Is the iMac intel duo plug and play?

I am getting a iMac intel duo for christmas and this will be my first mac. Does it recognise new hardware like a usb memory stick or do you have to manually detect it?

I don't think that I would trust that idea. It would be safer and save you a world of hurt from finding out the hard way to eject anything that appears with an icon on the Mac desktop, especially if that icon is accompanied with the eject arrow icon in the left-side panel of a Finder window. There are plenty of folks who have screwed up Firewire/USB devices by just at will disconnecting them. USB key drives, in my experience, are pretty much nonrecoverable if you fry them.

  • My Windows 7 can't find the drivers for a plug and play wireless mouse and keyboard

    I tried it on Mac and a windows desktop it worked instantly. Please help me, what should i do?
    OS X 10.8.4

    The manufacturer is unknown because it is not a branded product, what confuses me is that my mac works with it. I plugged it to a desktop windows and it worked also. I looked for the driver it was using and found it in the windows system 32 folder. I then look if my windows on laptop have the same file/driver and yes it has. But still the problem is it cannot find the driver.

  • My classics IPOD has died over the weekend and I plan to but an IPOD Touch -- but need to to 'work' and simply sync all my 'old' music on a plug and play basis -- or is that wishful thinking ? I need it urgently for a holiday so only time to buy it n run

    Any advice on :
    1. The Touch as a product
    2. The likely chances of plug and play resync to new device without hours of 'fiddling' / support calls
    or I can just use my Shuffle I guess ----

    There should be no problems, make sure to have all the needed software updates for Windows and the new iTunes 10.5 installed before connecting your iPod touch.
    You already know how the basic sync process is working, there are a few more features added like mail for example: iOS: Syncing with iTunes

  • Is there a virtual pc or Windows emulator for iMac intel duo?

    Hi there,
    I just got a new iMac intel duo last week and its fantastic. Unfornatuly I need to run a stock market program that only runs on windows...
    This is the only program that i need to run on the windows platform.
    I was told to get the intel duo as it was the way things were going and that I may have to wait for the software side of things to catch up.
    I currently have a workaround that is painfull, but I would like to have it all on the one machine...
    Is there a virtual pc version for the iMac intel duo or are there other emulators I could use??
    Desparate..
    iMac intel, 2G memory   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Thanks for the advice... does anyone else know of another product? I heard that the responce time for it wasn't good?
    Whats happening with Virtual PC?? is a new version comming out??

  • I have given up on my dell and bought an iMac 27"... Now how do I transfer my dell iTunes playlists from my dell to my iMac, as they are showing on the iMac when I plug in my iPod but it's not allowing to me to play them as they are shaded?

    I have given up on my dell and bought an iMac 27"... Now how do I transfer my dell iTunes playlists from my dell to my iMac, as they are showing on the iMac when I plug in my iPod but it's not allowing to me to play them as they are shaded? I have also separately transferred all my music via my external drive from my dell to my iMac which is showing in iTunes but won't upload to my iPod... Just to confuse you even more my AppleTV which is linked to my log in email address and home sharing is showing and playing all the playlists I want to see on my iMac... Phew that was exhausting hope you understand and can help me:-)

    You may have transferred all your songs, but your iPad is seeing the library as a different entity.

  • How do I set MacBook to an external display when the plug and play doesn't recognize it?  I am trying to set my Samsung 530 LCD as a monitor but HDMI and VGA cords (and the adaptor for them) doesn't seem to work.

    I have tried everything I can find on line but they all claim that the plug and play works, and they don't for me.  I tried the mini dvi to HDMI and a HDMI cord and that was not recognized no matter which unit I rebooted first.  I found someone who said that my Macbook might be too old for the HDMI technology so I returned the cords and went to the VGA cord and adaptor.
    I tried this first with the HDMI setup:

    I contacted Samsung support and they said I needed to set the display settings to external display on the mac.  I went to the display settings and moved the icon to my status bar.  When I click on search for displays or whatever it says (I'm not at my Mac right now) it does nothing.
    What am I missing?

    I am using MAC OSx 10.5.8 (9L31a) as my operation system.  The TV says "No signal.  Check connected device's power, cable connection and source selection."  Seems to me that that goes in hand with what the Samsung tech said about the Mac needing to be forces to use the external display.  But how do I do that?

  • How can I configure and control a non-plug and play VXI card using the NI-controller (NI-VXI/NI-VISA software)?

