Mac Pro Monitor Sleeps

Hi
I have a new Mac Pro OSX v 10. 5. 5. If I select sleep and then later use keyboard the computor will wake but not the monitor. The only way I can awaken the monitor is to reboot. If I just leave the computor to put itself to sleep there is no problem as it will wake straight away when the keyboard is touched.
I have been advise to establish a new user account, removing all old accounts because it is suspected software has become corrupted.
Has anyone experienced this particular problem and how was it cured?

Do you really have OSX 10.5.5? Try updating to 10.5.8

I would like to display what's on my Mac Pro monitor on my iPad with as little latency as possible. What's the best way to do this?

Your image history (if I understand you properly) is stored in your catalog file, and nowhere else, and so it is only on a single drive.
Do you mean you have edited photos on multiple drives? This isn't a problem for Lightroom at all, the software doesn't care, and you can leave things just the way they are. But if it bothers you for some reason, you can move the photos to a single drive if you want. In Lightroom select the desired photos or folders (it's easier to do this using Folders) and drag them to the desired drive.
Alternative if you will be moving lots of folders: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

CAN the Mac Pro deep-sleep with the Apple Raid Card?

So, reading through previous posts, there seems to be a problem (or 'feature' to charge the battery?) that prevents the Mac Pro from sleeping when the Apple Raid Card is installed.
Can users owning this setup corraborate? Is this indeed the intended way to work?
Thx,
Dan

as far as I know, deep sleep is only available for portable machines. if you meant regular sleep I cant help you because I haven't got a RAID card.
edit: I may have confused deep sleep with safe sleep… sorry.

Keeping Mac Pro in sleep mode when not in use

Is there any harm to the computer system to put it in sleep mode each time it is not in use as opposed to shutting the system down? I apologize if this is considered a silly question but curious to know if it causes any harm to the system apart from using up a small amount of hydro,
Thanks for your help

Thanks for the reply.
That's what I thought but just thought I would throw out the question to confirm. Putting the Mac Pro in sleep mode certainly makes for much quicker startup although coming from a Windows Vista environment the Mac is certainly much faster at startup than my PC. I do use a UPS on all my systems and have it configured much the same as you.

Problems with EFI Firmware Update to 1.5 for mid 2010 Mac Pro, and sleep issues

Hello to the community, I have run into an annoying issue.
I need to update the EFI firmware on my 8 core mid-2010 Mac Pro. I downloaded the EFI update from the apple website from here : http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1321
But everytime I download it, as I click to install, it gives me the message:
Alert
This software is not supported on your system.
But clearly this is the correct EFI for my computer. I tried burning the Firmware restoration onto a CD from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1320
But the computer did not respond the way it said it should (with the 3 flashes/beeps etc.) and have the optical drive open for the CD.
So I'm completely stuck.
*Also my Mac Pro had issues with sleep, when I put it to sleep, sometimes when I try to bring it back, it restarts itself, and other times, it just turns itself on and the monitor screen remains black, so I have to hit the power button to turn it off then back on again. This only happnens when the computer has been put to sleep for a slightly extended period of time, roughly 20mins +, sometimes longer. I was trying to solve this problem by first updating the firmware because I think it could be related to that, but I've had this problem with the firmware so I couldn't find out. This is actually the bigger problem for me because it will affect my work. I am currently using an iMac while I fix up this mac pro.
I'm a music composer so I've upgraded many aspects of my system due to work. I have a 1TB Samsung 840 evo SSD, 2 seagate 2 TB HDD, and 1 WD 1TB HD (the original one in the mac pro), along with 32 GB of RAM. So my only problems are the firmaware and the weird activity when the computer is put to sleep.
Some help would be greatly appreciated!

2008 Mac Pro Monitor loses picture, computer becomes unresponsive and the fans run fast.

My early 2008 Mac Pro is dropping the signal to the monitor and the fan on the back begins to run at max speed. I have to do a force shut down and start again. It will then run ok for several hours. This typically happens when it wakes up, I log in and begin doing a task. However, it has been known to do this at a random time. This has progressed to a once a day event mostly in the morning after it has been sleeping for several hours.
I pulled the cover when it did it last and pressed the diagnostic button. LED's for the GPU and PWRG did not light.
I am wondering if it is the power supply beginning to fail or if it is the logic board or, is it something else.
Can anyone help with this?
Thank you

