I want to view the screen of my dslr camera in live view on my macbook pro via the hdmi port, is this possible?

I would like to view the output from my DSLR on the screen of my macbook using the hdmi port.  I know I can connect to a tv to send images "out" from my macbook, but is it possible ti send images in?? I operate my camera by remote control, and would really live a live view if possible.
Thank

Nope - you can only output video from your MBP - there's not a port for input.

  • A small, black dot (hazy and transparent) appears on the screen when my 4s camera is in use. It's not on the lens because I've wiped it clean.  The dot moves when the camera moves.  It was working just fine until today.

    A small, hazy and transparent dot appears on the screen when my 4s camera is in use.  I know it's not on the lens because I've wiped it clean.  The dot moves when the camera moves.  It just started today. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    I have the same exact thing happening. Not a lot of people have this problem. So I'm just going to go to the apple store to see if they can help.

  • Can I use the screen of my iMac G5 by linking it to my MacBook Pro?

    Hi.
    I've seen a lot of producers studio pics, using 2 monitors, it seems to be they've connected there MacBooks up to a 24" + TV/computer screen,
    I would like to know how to do this, what cables i need etc. Also, I havent got a spare monitor anywhere, but i have a iMac G5 (power PC) in my studio, could i possibly link my macbook up with my G5, so i can work on my MBP and use the screen of the G5 mac?
    Thanks!

    What cable you need depends on which ports the monitor and computer have. If you want to use a monitor built into a computer, the cable required is an Ethernet one unless otherwise noted; this also requires setting up Virtual Network Computing.

  • My time capsule all of a sudden disconnected from the wireless system and can no longer be fund by my MacBook Pro. The little lamp on the the capsules has turned off, but it still makes a noice inside,

    My Time capsule did a backup yesterday in the morning without any problem. All of a sudden, it disconnected from the wireles system last night and the little indicator lamp turned off. It still makes a noice, as if a disc was turning inside. The Time Capsule was bought last year in June. Any suggestiom what to do? What happens if I press the little buttom (reset?), will I loose af my backup?

    Do a reset.. power off the TC..
    Hold in reset and power on.. keep holding in reset until it flashes rapidly.. if it turns on at all.
    If you bought it in June.. take it back today.. it is broken.. at a guess.
    Some Gen4 are failing this way.. get Apple to replace it.. even if it is a few days out of warranty it won't be much.

  • How do I get Elements to occupy full screen on my macbook pro? - the docking station remains visible and I don't want to have the dock in hide mode?

    How do I get Elements to occupy full screen on my macbook pro? - the docking station remains visible and I don't want to have the dock in hide mode?

    Unfortunately, there is no answer to this problem via this link. It may be that this is simply how the software actually works. It is a design fault in Adobe Photoshop Elements. It is possible to temporarily hide the dock within 'system preferences'. Oh well. Someone may know better.... I hope!

  • I dropped my macbook pro on the floor and I wanted to see how much it would cost to get a bent corner on the lid to get fixed.

    I recently dropped my macbook pro from the couch and it fell on the floor that was about a foot down. Nothing really major happened except for that the same area where the screen is, on the exterior of that there is a slightly bent corner. I really wanted my macbook pro to look in good condition and I wanted to know if there is any way I can repair this or do I have to replace the whole lid. I would also like to know how much it would cost. Please Help!

    Apple Genius Bar will know better, even if you did show us a picture.  We are just users like you.
    I would start keeping very regular backups regardless.

  • While updating my MacBook Pro to the newest software, it froze with a grayish screen with a Apple logo and a frozen pinwheel right below it. What can I do to finish updating or to fix this problem?

    We can't help you if you don't even know what you are installing.  Never install anything if you do not know what it is.  Installings through Software Update always have explanations which you should be reading to see if you actually need and/or want them.
    That being said, it appears you attempted to upgrade to Mavarick.  Although I am not positive. 
    Sorry, I am going to back out of this because I nor you know what it was you installed.  Hopefully, someone else will chime in here. 
    GOOD LUCK! 

  • Recording the screen with a video camera

    Can someone help me be able to record everything on my screen to my video camera? Can I use a firewire to do so? Is there a specific application i require? What I DON'T want to do is record my screen straight to the computer (this will be processor/space intensive) plus I already know how to do that? Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Forums!
    I'm a little confused. You want to record your screen to your video camera? Point the camera at the screen and press record on the camcorder. Viola.
    I suspect what you want to do is not that simple, but that's the answer to the question you asked
    IF you have a recording device with a _video in_ (which is something that camcorders typically don't have!! - other than the lens, I mean...), you'd need to convert the video out - which is the DVI port.
    So, if it were me, I'd use my DVI-to-video adapter, connect the DVI output to my DVR (the one on my TV), set the DVR to that input, and record that way.
    Hope this helps...

  • I have connected my MacBook pro with the mini hdmi connecter. The background screen is the only thing that shows up on the tv.

    HiI need help connecting the MacBook pro to the HDTV. I have the attachment and have it connected but I want to play videos or video from the Internet and all I can see is the background screen of the Mac. Hope the solution is simple :)

    If you can see the background on your second monitor, the solution is, ...
    .. your Mac and the external display are working correctly!
    You have created an Extended Desktop. The up-down-left-right arrangement is done in the Arrange pane in
    System Preferences > Displays > Arrange
    The second screen is added to one edge of the first screen. The mouse moves freely off the edge of one screen and onto the other screen.  You can drag and drop files or windows from one screen to the other.

  • I dropped my macbook pro and the screen is broken can i still use it with an external monitor? Or can I or how do I transfer hard drive files to my mac mini?

    I dropped my 17" macbook pro and the screen is broken. Can I still use it with an external monitor? When I plugged it into a monitor I had used it with before, I'm not able to see anything on the macbook screen to control it. It came on but I just got the blue screen with nothing else after typing in my password. (Didn't see the password form just assumed it was there somewhere and it did go from space to blue screen but no desktop icons, files, dock strip at top or anything else, just blank blue screen) so I can't access the system preferences.
    Or can I / or how do I, transfer hard drive files to my mac mini? If not salvageable as is can I pull out the hard drive and make it an external harddrive? In otherwords is anything salvageable? It seems it's coming on I just can't access anything. BTW I was told it would cost aprox $1000 to replace the screen! I paid almost $4000 for this thing and it was running great - makes me sick to lose it!

    I'd like to promise you that everything will be fine if you just get the monitor going - but it's hard to know what the hardware damage might be. It might be the monitor, or the damage might be greater.
    Your best solution would be visit your local Apple Store and let them know what your situation is. They have access to diagnostics you don't, and they might be able to the best way to save your data and keep you computing. It's still not covered, but they can tell you what your current options are.
    Um, you might consider investing in a backup drive.
    And there other repair options, too. Powerbook Medic http://www.powerbookmedic.com/xcart1/pages.php?pageid=67 offers reliable repairs, and quotes prices well under Apple's.

    You could follow the instructions in the support document that you linked from. There is a section regarding the passcode and the inability to use it or enter it. However, you may encounter more issues since you cannot use the screen.

    Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, when you reach step 5, insert its original disk, restart with the C key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, and install a fresh OS.
