Connecting ipod to portable sound system...

Hi everyone!
I was told that you can buy a dock that will connect to any portable sound system where you can dock your ipod to play through the sound system and charge at the same time...is this true and if so where can i buy?
Thanks in advance...

  • I have a ipod nano, and I bought a Bose portable sound system, when I put my ipod in the unit and play my songs in shuffle mode, it plays the same song over and over, how do I get it to play in shuffle mode?

    I have a ipod nano, and I purchased a Bose portable sound system to play my ipod on
    but it will not shuffle the music, it will play the same song over and over, until I hit the
    next song on the remote or do it manually. Does anybody have a solution?????

    Sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled.  See your iPod's User Guide for information on how to turn it off.

  • Macbook aluminum, connecting audio to surround sound system. HELP!!

    Hi,
    I'm tryna connect sound running from my macbook to my home cinema kit. the sound system has a fiber optic input. so im trying to connect the sound via digital means. can you tell me what cables i need. I saw the fiber optic cables and i no the headphone jack can support fiber cable, but can some one tell me what piece i need to connect to my cable so i can stick it in the headphone jack of the mac.
    Hope this make's sense.

    The headphone jack on the MacBook is a combined analog and digital optical port. Since it's the 3.5mm size, if you want to connect it to your sound system via a digital optical audio cable, you'll also need what's known as a mini-SPDIF to SPDIF adapter or cable. It looks like there's a cable with an adapter available at the UK online Apple store. If you already have a cable, you may be able to find one of the adapters at a local electronics store. They're usually available at a Radio Shack in the U.S., for example.

  • Connect Macbook PRO house sound system via IPOD adaptor

    I want to connect my Macbook PRO via USB to IPod dock adaptor on whole house sound system w/IPOD adaptor. Any suggestions for adaptors with USB to IPOD-like port?  In other words one end of the cable needs USB (for Mac) and the other needs to look the internal mating part of the IPOD.

    So either get Pandora for iPhone or iPod Touch and dispense with the MBP, or get AirPhones and stream from the MBP to the system via iPod.
    Your primary problem is not finding a cable, but finding a hardware or software device that will make the MPB behave like an iPod, which is quite a different kettle of fish.
    If you're not tied to the dock, then check your system's audio inputs. You could connect your MBP to it, or you could get AirPort Express with AirPlay for w/less streaming.

  • Can my macbook pro connect to jvc thd60 sound system if so how

    i bought a minidisplay port to hdmi cable. i plugged both parts in and havent had any luck getting sound. im not even sure if the sound system wll even play on a mac. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

    Yes your Mac can connect to the system through the Digital (Optical) Audio In port on the JVC.
    Mac's stereo mini output jack  doubles as a stereo mini optical port, just have to enable it when the cable is attached in the System Preferences.
    All you need is a stereo mini optical to optical cable (aka Toslink) adapter and Toslink optical cable to the receiver.
    The Mac can pass multi-channel sound through, it doesn't decode surround sound formats, but the receiver does.
    Also if your receiver can take the 2.0 channel of iTunes stereo music and process into 4.1 sound, would make for a nice experience.
    Also, if you get a Airport Express or Extreme, you can almost do away with the optical cable and enable AirTunes in Airport Utility on the router, then use a optical cable from that to the JVC.
    But I think it only works with iTunes, unless you install some third party software hack from Ambrosia that allows all Mac audio through.
    Enjoy.

  • Can't connect my 2.1 sound system to my TV

    I have my Element ELFDW406 connected to the (RCA) Audio Output on my TV. My TV speakers are still on, and no signal seems to be going to the 2.1 Sound System from the Audio Out on the TV. This TV has no headphone jack which I used on other TVs for the sound system.
    I cannot find anything in the menu via the remote that lets you shut off the TV speakers and switch the audio out via the RCA output. Any Ideas?

