Replace Male-Male Cable With Wireless?

As a gift, I'd like to replace the male-male cable my boyfriend uses to connect his Garmin GPS to his Aviation headset (with an aux. input); he uses this feature only to listen to music. Does anyone know a wireless way to do this? I know the headset is Bluetooth capable, but I talked to Customer Service at Bose and they informed me that the bluetooth feature does not work in place of the aux. input - only for standard aviation systems.
Thanks!

Hello NMT 2012,
My name is Devon and I'd be happy to try and help you out today. I'd like to make sure I am understanding you correctly.
You want a wireless way for your boyfriend to hear everything on a headset that he would hear while using an AUX cable, correct? It's correct that the bluetooth will not transmit all the audio from a Garmin device, so unfortunately this cannot be used as a solution.
It sounds like the best solution would be a trasmitter that coverts the aux (plugging into headphone jack on Garmin) to a wireless signal that headphones can then pick up.
Are the headphones he have bluetooth? Can they capture any bluetooth signal?
I apologize for all the questions, I just want to get you the best solution possible.

Worth replacing my telephone cabling with Cat5?

I shall soon be having Infinity installed in my home office to replace ADSL. My office is in a detached building and I have a 20 metre run of bog standard telephone cable from where the BT cable enters my house to the master socket in my office. Am I likely to see any speed benefit by replacing this with Cat5e cable? My house is approximately 300 metres from the fibre cabinet.
Thanks

Hi Disco
As pippincp mentioned, for the network side of things it's best to go for CAT6 to future proof your network. For your office network you can ask the BT engineer to install the new master socket as the service enters the house. That way you will get the best possible VDSL signal. The modem should be sited there. The HH3 could be sited there also or in your office connected via the CAT6.
Yes, you could also use CAT5/6 for the telephone connection to your office. I wanted to standardise comms in my house so I installed CAT5 for the phone to another room in the house. I already had the cat5 wired up for the phone extension. The BT engineer installing my infinity was very helpful and wired the CAT5 directly into the backplate (user) connection side.

IBook 12 Dual USB Inverter Cable with Reed Switch

I apologise if this should go on an older thread. The last time I was trying to access what was called the angle of death thread it took so long to load I gave up.
My question is: my G3 iBook 12" 500 is working perfectly as a backup for surfing and using Word, with a fairly new replacement hard drive in it. But it has started the backlight blanking out when the screen is moved through 90 degrees. From a recent post I noticed yesterday that must have been moved, I now understood that the problem was usually, or often, to do with the need to replace the Inverter Cable with Reed Switch. I live in the UK and cannot get this done locally, but an online UK firm agrees this is usually the problem and he can fit the part and do the repair which with labour costs and postage will be not far off £100.
Is it fairly safe now to assume that this part is the root of this problem?
thanks

Thanks for the reply clarifying the matter. In fact it's now been explained to me that with postage plus vat it goes from £31 plus tax for the part, then £75 plus tax for the labour, then £15 plus tax for the postage, which comes to £142 total.
I think I'll try to keep working at 89 degrees for a bit yet then if I have to I'll buy the part and see if I can get a cheaper way to get it installed. Don't trust myself with such a job.

Male to male iphone audio cable with volume

Has anybody found a good quality male-male audio cable with volume control? This is for an iPhone 5

if you mean an 3.5mm minijack cable then you would require an external power source to inc the volume it play

Lightning male to male cable?

Hi guys, I am upgrading sound/video in my car to be compatible with an iphone 5s and am in need of a lightning male to male cable. Let me explain...
Inside the dash, I'll be installing an hdmi to composite video adaptor. That will be fed by the apple lightning to hdmi adaptor. I will be extending that with a lightning female to female so that I can flush mount the 8 pin connector so I don't have an 8 pin male connector sticking out. But to plug the phone into that, I need a male to male cable which I haven't been able to find. If one doesn't exist, I guess I could cut two cables and splice together.
Any thoughts?

HP D110 AIO printer. Prints jam when printing with wireless, but not when hooked to USB cable! HELP!

I have a HP D110. It jams the paper when I print with wireless, but not when I use USB cable. Any ideas?

From what you describe you are having issues printing from MS Office. Have you had trouble printing from other resources on your computer (e.g. from the internet or another program)? The first thing I am going to suggest is that we start by uninstalling and reinstalling the printer from the resources available online.
First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it (this is important). Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer.
In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it.

jpmarkques post is a good start point, after folling his directions, you can try detect displays. Also try different rsolution and refresh rates.
Most of the projectors I have used support a 1024X768 res.
Youcan also try a pram reset if it still does not detect.
Leave theproctor connected and powered up, power down the MBP.
Power back up the MBP and hold the following keys before you hear the start up chime:
Option, command, P,R (no commas) continue to hold these keys till you hear the start up chime 2 times.

