Windows 7 too slow in MacPro Mid 2012

Hi Gurus,
I have installed Windows 7 Home 64bit (by using boot camp) in Mac Book Pro Mid 2012 (OSX 10.7). I do not have any issues while installing, Windows 7 Instalation was completed successfully and Apple Drivers also.
After boot it is running very very slow (ex: Install Office 2007 took 60 mins, IE open 1 or 2 mins), I can not work in wondow7.
Please guys help me out.
Thanks
Reddys

I'm experiencing exactly the same. Found some articles about re-burning the DVD but it hasn't helped.
My suspicion is that the BIOS (or mac equivalent) does not support booting 64bit OS. I remember trying to force OSX Leopard to boot 64bit and it wouldn't work. I can't recall the exact issue, but I suspect its similar.
I am installing Windows 7 Ultimate x64 in a Fusion VM - but not bootcamp - just a regular old VM. So far that is fine. Its not done yet but it is loading.
It may be as simple as a BIOS update - but as far as I know - there are none for my Xeon 3GhZ based system.
oh well.

    First, you can install Microsoft's Security Essentials in the Win 7 VM and keep it up-to-date. Second, you can turn off Sharing in Fusion's System Settings to keep the VM environment separate from your Mac. Third, you can look into Sophos Anti-Virus http://www.sophos.com/en-us/products/free-tools/sophos-antivirus-for-mac-home-ed ition/download.aspx for the Mac host.

  • MacPro (Mid 2012), does it work with a TITAN 6GB ?

    I have a MacPro (Mid 2012) and would like to change my video card that came with it. The new video card is a Titan with 6Gb.
    Can you help me and inform what I need to buy with this new video card ?   (adapters, conectors, does my MacPro has enough power capacity ?)
    I will use an Apple Cinema Display 24" with thunderbolt conector.
    Thanks

    MacPro (Mid 2012)
    I will use an Apple Cinema Display 24" with thunderbolt connector.
    If you really have a ThunderBolt display (as opposed to the Mini DisplayPort version of the same display) it cannot be made to work on a non-ThunderBolt Mac. There are no known work-arounds.

  • No real LEFT klick on Touchpad with windows 7 / 8 on a mid 2012 Macbook Pro

    hello Apple-user.
    i installed bootcamp 5.1 on my macbook pro (mid 2012) for a Dualboot with Windows 7 or 8 (with both the same problem).
    Everything works under windows except for one Thing : the Mousepad.
    On the internet you can find thousands of amounts on the right button but non for the LEFT button.
    First Thing : i hate tapping!
    I will KLICK real on by the left / right Corner.
    With tapping work the left and right klick, but not with the real klick on the Corner.
    The right klick will work perfectly on the right Corner.
    The left klick will work only when i have one finger on the Touchpad so i Need 2! fingers to make a real left klick.
    Left klick with one finger only works by tapping.
    On OS-X all work fine so that you can be sure that the Hardware(touchpad) is ok.
    regards Andy

    Hello
    first, It was never about the right click, but only the left click.
    The right klick is ok!
    I think we are the problem so can not solve.
    As a last attempt, I have a youtube video
    It is ONLY the left klick with a Problem.
    http://youtu.be/XP6CoJBZEDM
    You can see the left klick works not with only 1 finger on the pad.
    But when i put a finger on the pad and try it again the left klick it works....
    Note also the noise in the Video.
    Tapping is no alternative!
    But it is not so bad, then the Macbook is just not used with windows.
    many greetings and thanks for your effort
    Andy

  • Windows 8.1 ok on mid 2012 macbook pro retina ??

    hi,im on the brink of purchasing windows 8.1 from microsoft but would like some feedback first if it runs ok on macbook pro retina mid 2012 ??

    Windows 8.1 is compatible with the Mid 2012 MacBook Pro with Retina display, and you shouldn't have any problem by installing it.
    To install Windows, follow these steps > http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1636/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.8.pdf Remember to download the Windows support software, as indicated in the how-to

  • Fresh Install of Windows 8.1 on rMBP mid 2012

    Seeing how there are issues about bootcamp and windows 8.1, anyone know if a fresh install of Windows 8.1 (non-pro) will work on a rMBP mid 2012 model using the usual bootcamp instructions? Or will I have to do a workaround to get it installed?

    That is what I fear. I've heard issues about installing windows 8.1 directly (though most seem to be about the 2013 MBPs, unsure of my model), and considering it's impossible for me to get a copy of windows 8 and upgrade through the store (the optimal solution) now, I'm left with installing 8.1 right from the get-go. Anyone else have success/experience going through the 8.1 route on 2012 MBPs?

  • Windows 8 on MacBook Pro mid 2012

    Hi!
    Windows 8 on on MacBook Pro retina mid 2012 uses Intel HD Graphics 4000 and don't detect NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M.
    BootCamp latest version...
    Please, help!

    Have you installed the Apple Supplied Windows Support files. If you have then boot back into OS X and check that the Nvidia card is actually working.
    It is only on Mac systems that don't have the add-on Discrete graphics card that Windows uses the Intel built in GPU. Or on Mac's that the discrete graphics have failed.

