HT201343 Apple TV as display

Can I set my MacBook Air so it automatically connects to my Apple Tv when I am near it?

Hi,
That will be possible in a few months with the release of Mountain Lion.
Take a look http://www.apple.com/macosx/mountain-lion/features.html#airplay
I can't wait!

    I am having this same issue. Im not sure if this is the cause but I think this is keeping PowerDVD Ultra 11 from playing back Bluray under Windows 7 / Bootcamp

  • How to Connect Early 2011 MBP 13" to Apple 20" Cinema Display at 1680x1050?

    My early 2011 MacBookPro will only display 1280x800 on an external Apple 20" Cinema Display. The MBP's specs say that it will support dual displays and video mirroring simultaneously at full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 2560x1600 on an external display. The 20" Cinema Display specs indicates that it supports an optimum resolution of 1680x1050. The 20" display is connected to the MBP through it's Thunderbolt port using an Apple Mini Display Port to DVI connector. No luck.
    I've tried using the latest version of SwitchResX set to 1680x1050. It says it is configured to 1680x1050 but the display does not respond.
    Anyone had success setting up this combination of MPB and Cinema Display at the max resolution of 1680x1050?

    To clarify. The MacBook Pro displays 1280x800 and the Apple Cinema Display mirrors it at 1280x800. I cannot get the ACD to display at it's max capable resolution of 1680x1050.
    The MPB has 16GB ram so 512 SDRAM is available to the Intel HD Graphics 3000 chipset.

    I Wish to connect my 6 year old Apple 20" Cinema Display to an orignal MacBook Air which does not have a Fire-Wire port. Is this possible? Any advice would be appreciated. I have the Micro-DVI to DVI adapter. Norm

    The FireWire cable is just for the FireWire ports on the display.  The display will run without it.

  • Mini DisplayPort adapter for 23" Apple HD Cinema Display?

    hello all,
    I'm sure this has been asked and answered here, but I can't find it! (grrr...)
    I've got an 23" Apple HD Cinema display and a new iMac. The iMac has a "mini DisplayPort". Now, the Cinema Display has a 3 x 10-pin (not 3 x 8) DVI connector. The WIKI thing about DVI calls it a "DVI M1-DA (Dual link + USB)".
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DigitalVisualInterface
    For the life of me, I can't find an Apple (or other) adapter with the 10-pin connector to attach to the iMac?
    many thanks,
    b myers

    If it's the old, plastic cased, 23" display, it may use ADC (Apple Display Connector).
    <http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/09/AppleDisplayConnector.jpg>
    In that case, you will need a DVI to ADC adapter

  • Is it possible to use old Apple Flat Panel Display (62 watt power adapter) with MacBookPro 13" Mid-2012 running 10.8.4? Tried mini display to VGA cable

    Is it possible to use old Apple Flat Panel Display (62 watt power adapter) with a MacBookPro 13" Mid-2012 laptop?  Would like to use larger screen when working at home.  I have a mini display port to VGA cable and have tried to hook up the old display but it seems not to work.  When I try to activate the screen on the old display-- a window comes up in the MacBookPro and asks me if I want to shut down the computer.  What little I have read it that the MacBookPro had Thunderbolt and the old display may not be compatible?  Any assistance would be appreciated.

    11.09.12 22:16:06,148 ClamXavSentry[286]: I will quarantine infected files
    This doesn't have anything to do with your problem, but it will likely cause other issues with your e-mail.
    Here's my standard recommendation concerting the use of A-V software to deal with potentially infected messages:
    Never use ClamXav (or any other A-V software) to move (quarantine) or delete e-mail. It will corrupt the mailbox index which could cause loss of other e-mail and other issues with functions such as searching. It may also leave the original e-mail on your ISP's e-mail server and will be re-downloaded to your hard drive the next time you check for new mail.
    So, if you choose to "Scan e-mail content for malware and phishing" in the General Preferences, make sure you do not elect to either Quarantine or Delete infected files.
    When possibly infected e-mail files are found:
    Right-click/Control-click on either the infection or file name in the ClamXav window.
    Select "Reveal In Finder" from the pop-up menu.
    When the window opens, double-click on the file to open the message in your e-mail client application.
    Read the message and if you agree that it is junk/spam/phishing then use the e-mail client's delete button to delete it (this is especially important when the word "Heuristics" appears in the infection name).
    If you disagree and choose to retain the message, return to ClamXav and choose "Exclude From Future Scans" from the pop-up menu.
    If this is a g-mail account and those messages continue to show up after you have deleted them in the above manner, you may need to log in to webmail using your browser, go to the "All Mail" folder, find the message(s) and use the delete button there to permanently delete them from the server.
    To fix the corrupted mailbox index(es), highlight each one that was corrupted and choose Rebuild from the appropriate menu.

  • Using Apple TV as display for MacBook

    Is there any way for me to use my Apple TV to display what I see on my macBook wirelessly to my flat screen TV? I have a 1TB Time Capsule as well if that helps.

