Griffin adaptor for old apple pro clear bubble speakers?

what is the griffin adaptor for using old apple pro clear bubble speakers?

It was actually the Griffin iFire that adapted the Apple Pro speakers to newer Macs:

Long discontinued, their price on the used market is usually well in excess of the cost of a really nice, current set of external speakers.

  • Any 'Power On' button for the Apple Pro keyboard?

    Any 'Power On' button for the Apple Pro keyboard?
    It is possible to boot the Mac mini without pressing its rear power button? There is a handy 'Power On' button for the Apple Keyboard named 'i-Cue' (see below), but it no longer works with the new Macs (G5 and Mactel).
    A shame that Apple removed the power button of their keyboards years ago. So, what I am looking for is something similar to this, but working with the new Macs:
    USB Boot Dongle (i-Cue) for Mac
    Allows you to work with your G3 or G4 mini tower hidden out of the way
    You can have your Mac under the desk, yet it can be easily turned on from the keyboard position. Simply clips on to the Apple Pro Keyboard
    Includes 1.8m pass-through USB cable.

    Thanks.

    To do this, though, it would require that you just
    switch off the power to the Mac rather than going
    through it's shutdown procedure. Pulling the power on
    a running computer may cause all sorts of problems
    and should be avoided unless it's absolutely
    necessary to do it.
    I'd agree with that most certainly - though the old G4 would allow itself to be shut down and then have the remote power switch thrown. I've not had reason to test whether a mini would, or would simply immediately attempt a restart.
    Thanks for jumping in though to make that point - it's crucial not to overlook the dangers of improper shutdowns.

  • I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Connecting the old Apple Pro 2-piece stereo speakers

    about 4 yrs ago I bought a pair of Apple pro stereo speakers for my Power Mac G4 and Powerbook. They still work beautifully. This year I bought a new Macbook Pro. I've now discovered that the speakers don't attach to the MBP. I've tried my local Apple store and I've tried on-line searches, I've even bought connective pieces that I thought might work from the on-line picture. The connecting piece to the MBP output port for headphone/speakers is different in size and no one seems to be able to sell me a piece that makes the speakers connect. Has anyone else had the same problem and found a solution?

    Yes. No. There are lots of really good speakers that would sound as good and would likely cost less than adpaters and the like.
    People used to use Griffin iFire and Griffin Powerwave both which you cannot buy now but maybe find on eBay.
    There is a mixed digital and analog thing going on so lopping off wires and the like won't work, you need a D/A converter in the mix.

  • ICloud Restore stuck - keeps asking for old Apple ID

    Hello,
    I've just gotten a iPhone 4S that I want to restore from an iCloud backup (I've had a 3GS previously). Unfortunately I'm running into problems as the restore process just doesn't finish. Some settings are restored just fine (contacts, messages, browser history, ...) while others are causing problems. In particular the photos & apps are not being downloaded. Apps are recognized but just sit on my screen "waiting".
    I suspect that the cause for all this is that the last backup is from March 2012 (my 3GS died then) and in the meantime I've changed my Apple ID. During the restore it keeps asking for my old Apple ID, which is not longer active & I cannot log into.
    Now I'm stuck since the phone decides to set the iCloud account to the old one and this cannot be changed as it tells me that I cannot delete the iCloud account during a restore is in progress...
    Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated! Unforunately I don't have an iTunes backup and I really don't want to lose my data (especially the photos).
    Cheers,
    Florian

    The solution to fix this mess was to temporarily change my AppleID name back to the one that was active when the iCloud backup was being made.

  • Iphone app store asks for old apple id when i try to update apps

    I recently reset my apple id. However when I try to update apps in my iphone it asks for my old apple id info. When I enter this in it states that the info is incorrect and needs to be reset. However when I download new apps the app store asks for my recently updated apple id info. When I have tried to delete the apps that need to be updated and buy them again, I was charged for the app. As a result I cannot update any apps. How can I fix this?

