2.5mm Adapter

Hi,  I have seen a number of posts on the 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaper for 8100 but no solutions.  I am trying to play music through a car stereo which has a 3.5mm jack. I bought an adapter at radio shack and no sound came through, then one online and only one channel came through.  I'm sure this is a common issue.  The adapter has to be set up to contact left, right and ground on the blackberry and not the mic channel so I am thinking only blackberry has one? 
Thanks for your help in advance.

You should take the adapter back to Radio Shack because they sold you the wrong one. The one you need is this one

  • How can I use two mics with my dual XLR to 3.5mm adapter?

    Eveything I try to google on the subject just talks about creating an agregate device with USB mics. I don't have a USB mic but I do have two mics with a dual XLR to 3.5mm adapter that I use for my camera.
    I feel like their has to be a way to use them in Garageband but it's my first time using it and I'm clueless.

    Does your computer have a line-in? Then you could try to plug the 3.5 mm adaptor into it, though the level is probably not sufficient. And that would always put both mics on the same track. If you want actual 2-channel recording, you need an audio interface with two XLR inputs.

  • IPhone dock 30-pin connector to line-out 3.5mm adapter/cable?

    Hi folks,
    I'm looking for a compact adaptor or cable to go from my iPhone 30-pin connector to a 3.5mm cable (or 3.5mm plug). Wondering if there are any recommendations, as some pre-date the iPhone and thus prompt the iPhone to switch to airport mode...
    I've found:

    Did deeper research.  It's apparently true that phone call audio is not and cannot be routed to the "line out" of the iPhone.  I'm disappointed.  It appears to be a hardware design thing, as I've found no app that would enable this, and darned if I can think of a situation that would have this capability as a downside.

  • 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter for E71

    Hi
    I am at wits end with fnding a dongle type adapter for music. 2 ring, 3 ring..
    I bought a 90 degree 2 ring adapter from Tandy that did not work. I may need a 3 ring type. Is there a  3 ring type 90 degree adapter with a short wire (like a dongle) and the 3.5 m on the other end for earphone input in australia for sale? Isee lots of these in amazon but I'm surprise many users are having so much trouble finding correct adapters for the E71 inclusive of myself.
    Any help and guidae would be much appreciated.
    Rgds

    You need to search for Nokia AD-61. I have an E71X and use this adapter. I picked it up from Amazon.

  • Nokia 3110c - stereo via 3.5mm jack adapter?

    I want to play music from my 3110 Classic through my decent-quality earphones with a 3.5mm stereo jack. One post in this forum says you can use a 2.5mm-3.5mm adapter, but another says the Maplin N83FA and FA94C adapters only give mono output. Does anyone know of an adapter available in the UK that definitely works?

    Yes - also there is the AD-50... (http://www.mobilagency.cz/foto/male/hf48.jpg )
    This is a little less pretty but performs the same thing...

  • Is there a 3.5mm plug cable to separate the audio and mic?

    Then I can use is by the Ordinary headset

    well I'm actually the Ryan who's email is xxxx'd out. Guess they don't like showing people a way to save a few dollars on some car mounts for their ipod. Yet another reason why I don't have an ipod. Cripple the players and cripple the forums. Though I still bought my mom an ipod
    Anyway...after poking around, wouldn't an easy solution be to just buy the AV Composite cable, use the stereo RCA plugs for the input on the in dash radio (can buy a $3 RCA to 3.5mm adapter if needed) and use the USB side to charge via a USB car charger? Granted, it's not the nice hardwired solution (my prefrence), but for most who just want plug and play, it's a simple solution for line out sound quality and charging while in the car.
    The only downside is I don't see a cheap one anywhere. You'd think some third party company would've made one by now. They make everything else cheaper. But the cable would serve double duty if you needed it elsewhere. PLUS, if you had an indash LCD screen, you could use the video out on it as well. Screw the DVD player, just use your ipod video/touch/iphone as the video player in your car. Some indash players have video in as well.
    Regardless, you have options to get line out sound quality. If you don't need to charge, docking port av cables are about $6 on ebay. Just do a search of "ipod av composite cable". It'll come up along with the headphone jack ones.
    Another plus going the USB route is why not go that route with everything you have. You can hard wire in a usb hub, have it hidden behind the dash and just run a usb cable for your particular device to it. Much smaller than 12v outlets and you can charge as many cables you can fit into the hub. Almost everything has a USB cable for it nowadays.

    hi, this reply may be a bit late. however,i just got something to share.
    ive been using some unknown brand 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter and so far have no problems. what i meant by unknown is some cheaply made ones, doesnt even come in any packages. so i dun see why you could be facing problems with such adapters. it costs ard 8SGD (Singapore) here, which is equivalent to 5.6USD or 3.55 pounds.if you guys need help, i can willingly send over few brand new working adapters. u guys just need to pay for the product and of cos postage, how much? that i suggest you look up at the post office in ur area. i can also send a picture of them, if u wish, via email.
    i'm doing this out of goodwill, as i see the abundant supply of working adapters in every hardware stores here. send me a msg or reply to this post if u are keen.

