What midi interface would work with my iBook g4?

i want to record some simple vocals and was wondering what midi would be best

The midi interface works, but only with items with those kind of ports.
The one you posted a link to seems to need Serial ports. Not available
on newer Mac, perhaps on some older Tower G3/G4 or PCI card update.
https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=Mini+Macman+Midiman
While the iMic product allows other product to attach to the audio
circuitry inside the Mac, by use of USB ports. Midi porting isn't native.
So other adapter &/or components would be necessary with midi.
A search of various kinds and models of MIDI (if you even need it?)
would yield several kinds of technologies and some outdated even
more so than the USB2.0 or 1.1 ports on an early iBook G4.
(Some suggest using adapters and network ports, LAN, etc, if you
were set up to choose Ethernet hardware as a path. iMic is easier.)
The item you posted link to has no USB and no way to connect to
the Mac, as you cannot use standard high quality audio equipment
with the iBook G4 without accessing the USB ports. With an iMic
you could also access output, for better quality, or pro headphones.
Some products currently available may not work with the older vintage
iBook G4 hardware, but the iMic can be used to adapt microphones,
and better quality audio equipment to the Mac.
I see one could order the iMic product from the maker web page, but
did not try their site far enough to see if it would take actual orders.
In some locations, you may be able to find a quality second hand one
for less than the asking price (without warranty, though) of a new one.
What kinds of audio are you attempting? Do you have midi hardware
already? The item you posted a link to has no way to connect directly.
But the iMic product from Griffin does connect to a USB port. Easily.
Anyway, more info is needed...
Did you read the iMic -Griffin info?

What MIDI interface hardware works with Mavericks?

The usual frustrations when anything is upgraded: other things stop working. My Presonus Firebox is not compatible (although it lets me record, just not playback to create an audio track) with Mavericks and I would like to know what device will be. I am using Digital Performer (8.05 now).
This information does not seem to be available online.
I sure wish that the software engineers would give continuity as a very high priority.

if you have a retina MBP, you should run the 64bit versions of either 7 or 8/8.1. it isn't tied to mavericks, it is tied to your specific machine

I had a Tascam US 122 usb interface, but it didn't work with OSX Mavericks. What model would work with this? Would the US-144 mkii work with my system?

Thanks!

You didn't mention the kind of track in GB you are trying to create, but if you are connecting the keyboard with a guitar chord to the Tascam, you will need to set up a Real Instrument Track in GB to hear anything. If your keyboard has a midi out, use a midi cable to the midi input of the Tascam, create Software Instrument Track, and you will hear something. But with a guitar chord, it won't send the right signal to a Software Instrument Track. The headphone jack in the Tascam monitors the signal coming back to it out of GB (if you choose the US-122 as your monitor in GB's preferences), so you wouldn't hear your keyboard if the track is not set up correctly. It could be the drivers, but since you didn't mention the type of keyboard or the type of GB track, I thought that might be a possible answer as well.

Which is the best MIDI interface to use with Logic 7 ?

