Is it possible to install a USB 2.0 card in an old eMac?

Hi,
This is probably an embarrassingly ignorant question, but I'd be grateful to know whether I can install a USB 2.0 card in my old eMac 1GHz PowerPC G4 (1GB RAM) running 10.5.6, which only has the old USB 1 ports buitl in. Basically, I'd like to be able to sync my iPhone and attach other newer peripheral devices, such as external hard drives with USB 2.0 connections.
Thanks!

Why it is not possible to install apps on an SD card on a Win 8.1 tablet?

Why it is not possible to install apps on an SD card on a Win 8.1 tablet? If it is possible to install apps on SD card in Windows phone 8.1, why is it not possible on Windows 8.1? What sort of design philosophy you follow that gives better features on
a mobile version of the OS but not on the parent OS? Kindly explain if you can!

Hello,
I'd ask in the

Cant Install updates for Google Play Apps - Error - Unable to install to USB or SD Card.

I have recently noticing an increase in an error popping up - cant install to USB or SD card. Any one got a solution for that other than jailbreaking or rooting my phone to fix the issue?

Eolnolatari,
Sorry to hear you are having trouble with downloading apps. We certainly want you to have the benefits available to you. Are you getting this error message when trying to download any particular types of apps? Normally this app is attributed to movable applications, which is not standard for all Android apps. How much internal and external storage do you have available? If you are low on internal storage that means you may have to delete non-used apps to create space for others. Keep us updated on this and we will make sure we get this all figured out.
Thank you,

Is it possible to install a usb-6009 in Dasylab?

I need to install a usb-6009 in Dasylab, but Dasylab does not recogise daqmx-devices, or so it seems.
In MAX, I can see that I have traditional NI DAQ installed (7.4.2f3), but the usb devices are listed as daqmx devices.
Is there any way to trick Dasylab into seeing my device?
I usually work in Labview, but now I need to replicate a measurement from a colleague from Ethiopia and Dasylab is confusing in the beginning.
Would it be easier to use a pci card (we have pci 6220 available)?

I want to apologize in advance for incomplete technical competence
in the subject, because my amateur level of training.
I also want to apologize to experienced professionals
and especially Mr. CJ_Butler,
for my English machine translation.
I hope you will indulgent to the Russian citizen,
who is actively interested in operation
of the device NI USB-9006 program DASYLab.
In Russia, unfortunately, very few know
about object-oriented programming in the program DASYLab
(compared with a developed system of training LabVIEV).
Given the popularity of the brand as the NI USB- 6009 ,
I would like to understand in detail the stages of installation,
work in the program DASYLab. ( I use DASYLab 11 , in Windows XP)
My first question is as follows :
why I can not directly see and work with the NI USB- 6009 program DASYLab,
as it comes with a sound card or other devices e.g. , Measurement Computing?
When you open the tab «Hardware Setup» error appears: «No hardware driver loaded»?
Can we do without NI MAX ( task creation and other unnecessary actions (!),
and produce all presets in the program DASYLab (Hardware Settings)?
Indeed, in the program directory has the files as : nddi.dll, niezio.dll?
Why they can not determine the direct control of NI USB- 6009 in DASYLab?
2) Is there a " prime-driver » DASYLab for NI USB- 6009 in DASYLab 11 ? ? ?
Or how else can modify DASYLab driver (DASYLab NI-DAQmx (?)) for NI USB- 6009 ?

Sync issues after installing Dynex USB 2.0 Card Bus Adapter

I can't seem to get my iPod to sync via itunes. The only way I can seem to get it done is by pulling the cable and then putting it back in. It syncs just fine when connected to my USB 1 port. It's slow, but it's functional.
Has anyone else experienced this?

I know you said you reset the cpu but i just want to clarify.
Have you reset the PMU? It's the little pencil eraser size button on the motherboard, sometimes red or black.
Shut down your computer, unplug the power cord and press the PMU button once and only once.
Then restart and see if that solves it.