When using the Hardware Monitor software (from http://www.bresink.com/osx/216202/Docs-en/faq.html ) -- i emphasized the stuff in red
The sensor X shows the reading Y. Is this normal?
If you want to find out whether a sensor value is within normal limits, please select the menu item Window > Show Overview (or press ⌘+1) and look for the limits in the third and fourth columns of the sensor table. They contain the known official limits Apple has specified for readings acquired at the given sensor locations. If no limit is given in the table, this either means that it does not make sense to specify a limit for this particular sensor (e.g. the battery capacity should not have limits), or Apple hasn't published any specifications for this sensor.
Note that all up-to-date Macintosh models automatically shut down or enter sleep mode if one of the readings exceeds a critical limit. For this reason it is impossible that your computer can be damaged in an overtemperature condition.
For old computers without temperature managment, no limits have been specified by Apple. In this case use the following limits as orientation:
Most older G3 or G4 processors are designed for a maximum operating temperature of 105 degrees Celsius (221 degrees Fahrenheit), measured at the chip die of the CPU.
G4 processors of type 7455 or later (typically used in Macintosh systems with 867 MHz and above) are designed for a maximum operating temperature of 65 degrees Celsius (149 degrees Fahrenheit), also measured at the chip die of the CPU.
Most desktop hard drives are specified for a maximum operating temperature of 55 degrees Celsius (131 degrees Fahrenheit). For exact information, use the Drive Overview window (⌘+8) to get the manufacturer and model code of your hard drive, and then direct your web browser to the manufacturer's web site to download the official data sheet for this drive. The temperature limits are always specified.
==================================
And don't forget you can look at the fan speeds (there are several in the Mac Pro) - that sometimes will give you a hint something abnormal is going on if the fans start running a lot.

Disabled sleep, but mac pro still sleeps!

I've got a Xeon Quad Core Mac Pro, running 10.5 Server (10.5.5 to be specific)
This computer provides services for a small office network, and I've disabled sleep, but it still goes to sleep sometimes. I went into System Preferences --> Energy Saver and disabled sleep. Below you can see in system.log when the computer went to sleep this morning. How do I definitively disable sleep?
I wish I knew what "Previous Sleep Cause: 5" meant, so at least I could know what triggered the event.
Thanks for any leads.
If this is the wrong forum, please advise where would be more appropriate.

#define kIOPMLowPowerSleepKey "Low Power Sleep"
#define kIOPMThermalEmergencySleepKey "Thermal Emergency Sleep"
not sure which one would be cause 5 - but interesting that there is a tag for Low Power Sleep as well as Thermal Emergency Sleep - perhaps you need to monitor the temperature of the machine and or the quality of the power on the line.

When i wake up my mac pro from sleep,sometime freezes ,sometime spontaneously restarts and displays "Your computer restarted because of a problem."

Mac Pro never sleeps after upgrading to Mavericks

Hi Folks
Just realised that after upgrading to Mavericks from Mountain Lion, my Mac Pro never goes into sleep mode after the time set for it in System Preferences > Energy Saver.
This never happened with Mountain Lion.
Any body here having the same issue?
FYI - This is a 2012 Mac Pro having duo 6-cores, 64 GB RAM, 1 x SSD and 3 x HDD.
Thanks you for your comments.

Test after each of the following steps that you haven’t already tried:
Step 1
Take all the steps suggested in this support article. That's the starting point for any further effort to solve the problem. Skipping any of those steps may mean that the problem won't be solved. Note that, as stated in the article, the computerwill not sleep if Internet Sharing is enabled.
Step 2
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Accessibility ▹ Speakable Items: Off
Step 3
Select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Bluetooth ▹ Advanced...
and uncheck both boxes marked
Open Bluetooth Setup Assistant at startup if...
Step 4
Reset the SMC.
Step 5
Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
The login screen appears even if you usually 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.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal. Don’t launch any applications at first. If sleep still doesn’t work properly, back up all data and reinstall the OS. After that, if you still have the issue, make a “Genius” appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
If sleep now works as expected, go on to the next step.
Step 6
Still in safe mode, launch the usual set of applications that are running when you have the problem, including your login items, one at a time, testing after each one. Some applications may not work; skip them. You might be able to identify the cause of the problem this way.
Step 7
If sleep is still working after you’ve launched all the usual applications, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and test again. If sleep still works, you’re done, at least for the moment.
If you still have the sleep issue after booting out of safe mode, post again.

10.5.2 and Mac Pro monitor resolution issue

I installed 10.5.2 this morning from Software Update and it has now defaulted to a resolution that my LCD monitor cannot display. I can't even boot into Open Firmware, to the Mac Pro DVD, or bring up the drive selection screen (holding down Option when booting) as my LCD continues to say that it cannot support the resolution of the Mac Pro.
I had the settings set to the native resolution (1280x1024) before installing the 10.5.2 update and had all updates before the 10.5.2 update installed prior to installing it. I have reset the PRAM many times, reset the SMU, and tried connecting the LCD via both VGA (with the converter) and DVI. I plugged in an old CRT monitor and was then able to get into System Preferences but even after setting the LCD to the correct resolution and refresh rate it continues to say it is being sent an unsupported resolution. My LCD is a Samsung monitor but I don't recall the exact model number right now.
With the CRT monitor I was able to start downloaded the latest graphics update via Software Update but had to leave for work before I could install it and see if that fixed the problem.
I have seen a number of Mac Book Pro users with an external display problem after updating but was wondering if any Mac Pro users were having this problem or if anyone knows how to fix it. Thank you for your assistance.