Hi folks :o)
Firstly, thanks all for any advice you can give. I'm a pro user, but right in the middle of a major upgrade (G4/OS9/CubaseVST32 >> G5/OSX/CubaseSX3/Logic7) & feel a huge learning curve coming on!
The situation is this:
I have a Steinberg Midex 8 midi interface, plus a MOTU MTPav in the cupboard. The Midex took place of the MTPav because it had much better midi timing under OS9 with Cubase... The Midex8 drivers for OSX, however, are still beta & a pile of rubbish. (It keeps losing communication with the G5.) I'm fed up with how bad Steinberg have been sorting (not!) these problems out (not to mention the fact that Cubase SX3 can't recognise my 'studio' created in Audio Midi Setup either.. arghh!), so I'm considering jumping ship & going entirely to Logic in one hit, plus whichever is the best midi-interface for this software & OSX.
As food for thought, I'm currently thinking of tracking down a 'Unitor 8', having made the (perhaps wrong) assumption that it'd work 'best' with Logic seeing as it was made by Emagic. BUT, despite a lengthy search in Logic 7's manuals & this forum, I can't find any mention of Emagic's 'Active Midi Transmission' protocol & whether or not Logic 7 supports it; AMT is the only reason I'd buy the Unitor. (I've got all the other bases covered with the MTPav.) I'm also concerned about the long-term support issues regarding drivers for the Unitor 8 & OSX; ****, I'm having enough problems with Steinberg & their Midex 8 (which is still a current product in theory!) without throwing Emagic & a midi interface that's no longer manufactured into the pot...
So..... What do you folks feel is the best midi interface to use with Logic 7 as regards tight midi timing & system reliability? Can anyone out there with a big midi setup categorically say "I've got one (or more) of these MIDI interfaces, it works beautifully under OSX & Logic 7, & the MIDI timing is rock-solid, even when put under heavy midi 'duress' " ??
Many thanks again in advance for any feedback!
Your new Logic Pro virgin ;o)
Jason

Thanks for your reply folks. It's good to hear a number of you are having good results with your MTPav - I guess I'll pull mine out of the cupboard in that case!
As an aside, it's been interesting to note how difficult it's been to get a clear answer from companies (be it shops or Apple) as to whether or not Logic 7 supports 'Active Midi Transmission' on the old Unitor 8 MkII..... (The reference manual has one mention of it in the index, yet points to a page that doesn't say anything about AMT at all!)
If anyone here DOES have a clear answer about AMT with Logic 7, I'd be very interested to hear about it... thanks.
Kind regards,
JC

What version of lightroom works with CS3?

What version of Lightroom works with Photoshop CS3?

They are different programs, so I imagine they all work with CS3. I don't use Lightroom, but I think Lightroom's ability to interface with Photoshop has evolved over the different versions, but I can't think how the Photoshop version would affect that, so the later the Lightroom version, the better.
BTW Lightroom 6 is rumoured to be coming very soon.

I had this video file and I was trying to flip it to a format that would work with iMovie. It used to have the Quicktime image with it. So, I assume it was a QT file. But, somehow I've changed the file from a video to a folder.

From the pic I noticed that the folder is 841.9mb. What's inside? Or what happens when you click on it?

Will a Midi to usb work with a korg triton pro x?

MIDI is MIDI.
if the keyboard has MIDI-OUT, and the MIDI interface you buy is Mac compatible, it will work

3rd party USB mouse won't work with G4 iBook 10.3.9

3rd party USB mouse (see specs below)won't work with G4 iBook 10.3.9.
http://www.inland-products.com/singleproduct.asp?search=usb&partnum=07340-SpecR
I notice the specs say this mouse works with windows(no mention of Mac) yet the guy where I bought it assured me it would work fine with a Mac. The keyboard/mouse preferences shows a muouse but there is no movement or response from mouse. I would assume it was not reading it if not from appearance of "mouse" preference. I also have intalled UBBoverdrive in hopes that that might help but device/mouse menue does not appear to support mouse.
Is there a way to get this to work or should I just return it to the vendor?
Can anyone suggest a good CHEAP 3n button mouse for Mac?

The name of that mouse is deceiving. It is not a USB mouse it is a wireless mouse. Unfortunately without the proper OS X drivers for the USB/wireless adapter you won't be able to get that thing to work.
If you are looking for an inexpensive USB mouse, checkout the Kensington Mouse in a Box Optical.
Does your iBook have Bluetooth? If so take a look at the Kensington PilotMouse Mini Bluetooth Mouse. I have one of these and it works great.

I have lost my Silverfast scanning software since downloading Lion. Lion is proving a nightmare - particularly as I was originally told it would work with Silverfast. I also cannot use my Epson 2100 printer. Not a very pro ufgrade Apple. Anyone help?

Can not use Silverfast scanning technology or my Epson 2100 Colour Stylus printer since upgrading to Mac OS X Lion. I had been assured that Silverfast would work and had no idea the printer would become redundent! Not Good information from Apple!! Anyone out there help?

