TOPIC

    The Apple USB Speakers included with the Power Mac G4 Cube computer should be connected to one of the USB ports on the computer or the monitor (if it has an Apple Display Connector).

DISCUSSION

    The Apple USB (Universal Serial Bus) Speakers included with the Power Mac G4 Cube computer require more power to operate than is provided by a typical USB port. The USB ports of the Power Mac G4 Cube computer, and the following monitors with Apple Display Connector (ADC) have been enhanced to provide additional power:
    • Apple Cinema Display (ADC)
    • Apple Studio Display 17 (ADC)
    • Apple Studio Display LCD (ADC)

    For this reason, you should only connect the speakers to one of the USB ports on the Power Mac G4 Cube computer, or monitor listed above. You should not connect them to the USB ports of any Apple keyboard, other Apple computer, or third-party USB device.

    Note: If you have more USB devices than available ports, a USB hub can be connected to one of the USB ports on the computer. The hub will provide additional USB ports. However, the Apple USB speakers must be connected to the computer or monitor.
