Mac Pro :: Non Supported Resolution On OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
Nov 30, 2014
I have Mac Pro 2014 Quad-Core intel Xeon E5 with AMD FirePro D300 graphics. Yesterday I updated my OS from Mavericks to Yosemite and now i can't choose resolution 2560x1440 (only max 1080i available) (i use monitor Samsung LS27B970 WQHD and HDMI connection). What can i do?
Info:
Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1), HDMI connection
I am running a 2 GHz core 2 duo with the GMA 950 integrated graphics and am looking at getting a screen with a max res of 1920 x 1200. I mostly run in closed clamshell mode so it would only be driving one display. Can I do this?
I have a G5 Quad with an Ati x1900 graphics card running into a 52" Samsung LCD. This was working fine through a dvi-vga adaptor until I switched the monitor resolution from 1920X1080 to 1360X768 which is not supported by the monitor .....blank screen. I plugged another 19" monitor into the other output on the card and both work fine but as soon as I remove the 19" the 52" reverts back to the unsupported mode. I have reset the pram and tried booting in safe mode but that did not help me. From bootup the 52" works fine until just before the login screen, then it switches resolution......blank screen. Would anyone know where these settings would be housed in OS 10.5.1 so I can modify (delete) them?
new screen sharing ability in messages app. I noticed that when I shared the screen of a coworker who uses 2 external monitors I saw both his screens but they only took up about half my screen on my laptop and the resolution was so small I would could hardly read it. Is there a way to make it use the whole screen so it is bigger. A couple other things I noticed was that by default both the person sharing their screen and the person viewing the screen had control of the mouse. Is there any way of restricting that or at least controlling when the person viewing gets control? Also is there a way to only share one monitor if you are using multiple monitors .
1440x900 resolution of the new MacBook Air 13.3" screen is simply too high, making everything way too small and straining on my eyes. Is there a replacement LED LCD panel with a lower resolution (1280x800 like the old MBA) that could be retrofitted?
It is clear there are people who love their high-res antiglare display; the ability to have more pallets open in Photoshop, see more of what you are doing in Logic. However, there is a fair few of us who dislike the high-res because of decreased fonts, smaller graphical interface things.if you had the choice to go for a high-res or normal res antiglare 15", what would you go for?
i am using a hackintosh for a week now. I am using it just to get used to Mac OS X because i am switching to a Macbook Pro in a couple months. I switched from PC to Mac officially now. OK, let's come to the main topic of this thread;-At first, my hackintosh couldn't get my gfx card, i couldn't find the driver(kext) so my resolution was very bad. Everything was huge and blurry. I couldn't even look at my 17" Samsung LCD screen. I made an entry to file which was something like this
Who has actually played games on BOTH the 2010 high res and standard res macbook pros?Reading through that gaming benchmark thread isn't much of an indicator as most people don't post their resolution and if they have they have only played on one or the other.Im trying to get a better indicator on the performance difference with newer games. Are we talking 2-6 fps drop or 10-20 or more?
For those who would like to try adapt to hi-res screen of the 15'' but the not sure if they can, if they can't adapt to the hi-res, it's possible to set the resolution to 1440x900 with no appearence differences from the standard res screens?So the appearence and quality of the hi-res screen set to 1440x900 is the same of the standard res screen?
So i'm trying to figure out the best resolution for using my macbook pro in clamshell mode. I think ever since i installed snow leopard the new resolution choices i have are not longer pixel x pixel, but actual TV resolutions, such as 1080i, 720p, 420p. In the past I've used SwitchResX to do custom resolutions for my tv but that dosnt seem to work anymore.
I'm trying to find a resolution where text is easy to read. 1080i looks pretty but text is extremely small. 720p the text is larger and easy to see but is very fuzzy and not easy on the eyes. I guess this has something to do with the pixels on a tv being farther apart than that of a computer monitor. It's a 32" LCD TV. I'm using a DVI to HDMI cable (Non-Unibody Macbook Pro).
1) Having a difficult time finding anything good on this. Anyone got direct comparison pics between the two on the 15"?2) Also how much brighter are the mid-2010 15" displays compared with the late-08 15" displays? IIRC the 2009 screens got a wider color gamut and more brightness than the original unibody screens.
