Please help... confussed about speakers for MacPro

Ok, I am seriously confused about speakers and sound cards for the MacPro...
I posted another thread about 5.1speakers but reading more it seems the MacPro does not support this anyway (well only the DVD player does) and besides the Logitech Z5500 speakers are about as expensive as a full home theatre system!!!
SO... If I just want good sound out of my MacPro for Music and DVD's what speakers should I look at?
The local computer shop was asking about orange and black connections but the MacPro only has the Digital Optical Output or the normal 3.5'' jack, I think, is this correct?
I think I just need someone to tell me exactly what connection I need to look for and which speakers they would recommend. Are the Harmony Sound Sticks II any good?
Cheers,
Andrew

I don't have a Mac Pro (yet!) but the speakers I use with a MacBook are 'Bose' - I would suggest you have a look at the range on their web pages. Quality is very good. Check these out ...

    please help me about answer security question in my apple id because im forgot for my answer, in my apple id no have for change answer, tell me for this please because i love my iphone.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Please help me about Workflow

    sir/mam,i am new for workflow,will any one give me guidence for how i will start with workflow ..please help me about this topic....?

    Somnath,
    Your question is very vague.  What do you mean by new to Workflow?
    Workflow can be defined as
    A workflow is a reliably repeatable pattern of activity enabled by a systematic organization of resources, defined roles and mass, energy and information flows, into a work process that can be documented and learned. Workflows are always designed to achieve processing intents of some sort, such as physical transformation, service provision, or information processing.
    Workflows are closely related to other concepts used to describe organizational structure, such as silos, functions, teams, projects, policies and hierarchies. Workflows may be viewed as one primitive building block of organizations. The relationships among these concepts are described later in this entry.

  • Please help me about jdeveloper application deployment for weblogic

    At the beginning I just thought after developing an adf application then just deploy it as a .ear file and deploy it in the weblogic console and everything will be ok.But in fact I got a lot of problems. Then I got a tutorial for that and I do what it said step by step but some new problems occured. This is the tutorial I mentioned: [How-To: ADF Deployment Guide|http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/jdeveloper/howto/11114/managedserver/wlsadfms.htm]
    Now could somebody tell how did you deploy your adf application?
    Here is the errors I got.
    This is the install packege and the OS I use:
    1. CentOS 6.3_x64 + jdeveloper11123.jar(include wls10.3.5) + adr(package name is ofm_appdev_generic_11.1.1.6.0_disk1_1of1.zip)[and just now I used a solaris11 vm from oracle and install jdeveloper11.1.2.3, the same probem occured as in CentOS.]
    2. Win7_x64 + jdeveoper11123.exe(include wls10.3.5) + adr mentioned above
    Here is the problems I get:
    in the case 1,after I install the jdeveloper(using sun jdk 1.7), the weblogic seems to be well though I didn't configure a domain.But after I open an
    application(which I get from the oracle jdeveloper tutorial demo,which works well in my Win7 env) and I run it, the integrated weblogic can't get
    started. Firstly in the console it said the -jrocket identifier is not recognized, then I modify the setDomainEnv.sh and the startWebLogic.sh file in the
    integrated wls domain (the one in the .jdeveloper directer) to set the JAVA_VM variable to -server.After that another problem came out: when the
    wls goes to status "starting",it is blocked and I turn to the system monitor it shows that a java thread using more than 1GB of memory of my system
    and occupy 150% of my cpu(it's a double-core computer). I wait for about 5 minutes when a error came said "PermSize is too small".then I modify the
    setDomainEnv.sh file again to set the PermSize to be 1024m and MaxPermSize to be 2048.(the variable name is something like that, maybe not the
    exactly right. I think you can understand which one it is.) But the problem is still there.
    then in the case 2.Firstly the jdev and the integrated wls works well, but when i deploy an application which works well to a ear file and deploy it to a
    standalone wls(10.3.5) it never works.the error is something referrence/dependences libraries is not found.Then I tried to new a server connection to
    the standalone wls and I got the tutorial [how_to_deploy_adf|http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/jdeveloper/howto/11114/managedserver/wlsadfms.html] , as the tutorial said I patch my standalone
    wls with the adr and everything goes ok, no error reported.Then I tried the new server in the new machine under the manage of the adminserver and apply the
    adf template in the localhost:port/em console. But after I restart the new server(by the console and then by the stop+startweblogic.bat file) the server is running
    while the application in the new server is just "Unavailable". I tried this for three times in three computer, two of them are running win7,the other one is running winxp.
    I don't know what is wrong and I am totally a newbie about this. Somebody please help me.Thanks a lot!
    regard,Neo.

