Old Apple speakers (M2497) not working with 27" iMac

I have a much loved pair of old apple speakers, model M2497.
They worked fine with my older intel G5 tower, but won't do anything with my new 27" iMac. System prefs show the sound output device as being headphones (although the machine's built-in speakers aren't muted).
Any suggestions?

MY Apple TV does not work with my iMac, errr

I have an Imac OSX 10.8.2. I want to use my Apple TV to stream what I watch on my computer, yet when I go to the Display option in my Preferences menu, it seems to me that I have the option to select to turn the mirror option on - and to display the mirror icon on the menu bar, but I do not see it there.
Does my IMAC support the Apple TV?
When I go to my IMAC specs, in the Display section it shows that the mirror: is... off. Can I manually turn it on somewhere els? errr! (frustated).
P.S. When I do use the Apple TV to select other options like... movies or podcast as I arrow left or right it plays an Itunes song and raises or lower the volume as I press. Not enough info in the instuctions to pacify my angst. Please help. Thanx:)

Genuine Apple lightning charger not working with my iPhone 5S. a notification comes up that's says 'this cable is not a genuine Apple product and may not work reliably' and although the charging symbol comes up, it does not charge

genuine Apple lightning charger not working with my iPhone 5S. a notification comes up that's says 'this cable is not a genuine Apple product and may not work reliably' and although the charging symbol comes up, it does not charge - went to Apple in Milton keynes to get a replacement charger this weekend that does not work as well!

Well, if this problems is so old I think it is strange that Apple hasen't fixed the bug long time ago, and certainly after the release of iOS 8.1.
Well, thank you very much for your answer, Lawrence Finch. I think the best thing to do is to send the phone to repair, if there is no solution to fix this by my self. I will anyway call the Apple support tomorrow, but I don't think they will illuminate me...

APPLE TV DOES NOT WORK WITH NETFLIX

APPLE TV DOES NOT WORK WITH NETFLIX, just a black screen and "Netflix is loading" message appears. I can´t even see Netflix´s home page or set up my account. Netflix is working fine on all other devices at home, but in Apple TV.
I have tried the 8.8.8.8 DNS trick, the turn off procedure, the manual IP setting, but nothing....black screen still appears

It started working.....!!!!! (It seems someone back there is listening)
I "forced" an upgrade, I mean it showed "AppleTV is updated", nevertheless I re-started the system using the "return to original configurations" option. Then it updated again by itself to a newer version....and started working perfectly.
I have paired my apple wireless keyboard and it works fine, this way is easier to set up passwords or so (you can also do it with your remote).
TIPS:
I didn´t change any language or video quality configuration (scared to do so)
I changed to ethernet (cable) instead of wireless
My internet plan is 6 Megabytes (it was the same while it wasn't working)
good luck!!

My apple ID is not working with my apple store

My apple ID is not working with my apple store

I have the exact same problem as "Jan Olsen 1"
I sent them feedback:
"I was given a $25 iTunes gift card.
When trying to log on to my account, my password didn't work (though I entered the correct password THREE TIMES).
I requested help changing the password through an e-mail. Went through the process, changed the password.
I successfully logged on to my account and entered the gift card information and was given a $25 credit.
When I tried to buy mp3s, I was asked to enter my password - AGAIN.
I got one of the following messages each time I tried to enter my NEW password:
'We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (5002).
There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later.'
or
'Verification is required.
You must enter your AppleID and password, click Billing Info, and verify your payment information in order to make purchases.
The Apple ID you entered couldn't be found or your password was incorrect. Please try again.'
Don't know where to go from here."
And then, just to log on to this forum, I had to enter my AppleID TWICE! Once, then again to verify my AppleID!
Ridiculous! Frustrating!

So my phone a 4s is less than two years old, the speakers do not work, and it will not connect to wi-fi, so my question is on the 1st of august why should I re-up my contract and purchase a phone that taken care of did not last the distance of a contract?

Why docking cradle with headset jack for apple iphone 5s not working with iPhone 5s headset

why docking cradle with headset jack for apple iphone 5s not working with iPhone 5s headset.

don't know. what have you done to troubleshoot?

My old Apple ID does not work, so I have a new one, but the problem is, my iCloud is backed up on my old Apple ID, and I tried to delete the account, but then it said that everything would be deleted on my iPad. How do you add another iCloud email?

My old Apple ID doesn't work, so I created a new one. However, my iPad(3) is backed-up on my old apple ID. I tried deleting it(for iCloud) but it said it would erase everything. Help?

