New Keyboard Not Compatible With All USB Flash Drives

Hi,
I've noticed that the new super-thin iMac keyboards are not compatible with all USB Flash Drives. Here's an example.
I have 2 USB Flash Drives. One is a ByteStor 2GB USB 2.0 High Speed Dataferry Flash Drive, the other is a Kingston DataTraveler 1GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive. Neither of these drives used to work with the previous design of iMac keyboard, giving me the "low power" warning.
However, the ByteStor works just fine with the new super-thin iMac keyboard, but oddly enough, the Kingston DataTraveler doesn't. Does anyone know why this is? What's the difference? When buying a new USB Flash Drive, how do you know if it's compatible with the new iMac keyboard or not?

Thanks. Yeah the Kingston DataTraveler works just fine if I plug it into one of the USB 2.0 ports on the back of the iMac. But if I plug it into the new thin Apple Keyboard, it gives the low power warning.

Anyway, I'll try that new keyboard software update and report back.

  • IOS4.2 is not compatible with all ipad models?!

    Hi everyone,
    I've read the whole http://www.apple.com/ipad/software-update/ page and I saw the line "Not compatible with all models." at the very bottom.
    I'm really worried if I buy an ipad of 16GB wifi model this december, will I get iOS4.2 working on my ipad?
    Thanks!

    I did miss his question I think. For iOS4.1 Apple says:
    Compatibility
    The iOS 4 Software Update works with the second-, third-, and fourth-generation iPod touch. Not all features are compatible with all devices.4
    Thus, I would expect iOS4.2 to a least NOT applicable to the first generation .
    Regarding the question, the superscript is by the iPad not the Ipad. iOS 4.2 will be applicable to all iPads.

  • I am having an issue with a USB flash drive.

    Hello, I am having an issue with a USB flash drive. I have a 2012 iMac OS X 10.9. Drive keeps on disconnecting after about 30 seconds. I tried to reformat through Disk Utility but doesn't allow me to verify or repair as it disconnects. This same drive works fine on Windows machines. I tried all USB ports but all give the same issue. Message is: "Disk Not Ejected Properly. Eject "No Name" before disconnecting or turning off." When I attempt to copy data from the disk it comes up with the message: "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "" can't be read or written (Error code -36)". I believe the solution for this error is to format the drive but as mentioned this function doesn't work. I need to copy data from a Windows machine to my iMac. Any suggestions with this is appreciated. Thanks!

    I went back to a Windows machine, formatted it to NTFS (so lost the data but had a backup), recopied the data. Went back to the Mac but same issue happened after I tried copying the data "Disk Not Ejected Properly - Eject " " before disconnecting or turning off." One of the USB ports didn't detect the 32GB flash drive at all. And disconnected on another one.

  • Is Flash CC not compatible with Wacom Feel It Driver?

    Is Flash from the Creative Cloud not compatible with the Wacom Feel It Driver?
    Whenever I try to use the pencil or brush tools with my digitizer pen, a line instantly forms towards the lower right. 
    I am using a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga (64 bit) with the digitizer pen that came with it.  I am running Windows 8.1.
    The default Lenovo digitizer drive does not include pen pressure sensitivity.  However, the digitizer is Wacom based, and the "Feel It" driver, which Lenovo recommends, tracks the pen pressure.  On most programs I run, the digitizer works fine.
    However When I run Flash from the Creative Cloud, which I just downloaded, I have the problem mentioned above.
    Below is a screenshot illustrating my problem.  The straight black lines were all created simply by tapping my digitizer to the screen, with the brush tool or pencil tool selected.  If I held the digitizer on the screen, I could continue the line in any direction and vary the thickness with the brush tool.
    The blue lines were all created with a mouse.  As you can see they do not have problems.  The green lines and shapes were made by using my digitizer and a shape tool or line tool.  The digitizer works perfectly for the pen, shape, line, bucket, select, etc.
    I have uninstalled the Wacom driver, and the problem has gone away.  However, without the Wacom Driver, I cannot alter the line thickness with pressure.
    Is the Wacom Feel It Driver compatible with Flash CC?  I would think that it is, because I hear of people using it, but it does not seem to work for me.
    Thank you in advance. I'm sorry if this question has already been answered, I was unable to find a solution by searching.

