What audio interfaces are compatible with the iMac/Intel computer?

I see that MOTU has Intel-compatible drivers for its high-end audio interfaces. Are there any other audio interfaces--USB or Firewire--that are at present compatible with the Intel Duo Core machines that are under $300? I've checked with Tascam and Presonus, and theirs are not yet compatible. I have an inquiry in to M-Audio, but haven't heard back yet.
PS: Does anyone else think it is just a teensy bit dishonest of Apple to be selling audio interfaces in its online store without pointing out explicitly that they don't work on the Intel machines?

Well, it looks like M-Audio's Firewire Solo has a beta driver available for the Duo Core. Better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. And it's well under $200 at a couple online stores.

  • What DVD drives are compatible with the iMac G4 17 1ghz?

    I need a new CD drive that can at least play DVD movies. I do not want to pay the large sum of money just because it's an apple brand, I know there are some compatible drives out there.

    All optical drives are DVD capable these days.

    It is pretty much generic drive-wise.

  • What usb keyboards are compatible with the Intel iMac

    Please can someone tell me what USB Apple Keybouards are compatable with the intel Imac
    howard

    Some PC keyboards may not work with the Mac. Especially, specialty gaming keyboards will not work with Macs and OS X.  Some PC keyboards are designed to specifically work with newer versions of Windows at that's it!
    They may not even work as a basic keyboard, but not entirely sure.
    I know for a fact specialty gaming keyboards do not work at all on a Mac because there have been posts here from gamers who tried to use special gaming keyboards and mice and they would not function on a Mac.
    If you know anyone with a Mac, ask them if they have a spare Mac keyboard you can try before buying.
    Good Luck!

  • Which audio interfaces are compatible with a Lightning to USB Camera adapter???

    Would like to use my iPad Mini with Lightning Adapter in conjunction with an audio interface. What are the requirements for a device that would accept the adapter (what type of USB input/output). Thanks!

    It should work.
    Reset the iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
    And, just is case, did you remember to turn the camera on after it was connected to the iPad?

    Did you also try to contact HP support? They will need on the support side your Serial number to verify what docking stating it can use.

  • What car audio units are compatible with the older CDX757MX 10 disk CD changer?

    I would like to replace my car audio unit with one that can control the CDX757MX changer and also have an mp3 jack in the front. I know my current one is 10 years old. It still works but I want to still use the changer and also be able to plug in my mp3 player.
    Thanks John

    I know this is a very old post but I have the same situation. I have two CD changers, the CDX757MX. I would like to buy a Sony stereo (used apparently) that will control 1 or both of them. I would really like to have a model with Bluetooth capability. Does such a stereo exist?
    Could I please get a list of the compatible units for this changer?
    Thanks,

    With the camera connection kit you're able to plug in regular SD cards with one adapter, while the second adapter does include a USB port to plug your camera in. I just remember reading that "most cameras" are compatible.

  • What printers are compatible with the airport extreme?

    What printers are compatible with the airport extreme?

    Virtually any wireless printer will work just fine as well as a printer that connects using Ethernet. If you are looking at an All-in-One type of device....all functions like print, scan, copy, maintenance, etc will be supported.
    If you are looking at USB devices, Apple does not provide a list of compatible models, so It is difficult to say with certainly what will work and what will not. In general, most USB printers will work.
    But....very important....if you are looking at an All-in-One USB device, you need to keep in mind that only the print function will work when the device is connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme. Scan, copy, fax, maintenance, etc. will not be supported.
    Bottom line...if you are looking at an All-in-One device and you need all of the functions, you need to choose a device that connects using wireless only or Ethernet, not USB.