If you want to use a new ID, you'll have to create a new iCloud account using the new ID, then migrate your existing icloud data to the new account. Start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll). Next, if you are syncing notes with iCloud, open them one at a time and email them to yourself so you can recreate them in the new account. Finally, if you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, turn off iCloud syncing in your iWork app settings.
Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Keep on My iPad when prompted. Then sign in with your new ID to create the new account, turn your iCloud data syncing back on and choose Merge to upload the data to the new account.
When you turn Mail to On you will create a new @icloud.com email account. You can go to icloud.com sign into your old account and set up email forwarding from your old iCloud email address to your new one if you wish

Apple 23 Cinema not working with nvidia 5200...help!!!

Hey all!
I have an Apple 23" Cinema that is not working with my Windows XP machine using an NVIDIA 5200 128meg graphics card. The montior, when booting Windows, just flashes its power light 3 times...goes off...then repeats the sequence.
So, I tried a Dell 2007WFP with the XP machine using the DVI port of the card. When booting, it seems like it's going to fire up the monitor (shows splash screen and Windows logo) but then goes blank when it hits the desktop.
Oddly enough, when I plug in my Apple 30" into the DVI port of the NVIDIA card, it works just great. No fuss or muss (other than a resolution change).
The 23" also works fine with my MacPro BTW so I know the monitor is golden.
Any takers on this one?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Talon, I just accidentally came across your thread. Maybe I can help. I own a 23-inch cinema HD display but mine is ADC and I have to run mine through an ADC to DVI adapter.
Anyways on to the discussion...
The nvidia 5200 is a rather old-ish card (or chipset). The feature set in these older cards are not necessarily symmetrically reciprocal (what?) throughout the feature set. In other words, the feature may work in one mode and not in the another mode...etc...
You may have seen these specs on your 5200 card/chipset:
+Dual RAMDACs (up to 400 MHz) for display resolutions up to and including 2048×1536 @ 85Hz+
and thought this would be great, my resolution is less than that @ 1920x1200 on my 23-inch cinema display. However I believe this may be referring only to the vga output signal and not the DVI. Read on...
Further down in the specs for the 5200 card/chipset you'll see:
+DVI support for compatibility with nextgeneration flat panel displays with resolutions up to and including 1600×1200+
Unfortunately, this is not enough resolution to power your 23-inch display at 1920x1200. Windows may even show the resolution 1920x1200 as available (if you're able to get to the screen) but what I think it's not telling you, it that in order for you to be able to use that resolution you'll need to switch to dual mode DVI, and the card does this automatically.
For example: 640x800 to 1600x1200 uses single mode DVI and anything above that (like our 23-inch cinema HD monitors @ 1920x1200) +using this particular card/chipset+ will be using dual mode DVI whether the monitor can support that mode or not. From my experience with my HD cinema it uses single mode DVI.
As someone said above your 23-inch is in *single mode DVI* and from my experience only accepts *single mode DVI input* from the graphics card.
From my understanding of the specs and your description of the delimma, I would suppose that you are able to get the 30 inch display to work because the 30 inch is a *dual mode DVI monitor* and your graphics card does work in dual DVI mode up to your 30-inch resolution but ONLY in dual DVI mode.
Here are the specs on it:
http://www.nvidia.com/page/pg_20040109440047.html
I hope this helps you out.
If you were to ask my recommendation, I'd go buy a new video card that has higher resolution on the single mode DVI output. I can tell you that my ATI 2600 HD Pro (AGP) (windows version, not mac only) has two DVI ports that are both dual mode DVI capable but also dumb down to single mode DVI signaling at high enough resolution to support our 23-inch cinema HD single mode DVI displays.
Good luck!

Apple Tv does not work with youtube and movies on iphone or ipad

I am on my 2nd generation apple TV. Always worked with Youtube, my iphones and ipads and Netflix.
I think it started about a month ago. I can only use Netflix.
If I try YouTube and select a video (even if small) it just keep spinning and never starts.
The same thing happens with my video from iphone 5S, 5, and ipad 2.
Than I went to my sons house with a Apple TV 3rd generation and different wifi,
same thing happens, I can not show a video from my iPhone 5S.
What is going on, did Apple TV change something?
Is this a update that went wrong?
(I have auto update and also checked manually to make sure have latest apple TV FW)
(All iphone and ipads are latest FW).

Hi pcorsaro,
You may need to restore your Apple TV and see if the issue is resolved after that process:
