Withings BP-800 - connector

Just purchased a withings bp-800. Does anyone know of a female adapter to usb connection where I could run this directly to my laptop instead of Ipod?  This item is very good, however, it would be nice if they had made the connector to run the same as an Ipod or Iphone where you could backup to your computer instaed of a fixt male connector. 

Hi Vincent/Roey,
Could you guys help me sort a prob, am facing on DMS connector front.
We followed the documentation for dms connector and when we clicked on document explorer all i get is a system error
System Error
An exception occurred during the program execution. Below you will find technical information pertaining to this exception that you might want to forward to your system administrator.
Exception Class:  class com.sap.netweaver.bc.rf.common.exception.IOOperationFailedException

What might have gone wrong ? Could you please advice me on this front ?
Thanks,

  • Is the firewire 800 connector the smaller or larger one?

    I am using a G Drive mobile for backup and wondering whether to use the smaller or larger firewire connectors. Am I right in saying the smaller one is the higher 800 speed? Thanks

  • Firewire 400/800 Questions

    Hello -
    I recently upgraded to a new 24" iMac and noticed that there is only one firewire 400 port (as opposed to my previous G5 which had two.) In my old configuration I had an external drive connected to one of the firewire 400 ports and all of my peripherals (DV camera, card reader, etc.) in the other port.
    Now that there is only one port, and I must daisychain with the hard drive, will I run into a problem when I try to import footage from the DV camera to that external firewire drive? From what I've read only one firewire device should be used at at time and this would obviously be using two.
    I am considering buying a firewire 800 drive as a potential solution and wondered if it would, in fact, be a solution. Also, would a firewire 800 port be that much faster to notice a difference? If so, I might buy one anyway.
    Thank you in advance for your responses and my apologies for not really knowing much about this stuff.

    I have a Core Duo, so I have two FW 400 ports. Thus I'm answering this based on theory, not experience. FW 800 is supposed to support 400 Mbps connections. So you can use the 800 port by getting a cable that has an 800 connector on one end and a 400 on the other. You can definitely use more than one FW device at the same time. However they will share the bandwidth. If they are not designed well, they might possibly interfere, but that shouldn't happen.
    A typical disk drive will deliver about 35 MB/sec. A FW 400 port can handle that. However I've seen some reviews suggesting that with the most recent fast drives (particularly the big ones that bundle several physical drives into one) you may see some performance advantages to FW 800.
    A lot depends upon how you use the drive. If you copy one drive to another, or use large files, you'll get very high speeds. But in normal use, the drive spends most of its time moving the heads around, and you won't see much difference between FW 400 and 800.
    I would be inclined to start by getting a FW 400 to 800 adapter cable and splitting devices across the two ports as you did before.

  • Apple we have a Firewire 800 migration problem!

    Apple might employ the dumbest smart people I know.
    I just bought a brand new MacBook Pro. It looks awesome. And that's about all I can do with the laptop because the only way to do a migration is with firewire 800. Migrating via wireless or either net is worthless. Even though the getting started manual says it will work fine. I had to call Apple support and the person on tech support even said the migration software was horrible. It would have been an awesome idea to think about why someone might want to migrate form an older laptop. Older being 3 years old. The older MacBook Pro only has firewire 400. So now I have to go out and find a 800 to 400 firewire hub. Just brilliant.

    A cable with an 800 connector on one end and 400 on the other is available...no need for a hub. The migration software can be tricky, yes Have a backup!
    As well, your nearest Apple Store provides migration services with purchase I believe..give them a call.

  • Mixing Firewire 800 and 400 on an iMac?

    I have 2 external FW 400 drives on my late 2011 iMac. I use an 800 to 400 adapter. I've been thinking of getting a new external drive from OWC. The have both 400 and 800. The 800 case has 2 800 connectors and one 400. Does it make sense to mix? Will they all run at the slowest in the chain?
    I was thinking of connecting the 800 directly to the iMac using the built-in 800 connection. Then chaining from there using the 400 connection to the other existing 400 external drives. Will I actually get 800 speed on the first drive?
    Thanks

    I have a mixed group of external drives, and just bought a new OWC Mercury quad interface drive.
    The user manual that came with it says:
    Note: If you are using FireWire 800 and add a FireWire 400 device to the chain, all devices will be reduced to FireWire 400 performance
    I tested this myself, which confirmed it. I set up the following chain,  with the first 2 drives connected by FW800, and with a FW400 drive either connected or not connected at the end:
    HD  ----800-----DRIVE1------800------DRIVE2-------400-------DRIVE3
    I booted from my HD and timed the copying of a large file from DRIVE1 to DRIVE2. Although the FW400 drive was at the end of the chain and was never involved in the copying, just having it attached immediately reduced the speed of the file copy from Drive1 to Drive2. The actual speed reduction in practice was about 40%, not 50%.

