Does iPhone work with USB 1.1 on iMac 17 inches 1 GHz ?

My GF just got her iPhone and I tried to use it with my iMac but it wouldn't show up in my iTunes. I wonder if this was because there are only USB 1.1 on my Mac (5 of them). Please post a response if you happen to know about this and I will really appreciate it, thanks a lot. Nick

The iPhone specs are as follows
Mac system requirements
Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.4.10 or later
iTunes 7.5 or later
Although it may work on some systems results can not be predicted if you go below those specs, it is a known issue that the iPhone does not like any USB below 2.0,
hope this helps

Does iPhone work with the Apple Hi-Fi speakers

Thinking of buy the Apple Hi-Fi speakers. Does it work with the iPhone?

Neil is correct, it does work, a previous version of the firmware had some problems and could trigger the warning message you refer to, suggesting airplane mode. In fact, airplane mode is a good idea because the GSM interference will be really loud on the HiFi.
The HiFi has been discontinued, have you been able to find one?

Windows 2000 - does iPhone work with it?

iTunes could not find a device driver. Is there a way to get iPhone working with Windows 2000?

SundayDuffer it should work fine to recharge the iphone battery, just don't expect to get any synching with the phone, as for RTFM? Or whatever that is, I am not a techie, so...enlighten us (me) please?

Will iPhone work with USB 1 ?

My brother has an iMac 700Mhz G4 flat panel.
OS is up to date as is iTunes etc. Other than slower data transfer, will the iPhone function with iTunes?

D you have the Aluminum PB? that has USB 2 but I think you need to make sure the OS is 10.4.10 and latest version of iTunes.
However if your PB is an early one with USB 1 then I think (from what I've researched) that it's a slim chance it will work.

Does iPhone work with Slingbox?

I know Slingbox works with the Treo -- anyone know if the iPhone supports it?

There is a very tricky slingbox thing being planned -- but is not sure if it will eventually work. It will involve linking to an Apple TV and then to your iPhone. It is not yet functional.
Slingbox won't work directly on your iPhone as it does not run on EDGE, even if they were to create a program for it.
Of course, the other work around would be for Slingbox to couple with Apple to figure out a way for you to use your internet to stream your Slingbox -- but for the most part, Safari on the iPhone doesn't WORK with streaming media.
I do miss Slingbox, but it's one more thing I can eBay...

Does iPhone work with Charter Cable? POP problems

I am attempting to set up a friend's iPhone to use Charter.net and I am experiencing the same problem. The local Apple store rep told her that iPhone would not work with Charter. However, when she shuts down her home computer or Outlook, she gets her Charter email okay. Obviously, the solution isn't shutting down Outlook or leaving her computer turned off so she can get/send email via her iPhone. But how do I get around this POP lock? Once we reset her iPhone, emails came into her desktop? Surely there are other Charter Cable customers that are successfully using their iPhone for Mail, etc. How did you do it?
Thanks,
Barry Brown

"Obviously, the solution isn't shutting down Outlook or leaving her computer turned off so she can get/send email via her iPhone."
Actually that is the best solution for POP lock. If she is away from the computer, close the email client so that it is not constantly checking email.
There is no way to get around POP lock. If both devices (computer and iPhone) happen to check mail at the same time, the server will lock one or both of them out. You can try to lessen the chance of them checking at the same time by setting the interval to check mail to be a little longer or set one to check manually.
This article explains what is happening.

Does iPhone work with Jabra BT160?

I just keep getting the searcing message so I was wondering if maybe they don't work together.

I have tried iPhone 3G with several Jabra headsets and it seems it works fine, except from the issues I'm having as [described in this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1804116&tstart=15]. Mind you, that I am facing these issues with numerous headsets from different vendors, and I also have tried 3 iPhones. So, I have concluded that it's an iPhone-related issue and that [Apple should really fix such issues|http://pleasefixtheiphone.com/problems/view/6330>, software or not.

Does iPhone work with modified sine wave inverter?

Well, i have a modified sine wave inverter and i want to know of i can use this inverter to charge my iPhone. Thanks!

You mean to plug the wall charger into? It should be OK, but if you are using a 12 volt auto source you are much better off getting a 12V USB charger. Wastes less gas.

Does it work with USB?

I've been importing movies from my DV/tape camcorder to my MacBook over firewire.
Now I want to buy a MacBook Air, which only has USB.
So I tested iMovie & USB on MacBook, and iMovie doesn't see the camcorder.
QUESTION: Is it possible to import movies to iMovie via USB? (Maybe I did something wrong)

Tape cameras are firewire only. MacBook Air is not a good fit if you are going to be editing videos.
You can import from USB camcorders such as the SDHC or Hard Drive-based AVCHD camcorders. But even then, I would not recommend the MBA, because video takes up a lot of hard drive space, and the MBA does not have much.

Does Logic Work With USB Keyboard?

if so what ones would you recomend?
also a portable mic, doesnt have to be great quality that can go in the mini jack of a mac book. just for ideas.
thanks

Hi Syn,
The answer is yes.
If your just looking for a basic keyboard to just record onto logic, take a look at the keystation range from M-Audio. Ive had one for a while now and never had a problem. I don't need much else for what im doing.
As for something a bit more advanced i wouldn't know enough to reccommend something. But the Keystation Pro 88 or Axiom range look ok.
On the mic side of things i have a JTC CX-07S Mic.
Nice and cheap and very portable. You will have to get a 1/4 " adaptor for it but it will do the trick.
Hope this gives you a few ideas or at least points you in the right direction.
Cheers

IPhone (3,3G,4) does not work with Apple Universal Dock.

