Any ideas why my HDMI cable won't work anymore?

I have a 2011 MBP and a Belkin HDMI cable. I've used the cable to connect to HDTVs and a VVME brand projector. When I connected the cable into my MBP it would always just work. Now, for a brief period my laptop screen goes blue like normal, but nothing appears from my computer to the projection screen, and then my laptop screen goes back to normal. So although the HDMI cable is connected from the projector to my MBP, nothing happens anymore. There isn't a galaxy screen or anything, the screen just says 'No Signal'. Does anyone have any suggestions?

HT201317 My Photo Stream has suddenly stopped pushing my photos to my PC though they appear on both my iPhones. Any ideas why or how to make it work again?

My Photo Stream has suddenly stopped pushing photos from my iPhone 4s to my PC although they are appearing on my other iPhone. Any ideas why or how to fix the issue? I have not altered any settings.

Hi Kevinmvb,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below may be able to help you with this. It sounds like you may have moved your photos out of the Uploads folder where they need to reside.

Any idea why the applets starts but nothing works?

I am 1 month old. Here is small training program that I am trying. Any idea why the applet is running but nothing works?
thanks
package javaapplication1;
import java.awt.Container;
import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MoneyCollect extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
private JLabel promt;
private JTextField input;
private int total;
    public void main(String [] args){
        Container c = getContentPane();
        c.setLayout( new FlowLayout() );
        promt = new JLabel ("Enter number of hours");
        input = new JTextField (10);
        input.addActionListener(this);
        c.add(promt);
        c.add(input);
    public int calculateCharges(int hrs){
        if ( (hrs>=0) && (hrs<=3) && (hrs != 24) ){
        total = 2*hrs;
        if((hrs>=3)&& (hrs<24) && (hrs != 24)){
        total = (int) (((hrs - 3) * 0.50) + 6);
        if (hrs == 24){
            total = 10;
        return total;
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        int hrs = Integer.parseInt(e.getActionCommand());
        showStatus ("You have to pay:"+calculateCharges(hrs));
}

...because changing this:
public class MoneyCollect extends JFrameto this:
public class MoneyCollect extends JAppletdoes not create an applet. Get a beginning java book and start reading it. I recommend "Java2: A Beginner's Guide".
Or, you can read the following tutorial to learn why your program is not an applet:

Any idea why my macbook pro won't allow me to save anything?

I have plenty of free space- when I click 'Save As' in Illustrator the save window pops up but then disappears again in a second before I am able to save it. The same thing is also happening in Safari browser. Very odd as it has only just started doing it after having this mac for 3 years!

Start with these and see if it helps:
SMC reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Follow directions for a battery you should not remove yourself
pram reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
Try a safe boot, some times this can fix some glitches, power off, power back on holding the shift key till you see the progress indicator (note this will take longer than normal) login, logout. Boot normally.

Any idea why this desktop file won't launch the application?

I have been trying to get this desktop file to work so I can launch epsxe faster. However, it does not do anything when I try to run it. Mind you I do have the permissions and group set correctly. Here it is:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=ePSXe
Comment=Enhanced PSX emulator
Exec=/opt/epsxe/1.9.0/epsxe
Icon=/opt/epsxe/logo.jpg
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Game;

You REALLY do have permissions set correctly? Mind posting a "ls -la /opt/exsxe/1.9.0/"? Have you tried setting Terminal to ture? You could run it in the background with &. Also, have you tried reading the manual pages for your PSX emulator?

Any idea why command-shift-delete is not working?

I have had a MacBook Pro for a few years, and recently purchased a new iMac. the iMac arrived, and I transferred everything from the MBP to the iMac using the Migration Assistant. Worked very well, from what I can tell. The only thing I am unable to do is delete using shift-delete and empty the trash using command-shift-delete.
I should also say that I did the initial setup of my iMac with a separate Admin account, then deleted that account to use the old account from my MBP on the iMac. I suspect this is a permissions issue, and I have seen articles that suggest deleting this trash account and letting OS X recreate.
Any thoughts on what else to try?
Thanks in advance for any help!

baltwo - I acknowledge that I wrote this incorrectly as shift-delete. That said, I am unable to delete a file/folder using command-delete. Also, unable to empty the trash using command-shift-delete.
I had already tried resetting my keyboard shortcuts, and this did not help either.
And these shortcuts worked on my MBP prior to the migration.
do appreciate the reply and attempt.

Any ideas why this "if" statement is not working?

I have this code inside a click command. The first part works, will change variable to 5. But if variable = 5 animation does not play:
if (position != "5"){
                              sym.setVariable("position", "5");
                              var position = sym.getVariable("position");
                                        sym.$("Text3").html(""+position);
else if(position==5)
sym.play("animation")
Thanks

Hi there, can you put a console log before the if statement to confirm that you have a valid value for the "position" variable, at that click scope?
console.log('position = '+position);
Run it in your browser and open the JS console to check the log output of the above test.

Dropped my phone in water and now the camera doesn't work, any ideas why its' the only thing not working

I somehow knocked my iphone 4s in the sink of water and everything seems to work except the camera. Is there a way to reinstall the software or does anyone know what I can do other than using phone protection insurance? All my pictures are there and they upload and share but just can't get the camera to take pictures.

The device is damage, it was dropped in water. You are lucky that the device works at all.

Any idea why burning mp3 to cd never works?

I drag all my mp3s to cd and burn but when your the cd in my stereo it says cdrom disc?

Most CD players used for music only play CDDA-formatted (CD audio) disks.
In dragging your MP3 files to a CD and burning, you created an ISO9660-formatted CD-ROM (not an audio disk, but rather a computer disk containing MP3 files).
The iTunes application can be used to select audio files (MP3 or other formats, like AAC) and convert them into a CDDA-formatted disk to play on CD audio players.

I have the first ipad and it won't recognize the charger and also the computer won't recognize the ipad when I plug it in to sync. Any ideas why?

I have the first ipad and it won't recognize the charger and also the computer won't recognize the ipad when I plug it in to sync. Any ideas why?

If your using the same cable for your wall charger as you are for your computer, than the problem is probably within the cable (if there isn't visible damage to the cable of coarse). The quockest solution would be to buy your self a new cable. There is probably nothing wrong with your wall adapter, so just the cable will do.

You created the video DVD, the IMG file, with iDVD and just burned it with Disk Utility. As Klaus1 pointed out Disk Utility can't create video DVDs.

HT3775 I have Mac OS X v10.6.8 and it won't play an mpg file. Any idea why not?

I have Mac OS X v10.6.8 and it won't play an mpg file. Any idea why not? I get the message that The document “M2U00002.MPG” could not be opened. The movie is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands. You may need to install additional software to open this type of file. But when I go to the help page it says that Quick TIme will play MPEG. Any help would be appreciated a lot. Thanks!