    Neo,
    there are a couple of problems. First of all, jdev comes with it'S own jdk bundled in the product (jdk 1.6_x). Next thing is if you use JDev 11.1.2.3.0 to build an application you must use a wls 10.3.5 or 10.3.6 where you need to install the correct runtime onto. In your case you first install adf runtime 11.1.1.6.0 and then you need to install two patches which update the adf runtime to 11.1.2.3.0. These spathes are only available via support.oracle.com, meaning you need asupport contract to get them.
    More information you can find in my blog http://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/09/14/jdeveloper-versions-vs-weblogic-server-versions/
    The rest of your problems go away once you have installed the right adf runtime on your server.

  • Error -50 when opening itunes....PLEASE HELP - been this way for 2 months

    Hi Everyone...I have had this issue for 2 months now and even when I have been talking to apple support team they are unable to fix the problem.
    When I try to open my itunes i get the error message -50...I am running the 64 version of the itunes when its working, with my operating system of Windows 7...Apple technical support thought that it might be my anti-virus program - which is systems mechanic pro (an all in one program for cleaning out my computer)
    I have tried un-installing and then re-installing, over and over again. I have also tired deleting file and installing older versions and I again get the same error. If anyone has any ideas or solutions that would be greatly appreciated as I have been without my itunes for 2 months - and I'm sure you all can understand that your not able to do anything without this program...PLEASE HELP

    I resolved an issue of this description just 2 nights ago. I am guessing the error number is a 'General' error number not a specific one, becasue from reading I see many reasons or fixes for the same error code and as in my case possibly a different underlying causes.
    My (it was my wifes iTunes ) that would not open on her work provisioned laptop. Being a server admin I am the luccky one at home that get to fix it.
    The System side scenario of my (-50) is this:-
    1. Work provide (Windows Vista ) laptop.
    2. Work distribute Software to laptop via networked Windows Distribution services.
    3. My wife uses Quicktime to listen to medical audio off the net that requires Quicktime.
    4. Quicktime installed from said Windows distribution services All works no problem.
    5. Son visits us from USA with an iPad.
    6. Wife buy's an ipad the week released in Australia.
    7. I install Itunes to her laptop so we can 'register iPad'and she can manage her Apps, Doc's and Tunes.
    8. All works good.
    9. iTunes 10 is released and updates her iTunes.
    10. I get called (not sure if same day tho) Help me I don't want to loose or reset my IPad to fix this.
    11. I as she had tried several uninstalls and reinstalls of iTunes.
    12 No change.... still (-50) on loading iTunes.
    13. I call Apple Support (after all we pay for the additional support pack).
    14. Apple check a number of services such as 'MobileDeviceHelper' is loaded and they appear to be.
    15. Apple guide me through an orderly uninstall of ALL Apple Apps that are hooked into iTunes. (order of uninstall is specific to be done properly I will post apps removal orde at bottom of this thread).
    16. I get to Quicktime and I note the Windows distribution of Quicktime 7 and additional Quicktime 10 application installed in 'Windows7 Control Panel 'Programs and Features).
    17. I as an Admin at my wifes work (no I have nothing to do with the desktop Builds) realise I need to go in to my wifes work and (yes) reinstall the vesion 7 Quicktime from our Application Distribution service then Uninstall it.
    18. I do just that Work provisioned Quicktime 7 is uninstalled.
    19. I then set about uninstalling the remainder of the Apple applications that are 'connected to iTunes and for good measure two others that are not.
    20. All is now gone
    21. I reinstall iTunes7
    22. 'Voila' it opens now.
    I seems to me that the update to Itunes introduced an additional install of Quicktime and messed things up. if software is 'distributed' to the laptop as ours is Updates like Quicktime cannot happen unless distributed by work. Neither can you uninstall work distributed apps unless connected to the work network. (Oh we do have (Local Admin) permissions on the work provided laptop to do what we did) Obviously Work provisioned Quicktime will not go on again..
    Oh the Order of uninstalling the Apple apps from a Windows 7 Laptop as provided by the Apple Support Guy is.
    1. iTunes
    2. Quicktime (where I saw the 2 Quicktime installs)
    3. Apple Software Update
    4. Apple Mobile Device Support
    5. Bonjour
    6. Application Support
    For good measure I also uninstalled
    7. Mobile Me Control Panel
    8. Safari
    Restarted the Machine and presto it was working again. I did not manually go and delete the Folders left behind if any were after the uninstall. I noted all my wifes stuff Apps, Tunes, Doc's etc came back when iTunes loaded and the iPad was not connected (which I did first). iPad was connected and sync performed normally.
    Thankfully the marriage is on an even keel again.
    I now have my oWn iPad
    and I now am ******* after a MacBook Pro
    Rachel at work still says ... Get a Mac
    Work still resisting.
    May be MazzBritt not uninstalling in the right order. the Apply guy was adamant it needed to be done so.
    Hope this helps some one........
