IOS4.2 kills Camera Kit operation in combination with USB-Sticks and more

Hi guys,
When I decided to go for an iPad, one of the main reasons why not to stay with Microsoft was the connectivity in combination with cameras and USB-sticks.
Well then, the update to iOS4.2 killed this because the software seems to lower the max.current limit from 200mA down to some 20mA. This "unfriendly" action by Apple is in my opinion fraud. I bought a lot of accessories to work with the iPod and all of them I can now dump into the trash cane, because Apple is doing the same ignorant "politics" to consumer just like their biggest rival Microsoft.
This is company arrogance in excellence....
...never again an Apple product, that was is, over

I'm experiencing the same problem and Apple is jacking me around. A great product but behind the phone are no customer service.
Bring back the true IPAD and apple fix the problem.
Apple can read the Dissuasions and do something about it.
Unhappy customer too

My iPad camera photos will wirelessly sync with my iMac and iCLoud photo stream, but the videos do not, is USB connection the only way to transfer videos or is there also a wireless method?

Videos are not included with the Photo Stream. Photo Stream is for photos only.
There is not a wireless method for importing videos from the iPad's Camera Roll.

Try going to Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your iCloud ID. (If you have this problem with iMessage do the same thing in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive.)

Think M72e start windows 7 with usb stick inserted

I know in the scheme of things my M72e annoyance is pretty minor,but I am more curious than exasperated.
If I try to start the machine with a usb stick in any of the ports it won't boot into windows 7and I get a "No bootable partition in table" message and the machine just hangs there.
If I remove the usb stick and restart, it boots to windows 7 fine.
Obviously, i figured that the machine is trying to boot off the usb stick before the harddrive. So I went into the bios but there is no option to boot off the hardrive first.
I can press F12 and it gives me a one time option to boot off the hardrive but I don't want to have to do this everytime.
Anybody know why Lenovo in its wisdom hobbled the boot choices in the bios?
Thanks,

There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio from garageband be the sound when recording and not just your normal voice but garage band effects for youtube?

How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio form garageband be apart of the video when recording, meaning the audio from garageband and echo and not just your normal voice for youtube post?its not add the garageband audio its just normal voice from mic no effects is going thru?

Hi Life93,
What you describe would be possible by recording your video, then removing the audio from it and adding audio from GarageBand once the video is in iMovie (I presume here that you are using iMovie for your video production. Other applications may need different methods.)
See this thread on how to remove the audio from a clip in iMovie -

I copied mp3 files from a usb stick and they appear in music folder in finder and on iPhone/ipad with itunes match but not in iTunes?

I copied mp3 files from a usb stick and they appear in finder in my itunes media/music folder and on my iphone and ipad with itunes match but not in the itunes library?

Not working. And it didn't used to be a problem. iTunes can find the songs with Search Library, but doesn't show in any index (by song, artist or album). Finding with Search Library offers to play or add to Up Next, but neither actually does anything. Using File-Add to Library does nothing as well. The only way I can get the new files to play is to find in Finder and Open with iTunes.
I suspect Apple is trying to drive me to buy from iTunes store. Not gonna happen. If they don't fix this, I'll find another player.
This worked fine before OSX 10.8.

Recommendations for external monitor in combination with USB 3.0 dock and X1 carbon touch

Dear Community,
I'm waiting for my X1 carbon touch and USB 3.0 dock and keyboard/mouse to arrive any time soon. However, I'd be glad to get some help/recommendations on external monitor choice.
For instance, the new HP envy 27" caught my eye, since it includes speakers, but it comes with HDMI and Displayport connections only. As far as I understood, video connection itselft shouldn't be a problem using a DVI to HDMI adaptor, but how about the resolution of the X1 vs. a HD+ monitor, and how do I use the audio on this monitor (don't want to use the microphone jack in front of the dock, as it should look as minimalistic as possible)?
Is there a solution? via usb 3.0? or should I better consider another monitor? Anyways, DVI or HDMI, I don't want to connect a separate audio system to the dock. Any recommendations, or is it one of those gadgets that has not been thought through well enough and you need to wait for the next generation to be developed?
Many thanks for your help,
Cheers, jcd

