USB TV Tuner Card for Macbook Air

Dear all,
Hello! i'm using a Macbook Air (mid-2012) 11.6". i'm in need of a USB tv tuner card. Which brand i should choose?
Please note that, Gadmei is the most available brand in our country. is it possible to use this brand of tv tuner (USB) with Macbook air? OS is- MacOSX 10.9.2 (mavericks). Please suggest.
Also plz tell me is there any way to use Gadmei or RealMedia TV tuner with mac without official mac driver? (i mean using EyeTV or such third-party TV app)
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Unfortunately most of these TV devices require USB2 bandwidth so are not suitable for the iMac G3. 
The Firewire versions (EyeTV 310, 410 and 610 depending on input type) are the only options.
The EyeTV 250 is an analogue only Tuner that does work on USB1.1 but in a low quality mode only.

  • USB to Firewire adapter for MacBook Air?

    I would like to switch to a MacBook Air, but I still need to use my video camera via firewire. I found out that there is no direct way to connect firewire to MacBook Air, isn't it?
    Then I have found PCMCIA cards supporting firewire connections. The remain question now is: Does a PCMCIA drive with USB connector exist where I can plug in the PCMCIA firewire card? It seems that such a kind of combination works for UMTS PCMCIA cards. But does it work also for firewire cards? Which adapter could work?
    Or is there any other way to get my camera working at MacBook Air?

    Hi Michael,
    I am facing the same difficulty.. would like to plug my camcorder on my mac book air..
    but without firewire... do not know how to proceed.. which is very annoying..
    I ll get back to you if I come across some useful info
    By for now

  • Is there usb to firewire adaptor for macbook air

    I have macbook air and want to connect my lacie drive via firewire but dont have a firewire port.  can you connect via a usb to firewire adaptor?

    Going down such as Thunderbolt to Firewire might be an option, but best bet for that is probably going to be Apple...Thunderbolt is an Apple invention.
    Sonnett makes really great products, I put one of their G4 processor cards, when you could still do that, into my PPC Mac and changed it from a 604e processor to a G4.  Worked flawlessly.  Their products are very likely to do exactly as advertised.
    Speed of connection goes: USB, Firewire 400, Firewire 800, Thunderbolt.  Unfortunately there are not very many Thunderbolt drives on the market at this point.  Too new technology.

  • Firewire to usb adapter for macbook air

    Hello,
    Just purchased the latest version Macbook Air.  I'd like to transfer video from a Sony video camera w/mini DV tape, into iMovie '11 on the laptop.  Trouble is, I can't use my existing firewire cable as before on the iMac desktop.  There are prior discussions on the forum about this but none current.  Have there been any new developments in the firewire adapter arena for Macbook Air?  Thx.

    Sonnet Technologies is supposed to introduce a Thunderbolt-Firewire adapter called the Sonnet Allegro later this month. http://www.sonnettech.com
    "The Allegro™ FW800 Thunderbolt™ Adapter enables users to plug in a FireWire® 800 device, including a bus-powered drive, to any computer with a Thunderbolt port."

  • Is there an SDXC adaptor for Macbook Air 11

    Is there an SDXC adaptor for Macbook Air 11

    For computers without a built-in camera card reader, you can purchase one for use
    with a USB port. So long as the adapter is qualified for use with SDXC, it should work.
    Good luck!

  • TV tuner Card for Mac with Component input

    Hey everyone, I was hoping someone could help me find a good TV Tuner card for my MacBook. I found a few potentials, however I've yet to find one with Component input that would allow me to play my XBox 360 at a resolution of 1050p. This is the resolution of my stand-alone monitor, and with S-Video the resolution would drop into the 400's. Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Sean

    Does this work with a Mac? Looks like from the screenshots this is only compatible with Vista
    I'm also looking for something that also has a coaxle input along with the component input, so that I can watch TV!

  • Is there any usb in full box of macbook air?

    I bought Macbook air 13 in Apple Store Reseller in last year, they settuped my mac osx, and then give me full box of macbook, but when i checked the box i didn't see any usb for restoring osx? i don't know is there any usb in full box of macbook air???

    If yours is the mid 2011 model, then no, it does not come with a USB system disk. The computer has a Recovery Partition, and Internet Recovery mode to provide all you need to restore the system. All you really need is a reliable internet connection.
    Yes, I know, for some people it is a tad disconcerting, as they may not have a fast internet connection in the event that a restore is required. The best workaround is to create a clone of the system onto an external disk (using Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper apps). Potentially, if you do it early, you can fit everything onto a 16 GB flash drive.

  • Compatible at-home printer for MacBook Air 13"?

    Can anyone recommend an at-home printer for MacBook Air 13" for my granddaughter?  High school now requires papers typed and printed.  Thanks.

    Personally I like Canon inkjet printers. When I connected it to the USB port, the MacBook immediately recognized it and it worked without a hitch. If you're going to be printing mostly B/W then there are many inexpensive laser printers that typically print faster and crisper for text. IMHO.

  • What office program is best for macbook air 2013

    what office program is best for macbook air 2013

    To create some sanity here:
    If you are going to share files with family, friends, and coworkers Microsoft Office is the obvious and easy (though expensive) choice.
    If you are trying to save money and still remain compatible with friends LibreOffice is free and can read/write Microsoft Office files nearly perfectly.
    Another free choice is Apple's iWork suite (you'll have to download it from the App store because it isn't pre-installed) Numbers, Pages, and Keynote. These programs read Microsoft documents mostly accurately but not quite as well as LibreOffice and export to Office compatible documents. But neither LibreOffice nor iWork saves in Microsoft formats by default which means you must remember to export them. That can be a problem.
    In terms of ease of use I give iWork a slight edge over the other two. In terms of doing annoying things I don't expect, Office is the hands down winner.

  • Apple's Replacement Program for Macbook Air mid-2012

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to know more about apple's replacement program for Macbook Air mid-2012. I updated the said firmware and then my mac air stops working. However, according to the program, they are replacing it free of charge. I just went to an authorized service provider here in the Philippines and I just want to know if I will be paying any. I can't find good discussions in Google. Thanks.

    You should not, as the replacement program is worldwide. In case the reseller refuses to repair your Mac for free, print this website and take it with you

    Webcam not working for Macbook Air 2013 after upgrading to OSX Mavericks? Yahoo/ Google/Skype cam chats not working. Facetime works though. Any updates of Mavericks released to fix this?

    I have a MacBook Pro Retina display: 15.4-inch late 2015 with OS X Mavericks install, only on second week. 
    Insight works on FaceTime, Skype, but yahoo program does not show insight cam in dropped down.
    Now when I got my new MacBook Pro, I down loaded all new Skype (worked tested), FaceTime (Worked Tested), Yahoo (not worked)
    Fix:
    With the new Maverick you have to use there messager program Version 8.0 (4218). Once I add my yahoo account video works again.
    It also supported AOL, AIM, Google Talk, Jabber.
    Guess I miss it frist time... hope this helps...

  • Is Mac's firewall sufficient or is will an additional firewall help?  What security suite do you recomend for MacBook Air with Maverick?

    Is Mac's firewall sufficient or is will an additional firewall help?  What security suite do you recomend for MacBook Air with Maverick?

    Third party security software is better at causing problems then it is at solving them.
    I recommend against them.
    If you felt it is necessary then configure the firwall software included with OS X.
