Best way to add second monitor with HDMI input

I have a 24-inch Mid 2007 iMac.  Processor  2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo  Memory  4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM  Graphics  ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB.  I need to add a second monitor, and while I'm at it, this new monitor will be an HDTV Monitor with an HDMI input.  My iMac has the original USB connections.  So I'm thinking an ethernet to HDMI adapter should do the trick.
Is this right?  If so, what supplier makes a good ethernet to HDMI adapter?

Hi
I've always thought powered DVI (ADC) was introduced on the Gigabit Ethernet G4s, like your dual 500. It should be easy to check, as the graphics card has an extra power 'stub' which fits into an extra slot on the logic board, between the main AGP slot and the back of the computer. If all the gold connectors on the Radeon 9000 are seated, I think you must have powered DVI/ADC. If some are 'floating' above the logic board, you haven't.

  • Can I use the HDMI out on a HP ALL IN ONE TOUCHSCREEN Desktop to connect a second monitor with HDMI

    Can I use the HDMI out on a HP ALL IN ONE TOUCHSCREEN Desktop to connect a second monitor with HDMI  in without any additional  software or graphics adaptor.  I have a 520-1070
    HP - 23" Touch-Screen TouchSmart All-In-One Computer - 8GB Memory - 2TB Hard Drive ? I used a HDMI to HDMI cable and the monitor was not  recognized.

    Here are the specs for your HP TouchSmart 520-1070 Desktop Computer. As previously stated your computer Doesn't have a HDMI output, instead it has a HDMI input. This is designed to let you connect a game console, a DVD/Bluray player, etc. to use as a monitor.
    If you wish to conect a second monitor to your computer, you will need to use a USB-to-video adapter such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39 or EVGA UV Plus+ UV19. Using an adapter like these with the touch feature of your computer may cause issues with pointer control and you may need to disable the touch feature to use "extended desktop".

  • What is the best way to run dual monitors with a 2011 MBP?

    I have a 2011 MBP and i want to run dual 1920x1080 monitors. what is the best way to accomplish this? i also have a PC attached to the monitors with the DVI connection (but would be willing to change this to the analog, if necessary). so i have teh analog and HDMI connections available on the backs of the monitors.
    what i would like to do is hook the MBP through the HDMI if possible and then i would just be able to change inputs on the monitors depending in which computer i want to use (PC or MBP).
    any ideas would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

    Ok, you either own a MacBook Pro with an Intel Processor, or a PowerBook with a PowerPC Processor.
    If your stated speed is correct, then you own a PowerBook, which will not run Windows natively. development & sales for Virtual PC has ceased. The only emulator still around, I think, is iEmulator & is terribly slow on G4s.
    Boot Camp does not work on PowerPC Macs.

  • What is the best way to add multiple images with links into an email signature?

    I created an email signature with five linked images by:
    * creating new message
    • attached the image
    • adding link to the image
    • copied new email signature
    • under Preferences/Signature added the new signature
    It all works, but some of the emails bounced back. When we removed the images, the email went through.
    I  tried putting all the images into Photoshop and making it all one image, used the slice tool to create a link for each image and brought that single image into the signature, but that didn't work as separate links.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi Bob.
    So what I should have done on my PC for all my files is gone to the File menu and used the Package command which would have converted it into a file with the images in it so they wouldn't need to be relinked.
    From now on I will only be working on Mac (I gave away my PC) but I'm sure I could use a friend's pc (or at a later point install Windows on my Mac). But to use the Package command on PC I need to actually have the images in the correct folder on the PC right?

  • Connecting to LCD Monitor with HDMI input

    The Macbook Pro Comes with a DVI Cable(Haven't got it with me).Can anybody tell me if I need to get a DVI to HDMI cable to use a 32 Inch LCD Monitor? Thank You
    Macbook Pro 2.16Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   MacBook Pro

    Hi J.Charles,
    You've actually posted in the forum for the Mac Pro Desktop machine, but that's ok
    The MacBook Pro doesn't come with a cable, you'll need to buy one. The MacBook Pro has a DVI port. DVI is a subset of HDMI, so you can either get a DVI to DVI cable and a DVI to HDMI adaptor, or a DVI to HDMI adaptor.
    With regards to the question of if your LCD TV requires HDMI, since you haven't mentioned the brand/model, only the manual can tell you

