Not getting optimal performance out of premiere Pro CC with New Mac Pro

I have just purchased a new mac pro- 8core 64gb of RAM, and D700 graphics cards. I say I'm not getting full optimized performance because my machine will not playback 4k footage at full resolution. Should it? I looked into the package contents of Premiere Pro and notive that the D700 graphics cards were not listed under supported cards. If I type those in will that fix the issue?

No it wont. No editing software out right now will play back 4K media such as Red at full resolution. The latency for processing the codecs is just to high right now. Redcine X Pro can with Red if you have the GPU accelerated Debayering version. Until that decoding is done on the GPU's in the editing applications, you wont see the full res playback most likely. I wouldn't expect the Red Debayering done at the GPU's in Adobe for a while since Red is still refining it.

Having problem with spinning ball using final cut pro x with new macbook pro with retina screen

Update the software. There is no reason to run a two year old version.

Can I download and use final cut pro 7 on new mac pro tower?,or I must work with the new final cut pro x only?

Disclaimer: This response assumes that a "new mac pro tower" is the new cylindrical model.
1. You cannot download Final Cut Pro 7. FCP7 is part of Final Cut Studio (2009) a.k.a "FCS3" and it was only released on a DVD set. It can still be purchased online (maybe even from Apple) for prices ranging from a few hundred to $1K and it is 5 years old and unsupported.
2. Although there are reports of systems running FCS3 on Mavericks, there are also a host of problems associated with this OS/software combination.
3. A new version of iMovie Pro Final Cut Pro X has been released which is reportedly very fast and is supported.
It's all a matter of what kind of movies you make...

Not getting enough performance out of Msi GT60 0NC

Hello there guys! Since I've got my laptop I have been getting the feeling that I am not getting enough power out of my toy. I dont know if its me who have too big expectations about this laptop or it really should be performing better?:( I have done hours of research regarding drivers, graphic setup and not at least overclocking which seems to raise the performance quite a bit but it easily gets unstable. I am using Msi's preinstalled drivers as it seems like they give the best performance so far. I have also installed the modded Firmware from https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=162629.0 which works better than the original one from Msi. But still, i hear a lot of people playing demanding games on ultra with fps around 50-60. In bf3 I get around 40-60 on High with shadow on medium and post processing off, anti-aliasing off. Turbo is on + overclock. The performance in Gw2 is even worse.
So here is my question: am I expecting too much from the laptop or can I do something to improve it and make it run like a charm? Another question would be if it is possible to change powervoltage to get a higher overclock?
I would very much like to hear from u guys how your msi gt60 is performing:)
Best regards, Mathias Kanstrup

Same here, Gt70 0NE + 680M; overclocking GPU core causes clockdowns so gains are minimal. Overclocking memory is successful upto about 2500MHz but gains are small as the memory isn't the restricting factor in preformance - or the effect is just minuscule. So mostly 2 to 8 % in benchmarks, max.
With extreme air cooling and a modified VBios, it's possible to get up to around 15%......I know this first hand.
I just don't care to do it since there's little point in pushing the hardware that hard regularly. Yes, it's great for bragging rights, but it's not useful for long term use unfortunately.
Overclocking the memory in the GTX675M might help a bit more than in the 680M. I'm not sure, I haven't really followed up on the other cards.

Premiere pro cc and new mac pro 2013

There is so much being written about Adobe CC (Premiere Pro) not working well on the new mac pro that I just want a final clarification from Adobe:
1. Does Premiere Pro work well on the new machines and is the software set up to make use of the new machine elements- like dual GPUs etc??
2. If not is this in the pipeline for Premiere Pro CC updates and any estimates on when?
Thanks
David

You do realize that, for the most part, this is a User forum, not a Support one? We have participation from various Adobe employees due to good will more than anything. They don't and won't share road map stuff with us until they're ready to announce it to the whole world.
I think you're asking the wrong question on the wrong forum.
Pr CC and AME CC are both set up to make use of the dual GPUs on the new Mac. Several of us have already shared our experience with CC on the new Mac Pro; for the most part it's very favorable. A few folks are still having some difficulty with it; hopefully they've opened support cases with Adobe to get that straightened out.

Premeire CC 2014 not playing clips or timeline with New Mac Pro Late 2013 D700

I have used premeire cs5 and cs6 and never had this issue
I just bought a new mac pro and installed the trial of Premeire cc 2014
I import clips like normal, set my sequence and the play button does not work
in the viewer or in the timeline. Can seem to make anything work
also I am on 10.9.5 which from what I can see should be fine.

Hi Ernie,
Try this: create a new user with Admin privileges and see if you can get Premiere Pro to playback video once more.
Thanks,
Kevin

Any Way to "Start Over" With New Mac Pro?

