Can I use the mini displayport to vga adaptor with the xbox vga cable to connect my xbox 360 to my macbook pro?

I'm trying to find a way to connect my xbox 360 to my mackbook pro. I've searched the internet and found that I can use a eagle eye device but, its to expensive. So after looking at the xbox website, I found a vga adaptor for my xbox and an vga to mini displayport and I was wondering if this would work.

The minidisplay port is output only. It's not going to show anything from your xbox.

  • I bought the mini displayport to hdmi adapter with the cable

    (the ethernet high speed one that connects to the mini displayport) to connect to my sony bravia...and all I see is the Apple purple sky....why won't it work?

    What are you expecting to see? The same images you see on the notebook screen or something different?
    Sounds like you have the external screen set to act as a secondary screen (extend the desktop), but want it to mirror the main screen. You can control that in System Preferences > Displays.

    Can I use an Adobe Professional license from 2008 with the current version of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

    With "license" you mean serial number?  If that serial number was for a different Acrobat version (e.g. 9), you cannot use it for the current version XI.
    You can however use it to purchase an upgrade from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html

  • Can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 Wireless Printer with the AirPort Extreme Base. The printer is NOT connected at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme, and is placed in another room. It worked just fine with my previous router (Linksys WRT54G). Help me!

    Hey Guys!
    I just got my AirPort Extreme Base, but I can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 wireless printer with it.
    The printer is not connected to the AirPort Extreme's USB port. It is placed in another room, and I'd like to use it (the printer) wirelessly (not connected to the USB port os the AirPort Extreme), as I used to. There is no place for the printer close the AirPort Extreme. It worked just fine with my previous wireless router (Linksys WRT54G). I'm very disappointed with the AirPort Extreme Base Station because of that!...
    Can you help me? Please?!
    Thanks Folks!

    This must be a tough one, no suggestions at all.

  • Can I use Ipod Mini to my TV to see the pictures

    I stored some Pictures in my IPod Mini[4GB] and i want to see those photos in MY TV inorder to show to my friends..
    actually I purchased for that one purpose only
    so can any one tell me how can i see the pictures in TV ..
    and what should i need and what should i do?

    Yes, you can STORE pictures and/or video files on your mini. That's all you can do with them though - store them. This is so you can move them from your computer to another computer, but while they're on your iPod, there's really nothing you can do with them.
    The firmware in the mini simply does not have any capabilities to process the files to output to a tv.
    The iPods with color displays are able to display photos (not video) on a tv, but not the mini or any iPod without a color display.

  • How can I bandle Mac-mini Ipad and Iphone all with the same usser name and password

    I alway's have problem with my ID AND PASSWORD  also I want to bandle my mac-mini Ipad and Iphone with the same password and usser name how do I do tyhis?

    Hola amigo
    If you wish to use the same Apple ID for all your Apple devices then you need to set them up that way from the start. If you did not use the same Apple ID for them all then you would need to erase the iOS devices by returning them to the factory settings and starting over as if they were new.
    However, content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to download or update your content bought with one Apple ID with a different Apple ID. So you would need to decide if your are abandoning extra Apple IDs that you may have created and the content that you acquired with that Apple ID.

  • Can I use my Ipod photo 4th gen charger with the 120gb classic?

    My new 120gb classic will arrive shortly, I notice Apple don't include chargers anymore. Will the mains charger I got with my old 60gb ipod photo also work with the new classic or do I have to buy a new one? I notice the charger on sale via the apple website looks a bit different to my old one.

    If you old charger is a USB (+5V output) it will work. If it is a Firewire charger (+12V) then I think it will still work, but Apple has removed Firewire charging from most of the new iPod lines including the iPhone and 4th Generation Nano. However I think that the 120GB Classic may be the last iPod to still charge off Firewire chargers.
    It won't hurt anything to try it. If it doesn't work, you will get a screen display that states that the accessory is not supported or something to that effect.
    Good luck,
    Patrick

  • Cannot use mac mini dvi to composite adaptor with TV

    I am having a problem and I am wondering if the adaptor is broken or something.
    When I try to hook the mac mini (g4) up to my tv via RCA cable through the adaptor the screen just flickers on the tv, if I adjust the resolution sometimes it flickers less but there is multiples on the screen and it is all black and white and extermely grainy.
    I can't see or really make anything out no matter what resolution I try. What is the problem here? Can anyone help?

    Hi, I am a newcomer to this discussion but I have the exact same problem so I'd like to see it resolved if possible. Like the original questioner, I am trying to use an old TV (Panasonic circa 1990) with only composite jacks (plus coax of course) as the monitor for a new mac mini. When I bought the mac mini a couple weeks ago, the guy at the store said they didn't stock a DVI to RCA adaptor, but he located one online sold by a company called Sewell, so I ordered it. But it doesn't work, the screen just shows black snow. Even so, it seems something is coming over the line. My only guess is that even though this is the one the Apple guy recommended, it might be the wrong one: the TV end has 3 connectors (red, blue and green) while my TV only has two jacks (yellow and white).
    One other thing: how do you adjust the resolution on the mac mini if you can't see the screen?
    Any thoughts?

  • Can I use Migration Assistant as a tool to move my iphoto library back and forth from my imac to my MacBook Pro?

    I purchased a macbook pro so I can work on my iphoto projects when out of the house. Instead of buying an external and having my iphoto library on that, would I be able to use Migration Assistant to update the iphoto library from macbook pro to imac and imac to macbook pro -- depending on which machine i am using at the time?

    Do this:
    Drive Partition and Format
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

  • Does Thunderbolt work with the Mini Displayport to DVI adapter?

    I just ordered a new 13" MacBook Pro with Retina Display to replace my Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pro.  I've been using the Mini Displayport to DVI adapter to extend my screen to an older 20" Cinema Display.  From what I can find online, and I'm here asking for confirmation, I should still be able to use the Mini Displayport to DVI adapter with the new MacBook Pro's Thunderbolt port.  Correct?

  • Can someone recommend a Mini Displayport Female to HDMI cord/adapter?

    I would like to get an Apple 27" to use with my PC, which has both HDMI and DVI inputs. Thanks!

    Please clearify which Apple 27" display you want to connect.  Is the the 2010 model which uses a mini-displayport.  Or is it the current thunderbolt model.
    If it's the TB model you're out of luck.  You cannot connect a TB device to anything other that TB.
    Confusing Mini DisplayPort with Thunderbolt
    I generally recommend monoprice.com for cables and components.  But a female mini-displayport adaptor to hdmi may be a problem to find.
    Note, for DVI, if you want to use a 27" to it's full resolution you need dual-link DVI if you decide to use a DVI port.  Also DVI does not pass audio.
