Photostream question (Mavericks, ML, MBP, Mac Pro and iPhone)

hi all,
i am posting the dialogs from Aperture enabling various aspects of Photostream/iCloud (mac pro and ML at the top and MBP and Mavericks at the bottom) and i am having a devil of a time figuring out how to manage all of this. i take a /ton/ of pictures on my iPhone and i seem to have a multiplicity of issues i can't solve by googling. i have read what i can find in the help and faq sections.
i should also say that while i SYNC my phone via iTunes on my MBP i /import/ photos into Aperture on my desktop machine which is a Mac Pro. i keep a small library in Aperture on the MBP and do check some of the folders to sync to the iPhone. i find this easiest since i am have a big Aperture database that i keep on the large HD on the Mac Pro but for customizing Apps, synced images, music etc i find it easier to manage on the laptop.
anyway, i have the following problems/questions:
1. do i need to SYNC my iphone to my Mac Pro with some frequency and physically import photos into Aperture in order to not LOSE the photos off the phone after some period of time? i mean, i /don't/ do this with an discipline and i have been assuming that they all remain there in a "monthly dated photostream" folder /until/ i do a physical import from the phone but something i read recently caused me to think that there is a 1000 image limit and that anything NOT IMPORTED by a certain timeframe means photos will basically get bumped off the phone never to be seen again if they are not physically imported.
2. can i leave images in a monthly dated photostream folder (on both the laptop and desktop machines) and basically never touch them - assuming that i am also IMPORTING these images into projects into Aperture?
3. i have an "iPhone Sync" folder in Aperture and i have selected this folder to sync via iTunes with my iPhone. however, when this folder gets to the iPhone the images in here always seem to be mixed up with other images that i took ON THE PHONE. so if i have images on the laptop that i dropped into a folder and synced /to/ the phone - is there a way to keep these separate from what i am seeing on the phone in terms of photos i took on the phone? when they get mixed together it is so confusing i can't figure out what is happening and i can't find anything. i would like to keep the synced images independent of the images shot on the phone.
4. is there a Idiots Guide to Photostream on the iPhone that someone can give me?
A. i am seeing a "Photos" icon and when i hit this it seems to show me a YEARLY list and then in the yearly list there are DATED groups. my most recent dated group shows /locations/ as well and i am not sure if this is an option or what. ALSO, why are images that i synced in a folder on my is there a way to delete these images? is it possible images that were synced from my laptop are showing up in here and if so is there a way to prevent this?
B. Albums are showing "Camera Roll" "My Photo Stream" as well as "Events (from my mac)". Event (from my mac) is supposed to show Images in Projects that were SYNCED from my laptop and Camera Roll (390 images) is supposed to show images taken on my iPhone since the last import if i deleted everything on the last import? Does My Photo Stream (1000 images) somehow show all the images in Camera Roll (taken on the iPhone) AND somehow /some/ of the images synced from my laptop in some way? i mean, this is what i think i am seeing but it is uber confusing.
THANKS for any help on this,
jonathan

  • Accessing MBP and Mac Pro from iPhone (back to my mac? VPN?)

    i am running Mountain Lion on the Mac Pro and Mavericks on the MBP and i am wondering if i have options for accessing these computers from my iPhone 5.
    is this Back to My Mac and if so should i be able to access both computers from the iPhone while running this and what should i search for for setup instructions? or is this a utility only for getting back to my MBP running Mavericks from the iPhone or for getting back to my Mac Pro from my MBP? i am a bit confused about all of this.
    also, does VPN get me something that Back to My Mac does not?
    TIA for any help