Since you don't want to use the jack on the dock, you could usethemini-DisplayPortontheX1cTouchasyourvideooutputoption because the version of DP on the X1c Touch includes the ability for audio to streamed over the DP connection in addition to video. This would require a compatible DP monitor.
You'll also want the monitor to support audio over the DP connection. The X1c Touch's graphics supports the output of an audio stream over DP and the machine should be be capable of this. This gives you two cables connecting to the X1c Touch -- the DP cable for audio and video and the USB 3.0 cable connecting to the dock. The dock would be attached to keyboard, mouse, USB accessories, and Ethernet (if necessary).
As far as what to look for in a monitor, my general recommendation is Dell Ultrasharp. They tend to be a good deal for an IPS monitor with at least an sRGB gamut and a solid warranty. I've never bothered to attempt to stream audio over DP because I have separate speakers for audio. In the same way that my last 3 laptops have been ThinkPads, my last three monitors have been Dell Ultrasharps. The graphics in the X1c Touch should be fine running a 1920x1080, so I wouldn't worry about resolution. It can be a little jarring to use monitors side-by-side when they have different pixel densities, so you'll likely end up treating them as separate display surfaces. I often have e-mail and Pandora open on my T420's screen while I'm doing the bulk of my work on my main monitors. If you think you'll be touching the screen a good bit, then you might want to look into buying a touch capable monitor. Otherwise your brain can become easily confused because it'll begin to think that all computer screens are touch-capable and you'll reach out and try to touch your desktop monitor without thinking.

Problem with USB installer and OS X Mavericks

Hi,
I found an interesting issue with a usb installer for OS X Mavericks where I used the Terminal to evoke OS X Mavericks disk maker utility. The boot able drive was created successfully and I erased my OS X partition and proceeded to install via the USB recovery utility. Unfortunately, while I was installing OS X Mavericks via this usb during the end of the installation the hard drive in my MacBook stopped functioning and apparently it was my computer going into sleep mode, although the monitor was turned on. I just noticed that the progress bar while the installer is unpacking just stopped and got stuck in the counter while saying about a second.
I tried two times installing via the recovery utility and to my surprise the issue occurred again. Therefore I am not using the internet recovery option for OS X and recovering from a Time Machine back up and should be back in Mountain Lion shortly. I think I am going ahead and install in place to avoid further issues and waste of my time.
Therefore, my question is, has anyone experience something similar to what I have described here while using an OS X Mavericks bootable usb installer?
Many thanks for your time and assistance.

Apparently, I am not the only one with this issue this is what an ArsTechnica viewer wrote:
Does the USB Stick installer only work on the computer where it was generated, e.g. due to pre-selected hardware drivers or something? I downloaded 10.9 on an iMac 27" 2011 and created the installer on a 8 GB USB 2.0 stick on that same machine, as described above.
However installation on a (test) MacBook Pro 13" mid 2010 did not work (existing installation was 10.8.5, in case that matters).
I booted successfully from the stick (holding the option key after turning on the MBP), wiped out the hard disk from the Disk Tool, then went on with the installation.
A progress bar appeared, saying something like "Preparing installation. Will automatically restart." The progress bar came to an end, saying "about a second" - and hung forever.
I then quit the installer manually after some minutes of waiting and rebooted without the USB stick, but no bootable partition was found (a blinking disk or so appeared).
I retried twice, noticing that no hard disk noise was to be heard while the progress bar moved (probanly some fixed time interval in the setup routine). Additionally in the Log window there appeared just one line from the very beginning like "Can not connect to /var/run/systemkeychaincheck.socket: No such file or directory"
Exactly like described here by someone else:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5474543?tstart=0
(In fact there are several such entries).
What does the installer do at this point? I am currently re-installing the previous 10.8 via Internet Recovery (the download speed is as expected and steady - so I don't think the Installer is stuck by trying to download something while "Preparing the installation" - or would it?
http://arstechnica.com/apple/2013/10/how-to-make-your-own-bootable-os-x-10-9-mav ericks-usb-install-drive/?comments=1&start=40
I am going to try my luck with the OS X Mavericks installer using the DiskMaker X utility once I upgrade in place using Mavericks.

Resource fork et al deletion with usb stick drives

I know there are lots of discussions about 'extra files' not used by other operating systems (such as resource forks and .Trashes and .DS_Stores and spotlight files and and whatever) so I hope this doesn't bore people but....
I use a usb stick a lot, mostly to share data cross-platform. I want to get rid of the unusable files to make my colleagues' life easier and unclog my life. I know I prevent some of them over network connections, but that is only some of them, and that is only over network connections.
I can't disable the creation of these using the method that applies to network connections (Article: HT1629).
Can I just go to terminal and go:
cd /Volumes/USBStick
rm -fr .*
This is seeming to work. I get an error about not being able to delete the . file and the .. file, but it happily goes ahead and gets rid of the rest.
Seeing that it appears to work, can I dispense with paying for BlueHarvest (at least for my situation)? Or have I inadvertently destroyed essential data and should expect imminent falling of the sky upon my head?
thanks all,
diddles.

