My new Mac Pro will not recognize my old Canon video camera

We've used the 400 to 800 firewire cables with limited success in the past...dropped frames was the main problem. Only used them until the Sonnet FireWire PCIe Card came in to allow a 400 firewire.

My new Macbook Pro will not recognize my iphone in itunes...

I just bought a new Macbook Pro and was able to get all my files and such from my old computer, which was a Macbook about 4 years old. But the problem now is that when I plug in my iphone to the new computer it will not recognize the phone in my itunes. I authorized the computer for my itunes account and everything is updated I'm pretty sure... so how can I get my new computer to "accept" my iphone?

2013 new Mac Pro will not boot up from and external hard drive

New 2013 MAC PRO running Yosemite will not not see a bootable external hard drive when starting up using option key? Same External hard drive will boot up on 2013 Mac Book Pro running Yosemite.

Reading between tea leaves sometimes leaves some things to imagination.
You used SuperDuper latest version that was recently upgraded for Yosemite on a laptop running 10.10 (or even 10.9.3+) that is in a X-brand USB3 drive enclosure, not bus powered btw, moved it to the nMP and plugged it into a direct port, not going through a hub (monitors have hubs of course and there is only one real bus+controller on the nMP that ALL USB3 travels through.
Thunderbolt and self-powered would be nice but they cost a bit more.
I have read where Carbon Copy Cloner (now v 4.x) worked where others failed. I use to use both but have used CCC since its inception and use back in 10.2.2 forward along with SD! for a few years based on comments here.
Drivers missing? someone compared system extensions and found the ones needed for say the nMP are not there? how about running a 10.10.1 combo update and see if that changes - we USE to be able to apply updates to a system that we were not booted from, very handy (could update a sparse disk image of a system that way, one created with CCC).
WD Passports seem popular with laptop users, but they come here to this forum complaining that it doesn't work, disappears off the bus (spins down goes to sleep, acts like a green drive acts).

New Mac Mini will not recognize bluetooth keyboard

I just bought a new mac mini, and the apple keyboard. I can see the welcome "Use english" screen, and I press ENTER on the keyboard but nothing happens! I know the keyboard is not the problem becuase I tested it on my iPad and it worked. I've un-paired it with my iPad and tried again and nothing happens. The trackpad pointer is visible but it does not recognize a CLICK.....WHAT CAN I DO ???? (I don't have a wired keyboard or mouse to hook-up to it )

yeah, it works on my ipad with no problem. I've re-booted too. I'm thinking the only way is with a hard wired keyboard to get it booted.

New Mac Pro will not start

Hi,
After doing the last update from apple my Mac Pro (late 2013) won't start up.
I installed the update this morning and every thing was working fine. After (ironically enough playing watch dogs) my Mac Pro went to sleep and never woke up. I have fanatically tried everything in my capacity to make it go on again without any result.
The lights in the back goes on but there is no chime or fan noise from the mac. The screens does not go on either.
I have tried to unplug the screens and tried every configuration possible with screens and without. Keyboard and no keyboard.
But the only result I get is the ligths in the back going up, and then down again...
I need help!

I think it is plugged in since the OP said "The lights in the back goes on"

Mac Pro won't recognize and connect with video camera

I can't establish Fire Wire communication in FCP 7.0.3 between the device which is Canon HD 20 and my new late 2010 Mac Pro. There is no problem communicating between old MP 2006 and MBP 2008. The new MP has only FireWire 800 ports but that shouldn't make any difference, should it?. There must be something in the late 2010 MP which prevents the communication using FireWire although I can use old iSight.

No, but you do need to configure the Ethernet port in Network preferences. Open Network preferences and select the Ethernet port. Click on the Advanced button then on the TCP/IP tab. Set the Configure IPv4 drop down menu to DHCP. Set the Configure IPv6 drop down menu to Off. Click on the Apply button. If all is well you should see a valid IP address in the network settings for the port. If you see an IP address starting with 169., then it means your Ethernet port is not getting an IP address from your router. You should have an Ethernet cable connected from the Ethernet port on the computer to one of the LAN ports on your router.

HT1492 My new macbook pro will not recognize my password

I opened my macbook pro 13.3 last nightt for the first time, when I went to shut down it asked for my password. I entered what I thought was the same password I have for my other coomputer. This morning it won't recognize it. I must have made a keystroke error but there is no way to change it. I can't get beyond the user picture, Shouldn't I have a secodn chance, It's very unforgiving.

My very new MacBook Pro will not acknowledge that I have my camera plugged in, so I am unable to download any pictures.

     This year for Christmas I recieved the newest version of the MacBook Pro. It has worked perfectly, until today. I went to download pictures off of my camera on to my computer, and the computer would not acknowledge that anything was plugged in. I tried each USB port, I restarted and shut down the computer several times, I left it in for a while without touching it, I tried logging in as a guest user, and I tried using a Card Reader instead of the camera cord. But absolutely nothing worked.
     I found that the problem wasn't the camera cord or camera, because I tried plugging it into a different MacBook Pro and it worked just fine. I had the computer plugging in the entire time so it couldn't have been that the computer was just low on power. The really weird thing is I tried to plug my iphone into my computer and that worked fine.
     Has this ever happened to anyone before? Can you give me some advice? I am very frustrated because this computer is basically brand new and its supposed to be a very high quality computer.

