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):

Trouble with multi-media docking station

I have used my multi-media docking station every night since I got the phone in September. Last night I put my phone in and went to sleep only to wake up at 5 and realize that its not charging.
I took the phone off and put it back on and it still won't charge. After several tries I got up and got my usb charger and my phone charges fine on it.
Any ideas??
Thanks

Did you try taking the plug out of the back of the docking station and then reinserting it. Maybe it was knocked loose.

USB media docking station won't wake up pc

using the USB media docking station with Toshiba Satellite laptop. If it goes into sleep mode for more than an hour, I need to open the laptop lid in order to wake up the PC. With my old HP laptop, I could simply move my external mouse or press any key on my external keyboard to wake it up

it could be that the speakers that is having the issue. Does your coworker's laptop work with the speakers when plugged directly into the laptop?
I have encountered this problem before, when the cable was actually leaking current back through the cable that connects to the headphone port (3.5 mm jack).

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?

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

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 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.

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.

Docking Station compatability zen v p

Hello everyone
I am in search of a docking station for my Zen V Plus 4GB and have seen some I really like although unfortunately they only seam to be compatible with Ipods, and to add to that there only seams to be one compatible with my player. (See link below).
http://uk.europe.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=23&subcategory=27&product=585
Are there any conversion accessories available on the market, which will enable the Zen V Plus to be compatible with a docking station other than this one?
Thanks

I have the same problem, please can anyone help?I have bought z500 but can not use my zenv plus in it, and I baught it because it sais I can use this in this docking station. It's not very nice have the player plugged in back.....

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.

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.

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)
