Music input from mini disks on Hi Fi

I have just upgraded from an iMac laptop to a MacBook pro, hoping I would be able to download music from my Hi Fi minidisk player to my laptop.

With my imac I used an imic but found this was not very satisfactory.

I was under the impression it would be a simple matter of plugging straight into the MacBook from the Hi Fi phono out and away I would go.

Not so, and the apple help people tell me the the only direct input to the computer is from a microphone and have gone so far as to suggest I get a microphone and hold it close to the Hi Fi speakers.

I will be grateful for any advice on this. I should mention that after 5 years of using my computer I, as an 82 year old, am still very much a beginner.

My MacBook is an OSX 10.4.11.

Well when you used the iMic did you go into System Preferences->Sound and select the Input tab. There you can adjust the input levels.
