A USB cable will work with any device?

Title: USB cable original

Hello.

Let's say that a SCART is not equipped with a USB cable.

Is a 'universal' USB cable to work with "any" device USB or different types of devices have different types/forms of USB cables?

Thank you.

USB is pretty universal.  The flat rectangular plug that goes in your computer is known as a 'Type A '.  The square plug that usually goes into a printer is a "Type B".  There are also small connectors (Mini-A, Mini-B, Micro-AB, and Micro-B).

<>http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Connector_types >

Generally, if you find a cable with the appropriate connectors, this will work.  If the device to which you are connecting does not fall into a general 'category' (e.g. mass storage devices), then the driver software may be necessary at the end of the computer.

  • The new application (Swift Playgrounds) will work with different devices?

    I have a MacBook Pro OS X EL Capitan v10.11.6 (2015) 13.3 in. retina display i5 2.7 GHz, iPod touch iOS 9.3.2 5th gen 16 GB and an iPod touch 4th generation 8 GB iOS 6.1.3.

    What I want to know is, will be the new app work, playgrounds of Swift, on my iPod touch 5th generation and my MacBook Pro? I'm homeschooled and I pursue a technical career with coding or design of Apple products (I hope). I do my school on my Mac and I want to use this app on my Mac. I don't have an iPad that is the Unit wished to use the application with. So, I'll be very happy if this application will host the Mac App Store!

    Lol playgrounds of SWIFT is only available for iPad. There are currently no Mac version or iPod.

  • Why USB is extended keyboard needing an extension to work with any new imac?

    I have an imac 2013 end running the most recent El Capitan. My brand new extended USB keyboard stopped working with the computer. Genius Bar had no idea what was going on so they replaced the new keyboard with another new keyboard. I did LANDAU restarts with no positive effect. I took the computer and we couldn't reproduce the problem restart and shutdown and reboot... so they did a reformat on the computer, reinstall the operating system and the computer has been wiped clean. Home and after 3-4 weeks the keyboard problem was again does not. So, I found this thread... Thank you. New USB keyboards that you buy now have a short extension. I threw this side did not know why he was there... I got it all the time. The Genius Bar only did me not know I needed. I thought it was to plug OTHER THINGS and not for the keyboard... so I feel stupid. Why this problem with the extension? Why Apple people ignored it tell me? Why Apple Care on the phone asked me on the extension? Also, why is the communication within the company to the customer so badly on this issue? This computer was very expensive like $ 3,000 and I expect better communicate and knowledge of this problem which is apparently more crawling.

    FWIW, Apple isn't here. This is a user to user forum. Apple can do here... http://www.Apple.com/feedback/

    I can hazard a guess why the keyboard works best with the extension. It can be without it, the cable is too short and shoot the connection enough to disconnect. It's just a guess.

  • T520 will not use any device DVD

    People,

    I was going to do a backup, when I noticed that the DVD player was no longer under my computer.

    I when in Device Manager, where he showed with a yellow X... I tried to update the device driver, it said that I had the right device. I've done many other things - nothing has worked.

    I really wanted to get the backup made, so I took my portable DVD player/burner and plugged. The laptop computer found a loaded device OK... but it does not appear in my computer. I had the same problem as the DVD drive internal.

    Then I got a USB drive external Passport, connected to the same USB port, no problems... He mounted the disk and I made the backup.

    My T520 will not use any device DVD... ideas?

  • HP Pavilion HPE h8-1214: GPU EVGA GTX 750TI will work with my HPE h8-1214

    Hello. I plan to update my graphics card soon. Accoring to this, I have a card Mother Angelica. I read another post here of a user having a h8-1230 with a card Mother Angelica Revision2 , who said the EVGA GTX 750TI was inconsistent with this Council, and that he should look for a version of the 750TI MSI instead.

    I was wondering if the same applies to my PC because my model is older that the other user has been. I prefer to use the EVGA GPU version, as it is cheaper than the MSI one, but I need to know if it will work with my computer. If not, will the labour card ASUS model, or should it be MSI? The map I intend to buy is present (EVGA) or this (ASUS).

