HT3458 Why don't they allow the apple ear pods to work with this shuffle?

I have a third gen iPod shuffle that I love, but the old apple earphones kill my ears. They should update either the iPod or the ear pods to work together.

Have you ever found a product that always works and never fails for anyone? I sure haven't. Things always break for various reasons and usually it isn't the manufacturer's fault. I can see why you are upset, I'm not faulting you for that, but the bulk of ipods out there work fine, otherwise apple would not still be making them nor would people buy them.

My UI preferences are set to identical settings in Illustrator and InDesign, why don't they look the same?

My UI preferences are set to identical settings in Illustrator and InDesign ("scale to lower supported scale factor") and AI looks perfect, ID is too big. Why don't they look the same if the settings are the same? Driving me CRAZY. I have my windows scaling factor at 124% and it needs to stay enlarged, otherwise nothing else on my system will be readable. The inconsistency of the workspaces is so annoying.

Hello billwoodard11,
Thanks for the question. If your computer is not compatible with HD 1080p content, you should receive a prompt stating so - but should still be able to download the content for use on other devices. For more information, check out this resource:
Purchasing and viewing HD videos in iTunes - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201850
How to purchase, download, or view HD 1080p content
iTunes 10.6 by default is set to purchase, download, and playback HD content in 720p. You must change your local preference setting if you prefer to download, purchase, and playback HD content in 1080p. Depending on your computer's hardware configurations, you may be unable to purchase, rent, or playback content in 1080p. iTunes may display the following dialog:
On Mac or PC
Download the latest version of iTunes. You can download iTunes for free.
From the iTunes menu, choose iTunes > Preferences > Store (for PC, choose Edit > Preferences > Store).
Next to "When downloading High Definition videos, prefer:" set your preference to 1080p1.
Click OK. Now, when you purchase or download HD content, your computer will always download in 1080p, when available.
Depending on your computer's hardware limitations, you may be unable to purchase, rent, or view HD content from the iTunes Store. If you are trying to view HD video on an external display, the display must have a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI) and support HDCP.

Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

We relied upon the "days available for download" to get people to take
action more quickly. The "virus scanning" progress bar was simply another
way of knowing this activity was actually taking place - unless this is
written somewhere in the Adobe Send User Guide.....wherever that is.

Why won't the Apple Composite AV Cable work with ipad2?

I got the Apple Composite AV Cable for our iPad2 but it does not seem to work. The cable does not work with either our iPad2 or the iPod Touch 2G. Ironically, the cord *does* work with our ancient iPod 80GB Classic.
The iPad does not show settings for PAL or NTSC or any other settings I could possibly change to try and get the video out to work. What am I missing?
IPod Touch is set for NTSC and Widescreen has been tried both off and on with no video shown on the TV.
The videos do still show on the iPod/iPad screens while playing.

Apparently the answer is no? I guess for me this is the #1 reason to not buy an iPhone 5. I switched to the iPhone specifically for the component (RCA) cable with charging capabilities for my car audio / nav needs. Android did not have a good solution and Apple did. I am sure there are a hand full of folks who bought the Pioneer App radio who are stuck as well. Apple needs to make an airplay to component adapter or a cable for the iPhone 5. Newsflash I am not switching my head unit out for a new phone. Don’t get me wrong I love air play and own an apple TV but hotel rooms, cars, boats and points of usage not going to have air play in all instances. Even if a cable comes out the “digital” port seems telling that component is going away. Time will tell.

Why the Apple products does not work with Adobe flash player?

Could be better if the Apple products work with Adobe Flash Player, I know that Steve does not like to work with them, but I think will be necessary soon.

From Adobe's own site:
*** NOTE: FLASH PLAYER IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED FOR NEW DEVICE CONFIGURATIONS. FLASH PLAYER WILL NOT BE SUPPORTED ON ANY ANDROID VERSION BEYOND ANDROID 4.0.x ***
While Flash Player remains on Google Play for installation on Android devices that are certified by the manufacturer, installing Flash Player on an uncertified device may result in unexpected behavior and can potentially destabilize your device. A list of certified devices can be found at http://www.adobe.com/go/certifieddevices. Flash Player WILL NOT be supported on any device shipped with or upgraded to an Android version beyond Android 4.0.x
Further comments on what is the case on Android devices is irrelevant. Adobe has dropped further development of Flash for mobile devices and Apple has made no indications that they have any plans to do so themselves, so it is highly unlikely that there will ever be a native Flash player for any iOS device.
'nuff said on the matter. Regards.

Does the Apple Composite AV Cable work with Sky Sports TV App?

