TS3048 Apple bluetooth keyboard issues with mac pro

Hi,
I have been using my keyboard with my mac for a while, but today I reopened the laptop and the keboard, had to pair the keyboard again because I started the computer before the device, the computer showed that the keyboard is connected and paired, but when I try to push the buttons(typing) nothing happens. Can any body help?

Could you use the camera icon to post a screenshot here of what you are seeing? Exactly which Hangul keyboard layout from Apple are you using?
When you talk about the "virtual keyboard", are you referring to the Keyboard Viewer?
OS X Yosemite: Use the Keyboard Viewer

Internal hard drive issue with Mac Pro

I work for two office that share information through a VPN. Each office has one Mac Pro being used as a server for data storage. The Pros have four internal hard drives (1TB each).
Hard drives in the Pro for OFFICE 1 were configured like so:
HD1 - OS/Boot drive
HD2 - Time Machine backup of HD1/DATA1/DATA2
DATA1 - Data storage
DATA2 - Data storage
Three weeks ago: Time Machine could not find HD2 and could not backup. I rebooted the machine and HD2 reappeared. However, after the reboot, DATA1 did not mount. I was unable to find DATA1 in Disk Utility. However, the drive could be accessed by all other Macs on the network. This machine was taken to the local Apple Store and we were told that HD2 was a bad drive and need to be replaced. We opted not to replaced the drive at this time and turned Time Machine backups off. We haven't had any problems with DATA1 since. (NOTE: During the weeks prior, the client machines intermittently lost connection with DATA1 and would have to reconnect)
Last week: OFFICE 2 - Mac Pro hard drives configured the same as OFFICE 1; however, HD2 was not used for TM backups. TM was turned on and set to backup HD1/DATA1/DATA2 to HD2 (exactly like OFFICE 1). The next day, TM could not find HD2 and backups stopped running. I rebooted the machine, HD2 reappeared, but we did not restart the TM backups.
Today: OFFICE 2 client machines have experienced intermittent disconnecting of DATA1.
I wasn't extremely concerned with the situation at OFFICE 1 as these Pros are almost five years old and in constant use. We plan on purchasing an external drive for the TM backups. HOWEVER, with a similar situation now being experienced in OFFICE 2, I am perplexed.
Could both machine be experiencing hard drive failures weeks apart? They were both purchased and installed at the same time.
Is there a known issue with TM and internal drives?
One difference between the two machines: OFFICE 1 is running OS X 10.8.5; OFFICE 2 runs 10.6.8
Any suggestions/help is appreciated. Thanks!

Relying on TimeMachine has some issues, along with only having one, I use at least two swapping TimeMachine so that they rotate AND I clone every drive (volume actually) so I can swap drives if need be, especially useful for t he system but good for any drive.
Power issues in t he buildings?
There are some programs that will scan for and report and./or attempt to reassign a failing sector ("fail" is qualitative, is 10 write failures a fail? then the 9th is not but it is a "weak sector.") Some run in the background.
Mirror can be 2 or 3 ( I prefer 3, that way if one fails I STILL have a mirror array in place) where any failure is not acceptable, AND where the array data is backed up usually - less important when using a three-drive configurations.
How old, when last initialized (zero), and is it showing spare blocks being used? that last is the most indicative of failed drive.
Rare but a bad SATA cable or power (seeing how the cables are tucked away) is only way generally for multiple failures in same drive bay or computer. Note: early on in 2006-7 there were reports of some customers having motherboard and trouble with a drive bay , and t he problems showed up early.
Often though it is NVRAM or SMC related issue trigged by something else, a USB cable or device that is faulty, even a PCIe controller that is the culprit. And replacing cable, keyboard, device, and resetting SMC and NVRAM (often NVRAM needed to be done multiple times, but never keep resetting SMC) - unplugged and when you connect back up, do not install anything other than system, keyboard and mouse and see if that helps.
With a drive, likely the drive in 85% or more, is fine, but the directory is not, or it needs to be erased to rebuild all the system partitions.
1TB is small for TimeMachine. 350% of the amount of data, and always have free space for a full backup set of all the data. T.M. will try and prefers to automatically backup any and everything plugged in and connected, rather than my preference which is ASK FIRST to add a drive to TM backup set, otherwise leave it out. 600GB of data and system would mean 2.5TB drive, maybe 2TB minimum.

