How to connect hdmi cable on hp g60 to sony bravia lcd?

how to connect hdmi cable on hp g60 to sony bravia lcd?

Hello sohagshahin,
It appears that your HDMI port is not working on the notebook. I will try to assist with this.
Have you verified that the port indeed does not work by trying other tv's or monitors? (try one of each if possible).
Have you tried other HDMI cables?
This document may also help you: Resolving HDMI Display and Sound Issues (Windows 7 and Vista).
Let me know how things go.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

Connecting HDMI Cable to HD BOX

I am connecting the HDMI Cable to the HD Box and it does not provide a picture. I does flash a DUI code when it tries to connect via the cable. Does this mean I have to upgrade my service to HDTV for the box to work as an HDTV Box and the HDMI cable will then produce the signal I need for the rest of the devices?

No. It means that your TV and the STB have a failure ot communicate. Search for "HDMI Handshake" and you will find multiple posts regarding this problem with the Motorola boxes. The boxes (HD or SD) always have all the video / audio outputs enabled at all times. Also, ALL of Verizon's tiers include some HD. Supposedly there will be a firmware update at some time in the future to fix this known isuue (it is less prevelent than it was on the previous firmware version).
The only solution (really a band aid) is to use component cables (red / gree / blue) for video and red / white for audio. This will still give a full 1080i HD signal.

Connecting a HDMI cable to my D20

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has had problems connecting HDMI cables to their D20 via an ATI FirePro 5700 cards.
I seem to not be able to get the cable to fit allthey way, and they keep popping out. It appears that the rails on either side of the video card back (i.e. where you connect DVI/HDMI cables to the back) seem to keep the cables fom going in all the way. I've been looking on the Inernet for HDMI connectors that might have longer connectors or thinner plugs, but have not been successful. I was thinking about using my Dremel to cut/sand the rails to create more room for the entire plug, or to sant some of teh casing of the plug to make it thinner, but both seem to be bad ideas, especially with regard to voiding warrenties.
Does anyone have any ideas.
Kind Regards,
AP
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Is your ATI FirePro 5700 from Lenovo, namely the option number 51J0510? If this is the case it has two Display Ports and one DVI, it doesn't have HDMI. Using the Lenovo Display Port to DVI adapter cable would be one option for you, another would be a Display Port to HDMI adapter.

Have Sony HDTV bought in 2003;the video in/out thingy doesn't fit the apple tv prong. What can I buy and where to modify so I can plug in Apple HDMI cable?

I have a 2002 Sony HDTV "ready" tv and am trying to hook up Apple TV2. On the back of the tv, the connection point where the HDMI cable goes in does not match the Apple connection HDMI cable. I'm guessing that I need some sort of connector that goes into the tv at one end and that will accept the Apple tv 30-pin HDMI cable Is there such a thing? What's it called and where can I buy it? Thanks,

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The Apple TV specifications state clearly that a TV with HDMI connection is required. DVI is not necessarily going to work as a number of people have found out, although many others have been able to get it to work.
A DVI cable may perform the same function as an HDMI cable for passing video signals but the hardware cards that it plugs into at each end may not.

HDMI Cable to Mac Cumputer

I have a Camcorder with HDMI port connection. How can I connect HDMI Cable to a Mac Computer?

Hi there,
You may want to double check the sound output device and make sure that your TV is selected.

Solution how to deal with cheap HDMI cables and some VGA adapters.