E9280t can't boot with USB 3.0 cards (multiple vendors tried) New e9280t BIOS version needed

Hello...
I purchased a new e9280t last year from the HP Website complete with 9 gb memory (now 16), Blu-ray/DVD writer & reader, Hauppauge Digital TV tuner, ATI Radeon 4850 Dual Monitor video card, etc... SInce then I've added more memory and a 3 port Firewire 400/800 card. Its running Win 7 Pro (sp1) and the BIOS is v5.29.
I purchased a external USB 3.0 WD drive (3 TB) and a StarTech USB 3.0 card (Amazon.com). After installing the USB 3.0 card, the system would power on for one second and die and then do it again a couple seconds later and the cycle continued until the power cord was pulled. I then pulled the USB 2.0 card and tried again only to have the same results. The only cards that remained in the system during the testing was the ATI card and the Hauppuage TV Card.
Thinking the problem was with the USB 3.0 card, I purchased another vendor's (Rocketfish from BestBuy) and installed it. The same problem as with the other USB 3.0 card, the system won't start.
No driver software or any other changes were made to the system before installation attempts (per vendor's installation instructions).
Since the failures all occur during the initial power up sequence and that the cards were tried with and without having power connected to them, that the problem is only correctable with a BIOS upgrade for the TRUCKEE motherboard. I could be wrong but I'm going on 30 years of hardware experience as my framework for that opinion.
If anyone else has this same problem, It would be good to rally around and see if HP notices us.
Thanks,
Norm
This question was solved.

Greetings,
I have tried multiple vendors and have yet to find a USB 3 card that will allow the computer to boot (for more than a 1/10th of a second).
I've tried removing every card in the system except the the display card and no go. Two of the cards removed had power connectors to them and the third did not. So even after removing those cards along with disconnecting one of the two internal hard drives, I'm certain its not a power issue. As to what it might be, I don't know.
If anyone else has been able to get a USB 3 card to work in that system, I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks,
Norm

Is it possible to install Oracle linux from usb?

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to install Oracle linux from usb? If yes, may I know the exact procedures to do so.
I am using linux ubuntu and I tried to make a bootable usb with the dvd iso of oracle linux 6 using Unetbootin software. The installation started well.
but after formatting the harddisk, I got an error as shown below
Missing ISO 9660 image
The installer has tried to mount image #1, but cannot find it on the hard drive.
I think ISO 9660 image is something connected with the CD image or something. But not sure...
Can anyone help me out with this situation.... Thank you..

HI
I know this is an old post but has anyone resolved this issue? I am trying to install OEL 6U4 via usb with no luck. Keep getting Missing ISO 9660 Image. I have tried all the tools under the sun to write it to USB, also tried copying the iso to the Boot disk.. as stated above... no luck ....
I have checked the installation files using md5 and they are fine... just in case downloaded it again as well as 6U3 and 6U0.
I have installed almost every version of linux there is... but OEL is definitely the most difficult and after 3 days, I am ready to give up. Any idea?
BTW. I am using utilities on windows 8 to write the iso to USB.
Thanks

Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad? I want to bring RAW photo files from my camera, through the IPad and back to an external hard drive. One of my cameras does not use an SD card. How can I do this?

Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad? I want to bring RAW files from my camera through the IPad and out to an external hard drive. One of my cameras has an SD card but the other one doesn't have a card that would fit in any of the camera devices I've seen on line. Realted to this, I bought the IPad camera accessory. Can I put the SD card in the device and also hook the external hard drive to the USB port of the accessory and download from the camera to the hard drive? Can I put Lightroom or the Nikon photo editing software on the IPad? Right now I carry a PC laptop and external hard drives with me on wildernes trips. Internet and WiFi are not available. Because I shoot so many photos and they're in RAW I need to download from the camera to the external drive because I run out of memory on the PC (and it has much more memory than the IPad). I have Nikon NX software and lightroom on my PC. I'd love to be able to reduce the weight I carry by using the IPad to edit my photos each night while on trips. Is this possible and how would I do it? I'd appreciate any guidance.

No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

Possible to Install Leopard on External HD and Boot on Another Mac?

Is it possible to install the Leopard upgrade DVD onto an External HD, AND THEN use the external HD to boot Leopard onto another Mac? Also, since the upgrade disc is an "upgrade," would I have to first install Tiger onto the External HD?
If possible...
Am I able to create an External Boot Drive that can boot both onto a PPC Mac and also onto an Intel Mac? Or will I have to create separate partitions?
Lastly, can Intel Macs boot from an External USB Drive? Or are FireWire Drives required? Thanks!

Yes, you can install on an external drive and boot the Mac. I do it all the time.
I'm not 100% sure whether the same drive can boot PPC and Intel Macs -- I don't think so because PPC macs require Mac formatting and Intel Macs require GPT formatting to boot.
Intel Macs can boot off both USB and Firewire external drives. PPC Macs can only boot off Firewire external drives. In any case, Firewire is better as it's quite a bit faster.

Is it possible to install windows 8.1 on macbook pro late 2013?

hi ,
Is it possible to install windows 8.1 on late 2013 macbook pro?
I have tried installing it twice but both of the time i got an error
Windows could not update the computer's boot configuration. Installation cannot proceed.

