a friend has 2 mac pro - I can make network more quickly?

Here's the story;

2 mac pro running each 10.9.5,

Xeon quad core 2.8 ghz cpu, 4 ram slots

each file sharing with others via "personal file sharing".

only 1 ethernet cable / port currently used in each, ethernet2 with gigabit switch

Another ethernet port integrated on every mac pro is empty

same cable is used for internet, navigation, ftp etc as this is the file sharing now

is it possible to use a cross over cable in the empty slots of ethernet between 2 macs to separate the internet traffic from file-sharing?

I would probably need to manually set the IP to the newly used slot

What should I use for a speech of "router" for the new ports?

pros 2 mac need to see each other files

and

both need to see the internet as it is

Thanks for the reading/listening

Michael kulyk

Your current connection (through the router) is fine.

(1) be sure the router can move to Gigabit Ethernet speeds, and

(2) that all of THE cables have all eight drivers present, and

(3) manually to configure Jumbo frames (9000), full duplex, flow control

There is no acceleration of direct wiring computer-to-computer, because it's already happening - that the 'Switch' of the router part is involved, and the data is transferred directly between the two computers.

To 'see each and other files' enable file sharing in the sharing on both computers Panel.

    Provided the specifications of the computer meets Windows XP you can switch from 2000 to XP. If it does not meet the specifications, you may upgrade the computer first or get a new one which is more cheaper today.

    In addition, please note that you can only switch to Windows XP Professional. If it is a home edition you have then it will not work. You can refer to the link below on how to update your copy of Windows 2000 to Windows XP Pro.

    The cool thing about CC, it's that you have Mac and PC. Instead of a serial number, you just sign in with your Adobe ID and password and you're good to go.

    So, go on your Mac, open Safari, go to Adobe.com and download the CC for Mac desktop application. There you can manage your downloads.

  • 10 Windows installed successfully on early 2009 Mac Pro Quad but no network detected

    I installed Windows company 81 on my Mac Pro without problem, using the WiFi Edimax EW-7711MAC of OWX adapter, which went very well under 8.1.

    I have upgraded to Windows 10 company, works very well, "sfc / scannow" gave rise to no error, but the card WiFi has only a beta driver 10 to win, and I can't detect all of the networks. The pilot has been out since August, seems if it was questions, he would have been fired and Edimax support did not have any major problem with the driver beta for me. I had to run commands for the visible card.

    Not sure if this is a gap in the Bootcamp drivers as I lost it scrolling and keyboard Windows functions or the beta for the WiFi card driver is at fault.

    Device Manager sees the adapter, shows in the adapters in the Panel, just no networks are detected.

    Can what version of the drivers for Bootcamp I use with an Early 2009 Mac Pro Quad to work with Windows 10? I saw some "hacks" on the boards, especially for the Macbook Pro. Curious to know if anyone has found a combination of driver that works with this model or as.

    Can you check if WiFi issues on Windows using boot camp 10 solves your problem of WiFi?

  • How can I scroll more quickly on mac?

    Scrolling is very slow (like half of a line by the wheel movement) on my firefox on Mac OS X Lion mountain, when I just scroll slowly. The scroll crossing accelerated when I scroll quickly is hard enough (so smooth scrolling is enabled). So do turn slowly the wheel is to slow and a bit faster scrolling is too fast, too early for my tase, so scrolling on a page is quite heavy for me. This effect is little matter "smooth scrolling", so it has nothing to do with a bad performance.
    How am I able to change this behavior?
    I tried the mousewheel.withnokey.numlines parameters (integer, a number any) and mousewheel.withnokey.sysnumlines (bool, false). They have no effect on the scroll at all.
    I tried to change my preferences system for scrolling. No effect either.
    I tried those with Firefox 17 18 (Beta) and 19 (Aurora) (liberation) after deleting my profile, so without any addons.
    Is there something that I missed, or it's just broken?

    Someone at - it a response?

    (Mac Pro 3.1, latest El Capitan, several players used, same problem)

    What do say to recognize?

  • Best Mac Pro Configuration for LR?

    For various reasons, I'm planning on migrating from my home desktop pc (4 years core2 2.4 ghz xp pro sp 3 32-bit to access the 2.93 on 4 GB of ram) to a new or (slightly used recently) Mac Pro desktop computer.  The Mac Pro is available in many different configurations and I would appreciate advice on the number of cores and the amount of ram I really need to run comfortably LR3x and its upgrades (within reasonable limits) and the PS3 for now and more later probably all that is underway.  I'm a reasonably advanced amateur photographer. I shoot what interests me and now use LR 90-95% of my post processing of my image of Leica and Canon raw files. I use some add-ons (SilverEfex Pro2 and others).