    Hi,
    The issue is resolved in the latest update of Flash Pro.Please update Flash professional to 14.1.0.96 .Follow the instruction below for the same :
    Installation instructions
    Log out and log in to the CC desktop application. Update the application when prompted.
    You should see the list of new updates as soon as the new CC desktop application is launched.
    Install Flash Professional CC and Mobile Device Packaging app. On a high speed connection, it took me around 8 minutes.
    After the application is installed, you can launch the application directly from the desktop app by clicking on it.
    Also,make sure the wacom drivers are latest and you are using the tablet in PEN mode and not Mouse mode.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sangeeta

  • New update not compatible with my computer processor (PPC)

    I have a Mac G4 PPC 1.5GHZ with 1.25G Ram and Mac os 10.5.8
    Used to have FireFox installed on my computer until I made the mistake to try to update the program using it's built in software update feature.
    All went well until I tried to run Firefox after the install was complete. Up comes the message that the software is not compatible
    with my computers architecture.
    Now the install has erased my original Firefox and i cant seem to find a version anywhere that will work on a PPC.
    Can you assist?

    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

  • My compaq cq62-214nr will not boot from a usb flash drive

    I have a Compaq CQ62-214 NR Notebook. When I enter the bios boot options screen with F9 there is a blank space where Boot from USB/Flash Drive should be. If I enter the bios setup and move usb flash drive up to the first option above Notebook hardrive and Internal CD/DVD Rom ,save the changes to the BIOS then Reboot. Enter the boot options screen again the blank line moves up to the first choice slot but still is blank. If I press enter over that black option the computer does not boot from the OS I have install on the usb flash drive it just starts its normal windows boot screen. YES I have upgraded the BIOS to the lates version F.37
    Can somone tell me what is wrong.

    Try booting into the one time boot menu.
    Step 1: As soon as you turn on the computer on the hp invent screen keep tapping F9 key.
    Step 2: you will get boot otions such as hard drive, optical drive, USb drive
    Step 3: You can hit enter on the usb flash drive. Should boot from the os on your flash drive

  • New printer not compatible with my older mac

    I had a Photosmart 6510 that stopped working (black ink won't print and message that print heads won't align). Couldn't seem to fix it and gave in to just purchasing a new printer. Got home from the store with my new Photosmart 6520 and was expecting to finally print the backlog of paperwork that's been building up. I couldn't find the correct driver. There are many Photosmart printers but not for the 6500 series. I figured I would then be able to download it from the provided disc but upon loading the disc I find out that my older imac is not compatible. I have OS 10.5.8. How can I get the driver so that this printer works? I didn't want to upgrade my system because I will lose the use of much of my software.

    Return the 6520 and get yourself a Officejet 8600 which has the OS 10.5 driver you need.

  • USB ports not recognizing my Memory/USB/Flash drives

    My macbook, 2 GHz Intel Core 2 duo (if that even helps), with Leopeord 10.5.5 's USB ports stopped working, but the weird thing is, when I plug in my iPod or mouse, they work. But when I plug in my Flash drive to try to open up some homework or SD card drive, anything that contains memory, it doesn't work, the computer shows that it has been plugged into my macbook through System Profiler, it also shows when it's gone, but the drive doesn't show up on my desktop and I can't find it anywhere. I know the flash drives are working because I tested them on different computers, safely removed them as well. Some people on a different forum suggested PRAM and SMC reset, I've done PRAM, but I don't see how it helps. please help! I need to be able to finish hmwk!!

  • Is the newer Firefox version compatible with all Mac? My last download said it was not.

    I have MAC OS X 10.4.11

    Well, I think the Intel Mac requirement needs to be more prominently displayed. The download bar merely says it's a download for Mac OS X with a sub-note All Systems and Languages. My 10.1.11 rejected it. Poor execution by Mozilla, I think.
