mac pro (2013)

I'm new to Mac Pro, got the top model trash can and upgraded with 1 TB Aura SSD without reading too much about the possible complications. It's supposed to become a triple boot machine with 1) Mac OS 10.14, 2) the newest Mac OS at any given time (Sonoma right now) by using Open Core Legacy...

My top two favourite Mac designs have to be the Power Mac G4 Cube and the late 2013 Mac Pro (6,1). I’m so happy and grateful to have been able to get my hands on both, each for a really good price and in great condition. Figured they look really nice side by side exposing their internals and...

I have two old 27" Apple LED Cinema Displays that have power and the cable that slips into USB-A, MiniDisplay, and the magnetic alternate power option. That all runs out the back of the monitors. I'm currently using a 2013 Mac Pro (trash can) and will be finally upgrading to the current Mac...

Hello All, Thought I'd try my hand at a wallpaper for the gorgeous MP6,1 and have developed the following. Mostly done in Pages and some minor touch up work in Adobe Illustrator. Unfortunately it has some blemishes and in Night Shift shows up a section being greenish. If anyone can fix it and...

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...

I have a 2013 Mac Pro which is mostly upgraded but consistently get system freezes after a long duration of use or when it restarts, it says there it restarted because of a problem. Sometimes it does not even power off but instead comes back to life like something from the Walking Dead. I am...

I've been an Apple user for over 30 years and have owned many different Macs during that time. For me, the 2013 Mac Pro was the perfect desktop. It was my primary music production computer in my studio. It sat on my desk looking stunning right next to my monitor, it was almost completely...

I'm currently running a late 2013 Mac Pro that I've been holding back on upgrading. My 1TB Apple SSD is split into two HFS+ partitions, one Yosemite and one High Sierra. I'd like to reformat the High Sierra partition as APFS and install Monterey on it, while keeping the Yosemite partition intact...

Hello everyone, I have a Mac Pro (2018) https://appleinsider.com/inside/2018-mac-pro and I just purchased an Apple Studio Display and I would like to connect the two. The problem is that officially this appears to not be supported. https://www.apple.com/studio-display/specs/ I was thinking...

I recently purchased an maxed out Mac Pro 2013 (3.5ghz, D500, 128 GB Ram) to use as my main machine. Everything works fine as intended but i got really strange issues with this mac and gaming over geforce now. This Mac runs the latest supported MacOS (12.6.5), is connected direct to the Router...

2013 6,1 Mac Pro (Monterey OS) was running perfectly last week, and then over the course of 2-3 hours it completely flaked out. First file permissions changed and I couldn't move or delete files, open folders, etc on the desktop. Next Illustrator/Photoshop couldn't access the Preferences...

Hi I'm planning to buy an iPad to use it as a second screen with my 6,1. But I'm not sure the TrashCan can handle this... Has anybody done it ? Thanks

Hey, I was wondering if anybody tried to put two SSD in a TrashCan? Was looking at the two D300 and one has the SSD and the other not... What about if we put two D300, each of them being with a slot for the SSD? What do you think? Cheers

Hello, I have installed Ventura using OCLP along with the post install patches and video will not play. TV does not work even Hulu and Netflix nothing. Any ideas what I could do to fix this issue. I am running a late 2013 trashcan. Thanks in advance. Adam

I got my hands on one of the black “trash can” macs from around 2013 (MacPro 6.1). It is a base model. I was wondering if it is even worth upgrading the processor, drive and/or memory in 2022 as MacOS Ventura just dropped support for this model. I know it is powerful enough to last for another...

tl;dr One very hot top-spec MBP 16", no high-end iMac Pro/5k available, and Mac Studio is 💸💸. Will a Trash Can solve it? At present... I am a software engineer, having used Apple's hardware since 2008 at university. iMac, for me, is still my favourite machine they make. I've a top spec 16" MBP...

so, I have an unusual thing going on. Working on a Late 2013 MacPro with dual D500's and when in OSX Monterey I can set the resolution on a 43" Samsung up to 3840 x 2160 @30Hz. This is all done over HDMI to HDMI. I tried DP to HDMI because the Samsung doesn't have a DP, only HDMI. Funny thing...

Mac Pro 6.1 (2013) A1481 Does anyone know where I can send a Logic or Motherboard for Mac Pro 6.1 (2013) A1481, to be refurbished/repaired to working condition. NOTE: just the Logic Board I have 3 ready for repair so it would be worth it if someone is up to the task. I am located in Thailand, so...