Hi,
I just got a new Mac Pro yesterday and did the Migration Assistant to transfer my files from my old G4. However, when it first came up and asked in Setup if I wanted to transfer, I wasn't quite ready (didn't have the old computer connected yet) so I chose to do it later. When I did get connected and did the transfer (and waited SO "patiently" overnight for it to finish!) - I discovered it had not done what I wanted! I wanted it to incorporate my old computer's info into my main Account on the new computer, but it created a 2nd account instead!
At this point, I don't know whether to keep it like this or try to start over. But my question is - is there some way to "reset" the new Mac Pro to start all over and let me do the transfer within the Setup so it will keep everything in just one account? (Short of reinstalling the whole OS from scratch, that is.)
Thanks!

Install your applications fresh, don't migrate.
If you have a FW drive, that is one way, sneaker net works fine. Assume you don't have an SATA drive from the G4 (if you did it would need to be reformatted).
I would never update or alter the system without first making a backup, but reinstall from DVD should be fast. It can be even faster if you restore the DVD to a small 12GB partition and boot off that, install takes under 10 minutes!
I've seen on MacFixit a tutorial on how the method you used does create a 2nd account, which is why I would have the drive directly connected.
You can also use a program to synch your home folder. I did everything manually, by hand, went through home preferences really carefully and pruned out any old stuff.

Using a 30" Cinema Display with new Mac Pro

Hello Everyone:
I just purchased, and waiting to arrive a new 2014 8 core Mac Pro which is an upgrade to my 2009 quad core Mac Pro. I currently use a 30 inch Apple Cinema display which has the DVI connection. I was thinking that I would use a DVI to HDMI adapter and plug the 30" into the HDMI port on the new Mac Pro. I have since heard that people have been having issues with this older monitor getting it to work properly with the new mac pro. some have suggested buy the $99 mini display port to DVI adapter and using that, but I don't believe there is a mini display port on the new mac pro.
I have considered buying a new thunderbolt display because I am assuming that it will have a much better image quality than the older 30 in display but I hate the fact that it's a 27" and I would be giving up the 3" in size. I do a lot of video and audio recording editing and love the extra screen real-estate. Can anyone confirm a couple of things for me?
1. Will the 30 inch display work with a new mac pro and can I use the DVI to HDMI adapter?
2. Does the new Thunderbolt display have a much better image quality than the 30 in display and because its newer, will look that much better with the mach pro?
Thank you in advance.

1. Will the 30 inch display work with a new Mac Pro?
Yes.
Can I use the DVI to HDMI adapter?
Not if you want full resolution. You need a Mini DisplayPort to dual-link DVI adapter
<http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter>
It plugs into a Thunderbolt port (and USB port) on the computer.
2. Does the new Thunderbolt display have a much better image quality than the 30 in display and because its newer, will look that much better with the Mac Pro?
No, it has more pixels (in the vertical direction), but they are spaced a bit more apart, so you don't want to be as close to the display.

I need lots of USB ports with New Mac Pro, now what?

because I'm in the audio business I needs lot of USB ports with my Mac Pro. On my current 2008 machine, that's not really an issue, with 5 ports on teh MP itself and I installed some USB hubs over PCIe that give me a total of 13 port. I'm not really sure what is the best way to get that amount on the new MP.
Oh, and I really like the stability of my current set up. Before I went with an external USB Hub that always gave me headaches with ports not being recognized.

The only two things I found so far are:
a/ going back to the external USB hubs, which I find very frustrating to work with, because instable with connection and I would need to add some interface to go from USB to TB (which are also rather expensive at the moment)
b/ use some external PCIe enclosures that are really expensive.
So I havent really found the right solution for my situation. Which makes me hesitant to migrate to new MP at the moment.

VERY upset with new Mac Pro

I just spent over $4,000.00 for a brand new Mac Pro, 8-Core, Two 2.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon “Westmere” processors.
I'm still at the point where I may not be blaming this new computer 100%, but when you upgrade to this extent you expect everything to go faster. You certainly don't expect for things to take longer.
I upgraded from a G5 (not exactly sure what model) running 10.4.11, couldn't go any higher.
My biggest complaint is it takes LONGER to do things!!?? I feel like I'm back in 1999 or 2000. To open an Excel file takes, no kidding, 3-4 minutes. To open a Word file, about 3-4 minutes. I have the newest version of Office there is. Dreamweaver CS5 is slower than ever and jumpy, buggy, what ever word you wanna use. Sending files over to an external server takes 200-300% longer.
I'm really not sure what is going on. Maybe a font conflict issue as I brought all my fonts over from old computer.
Thanks for any advice.

