3 Displays with FCP7?

I have 2 graphics cards, two Cinema Display monitors and I am trying to get my new HDTV(connected vis HDMI) to play full screen preview. In the VIEW menu I have selected 'AllFrames' and 'Full Screen Preview' I only get a black screen when I try to play full screen preview. What am I missing?

FCP and two graphics cards are the issue. Macs work with more than two displays...FCP does not. And yes, the Decklink...like other video IO cards from AJA and Matrox and MOTU....are designed to ONLY give you full screen, full quality playback from FCP. This is how professional workstations are set up. Two displays for editing, then the IO cards output full screen to HDTVs or broadcast monitors. And they work in conjunction with the graphics cards.

How do i use an external display with my macbook pro?

How do I use an external display with a macbook pro?

Just buy the proper adapter cord, such as MiniDisplay port to HDMI for example. Plug it in and it will be automatically recognized. Use System Preferences > Displays to set options.
The display can Mirror your primary desktop or Extend the Desktop.

Display with #/ data in reporting

Hi experts,
One of the field in Quivery Displaying with #/ infant of the value,
the Actual date :INVIJAY
But it displays :#/INVIJAY (wrong display)
I have checked the hole data flow right from source, RSA3-PSA-InfoObject-Infoset.
the hole flow is being displyed in rightway like INVIJAY.
In RSRT also it displayed wrong like #/INVIJAY
1. what is the solution for this issue, what I have to do to get like INVIJAY.
2. when data is not available it displays #, I want empty instead of #
I am in BI 7.0 environment. in object Properties also everything ok.
Regards
Vijay

Vijay,
Your infoobject is compounded with any other infoobject and compounded infoobject is blank.
There are 2 things to do.
First, load the compounded infoobject so that you will get correct value like XX/VIJAY
Secondly, if you do not want to see the value of compounding infoobject 'XX' then insert this compounded infoobject just above the main infoobject in query designer and hide it.
Let me know if this is not clear to you.
Thanks,
Harry

Use a DVI to micro-DVI adapter if you're on an original MacBook Air, and a Mini DisplayPort adapter for a newer one.

Hi - How do I connect an HDTV as a second monitor to Thunderbolt display with macbook pro in clamshell mode?

I have a Late 2011 Macbook Pro in clamshell mode connected to a Thunderbolt Display with the built in Thunderbolt cable. I want to then connect an HDTV via the Thunderbolt port at the back of the Thunderbolt display. I already had a cable that I thought would work which turns out to be a MiniDisplay port to HDMI cable and therefore not compatible with Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt (Mini DisplayPort not being the same technology although it uses the same port - although I'm not an expert !!) So far a web search has provided me with the only solution being using a Thunderbolt dock or storage that has multiple Thunderbolt ports and then using that to daisychain inbetween the Thunderbolt Diplay and the HDTV. The cheapest solution I can find for this would be about £250. Surely not ??!!!!
Many thanks for any comments - Nik

You could also use aThunderbolt dock with HDMI, such as:

Acrylic 20" Cinema Display with new MacPro

As I read the posts here, to use the old cinema display with an ADC connector I will need to buy Apple DVI to ADC adapter to connect my 20" cinema display with ADC to the new MacPro?
This new DVI to ADC adapter provides power for the cinema display as I understand which is why it's so expensive whereas when cinema display was connected to my Powermac G5 the power came thru the ADC connection?
Is this correct?

Connect the powerbook 15"-Display with a new G5 dual and a ACD?

hi
i wonder if i could connect the pb 15" display with a new G5 dual and turn the pb off, only the display on?
that would be fun.
i am working with a pb 15" and a ACD 20" with Photoshop mainly.
the 15" is the palettes‘ server and the ACD is the main working screen where i retouch my pics.
so if i buy a G5 dual now, i would have to buy a ACD30" for example to use one display for all the Photoshop Palettes and couldn use the pb 15" anymore?
any other less awkward solutions i am not aware of maybe?
thanks"

I'm pretty sure that you can't use a PowerBook for it's display only. You already know, of course, that you can use the PowerBook, as a computer, with an external monitor, with or without the PB's own display running, but so far as I know you cannot use a PB solely for its display.
So, if you bought a G5 dual now, and bought an ACD 30", you could use both your ACD's with your new G5 dual, the 20" and the 30" , but your PowerBook would have to watch the proceedings from the sidelines.

