Can a 23 or 30-inch display be connected to a XBOX 360 or PS3?

Can a 23 or 30-inch display be connected to a XBOX 360 or PS3?
Thanks.

If your PowerBook has a dual-link DVI port, it will work with the 30-inch Cinema Display; this port can be found on a PowerBook with a clock speed of 1.67GHz. Neither the PowerBook nor the MacBook has upgradable graphics.

Can anyone tell me how to port forward and setup an XBOX 360 using my Time Capsule??

Xbox 360
When playing the game online, the minimum speed of your network should be 128kbps. The ideal network speed for playing the game online is 768kbps. If you are having a problems with lag check the following:
Network Troubleshooting:
Disable any firewall or security features on your router.
Set port forwarding on your router to the IP address of your Xbox 360. This game uses port 3074 (UDP/TCP). Additionally Xbox LIVE requires ports 80, 53 TCP and 88, 53 UDP.
Place your Xbox 360 into the DMZ of your router.
Disconnect your router and try the game. If it works regularly at this point something about your router may not be completely compatible with the specific needs of this game. Check with your router manufacturer and Microsoft's Xbox Live Connection Issues page for additional steps that may need to be done to resolve the issue you are having. You can also verify that you have an Xbox Live compatible router.
If you are having issues connecting while multiple Xbox 360 consoles are connected on the same network, try forwarding port 3074 (UDP/TCP) for one Xbox 360 and setting the other as DMZ. There is a chance that this may not resolve you issue, if it doesn’t then you may want to consider getting an additional public IP address by contacting your Internet Service Provider and assigning it to one of these two consoles.
NOTE: If setting port forwarding or DMZ helps your connection issue, you may want to assign your Xbox 360 a static IP address within your home network. This can help to ensure that the configurations you made do not need to be done again. You can visit PortForward's Static IP Guide for a detailed guide on how to do this.
NOTE: Many broadband internet modems are coming with routing capabilities built in. Please contact your internet service provider to determine if your internet modem has an integrated router. If it does, they should be able to assist you with the steps above for setting up your router.
Once you have verified that your network setup is not the cause of the issue, try the following:
Try connecting to a different server. Some servers may have other players connected to them that you do not have an optimal connection with. In most games this is accomplished by backing out to the main menu and then selecting multiplayer again. From there you can try connecting to another online game.
Run the Xbox Network Self Test to see how strong your NAT is currently set to. Once the test is completed you will be notified if there is an issue with your connection. If you select "More Info" you will be given information about your NAT type and some steps to resolve any issues with your connection.
Moderate and Strict NAT types may have issues connecting to online matches. You may get the error "Notice - The game session is no longer available." If you do then enabling UPnP, forwarding port 3074, or placing your Xbox in your router's DMZ may resolve this issue. Please consult your router documentation for instructions on how to do this.

Whoa....this just went way over my head.... I already have 6.1 installed for my Airport Utility.
Read again what I wrote.. 6.1 is the problem.. or part of it.
You need to install the earlier 5.6 version which I have given you explicit instructions to do.
I have done something now and can not connect the XBOX at all now....unless you can provide me step by step directions I may have to call Apple Support.
This will happen over and over.. just press reset and start again.. you need to learn how to do the setup and using 5.6 utility will help you.. as will using ethernet from the computer to the TC.. trying to fix things over wireless is like sitting on a tree branch you are sawing off. As soon as you update you will fall to the ground.
I am not that sure that Apple Support will have any idea.
Do a google search .. you will find most people struggle with this.. Microsoft made the xbox to use upnp with vista specs.. if you use a router without upnp, ie any apple router.. you will have issues.
Have a go at bypassing the problem.. I have no idea if this will work.. I do not use a TC as the main router because much of my network including xbox and ps3 is just a pain.. I use a modem router with upnp. And bridge the TC.. that is the setup I would recommend.
Try this.. once you have installed 5.6 utility.
Get the IP of the XBox and click enable default host.. and put the IP address in there.. this is called DMZ.. all unassigned packets are forwarded to this ip address.. it is like a port forwarding for all ports.
See if it helps.. If it does you will need to lock the xbox address so it doesn't change.. we can get to that.
Tell me what kind of broadband you have and what modem router first.. none of this will work if you have double NAT.

