Optimized software and apps for Mac Pro 2013 ?

Hi
I'm wondering which apps have been optimised for the Mac Pro ?
The ones I was able to find so far:
Final Cut X
Compressor
Motion
Logic
Aperture
here: http://appleinsider.com/articles/13/10/23/updates-to-aperture-final-cut-pro-will -tap-into-horsepower-of-new-mac-pro and here : http://www.idownloadblog.com/2013/12/19/final-cut-pro-compressor-motion-mac-pro- 4k-update/
Pixelmator (here: http://www.pixelmator.com/blog/2014/01/23/pixelmator-3-1-marble-fully-optimized- for-new-mac-pro/)
Any other you can think of ?

If what you say is true, then it would be a question of hardware support capabilities in Win 7, not a near-sighted policy. In any event, these are user forums. You aren't speaking to Apple, so I suggest you speak to Apple. Don't complain here. It's inappropriate and violates the Terms of Use.

Software and games for mac os 9.1

i been Google searching software and games for mac os 9.1 but i cant find software and games for mac os 9.1? dose anyone know a website to get software and games for mac os 9 only
thinks mac os x 10.2.8 :]

You might check the computer software section at a local Half-Price Books store, sometimes they have some new in-box Mac OS 9 software.
Some kid games that I used to have were Freddi Fish, Pajama Sam, and the Backyard Sports series from Humongous Entertainment, they run pretty well on an old G3.
Pangea had a demo version of Nanosaur:

Freeverse has a link to the original version of Wingnuts that should work in OS 9 on this page

64 bit OS and Applications for Mac Pro

I was all set to replace my ailing G5 PM with a MBP when Apple released the Mac Pros today. I originally bought the G5 because I wanted to be able to run 64 bit software when that became the standard. With the switch to 32 bit Intel chips, I thought that was no longer a concern. With Woodcrest chips in the Mac Pro, however, I guess it is.
When the 64 bit Leopard is released and developers also release 64 bit software, will it all run on the 32 bit MBPs? Apple has said that the 64 bit machines will run 32 bit software side-by-side, but I am worried about compatability in the other direction.
Dual 2.0 G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I'm an active ADC member, paid developer account through for work, though I do not believe it's up on ADC yet to download for dvelopers as preview release. It would be in the next week or so i'd think once they get it out to the higher-priority accounts/users. Apple was giving out a developer preview with all technologies and xcode3.0 and do-ddads to attendees at wwdc today after the keynote. i was lucky enough to be attending wwdc for work with my boss and another employee (at first i 'uged' it, but it is great so far! can't wait for tomorrow).
basicly you are right, its developer only (apple obviosuly and soon ADC members) as well as the dev preview that was handed otu at wwdc today

Windows 7 support dropped for Mac Pro 2013

I have sent feedback to Apple already as I understand from the support page Windows 7 x64 support has been dropped for the new Mac Pro.
Bearing in mind the corporate workstation market has largely shunned Windows 8/8.1 I find the dropping of support inexplicable and plain daft to enable the Mac Pro to take market share from the windows hardware domain.
My clients have purchased two Mac Pro's on launch day on the prerequisite that they can run Windows 7 with the possibility of more orders after the new year once testing is complete. Unless it can be made to work using EFI boot which as I suspect is the reason support and can easily be worked around you lose in my case 2 orders with the possibility if 10/20 more after. No workaround will mean cancelled orders.
Hopefully if enough of us air our disappointment Apple will reconsider because they will lose a sizeable chunk of sales because of this near sighted policy.

