Male 8 pin Mini Din Mac to USB adapter cable

I have an old Opcode Translator Pro Midi interface that I used with an old Mac. The CPU and Thru connections used an 8 pin Mini Din Mac cable via Printer or Modem input on the Mac. The unit is G8 as it has 2 In and 6 Out Midi sockets which I want to use with my keyboard controller (non USB) and a Roland MT-120 Synth. I now have a new iMac which uses USB 2 and Firewire. Is there such a cable which has USB on one end and Male 8 pin Mini Din Mac on the other? Or wouldnt this type of connection work?
Is it possible to convert the Opcode Translator Pro somehow to USB 2?

allyshake,
Sounds like you have done a good job of thinking this through. A new adapter box makes a lot of sense. Have you considered finding a new home for the older equipment so that the complete set gets used?

4 Pole mini plug to 9 pin Mini DIN Adpater cable in Australia?

I have been trying to contact Creative Labs Australia about this particular adpater cable but i am only getting a reply saying that, only the manager knows about it so i have been leaving messages for him to contact me for the last 4 days!!!!!!!!!!!
Does anybody know where i can buy this cable in Australia? Creative part number is CB2032000002.
This cable is used to connect the Audigy2 Platinum Ex I/O Module to either DTT2500 or DTT3500 speakers using the the DIN connector. As the I/O Module doesn't have the DIN output i will need to use the 4 pole 3.5mm miniplug to be converted into 9 pin mini DIN.
Desperetely seeking this product. Can anyone help me please

If it makes you feel any better theres no where to buy this cable in the States either. Theres only 2 places I've found so far that sells this cable. One is creative which currently lists it as "out of stock" and this place:
http://www.globalsources.com/gsol/I/Mini-DIN-Plug/p/2000000003844/30000004968/bg/006604.htm
Only problem with that site is that it only sells the cable in lots of 3000, so you have to buy 3000 of them. If anyone knows of a place to get this cable please let me know as well.

Looking for 9-pin mini DIN to 9-pin mini DIN GREEN for Inspire 5700 digital

hi guys, I'm looking for this cable.
9-pin mini DIN to 9-pin mini DIN (2 meters - Green)
for my Inspire 5700 digital.
http://images.americas.creative.com/...mall89___6.gif
Currently I'm using the RED version from FPS2000, but I get no sound for Center speakers and SubW. So I suspect both cables are different internally although the connectors are the same.
Anyone knows where to get it in Msia.. or can I buy it from Creative Spore?
OR
Anyone using this set with analog mode, then can sell this DIN cable to me..
Thanks

Laserwriter 16/600 connection with parallel to USB adapter

I have a mac mini and and the great ole workhorse Apple laswerwriter 16/600 PS printer. I bought a parallel to USB adapter cable but have been unable to get it to work.
Also the ethernet connector on the printer is a very small type connector unlike the current ethernet type ports. Would I be better off trying to find this type of an adapter?
I have spent hours searching and can't believe I am the first one to ask this question.
Thanks All!

The Ethernet connection supports Ethernet communication via an AUI-15 connection, when used with an external AAUI-to-twisted pair (RJ-45) transceiver. It is located between the LocalTalk (MiniDIN8) and Fax (RJ-11 4-pin modular jack) ports. Its Icon resembles:

To use it, you need only purchase a transceiver, available for US$5 to 10 at eBay or used computer dealers.

Extending the USB–Lightning cable

I have a lovely new iPad mini Retina. The USB-Lightning cable that came with it is very short. I'd like to extend it. I assume the simplest (and probably cheapest) way to do this would be to get a USB extension cable, one with a female plug one end and a male the other. Correct? If so, do I need USB2 or USB3? I'm guessing 2, but not sure.

Just my opinion, but the easiest and least expensive way to extend your cable .....use a common household extension cord. That's what I use. Plug the cable from the iPhone/iPod/iPad into the power adapter and plug the power adapter into an extension cord. Buy a white cord and you will have a nice color match

Problem Printing to HP laserjet 4 plus via a parallel-usb adapter

This generic parallel-usb adapter cable worked fine on a Sony laptop printing to HP laserjet 4 plus, but when I tried to do the same with the Mac book pro (2.4 ghz mac 10.4.10), the printer is recognized and it prints but only in a faded fashion (as if it is draft printing). I looked in the control panel on the printer and tried to make a couple adjustments, but that didn't help. The cable's page said it had mac 8.2 or whatever support. It did come with some drivers disc but it is too small to work in the mac (not a standard size cd).
I would apreciate some help in this matter.

