    Connecting MAC Air to Projector - which is better, hdmi, vga or usb?

    HDMI is thje preferred digital replacemnt for older analog video standards, which your other choices use. It offers far higher signal and definition quality.
    Apple has an adapter that is used with your Thunderbolt port/ Mini DisplayPort, if yours is equipped as such.
    I've not had a problem with this. It is a Belkin.

    How can i connect mac book pro to appel tv3

    To do what?  It's not clear from the question.
    If you want to play iTunes library content on the unit you need to enable Home Sharing on both, have them on the same network and then look for your iTunes library under the Computer icon - iTunes must be running of course.
    Communications can be blocked by firewalls or security software sometimes.
    To factory restore a black AppleTv2 or 3 you connect it to the computer running itunes with a USB to microUSB lead alone and start itunes.

  • How to deploy connection (Mac OS X Yosemite to Windows RDS) through the RD Gateway with Two Factor authentication (Safenet OTP) on Session host?

    Good day!
    Could you please help me? How to deploy connection (Mac OS X Yosemite to Windows RDS) through the RD Gateway with Two Factor authentication on Session host? How to open an authentication dialog that is the same as in Windows when logging on to network resources
    in Windows (Windows Security)?
    Our test environment: We have one RDS 2012 R2 server (all roles in one) and one session host in collection. On the session host installed Safenet Network Logon and it under GPO which disable all authentication, only OTP.

    Hi Sir,
    It seems that you are going to integrate 3rd party product into AD for authentication .
    I would suggest you to contact the vendor of Safenet for this deployment  scenario  :

  • Connect mac air to mac computer

    Hi,
    I want to connect my mac Air to my Mac desktop.  How do I do this.  I am logged on using one icloud name but the two machines have different stuff on them. I want them to sync.
    Thanks

    It would probably be easier to get a wireless router. Your ISP might even provide one. If you want to set up an ad hoc network to share your desktop computer's internet, this may help.

  • Connecting Mac Air to TV and sound problems

    I have a Mac Air 13, 2011 and have connected it to my Sharp Aquos TX using the Mac HDMI adapter, I get picture on TV and computer but sound only on computer.  What do I need to do in the settings?

    Select your TV as the output device in System Preferences > Sound > Output tab > click on the TV.
    You can also hold OPT as you click on the sound icon in the menubar to select the output device.

  • Connecting Mac Air to AOC monitor

    Hi
    My AOC monitor (USB) won't connect to my Mac Air. When I plug the monitor, the AOC logo comes on, then nothing.
    It works great with my MacBook Pro.
    I read a bunch of various ideas about it (including some that say that it works fine with Air) but can't find my solution.
    thanks for your help!!

    You have it set up as an extended desktop rather than mirroring. That means you can drag a window from your MBP onto that monitor. It's like an extension of the existing monitor. If you want mirroring, which shows the same on both, go to Displays in System Preferences and change it.

  • How do I connect Mac Book Air with HD TV No Apple Tv available

    Hey vickitaunus,
    Thanks for the question. Your MacBook Air has a Thunderbolt port that can be used to connect Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cables. We have a few offerings in our store:

  • How do I connect Macbook Air to Macbook via ethernet crossover cable?

    Hi all,
    For the life of me, I'm having a lot of troubles connecting my Macbook Air to Macbook, here is what I've done so far:
    1. Turned on sharing in System preferences on both systems and given "read and write" access to "myself", "users" and "everyone".
    2. Then connected a ethernet cable to both macbook and macbook air (via original Apple USB ethernet)
    3. When I go to Finder > Shared on both systems, they say cannot open drop box insufficient privileges.
    Please someone link to step by step tutorial of Mac OS X 10.5 sharing through ethernet cable or correct me on what I'm doing wrong, and I don't have firewire cable otherwise things would've easier .
    Thanks in advance!

    You are probably over thinking the problem.
    Do not use a crossover cable. Just connect the two machines directly with a standard ethernet cable and they will auto assign ip addresses and be accessible to each other. The ethernet chips in both machines will detect the cable, etc and it "just works".
    Also your sharing settings do not need to be that open. I would recommend to pulling them back so that you are not giving the world access to your machine.
