Any USB 2 cards work for PowerMac G4s that didn't have USB 2?

I noticed based on the specs, if USB 2 was available and so was 10.5, an iPad could be connected. This suggests that at least for 867 Mhz and faster G4s, an iPad is a possibility, if a USB 2 card is added, and only USB 1 was on the logicboard. Has anyone tried this and found ones that work? Either PCMCIA or PCI cards I'd be interested in, since I'm authoring a user tip on which cards would be needed for older Macs to connect the iPad.

I don't have the ability to test this but my belief is that all USB-1 ports WILL work with two caveats:
1) No power but this is not a big deal. Simply ensure that the iPad battery is at 100% before using the port. (I routinely use a keyboard USB-2 port that does not provide power.)
2) Speeds will be slower but the ports should work. To my knowledge, the USB-2 spec requires backward compatibility with USB-1.

  • I have an older Power Mac G5 Quad, and my video card just went out. I am trying to find a video card that will work for my Power Mac. I have duel screens but I can't seem to find the appropriate video card

    I have an older Power Mac G5 Quad, and my video card just went out. I am trying to find a video card that will work for my Power Mac. I have duel screens but I can't seem to find the appropriate video card. The serial number on my computer is: RM620603R6W. Apple won't help me because the computer is older than suggested. Please give me the exact video card that will work best for my computer.

    Hi Mike, make sure the card has Mac ROM, or is a PC card with Mac ROMs flashed to it...
    G5 PCIe options are listed here:

  • SInce the iOS 7.0.2 update I can't have any GarageBand's Ringtone working for the text's Ringtone... Please help me

    SInce the iOS 7.0.2 update I can't have any GarageBand's Ringtone working for the text's Ringtone...
    Please help me

    As the other person that replied, I have no issues with my 4S on iOS 7.0.2. What user troubleshooting have you tried? Restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Try double tapping on the home button, swipe upwards to force closed the camera app, then do a reset. That is holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. This will have not affect on your data. Try opening the camera app again and see if it works.
    One last question. You say that it shows a standard size picture of the picture where you started. Is this when you are looking at the picture you tried to take in the Camera Roll?

  • Flash Player only works for the account that downloaded it

    I downloaded flash player and did not specify any special preferences, however, it doesn't work for the 2 other accounts on the computer.  It only runs for the Administrator account from which i downloaded it. I'm running XP professional. Can someone tell me how to fix this?

    hi, i had already deleted cookies, temp internet files, etc;
    i only have the IE pop up blocker and blocking level set at Medium;
    it's the latest version of FP 10.0.45.2.
    I installed this version a couple of weeks ago and it worked ok for all accounts (the other 2 accounts are not admin) for a week. Then, it stopped working for all accounts, i reinstalled it (some trial and error involved), then when it finally reinstalled, only works for the one account. i just tried to reinstall from one of the other accounts and error mssg said  "failed to register"

    Subject: Flash Player only works for the account that downloaded it
    Hi ol, I would go to Tools, click on Internet Options and clear the Temp files. Delete Cookies, Delete Files, including the off line content. I would do this using all accounts. Also check the history files while you are there and delete those also unless you have done so recently.
    What version of Flash Player do you have Installed?
    Do you use any adblock or pop up blocker software?
    Thanks,

  • Are there any good DVD authoring programs for Mac now that Apple has discontinued DVD Studio and iDVD? I need to make DVDs that have interactive menus and such (Final Cut X and Compressor 4's DVD option is a little cheap). Any ideas?

    Are there any good DVD authoring programs for Mac now that Apple has discontinued DVD Studio and iDVD? I need to make DVDs that have interactive menus and such (Final Cut X and Compressor 4's DVD option is a little cheap and doesn't provide any kind of professional DVD authoring). Any ideas?

    This comes up a lot these days.
    Practically speaking, there are really four options for the Mac platform: Toast (<$100),  Adobe Premier Productiom ($1,600 to buy or $50/month to rent),  find a copy of Final Cut Studio from 3rd  party (+/- $1,000 new) or a boxed edition of iLife to get iDVD ($50 - $90 on Amazon new).
    The other question everyone has is how many OS versions before iDVD or FCS breaks? No one knows, but Apple has said they're no longer supporting these legacy apps. Of course, no one is mandated to upgrade to a new OS unless they buy a new computer. So if it works on a system, stay with it as long as it makes sense.
    Good luck.

    Choose Utilities from the Finder’s Go menu, open the Disk Utility, create two or three additional partitions(see below), and install or clone a different Mac OS X version to each.
    Unless you previously downloaded Mavericks 10.9, it’s no longer available.

  • How do I create an executable for a computer that does not have IVI drivers

    I'm creating an executable driver (based on the NI drivers) for a TDS 3054 intended for a computer that does not have the IVI engine. I would prefer to install as little software on this computer as possible. Is it possible for me to build the driver with the appropriate support DLL's without installing IVI on the user's computer? How do I do this?
    Thank you,
    Zach Oberman

    Zach,
    Since the tkds30xx driver you are using is IVI based, you will not be able to use it without the IVI Engine.
    If you must build an executable that does not require the IVI Engine, then you will need to use a traditional LabVIEW driver or convert a VXIpnp driver into LabVIEW. Neither of those drivers would require the IVI Engine.
    At this time the only TDS 3054 driver on NI's IDNet website is the IVI-based tkds30xx driver.
    You may be able to obtain a traditional LabVIEW driver from

    How do I download Adobe Flash Player for a computer that does not have internet?

    Hello Walter,
    that's it, usually you get and Adobe Flash Player Installer only.  For a distribution in a company, or an installation on a PC without internet access, Adobe has available an offline installer. This installer you don't need to uncompress it first. You can download the installation file from there (you must logged in with your Adobe ID): http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

    can i purchase wi-fi for itouch so that i dont have to look for a connection?

    Sorry, but I'm not clear on what it is you're asking. As long as you can get an Internet connection for your home, you can almost certainly use a WiFi router, of which there are many on the market. Some sort of broadband connection, though, is really necessary for the iPad to be able to use most functions. Consult your local Internet providers for options.
    If that doesn't answer your question, please explain in more detail what it is you are attempting to accomplish.
    Regards.