I've purchased cheap HDMI cable which I couldn't force to work. Basically after plugging in the screen on my mac blink blue for a second, but then everything is going back to normal, and screen seems to be not recognized. I checked the cable with my friend's mac, and it was working just fine, so I thought hey something is wrong with my mac, either the MiniDisplay Port or Lion (10.7) has some bug (friend is working on (10.6).
I was experimenting with VGA adapter and it showed that MiniDisplay Port is fine, unfortunatelly it is painfull because quality is lower, and audio has to be plugged in separately. Accidently I've plugged in HDMI while audio was connected regular way and it started. So I figured out that probably grounding in those cheap cable is not sufficient for some macs. So step, by step solution:
1. Plug in HDMI cable to your TV
2. Switch TV to the right setting (display given HDMI port)
3. Connect audio cable to your TV
4. Connect audio cable to your MAC
5. Connect HDMI cable to your mac.
6. Image should appear on your TV, you can change resolution if you like
7. To enable sound on TV go to System Preferences, choose Sound, Output tab, and choose your HDMI connected TV.
While testing my VGA adapter which was working fine but I never could make it work with my Panasonic TV, I found a way around. First you have to connect to regular monitor, or TV which is working, and then switch to TV. The reason why it is not working straight is probably to high resolution that mac is trying with this TV. In points:
1. Plug VGA adapter to monitor or TV that you know it is working.
2. Plug adapter to your mac
3. With adapter connected to mac switch VGA cable to your panasonic plasma tv.
I hope this soultions will help some of you.
Enjoy!

Well, I got mine directly from the Apple Store in Amsterdam and I got the most expensive one they had.. iwire.
Still stopped working after 4 weeks! (In Holland you have only 14 days to bring back stuff)
so careful what you say.

I have a MacBook Pro running 10.7.2. I am trying to import photos from my older Canon EOS-1D for the first time since my OS upgrade. iPhoto does not see the camera nor does Image Capture. IC says there is not a camera connected. Cable is known good.

If neither iPhoto not IC can seethe card it might suggest an issue with the card or the ports on the camera/mac.
Try reformat the card, change the ports and/or use a USB Card Reader.

I want to connect my Canon EOS 7D to my MacBook Pro and use it as a Monitor

Hello,
Anyone know how I can turn my MacBook Pro into a Monitor for my Canon EOS 7D HDSLR camera?
Thanks for any advice,

I don't think you can without some sort of capture card (very expensive, and because most MacBook Pros don't have a card, you need to use the FW800). MBP's Thunderbolt port only sends video signals out, you can't attach an HDMI to Mini DisplayPort cable from your camera to the MBP and expect to show video.
You could try a utility like Sofortbild.

Canon EOS 100D is listed as compatible in Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 6.01 but when I connect my camera a message appears telling it's not compatible with the operating system?

Canon EOS 100D is listed as compatible in Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 6.01 and when I have checked for software updates there are none available. I've downloaded the Canon software, connected to my mac via the cable and followed the instructions in the manual. Sadly I just get a message saying it's not compatible with the operating system. I've tried inserting the memory card into the mac to and it doesn't seem to see it. Can anyone help please?

Camera RAW ≠ Camera driver, the RAW update is for the .CR2 canon raw image file (in your case) compatibility.
What happens when you try to import photos using Image Capture or iPhoto?
Can you take a screenshot of the error message?
I always prefer and recommend using memory card import over using the camera.

Is the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark II compatible with iPad Connection Kit

Hi All,
First post in the forum. I was wondering if the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark II is compatible with the iPad connection kit via USB, as it uses CompactFlash not SD.
Thanks
Dill

Lightworksuk-
I would think so. My 5D Mark II and three other Canon cameras are compatible.
Some people have received an error message that their camera drew too much current from the USB adapter. In those cameras, there was usually a setting option to charge their batteries from the USB cable. By turning that option to NOT charge, the problem went away.
There are several CF to USB adapters on the market. I have a couple that work with the Camera Connection Kit's USB adapter, but others that draw too much current. For those, as well as cameras that draw too much current, use of a powered USB hub may solve the problem.

Camera connection kit + Canon EOS 7D,it works?

I'm planning to buy the apple's camera connection kit to use with my iPad 2 and my Canon EOS 7D.Im shooting RAW with an 16GB CF.There are any known issues that i may have?