Hi, Peter;
The culprit is Silverfast.
The company went as far as telling owners and new customers back in March that their software would work with Lion ("buy Silverfast version 6.6 now, and get a free upgrade to Version 8 when it we release it in late August!"). Days after Lion came out, the German software maker issued a statement that their current version is NOT compatible with Lion (knocking all of their Mac customers out of the scanning business until the newer, functional Silverfast version is ready.)
On the company's owners-only discussion groups, Mac customers have expressed outrage that manufacturer Lasersoft was not clearer on this meltdown in the making. Users have either had to re-install Snow Leopard, stop scanning for the next several weeks, or buy, install and learn different scanning software.
Lasersoft has even "re-written history"; pulling earlier press coverage (which claimed their software would work with Lion) and "clarifying" that the Version 8 software (which they say will work with Lion) will be available for purchase sometime next month. The moderator has actually censored or deleted entries offering the name of rival VueSoft (which is Lion compatible), and has removed posts from dissatisfied customers.
Lasersoft discussion groups are amusingly Orwellian right now, with counter accusations hurled at customers who are just trying to get their software to work. Company spokesmen are issuing clumsily-worded taunts instead of apologies or simple damage control language. UPDATE: the company has now removed some of their own more uncaring responses to users, but there is still some funny reading there.
The whole episode begs the question of what Lasersoft was doing between spring and fall of this year when they should have been preparing a more seamless transition to Lion. New customers who purchased the pricey Silverfast software in March are doubly out of luck-- the “free upgrade” to Lion-compatible version 8 only applies to purchases made after June first.

Looking for a way to get my Product ID and Vendor ID so I can enable my Radium 49 USB MIDI keyboard to work with Labview 7

Looking for the Product ID and Vendor ID for my Radium 49 USB MIDI keyboard to work with Labview 7
Is there a tool to find out the Vendor ID and Product ID for a USB device?
Example: of what I'm looking for
The Product ID for National Instruments DAQPad-6020E is 0x12C0. The
USB vendor ID is 0x3923. This is a 16-bit hexadecimal number(1093)
(that is decimal 4243).
Thanks for all the fast responses this newsgroup RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!

How To Find The Vendor and Product ID for USB Devices?
Primary Software: Driver Software>>NI-VISA
Primary Software Version: 3.3.1
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A
Problem:
I want to make an NI-VISA driver that requires the vendor and product ID?
Solution:
There is a utility called USBView,
free from Windows, attached below, which you can use to view what is
connected to your computer's USB ports. It is necessary to load this
program and connect the USB device in development. Upon selecting the
device in USBView, one can then look on the right side of the
application window to obtain the Product ID and Vendor ID. This will
allow you to enter in the correct IDs when creating a driver .inf file
when using the VISA Driver Development Wizard. For more information
about how to use the VISA Driver Development Wizard see the related
links below.
Note: It is necessary to keep the hexadecimal
(0x####) format. Do not remove the "0x" hexadecimal format preceding
the ID number.

What USB speakerphones do work with mac?

I would like to find a USB speakerphone to work with MAC (really for google's Gizmo5 and/or skype). Not sure where to post this, let me know.
All the high end (around $110) USP speakerphones say they are for Microsoft Office Communicator. So, I talked to Polycom about their cx100, and they said it does not work with Mac.
What USB speakerphones do work with mac? Any recommendations?
thanks

The ClearOne Chat 50 works very well with mac (Gizmo5 and Skype). The box says Windows only, but if you read carefully there web site, they have mac installation software to download.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can install the latest version, iLife '11. It's available at the Mac App Store, but the versions available there aren't compatible with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, so you have to get iLife '11 on a DVD at eBay or Amazon > http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-VERSION/dp/B003XKRZES
After installing it, open  > Software Update, and install the most recent version for Snow Leopard

It should work (many, many people have it working fine) though Windows7 was officially released only 2 days ago and iTunes has not had an update since then.
