Dear Anyone.
OK, I SHOULD know this... but I don't. I've got an MP3 stick, basically it's a memory stick set up to play MP3s. Nothing fancy. Cost £6 online and still runs on disposable batteries-which is the problem. Because of the width of the battery-holder part of it, it doesn't plug snugly into my laptop's USB socket so I can't put any MP3s on it.
So I got told about extension cables. And found a lovely website HERE http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/produ...XTfRtm0RvXcFjVfRIiYFpyNXKk5tB9sPNgBoCNqrw_wcB
with loads of them at £1.90-ish - moderators, I am not affiliated with the above website, this is not spam, it is a genuine question. The question IS - I flat dunno which one to order. All the ends LOOK right, some look a LEETLE different and I don't want to order the wrong one.
Can someone please tell me WHICH cable I need to get? To reiterate - it's just an ordinary memory stick with a socket for headphones, basically. I need to plug its end into the cable and the cable into my laptop's USB socket, which I THINK is USB2.0 because it's an XP SP3 laptop that's got dinosaurs and mould growing out of it (well, virtually!)
Please, can someone tell me in detail what I need to order from the above site or any other site, if a mod. takes the link out? I'm just not good at this stuff and have no idea.
Yours hopefully
Chris.
