Can't make a connection between my tv and laptop

I can make a connection between my laptop and tv as far as being able to view the picture I have as my wallpaper on the tv, but that is all.  If I change the wallpaper picture on my laptop it will change on the tv also, but again that is all I can do. That is far as I can get.  Just a picture, no icons, no nothing.  I have connected using a 15 pin cable on both ends.  I have windows xp.  There must be a setting in control panel, display or somewhere but I cannot find it.
HELP

Thanks, but that didn't work.  Nothing happened.  This time however I completely turned off the tv and computer.  When I booted up the tv screen showed my password sign in screen.  I entered my pass word,  The screen momentarily showed my complete desktop, both  wallpaper and icons but after about a second or two it blinked and then showed only my wallpaper as before.  Puzzling.  There has to be an answer somewhere.
Thanks for your help.

  • How can i make a connection between an application and a database over net

    dear sir
    how can i make connection between an appliction and a database over internet while the client side appliction is behind proxy and firewall
    for example how the live update of norton antivirus makes connection to the data server to make comparetions and get new virus definitions
    does that depend on sockets technology ?
    what references can guide me to the solution please?

    The ability to do so depends entirely on the JDBC driver implementation having some proxy method. It needs to recognize the HTTP or SOCKS proxy and use them to connect, and the firewall and proxy need to allow those specific port connections.
    To the best of my knowledge, all of these update utilities, e.g. live update for Netscape, Norton, etc., do not connect directly to the database. As it is, no sane security person would allow a database to be exposed to the Net. Rather, they connect using HTTP or HTTPS, which normally traverses firewalls just fine, to connect to a Web or application server on the far end. That application server then parses the request and retrieves whatever it needs to from the database.
    In other words, you cannot have a 2-tier client/server application. You need a 3-tier application:
    your client -> Web/app server -> database
    where the connection from your client to the Web/app server is over http or https through the firewall and proxies.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can't make a connection between Apple TV and Epsom projector?

    When i set this up the screen opens fine for about 5 seconds (apple icon visible) but then disappears and subsequently blinks between a blank screen and the default projector home screen. The epsom projector doesnt have hdmi so i use a VGA adapter to connect the Apple TV to the vga cable. by the way, i have ruled out hardware probs as the vga cable works fine connected to a PC, plus te Apple TV works on a Hdmi projector in the building. has anybody had similar experience, or wisdom on this? thanks

    could be 2 things
    1. the appletv default use a resolution the projector dont support
    solution is to connect it to somethign which does and lower the appletv resolution
    2. it's a hdcp issue as VGA don't support hdcp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection

  • Can't establish wireless connection between the printer and computer.

    I recently upgraded my wireless to an Apple AirPort Time Capsule. I'm able to set up the printer via USB cable. And I'm able to set up the printer on the network via the Airport WPA utility. However I cannot establish a wireless connection between the computer and the printer. When I go to the printers window  in my system prefereces, there is no wireless printer available to add in the "available printers" menu. Only the USB version printer is listed and of course when I disconnect the USB cable it shows as offline.I've tried all the fixes on HP's support pages. I've tried reinstalling the printer on both the router and the computer numerous times. The only thing I haven't done is reinstall the printer using the "Install Wizard" software that is supposed to come with the printer - (mine never came with it in the first place and of course HP doesn't have it available for download). And when I reset the printer to factory settings, then connect it to the computer via the USB, there is no installation software that pops up. Cant even find the **bleep** thing in "Finder". (I'm assuming that it should show up as some sort of external device.) I've checked to make sure both computer and printer are on the same network. (sometimes my computer will grab a connection with the next nearest network.) I've checked all the settings for the printer via the HTML configuration utility. I've even updated my Macbook software and restarted it multiple times. Note: the printer actually worked for a bit when I first switched routers, but the printer's wireless function went offline several times and then quit  altogether. Really frustrated that I bought another HP product thinking this time things would be different. HP is no help unless you want to pay $$ for a phone call. I'm about ready to take this thing out in the desert to use for target practice and never buy another HP product ever again.

