My iMac won't recognize that I have a VOIP headset.

How do I fix this?  I need to use this headset for an online class that starts on Monday. 

iMac model? Version fo the Mac OS?

  • My IE 10 broswer won't recognize that I have updated my Flash Player to version 11

    My IE 10 broswer doesn't recognize that I've updated to Flash Plyer version 11? It continues to tell me I don't have it  - even when I can see it is on my program files (?)

    You CAN'T see it in your program files because it ISN'T a program - it's a browser plugin, and in the case of IE 10 for Win 8, it's updated through Windows Update. Additionally you may need to re-enable it after the update.

  • IMac does not recognize that I have set language default to English

    I am not very computer savvy so please be patient with me. I have set the language to English on my computer but whenever I type anything it is telling me that every word (for instance in this post) is mispelled (so they are all underlined in red dashed lines). Why? How can I fix it? I have a little USA flag on the top right hand corner of my computer as well - not sure where that came from. Thanks!!!

    When you go to System Prefs/International/Languages, is English at the top of the list?
    but whenever I type anything it is telling me that every word (for instance in this post) is mispelled (so they are all underlined in red dashed lines). Why?
    Probably because the spell checker is set to something else. Go to Edit > Spelling and make sure the dictionary is set to English.

    That results from checking the box for Show Input Menu in Finder in System Prefs/International/Input Menu.

  • Intel iMac won't recognize external display with Dynex mini-DVI adapter

    I've got an original Intel iMac with a Mini-DVI connection on the back. I'm attempting to hook it up to an external display (a plasma screen, in fact). I picked up a Dynex Mini DVI to Video Adapter DX-AP100 for Apple. This connector has a mini-DVI connector on one end, and both a video-out and an S-video-out on the other.
    When attempting to use the adapter, the iMac does not recognize that there is an external display connected. Here are the facts:
    The external display: I've tried this with a Panasonic Plasma screen connected directly through S-video, as well as a Pioneer receiver (one that switches video) connected both through s-video and composite video. And yes, I've got the settings on the TV correct. I've also tried this with a Polaroid LCD TV connected via S-video and composite video.
    I did notice that when I click "Detect Displays" while the Plasma was connected, the plasma briefly "flashed", implying SOMETHING was happening, but still no dice.
    Anyone have any experience with this Dynex DX-AP100 that could share some wisdom?

    Yeah, I realize S-video is limiting, but I'm trying to keep things as simple as possible. The TV is mounted to the wall and there are not currently any DVI or HDMI cables coming out of it. There's an S-video input from my receiver that I'd prefer to use since it's readily accessible already. In the end my goal is to use Netflix "Watch Now" on the TV, so I'm not too worried about video quality.
    and before someone asks if I considered that the receiver's S-video input might be the problem...I tried taking the s-video wire from the stereo and plugging it directly into the adapter. No dice.
    ONE ADDITIONAL PIECE of information...while trying to get this to work on an LCD monitor, I plugged the composite video connection from the TV into the adapter. Suddenly the Mac recognized an additional monitor, but it saw it as a VGA monitor, not as s-video or composite video, and no signal went to the TV.
    I'm considering trading in this adapter for a mini-DVI to VGA adapter, but that really won't help me with the connection to the TV.

  • IMac won't recognize midi device

    IMac won't recognize midi device (Roland Fantom) which is connected via USB only; no midi interface. I have rebooted both the Roland and the iMac, still no go. I have manually added the midi device under Audio Midi setup, still none of my apps will recognize the device; Logic Pro, ProTools and Sibelius. How do I get this configured? I've read through some other posts and nothing has worked.

    Its standard for all computers - if you have 3rd party things that do not work - contact that company - they may have a driver for you to download specific for mac.
    Some 3rd party things are windows only - probably same for Mac.

  • I'm trying to burn photos onto a CD from Finder, but my iMac won't recognize either a CD-R or a DVD-R.

    I'm trying to burn photos onto a CD from Finder, but my iMac won't recognize either a CD-R or a DVD-R.  Any clues?  Nothing shows up in Finder as far as a Device, and I have a message telling me to "Insert a blank disc to begin" and that I will need a disc with at least "47.6 MB"--it's only 18 photos, and I need to burn them for a parent of a student (I'm a teacher).  I have tried several different discs, so it's not the actual CD or DVD.

    Create a new folder. Place the photos in that.
    From the Finder File menu choose New Burn Folder. That will appear on your desktop. Place the folder of photos  you created into that.
    Now open Disk Utility and you will see that Burn Folder listed. Choose Burn from the menu.

