T430 docking station compatibility

I just ordered a Thinkpad T430 and am considering getting one of the 4337 or 4338 docking stations.  If the T430 were not docked, would any of these docking stations support "docking" my wife's Dell Latitude via a USB cable connection?

There are two versions of the 4337 dock listed on that page. One is listed as compatible, while the other is listed as not including the T430.
You should get the 4337 dock with the usb 3.0 port, but the old 4337 dock is also compatible, but the eSATA port on the dock won't work with your machine.

  • T430 Docking Station Compatability

    Hi,
    Will the T430 work with older docking stations that were designed for the T420?  The Lenovo support website only lists it being compatable with the newer docking stations that include USB 3.0. 
    Thanks for the help!

    Yes it will, but without the benefit of USB 3.0 on the dock.

  • Docking station compatibility

    I have a Bush docking station CSPK10i.  It charges my ipod touch  but I can't play music as when the ipod is dockd the volume slider won't work. as soon as I take it out of the docking station I have sound again.  ipod works in other docking stations ok.  Is there a compatibility problem with Bush products or is there a fix I can apply?  It has worked fine until I upgraded o/s.

    Sometimes this works:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    Sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility. In that case yo will have to wait for an iOS update or an update tot he firmware for the dock. Have you went to the dock manufacture's support site?

  • T430 docking stations - which one should I get?

    I am getting ready to start a new job that allows me to provide my own laptop.  I want to setup a dock for my T430 with one monitor.
    Does anyone have a favorite docking station - it appears that 3 or 4 work. they look the same to me....
    I wonder if WIDI works well enough for a second extended monitor.
    Thanks!

    Bump - can anyone offer any advice?

  • Docking Station compatability for 8730W and 8560P - KP081AA?

    Hello -
    I'm using a KP081AA for my 8730W with no issues even though it isn't listed as being compatible. I need to use a 8560P on this docking station as well. Will it work also?
    Thanks -
    Ty

    Neither is on the official compatibility list but without seeing the laptop it is hard to say if the docking connector is the same on the two laptops. I would do a google image search on the 8560p and see if the dock connector looks the same as the 8730w.

  • T410 Docking Station Compatibility

    I just ordered a new T410 to replace a T61.  I have an advanced docking station, Type 2503, will this docking station work with the T410?  Thank you.

    After doing a little more research, I noticed the Lenovo site shows the Hardware Compatibility for the Advanced Dock and it lists the T400 - All Models.  Am I wrong to consider the T410 a model variant of the T400?

  • T430 Docking station sleep issues

    I have a t430 running Windows 8.  I can set the sleep mode when the T430 is not docked but when the computer is docked, it goes into sleep mode in less than 5 minutes if the computer is being used. 
    I have tried to adjust the setting and they work when undocked but have no effect when in the docking station. 
    It is a major problem as I am sometimes connected to the company server and it kicks you out in sleep mode and you have to login again.  The server is not the issue as it does it when not connected to the server also.

    >> Will the T430 work with older docking stations that were designed for the T420?
    Yes it will, but without the benefit of USB 3.0 on the dock.

  • New iOS update = no docking station compatability...!!

    After the 6.1 iOS update my iPhone4 no longer works with my iLive docking station. It doesn't charge or play my music through the dock's speakers. I tried restarting my phone and it still doesn't work. I put a friend's iPod on the dock and that worked fine. So I know it has something to do with this update. Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions?? This is really frustrating...

    I have the same issue with a philips  AJ7040D. just purchased from amazon. The dock alarm clock does not recognize my iphone 4s with ios 6.1.1. Error : "this accessory is not supported by iphone" message shows up on the iphone. Called Philips support and they said the  AJ7040D is no longer compatable with 6.1.1.

  • Xb4 Notebook Media Docking Station Compatibility?

    I am in the market for a new laptop. I bought and have loved using the HP xb4 Notebook Media Docking Station. I would like to buy a new HP laptop that will allow me to continue using the docking station.
    What new HP laptops are compatible with the HP xb4 Notebook Media Docking Station?

    Hi,
    The good news is, it compatible with all laptops which have USB 2.0 ports (you can use USB 3.0 port but won't get USB 3.0 speed):

  • Docking Station Compatability

    I was just given a XB2000 docking station and I have a HP ZD8000 laptop but they don't connect to each other and I was wondering if there is an adapter that would make that possible?

    I need an adapter for my xb2000 docking station as I upgraded my laptop.  Newer laptop has a type "3" port and older docking station has type "2" port connection.  I see some folks selling adapters for old laptops to newer docking stations, but I need the opposite.
    PC = type 3 connection.
    Docking station = type 2 connection.
    Any ideas?  I have been searching all over for this.
    Thank you!

  • Elitebook 8530w Docking Station Compatibility

    I'm trying to find out from an 8530w owner how well their machine fits in a 2008 dock (preferably the 2008 advanced dock).
    I find that my laptop pulls off easily from the right hand side without pressing the release button. I've tried the same machine on a few other docks at work (all 2008 advanced docks) with the same result. The left hand clip seems to engage well (I can't pull the laptop off the dock even with moderate force), but a very mild tug on the right side of the machine causes it to come free.
    There are no obvious obstructions I can see on the base of the laptop so I'm at a loss as to why this happens.
    Given that I expect to be able to lock my laptop in my dock, this is obviously a security issue.

  • T500 - what docking stations fit?

    Hi All,
    Since the introduction of the new T500, information about docking station compatibility has not yet been updated on the site - what docking stations fit the T500? Same ones as T61?
    I want to get the Advanced Mini-Dock hence need confirmation that this will fit the T500.
    Thanks, MtothaJ

    ffarzin, welcome to the forum,
    unfortunately not
    There was a change in the power supply between the T4*/R5*/X4* (pre 2007) and the *6 systems; this was one of the reasons that the earlier docking solutions don't fit current models, using the wrong one would be a very quick way to "brick" a system.

  • Docking Station T430, Graphic interfaces from notebook and docking station usable at once?

    Dear community,
    I have a Thinkpad T430 and I want to use two external monitors.
    The Thinkpad T430 has just one mini Displayport and I do not want to use the VGA port.
    So I thought about buying a docking station.
    But there are several ones.
    I just need an additional (Miini)Display or DVI port.
    The question is, if I buy a docking station
    which provides an addition Mini Display Port or an additional DVI port am I able to use the one from the docking station and the notebook's integrated mini display port?
    Thanks for your help.
    Kind regards
