What cord can I buy to hook up my SCSI port scanner to my MacBook USB port?

I have an older Microtek X6 EL scanner that I want to connect to my MacBook via a USB port.  Right now all that is on the scanner is a SCSI port.  I need to find a cord with a SCSI connector (it would be the male piece 25 pin) on one end and a USB 2.0 port on the other end.  I tried Amazon and even ordered one that looked right.  But it wasn't large enough to connect.  Obviously I want one that is Mac compatible but I also run a virtual machine with Windows on my MacBook so I can live with a Windows version if I have to.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Apple dropped the SCSI port for USB and FireWire in 1999.
did find this one on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Cables-To-Go-22429-Adapter/dp/B000067RWK/ref=pd_sim_sbs_e_ 1  It's a 25 pin SCSI to USB, Windows only.
Here's a 25 pin female to 50 pin male SCSI adapter. http://www.amazon.com/QVS-HPCen50-MicroCen50-Female-Adapter/dp/B0044B6XJS/ref=sr _1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1335833278&sr=1-6

    What kind of cord do I buy to hook up my MacPro to my television monitor? And where does it plug in?

    Thanks, Matt. I have a laptop, so it looks like I need a mini-DP to HDMI adaptor that supports sound and a plain HDMI cable. Do I have that right???

    P.S. You're corresponding w an idiot writer here who only uses word processing, but it is SOOO much easier to do the few things I need to do on the Internet w my MAC. I was told over and over by other writersit would be better, and they were right. (Although there are a few issues for writers with the MAC.)

  • What product can I buy that will provide portable power to my MacBook Pro and iPhone and iPad when I am flying?

    What product can I buy that will supply portable power to my MacBook Pro, iPhone and iPad when I am flying?
    I recently was on an extended trip and the port for charging at my seat was not working.

    Unfortuntly you can't.
    The Apple Airline adapter is only meant to keep a fully charged battery from draining, however with newer computers requiring more power, they tend to drain the battery AND the power at the same time, thus require more power hook up without the computer running to charge the battery.
    Since your iPhone and iPad charge off USB, that's going to drain the MacBook Pro battery as well.
    To generate enough power to charge all three will require a portable generator which of course can't be used on a plane.
    The best you can do is have all three charged up before you board the plane, and use each for as long as you can.

    To connect to the TV?  For that you need an HDMI cable.  The TV needs an HDMI socket.

  • 2008 Mac Mini - what webcam can I buy for this computer?????

    OMG help me. I have a 2008 Mac Mini - I need to skype and have tried a few webcams that either just don't work or there is no sound - I understand it nees to be the correct kind for mac... so what webcam can I use on this computer I've been researching for days and can't seem to find any definitive answers anywhere online.... what webcam can I buy for a mini mac 2008??

    Try this:
    http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Widescreen-Calling-Recording-960-000694/dp/B004FH O5Y6
    Works for me and Skype, anyway. 
    The microphone will have to be built-in to the camera and USB-connected - like the one above (and NOT a pink 3.5mm plug!)
    You also sure you're selecting the correct audio input on the webcams you've already tried?

  • What router can I buy to be compatible with my ATT Uverse service?

    What router can I buy to be compatible with my ATT Uverse service?I would like a fairly fast moderately priced one. My current router does not work and I prefer to own the router than rent from them.

    You may purchase any router you desire, preferably a dual band, and place behind the Uverse RG in either DMZ mode for pace/2 wire products or IP Pass through for Arris/Motorola products. However you must have a Uverse RG for actual connection due to certificate authorized service.Resulting in the need for the company owned/maintained equipment fee, currently $7 per month, for new installations and repairs of existing accounts requiring the RG replacement.

  • What cords do i need to hook up my macbook to my tv?

    what cords do i need to purchase in order to watch movies from my macbook to my tv?

    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. Check your TV manual to see if it has audio plgs that work with one of the HDMI ports.
    With the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody there is an adapter that uses the Mini DisplayPort and a USB port to combine video and audio to HDMI. It's only 2 channel stereo not 5.1 Dolby Surround.

  • Where can I buy a larger hard drive for my late 2008, 15" macbook pro?  From reviewing questions and answers on the support community it would appear that having Apple remove the old and install the new hard drive is recommended.  But how/where?

