Can I use thunderbolt as a cable to connect my computers screen to my tv?

Just wondering since I'm having a lot of trouble with my mini display port to hdmi cable...

Unfortunately, it's not possible. However, if your TV has got other ports different to HDMI (like DVI, VGA...), you can buy an adapter to connect the Mac with the TV. Or you can buy an Apple TV and stream the Mac onto the Apple TV with AirPlay Mirroring > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404

  • Can I use a midi/usb cable to connect to garage band?

    Can I use a midi/usb cable to connect to garage band? Or do I need to buy an interface such as M-Audio. I have the M-TRACK, but haven't connected it yet.

    Do I need two cables back and forth between the M-TRACK or just one OUT from the piano and IN from the M-TRACK?
    i must confess i haven't checked GBv10, but all previous versions (and i'm guessing GBv10 as well) have only supported MIDI-IN, so all you need is to run the keyboard's OUT to the interface's IN

  • Latest Macbook Air to 10/100Ether Net . Can I use thunderbolt to Gigabite Cable adaptor in this application?

    I have a new macbook air with a Thunderbolt connection. Can I use teh Thunderbolt to Gigabyte Cable adaptor with the STD 10/100 Ethernet cable and connection?

    Absolutely. The system just won't be taking advantage of the speed that the Gigabit adapter is capable.

  • Can I use a SH68-68EPM cable to connect a PXI-6704 with a BNC-2090?

    Hi,
    I was wondering if I could use a SH68-68-EPM cable to connect a PXI-6704 (sitting in a PXI-1002 Chassis and talking to my (Windows 7) PC via a PCI-8331) with a BNC-2090-box.The manual suggests to use a D1-cable but maybe it is possible to still get the analog outputs from the BNC-box although the cable is different?
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi cars10,
    The BNC-2090 is not compatible with the NI 6704 due to pin mapping.  You can use BNC connections via the CA-1000 or use a card from the analog output series family with the BNC-2090A or BNC-2110 as described in the user manual.

  • HT4614 Can I use Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable to copy from one macbook air to another?

    Can I use Thunderbolt cable to copy from one Macbook Air to another Macbook Air?

    Of course, but you will have to start one of the Macs into Target Disk Mode, pressing T key while the Mac is starting with the Thunderbolt cable connected, so the MacBook Air in Target Disk Mode will appear on the Finder sidebar of the other Mac as an external disk, so you can copy and transfer files from and to it

  • Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Can I use my 3G iPhone cable to charge my iPod Nano 3G?

  • Can I use the iPod Nano cable and AC power supply with the iPhone?

    Just purchased my iPhone 3G. Phone was in my pocket and the AT&T clerk neglected to put the box with the computer cable in the bag with the other accessories.
    Until I can pick it up, can I use my iPod Nano cable? The plug seems the same size but I don't want to break anything.
    Also, there was no power supply in the box due to the recall. Can I use the iPod AC power supply I bought for the iPod? It is the white brick about 3" by 3" by 1" with a USB socket in the side.
    Thank you for helping me with my start-up glitches.

    Ps. When you do get the accessories, look for a green dot (on the side where the prongs of the plug come out). If there, fine; if not, your adapter is subject to the recently announced recall of ultracompact USB adapters.

    The iPod, iPad & iPhone cables are identical, however, the chargers are not.

  • Can i use a usb-lightning cable instead of usb-usb to scan

    i lost my usb-usb male cable. looking on the internet to replace it i can only find usb-lightning cables, but they are designated for ipad, ipod, iphone. i have a wifi printer but need a usb cable in order to scan.
    alternatively can i use a generic usb cable in its place?

    A USB-USB male cable is a generic USB cable. You cannot use a cable intended for an iDevice.

  • Can I use the same USB cable for both the iPhone and the iPad?

    Brnad new user of the iPad - can I use the same USB cable for both the iPhone and the iPad?  The iPad does not charge when plugged into the computer or the wall (110V) adapter.  I've been able to sync in iTunes using the same cable on both.

    Actually, the iPad charger works just fine with iPhones and iPods.  The iPod/iPhone charger will charge an iPad very slowly but no harm will be done.

  • Can I use Logic Pro 9.1.6 on two computers with one licens

    I have download and install Logic Pro 9.1.6 on my MacBookPro 13". I record on location with my MacBook an wil edit and arrange the music on my iMac at home. Can I use Logic Pro 9.1.6 on two computers with one licens. I'm the owner of both computers. If it can where can I find the program on my MacBook? and how to install and register?

    Hi, is  the iMac also 10.6.8? I had an iMac die when 10.6.8 was installed, it worked at first but after some You Tube flash videos the screen just locked and no mouse clicking anywhere did anything. It turned out that most older iMacs [ mine was from august 2007] have a graghics chipset that can't handle Snow Leopard, there were [are?] 77 pages on this "locked screen"topic in the Snow Leopard forum. I checked out a web site that tells you how much your mac is worth by filling in the sereal number-mine was worth only $168, I may give it to a friend for his children to play with, although that seems unholy. I doubt anyone woud buy it,the problem is now so well known that even Apple certified resellars here in the Netherlands refuse to repair them,they claim Apple will revoke their certification if they replace the faulty Graphics unit,it is also VERY hard to get to that unit in an iMac, everything is so tightly packed inside.
    If your iMac is running Mountain Lion[10.8.0] you may have to change the app store preference to accept apps from all sites,normally ML will only allow app store apps to be downloaded.
