IPhone sync takes bus power from other USB devices?

My external sound card/audio interface/whatever you want to call it completely disappears from Audio/MIDI Setup when iPhone syncs.  Does the phone require such an abnormally large amount of bus power that this would occur or is my situation unusual?

Thanks Lawrence; I think I'm starting to understand but have a few more questions. 
So, the audio business is running through the hub (not powered, bussed through one port on the laptop) and all those devices must not exceed .5 amps or else failure occurs (in something).
The phone runs through its own port (the one I leave open for things like thumbdrives, external hard drives, etc) and also can require (up to) .5 amps of power, the maximum that port can supply. 
If both ports have their limits, why is the phone causing failure in a discrete port exclusive of the phone?
I would totally understand the failure if the phone were hooked up to the hub alongside the audio interface, but it's not.  That makes total sense -- the port can only supply what it was designed to supply.  But why would the phone cancel other, separate, tasks if it has it's own dedicated port?

    If the modem is also a router, either use the modem in bridge and run pppoe client on the TC.. that is assuming ADSL or similar eg vdsl. If it is cable service.. and the modem is a router, then bridge the TC.. go to internet page and select connect by ethernet and below that set connection sharing to bridge.
    Please tell us more about the modem if the above gives you issues.

    iphone 4S will not charge, error that USB device not working, found any suggestions?

    Hello Chambless,
    The troubleshooting steps below can help get your iPhone to charge.
    If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
    Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
    Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
    Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
    If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
    Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
    Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
    Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
    Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
    If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
    If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.

  • Satellite 1800-804: How to boot from a USB device?

    I have a satellite 1800-804 and i like to know how to boot the notebook from a usb device.

    Hi
    If you want to boot from USB device you should press down U key on keyboard just after pressing power button but I dont know if this will work (as far as I know it works with external FDD device).
    Try to boot up the unit with start disk (FDD) and load the MS-DOS driver for the external CD/DVD-ROM if you can find it on manufacturers download page.

  • ITunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from an external drive (or streamed from other wireless devices). Any solution in sight?

    Video streaming of DRM movies, purchased from iTunes and other vendors, to any iOS device is not working.

    I am not sure if you really understand the issue at hand. Possibly that you are just scanning, not reading the whole text, or simply that you just want to close a thread with your last words or derail it for whatever strange reason. So far you have been more destructive than helpful, but again this could be ignorance at best.
    If you would have had the decency to read the entire thread you would have come to the conclusion that every manufacturer, I came across, has posted FAQ's to this issue but Apple. Find a short excerpt below:

Most forms of DRM (Digital Rights Management) will prevent playing movies on unauthorized devices or from remote storage hosted on wireless drives or NAS drives(Seagate Wireless, Seagate Wireless Plus, Seagate Central or Seagate Personal Cloud). Movies purchased from iTunes can be streamed to iOS 6 and iOS 7 devices which were authorized from remote storage (the video could be selected in Seagate Media App and would be played in a Safari browser), however in iOS 8 this has stopped working. A bug has been filed with Apple, however this functionality has not been restored. Therefore, DRM protected movies purchased on iTunes can no longer be played on devices running iOS 8.

Here are the remaining issues that we are aware of in the iOS 8 general release: • Video streaming of DRM movies (purchased from iTunes and other vendors): iTunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from AirStash (or streamed from other wireless devices). These movies are digitally protected and the AirStash app sends them to the Safari browser to play (which works for all prior iOS versions). However, in iOS 8, Safari will no longer allow DRM movies to play. These movies will play when the video is transferred to the iPhone/iPad and played in the Apple's Video App or the corresponding App from the vendor.

If this is the case and Apple will not address this issue or fix it since Apple believes that movies should be protected this way, you need to let the community know that movies are restricted this way.

  • Ejecting iPod causes other USB devices to be ejected at the same time.

    When ejecting an iPod Nano 4g from iTunes under Windows Vista, all other USB devices attached to the computer are also ejected at the same time (external hard drives, thumb drives, scanners, etc.). Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

    Express is slow ethernet.. 10/100 only. The max speed of any connection to a USB hard disk is limited severely by the 100mbit..
    USB is always slow btw.. This is actually a poor way to share a drive. A cheap NAS.. ie ethernet to Sata directly is far far superior and a single disk NAS can be had cheaply.. you will never get close with USB in network situations.
    If you use a hub though, you can plug multiple disks into an Extreme.. I guess the network speed is at least no worse than the USB hub -- ethernet devices which are lousy as a whole.
    Never forget you have the fastest ethernet adapters and fastest possible connectors already on computers on the network.. people are so utterly mesmerized by NAS they forget.. a FW800 or better USB3 if you have a newer computer shared to the network from a computer has much higher throughput and is much cheaper than even the very low end network stand alone boxes.

