IPod 30GB will not work with 3rd party USB 2.0 PCI card

I've had an IOGear PCI USB 2.0 card (GIC220U-BIO) in my Sawtooth for some time now, and have been using it flawlessly with my Canon i860 printer, and Canon LiDE 30 Scanner.
Just recently I received a Video iPod (30GB) and wanted to take advantage the high speed USB bus offered on that card to sync my iPod. The problem is, when I plug in the iPod to the USB port on that card, I get the transparent gray box telling me that I need to restart my mac by pushing the reset switch, or holding the power button for several seconds (in other words, freezes).
The iPod works fine with the built-in USB ports (albeit slow), as well as the high speed port on my iBook G4. Why am I getting this error? There are no drivers or firmware updates for this PCI card available.
Is there a solution?

Yes, use a different USB 2.0 PCI card, like from Sonnet. I use a Sonnet in a G5 and it works great. There are (at least) 2 USB chipsets and I find the TI ones are great and the other not so great.
The fact it works on 1.1 and the 2.0 on the G4 at least tells you it is not the iPod and a USB 2 card is $20 or $30 at the most.

  • IPhone, iPod Touch will not work with Skullcandy Icon2,  Icon 2

    I pulled my Skullcandy Icon 2 's out for my ski trip and found that the mic and control had stopped working with my iPhone. Thinking that the Mic/Button had broke I went out and picked up a new pair, which also didn't work.
    Both sets of head phones were tried on an iPhone 3g, iPod Touch 1st Gen. and iPod Nano 3rd gen. None of which would allow control of the devices in music mode or call answer.
    To rule out a defective headset, I connected them to my friend's phone, a HTC Hero. The controls on the Icon 2 would play and pause any music program, including Pandora including controlling calls, (answer, mute and hang up).
    I haven't found anything other then lint in the head phone jack to as a solution to this. (not a solution for me).
    If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
    Hardware Info:
    Skullcandy Icon 2 Purchased 2009-2010

    Has this worked for you in the past? I am under the impression that your units are older and do not support this functionality. See <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3310>.
    I'm interested in what you find out

  • Firewire iSight not working with 3rd party software on Leopard

    I just installed OSX Leopard and not able to use firewire isight on any program other than ichat. I use 3rd party software for video conferencing (educational setting) and need an external iSight so as to position the camera on larger groups. Anyone have any suggestions?

    My external iSight is working fine with QuickTime Pro, iMovie, Photo Booth (v2).
    If http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93240 does not get things working, and especially if your problem is only with your 3rd party app, contact the developer to see if there are known issues with Leopard.

  • Will not charge with 3rd party chargers when asleep

    My iphone 3g does not charge when plugged into a 3rd party charger and the phone is asleep. I can confirm that its not charging because the phone is still out of battery even after being plugged in overnight, and the griffin charger has a LED indicator that shows if its actively charging or not. I tired this with both a Griffin iphone charger and a Belkin charger.
    When waking up the phone though, it of course shows that its charging. It took me a while to figure out that it wasnt chargin when it was asleep.
    Does this happen to anyone else?

    Do these chargers say that they are made to work with iphone?
    The iphone 3g does not charge via firewire pins as the original did. This could be your problem.
    There are many posts on charging issues due to firewire compatibility. You can do a forum search to find out more.

  • IPod touch will not work with USB 2.0 PCI Card?

    I have a dual processor PowerMac G4 that has USB 2.0 via a PCI card. When I plug in the iPod nothing at all happens. I haven't read anything about PCI cards not being compatible with the touch. Is anyone else having this problem?

    Just thought I'd add my 2 cents...I've got the same problem...I've had a Keyspan USB 2.0 5 port card in my Dual MDD G4 for years and it's worked fine. Well, until a few days ago when I tried updating some stuff on our iPods. It would initially start working then lose connection. Now nothing at all with 5 iPods. It won't even show up on the desktop under Disk Mode. I did the same and it works fine under the old stock USB 1.0 but slooooooowwww. Is this yet another problem with Leopard? I've searched the Keyspan site and they don't have any updated drivers. Guess I'll look for a Belkin as well...ugh!!! Leopard is horrible! First no printer drivers, then no iSub support, now this!

    In order to use iMessage efficiently, add the country code to the mobile number prefix by of your contact and their iMessage ID. You will notice then when selecting the contact name in the TO, the green shade will turn into blue shade. It means your message will be sent as iMessage. Notice if you are sending message to non imessage user, the shade of the contact name is green. It means the message will be sent as text message.

    I am unable to set up any 3rd Party email client with iCloud email. I have looked at the instructions at Apple with no success. I just spent an hour on the phone with support and they tell me this in not their problem. Yet Outlook, thunderbird all say it is their problem so flustering.

  • Image preview not working with 3rd party photo apps in iPhoto/Image Capture

    I haven't had a problem until recently with the iPhone 4. Pictures taken with third party photo apps such as Shake It Photo or Hipstamatic no longer generate a thumbnail preview in either iPhoto or Image Capture. It's just a generic jpg icon. All pictures taken with Apple's camera app appear just fine. I also had a problem where I couldn't import any of the photos, but I restarted the phone a couple times and that seemed to fix the importing issue, but not the thumbnail preview issue. This is particularly weird because i've been importing pictures since the first day this phone came out, and it's only been doing this since yesterday.
    I know a lot of people are having problems getting their iPhoto to recognize the phone at all or that there are photos on the phone, but is anyone else having the same problem as me? Any solutions? I have iPhoto 8.1.2.
    Thanks!

    I have this issue but didn't recognize it until I read your post. I thought it was 2 bad photos.
    I'll subscribe to this tread to see if anyone comes up with a fix.

  • 3rd gen iPod Nano will not sync with latest version of iTunes. It passes the connectivity test but not the sync test under diagnostics.  Worked fine on old Windows 7 laptop but not new one.  From Control Panel it shows up as an Apple iPod USB Device...

    Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
    There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok.

    Hi,
    It seems there is nothing to do with IE mode.
    Please make sure your link still can be accessed.
    The WebBrowser displays HTML content in applications running in a Silverlight 4 or later out-of-browser applications or in Silverlight 5 in-browser trusted applications only.

    2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore?  It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store?  Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

    Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
    The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
    If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

  • IPod will not work with docking stations

    My 5th gen iPod works fine except it will not work with docking stations. I can sync it with my computer and it plays fine, just won't work with docking stations and other accessories like the Belkin FM radio converter. I bought a iMode boom box and it does not work properly with my iPod.
    Any ideas??

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