I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch that has been upgraded to iOS 4. My iPod Touch will no longer sync via the Apple Universal Dock. Also, my new iPhone 4 also will not sync via the Apple Universal Dock.

Trust a geek not to give up. I decided to get to the bottom of the "iOS device does not work with the Apple Universal Dock" problem. I noticed that the iPhone 4 and iPad came with slightly different USB-Dock adapter cables. I wondered if that might be the issue. My Apple Universal Dock was connected to my Mac via the original dock adapter cables which are slightly larger. I connected the newer cables between the Mac and the Apple Universal Dock and .... voila! Both the iPod Touch with iOS 4 and the iPhone can now connect via the Apple Universal Dock. Apple changed something in the way the adapter cables function.
Of course I still have the problem with the car head unit dock adapter ... Sigh. I'll have to call Best Buy ( uughh! ) and find out if they'll do the update for me. The were the vendor authorized installer.

AirPlay does not work with iPhone 4 s or iPad.Remote doesn´t work as well

AirPlay does not work with iPhone 4 s or iPad.Remote doesn´t work as well.
WLAN is working, I can use Youtube on my AppleTV, but I can´t connect to my computer or use airplay on my iPhone or iPad.

Something is not configured correctly that is creating issues with your AppleTV. You can disconnect it from the TV and power, and then plug it into your computer with a micro-USB cable. After launching iTunes on your computer, you will be able to restore it to default settings and upgrade the software.

Will iphone work with OS 10.3.9 and a standard USB

I have an old Titanium G4 power book using OS 10.3.9. and standard USB port, has anyone been able to connect thier iphone with a similar system?
I saw on apple's site that you need OS 10.4.10 and a usb2, but I see some users have older computers with older OS. Will the iphone work with an older system?
I want an iphone with out buying a new computer.
Thanks

Hey 111wonderer,
The iPhone does require Mac OS 10.4.10
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305703
USB2 is required but the USB hardware is forward compatible from USB 1 to 2. The syncing will be much slower with USB 1 though.

External USB HD does not work with HAL:

External USB HD does not work with HAL:
From the last 10 days the HAL auto-mount with ntfs-3g file system of my external hard drive does not woks.
But the manual mount procedure with the command mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb* /mnt/XYZ works.

I have done the following:
Downloaded the patched hal version.
used makepkg in /abs/local/trunk/ to create a pkg for pacman
used sudo pacman -U pkgname to install it.
used sudo nano /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi to create the fdi file with the following content:
saved the file and removed my ntfs entryes from fstab and rebooted. and still there is no automount off ntfs partitions.
have i done something wrong?
br fjodork
WARNING: what follows is a guide of what did work for me, I'm still in an early stage of learning linux, so please correct me if anything of what follows is wrong/dangerous/stupid. As I said, this worked for me, it's not pretty, since I was learning each step on the fly and I'm sure there are better ways to do this.
So fjodork, you seem to have done the the necessary steps, though i couldn't get it to work until i first removed hal without dependencies
pacman -Rd hal
it will give you some warning about the dependencies, ignore it since we are reinstalling hal in a few steps.
First i tried to follow Raymano's link, obviously it showed me nothing in the browser so I thought it might be a broken link.
So I downloaded the source tarball from here http://hal.freedesktop.org/releases/hal-0.5.10.tar.gz
unpacked it changed the /tools/hal-storage-mount.c as per Milfadoodle's instructions.
at first I tried to compile directly from source, the process would finish without a glitch though after reboot nothing changed, as if hal weren't
installed, i guess there were issues with paths. anyway read on
Then repacked the source in tarball, copied it to /var/abs/extra/system/hal and modified the PKGBUILD as follows
makedepends=('pkgconfig' 'gperf')
options=('!libtool')
install=hal.install
source=(${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz #removed url so makepkg looks in the current directory for the tarball
hal
hal-policy.patch
cryptsetup_location.patch
hal-0.5.9-hide-diagnostic.patch
ntfs3g-valid-options.patch)
md5sums=('6641c30a27c00485c6accac5110ff911' # replace with md5sum of your package's sourceball (run md5sum filename)
'882f67668cb14a0a9e4a27ef22278027'
'5ba8b610aa9763a5f42b9f7cbd7a86ad'
then makepkg (i had to add --asroot, don't ask why
and finally pacman -U hal-0.5.10-1-i686.pkg
another reboot and everything worked without a glitch!:D (yeah i know i still haven't got rid of the reboot mentality )
I have also put the policy files as per the wiki instructions.
PS: I know this is a dirty way to getting things done but as i said, I'm just starting
If anyone could comment/correct/explain this post I'd be more than happy, the automount issue was bothering me for about a month now (you'll say why do I need ntfs in the first place? well, I only recently switched for Linux as my primary OS, these are some relics of the M$ era

USB Camera does not work with iChat

Hello,
I'm having a terrible time getting my ToUcam Pro II to work with iChat. I downloaded the iUSBcam program. That didn't work. I downloaded the program Macam, and copied the proper file into the Quicktime Library (as suggested) and that didn't work. I downloaded IOXwebcam, and got an error stating that it wouldn't run due to the fact that it didn't have the proper security settings. Sigh.
So... what am I to do?
I'd like to buy a webcam that does, actually, work with my 8 month old Mac Pro 4 core mac desktop, but the iSight camera is ridiculously expensive. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Brad

An X-box 360 cam will do it although not in that list.
Anything that is USB 2.0 and marked UVC compliant or Vista Certified.
Be Aware some Mac Keyboards do not have USB 2.0 ports.