Can I use a 30" Apple Cinema display with a new 27" iMac?

I have a brand new iMac(27-inch, Late 2013), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8), i7 3.5 GHz, 32MB RAM, 4GB NVIDIA. I will soon be upgrading it to Mavericks, if that makes a difference. My understanding is that the resolution on it is 2560 x 1440.
I'm looking at buying a used 30" Apple Cinema display. I'd like to use it with my new iMac. The only advantage for me would be that the 30" screen is larger and things on it easier to see (or so I'm guessing).
I need to know if the 30" Cinema display would work with my new iMac, and if it would, as I'm guessing, give me a larger, easier-to-see screen.
I currently have my new iMac connected to my old mid-2010 iMac as a target display (that old iMac has a minidisplay port--no Thunderbolt), and that works great. I just want a larger screen.
I called Apple support, and the tech rep wasn't sure it would work. He seemed to think that the 30" Cinema displays were made with different connections. Some had minidisplay ports (which he thought would work), and some a cord built into them that provided some other type of connection (that I guess would not work as far as he knew).
Can anyone tell me if this would work? Would my new iMac and its video card support the 30" Cinema display? Would the result be as sharp and good-looking as my iMac's built-in 27" display, but only bigger (which is what I'm hoping for)? Any advice is appreciated.
I don't yet know many of the specifics of the 30" Cinema display I'm considering. I know it is about 3 years old. And here is a picture of the back of it:

Yes, you should be able use the 30" Cinema Display with your new iMac without problems. You'll need a mini-DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter:

I haven't had the 30" myself to test so I don't know if there any caveats. Perhaps someone else here will have personal experience.

How to connect 22" Apple Cinema Display with ADC to Mini DisplayPort?

What are my chances to connect a 22" Apple Cinema Display with ADC connection to my new MacBook Pro with its Mini DisplayPort? Is there a combo possible of some adapter with some cable for instance?

You need a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter

Hi Gilly,
I have no proof, but I think it will not work with an adapter, only Mini Display Port or Thunderbolt.

EXACTLY what cable(s) do I need to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to an external display with a 2560x1440 resolution?

I am trying to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011 w/ Intel HD 3000/ 384Mb) to an external display with a 2560x1440 resolution. Specifically, what cable/connections do I need to display at this resolution? I cannot get the display to work using a "Thunderbolt to HDMI" or a "Thunderbolt to DVI" connector. Note: I used both older and newer (uni-directional) HDMI cables on the first config, and a Dual-link DVI cable on the second config. Apple specs state this is possible ( support.apple.com/kb/SP619 ), but I am at a loss as to how this can be done. Thanks in advance for the help!

You use a Mini DisplayPort to either HDMI or dual-link DVI adapter. If that component doesn't work, something's wrong with either the cable or something else in the connection.

Using An ASD LCD display with a new Mac Mini

I want to utilize a 17" Apple Studio Display with my new Mac Mini.
Does HDMI support the 35-pin Apple Display Connector (ADC)?
It would require an adapter with female 35-pin on one side and a male HDMI (DVI) on the other. The Apple DVI to ADC adapter doesn't work with the Mac Mini HDMI port.
If two adapters are needed they must have the correct gender connections.
Thanks.

Your correct, you would need an Apple DVI to ADC adapter, And ether mini display port to DVI OR HDMI to DVI adapter. (just a question of witch port you want to use)
Apple DVI to ADC adapter when they were first released cost about 120; now they're kind of rare and harder to find. Online they can go for 200 dollars. so 120 to 200 dollars to make your display work; and displays don't last for ever they have parts that will break down. Older displays have a light bulb inside them; witch burn out just like all the other light bulbs in your house.
Also DVI to ADC adapters can some times give you blurry images and or text.
For 120 dollars you can buy a generic brand 19" LCD. That 19" LCD would have better contrast ratio, brightness, and refresh rate then the old 17" monitor. (and it would have a warranty) Or for 200 dollars you could buy 23" monitor.
