Can I use my Apple Pro Speakers from my G4 on my Mac Pro?

Hi. I would like to use my Apple Pro Speakers (with iSub) from my old G4 on my new Mac Pro, but the jack is too large for the plug. I spoke to someone at Apple who said that she thought there was an adapter available in the Apple Store, but I have not been able to find it. Does anyone know if it's possible to connect these old speakers to my new machine, and where I might be able to locate this adapter? I'm really trying to avoid having to shell out money for new speakers when I was quite happy with the ones I have. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Mac Pro. 2 x 2.66 GHZ   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

What size is the plug, on the speakers? Is it smaller than the 3.5mm jack on the Mac Pro? If so, you could try getting a 2.5-3.5mm adapter from an electronics supplier. Should be really cheap. Alternatively, cut the plug off, and solder on a new 3.5mm plug.
Good luck!

  • Can i use Airplay with other applications different to iTunes on my Mac Pro?

    Hi,
    I bought a Mac Pro 13' Retina Display two weeks ago and today i bought a Bose SoundTouch 20 and i connected both to my home network by ethernet cord. when i try to use applications like iTunes to send the sound of a song from mac to bose it work perfect, but when i try to do the same with spottily (i downloaded the app for my mac) simply doesn't work and don't know why. Another issue is that either can't send the sound of the movies and videos from mac to bose (i already try this using this configuration: send by airplay the movie to apple tv and from apple tv send the sound to bose, all work perfect because all was connected with ethernet cord).
    So the question is, Anyone know why the Airplay function only work with iTunes and with other applications simply doesn't?

    AirPlay only works with iTunes for Mac OS, iOS devices, and Apple TV.
    Not third party (non Apple) apps such as Spotify
    If the Bose Sound Touch supports Bluetooth, you may be able to stream music to the Mac or Apple TV. That's for sound, not video.

  • Can I use a bluetooth keyboard on a non-bluetooth enabled (Old)Mac Pro?

    Sorry, this seems like something I could easily find an answer to, but I haven't found the answer on the forums or in google searches.
    My quad core Mac Pro is not Bluetooth enabled.  I'm assuming I can just use a USB Bluetooth dongle to talk to the keyboard.  I thought I would double check before I start spending money.  I do have a Belkin Bluetooth dongle already, but I've seen some talk about some talk about some other options from the Mac Store.  I'm just hoping to hear what has worked for others.
    Thanks!

  • Can I use my G5 Dual 2.7Ghz drives in a new Mac Pro?

    I currently have 2 drives in G5 and would like to move them over to a new Mac Pro Tower, they being a WD 740GD SATA high speed drive as well as my boot up 700G SATA drive. Are they compatible and has anyone had issues? Cheers.

    Actually, the drives might need to be reformatted because your G5 uses PowerPC processors, which need to be formatted using the Apple Partition Map.
    Your Mac Pro is an Intel machine, so the drives will need to be formatted using the GUID partition; disk utility can take care of this for you.

  • How can I use airplay with multiple speakers from my iPod?

    I recently purchased a bluetooth wireless speaker in hopes that, while the ipod is docked on a speaker system, I can listen to my music from both set of speakers.  Is there anyway to use multiple speakers with my ipod through the airplay system or an app that I can download to enhance my music listening experience?

    You want system, data, backup etc. Make good use of the four internal drive bays.
    You will have to use Disk Utility to ERASE or click on drive and use PARTITION to make it Mac writeable.

    With "license" you mean serial number?  If that serial number was for a different Acrobat version (e.g. 9), you cannot use it for the current version XI.
    You can however use it to purchase an upgrade from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html

    How can I use my apple ID to buy from different app stores (different countries)?

    You can only use a country's store if you are in that country and have a billing address in that country on your account - are you in the country that you want to buy content from ? If you are then you can update the billing address on your account to be your address there (if using a credit card then that will need to have been issued by a bank in that country) via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes.