  • Firewire 800 disk on my G4?

    Through a series of misfortunes, I've ended up with a Firewire 800 disk drive. My G4 Powerbook only has a single Firewire 400 port. Is it possible to use my new disk with the Powerbook somehow?
    I've seen a cable that has a Firewire 400 connector on one end and a Firewire 800 connector on the other. Is THAT a possibility?
    I don't care about the added speed or features that Firewire 800 offers. I'd just like to use the drive.

  • Imac early 2009 firewire 800 port voltage ???

    Hi all,
    Have several Imac intel core duo's 2.66ghz SN: VM933RUD0TH or early 2009
    Having searched and searched and searched for the voltage output for the firewire 800 connector. I cannot find any information at all.
    The Apple official Tech Spec tells me that it is 7 watts but does not give me any amp rating at buss level, so am unable to calculate without having to do a manual test..
    All other sites tell me that standard 800 fw output should be somewhere between 24 volts>30 volts
    We have a 20k piece of kit that needs 12v supply through firewire and it keeps chugging and dying when it is connected to the Imac so am thinking that it isne supplying a full standard current and Apple are cleverly disguising it with 7watt on the tech spec.

    yes this is the problem I am finding, phase one offers a repeater that can multiply the length of cable from 5m to 10m (yippee) @ an additional cost of £800 (second yippee).
    Was trying to find one from alt company but the techy info seems to be a bit thin on the ground from companies that provide this and the prices seem to be skyward - so purchasing them to test the devices becomes prohibitive.
    Phase's work around for laptops + low volt supply is as follows:
    The p30+ and upwards have the ability to force battery power, so that when shooting tethered it pushes additional volts+amps down the line. Once again this is restricted to a 4.5m cable which when shooting tethered is a pain in the proverbial, also eats batt power (additional batts cost £60 each)
    And if you get the configuration wrong in the menu (as our multiple user environment has evidenced) it it kills the batts and the camera..... (we just sent it off for repair hence these posts and research into it)
    I just think that it is a bit of a pain when working with two pieces of kit, which allegedly use universal and standard connections to find that the universality and the standardization is not really there.
    (new I should have gone for a HBlad)

  • Looking for help getting imovie to recognize sony DCR-SR47 camcorder

    Has anyone been able to up load to imovie from sony DCR-SR47 camcorder?

    It depends on which camcorder you have.
    If it records onto miniDV tape (..or "microMV" tape..) then you definitely need to use FireWire; nothing else will do. Buy one at any electronics store; it's called a FireWire or DV or i.Link cable. It must have a teeny 4-pin connector at one end (..to plug into the camera..) and a larger 6-pin connector at the other end (..to plug into your Mac..)
    ..unless you have a new MacBook Pro, which needs a slightly different shaped 9-pin FireWire 800 connector instead of the 6-pin connector.
    You cannot use a USB connection for tape-based camcorders, even if they have a USB socket ..as that's just for transferring stills, not video.
    If your camcorder does NOT shoot onto tape, then you'll need to transfer via USB. That applies for all chip-based and hard-drive based camcorders, and - I think - DVD-based camcorders.
    All current AVCHD camcorders use USB.
    If in doubt (..but there should be no doubt..) read the camcorder's instruction book. If you can't find the instructions, download them from the manufacturer's website ..almost all instructions are available online.
    But if it needs FireWire - if it's a tape-based camcorder - you CANNOT use USB.

  • How can i transfer music and photos from my ibook g4 to my new mac mini?

    the g4 has a firewire 400 and the mini is firewire 800.  IS there 400 to 800 firewire or a male-male usb2 cable out there?  I've tried moving files to my external drive and then moving to the mini but the photos move over as one event. The music moves fine but the 2 step process is slow and tedious.  Is there an easier way?

    Hello,
    Firewire cables with a Firewire 800 connector on one end and a Firewire 400 connector on the other end are common.  For instance, the Belkin 6'/1.8m FireWire 800/400 Cable.

  • How to connect a SATA Drive in a G4 MDD Desktop Mac?

