Is there an adapter that fits the globe speakers from the iMac (PPC) to today's ports on iPods, iPhones, etc-

I have an old iMac with the clear globe speakers. The connection on these speakers does not fit todays, computers, iPods or iPhone. Does anyone know of an adapter so that I could use these speakers today?

If you don't want to go through the steps in the article (finding a suitable amplifier is the big hurdel), the only remaining option is the discontinued Griffin iFire:

This was THE solution but did not stay long on the market. Used, this little gem now costs most that an awesome set of modern external speakers:

You can certeinly look for one cheaper. If you can find one for under US$50, it at least sounds like a good finanacial investment!

Is there an adapter that allows youto use ethernet cables in hotels?

I travel for work and don't want to use wireless in countries such as Nigeria. Is there an adapter that will allow me to use the ethernet cable in my hotel room for the ipad2?

No. However, you can travel with an Airport Express. The hotel's Ethernet connects to the AEX. Then the AEX is configured to provide a local wireless network in the room. You will need the Airport Utility app for the iPad.

After identifying the exact connectors you need, check the Apple Store online and/or eBay...you should be able to buy a cable with the correct connector on each end, rather than fooling with an adapter.

In the garage I have a Netgear Router. it is connected by a ethernet cable, I have a 1tb drive that I want to use there. On the drive there is only a USB port. on the Netgear there is only ethernet ports. is there an adapter that will work for that?

It's not that simple. You need a "smart" device to connect a hard drive to, like a Time Capsule, or another computer, or an Airport Extreme/Express that was made to share a drive, or some other brand router that has a USB port for sharing a drive, etc.

Is there an adapter that lets you use iPhone earbuds with an iMac?

I have big heavy uncomfortable headphones with a mic that I use for gaming on my iMac.
I'd rather use the earbuds from my iPhone.
Is there an adapter that lets you use iPhone earbuds with an iMac?

I got the splitter, (see link below), but the mic does not seem to work. Apparently, there's a difference between a mic port and a line-in port. Mic ports are powered by the computer, line-in ports are not. They expect a powered signal to come from the input device. The iMac has a line-in port.
I downloaded an app called Line-in that is supposed to give back the ability to use unpowered mics with Macs that lost the abiliy after a system update. It did not work for me. I guess my iMac never had the ability to use unpowered mics.
So I ordered the USB Stereo Audio Adapter below. It's basically a sound card that plugs into a USB port and will work with an unpowered mic. It has not arrived yet. I'll let you know how it goes.

Is there an adapter that will charge my 3g while I'm connected with USB2.0?

My 3rd generation iPod, like many others here, no longer connects via firewire- even after trying every trick mentioned here AND switching cables, computers etc.
I realize that the 3g cannot charge via USB2.0 AND will rapidly discharge when connected to the USB2.0 port (powered of course).
My question is:
Is there a plug or adapter that will allow me to connect my iPod to my mac via USB2.0 ( thus mounting it and making it accessible with iTunes etc ) and charge/power it at the same time. Maybe, something with an extra cable that goes to a wall transformer like the palm pilots used to have.
My iPod works fine as a player it just won't connect with Firwire and won't stay charged long enough, (2-5 minutes) while connected with USB2.0. YES, the battery seems to be fine. It will play for over two hours on its own. Also, my Apple care ran out in June and I can't afford a new iPod right now.
An adapter like I described would get me over the hump until somebody figures out what happened to all the 3rd generation iPods this summer!
Thanks!

It may not be compatile with the iPad. iPads are not specifically mentioned in the compatibility specs here:
http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/pd/fuelband-se/pid-924485/pgid-924484
See the following page for more info & compatibility. I do not believe there is any type of adapter that will get you compatibility. The iPhone and iPod touch are the only devices being mentioned as compatible.

Is there a way to actaully talk to someone at apple whereby it doesn't cost money? I downloaded an app and now the stupid phone says that there is compass interference and to move away from the interference. Well, I am in the middle of a field. Now what?

Is there actually a way to talk to a service person at Apple where you don't have to shell out money? I downloaded an app that cost $9.99 and when I tried to use it I get a message that says there is compass interference and to move away from the interference or wave the phone in a figure 8 pattern. Well, now I have a sore arm from constant waving out in the middle of a field and it appears that is going to cost $29 to talk to a person. Does anyone have any idea why this is occuring? As a side note, I can use a normal compass with no issues so it is the phone. From a customer perspective, this is poor customer service.

First of all, an idle threat is one that a person has no intention of carrying out. In the past 16 months that I have had this phone I have become less and less satisfied and found that it is like much of today's technology....over rated and under performing. The one thing that I have never been accused of is not wanting, or not giving help but when a company makes itself unavailable to resolve issues and leaves it to forums run by users helping users, it speaks more about the company than anything else they could do. As I said, I do not make idle threats and I did not threaten you in any way. Guess I'll call this topic done with as it is not and was not the intent to get a war started

I Have a Ipod Classic that all my music is on. After my previous computer crashed I have not had any of my music able to be transfered to the new computer from the Ipod. Is there a way to do this

I Have a Ipod Classic that all my music is on.

Unfortunately, unless you have a backup and can restore the iTunes library to the new computer, you are stuck with the current state of the iPod. This is one of those things that makes doing backups so important.
Unless your music is all purchased from iTunes (not from your own CD's that you imported into iTunes and then downloaded to the iPod), you will be able to re-download all your iTunes store music back to the iPod when you install iTunes on the new computer. When you first attach the iPod to the new computer and new iTunes the first time it will tell you that this iPod is synced with another iTunes library and let you initialize the iPod (which will erase everything on the iPod - so don't do this unless you don't care about the stuff on the iPod now).
I've seen 3rd party apps in the past that will let you copy music/content from iPod to computer and bypass iTunes, but not sure if they still exist as this was several years ago.
good luck

I have to restore my phone from back up but in order to do it i had to update my software. now that my software is updated there isnt enough room on the phone to back up. is there a way to only restore certain things from the backup like contacts?

Because it says it's incompatible when it can't be, I got hope. I get error messages all the time with my iPod and iPhone that it cannot sync and that 'this device is not capapble of connecting to iTunes' stuff. I literally forget that happened, plug it in again and it works, I later realize that iTunes made a mistake, they do that.

I have the app "viPlay" on my iPad and iPhone. Is there any way that it could be available for the Apple TV? I'd like to access my personal videos from my hard drive using the Apple TV through the 'viPlay' app.

Is there any MBean that returns war file details of the current page/contex

Hi,
We are building some diagnostic tests which would run as MBeans, both config and runtime. These MBeans would be invoked when an incident/error occurred on a page. One of my diagnostic test is to "get the details of the war file, like war file name, file path etc..from the current web page/current context root... and then inspect for some entries in the configuration files inside that war file".
Is there any weblogic MBean that gives me the details of the war file from the current web page / current context root?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Eshwar.

There is information about the applications on the server via the ApplicationRuntimeMBean. I believe there is context root information for the app inside the ComponentRuntimeMBeans. So you could query the app runtime mbeans to find the matching the ApplicationRuntimeMBean. Then use that to find the matching AppDeploymentMBean which has the file location.
There might also be something in the servlet API - I would ask in the webapp forum.