    Back to My Mac is for connecting from one Mac from another Mac with your iCloud account. iOS is not a Mac, so that isn't a supported feature – tell Apple you want it – http://apple.com/feedback/
    A VPN is not the same as Back to My Mac. A VPN is a way to 'securley connect into a network from the outside' so that you can access your home network whilst away etc. VPN's can be created on computers or some routers. A VPN on a network can potentially allow you access to everything on that local network.
    You should probably read up on what each of them is…
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_to_my_mac
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vpn
    You will need to explain what exactly you want to access - e.g. the files on the Mac, or use the UI to control the Mac (as if you were in front of it).
    Apps like Screens can allow you some access to the Mac via iOS http://edovia.com/screens
    You may find is much simpler to store required files in Dropbox & access them on iOS, it really depends on what you hope to access.
    VPN's can be setup with Mac OS X Server, but that is probably not something to run unless you really need it (and have time to learn how to set up correclty - it will require you open up ports on your router which is a real security risk).

  • Ssd boot issue Mac Pro and MAvericks

    Hello there,
    So here is a good one.
    I am running the latest of Mavericks on a Mac Pro late  2009
    One of the disk was getting really noisy and slow so I decided to upgrade to SSD.
    I used the disk  utility to clone the main drive to the SSD and then used the Start up tool to boot from the new SSD.
    So far no issue.
    BUT after the next reboot i get a white screen.
    I boot from the installation disk and check the disk utility and everything is there.
    I decide to restore a Time Machine image of my main drive just in case but same thing.
    I re-check the disk utility and the back up has been done properly (name , size etc ..) but still cannot boot.
    When I check the details of the disk it says that IT IS bootable but when I open the Start up tool form the installation DVD, it doesnt see any bootable disk .
    At this point I am kind of lost.
    I don't use any cable for the SSD, it is directly plugged to the motherboard though the disk slot.
    Thanks.

    Which Icy Dock type adapter are you using for it? it won't plug in properly w/o one.
    You will need to use one of the TRIM enablers for your Samsung - I have half a dozen of them from the 830 128GB thru the 840 EVO 250 and 500GB
    They work fine.
    Not all cloning goes as planned and there I think Carbon Copy Cloner is ideal or best, along with the fact it makes it easy to include a Recovery partition when you do.
    Also there should be about 11% free space set aside as spare page cells.
    Turbo-write is an iffy feature and you wouldn't be using it. Data Migration is a great Windows clone program but only works to clone TO a Samsung SSD regardless of source - I like it enough to buy two Samsung SSDs. And their programs

  • Question about Mac Pro and Adding GPU's

    I am a recent convert from PC and I had a Dell system that had two Nvidia Cards in it, but I could not use each one to run one monitor because it was SLI and it could only clone my screen and not extend it. So I had to plug both monitors into one card, and I basically paid for one card that I never really used since I wanted two monitors.
    I have two monitors hooked to my new Mac Pro, and my question is if I put in another Nvidia GT120 will each GPU run one monitor, and will they run as one big desktop just they way I have it set up now. Plus is there any benefit to having the dual GPU? I work on documentary videos and I use Adobe Creative Suite a lot. Will having the dual GPU speed up things like After Effects and Premiere. I know snow Leopard will help some, but in the mean time will an extra GPU help any?

    As Hatter said, you can drive 2 monitors from 1 video card on the Mac. SLI/Crossfire doesn't work under OSX, so unless you need to run more than 2 monitors, there's no need to have more than 1 video card...
    And I wouldn't say you got no use out of the 2nd video card in your dell. If you were gaming at all, you were probably getting better performance using the SLI than you would have gotten with just 1 card.
    So, yes, under OSX, you can drive 2 monitors with the 1 card and it will let you either clone the desktop on to both displays (both show the same thing) OR stretch the display so the desktop stretches across both displays...
    I'll be doing this with my mac pro to drive 3 monitors (using a 2nd video card)... Which should give me a HUGE desktop (I can't describe how much nicer it is to have tons of desktop space when programming or doing video editing...)

