Using an IMac and a G4 with the same keyboard

I have an IMac Intel and a G4 that I use in Classic mode. Is it possible to connect one keyboard (through a hub, possibly) so that I can use it on both computers. The computers are connected to each other so that I can use files from either. but now I have to physically move to a separate keyboard and I don't have the space for two.
IMac and G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

Apple Store has a 6 ft. listed as:
"Belkin 6ft A to B USB Cable" @ (yikes!) $16.95 - [Apple Part Number: T6898LL/A] but even that looks inexpensive next to Belkin's own:

Yes, it would act to extend the length - same concept as an electric ext. cord.
Obviously you wouldn't want to buy one, much less two, unless it was absolutely necessary, as you could almost buy a new computer desk for that much and set your Macs closer together. I've noticed a couple sell on eBay for about $5 plus shipping, but there shouldn't be many listings offering them. It seemed like a handy idea until I found the list price:(
My idea was it would be easy enough that you wouldn't even have to get up from your chair to change. Of course, there are less expensive computer equipment stores somewhere, and I myself bought a opened pkg from a Micro Center "sale" bin for only $4.95.

    Yes, No problem at all.
    Want to give one to wife.do I need to open a new iTunes account for her?
    No - you can share the same iTunes account (my wife and I share the same account). But when you sync the iPads, just remember to select the correct content for her iPad and the correct content for your iPad.

  • Using iphone 3GS and iphone 4 with the same account

    I have an iphone 3GS 32GB and yesterday i bought an iphone 4 32GB. I want to know how can i transfer everything from the "3GS" to "4" without loosing any data from applications i had already stored in "3GS". I also would like to know if it is ok to use the two phones with the same iTunes account and if it is possible to use applications i had purchased for the first phone to the second, or i need to buy the applications again.
    Thank you in advance

    Welcome to the discussions,
    After you set up your new phone, iTunes will ask you if you want to set it up "as new iphone" or restore it from an existing backup, which in your case would be the latest 3GS backup. So you can use this backup to restore all compatible settings and data to your new phone. See what's inside a backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    You can use more than one device in iTunes with the same account, and iTunes will remember the settings for each of those. Applications can also be used on more than one devices, but you'll have to use the same iTunes account.

  • I am a language intructor, can I use Adobe Presenter to work properly on both, English, and Spanish presentations with the same software?

    I am a language intructor, can I use Adobe Presenter to work properly on both, English, and Spanish presentations with the same software?

    It shouldn't be an issue. Ultimately, Presenter doesn't care what language the content or audio is in, it will deliver it just the same. The only issue I could see causing problems would be the player skin. It has Spanish lables, but they only show on a computer with the OS set to Spanish. If you want the student to view both and English and a Spanish version on the same computer, you may need to have two versions of the language.xml file where you have one that has the desired English lables in the "en" section and one where it has the desired Spanish labels in the "en" section. You would then swap these files in and out of the folder located at,C:\Users\{UserName}\AppData\Local\Adobe\Adobe Presenter\Themes , as you need to publish an English or Spanish presentation.

    You can use Parallels desktop or VM Fusion to run both operating systems at the same time. Both programs work well, but I personally perfer VM Fusion.

  • If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad  with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

    If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad  with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

    Actually, everyone missed one point, when a device is priced, the cost of icloud storage space for that device is also included in it that is why they are able to give you 5gb each for each user ID, in nutshell there is nothing free coming with apple device purchase, it is paid for.  What they are trying by giving only 5gb per user ID irrespective of the number of devices used is pure broadlight looting, they take money from you when you buy each device and give you nothing, This is a case of goods and services bought but not fully deliverd ie apple can be suied for discreminatory treatment towards it's users. I wonder why no one tried this yet in America where everyone sue everyone for petty things..... there is no one to take up this issue? . if tim got any love for the guys who shell out money for the devices his company makes, he should be implimenting this as priority before someone wake up from sleep and sue him.