Definitely a yawn here. As your wonderful machine is the source of this important data that's transferred over to that 'other' platform, convince your colleague that his life will be easier still if he buys a Mac. Thereafter, the invisible files will be just that.
An expensive solution, but I think a good one.

Windowsxp.iso on a 2gb usb stick, and install windows with bootcamp?

Will that work?
I got os x lion and snow leopard 10.6.8 and 10.6.1.

So practically speaking there's no real need for me to have all these files in a LR catalog.
My philosophy is the exact opposite. I believe that you want to use Lightroom to organize and manage and search for all of your photos. Yes, ALL, 100%.
I have one tool (Lightroom) via which I can find all of my photos. I always know which search tool to use to find my photos, regardless of which one of my three cameras was used. I don't have to use two different schemes, and to remember which photo was taken by which camera.
Today, you may indeed remember that this specific photo is was taken with your Canon, and that photo was taken with your Fuji and so today, you can esily find your photos. The problem is: as the years go by, you most likely will NOT remember which camera took which photo. I cannot remember, for most of my photos, which camera took the photos; nor do I even try to remember. These details WILL fade in your memory over time. If you have one tool for searching for a photo, you know which tool to use, and you can find the photo. If you have two different tools, and you open the wrong tool, you have wasted some time.
Furthermore, if you ever want to do a search for photos that were taken by BOTH cameras ... for example, all pictures of your dog, which were taken with both cameras ... you cannot do this search if you have two tools. Two search/catalog methods effectively means you have eliminated your ability to do certain types of searches. One search/catalog method means you can do this search.

Problems with USB connection and PC Suite

Connecting your device to the PC via USB doesn´t always work as smooth as it should. You can either use the setup´s repair function or if you are experiencing more serious problems, you need to uninstall all Nokia software form your phone and get it back on to make to work again.
This is how you do it:
Run the Nokia PC Suite setup file again and choose "repair" instead of "uninstall". This should solve some of the connectivity problems. If it didn´t work for you continue with the instructions below.
Go to Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Software, there you need to uninstall all Nokia software (Nokia PC Suite, Nokia Cable driver, PC Connectivity Solution ...)
Download and run Nokia PC Suite Cleaner
Reboot your computer
Download and install PC Suite here.
Connect your phone via USB cable (if possible use a different USB jack) and follow the instructions on the screen.
Now you´re set up to manage your phone with PC Suite!

IPhone Issues with USB Connection and Bluetooth in GM cars

I recently purchased a 2009 Chevy Cobalt SS/TC and it has a USB connection for an iPod. Prior to the 2.1 updated the USB connection worked flawless as well did my handsfree/bluetooth. I had the Apple Genius Bar check my iPhone for any issues due to a corrupt update but everything turned up fine. When i connect to my car I receive an error message (iPod Did Not Authenticate. Check iPod Version). Also my bluetooth will sync but when you answer the phone using hands free you get no audio from the iPhone or speakers in the car. I used a friends iPod and everything worked fine but when I connect with a new iPod it displays the same error. I have contacted GM but they said talk to Apple.
If anyone can help please let me know.
Thanks

Hey J,
Well you got me thinking about your question, and I guess I didn't get it the first time. Again, I own the same car - 09 Chevy Cobalt SS/TC, Black. A lot of fun! I plugged my iPhone into the radio USB connection and get the same error. The GM radio does not support the iPhone. It will not authenticate. The GM radios' firmware is looking for an iPod, not an iPhone. That is expected. As far as the iPhone and it's Bluetooth, again the iPhone's Bluetooth hands free works fine, except I cannot answer the iPhone during an incoming call without first unlocking the iPhone then pressing the mute button on the steering wheel. For what it's worth the iPhone will charge through the USB connection. I'm a little confused on what you are trying to connect. Bottom line, an iPod should always work, an iPhone, not at all. Lastly, I have purchased the GM Personal Audio Link (PAL) and hope to use it with my iPod so I can put the iPod in the glove compartment. Although I have heard a lot of negative comments and issues with it for being slow and sluggish. If so, I'll be sending it back and I'll stay with the USB connection. I'll let you know how that works.