    Where can I buy a larger hard drive for my late 2008, 15" macbook pro?  From reviewing questions and answers on the support community it would appear that having Apple remove the old and install the new hard drive is recommended.  But how/where?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can install the new hard disk yourself if you want to. You just need a 2'5" SATA II hard drive, which is compatible with your MacBook Pro. You can buy one at OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/ You can filter hard drives by computer, so press a "Click to view all...", choose your computer in the sidebar and it will give you the compatible hard drives.
    There are different brands for the MacBook Pro. The most recommended are HGST and Seagate, which have good reputation. A 7200 rpm hard drive will give you extra performance

  • What cords do I need to hook up my mac book pro to a Toshiba 32 T.V.

    I'm trying to find out if anyone can help me with finding out what accessories I might need to hook up my mac to my toshiba 32 T.V. I could probably use a little guidence when it comes to istallation as well.

    Assuming you have a recent MBP, i.e. purchased new in the last couple of years, and that your TV is modern one with HDMI inputs then you need a mini-displayport to HDMI cable.  Apple have one:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/H7128ZM/A/mini-displayport-to-hdmi-cable-2m?fn ode=MTY1NDA3Ng&s=topSellers
    Installation involves connecting up the cable, then it's pretty much plug-and-play. The MBP should auto-detect your TV and you're good to go!

  • Can't buy iphoto in app store; another apple id on my macbook bought it before

    Hello, i bought a used macbook air. after deleting the pre owners' admin account and deleting the harddisk i install OS X lion again. After that i wanted to buy iphoto in app store to use photostream on my macbook. But in the app store it wasn't possible to buy. The button says only "accept" and when i click on it i have to login with my apple id. after this a notification windows opens which says i'm not able to accept because another apple id (from pre owner) bought it before. i don't know his id  or password. but there is no possibility to buy it again in the store. it's just to accept but doesn't work...

    You will also find the Mac OS X Lion on your new-to-you Mac is tied to the previous owner's Apple ID. The two of you together need to contact Apple Care and request that Mac OS X Lion and the bundled iLife apps be releaed from his Apple ID, so that they can be accepted into your Apple ID.

  • I want to change from the US iTunes store to the Australian iTunes store but I have to spend all of my iTunes store credit, what the **** can I buy with 60 cents?

    I want to change from the US iTunes store to the Australian iTunes store but i have to spend all of my iTunes credit first, what the **** will I spend 60 cents on?  Should I have purchased unwanted music to the exact value to change country?  Why cant I just agree to wipe the credit? it's less than one dollar.  Why can't I just transfer it at going market rates (or even cent for cent) when it is only such a small amount and I would make a profit?  I don't want to start another iTunes account, it will only lead to problems with what I have already purchased.

    You cannot.
    You cannot use another countrys itunes store.
    You must be physically locates inside the borders of a country to use that countrys itunes store and a credit card issued in that country with a valid billing address in that country.
    The owners of the distribution rights of movies/music/etc differ by country.  These distributors decide who can sell their content in that country.
    Buy from another source if your countrys itunes store does not carry somehting that you want.

  • What camcorders can I buy to support Final cut pro.

    My price range is up to $500. I need a good camcorder that is compatible with final cut pro.

    Depends what compatible means. THe Canon HV40 is tape based and is still available for $600. That's records to HDV and can be edited natively in FCP.
    As to other formats, nearly any camera will work OK with FCP, although I would avoid those that record directly to DVD.
    Virtually all other consumer choices today use AVCHD, which needs to be transcoded via Log & Transfer. Here is a list from Apple that is a few years old. Many of these models are no longer on the market, but you can find their nearest equivalent. One camera that isn't on the list are those made by GoPro. If you're active in sports like skiing, surfing, or biking and want to record action, look into their equipment.
    Good luck.

  • I have a 2006 macbook pro. What cords would I need to hook it up to my HDTV?

    I already have the hdmi cable.

    What are the system requirements that your new Adobe softare requires? If the new software requires 16GB of ram for example, then no you can't upgrade your computer to meet the requirements. Tell us what the sogtware system requirements are then we can tell you if you can upgrade to meet the requirements.

  • Need component video in - what adapter can I buy?

    Here's the deal. We have a flip video camera whose usb "arm" totally broke off. The camera is in good working order, and has a component so you can connect it to a TV to watch your movies off it. Is there any way I can use this instead of the usb "arm?" I am mainly concerned with getting the movies off of it that had not been transferred to the computer yet.
    Thanks!
    Jerilyn

    A couple of options:
    Roxio Easy VHS to DVD
    or
    Elgato Video Capture
