  • Using the mini displayport to HDMI on W530

    I have read thru the similar threads regarding using the mini displayport on the W530 and seem to get some conflicting info.  
    I bought an mini display port to HDMI adapter and am trying to connect it to my Samsung monitor and it does not work, no signal is detected in either extend or duplicate mode.
    What BIOS settings do I need to set (mine are currently at the default) and what drivers if any do I need to update to make this work?
    When using the vga adapter port with the same monitor it works with no additional changes.
    Solved!

    One more thing...
    It is recommended to use a single straight-through cable with the proper connector at each end (i.e. miniDP->HDMI), rather than use a 2-part arrangement with a short miniDP->HDMI adapter, along with a normal HDMI-to-HDMI cable.  Sometimes the adapter used is the source of the problem, and the externally HDMI-connected monitor is just not seen correctly at the right time for the HDMI handshake that is required.  Hence the symptom.
    I'd at least try a plain straight miniDP->HDMI cable, instead of using an adapter+cable.  It's only a few dollars.

  • How do I use a mini display to hdmi adapter to view my laptop on my tv?

    I bought a mini to hdmi adapter and I have an hdmi cable plugged into the TV but I get no picture and there is no other diplay detected by the computer.

    Is your TV set to HDMI input?  Also, many TVs have more than one HDMI input and you must tell the TV to use the one you are plugged into.

  • My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. It was working fine now I cant get it to output to the Tv. Any ideas?

    My Macbook pro no longer outputs to my vizio led tv. It was working fine now I cant get any picture. It just says no signal. It is not the hdmi or the adapter because it works fine with my other tv. Any ideas on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Please be as specific as possible. Thanks. BTW--I am using the mini dvi to hdmi adapter in case that was unclear.

    Since you say that the same connectors work on your other TV is suggests that the fault is not in the connectors but your Vizio TV.  I would check the settings on the Vizio TV.  Verify that is is set to receive HDMI input.  Perhaps you or some one else has inadvertently changed them.  Pressing the wrong buttons on a remote control device can do that.  (I am assuming no changes were made in SYSTEM PREFERENCES>DISPLAYS)

    This article may provide some information about your Mini DisplayPort to AVI adapter.  Have you tried to connect a different VGA monitor to your Macbook to see if you get the same results?

    18. What is the maximum resolution available for use with the Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter?
    The resolution available with the Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter is 1920 x 1200. VGA displays that use higher refresh rates (such as 85 Hz) at resolutions of 1600 x 1200 or greater may not generate video properly until you lower the refresh rate.

    How can I detect displays?
    If the detect displays option is not available, hold down the Option key while you are in the Display pane.
    How do I select additional resolutions on my display?
    You can use the Display pane of System Preferences to specify how your display works. Not all options appear for all display models. By default the best resolution for your display will already be selected in System Preferences.
    To select a different resolution, use the Scaled option. Some additional resolutions may be available when you hold the Option button.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • HT2513 how do I get the mini calendar flap on iCal 5.0.3

    how do I get the mini calendar flap on iCal 5.0.3. Lion 10.7.5

    I finally did get the issues resolved by going here: http://blogs.adobe.com/cssdk/2011/10/fix-for-extension-signature-bug-on-mac-os-10-7.html and using that fix.
    It took several tires but I finally got it to work correctly.
    I tried using the update I downloaded from the Adobe updates page and that was what giving the error in my original post. Also, if I tried using the "get Updates" directly out of Extensions Manager, because i have several version of CS running on my workstation, it would invariably either tell me there were no updates or get the wrong version of the update. (The version I was looking to update was 5.0.289)
    The botom line being, I did finally get the Extensions Manager working correctly.
    Appreciate your response though. Thanks.

  • How can I use the speakers from my old iMac (with miniRCA? plug) on a new iMac

    How can I use the speakers (M-Audio) from my old 24" iMac on a new 27" iMac?  There is no jack on the new iMac - is there an adapter that will use the mini-RCA (?) plug from my old speakers to connect them to a new iMac?  Thanks ...

    Thanks again!
    Hmmm ... I wonder.  The input jack for external speakers quit working on my old iMac (it made lotsa static noise for a while when I moved the plug or computer, then quit working completely; I figure something inside the computer got loose or crapped out - and I'm too cheap/lazy to take it the 20 miles to the nearest shop that might fix it).  When I plug the speakers into the headphone jack on the old iMac, I get very low volume or just one channel.
    I don't have the new iMac yet, but I was hoping to use these old speakers instead of buying new ones.  I will certainly try your solution - what do I have to lose?  If they don't work, then I get new ones - or try something else.
    Many thanks for your time!

  • E71 - how can i use the gps, please help

    I have never used GPS before, i got E71 last week, it says in the manual that there is an inbuilt gps receiver in it.
    From the discussion here it looked like i still need something else to use the GPS. I saw someone
    mentioned 'Mapping', does E71 come with this program or do i need to get it from somewhere?
    Can someone tell me how i can use the GPS in the E71? Is it possible to use gps in this phone without paying additional charges?
    Many thanks.

    Its DONE, now search for any desired location press the selection button and then select Drive to or Walk to option and you will be connected to GPS.

  • HT4623 My new iPad mini won't install the update 7.0.6 until it has finished restoring from the iCloud backup.  What do I do to make the restoration complete? I have been using the mini for about a month.

    I have downloaded iOS 7.0.6 but it will not install until the ipad is finished restoring from the Icloud backup.  I've been using the mini for about a month, so why is it not completely restored?  How do I make the restore process finish?

    When and where was the iPad/charger purchased? It's covered by a 1-year warranty.
    The problem may be the USB cable.

  • How do I use the Japanese fonts in Font Book in a Pages document?

    How does one use the Japanese fonts in Font Book in a Pages document. Pages has its own fonts but I cannot get the Japanese fonts into it.

    To type japanese on a computer you change the keyboard, not the font.  Go to system prefs/keyboard/input sources and add Japanese/Kotoeri to the list, then select Hiragana in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen, then type.  The font will take care of itself.

    My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. A while ago the computer fell down and hit the cable. How can I tell if the computer is working ok. Doesn't show mirroring any more. Was working while watching a movie but when I pulled it out from the computer and put it back in the system would no longer mirrorr the screen on the TV.

    The best option is an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.  The evaluation will be for FREE!

    i'm assuming this is the new 3tb tc AC or 'tower' shape, if so, its wifi will run circles around your at&t device
    unplug the at&t box for a minute and plug it back in
    factory reset your tc - unplug it, hold down reset and keep holding while you plug it back in - only release reset when amber light flashes in 10-20s
    connect the tc to your at&t box via eth in the wan port, wait 1 minute, open airport utility look in 'other wifi devices' to setup the tc
    create a new wifi network (give it a different name than your at&t one) and put the tc in bridge mode (it may do this automatically for you, but you should double check) under the 'network' tab
    login to your at&t router and disable wifi on it
    add new clients to the new wifi network, and point your Macs to the time machine for backups
