Acer AL 707: "Input not supported" - What can I do?

Hello everybody!
I've bought a new Mac mini and I wanted to change the screen resolution and suddenly, the screen got black and a message "Input not supported" appeared. What can I do? I'm totally helpless.

Reset the pram
This should erase your monitor preference.

Typically this indicates a device that has been hacked to be unlocked or jailbroken.
If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

Are you a 100% sure??? Because I'm definitely given the option to do this and there are even downloads to this effect, i.e. iPhone 3G ios 6.0. I am even given this option when I plug my iPhone into iTunes. The only problem I'm having is what I have mentioned above.

HT1937 if you are to update your iphone and after it says the simcard inside is not supported, what can yo do?

That means your phone was hacked to unlock it.
ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
It may no longer be possible to process a legitimate unlock on a phone that was hacked/jailbroken. The hack can do permanent damage.
You can find out who it was locked to and find out if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Don't be surprised if you are never able to use it again. It may be permanently bricked.

Where exactly did you get the phone? That message indicates that the phone is carrier locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use. Note that if the phone is locked to (for example) Orange in the UK, then you can NOT use it on Orange in France. They are not the same carrier, even though they have the same parent.
It's possible that the SIM you have is defective, but I would normally expect to see a different message if that were the case.

Hello I purchase some movies for my kids on ituns for my ipad 2, we wacht them a cople of times and and now everytime y try to whact them it said this movie format is not supported, what can I do

I purschase some movies for my kids on ituns for my ipad 2 we see the movies a cople of times and know every time I try to wacht them it sais this movie format is not supported? What is wrong I want to see them or get my money back
Thank you for your help

your situation is not new. Others have been told by Apple that they have to purchase the entire bottom panel in order to replace the feet. There are engineering solutions that can solve this problem, but to pay nearly $200 to replace a part that costs less than $1 (I am being very, very conservative) to manufacture is too excessive.
I have had the feet come off as well. Fortunately for me, I have not lost them and have been able to replace them. Why they cannot sell them individually is a puzzle to me. Perhaps some bean counter at Apple feels its too much effort to have these items individually in their inventory. I have had nothing but good comments to say about Apple, but sadly this is an exception.
To address your problem, I have seen second hand ones advertised on Ebay. The price was a bit steep, $10 as I remember. Other wise, wjosten's suggestion is the only alternative.

I am trying to download pictures from my canon rebel eos to my Ipad but i get the message "this device is not supported" what can I do ?

I just bought an Apple Lighting to USB Camera Adapter. When I got home to and connected it to my Canon Rebel EOS Digital Camera. I received the error message "This device is not supported" I was wondering if there is any software or drivers I need to download?
Thanks
Don

I use Canon Cameras and have no problems downloading photos from the camera to the Lightning to USB Camera Adapter. My questions and suggestions might be basic but just to make sure:
1. This is an iPad forum area. Are you using the lightning to USB camera adapter with an iPad? Your info in your original post says iPod. I'm not sure that the adapter works with an iPod.
2. After you connect the adapter to your iPad and then use a USB cable to connect the adapter to the camera did you turn on the camera?
3. If you did turn on the camera and still did not get the import of photos to start try a reset your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. This will not cause any data loss.

I restored my iphone 2 to factory settings and now it says the carrier is not supported. what can I do? I bought it from the us years ago and used it in romania and uk.

I have a Iphone 2 bought several years ago from the us, and used it in romania with a romanian number and in the uk. I think it was unlocked in the us by iphone. I did a stupid thing and I reset the phone to the factory settings and now I inserted a lyca sim and it says that The sim card inserted does not seem to be supported. please help me!!!

I'm assuming you're referring to the original iPhone.
More than likely, it was jailbroken or hacked to unlock it.
In the US, all of the original iPhones sold were locked to AT&T. AT&T did not offer unlocking at the time.
The best case scenario is that it has now re-locked to AT&T. Luckily, AT&T now offers unlocking. All original iPhones were sold at full retail. They were not subsidized.
Submit a request here and see if they will unlock it. https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/#/

I have acer al1916w and i have a problem message that say input not supported help

i have acer al1916w and i have a problem message that say input not supported help

under windows 7 - 8.1right click on your desktop and choose screen resolution set a very basic resolution like 1280x1024 @ 60Hz (frequency can be set under advanced options); you need to have a working monitor to set this and then reboot connecting your al1916w. if it still gives you that message, can be a bad cable or some hardware monitor issue.

From where did you buy the iphone?
What country?
What store?
An Apple store? Official Apple reseller?
Why do you think it is unlocked?