Apple Bluetooth keyboard broken (with technical sollution)

Hello,
I've got a bluetooth apple keyboard (the Dutch alu small version).
Using rechargeable batteries I sometimes have to replace them.
When I do replace the batt. the keyboard won't work, no green led comes up.
also tried the caps-lock to check, but this also won't light-up.
So, Thinking it was the batteries, tried some new ones, and they work.
At this time I thought also the problems would be the batteries, but it wasn't.
I've change the batteries a few times this year, and sometimes the keyboard worked, and sometime it didn't. Until a few days after warranty (23-dec-08) it stopt working.
I've tried changing batteries over and over again.
I've checked the voltage of the batteries, and they where fine.
A store told me, no warranty, buy a new one.
So first I wan't to know what the problem is, so I disassembled the keyboard and made a few pictures so you would also know how to.
The problem is: The power of the batteries never reaches the circuit-board.
I can disassemble a few things, but I can't get out the main-problem part.
I think it's the springy thing in the batterie compartment, which does not give through the + voltage, the - was okay (checked with resistanse measuring).
I've read a few problems with this keyboard..... What should I do next?
The keyboard costed 80,- Euro's...
I would like to change it for an usb version as I don't trust the bluetooth's anymore because of this (I found) mechanical error in design.

An update about the broken keyboard.
I called the Dutch Aple store helpdesk phone number. The person was very friendly, asked me about some products that I owned and tried to solve it via the normal procedures and asked for an exeption.
But like normal procedures: The keyboard was 15 months young, so 3 month over warranty
They did not took the exeption for a keyboard of 80,- euros.
I told them I was happy with a cabled keyboard (half cheaper for apple, and because I don't trust the bluetooth inside wiring).
It would cost apple almost nothing for a wired keyboard.
In a few years I bought a mac-pro, and 2 macbooks, I thought they would help me out over a few euro's.
Next step:
The friendly person tried to call Customer Relations Ireland, but they were close at the moment I'll have to call back tomorrow.
Backup step:
Cut open the alu part which blocks my way of repairing the keyboard.
Will take some time, but the fix will cost a few drops of soldering stuff.
At least this approach boosts the trust in online shopping
via the apple store I must say. Now, let's hope they can help me out.

Windows 7 Install Issues with Mac Pro

I have Mac Pro with Windows XP SP3 installed with Boot Camp on a separate, dedicated 250GB HD.
I purchased an upgrade version of Windows 7 Home Premium. I hoped to install the 64-bit version. I upgraded, per Boot Camp I&S Guide, Boot Camp to version 3.1. After Boot Camp upgrade, I mounted the Windows 7 64-bit installation disk. Since the Windows disk did not open automatically, I then attempted to open the Setup.exe file but got the following error message –
“D:/setup.exe is not a valid Win 32 application.”
I suspect the Boot Camp 3.1 upgrade was for the 32-bit Windows XP system currently installed and this caused Windows 7 (64-bit) not to open.
If my suspicion is correct, would upgrading to Boot Camp 3.1 (64-bit) cause problems with the currently installed Windows XP? Any advice would be appreciated.

I have since attempted to boot from the Windows 7 install disk by using both the OS 10.6.3 System Preferences/Startup Disk and from within Windows XP using the Boot Camp Control Panel. In both cases, all I saw was a black screen with a “Select CD-ROM Boot Type” and flashing cursor. No keyboard input was possible.
If anyone encounters this problem, go to the Boot Camp/Installation and Storage discussion and search for “Select CD-ROM Boot Type”. Hal Jay Greene has an excellent article here titled “Select CD-ROM Boot Type Error installing Windows 7 in Boot Camp walkthrough” dated Mar 20, 2010 that walks one through the process of creating a boot disk for installing Windows 7 x64. Two minor comments on his discussion. John Anderson’s blog is at www.AndersonsHatch.com (note extra s) and Imgburn can be downloaded free from www.imgburn.com.
I used Mr. Greene’s procedure and the resultant boot disk loaded Windows 7 correctly.
Unfortunately, a new issue arose. Installing Windows 7 over Windows XP requires a clean install that eliminates all Boot Camp installations. After installing Windows 7, I attempted to load Boot Camp by inserting the Mac SL installation disk and clicking on Setup in the Boot Camp folder. The result was this error message: “Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model”. Fortunately, there is a procedure that worked for me, and my MacPro, to bypass this error message. It can be found near the bottom of this article http://blog.andersonshatch.com/2009/01/11/windows-7-x64-on-a-macbook-pro-guide/ on John Anderson’s blog.

Video display issues with Mac Pro and GeForce 7300?

