I guess not, but i am just checking

But if I get a powered USB hub, it will not be USB 2.0
Right. Nothing you can plug into a USB 1.1 port can turn it into a USB 2.0 port. The only way to add USB 2 to a computer that didn't ship with it is to install a USB adaptor card in an expansion slot, and iMacs do not have the required slots nor can such slots be retrofitted to an iMac.

A printer that I have connected to my iMac via usb in not showing up in printer options on my iPhone or iPad and it use to before I upgraded to 8.1

A printer that I have connected to my iMac via usb in not showing up in printer options on my iPhone or iPad and it use to before I upgraded to 8.1. How can I fix this?

Is it an Airprint-compatible printer, and is its WiFi enabled if it is? (see: About AirPrint)
If it isn't an Airprint supported printer, then you need a 3rd party driver on your iMac to print from an iPhone. Such as Printopia. As it worked in the past you probably have such a printer driver installed; check and see if it's running.
Beyond that try restarting the printer, restarting the phone, restarting your router, and restarting your computer.

I use an Epson Stylus Office BX320FW printer with my IMac. Since upgrading OSX, I have lost the ability to print and scan. I have downloaded printer drivers from both Epson and Apple. I am using the printer in wifi mode but can not get it print or scan

Hi Everybody,
I use an Epson Stylus Office BX320FW printer with my IMac. Since upgrading OSX, I have lost the ability to print and scan. I have downloaded printer drivers from both Epson and Apple. I am using the printer in wifi mode but can not get it print or scan. How do I uninstall the Epson software and start all over again?

Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
Thanks for the advice, Bee
Cheers, Gerd

If I have a 2009 iMac, can I upgrade to use it with Apple TV. It doesn't have Airplay capability. If possible, what should I buy?

You need a newer 2011 or later iMac to use Airplay.
Sorry.
For older Mac, look at an app called AirParrot

I am experiencing difficulties opening some web-based PDF files on my iPad. I was having the same difficulty opening the same PDFs on my iMac (after I upgrade to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in settings.

I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
            "To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
- I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
- in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.
If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.
Cheers

How do I set up my iPhone 4s to sync automatically to iTunes when connected to my iMac via USB?

    How do I set up my iPhone 4s to sync automatically to iTunes when connected to my iMac via USB? Currently it only syncs when I manually click on sync.
    Somehow I do have my 5th gen. iPod set up to sync automatically with the same iTunes / computer. But I do not actually see a checkbox for either device.
    (yes, the 'prevent devices from automatically syncing' is unchecked)
thank you!

Turn off mobile data?
Talk to your carrier about the usage increase.
Googling provides many tips- https://www.google.com/search?q=reduce+iPhone+data+usage&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

I am using iMac OS 10.7.2 with Garageband'11 6.0.4. I can't record sound from mixer Behringer X1622USB using USB out. when I connect the mixer to iMac via USB appears USB Audio CODEC on Sound and preferences but no sound from mixer to iMac. Need help.

I am using iMac OS 10.7.2 with Garageband'11 6.0.4. I can't record sound from mixer Behringer X1622USB using USB out. when I connect the mixer to iMac via USB appears USB Audio CODEC on Sound and Preferences but I can't get no sound from mixer to iMac only sound from iMac to mixer. I only can record sound using microphone line in. Please help.

Eric,
Thanks for your reply. Realtek audio works only in playback. There is a stereo mix in the mixer but the recording controls are not operable with no sliders in the mixer for any recording option. Slider controls appear to be grayed out. Can't figure out how to enable them. Downloaded newest drivers to no avail.
The M Audio control panel has no apparent option for recording stereo mix. Adobe ignores the sound from the DVD or CD and shows flatline.
I'm trying to record the sound from the DVD not rip the track.
When I go to Audio Driver Setup and select Audition 3.0 windows sound, there is no input device installed.
I'm thinking of going back to a decent internal Soundblaster card like I have on my 8 year old machine I am replacing.

How "windows-ish" is an iMac's USB port?

