Find $T^*(x,y)$ with the given inner product

Let $T:mathbb{C}^2 to mathbb{C}^2$ be a inner product space, $T(x,y)=(2ix+y, -x-iy)$ and the inner product $<(x_1, x_2), (y_1, y_2)>=4x_1overline{y_1}+9x_2overline{y_2}$.
Find $T^*(x,y)$
I found out that the canonical basis $C=left {(1,0), (0,1) right }$ isn't orthonormal (but orthogonal) for the given inner product, so I orthonormalized it and got $C'= left {(1/2,0), (0,1/3) right }$.
Then I used the definition for adjoint transformations:
$<T^*(1/2, 0), (x,y)>=<(1/2,0), T(x,y)>$
$<(1/2, 0), (2ix+y, -x-iy)>=-4ix+2y$
$<T^*(0, 1/3), (x,y)>=<(0, 1/3), T(x,y)>$
$<(0, 1/3), (2ix+y, -x-iy)>=-3x-3iy$
So $T^*(x,y)=(-4ix+2y, -3x-3iy)$, but the correct answer is $T^*(x,y)=(-2ix-9/4y, 4/9x+iy)$.
What am I doing wrong?

$<(0, 1/3), (2ix+y, -x-iy)>=-3x-3iy$
So $T^*(x,y)=(-4ix+2y, -3x-3iy)$, but the correct answer is $T^*(x,y)=(-2ix-9/4y, 4/9x+iy)$.

I would use $T^*(x,y) = langle T^*(x,y), (1/2,0) rangle (1/2,0) + langle T^*(x,y), (0,1/3) rangle (0, 1/3)$.

In your original question, how are you getting from the calculations of $langle T^*(1/2, 0), (x,y) rangle$ and $langle T^*(0, 1/3), (x,y) rangle$ (which should be $-4i bar x + 2 bar y$ and $-3 bar x - 3i bar y$ by the way) to a value for $T^*(x,y)$? I don't see the connection at all. At most, you could read off what $T^*(1/2,0)$ and $T^*(0,1/3)$ would be, and then say $T^*(x,y) = 2x T^*(1/2,0) + 3y T^*(0,1/3)$.

Ok, I get what you're saying, but now I have $T^*(x,y)=2x(-4i, -3)+3y(1, -3i)=(-8ix+3y, -6x-9iy)$? What am I doing wrong?

If $langle T^*(1/2, 0), (x,y) rangle = -4i bar x + 2 bar y = 4 (-i) bar x + 9 (frac{2}{9}) bar y = langle (-i, frac{2}{9}), (x,y) rangle$ for all $x,yin mathbb{C}$ then that would mean you must have $T^*(1/2, 0) = (-i, frac{2}{9})$...
