Connecting case mic plugs to the Audigy 2
Ok, I have an Audigy 2 ZS. I want to get one of those little 3.5 bays for the front of my rig. the kind with the USB plugs and the firewire and a mic/headphones plug in 'em. I know I can hook the firewire and USB up, but I hate to have the 2 mini plugs there if theyre not functional so my question is: is there any way to hook them into my audigy? Wiring it out the back is unacceptable.. RIGGED BAD! But if you can do clever things with all those jumpers/pins/whatevers sticking out of the audigy to enable functionality to a mic/headphone plug in the front of the case thatd be great. any help is much appreciated.Message Edited by padrescout on 0-8-2004 06:53 PM
hey dude. I emailed cust. servicve about it and they say theoretically you can, and refered me to the pinouts for a regular audigy. I say use those a guideand it can probly be done.

I can connect the mic wire to the sound card(creative sound blaster audigy 5.)?but i dont have another exit for my headphones wire, so i can talk but i cant hear anything in the headphones - the sound is coming only from the speakers.is there anyway do make the sound go bothways, to the headphones and to the speakers?i tried to connect the headphones to the motherboard soundcard but it didnt have much use....And are there any extension cables so i can extend my headphone wire and connect it to the speaker headphone exit's?Thanks for your attention people.Looking forward to your replies.
xeckuc,
Maybe you can try to get a stereo splitter adaptor to share the audio output with your speaker.

Connecting Case Microphone/Headphone Jacks To The Sound Blas
I just got a new computer with a Foxconn TLA-776 case that has microphone/headphone jacks on the front. There are 7 seperate plugs that come from these jacks. Ground, Right Out, Right Return, Left Out, Left Return, Mic Power, and Mic In. I tried plugging these into the white connector on the card with 0 pins, but they didn't fit correctly. Is there somewhere else these connectors are supposed to plug into on the card? They were originally plugged into the motherboard's onboard sound.

You didn't mention which card you have there but as an example, this is for Audigy 2 Zs. Arrangement for pins may vary between different models of cards. For example on Audigy 2 (SB0244) -->
- Analog Ground
2 - Analog Headphone Out Left
3 - Analog Headphone Out Right
4 - Audio Backpanel Mute -- short to ground to mute the backpanel (when headphones are plugged in)
... (i.e. pins 3 and 4 were swapped vs. A2Zs arrangement)
Didn't connect the mic.
Here is another link covering subject (st link seem not to work right now.

Conections to Audigy 2ZS for built-in case Mic and Headphon
Is ther a pinout for any place on the Audigy 2 ZS for me to connect my built-in case connectors so I can enable the Mic and Phones connectors? The cable that goes from the connectors to the mobo right now (the mobo has onboard audio) are individually labeled for channel, grd, etc. They are individual connectors and go on the really small pins typical to many of the conectors on the sound card. I disabled the onboard audio of course, but the connectors were likewise disconnected at the same time. Any help would be greatly appreciated
A way to do this with known, documented signals is to mount two stereo minijacks to a slot cover to bring the front connectors to the rear. Then use short splitters and cables to connect the line out and mic to the front.
Here's also an old post made to CL's decommissioned old-style usenet server. There is at least one signal discrepancy to be concerned about in this description:

Connecting the Audigy 2 to a home theater sys
I've seen a lot of posts on this subject, but have seen a number of different answers. Hopefully I can get a definiti've answer...
I have an Audigy 2 ZS card (ordered as part of a Dell E50) in my PC and want to connect it to my home theater system. The home theater system has both analog, digital coax, and digital optical inputs. I want to get the best possible sound quality coming out of the PC to play music, thus I would like to have a digital connection between the PC and receiver.
The question I have is specifically what type of connector do I need to make this digital connection. I have seen people mention using a regular mini-plug to RCA connector, but didn't really say whether that got a digital signal or not.
I've looked on the Creative web site a bit, and saw some cables, but didn't know for sure which one was the right one. Please advise specifically what kind of cable I should get for this.
Thanks.You will have to ask the store if they have a 3.5mm minijack to RCA cable. Somewhere within the Getting Started program of the Audigy 2 ZS Sound card they have a section which shows you illustrations on how to connect your sound card to different setu
ps.
The digital connection will give you the purest stereo signal for your music, but you will not get surround sound unless you are listening to a surround sound?digital feed which the Home Cinema Recei'ver can understand (i.e. Dolby Digital, DTS, or regular PCM). This means that unelss you are listening to DVD Videos?with Dolby Digital or DTS soundtracks, you will only get stereo sound out the speakers, no multi channel EAX, no DVD Audio or CMSS either. Best thing to do is to connect the sound card to the Home theater system using Analog Mutlichannel input. Get 3 3.5mm to 2 Phono Cables. Plug each 3.5mm end into Line out ,2 and 3 on the back of the sound card. At the other end of the cable, match the 2 phono plugs?to the respecti've sockets on the home cinema amp. For example Line out is the front left and right speaker so just match white with Front Left and red with Front Right. Line out 2 - white goes to Rear/Surround Left and Red goes to Rear/Surround Right, irrespecti've of the colour coding on your amp.
Line out 3 - white goes to Center, red goes to Subwoofer, irrespecti've of the colour?coding again?- am not too sure on this one so be ready to reverse the connections if the speaker test comes out wrong or the "Front Center" voice booms out of your subwoofer!?By connecting it through multi channel analog input, the sound card will do all the decoding, so you can enjoy CMSS, EAX, Neo:6 and any other multi channel pleasure that the Sound Card provides in all its glory. The digital connection will provide purer sound but NOT surround sound unless you invoke a multi channel source such as a Dolby Digital or DTS?DVD, this is of course assuming you have set up the DVD software to correctly channel the sound to the SPDIF out and then set the sound card to passthrough SPDIF signals through digital out!?Good luck and hope that hel

