Retina 5K display: can I use this with my MacPro 2006 Quad 8 core?

Dear Community
I have a MacPro early 2008 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon; ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB: 20-inch DVI (1680 x 1050).
Is it possible to upgrade to the new 5K Retina Display?
Regards
Steve

Steve ~ There is no new Apple 5K Retina Display as such, i.e. an Apple 5K Retina monitor to connect to a Mac Pro. There is a new iMac with Retina 5K display, but my understanding is that it cannot be used as a monitor. And if Apple were to produce a new Retina 5K version of their current Apple Thunderbolt Display (which is a monitor), I doubt a 2006 or 2008 Mac Pro could drive it.

    my iPhoto icon has a cross over it, when i open it, it You have “iPhoto” 9.2.1. you can't use this with this version of OSX? it used to work ?what's gone wrong?

    iPhoto 9.2.3 is incompatible with MacOS 10.9.3 Mavericks. If you are running Mavericks on your system you need to update iPhoto to 9.5.1. Only, the problem is, that this version is no longer available at the App Store.
    The easiest way to get a compatible iPhoto version in that case would be to upgrade to Yosemite, MacOS X 10.10, and then download the most recent iPhoto version from the AppStore, iiPhoto 9.6, like LarryHN suggested.
    If you cannot download iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.6 post back.

  • Bento software- can I use this with OS 10.4?

    Someone suggested I try a software called Bento, but I've been checking the technical specs and it appears that I can't use it with OS 10.4. The minimum requirement is OS 10.5. Does anyone know if this is true? If so, can you recommend a similar software that I can use with OS 10.4?
    Thanks!

    Info Genie was a flat file database program as I recall. For something similar you might look at iData or iData Lite, Quick Tables (may not work on Tiger,) iList Data (relational,) EagleData. These are all pure database programs.
    Notes Guru is a database program specifically for notes. If that's what you need then it may be fine for you. But if you have more generic needs or specialized needs please say what those are since it makes it easier to recommend something. Or you can simply search the MacUpdate and VersionTracker data for suitable choices you can download and try out.

  • I have a craft cd that can be used with a pc or Mac os-9.  Can I use this with my snow leopard 10.6 ?

    I have a craft cd that can be used with a pc or Mac 0s-9.  Can I use this cd on my IMacG5 10.6.8?

    Pop in the CD and try, however it is unlikely because Classic App's will not run in Snow Leopard.
    Also note: that only 2006  Intel iMac's or later can run Snow Leopard and not per 2006 G5 iMac's.

  • Control Value:Set [Variant] Method - how can i use this with strict type definitions?

    I want to pass default values to a strict type definition from a mainVI to a subVI, but I'm not allowed to use the "Control Valueet [Variant] Method" invoke node to do it.  How else can I achieve this?
    thanks,
    Z

    Hi Z,
    If you use strict type defintion references you can use Call by reference Node. Depending on the connector pane for the subvi which is referenced you just wire your data to the corresponding terminals. I attach an easy example which dynamically opens and writes to an arbitary number of a template.
    Hope it helps

  • BT Hub 2.0 - Can I use this with different ISP?

    I use TalkTalk as my ISP and have recently had a BT engineer call-out due to my very low BB speed.  As my master socket is in the lounge dowstairs and I want the PC upstairs the BT man suggested I switch to wireless.
    Bought the BT Hub 2.0 on recommendation, but have now read that it can only be used when BT is the ISP.
    Is this correct and is there anyway around it?

    The BT Homehub can only be used with BT Broadband, it is possible to "flash the firmware" to unlock it to other ISPs, but this is not really a simple task.
    Why not contact talk talk and tell them you are thinking of leaving, I am sure they will do you a deal and send you a new wireless router, or you could always get one from that well known on line auction website.