    Due to much more needed harddisk space for music production on my G4 1.25 GHz Dual PC, I ordered and just received a SATA 500 GB internal Harddiskdrive.
    Under "About This Mac" in the System Profiler I get a list of all my internally already connected ATA Drives. But there is also a (empty) category available, named "Serial-ATA" which I strongly assume stands for SATA. I further think once such a category is existing I should be able to connect a SATA drive.
    Now:
    1. Can I connect the new SATA HD internally in my Dual G4 or must I use the Drive as an external Firewire Drive (of course in a special housing)?
    2. If it is possible to built in a SATA drive, must I buy an adapter in any form, because the interface on the SATA drive is different from the cable endings in my Mac?
    3. If so, what is such an Adapter be called (from Inerface A name to Interface B name) and do I get it at an electronic store?
    4. Is there anything crucial I do need to know regarding this matter (maybe voltage compatibility, adjustments on SATA drive or in my Macintosh G4, etc.)?
    5. And if it should not be possible to use the HD internally (as in question 1.), are there housings with Firewire 800 connectors available for SATA drives which I can use?
    I would be very glad for your specialist help! Thank you!

    Thank you all (Malcolm Rayfield · The hatter · Rodney Culling) so very much. I thought I would be lost and stuck - on contrary I got your huge help.
    Unfortunately I bought already the SATA 7200.10 and it had been delivered. But I am very happy to hear that there are PCI SATA cards available and I preferably would like this solution to have the Drive as an internal drive. It is for me easier to tame the noise not having an additional drive in my Mini recording studio.
    I will investigate into the prices of those cards and only do hope that the price for such PCI SATA cards are not to expensive otherwise my bread deliverer (boss) will refuse. He was already not excited to hear I ordered a SATA drive but there was no ATA anymore available at my usual source and if I later upgrade to a G5 I can take the drive with me. I only will have then the reverse situation using some of my older ATA drives in a new G5.
    Thanks a million again for your kind and unexpected fast help. Thanks!

  • Connecting Sony Mini-DV camcorder to Mac..

    I have a Sony Mini-DV camcorder that I'm trying to connect to my Mac so I can save some video i've taken. The Camcorder is about 5 years old. The only output ports it has are: a really small USB, a slightly larger square looking port that says
    i DV under it, and the old yellow audio/video out. I connected the camcorder via a mini usb converter to one of the regular usb ports on the back of my mac and nothing happens. It doesn't even recognize that something has been plugged in... Is there anything I can do to connect this camcorder to my Mac???

    Hi
    A. As Lennart writes but there are in some cases two FW-Cables depending
    on how the FW-port looks on Your Mac
    either a
    • 4-pi to 6-pin FireWire Cable - or -
    • 4-pi to FW-800 connector FW-Cable
    Some new Macs only have the FW-800 port eg MacBook-Pro
    B. On some Cameras You need to look into the Camera menu and set DV-out
    so the Camera port gets active.

  • External iSight not working on iMac, works on Macbook despite same software

    Hello!
    I have an External iSight that when I plug into my Macbook (running latest Mac OS) works just fine with iChat AND Adobe Flash Webchats...
    However, when I plug it into my new iMac, the green light will turn on, but the it doesn't show on ANY applications that there is an External iSight available.
    The only difference is that I am connecting the iSight with an 4 to 8 pin adapter: When I plug it in, it acts the same as it does with the MacBook--the green light turns on, it makes a sound, and is ready for usage. However, I can't get it to work with any programs on my iMac.
    My PRIMARY concern, is I need it to work with Adobe Flash Webchats. Help!

