Need Help finding Memory for Mac Pro

Hello,
I need to buy some memory for some of our computers and want to make sure I get the right ones. While searching I have yet to find one that actually says it is specifically compatible with our computers.
Here are the computer specs:
Model Name:          Mac Pro
Model Identifier:          MacPro1,1
Processor Name:          Dual-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed:          2.66 GHz
Number Of Processors:          2
Total Number Of Cores:          4
L2 Cache (per processor):          4 MB
Memory:          1 GB
Bus Speed:          1.33 GHz
Boot ROM Version:          MP11.005C.B08
SMC Version (system):          1.7f10

Need help with G4 to Mac Pro Migration!

After buying my 2.66 GHz Mac pro, i followed the instructions as to how to start up the G4 in "Target Disk Mode" for migration. Was completely useless.
Whether clicking the button in the "Startup Disk" prefs, or holding down 'T' and restarting, i got the same results: My G4 system would restart but before anything appeared on the screen, it shut down and stayed.
I've been searching all over these forums and doing a lot of reading and experimentation. It sound like a lot of people aren't having good luck with the migration wizard anyway.
II did finally manage to get the Mac Pro to log onto the G4 with a cross-over cable. But i need to transfer a tremendous amount of data both from my primary account on the G4 and 3 non-boot internal drives.
Having to go through a public folder isn't going to cut it. .MAC isn't either.
Is there some way i can link up the two systems such that i can retrieve what i want from the G4's drives (without spending additional money).

Efforts to make "Target Disk" mode function didn't seem to go anywhere.
I did at last figure out how to get access to disks all disks on my G4 from my Mac Pro, however.
For those who may need to know it required these simple steps:
{1} I connected both systems to a hub (or DSL router in my case) via ethernet. Connecting the two machines with an ethernet crossover cable also worked, but of course my access to the internet was then unavailable.
{2} Opened TCP/IP in Network prefs on both machines and set them up identically according to my ISP's instructions, as always, but with differing IP addresses.
{3} Under the Services tab in Sharing preferences i checked the box to enable "Personal File Sharing"
{4} I then chose Connect to server... {command-K} in the Finder on the Mac Pro and entered the LAN IP address of the G4.
{5} At the login prompt i entered my G4 main account login & password information.
{6} When the window with my G4 system's name came up and asked which disk(s) to mount, i selected all of them and clicked { Ok }.
Presto. The G4 main drive, my 2 disk raid, my 4th disk, and my home directory all popped up on the Mac Pro Desktop.

You'll need a Mac with a support OS X and tools to complete the process.

Do i need a antivirus for my mac pro?

do i need a antivirus for my mac pro?

do i need a antivirus for my mac pro?
At this time, you do not need it. There are ways that your Mac can get infected, but anti-virus software will not necessarily protect you, and certainly won't protect you better than other measures you could take instead. When it comes to anti-virus software, you have to balance the benefit of an added layer of security against the liklihood of problems caused by running anti-virus software, and have to also consider the effectiveness of the anti-virus software. See my Mac Malware Guide for more details. If, after reading that, you decide that you would like to use anti-virus software as an added layer of security, use one of the programs it recommends.

Where can I find a 2010 Mac Pro replacement battery?

Every time I google BR 2032 battery, I get links to Cr 2032 batteries. My Mac Pro owners manual specifies BR 2032 for a replacement - i would be very grateful for any info.

The BR2032 is commonly used in car key fobs and garage door openers.
The CR2032 is less expensive, but has a much narrower temperature range and drains more quickly. It is an acceptable (if not quite as good) alternative if you are stuck.

Need help installing 8800GT into Mac Pro (early 2008)

i'm having the hardest time installing my newly purchased (through newegg) evga geforce 8800GT video card into my mac pro (8-core model purchased in early 2008.)
when i first installed it and booted up, i heard a nonstop beeeeeeeeep. i called evga and they quickly explained to me that the supplemental power cord for the video card wasn't plugged in.
this is where my problem lies: i can't find where to plug in the supplemental power cords! it looks like two white plastic pieces each with 3 pins in them. do i need to buy another adapter? do i have the wrong card? i'm searching all over google for help and even watched a couple youtube videos but can't seem to find anyone whos having the power cord problem like i am. thanks in advance!

thanks so much for responding.
this is the card i purchased: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130319
is this not the same one as the one you sent me?
i saw those "aux ports" as noted in the link you sent me. but i dont think the cable i have connects to those.
the aux power cable that came with my video card is shown in this picture:

