Possible iSub Solution in Mac OS 10.4.6!!

I think I figured out how to get the iSub working properly again in Mac OS 10.4.6. Before, I had problems like the iSub dropping out and not working consistently. After applying the fix, I haven't had the problems occuring yet. Try at your own risk though.
Here is what I did:
1) Download the following files:
a) Mac OS 10.3.8 Combo Update
http://wsidecar.apple.com/cgi-bin/nph-reg3rdpty1.pl/product=05369&cat=1&platform =osx&method=sa/MacOSXUpdateCombo10.3.8.dmg
b) Onyx
http://www.macupdate.com/download.php/11582/OnyX.dmg
c) Pacifist
http://www.charlessoft.com/Pacifist.dmg
2) Install Onyx and Pacifist programs
3) Go to: Macintosh HD (Your HD) -> System -> Library -> Extensions AND make a copy of the following file to your desktop -> AppleOnboardAudio.kext
4) Once AppleOnboardAudio.kext is copied to your desktop, drag it to the trash and enter your admin password
5) Once Mac OS X Combo Update is downloaded, open Pacifist. Click Open Package and then select the MacOSXUpdateCombo10.3.8.pkg (Inside the downloaded Image)
6) Once loaded, go to: System -> Library -> Extensions -> AND select: AppleOnboardAudio.kext
7) Click on AppleOnboardAudio.kext once to select it and then click the Install Button above. It will ask you to install, and click install. (Make sure Allow Admin Privileges is selected)
8) Once done, close Pacifist and open Onyx. This process will clear out the system cache to make sure the "older" AppleOnboardAudio.kext is out of the system.
9) In Onyx, go to Cleaning and make sure System and Kernel Caches is selected. Also, select Core Files and Temporary files too.
10) Once done, restart the computer, and go to the sound control panel and set your settings.
That is it, so far, it has worked perfectly for me!
Let us know how it works for you too
Thanks,
Paul

Hello Paul,
I know the Hosts don't like this, but this post is worthy of a gentle bump to see if it can help any one else with iSub issues.
Good catch Sir!

Hi, Paul.
As FYI: this is a deep hack. You should be aware that:
1. It may break other audio features in Mac OS X 10.4.
2. It may be undone by future Mac OS X Updates.
3. If future Mac OS X Updates are partial updates of the kext, applying updates may fail, or the resulting .kext may cause kernel panics.
Before you install future Mac OS X updates with this hack applied, I suggest you consider the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ.
Good luck!

Possible Slowness Solution For Mac In LR4.2RC

Hi all --
This might be a total red-herring, but after using LR4 for a while and experiencing the rotten slowness of it all on my MacBook Pro, I did some experimenting in LR4.2RC. I've written my findings up on my blog but I'll copy the solution here so you don't have to go digging.
Sidenote: for the benefit of the hardware nerds out there my main machine is a MacBook Pro Core i7 2.66GHz model (MacBookPro6,1), with a 512GB SSD, 8G RAM, running (at the moment) OS X 10.7.4. It’s not the most recent MacBook Pro, but it’s a 2010 model which with updates has no problems with anything else. My LR4 catalogue has about 110,000 images in it split into a hierarchy of Year -> Shoot -> Images.
The first thing I did was try and blitz the Preferences files. This has been known to work for Windows users, but of course the Mac version is different – at least that bit is. I’ll save you some time and tell you now that it didn’t do a dicky bird other than freak my copy of Lightroom out, so I ended up reinstating the plist files.
Then a friend suggested recreating the catalogue (cheers Gaz!). My LR4 catalogue came via a port from LR2 to LR3 over the past few updates. First thing I did was create a new catalogue and import everything from the old catalogue in to the new one via File -> Import From Another Catalog. It took a while but gave me a clean catalogue which sorta worked a bit better – still not massively fast, but faster.
The real paydirt came with Time Machine though. In common with a lot of Mac users I have a small external disk which I use to keep backups, handled by the OS. In addition to that there’s a sort-of journalling system which handles versions and Time Machine when the external disk isn’t connected (and incidentally will explain disk space discrepancies – you can read more about the phenomenon here).When I added ~/Library/Caches to the backup exclusions, LR4 was back to the speed I’d have expected.
To do this, click on your Time Machine icon (on the menubar, it’s the little clock with the arrow going backwards), and thenOptions on your Time Machine screen. It’ll allow you to exclude particular directories from the backup.
I can’t think of any particular downside to this as cache files are usually temporary, but I’m sure another Mac fanboi will correct me in the comments if this isn’t the case. As it is, it seems to have fixed it for me so far and I’ve been using Lightroom heavily for the past day or so. Whether it gets slower in time I don’t know and I’ll post an update if it does so. But I do hope this helps other frustrated Mac photogs out there!
Best wishes
Joel.

