Power IPOD when using 4pin firewire (ilink)

My laptop only has a 4pin firewire socket (no power) and ausb 1.1 socket.
Is there a way to sync using firewire 4pin while charging using usb or external charger?

Glad to help.

AC Power stops when using s-video output

This only happens when using the s-video output. It usually takes about an hour before the ac power adapter stops working then the powerbook switches to battery power.
For all other times when not using the video output, it would work normally [ i could leave the ac power plugged in for weeks without this problem occuring ].
Is there a way to fix this when using the s-video output.

If you know someone with another 65W power adapter I would try using it to see if it does the same thing. If it doesn't then you know to buy a new power adapter.

How to solve power error when using USB camera adapter in your camera

Hello Everyone,
First of all I wanna say reducing the output of the USB camera adapter from 100mA to 20mA just to save battery life is by far the most incredible adjustment in the history of @)#*$#%*($#!
I know most of us bought the USB Camera adapter so we can use it as a USB adapter for the Camera (saves us from taking the memory card on and off the camera) but sadly the "Ginues Apple" reduced it to 20mA which decreases the range of cameras and flash drives that will work with it. I use Gopro Hero 3+ black and everytime I plug it with the adapter to my ipad I keep on seeing this @#@$#@ power error. I didn't want to waste the expensive adapter so I tried to look for a micro sd card reader but I don't think 20mA readers still exist.
Now to solve this problem is very simple add a power source to help that 20mA up, most of the my friends bought a powered port hub but it's not my type because it's bulky, needs an outlet and not portable.
So I found a better solution on how you can add a power source and still be portable, the answer is power bank or portable charger.
Things you need:
Camera
USB camera adapter (Ginues Apple product)
Power bank (I'm using 8,400 mAh)
Dual USB Male to 5 Pin Mini USB Y Cable
Ipad
Procedure:
Camera --- 5 Pin Mini USB ------------------ USB camera adapter ---------- Ipad
'---------- Power Bank
Attach you camera to the 5 pin mini usb then the USB1 male to the female apple's USB camera adapter then to the Ipad. = this will show the power error.
Then attach the USB2 to the power bank/portable charger to power it up.
your welcome

Computer goes power-off when using flash player

Hi,
When using Linux (both Fedora 20 and openSuse 13.1), the latest updates installed, with latest flash player, recently my computer either starts rebooting continuously or just goes power-off. This happens between 15 seconds to 1 minute into a video. Earlier I thought it was the computer hardware being at fault, but after thoroughly cleaning it, it still happens and without playing a flash video, the computer just keeps running. List of my hardware (from dmesg): AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3100+, ATI RV620 LE [Radeon HD 3450] video, 2 GB RAM.
Thanks for any suggestion or solution...
H.

It's either graphics drivers or a heat problem (but that would be more the turn-off, but not the rebooting symptom).
You can disable hardware acceleration in Flash to try and avoid it.

Audio noise when using VGA firewire

I am using a MBP 2010, purchased in August. I am running ProTools and AbletonLive out to speakers through firewire via M-Audio Firewire 410 and/or through the Digi002 Mixer. I have an external firewire hard drive that I have turned off during this problem, so it has not effect.
Additionally, I have an extra monitor connected via VGA to a miniDisplayPort>VGA connector. When I plug this into the MBP I receive a lot of unwanted noise out of the speakers. I have tried to unplug the power source to the MBP and the problem continues. I have the option of trying a miniDisplayPort>DVI connector to the extra monitor, however I have to purchase that connector.
Has anyone encountered this problem? Any suggestions on how to remedy it? It is really difficult to do any audio work with the awful noise in the speakers, and while I can do with just the MBP monitor, it is nice to have a second monitor.
Thanks

I have been dealing with this exact problem for years!
The noise is now doing my head in and I'd love to get it fixed.
Another thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1807161?start=0&tstart=0 suggested using a ground loop isolator. However, they were dealing with RCA connectors.
I am using a Fast Track MAudio Ultra 8r, with my Mac Book.
So I'm sure I could isolate the noise between the speaker and the sound card - but I would need to use XLR or TRS, which the thread also warns against using such a device.
(I used to own a Berhinger hum destroyer.
It worked a little, but not only did it seem make the signal sound thin, it also had Berhinger written on it.)
Both my HP w1907v display and my MAudio card are plugged into the same power supply.
(As are you, I'm converting mac minidisplay port to VGA.)
I'm starting to think it might have something to do with the cheap monitor.
What kind of monitor are you using?
Is it sharing the power source with the Digi 002?
Does the noise you hear also get affected by mouse movement?
Maybe you've found a solution already!?
If so I'd be very grateful to hear about it.

