Direct networking Mac Pros, and via a switch setting

I have a Mac Pro from previous gen and will migrate to a 2013. I'll keep one older goes for FCP7 concerts that come to life.

So for the migration and the initial period of work the bugs out ("Dang?', where is the After effects plugin "AW, forget a font! "Where this stupid buy code?") I'll need to have network; I also need to buy a bunch of attachments for spinning-disk RAID, SSD, optical drive, etc. There will be a period I will access pictures and things of the old system while working on another.

So my question: the old Pro is connected to a switch and several macs are networked throughout my space. There is an additional port close to my office so I can network the pro - but it it possible/fast/sought somehow to have old mac plugged into the switch and plug the other into the free Ethernet port on the old, because they will be sitting side by side (Yes, my office will be a mess for awhile).

Basically, I was wondering if a direct connection between two Mac will be faster file transfers and allow a new access to the internet.

(I know how to add the new for the network, but still she wondered why there are two ports on Mac high range). Thanks for any thoughts.

for near-Hard Drive performance, you need a Gigabit Ethernet switch. If you do not, you must get a. It's the only acceptable way to manage the transfer of files from local computer.

Your router has no need to gigabit speeds, because your Internet connection is not likely to be faster than 100M bps. The "trick" (if it exists) is that the computer transfers to use Ethernet wiring, but they do not use the routing on the router, only direct data transfer function (switch functions ""), if a cable like that. "

There is no simple way to get faster speeds, like plug it into a computer by cable-computer.

The second Ethernet port is good for storage area network connecting, as a NAS.

    If the Time Capsule and MacBook Pros are not on the same network, the MacBook is not backup in the time Capsule. You probably see what snapshots leaving MacBook on the local disk, until the two are reconnected. If you don't want that to happen, disable Time Machine on a different network.

    Personally, I would install just without turning off. Worst thing that will l be happen you will need to disable a. Does not mean that you must uninstall just disable and when you need it, just disable one of the other and activate the current. But I assume CS5 because he is not yet supported most probably don't even follow the activations. I'm guessing the last part but when trying to install and activate without disabling one will not harm what anyone,.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on my Apple Mac Pro and MacBook Pro from Apple

    I think I found the answer to my question: "if I can install my copy of Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on my Apple Mac Pro and my Apple MacBook Pro bought recently?" I think that my question has been answered by reading the text of the Convention for the use of this site in the following text:

    "You can activate the software on up to 2 devices (or virtual machines) at the same time, if these activations are associated with the same Adobe ID for the same person, except to . http://www.Adobe.com/go/activation_fr . However, you cannot use the software on these devices simultaneously. »

    If this is correct, you could confirm. I know what security conscious Adobe with their software.

    Thank you! Be safe!

    Ken

    Hi kennethf71183385,

    Thanks a lot for the asking! Yes, you are right to activate your copy of Acrobat on two computers. For more information on activating Adobe software, see Activation & deactivation Help - Support Adobe !

  • My Mac Pro and HP Deskjet 3070 PowerBook does not connect via a wireless network from dorm

    Both my laptop and printer (an all-in-one) are connected to the same wireless network dorm, but they do not connect on it.  They connect only wire using a USB cable.

    I have for the MacBook Pro and the Deskjet printer IP addresses but no way to use to establish a connection.  I don't have access to the network router.  When I test the connectivity, the software tells me, "too many networks."  He can't make a choice!

    Interestingly, I have my MacBook Air along this journey, too, and the two MacBook have no problem of communication on the same network of dorm.

    Is it possible to plug these devices such as computers connect or should I remain attached to the USB cable to use my new printer?  I guess you know how I feel about this.  Thanks for your advice.

    You are right.  There is no way to bypass security protected by password and thus to connect a Mac to a Deskjet 3070 via a secure network without access to a router, and a password.  However, even without access to a network or a router, there is a workaround solution.  In my case, where the technical ability to correctly configure the router and the printer is beyond the understanding of the management of the dormitory, qualified through the difference to happen anytime soon, it is the answer I need.

    The solution is to build your own Mac + network printer and make it private, protect it against unwanted entry.  This offer you little mobility in the area of the printer, which is much better than nothing.  A sofa can be more conducive to creative thinking as an Office Chair.  The unconventional twist that Johnny introduced the user, the printer that generates the sender-recipient, not the Mac network.  Very smart.

    I refer you to the thread,

    "Deskjet 3070 cannot connect to the ad - hoc network (Mac)"

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/printer-networking-and-wireless/DeskJet-3070A-cant-connect-to-ad-hoc-network/m-p/1446819#M38598

    Then the only question is to know how to connect your Mac on the Deskjet 3070 printer via the generic (as he calls it, "ad hoc") network created by the Deskjet printer.  The Mac has abundant features for this purpose.

    Thanks for the categorical assertion, however.  No sense to break down the walls looking for a nonexistent hidden tunnel...!

  • MAC PRO and Geforce GTX 980 ti

    I just bought a ti GTX 980 (only not flashed to mac). My MAC PRO 2010 IN Yosemite 10.10.5 system is supposed to have the latest drivers from quadro 4000 and k5000 as web base drivers where my new ti 980 should work, but the only response from switching on the computer is a black screen. I don't know what I have to do to get into the system or activate the drivers. I don't like to see the logo of apple or bootcam. I want to just use it with mac.