    Hi , I saw your post regarding the problems you are having with your LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer not showing on your Macintosh computer. I may have found some resources for you. 
    I have a few questions for you, so I can offer some additional assistance:Before you upgraded to the Apple AirPort Time Capsule, was the printer working wirelessly without any issues?
    When you say; 'I reset the printer to factory settings', how where you trying to do this? 
    I found some instructions from this post: How do I reset my Laserjet p1102w to its defaults, copied here for you:
    To restore the printer back to factory settings, turn the printer off, hold down the wireless button and the cancel button (x button) then turn the printer back on and don't release the two buttons until the printer stops making noise. (When they say turn the printer off, I think they mean unplug the power cable.)
    "I've checked to make sure both computer and printer are on the same network."  Do you know if you are able to access the printers Embedded Web Server (EWS)?To access the EWS - Make sure that the Ready light () is on and that the printer is idle and silent.Press and hold the Cancel button (), and release it when the Ready light () begins blinking.The configuration page prints.Type the IP address or host name of the product in the address field of a supported Web browser, and then press Enter on your keyboardLet me know if this page loads 
    To answer a few more items you have listed:... When I go to the printers window in my system preferences, there is no wireless printer available to add in the "available printers" menu.This could be an issue with your print system, I recommend resetting the printing system and then Repair Disk Permissions - after that try to add the printer again.
    ... the "Install Wizard" software that is supposed to come with the printer - (mine never came with it in the first place and of course HP doesn't have it available for download)HP provides their software/drivers to Apple to be released through your Apple software updates. You can review this document on how to Install a Mac Printer Driver Using Apple Software Update. Which leads into your next point...
    ... there is no installation software that pops upWhen you connect the USB cable your mac may still recognize the printer software as being already installed - check for apple updatesOn the Mac, click the Apple menu (), and then click Software Update, or click About this Mac, and then click Software Update. A list of available updates displays.
    ... Not seeing the printer in "Finder" From what I understand most printers will not show in Finder unless you install a memory card into a supported port on certain printer models, only then will it read it like an external device. A few more things you can check are that the new settings in the Apple AirPort Time Capsule are setup to allow the printer to communicate. There are several of these settings listed in this document; Tips and Workarounds for Common Wireless Network Printer Issues.  HP regularly releases firmware updates that may also correct the problem you are experiencing. You can click on this link to Getting Printer Updates for HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer.  I did find 2 more documents that may offer some additional information as well;HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer - Connecting the Printer After Changing Your Wireless NetworkAn 'Unable to Find Printer' Error Displays for the HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer  Please let me know if any of these steps resolved your issue, or the details of what happened.  I look forward to hearing from you, hopefully with good news!   Thanks, 

  • Can't establish ftp connection between a Xserve and a PB

    We want to use a Xserve (Mac OS X Server 10.4.8) to provide webhosting, but experience problems in establishing ftp connections using a PowerBook (Mac OS X 10.4.8).
    On a WinXP-based notebook using the same Internet connection, anything works fine, just not on my PowerBook.
    This is what happens when trying to establish a ftp connection (via terminal):
    I type: ftp [email protected]
    Returns:
    220 star1.local FTP server ready.
    331 Password required for user.
    I provide the password, anything looks fine, get this output:
    230 User starenterprise logged in.
    Remote system type is UNIX.
    Using binary mode to transfer files.
    ftp>
    Okay, now I want to see what files are in the directory using "dir" command ("ls" brings same result). This output is shown:
    502 'EPSV': command not understood.
    227 Entering Passive Mode (132,78,123,92,42,115)
    Now I can either press CTRL+C to escape or when waiting around one minute, then it states this:
    421 Service not available, remote server timed out. Connection closed
    On a ftp client software like CuteFTP Mac it shows "Can't open data connection" instead of, but result is the same.
    I read through some articles I found here, but nothing compared to my problem. Please help.
    I should mention one thing Apple's support told me: Since I have the same username and UID on my PowerBook as well as on the xServe, it could bring problems. However I have then added a new user to my PowerBook, result is the same. And Apple's support left helpless so far.

    You said: "Not really answered, the problem persists and I now go on and let
    Apple work on it again"
    As a native English speaker, I must say (and doubt any would disagree) that
    your statement implied: "No one here has actually helped me fix this problem,
    and now I'm waiting for Apple to fix it"
    Please take care to the word "again" I used; this implies that Apple has tried to solve the issue before but failed (in fact, they stated to call me back, but this is weeks ago) and so I posted this here at the discussions.
    Unfortunately I only have access to the "free" support (well, free is not the right word when paying 12 cents per minute for the phone call).
    And this means (at least I can speak for the German part of Apple) that operators on the phone look at their knowledgebase and sending articles by e-mail; questions going deeper are resulting in a "we call you back" answer. Sometimes they phone back, sometimes not. Sometimes they are helpful, sometimes (or should I say "in most cases") they just give hints or ask me to investing a nice amount into premium support.
    Don't misunderstand me in the direction that I demand assistance from this forum - I'm more than gradeful if I get help (and rewarded this always with giving points), it has saved me several times (many, many, many times) for doing time consuming investigations and making trial-and-error experiences by myself. If I cannot get more assistance, well I have to look elsewhere and so be a bit impertinent to Apple's support. Perhaps it helps
    You are right, FTP itself works correctly. It even works fine on the WinXP notebook residing at the same LAN as my PB. Therefore the issue is at the PB's firewall very likely (or a strange relationship between two firewalls which seems not to affect WinXP).
    But as you indicate, it makes no sense to lower down security just for doing ftp, especially since SSH works well. However since I have no problems doing ftp sessions with other servers, I would be eager to find the reason why it refuses in this case, even this just means feeding my curiosity
    So if I come to new insights, I post them here. But I feel that I'll really need your wishes for luck to solve this problem Let's see...

