I am asking the Moderator to move your post  to the MacBook Pro forum, this is an iMac forum.
Good luck.

  • Unable to connect Macbook Pro to Sharp Aquos TV through thunderbolt HDMI

    I have a brand-spanking new Macbook pro 15" Retina with Thunderbolt
    A new moshi HDMI connector, and new MediaBridge hdmi cable connected to my Sharp Aquos TV and it's as if its not plugged in. 
    I've read a lot of helpful sites with instructions on how to do this and this just isn't working.
    What am I doing wrong?

    If you cannot use nslookup <PrinterIP> and get a name back, Bonjour (aka mDNS) is being blocked by the router.

  • How do I delete my Bookmarks on a Macbook Pro? According to the directions on "Help" it says to open the Bookmark icon and delete from the right. I don't see anything on the right.

    I have opened the Bookmark Icon. I see individual bookmarks on the left side of my computer screen. There isn't anything on the right side of my screen so how do I remove my Bookmarks?

    Highlight the Bookmark...hit the delete key.

    How to connect macbook pro to panasonic hd tv with hdmi cable

    Hi m,
    It depends which MPB you have and the inputs on the TV. The following assumes your TV has an HDMI input which will work with a computer.
    This is if your MBP is from April 2010 or newer:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241
    First connect the adapter to the MBP and the HDMI cable from the adapter to the TV, then go to System Preferences > Sound > Output > select HDMI.
    Or if your MBP is older than that and you have a Mini DisplayPort, you can use something like this: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/CBLMDPHDMID/
    If it's older than that, for video you need a DVI or mini DVI to HDMI or whatever input your TV has. For audio, you need a 3.5mm stereo mini plug to RCA or optical (Toslink), depending on what audio input your TV has.

  • How to connect MacBook Pro 17" Mountain Lion with HDMI port on TV, Panasonic TC-P55ST50

    Any experience with cables for connecting MacBook Pro 17" Mountain Lion with HDMI port on TV, Panasonic TC-P55ST50 (or similar)?

    It depend upon the model (age) of you MBP.  If you have a Thunderbolt or minidisplay port, then you will need a minidisplay/HDMI adapter.
    eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/CBLMDPHDMI/
    Or you can get an all in one:

    If you have an older mac with a DVI port, you will need something like this:
    http://www.amazon.com/DVI-HDMI-Cable-6ft-Male-Male/dp/B0002CZHN6
    Note that audio is supported via HDMI for MBPs 2010 and later.  Earlier ones require tapping the audio output port.
    Ciao.

    However, I still don't get a view of anything on the desktop except for the standard Apple swirl.
    Can you drag windows to the other display?
    In the "Arrangement" tab of "Displays" system preference, you can drag the display pictures to match the actual arrangement, drag the menu bar to the other display, or enable mirroring.

  • Update: audio problems connecting macbook pro to insignia TV: resolved

    There have been posts from users who have expressed frustration that they cannot get audio when they attempt to connect their macbook pro to an Insignia TV.
    http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=10830387
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2192206
    Insignia customer service also attempts to state that the pre-April 2010 macbook pros cannot get audio output to the TV, because the units are designed to get the audio on the same HDMI and no alternative audio input is available on the TV.
    http://community.insigniaproducts.com/t5/Televisions/Connecting-MacBook-Pro-to-T V/td-p/5564
    For the Insignia models (from 2010 onwards and possible some from 2009 as well), there is a simple workaround that does not seem to be published elsewhere on the internet (as far as I can see):
    Use the HDMI port 1 only (audio does not work with port 2, port 3 or port 4) to connect your macbook and you will receive 1080p video signal.
    Use a mini stereo audio cable (example link below) and connect your macbook audio output to a designated green color coded audio port on the TV located right next to the VGA. You will receive full stereo audio.
    Example link for mini stereo audio cable:
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00116VJIO

    I recently acquired a new Insignia TV and had sound trouble.  I went to Best Buy to inquire about the cable in the link above and the sales manager had doubts.  He recommended a RCA cable with a male connection at both ends.  The RCA jack is on the bottom edge of the TV display next to the VGA connection.  The sound worked perfectly using the RCA cable from the headphone jack on the Mac.  I connected the video with a HDMI adapter from the monitor mirroring port.

  • Can't connect macbook pro to internet with airport extreme

    Can't connect macbook pro to internet with airport extreme

    If you have ethernet still on your MBP plug it in by ethernet and tell me if that works.
    Tell me how the Airport is setup.. what broadband modem and router you have.
    What OS on the laptop? Yosemite I guess.. since it is the most troublesome.
    Did it work before whatever change was made? Has it worked in the past? When did it stop and what did you do that coincided with it stopping?
    Upgrade to Yosemite??

  • I have connected my macbook pro to my tv via MDP to HDMI port cable, all that is showing up is the basic desktop image without any icons, what do i do to correct this

    i have connected my macbook pro to my tv via MDP to HDMI port cable, all that is showing up is the basic desktop image without any icons, what do i do to correct this

    Your MBP is running in "extended desktop" mode, where the two screens together make one larger area to display windows. You can drag one or more windows from the primary (internal) screen to the secondary (TV) screen. By default, the secondary screen is off to the right of the primary screen.
    If you would prefer the two screens show the same image, you want to switch to "mirroring" mode. You will have to pick a single resolution for both screens, which may look poor on one or the other.
    Both the relative positions of the two screens in extended desktop mode and the switch to mirroring mode can be set in System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement.

  • Connecting macbook pro to two monitors?

    How do I connect two apple cinema displays (24" and 30") to a 15 inch macbook pro (mid 2010)?

    Mmm... the only thing I can think of right now is the  "Matrox DualHead2Go"
    http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/gxm/dh2go/
    However that requires DVI connections or Display port... So, you might need to get a pair of HDMI to DVI Adapters too..

  • HT201180 What type of Fire Wire cable to use to connect MacBook Pro 2009 to tape-based Sony TRV720 camcorder

    What type of Fire Wire cable to use to connect MacBook Pro 2009 to tape-based Sony TRV720 camcorder

    USB is the slowest. Firewire is faster. eSata is the fastest (and will be superceded by Thunderbolt).  The old Fire was 4 pin (Firewire 400 and is essentially obsolete), new is 9 pin, Firewire 800.  All of the will transmit data, simply a different speeds.
    For eSata connectivity, you MBP must have an express card slot (and the appropriate eSata connection card) and you external enclosure must have an eSata input.  eSata cables will only transmit data, therefor it will require power by Firewire or USB cables.
    Ciao.
