Phonic Firefly 302 USB on iMac and iPad

I use a Phonic Firefly 302 USB interchange on my iMac to record with.  I use GarageBand to record to. I've downloaded the driver, and it works perfectly well.
The Phonic Firefly 302 USB is unfortunately not supported on my iPad Air 2.  Can someone help with a possible solution?

Thank you for this general advice, but unfortunately your advice does not solve this problem. Nevertheless i will contact the manufacturer to ask for further advice.

  • Firewire & bus powered devices - Phonic FireFly 302 Plus

    Hello Appleheads,
    Looking for some help if you have a spare moment.
    I just purchased a Phonic Firefly 302 Plus audio interface, and even though it is supposed to be able to be powered by the firewire bus, I am unable to get it to work. The unit's power light does not come on at all, however when using the external power supply that is also supplied it does work. I have tested two firewire cables, 1 of which I know works.
    Are there any tricks to get this to work? Can you change power output settings for firewire ports somewhere in the system?
    I am using a 6 circuit firewire 400 cable that came with the device. This is the only firewire device connected to my computer. The computer is connected to a power supply. Running OSX 10.6.4.
    My Macbook Pro...
    Model Identifier: MacBookPro4,1
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
    Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.
    Hartz.

    The unit works fine with DC power. I am yet to test it on another computer to know for sure.
    An interesting point has been raised to me though that has been discussed here: https://www.mhsecure.com/faq/index.php?action=artikel&cat=3&id=21&artlang=en&hig hlight=bus power
    +The MacBook Pro models include protection circuitry to shut down the bus power when a device's inrush current amount violates a threshold. This issue affects the startup transient only, so you can power the MIO from its power supply to boot the box, then connect the FW to the computer, and remove the MIO power supply after it has joined the bus.+
    Surely this threshold would be set to the maximum voltage provided on the bus? 12v?
    Either way I have decided that I will just use the DC adapter.

  • I want to get my parents setup with an imac and iPad.  They are elderly and we live in different countries.  I want to know what solution exists so I can be the remote administrator to maintain and keep them up and running .. I dont want anything fancy.

    I would like to setup my eldery parents with an imac and ipad which I know will greatly help them in their daily life.  The technology they love to play with whenever I visit, but they can never keep anything running or sync'ed unless I am around.  Medical and other issues make this a real challenge for them.  Unfortunately, I live in a different country and see them maybe once per year.  I'm surrounded my apple products but never tried remote administration and wondered what I would need (software and hardware) to make this noble venture sucessful.  Anyone out there has some experience or recommendations?  I'm looking for something that is simple and reliable to implement ...

    JokerGirl,
    This is Scott J, I work for Intel and wanted to try and help you out. Sorry to hear about your current PC and your knee!
    I agree with the bigger screen. I have the Samsung ATIV Smart PC with a screen 11.6" which is great to watch shows/movies!  anything bigger is almost too big for a tablet (personal opinion).
    Yes, most if not all tablets will have speakers and a headphone jack
    You can watch YouTube
    Only certain models have keyboards, you will want to specify this when making a purchase. Note: most keyboards are sold separately.
    Covers are usually pretty easy to come buy, as well as screen protectors (clear plastic that covers and protects your screen from scratches, etc.)
    Depending on the Operating System (Windows, Android, etc.) you will have access to an app store where you can buy and download content. Alternatively you can access your favorite sites to read news, get books, magazines, etc.
    Hooking things to your tablet - different tablets will have different ports (USB, HDMI, etc.) Question to ask prior to making a purchase as some do not have ports (iPad). Back to my Samsung, I have several ports and do hook it to my TV
    Tablets can run anywhere from $150-$1,000.  The mid-range $400-$700 should fulfill all of your needs above and more!
    Here's an article that might help you narrow down your search: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/gadgets/high-tech-gadgets/5-tips-for-choosing-the-right-tablet....
    Happy Holidays!

  • Maverick does not recognize my Phonic Firefly 302 Firewire. One year waiting for a fix.

    Maverick does not recognize my Phonic Firefly 302 Firewire. One year waiting for a fix.

    Cedip,
    in September 2012, following the release of Mountain Lion, Phonic advised Firefly owners that their products’ support ended with Lion — with the possible exception of the Firefly 302 USB. Since they didn’t support the Firefly 302 FireWire under Mountain Lion, they’re not going to support it under Mavericks either. (Note that Mavericks was first released eight months ago, not one year ago.)

  • TS3276 An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

    An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

    For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
    If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
    Problem solved.
    And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.

  • I have a contact I no longer use and have deleted it from Contacts on my iMac and iPad, but it still keeps appearing in the To: box when I enter a similar contac, obote the iMac and iPad. How do I completely delete it to prevent this from happening? Thank

    I have a email address I no longer use and want, so have deleted it from my address book on my iMac and iPad. It kept reappearing when I started to type a similar email address, so I was advised to delete it by going to Mail on the iMac...  Mail > Window > Previous Recipients... and Delete from there... which worked, and it now no longer appears in the To: box when typing a similar email address in Mail on my iMac.
    However, even though I have deleted the same contact/email address on my iPad, it still appears when typing a similar email address in Mail on the iPad. How do I perform a similar action as I did on my iMac, to prevent it from reappearing?
    Hope someone can help.
    Thanks, Simon.
    On the iMac..

