Monitors Incompatibility List

Somebody plz tell me if there is a list of incompatible monitors with the mac mini.
I am going to buy a mac mini and simply wish to know if the monitor Samsung Syncmaster 773s will be compatible with it.
Has anybody had any problems with this particular monitor with the mac mini core solo?

Hello,
In all my years of using Macintosh computers, I have never found a PC monitor that would not work with them. In all honesty, even counting my old pre-G3 systems, I have only ever owned one Apple branded Mac Monitor.
I have always used PC-type VGA monitors (with the appropriate adapter cable) with my Macs.
And, I am doing just that with my current Mac Mini. I'm using the ultimate in cheap monitors with my current Mac Mini. It's the cheapest LCD panel that was available a couple of years ago, and it works just fine with my Mini.
So, from my experience, incompatible monitors are very rare.
But, if you want to insure that your monitor will work fine before you purchase the computer, then you might consider taking your monitor to the local dealer and request them to let you connect it to a display model. That should put your mind at ease, and they will likely not have any trouble permitting this. They should be quite willing if it means getting a sale.
I hope this helps.
Let us know if you have other questions.

Magic Trackpad incompatibility list, anyone?

Hi, I just got a magic trackpad. It works as a slow, sluggish mouse with one finger support. So obviously something is wrong. All updates are in, and stuff.
I've read COUNTLESS of posts with people having trouble with this. Some get it to work, some don't.
Could you please help me post a complete uncomatibility list with interfering software? The only one people talking about here is USB overdrive. But I don't have it, so it must be something else.
thanks
Andreas

Sorry.
It was USB Overdrive after all. An old kernel extension or something that wasn't gone after the uninstall.
USBOverdrive.kext
I'll leave it unsolved for a couple of days. So if anyone has had trouble with other software conflicting with the magic trackpad, please add it to the list, starting with USB Overdrive.

Activity Monitor - Red Listing

Hello,
I was wondering how my MBP was running, so I took a look at the activity monitor. As many of you - I freak out if I see anything in "RED".
I have one red line on the activity monitor which says: UserEventAgent (not responding). It is taking about 2.21 MB's in real memory.
WHAT THE HECK IS THAT? How do I get rid of it ASAP?
Thanks in advance...

Serviço de Lista e Download

Bom dia!
Eu dei uma olhada no programa /XNFE/COLLECT_DOCUMENTS, que dispara o serviço de lista de notas para download, e verifiquei que no final da função /XNFE/NFELIST_COLLECT_NFE, caso a nota esteja autorizada e não tenha nenhum evento de manifestação, é disparado um evento automático de conhecimento da operação, e a nota é colocada disponível para download do XML no monitor de lista e download.
Esse disparo de conhecimento é feito pela função /XNFE/NFELIST_TRIGGER_OPAC.
O fiscal me questionou se para a SEFAZ, não haveria nenhum problema caso eles fossem Desconhecer a Operação posteriormente. O serviço permiti, porém eles ficaram preocupados em uma fiscalização por parte da Sefaz sobre a nota devido à mesma ter um evento de conhecimento, e posteriormente um desconhecimento.
Vocês sabem se há algum problema nisso? Disparar um Desconhecimento da Operação de uma nota com evento de Conhecimento da Operação.
Att,
Matheus Goulart

No portal da NF-e diz...
É possível reconsiderar o registro de um destes eventos?
O destinatário poderá enviar uma única mensagem de Confirmação da Operação, Desconhecimento da Operação ou Operação não Realizada, valendo apenas a última mensagem registrada. Exemplo: o destinatário pode desconhecer uma operação que havia confirmado inicialmente ou confirmar uma operação que havia desconhecido inicialmente.
O evento de "Ciência da Emissão" não configura a manifestação final do destinatário, portanto não cabe o registro deste evento após a manifestação final do destinatário