Comcast just replaced my cable modem/wireless router. All devices connect properly except my iPhone 4. It shows itself to be connected to the network, but it does not load any web page. Resetting the iPhone does not solve the problem. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your response.
I had rebooted the router (several times, actually), to no avail.
I do not know the answer to whether MAC filtering is enabled on the router. Have tried to find info about that, but unsuccessfully. Router is an Arris TG852G, supplied by Comcast. I would be surprised if MAC filtering were the issue, since in addition to the computer, we have successfully connected several other devices to the wifi, namely an iPad, a Android phone and a Kindle Fire - all able to access internet pages through the wifi, and all without a need to add the device to a MAC address whitelist. To add to the mystery, the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone 4 to my network and access web pages. He was unable to connect my iPhone, however, after trying for some time.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that an iPhone cannot connect to a wireless "n" router, only "b" or "g". The Arris router is described as a n/g/b compliant router, and as noted the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone, so don't know why that would be the issue here.
By the way, my iPhone does connect wirelessly to my network at home. This difficulty is at a second home.
Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

Can I replace the FiOS D-Link Wireless Router with an AEBS?

I have FiOS and the Verizon supplied D-Link Wireless a/g router that came with the service. I've been happy as a clam with the service but I just bought my first Mac (a 15" MBP) and an AEBS. Ideally it would be nice to replace the D-Link with the AEBS. I tried to do this and everything worked except for FiOS Video On Demand (VOD). It complained about some router issue. So my current setup includes using both the D-Link and the AEBS whereby I have wireless turned off on the D-Link and my AEBS bridged to the D-Link. This seems to be working fine in that wirless to the AEBS is working and my FiOS TV functions are working as expected.
Again, ideally, I'd like to just have AEBS in the mix and take out the D-Link router. Can this be done? It seems the Verizon supplied NIM box likes to only be plugged into the D-Link and not the AEBS.
BTW, I haven't found any definitive posts about how to do this. I've seen posts on the bridging aspect and when an ActionTec router is in the mix but not a D-Link.
Thanks in advance.

Having similar problem - not clear from your post...did you put the Actiontec in bridge mode and the AEBS Connection Sharing to distribute IP addresses? Or is the AEBS in bridge mode? I thought the Actiontec had to handle NAT, DHCP, etc. and the AEBS had to be in bridge mode. If you have the Actiontec in bridge mode and the AEBS doing the DHCP, NAT, etc., can you describe how you have it wired and the settings in more detail? I am trying to extend my network with an Airport Express using my AEBS as the base station, but can't seem to establish the WDS with the AEBS in bridge mode...am stuck right now with the AEBS in bridge mode and dead spots in the farther reaches of my house. Any ideas or help you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Communication Error with wireless router, Works fine with Ethernet cable.

Video iChat is fine when my MBP and other MB's and MBP's are at my house using the Netgear 240 rangemax wireless router. I'm currently running High speed Internet via cable modem through Time Warner Cable. When I try to chat with them while they are at home, I get a communication error. I then tried to use the Ethernet cable hooked up to the cable modem to my MacBook Pro. It worked fine. I would like to use video iChat via my wireless router. I don't understand why it is not working. I think it is my router. Do I need to buy an Airport Extreme Base Station or can I still use this router. Can you possibly help me configure this Netgear router? The internet connection is fine when I use the wireless router.

I have not had very good experiences with the Netgear routers. I can't say that it is the router causing your problem, however, it might be the effective wireless bandwidth over your router. Do a speedcheck and determine the download and upload speed with wireless. Hopefully you're getting about 400Kbps up and 400Kbps down or about 1000Kbps in total.

OK I just transitioned to MacMail, iCal, and Mac address book. Goodbye Outlook, It was great for 18 years and painful for the last year. Microsoft is losing share with subpar software development.

WRT54GS CONNECTION TO MODEM THROUGH USB CABLE WITH AN ETHERNET ADAPTER

The ethernet port on my motorola surfboard modem is damaged but the usb port is fine. I am attempting to connect my WRT54GS (ver 6) router to the modem via a usb cable with a male ethernet adapter. Unfortunately it does not appear that the router is able to accept such an input due to driver or firmware issues. The modem requires me to set up my pc with another driver specifically for the usb connection when i am connected directly. Any suggestions?

Get a new modem, The USB is not meant for that it's meant for wireless network storage.
GoodLuck

Is the airport extreme just a replacment for your cable modem?

What exactly is the airport extreme? I been thinking about buying one but I want to know what does it exactly do. Is it a replacement for your cable modem that creates a wireless network?

No it is not a replacement for your cable modem. Airport Extreme allows you to access the Net wirelessly. Your cable modem gives you your broadband access to the Net, but you have to connect to it via an Ethernet cable (RJ45). If you own a Apple Laptop, like an MacBook you need a wireless connection. Apple’s Airport Extreme gives you this access. Also it comes with the latest wireless speed “n”, verses “g” and “b” before it. In fact it will do all three speeds.
I have a “b” speed desktop system that is connected via an Ethernet cable, and two laptops that use the new “n” speed and one laptop that is running under the “g” speed. The best part is that you can plug a printer or hard-drive via an USB cable and share it with other computers on you home network. Also it very easy to use. If you don’t have a Laptop there is not much use for this product.
