  • Can I daisy chain 30" apple monitor to thunderbolt HD on macbook pro?

    I have a 30" apple monitor plugged into this adapter:  http://foliovision.com/2009/12/apple-dual-dvi-mini-displayport-adapter-mb571z   that in turn is plugged into the thunderbolt port as well as one USB port on my 2011 macbook pro i7.    
    I want to buy a Lacie Big5 thunderbolt RAID system, but I only have one thunderbolt port.  will i be able to daisy chain the monitor to the thunderbolt RAID? 

    I don't want to assume that it will work because it a little bit different on the Retina. All of the 2012 line of MacBook’s utilize the same thunderbolt controller which does support 2 displays and 4 10Gbit/s data (even the MacBook air 11" can support 2 external monitors and it's own display). But i think that the controller is hardwired for each port meaning each port only has 2 10Gbit/s data and 1 display. I haven't been able to confirm this because I don't have 2 thunderbolt displays and i was wondering if anyone has tried this. The reason why I ask is because I'm doing research on all of the new MacBook’s and their Thunderbolt controller.

  • Best way to sync contacts and calendars to non apple devices

    Hi. I need to be ale to share my calendars and contacts so I can access them on non apple devices.
    I've tried using google but find the syncing of contacts from osx address book to be really unreliable. Does anyone have any advice on the best way to do it?

    If you want a more open system use Google instead of iCloud, but iCloud is supported on OSX, IOS, Windows, and with the purchase of a few apps can be made to work (although not with all features) on Android systems.
    I have no idea if it will work on a Windows phone.

  • How can I transfer music from my iphone to other non apple devices

    How can I transfer music from my iphone to other non apple devices ?

    If this is music purchased through the iTunes Music Store, you would need to transfer the music to your computer using iTunes then transfer to the non-apple device according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  • I can't find my previous ??? concerning if it is possible to load songs from a "non-apple" device into iTunes

    I can't fnd the question I asked in here roughly an hour ago - concerning if I can load songs from a "non-apple" device. I have a SanDisk that I'd like to load my songs into iTunes - is this possible?

    A.C.,
    These links will give you several methods of recovering whatever songs remain on your iPod; some free, some third-party software, some more comprehensive for restoring Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, etc. Read them and their associated links before deciding on a strategy that works for you. There are many various third-party software programs that will offer a more robust process, or an easier GUI. Do a Google search for them if the links below leave you wanting…
    Don King Resurrected: Deleted files from hard drive (free user steps – music recovery only)
    MacMuse: Computer Crashed (free user steps – music recovery only)
    Copying music from iPod to computer (a primer on various methods and software)
    Copying Songs from Your iPod to a Mac or PC (resource for 3rd party software)
    iPodRip Software
    PodUtil Software
    Senuti (Mac OS X v10.3 or higher Recovery Utility)
    XPlay (Software For Music Recovery &/or Cross-Platform Functionality)
    XPlay Photo Browser (For recovering Photos)
    After recovering your song files, strongly consider developing a thorough backup strategy for just this type of situation (and many other potential disasters).
    You need at least two full sets of your music, not including what is on the iPod:
    -- One full set on the PC within iTunes (on internal HD or ExHD)
    -- One full set on an separate external backup medium (CD/DVD/ExHD/other)
    -- One (full or partial) set on the iPod
    Music files on just the iPod and only one other medium is not considered having any backup.
    If you cannot store your complete music files on the computer’s internal HD, then create and maintain at least two external sets (any multiple combinations of ExHDs, DVDs, CDs).
    Backup both the music files and the Library database file (iTunes Library.itl). What are the iTunes Library files?

  • HT203977 My new IPad Air 2 will not let me send text messages to non Apple devices.  What can I do to fix this problem?

    I have a brand new IPad Air 2.  My operating system is 8.2.  I am not able to send iMessages (texts) to non Apple devices.  When I attempt to, the name is in red not green.  What can I do to fix this?

