When you repair vs. replace an older MacPro

I currently own a MacPro (early 2009) that has 4 internal drives and 30 "monitor Apple.  It is now over 6 years and if I understand the Apple repair staff that the model will be soon declared "obsolete" and parts are no longer available at Apple.  However, I don't see any new Mac that has internal disks or separate monitor which makes sense as a substitution. Recently, Techtool Pro software showed fan and two of the four drives internal default.  Any ideas as to what age of the MacPro represents the best guess from time to replace rather than repair it?  If I replace the discs now and install an SSD, it will be near the additional investment of $1,000 in the old computer.

I fix a 2009 and later silver Mac Pro Tower.

You can find fans of replacement on eBay and other places.

You can also ways use the drives in an external case for new readers are a good investment.

  • FileNotFound exception when you try to replace or delete a picture in CF8. Why?

    I have CF8 Standard Edition is installed in my server and when I try to use CFIMAGE to overwrite the file sent by a resized, or to write an image previously resized with ImageResize or ImageScaleToFit, I get an internal server error caused by a java.io.FileNotFoundException with some images, a lot actually. In other words, the error occurs because the system cannot find the file to replace.

    Apparently the jrun.exe process preserves the original image blocked in a way that still rejects change of file name. I used the same version of CF in an older server and everything runs smoothly, but when I had to change the server and migrate my sites I found this problem. The server is IIS7 on Windows Server 2008 operating system. Of couse any CMS without the appropriate image management is unnecessary, it is a crucial issue for me.

  • First CC2015 - why the functionality Alt + Shft has changed when you try to replace a sequence on the chronology of the tray?

    I frequently and drag a sequence from the tray to replace an earlier version of it on the timeline. I use Alt-shift to keep that all mount points. This feature has changed. It replaces the old sequence with the first clip from inside the new nested sequence. Is this a bug? Is there a way to get around this?

    On an iMac, retina 5K, Yosemite, all software up to date.

    Hi Ted,

    ALT + SHIFT + do drag works very well in 2015 with clips - just re-tested. I'll try also with nested sequences, but if the problem is with nested seq, consult your option "insert and replace sequences as nests or individual sequences' on top left of your sequence died.

    Hello

    I installed an Alfred Workflow (see code below) that will mark all my mails as read. After you run it for a minute, the mail has crashed and I had to forcequit. However, now, when you open the Mail it crashes instantly, even after restart and repair the permissions. I also used the Ctrl + C and CTRL-Z commands in the Terminal to leave the alfred_script, but nothing helped. I'm running out of ideas here, so I hope you could help me either reinstall the mail.app. I could always just switch to a different mail application, but it's kind of a last resort.

    Code:

    Tell application "Mail".

    Define allAccounts on each account name

    Repeat with currAccount in allAccounts

    the unreadMboxes value (each mailbox to the account currAccount the unread number is not 0)

    Repeat with currMbox in unreadMboxes

    (read status of each message to currMbox including the playback State is set to false) true value

    end repeat

    end repeat

    tell the end

    Any input would be greatly appreciated. Can post the report of crash on demand.

    Not sure that Alfred's, but it's just an Applescript script and it would not cause Mail to be planted.

    However, when running through all the messages, it is possible Mail database has been corrupted and it crashes because of this.

    I'll probably get anything out of the accident report, but others might.

    My first instinct would be to rebuild the mailbox. Because you can't do that with him crashing, you can simply delete the databases and it will rebuild them.

    Navigate to this folder:

    ~/Library/Mail/v3/MailData/

    You can either manually through the files, or copy the full path and paste it into go the folder in the menu go to the Finder.

    Remove the envelope Index files. Open Mail and see if it works well.

    If your library does not appear in your folder, hold down the Option key and select library in the menu go to in the Finder.

  • Why isn't my old watch backup appear in the list when you set up the replacement or new shows?

    Why isn't my old watch backup appear in the list when you set up the replacement or new shows?

    I've been upgraded to a new watch, and during the installation of my phone would not offer a restore of backup.  The problem is that the factory OS on the new watch was 2.0.1 while backup of my old watch watch OS 2.1.

    I had to implement the new shows like new, then update the OS 2.1, désapparier it and pair it again.  It gave me the option to restore the backup of the original watch origin.

    [Must be like the iPhone backups, you cannot restore a backup of a newer operating system that the phone is running.]

    3. Name the shortcut (for example: Microsoft Home) and click Finish
    4. Right-click on the new shortcut and select Properties
    5. In the target box, arrow over until the end of the path, add a space and add -new (WEBSITEPATH). When your finished, your path should look like this:
      "" C:\Program may Explorer\IEXPLORE. "." "EXE" - new www.microsoft.com
    6. Click OK and try it!
    Let me know if it works or if I can be of further assistance!

  • Sometimes when you view an Acrobat file created by others, square replace some characters.  How can I stop this?

    Sometimes when you view an Acrobat file created by others, square replace some characters.  How can I stop this?

    Hi John -.

    It seems that no one has answered your question. Sorry for the long wait!

    Squares can replace characters when you're dealing with missing fonts, or who are poorly integrated. It is important to see the text, you can ask the person creating the document to convert the PDF image pages PDF file, which then displays the fonts.

    Places instead of the characters may appear if you are using a scanned page, for example and capture the text.

  • Mirage Pivot fails when you are using software that replaces the Windows Login (GINA) as Imprivata

    When you try to perform a migration recently at a client site the pivot process has not completed as planned because of Imprivata. Imprivata is a SINGLE sign that seems to replace the Windows GINA and provides a custom login screen.

    During an attempt of the Pivot process (Mirage 4.3) the start of Windows Update screen does not appear and the standard Windows login is displayed. When you manually login customer Mirage shows the USMT process is underway. This allows users to log in and is generally not the process but it does not complete the USMT process and join the domain.

    This is due to the customer Imprivata, although we suspect that would happen with any product which replaces GINA of Windows.

    Workaround solution:

    We are uninstalling the client of the base image Imprivata and try to apply this to be an application layer or display the migration script.

    Has anyone else had this problem with a SINGLE sign or a custom GINA solution?

    Peter

    We have removed Imprivata and the process worked ok. We are now reinstall using the post migration script that works

    When you create a new site to replace your existing it publish you it to a new or existing site?

    To replace or update an existing site, you must select the same site when downloading.

    If you create the new site then it will not replace the existing but would create a new site itself.