  • Buying a Used MBP/Mac Pro

    My wife and I are moving from the US to the other side of the planet next year and we need
    upgraded Macs from our present models; she has a Powerbook 12" 1ghz and I am
    limping along with a dog of a 2.0 G5 tower.
    My wife is happy with her G4 but for anyone else stuck and unable to upgrade
    beyond 10.5.8, you know what issues are going on there and will only get worse.
    So to keep current with browsing, she'll be wanting an intel laptop, and I'm
    directing her towards the 13" Macbook Pro line.
    I've had 2 of these 2.0 G5's and both are/were dogs. The first one's power supply died
    and the 2nd one that I'm using now has issues with audio, Quicktime and pretty
    much any video playback. iTunes will stop spontaneously, and will also do so
    whenever I use another app while playing something in itunes, namely songs, etc,
    etc.  Since it hasn't caught on fire yet, I'll tolerate it's problems till I can get some
    flavor of a Mac Pro.
    We'll be buying used units, as we can't afford new so my question is, of the
    Macbook Pro line, is there one model that stands out as a good performer or one that
    has shown itself to be problematic?  Advantages/disadvantages of the unibodies?
    I'm open to any model, but will probably stick
    to the 13" size as my wife likes that.  I'm seeing models going for $4-700 which is
    within tolerances.
    The same question applies to the Mac Pro's as to which one/s do well or have a
    poor track record. Also is there a site that has info like this? I've already
    googled
    "best mac models",
    "mac performance guide",
    "mac quality guide",
    "mac dependability guide/chart" and appledefects.com is a non-site now w/no new
    posts since '09.
    Thanks in advance!
    Eric

    I'm not much of a hardware guy, so I don't feel as though I could give you much in the way of input. But I did notice that you posted your initial question two days ago and my thought was that you might get a better response on the MBP boards. You could also ask about Ebay experiences in purchasing laptops.
    Is your current 2.16 a bottleneck? I got by with a 2.0 PPC for years. When I finally upgrade to an Intel processor there was a big reduction in render times and the faster graphics improved playback. But as to how the Core2 stacks up against the i5, perhaps check out Barefeats.
    Good luck.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks on my Mac Pro, mail always requires that I type in my password when launching. How do I change that?

    After upgrading to Mavericks on my Mac Pro, mail always requires that I type in my password when launching. How do I change that?

    If your password is accepted, and Mail connects to the account, but you're prompted for the password repeatedly, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Note: these steps don't apply if the server rejects the password. That's a different problem.
    Step 1
    When prompted for the password, check the box marked Remember this password in my keychain.
    Step 2
    Check that the keychain is working.
    Step 3
    Check that the default keychain is unlocked.

  • I just replaced the hard drive for my Mac Pro, and I am trying to restore what is on my Time Capsule, but it wont connect, and only is giving me the pinwheel of death. What do i do?

    I just replaced the hard drive for my Mac Pro, and I am trying to restore what is on my Time Capsule, but it wont connect, and only is giving me the pinwheel of death. What do i do?

    You will need to boot from some alternate boot device to accomplish this, if you did not initialize the drive before installing it.
    If you have another Mac, you may be able to use FireWire target disk mode.
    If your MacBook has a DVD reader and you have a Mac OS X Installer/Utilities DVD, such as the one that shipped with it, you can boot from that DVD, answer only the "what Language" question, and wait a quarter minute for the MenuBar to be drawn. Then examine the Utilities menu or the Installer menu and Find Disk Utility.

  • Cannot Complete Installation of Vista with Mac Pro and Boot Camp

    I only have one hard drive with my Mac Pro, and I partitioned the drive into two sections with boot camp and restarted with my Vista 64 bit Ultimate CD.
    I have tried formatting the partition with Vista and it still gives me the dreaded error message of "windows is unable to find a system volume that meets its criteria". I've tried deleting the partition during installation, and making a new partition with Vista, reformatting, then restarting the computer. Same message.
    I don't know what to do. I've tried like mad searching for topics like this one here, but every one of them deals with installing vista on a second dedicated hard drive on the Mac Pro. I only have one. How do I get this to work?
    Please help if you can. I would REALLY appreciate it. I'll be watching the thread. Thank you!!