    I understand some articles read too much muscle in the Mac Pro can actually slow down LR, so if this is the case I would stay slim; also economic issues are somewhat a matter of concern.

    I have already considered a laptop or an iMac and decided that the Mac Pro is what I want.  The question is just "what will work best for me?

    Thanks in advance and if you want more information, just make me know.

    -Bob

    p.s. - What is disabled in this Forum search function?  I couldn't make it work.

    @ Bob: I think you might have acquired some misinformation somewhere. There is no such thing as "too much muscle" in a Mac Pro in relation to Lightroom - or any other program. OS X allocates resources to applications as they need. Unused resources remain inactive or are used by other applications.

    Adobe posts the minimum requirements for their applications, but these should be just taken as a starting point. In my opinion you should buy the best Mac Pro can manage your budget - and maybe a little more. The computer is an investment, after all, not a luxury. That said, you need to run Lightroom efficiently and Jay what to do video editing are not necessarily the same. For video rendering more hearts are better. For Lightroom, the question of the number of processor cores is less critical. Whereas, to speed the CPU is more relevant. For both, the amount of RAM can make a big difference.

    I recommend as a starting point, at least a Mac Pro quad-core with 4 GB of RAM. That would make if you were watching an iMac as well.

    I understand, however, looking at the current line-up of Mac Pro how can be confusing. The plu Nehalem powered Mac Pros look faster for less money, but now it is old technology. The new Intel Westmere processors offers significant improvements in performance. Unfortunately, they are also much more expensive than any upgrade Mac CPU previous. But if you want to 'future proof' your new Mac, one with a Westmere CPU is the best way to go. Model of 8 cores with Jay seems to be the best value, with two quadruple-heart 2.4 GHz CPU of Westmere. However, for only $200 more you can get the 6 base 3.33 GHz CPU Westmere. For the purpose of Lightroom, the fastest CPU Model 6 main more of a difference that the two additional cores will be in the version of 8 basis. And the version of the 6 core will take care of any multitasking job you throw at it; She, using Lightroom together with Adobe Photoshop, for example.

    To scramble a bit more, however, if the use of Lightroom is your main concern, a Mac Pro can be exaggerated. The new iMacs, which came out since you started this thread, are excellent machines. You could get much more for your money with a 27 "iMac, BTO with a quad-core 3.3 GHz Intel Sandy Bridge CPU, 8 GB of RAM and a hard disk of 2 TB for about $1000 less than the Mac Pro that you look. With a compatible computer, you get a screen wonderful 27 "on the iMac. I don't know why you think you need the Mac Pro. The iMac can now draw up to 16 GB of RAM. If you were to get one with 8 GB factory installed by Apple - as a BTO option - it would be still two empty slots of RAM available for a future upgrade. You could add an SSD to the iMac and always pay less than you would for the Mac Pro.

    And the new iMacs have a Thunderbolt port; Indeed, 27 "models have two ports Thunderbolt. These offer much better results and greater flexibility than any previous i/o connection. With a suitable adapter, you can use any device external, including eSATA, FireWire 400 and 800, USB 1, 2 and 3 and even Ethernet and an external monitor. Sure, the iMac has still four USB 2 ports and a Firewire 800 port and a slot for SDXC memory card. For what it may be, I suggest you only give the iMac another look. Your budget will thank you.

  • More high graphics card Possible for early 2009 Mac Pro

    As the title suggests, I have an early 2009 Mac Pro with 12 GB of RAM.

    I want to update my graphics card to something better and I have no idea of what I put in the card. Ideally, I would like to put the last possible graphics card that is compatible for this.

    I don't know what I would look for PCI or PCI - e and what diet I would look for that would support such a computer "arcane".

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Best wishes

    the 2009 mac 4.1 pro can be upgraded to a number of current spare cards from Nvidia and AMD, but in many cases the cards require custom flashing of the Distributor and custom drivers. You need to buy a card with a distributor of mac because versions "Windows" of these cards will not work out of the box and OS X will not support without 3rd party drivers. This procedure is not recommended by apple that would rather you buy a new mac pro and again I want to say something for $5K, which offers the latest GPU is already 3 years old.

    research on the Web "Mac Pro 4.1 GPU" for more details.
