How to send data processing to a different computer [closed]

http://serverfault.com – So right now I have a Mac Pro 8 core and a Macbook Pro. My Macbook pro does have enough power to do some of the rendering processing i need to do. I was wondering how can i set it up so that i can plug into my Mac Pro so that when im doing heavy processing it would send it to my Mac Pro and not use my Macbook pro processors. I do have Mac OSX sever and am running mountain lion on both computers. I read online that could use Xgrid to set up a cluster computer type set up, but im worried that this would than make my Mac Pro unable to be used as a regular computer. Thanks john (HowTos)

I have been trying to dual boot my mid-2012 Macbook Pro running OSX Mountain Lion with Ubuntu 12.10 with a disk and a USB, and none of them are working.

For the past six months, I’ve heard the same thing over and over again: “The MacBook Pro with the retina screen looks amazing. I want that screen on a MacBook Air. That would be the perfect computer.” Well, we’re almost there. Not quite.

I have a MacBook Pro and I'm running Mountain Lion on there currently. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on the best method to allow me to remote control my Ubuntu Desktop with my MacBook Pro.

I've been reading into VNC some, but was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations.

Hi all,

I need some advice on removing Ubuntu from my macbook. I have OS X Mountain Lion, Ubuntu and Windows 7 installed and would like to keep just OS X Mountain Lion and Windows 7. I use rEFIt to boot and would like to remove that as well.

I am trying to make a boot disk for my newly built computer and completely failing- desperately, desperately need some help.

Using a macbook to write it. Neither CD or USB will work. On my macbook I am getting an error that says the disk is invalid/computer can't read it.

Well, I have been unable to use any Linux Live Cd to reset the frozen state of my MBPr. I would load Live Ubuntu Cd and the suspend the computer (to set the status of the harddrive to 'not frozen') but the computer never awakes from sleep. The screen is black and I have to force restart. Has anyone have any success sleeping and waking the MBPr from a Live CD?

Rsync keeps writing 41 weeks 5 days ago

I just recently updated my macbook pro to Mountain Lion. I use rsync to make backups of certain directories on my macbook pro my timecapsule wireless router with build-in harddisk.

rsync -avzm --delete --exclude-from '/some_dir/exclude_list.txt' \ /Volumes/Data/some_other_dir /Volumes/TimeCapsule/some_other_dir/ \ 2>> ~/tmp/sync_error.txt

Before Mountain Lion everything worked fine.

Apple’s new MacBook Pro with Retina Display, HDMI, up to 768GB of SSD, quad core 3rd-gen Core and more is definitely for you, despite what an online article says.

{loadposition alex08}An article writer in the US says the new MacBook Pro is “not for you”, in some kind of elitist, “you can’t afford it anyway” kind of way.

I have clean installed centos, apache, mysql, php and have my php pages running fine at 192.168.1.66. I type that ip in on another computer (macbook) on the same network and get nothing. Page time out. I also don't see the linux machine showing up in my network list in finder.

I have tried adding port 80 to iptables but still no joy.