Joel!
This is fascinating and wonderful if it indeed works. I'm also going to try the exclude ~/Library/Caches tip and see if I get similar speed results. I'm finding that I have to quit out of Lightroom every few hours and relaunch when it gets bogged down to a less than happy place.
I'll report back in about a week with my findings.

How far is it possible to upgrade a Mac Pro mid-2010 to the maximum extract.

Hello
How far is it possible to upgrade a Mac Pro mid-2010 to the maximum performance. I would be interested how far one could come close to the performance of the new Mac Pro 2013, or is it hopeless.
My computer
Mac Pro
mid-2010
Processor 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 14 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC
Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB
Software OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
Please excuse my english is not the best because.

For what apps?
Okay, you have the slower 2.4GHz processors, most have found that MHz still rule and matter, meaning a 6-core 3.4GHz for some applications (most) was the best and the sweet spot.
So you could upgrade to a pair of 3.2GHz 4-core (cheapest) rather than splurge on two 6-core 3.34GHz (more expensive and more cores).
First thing to do, put the system on a 256GB Samsung 840 SSD.
For photoshop and graphics, invest in some more SSD ($US300 for 500GB) and put those on a PCIe SSD controller ($300 Sonnet Tempo Pro) and put Aperture/Lightroom on one, and use the 2nd SSD for scratch.
RAM: 24-32GB would probably help all but the more casusalist of user.
Tips and articles:
http://www.macperformanceguide.com head to the TOPICS main page and there are dozens of sections each a different area of upgrade and optimization for applications. Storage, memory, how to, use arrays, backup strategy.

Is it possible to connect a mac book pro via thunderbolt and a dvi switchbox (multiple computers) to a thunderbolt display?

Hi,
I'm planning to buy a thunderbolt display.Since I have not only apple computers with a thunderbolt port I wonder if it's possible to connect my mac book pro via thunderbolt and a DVI switchbox via a "mini displayport to DVI connector" to the thunderbolt display at the same time. Thunderbolt is a bus architecture. Thus there must be an ingoing and an outgoing port on the display. The rearview of the display I've seen so far don't show this:
If this is not possible then I must question the market chances of this product. Seems as if the product marketing guys exaggerated the launch of the thunderbolt technology.

How to connect windows laptop (vga) to thunderbolt display?
AHHH??!!!!!! Was that your original question?? I assumed you were trying to output FROM your computer (MacBook Pro w/ Thunderbolt) to the new display and then OUT to be the video source to a DVI switcher.
MB Pro w/TB ---> TB Display ---> mDP-to-DVI adapter ---> DVI switcher
So it seems as if it's not possible to use the thunderbolt display with the mini display port adapter to DVI you've mentioned.
I did not understand that you were trying to use other PC's into a switcher and then THAT Video source to connect INTO the TB display. If THAT is what you're trying to do, then NO.... You can NOT use the new TB Display to be used to display "FROM" a DVI switcher (and also can NOT be used to display from other Non-TB-Apple computers).
I've also called apple. The statement was that one needs a computer with osx 10.6.x in order to connect the thunderbolt display. That makes it impossible to hook a windows pc or older mac to the new and shiny thunderbolt display.
I wonder why apple doesn't state this in their technical descriptions...?
-ais-swiss
Actually, the state that information all over the Tech Specs on the Apple Store website.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC914LL/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
Here are two different statements from that webpage:
So yes.... other NON-Apple PC's (or non-TB devices) do Not have the Thunderbolt technology (hardware/software) to be able to communicate with the TB display or other TB devices.

