Problems with wired connection to external speakers - 8330 Curve

I have a boombox and travel speakers I use with my 8330 curve. When I connect these to my 8330 with a 3.5mm cable (3 contacts, not 4) I get static between each song. I am guessing this has something to do with using a 3 contact male connector into the 4 contact female connector on my device. I understand the 4th contact is used for microphone on a headset, but I only want to connect to my speakers for music.
Any thoughts on how I can connect to external speakers and eliminate the static? Is there a 3.5mm adapter that goes from a 4 contact male to a 3 contact female? Blackberry offers a 3.5 male to 2.5 female adapter which is not what I am looking for, plus I believe it is still 4 contacts so it would not resolve my static problem.
I am hoping for a resolution without resorting to the Bluetooth gateway.
Thanks!

Unfortunatly, I can't help with the cabled connection static issue.  However, I'll plug the Gateway.  I have one and it's absolutely awesome.  It works flawlessly and I wouldn't trade it for a cable for anything.

  • Problems with wired connection to WRT54G

    my wireless download could hit 600KB/s constantly but when i am wired, download is at 1.8MB/s but it only lasts for 5seconds max then everything slows down to 1KB/s, anyone knows whats the problem?
    cheers

    The 4.30.7 version is located on the on the UK site.  This is whats loaded on the new WRT54GL's shipped from the California warehouse.
    4.30.5
    4.30.7
    If you are not comfortable with loading the .7 I included the link for .5
    As for the slow down.... What is your connection?  Cable or DSL?  Does this happen at certain times during the day or all the time?  Reason I ask is where I live is a new subdivision and more people are moving in.  They are getting cable internet because I can see new networks popping up when I scan.  During the day I get slow speeds as well but early morning and late at night everything goes back to normal.  I really get slow when kids in the neighborhood have the day off from school. 
    I use port 65534 with Azureus.  I port forward 65534 on my router and Azureus works as it should.  I test my ports when I open or close them at ShieldsUp.  When I test 65534 it tells me that it can not detect the port although its open because Azureues uses it to connect.  I remove the port from forwarding and Azureues tells me there is an error and cant connect.

  • Good external HD? Also, problems with wired TM use?

    I have a multi part question here:
    I recently got a new MBP and I want to get an external hard drive to use with Time Machine. Is there any sort of consensus on which external hard drives generally work well? I have a 500 GB Western Digital MyBook that has been a constant source of problems. I frequently am unable to eject it and have had to use Disk Utility many times just to get my (old Powerbook G4) computer to see it. I really don't want to get another WD product. Are there any consistently good products out there?
    Also, I've just been perusing this forum. I see many people suffering with Snow Leopard and TM using wireless backup. Have there also been many problems with wired backups? I don't use wireless at home, which is where I will keep my TM backups.
    Finally, I move my computer around a lot so I won't have it plugged into its TM drive most of the time. I plan on plugging it in each evening before I go to sleep. Is that an appropriate method of using TM?

    That's why I'd recommend backing-up more often, but if you don't, another app may be better.
    CCC or SD are most often used to make full "bootable clones." When your hard drive fails (and
    they all do, sooner or later), you can boot and run from them immediately; with TM, you need to
    have the disk replaced (or have another external) to restore your system to.
    If anyone is going to take action based on the advice above (or other suggestions) they will need to recognize there is a different set of risks.
    When you make a clone of a machine you end up with a clone and you can boot from it.
    If you then make a fresh clone a day later you really need to have a different disk around or you are taking a lot of risk. The process of creating the new clone might fail. If it does and you do not have a second drive then you have lost the previous clone while creating the newer clone. In other words you have no backup.
    You really should have a series of disk drives so you can put a few good ones on the shelf while making a new copy. You might want to think about where you store them.
    Even when using TM you have to think about what will happen if the TM device fails.
    Conclusion?
    Some people do not make backups.
    Some people store only files they think are critical on a server in a cloud (like leaving emails on the Google server for gmail).
    Some make a back up to TM under the assumption they are really protecting against a failure with their computer but not a fire or other site wide problem.
    Some will use TM for backups and still use CC or similar to make a clone every so often. The failure states can vary so incremental backups make sense for some problems and a bootable close covers some other risks.
    If a person is really worried then a series of backups are needed with off-site storage for some or all of backups. That way the computer's data is protected from a local problems and from a site wide problem.
    Each person can choose what they want to do, what they afford and how they will contain or reduce the risks. Maybe not all risks are worth dealing with. Just think it through before you commit to a solution.

