When will USB 3.0 be truly backwards compatible with USB 2.0 audio interfaces?

hello
I own a U46DJ mkII audio interface. I use the interface for music production, particularly recording vocals.
The device performs well on my windows laptop, I can record clean vocals with no artifacts. On the macbook pro however, the incoming audio signal is full of digital pops and clicks.
After spending a few days searching for solutions on google I narrowed it down to the USB 3.0 ports on the new macbook pro.
Lots of people with with all different brands of audio interface are experiencing problems while connecting them to USB 3.0 ports.
Here is an article on the topic: http://createdigitalmusic.com/2012/06/usb-3-0-backwards-compatible-in-theory-but -some-audio-drivers-arent-cooperating/
So, when will USB 3 be truly backwards compatible with our USB 2 devices?

Tuesday. That's what I heard.
Perhaps the driver is the problem. Check with the interface manufacturer.
I have a Focusrite USB interface that sounds great but Pro Tools and Logic kept crashing when I used it. I went back and forth with Focusrite, they had several beta drivers which they sent me, none of which fixed the problem. Turns out the interface works better without the driver from the manufacturer.
I find it hard to blame Apple for this. It's not like they didn't have the ML beta out for a long time for all the device manufacturers to test their drivers and their hardware with. Apple can't keep tabs on every third party developer on the planet and design their software and hardware to keep all of them happy.
If you want to give Apple some feedback you can do it here: Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback

When will you get a norton tool bar compatible with this? I like to use my identity safe and it doesnt work with this version

on my other version of firefox it gives me a tool bar with my norton stuff and one to access my yahoo page and mail. I would use this alot more if I could get that here. instead I get error messages every time I start up

You are talking about Norton Safe Web, right? Well you have a way -
Download Add-on Compatibility Reporter
(https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/)
and restart Firefox. Restart Firefox again and Norton Safe Web should be enabled.

Is The iPod Touch Backward Compatible With USB 1.1 Connections?

Hi. I intend to get the iPod Touch soon. But, before I make the leap, I'd like to know whether the iPod Touch is backward compatible with my older USB 1.1 connections. Any help will be appreciated here. Thank you.

Hello Castlegard,
As mentioned, the Minimum System Requirements for the iPod Touch does specify USB 2.0, see the requirements here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1323
While it is theoretically possible to sync over a USB 1.1 connection, your mileage may vary. Consider that USB 1.1 has a transfer rate of 12Mbit/sec, where USB 2.0 is 480Mbit/sec, so USB 2.0 is basically 40x faster. Transferring small files may succeed, but when you try to get iTunes to update or restore an iPod Touch, it will be trying to push a 300MB file (approximately) through a 12Mbit pipe. Trying to do updates or restore via USB 1.1 will often result in iTunes timing out before the process is complete.
If I were to try to sync a 1.5GB movie over a USB 1.1 connection, I could probably go to downtown Sydney and have a nice dinner and attend a concert at the Sydney Opera House and still get back before the sync was complete. BTW, I live in California...
If your computer is a desktop tower, upgrading to USB 2.0 is a relatively inexpensive proposition. If you are not a handy person with a phillips screwdriver or electical devices, most computer dealers or resellers will install for a nominal fee.

When are you going to make GOOGLE TOOLBAR compatible with the latest version of firefox, i will not update to version 8 until its compatible

Question
When are you going to make GOOGLE TOOLBAR compatible with the latest version of firefox, i will not update to version 8 until its compatible

It's not going to happen. Google announced withdrawal of their Google Toolbar.
Using Google Toolbar features without toolbars - MozillaZine Knowledge Base
:http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_Google_Toolbar_features_without_toolbars
The Google Toolbar will not be updated for Firefox 5 or later Firefox versions. ([http://googletoolbarhelp.blogspot.com/2011/07/update-on-google-toolbar-for-firefox.html reference]) Google finally decided that their [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions problematic extension] is beyond repair for the little benefit added for Firefox users. Google as with other browsers is eliminating or making toolbars less accessible.
Consider the features that you are using and see if you can match up features from the list created by Google and by Firefox users.