'Sorry a serious error has occured that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project'. What is the solution? (Mac)

There is an error that says when I am open my project: 'Sorry a serious error has occured that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project'. What is the solution? (mac)

This happens to me all the time too. When I attempt to reopen, it makes a "copy of" my project. This is frustrating and happiness often.

Genius bar told me to erase the harddisk and install OSX Maverick again. This has not changed the problems with the system settings

You need to Repartition the drive as One partition which will erase all data from it and then reinstall OS X. then with the initial setup system you chose the language on the first screen that comes up. That sets the language for the whole system.
There is no other way of completely removing certain information created by a previous owner. this hold strue whether you are selling or give a Mac to someone.
To do the repartitioning you need to use the Online Internet Recovery system, if the Mac came with Lion 10.7 or above, or from the original system reinstall discs that came with it when it was new.

Is it possible to start intel mac in target mode from ppc mac ?

Hello all,
Is it possible to start intel mac in target mode from ppc mac ? If so does using target mode make ANY change at all to the target disk if user doesn't voluntariliy write stuff to target disk ?
Thanks in advance !

Yes, you can, but with some notes. Braby sent some data, I add some other.
Target Mode has two basic roles:
1. to turn a mac into an external drive and/or external optical drive (if it has one, until Air era, all had); you may use this way if your internal optical drive is damaged and you wish to use the optical unit of the other mac; or use it as a simple external disk for backup purposes or else.
2. to boot from a such-booted mac.
#1 is usable with any two macs disregarding whether they are both PPC, both intel, or combination PPC-intel, as the behavior is like any external disk drive or external optical drive.
#2 is impossible if you want to boot the other mac, they must be both intel or PPC, as you cannot use an intel-based mac as a boot mac for the other ppc-mac, and vice-versa.
So said and clarified, you may use, but not if you intend to boot the other one if you wish to use it for various purposes implying boot.

Is it possible to upgrade the Mac osx 10.5.11 dual 2.7 Speaking to the issues Such as Mac OS X 10.6

Is it possible to upgrade the Mac osx 10.5.11
dual 2.7
Speaking to the issues
Such as Mac OS X 10.6

There isn't a OSX 10.5.11. It looks like you are asking about how to upgrade from OSX 10.4.11 (as suggested in your profile) to 10.6 (or was this another typographical error and you meant 10.5?) on something with a dual 2.7 processor. If you are talking about a G5 or any G series Mac then you cannot upgrade further than OSX 10.5 Leopard (the forum in which you posted this question). Only Intel Macs can run 10.6 and greater.
It would help to know exactly which computer you are using, which exact operating system version it is using, and which one to which you wish to upgrade.

Is it possible to connect two Macs via USB ?

Is it possible to connect two Macs via USB just like Firewire back in the day via Target mode or is there something similar? I am asking this because about 2-3 years ago I would normally image Macs via Target Mode. I used to have a regular Macbook running 10.6 along with a customized-ready-to-go .dmg image saved on the Desktop. Whenever I needed to put that image into any Mac I would simply connect the two Macs via Firewire, I would then press "T" at startup which will get me in Target Mode, I would then see the disk appear in the desktop of the Mac I had the image. I would then copy that image to the T mode macbook using super duper. Can this still be done through USB with new models and if so will I also need to press T at startup ?

No, USB connection does not qualify for this, only firewire and thunderbolt, as I read (but cannot test, for the time being I have only one such mac around).
This is why the short series of alu MBs (2008) are not qualified for target mode either.
p.s. What ‘new models’ do you refer to?
