Adapter USB (type A) to RCA (red white yellow) what now?

Hello All,
My question to all of you is, I recently inherited a USB to RCA cable, I was hoping to plug it into one of the new digital tv's that has an extra auxiliary set of rca ports to video-mirror from my iBook to the digital TV...
1.1 Is there any particular driver I need?
1.2 Depending on my model of tv, consult the manufacturer?
1.3 Or am I dreaming in well...not technicolor...but Digital? Is there any uses for the cable then that you could suggest?

USB won't work, but you can use an adapter on the mini-VGA port. If the TV has a VGA port, use the mini-VGA to VGA adapter

If there is no VGA port, use the mini-VGA to Video adapter (but the resolution will be lower)

  • Red/White/​Yellow Cables Splitter??​?

    Does this exist? We are looking for a way to get the tv fully set up and not have to worry about playing the switcheroo game. We have the cable, dvd player, wii, and a roku that all need to be hooked up to this tv with these plugs. The tv isn't exactly new but it does have 2 of these ports, but the one in the front has developed a short on the red one I think. It likes to blink if it is bumped or is on too long. I'd like to hook all of these items up to the back ports and have them be hands free no worries. Then save the front port for the occassional plug and play game. If anyone has any ideas that would be great!

    It sounds like you want a combiner, not a splitter.
    There's no good way to "handsfree" combine composite video signals.  However, you can get a switch box that will let you change inputs with the press of a button.  (A lot easier than yanking/reconnecting cables on the back of the TV!)

  • Red green yellow - whats  the logic in it

    hi gurus,
    In PFCG once we get into authorization and display, some are in red and some in yellow and green. It is based on maintained, partially ,unmaintained authorizations. But, when a red changes to green and yellow change to green and green change to red. Hope u understood my question. pls help me in this.
    With regards,
    Livi

    Dear Livingston,
    The logic behind the traffic signals in the Change Authorization Data page is not as explained prior.
    The simple explanations are provided in the help legend in the same page.
    To further elaborate, when you are creating a role with a set of transactions being added to the role from the SAP Menu in the Menu tab of PFCG, SAP organizes the set of Authorization Objects and the Authorization Values as pre-defined for the transactions that is added.
    If certain transactions are left with open fields in the SAP definition these fields appear unmaintained in the Change Authorization Data page. It is the responsibility of the BASIS Consultant of the Security Consultant to fill the unmaintained fields, not just by making them red to green or yellow to green by clicking on the buttons but by finding the correct values that needs to be assigned as authorizations to the role in turn to the user.
    For example, if you have added a functional transaction to a role - a set of authorization objects depending on the dependency of the transaction are added to the role. The organizational levels which are the base of the functional working of the business in SAP are added without the specific value for the organizational value being added, as a BASIS consultant we need to analyze the role with the help of the corresponding functional consultant to identify the activity of the role and assign only the needed Organization Values. This is the situation in which you find the Authorization fields to be in RED color.
    Similar to the above mentioned case when an authorization object field is not completed with an activity for example Read, Write, Display etc access - you find the field to be Yellow when you assign a particular activity to the field the same turns to maintained level and the representation is shown green.
    The objects which are by default maintained is shown green, to generate a role completely and to effectively use the authorizations assigned we need to completely maintain the role, i.e all the fields needs to be maintained.
    By simply changing the status of the field from red to green or yellow to green you are giving complete authorizations to the corresponding activity - which is not recommended in certain categories.
    Hope the explanation is clear - let me know your response.
    Thank you
    Regards,
    Vineeth

  • Why can't I connect iPod to car stereo with red/white RCA cables?

    I have red/white/yellow RCA (I think that's the name of them) plugs in my car stereo and I bought a cable to connect it to my iPod. It's the small plug (3.5 I think) on one end and a split 'Y' that's red and white on the other. The people and my car dealer connected a cell phone that is also a music player to it and it works, but it won't work with the iPod connected. The dealer thought it should be able to work with my iPod, but doesn't know why it won't. Are iPods able to connect to a car stereo this way. Is there another special cable that I need to get?

    No, I should think that would work fine. I have a splitter like that connected to my hifi and no issues...you would want to make sure the volume on the iPod is up all the way; I don't know what car stereo you have, but possibly it's a setting on there that isn't right?

  • How can i connect my apple tv 2 to an rca entrance with yellow red and whit

    my tv is a widescreen HDTV. it has a DVI-D port and RCA red and white audio inputs. i can purchase a HDMI to DVI-D cable. the only issue that i have to sort out is the audio. so, what converter do i need to convert from digital audio to analog?

  • Hi,  im trying to hook up my mac book 7,1 to an older tv with red white n yellow cables.  is this possible.  if so what would i need to buy?

    HI again.  im trying to hook my mac book up to my tv.  its an older tv that has hook up for yellow red n white cables.  if this is possible please tell me what i need to do so.  thank you

    If you want to use the Composite input on your TV there’s no Mini DisplayPort to Composite. The only adapters with Composite are the older Mini-DVI adapters. (Composite is the red, white and yellow RCA plugs on your TV or red, white and S-Video plugs.).
    You’ll could try a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_19?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field -keywords=mini+displayport+to+vga&sprefix=mini+Displayport+to
    And then a VGA Adapter to TV S-Video RCA Out Cable for PC Video. http://www.amazon.com/VGA-Adapter-S-Video-Cable-Video/dp/B000Y7T5UU/ref=sr_1_7?s =electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1316369974&sr=1-7
    I don't know if that would work but it's the only way I would know.

  • How to add a 2nd wireless adapter (usb) to a MacBook Pro?