Hi Moorty
Hi wm300
I have connected a HP LaserJet 4L to Mac OS X 10.3.9 using a Keyspan parallel to USB adaptor cable. You will require the same hardware setup. It is more than a connector, the cable it has a small converter card in it.
Keyspan parallel USB printer adaptor
You already have such a similar cable.
Your problem seems to be the right driver.
remove the printer then Add it again and decide which driver you want to use.
Your model HP will work with the drivers available in OS X, HP LaserJet 4MP, or the old driver downloaded from the HP website for the LJ4/4M will also work.
A new driver for it will also work available here

So once connected to a USB port, your Mac will see it, load the right driver, and the printer should work.

HT4106 How much current the lightning/USB adapter can supply to an USB device

I bought a caméra terminated with a USB cable.
I want to connect that camera to my ipad mini using lightning to USB adapter
sold by Apple.
What is the maximum current supplied by the ipad mini through this adapter.?
Tks
Michel

The lightning to USB camera adapter cable doesn't provide output power. It only transfers the pic files from the camera. The camera's battery provides the power to operate the camera during this operation.
The lightning to USB cable is used to charge the iPad and the charger is rated at 10 or 12Watts of 5V power. So this cable carries 2+ Amps.
Why are you concerned?
 Cheers, Tom

Have scanner with mini din port. convert to usb?

hate to toss old visioneer paperport B & W with mini din port. Could probably be used with my macbook with a usb port. guess there is no converter. have searched online.

Is it a PaperPort Vx from approx. 1996? That model could be used over a serial connection (or SCSI, if a special SCSI adapter was added).
Even if it were possible to connect the scanner to a modern computer (for example, via a USB-to-serial adapter), I guess that compatible scanner software would be hard to find (two drivers for earlier Mac systems can be found through http://support.visioneer.com/products/Sheetfed/downloads.asp).
Do you still have an older Macintosh computer? If so, one could perhaps scan documents there, and then use a network to transfer files to a modern Mac (exact method depending on the type of computers involved). If not, you may even want to buy an old Macintosh computer just for the purpose (to be used as a "converter"). The minimum requirements appear to have been a 68020 processor Mac with System 7.

Core MIDI from iPad Mini to Mac via lightning USB charging cable

I want to use some of my Core MIDI compatible iPad Apps to control Logic Pro and other DAWs on my MacBook Pro via USB (Core MIDI over WiFi has unmanageable latency issues).
I read on various forums that it is possible to use Core MIDI via USB using the Apple Camera Connection Kit or Lightning to Mini USB adapter, but doesn't this simply work with the included Lightning to USB charging cable?

Image Capture is a built-in program and should be in your Applications folder, Aperture I bought from the Mac App Store.
For Simple Transfer it's an iPad app, so you would download it on your iPad from the app store.

Intel Mac Mini Core Duo Midi USB Issues

Is anyone else having issues getting Midi devices to work with the Intel Mac Mini's? I have several Midi devices that are't working correctly event though I have installed the newest drivers.
Currently I am having issues with a M-Audio Midisport 2x2 USB adapter. I loaded the newest drivers (ver 3.2.2) which are supposed to be universal binary to support the Intel Macs. When I connect the Midisport 2x2 to the Mac Mini I can not get it to receive Midi Output from the Mac.
When I look in the Midi control pannel I can see that the Midisport has been installed, but all options to select it are greyed out. Also when I try to select it as the input or output there is NO option to select the Midisport from the pull down menu. It only shows the "Built-in Midi" as and option.
The Midisport works fine on other non-Intel Macs. Please advise.
Thanks!
Mac Mini Intel Duo Core 1.66Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.7)

It seems like the mini is doing alright so far. I think maybe the full erase solved whatever issue it was having. I also got my Core Duo Mini yesterday in the mail and it's performing like a champ. Definitely a nice machine.
I'll close my question for now, since the Core Solo Mini seems alright. But, as a warning don't get on Front Row's bad side. I tried force quitting it because it was taking too long to load the videos folder and then tried shutting down from a terminal and ended up having to turn the machine off.

I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad. Can I use the iPad as a monitor and keyboard for the Mac mini, either through the USB connection or thru Wi-Fi?

I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad. Can I use the iPad as a keyboard and screen for the Mac mini, using either the USB connector or Wi-Fi?

I'm sorry, I should have said thru Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi. I want to use the mini as a base station and the iPad like a laptop that I can sync when I'm home and carry with me when I travel. Is is possible to hook these 2 up - iPad/mini, through Bluetooth? I understand I need to use a regular monitor/keyboard/mouse on the initial install.

Using 802.11ac USB adapter on Mid 2010 Mac Mini Server

I recently read an article about the 802.11ac connection and it mentioned if you use a USB adapter on a USB 2.0 connection you will lose much of the intended speed. Does anyone know if there is a way around this, like a FireWire USB adapter or is it possible to install a USB 3.0 port on my Mac Mini?
