    For those who may have asked months prior, these "USB-C" adapters do not work with your USB-C dock stations, unfortunately. I feel like I wasted my money a bit because I thought these would properly work well with my non-USB-C laptop and work efficiently as any other USB port on my laptop. Sorry to inform those that may have wished the same thing. :(

      I wish I knew about this before purchasing. I've also purchased a hub with lots of ports ( 4 USB slots, 3.5mm jack, and more), however, with USB-C connector to the computer, so I ordered an adapter (USB-C to USB 3 for the computer's end), unfortunately, same with yours, my laptop only has HDMI and USB slots. I'm still waiting for the orders to arrive as of this moment.

      So do I get this right? I wanted to buy a drawing tablet which has a display and comes with an usb-c cable to power the tablet and shows the notebook screen (do you see what you draw). Even if I buy the adapter and plug it at the usb 3.0 port of my notebook, it would only give power but not the picture since the usb 3.0 inside the notebook is not made to transfer both? So instead I have to use an 3 in 1 cable with hdmi for the picture, usb to connect the devices and a power cable?

    • @Mr._Slave
      @Mr._Slave 2 года назад +2

      @@acrack_ontitan I don't think that would work as the notebook screen is not solely designed to display images unlike monitors. Also, in my humble opinion, notebook screen sizes are not that a big of a difference compared to a tablet (except for an ipad mini, I guess). And so, I think, there's no point of displaying it on a notebook screen, unless it has, at least, 19 inch display. My adapter (Male USB 3.0 to Female USB-C) partly worked plugging to a USB-C Dock (9-in-1: 3 USB 3.0, Ethernet, HDMI, 3.5mm, PD, SD Cards), but HDMI didn't work, I guess it needs the stock USB-C directly plugged in to a computer or laptop, unfortunately, my laptop doesn't have a USB-C port that's why I need the adapter.

    I ended up buying a USB-C cable by accident from Apple from their website that works nicely with my Mac because it has that kind of port in the back so I could have a dedicated Iphone or keyboard charger, but if I ever need to replace my USB-A cord in my vehicle I will need to get that USB-C to USB-A adapter. Now I know which one to get! Thanks!

    SO... if I have an Early 2015 MacBook Air with out the USB C connection. Do they make USB to USB C cables or an adapter so that I can hook up a dock with multiple AV connections? I have the older model and I would really like to find a hyper drive or some sort of option to have those multiple connections.

      @frogman6641 2 года назад

      Just been doing more research and looks like USB 2.0 is limited to 720p/30fps, so any webcams which say they are 1080p/60fps are being compressed by a chip in the webcam if they go into a USB 2.0 host computer. 1080p/30 is just not possible for a USB 2.0 webcam. This might explain why USB-C webcams seem to work better - 10 to 20 x more bandwidth over USB-C.

    Note that these adapters are EXPLICITLY FORBIDDEN by the USB specification. When connected in certain configurations (such as making an A-to-A cable) they can fry your equipment.
    The correct way to do this conversion is by getting the correct C-to-A or C-to-whatever cable, or connecting through a legitimate hub.
    "USB Type-C receptacle to USB legacy adapters are explicitly not defined or allowed. Such adapters would allow many invalid and potentially unsafe cable connections to be constructed by users."