    How do I get the iCloud to save and sync and upload info from both the devices on my account. Right now I can only do one

    You must put each device on the Verizon cloud.
    Not both lines on one.
    Go and set up a my Verizon account for the second line and you will have Verizon cloud service on that line.
    Oh the term "icloud" is a trademark of Apple Inc. Verizon is not Apple.
    Good Luck

    How big is your library?  I would recommend the following troubleshooting steps:
    - Backup your library.  Always a good idea before messing with things.  
    - Create a new library.   Refer to this article for details:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589.  This won't delete your old library, you're just creating a new empty one.  Also refer to this article to get back to your old library later.
    - Add a few albums into this new library.  Not everything, just a small sampling, as a test.
    - Activate Match on this new library.  You shouldn't have to re-pay, it should just say "Add Computer" or similar.
    - At this point, Match should run again. With just a few albums it should complete in just a few minutes.
    If iTunes doesn't crash at this point, then likely there's something about your original library that Match doesn't like - what that is I don't know, but at least you'll know it's not your PC.   If iTunes still crashes, then if could be a number of other things, but probably not your library.   My next suggestion (if you haven't already done this) is to uninstall / reinstall iTunes.   If that doesn't work, then my next ideas you won't like.

    Hi
    I have Satellite M70-159 and I didnt notice any strange problem with USB ports. I use a few of them like printer, webcam, USB memory stick, optical mouse and external HDD. The devices are recognized properly and I remove them always without safe remove option.
    Now I have Vista preinstalled and till now there is no problem. If I understood you right USB ports are working well but there is problem with USB modem only. Am I right?
    Try also to contact modem producer support. Maybe is issue like this known and hopefully they have some logical explanation.

  • Portege A100 PPA10A - Will BIOS update allow to boot from a USB device

    Hi,
    I have an Old Portege A100, Model: PPA10A-0002LP, but I can't seem to find that model on any Toshiba website, closest I've seen is the " PPA10A-0002L".
    I'm wanting to see if there's a BIOS update that will allow me to Boot from a USB Device.
    The issue I am having is that I need to reinstall Windows, but the CD ROm cant read discs.
    It does Network Booting PXE, but i'm new to this sort of thing and have absolutly no idea what to do there.
    Any help would be great,
    Thanks

    Hi
    Portege A100 seems to be developed only for Australian market.
    As you said there is a Portege A100 PPA10A-0002L model number listed on the Toshiba Australian page but the Portege A100 PPA10A-0002LP belongs to the same series which is PPA10A.
    So in my opinion the BIOS should work too.
    Anyway, I doubt that the BIOS update will add any further booting options.
    Usually the BIOS support the booting from CD/DVD drive, HDD, LAN and USB FDD.
    It should be possible to boot from a bootable diskette using an USB FDD drive.
    I doubt you would be able to boot from USB ODD since this Portege A100 supports an internal CD/DVD drive.

  • Can Satellite L40-139 boot from a USB device?

    Hello,
    I have a new L40-139. Looking through the BIOS I cannot find an option to boot from a USB device such as a USB HDD or USB flash drive. Could someone confirm if teh L40-139 can boot from USB, and is so how to configure the BIOS for this.
    If it cannot does anybody know if there are plans for a BIOS update that would allow this?
    I have to admit that while I like the L40, I am disappointed at how limited the BIOS is.
    Thanks,

    Hello
    I am not 100% sure but, as far as I know, you can not use USB HDD as first bootable device. USB FDD yes, but with external HDD it will not work.

    My messages are not going through or coming in from other iOS devices.  Having to send and receive in SMS.  What is up?  Anyone else having these issues?

    There's an article that Apple has acknowledged this issue. They recommend turning off imessages, reset all settings and then reactivate imessages.
    If that doesn't work, you may just have to wait until they release an update, which should be pretty soon.