  • How to make HTTP connection between a midlet and a php server?

    As the title above, can anyone share how to make a HTTP connection between those 2? J2ME and PHP. Thanks a lot!

    Can you be a little more specific on what you really want.
    When i started doing j2me application, i was required to be able to comunicate to a oracle client database, and my first though was using PHP based pages to comunicate and do the query. Later they would just generate the answer and get it on the cellphone. You can communicate with a PHP server via either GET or POST. I'd choose POST as is more secure IMO.
    Here are quite a good ammount of examples of how you can do it
    http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/J2ME/Networks.htm
    They aren't PHP based examples, but you have can an idea of how it can be done

  • Can't complete facetime connection between macbook pro and iPad

    Last week I had to download the latest version of facetime from the mac app store because the beta version (0.9) had expired.  After I installed it on my 15" macbook pro (last model that had the removable battery) running the latest version of Snow Leopard 10.6.x, I tried to facetime with my iPad (3rd gen).  It would ring, but when I would try to accept the connection, it wouldn't make the connection.  I was using the same account/user id on both the iPad and the macbook pro.  I added my wife's email address to the mac and selected her address and then was able to connect and I thought my problems were solved.  At this time, both the macbook pro and iPad were on the same wifi network.
    Fast forward a few days and I'm overseas and trying to facetime with my wife and so I attempt to connect and it rings and she accepts the incoming connection, but then it never connects and I get a message that it failed.  She tries to connect to me and the same thing happens - it rings, i touch the button to accept and it says connecting and then never connects.  I was able to connect with no issues when she was using her iPhone 4S when I am in London and she is at home on the same wifi network as the macbook pro is on.  I had her sign out of my apple account in facetime on the macbook pro and sign in with her apple account that is associated with a completely different email address.  We tried to connect and still had the same problem - rings, hit answer, connection fails.
    I can also connect with my iPhone 4 to my iPad (both on the same wifi network, data roaming turned off on the phone so I know it is wifi only)
    Since I can connect to my iPhone and my wife's iPhone, I'm pretty certain that the problem isn't with the wifi network on either end and it has something to do with facetime on the macbook pro.  When I was googling for answers, it seems like this issue isn't an uncommon occurence, but I haven't been able to find any solutions either.

    No.

  • Wireless connection between cable imac and laptop Windows,

    This should be an easy question so here goes. I currently have an Imac with a cable connection. I plan to buy a Windows laptop within the next week. I want to be able to access the internet with the laptop from another room. There are airports and routers from Apple and wireless network cards for Windows. I'm confused. What's the simplest way for my Mac to wirlessly connect to the Window's laptop so that I can access the web from another room?

    1. Your new laptop needs to have a wireless card.
    2. You then need a wireless router with several lan ports.
    The iMac will connect to the router via ethernet cable to one of the lan ports and your laptop should connect via the wireless connection. There are many wireless routers out there that will do the job. Check out the Linksys wrt54g. make sure your laptop comes with a wireless card built it.

  • How to make a connection between an application and a Coherence Grid?

    Hello,
    We're starting with Oracle Coherence.
    How do I connect an application (for example running in JDeveloper) to an existing grid?
    I used the following tutorial to get started with Coherence.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/vohra-coherence.html?msgid=6521631
    Within JDev an Coherence instance is started, data is entered and queried.
    Next I'd like to connect this to a running Coherence instance, (started with [Coherence home]\bin\coherence.cmd)
    When I start the coherence.cmd and run the application from within JDev, I can see a connection is made
    Map (?):
    2008-05-13 13:15:24.667 Oracle Coherence GE 3.3.1/389 <D5> (thread=Cluster, member=4): Member(Id=5, Timestamp=2008-05-13 13:15:24.484, Address=10.35.1

    I am, however, not able to retrieve the data which is entered via JDev.
    (1) What do I need to do to distribute the data entered via the Jdev application to the Coherence grid
    (2) How can I get access to the data within the Coherence Grid(do I need to to change the Cache, Map or something else)?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards Leon

    Hi Leon,
    In order to see the entries created by the sample application within JDev, you will need to do several things:
    1. Ensure that at least one storage enabled Coherence node is running, by executing cache-server.cmd at least once (coherence.cmd starts storage-disabled console only).
    2. Run coherence.cmd and change to the appropriate cache from the console:
    Map (?): cache VirtualCache
    (the name should be the same as the one defined in cache-config.xml and Java code)
    3. Execute commands against the cache:
    Map (VirtualCache): list
    This should give you a list of all the entries within a VirtualCache.

  • How to use Port to make a connection between Import Server and Source

    Hi guys,
    I wanna make a Import Server and Manager work with a MDM Repository and a Client System. I want the Import Server could listen the port, whenever the Client System want to sent some files to the Import Server, the Server could automatically import files.
    I know how to import a file by hand, but how to make it automatical? Use Port in Type?
    Regards
    Wang Yu
    Message was edited by: Yu Wang

    Hi,
    You can automate the Import or Syndication process using Ports.
    <b>Requirements:</b>
    1. Import Server need to be Installed.
    2. Client Systems need to be defined for the repository.
    3. Create the Port with type Inbound (for Import process). OutBound (for Syndication process)
    4. Associate a predefined map with the Port.
    <b>Note:</b>
    Each port is associated with only one map.
    While creating the ports, When you select the client system, it only populates the maps defined for that client system.
    Make sure if you want to use the same client system for both import and syndication.
      Specify the Client system type as "Inbound/Outbound"
    <b>Steps involved:</b>
    Using MDM Console, In the repository Admin section
    1. Select Client Systems-> this is where you have to define the Client Systems , which you are going to use for the ports.
    Make sure you have define the Import Maps for the specific repository,specific Client System using Import Manager.
    2. Select Ports->This is where you create Port and other related information related to it.
    Once the Port is created, You see a specific directory structure created in the MDM Server installation directory
    <<MDM Server Install_Dir>> ->Distributions -> <<DBMSHOST_DBMS_TYPE>> -> <<Repository Name>> ->
    <<Port Type>> -> <<Client System ID>> ->
    <<Port Code>>
    Under the above sturcture it will have the following directories
    -> Ready
    -> Archive
    -> Status
    -> Log
    <i><b>Ready Folder :</b></i>
    -> In Import Process the import Server will pick up the file from this directory based on the specifc interval you specify in mdis.ini file(This can be found in Import Server installation directory).
    <b><i>Archive Folder:</i></b>
    -> Once the file is picked by the Import Server from Ready folder and if it is processed then the file will be moved to this di
    rectory with some date stamp suffixed.
    <b><i>Log Folder:</i></b>
    ->Log information for that process
    <b><i>Status Folder:</i></b>
    ->Status of process will be kept in this folder.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks and Regards

  • I can't restablish wifi connection between an C4580 and a Macbook Pro Tosemite 10.10.1

    The printer worked both with USB or WiFi till I must change my router. The setup program contained in the instalation disk broke in the final step so I'm unable to configure the wifi. 
    The set print and scan, Driver version is 5.0.4.
    What can I do?

    Hi @Xoan,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I believe the issues you're running into are because your C4580 doesn't have an HP software package for OS X 10.10, so to reconfigure the wireless, you will have to take a slightly different approach
    I'd recommend that you follow the steps in this Re: Photosmart C4780 post that I did earlier this year and those steps should help. To restore the network defaults please go to page 19 of your printer's User Guide and it will explain.
    Let me know how things go and if you're able to get things working wirelessly!

  • Connectivity between Oracle database and client...

    Hi guys,
    I was asked to make a connection between oracle client and database via internet so that our clients can access the database from different parts of the country, and the data that is transmitted in the internet does not require security consideration. And I have successfully implemented this.
    But later onwards they asked me to structure it in such a way so that clients must be able to select, insert, update and delete data offline, in case there is online connectivity problem.
    So my question is, are there any possibilities in oracle to temporarily store data that are available in the oracle database to the client side and then later onwards transfer those datas once the clients are available online. Or are there any other alternative ways...
    Additional Information - Client access the database through an application created by VB.
    Please do help me on this project.

    Asif.You probably should do a cost/risk analysis. Where you are headed might be able to be done (but it will require that the "clients" also have their own copy of the database) but it won't be easy and it certainly won't be cheap, either in initial implementation or in on-going maintenance. The alternative is to take a hard look at your network connections and see if it wouldn't be cheaper/easier to be able to ensure that it is reliable. Remember "the internet" won't break, it is highly redundant. If you have connectivity issues, they will almost certainly be in your own equipment and configurations, so your (your organization) will have the ability to address and fix any issues there.