Maybe people have found a solution already but yesterday I managed to install Win 8.1 as a BootCamp on my new 15" retina MBP. I followed the steps John Guo described but with a couple of changes as his approach failed for me.
1. Make sure you are starting from a single partition.
2. Create the Windows install USB from the ISO and also allow BootCamp Assistant to create download the drivers - but untick the option to install windows.
3. Open Disk Utility and create a new partition and format as MS-DOS (FAT) rather than leave as free space.
4. Restart your Mac and use the option to boot into the Windows part of the USB not the EFI-boot.
5. Follow the install
6. When it comes to the drive selection select the FAT drive. Windows installer will say it cannot install here as it needs to be and NTFS partitiion (in previous atempts I always got the message to say the partitiion was using GUI partition table so could not install even though it was formatted to NTFS).
7. The format to NTFS should work fine and install proceed.
8. When the installer reboots the machine you will need to use the boot option to ensure you boot back into Windows.
9. Once installed the bootcamp driver install runs automatically and for me all drivers run fine even the NVIDIA, which I've seen some people mention having issues with.
I was inpressed with Windows automatically scaling the text to 200%, which meant it was using the full 2880x1800 resolution so everything was crisp but the windows and text was scaled nicely. I changed this 150% to give me some more real estate.
I'm guessing that by formatting the new partition as FAT it creates a MBP within the new drive that is writable by windows but I'm not a windows guru so this is a guess. But anyway, this work perfectly.
hope this helps some people.

Is it possible to install Windows 7 on Retina MacBook with a shared CD drive?

My school provides Windows 7 Ultimate upgrades to students
My friend installed Windows 7 normally even though it's technically an upgrade (burned the .img file to a DVD using Disk Utility and installed it through the Boot Camp Assistant tool in Snow Leopard)
I own a 2008 MacBook which has an optical drive
I own 1, 2 GB thumb drive and 1, 4 GB thumb drive
Is it possible to install Windows 7 through my Retina MacBook Pro through a shared CD connection with my 2008 MacBook?
I tried using the Boot Camp Assitant tool.
I burned the Windows 7 upgrade .img file to a DVD with Disk Utility just like my friend
I copied that DVD as a .cdr file to my Retina MacBook using the shared CD connection and Disk Utility, and changed the file extension to .iso
With the Boot Camp Assistant, I set-up my 4 GB thumb drive
When I get to the "Create a Partition for Windows" screen and I press install, I get the message "The installer disc could not be found".
The DVD is in my 2008 MacBook and I mounted it on the Retina MacBook. The 4 GB Windows set-up thumb drive is connected to the Retina MacBook.
I'm confused as to what I'm doing wrong.
Any help is appreciated.

1. can i install a SSD? 2. can i upgrade (install new) usb 3 hardware to replace current USB2.0?

Currently running macbook pro 2.4Ghz intel core i7 15'' Late 2011. Wanted to know if and how so (if so), 1. can i install a SSD? 2. can i upgrade (install new) usb 3 hardware to replace current USB2.0?

To installing a SSD, yes, it is possible. See this link to read more.
There are also quite a few YouTube videos on the process.
To the second, no, it's not possible to replace USB 2 with 3 without replacing the system.

Is it possible to install a 160 GB Toshiba slim-fit HDD from an iPod Classic 2009 model into a iPod 5th Gen Late-2006 model that originally had a 30 GB Toshiba drive?

Is it possible to install a 160 GB Toshiba slim-fit HDD from an iPod Classic 2009 model into a iPod 5th Gen Late-2006 model that originally had a 30 GB Toshiba drive?
I have had my 30 GB iPod video for about 7 years, it was a gift and has served me well. Unfortunately it was in my pocket when I brushed up against a very powerful magnet which latched onto the unit and scrambled the hardware. Sad iPod icon.
I was told I probably need to replace the HD in order to get it back to working order. What I am wondering is, would I be able to replace it with a larger capacity drive so long as I got a unit that was slim enough to fit into the casing?

Have you tried resetting the PRAM? http://gigaom.com/2011/07/26/when-to-reset-your-macs-pram-and-smc/
Which Windows version are you trying to install? If I remember right, you can't use windows 8 on these older machines.
Other than that it's hard to say what could have gone wrong. I can only suggest going through the steps again carefully and making sure everything worked the way it should.
Have a look at this article too for a slighly more verbose instruction on making a drive bootable: http://www.instructables.com/id/Install-Windows-7-without-USB-or-DVD-without-upg ra/
