Does the apple usb superdrive work with an imac?

I have a new iMac and was surprised I couldn't burn a cd because there is no disc drive! Can the Apple USB Superdrive be used with the iMac? The product details do not mention compatability with an iMac, only MacBook Pro & Mac Mini.

According to http://www.apple.com/mac/compare/ it's compatible wtih the new iMacs.

  • Does The Apple USB Modem Work With The Mac mini ??????

    Just wanted to know if anyone has successfully used the new Apple USB Modem with the Mac mini, is it compatable ????
    Thank you for your input on this.
    Mike D.

    It says it works with the Mac mini, but does it really? I just received my modem yesterday and could not get it to work with my 1.42 mini - the more expensive one that comes without a dialup modem! I looked carefully at the specs and it appears the Apple USB modem requires Mac OS 10.4.3, not the 10.4.2 that comes with the Mac mini.
    Talk about stupid! And the mini docs say it comes with the "latest" version of Tiger. Not! So I can download the upgrade, I guess. IF I could get on the internet! This is extremely annoying. I guess I'll have to download the upgrade on another computer and transfer it somehow. Boy, those Apple guys sure are tech geniuses, aren't they???

    Thanks!

    It should. First, turn on BlueTooth on the computer. In BT preferences be sure to check the option to look for all devices. Your remote should be picked up and a notice asking if you want to Pair it with the computer. Select Yes. Once it is paired it can be used to control your computer.

  • Does the Apple Hardware test come with Snow Leopard?

    Does the Apple Hardware test come with my iMac 27" i7?
    If so, how is this activated and is it used as a periodic test or only when a problem develops?
    Thanks

    The Hardware Test will be on the Install DVD(s) that comes with your iMac. With the correct DVD inserted, (re)start the iMac while pressing & holding the "D" key to start into the HT. Run it anytime you want to check the hardware.

  • Does the new iMac coming in December have a dvd drive? If not can you use the Apple USB SuperDrive?

    Does the new iMac coming in December have a dvd drive? If not can you use the Apple USB SuperDrive?

    The soon to be released new iMacs don't have a DVD drive. I don't believe that Apple have updated their site to say their USB drive will work, but the expectation is that it will.
    I watched the keynote and when Phil Schiller was presenting the new models I think he mentioned something about it working and he had one on the desk next to the iMac.
    I'm going to check the keynote if it's still up and I'll update my post if I'm wrong.

  • Apple USB superdive working with Powerpc?

    Just wondering if any PowerPc users have any experience with trying to get the Apple USB Superdrive to work with their setup?
    My superdrive is not working very well for burning and occasionally reading discs and I was looking for a new one but thought maybe the USB one may prove to be a suitable replacement.
    What is the best dvd/cd drive to replace the existing defective USN drive in my G5 Powerpc?
    Thanks for any inputs.

    As its a USB connection I was curious to know why it would only work with a limited number of systems?
    Apple's superdrive draws more current than the USB standard's limit of 500mA.
    The listed compatible models are capable of ignoring the USB standard and supplying up to 1100mA to a SuperDrive, Aluminum Wired Keyboard, iPod, iPhone or iPad.
    It will never work with your G5 or anything but the listed compatible models since the drive directly communicates with the Mac OS to command the extra current.

  • Would the Apple Universal Dock work with any cables?

    Does anybody know if the Apple Universal Dock works with any A/V composite cables for video out from the iPhone or the Nano 3rd gen., or do I have to buy the Apple $50 cables too?

    I have a U2 iPod, and I can connect it to the TV with regular composite (RCA) splitter cables getting video and audio out.... I tried and now I know that I can't use the same cables to get video out of the iPhone or the 3 gen Nano, but I thought that using the Apple Universal Dock I could. So you are saying that even using the Dock I need the 30 pin to get video out?

    Will a USB Superdrive work with my mac booc pro?

    lorifromgermany,
    if you have a non-Retina MacBook Pro, the following command could allow a USB SuperDrive to work with it.
    Log in as an administrative user, open Terminal, run the following command within Terminal, close Terminal, and then restart your MacBook Pro:
    sudo nvram boot-args="mbasd=1"
    (When it asks you for a password, enter the administrative user’s password.)

  • Will the lightning USB adapter work with regular USB jump drives?

    Will the lightning USB adapter work with regular USB jump drives?

    Not really.
    Technically, with some USB drives (I've had a 50% success rate) you can import photos or videos off the drive - thi those photos or video follow a very strict naming convention.
    But you cannot import anything but photos or video and there is zero support to write off the iPad to the flash drive....so while it technically may work, it's so limited to effectively not work.