  • Connecting two external speakers

    hi
    i have one small question: is there any real harm into connecting two external speakers directly to the mac without the help of an amplifier?
    will there be any problems?
    thanx for replying

    I did actually hook 'em up, without the amplifier and it does work with an acceptable level of sound(sounds quite nice) but i need to know whether this will har my mac in the long run.
    I have two JBL column speakers.

  • Caused error -3256 when attempting to connect to external speakers.

    I'm trying to connect to my Airport express using a PC running Windows XP home Edition SP 3 with iTunes 8.0.2 and getting the following error
    caused error -3256 when attempting to connect to external speakers.
    I've searched on teh internet and everything seems to relate to the Mac OS.
    Anyone running XP had similar issues?
    My AirportExpress is running FM 6.3
    Thanks

    After reading this discussion thread, I've seemed to have solved the problem for myself. I'm using the Trend Micro PC-Cillin Firewall. I disabled it and the airtunes worked. So, I went into the firewall settings. There's the ability to edit the profile and add to an exceptions list. You select the executable program, select incoming or outgoing, I accepted the other default settings and it worked.

  • Problem with JCo Connection Pool

    Hi,
    I have a problem with using an RFC Model in my WebApplication. So sometimes the access to the function block works, and sometimes it doesn't work. Now I know, that there is a problem with the connection pool. Look at this message:
    com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (106) JCO_ERROR_RESOURCE: Connection pool WD_X24_MODELDATA_DEST_CPIC_REKTO_DE_useDefinedUser is exhausted. The current pool size limit (max connections) is 10 connections.
    So it looks like a problem with closing the JCo Connections after using. Do know where the problem is? Because I'm using many other function blocks with no problems.

    Hello,
    You need to increase the pool size via Visual Administrator.
    Server 0 -> Services -> JCO RFC Connections.
    Change the pool size from there. I believe a restart is in order.
    Regards,

  • Every time I try and update my iphone 4 to ios 7.1 in iTunes 11.1.5 it says "connection reset" even when there is no problem with my connection

    I have an iPhone 4. I use iTunes 11.1.5 on my Mac. I am trying to update to ios 7.1 through iTunes, but every time I do that, I get a "connection reset" error, even when I know there has been no problem with my connection.
    The exact error message is as follows:
    "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "Anne's iPhone". The network connection was reset.
    Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later."
    I have checked several times. There is no problem with the connection, and I have tried to download the software several times today.
    Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

    Just managed to successfully download the update, having retried five or six times. I did unplug my phone while the download was taking place (had asked iTunes to download only, not to update) -- suspect this had no bearing on it whatsoever, and that persistence is the only way here.

  • Problems with Document Connect

    I have a problem with Document Connect. I am unable access office live workspace.
    I have been on the help line with microsoft but they were unable to help.
    Then I went to an apple store and was informed by one of the sales assistance that Document Connect never worked with the apple. Well what was the point in having it then?

    I wish I knew what Document Connect is. I'd bet I could fix it. Not really, but what is it?

    Hi ..
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If nothing above has helped, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • There is a problem with this connection's security certificate The remote computer cannot be authenticated due to problems with its security certificate. Security certificate problems might indicate an attempt to fool you or intercept any data you send

    Hi,
    I have this Windows 2008 R2 on which I installed remoteapp some years ago.
    Now the certificate expired and I get the message
    "There is a problem with this connection's security certificate
    The remote computer cannot be authenticated due to problems with its security certificate.
    Security certificate problems might indicate an attempt to fool you or intercept any data you send to the remote computer."
    How should I renew the certificate? I already went to certification store and tried to renew certificate with same key but then it says "the request contains nor certificate template information".
    Please advise.

    Does the computer account have Enroll permission to the certificate template?
    From the Server running your CA, run mmc, click File then Add/Remove Snap-in...
    Add Certificate Templates and click OK.
    Find the certificate template, then right click and select properties.  On my CA its call ed RemoteDesktopComputers but might be called something different depending on what what template your certificate is based on.
    On the security tab, click Oblect types, check Computers then OK. Enter the Computername and click OK.  Then give your computer account Enroll permisssion.