Hi,
Q. Is it possible to setup the solution manager -above mentioned tasks without Ides system ?
A. Yes.
Check with links for
1.Early watch alert
This process helps you to identify potential problems early, avoid bottlenecks, and monitor the performance of your ABAP and JAVA systems and your most important business processes, regularly, automatically and effectively. The data collection infrastructure comprises the ABAP Service Data Control Center and the JAVA function module Data Provider. The SAP EarlyWatch Alert in the SAP Solution Manager is a service provided by SAP.
To be able to use it, you have:
maintained the non-ABAP systems correctly in the system landscape maintenance (transaction SMSY)
RFC u2013 Connections between: and an RFC u2013 Connections established.
your satellite systems and the SAP Solution Manager system
SAP Solution Manager and the SAP Service Marketplace
Solution Manager system and Solution Manager Diagnostics
Cf: Solution Manager IMG (transaction SPRO).
checked the availability of the tools required for the SAP Service sessions (add-on ST-A/PI), with the report RTCCTOOL.
activated Alert Monitoring and set-up the Automatic Session Manager (ASM) in the Service Data Control Center (SDCCN) of your satellite systems, for all SAP satellite systems and the central SAP Solution Manager of your solution
set-up your systems in a solution landscape in the SAP Solution Manager
configured Solution Manager Diagnostics
2.System Monitoring
The system monitoring in the SAP Solution Manager is, as described above, like a system-wide central CCMS. It can also contain the central CCMS (CEN) of satellite systems. These CENs can then monitor other components.
The graphical display in the SAP Solution Manager gives you access to the alerts of all systems in a solution. You can go to the local or central CCMS of the satellite systems.
The system proposes the most important alerts in the CCMS monitor collection, according to SAP experience, and their alert thresholds, for each system in the solution, in the system monitoring Session. You can activate or deactivate these alerts. The connection between the local CCMS and the SAP Solution Manager allows you to maintain the alert thresholds directly in the SAP Solution Manager, overwriting the values in the local CCMS.
3.Central System Administration
You activate the customizing for business processes in your solution, in the Business Process MONITORING session in the SAP Solution Manager. A monitoring tree element (MTE), or a monitor collection, u201EBPMu201C of several monitoring objects, is created in the local or central (CEN) CCMS of the satellite system.
The data is collected for the monitoring types of the business process monitoring in contrast to system monitoring, as follows:
● The system collects performance (dialog transactions), posting cancellations (V1 and V2) and u201EOther CCMSu201C and interface data, in the local CCMS of the satellite systems.
● The system collects background processing, application list, application monitors, delivery lists, and document size data, in the central SAP Solution Manager CCMS.
The SAP Solution Manager system copies the data from the local CCMS.
The graphical display in the SAP Solution Manager simplifies access to the alerts for the business processes, business process steps or the interfaces between the systems in a solution. You can go to the local CCMS of the satellite systems.
The connection between the local CCMS and the SAP Solution Manager allows you to maintain the alert thresholds directly in the SAP Solution Manager. These overwrite the values in the local CCMS.
4.Business Process Monitoring
The system and business process monitoring (including interface monitoring) in the SAP Solution Manager, both use the Computing Center Management System (CCMS) (transaction RZ20) architecture. This means that system alerts which occur in the local CCMS, are passed to the SAP Solution Manager via RFC connections between the SAP Solution Manager and the satellites. The system shows these alerts in a graphic or in Sessions. You can also handle the alerts centrally, without having to go to the local CCMS of the satellite systems.
You can see the alerts from several systems in a solution landscape in the SAP Solution Manager, in a graphical overview, in contrast to the local CCMS of the SAP Solution Manager satellite systems. This is the view of a central CCMS (CEN). You can also monitor non-SAP systems in a central CCMS (CEN) of a satellite system

DVI compatibility between a new mini and this LG monitor

Hello...
Can anyone help me out? I'm new to the whole DVI thing, as this is my first new mac in a few years, I've only used VGA before. I'm going to be getting a refurbished mini, so it will be either early or late 2009, as soon as the right one comes up for sale on the store. I've ordered this monitor, link below, as it was on sale to use with it. I'm concerned about the DVI-I vs DVI-D thing, if there is any difference. The monitor just lists DVI as a connection option. I just want to be sure this monitor will work fine with my mini, as I only have 14 days to return the monitor, and it might be more than that before I get the mini. I'm guessing the monitor only comes with a VGA cable, so I would have to get a DVI-D to DVI-D male to male cable as well right? That cable seems hard to find on places like best buy online. Any information would be helpful!
Here is the monitor:

Well, it looks like the 14 days have elapsed and you didn't get an answer. It can be difficult to get such specific advice as you were looking for in a timely manner, e.g. this exact mini with this exact display. The odds that someone with that exact kit reads this forum is not as high as you might think, especially if they aren't having any trouble, which would be a good sign in the context of your questions. But generally speaking, it should work.