Hi there, Mac-cognoscenti --
I'm interested in getting a GPS. My son-in-law showed me a pretty powerful-appearing one by Garmin. But when I asked him how you go about updating its sw or map info, he said they only support PCs (yeccch) as the platform from which you can do this. Naturally I am hoping that they start supporting Mac access as well, and you can be sure that I'll add my voice to that request as soon as I get one.
I believe that it now uses a USB connection between PC (yecccccccchhhh!) and GPS.
I'm planning on getting an iMac soon, and I understand that it can boot into Windows (yecccchhhhhhhhhh!) as well as MacOSX, and that using Parallels I can even run that other OS (q.v.) inside a Mac window.
I'm not looking fwd to this possibility because that will tempt others in my family to stray back into the Bad Old Ways rather than staying on the good side of He Who Provides lifetime tech support for our home LAN (c'est moi). +(Before the advent of Windoze-compatible Macs, I threw out all our Windoze machines and substituted Macs for them... now life is good for me, the tech support service...)+
Question: If I boot the iMac into Windows and run some sort of browser or FTP SW to glom the GPS updates into its filesystem, can anyone predict whether that OS can address the iMac's USB port(s) such that I can successfully D/L those updates into the GPS?

Hi Dan Kalikow: I have a Garmin C330 GPS, not a top of the line unit, but still a Garmin, so the situation is similar. I have Garmin software installed on my Mac, not windoze software, Mac software, and it works fine. I haven't done any map updates, but have done a Garmin software update. It worked flawlessly, as all of the other Mac related software I have used. Check out the Garmin site for more info: http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=3499 I hope this helps to keep the family from straying back to the "other side"

Can an iMac G4 be upgraded to an Intel processor?

I was wondering can an iMac G4 be upgraded to an Intel processor? This stems from the whole PPC no longer being supported by Adobe Flash etc.

No.
Kappy: That's replacing the computer, not upgrading it.

HT201257 I have an iMac (Mid 2007) upgraded to Lion OS. My fan runs all the time at high speed. I tried the SMT reset without results. I could not try the AHT test because it is not on my computer or install disk. Any suggestions what I can do to correct

I have an iMac (Mid 2007) upgraded to Lion OS. My fan runs at high speed all the time. I reset the SMT without results. I had no way to do the hardware test.
Can I fix this high fan speed?

Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
If the above doesn't help then create a new user account. Log into the new account. Does this fix the problem?

I have a 2006 iMac with an upgraded 640 gb hard drive. I seem to to be out of space, but if i add all the items, I get a different (100 gb!) answer than the Finder. Why?

I have a 2006 iMac with an upgraded hard drive, 640 gb. recently i've noticed that the Finder keeps saying I only hve 12 gb available. it lists 18 items under macintosh HD and if (using Get Info) you add up those 18 items I only come up with just over 500 gb of space. Where the other 140 gb's??

Here are some links as there are too many answers for this general question:

HT1386 When I plug my iPhone into my iMac via USB I can choose to "back up to this computer". On another sync to my iMac, can I choose to " back up to the iCloud"? This way I could restore all my info and settings from either source. Is this possible?

When I plug my iPhone into my iMac via USB I can choose to "back up to this computer". On another sync to my iMac, can I choose to " back up to the iCloud"? This way I could restore all my info and settings from either source. Is this possible?

On the phone, under Settings > iCloud you can select to turn iCloud ON or OFF.
One iTunes, it senses that toggle and if you had selected iCloud it will say backup to iCloud. Here you can change the toggle to backup to computer and click "Apply" prior to syncing.
I do both for good measure. I backup to computer and then after i disengage the device from the computer, I set the iCloud toggle back to ON and then perform the iCloud backup over wifi.
I found that using iTunes and saying to backup to iCloud isn't always successful in the "last backed up" time and thus I do it separately.

I'm in need for a thunderbolt display before December. My old Imac is like new (don't want to invest in a new Imac yet). Can I connect the thund-D to the old Imac via USB for the time being?

Their are some display adaptors you can get. I have an older Mac Pro with DVI but my monitor is a Thunderbolt Display. This used to be around $250. It is way cheaper now.

Is imac 20" fully upgraded compatible with high-def speakers?

god this must have been my 5th time posting the exact same thing. my dell takes forever to load this page!
im getting an imac 20" fully upgraded and i was wundering if its high-def compatible.. or does the sound that comes out of the imac good? or is it bad. and i need to know some tips and tricks on working an imac, to understand it a bit more, because if i do stuff like that i can connect to other apps probably, i dont know im not psychic

The iMac can display hi-def video, and can handle 96kHz audio @ 24-bit, and has an optical-out capable of outputting 5.1 surround (in fact, I think it might even be capable of outputting 7.1, but don't quote me). I believe it uses the Intel High Definition Audio chipset.
The internal speakers are the best internal speakers I've heard; they're surprisingly good for their small size and would certainly do for watching movies, etc. If you want something beefier, it's a snap to connect it up to an external amplifier (I have mine connected up to some Tannoy speakers).
As for your other questions, you might not be psychic, but we definitely aren't, so you'll have to be a bit more specific I'm afraid.