  • How do I Add second monitor to ALL in One ENVY23 that has a HDMI port

    How do I Add second monitor to my ALL in One ENVY23 that has a HDMI port the computer has Win 8  Model #: 23se-d494
    Product #: F3D93AA#ABA
    Serial #: [edited Serial Number by Moderator]
    Software Build #: 14AM1HRA601#SABA#DABA
    Service ID #: 20140521
    PCBRAND #: HP

    Here are the specs for your HP ENVY TouchSmart 23se-d494 All-in-One Desktop Computer. Based the specs, the HDMI port on the side of your computer is an INPUT only. This model doesn't have a video output of any kind.
    1 - Controls           2 - HDMI In port (model dependent)
    You will need to purchase and use a USB-to-video adapter such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39 (or any of the many other adapters on the market) to connect an external display to your computer. I personally use and recommend the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • I am considering a Apple iMac but would be interested in adding a second monitor. Does it have to be an Apple monitor or can i add any monitor with a thunderbolt cable and DVI or vGA adapter?

    I am considering a Apple iMac but would be interested in adding a second monitor. Does it have to be an Apple monitor or can i add any monitor with a thunderbolt cable and DVI or vGA adapter?

    I found that the Thunderbolt input accepts the mini-DVI (in my case converter to VGA for a tutorial use monitor)
    BUT, you have to really oush it in 'til it clicks.  I thought it too loose until I tried it.  works just fine!!

  • Idea Center B520 - how to add second monitor?

    I want to add a second monitor to my B520, but the only monitors I have connect with a DVI cable.  I don't see a DVI plug anywhere on the B520.  Is there a way?  If not, if I buy a monitor with HDMI connections, can I connect it to my B520 using HDMI?  My B520 is 3D and touch screen.  Thanks in advance.  New to the all-in-one world.

    I have my B520 connected to my 42" Monitor via a HDMI cable
    Go to Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Display > Screen Resolution, and then choose 'Detect'.  (It is my understanding, you need to make the B520 your 'main display', or you can not use Touch on the B520)
    You will also need to set your Monitor Source to 'HDMI'  (My old PC is still connected to my Monitor via Source 'DVI'.  It allows me to use my old PC, and new B520, on the same Monitor; by just changing the Source)
    As for connecting the B520 to an external Monitor that does not have HDMI Input ... there are cables, and adaptors, that you buy to convert HDMI to DVI (or whatever).  Once you have the converter, then choose the applicable Source on you Monitor.

  • Best way to add a new section in the middle of a tune?

    hi,
    what's best way to add a new section in the middle of a tune? I think I came up with an interesting transition to a tune... what's the best way to try it out?
    please be specific. if it's just select all and cut and move - I already know that one. somehow, I bet there's a better way.
    thanks in advance...

    You should be able to enter the "in" and out" points in the transport bar. And then under the Region menu, choose "Cut/Insert time."
    So if, for instance, you go up to bar 32, and want to add 8 bars, enter 32 1 1 1 in the top transport place, and 40 1 1 1 in the second. Then select "Cut/Insert Time", and an 8 bar whole will be added to your song.
    Be aware that if there are overlapping MIDI notes found at that cut point, Logic will warn you about it, and give you some options. In this case, I think "Keep" would be what you'd want, but every situation is different...
    Hope that helps....

  • Best way for add thousans items to listbox without freezing ui in wpf

    Hello guys.
    What is the best way for add thousands items (or even more) to Listbox without freezing UI.
    I search many post in the web but I don't understand how this posts writer wrote that code.
    I realized that ObservableCollection can contain 1000 items or even more and show that items to listbox just for few second without freezing UI but I don't Know how can I use that!
    Can you guys give me an example.
    thanks.

    If you bind an observablecollection you can add items to that from a background thread.  Then bind that to the itemssource.  I usually new up an observablecollection, add the items then set the bound property to  that.
    But I avoid thousands of items. 
    You should provide some sort of filter mechanism the user chooses a category or whatever and then fill with a maximum of 300 items.
    Users simply can't work with thousands of items.
    It is usually reading the data out  a database which takes the time rather than creating objects to bind.
    Hence this:
    protected async override void GetData()
    ThrobberVisible = Visibility.Visible;
    ObservableCollection<CustomerVM> _customers = new ObservableCollection<CustomerVM>();
    var customers = await (from c in db.Customers
    orderby c.CustomerName
    select c).ToListAsync();
    foreach (Customer cust in customers)
    _customers.Add(new CustomerVM { IsNew = false, TheEntity = cust });
    Customers = _customers;
    RaisePropertyChanged("Customers");
    ThrobberVisible = Visibility.Collapsed;
    That's making an asynchronous entity framework call.
    A list of customers is obtained.
    These are then wrapped in a customer viewmodel each.
    Finally the observablecollection Customers is set to this new collection and propertychanged raised to notify the view.
    The itemssource of a datagrid is bound to Customers.
    Hope that helps.