Which fonts are in the Adobe 'Font Folio Select' and can be embedded in software and apps for distri

Hi,
I need to select a few fonts for our client to choose from that can be legally embedded into their software for distribution.
After reading this article:
http://blogs.adobe.com/jlockman/2011/06/06/fonts-and-where-can-i-use-them/
it sounds like there is an Adobe 'Font Folio Select' that contains fonts we can use but I can't find any information about where to get hold of it.
I have spent hours hunting for fonts we can legally use and read lots of EULAs and still have no idea what fonts are available to developers!
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Thanks for reaching out to the Adobe Type Team.
While the James Lockman blog you referred to is correct that our product, Font Folio Select, contains only fonts that we control and for which we can offer the broadest rights, it is mistaken in its description of how it is offered. Font Folio Select is actually a collection of fonts which we offer for server usage - for customers who need fonts for automated printing services, or for web based services which offer a font selection. I'm very sorry for the misinformation.
Font licensing for applications is something for which we can provide you a direct quote. If you would like to email me directly at the address listed below, I can get you in touch with a sales associate who can help you. Additionally, if you provide me with a list of fonts you are interested in licensing, if there are fonts which are not ours, I can also provide you with foundry contact information so you can reach out to them directly.

Tried to install yosimete software and now my MAC Pro won't work

Yosimete software won't install

Yes I was upgrading from 10.6 to 10.10.
Says OS X could not be installed on your computer.
File system verify or repair failed.
Quit the installer to restart your computer and try again.
I did all that a couple of times and still won't work.

Mac Pro (2013) with Mavericks and Mac Office Excel

Using MAC Excel VBA, and obviously with my personally written Excel VBA application, I have discovered that
in a multi-Workbook Excel app, I am unable to "Open" additional Workbooks (xlsm-type) successfully
from any Workbook OTHER THAN with the very first Workbook opened in the app. In other words, if my app needs
2 or more Workbooks opened at any one time, only the 1st Workbook opened can "open" any other workbooks
successfully.
If the 2nd or any other Workbook in my app tries to execute an "open workbook" procedure of its own, no Err is thrown
and no indication is given that its "open Workbook" statement did not work, but the program/routine just continues as if
nothing was wrong. Additionally, all statements pertaining to the "not-opened" Workbook don't do a thing also
(i.e., .Clear, .ClearContents, .Range, .Copy, etc. don't work and don't throw errors).
On the other hand, when I restructure my Excel application such that the very first opened Workbook also "opens"
all the other Workbooks needed in my entire application, then my Excel application works great, even when I call
other subroutines that don't include "open workbook" statements but do include opject references and database
statements for whichever already-opened Workbook it needs. In this case also, all the final "close workbook"
statements must be properly placed in the first workbook's code and eventually executed at the end, and the entire
app works appropriately and successfully.
My question is, is it an Excel rule that ONLY the first workbook opened is allowed to open additional Workbooks, or
is this a MAC Excel limitation only, or is there a MAC Excel or VBA setting that solves this situation? I have done VBA
debug tracing in my app code to "prove" my point over and over here, and have found nothing that solves my delimma.
Maybe there's an additional workbook "open" parameter that might help, but I haven't discovered it yet. Note that
I am openinfg all my Workbooks with ReadOnly:= false
Note: I am using a Mac Pro (2013) 6-core, Mavericks, and Excel 11 VBA. Everything else on my entire system works great.
Thank you for any suggestions. I have used Windows Excel for many years very successfully and don't recall ever
encountering this situation with Workbooks before.

18. Can I connect a Mini DisplayPort monitor or monitor using a Mini DisplayPort adapter to a Thunderbolt port on my Thunderbolt-equipped Mac?
Yes. A Mini DisplayPort display or a display connecting with a Mini DisplayPort to VGA, DVI, or HDMI adapter will work just like it was connecting to a Mini DisplayPort connector when plugging in directly to the Thunderbolt connector on your Apple computer. Click here for more information on Mini DisplayPort connections and adapters.
19. How do I connect my Mini DisplayPort monitor or monitor using a Mini DisplayPort adapter to my Thunderbolt-equipped Mac when I have other Thunderbolt devices connected?
When connecting a Mini DisplayPort display or a display using a Mini DisplayPort adapter to a Thunderbolt peripheral (except as described in question 14), make sure the display is connected at the end of the Thunderbolt chain. You can use only one Mini DisplayPort device in the Thunderbolt chain.
Note: Systems with more than one Thunderbolt port, like an iMac, can have more than one Mini DisplayPort monitor or monitor connected with a Mini DisplayPort adapter connected as each Thunderbolt port can support one Mini DisplayPort display.