    In addition to this, does anyone know if the stock fans and 300W power supply provided with this computer would be appropriate for the new card, or not? I'm looking forward already pass the power supply, but I don't know for the fans. If I were to upgrade the PSU, 430W would be enough, or should I go with 500W? Thank you.

    If anyone in the future who might wonder, I had this GPU works on my computer, but I had to buy a specific version of the map and the way I got it to work was pretty weird.

    You need to buy this version MSI of the card, because the card itself has a switch on to change the UEFI to Jack supported BIOS Legacy. As far as I know, other versions of this card are UEFI only, and this computer does not support UEFI, so he needs a card that can run in the traditional way. It may look like a fit snug in the case, but it does not seem to cause problems and it cools very well with fans.

    I also changed to a block of power SUPPLY Corsair 430W, which seems more than enough for the system, even with the card to load max. You could go to a higher power, if you consider the upgrade of several pieces, or reuse the power supply in a more powerful system later. I have not upgraded fans in the computer and do not seem to have cooling problems.

    Now to make it work...

    I had some questions:

    When I first turned on the computer, it froze on the screen of the POST (the first screen with the HP logo). It would allow me to get into the BIOS, and it would beep 4 times (with long breaks between the two), before finally to a black screen with a cursor blinking and just stay there.

    What finally got it to work:

    I disconnected all the instructors of the map (cables VGA, DVI or HDMI), and then I turned on the computer. Without any monitor plugged, the computer should beep 6 times (the power button LED flashing with it), then the power led turns off. The LED went off as soon as I plugged my monitor into the computer (in my case, I used a VGA cord).

    For the first few seconds, the screen remained blank and does not save a connection. The computer is beeping intermittently for a while, then after about a minute my detected monitor suddenly a signal, and the screen displays the Windows splash screen. I was able to boot into Windows, all right, even if the resolution of the screen will be a little goofy, until you install the drivers.

    I jumped in the driver installation CD, and once it finished installing, I restarted the computer. Now, when it restarted, I had to do the same procedure I mentioned above so that he could start again. Now that the drivers are installed, I don't know if I'll have to do this procedure everytime I restart the computer (don't have not shut down since then), but since I rarely shut down my computer, it's worth it to me.

    Hope this helps someone else, because I know that I spent 10 hours searching for ideas before discovering this solution myself.

    Now that it is running, I have problems and I have run several graphics intensive games on it without any problem with cooling or power draw. It is very quiet, too. Even with a game running on high quality graphics, I can barely hear the fans when there is no other sound in the room.

  • DASYLab 5.6 will work with one nor 9171

    I have a NI USB 9171 a universal module with an older version of DASYE Lab 5.6, I have not yet loaded the software. But I was owndering if the Dasylab will work with automation of the measurement? I installed the MY LabView Signal Express, it is just too much and I want to use something more user friendly

    Thank you

    You ask if 15 years old software will work with a new device of NOR?

    Not very likely.

    First of all, the supported operating system is very different - V5.6 only was not supported with XP, Vista, Windows 7 or 8 (they didn't exist!).

    V5.63

    • Windows 95

    • Windows 98

    • Windows ME

    • Windows NT

    • Windows 2000

    You can upgrade your DASYLab V5.6 V13 and get full current operating system of assistance and full device support OR.

  • A USB-6210 will work on USB 1.1?

    Quick question...

    A USB-6210 will work OK only with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 ports?

    I am considering buying one of these, and there is a small chance I might need to use it on an old computer that only has USB 1.1 ports.

    I only need 16 channels of analog input with a sampling rate around 1 kHz, without input/output digital or counter.

    Hello, MIG,.

    I hope you are well today!  In fact, you are able to use our devices for acquisition of data USB 2.0, USB 1.1, but with the decrease in speed.  Please see this link here for more information on styling.

    Thanks MIG!