I have 'The new iPad' and was wondering if I bought the Apple cable that links your iPad to your television if it would be able to stream content from the Sky Sports TV app? The content is similar to that of ITV Player BBC iPlayer apps ect

Does the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter work with a MacBook Air that's been updated to Lion?

I saw a comment at the online Apple store that the USB Ethernet Adapter didn't work with Lion. Anyone else have experience with the adapter?

Just point the tech rep to the apple website that lists the Ethernet to USB system requirements as:
"Overview
The Apple USB Ethernet Adapter is a simple, one-piece external adapter that plugs into the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air to provide 10/100BASE-T performance. Simply plug your Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 connector — no external power is required. It’s small, light, easy to install, and even easier to use.
Technical Details
     USB 2.0 with bus power
     10/100BASE-T (RJ-45 connector)
What's in the Box
     Apple USB Ethernet Adapter with built-in 4.6-inch USB cable
User's Guide
System Requirements

Note that there is no mention of a specific OS requirement.......Cut and pasted from apple.com.

I have a 2010 Macbook pro with the option to 'pinch' on the track pad to zoom on the screen, and its not working with this new beta version of firefox i downloaded.. but it's working on the rest of my laptop. Is there some way to turn it on?

When I try to pinch in and out on the trackpad it's not working, but then it will work on my desktop when I minimize firefox.

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

Will the IBM Thinkpad T-40 work with this power adapter: 83H6339

A friend of mine had an old AC Adapter laying around his garage from a real old IBM Thinkpad and gave it to me. The part number on the AC Adapter is 83H6339. My wife purchased an IBM Thinkpad T-40 that only had the docking station with power but doesn't hook directly up to the laptop. I wanted to find out if this old AC Adapter would be compatible with the T-40 (2373-72U). I don't want to hook it up and chance messing anything up, but I can't find any specs on what types of laptops this adapter is supposed to work with.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hankinsd, welcome to the forum,
I wouldn't use it, it is a 56W AC Adapter and too"weak". The T4 series requires a 72W AC Adapter.
Hope this helps

If LTE is backwards compatible with GSM, why don't they say the phones are global?

When is Verizon going to come up with a 4g LTE CDMA GSM phone, just to leave no needs unfilled? Seems like an obvious gap, except that searching these boards and elsewhere seems to lead to the paradox of yes backwards compatible, but not actually global.
Argghhhh. Any helps or ideas?

Some modern chipsets include software-defined radios that can change
their frequency and even their technology. They change mode depending
on the firmware loaded at startup. It would be really helpful if we had
a list of such chipsets and the phones that use them. At least we'd
know which ones stood some chance of being global-compatible in the
future, if and when Verizon decides to enable the capability. As it is,
they stand a very good chance of losing an increasing number of their
most lucrative customers.

Why doesn't the Apple support communities homepage work with an iPad?

You can't scroll. Why would apple create a site that doesn't work as intended using one of their own products?

That was fast and it works! I never knew you could do this. Learn something every day! Thanks ! Does this always work for scrolling in situations like this or does the page need to encoded in some way?

Why don't I see the log when I repair permissions with Disk Utility

I'm having issues with Safari hanging or bogging down to a snail's pace lately. I have tried several times to repair permissions with Disk Utility. It runs for several minutes, but shows nothing in the log even though the box is checked to show details. I've never seen this before. I don't know if Disk Utility is doing it's job or not....
Any thoughts?

If the progress bar goes to the end, then you don't have any permissions needing repair. The fact that Safari is slowing down has nothing really to do with permissions.

Will the Apple 30 Inch display work with my MacBook pro? Confused!!

Hi all,
thinking of getting a used Apple 30 inch display to go with my MBP, but not sure if it will work at the correct resolution. Ive read you need a Duel Link DVI cable, but I have Thunderbolt not mini-display port. My MBP is early 2011 (think), so I am really confused. The 27 Incher with thunderbolt would be good too, but they are too expensive for me.
Graphics card is AMD Radeon HD 6490M, 16mb RAM. 10.6.8.
I would really appriciate any advice !
Thank you all in advance,
Bish.

I am replying to my own post here, but i have made excellent progress and wanted to let any other viewers in the same boat, know the solution.
Basically, the Duel Link DVI cable from Apple (£70 / $99) is the bad boy that works. My confusion was Thunderbolt, but apparently Thunderbolt IS ALSO a DVI port ! So, buy the 30 incher on Ebay or off a mate, and BANZAI ! done. Glorious res of about 2560x1600pixels is awesome!
The only downside here is that it might be too big LOL !!!!
Good luck all
Bish
