Just learning the guitar and want to know what cable I need to connect my guitar to my imac

I know this may seem a basic question but there are a lot of different ways to look at doing this.I am only just starting to learn so don't need any thing fancy.

you an try this cable, however most people find that the level is unacceptable without a preamp of some kind. in general some type of audio interface is required, something like any of these:

  • HT5637 I have just joined itunes match and want to know what I do now?  Do I delete all music on my iphone and how do I then see the music that's stored in the cloud?

    Hi
    I have just joined itunes match and want to know what I do now.  Do I delete all the music on my iphone and ipad and if so how?  Once I've done that how do I find the music on the cloud on my phone/ipad?

    Go to Settings > General > Usage, select Music, then Edit. There will be a delete option there. It may take a few minutes to delete if you have a large collection on your iPhone.

  • I recently purchased a Mac Book Air and wanted to know what would be the best external hard drive to buy as far as the brand and GB or TB are concerned? I will basically just be storing music, papers, and a lot of pictures.

    I recently purchased a Mac Book Air and wanted to know what would be the best external hard drive to buy as far as the brand and GB or TB are concerned? I will basically just be storing music, papers, and a lot of pictures. Also, how should I go about charging my computer? Should I wait until it is close to dying and then charge it?

    I have had good success with HGST and Seagate HDDs.  I suggest a HDD that is powered by the MBA eliminating the need for an AC cord.  They now come up to 1.5 TB in capacity.  In my opinion, one cannot have too much storage.  If necessary, let your bank account be your guide.

  • Just Bought a Presonus Firebox and want to know if I really need to install

    Just Bought a Presonus Firebox and want to know if I really need to install the presonus software that came with it?
    Is it really necessary?
    thanks, technoreid

    The Firebox Mixer allows you to set up different
    routings for the monitors and headphones. You may
    never use such features, but if you do, you'll
    appreciate the flexibility. It can also be used to
    provide lower latency monitoring of live signals than
    you might get using softwre monitoring in Logic.
    For most operation, you won't need it, and you'll
    control everything from Logic and the front panel
    level controls.
    In my opinion, the Firebox is the king of small
    interfaces.
    Before worrying about a tube preamp, get some mics,
    and learn how to use the EQ in Logic.
    +1 a solid interface
    personally i use the mixer feature to switch my main outs from 1-2 to 3-4 when using traktor to let 1-2 be the headphone cue.... ect....

  • Im new to Mac and wanted to know what is the easiest way to transfer files from a mac computer and mac extenal hardrive to windowns and vice versa?

    Im new to Mac and wanted to know what is the easiest way to transfer files from a mac computer and mac extenal hardrive to windowns and vice versa?

    For small amount of files, a regular USB stick or drive, it's already formatted with a MBR and FAT32 most likely which works both on PC's and Mac's.
    External drives if you need more space.
    However FAT (or Fat32 or MSDOS) has a 4GB file size limit. So if your transfering files bigger than that then you need to format it exFAT on the Windows machine.
    Vista and Win 7 can do this, Windows XP one can download a free exFAT upgrade from Microsoft.
    Mac's can read/write the MBR and FAT/exFAT (10.6.5 and later) formats, it's best to format it on the Windows machine, even though the Mac can format it too, it's better to do it on Windows then take it to the Mac to confirm.
    Rack your brain here on it.

  • I have an iPhone 4s that is still covered under the AppleCare Protection Plan. I have a pretty significant crack across the screen and wanted to know if I have to pay any additional fees to replace the screen or replace the entire phone.

    I have an iPhone 4s that is still covered under the AppleCare Protection Plan. I have a pretty significant crack across the screen and wanted to know if I have to pay any additional fees to replace the screen or replace the entire phone.
    I was hesitant to purchase this protection plan at first about $70, but the customer service agent reassured me that there were no deductables and thats why I bought into it. But now that I look around on the support site, I see that it says that there are up to two incidents covered for a service fee of $49. Did I really get duped?

    If the issue is a manufacturing defect, there is no cost to have the device replaced.
    If the issue is a result of user damage (like a cracked screen) and you have AppleCare+ Apple will replace the device for the minimal fee of $49.  They will do this up to two times during the timeframe of the protection plan.
    If the issue is the result of user damage and you do not have AppleCare+ then the Out of Warranty replacement cost is $199 for the 4S.
    No, you were not duped, you were simply not completely informed.  Whether that was a result of them not sharing all the information or you only hearing what you wanted, no one here knows.