    You changed it wrong. You should have done it this way:

  • HT2204 Recovering password for old Apple ID

    I copied my iTunes library to my new iMac from an external backup drived that was used with my now-scrapped G5 iMac. I didn't have any problem playing any songs.
    The problem I'm having on the new iMac is that some of my songs were purchased with an old Apple ID, and I no longer know the email address associated with it. The Mac is authorized, and plays all other songs just fine. I have searched and searched and can't find that there is a way to recover the password for my old ID if I don't know the address. Is this impossible to do? And if so, I assume the only thing I could do is repurchase the songs?

    Have you tried here...

  • Missing Some Fonts Called For in Apple Pro Training Serries FCS 2 Book

    I am currently working my way through Motion Graphics and Effects in Final Cut Studio 2 by Mark Spencer and Jem Schofield in the Apple Pro Training Series. Twice I have encountered cases where I am unable to find the font called for in the book. One case was Helvetica neue (I substituted Helvetica) and the second instance in which the Herculanum font is called for. I am surprised that books in this series would use fonts that do not seem to be on my computer. I am using OS 10.4.10 with all updates and similarly for FCS 2. I feel I may be missing something here, i.e. perhaps the fonts really are somewhere on my system and are just not accessible to FCS 2. Is that possible? Suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.
    Tom

    Hanumang and All,
    Thank you for your help. Let me bring this to closure by explaining what I found on investigating this issue and what I did to resolve it and obtain the fonts.
    On the basis of your confirmation that these fonts should have been on my iMac, I called Apple Support. I spent the usual hour on line with them and went through two support people only to learn that the only way to get these fonts back into my OS X Library/Fonts folder (without having a second Mac computer) was to reinstall the operating system. It is remarkable to me that one cannot simply get the fonts off the Apple Installation disk, but it cannot be done since they are installed as part of the OS X installation and are not in a separate directory or folder on the installation disk.
    I set out to do an Archive and Install with Preserve User Settings carefully checked. About one third of the way through the Archive and Install process the process hung and failed to move forward for more than an hour. I finally ended the installation process and attempted to run it again which it would not allow me to do as the Archive and Install process was now grayed out. I had no choice but to run an Erase and Install process to get a clean version of OS X on my system.
    Once I had the clean version of OS X on the system, I used Font Book to check for Helvetica neue and Herculanum fonts and they were now there. I then copied all of the fonts in Library/Fonts from this vrigin install of OS X to an external drive. I back up my iMac every night automatically using Retrospect so I was now able to do a full restore of my Mac HD using Retrospect. Of course, once I had done that the fonts were missing again, but I just copied all the fonts from the external HD copy into the Library Fonts folder on my Mac HD, and all was well -- some 7 hours after starting this process.
    You know, as someone who has recently bought their first Mac computer in 24 years, I would have to say that I am very disappointed in certain aspects of OS X. It takes an excessively long time to reinstall OS X compared to Windows XP with which I am very familiar. The Archive and Install feature of OS X has not worked for me on the two occasions where I have tried to use it and I truly miss the REstore feature of Windows XP.
    I love Apple Professional level software like FCS 2 and Aperture, but I am not a fan of OS X. My hope is that Leopard with Time Machine and other new features will address some of the problems with OS X.

  • TS5223 Iphone asks for old apple id when trying to erase iphone

    Hi i need to erase my old phone as i have a new one. When i go to erase it, it asks for an old apple id which i havent used in years! I have been using a different id for years.
    I do not know the password to this account any more and when i click 'forgot my
    Password' it must send the reset option to an old email address which i do not have anymore. It does not let me choose an email address to send it to and im not recieving anything. Also the security question which asks me my date of birth doesnt work for me either.
    Why!
    Why cant it just be simple to erase my old phone. I have never even used this old account with this iphone.
    It may have done this since i restored my
    Iphone ready for the new phone?
    Please help!

