    Hey ottaviob,

    If I understand correctly, you want to transfer contacts and other things to your new Mac.
    I recommend you to read this article; It has advice to transfer your contacts, music, photos, documents and more on your Android device. Once the content is on the Mac later at some point if you wish, this article is also not to transfer this content in an iOS device too.

    On a Mac, install Android File Transfer, open it,

  • How to connect a microphone to capacitor for Mac Book Pro?

    Hi all

    After recently to buy a NW-700 Neewer and set up, I plugged it on my which seems to me to be a model 2012 or 2013 the Mac Book Pro, only to see that he has been received as headphones and tab out of my sound preferences. I don't think that there is something wrong with the microphone as I had also bought and hooked to a phantom power source. After you pass the cables through the power source, I plugged my card TRS in a TRS FosPower additional to the PLUG adapter, knowing that Mac does not accept audio TRS jacks. And then after all that, I plugged this card into my computer which was accepted as a helmet instead of a microphone.

    I have a theory, that the FosPower adapter converts only the input signals and the computer then thought of as a helmet. What do you think?

    Here are some pictures to help.

    Hi garretthelp,

    I understand that you are having trouble to get your microphone Neewer NW-700 to be recognized as a device on your MacBook Pro.  If the TRS FosPower to adapter PLUG does not work for you, have you tried using an audio interface with standard XLR connections for your audio configuration?    Which application you use on your Mac?  No matter what settings are you using in the Mac system preferences should also be done in the settings of the audio application as well.  I will include information for GarageBand below for your reference.

    I found the Web site of the manufacturer of your product and enter the SKU for the microphone Support page, but they do not have a manual available at the moment.  So, if using an interface standard audio does not resolve the problem, you will need to contact Neewer for more information.

    Plug in a microphone

    You can connect a microphone to your computer to record your voice, an acoustic instrument or any other sound on an audio track in GarageBand. You can connect a microphone to the port of audio input of your computer, a USB port, or, for better audio, an audio interface connected to a FireWire or USB port on your computer. You can also use your computer's built-in microphone to record sound.

    After you connect a microphone, you choose the input source for the range that you want to save in, and then turn eventually followed. Monitoring allows you to hear you play so you can hear the part you want to record as well as the rest of the project.

    Connect a microphone to your computer

    Do one of the following:

    • If you use your computer's built-in microphone, select the Microphone as the source of entry into GarageBand > Preferences > Audio > devices.

    • Plug the microphone on your computer audio input port (if she has a), then choose integrated input as input source of the track.

  • Connect a USB microphone to a USB port on your computer. Choose the USB microphone as input source of the track.

  • Connect an audio interface to a USB or FireWire port, then a microphone for the audio interface for recording.

  • Connect a console audio mixer or console in an audio interface connected to your computer.

  • Set the input for a microphone source

    1. Select the audio track.

    2. Click the Smart Controls to open the smart controls, and then click the Inspector button of .

    3. In the recording settings section, choose one of the following on the shortcut menu of the entry:

      • If you use your computer's built-in microphone, choose the built-in Microphone.

      • If you use a microphone connected to your computer's audio input port, choose built-in input.

        If the integrated entry does not appear in the menu, choose GarageBand > Preferences, click Audio / MIDI, then choose enter integrated in the context menu of the Audio input.

      • If you use a microphone connected to a USB port, select the microphone.

      • If you use a microphone connected to an audio interface, choose the number of the channel for the microphone.

        If channels audio interface do not appear in the menu, choose GarageBand > Preferences, click Audio / MIDI, then choose the audio interface in the context menu of the Audio input.

      Make sure the format matches the microphone or instrument. Choose a mono for monophonic instruments (with a single channel), then a stereo input to stereo devices (with a pair of channels).

    4. Drag the recording level slider to change the level of input to the sound source volume.

      If the recording level slider is dimmed, you cannot change the volume of entry in GarageBand. In this case, use the volume control on the unit.

    Take care

    I have a complaint on my Mac Book Pro. I bought my computer in January 2016 and it has two problems: the first is the display of the retina that has many traces of the keyboard and as many times it freezes. I have looked for help on the local Apple Store and support too, but it did not help. I would like you help me solve this problem.

    Thank you.

    Your machine is still under warranty, so you should take it to your local Apple store for repairs. Function late in January, you bought it, you still have phone without support. If you can't find any help on the Apple Store, then I don't know what you expect to find here. We have no way to check for problems you have described or any additional hardware, etc.