    Thank you for your reply! I'll be here all night.
    I have the 3GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors. I tried installing Vista ultimate with my 32 bit software, but I still get the same message (I own both legally, btw).
    Thanks for your help.
    Several things to do:
    Run OS-X Disk utility and repair the disk if necessary, and file permissions.
    Be sure your HD has the GUID partition scheme and if it has SMART that it's OK
    Zap the PRAM
    Be sure you are logged in as administrator when creating the BC partition and starting the installation of Windows from Leopard
    When I installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit, I was using BootCamp beta, 1.2 or 1.3. I created the partition with BootCamp Assistant.app as you did. It's a 60GB partition that I formatted with NTFS with BC.
    After starting the install in Tiger, I then simply inserted the Vista 64-bit DVD and that was it.
    It just installed.
    Ditto with XP-Pro on my other MBP. Zero problems with BC. It was also done with a beta, BC1.0.
    I have never installed Windows using Leopard. When I updated to Leopard from Tiger nothing changed, but there seem to be more problems with Leopard and BC2.0 than there were with Tiger and the beta versions.
    There are no requirements about legality until after the OS is installed, so that's a moot point.
    There are some install DVDs that are in ISO format and they won't work, but it seems that yours is working but not finding a suitable volume.
    You might try reformatting the BC partition with BootCamp assistant as FAt32 and seeing if that works, but you are limited to 32GB if you do that, but it would be a good test. Vista should then format it into NTFS.
    Be sure that your Leopard OS is fully backed up because stuff happens when you keep fooling around with partitions.
    Also look through this forum for similar problems.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on both my Apple Mac Pro and Apple MacBook Pro

    I think I found the answer to my question: "May I install my copy of Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on both my Apple Mac Pro and on my recently purchased Apple MacBook Pro?" I think my question was answered in reading the text of the agreement for use of this site in the following:
    "You may activate the Software on up to 2 devices (or virtual machines) at a time, if these activations are associated with the same Adobe ID for the same individual, unless stated at http://www.adobe.com/go/activation . However, you may not use the Software on these devices simultaneously."
    If this is correct, would you confirm. I know how security conscious Adobe is with their software.
    Thank you! Be Safe!
    Ken

    Hi kennethf71183385,
    Thank you so much for asking! Yes, you are entitled to activate your copy of Acrobat on two computers. Please see Activation & Deactivation Help - Adobe Support for more information about activating Adobe software!
    Please let us know if you have additional questions.

    I have a 24" Apple LED Cinema Display purchased less than a year ago. Will it connect to a new Mac Pro
    Yes. All the standard cards that come in the Mac Pro have one Mini DisplayPort. The 24"LED display will plug into that.
    and what happens to the power cable that's attached to the LED display?
    It is not used if you don't have a MacBook.

  • Universal power pack for Mac air, Mac pro and ipad

    Have an 10 hour flight comming up    Would like to purchase universal power pack for Mac air Mac pro and ipad

    I do not take Intergrative Nutrition, but I have some advice for choosing your device.  Your choice of device should be based upon what you will use your device for currently and in the future.
         If you are just using your device to use the internet and do light activities (smal typing, etc.) then the MacBook Air is a better choice.  You should note that the Air has no Superdrive(for your DVD's CD's etc.) so you will have to put out more money to get one.  It can also be slow because of the Flash Memory.
         If you are going to be doing more "heavy" computing (photo editing, sound editing, lots of multitasking, large file sizes etc) then I would suggest getting the MacBook Pro. 
         If you prefer tablets, or tablet style reading then the iPad will be better for you.  You should keep in mind that ther are restrictions on the files that you can view or work with on the iPad.
    Overall, I prefer the MacBook Pro because of its versatility, durability and capabilities to do multiple file types.  If you have any more questions, feel free to drop by your local Apple Store or Apple Authorize Retailer.  They will be happy to help you!
