NMac Pro 6core D500 problems with screen refresh: 10.9.3 warning!

Avoid 10.9.3 on the Mac Pro 6 core, D500.
Problem with screen refresh using Motion soon after updating OSX from Mac Pro late 2013 version of 10.9.2.
I tried my Asus HDMI at all resolutions but to no avial. The screen juddered like it was Windows 95 without any GPU drivers.
Apple's Tech Support had me use many key commands and finally we found out there was no issue with my hardware. Apple suggested a clean install before sending it back for repair. I was fortunate to have had made a backup in the Time Machine of my computer soon after installing all my apps. After restoring my computer is running 10.9.2 version made for the Mac Pros Late 2013. There are no more problems with screen redraw after using Motion.
So, it is clear I cannot upgrade my Mac Pro to 10.9.3 while the issue with Motion's render engine messing with my screen refresh continues. Returning to 10.9.2 has made me realize 10.9.3 is slower and not as stable.
I would suggest not upgrading unless you have a 4k monitor.

  • Problems with screen sharing

    Upgraded three systems to Mountain Lion yesterday (Early 2011 MBP, Mid 2010 Mini and Mid 2011 Mini). 
    I rely on Screen Sharing to maintain the two Minis using the MBP.  Now, while the Mid 2010 Mini can be accessed just fine, the same is not true for the Mid 2011 Mini.  After a long delay, a window will pop up but is black.  If I toggle between scaled and full screen a couple of times, the screen will be displayed but will accept no input.  Odd.

    I was able to resolve the problem with screen sharing from my MBP to my problematic Mini.
    My home network uses a Belkin N600 dual band router with both the MBP and Mini using the faster N band.  After switching the Mini to the slower band, screen sharing began working again.  My other Mini that worked all along was hardwired to the router so was not an issue.
    Oddly, with Lion, screen sharing worked having the MPB and Mini on the same N band.

  • Canon pixma pro 9500 having problems with my print out. colors are glazed and missing colors

    canon pixma pro 9500 having problems with my print out. colors are glazed and missing colors
    i have prfiled the mac and printer wiht colormunki and uplodated the profile sucessfully
    i set the printer to correct icc profile
    print out comes out same with glazed colors and missing tones/colors
    however when i use the same printer on windows and with light room, following same icc profile, colormunki calibrated profile, the print our are excellent.
    i have also tried using printer manage profile using the Mac and Aperture and get same poor prints
    can  you please assist and thanks

    I've a Pro9000 and also use Colormunki successfully.
    When I use Colormunki, I calibrate both of my monitors and the printer/paper combination. Colormunki saves the generated profiles to the correct places -- I don't load or change any profiles after that as that would mess-up what the Colormunki had just done for me, and this would likely mess-up the prints.
    Though I double-check the settings in the print dialogue, the choice for the printer handling things is already grayed-out. Colorsync handles it all just fine.

  • HT4623 problem with screen touch when during writing or opening icon the screen is flickering

    I have problem with screen touch, when I touch the screen to write something or open icon the screen is flickering and keyboard or icons begin jumping

    @ wesleyyin,
    certainly strange. Some questions to help with the diagnostics;
    Which TrackPoint cap you you have on your keyboard, soft domed, soft rim or classic domed (the hairy one)?
    Can you try disabling the TrackPoint to see the problem goes away?
    Anything else laid on top of the system or between screen and keyboard like a thin cloth or something?
    Thanks

    Having the same problem with Adobe Story. Getting a warning that says "Failed to get user preferences, lost the internet connection." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Phone support was useless

    Yes, me, just now! I was thinking it was because I am on a brand new computer and I did something wrong when I put itunes on it. But now I am thinking it is an itunes issue, not mine.

  • Satellite Pro L20 -can anyone tell me whether I have a problem with screen?

    Hi,
    I have a Pro L20 - PSL25E and i have recently been having problems with the screen, it has been intermittently flickering/losing colour and almost whiting out (when the colour fades white vertical lines start to appear).
    This seemed to become worse after i dropped it (only from about 2 feet off the ground not a big drop).
    I thought the sceen may be going, but the perfomance of the laptop seems to be affected when this is happening, the laptop has started to run very slow (the mouse tracks slow, programs I've clicked take ages to run and it sometimes freezes until it stops flickering) which had me thinking it might be a virus or perfomance issue.
    My screen drivers are up to date, i ran a full scan with McAfee, ran a system clear-up and a defrag.
    I was wondering if anyone knew whether this seemed like a problem with the screen connections and would need replacing or whether it could be repaired, or whether it was a perfomance issue?
    Any help would be much appreciate thanks!
    Rebecca.

    Sounds like the Graphics chip has a problem, which I think is a Mainboard replacement.
    You can get a quote for the repair at an Authorized Service Provider. There is an ASP list on the Toshiba website.

  • Problem with screen size in Premiere Pro CS5?

    I'm making a movie in Premiere Pro CS5 and I've ran into a problem with the screen size. The source screen shows my footage in widescreen (16:9) but my project screen is playing the widescreen footage in standard size (4:3) so it is cutting off some of the footage from the screen. I would like to make my entire project standard size so how do I do that? (Most of the chopped off footage was adjusted in After Effects so does that have anything to do with it?)
    Thanks for any help you can give!