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

My mac book pro will not recognize

My mac book pro will not recognize my hp printer after years of knowing it's connected. USB port works fine with other connections. I have reinstaled it. What do I do?

Hi ...
Go to the HP site and download the drivers (software) that is specific to your HP printer model > http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
That way you will have the latest software available for your printer.
Then open System Preferences > Print & Scan - Print.
Select the printer on the left then click - (minus)
Now click + and follow the instructions. You may need to turn the printer off then back on before your Mac recogizes the new drivers.
You may also need to click the lock icon in the Print window in order to make changes. You may be prompted for your admin password.

Macbook Pro will not recognize my external hard drive

I just updated to a newer MacBook Pro. I ran Time Machine on my old Macbook from a 2TB external USB hard drive. When I hooked the hard drive to my new Mac, it wouldn't allow me to select it as the drive for Time Machine. So I dismounted the hard drive and hooked it back to my old macbook to see if it still registered there (which it did). Now when I try and hook the hard drive to my new macbook, it will not recognize it at all. First question, why will it not recognize my new macbook, and second question, why does Time Machine not recognize the hard drive? It has my old time machine files on it...hopefully I don't have to reformat it and lose all my backup??

My hard drive is now connected. But Time Machine will not let me select the hard drive as my back up drive. This hard drive was used on another Macbook, so Time Machine doesn't seem to recognize the hard drive on the new one. Do I need to reformat the hard drive? I hate to do that because I have the previous backups on there.

2009 Mac Pro will not boot up under Windows

I have an Early 2009 Mac Pro system (Mac Pro 4,1) and I've had this system for 3 years already and have been working under OS X with this system ever since I purchased it.
However, when I tried to boot off my Windows disk, something very interesting happens. The Mac Pro WILL NOT boot up off the Windows disk or a known working Windows partition if two monitors are connected. Upon holding down the option key and selecting the Windows partition, I will get a black screen on one monitor (the one connected via Mini Displayport) and the other screen receives no signal and will enter standby and the system is halted. It does not respond to keystrokes, there is no hard drive activity, no measured power increase on the UPS, no apparent network activity, nothing. The only way to exit this scenario (from what I can tell) is to power off the machine, disconnect the display on DVI, power on the machine again, select the Windows partition wait for the system to reach the login window and reconnect the DVI monitor (at which time Windows recognizes it immediately and the system works fine again).
My question to the community is, does anybody know why this is happening and is there a known fix for this? Quite frankly, having to disconnect a monitor just to restart is very tedious and frustrating.
I have two Samsung P2350 monitors attached to an ATI Radeon HD 4870 (512MB, from Apple). One is monitor is connected via directly DVI and the other is using a Mini Displayport to DVI adapter. Both monitors work fine under OS X with no issue. At first, I thought that this may be a driver issue on the Windows side and after installing all the latest updates and drivers the issue is still apparent. From what I can tell, this doesn't seem like a software issue but rather a firmware or EFI issue as this happens before Windows even loads.
If anyone knows of a fix or what to do in this situation, or if you are also having this issue, I would love to hear your input!
Thank you!
For the record, I am running all the latest software builds on the OS X side (10.7.4, not that it would really matter at this point). I have also disconnected all unnecessary equipment in a trial and error scenario but the results are still the same.
The system passes all ASD testing.
The full specification of the computer and all connected equipment are as follows:
2009 Mac Pro (4,1) 8-Core
2x Intel Xeon Nehalem 2.66GHz Quad-Core CPUs
16GB DDR3 ECC 1066MHz RAM (Apple Branded)
Two OWC 120GB SSDs (One for OS X, the other for Windows 7 x64) - These are in place of my optical drives.
4x 2TB WD Black Hard drives for storage.
Two Samsung P2350 Monitors connected via DVI. (One using a Mini Displayport to DVI adapter).

In Windows I am using the latest (12.4) Catalyst Software Suite, 64 bit of course, downloaded directly from AMD's site after installing the drivers from Boot Camp.
As for installing Windows I used an original (not burned) installation media (Disk is in a pristine condition). And yes, Windows is fine, the problem just seems to be getting the system to boot up Windows with that second monitor. However if the "problem monitor" is disconnected the system boots fine 100% of the time and connecting it later after booting the system will still operate properly.
For the sake of arguement I swapped monitor cables and connected the "second" monitor to the mini displayport adapter to verify that it wasn't a cabling issue and I'm still yielding the same issues.
As for GPU testing, I've played games (Crysis, Grand Theft Auto IV, Battlefield 3, etc.) and I've had no issues with the card or stability.
You would think that Apple would try to find a fix for this, especially considering the caliber of this machine.

HT201364 My Mac Pro will not upgrade past 10.7.5 Now what?

My Mac Pro will not upgrade past 10.7.5 Now what?

No, it is not possible. I have an early model, too, that now sits in a corner. I replaced it at the time with a mid-2011 iMac. The only less expensive route than a new computer is a used/refurbished model, but were you to go that route stick to a 2009 or later model MP.
Surely your business can afford £2500 for a necessary asset. It's depreciable for tax purposes if your tax system allows that. Just ask yourself how much it would cost your business if you did not have a computer. And, consider, if you really need to get a new computer assuming the one you have is still working. Keep it and start putting away enough from your business revenue to buy a new computer later. It's a required part of business planning.