  • Hi, I need help and advice. Basically me and my ex partner both had iphones and synced it with the same computer under the same ID. We split i have a new laptop and now it keeps asking for the old ID or it'll erase my apps bought on theold account.

    Hi, I need help and advice. Basically me and my ex partner both had iphones and synced it with the same computer under the same ID. We split up and now im trying to get all my apps and info onto my new laptop with a new account but it keeps asking me for the old apple ID which she is still using and she changed the password. i tried backing it up but still nohing. When i try to back up purchased items being apps etc its keeps asking for the old one. help

    See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. But you'll still need the password.
    Once you have the computer authorized to use the account she could change the password again to stop you buying apps on her card (assuming it's not on yours!). It would lock you out of upgrading them too but they should work unless she uses the deathorize all feature.
    It depends on how amicable the split is...

  • Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id

    Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id. When I use I tunes it get confusing and I have a paid app that needs the same id

    When syncing the iPhone and iPad with iTunes on your computer that is logged in with the Apple ID you plan on using on all three, the Apple ID should be transferred to the iPhone and iPad for the iTunes & App Stores on each device. If not, you'll need to sign out of the existing Apple ID on the iPhone and iPad followed by signing in with the Apple ID you want to use on both.
    Keep in mind that all 3rd party apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account or Apple ID that was used to download the apps. With an app installed on your iPad and iPhone that was downloaded with a different Apple ID from the one you will be using now, you will need to use that Apple ID and password to install app updates for those apps. Not possible to transfer apps purchased with one Apple ID to another or to merge Apple IDs.

    We performed similar transfer of data from one planning model to another using DM package linked to BADI. In your scenario there is additional complexity of doing lookup from DSO and should be possible.
    Also check these references for performing lookup in DSO.

  • F110- not able to clear the debit and credit entry with the same reference

    Hi,
    I am not able to clear the debit and credit entry with the same reference in F110 even after having the payment terms as immediate payment, payment method is maintained in document no and vendor master data. Both debit and credit entry is appearing in FBL1N as an open item but it is not appearing in F110.
    In Log message appear as 8 days grace period is existing whereas as payment term is just 0001- immediate payment.
    Kindly advice me what could be wrong.
    Thanks,
    Manya.

    Hi,
    Credit and debit balance in vendor account are not cleared automatically when only vendor line item has payment method and credit memo has not payment method. Also when there is not payment method maintained in vendor master data.
    In such case to avoid payment to vendor when vendor has debit balance we perform debit balance check.
    In second scenario when u2018individual paymentu2019 is selected in vendor master data vendor invoice and credit memo are not cleared automatically in F110.
    To setoff vendor credit and debit balance in F110 you to uncheck u2018individual paymentu2019 check in vendor master data > company code data > payment data.
    Thanks!

    firefox plays video, but no sound. when I type about:plugins in location bar, it shows the firefox default plugin is not enabled. When I look at my plugins, it says it is enabled. I have uninstalled 3.6 and re-installed with the same result. Why do I have no sound. Computer plays I-tunes and all other sounds, just no web browser sounds.

    Glad you seem to have sorted things out.
    The warning about the warranty is light hearted, I think at one stage it warned "here be dragons" but also intended to make us think as it warns that making changes may produce problems.

  • My iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?

    my iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?

    It's not entirely impossible actually as someone has pointed out to me that I can turn on Call Forwarding and that stops any incoming calls. I've just forwarded it to my google voice number and then turned on "do not disturb" in google voice and whenever I get a call it goes straight to my google voice voicemail and my phone does nothing. The only thing now is I still get text messages but I think the phone calls bugged me more because they would make my music turn off for much longer.
    Even though this isn't a perfect solution it's something so far so maybe you shouldn't just come out and say there's NOTHING I can do because so far I've found part of a solution. If you don't have anyting productive to say then just don't reply and close the tab. Thanks.
    At this point I'm wondering if anyone knows of any Jailbreak tweaks that can enable what I want. Unless of course it's agaisnt the rules of this forum to mention jailbreak stuff...