Monitor Compatibility Question

I plan on purchasing a Mac Pro with the Radeon X1900 XT card in the near future. I have been shopping around for a good monitor, and the Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP (found here: http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku= 320-4335) caught my eye. However, at the bottom of the tech specs, it lists only PC under "Compatibility." I know of other people who have used Dell monitors for their Macs, and this monitor does have DVI, so I don't see why it would not be compatible with the Mac Pro. Does anyone know definitively whether or not this monitor would work?

Hello,
You should be just fine. The majority of monitors are listed as compatible with PC's only. The simple reason is that the manufacturers don't care to test them with Macs and have all their resources devoted to supporting what they know.
If they mentioned that it would work with a Mac, then they would be stuck trying to answer your questions on the phone if you needed help. Since they don't use Macs, and don't maintain a staff of Mac trained people, it is easier to just omit official support. That way they can just tell you that they don't support Macs and hang-up the phone.
I've been using PC monitors with my Macs since before Apple even supported PC monitors at all (you used to have to buy monitors with Apple specific cables). I would just use an adapter to convert the PC connector to connect to the Mac video port.
In all my years, I've never found a PC monitor that would not work with my Mac. And, that still holds true today. I've used several low-end monitors with my current machines, and all work fine.
I've even got a bargain basement DVI monitor connected right-now, and it works perfectly.
Basically, if you want official support and a guarantee, then buy a monitor that specifically lists Mac compatibility.
But, if you are willing to accept that their phone support will avoid helping you, then go with any brand you like.
Understand that Dell is primarily interested in selling and supporting Dell computers. They have no interest in fielding calls from Mac users because they are not going to be familiar with OS X. Naturally, they will list PC compatibility because they know Windows very well.
But, you should also understand that the only difference between an Intel-based Mac and an Windows PC, is that the Intel-based Mac can also run OS X. Otherwise, they are just different brands of computers that use pretty much the same hardware.
I hope this helps.

QuickTime and iTunes video playing fullscreen on external monitor automatic

Hello, on my Toshiba laptop with nVidia video card, I have an external monitor hooked up to the laptop. Every time I go to play video from QuickTime or iTunes, it plays the video at full screen size on the external monitor while also playing in the normal small window of QuickTime or iTunes on the main (laptop) LCD. I don't have the QuickTime Pro key installed on this machine, nor have I somehow selected to play videos at full screen. It does this whether I want to do it or not, which is quite annoying as the full screen version is usually flickering to boot.
Help please. I've looked in the QuickTime Control Panel and don't see anything that would cause this problem, nor in iTunes.
Cheers, Andrew.

A couple of things you might want to try. Open the QT Player settings, not to be confused with the QT Control panel. There should be settings in there for monitors and dual monitors I believe.
For the flickering, open the Display control panel>Settings>Advanced>Monitor. Listed under Monitor settings-Screen refresh rate: try changing the setting to 85 Hertz.

Low Resolution on External Monitor after upgrade to Snow Leopard

I recently had my Macbook Pro 13in upgraded to run OS X 10.6.3. Subsequently I have been unable to use my external BenQ G2420HD external monitor at it's full resolution. I'm using a MiniDisplayPort to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor. I have the latest firmware for the adaptor.
With OS X 10.5 on the 13in it was OK. Also with my old Macbook Pro 15 in (also 10.5 and a VGA adaptor). These allow the full operating resolution of 1920x1080.
Now the maximum I can get is 1360 x 768.
Be grateful for any help.
Paul

I'm a bit concerned it's been 2 days and I have not received any responses to this question! Does anyone from Apple monitor this list and can give some indication of how to solve the problem?
Best

Connecting MacBook Pro to external monitor

I want to connect my late 2011 MacBook Pro (Thunderbolt port) running OS X Ver 10.9.1 to an external monitor. Am considering the HP ZR2740W 27 in LED IPS monitor. Any issues or experience in community to do this? Will I need a special cable? Any other monitors to consider/recommend?

Note that the Thunderbolt port functions as a Mini DisplayPort. This is important because you probably won't find any non-Apple monitors that list a Thunderbolt port, but many now list a Mini DisplayPort. On those monitors all you need is a Mini DisplayPort cable.
If you choose the Nixeus display, the one I'm looking at lists DisplayPort, Dual-Link DVI, HDMI, and VGA. That means you won't be able to use a straight Mini DisplayPort cable with it and your Mac. You'll need a cable with Mini DisplayPort at one end, and a plug on the other end that matches one of the ports on the display. For best performance and highest resolution support, you should use a Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable.
Also, although some monitors may use "the same panel" as the Apple displays, keep in mind that Apple tends to take only the cream of the crop of that run of IPS panels, which is why they charge more. Other panels from the same lot, which have been rejected by Apple, end up in the budget IPS displays like the ones from Monoprice. These are still great panels, near the top of the lot, but just not quite good enough for Apple. They may be slightly off in terms of brightness uniformity or dead pixels, but if you're not like a pro photographer or something the budget monitor should be more than good enough.

