Which cable should I use for a MacBook to external VGA monitor

Hello everyone
Having just come back to Apple, last having used a Apple 2E way back in the 70's, I've got to get used to non-IBM compatible stuff!
Please advise which cable is needed to hook up to a standard IBM compatible VGA screen/cable.
Also, will the same cable do for an overhead projector with a VGA input port.
Thank you

Hi and welcome to Discussions and welcome back to the Apple world,
this are the tech specs of your MacBook http://support.apple.com/kb/SP579 so you need a MiniDisplayPort to VGA adapter like this one http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MTA4MzU1NDg for connecting your IBm display and your projector.

  • Which listener should be used for JTextArea

    Hi,
    I need to add a listener for JTextArea particualy when
    the text in the jtextarea is changed. I don't think
    mouse listener is enough, since the user can use tab to
    get to the jtextarea and edit the text. In this case,
    which listener should I use. Sample code would be
    helpful.
    In addition, I have a problem with the jtextarea that
    when user uses tab to go to different gui components,
    such as jtextfield, jcombobox, jtextarea, jlist, etc, the
    tab stays in the jtextarea and keeps appending to it. It does
    not go to next component, such as jlist. How can I make it
    work?
    Thanks in advance,
    Pin

    It doesn't work. Are you using 1.4 or 1.3? I am using
    1.4.
    In the 1.4 API, it says that isManagingFocus is
    "Deprecated".
    Here is what I have:
    JTextArea descrptArea = new JTextArea() {
    public boolean isManagingFocus() {
    return false;
    descrptArea.setRows(3);
    descrptArea.setLineWrap(true);
    descrptArea.addKeyListener(new KeyAdapter() {
    public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
    // DO SOMETHING
    I found the following code which says it will do it.
    However, I got the exeception:
    java.lang.ClassCastException:
    n: javax.swing.KeyStroke
    at java.util.TreeMap.compare(TreeMap.java:1081)
    at java.util.TreeMap.put(TreeMap.java:459)
    at java.util.TreeSet.add(TreeSet.java:205)
    Set forwardTraversalKeys = new TreeSet();
    forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke('\t'));
    forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEven
    .VK_TAB,
    InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
    textArea.setFocusTraversalKeys
    (KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,
    forwardTraversalKeys);
    Set backwardTraversalKeys = new TreeSet();
    backwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEve
    t.VK_TAB,
    InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK));
    backwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEve
    t.VK_TAB,
    InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK |InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
    textArea.setFocusTraversalKeys(
    KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,
    backwardTraversalKeys);
    Any idea???
    PinI'm not using 1.4 but the class cast exceptions look like they come from : Set forwardTraversalKeys=new TreeSet() etc
    try : TreeSet forwardTraversalKeys=new TreeSet()
    you cant cast from a Set to a TreeSet because a TreeSet is a Set but a Set is NOT a TreeSet.
    hope this helps.

  • Which operator  should i used for loading not matched records

    HI ALL,
    I am just evluate OWB tools.
    and i met a question.
    I need to join two tables A and B with Condition A.id=B.id
    For example,
    A has 1000 records, and B has 100 records,
    what i need to do is
    (1) to get matched 100 record from B to a new table C,
    (2)to get the not matched 900 records from A to another table D.
    By the requirement like above, which operator could i use for?
    I tried to use joined but can not get the record of (2).
    Thanks for your attention.
    Regards

    Hi,Sutirtha
    Thanks for your attention.
    because joiner has only one output group.
    so what you mean is use joiner operator twice?
    One joiner userd to get the matched records,
    and the other used to get unmatched records?
    Thanks

  • HT3924 What cable should I use since my MacBook Pro only have Thunderbolt instead of Mini DisplayPort?

    Should I use a Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable? The article did not include this.

    I have to assume you are connecting your iMac to your MBP and running the MBP in target display mode.  So you would need a mini-displayport to mini-displayport cable for that.
    If it's the other way around I don't think it can be done since a TB device can only be connected to a TB source.

  • Which cable should I have for my ipod with video

    Hi I have ipod with video and bought the ipod fw power adapter gen, so I could charge my ipod away from my computer. I bought the wrong cable and sent it back and have received the wrong cable again. Can anyone help me and tell me which cable I should have, the cables I previously bought from apple are thin firewire cable 6-6 pin o.5m gen, and then ipod dock connector to usb 2.0.

    Hi the firewire cable you mention is the one that i bought originally and it does not work with ipod video, the conection to my ipod with this cable is fine but the conection to the other end of the cable does not fit the charger, I checked the link that you both mention and it actually says that it is not compatable. The charger I bought says it works with ipod video thats why I am so confused to know what cable to buy and have made to mistakes already. If you can help me Id be delighted because its driving me nuts.

  • Which ID should I use for Family Sharing?

    My family has  the same iTunes ID (is this now called an iCloud ID??) so that we were able to share music. We logged into iTunes on our computers and our iphones with all the same iTunes ID.    We all have different Apple IDs and logged into our computers and iPhones with that ID.   How do I implement Family Sharing so that we still have the OLD music and shared app??  And which email address do I send the invitation?

