PowerMac Pro and vpn

Hello,
I have a 6 month old PowerMac Pro. Unfortunately this computer refuses to establish a reliable vpn connection to my office. All the other gear I have (powerBook, iPad and iPhone) does it.
The PowerMac Pro is erratic. Sometimes he connects but then all of a sudden after two or three minutes the vpn connection is beeing closed. The other day it works for hours....
I am realy desperate to get a solution for that....
All the best
Peter

    Result is not getting ping. but vpn is connected good.

    I'm no expert, but do you have ICMP allowed in your tunnel?

    I have moved from a G5 Powermac to an Intel Mac Pro and selectively porting over items from a backup hard drive.
    How can I access and use documents and drawings created on the PC based computer ?

    Clarisworks, you need Appleworks, which will only work with Mac OS X10.6.8 or earlier.  See this tip if you must go newer.  Mac Pros with newer hardware configuration than July 20, 2011 can't use Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier without this tip and then it would be Mac OS X Server.  I'm not sure if the new black Mac Pro supports that configuration or not.
    iPhoto, there is an iPhoto for all versions of Mac OS X.
    iTunes, there is an iTunes for all versions of Mac OS X.  Note with iTunes versions 11 and later, which are needed for syncing with iOS 7 or or later, you will lose coverflow, if you liked that feature.  Sadly you can't run an older version of iTunes from within Mac OS X 10.9 or later.
    Sketchup: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/60107 shows the versions that will work with intermediate Mac OS X versions, and this shows the latest version: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/36208 be sure to click on the operating system you choose to use.
    GIF - Viewing GIFs Apple's Preview can do that.  Editing them, I like http://www.lemkesoft.com/ Graphicconverter.
    DMG is able to be opened by all versions of Mac OS X.  This are just "disk images" which store programs on a virtual disk that will open when double clicked.    Frequently you'll find the installer of the said program inside.  To find out if the program itself is compatible with 10.7 through 10.9, see http://www.roaringapps.com/
    Otherwise see the resources on:

  • Huge artifacts with PowerMac G5 and Radeon 9800 Pro (Could be 10.4.11)

    Hi!
    During installation, my graphics got all screwed up. You can see a screenshot of what's going on at this link:
    http://www.gchoquette.com/files/Picture2.png
    I think you guys can see it too. I'm actually writing on the defective computer, so it's hard for me to see what's in the screenshot.
    Here's what I did so far. I tried removing half of the RAM first, then the second half, the problem persist. I rebooted on a different system, it's still there (so not software). I tried Hardware Test utility, it says everything is fine. I unplugged the Video Card, cleaned it a little along with the connectors, nothing.
    Here's what we know. It happened DURING the update to 10.4.11 (not after I rebooted). I'm pretty sure I can take screenshots of it, so it's not simply in the connectors to the monitors. It happens on both my monitors (also when I unplug one of them).
    You guys have any idea of what I can do or what is going on?
    Thanks!

    I have a flashed 9800 pro and I've noticed that if I turn the computer on before the monitor, I'l get nearly identical artifacts. If I turn the monitor on before the computer all's well. Maybe its for flashed cards only. Good luck.

  • Airport connection probs with Mac Pro and 10.4.8  too.

    This prob is not just related to iMacs or MacBooks as published in the knowledge base doc. I have exactly the same prob with my 2.66 GHz Mac Pro. I have to reconnect this beast to my wlan router manually every time.
    PLZ Apple fix this asap!

    I had a similar problem which I've fixed!
    I have four machines here which can connect to my Netgear DG834N via Aiport. (I say can because they normally connect via ethernet.) My MacBook Pro always used to be fine when connected wirelessly but recently, not aware of any changes I've made, it connects for about 10 seconds then disconnects. All other machines are fine and hold the connection.
    This is what I tried before finding my solution:
    1) Deleted all references to the network in the keychain and remade them.
    2) Created another user to try
    3) Changed channels on the router even though I can't see any neighbour's networks.
    4) Made sure computer and router were up to date with firmware/software.
    I'm assuming that it has to be a computer problem as the PowerMac, iMac and iPod Touch have no issues at all. However, the cure was in the router.
    I run with SSID broadcast turned off, WPA2 encryption and MAC address filtering. Allowing broadcast of the SSID cures my problem. Turn it off and the computer connects then drops it ten seconds later. Turn broadcast on and it maintains the connection. I've tried it all afternoon, leaving it connected for about 30 minutes at a time before turning SSID broadcast off again. Works every time! Broadcast SSID - fine, no broadcast - drops after ten seconds.
    Now, if only I knew why! And why only the laptop?

  • What are the pros and cons using ospf as the PE/CE protocol

    pros and cons using ospf as the PE/CE Protocol

    Hi,
    Well in short,
    pros:
    well deployed protocol with good user experience
    fast convergence
    no redistribution required on ce side
    cons;
    type 1 & 2 routes (O) from one site are known as type 3 summary routes (OIA) in the other site
    you need a sham link configured on the pe routers to get the routes as type1&2 at each remote site
    If was deploying mpls vpn, i would use either ospf or bgp as pe/ce protocol.

  • MacBook Pro and Final Cut Studio 2

    Hello, all. I currently have Final Cut Studio 1 (with Final Cut Pro 5, DVD Studio Pro 4, Motion 2, LiveType 2, Soundtrack Pro, and Compressor 2). I have an old PowerMac G4 from 2003, which Motion doesn't work on (and DVD Studio Pro doesn't run so great on, either - I haven't worked with Soundtrack Pro, LiveType, or Compressor too much). I'm thinking about buying a new MacBook Pro, and I'm wondering if all of FCS 1 (and especially Motion) would work on either the 13" or 15" models.
    If I got a 13", here would be the specs:
    2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    8GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB
    250GB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400 rpm
    SuperDrive 8x (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
    NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics
    If I got a 15", here would be the specs:
    3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    8GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB
    500GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm
    SuperDrive 8x (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
    NVIDIA GeForce 9400M + 9600M GT with 512MB
    Anyone have any experience with running an older version of FCS - or even FCS 1 - on a setup like the ones I described above?
    Thanks, everyone,
    Kevin

    Short answer: 13", no, 15", yes

  • MACBook Pro and Aperture Academic. Are they compatable?

    will a MACBook Pro and aperture work together. The software states that the hardware is inadequate?

    Since the push is on to release a Universal Binary, and the new MacBook Pro is the only Intel Pro machine out, it seems the answer is onviously yes.
    In the demo/preview of the Aperture 1.1 I went to on Tuesday, it was noted by the presenter that one upgrades to Ap 1.1 by having 1.0 installed, then running Software Update.
    He then acknowledged that the original Aperture 1.0 installer disk would not normally install on the newer MBP - "we will have a way to allow an initial install on your MBP. then you will immediately run the Software Update to upgrade Aperture to 1.1 and thus the native Intel code."
    It should also be noted that even under Rosetta the MBP rocks - a Photoshop CPU intensive test showed it only about 33% slower than the dual 2.0 G5 Powermacs!. And at the demo the presenter hinted that we would be very pleased with Aperture 1.1 performance on the new Intel chips.
    I just bought one on an impulse purchase yesterday for a photo trip in April.
    But everyone buying a MacBook Pro for Aperture use should be sure to get the 256 MB VIDEO CARD!

  • PROS and CONS of running FCP on NEW iMACS?

    Hi gang...
    It's a sad day -- I've been running fcp 5.1.4 using Tiger on my PowerMac G5 (dual core 2.3GHz, 2.5GB of memory) for years now -- few real problems besides operator error.
    All has been good.
    Along comes a client shooting XDCAM footage and suddenly I'm feeling VERY behind the times. I'm unable to edit with this codec since it's not compatible with fcp 5.0. And since my G5 is pre-Intel processor, I'm unable to upgrade to fcp 6 or higher (is this accurate?)
    So what are the pros and cons of purchasing one of the new iMacs to run fcp 7? Although my G5 was installed with a DeckLink card, I never did any external monitoring using an NTSC monitor. Most of the stuff I'm doing is long form programming, straight cuts/dissolves, minimal graphics. I'm creating alot of content for the web, delivering some (non-broadcast) masters on dvd.
    Do the iMacs have external monitoring capabilities? (I'm under the impression they don't)
    Am I really at the point where I need to purchase new hardware? (I've been so happy with my G5.)
    What will be my minimum investment, and is the Macmini ($599) a viable option?
    And finally, does Joni love Chachi?
    Thanks

    FCS3 (FCP7) is only supported on intel processors. FCS2 (FCP6) runs fine on G5s.
    iMacs do not have external monitoring capabilities beyond using firewire out for DV. I don't know how the mini-dvi port works with something like the original Matrox MXO. It may work fine.
    Still, there is no way to hook up esata drives, replace the video card with something that supports Motion or Color or add any one of dozens of nifty bells and whistles.
    The mac mini is a poor choice. Lousy graphics support and NO expansion capabilities.
    Get a MacPro.

    All Mac Pro's ever made have shipped with gigabit ethernet.  The last non-gigabit tower desktop Apple made was the very first generation PowerMac G4's back in 1999.
    Similarly, all Time Capsules have been gigabit ethernet as well - never been one that was not.

    First, did you use Setup or Migration Assistant? That can happen when coming from a PowerMac or sometimes even from another (Intel) Mac.
    Second, wait for the next version of Final Cut due very soon to ship (may have to wait for the ".1" of course to clean up any early issues.

    There are a few apps that are better.  I think you can run multiple instances of Handbrake for one.