    My card is GIGABYTE 980 ti

    Help please

    Thank you!!

    Please read all THE information on all the links. You NEED to install drivers for this card.

  • LR 3.2, the Mac Pro and the snow leopard, it's impossible to choose locations of storage-catalogue now?

    Sorry if cela a detachment to repeat ad nauseam, but I did a search and found solutions to Win7 only, so this is:

    I just got my new Mac Pro all together towards the top, and when I went from LR 3.2 Prefs and the catalog settings I see more a choice on where I can keep all my .lrcat files.  On my G5, I used one of my external drives for all of my Lightroom catalogs and always want to use the same folder, so I don't keep loading my system drive > users folder where LR seems to want to put the cats.  Can we not choose the location most?  I hope that's not true.

    Why do you prefer? Lrcat file is simply stored where you indicate he should go when you create a new. It can be anywhere as long as it is not a network drive. You get just a standard file browser dialog that you can point to anywhere that you want.

  • Mac Pro and Ram ECC, basic questions

    Hi all

    one of the reasons why I bought a mac pro opportunity was the ecc ram.

    When the motherboard firmware and os work perfectly together, ram ecc can not only detect the ram errors, they can be corrected completely transparent and invisible to the user.

    But other scenarios can be implemented too...

    -the system can cancel all user processes and stop the system immediately.

    -the system can say "(ram erreur détectée, décidez vous-même à un) continue, b) stop, c)..."

    -the system can correct the error of ram and continue, and perhaps somewhere in a "count of the errors of ram' system can be increased early warning"ram module xyz contains errors, please share.

    So my question: what will happen in a mac pro (2010/5.1, with 10.11.4) when a ram error is detected?

    Greetings from the Germany

    Chris

    If only some errors, then the user is not notified.

    However, if there are so many errors that they may not be correct which usually results in a kernel panic with many banks to report errors.

    Sometimes errors are detected during the self-test on startup and a few times it will be diagnosed led illuminated by the stick of bad memory. Also if you open System Profiler/About this Mac and go to the part of the memory, it does not say OK

  • Mac Pro and living with storage Thunderbolt

    Yes I m thinking of diving and the purchase of the Mac Pro with 256 or 512 GB SSD. So what I wonder about is what kind of external storage Thunderbolt to buy and how performance is with love at first sight when you work with large image (1-2 GB. tif´s) files. The internal memory won't be enough with 256 / 512GB SDD and the 1 TB i dear for me. So I'd rather have an external storage to store the images and also do the real work.

    The computer I m using right now is a Macbook Pro 2011 with a 256 GB OSX disc and 1 to mechanical (swapped the optical drive).

    Backstory: I m photographer and Retoucher. Blabla. Need a new computer. And so on.

  • Mac Pro and Pro first: CUDA Will help me?

    Hey people.

    I am a complete and utter novice regarding the technology offered by Adobe with respect to video editing.  I'm not a pro by any stretch, I just sort of found that my editing of video and wants needs are not met by the video software 'House '.  I have so far using Apple Final Cut Express to do my job, but I'm looking to move to 64-bit edition so that I can better use the RAM in my Mac Pro.  I tried to make Final Cut Pro X works for me, but there were some features I used in FCE are not available in the Pro version.

    Made me try the Premier Pro.  I play with the trial for 30 days now, and I like what I see.  "It's a little expensive, but I can eat without problem.  I have a question: for what little I do, CUDA will actually help?  My workflow goes something like this:

    1. Import AVCHD from my Sony camera
    2. Import a file from my portable recorder WAV
    3. Merge/sync audio and video up to
    4. The foreign cut off the beginning and end of the video
    5. Exporting to h.264/MP4

    I do that 4 times after a run monitoring session (in car video track).  Anything that would prevent me from working bugs the snot out of me.  It seems if I order correctly work with Premier Pro, I can stop the software to render anything until it is actually a time for export.  And given that the body comes with the media conversion software that takes care of the export, lines to the top of my video existing while I start working on the next is perfectly feasible.

    I like it.

    Now... with this list above, CUDA will help at all?  I see that with the Mac Pro, the only card nVidia (reasonable price) supported is the older GTX285.  I can always find those on EBay, but... is it worth it?

    Thoughts?  Thank you!

    JAS

    It's not like you're going to do anything that will benefit treatment CUDA.

  • How to synchronize the catalog between mac pro and imac?

    I recently bought a macbook pro to work on the road.

    Since I was a very big picture library (catalogue of 25 GB, + / 40000 photos), I enclose the keywords to make a nice database.

    It is a hell of a job. But with my laptop now I could kill time and I am working on my catalog everywhere. This is the big idea.

    I would like the same catalog to keep being synchronized between my imac and laptop. My Imac is still my main computer. This is attached to my NAS system and the database of photos of 6 TB.

    All the images are in a catalog. On my laptop I don't need access to this database of real images. I just want to make selections, add keywords. Is there some way this can be done easily, without paying attention to the rather, I'm working on my laptop or My Imac, to avoid disrupting the catalogues.

    When I import new images on my laptop, I make a new catalog and import/export this to my main catalog, once my files are on their place on my NAS system.

    Hi Wannesnim,

    What you describe is more or less how I work all the time. I use Dropbox to synchronize my catalog and use Smart Previews (also synced via Dropbox) to work with my images. I use a MacBook Pro on the go and a Windows machine at home. I created a video tutorial explaining how this is done:
