Mac Pro Tower 2012 Unresponsive (Power Light On, red LED turn on)

Found my Mac Pro 2012 Tower responds more today with the power led and a red led light on the inside of the tower.  The subject of research and could not find anyone who had this exact question (unless I'm missing something) and I also have trouble understanding what LED light and how do I proceed.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Remove all external and off devices, disconnect all external cables

Check your GPU for dust/dirt/creep (where it "fits" of the socket), you can remove it but when undertaking this make sure that you are properly grounded at all times and the components are put in static free containers, then clean the inside of the computer with compressed air ensuring that you damage the connectors not blowing the white point.

Replace the GPU and follow the instructions to reset the SMC.

See the yellow highlight

Plug directly into a wall outlet connected to the ground not a power strip or battery backup.

otherwise, to replace the CMOS battery on the logic board, after that leave the device unplugged for 30 minutes or more.

  • Compatibility «?» (Mac Pro Tower / Firewire / climax together, etc..)

    I take Logic Pro 9, but after looking at all the improvements for Logic Pro X, I can't wait to get up to speed.

    I like the look of the improvements to the plug-in; logic adding distance (not available for LP9?); Drum Kit Designer, synthesizer, etc.

    When he (LP10) announced that there is a flagrant limitation I had with my current set-up but I don't remember what the hiccup was... perhaps there is none and I could be good-to-go.  Can anyone confirm if and where I'm looking at compatibility problems?

    System: Mac Pro Tower (mid-2010) 2.8 GHz Quad Core Intel Xenon

    OS: 10.10.5 (Yosemite)

    Interface: Climax together - Firewire

    If I remember, the question I met was first introduced with the announcement of Logic Pro X was he needed El Capitan - which did not offer the divers "Core Audio" / support, which means that overall height (Firewire) would be uncertain if even not work at all.  "" Looking at the "tech specs" on Logic Pro X, it supports OS X 10.10.  That looks promising (if it in fact the issue with El Capitan and the lack of support for Core Audio driver still exists).

    Can I run Logic Pro X to Yosemite?

    Can I run overall height (FireWire) in El Capitan without the Core Audio Driver issues / Firewire?

    Thanks in advance!

    I must add, additional hardware, I am running is a UAD PCI card in the tower.

  • the amount of memory can increase book mac pro mid 2012

    Hello Sir,

    I want to thank the size of the RAM of my book of mac pro mid 2012. May I know what is the maximum RAM, it supports?

    Thank you.

    It may depend on whether it is the version of the retina.   As there are several options in terms of opinion, you may want to type "what is the maximum RAM for a Macbook Pro mid 2012' and read."    Officially, it seems that Apple says that 8 GB.

    You can also go to OWC (Macsales) which are recommended in these columns and discuss your question one by one.

  • MAC Pro tower to new MAC Pro upgrade

    Currently, I have a MAC Pro Tower and will be upgraded for the new MAC Pro, probably within 6 months.

    At the present time, I have 1 HD SSD (with programs and the OS on it) and 3 hard drives regularly in-house.  One of the internal HD contains the data of my programs, while the other two are used for backups, etc.

    Here are my questions:

    I plan to go with the 256 GB SSD drive in the new MAC Pro, but my question is can I get another internal HD (SSD, or other) to store my data?

    I plan on the withdrawal of the other HD and their use for external storage, should I do access these drives with the new MAC Pro?

    I currently have 3 external HD used to store photos and movies, I'm going to him again able to use with the new MAC Pro?

    I have speakers external, purchased from the Apple Store, they will work with the new MAC Pro?

    I have several printers, a scanner and on my current MAC Pro Tower, they will work on the new MAC Pro?

    I would just move the stuff of my current MAC Pro Tour (programs, operating system, data) for the new MAC Pro, this is something Apple can do for me?

    Needless to say, I am grateful for any help I can get in that case.

    Thank you.

    1 - 2013 cylinder Mac Pro can have only a single storage device internal. Cannot add another.

    I would opt for the 500 GB one.

    2 - Likley Yes but yo don't say how they are related to the tour D'Argent. The 2013 has four USB 3 and 6 ports Thunderbolt Mac you can get a bolt of lightning > adopter FireWire

    3 see # 2

    4 - Yes the speaker, if the USB or 3.5 mm will work

    5 - the printer and scanner will work if there are drivers that are supported on El Capitan. You have not specified the OSX version on your silver tower

    6. I've heard rumors that you will now pay Apple to move information to a new system, but you should check. You can do it yourself. It is not difficult. See:

    I have CS6 installed longer, so I don't remember the exact tree that he uses.  There are 2 text files, that you need to remove.  We're in the Premiere Pro installation directory, and the other is in the Adobe Media Encoder, a.  You locate the file called opencl_supported.txt.  You can find this file in the installation directories.  Delete both.  PR of restart and you should be able to choose OpenCL as the hardware renderer.

  • Rental short term for the Mac Pro Tower - transplant ramdisk hard

    Hello

    I am a composer based in the United Kingdom and use round of mid-2010 Mac Pro 8 Core (2 x 2.4 GHz) Intel Xeon with 64 GB RAM and four SSD drives.

    I am going to Los Angeles for a project of long months of work in July and need a same computer set up to use while I'm there.  It's too expensive/complicated to ship my computer to the United States, then I'll probably rent a machine in Los Angeles.

    I found in a place that I can rent a tower 2012 Mac Pro 12-Core (2.4 GHz) with 16 GB of RAM, and I wondered: if I take my four SSD drives and my RAM modules, then I simply transplant these pieces into the 12 basic machine and start as my home machine?  Or must I buy an additional empty SSD and use the Migration Wizard to clone my main boot drive?

    I've never done this before, so I don't know if the boot drive will recognize that it is connected to a computer with a different motherboard etc.

    Thanks for any help and advice,

    Laurent

    Change the RAM and the disc should be fine. I would take the sleds with your SSD and just slid the old sleigh and do drag in your.

  • Used Mac Pro mid-2012

    Hello

    I have a Mac Pro 2006 1.1 and still works very well with the updates, I did a couple of years with an SSD, ATI Radeon HD 5770 and

    24 GB memory Crucial and it is running Lion. I bought my computer nine at the end of 2006.

    However, I'm starting to look at investing in a new machine but used. I think the Mid Pro Mac 2012 (base 12). I checked the many tourist attractions, including Powermax and ebay. I have an idea of what the price from the 2012 used range, but I noticed that some sellers eBay out of California are selling the machines for a lot less. I reached out to a couple of them that have 100% of positive reviews to confirm the machines are original and not have been updated to older models that they were able to verify.

    Is there a reason the computers would be cheaper in California, but more expensive with a company like Powermax who

    is an authorized reseller of Apple products?

    My reasons for thinking a used model is that the new Mac Pro are too expensive for me right now. If a used computer can stand for 3 to 5 years, then it's worth as long as Apple ends not supported for the 2012 model. I use my computer for graphic design, rendering and video creation from time to time.

    Any feed back would be appreciated including all views on the purchase of the 2012 (Basic) machine 12 Mid.

    Thank you

    Very few Applications actually can enjoy more of a handful of kernels. Compressor is one, if use you it.

    Otherwise, these Macs tend to be I/O bound, this is why a SSD Boot drive gives them such a performance increase. If you can put the Source on a single disc, Destination on the drive of the anther, Scratch, on another drive and boot/system on an SSD you can see more actual performance increase that moving to 12 cores.

    If you do NOT need 12 cores, the differences between the model 2102 and the 2009 model are tiny.

    Hello @wrecksx,

    This is a great place to visit for a community support and HP! I see that the power LED flashes when in stand bye mode and you want to know how to stop. I would like to help.

    It is a feature of the printer when in sleep mode, the power LED flashes to warn that the printer is in sleep mode. When you touch the screen the power light goes back to a solid light. There isn't any way to change this feature.

    The printer should be turned off, unfortunately.

  • 32D1334B LCD TV - not light power light flashes red & Green

    I have a Toshiba 32D1334B LCD TV, it used to work perfectly well and then all of a sudden, it will not activate.
    When I plug in the TV, the power automatically light flashes red and green permanently. There is no way to turn on the TV; the screen remains black.

    I had to take off the back, watched and deleted all the parts, but can not see the obvious problems. I also a multimeter and power to the various sections of the TV is, but that's as far as my electrical knowledge goes!

    I don't really know what else to try, but I am very reluctant to throw away the TV that I know it's probably a unique piece that needs to be replaced to fix it. I searched online and others have reported the same problem exactly, but it had not resolved there always. Unfortunately, TV is more under warranty... If anyone has any suggestions or can provide any help, then it would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks in advance.

    If you find out how to fix it please let me know because my tv is the same.chris
