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.

I need a fax server that will drop to a network folder not email

I work in a small medical office that recently went to electronic records. However, all our referrals come in over our fax machine. I need a fax server that will receive our faxes and drop them into a network folder. I also want the ability to send outgoing faxes from each desktop. I've been looking for 6 months and have not an answer. Help please.

Posting your email address here is not the wisest move. The spammer can harvest it very easily.
I requested that Mods edit it so that is not so obvious.

My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!

My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!
I've had this from new for 2 years, the battery life is excellent and lasts for days so I know it's not a power issue as it was fully charged that morning. No signs of connection in itunes, it's not showing as a connected device.
Can anyone please help?

Cable that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)

Hi,
The HDMI port on my Maxent tv is not working. I am hoping to connect my MacBook Pro to the TV via the VGA port on the TV to watch Netflix and movies. What cables do I need that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)? And will that cable support audio or will I need a separate audio cable?
Thanks-
Sheri

Hi Sheri,
The Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro models have a Mini DisplayPort for video out, which can be connected to a VGA connector using Apple's adapter. See this product page -
Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter - Apple Store (U.S.)
VGA does not carry an audio signal.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

IPhone shows a error message when i plug up to my pc. I have other iPhones that will connect without the error message

Having a problem with a iPhone 3GS. When I try to back it up on my pc or laptop it has a error message. We have other iPhones that will connect when plugged in. I need to back up my data on this iPhone so it can be serviced. Can anyone help?

Try a quick reset of the phone first. If it still doesn't work, go to Edit/Preferences/Devices in itunes and delete the old backup for the 3GS.

Docking Stations that support a 6th generation Nano

What is the downside of buying a docking station that doesn't list the Nano 6th generation among iPods that it supports, e.g. the Bose Sound Dock Series II, and a second less expensive docking station like the iHome iP90 or iP46 or Sony ICF-CS10iP? Can I hurt my iPod by doing that?

No but it may not work. Or some things may work & other don't.
If you see these items in the store, try your iPod Nano on them to see if it will work.
Another thing you can do is to contact the manufacturers to find out when they will update their product to work w/the iPod Nano 6th generation.

My computer motherboard and hard drive burn up with CS 4 on it. I got a new computer and cannot installed CS4 on it because it say invaild serial number. I need a serial number that will work to install on my new computer.

Is there a cable available that will connect an I pad to an older printer?

Is there a cable available that will connect an I pad to a printer?

If you have a Mac or PC there are utilities available that enable them to act as a print server, enabling you to print to any printer the Mac or PC can use.
The donation-supported handyPrint and a commercial product such as Printopia ($19.95 with free trial) are two examples. The Mac must be "on" but may be asleep for them to work. Equivalent PC options may exist but you're on your own finding them.
You can also buy this standalone print server:
http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/xprintserver/xprintserver.html
These options enable you to use any printer available to your network, even older ones that may predate AirPrint by decades. But as Bob said, everything you do with an iPad is wireless.

I am not sure if there is a lightning docking station. But you can buy a lightning-to-30-pin adapter for typical docking station.

Try using icloud and that should solve your problem

Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

Is there a script (or plugin) that will take a photo and break it up into parts?

Is there a script or plug-in out there that will take a picture and break it up into various parts (squares for example.) The idea would be that you could automate and rapidly create a photo collage of a single image. (See examples of what I mean in attached pics.)
Thanks!

You get the idea.

OK, I'm going to edit this post now that I'm at a computer with an actual step by step.
Create a new comp the size of you our final delivered project.
Add a photo to the timeline
Note the size of the photo and the scale to position the photo at it's final resting place
Calculate twice the height and width of the photo and create a new solid that is this size
Place the solid above the photo
Create a mask in the solid at the exact center that is the size shape you want for your photo frame
Either invert the mask or set the mask property to Subtract to reveal a small portion of the photo
Set the solid as a alpha inverted track matte for the photo (you should now see only a portion of the photo
Add a rectangular shape layer with only a stroke to act as the photo frame over the mask. You may have to use two shapes or create a mask on a shape if you want to simulate polaroids
Make the shape layer the parent of the solid you are using as a track matte so the matte will stay lined up with the frame
Here comes the fun, select all layers and duplicate them using Ctrl/Cmnd + D
Immediately hold down Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + } to move all duplicates to the top
Select the top shape layer and move the shape layer frame into a new position
Pre-compose the top 3 layers
Press the y key to select the Pan Benind or Anchor Point tool and move the pre-comp's anchor point to the center of the top frame
Repeat step 11 through 15 until you have arranged your montage (it might be a good idea to have a template set up as a guide layer so you know where to put the frames
Select all pre-comps and press Alt/Option + P to set a position keyframe for each pre-comp
With all of the keyframe selected move them down the timeline about 3 seconds
Now, with the CTI at the first frame drag each pre-comp into a starting position for that frame
Preview and adjust the timing, then turn on motion blur
Your images will now assemble themselves into the final montage.
There is no script that I know of that will do all of this automatically, but it would not be too hard to write a script that would do the pre-composing if you have a ton of these to do. I'm guessing that with a little practice you could have a new picture frame created and moved into position in less than a minute. It takes me about 30 seconds. That means a 20 frame sequence should take you about a half hour. It might not be worth writing a script unless you have a ton of these to do. Select the bottom three layers and duplicate (Ctrl/Cmnt + D), group them at the top (Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + } ), move the top frame layer into position, then Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + C to pre-compose, then move the anchor point of the pre-comp, then do it again.... When you're done set a few keyframes.
As I said, you could write a script, but you'd need a different script to move each frame into position and the script would only work for one layout. If you made a template to put on the bottom so you knew where do place the frames and which order you wanted them you could do this by hand very quickly. The sample project that I'm including which was just quickly thrown together took me less than 10 minutes. Replace my photo with one of yours and you'll get the idea.

Is there a DJ app for the Ipad that will read the "start" and "stop time" setting for each individual song, as they are set in the song Options screen in Itunes?

Is there a DJ app for the Ipad that will read the "start" and "stop time" setting for each individual song, as they are set in the song Options screen in Itunes? The Ipod Touch, by itself does not allow cross-fading, therefore when the stop time is edited short, the song jusst truncates then goes to the next song. I tried the DJay ap and while it would crossfade, it would NOT read the song settings for the stop marker. So now I want to try and Ipad and see if there is an app that will READ the Itune stop settings within the song. I do NOT want an app that will allow me to DO the stop marker. I want an app that will READ the stop marker from the song as it is set in Itunes.

Itunes provides the option for setting the Start and Stop times of each music track. However, the start and stop times do not synchronize to the iPhone. I don't understand why this option is even available as it doesn't work when listening to music on the phone. I have not found another application that will support the start and stop time markets. I have searched quite a bit for this but can't find anything. I hope we can find something.

Can I create a presentation in iPhoto that will combine still slides and video?

I have just returned from a safari and have a lot of pictures and videos from the trip. I would like to create a presentation/slide show that will show the slides and also videos in the same slide show and allow me to manually pace the show. I know how to do this in PowerPoint but would rather use a more natice mac ap and thought it might be possible in iMovie or iPhoto but am not sure exactly what the best way to do this would be.

and allow me to manually pace the show. I know how to do this in PowerPoint but would rather use a more natice mac ap and thought it might be possible in iMovie or iPhoto but am not sure exactly what the best way to do this would be.
If you want a native Mac application for your slideshow you could also try Keynote, the Apple alternative to Powerpoint. It will give you similar presentation options.
Aperture - if you have it - would allow to trim the videos, allow more fine control over how the audio of the clips will be mixed, and still allow to manually pace the slideshow, but it is expensive and will no longer be developed. But if you have compatible versions of Aperture and iPhoto, simple open your iPhoto Library in Aperture: Aperture 3.3: Using a unified photo library with iPhoto and Aperture