Do I need antiviral software for a Mac Pro notebook

is antiviral protection needed for a Mac Pro notebook

WARNING: "Avast" is useless garbage that will cause you nothing but problems.
1. This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The malware recognition database is automatically checked for updates once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
The following caveats apply to XProtect:
It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets (see below.)
It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been another layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't actually been tested by Apple (unless it comes from the Mac App Store), but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. For most practical purposes, applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed can be considered safe.
Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could find some other way to evade Apple's controls.
For more information about Gatekeeper, see this Apple Support article.
4. Beyond XProtect and Gatekeeper, there’s no benefit, in most cases, from any other automated protection against malware. The first and best line of defense is always your own intelligence. All known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source. How do you know whether a source is trustworthy?
Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software, no matter where they come from, are unsafe.
Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet binary newsgroup is unsafe.
Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. If it comes from any other source, it's unsafe.
5. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was never a good idea, and Java's developers have had a lot of trouble implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style "virus" affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful. Fortunately, Java on the Web is mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice.
Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers. In Safari, this is done by unchecking the box marked Enable Java in the Security tab of the preferences dialog.
Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a specific task, enable Java only when needed for the task and disable it immediately when done. Close all other browser windows and tabs, and don't visit any other sites while Java is active. Never enable Java on a public web page that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, password-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be practically as safe from malware as you can be.
6. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, if they do any good at all. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use the free software ClamXav — nothing else.
Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
7. ClamXav doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
ClamXav is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.
A Windows malware attachment in email is usually easy to recognize. The file name will often be targeted at people who aren't very bright; for example:
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!!!!!H0TBABEZ4U!!!!!!!.AVI♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.exe
ClamXav may be able to tell you which particular virus or trojan it is, but do you care? In practice, there's seldom a reason to use ClamXav unless a network administrator requires you to run an anti-virus application.
8. The greatest harm done by anti-virus software, in my opinion, is in its effect on human behavior. It does little or nothing to protect people from emerging threats, but they get a false sense of security from it, and then they may behave in ways that expose them to higher risk. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.
9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.

Need advice on on a Mac Pro 1,1 Media Center

I currently have a 2009 Mac Mini running as my home media center, but I recently came by a FREE Mac Pro 1,1 and have decided to repurpose it as my media center so I can migrate my Mac Mini to my bedroom TV where it will live an easy life doing nothing but run Plex Home Theater, Netflix, and EyeTV. This machine falling into my lap was also quite timely because my 4-bay Drobo is running low on available expansion and another Drobo isn't in the budget at the moment.
This vintage mac pro is running Lion 10.7.5, has 1 old and crusty 500GB hardrive, dual x5160 processors, 4GB RAM (one stick i'm pretty sure is toast judging by the red light and the kernel panics), and the standard NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 256MB graphics card. It will be used primarily for the following: network storage for iphoto and itunes libraries, streaming video, Plex Media Server & Plex Home Theater, and Handbrake encoding. I also have a goal of safety of data for my movies, photos and music as this machine will supplement my current Drobo storage.
My plans are for a 128GB SSD boot drive installed in one of the PCIe slots and then to load up all 4 of the 3.5" drive bays with WD Green hard drives. I have also ordered 4GB of replacement RAM, so upon removal of the faulty unit I will have 7GB.
Here is where I need advice because I am not very familiar with RAID and the differences between hardware or software raid. Am I better off getting four drives of the same size and setting them up as RAID 5 (I think) using Apple's RAID utility or should I throw in three 1TB drives and then install a fourth 3TB or 4TB drive as a Time Machine backup for the other three?
Should I upgrade the OSX to the technically unsupported latest version? Or is it not worth the trouble for this application?
Also, is there any benefit to upgrading the graphics card to the ATI Radeon 5770? Would this yield an improved image quality? I am outputting to a Denon AV Reciever and subsequently to a 100" projection screen, if that makes a difference. I also noticed the 5770 has an HDMI port, wich would be nice, but not necessary since I can use a DVI converter and woud still need to use the optical audio out anyway.
Much obliged for any input

My plans are for a 128GB SSD boot drive installed in one of the PCIe slots and then to load up all 4 of the 3.5" drive bays with WD Green hard drives. I have also ordered 4GB of replacement RAM, so upon removal of the faulty unit I will have 7GB.
PCIe cards that use or support SSD are not bootable until you get to 2008 (and that is limited too).
Green are not suited for any form of array unless say NAS and WD RED. Better option would be 3 x 2TB WD Blacks in a mirror, and too many people only use two drives, well 3 is much easier safer and works better. Might want to invest in www.SoftRAID.com product even.
Best price and quality, got my 1,1 with 8 x 2GB (ideal is 4 or 8 DIMMs)
2x2GB FBDIMM DDR2 667MHz @ $25
http://www.amazon.com/BUFFERED-PC2-5300-FB-DIMM-APPLE-Memory/dp/B002ORUUAC/
With price of 250GB SSD $155 I'd go with that or stick with $89 for 128GB .

