How can I record a cassette on CD?  New 27 inch iMac does not have mini plug/mic input

I want to transfer music from a cassette to a CD using my new iMac but the iMac does not have a mini plug input for a mic.  I understand that I need to get an adaptor to use a USB port.  I bought a Syba SD-CM-UAUD USB Stereo Audio Adaptor and tried to use it.  All the sound came in on the left channel, the sound level was very high and could not be adjujsted down, and was very distorted.  After about 5 minutes of trying to adjust, my iMac showed a dialog that said It was having a kernnel panic!  I discontinued trying and returned the Syba.  Can anyone recommend an adaptor that will work with the iMac and Toast Spin Doctor?

  • How can I connect Apple tv to a digital projector that does not have an HDMI connection?

    I work in an elementary school library where we have 6 macs and 11 iPads.  I want to be able to share the output of each of these machines with Apple TV on a digital projector which does not have HDMI capability.  How can I do this?  I had been using an app called Refector with limited success.

    Open a program and drag the window over to the tv. You are using extended display mode.

  • How do I load my CS5 onto my new laptop that does not have a disk drive?

    I have my disks and serial number but there in no disk drive on this new laptop.

    That sounds like you are saying you do not have a DVD drive on your computer to insert the discs. No problem. You can download the installer direct from Adobe. All you will need is the serial number.
    Download CS5 products  Photoshop CS5 installers are available for both Windows and Mac.
    For Windows there will be two files, an .exe and a .7z that must be downloaded. The exe will create the installer when run.

  • How can I do a Save As in Pages? It does not have that option in the File menu.

    In the newest version of Pages (4.1) there is no Save As... option in the File drop down menu. Pages now saves automatically in the background, but I cannot find a way to save a modified version of a document in a new location.
    Any ideas about how to do this? Am I missing something?

    This seems like such a failure of Apple's desire to make an intuitively accessible user experience.
    My problem is that the word Duplicate is ambiguous. It can be used as a verb - to duplicate something. Or it can be used as a noun - an exact copy. Neither of these capture the intent of Save As, which almost always means either a modified version or a version you want to modify while keeping the original intact.
    The other problem is that if you hover your cursor just to the right of the file name at the top of the document you find a tiny triangle which when selected drops down a menu that includes Duplicate. If someone doesn't point this out, (Thank you for alerting me to it) or stumble across it, you would never see an indication it was there. There needs to be a visual clue if this is going to be visually accessible.
    Hey Apple! - there is a tweak needed here to a usually elegant operating system.
    Thanks Kappy and Peter

  • How can I find what apple ID I used to register my iMac when I first booted up? I am being told that by using this ID I will be able to go on to the App store and down load iPhoto at no cost. Is this true? My iMac does not have iPhoto resident on it now

    How can I find what apple ID I used to register my iMac when I first booted up? I am being told that by using this ID I will be able to go on to the App store and down load iPhoto at no cost. Is this true? My iMac does not have iPhoto resident on it now and I only purchased my new iMac in December 2012
    Thanks....

    Launch Keychain Access and click on Login in the left hand pane and then on Passwords.  Next do search for Apple in the search field at the top and click on Apple ID Authenicication in the list that comes up.  That will give you the ID no. and password.

    how can i fix "the sim card inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported " after restoring a factory unlocked iphone 4

    The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Your phone was not legitimately unlocked. Contact the carrier it is locked to and find out if you can get it unlocked.

  • How can I organise the program dashboard the way that it does not open automatically and very quickly other programs?

    How can I organise the program dashboard the way that it does not open automatically and very quickly other programs?
    Thanks for an answer

    If you hold down the option key while in dashboard you can close many of the programs.
    To disable it from opening automatically, or unintentionally:
    1) go to System preferences -> mission control.
    2) Deselect any mouse shortcuts
    3) Remove it from hot corners, if it is active.

  • How can I cancel my subscription if the "Cancel Plan" link does not appear in the screen?

    From your manual, you instruct the users to cancel the plan by accessing the manage plan screen and then click on the Cancel Plan button.
    However, how can the user cancel the plan if the Cancel link does not appear in the membership details screen?

    You need Adobe support to cancel a subscription

  • How can I burn my iMovie project to DVD?  I do not have iDVD or iLife on my iMac but I do have the internal DVD slot.

    How can I burn my iMovie project to DVD?  I do not have iDVD or iLife on my iMac but I do have the internal DVD slot.

    Hi
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

  • How do I download Adobe Flash Player for a computer that does not have internet?

    How do I download Adobe Flash Player for a computer that does not have internet?

    Hello Walter,
    that's it, usually you get and Adobe Flash Player Installer only.  For a distribution in a company, or an installation on a PC without internet access, Adobe has available an offline installer. This installer you don't need to uncompress it first. You can download the installation file from there (you must logged in with your Adobe ID): http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

  • How do I get twitter installed on my iPad when it does not have iOS 5.0?

    How do I get twitter installed on my iPad when it does not have iOS 5.0? How can I upgrade my iPad?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