    !! WARNING !!
    about the September 2012
    "Security Update 2012-004"
    If you've got "Mail.app" in a folder OTHER THAN the root "Applications" folder,
    MOVE "MAIL.APP" TO THE APPLICATIONS FOLDER
    **BEFORE** INSTALLING THE "004" UPDATE!!
    Because *IF* you use OSX's integrated Software Update app from the Apple menu to do the "004" updating, and *IF* your Mail.app is NOT in the Applications folder, then buddy, you've got some sitdown fixit time ahead of ya and/or some internet tie-up time downloading the "004" update file itself.
    Been through it all, already.  In fact, just got done getting my Mail back up & running. And I tried everything short of attempting to unpacking my "Mail.pkg" receipt file using... whatever... even Pacifist couldn't get it out. So that fixit "Plan D" died quick. And I'm not savvy enough to use Terminal commands to do "Plan E," so that SUDO stuff was my brick wall.
    So I compressed my entire "Mail" subdirectory that contain all my emails, for safekeeping during the required surgery, or whatever would work, leaving the original Mail directory where it was. In case something bad happened in all my fixit whatevers, the one thing I *didn't* want to cross paths with was a hosed Library -> Mail folder. Then I'd be pssd. But I can wipe out that ZIP now 'cause all's well now. After 6 hrs of downloading thru a mobile broadband hotspot running at only 14KB/sec speed due to my having gone over my T-Mobile hotspot plan's bandwidth amount (throttled-down after reaching the limit, tho not cut off completely. Kinda nice, but it's a huge speed drop).
    I tried moving the two Mail.app versions around, compressing them & then trashing the original so they wouldn't be recognized, blabla, even booted my Mac in Safe Mode & reinstalled the "MacOSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) Update Combo.dmg" update file, which in the past has fixed many problems. But after restarting, not this one.
    Like a dummy who ignored knowing better, I had my Mail.app in a folder other than the Applications folder, with only an alias to that being in the Applications folder. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. The updater don't see that as nuthin special or useful.
    So if you've got, like I've got, "old" icons for Mail.app (v4.5) in your Finder toolbar & in your Dock that all point to "Mail.app v4.5" in whatever folder you've got that in, other than in the Applications folder (where Apple apparently REQUIRES that it be located, and ONLY there, at least for OSX updating purposes), then after you download & autorun that "004" updater using Software Update, NONE of your pre-existing Mail icons will work. And MOST aggravatingly, **NOR** will your brand-new "Mail.app v4.6" work that came out of the "004" updating installation.  So basically, your Mail.app's... all of 'em.... are hosed. But only if you run the "004" update without your "Mail.app v4.5" being located in your Applications folder and ONLY in your Applications folder. And duplicates of Mail.app, scattered around your HDD??  Always a problem with many Apple apps.... The Apple software engineers apparently like 'em to be in the Applications folder, and in ONLY there, and ONLY the latest version, and ONLY 1 single copy of each on your entire HDD. They just don't seem to stress that enough, it appears. Kind of an oversight for them to not emphasize that, IMO...
    My recommendation for this particular September 2012 "004" update:
    If you run Software Update, and if you see the "Security Update 2012-004" listed as available for download, UNCHECKMARK IT.  DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT USING SOFTWARE UPDATE !  Instead, download the actual update file itself.
    Same thing, only a different way of doing it. Most importantly, you'll be skipping the auto-installation that Software Update performs.
    AND you'll have that update file on your HDD for future fixits, should a nasty "unfixable" problem come up.
    First, #1. Do a filename search for "Mail" (Option-Command-Spacebar). Scroll down to where the "Apps" are located in the list under the "Kind" column heading. First, find your Mail.app that's v4.5. Get that bugger into your Applications folder if it's not already there. Next, Trash all other "Mail.app" apps you see in that same list that you may have elsewhere on your HDD.
    #2. Go here: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586
    And download the actual "004" DMG update file: "SecUpd2012-004.dmg"
    And of course, it's a biggie.... 270MB... so watching grass grow may be involved here if you've got a slow connection (go to a MacDonalds & do it, like I shoulda done).
    3. After downloading, I'd recommend closing down all apps, emptying the Trash, and restarting.
    Then, after restarting, run Disk Utility's "Repair Disk Permissions."
    Then, doublecheck that the Mail.app version 4.5 is in your Applications folder.
    THEN fire up & install "SecUpd2012-004.dmg."
    Reboot.
    After the reboot, your Mail.app version 4.5 in the Applications folder will have become Mail.app version 4.6 in the Applications folder, and all will be well again.
    And you can dump that zipped-up "Username -> Library -> Mail" folder then, too.
    Happy Mac'in!

  • How do you set up multiple users? Netscape use to let me choose which profile to start. Can I do this with Firefox and can I have email linked to each individual user/login? How?

    Netscape use to let me choose and create new profiles. after clicking on the icon for netscape i was prompted for which user profile i wanted. can i do this with firefox? also, each user profile was linked with its respective email account. can i do this through firefox as well? I need help. i have tried setting up firefox before and since i couldn't accomplish this i had given up but netscape is so old and most sites cause it to crash, i need a solution. i have 2 main profiles and 2 different email addresses. any advice or help, even not firefox related would be great

    Firefox doesn't have the same type of interface for the Profile Manager that Netscape did. You might want to look at SeaMonkey ''(which uses the same Mozilla Gecko code as Firefox has)''.

    You can change the email address of one's appleID...
    I'd recommend changing moms email to yours to get a good backup on the Mac
    Then switch mom's back to hers
    Then change your account to the same email you used.
    I've done something similar when I needed to update my Apple account (one ID changing email addresses and phone)