    I am in an area with a bad signal for wireless, and my airport won't pick up the signal reliably. I have purchased a hama WLAN USB-Stick with flexible antenna, so I can move it around for the best signal. It has drivers for OS X 10.5. However, the installation directions are for older versions of Mac OS X - not Leopard.
    System Profiler detects the adapter, and I have installed the drivers from hama. Now, the instructions say to click on the Apple and select Environment in order to add a new ethernet port (en2, for example) - but, there is no 'Environment' selection under the Apple menu in Leopard.
    So, how do I add this new port???

    I have gotten it to work, but first, for Tim, the manual can be found here (pick the language of your choice) -
    http://www.hama.at/portal/searchSelectedProductNO/type*201/action*1026/searchMode*1/qwlan+usb-stick
    In searching online, I found a "patch" at:
    http://www.hama.at/portal/searchSelectedProductNO/type*201/action*1026/searchMode*1/qwlan+usb-stick
    The instructions on that page include the following text:
    "This is USB CDC for g_ether Linux devices on OS X 10.5 ("Leopard"), patched by Angel Roman of Bug Labs. It has been tested to run on OS X 10.5.2 on Intel Macs.
    This patch exists in order to provided IP-over-USB capabilities to OS X, allowing you to access various embedded Linux gadget-type devices ... connected to your Mac.."
    That sounded like what I needed, so I went ahead and installed their patch - and, it worked. I unplugged the hama device from the USB port, installed the patch, and restarted my machine. Once everything was up, I plugged in the device - and up came the message that a new network device had been detected. Everything worked great from there on, and I'm connected to the hama device now in order to respond to Tim's message! It also shows up in the Network Utility as en2, just as it should.

  • Yellow Red White connections on Old Sony DVD

    Can I connect Apple TV to the Yellow - Red - White input connections on the Video input (Aux Video 2) of the Old Sonly DVD surround home theater?
    Second, can I correlate the Y R W connectors from Sony to the R B G jacks on the Apple TV?
    Do I need another type of cable to connect Apple TV to Sony video?
    Do need to connect an Audio pair of cables in addition to the (3) wire component video setup?
    Failing these possible solutions, what cable(s) should I purchase? I live close to an Apple Store!

    Connect Apple TV to your widescreen TV via an HDMI cable (sold separately). This single cable delivers both audio and video. If your HDMI port is in use, or if your TV doesn’t have an HDMI port, connect using component video cables with analog audio cables or with an optical audio cable (all sold separately).
    You cannot do it with just the YRW jacks. At most you will just get black and white. If you don't have a media center that has the right ports or a tv with the right ports, not much you can do but upgrade one of them.

  • AC wifi adapter usb

    Hi,
    I'm looking for an AC wifi (dual-band) adapter USB with support for OSX (Mountain Lion).
    I've seen a few vendors releasing this but never with an OSX driver?..
    Thanks,
    Kris

    Hi AJ77, what’s the security type you set on your router? In case it is set to Mixed mode, I suggest that you change it to WPA2 personal and see if that will help get the two devices connected. As far as I know, Linksys Smart Wi-Fi routers has an automatic firmware update feature. You may want to check if the firmware is updated. Do you have a different name for the 5GHz network?
    Make sure that the 2 frequencies have different SSIDs to avoid any confusion on some wireless devices.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    i used to have each of those tips when i had the lenovo AC/DC adapter so answering the question was easy.
    in the salespeople's defense, not all of them are briefed on each and every product offering.   sometimes you need to call tech support to get answers about finite details like the above.   or, just post on the forum... that usually nets good results.

  • Using wildcards (*) in sender file adapter - FTP type

    Hi guys!
    Dooes it work using wildcards in sender file adapter (FTP type(!) (filesystem obviously work))? I tried it and it failed. it works only for exact name..
    I read some articles about FTP and the result is, that ftp work always only with 1 file, so I'm wondering, if this is possible.
    Thanks for info!
    Olian

    Thanks for all replies..
    I know of course, that * can be used, I use it in many scenarios too. But on a FileSystem. It is not working if the sender type is FTP.
    *, ., *.dat, ...  nothing like that works..  Just exact file name.
    I am able to pick up file, if I specify it's exact name, so there should be no problem with permissions..
    Please, I'd appreciate one reply with comfirmation: yes, we are using asterisk (*) , we access source files via FTP and they are processed.
    Is there anybody with this experience, that it works?
    Thank you!

  • Charging process is different in PC USB or adapter USB?

    My ipod is charged for 97%.
    If I connect it to my net adapter USB charger, it jumps to 100% instantly.
    When I disconnect it, I get 97% again.
    If I connect it to my PC USB port, it jumps to 95% instantly.
    When I disconnect it, it jumps back to 97%.
    I repeated this test 4 times, and it always shows 100% on net adapter, and 95% on my PC USB port..
    Does my iPod know the difference between both?
    (iPod Touch 4G)

    You should always eject the iPod before diconnecting.  However, if the iPod is not doing something with the cmputer (nothing is showing in the progress bar) then you can safely disconnect the iPod.  If the event of the iTunes freezing, you can exit iTunes and then disconnect.  However, sometimes the iPod will not work and you will have to place the iP{od in recovery mode and restore the iPod via iTunes.

  • How to achieve image using digital camera of USB-type interface through IMAQ PCI-1424 board.

    1.Is it doable?
    2.How to connect USB-type interface with IMAQ PCI-1424 board.
    Thanks!

    See the Developer's Zone (www.ni.com/zone) for specifics on USB (search for "USB").
    "1.Is it doable?"
    - In short "no".
    - USB is similar to FireWire (IEEE 1394), and no framegrabber is required. We offer an IEEE 1394 IMAQ driver to interface FireWire cameras with LabVIEW & CVI.
    "2.How to connect USB-type interface with IMAQ PCI-1424 board."
    - You will need a USB driver for the camera. The 1424 is not required.
