Magic Jack: Does anyone have any idea if this will work on OS X 10.4.10?

Hi, I got a magic jack internet phone thingie but I have not been able to get it to work with my iMac. The OS keeps giving me this message "does not recognize this device."
I removed Skype in an effort to get it to work, but still no dice. Has anyone had success with Magic Jack and their iMac (on OS X 10.4.10)?
p.s. the support at Magic Jack is useless- I already tried that avenue...
THANKS!

I went to the Squidoo site but it says that that lense is now locked...
By the way, my Imac had two "core panics" using Magic Jack.... but.... I have not yet downloaded the software using a windows machine... if I ask a friend to use their computer to do this I am worried it might cause a problem on their machine.
The Magic Jack worked on my computer until just short of 1 month. But then I tried to make international calls (they drop off when then person picks up at the other end!) and then suddenly my mac gave me the "grey curtain and 4 languange message you need to reboot your computer"
Has anyone made international calls successfully with the Imac version?
Also they say no blue tooth available yet for Macs. Any idea when that will be available?
I called tech assistance and they talked me through it and i reinstalled my system.... tried it again and once more lock up.... so I am nervous about it .... would like to download the mac upgrade using a windows system but nervous about that too.
Can you help? Also I have the 10.5.4 and don't want it to crash if there is something incompatible there.
Thanks for your help!

    Did something happen to it like sliding off a table or something similar? You might want to consider making an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar and have them look at it.

    Hi, cannot drag to trash, get a message saying the item cant be moved to trash because it cant be deleted.  I really dont know what theses are.  The icon shows as excel but they are certainly not filenames I have used.  I cant open them either and they dont show in finder under desktop but they are clearly sitting there!

  • When getting email from google mail, I am  missing many emails which I can see on my desk top. I get the last 7 days of emails, then I miss two months of emails, then I get month 4-6. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening.

    When I try to view my google email on my iphoine 4s i get the most recent emails and the very old emails, but the ones inbetween are missing. Is there a fix.

    yes all emails are in the web based gmail. I have not deleted the account. I forgot to mention that it has been working on my iphone for over 2 years quite well and while I was giving access to the same gmail account to my wifes new iphone when this happend. It changed both the emails on my existing phone and my wifes new phone.

  • Does anyone have any idea when Apple will have one Global App store. In South Africa the apps available on the App Store are pathetic, eg. Angry Birds is not available to Iphone/ipad users here, however android users can purchase this app no problem.

    If this continues, with the competition in the smart phone/android market, South Africans will start to can Apple devices due to the pathetic App Store for South Africa. The most popular games and Apps are not available here and until Apple get smart and make a Global Store for purchases not matter where you are in the world, Apple will continue to loose support. I have everything Apple, but am tired of the run around to try and buy good Apps.

    If you will allow me to say so ... Calm down. 
    It really isn't the fault of Apple.  The developers of apps, the writers of music and of books all have copyright or exclusivity deals through agents in order to market their creations.
    These arrangements are usually conducted on an individual national basis and as a result what would be allowed in one country is not allowed in another if that is what the agent wants.
    Apple has to negotiate through this mire to get the best deal it can yet always accepting that many other interested parties want similar privileges.
    So you can see, like politics, world wide agreements are just not possible.

  • My MacBook Pro is running very slow.  I've run repair permissions without positive result.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    My MacBook Pro (2010) is runnign very slow.  This came on all of a sudden.  It opens, closes, reboots, etc., all much slower than ever before.  I have used the repair disk permissions without any positive result.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    Take these steps when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
    Step 2
    You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting.

  • I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button but can't. Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

    I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. It is the 2014 release of adobe illustrator. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button.
    I start a new document. Then I place my scanned pencil/colored pencil drawing, in to the document. I have tried scanning and then placing it as a jpeg, bitmap, and tiff file. I have tried scanning and then placing it, in color and in black and white. The scan mode I use is flatbed. Adobe illustrator allows me to select the default button and one of eleven preset buttons (e.g high fidelity photo), but it does not allow me to click the custom trace button. The custom trace button is grey while all the other buttons are white.
    Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

    It seems pointless to adjust it afterwards because it is then only a couple a pencil lines rather then a full drawing. And how do I adjust it afterwards? Would I do this using the different buttons under the window button?

  • I am having trouble using reverb of any kind; it does not sound natural, but rather "pixilated." Does anyone have any ideas for a solution? I have used Silververb and Space Designer and am having the same problem...

    I am using Logic Pro 9 with two MXL 990 microphones in my piano and a Rode NT1A for vocals. I have tried recording with added reverb and keeping getting not a natural reverb sound, but a rather "pixilated" one that does not sound natural. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this issue? I have tried using Silververb and Space Designer, and both result in the same problems. Thank you!

    This is asking for the impossible! It does not sound natural because maybe it isn't and in judging so whats your reference anyway. If you are in dire need of some natural sounding room you can go and record it yourself. But even then, the chances that it sounds like you imagined it, are very slim.
    There are very decent sounding reverberation plugins, based on artificial reverb generators or convolution-style, the last one is said to sound more 'natural' then the first one. Be it as it maybe, it really is like cooking food. You got all the ingredients for this delicious taste at hand and believe it or not to reach a satisfying result this is not enough, because if you do not mix the ingredients in the right proportion you will end up with a different dish you thought you'll get. This is exactly the same when one would mix audio, I dare say.
    So treat yourself to some good ingredients and the rest is up to you, namely: taste and experience!
    And looking at some of my past music productions I always find the same plugins for the 'ambient' task:
    Altiverb by Audio Ease when I have acoustic ensembles (classical music mostly), the Sony Oxford Reverb in studio productions, Bricasti when I have to deal with drums and MMultiBandReverb from MeldaProduction for all-round stuff. Thats the base I start from, after that I can end up with dozen Reverb plugins which basically all are doing the same thing but just in a tiny different way.
