Minijack-to-30pin-adaptor : connecting imac with "the dock" scandyna?

hi
i bought pair of micropods by scandyna and "the dock" by scandyna
they gave me a minijack to minijack cable to connect my imac to "the dock"
but "the dock" doesnt habe a linein, only an ipod line level 30pin connector input.
could i buy an adaptor which connects my imac through "minijack-to-30pin connector"
otherwise i havent the faintest idea how to connect my 2 micropods to my imac 24" glossy.
thanks

purepeter, you don't seem to understand the products which you have purchased. The Dock is designed to integrate with your iPod only. It is not designed to integrate with your iMac in any way.
The Dock allows you to use your iPod as a home music system, totally apart from your iMac.. It comes with inserts which allow it to work with different iPod generations and models; it will recharge your iPod battery and give you remote control use of the iPod functions, which is why it has the 30 pin connector. You then build your own system of choice to use with the Dock with the selection of speakers and subwoofers available. If you have a Video iPod, you can get the vDock, which allows you to also connect to an external video display.
As far as adding new music, videos, etc, to your iPod, or updating the software, you would need to use the USB dock/cable that came with it to connect to your iMac.
If you were looking for external speakers for your iMac, you could add the Micropods alone, without the Dock, with the adapter cables Dave Sawyer is mentioning, but I don't think that the manufacturer had that in mind for their use.

  • Anyone else having repeated wifi connectivity issues with the OSX version 10.8.5?

    I just updated the software on my iMac to OS X version 10.8.5. Now I am having repeated connectivity issues with the wifi in my house. This is the only device that is having these issues. My phone, ipad and tv are not having any problems at all.
    It happened immediately following the update. I was sending emails and browsing before the update without a problem.
    from apple:

    I had a message like that last week - only it asked what browser I would be using - I just quit safari - purges caches etc - and at that time noticed I was getting RSS feeds through PUBSUB - tracking them down to the top sites view I never use - I deleted all of the top sites (most of which I don't go into so it must have been a preset) that included MSN and Google - I don't use google so that was pointless.  (deleting a top site means you are blocking it from that page)    Have not had the message since so it must have had something to do with top sites activity.
    Just a note:  Did see somewhere probably BBC tech - that Google was going to stop supporting older web browsers.

  • I recently updated my Mid 2007 iMac with the latest OS 10.8.5 now my external hard drives will not show up. They show up when I boot them up on a machine running and earlier OS. Is there a fix for this?

    I recently updated my 20-inch, Mid 2007 iMac with the latest OS 10.8.5 now my external hard drives will not show up. They show up when I boot them up on a machine running and earlier OS. Is there a fix for this?

    Can you see them in Disk Utility?
    If so, can you select and Mount them?
    If not, disconnect them, reset the iMac's SMC and then reconnect them.
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
    3. Wait fifteen seconds.
    4. Attach the computer's power cord.
    5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    If you still can not see them, connect them back up to the iMac running the older OS, open Disk Utility and look to see how they are partitioned and formatted.

    Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

  • How can I synchronise my iTunes Library on my iMac with the one on my MacBook?

    How can I synchronise my iTunes Library on my iMac with the one on my MacBook?

    Carolyn:
    I have almost 10,000 songs/cuts in my music collection and, because of the poor quality of iTunes music, very few of those songs/cuts come from iTunes.  My music came from me ripping it disc by disc over hundreds of hours. I would like to be able to add a disc and have both the iMac AND the MacBook music files (plus an external backup) be updated.  Surely there is an intelligent, relatively easy to implement procedure for doing this. Perhaps I am missing something but your response doesn't seem to address the sync issue with all its implications...

  • Itunes wont connect me with the iphone server to upgrade

    I am getting really ticked about this one. I had this in both tiger and now in Leopard. I cannot connect with the itunes store to access my iphone update. the request times out, and then itunes gives me an error message saying I do not have permission to access the requested source. Anyone have clues about this? I didn't start having problems until I got the iphone. I also have frequent error messages from the store saying that my connection was lost and the it has reset. I have checked all firewall issues, and no connection issues with the internet.
    Does anyone out there have help?

    Yes, that's the case. Just as my iPhone 3G has topped out at version 4.2 while the newer iPhones, iPod Touches, and the iPads are on 4.3.

  • My Mac simply ignores my Iphone when I connect it with the USB cable. WHY? how Can I fix it?

    My Mac simply ignores my Iphone when I connect it with the USB cable. WHY? how Can I fix it?
    I was able to connect the first time, but after that my computer simply rejects the Iphone and nothing happens. The Iphone doesn't spin or try to reboot even! .
    WHAT to do? I got it today.

    When you say it ignores your iPhone, do you mean it does not appear in iTunes if you launch iTunes? Or it does not appear in Finder? Or does not appear in iPhoto? Or you get an error message?

  • How to fill the whole screen of my iMac with the photos included in an iDVD project. (iDVD v. 7.1.2)

    How to fill the whole screen of my iMac with the photos I included in an iDVD project. (iDVD v. 7.1.2). I mean, during playing the burned dvd.
    When I do "Enter Full Screen", the slide show fills the screen but the photo itself remains in the middle with a wide black border filling the rest.
    Any cure for this ?