  • IMac won't recognize DVD/CD drive anymore

    As the title suggests, my iMac won't recognize my dvd drive anymore.
    I don't know what the reason is for it.
    I've never had this problem before, it happened a couple weeks ago.
    I first noticed this when I tried burning a CD in iTunes.
    It said at the top of the screen "Disc burner or software not found..."
    I then went to System Profiler and checked "Disc Burning" and it
    read, "No burning device was found. If you are using an external device please make sure that it is connected and powered properly." I'm not using an external device. I'm using the DVD drive that originally came with my iMac.
    If anyone could please help me out with this I'd be very grateful.

    Lately, I left my iMac on while I was sleeping. Couple nights ago, the optical drive made a funny noise and woke me up. It sounds very similar to opening up Disk Utility on my MacBook Pro, it looked for the internal optical drive. First, I didn't do further investigation on my iMac.
    Yesterday, I happened to do some 'housecleaning' and attempted to slide in a data CD. The drive didn't response, so the CD was stuck. In the past, I had opened up numerous iMacs and they were getting more complicated model by model. I am certified to perform the repair, but since this iMac is covered under AppleCare, I decided to make an appointment with the MacGenius.
    I did perform a PRAM reset earlier.
    Do you have 'put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible' checked under Energy Saver?
    Out of all the Macs with slot-load optical drives built-in I have owned, this is the first malfunctioning I have ever had.

    Hey I've been all over and can't get any help. I'm well aware its not an Apple product but its an app for Mac OS so I thought I'd try here. I bought 2 new iMacs yesterday for my parents (5K) and I'm just trying to get them some help as there in their 70's and AOL is all they know.
    But hey thanks for your help,

  • How do I get iTunes to recognize that I have already downloaded a song?

    I have a song I have purchased and downloaded.  When looking at the "Songs" view the song is listed twice.  One with a cload download button next to it even though I already have it downloaded.  I deleted the existing file and it was still listed twice, this time with a cload button next to both listings.  How do I get iTunes to recognize that I have purchased it only once?

    I've tried all of that and iTunes still won't sync my phone. I've deauthroized my computer than reauthorized it. I've deauthorized all computers then reauthorized my computer and every time I go to sync, iTunes keeps telling me my computer isn't authorized.

  • My computer won't recognize that my phone is plugged in, so i can't transfer photos, but it shows connected to itunes.

    my computer won't recognize that my phone is plugged in, so i can't transfer photos, but it shows connected to itunes.

    You have to sync your photos from iTunes , if you cannot see iphone in itunes it might be due to itunes being corrupted or the apple driver issue.
    To fix this, try the following:
    1.Uninstall iTunes completely , and Re-install the latest version of iTunes, download it from apple website
    2. Check whether its a hardware related issue , by using the phone with a different firewire
    3. if it does show up in iTunes , and still facing the issue then try restoring the iphone [setting it up as a new phone , DO NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP] and then try re-syncing 
    4. I dont think the format of the photos matter , but still try syncing different format photos [generally JPEG formats are used]

  • My iMac won't start. I have to press T and mount it to an old G4.

    My iMac won't start. I have to press T and mount it to an old G4 then eject then boot but slow and lots of beech balls. First aid says it has a 'Invalid key length' in 1 volume and can't be repaired. Will an upgrade to Mountain lion from Snow Leopard help or Disk Warrior as my files won't install.

    Thanks PATRICKMELE for your response, however I'm not sure if my Time Machine backup is trustworthy. I had a problem with that about 2 weeks ago and I took to an Apple Genius who ended up wiping my Time Machine backups. The new backup took 9 days and now looking at Time Machine Preferences it shows 1.59 GB of 3TB available; Oldest backup: None; Latest backup: None?
    I'm taking your advice and calling Apple Support as soon as possible. Thanks for your help

  • Adobe won't recognize that I uninstalled CS on old computer, won't let me activate on new computer

    Adobe won't recognize that I uninstalled CS on my old computer, won't let me activate it on new computer.

    Yes, uninstalling is not the same as deactivating. Call support to reset activations.

  • I've got movies on my computer on itunes, however my parents wish that i use my laptop for itunes stuff, and i cant figure out how to get those movies to be able to sync with my ipod again, it wont recognize that I have them. Suggestions?

    While you're in itunes, with the leftside window open, click on Apps. Then, look across the top middle of your itunes screen. You will see several choices: All, Iphone/iPad Touch, Ipad, Ipod Games, List, and Updates. 
    Clicking on each of these gives you a different view. 
    When you select ALL you will see all of your apps. When you select Updates you sill see only the apps that need to be updated. When you are in Updates you will see the Update button in the lower right corner.
    Hope this helps.

    Log into the app store using the Apple ID you used to set your computer up. Look under purchases. If it is not there you may need to accept it or to unhide it