Sorry, and of course wish you had asked us first. And read through
http://macperformanceguide.com/index.html - check "topics" there are 100+ with guides to buying, upgrade etc.
One tip: Do a clean install on another drive
Don't migrate applications, install them fresh
make sure everything is current
Your Mac boots by default and requires 64-bit drivers for 64-bit kernel mode
The idea is more cores isn't faster, faster cores are, and even stock 2.8 4-core is a worthy system. Next choice: 3.2 4-core or sweetest of all is 3.33GHZ 6-core
Add RAM to 6 x 4GB or 3 x 8GB for good measure.
Avoid any plug-in or app that is PowerPC and needs to use Rosetta.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=435350
Fonts have been known to conflict, duplicates, even corrupt.
Of course hard to resist migrating. Or taking time, but G5 owners have had to redo everything and that does work.
A test: do a clean install on another hard drive, do the updates, try that and see how well it goes.
Keep boot drive to just OS + applications and mini-home folder
2nd drive for media library, data
3rd scratch, with a small 30GB Mac OS X just for repairs and emergency use
Try a new user account.
See if you are booting in 32-bit mode
Repair your system with FSCK
Do Safe Mode once
Any cables, peripherals, out of date drivers for printers, external hard drives.
Hard drives that were formatted by G5 using Apple Partition Map should be reformatted to GUID. All. If you brought your old G5 system drive over, move the files to a data drive and reformat. Don't leave the OS from G5 around.

Slow render speed with new Mac Pro / NVIDIA 8800

I bought a new Mac Pro to replace a dual G5 because I have a number of Motion projects to finish quickly. My local dealer recommended the NVIDIA 8800 as it has 512 mb RAM (versus 128 on my old machine). I'm finding that the render time is worse than with the G5. I have yet to successfully render a 1 minute segment using Compressor (I've left it to run overnight several times with no success).
In Activity Monitor I'm seeing this message: CompressorTranscoder (Not Responding). But none of Batch Monitor, Compressor or Motion are unresponsive - not indicating any hung applications.
I've read that version 10.5.5 has compromised the NVIDIA card with Motion but haven't been able to get any reliable corroboration. As the Mac Pro shipped with 10.5.5 I can't really roll back to an earlier version.
Any advice? Anyone with similar experiences? I'm trying to render on a new iMac with 4 GB of RAM (with the ATI 2600 video card) but it doesn't seem to be working as it is an hour in and shows at least three more hours.

Will FCP 7 Work with New Mac Pros?

Any indication of I will still be able to work in FCP7 on the new Mac Pro 2013? I'm not too keen on FCPX at the moment. Thanks for any info.

All true, however, FCS 2009 (aka FCS 3) does run with the current OSX (10.8.4) which is two full versions beyond the last supported one (10.6.8).
So, the real answer is, we'll have to wait and see how things play out.

Migration Assistant and permissions issues with new Mac Pro

Hi There,
I've not had any significant issues with Migration Assistant in the past but I can't create a reliable system with my new Mac Pro.
After using Migration Assistant during the initial setup, my user account wasn't even transferred. I tried restarting but in the end, I followed these instructions to reset and run the assitant again: http://stationinthemetro.com/2013/11/10/make-mavericks-re-run-the-setup-assistan t
I've just finished running it for a second time, and while the user account is now on my new system, there are so many permissions issues that the system is unusable (I can't even run Safari). Creative cloud, 1Password, safari, Dropbox are all apps that give me Disk i/o or permissions errors.
If I look in the user folder, many directories within it have a red minus icon. I've tried fixing permissions using Disk Utility but something is not right.
In the past, the new system just boots like the old one but this time round, it asked me to create an account after Migration Assistant had finished - is this normal? I used the same username and password as before but I'm not sure Migration Assistantis working properly.
Does anyone know a full-proof way of fixing and transferring my account without having to spend hours downloading OSX for a full erase and install?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Thanks for the reply,
I didn't understand exactly what to put into AppleScript sorry (never used it before) - so I just ran the following from the Terminal:
$ echo $UID
$ sudo chown -R 503 ~
And restarted - everything works now - thanks heaps.
What had happened and is this something I did or did Migration Assistant just get confused?
I have 3 new Mc Pros to setup on Monday so just want to ensure those are hassle free.
Cheers
Ben

Odd Wireless Mighty Mouse behavior with new Mac Pro?

Hi,
I have a brand new Mac pro and Wireless Apple Mighty Mouse & Keyboard.
The mouse however is not operating properly, it is jerky and slow to respond on a intermittent regular basis. I can move the cursor around the screen but it will stutter and jerk slowly then pick up ok?
I had the mouse and keyboard with my iMac and it worked fine. I have run all updates and re-installed but to no avail. The keyboard is fine.
I suspect it's a hardware issue with my new mac Pro but i'd love it if someone has any other possible causes.
Thanks.

Hi, there's a quite a few people with similar problems, including myself.
My keyboard likes to drop it's connection for no apparent reason, which in turn likes to mess up my mouse and cause it to stutter for a while. Pairing up new devices can do this too, I've found.
It's been thought that some Mac Pro's came with their WiFi and BT wires incorrectly fitted, if you have a search you should find a link to the tutorial if you want to try switching them around.
That said, it didn't make any difference to my BT keyboard and wireless Mighty Mouse, so I switched them back.
I've been hoping for a software fix, but no joy so far, glad I got a three year warranty as standard.
