Recommendations for a Docking station for Classic?

I'm looking for recommendations:
I have a Ipod classic and would like to connect it to my Onkyo home stereo receiver; I basically want to replace my old 200 disc CD changer
Note: The docking station must also charge the ipod.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thank you,......

Thanks for the link.
Hadn't seen that review, but it matches what I conclude about that particular model - there's still lots of connecting & disconnecting to do. It has only one USB port docked, and another one sitting up top. I have many items I'll be attaching via USB, such as Wacom, backup drive, external drive for photos, mouse. And would prefer a Powered version so I don't have to connect the power cord each time either. And if you notice that video, he shpws his desktop consisting on nothing but a keyboard & a monitor. So with the lid closed on the MBA, how's he move the cursor around? Missing a mouse there. (Yes - he could have a wirelesss mouse, but personally, I find a wired mouse much better - but he has NONE.
Hoping to find someone who has actually used one.
From my research, it seems the Landing Zone MAY do what I want, but I can't get answers from them to questions. They have units for 2012 - 2013 MBA's, but I don't see anything on their site about the 2014 model I have.
And there's a few other brands out there - but seeking real life experiences.

Syncing Classic with USB killed docking station for my Nano

I have two libraries in Itunes, one for music and one for books. I use my Nano for music. After I organized a second library for books, I bought a Classic. It uses a USB cable. After my first hookup of the Classic, syncing the book library. The firewire docking station for my Nano no longer will connect that Ipod to Itunes. I can charge, but not sync. Is this a new feature from Apple or does Itune now only recognize Ipod thru the USB port? I can sync the Nano with USB, but I like the docking station

I do not think that your USB docking station is faulty. I use it all the time.
What killed my ipods (resulting in exactly your problem) was the update to firmware 1.1.2. I am on my fifth !! ipod classic (courtesy of technical support/ genius bar at the apple store) as they are not as solid as the older models and
may go wrong quicker, despite much more enhanced functions. Touch wood mine is working fine now.
In the mean time, you could try a hard/factory reset of your ipod:

Interesting may also be "hidden" ipod commands:

Hope you can sort it.

What adapter do I need for my ipod Nano 7th Generation to connect to a Sony home docking station (30 pin). I purchased the one recommended (Lightning to 30 pin adapter), but it says 'this accessory is not supported by this device)?

Could someone please tell me the correct lead I need for an Applie Ipod 7th Generation 16GB for a Sony docking station. I bought a Lightning to 30 pin adaptor that fits the dock but not the ipod (this was recommended to me by someone from the Apple shop believe it or not). I need one that will fit the ipod and then slot into the 30 pin dock. The dock pulls out and my old ipod (5th Generation) just slotted straight in, but this slot obviously doesn't fit. It would really help if someone can recommend what I need to use or even if there is one that just slots in or whether I need some sort of cable and can't use the docking station. I've had a lock at the Apple store but just keep getting confused about what does what and can't seem to see anything unless I need an additional cable to slot into the 30 pin adapter I already have?
HELP - CONFUSED.COM!

If it is a lightning to 30 pin adaptor, and you have a 7th Generation Nano it has to fit the Nano.
This is lightning to 30 pin adapter: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Apple%26%23174%3B---Lightning-to-30-Pin-Adapter/6651 936.p?id=1218803450821&skuId=6651936#tab=overview
Is this what you bought?
You need to contact Sony and see if they model you have is compatible with the docking adapter. It may not be.

Recommended docking station for T430

Searched Lenovo.com but it has no specific listings for T430. Looking for a dock that would give me a dual monitor setup.
Also, I only have the integrated HD4000 card, can I still get dual video from the dock?
thanks!

This docking station should be compatible with your T430: ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 It doesn't list the T430 but I am showing it to be compatible. Your HD4000 card should be able to support two monitors as well.
There are four other docks that should work with the T430:
• ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3 – 4337-10U
• ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3 with USB 3.0 – 4337-15U
• ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 – 4338-10U
• ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 with USB 3.0 – 4338-15U
As I understand it the regular docks have 1 VGA, 1 DVI and 1 DisplayPort while the Plus version has 1 VGA, 2 DVI and 2 DisplayPort. In all cases however you can only use any two of the ports at the same time to drive two external displays. So you would need the Plus version only if you wanted to use 2 of the same port type simultaneously.

I just bought a docking station for my iPad so I could plug into a mixing board and record a live show. I was disappointed at the time limitation for the recordings. What is the maximum amount you can record a song into GB for the iPad?

I purchased a docking station for my iPad so that I could record a live recording of my band directly from a mixing board this weekend using GarageBand. Unfortunately, I was unaware of the song length limitations of the iPad version of this program. Basically, was unable to capture more than 15 minutes of the gig. I've read other conversations on this forum and can't really determine the maximum amount of time this application can record. Can anyone tell me how long GarageBand for ipad can record at one single time and how to adjust the settings to achieve this? Also, is anyone aware of any other apps than could be used to record a longer please share. Thanks.