I use GarageBand 09 to record voice overs via the Podcasting then Female Narrator Noisy utility. I have a good quality external mic plugged in. I keep getting an intermittent clicking sound on the audio track. It's not the metronome as that is turned off. I have to edit out the clicking after recording. I can see the spikes on the waveline. Any ideas how I can prevent this happening?
Hi again and thanks so much for replying.
The 'mic jack' on the old mic is both wide and large, measuring about an inch and a quarter from the base (where it comes out of the black encasing) to the edge of the tip (sort of cone shaped). As I can't plug this in directly to any port in the back of the Mac, I thought it might be possible to to buy some sort of adapter so that I could plug in the jack at one end, with a USB connector at the other end to go straight into the Mac. But I see from your comment that you are suggesting a smaller jack itself (i.e., large size jack to small size jack and then plug in to the small round port, instead of jack to USB port)?
At the Mac shop I bought a USB adapter to connect up a second monitor (screen). I've just dug out the package and it's called a mini display port to VGA adapter. But back to the mic issue, I don't want to use the old mic really, I'm just trying to eliminate whether or not my usual mic, or its USB cable, is at fault and causing the clicking.
I looked on Amazon for a suitable adapter but there was mention of these little gadgets having a sound card. As the Mac obviously has its own internal sound card, I couldn't see the point of another (exernal) one, unless it was actually required to convert the sound from input to output (playback) or something. One review said sound quality was lost but the person had a problem with his speakers, not a ticking sound while playing back recordings - which is obviously my problem.
I do have a headset that I used to use for Skype. It has a pink and a green jack. I could plug one into the "headphones symbol' port and try recording again with Garageband. At least the jack is the right size. Again, this is just for the purpose of eliminating whether my good mic on a stand with the anti-popping sheild is at fault.
While my Mac does have both inbuilt speakers (I don't need external ones) and an inbuilt microphone, the latter is not of a high enough quality for voice overs, hence buying an external mic etc. But whatever is causing the clicking or ticking is obviously affecting the quality of my recordings. As you can imagine, it is very time-consuming to edit out the ticking spikes and if the noise appears during speech, you can't edit it out at all.
Please keep the suggestions coming. I am determined to get to the bottom of this for my sake and everyone else who is suffering from the same problem! -

Apple does not repair devices beyond replacing the screen on some models or a battery replacement. They replace the ENTIRE device.
For the Out of Warranty replacement cost, you could have gotten a fully functional replacement device. Instead you chose to spend less to get only the screen replaced and continue to live with additional issues.
Apple will not touch the device now. They will know that it was opened elsewhere and that the replacement screen is not original. -

Nonsense, and very misleading advice. I've updated iPhone 3G, 3Gs,and 4 through itunes many times, never had a problem once, not with one single update in nearly 5 years of iPhones. Of course, I've never jailbroken my phones either. Hack your phone and have update problems? I've got news for you, the problems are not a result of iTunes or Apple's updates. -

Normally, you just connect the monitor to the MacBook using a VGA adaptor that you can buy from an Apple Store. Now try System Preferences > Displays > Detect Displays. You should now be able to select a display mode for the monitor. If it still doesn't work, then I'd check that everything is properly connected. I've had problems with colours disappearing due to a faulty connection in the VGA adaptor.

My laptop was stolen and I need to be able to connect my iPhone4 to the new laptop and transfer content (photos, mp3's, apps etc.) to the new laptop. I'm afraid to try a sync in case it deletes all the content off the iPhone. Any suggestions?
You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

New to iCloud. I only bought the storage to stop getting not enough storage messages. Now I can't back up to iCloud. I get the message "you have not backed up this device in 14 weeks, your device needs to be connected to wifi, locked and plugged in" I connected to wifi and am sitting with my phone about 10" from my modem. I am plugged into my charger which is plugged into the wall. I created a passcode for my phone as I an guessing thats what locked means. However if I am locked I cannot get into the phone to see if it is backing up. So I ask it to back up then let it go off to lock, give it 5 or 10 min to back up and then get back into it only to find its still on estimating time remaining. It won't go any further then that.. What am I doing wrong??
This may not solve your problem but may clear up a couple of things.
1: Re the connected to wi-fi, plugged in and locked thing is for automatic backups. It doesn't need to be plugged in or locked for it to work when you go to Settings > iCloud > Backup and tap Back Up Now. Mine completes the backup quickly without being plugged in or locking (but I don't have a lot to backup).
2: Locked just means the lock screen is on (press the sleep/wake button on top) -- it will work without a passcode (& again, the lock screen on is only required for the automatic backup).
3: You can see what is using your storage and maybe reduce some of it so that you don't have to pay for storage. Instructions in Manage your iCloud storage - Apple Support
