The safety of the G5 and other hardware

I recently got a Pro Tools Mbox 2. I also have an external hard drive. Is it safe to put both of these items close to the tower? I would like to put my Mbox on the tower but I am not sure its safe for the G5 of the Mbox.

Hi Tyler Routson-
I am not exactly sure what you mean by "safe", but it is not unusual for folks to put some hardware device on top of their G5 case. I have a USB hub and an external hard drive. From a physical/heat perspective you should be fine.
However, you may find that the Mac injects some kind of noise into the audio. It may be worse the closer the unit is to the Mac. The only way to truly find out is to try it and see. If you hear noise try a different physical location.
Luck-

  • What is the motherboard and other hardware for the Pavillion dv2700?

    I just got it from a friend who didn't know how to fix it, and I really just need to know the parts I need. Has the battery problem been resolved which was the root to this overheating?

    Hello
    You are right. WLAN card in your notebook is Intel (Golan) Intel 3945ABG and the driver can be downloaded from http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads
    As I can see there is version 12.2.0.11.3 available for download.
    Download driver for Vista and with exe files extract it to some folder. Later look check this folder and go into folder Vista32Drv.
    Drivers are there and install them manually with WLAN properties > install new driver.
    Does this method works?
    What so say about BT? The latest version is the newest and you can install it on your Satellite notebook.
    What you want to do with BIOS settings exactly? some certain hardware components can be also disabled in device manager.

  • I bought an ipod touch at a pawn shop and it has account registered to another person on itunes. i was wondering since i started my own account with itunes and tried to sync the music and other apps to my account would it erase everything on the ipod

    i bought an ipod touch at a pawn shop and it has account and registered to another person on it and i don't know the password. and i started my own itunes account on the computer and when i connect the ipod to the computer the other persons account shows up to be synced to the computer and when i hit the sync button it says that the ipod can only be synced to one library at a time. then it says that it would erase his library contents and all other apps in order for it to be synced to my account. so i was wondering if there is anyway to sync all the music and other apps to my account with out it erasing everything on the ipod.

    Do what iTunes is telling you to do.  Wehn you purchased the iPod the apps and other media do not transfer to you.  Then are permently locked/lienced only to the person who purchased them.  Using the stuff on the iPod is stealing.

  • I am playing in Pogo and cannot open the games even though the homepage and others will open. The message is THE CONNECTION WAS RESET WHILE THE PAGE WAS LOADING. How do I fix this???

    I am playing in Pogo and cannot open the games even though the homepage and others will open. The message is THE CONNECTION WAS RESET WHILE THE PAGE WAS LOADING.
    All my friends are playing and it seems I am the only one have this problem.

    The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

  • Suddenly in the middle of editing a large project the cropping and other tools stopped working. Did i hit some key or something accidently?

    suddenly in the middle of editing a large project in Aperture the cropping and others tools stopped working. Did I accidently hit something to do that?

    Maybe you hit the "p" key?
    Then "Quick Preview" will be turned on and prevent editing. Hit "p" again or use the "View" ->"Quick Preview" menu entry.

    I remember that with Snow Leopard you could download them from the Apple website.

    Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
    Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
    Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
    and on the iPhone:
    Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
    Then, on the phone, tap
    Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
    Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.

  • How do I get Apple to stand behind their warranty and replace my defective computer? The hard drive has been replaced twice, the track pad once, and other hardware issues. Can anyone help me so I can get Apple to replace my defective

    My computer has been a lemon. They refuse to properly diagnose, fix, and document my complaints regarding the multiple failures I have had with this computer. Also, I was told that upon my logic board being replaced back in April or May that the topic of replacing the computer altogether with one of equal equipment would be appropriate. Insofar, I have been to the store at least three times in the past month to discuss my issues with the computer that were not resolved when the hard drive was replaced in May. I was also told that the repairs on my system would be good for up to 90 days after the repair work was done and that I could buy AppleCare at the end of the 90 days in lieu of insuring a product that still had defects. I have been on the phone for what feels like hours with Apple trying to work this issue out but they are not wanting to stand behind their product nor are they willing to stand behind their warranty. The warranty expressly states that a computer can be replaced entirely if the defect is considered hardware malfunction and at the representative’s discretion. Every time I brought it in for repair it was due to hardware malfunction; however, they also said once that it was an accessory that I bought that was causing the problem which ended up not being the case after all. This is totally unacceptable. I also asked Mark from AppleCare to let me know what was repaired the second time the computer was put through a diagnostic at the Apple Store. Beachballs, Gears, excessive heat, not being taken seriously at the Apple Store, being insulted by a Mac Genius at the Apple Store, being misinformed by a Mac Genius, dealing with a misinformed Mac Genius. They replaced my iPod touch without much ado.  I was also accused by an Apple Genius of being "hyperbolic." He said this in response to my complaint of the computer melting--literally--items on my computer desk. I am either wanting a refund of my money or a replacement of my laptop. Also, I have lost an incredible amount of data on my computer due to the hard drive being replaced x 2. Not acceptable. Also, the Apple store is 1 hour from where I live. I am currently looking for employment and additionally have a legal case pending where I am the plaintiff. I have lost VERY important documents in both matters which has caused an extreme amount of stress. I do not need the added stress of an unreliable and unsafe computer. I also have been waiting for a call back from Kelly (left two voice messages with Kelly) and Mark (wrote an e-mail for which he has not responded to insofar) at Apple but have heard nothing from either one of them regarding the status of my computer. The only thing I received which was automated by the Apple Store was a confirmation that my computer was ready. I have requested documentation of what was done (basically, I am asking for the receipt) before I drive an hour to pick it up. Haven't heard anything. I brought this computer in on July 24, 2011. We are now upon August 2nd. When do I get to know what was even done on my computer? Do they really think that I am going to take back a computer into my possession only to have to bring it back shortly thereafter to address one of the many issues causing it to malfunction in the first place? I have owned 5 computers  since 1988. All of them PCs. This is my first Mac. Will it be my last?

    The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
    You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...

  • Upgrading the speed and other stuff on mac air

    hello i was wondering how i can make my early 09 mac air faster since i cant upgrade rams also can i upgrade the internal fan video card anything? thank you

    The Air cannot be upgraded. The CPU and RAM are mounted directly on the logic board and it has no graphics card - it uses a graphics subsystem that is part of the CPU. A larger hard drive can be installed but that is the only hardware upgrade possible. If your Air has a standard hard drive upgrading to an SSD would offer some speed increase but I'm not sure that is a cost efficient solution. If your hard drive is more than 85-90% full, deleting some old/unused files could make things a bit better. Certainly returning to Snow Leopard would give your computer a big speed bump.