  • WH-700, AD 52 adapter and Nokia E71...... help!

    Hi folks,
    I have had no end of trouble trying to get a headset I am happy with. finally on a recomendation frmo these boards bought an OEM WH-700...
    And I love it...
    One problem, I have an E71, which has a 2.5mm Nokia AV jack. Now the headset comes bundled with an AD 52 adapter. Trouble is this adapter sticks out horizontally from the phone, meaning whenever I walk it comes out. Most frustrating and it looks like it will bend and break.
    I also have an AD 50 adapter which does not come straight out but is a different design and headphones hit in nicely. But it is no a 4-pole so does not work with the headset.
    Is there a 4 pole nokia OEM 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter that is in the shape of the AD 50 but does what an AD 52 does?
    Help
    Ralph

    Hello there Actually I had the same problem with my Nokia 6120 Classic. Having searched market for a day finally I found (Nokia AD-56) and (Nokia AD-61) which can be connected directly to your phone with no adaptor. With them use an ordinary pair of headphones or (3.5 mm headset for Nokia AD-61). Google both (Nokia AD-56) and (Nokia AD-61) to see their images.

  • How do I connect Apple TV to external speakers and my TV?

    I just bought an Apple TV for my studio apartment and have it connected to my TV via HDMI, and use AirPlay to stream my music and videos. Video works great, but the my TV's internal speakers are low quality. So, I would like to have my audio come from external speakers (which I have not bought yet), for the following 2 scenarios:
    Listening to music via AirPlay, preferably without having to turn my TV on.
    Watching videos on my TV, with the audio coming through my external speakers rather than the TV speakers
    I see my Apple TV has an Optical Audio (Toslink) port, but the salesperson at the nearby electronics store said none of their speakers have Toslink cables, only 3.5 mm (or USB). The only solution I found is an AV receiver box that has optical input but costs hundreds of dollars. I am looking for something cheaper and am willing to settle for "pretty good" sound quality.
    Is there another way to get this to work?
    This article recommends using a digital audio converter (DAC) to connect the Apple TV to a stereo amplifier. This seems like it would satisfy scenarios (1) and (2) above.
    Also, I found this "Toslink to 3.5 mm adapter" for a few bucks; could I just plug that into my Apple TV and then connect it to any speakers (like computer speakers) with 3.5mm input?
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Rex,
    Since the toslink is optical, the 3.5mm adapter will not work for you as it is only ment as a conversion to a mini-toslink cable. Your first option of using the DAC, is in my opinion the best and perhaps only way to get audio out without going to a fancy amp or tuner first.
    One option that I'm considering is the Bose Solo TV sound system. It might set you back about 4-Grant's, but I generally enjoy the sound of bose for most music/tv/movie purposes; and it has a direct optical audio input that you can run either from your tv or your ATV. Whatever audio you're sending to your TV via the HDMI, should go to these speakers through your HDTV's toslink output with equal digital clarity.
    I've read a few other posts on the apple discussion forum which lead me to believe that the optical output of the ATV might not work so well after the 5.2 update... so whatever I do, it won't be JUST for use with the ATV.

  • Dvi to hdmi with sound support

    I was looking for a way to watch movies from my MBP (mid-2011 13") on a HD LCD TV, and I found an HDMI port in the back of the TV. I went to the Apple store and picked up a Kanex "Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Cable (with sound support)." The picture looks great, but there's no sound. Is there a switch I need to activate somewhere that turns on the sound for the DVI port? Do I need to set anything on the TV?

    Try going to System Preferences > Sound and chose your TV as an output source. Also, go into Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup and in the left side of the window chose the output source. If these don't work then you may have a problem with your TV, it may not support audio from a HDMI cable. In that case you could use a Digital Optical Cable (TOSlink) with a 3.5mm adapter for the headphone jack of your Mac and plug that into your TV (if it has a Optical Output).

  • Question about Bluetooth & Headphones to avoid damaging the miniport!?