    Defining the slot, logical address and sending data across the card bus are the main operations I would like to perform. The non plug&play card is a VXI send & receive slave card. Low-level programming is probably required. Has anyone tried this before? If so I would be so grateful if you could share your experiences or refer me to someone who has.
    Thank you for your time and help,
    Nandeesh

    VXI cards are, by specification, plug and play, so I'm not exactly sure what you mean by a "non plug&play card." I'm guessing that the card is effectively a VME card. In this case, you can just add the VME device in the proper configuration utility. Here is a link to a document on our website about configuring VME cards (http://ni.com/support/vxi/vmeinfo.pdf).
    You should easily be able set the slot, pseudo Logical Address and memory space. Once configured, you should be able to write to registers using NI-VISA commands (viIn, viOut, and viMove). These high level commands are included in the highreg.c example which shipped with your NI-VISA software (installed in vxipnp directory).
    I hope this helps.

    Hello ..do you have a history on the phone? did you get it wet? was it dropped? have you been using an authentic ORIGINAL apple charging cable?
    this problem occurs when there is a short circuit  in the phone... you  most likely got  it wet at some point and maybe didnt even realize it? The moisture in the phone hasb probablly  oxidized one or several capacitors, integrated chips thereby short circuiting the phone. that is why he phone  is acting erratic because these short circuits inadvertently "activates" other circuits.. eventually the phone will not turn on anymore- the heat will stress the citcuit board and you will have discontinuity along your main power lines and the phone will cease to function..i see this alllll the time in our shop
    the fact you upgraded to ios6 will even work the phone harder because its a more powerful operating system taking full advantage of the A4 chip..

  • I have just installed a new hard drive in my imac intel 20" (2006) and now the hard drive does not show up in the 'select destinations' folder of the install program.

    I have just installed a new hard drive in my imac intel 20" (2006) and upgraded the memory and now the hard drive does not show up in the 'select destinations' folder of the install program. I can see the hard drive in the disk utilities window however it wont let me do anything.
    It is a seagate 1TB SATA II drive however it is displaying it as a 7.3 TB.
    If anyone has any suggestions I would be happy to hear them.
    I have tried to erase and partition and get the same error message each time, 'Input/Output error'.
    I have tried starting the thing with the install disk which is Mac OS X (Tiger?) which came with the computer. No good.
    Anyone?

    Thats correct. I can see it in the list however when I attempt to erase it or partition it it's like it's not being found or recognised and it throws up the input/output error message. I am pretty sure that the sensor it attached correctly and it is a SATA drive. I can see all the infor regarding the drive when disk utility is open and it all looks good but I cant access it or do anything with it. It's taunting me!
    The install disk is in the drive and the install program runs right up to the point where you have to select the location for the install and there is just nothing in the box where you have to select the hard drive icon.
    I have my suspiscions about the drive but any help would be appreciated.

    You need a "Core 2 Duo" for lion, and I'm guessing you only have a "Core Duo"  My wife's macbook is also a "Core Duo" and has Snow Leapord, but cannot install Lion.....

  • What ever happened to plug and play, or simple english to explain the tech stuff.

    What ever happened to plug and play, or simple english to explain the tech stuff.

    plug and play. well that is a windows term.. Apple decided they didn't need uPnP on the Time Capsule because that is just so windows.. so they use there own system.. called NAT-PMP.. (port mapping protocol). Just to make sure that things like playstation, xbox, etc could not open ports properly. And windows machines of course should be excluded from playing.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAT_Port_Mapping_Protocol
    "simple english".. unfortunately networking requires the use of a fair number of terms people are just unfamiliar with.
    The big lie was computers and networking are easy. Computers in isolation might be fine.. but as soon as you link things in networks.. it gets much harder.. and people who do study for a couple of years just to diploma level in networking haven't done it because they are dumb and could have read the simple english manual overnight. But because it is complex.
    I try and explain it this way.. if your washing machine goes bung, do you start pulling it to pieces and trying to find the fault.. or do you call the washing machine repairman.. who has trained to fix washing machines.
    If your computer or networking goes bad.. then "who are you going to call?" The manufacturer and complain about how hard it is to setup a $100 piece of equipment and expect them to give two hours of hand holding for free on the phone. People would never call a computer support technician.. no this is easy.. it is in simple english somewhere.. and you only need to spend an hour and all will be fine. Even though you have as much training in networking as in washing machine repairs. Would you call the washing machine manufacturer and expect 2 hours of free phone support for you to strip down their washing machine.. after all it cost 6x times what the router cost?? Or has some strange lie grabbed hold of you that this is simple. 

  • Help file for the Plug and Play driver of Agilent Technologies E5071C

    I just download the Plug and Play driver of Agilent Technologies E5071C from the below link:
    http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.model_page?p_model_id=5692
    I find that there is only some examples and not any help file with detail description for each input of those VIs. Although there is brief description for each VI when I press "Ctrl+H" on the VI,I still can't figure out how to use this driver. :-(
    Is there any help files with more detail description?
    Or any related examples for my reference? I hope to measure the S11 and S21 of the SMA cables

    The driver implements the commands defined by agilent.
    So look in the agilent programmers manual to find the meaning and how to handle the instrument.