    Hi
    In iDVD Preferences - Turn off - TV-Safe area - and the Photos will fill the full area with just letterboxing or pillars as max.
    Then "Save as a DiskImage" and test this and see if this plays better - before burning DVDs that's not as You want them.

  • I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

    I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

    Do not worry about it.
    Time Machine needs that your external drive is formatted in HFS+, or better known as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". This filesystem is used by Apple on Macs and Windows cannot read or write drives formatted with this filesystem, being this the reason why all your devices do not read the external drive except your Mac.
    You can only use your external drive to make Time Machine drives. If you store anything different, you may damage the Time Machine structure, so it is better not to use it as a drive to store other data. Instead, get another external drive to do it or create a second partition on the external drive formatted in FAT32 by using Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html FAT32 can be read by Windows PCs

  • When I print a 4x6 color picture using an iMac with the latest operating system using a Canon MX892 printer, faint black lines appear every 3/16 of an inch. When I print the same picture using iPhoto there is no problem.

    When I print a 4x6 color picture using an iMac with the latest operating system using a Canon MX892 printer, faint black lines appear every 3/16 of an inch. When I print the same picture using iPhoto there is no problem. Any suggestions?

    What is the resolution of the picture that you are trying to print?
    Go to Image>resize>image size, read the resolution in px/in, then report back, please.
    Also, are you in a position to try printing with another printer in an attempt to narrow this down?

  • Linksys E4200 - has to reboot to connect again with the internet

    I bought the E4200 a month ago (replaced D-link DIR-655) and since then I have to reboot it twice.
    I have a NAS connected to the router (and router to cable modem) and sometimes I have to FTP files from abroad. If I use the FTP too much time the E4200 just loose connectivity with the internet. Once home I have to reboot it in order to connect again with the internet. It never happen me before with the D-Link.
    Does anybody has a similar problem?
    Thanks!

    Actually mine is working great now, almost as if it had a break-in period.
    Mine has not flashed once in the past day (or more) and the last time I rebooted it was Wednesdsay evening (only to see if I could stop the flashing which was still happening
    at that time).
    I was also online on an interactive (gaming / gambling) site that is very quick to report what it considers "disconnects" if it sees any weakness in the connection to its servers and when using the E4200 it did NOT disconnect a single time all day yesterday.
    (My Belkin N1 Vision wireless router connection via my Rosewill RNX-N1 USB adapter had been "disconnecting" multiple several days in a row although I was able to surf the web without issues while it reported me as disconnected).
    Possible reasons everything is fine:
    1) I placed the router's four ridiculously tiny feet on four thick wooden drink coasters
    to give it more breathing room.
    The flashing stopped a day or two later... (Keep in mind the router is less than a week old, so the reason it stopped flashing could be unrelated).
    My wireless signal strength does seem to be sensitive to a 5.8 GHz cordless phone strangely even though it is a 2.4 GHz wireless adapter.
    Just turning the phone (which has an INternal anntenna and is about 3 1/2 feet away from my wireless adapter at the moment) 15 or 20 degrees immediately changed the wireless signal quality from 4 bars to 3 bars and vice versa!!! 
    2) As far as my needing to reboot it that one time (during the first full day I owned the E4200):
    I had been switching between two different model Rosewill wireless adapters a few times that afternoon (same chipset, same driver I believe and even show up as
    same device in 32 bit Windows 7 Device Manager) without restarting the router after each switch
    Since that one reboot, everything has been fine and my connection has been solid (pingtest.net tests over wireless produce an 'A' and speed has been for the most part relatively stable at 130 Mbps).
    I hope thay helps others here (especially Part 1 above).
    So overall I am extremely happy now.
    I now just need to see what the implications are by the current lack of official IPv6 support in the E4200 (will post separately about that).
    I noticed that my "IPv6 connectivity" on the wireless connection showed "no internet".
    I just ran some IPv6 tests online (on two separate sites) and they passed and, lo and behold, now it shows "internet access" (again) for IPv6 (and not just IPv4 as it did before)!

  • IMac with the NVidia 8800 option -- How noisy/quiet is it ?

    Hi,
    I have a PC with Vista, and I am just about to pull the trigger and get an iMac.
    Noise is very important to me, and I am wondering if I should choose the NVidia option because of the noise. I am planning on running XPlane on this computer, and I know it will run better with the NVidia card.
    Does anybody have an iMac with the NVidia card ? What's the difference in terms of noise with the ATI option ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I wish I could say I was 100% happy with this iMac, but unfortunately, this isn't so.
    While the original topic, the sound level, is just as we talked, as soon as you start pushing this NVIDIA graphic card, it causes the computer to crash. It's actually worse than what I was experiencing with Vista. Everytime it crashes, it has some funny badly rendered graphic on the screen, and just totally lock up on me. Sometimes it's so bad, I can't even ssh to the machine. Although I can't say for sure, it looks like the problem comes from the NVIDIA graphic card.
    Truth to be told, I use a lot of graphic intensive applications like VmWare Fusion and iPhotos, but that's what it's supposed to be for!!!
    I have to reboot the iMac every day almost. A real shame.