    An iPad is not capable of natively sending an SMS or MMS messages.  Those services require a cellular voice channel connection, and a data tablet is only capable of a cellular data channel connection, not a voice channel connection.
    If you have an iPhone, under the settings on the iPhone you can enable forwarding with your iPad - where the iPhone actually sends and receives the SMS texts and shares them with your iPad.
    Otherwise, you will need to use an app and internet service like the telegram messaging app. Or you can send emails to the persons cell phone via their carriers texting gateway (e.g. [email protected] if they use AT&T in the USA).
    iMessages between iOS apps are separate from SMS texts as iMessages use Apples internet service and equipment. But the SMS protocol crams a short text message into the residual bandwidth of a cellular phones voice channel and cannot be sent over a cellular data connection.

  • How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

    How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

    What devices?
    The iPad can only pair with earphones, speakers and keyboards.
    It cannot directly pair with other phones or computers for file transfer or other operations.
    Most Bluetooth devices will have a user guide to connect them to other devices. follow that to start the process.
    From the iPad side, its just a matter of going inot Settings->BlueTooth turning it on, and searching for the device to pair. 

  • Is it legal to convert the music files, which I have purchased in recent months, to the mp3 format and burn them on to a CD so that they can be played on non-apple music devices that do not support the M4A format?

  • Is it legal to convert the music files, which I have purchased in recent months, to the mp3 format and burn them on to a CD so that they can be played in non-apple music devices that dont support the M4A format?

    Is it legal to convert the music files, which I have purchased in recent months, to the mp3 format and burn them on to a CD so that they can be played in non-apple music devices that dont support the M4A format?

    Yes, of course it is legal.
    To convert the format, follow one of these documents:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Save a copy of a song in a new file format
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Save a copy of a song in a new file format
    Also note that you have the option of buying your files in MP3 format in the first place, from Amazon MP3 or other online retailers.  MP3 files will work in iTunes as well as virtually every other player, program, and device.

  • The one non-Apple device I want to hold on to is my Blackberry.  Apologies - put it down to age.  is it possible for me to sync Calendars?  [what IS an Ical?]  Contacts and Notes etc syncs easily - only Calendar problem. i do hv a Google calendar/account.

    New to Mac (at 60+ years] and enjoying it.   But one non-Apple device want to hold on to is Blackberry 9900.   I can sync contacts, tasks - but NOT Calender.   I get message telling me to set up an iCal.    I have Google Calendar and happy to use that as 'hub' as it were, if that does job.  Syncing my Air and smartphone is important - help please?

    Another weird thing related to above question....when I first plugged in the itouch, it asked if I wanted to update the software and I did.  Then it went into restore.  Then the itouch itself went to a grey screen and asked me questions such as did I want to back up to icloud, use find my itouch, etc. plus it wanted my Apple sign in.  I did all that.  Once the itouch came on, I noticed that my daughter's music and photos were gone.  So that was all good.  But then at some point later when I was trying to figure out how to sync, I noticed another notice from Apple on my computer asking if I wanted to update.  I assumed that was for my computer not the itouch this time.  I did that.  Then the itouch was back to the grey tones and the same sign in questions.  Now my daughter's photos are back on it but not her music.  When I click Sync, nothing happens as far as loading the music.  Could this be that my music library is too big for the memory?  Wouldn't it tell me that rather than just not do it?  As you can see, I am very confused.

  • Hi All. I reluctantly upgraded to IOS 7 last night and now cannot access my home WIFI, all other non Apple devices are fine. I have reset, it will not allow me to 'forget this network', doesnt show the option. I have turned on and off

    Hi All, I reluctantly upgraded to IOS 7.1.1 on my IPAD last night , reluctant as every upgrade which promises fixes which dont impact me causes problems that do , which I fix via this community. Today I can no longer access my WIFI at home, my non Apple devices all work fine.I have tried all the online suggestions I can find for this, reset facgtory settings, it will not allow me to 'forget this network', I try to reconnect and it asks for my password which I know is correct and it says it cannot access my network. It can access an unsecured one I believe, but that is not ideal. Any fresh suggestions would be really welcome, please. Many thanks

    Thanks so much for your reply, yes I did and that has not worked either . A friend has suggested re installing upgrade, so may try that .

  • I have a Mac Pro tower with two internal Hard Discs, each one 2TB. I purchased a 3TB Time Capsule. But it does not allow me to back up because it says there is not enough back up space available. Between the two HDs there are 3.3TBs. Can I daisy chain TC?