How Can i get my ipod Video 60gb to play on my XBOX 360???

How Can i get my ipod Video 60gb to play on my XBOX 360???

she only needs to do that if he needs to change the format. For example if she recorded the clips via her phone and it's not in a format iTunes will play. For example if I have a .wmv iTunes won't touch it until I convert it. She could also be talking about video that she recorded on a DVD camcorder that burns the video to a DVD not a memory card. ITunes doesn't convert everything.
She's transfered the clips to her ipad and the ipad won't play them. So she needs to get them to a m4v or mp4, and you use format converters for that. Not apps but something on the computer.

Can I run two 30 inch displays ???

My Quad (Late 2005) has a GeForce 6600 256mb video card.
Currently I am running one 30 inch. I have hooked up a second 20 without a problem.
Can I run two 30 displays on the same card?
Or do I need to add a second video card to the machine??

Of the cards originally available for the Quad, only the nVidia 4500FX could support two 30" displays.
Your best option is to get the newly released ATi X1900 G5 edition. It will support two 30" displays and is considerably faster than the 6600 you have in there now.
Note: This is not the same X1900XT that's on the Apple Store. That one is for the MacPro only and will not work in a G5 (even though they're both PCI-e). OWC has the G5 version for sale here: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/ATI%20Technologies/100435854/

Can i hook up my xbox 360 to mac pro 27

i wnat to know how or if i can hook up my xbox 360 to my mac pro 27 as a screen to play games

I suppose you can. You're talking about the desktop Mac Pro, right?
just takin' a stab at it here, but I think elgato has a game capture box which might be helpful. It does mention xbox 360 and ps3. if it's for a MacBook Pro, I can't say for sure. Maybe blackmagic??

Please make a note of WEP Key 1 as this is the Security Key for the Wireless Network...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Click on "Applications and Gaming" tab and then click on "Port Range Forwarding" subtab...
1) On the first line in Application box type in ABC, in the start box type in 53 and End box type in 3074, leave the protocol as both and under ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and check the enable box, click Save Settings once done...
2) Once you return to the set up page click on the Security tab and uncheck Block Anonymous Internet Requests and click on Save Settings...
3) Click on set-up and change the MTU Size to 1452 and click Save Settings...

IP Address: 192.168.X.[last part of ip in your device] e.g. if static ip given to the device was 192.168.X.10 get the last part and put that to the empty box.

Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it first?

Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it up fully before you can use it. I do not want to damage the laptop by misusing the battery.

Attach the charger and start charging the battery to 100%. The good news is that after you have connected the charger, you may start using the MBP as well.
Ciao.

Video card to run 30 inch display for G5 2.5 GHz quad core

I want to purchase the 30 inch HD display for my G5 Quad core 2.5 GHZ machine. Apple states that it needs the nVidia GeForce 6800 card to run. I have the GeForce 6600. Will the 30 inch display run at a lower resolution with this card? If not, could someone recommend a PCI-E card that will? I did find a 6800 GeForce Ultra at Macsales.com but they state it will not run on the quad G5.
Thank you for your time and consideration

Your existing card has two DVI ports. One is single-link and can only run up to a 23". The other is dual-link, and can run a 30" at full resolution.

HT1338 Just got 27 inch display for my Mac Book Air how do I use extended desktop

How do I use the extended display to view a architectual print on the 27 inch display and have numbers running on mac book air

First, don't use Full screen mode or Mirror. Just drag the architectual print off the right side of the MBair monitor and it will appear on the external.
You can make adjustments in System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement tab

"Macbook Pro 17-inch" OR "15-inch 2.0Ghz + 23-inch display" ?

