  • Want to Upgrade my Graphics Card but have no idea what I can have.

    Hi guys, I've a 2 x 2Ghz Dual Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro1,1 with 1.33Ghz Bus Speed and 667Mhz DDR2 RAM, I currently have the standard GeForce 7300GT Graphics Card it came with and I'd like to upgrade it.
    I believe that I can only get a GeForce 8800GT, and that there are different versions for different Mac Pro's, but I have no idea which is the one I need to be getting.
    Could someone please help?

    The ATI Radeon 4870 Mac Edition is the best card you can put in your machine. It absolutely smokes with Pro Apps, and is a great gaming card as well.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB999ZM/A
    Some things to remember: You can only use one of these cards in your machine at a time as it will use both of your auxiliary power connectors. Also, it has one DVI and one Mini DisplayPort. If you want to run dual monitors you'll need one of these adapters for the second monitor:
    If it's DVI: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB570Z/A
    or
    If it's the new Apple 24" Cinema: http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8913

  • I locked my Iphone 4s screen and it randomly wont turn on. you can hear all the sounds but wont work.

    The lock button is broken so i cant do the home button and lock button trick... Itunes asks for 'trust' when i connect to itunes but i cant allow trust if the screen does work... Ive been told to restore the phone but itunes wont let me. The phone isnt recognized by the computer either... I have no way to get to the apple store for help. Any ideas for this being an easy-fix problem???

    ive tried charging mine too.  the only recommendation i can give is to allow the phone to completely die, and not being able to access any apps or anything to kill the battery makes it a long, boring process that could take up to 2-3 days (depending on the battery life of YOUR phone).  im in the same situation, but my phone did flicker to life for 20 minutes or so, but then went back to the screen being a jerk.  the only reason im continuing to put my phone on the charger is to assure that it syncs with my icloud so i can just get this piece replaced simply and easily.

    Take or send it to Apple, if you purchased the iPhone directly from Apple, or contact your carrier's technical support if you purchased the iPhone through your carrier. See:

    i recently got new mac air and transferred my old version garageband projects now when I open them in 10.0.2 I can add new tracks but then nothing can record, shows its receiving sound from software inst. but no sound. I checked audio preferences and they are set as they should be. I tried it in all the other older projects and same issue anyone have any experience like this very frustrating.  Can one download old version still ? or can you run both versions on OS10.9.5 ?

    Ok, either my question was too long or nobody seems to have an answer. Sad, either way
    Here's something I found out in the meantime, maybe this is interesting for somebody or maybe - problem's not totally solved - enough info for any of you to give me further advice.
    When I start Logic Core Audio driver de-activated, I can open old songs. Then I save them in a new folder with all audio files and a new name. And I remove all EXS24 instruments as well as the Space Designer. I quit Logic, re-open with Core Audio activated and I can open the song.
    Problem no.1: EXS24 instruments don't find the appropriate samples, but EXSMananger Pro did help me with this. Same problem with Space Designer, which doesn't find the impulse responses, connected to a certain preset.
    Two questions, every idea would be great!
    - Is there any way to teach Space Designer Presets where to look for impulse respones. I can load IR samples directly and create a new preset, but I can't use my old ones.
    - Is it possible to install Logic from scratch over an existing version? Or how should I de-install everything connected with Logic and then install a fresh version from CD?
    Thank you again,
    Joern

  • Hey ppl,my macbook is not booting and by that i mean u can hear the audio wave when its starting up,the screen goes white and then after a while there's a folder with a question mark in the middle of the screen...anyone,any ideea?!?

    Hey ppl,my macbook is not booting and by that i mean u can hear the audio wave when its starting up,the screen goes white and then after a while there's a folder with a question mark in the middle of the screen...anyone,any ideea?!?Regards.

    That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the hard drive data is somehow corrupted.
    Put your install DVD into the drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the optical drive.
    Once it has finished booting and you are at the Install screen launch Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then select the First Aid Tab run Repair Disk and if that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

I cant find anything in my settings or applications and have tried resetting my phone 3 times and still nothing only plays ringtones ever now and then wont play music from ipod, youtube or other applications.

  • I just got a new Mac Mini, and now when I try to import photos into Lightroom, iPhoto try to load them first, then Lightroom can't find the files.  Big problem.  What to do?

    I just got a new Mac Mini, and now when I try to import photos into Lightroom, iPhoto ties to load them first, then Lightroom can't find the files.  Big problem.  What to do?

    Simple:
    File -> Export to get your photos out of the iPhoto Library. In the Export dialogue you can set the kind to Original and you'll get back exactly what you put in.
    Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
    Once exported, you can then trash the iPhoto Library - just drag it from the Pictures Folder to the trash and empty it.
    After that, if you're entirely neurotic about it, just put the iPhoto app in the trash and empty it.

    If there's an Apple store nearby make an appointment with the genius bar to have it checked.  Be sure to sync it and back it up, as well as import your photos and videos to your computer and back up your contacts separately (such as by sync them with iCloud) in case it needs to be replaced.
