Fn F7 defaults from Presentation on Projector and Notebook back to My Normal Display Settings

I am using my T61 to project slides in class. When I connect it to the data projector, turn on the data projector, and use Fn F7 to switch from My Normal Display Settings to Presentation on Projector and Notebook, the signal does not get through to the projector. When I check Fn F7 again, I see that the scheme is back to My Normal Display Settings. What am I doing wrong?

Yes, I experienced the same problem. In my case it was caused by the VGA cable. After replacing the installed cable with a high-quality cable, the projector display was stable.
Interestingly, my old HP notebook worked fine with the projector and the installed cable. The problem occurred only with my new T61. Maybe the electrical characteristics are slightly different, or a specific signal which was not used by the old VGA interface was degraded. I use a cable with pin 9 connected. I have not tested a cable without pin 9.
Hope this helps, Carsten.

  • I changed from english to spanish and then back to english and now it does not recognise english when i type emails. how do i get it back to english?

    i changed the lan uage of my iphone 3gs from english to spanish and then back to english. now it does not recognise enghlish but seems to be using a mix of languages. how do i get it back to english please?

    Please check in Settings: General: Keyboard: International Keyboards how many there are and which.
    If there is more than one you can either delete the ones that you don't use, or if you want to type on different ones at different times you can change between them using the key with a world that appears when you are using the keyboard.

    I have a first generation ipod shuffle and the light keeps turning from orange to green and blinking back and forth. What should I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • When I try to disable cellular data in the settings for my apps it will toggle fine, but once I exit and go back in to the cellular settings its back on again all by itself.

    I have had a problem with my iphone 4s for some time now but I have just been so busy to try and fix it. When I try to disable cellular data in the settings for my apps it will toggle fine, but once I exit and go back in to the cellular settings its back on again all by itself. However, even though it says the data is on, I can’t use the data when I don’t have wifi. I tried restoring my phone a few times and the last time I did that, it wouldn’t turn my service on so I had to talk with a Verizon agent for a long time trying to fix it and finally they simply sent me another phone. I thought hey new phone, this part will be fixed. However, I got my service to work but it’s still the same problem with the cellular data. I have just left it alone and not worried about it, but it’s still not fixed and thought I could ask on here if anyone had any ideas. It has something to do with the apps actually installed on the iphone. Apps like the mail, safari, settings, itunes apps, etc. All my other apps turn on and off just fine. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Read the User's Guide... it covers how to backup and sync the device as designed.

  • Can you use apple tv to project from a regular projector and mac/ipad?

    I am trying to project things from an ipad to a projector - wireless, without a HD but a regular projector and a Mac. Can Apple TV help me do that or do I need an actual HD TV to use the Apple TV to project.

  • Photos were deleted from my camera roll and not backed up. Is there any way to retrieve them??

    Photos were deleted from my camera roll and I hadn't backed them up anywhere. Is there any way of getting them back??

    If they were on the iphone at last sync, then you may be able to restore from backup and get them back.
    Otherwise, they are gone.

  • From iPhoto to Aperture and now back to iPhoto?

    Hi, all:
    About 15 months ago, I bought and dl'd a copy of Aperture from the App Store because it was so much cheaper than retail.  What I've realized, though, is that I bit off more than I can chew, in terms of features and learning curve, and I would like to move everything back to iPhoto.
    What's the best way to do this?
    I appreciate any and all feedback.
    Thanks!
    Bill in CT

    Aperture and iPhoto are entirely different applications that work in very different ways.
    The only communication between the two is as follows:
    Aperture is able to parse the iPhoto Library to allow it to import the contents while stacking the Originals and Modified versions, preserving metadata and so forth.
    Aperture can share its Previews with the iLife apps, including iPhoto.
    That's it.
    So, specifically, what interaction there is between the two is designed to facilitate migration from iPhoto to the more powerful app. After that, iPhoto has exactly the same relationship to the Aperture Library as, say, Pages or iMovie.
    iPhoto has no knowledge of, and knows nothing of how the Aperture Library works. It cannot read the Aperture library. If you want to migrate back to iPhoto:
    1. Export all your Masters to the Finder
    2. Export all your Versions (if you choose to... but note the caveat below)
    You can write the metadata to the files on export - check out the Export presets. Note that you cannot export Faces. There is no convention for sharing Faces. The best you can do is use Faces as a basis for keywording.
    Import them from the Finder into iPhoto.
    And here's the caveat: Note that there is no way to associate the masters with the versions in iPhoto, so you'll have apparent duplicates if you choose to import the versions

  • When my photos are backed up to my iCloud, and i delete them from my camera roll and then back up my photos again, the pics i deleted are still on my icloud taking up space?

    im trying to free up space on my iCloud from pics i had on my camera roll that i dont need or want that did get backed up to my iCloud. i wasnt aware that pics stay there after i delete them from my camera roll. if thats correct.

    You don't need to delete photos from your camera roll to save on backup sizes, you can turn individual items on and off for back up in your iCloud back up settings.
    Apple States that the last 3 back ups are accessible, which means the photos from your back up may not be removed immediately.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • I modified graphics colors and can't get back to a normal display

    It does not help to try and delete Foxfire and re-download it. If I start Foxfire and then start Internet Explore, the bad color scheme is applied to Internet Explorer so the problem has to do with Foxfire load parameters.

    Are you unable to use Firefox at the moment ?
    Reinstalling Firefox will not solve the problem, because it tries to retain settings, but take care, you are in danger of loosing bookmarks and history if you are not careful.
    The problem is easier to sort out with Firefox running. Do NOT use any delete settings option when uninstalling , not sure how it is worded - (at least until the profile has been successfully copied somewhere safe)
    '''First step''' is to try starting firefox in [[safe mode]] but initially do not change any of the listed settings in the first window dialogue, just click the continue button.

  • I recently upgraded my iPod Touch G4 with IOS 5. However, I cannot use album arts to select my songs any more. Every time I try to do it, the screen will freeze and jump back to the normal Apps screen. What can be possibly wrong?

    Does anyone has the same issue after IOS 5 upgrade?

    I have experienced the same issue with my 32gb 4g touch since upgrading to IOS 5.
    The problem seems to be caused by very large album art graphics. When the album art screen freezes and the ipod jumps back to the apps screen the ipod app is actually crashing (presumably caused by a memory issue).
    The short term solution I found is to simply reduce the size of the album art graphics files used (via itunes). Since I have reduced the file sizes of my album art the ipod app has not crashed. 
    There does still seem to be an issue with the smoothness of the cover flow app which is much more laggy and jerky since the ios5 upgrade - this was reported during beta testing so hopefully apple will address this issue.

  • I keep getting a green screen whenever I play videos and I can't find the "Display" Settings

    In fact, I don't think I even have a "Display" box. I looked at the step by step tutorial but whenever I right click there is not "display" box. I'm using a Windows 8 laptop. And the problem started a few days ago. Every video I play is green screen. I thought it was just on youtube but I went to other websites and it's the same problem. How can I fix this? Please help, thank you!

    "Green" stuff usually indicates a conflict with the graphics drivers, but I would think that that Windows 8 would have the latest drivers already installed.
    What is your display adapter, device driver & date?  See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765

    how do i change the passcode for using my ipad which i created when i set up findmyiphone.  this is different from my apple id and password

    On both your devices go to Settings>iCloud, then scroll down and click "Delete Account". You can then sign back in using your updated details.
    Note: "Delete Account" will not delete data from iCloud, it will simply remove the account from your device.
