RCA to iphone cable question.

I'm looking for anyone who might have any advice on this item:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=2703 23357361
I have aux input for my car's stereo and would like to use the cable for charger and stereo input.

It will most likely pass audio to the stereo. It may or may not charge the iPhone depending on the pin that the power is routed. Early dock connectors and some current 3rd party connectors use the Firewire 12v pin to pass the charge current. Newer models use the use the USB pin to pass a 5v charge.
You may find that you need this adapter. It's even sold in Apple Stores (or find it online). $30 or less will do ya.
Here is another adapter that should also work. A decent explanation of the USB/Firewire issue is on the webpage as well.
My older iPod auto interface will pass music to the stereo, but not charge the iPhone. Now it works just fine w/the passPORT.
Best of Luck

  • How do connect an RCA audio/vid cable from my laptop

    How do connect an RCA audio/vid cable from my laptop?
    thanks for any assistance you can offer on the subject

    Depends on what input plug you'll be using on your TV. VGA, DVI or HDMI. You'll need a Mini DisplayPort adapter and a cable from that to your TV. Here's the various types of Mini DisplayPort 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#/ref=nb_sb_ss_sc_2_16?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=mini+ displayport&sprefix=mini+displayport&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Amini+displayport
    If you connect the MacBook using a Mini DisplayPort 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 sound system 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 DisplayPort to HDMI doesn't carry audio unless you have the Mid 2010 model 7,1 and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI.
    If you have the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody or Late 2009 model 6,1 White Unibody with the Mini DisplayPort rather than the Mini-DVI there is an adapter that can combine video and audio to HDMI.

  • Longer iPhone Cable (USB Extension)

    Okay, so I want a longer iPhone cable. I have the 2 meter lightning cable, but I would like to have a longer cable, six feet just isn't doing it. Before I go out (or online) to by one, I have a question about which one would be the better investment. Could I just keep my 2 meter iPhone cable and the get a USB extension cable? I just want to have it plugged into my sound system (carrying the music throught the USB cable) so I can listen to music. Will I still be able to do this if I use an USB extension? If not, do I have to buy a longer iPhone cable? (If I do, is there a certain one that you recomend? I'm looking for something longer than 10 feet).
    Thanks!

    usb is spc'd to max 5 meters between powered hubs
    there is also a limitation of how many powered hubs one can pass

  • How to connect satellite set-top box to Qosmio G50 using RCA video-in cable

    I want to connect my satellite set-top box to my Qosmio G50 laptop using the RCA video-in cable I received with the computer. (yellow, red, white RCAs and a Jack)
    Could you help me where should I plug this cable as I have not found any instructions in the users manual. (The user's manual list this cable on page 21, so it can be used for something somehow for sure!)
    (The set-top box does not have coaxial output, and I do not want to include another machine (eg. an old VCR) just to use coaxial connection.)
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Sandor.

  • IPhone Cable Cracked

    I noticed today that my iPhone cable has cracked right behind the connector that goes to the USB piece. The cable still works but I was wondering would this be covered under the warranty? Would I be able to go to an Apple Store to get a replacement or get one from the Apple site if it was covered under warranty?
    Would there be any third party alternatives?

    If I bought the phone at a Best Buy store would I be able to go to an Apple Store to get it replaced? Would it be necessary to set up an appointment with a Genius or would this be something that could be taken care of on a walk in basis?
    Thanks.

  • IPhone Cable....(dangerous?)

    Is anyone else having this problem with their iPhone cable?
    The wires are starting to show on mine and I don't really move my syncing port that much, only when I travel, I roll up the cable.
    Is this dangerous?

    Hey,
    You can request repair or replacement of iPhone accessories online here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do
    You can also make a reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple retail store take a look at it or call AppleCare.

  • Ipad Cable Question

    Hi, Is the Ipad cable the same as the Iphone cable? I'm referring to the cable that allows you to sync and charge when plugged into your computer. I don't want to accidentally plug the iphone cable into the ipad if they're different cables. Thanks

    Functionally they are the same. Some have said that the ones that came with the iPhone 4 are a bit smaller on the 30 pin end but I didn't notice that (I haven't measured to see). I use my iPad cable, iPhone 3G/iPhone 3GS/iPhone 4 cables, and various 3rd party cables interchangeably.

  • Why wont my laptop acknowledge my iphone cable?

    Why wont my laptop acknowledge my iPhone cable? i have a Medion laptop (so no not a mac etc) but i recently broke the screen on my iPhone 5S and subsequently i cannot back the iPhone up to my laptop as when plugged in to 1 of three various USB ports it does not acknowledge the cable.
    thanks.

    thanks!
    i did try it before when the iphone was usable and it still did not work, ive just tried it with my ipad and ive tried various cables but still no result. im thinking it will be something to do more with my laptop itself, maybe something to do with its setting, is there any ways around this?
    thanks! :-D

  • HT4327 can you sync stuff to an ipad using an iphone cable?

    Itunes sync is saying the apps failed to install and its loads of them

    The iPhone cable does not matter. It is universal. The problem would be directly from the iPad software and the iTunes software. Shut down both the iTunes software and the iPad software by fully shutting down the iPad and iTunes. Then restart both and initiate your sync again.

  • Laptop shut down and won't start up after using a Gecko iPhone cable?

    I plugged in a gecko iphone cable to a usb port on my MacBook Pro and now it won't start up?

    Hello esterke,
    As I understand it you are not able to turn your phone on, and the power button doesn't work so you cannot turn it on that way. You may be able to get it back on by putting it into Recovery Mode, which only requires the USB connection and a working Home button. 
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If not your phone may need service:

  • Iphone cable and itunes sign after update to 6.0

    It had a picture of a iphone cable and itunes sign prior maybe I need to plug it into itunes.
    Solution?

    When I got the "connect to itunes" screen I connected to iTunes and restored. Then when I plugged it back into the TV it still showed me the same "connect to itunes" with the flashing led. I did this twice to no avail. Then I just disconnected the power and reconnected and then it rebooted. I thought maybe I should have done that in the first instance itself. Hence the suggestion to disconnect power and reconnect when the "connect to itunes" is displayed. But it looks like maybe you have to really connect to iTunes.