    The properties of the footage are:
    872 x 486
    00;00;25;00, 29.97 fps
    48000 Hz - 32-bit Float - Stereo
    The properties of the sequence are:
    Editing Mode: DV NTSC
    Timebase: 29.97 frames/second
    Video:
    Frame Size: 720 horizontal 480 vertical 4:3
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: D1/DV NTSC (0.9091)
    Fields: Lower Field First
    Display Format: 30fps Drop-frame Timecode

    Display Format: Audio Samples
    Video Previews:

    Codec: DV NTSC

    I'm also quite a beginner at Premiere Pro and basically all the Adobe programs, so are there any good websites (preferably free) that give good help and information for beginners like me?
    Thanks!

  • Macbook Pro late 2013 - problem with login screen resolution

    Hi,
    I've got problem with login screen resolution, after upgrade to Yosemite. I use the 4rd resolution (last one) on my Mac Pro (late 2013), and after restart login screen is always on optimum mode... But it's only about the login screen.
    Do you know how can I fix it? I would like to have the same resolution on every screen.
    thx in advance

    I  Reformatted the CF card  on the new computer   it works fine now on the new Mac Pro
    Interesting point about  the low power  of the usb ports   I had to deal with all devices ejecting them selves  when the mac pro  was idle or slept  Drobo needed a Firmware update and another drives  needed  me  to change the sleep setting  or the Mac Pro   to never and  i also  had to deploy a  script to write to each device  ever minute,   this  kind  of sold the problem  with external Hard drives.   I wonder if the lowering  power  to a CF card   can eject  it  in a manor  which would make the  computer  think it is corrupt.
    I have looked at  buying a power usb Hub    but seems only one or two  of the ports are powered. 
    Seems to be a bit problem with the mac pro especially  as everything has to be connected externally  
    Will assume the Firewire Connector does not work.

  • Problems with screen macbook pro retina

    Hi
    I've got a bif big problem. When I started my computer theis morning, the welcoming apple logo was pink. It resumed to its normal self moments later. This is a problem with the graphic card i'm afraid.
    I've never had any problem like this.
    All I know is that yesterday evening I installed OSX 10.9.3. I did not start the computer again since then. This might also be the issue.
    I noticed the update is about improving 4K display support on Mac Pro (Late 2013) and Macbook Pro with 15-inch Retina (Late 2013)
    My macbook is an early 2013 model.
    Anyone else noticed something wrong with the 10.9.3 update?
    Help! I don't want to buy a new logic board! My computer is just over one year old and has just ran out of warrenty.

    I'm glad i'm not the only one to have this issue since 10.9.3!
    You HAD the problem? Did you find a way round it?
    I didn't do any clone of my mac before the update, i didn't know this udate would do such a mess!
    I have on the other hand a Time machine backup, I think I will try Carbon Copy Cloner.
    This software builds a "bootable" disk with your old backup, so you can just boot from it without necessarily restore from it. http://macintoshhowto.com/repair/back-up-computer.html
    I've only got one question: What about the drivers (which seems to cause the problem)? Are they on the hard drive?
    My graphic card is going berserk. The temperature is about 63°C! Normally it's down to about 40.

  • Problems with screen freeze with Adobe touch since 8.1 upgrade.

    When reading a document my screen will freeze and go blurry at times, especially  if my PC goes to sleep.
    It seems to have started after I upgraded to 8.1, and yes my Adobe touch is up to date.

    Although our team members have seen similar issues, we have not determined the root cause of the problem yet. It appears to be caused by graphics card driver failure or incompatibility with the Windows 8.1/RT 8.1 operating system after resuming from temporary suspension of an Windows Store app.
    Have you seen this error message on your Windows 8.1 desktop when your device/PC "wakes up" from sleep?
    So far, we have not seen the problem with Microsoft Surface RT / Surface Pro tablets and most PCs.
    If you are willing to troubleshoot, could you update your graphics card driver to the latest version that supports Windows 8.1 to see if the problem still persists?
    Thank you for your help.

  • Satellite Pro L850 1DR - Problems with Windows 7 Update KB2887069

    I am having problems installing Update KB2887069.
    It appears to install okay ... invites me to restart ... when I do it says it is configuring ... gets to 7% then starts the restart ... shows it is configuring again ... up to 7 or 9% ... then reports it is failing and restoring ... restarts again ... and that's it ... not installed and reference to Windows Update confirms it has failed.
    All the other updates I had today installed okay once I realised KB2887069 was the problem and omitted it from the update.
    I'm running Win 7 Prof Serv Pack 1 - 64-bit on a Toshiba Satellite Pro L850 1DR. I use Microsoft Security Essentials as my AV software.
    For now I have had to hide the update ... but anyone any bright ideas how to overcome the problem. I have tried Microsoft's site but as yet there are no answers that have provided a solution for me.
    Thanks in anticipation!!