I'm ready to upgrade my iMac G4 and would like to change to a Macbook Pro. The decision i'm working on making is whether to invest in the 17-inch MBP or go for the 15-inch + 23-inch display. Both options cost about the same.
The combination of laptop and display creates the flexibility of working on a large desktop display at home and bringing the laptop with me when I travel.
The 17-inch brings the higher performance. Perhaps the 17-inch display is plenty of screen space for working at home (I've been working with a 17-inch screen on my G4 iMac for several years)
I would describe my use of the system as "home use" -> internet, email, iTunes, photo library/editing/I'm thinking about upgrading from iPhoto to Photoshop, video storage/I've done very little video editing but may start with Final Cut Express,
I'd very much appreciate any comments and advice from anyone who can make suggestions about which of these systems would be best for my needs.
Some additional questions about the MBP + Cinema Display combination:
Is it a good idea to run the MacBook Pro 15-inch connected to a 23-inch Apple display? I realize the Apple displays are targeted at Mac Pro users. Would i get the full benefit of the display performance if I'm driving it with a Macbook Pro? Is it convenient to "dock" and "un-dock" the MBP from the display? Besides the Bookendz product is there any expectation that Apple will produce a docking station to connect the MBPs to the displays?

If you plan on using it mainly at home, I would get the 15" and external display. That's what I done. It's been working out great. You don't need a docking station either. Everything is easy to attach and unattach,

Westmere Radeon 5770 Apple Acrylic ACD 23 inch Display Compatibility

Will the ACD to DVI acrylic 23 inch display work with the Mac Pro Westmere processor model and the ATI Radeon 5770? Never got my acrylic model display to work with anything but a Radeon X1900 on my Mac Pro 1.1. Thinking about upgrading to a new Mac Pro. If I can't get my acrylic ADC model to work, I may have to go in a different direction from Mac.

The odd thing is that my acrylic worked with the 4870 with with OS 10.5 without updates. No openGL and/or core image support; however, but it booted into the OS. As soon as I updated to to OS 10.5.8, I could no longer boot into the OS. When OS 10.5 was introduced, there were no Radeon 4870's on the market. Thank you for the information, but I'm still wondering; however, if I can use my acrylic with the new Mac Pro 2010 Westmere's and the Radeon 5770 or if I'm going to run into software conflicts. I would really like to get a new Mac Pro. I really like my Acrylic Cinema Display. Beautiful color rendition and a reliable power supply, the Dr. Bott DVIator. It's not that old and it is Macintosh hardware.

Dual 30-inch displays

I have a MacPro with an ATI Radeon 4870 graphics card with a DVI port and a mini Display port. I have an Apple 30-inch display now and have acces to another 30-inch Apple display. Can I use the current card to run both displays at once? I got a mini display port to Dual-link DVI adapter and the mini port did not work for either display, but both displays work on the DVI port. Apple is sending me a new adapter, but my question is, can I display one 30-inch monitor thru the DVI AND one monitor thru the mini port together? Apple does not know. The ATI site is not helpful. If not, what card should I use. Many thanks.

Yes, mDP can drive a 30-inch. What you already tried should have worked and I'm not sure why it didn't. At least you have another adapter coming, but the problem may lie elsewhere besides a defective adapter.
Write back with further details if the second adapter also fails to work.

Is it possible to attach two 27 inch displays the new generation 17 inch MacPro?

Is it possible to attach two 24 inch displays to the new generation 17 inch Macbook Pro?

You can attach one monitor to the Thunderbolt port and the other to a USB port. At present the Thunderbolt port in and of itself can't support two monitors, and the one third-party box I know of that enables connecting two monitors to a mini-Displayport hasn't yet been updated for Thunderbolt compatibility. Here's the kind of adapter you'd need for the USB connection:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/VIDU2DVIA/
Note that the USB connection would be limited to a maximum of 2048 x 1152 resolution with that adapter (or less with many other USB adapters). That's enough for Apple's 24" LED display, if that's the one you were thinking of. USB's slowness also imposes performance limitations on USB-connected displays, so the one connected via Thunderbolt is the one you'd want to view any fast-action video or games on.
Oops, I've just noticed that you asked in your subject line about 27" displays and in the body of your query about 24" displays. The short answer with respect to 27" displays is no, you could only run one at its native resolution. You could add a 24" display via USB.

Can a 23 or 30-inch display be connected to a XBOX 360 or PS3?
