Is there a cable that connects the 4s to an Ihome product

I purchased an iHome docking station for my husband for Christmas.  We are having a difficult time connectng the phone and docking station with the phone in the otter box.  Any suggestions for a cable that would connect the two?

Here's an actual response rather than a snotty blow-off:
You can't use the cheaper dock extension cables. even if they say "30-pin pass-through" they won't work with the iHome.
You need one of the $20+ cables or "stubs" -- i.e. DockStubz, CableJive, etc. The "stub" works fine but I find it precarious -- there's no support for the weight of the device. (Why do they make these things like this?) The cable is better if you don't care about the phone sitting nicely in the top of the iHome.
There is no other way, at this point. It's a stupid design flaw common to a number of devices I've used or seen -- can't fit the iPad/iPhone/Touch with a case on, even though most people use cases, and it would be very simple to include a fourth adapter insert with the iHome shaped properly to accept cases and bumpers.

  • Is there a cable to connect the ipod to the ipad to down load music?

    Hi is the a connection to use from the ipod to the ipad to down load music?

    No.
    All music on your iPod should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music to your iPad in the same way it was transferred to your iPod - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.

    Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.

    Absolutely!
    Install Splashtop2 on the PC and enable it to be controlled or ran from iPad or Reflection to simply allow iPad to serve as PC unwired monitor. With Splashtop and an Apple TV connected, you use the smartboard as usual, yet the PC and iPad can see the same content. The impaired child can even interact with the Smart Board via the iPad as if he were writing directly on the big screen. Erasing functions can be done by touching the Smart Board manual controls. Several variables are in play that cause this lack of functionality:
        Apple won't permit PC software that infringes its proprietary apps.
        Smart Board companies refuse to develop iPad apps because they feel threatened and are being replaced by iPads
        School districts think Apple TV is meant for copyright infringement and could expose them to safe harbor lawsuits
        Network administrators make it impossible to login Apple TVs because they don't want the streaming occurring
        Classrooms are not able to keep up with the technology of using the iPad
        Clicker companies refuse to play with iPad because they see it as a potential threat to their core business clients
        Apple is not working as hard as it could to exploit its capabilities in education, thus losing money in iPad sales
    The bottom line is that we educators and technology developers are hurting our childern with petty conflicts.

  • When using the Pencil, I need to be able to draw an organic dotted line, but there is a shortcut in place that connects the dots because I'm double clicking. How do I get rid of this shortcut?

    When using the Pencil, I need to be able to draw an organic dotted line, but there is a shortcut in place that connects the dots because I'm double clicking. How do I get rid of this shortcut?

    What is the purpose of the double click?  If you click once to deposit each mark in sequence the dots should not join. However, if you click once to create the first mark, then hold down the Shift key, each subsequent mark with the Shift key held down will join the dots and create a line.

  • Xi Fi Platinum, in need of wires that connect the drive with the c

    Hey I've had a xi fi platinum for more than a year now but only now am I attempting to use spdif optical rather than analog. the only way to do that is to connect the dri've (which previously i didn't have connected) to the card. but i lost the wires that connect the card to the dri've. does anyone know where I can get them, or if it is possible to purchase them from creative? or, is there another way to connect optical to the platinum?
    thanks a lot.

    I was in the same boat a week ago. Have a look here:

    Now a question for all of you digital experts. Is there any particular reason why the S/PDIF connection from the X-Fi to my HT receiver is sounding inferior to the S/PDIF connection from my DVD player? The cable run from the X-Fi output is a bit long (75 ft.), but I didn't think that would matter as it's impossible to distort a digital signal. Is there perhaps a setting in the audio console that is messing up the signal?
    Thanks,

    Hi there dcjoe,
    A lot of places carry the cables you are looking for. Though your area may vary I have found them in places like radioshack and wal-mart. Here is a google shopping link to get you started. Let us know if this helps.
    Best of Luck!