    Had apple support help me with this:
    On your computer, go to appleid.apple.com, and sign in using your current apple ID.
    Once signed in, change the primary email address to the one your phone is asking you for (ie. your old apple ID), enter the password you want to use for iCloud. 
    Go to your iPhone --> Settings --> iCloud.  Now you can enter the password for the old apple ID.  Delete the account.
    Go back to your laptop, change the primary email address back to the current one. Now you'll be able to enter your current apple ID and password on your device -- should be good as new!

  • Cannot update apps asks for old Apple ID

    I recently had to use a different Apple ID ( I have 3) because one has an old email address I cannot access any longer. I updated on my desktop, IPad and IPhone but I see I have a lot of app updates I need to install but when I select the update for each app I get " Need to log in to the Apple Store" But the Apple ID that comes up is my OLD one. If I look on both my IPad and IPhone the Apple ID's are updated ( I did manually on both devices but in this case it always asks for my OLD PASSWORD to my OLD Apple ID.
    How OD I fix this issue?

    I have the same problem. Apple uses an email which I never used with any apple product.
    It won't change the apple ID on my iPhone although everything just works fine on my mac...
    In SETTINGS -> Itunes & App Store is the right Apple ID but as soon as I want to update my apps it says to sign in to iTunes Store with the wrong apple ID...

  • Continuing asked about password for old Apple id on iphone5

    I have changed Apple id, but I still been asked about password for the old one on my iPhone 5. How do i solve this probleme?

    Are you saying you don't know the password for your old Apple ID?
    To update any apps, on your phone, obtained with your old ID, you will have to: Settings>Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...then sign back in with your old ID...update the apps, then sign out again & sign back in with your new ID. Is this what you're doing?
    There are only two ways to fix this: 1. Delete any content obtained with your old ID, then re-purchase with your new ID, or 2:
    Go here:
    https://expresslane.apple.com/Issues.action
    Ask for assistance, and ask that the content obtained with your old ID be transfered to your new ID. If iTunes support agrees to do this, they will add the content to your download queue.

  • IPhone 5 Update for Pandora App asks for 'Old Apple ID' info...

    Recently bought the iPhone5 and am very satisfied with it.  I do have one problem right now.  The app store is showing I can Update my Pandora (Music) App, yet when attempting this the Apple ID (that it asks for my Password for) is my Old Apple ID, not my Most Recent ID.  And my Current Password is not valid with this 'old ID'.  All other Apps are doing fine when I go to Update them.
    i.e.
    App gives me option to input password:
    Apple ID > [email protected]
    Enter Password > Here
    And my actual Apple ID is a different email address, not this old email address.
    Other apps are doing fine with Updates, yet I think Pandora's App was the only App that I once had on an iPhone3 several years ago.  I think the App (this one only) is thinking I have the old email ID (Apple ID) and wants the old password.  Not sure what to do?  Thank you~  SanibelMan in Indiana / 5-24-2013

    Currently having the same problem but with Instagram. It's been working fine up until now with current apple ID, so roaminggnome's explanation doesn't fit. I'm going to try Apple Support to see if I can get it fixed.

  • I used migration assistant for old MacBook Pro to New MacBook Pro

    Today, after being on the phone to applecare I uses migration assistant to copy files, applications etc from my old macbook pro to my new one using firewire, but only somethings copied for example, none of my photos, or music came over and also a lot of the software is asking for verification and codes etc. When the applecare person asked me to restart the old macbook pro holding down the "t" key, when it restarts all it shows is a firewire icon bouncing around on the screen like a screen saver, giving me no access to the old mac and therefore having to choose the transfer "from a time machine back up or other disk" option instead of the "from another mac" option, could that be the problem? Has anyone else experiamced this?

    I did choose "other disk" cause it wouldn't let me choose the "from another mac" option. I'm thinking this is why not all of my stuff transfered? Also is it strange that the old mac just had the firwire icon bouncing around on the screen the whole time?
    Thanks