    Hi Ronrak,
    I’m not familiar with Element TVs having never actually worked with one before. From what I could find online, it sounds like you’re using the Element ELDFW406 and it looks like you’ve posted this in several other spots online without any success.
    The Element website doesn’t have a manual listed for this model, but I was able to find a similar one in the series (ELDFW322) that should give me a better picture of what you’re looking at.
    From what I’ve seen, it doesn’t sound like that model of TV has an option for RCA out and instead offers a Coaxial Audio output (S/PDIF) exclusively.
    I can’t give a definitive answer though as I'm not able to find accurate information on your specific model. I might be able to recommend a solution to you, and I ask that you provide me with some quick information.
    A list of all inputs/outputs on the back of your TV. (They don’t need to be in order, just tell me what each input/output is labeled as).
    The model number of your sound system (or a list of inputs/outputs)
    With this, I should hopefully be able to give you a better answer than “just use the remote”

  • Connection to Honda automobile sound system

    Since 2010, I have been able to connect my iPhones (original, 3 and 5) through the 16-pin/lightning connector to my 2010 Honda automobile's USB slot. I've always been able to then use the steering wheel control buttons and automobile touch screen to search songs, albums, playlists, etc. Since upgrading to iOS 8.02, none of the automobile controls work.  I have to use the iPhone's controls, which makes me take my eyes off the road and hands off the steering wheel to unlock the phone, access the music and select what to play. This is not an acceptable way of using the phone or automobile's sound system. Is there a correction for this? If not, is it being included in the next (hopefully soon) update?
    Thank you for your help.

    Hello cfgarcia1,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot this issue where you are unable to control your iPhone with your steering wheel controls please follow the troubleshooting steps in the article below.

  • Connect HP PAvilion to Sound System

    HiI have a dv7t-7000 laptop. I'd like to hook it up to the same sound system I use for my TV & DVD player.  Does anyone have thoughts on the best way to do that?   My one HDMI port is already used to connect to my TV.   I don't have an audio card(??) but I'd be willing to get one.   I have  a head phone jack.  If my sound system had an AUX Audio jack, I'm sure I could connect those with a (stereo?) cable.   Embarrassing, but I don't even know if I have blue tooth.  If I did, that might be a way to go?  I'd love to hear any ideas or suggestions. Thanks!

  • How can you connect Ipod to a linux system?

    Bought our study abroad student an Eee PC computer that will work well in his home country of Africa. My boys got Ipods for Christmas and I gave him one too. We are unable to find a way to get it to connect to his linux system. Is is possible?? It is an Ipod Nano 4th generation. Thanks!

    The iPod is designed to work with iTunes however is no version of iTunes for Linux so there's no simple answer to your question. You'd be much more likely to find a possible solution by posting in one of the many Linux discussion websites. Linux Questions would be a good place to start, you'll find the forum at this link: LinuxQuestions.org

  • Connect IPOD to surround sound wall plate (to 4 pairs of banana sockets)

    I have a banana socket plate on my wall that connects to four different ceiling speakers via four pairs of black/red sockets. So far, I can only figure out how to connect to one set of sockets. But how do I connect the IPOD to all four sets to achieve surround sound effect?

    goto a store like WorstBuy (i mean BestBuy) & tell them your problem. sounds like you need some kind of adapter. i use an adapter on my stereo to connect my ipod, & it works.

  • IPad connected to a Bose portable sound?

    Is there any way that I can connect an iPad to a Bose sound portable system? Is there any accessory that Incan use? Where can I find it?

    Easiest way, assuming the Bose model has external inputs, is a Y adapted RCA to headphone jack cable. Its how I connect the iPad (and iPod) to my sound system at home.

  • Airplay mirroring intermittent sound only through Onkyo Sound System

    Downloaded the Mountain Lion y'day.The video is perfect but the sound is intermittent. I got an apple TV y'day which I connected to my Onkyo sound system. I can play itunes and get sound through the sound system both via macbook pro as well as iphone. I can't understand what's wrong when I mirror my laptop. Sooooooooo frustrating. Any good soul who would help me ;(

    Update:
    First Applecare chat session:
    1. Was asked to boot in safe mode. No luck.
    2. Was asked to zap the pram. No luck.
    Second Applecare session:
    1. Was asked to archive and install. No luck.
    Third Applecare session:
    1. Was asked to try with a clean user. No luck.
    At this stage the tech told me they will approve a second mid plane swap, all I have to do is call them in to arrange for the spare part to be shipped to my local Apple techs.
    I have to say this: While I am terribly annoyed at this whol e ordeal, having Applecare has made an incredible difference in the stress levels of this whole business. Each of these 3 sessions were done as an onine chat. I kept working and only had to make sure to keep an eye on the tech in case he was asking for something.
    It is a **** of a lot better than to play phone tag with two tiers of tech support. While sure, I am glad that Applecare extends my coverage by two years, the combination of being allowed to deal with these issues over a chat session totally kicks ***. And the on-site repairs are awesome when going to an Apple store is too much of a hassle.
    This is the last time I don't purchase Applecare at the same time I purchase a Mac.