CC Apps NOT Backward compatible with Master Collection 6.0...WHY NOT?!!!!

This is just horse doodoo. Adobe, you've already got us hooked and paying out the nose, so WHY do I have to save all of my files in an OLDER version (InDesign, for instance) when I'm working on them in Creative Cloud just so I can be able to open them with my MasterCollection6 I paid $3000+ for?
I should NEVER see the message: "Cannot save because file was created with a newer version Creative Cloud..." when I am working with your latest NON-MONTHLY CS6 Master Collection Apps. It is a pain in the a$$ and slows down our workflow.
PLEASE, either give your loyal Master Collection 6 customers updates that make our Apps compatible with Creative Cloud, or start making Creative Cloud Apps backward compatible with our 6.xx version!
Stop trying to hold us hostage with your plans to monthly-revenue everything we already paid thousands for, please!
Sincerely pisT,

New features in new software does sometimes mean that new files do not open in old software
Microsoft also does this... the new DOCX documents will not open in the old Word 97 (and, in fact, I had to buy MS Office 2003 because MS Office 97 would not even install and run on Windows 7)

XCelsius 2008 is not backward compatible with ver 4.5

Post Author: Joseph
CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
I tried opening a project that was done with ver 4.5 but it just said that "Crystal Xcelsius is unable to load this file. This file may be corrupt or may have features that cannot be supported by this version of Crystal Xcelsius." So i guess I probably have to recreate the project in the 2008 version to take advantage of the new features available. So I imported the excel datasheet used in the old project to a new project in Xcelsius 2008 and tried recreating the objects from scratch. I had started with an accordion menu and two list boxes and then I decided to export to swf to test. However, the result was disappointing. I could only see the two list boxes but not the accordion menu. There was a message saying "Initializing..." that stayed. Does this mean I have to recreate the excel data from scratch as well?

X2008 is backward compatible with CX4.5. But Jim is correct. There is a bug in X2008 which prevents it from opening some 4.5 models by double-clicking on the filename. They can be opened from the File > Open menu. This only affects opening the model.Due to the many changes between CX4.5 and X2008, the migration of old CX4.5 models is not clean. Differences will be seen. Most are cosmetic affecting only the look of the model. But some tidy up, color changes and re-alignment work must be done. There was no way to gain the benefits of X2008 and still keep CX4.5 models unchanged.Andy

Is NI-DAQmx 8.0 backward compatible with Lab View 7.1?

Is NI-DAQmx 8.0 backward compatible with Lab View 7.1?

YES it is but when you install it you must select support for LV 7.1 and 7.1 must be installed before you install daqmx 8.0.

I have a 500 GB hard drive; that's how I've avoided the issue, to date. But you consider a 2000 shot bat mitzvah a small shoot, so I have know problem acknowledging you shoot a lot more than I do.
The key point about Aperture, to date, is that it doesn't add ANY data to original RAW files, period. Everything it appears to do -- everything is just a set of modifications to the master. This applies to sharpening, this applies to shadows and highlights, this applies to cropping... and it applies to metadata.
As for archival, etc., ... if you're archiving outside of Aperture... why not just use multiple Aperture libraries? It's a bit inconvenient (to the extent that it takes 15 seconds to change the setting and re-launch), but it gets around the problem. I mean, if you're archiving external to Aperture in original RAW format, you're not only "losing" the metadata... you're losing every single change you've made to the file. Truly, no editing functionality of anything would you be using in this scenario.