I just tried several methods of transferring photos from my Canon 7D to my iPad 2 using the Camera Connection Kit. I was shooting both RAW and JPG, and used a Sandisk 16GB CF Card in my camera to save the photos.
Obviously, since the 7D takes CF cards and not SD cards, I used the USB dongle in the CCK. First I tried connecting the iPad to a Lexar CF card reader. I immediately got a message saying that the device requires too much power, even before I inserted the CF card into the reader. So that method didn’t work.
Next, with a CF card in the camera, I tried connecting the camera directly to the iPad using a USB cable. This method was successful. Upon turning on the camera, the photo program on the iPad activated and asked if I wanted to import my photos. I said yes, and all the images (both RAW and JPG) were transferred and viewable in the iPad.
Next, I tried transferring the 7D photos I just imported from my iPad over to my iMac for further editing in Aperture. This was also successful. My setup is such that when I connect my iPad to my iMac, the iMac’s Image Capture program is automatically started and from there I can move the iPad photos to Aperture or a folder. For these tests, I imported the photos into a folder on my desktop. I started Aperture (v. 3.1.3) and imported the photos in the folder into a new project. All the photos (both RAW and JPG) were successfully imported, including all the metadata from the camera. From there I could manipulate the photos just like any others in Aperture.
During my tests, I found that the choice of USB cable you use matters. At first, I used a thin USB cable that I had previously used for charging duty (in fact, it has a label that says Charging Use Only on it). It didn’t work at all for transferring data. However, when I switched to a thicker USB cable (from Apple coincidentally) that could handle data, the photos transferred from the camera just fine.
I still don’t think the iPad is the ideal photo backup device, due primarily to its relatively small storage capacity (especially if you shoot RAW), but at least these tests show it can in principle be done with higher-end SLR cameras that take CF cards.
Hope this helps someone.

How to connect my Satellite C650 to TV with HDMI cable?

Connecting my laptop with my television??
I have Satelite C650 laptop which isnt that old, but ive connected my laptop to the television using a HDMI cable and it isnt working.
The television is a samsung 1080p one, i would be grateful for some advice.
Many thanks
Claire

Hello Claire
I presume you use your notebook with original preinstalled OS that you got with your notebook so it should work without problems.
Connect your notebook to the TV with HDMI cable. If your TV has several HDMI ports please enable right port on TV and after doing this use FN+F5 key combination to switch from notebook to the TV.
When you use FN+F5 key combination can you see several options including HDMI option?

My Canon MX 922 does not scan. My printer is connected via cable. Wireless doesn't work either.

My Canon MX 922 does not scan. My printer is connected via cable. Wireless doesn't work either. I get an error message with multiple suggestions but none of them apply to my situation.
I am so dissatisfied with this printer. I'm sorry I got it from Amazon because now it is a hassle to return it. I will never buy another Canon.
The printer menus are confusing. I hate using it. I loved my previous Canon which finally stopped working after many years, that's why I purchased a newer Canon model. Never again. Stick with cameras.
Marcy Hotz

This note won't be as angry and frustrated as the last one...
Because I still had my old printer drivers and other applications on my hard drive, I think the application was trying to connect with the old printer. I deleted all the old stuff.
I also had several scanning applications on my drive which just confused me.
When I used the actual Canon MX922 application, I was able to scan but could only save as JPG, TIF or BMP (and one more, I forget which). So I did some research on the Canon site and found out how to save documents as PDF files using the Canon IJ Scan Utility.
It works now. So I'm satisfied, will keep this maching. I just had to take some time, sit down and focus on the problem.

How to connect a MBP to a BENQ external monitor using a HDMI cable and a HDMI to mini display adapter?

Hi, I have just bought a brand new HDMI cable and HDMI to minidisplay adapter and tried to connect my Macbook Pro up. The external display knows it is there but it is not getting any signal. I have tried on another TV and it also says no signal and I also tried using another Mac but it still didn't work.
Can anyone help?

In some versions of Mac OS X, with the Displays pane open, holding the Option key will show the detect displays button in the lower right.
I am using OS X Mavericks. Where did the Detect Displays button go?
You can find the Detect Displays button in the Displays section of System Preferences. Once there, press and hold the Option key to see the Detect Displays button in the lower-right corner. You can click this button to manually detect another display.
Another technique is to sleep and wake your computer, which will send the detect display sequence as well.