    I am "replying to myself" on this one so if anyone else has experienced a similar problem they can see what I did to resolve the matter.
    I contacted Microsoft and received excellent support ... although it took a long old time (over the course of 3 days) to resolve the problem, the staff at Microsoft knew their stuff and proceeded tenaciously to overcome every obstacle.
    I did feel somewhat sorry for them that one little update should result in the need to offer so much commitment to just one customer ... I was also grateful the resolution was achieved over a time when I was not that busy!
    Additional Info: I refer above to 3 days ... for those interested, the time was spent as follows:
    Day 1: about an hour and a half covering all the basic checks including sfc /scannow etc after which the update would still not install. (I had done these but accepted Microsoft needed to have the opportunity to check the situation for themselves).
    Day 2: a technician called me at a pre-agreed time and having done a few more checks decided to re-download Windows 7.1 (over 3 GB ... on my connection that took a long time) and re-install it (without affecting my data, thank goodness ... but again the process of installation took a long time). The technician left me to do all the updating (a further 3-400MB). Time commitment for me about 5 hours ... but I was able to work on other things while the download, install etc was on as long as I kept half an eye on the screen.
    Day 3: the same technician called me back (just when he said he would) ... told him I had no problems with updates (incl KB2887069) but was getting a weird message in Outlook when following hyperlinks and also I could not install IE11 for some reason. Both problems were resolved and other tiny matters sorted over the course of one hour.
    Summary: problem therefore took up to 7.5 hours of my time to overcome, approximately half of which I was able to turn my attention to other things on another machine. In my view an acceptable investment of time to have the peace of mind of knowing everything is working just as it should be. I was impressed with Microsoft's staff who were as reliable as they were friendly and patient.

  • Mac Pro (First Generation) problem with 1TB Seagate Barracuda

    Hi Macianer,
    I have a first generation Mac Pro which was sold with max. 750GB Hard drives for each bay. At this time I am grabbing for straws and maybe someone has any info on this problem.
    I purchased 4 x 1TB Seagate Barracuda hard drives ( Model: ST31000340AS / Firmware: SD15 ), did a regular format after I purchased them ( GUID Partition Table, Journaled HFS+ File System). I am using 2 of them internally (they get quite hot and i didn't want to put all 4 of them in there) and two of them externally (backup purposes). The other two internal bays are covered by 2x 500GB Barracuda drives.
    I put all four 1 TB hard drived through a 1 week stress test to make sure I am not dealing with bad apples. So far this practice served me well.
    Now 2 weeks later one completely crashed (internal boot drive). It sounded to spin up alright but was not accessible at all. I went to BestBuy and GeekSquad said this drive is crashed and I returned it.
    Since I had a backup I didn't worry too much. I put the back up hard drive in as the new boot drive (since it was a SuperDuper duplicat) it worked like a charm. Now the second hard drive starts temporarily freezing the system for 2-4 minutes and seems to get stuck showing the great colored ball of doom. After the freeze it continues to operate normal again and I am able to continue my work.
    I ran the Disk Utility and I got the following message:
    INVALID KEY LENGTH
    VOLUME CHECK FAILED.
    ERROR: FILESYSTEM VERIFY OR REPAIR FAILED.
    It just seems weird, I never had problems with hard drives and now I get these problems with 3-4 week old hard drives.
    I was in a chat with seagate support. First question to trouble shoot: Do you have access to a PC. My answer was no since Microsoft Vista I donated all of them to the Salvation Army. He asked if I formatted the hard drives low level and MBR with HFS+. I said since I do not have access to PC nor do I plan on using my hard drives for PC I formatted it regular with GUID and HFS+. I asked if there is any history of these drives that would help explain my experience. I was hoping for a recall or something of that sort or something that a firmware upgrade would remedy.
    I guess my question is, is the first generation Mac Pro, even though it seems to format and run them fine, not able to handle 1TB hard drives on a daily basis. Or am I dealing with hard drive problems? The Seagate guy didn't seem to be of any help.
    Any help is appreciated or even pointers that would help me in finding the problem.
    Cheers,

    Excellent questions, I too am looking at SSD.
    Some things I know about SSD:
    1. Intel recently released new firmware for their SSD drives to improve long term performance including Trim/Garbage collection.
    2. SSD drives can be setup as SLC or MLC - SLC is faster read 2X, write 4X over MLC, however SLC is smaller capacity. SLC also has a longer life span.
    3. Intel plans to have an 320GB X25-M (MLC) and a 128GB X25-E (SLC) out soon.
    OSX does not fully support Trim and I'm not aware of any 3rd party software for OSX that helps in the garbage collection area. Diskeeper 2010 for Windows 7 provides full support for all variants of SSD, but nothing on the Mac side.
    I'm probably going to wait for 2010 to see what comes out, SSD appears to be good news, but it still also seems to have issues. Given the cost of these drivers and the frequent firmware updates, a wait and see is my choice.
    I've thought about going with a SAS RAID controller and 15K RAID drivers, but the cost/performance ratio comes out about the same and the 15K drives are noisey and power hungry but they're a "known" entity.