  • VMware Fusion and Apple LED Cinema Display

    I have a 2008 MBP and a 27" Apple LED Cinema Display. My OS is 10.7.2.
    I am running Windows 7 with the latest updates in VMWare Fusion 4.1.1. I have several issues.
    1) When I go to chose my monitor it say Apple LED Cinema Display but "Generic Non-PnP Monitor." I downloaded and installed the boot camp drivers as I understood those contained the drivers for the monitor, but that didn't seem to help. Do I need to have the Boot Camp drivers?
    2) When I try to access the Boot Camp Control panel in Windows 7 in Fusion I get "An error occured while tyring to access the startup disk settings. You may not have privileges to change the startup disk." My guess is this is because the Boot Camp drivers are only needed if you actualy run Boot Camp.
    3) In Windows I cannot choose the native resolution of the Apple display (2560 x 1440).
    4) The resolution ia 1277 x 1234. That is weird.
    5) If I minimze the Fusion window and then immediately open it, it looks fine. But if I wait for awhile and open it, the window will be black until I click inside of it.
    Something is wrong, Any help in fixing this would be greatly appreciated.
    Bryan

    you have to separate out what is Fusion and what is Windows native.
    Even doing updates to Windows sometimes should not or cannot be done properly in VM.
    And there is no way to change the default boot drive - a VM doesn't have access and that is the host OS's job, not the guest's.
    Install the latest AMD driver for mobility - and dont' use the "auto detect" - that is not going to work on Apple hardware.
    You dont' run Boot Camp. But the Apple drivers and serives needed for hardware support, yes, they aren't running or loaded.

  • Apple 16" Color Display with 15" Aluminium Powerbook?

    I have pulled my old Mac 16" Color Display out of the shed, only to discover that my 15" powerbook Al running 10.4.6, once connected via DVI-VGA and VGA-Apple VGA, won't show the necessary 832 x 624 resolution option, so I can't use it.
    When I connect my older Pismo powerbook running under 10.3 via VGA-Apple VGA, it does show the necessary resolution!
    Is this a a symptom of 10.4, the DVI adaptor or the video card? Can I copy some driver or something from 10.3 to 10.4 to add support for 832 x 624?
    Brendan

    I think you are trying to use equipment that is just too far behind your modern PowerBook. The Apple 16 inch display was sold 1991 to 1994.
    The computer-end of its cable provides a code at startup that a Mac with a similar connector would use to determine what display is attached, and what resolutions are appropriate. Perhaps the adapters you are using cannot manage to pass that information through in a coherent way.
    More modern displays with a VGA (three-row) connector use a DDC side-channel to negotiate their capabilities with the computer system.
    On the other hand, perhaps the PowerBook simply cannot do that resolution. If the 16 inch display were a multi-Sync display, there might be another resolution you could use.

  • Older Apple HD Cinema Display is detected but no picture

    Forgive me, as I know this is an often-asked question but I have searched and can't find a response that fixes the issue.
    Yet.
    So I have a Mac Pro (circa 2008) that works fine. The Apple Cinema Display is even older from about 2004 (I think).
    Everything was working fine and I was video editing and Photopshopping to my hearts content.
    I had noticed that recently the display would not come back from sleep without rebooting the computer.
    So that might have been an early clue.
    Then this morning I came home from taking the kids to school and the Mac Pro fan was running loud and no image on screen.
    I rebooted the computer. This time the monitor displayed black and white vertical lines.
    "Oh joy," thought I.
    I rebooted again.
    This time nothing but the heart of darkness.
    Nothing.
    I reseated the video card (as that has been a culprit in the past) and rebooted. Still no image. Did all the PRAM, unplugging the computer, waiting a minute plugging back in, plus all the other keyboard tricks one reads about. Still no joy.
    I then tried the monitor on my MacBook Pro to see if it was a computer issue or monitor issue. No image from the MacBook Pro either.
    The Macbook Pro did detect the display though and showed it along side theMacbook Pro screen is the Display Prefences.
    I also ran the MacBook Pro in Traget Mode to the laptop so i could run diagnostic checks and repairs uisng Apple Utilities and Disk Warrior. No problems were detected on the Mac Pro (tower).
    I then connected a Samsung monitor (that the kids watch Netflix on) and that worked fine on both the laptop and the Mac Pro tower.
    So I have isolated the cause to the Apple HD Cinema Display. The video card and other hardware tested out fine.
    Any thoughts on a fix or what the issue might be?. I can get by with Samsung as I am on deadline - but would rather have my trusty Apple Cinema screen back.
    Many thanks.
    And good karma to all who give it a head scratch.

    Yeah I use my screen saver more often now and yes it's the white windows and desktop icons that ghost the most not horrible and my warrant is a few years past. The genius is wrong to accuse you that's just plain silly. The first apple 30 inch I bought had green lines and after a few trips to the store they sent it off to be repaired but in the end I think I got a different monitor back. Three and a half years later this started to happen. It's like short term burn and it's pretty subtle. I'm an audio guy so if I were a graphics person and this was my main rig I would be more upset. I just hope it does not continue to get worse. I have an older 22 inch with the clear plastic and it does not have the issue. It only starts to do it after it's been n for few hours.
    Good to know I'm not the only one, thanks for posting.

  • Will the Apple 30 Inch display work with my MacBook pro? Confused!!

    Hi all,
    thinking of getting a used Apple 30 inch display to go with my MBP, but not sure if it will work at the correct resolution. Ive read you need a Duel Link DVI cable, but I have Thunderbolt not mini-display port. My MBP is early 2011 (think), so I am really confused. The 27 Incher with thunderbolt would be good too, but they are too expensive for me.
    Graphics card is AMD Radeon HD 6490M, 16mb RAM. 10.6.8.
    I would really appriciate any advice !
    Thank you all in advance,
    Bish.

    I am replying to my own post here, but i have made excellent progress and wanted to let any other viewers in the same boat, know the solution.
    Basically, the Duel Link DVI cable from Apple (£70 / $99) is the bad boy that works. My confusion was Thunderbolt, but apparently Thunderbolt IS ALSO a DVI port ! So, buy the 30 incher on Ebay or off a mate, and BANZAI ! done. Glorious res of about 2560x1600pixels is awesome!
    The only downside here is that it might be too big LOL !!!!
    Good luck all
