4th and 5th generation not compatible with firewire charger

I recently upgraded my first generation ipod (40gb) with a fifth gen ipod nano. My question is why should I have to pay for a new charger for the ipod? I want an alternative to always having to charge my ipod with my computer. I have the plug with my original ipod that has the firewire attachment but was told that Apple has weaned away from firewire hookups. I understand that things change over time but I don't feel that I should have to pay for a new one when I already have one. I'd be willing to send this plug into Apple in exchange for a new one. I'm am extremely frustrated and angry if I have to pay for a new plug.

You don't have to pay anything.
Charge it via the USB on the computer.
I'd be willing to send this plug into Apple in exchange for a new one.
Say, I've got an old iPod. It doesn't do video but I'd be willing to send it to Apple in exchange for a new one.
Whatya' think?

Again, you don't have to. But if you want a new charger, you will have to purchase one unless someone is willing to give you one.

    Can the Ipod 4th and 5th Generation be used as GPS? With the app Waze and under Wifi?

    Mini-education...
    GPS signals are separate from and completely unrelated to both the Internet and the cellular telephone network.  GPS signals come directly from the GPS satellites.  They provide signals that allow GPS receivers to calculate latitude and longitude information.  Navigation software then takes that latitude/longitude info and converts it to land mass, roads, bridges, highways, buildings, etc.
    Most navigation software stores the maps right in the iPad/iPod/iPhone but a disadvantage is that the maps must be periodically updated (perhaps once every two years).  The Internet is not required to use the system but it is required to update the maps.
    Some navigation software gets the maps from the Internet and requires an Internet connection to function but an advantage is that the maps are always up-to-date.
    The WiFi+3G/4G iPad and the iPhone both have a GPS receiver.  The WiFi-only iPad and the iPod do not and these devices require an accessory.

  • The new firefox 33.1 and 34 are not compatible with my school Blackboard account

    I have used Firefox since it was first introduced. I prefer it to MS Explorer. However the new Firefox, 33.1 and 34 are not compatible with my school Blackboard account, so I had to delete Firefox and use Explorer. I would prefer to use Firefox. Is an earlier version (Prior to 33.1) still available?

    It's been a few years since we have had many questions about Blackboard compatibility with Firefox, but overall the problems in that past had to do with either Blackboard not updating in a timely manner ''[which I don't think is the case any longer]'' OR the school wasn't running the latest version of Blackboard software ''[which considering the current state of many government budgets, may be the case now.]''.
    ''It appears that - http://www.blackboard.com/ - is a new or greatly modified website, as the bookmarks I have saved for reference pages on their website come as 404, so I can't find the information I have used in the past.''
    My advice is to install Firefox Portable ESR to your hard drive for use at that Blackboard website and continue to use Firefox 34 for other purposes. The "portable" version will instal and use a Profile that is totally separate from your regular Firefox installation - so you can have two separate Firefox versions installed without any problems.

    '''ESR''' stands for Extended Support Release.

  • HT1349 I need to restore back to 1.0 on my Nano as iTunes upgraded automatically to 1.2 and it's not compatible with my car device. Where can i download the ispw and ispw.signature files for 1.0 ?

    I don't think it's possible if you are stuck in recovery mode but I may be wrong...
    Since your device qualifies for iOS 8(.1), that is the version that will be downloaded/restored to the iPad.
    I do know that you can restore your iPad (from backup & as new) and keep the same iOS version if you restore using the iPad itself under Settings/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings but since you can't access this because your stuck in recovery mode, the point is moot.
    Have you tried downloading the update in the middle of the night (2 am or so) where dropouts are much less likely to occur?
    It's always possible to take your device in to an Apple Store (make a Genius Bar reservation first) and do the iOS update there in the Apple Store.. I'm sure they will gladly help you out with it and not charge you a thing. The trouble with that would be if you don't have an Apple Store nearby.
    Sorry I couldn't be of any more help.

    A PPC G5 cannot run any version of OS X beyond Leopard 10.5.8.
    You should be able to find a Leopard retail (black) install disk on eBay. A grey update disk is machine specific and won't work.

  • I installed version 3.6.13 and discovered that my favorite search engines (Bing and Startpage) were not compatible with this version. Can this incompatibility be rectified?

    I installed version 3.6.13 and discovered that my favorite search engines (Bing and Startpage) were not compatible with this version. Can this incompatibility be rectified?

