Recently I bought a mini DVI to HDMI converter  from eBay for my iMac 21.5 Mid 2011, but only later I realised that it does not have the mini DVI port in that. How can I connect my iMac to a LG smart TV through a HDMI cable?

This is the picture of all the ports from my iMac
This is the mini DVI to HDMI converter which I bought from ebay. And I have the HDMI cable to connect it to my TV
Could anyone please suggest me a solution how I could connect my iMac to the LG smart TV? Also I need to know if this transmits the audio as well to the smart TV?
Suggestions are welcomed. I really appreciate and thank you for your time

I would suggest looking into a Thunderbolt to HDMI connector. In this case, you may be able to use the TV as an external monitor. For this option, please confirm through additional research. I have not tested it personally.
You can also use an Apple TV, which connects with HDMI. In this case, you can use Airplay Mirroring. Not all Macs support Airplay Mirroring, so you need to check first. I have a Mid-2011 27" iMac, and it supports Airplay Mirroring. I don't use it often because my TV is in another room, but I just tried it and it worked. It had to change the screen resolution to work well, so I don't know if I would want to use it as my day to day monitor. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5404

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t run Mountain Lion. There's a Mountain Lion Support Community where everybody has Mountain Lion. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/os_x_mountain_lion

  • HT201303 I tried to update my security questions this morning but got timed out.  Ive just tried to get into my account but the system does not recognise the answers to my question.  How can I rectify this problem please

    I was trying to update my Security Questions this morning but got 'Timed Out' I've just tried again to get into my security settings but the system does not recognise the information I'm putting in. Can anyone tell me how I can correct this problem.  I can still log-in.
    Best wishes

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You might try to see if you can change your security questions. Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account > Password and Security.
    I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.
    If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)

  • HT4623 my phone does not have the software update option on it, how do I update my phone without this?

    My phone is saying that I need the iOS 4.3 update but I do not have the software udate option available to me on my phone.  How do I still update my phone?

    If you have an iPhone 3G then iOS 4.2.1 is as high as it goes...

  • My Macbook does not recognize that it does not have the most recent software update.

    Does anyone have an idea of how to fix this?

    Are you on 10.4.11 as shown in your signature?
    What recent software update are you referring to? If it's Snow Leopard (10.6), that is not an update - you have to buy it (widely available for $29 or less).

  • The small symbols for bookmarks in the list does not show the right web page symbol? How can I get this right?

    I have a lot of short cuts to web pages in the list just under the web address. The symbol showing should be that of the web page but for some of the links the symbol shows the wrong symbol. For example it could be that CNN has the symbol of BBC (I don't have this exact problem but just as an example).

  • AIR for mobile does not support the full range of icons. How can we include them?

    The range of icon sizes suppoted by the <icons> attribute of the Main-app.xml seems quite limited.
    For example, we are getting ready to launch our app in the Amazon app store, which has a wide range of different icon sizes for their devices:
    https://developer.amazon.com/sdk/fire/cx-guidelines.html#IconSizes
    But the majority of them fail when you try to include them in a build:
    42x42, 62x62, 75x75, 78x78, 80x80, 90x90, 118x118, 121x121, 125x125, 134x134, 155x155, 159x159, 188x188, 210x210, 252x252, 284x284, 322x322, 365x365, 425x425, 675x675
    Is there a way to add them to the .apk package that will be accesible to the application?

    Hi,
    If you feel that the number of icon sizes available are limiting you, please log a feature request for supporting more icon sizes on https://bugbase.adobe.com.

  • My touch does not have the apple contacts app on it where can i find it to download it. it was originally on the touch i believe

    Where can I FIND THE SAME CONTACT APP THAT IS ON MY LION MAC SOFTWARE AND USE IT ON MY 4TH GEN ITOUCH . I CAN NOT SEEM TO FIND THE APP TO DOLOAD IT. THX

    - If you are talking about the Contacts app that came with the iPod, that can't be deleted or hidden or redownloaded..
    - Have yu sed the Spotlight search on the iPod to try to find it?  I suspect it is on the iPod and you just can't find it.
    - You can go to Settings>General>Reet>Reset Screen Layout to help find it.
    - You can also try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • HT5457 my iphone 4 has not been updated since purchase almost a year ago.it does not have the software update option in settings. how do i get to update? settings. How do I update it

    My iphone 4 has not been updated since I purchased it a year ago. When I go to settings to click software update as per instructions, the software update is not listed. How & where do I go  to update my phone?
    Thanks

    You'll have to use iTunes on your computer to get your iPhone to the latest version of iOS. From there you'll be able to update directly from the iPhone for future releases.

  • HT4623 I have an Iphone 3 that does not have the software updates how can I update it?

    I have an IPhone 3 that does not have the software updates in my settings how can I update it cause I can not download any apps or games?

    The 3G can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1, but if the phone isn't there yet, see below.
    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • Can't activate - activation does not have the required number of digits

    I have an old paid version of CS that I have been using for years. I recently had my hard drive repaired and they managed to deactivate my CS. When I try and do the phone activation, after I enter the activation code it says "The number you entered does not have the required number of digits". I am reading it right off the screen in front of me. The only other info is activation type = repair. What are my options? I paid a lot for this and I would like to keep using it. Thanks for any help.

    I am having the exact same problem. I have moved my Adobe CS3 to a new computer. Even though I am entering the activation code correctly as displayed on my screen, I still get the message "The number you entered does not have the required number of digits". You can then select to speak to someone, but then you receive a recording that Adobe is no longer handling activation problems via phone, goodbye, and I am disconnected.
    How can I re-activate my CS3 product? I have a legitimate purchase and a legitimate license key. Thank you.

    Connect it to your syncing PC and update using iTunes on the PC. The OTA (over the air & under Settings>General>Software Update) update was introduced with iOS 5.

  • How can I connect my iMac to a TV for playback of videos? My TV does not have HDMI.

    How can I connect my iMac to a TV for playback of videos? My TV does not have HDMI.

    You need to find out what video out you have on your iMac, and what kind of video inputs there are on your TV.
    It will help to know exactly what model iMac and exactly what make/model TV you have.
    Depending on the exact model iMac you have, it may have miniVGA, miniDVI, miniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt output.  Your TV may have composite, S-video, component, DVI, VGA or HDMI inputs.  Once you confirm what kind of ports your iMac and TV have, then we can probably suggest the correct cable or adapter so you can connect them to each other.