  • Safari 3.01 beta (Windows) too slow on some machines

    On certain Windows machines I have, the Safari 3.01 beta is incredibly slow, as reported by a few others in this forum. The pages--any page, from the simple Google search page to local .html files--will ultimately load after minutes, often with pictures and other embedded objects timing out. That this happens with local .html files as well as sites readily accessible in other browsers indicates it's not a connectivity or networking problem per se.
    OK, I've now uninstalled and re-installed, with various combinations of clearing out the user settings under the %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Apple Computer or not, and still cannot get around this problem.
    I cannot identify anything in common between the machines except for the Safari Beta and that they are Windows XP Professional SP2 systems with all current updates as of now. The particular machine from which I'm posting this has the problem; it's a Celeron 4/2.6 GHz with 1 GB RAM, so it shouldn't be an issue.
    Incidentally, this is really an alpha release that doesn't remotely deserve to be tagged as a beta; I know that catching the WWDC deadline to publicize the release was important, but Apple should come clean as to the level of testing and alpha status of this product, even if it is free, considering it is being so publicly advertised and wrongly hyped as fast. I'd trade stability for (reasonable) speed any given day, especially for those of us whose primary interest in the product is Web design QA under different browsers/rendering engines.
    Any suggestions?

    Is the problem the system/install of OC or the profile/user. Try reinstalling OC on the "fast" system but use the profile/user of one of the "slow" systems.Have tried the other way around (tried with the "fast user" on the "slow machine" :o)... still slow..)In which case the problem is unlikely to be "server-side". You can also review the Outlook Connector debug logs to see if there is some indication of why the delay is occuring.

    I can't seem to get any IMAP telemetry logs from outlook connector....
    I wasn't quite sure what was meant when the docs say create a directory imap/<userid>. What is the userid? So I tried some variations. This is for user in the default domain. Tried jdoe, [email protected] and an alias address (it was the mail-value in ldap). Nothing appeared when using the outlook connector, but when I added the account as an imap account in outlook, logs appeared in the jdoe-directory... Doesn't the outlook connector use imap???
    Yes it does. Telemetry logs are only created for new connections after the telemetry directory for the user has been created. So you would need to restart Outlook to get the log files.
    (btw: imap idle doesn't seem to work when using outlook connector, but works when using imap account...?)It definitely appears Outlook Connector does not make use of IMAP IDLE. A quick search didn't reveal any existing enhancement requests to have this functionality added.

  • How do I get a line out signal from my macpro mid-2012

    I went to Preferences, Sound, Output. The only option is HEADPHONES.
    I want to send music from iTunes to a sound mixing board. I can use the headphone port, but the signal is weak and poor sound quality. I used to use  my iPod which works well because I have a cable that takes a line signal off the ipod port (the one you use when you are charging or communicating with the computer)
    I am using a digital mixer now controled with the Mac and don't want to mess with two peripherals when working a job.
    I have only recently moved from DOS/Windows machines after 30 years with them. My last Windows laptop was a Toshiba. Whenever I plugged something into the 1/8" port it would ask, "Headphones or Line Out?"

    Do you have a 13" model? I believe (I could be wrong) that the 2012 13" model only supports line in, no line out. You used to be able to switch the port to in or out but I don't think that feature is available in newer models (again, I could be wrong - I don't have a 13" to test).

  • Safari on Windows too slow on my PC

    When I use Safari on my Mac it rocks, but since i got installed on my work PC (intel core 2 @ 2.33GHz - 4 Gb memory, running XP) yesterday it been really slow, can't understand why!! must admit, IE7 was much faster, i am sure Safari is fast, but whats the problem here. Any ideas? thnx

    I take this laptop home with me and I use it through my wireless network at home, I think Safari have better responce but still slower than IE 7. The strange thing is when I installed Firefox in the past that used to fly with no delays!! It has to be network configuration issue.
    Also I am not sure if safari has manual proxy settings, cause this laptop is configured to include our work network proxy. I am not sure if this was configured on Safari (somewhere) it would speed things up! my knowledge on proxy is little

  • MacPro (mid 2012) won't recognize keyboard/mouse on startup

    For the past month my magic mouse has repeatedly quit working. Fussing will get it back up and running, sometimes by shutting down. Today when booting up, I get the splash screen but neither magic mouse or bluetooth Logitech keyboard are recognized so I can't log-on.  Have tried both on my laptop and they are both seen and work fine. I need help. Thanks.

  • My MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) is too slow after installing Yosemite version 10.10.1. All programs take for ever to load especially Safari and even chrome. I regret upgrading to yosemite, it was all fine with Maverick. Any suggestions ? ThankYou

    My MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) is too slow after installing Yosemite version 10.10.1. All programs take for ever to load especially Safari and even chrome. I regret upgrading to yosemite, it was all fine with Maverick. Any suggestions ? ThankYou

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Yosemite made my MacBook Pro (Mid-2012) EXTREMELY slow

    Yosemite has really gummed up my system. I'm reluctant to do a clean install, but I will if absolutely necessary.
    This is what Etrecheck says. Any thought will be repaid by my eternal gratitude.
    Problem description:
    Macbook Pro (Mid-2012) is slow and lags following Yosemite installation.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.

    Is is possible to install Win 2007 in MacPro (retina display) with USB (2.0 or 3.0) as new Mac retina display lacks DVD.
    MacBook Pro with Retina display, Windows 7