  • What cameras  are compatible with the camera connection kit

    what cameras are compatible with the camera connection kit and ipad2

    I also recently bought the camera kit and found that it worked fine as long as you don't format the SD card using PC. Once I re-formatted using my camera I could once again upload my photos. that was until I switched formats to Adobe RAW, it seemed unable to upload again. So I switched to S RAW and that worked fine. Sometimes my kit won't upload photos but I find that by just re-inserting the card it works fine.
    Haven't tried video yet, but I recently learned that the devices are quit sensitive to the "Format"(that needs to be FAT32, or exFAT- but in this instance it needs to be formatted by a Mac).
    Good luck

    What joysticks are compatible with the MacPro please?

    average typical games on the Mac.
    Well, That narrows it......
    Many games simply rely on mouse control via alternate USB device.
    In OS X, joystick to mouse control may be of interest:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/391977?start=0&tstart=0
    The mentioned USB Overdrive will enable that which many devices can't do in OS X and have separate drivers for in Windows.

  • HT4859 what does it mean if my new iphone says that iCloud backup are compatible with the version of iOS (6.0.2) on this iblePhone

    I am trying to back up my fiels from old iPhone 3S to the new one I have just bought using iCloud and when I am doing it, my new iphone 5 is writing thet iCloud back-up are compatible with the version of iOS  (6.0.2) on this iPhone. What does it mean?

    I just worked on this same issue for someone else at work (iPhone 4 or 4S up to date). The iPhone 5 needs to be up to date to the newest version of IOS
    Here is what I did:
    1. Got into the iPhone 5 without using an account
    2. After getting in, it shows that there is an update
    3. Completed the update
    4. After the phone rebooted,  went in and completed a reset of the phone to factory
    5. When it came back up followed prompts and was able to restore from iCloud backup.
    Hope this helps

  • What video cameras are compatible with mac without having to download software

    What video cameras are compatible with mac computers without having to download software?

    Did you try connecting your camera to the computer USB port via the supplied USB interface cable instead of plugging in the SD card directly?
    No driver is needed to connect your computer to your camera.
    http://usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/camcorders/consumer_camcorders/consu mer_camcorders/vixia_hf_r52#DriversAndSoftware
    Regardless of whether or not you 'like' downloading and installing software on your computer, Canon DOES HAVE software available for your specific camera and it IS compatible with recent versions of the Mac OS X operating system. Maybe try that instead of whining here about it not being compatible.

  • Griffin's Pro Speaker Breakout Cable compatible with the iMac G5?? HELP!

    I would love any suggestions anyone has as to making Griffin's Pro Speaker Breakout Cable compatible with the iMac G5.
    I just made the very foolish mistake of purchasing Griffin's Pro Speaker Breakout Cable for my iMac G5, which I am sure others, more up to speed on their apple products, realize are not compatible. The Pro Speaker Breakout Cable, as its name would suggest, connects to the Apple Pro Speakers Minijack available in G4s and G3s.
    I need someway to connect this Apple Pro Mini plug (2.5mm plug) to my audio-out 3.5mm output jack on my iMac. I have found this connector http://www.mpja.com/productview.asp?product=11298+AD but I am not sure if the 2.5mm Apple jack is the same as other 2.5mm jacks. Does anyone know if the two are compatible???
    I guess the other option is the iFire - or, conversely, to just forget the whole thing and get some new speakers.
    Any suggestions on the best/ most cost effective option would be greatly appreciated!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Chris

    Forgive me for not being specific enough. I do not want to connect apple pro speakers. I want to connect my household speakers via the Pro Speaker Breakout Cable http://www.griffintechnology.com/archive/audio/prospeaker.html to my iMac. However, I did not realize that the breakout cable connected to the obsolete Apple Pro Speaker Minijack 2.5mm.
    Basically, I am just looking for the most cost effective method to get suitable sound from my computer. The threee options I am considering are:
    a) 2.5mm jack to 3.5mm plug converter allowing my breakout cable to fit into my audio input (which I am not sure will work - as I am not sure if the Apple minijack is a standard 2.5mm)
    b) get the iFire, plug my breakout cable into the iFire and then to my computer.
    c) get a different sound system entirely.
    I am really looking for any advice as to which would be best.