    Hello, macboyme
    Consider the following in any order you find relevant for your system:
    (0) You write that you are using a 4pin to 8pin adapter. However, I think you mean 6pin to 9pin adapter.
    External iSight is a Firewire device that uses a 6pin Firewire 400 connector. 
    Newer Macs have only 9pin Firewire 800 connectors, so it is common to use 6pin to 9pin adapters similar to the one I normally use:
      http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/FIR1369AD/
    The only 8 pin cables and adapters I could find were USB. They won't work on Firewire devices.
    4pin Firewire is a mini connection that I have only seen in cameras. If you really are using a 4 and/or 8 pin cable, I suggest you try a different Firewire adapter method.
    My suggestions below are based on using a 6pin to 9pin adapter like that mentioned above or cable like this one I have also successfully used:
      http://store.apple.com/us/product/TP320LL/A
    (1) Test in another User Account on your iMac. Be sure to also consider all the other suggestions for external iSight from:
      http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    You do not say which of your Macs has only FW800 ports that require a Firewire adapter. To remove as many variables as possible, test the same cables and Firewire 400-800 adapter on both Macs if it is possible to do so. If you only use the adapter on one Mac, it is possible that the adapter is the cause of your trouble. If one of your Macs has only FW400 and the other has only FW800, test with a different adapter or use a 6pin-9pin cable to test both your Firewire iSight. Also, test another Firewire 400 device to eliminate the possibility that your problem is caused by one of your connections.
    (2) For additional ideas on how to test external iSight, consider the additional suggestions here:
      http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage4.html
    Unless the software and connected peripherals are EXACTLY the same on both your iMac and your MacBook, be sure to consider possible hardware or software conflicts with something else installed in or connected to your iMac. A link to more info about conflicts is included in the "How to test..." page.
    (3) If you can rule out both possible conflicts and connection problems in the iMac, the problem must be either in your iMac's user account or in the system software used to operate your external iSight.
    You can rule out problems with the user account by testing in several different accounts.
    If the problem is EXACTLY the same in any user account you test on your iMac, your system software is suspect. Backup all your important files, repair permissions, and apply the 10.6.4 Combo Update:
      http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1048
    Follow the restart that completes the Combo Update with another permissions repair. Then test iSight again.
    (4) Once your external iSight works correctly with your iMac's QuickTimeX, iChat, etc., it will work as well with Flash video websites as it does when you are running it from your MacBook.

  • Help Connecting Older Sony HandyCam to MacBook Pro

    I have an older Sony HandyCam which I have not used in years.  Trying to connect to iMove 6.0.3 and can not get the camcorder to mount so I can import.  Using USB connection since my MacBook Pro does not have firewire.  Help?

    Hi
    What Sony HandyCam do You have ?
    Is it a miniDV tape Camera - if so it only can connect via FireWire.
    What MacBook Pro - Do You have ? - Never seen one without FireWire - but on later models there are only a FireWire 800 connector.
    MacBook Air and some MacBooks don't have any FW-connector - but MB Pro used to have it as far as I know.
    If it has a FW800 - connector - then You need a FW 4-pin to FW-800 Cable - the FW400-FW800 adapter is not my favorite solution.

  • Migration via wireless network

    The migration assistant on the iMac I'm trying to migrate from (B) recognises the MacBook I'm trying to migrate to (A) but when I input the passcode from A into B it spends ages "searching for other computers" and then eventually gives me the boxes for the passcode again. Eventually the MA on Mac A tells me that the network connection has failed.
    I'd like to resolve this but would I be better off using a firewire, although I will have to buy a 400/800 connector?

    Thanks very much for your response. I've accessed the document you noted and installed the 'Sharing Setup' software (although Spotlight seems unable to locate it).
    I tried Migration Assistant again on the wireless network, but it is still not working. On the source computer my destination Mac is recognised and I'm asked for the passcode. Having inputted the code I get the message "Preparing for information" and then it reverts to the passcode page again (still recognising the other computer). When I input the code again I get the message "Searching for other computers", which continues ad infinitum.
    I'm looking to get the 400/800 firewire connector I need tomorrow, but presumably I will still have the same problem with MA?

  • G5 Firewire-ports poor for audio interfaces??

    Hello. I have reason to believe that the FireWire-ports on the new G5:s are not really stable enough to handle an audio interface. Storage devices are okay (much less complex protocol).
    My G5 constantly loses contact with my Digi 002R interface, or chokes on CPU even on low level usage, and on the Pro Tools forum many users have experienced this. The G4:s had much more stable FW-ports!
    For some users it helps to use only one of the two FW400-ports, not both.
    Is this a known issue? Has Apple ever commented on this? Does the warranty cover this? (It should)
    Niljam, new to this forum

    I recently switched from a MOTU 828 running off the FW400 connector on the back of my G5 to a Yamaha mLan-based solution.
    When I switched to mLan, admittedly running potentially tons more channels in/out, the internal FW bus "fell over" (connector on the front and the 400 and 800 connectors are all on the same bus no matter it turns out).
    I popped a PCI firewire card and the audio stuff worked MUCH better, it was immediate. That's not to say that things work perfectly now... if the machine has been in sleep mode for a while, mLan's autoconnector hangs quite severely, whereby it's not even possible to force quit it... really ugly actually.
    at any rate... for 8 in/out, certainly on MOTU, the on-board FW will "do", but it's probably best to get another FW card, especially if you're going to put sample libraries etc on an external FW drive, then you'd want that to be separate from the audio streams...
    hope this helps!
