So I finally got XP running on a Raptor... it's strange that it only sees 1.99GB of the 8 in there. I know 32 bit XP (any 32 bit OS actually) can only address just under 4GB of RAM, but I'm wondering why XP on the Mac Pro only sees 2...
It's not a huge issue, but does anyone know why... or know of a fix (besides buying 64 bit Windows?
I have a Canon XL1s going into my MacBook Pro running Final Cut X via DV to FireWire 800 to thunderbolt. Since I am recording long meetings I skip recording to tape and record straight to the hard drive. I have done this in the past and it worked on older versions of the same hardware and software.
It will import only when the camera is also recording.Now When you import, you can see the feed and the computer says its importing, but after you stop importing the files are nowhere to be found. I even tried this on IMovie and used someone else's Mac with the same result.
Info:
Final Cut Pro X, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
I'm not sure if this is intended behavior or not. I just installed PS3 Media Server on my Mac Pro (Snow Leopard 10.6.3) and under Navigation/Share Settings under shared folders when I click add I can only select folders on my OS/boot drive and nothing else.
I've never used this on a Mac before but when I was running it on a Windows box I could just go there and hit add and pick whatever folder I wanted on whatever volume/drive I wanted.
Is there some config/change I need to do so it can view other drives/volumes?
My iMac G5 resizes its display on its own. The screen will suddenly go dark, then reappear in a smaller size with a black band around the edges. Eventually it will resize again to the correct display. I found when this happens it is "seeing" two displays, both the iMac, and an obviously non-existent "VGA Display." This doesn't happen all that often, and othewise everything seems to be working perfectly. Is this a software issue I can take care of, or an early warning sign of something more perfidious?

13" MacBook Pro 2.3 Intel i5 8gb ram 500gb hybrid Hdd OS X 10.7.4 Thunderbolt port mini display port to DVI and with HDMI adapter works fine mini DP to VGA adapter will see VGA monitor (tested on 5 different monitors) but will not display anything on external display. Newer displays just go into power saving mode and older VGA displays just are blank. Even tried DVI to VGA adapter on mini DP to DVI adapter with same issue. I'm guessing I have no analog output from the DP port. tried the SMC and PRAM reset with no results.

In the studio mixing, trying to connect my iMac (10.5.8) to their Netgear Wireless. Airport sees it fine. But no Internet. My 3GS has Internet thru it just fine.
I had this problem once before with an older iMac, and seem to remember deleting certificates, then renewing DHCP lease. Tried doing the same thing again (just deleted all certificates under Keychain), but still no Internet.
I'm using an early 2008 Mac Pro with plenty of RAM and an 8800GT graphics card.
I used Boot Camp to make a partition on the main system drive, put Vista 64 on there. It worked fine, except a lot of the software I need doesn't work in Vista 64.
So I put a new drive in there (a WD Raptor) And installed XP 64 on there manually - not using the Boot Camp Assistant, just booting from the CD, selecting the drive, and so on.
After getting all the drivers to work, the system ran really well. It was amazing! However, the Vista partition stopped showing up when I option-started the machine. No big deal, however, because I was no longer using it.
Yesterday, I used Boot Camp Assistant to remove the older Vista 64 partition.
The next time I option-started the machine, the XP 64 partition was gone. I only had the option to start from the OS X system drive.
The drive is also not available as a startup disk option in System Preferences.
The drive is still in the machine, all the files seem intact.
I tried removing the OS X drive, leaving only the XP 64 drive, this left me with zero options when I option-started.
FCPX (latest version) recognizes my external hard drive (my book 4TB) as a camera. Didn't dave this problem before, so when I'm importing to my project the the hard drive is listed as a camera and the program starts to scan through all files! this means that the ram memory is filled i no time! Is it something in my settings or is it the new version of fcpx that is playing tricks on me (not supported had drive?)
View 2 Replies View RelatedApple this month continues to plug away on a small but significant update to its fledgeling Safari web browser, most recently making improvements to the application's handling of web forms and faulty Javascripts.
The cross-platform browser update presently dubbed Safari 3.1 was first made available to the company's developer community last month. Since then, only one external revision has been spotted, arriving last week in the form of three distinct distributions.
A public beta for versions of the Windows operating system carried build number 31A15 and weighed in at 18.5MB, while versions for Mac OS X Tiger and Leopard arrived as builds 8S3021 and 9B4021, weighing in at 48.6MB and 38.9MB, respectively.
In a set of release notes reported to have accompanied the latest distributions, Apple advocated "significant performance, stability, and compatibility improvements" over the builds released just three weeks earlier.
Specifically, the company said Safari 3.1 accepts large amounts of text pastes into forms much faster than its predecessor and that the browser now logs all nasty and unsafe Javascripts to a system log file for later review. In addition, a pesky bug that prevented earlier builds for uploading photos via web forms to online auction sites has also been fixed.
The Mac maker offered no update on the browser's more compelling enhancements, which include support for downloadable web fonts, HTML5 video and audio tags, CSS transitions and animations, and a new SQL storage API.
Improvements to Javascript performance are also a significant focus of the upcoming release, which uses an unreleased version of Apple's Webkit frame work that has proven to be up to 2.5 times as fast in Javascript operations than that of the current version included with the existing Safari 3.0.4 software.