I'm just wondering whether anyone else has experienced any video strangeness with their Mac Pros with GeForce 7300 cards? Basically, twice now I've had the mouse cursor stop responding and the entire screen turn black, then a second later everything's back to normal (with the cursor moving and the display back). I seem to recall a similar issue on my Windows PC with a Quadro FX 1100 card, so I'm hoping it's just a video driver issue.
Bryan

I am not sure if its the monitor, the MP, or the video card, but, I have had my computer completely replaced after reporting to my local Apple Store about my G5 fans over heating and my monitor either not being able to wake or refusing to sleep. I called AppleCare and did all the normal trouble shooting but they said take it in to store. But now that I have a brand new MP 3.0 I am getting the same issue but no fan noise. I have a 23Cinima HD (the strore said it was fine when they had both my computer and monitor in) but last night after hours of inactivity the monitor had the screen saver on but didn't got to sleep. I then put in to sleep but when I got up this morning I couldn't wake it up. When I got my new computer (3 days ago) I didn't migraite any of my old stuff. I have been slowly reinstalling all my software and updated anything before I install anything else as an added attempt to not have any bad files. I have 2 gig of ram and 500 hd with the 7300 card. I am at a lost I checked and rechecked all my setting. The only other thing I have connected is my airport extreme base.
Any idea's anyone?
Ops one last issue, I have blown my apartment circut breaker three time while attempting to start the new PM and once it did it when I was trying to wake it just by tapping the space bar. Is it the computer being more power hunger?

Display Issues with Mac Pro 1.1 HELP!!

I have a Mac Pro 1,1:
Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro1,1
Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Total Number Of Cores: 4
L2 Cache (per processor): 4 MB

Boot ROM Version: MP11.005D.B00
SMC Version: 1.7f10
Running OSX 10.6.3
I'm on my second graphics card [ATI Radeon HD 2600] after having issues with the original [NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT]. The issue with the NVIDIA card was that, at times, it would display digital artifacts, glitches, distortion and freeze up the system forcing me to have to do a hard shut down. I found many reports of similar issues with that card and the Mac Pro 1,1's.
When I replaced it with the ATI the problem went away for 6 months and now IT"S BACK.
So, are there any particular graphics cards that work OK with the Mac Pro 1,1? I don't want to waste my money again only to encounter the same issue!
I'm also contemplating getting a new Mac all together.
Please advise, I've read many threads with this issue and they all seem to point to the same deal: replace the card. I can't afford to keep replacing graphics cards.

The 2600XT required 10.5.2+ and while it may 'look' like a G5 the Mac Pro is not. G5 refers to IBM PowerPC based, not Intel Xeon EFI based.
You're running 10.6.3, might want to update your profile itself.

Serious display issues with Mac Pro

Hello
I have a 5 or 6 years old Mac Pro G5 with a ATI Radeon 9600 XT video card. I have a lot of problem properly connecting a display to that computer. Here is a small list of all the irregularities I witnessed :
- When I connect an Apple Studio Display, the computer detect two displays (when looking at the display preference, one is labeled "VGA Display" and another labeled "Color LCD"), both at the same resolution and working as a two screens setup (as seen with Space) when not mirrored
- I can't have the computer working with an Apple Cinema Display. The computer will not boot with that screen plugged in. The normal loading screen appeared, then just before the login screen, it goes black and eventually the computer stop.
- The screen stay black when I connected it while the computer is running.
- I have a couple of those G5, so I tried switching the video card with a working one (same model), and it didn't change anything to the screen problem.
I guess it sums up all the symptoms I can see. If anyone as a suggestion on what might be the problem, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

You really should post this in the PowerMac forum, since it's a G5 and not a Mac Pro. All the Mac Pros are intel based.

Any known issues with Mac Pro supply?

On the 22nd Nov I ordered my 8 core Mac Pro with 4 x 1TB internal drives 8 GB Ram, ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB, and Raid card.
At the time Apple Store was showing 5 working days for dispatch.
Here we are on 2nd December and although the store still shows 5 days, the Mac hasn't dispatched yet.
I called Apple support and a man called David said he'd find out what was happening +(I thought that's what support was for - surely they should know)+ and call me back.
Three hours later I called Apple support again and a man called Daniel told me that "Order Management" had replied to David but they didn't know what had happened to the order.
He suggested it may have "dropped out of the system".
I have to say, I'm extremely disappointed with this. Obviously, I'm very anxious to get a new computer +(chiefly for video editing)+ and I don't expect to pay over 4,000 GBP +(about 6,600 US Dollars)+ and have no communication whatever - and then when I'm frustrated enough to telephone for help, find that Apple have taken my money OK but don't know anything about the stuff the money was for.
Any ideas anyone?