    Hi gottalovemymac,
    When you join a family, you'll be asked to confirm the Apple ID that you regularly use for making iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases. Purchases from this account will be shared with your family members.

  • Difference between PDS and PPM and which one should be used for SNP /ppds?

    Hi Gurus,
                 Just wanted to know what are the difference between PDS and PPM ?
    1. For what industrial products we use PDS and PPM in SNP and PPDS?
    2. which one can be refered to clients?
    Please let me know it will be really great if anyone let me know the answers
    Thanks & Regards,
    Raj

    Hi Rajkumar,
    I have given below the detailed comparative account of PDS Vs PPM. Please copy and put it in an excel sheet in different columns and then read which is easy to understand.
    PDS
    1. Production Data Structure (PDS) in APO 3.1 & Run Time Object (RTO) in 4.0 and above versions
    2. Master Data Object
    3. Useful for scenarios where the compoenent has got different validity periods
    4. Used as Master data Basis for Planning in SAP-APO
    5. Contains active Master data from iPPE (Integrated Product and Process Engineering) generated from a production version
    6. PPDS PDS & SNP PDS can be used as master data for planning
    7. Change Management, variant configuration & Phantom assemplies are supported in PDS
    8. Sub-contracting in SNP is fully integrated with R/3 is supported in PDS
    9. Direct transfer of SNP PDS from R/3 is possible
    10.Rapid Planning Matrix can be generated
    11. Not possible to maintain PDS directly in APO and can be used only in combination with R/3
    12. The transfer of data changes is simpler
    13. Not possible to create alternate SNP-PDS in std system for different mode combinations
    14. PDS can be automatically generated from two sources ie R/3 and iPPE
    PPM:-
    1. Production Process Model
    2. Master Data Object
    3. Cannot be used for scenarios where the component has got different validity period
    4. Used as Master data Basis for Planning in SAP-APO
    5. Contains active Master data generated from the combination of routing (BoM & receipe) and production versions
    6. PPDS PPM & SNP PPM's can be used as master data for planning
    7. Not supported by PPM
    8. Not supported by PPM
    9. Not possible here. SNP PPMs will be generated via PPDS PPMs
    10. Not possible
    11. PPMs can be directly created in APO and can be modified without R/3 also.
    12. Little Complex when compared to PDS
    13. Alternate SNP-PPMs can be easily created
    14. PPM can be generated automatically generated only from R/3
    PDS is used in industries wherein there are multiple components or assemblies having diffeent production versions whose validity periods are different.  PPM is being used typically in process industries, chemical industries.  PPM is very simple in its usage and very flexible in operations in terms of modifications at APO level and can be referred to client depending on the business requirement

  • Sound Blaster and Z-5450 Which cable should i use.

    Hi , i just bought an sound blaster and sound system z-5450 and i was woundering ... How should i connect(digital,analog)?them in order to get the best of both sound card and sound system ...
    And How... cuz the sound blaster doesn't have an digital connection as far as i can see
    thanks

    jert23,
    Unfortunately, I could find nothing left on the Logitech site about the Z-5450, much less a copy of the manual.
    I would use the 6-channel analog inputs. Did the speakers come with suitable cabling for that? Generally, (non-Creative) speakers and general audio equipment don't do any bass management for direct inputs, so you probably need to make sure that the soundcard's "bass redirection" feature is enabled, and the crossover frequency is set to match the speakers. It is also usually assumed that the subwoofer output is at full line-level, but the soundcard default is the Dolby LFE -0dB level. The soundcard has a +5dB setting which should take care of this, but it's usually possible to provide the extra 0-5dB of extra amplification needed for correct subwoofer balance via speaker system settings, and I think that is better if it can be done.
    I'm also a proponent of running all the soundcard volumes at 00%, because this maximizes the digital SNR, and setting listening volume with the speaker system, which a remote makes handy. However, this can be percei'ved as less convenient and less intuiti've, so it's really a matter of personal choice.

    Joe, I have always suggested that people use the OCI driver

    How come you choose the thin driver? Oracle will generally
    fix the OCI driver before the thin and the OCI driver will
    give far superior performance when dealing with LOBs.We have actually had faster response getting thin driver fixes
    than OCI-based fixes. Thats interesting. I'll take note of it.
    The 10g driver works with RAC, is much faster than previous
    drivers, and is easier to install etc. OCI users are often
    hopeful about TAF, which is broken and less-than-useless for
    active complicated JDBC applications. OCI problems can bring
    down the whole JVM and are harder to debug.
    These are from reading the results and recommendations of
    Oracle Corporation, Tom Kyte and other Oracle professionals.
    Have you research to say different? I'd like to see it,
    because up until now, I've always suggested OCI first unless
    the client doesn't have an oracle client installation
    available.Tom does an excellent job from the DBMS perspective, but I
    don't see him often in the jdbc arena.His Q&A site is littered with jdbc examples. He also will call
    on people in specific expertise to help him answer questions.
    Here an example of that where he show the OCI driver to be much
    more performant.