    I have a Mac Pro tower (OSX version 10.6.3) with two internal Hard Drives, each one 2TB.
    I purchased a 3TB Time Capsule. But cannot back up because it tells me there is not enough space.
    I have more than 3Tbs to store to the new TC.
    Can I daisy chain two TCs to store the 4TBs?
    How can I back up only the internal HD that is already full, without backing up the other one?
    How can I do back up using Time Machine to back up the 3.5Tbs?
    Do I need to purchase another external HD (that is not TC) to be able to back up all of my photos?

    Can I daisy chain two TCs to store the 4TBs?
    No, you cannot link to produce a single large partition.
    But you can have two separate backup jobs.. and use each partition. That is hard on TM but you can easily get a different backup software for it.
    How can I back up only the internal HD that is already full, without backing up the other one?
    In TM you do a different setup and exclude the other drive.
    But it is better to use an alternative software IMHO.
    How can I do back up using Time Machine to back up the 3.5Tbs?
    You would need to use a network drive of more than 4TB .. it would also take forever. This is just wrong way to do it. Although you can buy a NAS that will work with Time Machine and load it with disks 16TB is possible.. if you can get a second mortgage.. the fragile nature of TM on 3rd party devices.. would leave me in cold sweat if anything went wrong.
    TM is excellent at keeping incremental backups of files that keep changing.. as such you should use TM to backup your OS disk and main user directory.. exclude all files and directories that never change. Back them up separately.
    Do I need to purchase another external HD (that is not TC) to be able to back up all of my photos?
    Yes, that is a much better idea. You want to store photos safely and you want to store them in multiple places. If you have multiple TB of photos, dedicate a couple of disks to the backup. ie have at least two copies.. not in backup format.. in straight copy format if possible.. so you can keep one of the disks offsite.
    I would be using your MacPro internal disk access, to place the disk onto sata bus and do the copy disk to disk direct. Or even buy esata card.. or sata to esata converter cable so you can use esata box. That will beat any other transfer speed except thunderbolt for which you would need third mortgage. (The MORT in mortgage is significant).
    The great jurist Sir Edward Coke, who lived from 1552 to 1634, has explained why the term mortgage comes from the Old French words mort, "dead," and gage, "pledge." It seemed to him that it had to do with the doubtfulness of whether or not the mortgagor will pay the debt.

  • How many firewire drives can I daisy chain on the mac mini

    How many firewire g-drives can I daisy chain on my mac mini

    How many firewire g-drives can I daisy chain on my mac mini
    From personal experience, if they are bus powered portable drives,
    the answer is none.  For what ever reason, they are draw a lot of
    power and are probably near the edge of the bus powering specs.
    Then again, these were the fastest of all the portable FW drives that
    I have (Iomega and Seagate being the others), which may have
    something to do with it.
    I had also noticed an issue with them even with USB.  Plugging one
    into the Mini or even a powered USB hub would be fine, but 2 would cause
    both to be inaccessible, unless I used a couple of USB "Y" cables
    that would distribute the power across other ports.
    If they are externally powered, you could string a bunch.

  • Airport extreme not connecting to non-apple devices

    Hi, I just installed a airporte extreme to serve as my home router (normal home network stuff).  My set-up is a cable modem to the extreme to an iMac.  The internet connection works, the wifi also works since I have a MacPro that works fine.  The issue is I can't get non-apple devices to read the wifi signal.  I have a sonos sound system and a Canon wifi printer that both worked fine with the old router (linksys), but with the extreme installed I can't get the signals to be recognized.  This seems like an airport set-up issue, any advice on what to look for and check?
    My iMac is new and on Mountain Lion; my MacPro is a year old and on 10.7.4

    I figured it out so perhaps I can help out the next person.  I am a novice to technical set-ups so this may second nature to some of you.  Basically, what I learned is that the wifi devices that I was trying to set-up all have a internal "memory" and still tries to communicate with previous routers that it was connected to.  Therefore, you have to get the devices to forget by powering them down for sufficient time, and take out batteries, so that it is more like a fresh set-up.  All is fine now.