Custom BTO taking longer due to configuration?
It's probably due in part to Thanksgiving; I find the online order status is always strange or full of surprises in its estimates and goes from 5 days to shipped or gets held up (maybe they ran out of widgets? the boat was full? weather kept the plane from departing?)
And yes, I get anxious, and end up paying overnight just to get the whole experience and waiting over as soon as possible too~!
And maybe only a super or level 2 can look into someone else's message queue.
There really are shortages of GPU chips with the ATI 5xxx rollout right now, holidays and other factors.
Hint: not to put salt into a wound, not my intention, but the Apple RAID card is not well loved, useful but only because there aren't many choices for an internal Hard RAID controller; plus you really do have to pay for Apple drives (firmware compatibility). Most get one drive and buy those things separately.
So BTO like yours might indeed take longer than estimates go.

Nvidea GeForce 7300 GT and ati hd 5870 issues with mac pro and dual monitors etc

I installed an ati 5870 and fcp 7 wont run, it says no vram. so I reinstalled the NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT. This card however doesnt support my 46" sony bravia client monitor via vdi to hdmi (with adapter) is there anyway to make it do that (patch, driver, tweek to card)? also what other card should I get that will support the 30" apple display and the sony. I have another system luckily thats newer that I work on with clients, but I dont want to foresake the other mac pro yet. is the 5770 going to work? Please let me know what you think, I greatly appreciate it. Also my system profile doesnt say I have pci express 2.0 on either my old or new mac pros.
why are there no patches for this card, updates, drivers? nada. let me know. thank you.

*Is it possible to run the factory NVIDIA 7300 GT side-by-side with an ATI Radeon HD 4870 to achieve a three monitor setup?*
Yes with OSX. There may be problems with Boot Camp.

Power issues with Mac Pro (early 2009)

I have a problem that seems to be related to power issues. I have to disconnect the power cord for a few hours, then, I connec it again and turn on the mac. I have replaced the power supply (by a certified technician) and the problem seemed solved. Nonetheless I added a fourth disc drive and the problem presented again. I have two video cards a 20" cinema display and a 24" LED display (Apple) connected to a GT120. 10 GB RAM.
Every time I connect the computer there is an Inrush alarm in the UPS I have it connected to.
Does anybody else have had with this issue?

As Allan mentioned, the UPS is way too small for the task. I've seen mention of folks who have 1300's that are fine, but target recommendation (and what I plan to get soon) is 1500. Also, make sure you don't have a laser printer plugged into the same UPS.

Why won't my Apple Bluetooth keyboard hair with my iPad?

I have an iPad 3 and a silver Bluetooth Apple keyboard and it is always very difficult to pair them together anyone have any ideas?
It's very frustrating and I will buy a different keyboard if I need to? I waste a lot of time simply trying to pair, instead of getting work completed.
I love Apple products very much, this is an ongoing issue however.
Thanks for any thoughts!

Try cycling power on the keyboard when doing the pairing.

Help for audio Issues with Mac Pro

My mac book Pro 15"(i5, 2010 model, OSX maveric), is having audio fluctuations. Whenever I try to play audio or video files, the volume fluctuates and the audio symbol on the display fades out and comes back again frequently. any solutions to this problem

Aurvana Bluetooth Pairing Issues with Mac OSX

Have Creative Aurvana Gold headphones and they pair with iOS devices pretty easily; however, on my Mac (OSX Mavericks latest) they now refuse to pair/stay paired. I've tried deleting the device from the Mac and re-pairing several times. Also rebooting, etc. Nothing seems to work.
The initial pairing goes perfectly and then after 20-30 seconds or so the connection drops. Battery is full. Tried powering the headphones on/off a million times, rebooting countless times, etc.
In Mac OSX Console I see this set of messages every time:

Sometimes the headphones will stay paired if audio is playing at the time they are paired, but I can't be certain that's the reason.
UPDATE: While they are connected I can't really listen to anything / play videos. YouTube just hangs for example. And the console now shows a ton of these messages:

the headphones are connected: I see a steady blue blinking light on the multifunction button on the earpiece.
What can I do to fix this?

It's a third-party application. I suggest you contact the developer for technical support. These forums only provide support for Apple products.
The application may simply be incompatible with the version of OS X you are running.