    Makes enough sense and I thought it might be a profile issue, but only after the fact, so why does is not say this upfront ...
    In the release notes I find this about installation:
    -- and exactly what I read:
    [[http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/4.0b7/releasenotes/]]
    Installing
    Please note that installing Firefox 4 Beta will not overwrite your existing installation of Firefox. You won’t lose any of your bookmarks or browsing history, but some of your extensions and other add-ons might not work until updates for them are made available.
    nothing more nothing less... nowhere in that installation process does it say, state or imply -- Create a new profile first -- or see xxxxx article about using betas /pre-release, etc...
    Well, I could cry about it more, but I guess not too many other people have had this problem, I did search a bit before posting my question , and I consider myself pretty competent about this kind of stuff..
    Next task ... ... ... Is there any place a backup is stored in the profile folders that have maybe my 3.6.12 Extensions and Extensions settings????
    I know the main folder is located here " %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ "
    but I am not currently on that particular PC to look at it to see if I can figure it out myself.
    So any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!
    I may have a backup created recently with MozBackup 1.4.10, but again I will have to look on that PC when I get back there tomorrow... ... ...
    So any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!
    Thanks for your time

  • Firefox 5 has just downloaded and it is not compatible with my google toolbar, so I cannot easily have my icons etc . Please sort this out.

    Firefox 5 has just downloaded and it is not compatible with a google toolobar, so I cannot have the icons present as before. This is very annoying.

    This was also asked here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/837142
    Google Toolbar is an addon, and every addon has a maximum version number set by the addon developers. Google Toolbar apparently is compatible with Firefox 5, and the only reason it doesn't work is because the Google developers have not updated their toolbar's maximum version number. You can either wait for them to do so, or follow the directions at the link above to change the number yourself.

  • Cannot update to 3.5 on older MacPro and 3.5 not compatible with 3.4.5

    It appears that you cannot update Aperture to 3.5 on older Macs. Worse yet the new update is not compatible with the previous version.
    The questions are  ---
    Is this a temproary issue or a permanent issue?
    Can I regress back to version 3.4.5 to get my compatibility back ?
    I have multiple computers I use to work on my photography.
    I use a older Mac Pro Vintage late 2007 that cannot be updated beyond OS 10.7.5. This is currently my primary photo computer.
    With 3ghz Quad cores and over a terabyte of drive space no need to update yet except for not being able to load the latest OS.
    I also use a MacBookPro Vintage Late 2011 and it was just updated to Mavericks. I use this to edit my photos on the go.
    I will consider updating to the latest Mac Pro when it becomes available but what to do until then and a warning to others.

    Actually, I had this same problem - accidentally upgraded my library on my Mac Air to 3.5, but am not running Aperture 3.5 on any of my other, older Macs.  I *was* able to downgrade the library back to 3.4.5.  BAsically, I had to open the library on a computer running Aperture 3.4.5 in library repair mode (holding down command and option when opening).  In the ensuing dialog I had to choose to rebuild the library.  I first tried just repairing, and it seemed to work, but next time I opened Aperture I got the "library can't be opened iwth an older version of Aperture" message.  Rebuilding it seems to have done the trick.
    A more detailed explanation (though not written for this particular scenario) is here:
         http://www.apertureexpert.com/faq/common-aperture-questions-issues-and-rep/how-d o-i-repair-or-rebuild-my-aperture-library-or-permission.html
    Having restored the library to 3.4.5 format, I downgraded Aperture on my Air to 3.4.5 as well and it's been smooth sailing.  Just make sure you have Mavericks set up to *NOT* automatically update your apps, or you'll end up in the same situtation all over again when it silently upgrades Aperture to 3.5 again.
    Good luck!

  • I have Webroot Security and Firefox is not compatible with the malicious URLs part of the program? How do I protect myself?

    When I downloaded Firefox and was checking my extensions, I was advised that Firefox is not compatible with the malware prevention part of my Webroot security package. I use it successfully with Windows and just renewed for another year. What do you suggest I do to protect myself? I am not a computer expert so if you could reply in plain language it would be appreciated. Also, we stream videos a lot and I noticed that DivX is also not compatible. What do I do about that? Thank you.

    I was having this issue for Firefox version 7 and had to spend one hour trying to find a solution. Here is the solution. Go to webroot.com, tab to support and than 2011 product support. Type in Firefox Toolbar it will than say are you unable to use firefox toolbar hit yes. It will say under 1. click hear to download patch. Save the file and after the download run it. After installed close firefox and you should have the webroot toolbar running again.
    ff7fix.exe is the file you need.