Update: My monitor is a Samsung 913T and is less than 2 years old. I installed the driver update via Software Update but there was no change in behavior. Any CRT monitor I hook up works fine but I don't have another LCD to test. I tried reinstalling the 10.5.2 update but there was no change with that either.
I am now using Time Machine to roll back my Mac from right before I applied the 10.5.2 update. I doubt this will fix the problem as it seems to be deeper than that but I figured it was worth a try. I'll also be calling AppleCare support on Monday (hopefully they aren't closed for the federal holiday). I am still seeking any help or suggestions on this front. I don't have the money for a new monitor at this time and would really like to get my current LCD working as it was before with 10.5.1.

Mac Pro & Monitors

Hi. It's me again.
OK. So I can't use the old video card. I just plugged a Samsung monitor into the DVI port on the Mac Pro and my Apple monitor into the miniDV port and I'm not see the mini DV monitor. I'm afraid to restart the machine.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Martoons

Ignore this post. I fixed it.
The dang plug wasn't all the way in.
Sorry.

MAC pro monitor

Can someone guide me: I cnnot align the mac pro screen to the large external screen that sits behind the laptop so that both images appear in sme location.
One set of images is off screen on one monitor and on screen in the other and vice versa.

More to the point do the graphics cards automatically recognise the LCD and set for that resolution or do you need to set up a custom resoultion.

Mac pro monitor has a shadow in its center. Does anybody know what can cause that?

Last day my mac pro showed a shadow in its display center. Does anybody know what can cause?
I use to use it a litle, cause i'm new on macs and still use pc based on windows.

Who made the monitor? Is it even Apple?
If you have the right connections, try swapping out the monitor with your PeeCee monitor and see if the problems stays or goes. But does sound like a monitor issue. But then, hard to know what you mean by shadow...

Mac Pro Monitor recommendations

Hi
Just acquired new Apple Mac Pro 3.7GHz 3.7 GHz ME253 Quad-Core INTEL XEON E5 12GB 256GB PCIe.
For general use.
Looking at " https://www.dabs.com/products/benq-bl3200pt-32--2560x1440-4ms-dvi-d-hdmi-display port-speakers-ips-led-monitor-9G7F.html?refs=58050000-50467&src=3
or
https://www.dabs.com/products/samsung-u28d590p-28--3840x2160-1ms-hdmi-dp-wide-mo nitor-9HMF.html?src=7
Thoughts ?
These are both slightly cheaper than the Thunderbolt Screen from Apple which Ive had and loved.
Si

Some 4K monitors suffer from ghosting- and really bad ghosting! The BenQ looks great on spec though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifU4ZWWZNb8#t=310

Lightroom 5 color labels appear dark causing mac pro monitor(s) to go black, have to restart, get a kernel panic os 10.7 5

I have a Mac Pro 12 core, with a Nvidia Quadro Pro 4000 video card. I have been using lightroom with this video card since 2011 without a problem. I updated to os 10.7.5, which apple says it is the latest f and now when i use lightroom (after about 15 minutes), my monitor goes black, which i am sure is a video card issue which involves lightroom settings, and i have to restart my system. After restart I get a kernel panic report. I unistalled lightroom, and had no crashes. I reinstalled it and i started to get computer crashes again. (not lightroom crashes but computer -) When i open lightroom, the color labels appear saturated and much darker than usual. I took a screenshot www.jlanceimaging.com/lrscreenshot.jpg.
Since updating to 10.7.5 i have had this issue with lightroom and the video card.
I also went into photoshop an unchecked the graphics processor but still got the crashes.
and last;y, i opened up lightroom 4 and had no problems

You don't say what, if anything, you have done to test, resolve or rule out causes, so you can always assume hard restarts, freezes, and not safe shutdowns will make for more problems (corrupt files, file system, directory, etc).
Running Apple Hardware Test; Reset SMC; repairing your drives; ruling out cables, controllers, external devices, even drivers for printers and other devices.
If you are on a UPS, it should be 1000VA or larger (1300-1500VA). If there are other devices and you could be exceeding the load on circuit breaker, also worth looking into and sometimes requires adding a new circuit line.
A good place to start is
http://www.apple.com/support/macpro articles and fixes
tips and faqs on how to resolve panics are also helpful.

When it started, whether it ever happened in the past with 10.5 or after adding a device or driver, too. All the skills for troubleshooting and taking notes.
