2010 Mac Pro no video
by Guest shifty55- 0 replies

Hi, I have a 2010 mac pro dual CPU, 2 x 6 core Xeon X5650, 128 GB memory distributed across the 8 slots. I purchased this computer a little over a year ago, and installed a Nvidia Quadro K5000. I used OpenCore Legacy Patcher to upgrade to Monterey about a month ago. It was all running fine for the past year, including following the upgrade of the OS. About one week ago, the graphics became scrambled. I switched to the other port on the graphics card with return of the normal picture. A... Read more Source: MacRumors

2010 Mac Pro Turning Itself Off
by Guest steveyraff- 0 replies

Hey guys, I have a 2010 Mac Pro tower that runs my recording studio (2.66GHz Nehalem Quad Core). All I really use it for is Logic Pro X, and not really much else, asides from associated plugin software. A few years ago, it started randomly turning itself off. While working, it'd be just fine. Sometimes I would power it up and it'd stay on for hours, other times, just for a few minutes. I sent it to the nearest Apple Store (Belfast), and they were a bit of a disaster with it. I kept...

2011 iMac LCD number
by Guest /u/808DaScott- 0 replies

Idk if this is the correct flair but let me get into topic. I have a late 2011 iMac and I’m wondering if there is an easier way to find out what the LCD number panel is so I can order a display controller board from AliExpress to turn my IMac into a monitor. Anyways and again, how do I find the LCD display number? It goes like for example, LM270WQ1-SDB1. submitted by /u/808DaScott [link] [comments]

I have a 2012 Mac Pro 5,1 64 Gigs RAM, dual 3.46 GHz, & Radeon RX580 GPU. I had Monterey installed and it was working fine. Then I decided to install OCLP 2.1.2 and Sonoma, then I got this screen/page saying my Mac Pro was owned by Texas State University asking to enroll, and I couldn't go any further. I reached out to their IT dept and they were willing to help but could not find my machine. They said that they no longer use that system and maybe my Mac Pro wasn't cleaned of that MDM. I...

Last night, I had left this computer on for 8 continuous hours trying to export a video that I was editing on it. This morning, it had worked perfectly fine. I had tried - Resetting SMC - Resetting PRAM/NVRAM - Disconnecting the battery - Removing and reinserting RAM sticks Nothing works. Funnily enough, last time it was fully operational, it was on Windows 11. I dualboot macOS 15 and W11. Any help please? My specs: - Intel i7-3615qm - Intel HD Graphics 4000 1gb vram - Nvidi…

2013 IMac with broken glass
by Guest /u/BlackBeardedMan- 0 replies
- 15 views
The machine according to the title is in use. Works ok. Even though that broken glass is not a major problem I was wondering possibility to change the display. It has no appreciable monetary value so I might take this risk. And maybe learn something new. If I understood it correctly you can’t replace only glass part of it? How about display models. Are there different models for example in year 2013? If so, should I detach display and find part number or something? From where should I buy a new display? China?

2013 Mac Pro - GPU A and left side Memory Banks not detected. Logic board issue?
by Guest MrMacintoshBlog- 0 replies
- 7 views
I just picked up a 2013 Mac Pro that needed some work. I was able to get it running, but GPU A and the 2 left side memory slots do not detect memory (memory beep errors). I checked and my Pram battery is still sending out correct voltage and I reset the SMC just to be sure. It was shipped to me, so I'm not sure if it maybe took a hit along the way (maybe a reseat of the cable connectors?) Do this mean that the main logic board & GPU A are failing? Source: MacRumors

Hello there, I have the opportunity to buy a Mac Pro 6.1 at a low price (about $150). The specs are one of the weaker ones available - quad-core processor, d300 and 32GB ram. I am currently using a Lenovo Y700 laptop with an i5-6300HQ processor, GeForce GTX960m and 16GB ram along with an additional 24-inch fullHD monitor. I would be using this computer mainly for graphic design in photoshop and illustrator (later maybe after effects). I would buy a 27 inch monitor for it (2560x1440) and... Read more Source: MacRumors

2013 Mac Pro 6.1 TB connections and heat
by Guest Php4u- 0 replies

I recently purchased a 2013 6,1 with 6-core Xeon, 32GB memory, and dual D700s. I just installed a 2TB Sabrant Rocket (from an old project) and get R/W speeds of 1400. My questions are: 1) what cables to use to connect dual monitors? I am thinking DisplayPort to TB2 cables. Will I get 60Hz? 2) Is anyone using a fan under the device to cool it off? I can feel a lot of heat on top. 3) Do you see any value in upgrading to an 8 or 10-core Xeon? I do a little graphics work with Luminar Neo, Word... Read more Source: MacRumors

I have a 2013 Mac Pro. This machine is used exclusively in my recording studio. OS 10.14.6. Sometimes when I try to shut the computer down it sticks on the black screen with spinning gray wheel and will never shutdown, even if left over night. I have to hold the power button to force a shutdown. The issue seems to be that the external hard drives do not unmount. I can tell when this is going to happen because when I click "ShutDown" the two front panel lights on my thunderbolt G Drives do... Read more Source: MacRumors

Hi, I have a 2013 Mac Pro (known as trashcan) - and I am trying any way I can right now to reduce the amount of electricity it uses, which is a lot! (compared to modern M1 Macs) - I have it plugged into a wattage meter and as soon as I turn it on it's burning over 150w (with no apps open yet) - this seems to me to be using a lot of power in what is essentially 'idle' . . . when I am using some apps and then go into sleep mode the power consumption does not drop, it's between around 150w and...
