Stereo inputs for ripping Lps on a g3 B&W, how can I do it?
First time caller / first time mac.
I just finished reviving a G3 system to use as a sort of retro-jukebox, only to realize that the mic input is mono only. Is there a pci card that I can get that will allow me to input a stereo line/mic level signal?
I am looking for a prosumer level of quality. Can i hack into the cd audio line that comes out of the back of the cd-drive? Or will that only work under os 9? Are there any other inputs on the motherboard that will take a stereo signal? I am ready with a soldering iron if need be.
Any sugestions would be greatly appreciated.
Can i use iTunes for Lp recording to mp3 and will it split tracks?

As far as my CPU, I just recently added it, and am still making up my mind about whether it was a good upgrade from my previous OWC 533MHz G4. The Beige bus is already at 66MHz, so I don't have the bus-reduction issue of the B&W when used with this particular CPU upgrade. You might find some user reports of that CPU in the B&W at
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com
and see if they note any difference. I imagine potentially it may have some impact on PCI devices that really require the higher bus speed, but aren't most of those cards backwards compatible so they should function at either bus speed? I guess it depends on how performance sensitive your applications/hardware is and the trade-off you get with the faster CPU. I would guess that, typically the devices or interfaces themselves are the bottleneck, not the system bus, but that might not be true in all cases.
Off-topic - My one complaint with my Beige Desktop, is that the main reason I wanted to max out the CPU, and PCI graphics, was to get better performance with games like Nanosaur, OttoMatic, Enigmo, etc. but now I get random system freezes, also during DVD playback, after a few minutes of play. XPlane v6 and v8 also crash on me, the display just freezes and I get no response, I can usually reboot immediately just fine. I'm not totally sure what the culprit is, as I did several simultaneous upgrades, the 1GHz CPU, ATI Radeon 9200, and 10.4.7. My system had been very stable with a OWC 533MHz G4, ATI Radeon Mac Edition, and 10.3.9, but performance in the games was not very good. So, my maxed out sytem may be taxing the power supply or possibly overheating, I'm not sure. For normal Office apps, e-mail and internet use it is stable and fairly snappy. Booting, starting Classic and opening apps is faster now, but as far as my original goal of trying to upgrade to a semi-usable gaming machine, my attempt was futile. I might downgrade back to 10.3.9 and see if that helps. Eventually I will devote this machine to serve as a digital jukebox and photo album and get a newer machine for primary use and games, so it will probably continue to work well for a few more years. Adding the hardware has been a learning and enjoyable experience, if not an expensive one.

Can not update iTunes because I have iMac with 10.5.8 . How I will sync my iphone 6.0 with an older version of iTunes on my iMac???? There is no update for the software of my iMac and no update for the iTunes.... So how can I sync????
Requirements for iPhone 5:
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
iTunes 10.7 or later
The highest version of iTunes you can install is 10.6.3 which will not sync with the iPhone 5.

It's always a good idea to check the requirements before purchasing.
The person I spoke with at 1-800-MY-APPLE gave me totally different info...she said the iPhone 5 would in fact sync with the older version of iTunes and that I could restore from my previous iPhone 4 backup and also bring in my music that way. Hmmm....
I'm inclined to go by the published specs, but now I have to jump thru a bunch of hoops I wasn't expecting to. -

the ipad'osby media pro' could not be synced because this computer is not authourised for purchased item that are on this ipad.how can i solve this proble,i've authourised it several times
Hello, osbybass.
Thank you for the question. This alert can mean that iTunes is recognizing applications on the iPad purchased by another Apple ID. If anyone in your household has an Apple ID, try authorizing the computer with their Apple ID and attempt to sync. If you are still experiencing issues, go through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article.

When I try to activate my prepaid CC card I get: "This card was purchased in a country that does not match your Adobe ID." I bought it in the USA for use here in the UK...how can I activate it? It is a student edition. Thanks
I don't know that you can purchase in one country and use it in another. Try contactoing Adobe support thru chat:

I have it set up on both of mine and I know she has the app what I would have to check is if it is enable in hers, although prior to the cancellation of service she used to be able to make the calls, my concern is why I can't which is possible that it needs to be enable. Thank you!

My MacBook Air is in a support profile for one of my Apple IDs while all my other devices are in a support profile for a different one of my Apple IDs; how can I combine under one?
Actually, this can be done without merging Apple IDs, as I found just by trying this out: I went into the support profile for the Apple ID that had only my Mac listed. I then chose to disassociate the Mac from that Apple ID. I signed out and signed in using my other Apple ID (the one with all my other Apple devices). I chose to add/register a new device, entered my Mac's serial number, and now it is associated with all my other Apple devices under a single Apple ID. No merger of Apple IDs required.

another option is to download and install the portable firefox version from the next link, if you want to use it occasionally : http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Ed./
portable version is more flexible, and you can delete it any time without worries

I for got the answers of my security questions, how can restart the security questions?
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 -
Since converting my mobileme account into an icloud account, my free 5GB of storage has become a paid for extra 20GB without my requesting it. How can this happen, and has anyone else had this happen to them?
To clarify: you are not being charged for the extra storage - it's complimentary to reflect the fact that you had storage in MobileMe. At the end of June it will disappear unless you care to pay to renew it.

Hello, I wanted to update my Mac OS 10.5.2 and i am using dial up modam, Once the machine will ask to restart for updation modem application also close, please suggest how can i update
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.

To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
