  • I get message "your Ipod is not compatible with attached accessory"

    I recently purchased a Belkin TuneBase FM for iPod to use in my car as a mount, FM transmitter, and car charger. After installing it into my car's power outlet and inserting my Ipod Video into it, I get the message "your Ipod is not compatible with the attached accessory". It does charge up my iPod battery, however my iPod screen does not display the FM frequency that the Belkin TuneBase is transmitting on and so I cannot adjust the frequency to get it to work. I have the latest version of Ipod firmware installed, I tried restoring my iPod to factory settings, nothing is working.

    think that fm accessory is not compatible with 5g ipods . just check it in www.apple.com

  • TS1647 My Macbook Pro will not print anything from any program. I've reinstalled the drivers. I get an error message in Word that says, "Word could not communicate with printer." Any ideas?

    My Macbook Pro will not print anything from any program. I've reinstalled the drivers. I get an error message in Word that says, "Word could not communicate with printer." Any ideas?

    Be sure to try restarting, if you have not done so since this problem occurred.  You should also power off the printer while you do the restart...
    If that does not help, you can try resetting the printing system.  Open System Preferences Print & Scan (or Print & Fax) pane.  In the sidebar with list of printers, right (control) click anywhere.  Select Reset printing system.  You will have to add back your printers after you do this.

    itunes showing 'backup is corrupt or not compatible with the firmware you restored'.Please help.

    Hi Ckuan,
    Thanks a lot for your advice.    
    Deleting the correupted back up means to delete the information of one month since the last back up I made is one month ago.....right? 
    This back up I made right before I restored my iphone.  During the restore however my OS was upgraded to 5.1.1. and reading the comments on the internet it seems I am not the only one whom experience this problem. 
    Can it be that if I downgrade my OS back to 5.1. the back up will not be considered as corrupted?  If so, how do I downgrade the iphone?
    Thanks in advance.

  • ITunes Video not compatible with 5th generation 60GB video iPod

    I downloaded several videos from the iTunes store to my Mac G4 1.67 powerbook. When updating my iPod, I received a message that some of the videos, really only one, was not downloaded to the iPod because the format was not compatible with my new 5th generation iPod. It seems to play fine on my G4. How can there be a compatibility problem with at video purchased from iTunes and downloaded to a Mac and transferred to a 5th generation iPod ? Anyone have any suggestions ? Thanks.

    Thank you, lllaass.  Of course, an apple user remarks to this fact in their review. Are all courses going to have reviews attached? Why do I have to read reviews on courses to get this information?  Who is writing the review?  It's not an apple official. How reliable is information in reviews?  I've read reviews that have incorrect information. Why not put the fact that a course is incompatible with iPod right in the course description. It would save a lot of time and wasted bandwidth. Why was the book allowed to be downloaded onto an unsupported device? 

  • Sony iPod Dock Not Compatible with iOS 4

    I play a 3GS through a Sony HD-radio with a dock on the top. Upgrading the 3GS to 4.0 resulted in a popup that says "this accessory is not compatible with iPhone." It was yesterday - now it isn't. Apple: Did you break accessory compatibility on purpose? If not, will you please fix?
    Message was edited by: Four to the Side

    I invested in a nice expensive Sony wireless speakers sound system with an iphone dock. Worked perfectly until the stupid 4.0 update came out, and now it brings out the same stupid error message all the time and I can't play any streaming media, on the sound system, which was the main reason I bought the originally compatible sound system. Great job apple !! They are trying to expand too fast, and now they are producing mediocre products ! I am really upset about this ! I just want to downgrade the **** software back to 3.1 and then never update it again :?

  • My new ipod is not compatible with my Mac computer. what do I need to do ?

    My Mac computer with an operating system 10.5.8 is not compatible with the new ipod nano I just purchased. What are my options?

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, none. You may want to ask for a refund.
    If it's an Intel Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update twice.
    If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

    Ipod was fully charged.
    Any ideas please as I am not the most technical of people and its slowly driving me mad
    Kind Regards

    How did you try and reset the iPod? To reset the iPod, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together at the same time long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  Don't be afraid to try this procedure more than once.

  • Convert video not compatible with QT7 to use in iMovieHD

    Unfortunately sometimes I just have my photo camera and I need to record a video.
    It records .mov files with m-jpeg codec 320*240 15fps at aprox. 2000 kbps.
    These files are compatible only with QT 6 but not in QT7 or later. I have search about this and I find no solution (just more people with the same problem).
    The only solution I found is to convert the files to another format.
    The only applications I can use are ffmepx (with some settings) and movieconverter (it converts just to DV or DVD). mpegStreamclip does fail in every export setting.
    What will be a good workflow with those files for importing in iMovieHD and then to iDVD?
    1.- Convert to DV with movieconverter
    2.- Convert to H264 with ffmpegx. In this case: keeping the original resolution of 320*240? and 15fps?
    3.- Any other suggestion?
    As an added problem sometimes I have to turn the video 90º. So I need first convert and then open in mpegstreamclip and export again and turn. Can I achieve this without having to convert it two times.

    I am trying to import some random videos and get a message "not compatible" - how do I convert these videos?? They are NOT from my video camera, but downloaded.
    Unlike previous versions of iMovie, iMovie '08 does not convert "Finder" level files as part of the import process since it cannot tell in which compression format you may wish to edit. Thus, if a file is not "edit" compatible, then it will not be imported. The normal approach is to open your file in the QT Player and examine the file using the "Inspector" and/or "Properties" window to determine how the file must be changed to make it edit compatible. For instance, the audio and/or video track(s) may be incompatible or an extraneous track may be present which "confuses" iMovie '08. "Muxed" files, for instance, must be demuxed and then have audio and video content be converter to temporally synchronized compression formats which can be edited at the "frame" level. Sometimes only the audio content needs to be converted to make the clip compatible. In these cases, it may be possible to easily convert the audio without having to to re-compress the video which is more time consuming and/or may introduce additional artifacts. In still other cases, the file may contain an extraneous track (e.g., a "Tween") which and be deleted or stripped without having to perform any conversion. Therefore, how to "convert" a file for the "best" quality may depend on what needs to be done to make it compatible and/or which application is best suited for the job.
    Having said all this, can you examine your downloaded files and break them down in specific problem types and give some idea as to your goals/needs -- i.e., are you most interested in conserving drive space, conversion efficiency, or quality?

  • QT Pro recorded video not compatible with FCP?

    Is a video recorded in QT Pro compatible with FCP?
    I was getting errors earlier today importing QT video clips recorded in QT Pro.
    FCP said "unknown file type" and wouldn't import it.
    I tried different decks, different footage, all to no avail.
    Drag and drop, file>Import, neither worked.
    I never tried this before and was surprised.
    It's not that it needed rendering, it just wouldn't import.
    QT was set to use the native format of the recording device.
    FCP was set to DV NTSC easy set up.
    OS 10.4.7, QT 7.1.2, FCP 5.0.4.
    Thanks,
    Richard

    G5 dual 2 gig   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    The files open fine in QT player.
    640 X 480 was the QT captured frame size, 29.97 fps, and it was captured as "device native" in QT preferences. The source tapes where mini DV/NTSC so its frame size should be 720 X 480.
    If this frame size is the problem, why is QT pro recording a 640 X 480 image when the original is 720 X 480? Also, can't FCP handle a 640 X 480 QT video size anyway?
    I tried different tapes with different decks and kept coming up with the "file not recognized" error when trying to import into FCP.
    Thanks for your help,
