  • How do I know whether the USB port in my macbook air is 2.0 or 3.0?

    How do I know whether the USB port in my macbook air is 2.0 or 3.0? I really want to use a usb flash drive that has faster read/write speed but I don't kow if it would be supported by my macbook air - I purchased the macbook air from the apple store on autumn 2011, 1.7Ghz Intel Core i5

  • Connecting wirelessly using the USB Port

    I recently saw a small device at Best Buy that allows my computer to connect remotely to the internet (via cable modem) using the USB port that costs only $60. Do you know of this and can you comment?

    Are you trying to do this because your Ethernet port is broken? Is it a wireless device? Can you link to a product description?

  • I am unable to download pictures from my Sony Cybershot to my iMac, I have tried using the USB port as well as simply inserting the memory stick into the slot.  I have been able to do this in the past as recently as a few weeks ago.... Help please..

    Thanks Eric for responding.
    I checked and it does not appear in the Applications folder.
    I tried yesterday on an ethernet connection with a download speed of 2 Mbps but, unfortunately the connection died(It happened from the ISP end, which is out of my control) in between after which there was no trace of the download that happened for so long(till the internet connection death). 
    One more serious query which I am unable to understand. If the internet connection, dies in the midst of the download is in progress why is it so that the state does not persist and one has to restart the entire process again. Is there no solution for this?
    I tried so many times and its the same case after some amount of download it vanishes. So many unsuccessful attempts. I am ****** off now. Is it not possible to see Mavericks? Why does different machines of Apple behave differently? Somewhere it goes smoothly and somewhere like my mine. Why did not Apple release a non apple store version? Is this not a bad sign of letting the users struggle when something is being offered for free?
    The reason I asked as whether we can download the .app of Mavericks is that, there are so many applications that I have downloaded web and have installed. All that works fine. Can't we do the same here? You download a copy of Mavericks installer application and upload it for me in Google drive or like online storage places which can be downloaded and used by me? Help me understand.
    Thanks again.

  • Is it safe to use the USB port in my car to charge my iPhone 5s or do I need to buy a car charger?

    Is it safe to use the USB port in my car to charge my iPhone 5s or do I need to buy a car charger?

    Check car manual to see if it supports charging ,some do not
    or use a USB 12 volt plug in for the "cigarrette lighter" socket and plug into that ,probably a better solution

    Hey Stella,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities, and thanks for the question! I'd read through the following article before selling your Mac - it'll include instructions on how to reformat your hard drive:

  • Is it safe to charge an iPhone overnight using a USB port on a surge protector?

    I just bought a new surge protector that has two USB ports built in. I know it is safe to charge an iPhone using the USB ports on a computer, and it is safe to charge an iPhone using the supplied power adapter. However, I have heard that the supplied power adapter (the brick) that comes with the phone automatically stops charging the iPhone when it reaches 100%. I normally leave my iPhone charging overnight. So my question is, would it be safe to charge my iPhone overnight via the built in USB port on my new surge protector? Or should i continue using the power adapter that it came with?
    This is the surge protector i purchased.

    Yes, it's safe. The phone is actually what stops the charging.

    QuestionWhy can I no longer use my exterior speakers connected to the USB port on my MacBook pro ?

    Have you checked the Sound Preferences under the System Preferences and set it to USB speaker for the sound output? Sometimes it can change on its own or after and update of an App or the OS?

  • Can i charge an omni 10 threw the usb port

    can an omni 10 be charged by using the usb port?
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    The recommendation is to use the charger which comes with the unit. You still can use USB port to charge BUT it may take ages to get a full charge and this may effect your computer.
    Regards.

  • USB cable to charge my iPhone 4S in the USB port in my car?

    Can I use the USB cable (that is part of my charger) to charge my iPhone 4S in the USB port in my car?

    Check the car documentation  ,some will support charging but many specifically will not supply a charging current
    if not use a  USB plug for the vehicle 12 v charge socket ( or lighter plug in old world )

  • I am currently using the firewire port on my macbook pro to record dv from my camera. Can I capture video/audio using my USB port as well?ra

    I've been connecting a sony PD170 via firewire to my Macbook pro to record directly using Quicktime pro. Can I use the usb port (and mini audio in) to accomplish this with a camcorder that doesn't have a fire wire port but does have USB out?

    It could just be a bad disc - I use Verbatim and have only had one fail in a ten-year time period. Try getting a batch of Verbatims and see if you have any problems. I didn't even know that there were Kodak branded discs...

  • Acquiring Images using the USB port

    I want to acquire Images using the USB port of the PC. Is it possible to acquire images using the USB port and analyze the image using IMAQ library. If we use the USB port direct then we may not need the IMAQ vision acquisition card.

    Try Irene's drivers (see previous answer above), or Peter Parente's webcam drivers (www.mindofpete.org).
    cheers,
