ThinkPad docking station speakers / PL connectivity

Hi,
I have T61 and docking station model 2505. I couldn't find PL connector for speakers: How can I connect speakers to the docking station and not (!) to my laptop? I would like to avoid the neccesary of connect / disconnect the speakers every time I undock / dock to the docking station.

Hi,
Is there any way to connect speakers to the Docking Station directly, and not via the laptop?
Sounds funny that I would need to connect / reconnect the PL plug every time I remove the laptop from the docking Station.
Thanks,
Uriel

I need a docking station that will connect a printer and speakers

I have a set of powered 4.1 speakers and a printer that I want to use on my Macbook Pro. Is there a docking station that will connect all these devices to my Macbook pro?

Search Apple's online store and Apple retailer websites. Also, do a Google & Bing search.

HT1665 Bluetooth docking station speakers not working when docked

I have a new docking station a Pioneer XW-BTS3-K which is certified by apple to work with my iPhone 4. The remote control and buttons on the docking station all work fine when my iPhone is docked and the phone charges. But iTunes will not play through the docking station speakers although the speakers work when connected through bluetooth.
The Pioneer website is not very helpfull as it has no information on which ios software the station is compatible with.
Is there something wrong with my iPhone?

it's unclear what you mean when you say itunes
itunes on ios is the store bit and the play music part is called just music
itunes on computers is both
if you dock an ios device the dock would likely be prepared to play music from the docked device
and stop computers play to it using bluetooth

TS1286 MY MUSIC WILL PLAY THROUGH THE IPOD BUT NOT THROUGH ANY DOCKING STATION SPEAKERS. IT USED TO, BUT JUST SUDDENLY STOPPED.

My music will play through my ipod speakers, but it won't work through docking station speakers. It used to but then just suddenly stopped. Can anyone help??

I just had this problem tonight and here is what worked: Go to Settings; General; Software Update; and update to the new iOS: 6.0.1. It worked for me, hope it works for you!

I need help. I need a KVM to switch between my Mac Pro and my IBM ThinkPad (docking station).

Best Buy (only local option) has only a VGA / USB from iogear that scroll lock doesn't work on the Mac and low and behold I'm a d.a. and didn't notice VGA, ie: want/need DVI.
I don't game on my Mac or do high-end video editing but don't want to step down the video quality too much.
Appreciate all of the forthcoming advice.

I guess I should have clarified and said "can you please share what you've used and been successful with"
Two that I have been considering are:
ConnectPRO
http://www.connectpro.com/prod_kvm_usb12plusDvi.html
IOGear
http://www.iogear.com/solutions/kvm/?view=displayDVI
If you do the Belkin KVM wizard, as soon as you reference a Mac, they only support VGA and I am not sure why. http://www.belkin.com/kvm/
Thanks for the effort.

Docking station + speakers iPod Shuffle compatible

Hi,
I want to buy an iPod shuffle and a docking station and speakers. There are loads that say they are iPod compatible but I have not found one that actually states iPod shuffle.
Do you know of one? or Do you know of an adaptor that I could use to get it to fit?
Thanks

This statement is just flat-out wrong. That's exactly what the Apple-supplied 'dock' provides: simultaneous connection of power (charging) and audio (playing) at the same time, via USB.
So you consider playing the iTunes playlists that MAY on the shuffle as playing via USB? You need to learn more about the way the shuffle works when attached to the dock. I thought the original poster was asking about the availability of a dock that provided audio out as well as USB connectivity...IF that's NOT what the OP wanted then there's nothing wrong with using the original shuffle dock as you suggest.

How do i get my iphone to play music through docking station speakers?

When I place my iPhone in my Bose docking station, it plays music through the iPhone's speakers. How do I get my iPhone to route music playing through the Bose's speakers? My Nano plays just fine in my docking station.

Did you check to see that shuffle is is turned off? To do this, while playing a song tap the cover art to reveal the additional controls if they are not already visible (see photo below). Then tap the shuffle button (bottom right) until it turns white (white is off).

USB 3 on Thinkpad docking station

I have a WD My Passport USB3 disk disk that runs fine directly on my T530 USB3 port. But if I connect it to my docking stations USB3 port it connects and disconnects all the time. is the a fix for this?

It could be a faulty docking station (or a problem with the design of the device). Is the problem consistent with all usb 3 ports? Have you tried other usb3 peripherals?
I think you should contact the nearest Lenovo service representative if you're still under warranty, or try another docking station with your T530 and your WD, maybe at a Lenovo dealer.

X 31 Thinkpad Docking Station

I have just acquired a docking station for my Thinkpad x31 which has an empty battery compartment. The part number for the docking ststion is 91P9024. Does anyone know what battery i need for this docking station?

the same battery you use on the actual X31, however do note that the battery compartment on the ultrabase or dock as you call it, doesn't have the ability to charge the battery.

HT4528 I pulled my iPhone out of the docking station/speakers and now the ring tones don't work. Anyone know a fix for this?

Does anyone know if there is a fix for iPhone 4S when you pull it out of the docking station and now the ring tones don't work -- it only vibrates.

Basic troubleshooting of the device is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried?
Do other sounds work?
Have you checked to see if the dock connector or headphone jack have debris in them?

Docking stations don't connect

new ipod touch doesn't play through and of my docking stations. It continues to play through its internal speaker when docked.
Anyone else had this problem?

Is the docking station on? And try to press the iPod harder.

What do the buttons on the Thinkpad docking station do?

So, I just got a docking station for my T-60 and noticed the cute buttons. Power, got that one. #2 to undock, two for two! But button #1? It would be nice if I could find a simple document somewhere. But nooooooo. Help?

Keyboard illumination. You probably won't notice the change, unless the ambient lighting is low.