DVI to VGA adapter, monitor says "input not supported"

I have just received my MBP yesterday and, when I attempted to attach it via DVI to VGA adapter to my Acer AL2016W flat panel LCD, the monitor told me "input not supported". I was under the impression VGA is VGA is VGA. Perhaps I am mistaken. There is no DVI port on this monitor so I am, essentially, screwed ATM unless I purchase yet another monitor - this one is less than a year old. I require my MBP to be attached to an external monitor due to a disability, and am not sure what to do. I don't believe it to be an isolated issue, especially after viewing some of the other posts about the graphics card being an issue as well. I wish Apple would come forward with a resolution. I realize this issue has probably been posted somewhere already, however I am unable to sift through all the posts due to the aforementioned disability and inability to attach to external monitor. I just can't sit here for that long, so I offer my apologies.

First off, are you connecting in the proper sequence? That is:
1. MBP and monitor powered on
2. connect monitor's VGA cable to the DVI-to-VGA adapter
3. connect DVI-to-VGA adapter to the MBP's DVI port
In that way, the MBP should autodetect the monitor and set the resolution appropriately. Else, the output resolution of the MBP may not suit the monitor, and the monitor will give a "not supported" error.
As a side note, have you considered the options in System Preferences > Universal Access? Options include Zoom, VoiceOver (spoken screen selections), making the cursor larger, and other enhancements for the visually impaired.
Hope this helps...

External display and "clam shell" closed lid mode = "Input Not Supported"

I have an Acer AL2016W 20" monitor hooked up to my again Powerbook due to it having a cracked screen. It is working just fine right now, in 1680x1050, when the screen is open. Citing this article,
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131
I should be able to close it and have it working as well. When I do close it then wake it, I just get a "Input Not Supported" message on the monitor. Any help?

I'm still puzzled at why it the screen is activated when the lid is closed and woken with an external USB device
That's rather puzzling as the display should not work if the lid is closed. If you have an external drive you're able to install a clean copy of Mac OS X to and boot from you can see if the issue persist there. If it does then it's most likely a hardware issue and you should contact AppleCare. If it doesn't then it has something to do with either your software installation else some utility you've installed.

Problems with new display, "Input not supported"

So, I just got myself a new LCD screen (Acer AL2016WCbd) for my G4 (DP 1Ghz Quicksilver 2002 w/ 10.5 installed). The monitor seems to work alright and everything with my Windows box, but whenever I try to use it with my G4 the monitor goes black, flashes an error box saying "Input not supported," and then goes to sleep. It does show the boot screen... the gray background and Apple logo... but goes black after that.
I've tried rebooting, resetting the PMU, tried booting in Single User and Verbose mode, tried hooking the G4 up to another monitor and lowering the resolution to 800x600 @ 75Hz and then reconnecting the Acer, but no dice.
My only other ideas are to try hooking it up over DVI instead of VGA (though I'd need to get an adapter for that); playing around with a few different things in target disk mode by hooking it up to my laptop (which I don't currently have); and trying to boot from my Leopard install disk (when I find it). Might any of these things do any good? Is there anything else I haven't thought of? Or am I just wasting my time?

OK, so I can get the display working if I first boot up with another display, set the resolution to whatever I want it to be, then hotswap in the Acer that's been giving me the problems. But once I restart my computer I have to go through the whole process again. Either the tower isn't picking up on the display profile from the monitor or the monitor just isn't sending it to the tower.
My question now is: is there a way to for me to lock the resolution and refresh rate, so it always outputs at, say, 1680x1050 at 60Hz? Both Newegg and Acer have been giving me all kinds of (excuse me here) sh** about how they can't help me, so I really don't want to deal with them anymore by having to return/exchange the monitor or get it serviced. I mean, I know the thing works and I know the resolution I want it to run at. I just want to be able to lock it so Leopard doesn't revert to some unsupported output every time I reboot.

Roving error message on black screen at start up "Input not supported)

HP Pavilion media center a1547c, running XP. Changed the resolution because the icons appeared larger and the screen went black with a roving error message "Attention: Input not supported" message box is white with grey stripes top and bottom. On restarting, WindowsXP logo comes up, then error message appears but I can hear the Windows "chimes". Anyone?

Start Windows XP in safe mode. Press the power button and then begin tapping the F8 key before Windows boots up. Choose Safe Mode with command prompt. While in safe mode, start system restore by typing rstrui.exe and pressing enter. Choose a restore point dated before before the initial problem began. This may resolve the issue. If it does, fantastic. If not, then continue with the troubleshooting as described below.
When Windows restarts consider two troubleshooting scenarios to isolate the issue. What you need to know is whether the problem lies with the PC's video output of the LCD display.
1) connect a different display to the PC and log into Windows to see if the windows desktop is normal.
2 )install a low powered (inexpensive and less than 1GB VRAM) PCI Express x16 video card. You need to see if that corrects the display issue with the original display connected. That will show you if the motherboard's video output is the issue.
Don't forget to post your result here in your thread.
Best regards,
erico
