Hello Sarai ,

There are many different ways to do this on the mac.  I'll outline for you how 
I do it.  First I have a regular tape deck on a stereo so I purchased the 
Griffin iMike.  this usb device lets you plug in the output from your stereo or 
from a mike directly into your computer.  So once you plug a cable with the 
input into the Mike you will select the setting on the Mike for powered or 
unpowered.  for a stereo it is unpowered.  I use a cable with two RCA plugs 
attached to the tape output and on the other end a standard 35 millimeter jack 
like the one on headphones for the iPhone.

Next I use Amadeus pro.  With that program you can input the tape then edit 
tracks and much more.  I then save in the format of my choice  and my tapes are 
now digital. 

I do the same thing for vinyl records.

There is a slightly outdated podcast on blindcooltech.com I think I called it 
Amadeus Pro Vinyl to CD.  It covers a lot of the Amadeus Pro basics. 

If you have a USB tape player then you will not need the Griffin iMike. 

Hope this helps.