Headstart cg$errors backward compatible with Designer 9i cg$errors

Is the Headstart cg$errors package backward compatible with the Designer 9i cg$errors package?
I have a user who runs two Designer generated applications, one generated with (e.g. APPHST) and one generated without Headstart (e.g. APPDSG).
The user has grant execute on the Headstart ht65_own.cg$errors and is referencing this ht65_own.cg$errors through a private synonym.
The user also has grant execute on the Designer appdsg_own.cg$errors and is referencing this appdsg_own.cg$errors through a public synonym.
I'm convinced this wil work for the Headstart generated application, but will it work for the other application (APPDSG)?
Any feedback will be appreciated.
Regards,
Rob Kayzer

Your fix is correct. (It is exactly the same as the fix we made.)
We are getting ready to offer a Supplement option for Headstart 6i. For a small subscription fee (15%), you will get access to a portal with all of the current bug fixes and enhancements as well as hints and tips that have come in from the field. We will make an announcement on this discussion forum as soon as that option is available (hopefully in the next 1-2 weeks).

The Bluetooth low energy protocol is not backward compatible with classic Bluetooth protocol. My iPhone 4s can not find my sonny in-dash player. However my iPhone 3GS does it. Very disappointed with this. Any idea how it can be fixed???

Hello,
You are correct, Blue tooth low engergy, BTLE.(only) devices are not backward compatible with Classic bluetooth and cannot connect.
However the Apple 4S and above have Bluetooth 4.0 support.. Hardware wise it has bothClassic Bluetooth, like the 3GS, as well as Bluetooth Low Energy. There is no good reason why your 4s cannot communicate to your Sony in-dash player using the Classic bluetooth that resides in the 4S.
I know that this does not answer the why it does not work, but it should work. Do you have to somehow re-pair the new phone up to the player? Not knowing the model of the Sony it is hard to investigate.
And I hate to ask but are you sure that the Bluetooth radio is on in the phone?

Captivate 2 backwards compatible with 1?

Is Captivate 2 backwards compatible with Captivate 1?
For example, would it be just the new features that would be
disabled if I opened a Captivate 2 file in Captivate 1 such as
scenarios, or would the whole file be unopenable.
Also, how does the import work if I'm bringing a file in from
Captivate 1? Do I just open it or would I need to rework anything?
Also in Captivate 1, I've had to hand-write special htm files
for the Active X problem. Are these sorted out in Captivate 2?
I'm ready to release some training and I'm wondering if I
should upgrade it before it goes out, e.g. to add some scenarios.
But if it requires too much rework, I don't have the time right
now.
Thanks,
Kim

Hi Kim
For discussion about backwards compatibility,
Click
here
Yes, I do believe they have addressed the special coding
required to handle the "click to activate this control" message we
now see. So you shouldn't need to do anything special with respect
to this issue.
Cheers... Rick

Will Address Book 5.0.3 be compatible with OS 10.7.5 or should I upgrade it before I put OS 10.7.5 on my iMac

Will Address Book 5.0.3 be compatible with OS 10.7.5 or should I upgrade it to another version before I put OS 10.7.5 on my iMac? Or will I need to buy a subsequent version of Address Book 5.0.3, and if so, how would I transfer what's in my current Address Book (5.0.3) to the new one? Thanks.

Thanks much for your reply!
Would rather not upgrade to Lion, but need to in order to do taxes this year.
Would rather not upgrade further than Lion because am afraid many of my software programs will have to be upgraded or not be usable in Lion.
So are you saying my Pages 3.0.3, iPhoto 7.1.5, and iDVD 7.1.2 that I already have on my iMac will no longer work after I upgrade to Lion?

Is a PCI-488.2-1M card backwards compatible with the 488-1975 standard?

Is a PCI-488.2-1M card backwards compatible with the 488-1975 standard?

IEEE 488-1975 is one of the early revisions of the IEEE 488.1 stardard, other revisions include 488-1978 and 488.1-1987.
Because the original IEEE 488 document contained no guidelines for preferred syntax and format conventions, work continued on the specification to enhance system compatibility and configurability among test systems. This work resulted in a supplement standard, IEEE 488.2.
So, both 488.1 and 488.2 support 488-1975
I checked the link and it is fine, make sure you have the right web browser settings.