    Well, I finally experienced the same thing a lot of others have already ... the left side audio failed completely on my Touch, so I had to go return it and have it replaced. Luckily, the folks at Best Buy were nice enough to just swap it out and give me a new one, even though I was outside of my 30-day return policy. I have a service plan there, but I didn't want to go without my Touch while they replaced it elsewhere and sent me a refurbished device which probably wouldn't be in the same condition I keep my own in (immaculate -- 40+ days I've used it for 3+ hours a day, and there is hardly a scratch on the stainless steel, and the screen is flawless ... or was).
    So now I have a new Touch, but I want to prevent this from happening again. Personally, I think the mini-port on the Touch, while it doesn't have the same problem as those of the iPhones, it has a design problem as well. But I don't want this thread to end up being a discussion of whether there is a design issue or not, but rather I need some help to find an accessory to fit my specific needs.
    What I am looking for is either, a website actually selling [this product|http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/28/princeton-technologys-bluetooth-head phone-adapter/|Visit www.podtropolis.com today!] to customers in the U.S. ... or a product nearly like it.
    I don't even need the iPod-Bluetooth transmitter, as those are VERY common. What I need is the other part, the receiver with a miniport Audio-Out (headphone jack). I don't even need the capabilities of the remote. Especially since this particular device may not even WORK with the iPod Touch. I'm hoping the audio-out features would, but I could care less if the remote-control did.
    Basically, I'm reaching out in desperation with a severe headache from too many google searches with little to show for it ... I need help finding a Bluetooth headphone Audio-Out receiver.
    And before you ask why I don't just buy a pair of bluetooth headphones, my reason is this ... bluetooth headphones can't be used wired when the battery dies, or to save battery when there's little chance you're going to drop the iPod and bend the miniport connection inside. With this, I can use the headphones I already have, I like, and still easily have the capability of switching to wired if I NEED to.
    This is the only way I can think of to truly prevent the overuse of the Touch's mini-port and the wear & tear that comes from it.
    Please, if you have any suggestions, please provide at least a semi-accurate device name and manufacturer, or, preferably, a link to a site in English with an online store!
    Thanks!

    Chris ... sometimes I wonder how I could LIVE WITHOUT YOU! You're an iPod GOD!
    You pointed me in the right direction ... I found it sold at Beach Audio, with JUST the receiver, so now I can buy my preferred iPod BT transmitter as well! Plus this device is useful for other things:

  • External microphone won't work on Macbook Pro

    My external microphone won't work on my Macbook Pro.
    My mic is an SE2200 A, and I'm pluggin that into a Behringer Eurorack UB802 (with Phantom power). This is then connected to a 1/4 inch to 3.5mm adapter so I can plug it into my Macbook Pro.
    If I plug this directly into my Macbook Pro into the headphone socket (which I've been told doubles up as a mic socket), and go to Settings -> Sound -> Input, the mic does not appear on screen at all.
    If I plug it into a 3.5mm to USB adapter, and plug it into a USB port on my mac, then the USB PnP Sound Device appears on the Settings -> Sound -> Input, but no sound is picked up.
    Could any suggest why this isn't working?
    thanks

    You have to use a cable that will break out the 3.5 mm TRRS jack into mic, L, and R.
    I haven't found the right wiring yet and the cables I have tried don't seem to work.
    See this post: What is the wiring digram on the MacBook Pro 3.5 mm TRRS jack?

  • What cables do I need to hook up iMac i7 to digital audio receiver.

    Just bought a new iMac Quad i7 and expect delivery in two weeks. I would like to hook it up to my audio receiver so I can watch DVDs with full 5.1 Digital Surround. The receiver has optical/digital inputs.
    The guys at the Apple store seemed clueless.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Hello artandink
    You will need a 3.5mm Toslink Adapter or a Toslink cable with a 3.5mm end to plug into the iMac's Audio Output Port.
    The Toslink cable from the Apple Store has a 3.5mm Adapter to Toslink included:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/TL955LL/A
    The one from OWC already has a 3.5mm on one end for the iMac's:

    Some do not and you'll have to order the 3.5mm Adapter separately:

  • Does a 3.5 mm jack work with an i-pod touch

    I  have headphones with a 6.3 mm jack.I use a 3.5mm adapter to use with my mac air. i just bought an i-pod touch and i get no sound when i connect in the same manner.Works perfectly with mac air.Do i need a different jack for my i-pod touch?

    _ Make sure the plug is fully inserted int he jack
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