DVI to ADC adapter STudio display will not power on when used with Mac mini

I have a Mac mini and I just purchased a used apple 17" CRT studio display. I bought the DVI to ADC Adapter as recommended by my Apple store. When I hook everything up (I have checked and redone this two times) The power light will come on for about a second when presses. When the mini powers up there is a blank dark screen. I would appreciate any ideas on this. thanks!
Mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.1)

Hi
unfortunately I think the Apple store have sold you the wrong item.
I'm almost certain the DVI to ADC adapter only works with ADC based flat panel displays. DVI ports can output digital or analogue signals (or a combination of the two). The adapter seems to provide digital, which is why it works with the LCD displays, but not analogue, which is why it doesn't work with the CRT displays.
Confusingly Apple did a 17" Studio display both as a CRT and LCD.
Dr. Bott do a similar adapter but they explicitly state it's not compatible with the 17" CRT.
Unfortunately I'm not sure there's a solution, as the display has an ADC connector yet I'm not aware of any adapters available that will work.

What files can go on IPod when used as External Disk?

I have done appropriate research, and I know how to use IPod 60GB Video to store and download data files, but I am unable to find out what file types it will accept. Are there any exceptions?
I ask this because I just learned that "Notes" will only accept .txt files and not Microsoft Word document file types.
For example, can I drag PDF files into it? Would I even be able to see them on display?
Thanks!!!!

The reason notes only accept txt files is because they can be read on the ipod, and you can save a .txt file out of microsoft word by the way. When you use the ipod as external Disk, that's exactly what that is, an external disk, and you cannot see those files on the ipod. All you can do with external disk is store files (any kind) and move them to another computer.

Frozen iPod when using Pioneer Car Kit

Up till tonight, my ipod has always worked fine with my cars Pioneer headunit and ipod connect equipment but its now decided to freeze and won't let me do anything. The screen has completely locked and I've tried doing the restart procedure but nothing happens. It is less than a year old and so wouldn't have thought that would be a problem. When it's plugged into my car, it comes up saying an error on the headunit screen, when I plug it into my computer, nothing on ipod happens, doesn't recognise anything being connected, and the screen has just stayed the same with the Pioneer logo. Any thoughts?

i hv a new '10 jeep commander w/ uconnect and hv the iphone/ipod connector factory installed in the glove box. all worked great before i put the ios4 update on my 3gs. before the update all my ipod stuff on the phone was all on my touch screen. now gone:( will only play the last song that was on when i used the ipod part of the iphone and i get the message this doesn't work w/ iphone, instead of the airplane mode message that has appeared when i plugged in forever.
hope there is others w/ this. apple better get an update for the update.

Power usage when using line out dock /poor battery life

Hi,
Does using a line out dock use more battery power than using the headphone jack?
I'm asking because in real life usage I am only getting about 6 hours of play time from my 4GB Nano. For me real life usage is maybe 20-30 minutes of use at a time while commuting to and from work or going for walks. Much of that play time is spent using a line out dock connection in my car. I have an Aux port in my car and the sound from the headphone jack is horrible. With the line out dock it's great.
I did run the Apple suggested battery test and when I leave my unit on and don't touch it at all I get about 13-13.5 hours of play time. So I'm trying to understand why that drops in half when I use the Nano the way I use it. Was wondering if using the line out dock is part of that. I do not have the Equalizer on, I use the Hold switch when I'm not using the Nano and am carrying it around in a pocket or in my purse, and I have the backlight set to 5 seconds. I don't use any of the extra features. I just play music. All of my music should be in AAC format. It's music I either purchased and downloaded from ITunes or music I imported from my own CD's using the default ITunes settings.