    You can get Mifi devices (the iPad connects to it via wifi and they then give access to 3G networks). I've never used one and I don't know if they are available in Canada (and if so how much they would cost). If you have an iPhone then you could also use that as a mobile hotspot

  • Hey guys. I want to connect my MacBook to my Samsung television and don't know what cable to purchase. It's a five year old machine and I presume a fairly simple solution but would appreciate it if someone could link me up to the correct cable to buy.

    Depends on what input plug you'll be using on your TV. VGA, DVI, Composite or HDMI. You'll need a Mini-DVI adapter and a cable from that to your TV. Here's the various types of Mini-DVI adapters on Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=min i-dvi&x=9&y=13
    (Composite is the red, white and yellow RCA plugs on your TV or red, white and S-Video plugs.)
    You'll also need audio cables to the TV using a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs for VGA, DVI or Composite. You attach it from the headphone jack of your MacBook to the appropriate input plugs on your TV http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=min i-dvi&x=9&y=13#/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_2_19?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=macbo o k+audio+cable&sprefix=macbook+audio+cable&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Amacbook+audio+cable
    If you connect the MacBook using a Mini-DVI to HDMI adapter you will probably need to use external speakers or a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo system for audio if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs or a 3.5mm stereo input plug for audio with the HDMI plug. The Mini-DVI to HDMI doesn't carry audio and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI.

  • Does the iPad mini have a setting so it can be used with either 120 or 240 electrical current? If yes, how do you go about setting the desired input voltage? I will travel to Northern Europe and want to know if I will need a voltage converter.

    The iPad charger is dual voltage. You need only a plug adapter to be able to plug your US charger into a European wall outlet. A basic one costs about $2.00. - $6.00. Like this...

    I'm installing the new OS and iPhone is asking for a password to "restore" my iPhone, but I've never used a password for the phone and don't know what it is!  Can anyone help??

    You selected Encrypt iPhone Backups in iTunes.  Then you entered a password.
    It would be that specific password it is asking for.

    I read a way on another forum to fix this problem. Right click on the setup.exe and select "Run as administrator" this should solve your problem.

  • I'm learning Simply Impress, and want to know if it makes folded cards, I'm learning Simply Impress, and want to know if it makes folded cards

    I'm learning Simply Impress and wat to know if I can create folded cards as well as business-size cards.

    Given your budget, have you considered a secondhand G4 tower? You'd have the upgrade potential that the iMac's design doesn't permit. Then you could run dual internal hard drives, select your graphics card, and have PCI slots for any expansion cards your audio and/or video projects might require. The iMacs are great right out of the box, but if you're someone who'd like the flexibility to customize your computer for specific needs, I'd consider something like the 2002 G4 MDD model. Why not post your question in the G4 Expansion Forum, and see what advice/suggestions you receive from other G4 owners? Of course, you'd need to get a display, but then again, there are plenty of CRT or LCD models to choose from. If you've got a decent display for a PC, you can use it with the Mac.

  • I am traveling to Australia and want to know what I need, in the form of converters/adapters to be able to safely recharge.

    I am traveling to Australia and need to know what I need, converter, adapter, etc. to safely charge?

    Apple power supplies (bricks) work on all voltages and frequencies in the world, so it doesn't matter where you come from or where you go to ......
    You will need an adaptor to make the wall plug provided fit in the Australian sockets, buy that at the airport when you get there.
    That's it

  • My 8X beats audio was just updated and wanted to know what was fixed?

    I have had some issues with beats, for example i'll play some music with earphones in and the volume will be a lot lower then it usually is. And to temporarily fix this I take a screenshot which makes it louder again. Weird. But, does anyone know what the update released today fix? It didn't say while I was updating. Thanks!

        Wow Lizneedshelp. That's certainly a strange quirk to your beats. The last software, version 1532.20.20102.605, included some great improvements to the SIM recognition, Skype audio, battery life, and device freezing troubles. It doesn't appear that the trouble you're having is very widespread. Did this start before the most recent update or after? Does the trouble only seem to occur when you play music through a specific application? Have you tried rebooting the phone and SIM http://vz.to/10gVtKd to help refresh the device?
    I'll be looking forward to more details.
    Thank you