I received an email reply from George, the Founder and CEO of Studiomini, he indicated to me that their app does not have any time limitations in regards to recording like GB does, you are only limited by the amount of free space on your iPad. Fo what it's worth, I think the Alesis IO Dock is an amazing piece of equipment. I would highly recommend purchasing the IO Dock and plugging your mixing board into the dock to capture your rehearsal. Hopefully the feedback I received from Studiomini is accurate and I can capture my entire rehearsal at one time. I hope this feedback helps. One last note, apparently their will be a update soon to view Studiomni in the landscape view on the iPad instead of just the portrait view.

Need expansion port 3 docking station for dv6-1211ax for home use .... suggestions please ...

i have a dv6-1211ax laptop and planning to get a hp expansion port 3 based docking station for home use ... can anyone suggest or comment on how they really perform ..

I have a pair of HP XB4 Notebook Media Docking Stations being used on two DV7s. I think they work quite well, unlike the current docking stations they use the expansion port 3 and you can power both the laptop and the docking stations from a single power supply. Speaker sound especially subwoofer is much better than the laptops (these are 2009 and 2010 model DV7s so they have the Altec Lansing speakers (as does the docking station) vs. the 2011 laptop Beats Audio.
I also like the way the docking station raises the laptop 6-8 inches above desk level.
Do make sure your system is using the expansion port 3 though since at least some of the 2011 systems no longer have the expansion port (the connection from the station to the laptop is via USB 2.0 hopefully at some time the new docking stations will be updated to use USB 3.0) along with the laptops.
For a laptop that is being used a Desktop replacement I would highly recommend the XB4
p.s since HP doesn't sell them anymore you may have to go to Ebay, Amazon or a wholeseller)

Who has a good docking station for ThinkPad Edge E545?

I want to dock my E545 (Windows 8.1) if someone can recommend a docking station brand+model that works. Suggestions?

True, the Thuderbold display is good, but it doesn't give me that FULL desktop experience with all the other peripherals, etc like this does for my Lenovo:

What docking station do i use for the envy4-2014

i have a envy4-2014 that i wanted to use a docking station with
i purchased the HP2005 USB
The attached monitor will not work.
any idea what i need.

Hi,
Thank you for the information.
Looking at the specifications for your modle, I noticed that it's USB ports are 3.0. The docking station that you got is 2.0. That alone could be what's caused the issue. On that note I've located a sales page with several listed on it, and some 3.0's are on that page. As far as my recommendation, you want one that is 3.0 compatible for your computer, beyond that as I'm not familiar with docking stations and do not handle sales you may want to call support, or the number on the websites page.

Recommendations for speaker/charge dock for new iPod Nano 5th generation 8g

I have searched and searched for a speaker/charging combo dock for my new iPod Nano 5th generation 8gb player. None of them specifty they work with this latest iPod version.
Any recommendations?

I think I have the same question more or less. I bought a cheap Best Buy memorex speaker docking station and I need a male to female IPOD cable so that I can Play the radio and charge the IPOD at the same time as well of course have the head phone jack plugged into the Line In that acts as the antenna.
So if I had the Male to Female cable My dock would charge and the cable to the line in acts as a Antenna. I think this makes sense..

Software for HDD docking station

Hi!
I have Rosewill USB 3.0 hdd docking station and Macbook Pro 2012.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182269
I want to create a backup of my current HDD or create an image of the drive. Next, I want to transfer the drive image to the empty SSD.
Do I need any software to clone my HDD from Macbook Pro?
What soft would you recommend?

You can just use Disk Utility. I, however, prefer Carbon Copy Cloner for cloning devices (and to be honest, the only reason I do prefer CCC is becasue it's fast and idiot-proof).
They have a 30-day free trial. Then you can decide whether to buy or not. I use it as one of my backup schemes so I bought it.

HP Docking Station EN488AA - part number for power adapter

Hi,
I have a HP Compaq nx8220 notebook, with a HP Docking Station (EN488AA).
Unfortunately I have lost the power supply for the docking station.
I still have the power supply for the notebook itself (393955-001) but it does not plug in to the docking station. It is the correct voltage but only 90W instead of 120W, and the connector is the wrong size.
I've been looking online for the part number for the correct replacement power supply for the dock, but became very confused when I found sites advertising the same replacement part for both the nx8220 and the EN488AA when clearly they are different because the plugs don't match. None specify the plug size so I don't know which is which.
Can anyone help me identify the correct replacement part? Or better still, is there a plug adapter available so I can use my existing power supply for the dock too?
Attached are two photos - the plug from the power adapter next to the inlet of the notebook (fits) and the dock (doesn't fit).
Thanks,
EddieD97
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The pin in picture looks liek a 5mm pin and one one on docking station is a smart pin. So you would need something like the one in picture in this link.
In the picture observe the component in left hand bottom corner.

I would say, take the adaptor to store and get one.
Wish you luck,

AC Adapter for HP2400 docking station

I have purchased a HP2400 Ultra Light docking station (used) which was sold without an AC adapter. I want to use it with my HP Elitebook 2530p.
According to HP website, both the 2400 docker and 2530 notebook use the External 65W Smart AC Adapter. So, for the docking station, can I use the power adapter which belongs to my notebook (it fits)?
If I can't, what is the part number for the AC adapter I need to power the 2400 docking station?
Thanks.

Do I need a 12oW or 230W adapter?