    The only way that I currently know of to remove old and invalid email addresses on the iPad is to restore back to factory defaults, which I assume that you won't want to do. You could try leaving feedback for Apple, and maybe in a future update we'll be able to edit them : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Can two Apple IDs be linked so that they can share data? My iMac and iPad have the same Apple ID and sync contacts, bookmarks, etc. My wife's iPad has a different Apple ID. Can it be linked somehow to mine to share contacts etc?

    Can two Apple IDs be linked so that they can share data? My iMac and iPad have the same Apple ID and sync contacts, bookmarks, etc. My wife's iPad has a different Apple ID. Can it be linked somehow to mine to share contacts etc?

    No. You cannot link your contacts to hers. However, you can use Home Sharing to share the information:

    iOS- Setting up Home Sharing on your iOS device
    Setting up Home Sharing for Apple TV (2nd & 3rd generation)
    iTunes- Setting up Home Sharing on your computer

  • I have a different Apple id on my PowerBook from that on my iMac and iPad. Photo Stream does not connect to my Powerbook. How do I change the Apple id in iCloud on my PowerBook? Will this link all 3 machines to PhotoStream?

    I have a different Apple id on my PowerBook from that on my iMac and iPad. Photo Stream does not connect to my Powerbook. How do I change the Apple id in iCloud on my PowerBook? Will this link all 3 machines to PhotoStream?

    You can't simply change the details.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

  • E-mail (Outlook) syncs to iMac and iPad, but not to iPhone. How can I get it to sync to all three devices?

    My e-mail (Outlook) syncs to my iMac and my iPad.  However, I can read e-mails on my new iPhone, respond to them, and even erase them, but when I go to my computer or iPad afterwards, they still appear unopened and I have to open each one and close it again so it doesn't show up as an unread e-mail.  This does not happen with the iMac and iPad; deleting it on one of those deletes it on the other as well.  What am I doing wrong?

    I asked the hosts to relocate your question to the Using iPhone Forum. You should get helped there.

  • HT4783 Why can I not airdrop between my iMac and iPad Air?

    Is there a way to airdrop between my iMac and iPad Air?

    AirDrop uses different systems to transfer data in iDevices and Macs, so you cannot use AirDrop between an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad and a Mac. If you want this feature, send the idea to Apple > http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Instead, there are other ways to transfer data between the Mac and your iPad, like Dropbox, or use iTunes.

  • Does there exist in Belgium voiceover training for imac and ipad for the visually impaired?

    I think that everything that he wants to do is very doable. It would be quite a project for someone to take on for him. If it is a popular hymnbook it may well be a welcome blessing/gift of love for many others as well if made available. As I would envision the project it would require either the sacrifice of a copy of the hymnal or the availability of a loose leaf version of the hymnal, so that the individual pages could be taken apart and scanned. The scanned pages could then be assembled into a pdf document that is easily readable on many apps available for the iPad. Better still would be to research if the publishers of the hymnal have not already created an electronic version of the book in pdf format. If the publisher has not already crossed this bridge, then their permission would legally need to be secured before starting such a project of copying their compilation of hymns. Even though they may not own the rights to an old hymn which is now in the public domain, they hold the rights to the layout and composition of the printed pages of their hymnal.
    The Accessibilty settings in the iPad itself is capable of enlarging text for the visually impaired, as well as providing white text on a black background.

  • How to edit/share documents between iMac and iPad

    I would like to edit documents on my iPad and have those changes appear on my iMac and vice versa.
    I was hoping to use Office2 HD and Dropbox, but it seems that documents can't be saved back to Dropbox on the iPad. Everytime I try and save in Office2 HD I get a "this folder is read-ony" error.
    Is this a problem with Dropbox or is it a problem with Office2 HD?
    What work flow would people recommend? I was hoping to not have to buy the whole iWorks for both my iMac and iPad. I don't do that much of this kind of stuff and was hoping for a cheaper solution.

    Thanks Angelus angel.
    I think I worked out my problem. Because of the way the iPad deals with security you can't open a document directly from the Dropbox app into another app and then save it back.
    Instead I had to setup my Dropbox details in Office2 itself. Now it works great!

  • IMac and iPad air vs MacBook Pro retina

    Hello there
    With the new products being released, I was wondering what combination people have gone for.
    At present I have an iPhone 5s, iPad 2 and windows laptop but really want a mac.
    What combination have others gone for??
    I am considering iMac and iPad air, or Retina MacBook Pro with potential retina ipad mini.
    Problem with the iPad mini is, is there a real need with the iPhone and rMB Pro?
    Cheers
    Jonathan

    My old 17" MacBook Pro finally died, since I like a large dispaly and Apple no longer makes a 17" laptop I decide on a 27" iMac. I travel quite a bit and since my iPad 3 has replaced the laptop while I'm on the road I decided my money was better spent getting a higher end iMac rather than a MacBook. Even around the house my MacBook was pretty much left on the desk since I always grab the iPad when going portable.
    I wouldn't compare the iPad with an iPhone. And the only way to really choose between the iPad mini and an Air is to go to a store and hold them. Myself, I again prefer the larger screen.

    Goto bottom of scren in iTunes there is a section called sharing when it is connected to your computer. The sharing section lists those apps where data/files can be directly imported via syncing. Click on the app you want to transfer and then add the file.

  • HT4557 Sharing music between home iMac and iPad

    Hi,
    i have turned on Home Sharing on my iMac and iPad but I cannot see the More option leading to the Shared option in my iTunes.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    First of all - The More button is in the Music App at the bottom of the screen - not in iTunes.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac and go to iTunes>Preferences>Sharing. Do you have Share Library on Local Network selected?
    In the iPad settings go to Music>Apple ID. Are you signed in?