  • Black plastic strip that connects the screen to the keyboard is cracked, ideas for fixing without replacing the whole screen?

    The black plastic strip that connects the top portion (screen) to the bottom portion (keyboard) is cracked and getting pretty bad. I brought it in to get fixed, but I was told it is just a costmetic problem. I am worried that soon it will be cracked completely. Is there any way to just replace that portion without replacing the entire screen?

    I completely agree. If it does crack all the way through, does it effect the use of the computer though?
    I'm just trying to plan ahead.

  • Is there a BAPI that gives the status information (and possibly more) of a

    Hi All,
    We are using an external document image system where we scan and code vendor invoices. They are send to our SAP system via a BAPI.
    We want to update the status of the invoice in the document image system from the status in the SAP system, so whether it is still open or has been paid and cleared. Is there a BAPI that gives the status information (and possibly more) of a specific vendor open item?
    Regards,
    Gerrit

    Are you sure about that? Several highly regarded, widely downloaded apps, e.g., eReader, have an option to hide the status bar. The developer forums are awash in discussions about the commands to hide the status bar-- it's built in to the SDK.
    I figure someone will have put out a small program that does nothing but hide the status bar or allow its tweaking... much like StatusBar does on the Palm OS 5 PDAs...

  • Is there anything available that covers the pros/cons of a simple and network PCD migration?

    Is there anything available that covers the pros/cons of a simple and network PCD migration?  

    Hi,
    as such there is no DOC but I can share my views:
    Under Pros:
    a. PCD is an application use to migrate older versions[6.1.5, 7.x , 8.x] running on MCS to VM servers.
    b.It can be used to change the IP address or hostname on new servers without affecting existing version .
    c. Many users using MCS Hardware are not willing to migrate to latest version because of existing HW not supporting interim releases which they have to hop through to get on to the target release.
    d. Further, this requires license re-hosting as well for interim releases and major downtimes as well which can be avoided by using PCD without disturbing existing setup.
    e. Also, DRAM/HDD sizing needs to be considered while doing migration on MCS.PCD addresses these issues for migration.
    Under CONS:
    a. It needs to be ordered through Product Upgrade Tool and bootable is not downloadable from Cisco site.
    b. You could face some issues while doing migration which could be bugs but can be resolved.
    c.could face issues while discovering  cluster/doing migration but can be resolved.

  • Is there an app that hides the status bar?  Or permits customization of it?

    I'd like to hide the time in the status bar, or replace it with other information.
    Reason: I don't like being reminded what time it is when using a PDA type device, especially not in the middle of the night if I'm reading on it.
    Is there an app that hides the bar universally, or lets one replace the time, with say the date or other text?

    Just to set your expectations...it's fine to "rant" about things here, but I do hope you are not expecting a formal reply from anyone at BlackBerry. For this site is not a channel for any formal communications with, escalations to, nor support from BlackBerry for any purpose whatsoever. Rather, it is a user-to-user community of volunteers who try to help each other out to the best of their abilities. Note this banner, please, posted at the top of nearly every page of the site:
    Consequently, words posted such as "WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH YOU?" are actually directed at the other kind volunteers of this site, who may not respond in the most kindly of fashions. Hopefully, we all can understand that your rant is directed at BlackBerry (though, by placing it here, it is misplaced), but I just wanted to gently caution you about such posts, as well as ensure that your expectation concerning replies is properly set. Also, for new members who join the site, it's always good to have responses to such posts, covering the intended use of the site so that those new members can better understand such things.
    On the other hand, if you do desire assistance from other users for your issues, you might consider wording your requests in a manner that would motivate a kind volunteer to provide such.
    Good luck!

    I went in you tube and watched videos on how to fix my headphone jack and its not the headphones cause when I look inside I see this little white costing in there I think that's the problem how can I fix it

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Make sure that y do not leave any foreign material or leave anything in the jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