I too share your frustration. I'm on my fifth iPad as an owner, and really like them, but Apple made a huge mistake with the Air 2 by making it thinner and putting a smaller battery in it. The iPad Air was wonderfully thin and didn't need slimming down. I get noticeably worse battery life on my iPad Air 2 compared to my first iPad Air. My Air had epic, brag-worthy battery life. My Air 2 has cringe-worthy battery life. Apple's product designers need to get their priorities straight: thin, when it compromises the user experience, is TOO THIN.

Monitor power settings when using HDMI to external TV

Folks
My monitor powers up just fine according to the 5 min setting I have. However, if it's projecting a movie to a TV, it never sleeps the monitor. Any way to change this behavior?
Thx

Hi,
Another workaround method is you can customize the option called: Choose what closing the lid does
in Power settings. Then choose Do nothing.
Then when you play movie through TV, you can close your laptop lid.

Dead ipod when using 2nd laptop to charge

1. Using the USB port on my laptop (Dell Latitude 420) to charge my 5G 80GM ipod has worked fine for the past 30 days since new.
2. Switched to my wife's Dell Inspiron 5150 to charge it and now it's dead. I started out with the flashing white screen every 5-7 seconds and then absolutely nothing.
3. I reconnected to my laptop and its still dead. iTunes does not recognize that the ipod is connected.
I have considered:
A. 5Rs, but don't think this is an option given that the ipod must be charged first and all indications are that it is not charging.
B. The toggle of the Hold button followed by the menu/select button exercise.
C. Ran the diagnostics in iTunes - redlight/failure in the iTunes box.
Any help appreciated.

Have you left it pluged in for an hour, I'd hate to say it but you may need to send it off to get it fixed.

Messed up photos on ipod when using vista

i have a 5thGen ipod and my sister has a new nano. we both had our own librarys with our own photos on them from our own laptops. however we recently got a new pc with vista. because it had a large harddrive on it we decided to merge or libiarys together on this pc and update our ipods on it. the photos for my ipod are from a number of different cameras which are organised using an adobe photoshop album. my sisters are all from the same camera and are stored stored in the myphotos folder in windows. the photos on both used to display fine using xp but now most of the photos are messed up on both my 5thgen and my sister nano. usually the colours are messed up but some display black or white screens, some are upside down and some cut off setions of the image. the images are also being displayed in a very random order. before it was date order on mine and file name on my sisters.

If you weren't so lazy you would have done a search here and found the blurred photo problem is in several posts and no solution was found.
You can tell I'm being sarcastic here.
Have you upgraded to version 7.2 and tried resyncing your photos?

Sleek xfers like IPOD when using multi pc

does the sleek xfer files like the ipod... as in, if you sync with PC # and then sync with your laptop or PC #2, do you have to delete your playlist and music thats playable (not using as a flash dri've option)? Or is the Sleek like the Neeon, whereas you can sync the player on multiple computers w.o deleting your playlist... I like to travel between my home pc and my dorm laptop.
Thanks

It depends on what software you use I would imagine.
Assuming the MTP version of the Sleek, I understand with WMP it syncs both playlists from WMP and the content. I'm not sure if the playlists are a one way sync.
There is of course other software like Creative's MediaSource (and maybe other software that Creative ship with it).

Playlists aren't showing under the music tab on my ipod when using Itunes.

So I bought a new Ipod Nano the other day and I wanted to create folders and playlists manually so I can organise things to the way I like them.
But every time I click 'new playlist/folder' it appears under the device tab instead of the music tab like it had done before.
I have my settings set to manual and I don't want to sync things over because when I do that, it wont let me organise playlists or folders.
So can someone tell me how I can fix this and what I am doing wron?. Or if this is just an annoying new feature of the new itunes?

I have this problem too. When i remove all my music, I am able to click on the music tab without a problem. This leads me to believe that iTunes isn't able to handle all my music? My laptop is fairly new, with an i7 processor and 8gb ram, so the computer is definitely not the problem. Any ideas? Were you able to fix it yet?