What is the best mac cleaner and anti virus for mac pro.

what is the best mac cleaner and anti virus for mac pro.

OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it updated with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Disable Java in Safari > Preferences > Security.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

Best Mac Pro (2013) configuration for photo editing/processing?

Hi all,
I couldn't find a reliable answer to this in my searching here or on google, hence I'm posting it here.
I'm going to buy and upgrade to the new mac pro when it's announced this month (Dec 2013). My primary use will be photo processing in photoshop.
Configuring it with 64gb RAM is the no-brainer part. And probably a 512gb or 1TB flash drive too.
The bit I'm unsure about is whether to opt for the 6 core processor option over the quad core? For photo editing (adding layers, filters, brushing in, multiple files open at times, running batch edits etc), does anyone have an opinion on whether the performance increase (if there is in fact any increase for photo work?) of the 6 core 3.5ghz would justify paying the extra AU$1300 difference over the quad core 3.7ghz option?
And from my earlier research paying the huge prices for 8 or 12 cores would simply be a waste for photo processing.
Thanks for the advice...

Mozzzaaa
I have the exact same requirements, here are my findings based on some observations from Activity Monitor and research based on how the hardware works.
Photoshop does not utilize multiple cores well for many standard editing ativities - therefore one core will be busy while the rest remain idle, however I have noticed over time that upgrades to Photoshop seem to take more advantage of multiple cores as Adobe updates the code. For example, appling filters utilize all of the cores while the filters are computing changes (smart sharpen for example). Try running CPU monitoring in Activity Monitor (double click the CPU graph to display all cores).
Lightroom utilizes all of the cores for Import, export and other activities that process multiple files. Being more modern code, it beter utilizes muti cores.
Keep in mind that each core handles two code threads, therefore a four core system is capable of processing 8 "streams" of code, the 6 core can manage 12 threads, etc.
Here is a screen shot of Mac Book Pro running PS CC Smart Sharpen:
All the new Mac Pro run at 3.9Hz Turbo Boost - they are all the same in that respect. This means that when the processers are not hot, at least one core will run at 3.9Hz - therefore on a relativly idle machine (just editing in PS for example) you would likley be running at 3.9Hz on all the Mac Pro 2013.
There are also the GPUs to consider. Apple as usual has not made enough information available to easly determine the cost benefits of the more powerful GPUs and I don't know if PS would utiliize the AMD GPUs well now, or perhaps better utilize them for the future. Perhaps someone could comment on that. Here is an interesting article: http://architosh.com/2013/10/the-mac-pro-so-whats-a-d300-d500-and-d700-anyway-we -have-answers/
Clearly the D500 that is standard with the 6 core seems a major bump over the 4 core D300 (therefore the costs of the 6 core reflect that). I don't know how much the D700 would cost - it would be helpful if this were published so I could consider my order.
There are two GPU in the new Mac Pros - but the purpose of the second one is not toally clear (thanks again to Apples's communication). It likley will be utilized for all sorts of things that don't really exist now and FCP X is scheduled for a new release better utilize the GPU for video (as nwaphoto mentioned video processing will be a major use of this equipment).
I was interested in your comment regarding 64 Meg ram. Yes that would be a hudge boost to PS performance, but would it be better to purchase from Apple or wait for OWC who offer RAM at major discounts over Apple. Once again, no info yet that I am aware of.
I believe the flash drive is upgradable but rumor has it that it uses a proprietary connecter. Makes me want to go with the largest size but once again OWC might be the way to go for an upgrade in a year or two.
In the past, the 6 core 2012 Mac Pro's were somewhat of a sweat spot in terms of horsepower vs cost. I will be considering that in my decession to upgrade. So I am considering a 6 core, will check out the Ram and Flash diIsk based on price - which is the infor I don't have. If you have anything please post
Thanks

Mac Pro 2013 and Premiere Pro - The performance issue that Adobe don't want us talking about!