How does the Antiglare screen look? Does it look cheap and flimsy like the matte screens on the pc laptops?This is my first Mac and i'm looking at going all out and getting the top of the line 15". I know I definitely want the HD screen, i'm just not sure which screen looks better. What about a 5400 vs 7200 rpm hdd? Is this upgrade worth it?
Why webcam vendors such as Logitech and Philips are not supporting Mac OS for their new high-end webcams? such as [URL]. Could you get this to work using Bootcamp on a Mac Pro?
I know Maya is little buggy under MacosX. so which other alternative or majority used application for mac? Also why like FCP Apple not releasing any 3D software ?
i was wondering if someone can clarify what this driver update means.Its been stated in many websites that it will have windows support. Does that mean i can just plug this monitor into my windows machine and everything will work. Like supported in Mac OS X?
Or does this really mean, running bootcamp is the only way.after that driver update was release I got my hope up high in regards to me buying this display.
I have tried the following both as my user and root user sudo cp -R file /dev/file and I get cp: /dev/file: Operation not supported This is the ls -l for the file -rwxrwxrwx 1 lee lee 129260 Apr 3 2009 file and this is mount

Can anyone tell me what is wrong with what I am doing?
Ive recently purchased Photoshop CS4 and I am having trouble making it work on my macbook. I believe I have met all of the requirements, and I have uninstalled it multiple times using the uninstaller. I need some new ideas on what could be going wrong.
My old printer died and when I tried to hook up a new printer, it would not work. I contacted Apple but my "legacy" machine was no longer supported and I needed to pick a machine that is (was) supported. Is there a list of printers I can find that will work with my legacy machine?
I would think it could run about any aplication fine and 64Bit is no issue? I am looking a buying a Mac Pro (2006) and just trying to decide. If mountain lion is not supported how long before it becomes unusable as a daily machine?
I paid for and downloaded the Lion my version is 10.7.4?My MS word is no longer supported. I am freaking out because of my college papers. I apparently didn't read directions too much to see it would no longer support. I am willing to buy new Microsoft word so it's supported if I can do so. Any suggestions or tips would help. I went to App Store to purchase but I have no clue on what to buy. Nothing on my computer that is MS is supported. I just need to be able to email some documents to other people that is MS word and write my papers on ms word.
after being FORCED to upgrade my 2007 2.66 Dual Core Xeon to Lion in order to migrate my iPhone/MobileMe stuff to iCloud, my dual-screen desktop is now mired in this inane implementation of 'full-screen' mode in Lion. I won't even start with that... Even worse, the full-screen mode button in the upper right corner of windows is the area I (previously) used to select a different window when multiple browser windows are up. It's driving me crazy, and I wish there was some sort of 'Spaces' implementation that is similar to what we had. But looking forward to hoping that perhaps Mountain Lion will fix the ills of Lion, I now see that only the 2008 Mac Pro towers will be supported, even though they are nearly identical in architecture (I think). Even our 2007 iMac is supported!
So, after having been forced away from Leopard (which was working for me just fine, thank you), I now find myself being left out on the doorstep by Apple with my high-end Mac Pro, for no apparent reason. Is anyone else out there in this situation? Does anyone else out there know a hack out of this full screen mode fiasco? It seems to me that Apple's decision to leave behind the first generation Intel Mac Pro is arbitrary at best, one of those indirect pokes to try and get us to upgrade hardware. It would be one thing if the computer wasn't fully functional in this 'day and age', but it *is* fully functional.
I recorded bunch of video with iPhone 3GS and then edited a 12min quicktime movie from the clips. Problem is that the file size became HUGE, 1,24GB! How can it become so large file? Even one of the raw clips was 15min and 399MB. I just wanted to export the movie (with quicktime) to my Mac with the same quality as the iPhone recording quality. Here's the quicktime export settings details that I exported the movie:
-Compression type: H.264 -Frame Rate: Current -Key Frames: All -Compressor quality: Best -Encoding: Best quality -Data rate: Automatic
Filter: None Size -Dimensions: Current 640 x 480
Sound -Format: Linear PCM -Channels: Stereo (L R) -Rate: 48.000kHz -Render settings: Best -Sample size: 16-bit -Little Endian
Ever since upgrading to SL, aMSN hasn't been supported, and its the only client I know of which offers webcam support for MSN. I was just wondering if anyone knew of an alternative program that supports SL as well as webcam for the MSN network.