New Mac Mini, Not so new LCD HDTV Monitor, no mac support

I have been attempting to set up a Mac Mini with a Maxent LCD 26" HD TV I can't get either the RGB or DVI-D input to accept signal. I have purchased DisplayConfigX and SwitchResX_X. Maybe they could work, but I can't get a signal to stay on long enough to change the settings as listed in other posts. I have tried booting in safe mode as DisplayConfigX instructions suggest. But still only am able to see the screen until gear starts spinning with apple logo, resolution changes spontaneously to one that I suppose is unsupported and I get the unsupported display and a beautiful blank blue screen. I tried manually inputting the resolutions the monitor manual lists, while connected with an lcd pc monitor. But I can't get the Maxent LCD TV monitor to stay on. It appears that if I could get the Mac Mini to send this resolution signal to the Maxent I would be able to delete any unneeded settings and that would be it.
Perhaps Tom Fussy can help me.I have been at this for over two weeks now. So I have become super frustrated. Of course Maxentusa.com offers no Mac support. But state that if Mac mini is supposed to work with PC that it should work with my Mac Mini. My LCD TV is about 6 months old I could still return it for maybe a Sharp Aquos, if that $300 dollar more TV would work. I am happy with the Maxent otherwise. Keeping it, and having it work with Mac Mini Is my choice. Of course Apple offers no support for the Maxent monitor and directed me here. This is my first discussion group post. School me if I have not followed the rules completely.

I was able to get the settings for Maxent using Gregory's software to force 640x480. Here are my settings

Process scheduler server list is not populating in SERVER LIST page.

Need urgent help.
We have PeopleSoft Campus Solution 8.52,9.0 application. We had two Process Scheduler server one in Linux and one in NT. There was one issue that all the jobs which processed were getting into success and reports were also posted,however it was not updating the database with data. In order to solve it I created a new Process Scheduler server at onther NT machine. This time when I navigated to Process Monitor --> Server List pages it has no data there. I ran COBOL job but it went to successful and report posetd but nothing was updated into the database.
Please help me out of this situation.
Thanks
Vikrant

Thanks a lot RCC for your response.
There is actually three issues
1)Process Monitor Server List page has no data.
2)As I go to run a process in the system process request I see that the Server Name,Reccurence,Type and Format are not workin or they are disabled.
3)Cobol jobs which I am running through PSNT is not updating database,however the Process is getting successful and reports are having posted status,but when I go to see Reports it is not having any output file its blank.I tried to check the reports at webserver,there were also no reports were published,However it works properly for all other Process.
For the first problem it has got resolved the solution is in this "Process Monitor Server List Not Populating With Data (Doc ID 615323.1)"( for those who face this problem in future :)).
For your query RCC, I have named same name of PSNT which was earlier in the different machine.
Please help
Thanks
Vikrant.

Batch Monitor troubles - no progress

I'd like to export a project from final cut pro (6.0.4) with compressor (3.0.4), as I did about 50 times before. Compressor opens, I choose my settings and click "send". Batch Monitor opens and that's it. No progress in Batch Monitor, no encoding, no failure code, nothing.
In the information-box I find:
pid="261" what="service-request" req-id="06B72FBC-BBB5-4F63-B985-6C4CA034BFF2:1" msg="Error: unrecognized request."></mrk>
What's wrong? If possible I'd like to avoid to reinstall compressor.
I already deleted the prefs for compressor and batch Monitor, I repaired disk permissions and restarted.
Exporting the movie with quicktime works fine, exporting audio only works fine, too.
What's wrong with Batch Monitor? Any idea someone?
Thx, Wolfgang

Sounds like Qmaster has missing assets.
Qmaster is what controls batch monitors, batch lists.
You will need to reinstall Qmaster again.

Compatible list for VGA connection

Since the list theMagius is collecting only deals with DVI compatible monitors I was wondering if anyone is interested in a similar list, but for people with VGA monitors?
if so, I volunteer to make a simple PHP page where people can fill out their monitor brand and model, along with comments and which mini model it was tried on.
what do you guys think?

I already made a thread asking about VGA monitor compatibility list...