In May 2014 I bought a 2013 Mac Pro to help my business with the ever increasing demands video editing was placing on our systems. I was so excited to see how the 12GB of power the AMD D700s would affect my workflow and ability to edit footage seamlessly without delays to the creative process.
However, to my dismay pretty much since starting to work with the system I found that there was an issue with the GPUs, Mac OS and Adobe’s applications. It was first reported by many other users in early 2014 and as yet know one from Adobe has really commented officially on the issue.
Sadly it appears to still be present today and speaking with an Adobe rep confirmed this. Trouble is no one is doing anything about it. My hope is that, if you have watched this video and are experiencing the same issues then please let’s get the comments going, share and like the video and let’s get Adobe, Apple and AMD to pick up this with immediate haste! Thank you.
Below is a video of the problem I have been experiencing. It's a little long but I wanted to give a good account of the problem we are seeing so that someone can help! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE help!
Mac Pro 2013 and Premiere Pro GPU Issue - YouTube
Thank you for your time and I'd love someone to help!

Thanks for responding! It's such a pain and I have been chatting to one of Adobe's senior consultants about this and still none the wiser. I have sent my machine off to the retailer as it was still under warranty. Nothing wrong with GPU apparently which is a relief although I kinda wish it had been that as it would have been an easier fix. Adobe told me that working with H.264 is totally possible but if you have a complex sequence with multicam and nested video with effects applied then it will seriously hinder performance. Sadly transcoding to ProRes doesn't seem to help either and they suggested not adding any effects to the nested clips, flattening out the multi cams etc and this has improved things a bit. Sent a sequence to SpeedGrade the other day though and the machine had a fit. FCPX though seems to be working great and has a few advantages over Premiere so I may be making a switch for this type of work until Adobe can sort out this issue. I still feel that the application isn't fully making the most of the GPUs. In fact, I found out that multicam is actually all still on the CPU and that they are trying to implement GPU handling of multicam soon.

Cables for Mac Pro (Late 2013)

I am in transition from Mac Pro 2010 to Mac Pro 2013. Now I'm planning what kind of cables I'm going to need and where to buy them. I've got 2 Epson printers, USB keyboard, 2 30" Cinemas, USB EyeTV adapter, FireWire camera and perhaps two other USB and FW devices which I can't think of right now.
I'm planning to buy 2 expensive Apple Mini Display Port to Dual Link DVI Adapters, Thunderbolt or USB to USB Daisy chain adapter, Thunderbolt to FW adapters. I have no USB 3 devices. Also, perhaps, I need several Thunderbolt, USB and FW cable extensions.
I would like to have your opinions and recommendations.

there are a number of TB Docking stations for you on www.macsales.com

Using IMAC 27 (LATE 2009 ) as primary display for MAC PRO PRO 2013

I have been a user of IMAC & Macbook but not mac PRO.
I wish to upgrade to MAC PRO ( 2013 ). As i want to make the transition less costly i want to use my current IMAC 27in ( LATE 2009 ) as the one and only display.
First question . Is the above possible with MAC PRO ?
Second question related - When using the above option eg MAC PRO as main system and 27in IMAC as display. Will the hard drive and on the IMAC be possible to go in to sleep mode. I would be concious about power consumption and the life expentancy of the constant use of the HARD DRIVE on the IMAC.
I would like to be able to keep the hard drive on the IMAC off or at least in sleep mode.

I just purchased a MacBookPro after having a MacBook. I have ILife, IWorks and Office for Mac. How do I get those programs on to my MacBook Pro? I will still use my MacBook at work so I need those programs to remain on it as well.

I just purchased a MacBookPro after having a MacBook. I have ILife, IWorks and Office for Mac. How do I get those programs on to my MacBook Pro? I will still use my MacBook at work so I need those programs to remain on it as well.

You need a Firewire cable to run between the two Macs. Using Utility>Migration Assistant running on your new MacBook Pro, transfer what you want (with all the preferences and such) from your MacBook to your MBP. Here's more info from Apple.
You might have an issue with the Serial number for Office, but hopefully you have that around.
Hope this helps.