How can you tell where your Mac Pro was assembled?

I heard mention in another thread that some MP's were made in China while some were assembled in CA. Where do you find this information?

I think this might be what you're looking for:

Need advice on a new mac pro.

Hi,
I need to purchase a mac pro for work in final cut & after effects primarily. Apparently there is some sort of money crisis going on so "money is not an issue" doesn´t hold for me right now. I intend on getting around 16GB (+2 GB with the machine) of ram from other sources and the same with hard drives, I´ve also heard that the current standard video card ATI HD 2600 is fine as I don´t intend on using the machine for anything other than work. My question is regarding processors. For FCS & after effects, what is the real world difference in performance I´m looking at between the standard 2.8 GHz, the 3.0 & the 3.2 GHz processors? The video footage i use primarily comes off an EX1. If its a must have to get the 3.2 then I can afford it but the price hike is quite steep and I can think of other things I could use the money for (1.400€ difference). Thanks

Hi Fran, first of all: The EX1 produces Prores-files, and editing hd video is heavy duty for any computer, considering long render times and compositing and layering. Then again, you do not need the fastest Mac pro out there to get your work done. The 2.8 with 8 GB of ram will suffice. Faster models only save you seconds in waiting for stuff to render. Start out with the standard ATi 2600. Make sure to get a couple of speedy 1TB WD Sata drives (WD10EADS), no need for expensive raids. That's a budget Mac pro that is as good as any.
After that you just WAIT because the real progress should be in software that's yet to come: Snow Leopard and the next FCS should speed up your work noticably, considering that the current FCS isn't too multiprocessor-savvy at all. Also, FCS isn't even fully cocoa, there's a lot of old code in there (i've been told). Lastly you can always invest in a better GPU, because that's where the extra performance is shifted to.

I download the app but cant find on my mac pro

I download the facetime app for my new mac pro. It came up on the bottom with the rest of my apps I tried to drag it to my desktop and I can't find it now. Please Help

It may be that you dragged just the Facetime Icon that was installed in your "Dock" into desktop. The actual Facetime Application probably is in your Applications folder. So look in your applications folder, and if it is there, try dragging it to your computer's "Dock" where it will leave an icon for easy access.

Need help finding the best Mac for gf

hi I need help finding the best desktop. I am looking to buy MAC for gf.
she uses final cut program question is does the GB/RAM/STORAGE matter on performance?
She has a 2009 Apple computer I want to upgrade her to a new one
I Dont know much when it comes to specs. She edits tons of videos and pictures.
what's recommended for a video/photo editor that's good in performance ?

Pro consumer might go with iMac even.
Final Cut Pro latest benefits from dual AMD graphics.
Video is one animal, graphics a much different.
Great site full of performance, buying and configuration ideas:
MacPerformance Go to the main topics
I think you need to get clear on budgets. start with mid range and add all the options and can spend $4,000 or $7,000.
Go to the Mac Store and do some looking and Google for reviews of software, hardware of course.
Barefeats
Rumors Pro
Visit the forum for FCP-X would be a place to start.
Final Cut Pro X

Diskwizard (os9) needs to run on Intel Mac Pro

I have a new mac pro at my work and everyone else has powerpcs so they can run os9. The program only runs in os9 so i need to find a replacement or an application that can import the files.
Any Suggestions?

See — Disk Wizard
"If you’re looking for a replacement for Disk Wizard, you may want to check out CDFinder, because it is able to import your existing catalog files."
However, I have no experience with either application.
No Alibi.

What cable do I need to hook up a mac pro to a composite tv?

I have a newer version of the Mac Pro that has the Thunderbolt connection. I want to connect my laptop to an older tv that contains composite inputs. What type of cable do I need? I already have the thunderbolt-->VGA adapter, however, the TV does NOT have a VGA input, only composite cable inputs. Is there a VGA to composite video split cables available?

minidisplayport to composite video adapters do exist.
for example:
http://www.amazon.com/OKEBA-DisplayPort-ThunderBolt-Composite-Converter/dp/B006G 71C44