  • What is the best way to add "meta tags" in edge?

    Trying to add meta tags for search engines, what are the best ways to do this?

    With the latest version of Edge (3.0) is still the best practice to edit index.html or is there a better one?
    Y try for example...
    var meta1 = '<meta name="robots" content="index, follow" />';
    $(meta1).appendTo("head");
    ...in creationComplete or in document.compositionReady but I can't see these lines in index.html file, are stored in index_edgeActions.js file.
    But maybe that works to attach the meta tags with append to head because it does work fine (and neither are saved in the index.html):
    var favicon = "<link rel='shortcut icon' href='images/volicon.png' type='image/png'/>" ;
    $(favicon).appendTo("head");
    I don't know if Google detect meta tags stored in index_edgeAtions.js or is more recommended to modify index.html manually with notepad.
    Maybe the best practice are save and publish Edge project with a name different than index (for example project.an and project.html) and to create an index.html manually with meta tags, code of Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, etc., and with HTML meta http-equiv Attribute for to redirect immediately to project.html generate with Edge (remember disallow project.html in robots.txt). In this way is not necessary to modify the index.html file each time that we publish.
    How do you see?

  • What is the best way to add hard disk space to macbook pro?

    I'm running out of disk space on my macbook pro. What is the best way to add disk space?

    another way of doing it is to replace your hard drive with a larger one.
    if you're technically capable, it takes 10 minutes for the swap and an hour minimum to clone your hard drive or do a data transfer.  all depends on how much data there is to trandfer or to clone.
    good luck.

  • Best way to build a website with hundreds of pages

    What is the best way to build a website with hundreds of pages that include businesses in every city of the U.S. I will be building it in Dreamweaver CS4 and pulling the data from an MS Excel spreadsheet.
    I started building it by building the first page and then saving a new page with new data and so on.
    There must be a way to pull from the Excel doc without copying and pasting each page of data, and there must be a way to build this site smaller and easier to make changes when needed.
    Thanks

    You already have other people addressing the DB issues - so I will bring up the other... You are just saving a copy as a new page and then copy and pasting the changed content into  it?
    What you want to do is take the first page, once you have your design done - and save it as a template (file - save as - Dreamweaver Template).
    Then you want to select the areas (most likely the divs you have content in) that will have content changed, and select the div or p or whatever element... and go to Insert - Template Objects - Editible Region.
    Make sure you don't made editable the areas that are the primary design - such as a logo element, a header image, the navigation etc.  If you want to change those - you would do so by making the change on the template, and then it will automatically update all pages made based on that template.
    Once you are done setting up the templates - go to your new page and choose Modify - Templates - Apply Template To Page
    Select the template you just created (note it will be placed inside of a new folder titled "templates" automatically by Dreamweaver).
    Now, any of the areas you selected to add different content into will be selectable, and you can copy/paste or however you are doing so.
    Good luck

  • Best way to add new post link

    What would be the best way to add a "new post" link on the main homepage that links to the appropriate blog page. Ideally, I'd like to put a small photo too.
    Is the only way to manually add it every time I update, or is there a better way?
    Thanks, Jill

    You can do it any number of ways. Link a shape, link text, or link a photo to the appropriate blog page, using the Inspector from the tool bar at the bottom of the iWeb window.
    You are correct that the only way is to manually update each time. I don't know of any method to get the blog entries to auto update an indicator on the Home page in iWeb.
    I have a site for a current project I'm on that has a "Shot of the Day" link on the Home page. As the site has gotten large, I have a duplicate of the Domain file for this site that contains nothing but this Home page. I update the page and then simply swap out the files on the server with the updated ones. Makes opening, editing, and saving the changes faster and easier than publishing the entire site each time. Here's an example of how I placed the link on the Home page...
