the PRAM, pulling the power and watch battery inside for a few minutes, I tried the "fix" that is online for the imac problem with the answerfile and got no different resutls with anything, still the same probelm.
    I have the OEM ATI Radeon video card 512MB.
    * as a side note, I was never able to download the windows support drivers prior to trying the install... I tried and tried for the last two days so this time I "unchekced" that box and just went for the install...
    Any help will be greatly appriciated, thank you :-)

    I get that dreaded black screen following partioning of my drive on the Windows 7 install on Mavericks on a Macbook Pro late-2008 (MBP5,1) but I'm at a loss to work out where the solution lies in the thread! ;-(
    To date I've spent about 5 days going back and forth trying all sorts of combinations, including the obvious:
    - removing bootcamp 5 and reverting to 4
    - installing the imac drivers
    A HUGE thanks if you can offer any help as I'm at the end of my tether...!

  • Mac Pro (early 2008) keyboard stops working

    My Mac Pro (early 2008) has the Apple USB extended keyboard go no ops after the computer has been on for a while. This has been happening for quite a while and began shortly after I installed 10.6. It seemed to disappear for a while after 10.6.6 showed up but has returned since 10.6.8 has arrived. It seems to happen only when the computer goes to sleep but it does not happen every time.  But it does happen most times. It appears that all USB ports on the back of my Apple monitor become unusable when this happens.
    Anyone have any ideas? This has the feel of the sleep issue this model had with an early OS a few years ago.

    Scott..
    Try a Safe Mode boot...
    Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
    A Safe Mode boot takes a longer than a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.
    Then try the keyboard.
    A Safe Mode deletes some system caches that may help, especially after an update.

  • Mac Pro Early 2008 will not boot off Win7 Install DVD

    Hello,
    I am hoping someone out there will have encountered something similar and have some suggestions or ideas, because at this point I can't think of anything else to try.
    I have a 2.8 Ghz 8-core Mac Pro (Early 2008) with an Nvidia 8800GT Graphics card. I am running OS 10.6.2, fully patched and updated.
    I am attempting to install Windows 7 Ultimate via Boot Camp, and am encountering a rather odd problem.
    Once I have launched Boot Camp Assistant it allows me to partition the drive and does so correctly, but when it attempts to reboot off the Windows 7 installation DVD, I encounter a blank grey-white screen similar to that which you normally get on startup but without the Apple logo. This continues for some time (it seems to vary), and then the screen goes dark and the monitor says it is receiving no signal. The fans on the Mac Pro go for a while, then it goes to sleep. I've tried leaving it for a couple hours, no dice.
    I've tried both the 32-bit and 64-bit Windows install disks. I had the release candidate for Windows 7 installed previously, and it worked perfectly. I have since tried that same install DVD that I used to install the release candidate, and it encounters the exact same issue. Booting up off the Snow Leopard Install DVD works fine.
    I tried doing a clean install of Snow Leopard on a spare drive, booting off that, and then starting from square 1 using Boot Camp Assistant to re-partition that same drive. Same problem. No matter what I do or try, my Mac Pro does not want to boot off this install disc. I have yet to try the disc in another machine to see if it works there, and I will as soon as I can, but the fact that the RC disc worked a few months back and now will not seems to rule out the boot discs as defective. I've also tried both my internal optical drives with no change, and no other discs have any issues.
    I've already spent an hour and a half talking to Apple Technical Support, and they seemed stumped, so I'm hoping someone will have a notion. If not, I understand and appreciate you taking the time to read this- I have no idea at this point, and I'm generally a pretty knowledgeable user.

    Thank you for your reply,
    Pull all the drives you have other than the one that you will install Windows 7 to.
    I think I will try this next.
    Don't put Windows 7 on the same drive as OS X, give it its own.
    That was initially what I started out doing.
    And you don't even need Boot Camp Assistant.
    True, but it's what Apple suggests using.
    Might also want to try moving the monitor cable to the other card port.
    Hmm, I think I'll try that.
    Any other PCI cards or devices attached or installed should also be questioned or disconnected.
    I've disconnected everything I could.
    Always a good idea to start fresh which I assume you are doing (not trying to upgrade over RC etc).
    Yes, the drive was empty to start with.
    Honestly it seems like the Mac Pro is generally refusing to boot from any Windows disc. Things I've tried since my initial post:
    - Loaded Windows 7 Install disc into my room mate's windows PC... loaded up fine, got to install screen
    - Tried his OEM copy of Windows Vista 32-bit, same issue
    At this point it seems like maybe some kind of firmware issue or some kind or graphics driver issue, but I'm pretty much grasping at straws at this point. It doesn't seem like it's even getting to the point where hard drives or anything matters.
    It does recognize that I have a Windows 7 install disc inserted when I use the boot selector/startup disk chooser.
    Thanks for the ideas, I'll try those out and see if any of them help,

  • Adobe Premiere CC 2014, regularly licensed (Mac Pro early 2008, Mac OSX 10.9.4).Adobe Premiere CC 2014, media offline, not playing, unusable.

    Adobe Premiere CC 2014, regularly licensed (Mac Pro early 2008, Mac OSX 10.9.5, Graphic Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB).
    Hi guys,
    since the CC2014 version of Premiere has been released (on Creative Cloud) I'm experiencing - really often - the MEDIA PENDING (yellow background) issue... even if the clip can be found right clicking and selecting "reveal in finder" or "reveal in project", in the timeline the clip can't be played. Not to mention the many many problems the app is causing stopping working suddenly and obligating me to restart the system to have it regularly working again (usually it stops reproducing the video, only the audio stays alive, but the playhead seems freezes there where I left it).
    One more problem: all the app (and customized) keyboard shortcuts are gone. Totally disappeared (this happened just after the last update, CC v8.1 Caravan. Synching from CC was unsuccessful.
    Please don't suggest me to contact the adobe italian service to have an help... the last time (almost the same problem) they just made me lose time with some basic procedure checks that I knew were not leading me anywhere.
    I ask sorry for my polemic tone, it's a few months that Adobe Premiere is not working anymore as before. And you can't immagine how many hours I've lost.
    Thank you very much,
    My best regards,
    Stefano Bianchi.

    Also, a 512 MB VRAM GPU is really underpowered
    Guys, would you suggest me a new graphic card (in case, which model on this Mac - would be great a 4 or 6 MB VRAM GPU) or a new Mac Pro? This is still a great machine, but it's starting becoming unusable due to this Premiere issue (that is day by day more severe).
    Thanks a lot for any suggestion,
    Stefano.

    I'd appreciate any assistance.
    Thank you!!!

    Transferring  Home  Folders  not  on  a  Startup  volume
    be sure to heed Pondini's warning:
    If you do put home folders on a separate volume,  it's strongly recommended that an Admin account and its home folder remain on the Startup volume.  If there isn't one, and you have a problem with the separate home folder volume, you cannot log on to your Mac!  And in some cases it will greatly complicatetransferring to a new Mac.
    So if you're transferring from an available Mac that doesn't have an Admin account on its Startup volume, create one via System Preferences > Accounts before starting.
