Any way to connect MBP to TV?

I have a 17" MBP and would like to know if there is an adapter which can connect it to a TV set?
Also, if there is an adapter would this work with bootcamp? as this would be used for gaming.
thanks

You mean like an Apple DVI to Video Adapter available at the Apple Store?
Use the DVI to Video Adapter to connect the DVI port on a Mac Pro (with ATI X1900 XT), MacBook Pro, or Mac mini to any S-video or Composite enabled device.
Click the "Store" tab at the top of this page, and search for "Apple DVI to Video Adapter".

  • I just bought a new iMac and now I am trying to use it as a screen for my Macbook pro, but it don't have a Mini DisplayPort the new model only have Thunderbolt which my Macbook don't have. Is there any way to connect this two mac's anyway??

    Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system.  10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
    And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines.  Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist.  There are no Firewire to USB cables.

  • Is there any way to connect disabled iPad to network via external software?

    Hello,
    My iPad is disabled because of a Bluetooth mishap (my keyboard in my coat pocket tried to enter my password too many times). So I can't enter my password on the screen. Unfortunately I didn't back up the last few weeks of documents in any way, via either iCloud or syncing. And I just can't erase all the work I've done--it's irreplaceable to me.
    Is there any way to connect the iPad to a WiFi network through external software, maybe using the lightning connector?
    I ask because in iCloud I marked the iPad as Lost (in Find My iPhone), so I may get another chance at entering my password if the iPad can get online to receive the signal. But because it's disabled it won't connect to a network.
    Many thanks for any help!

    Not a big surprise unfortunately...  time to get an iPhone I guess!
    Thanks for the answer Sir!

  • What is the best way to connect MBP 13" - (non retina) to HDMI TV input

    What is the best way to connect MBP 13" late 2012 - (non retina) to HDMI TV input
    ...To get Video and Audio? With one cable ...
    I'm seeing that the "rocketfish" adapter is not handling the job (from these forums).
    I enjoy watching youtube videos, hulu, etc on the big screen through my laptop. The other Windows laptops I'ved had from Sony, HP, Dell, all had HDMI and was easy peasy.
    I don't have the patience to buy and return 10 different types of adaters (nor would Best Buy appreciate that)
    Thank you!

    Look for something like this:

    I connect an XBox 360 to my LED Cinema display with the Belkin AV360 Mini DisplayPort Converter. I can't imagine why it wouldn't work with the Apple TV. It is limited to 720p, however.

  • Now that Garageband is on the iPhone, is there any way to connect a Korg nanoKey to it?

    The subject says it all - I'm wondering if there's any way to connect a Korg nanoKey to my iPhone 3GS running the current version of iOS.
    Thanks and have fun!

    It would take a significant amount of work as you would have to change the pages to PHP. You would also lose any more compatibility with Muse.
    An alternative would be to host with Adobe Business Catalyst and upgrade to the eCommerce hosting plan and do your database functions using Business Catalyst Web Apps. It is a bit of a learning curve but in my opinion the better option than hosting on third party hosting and trying to convert everything.
    Keep in mind that even if you change the pages to php to add mySQL connection this would all have to be done by hand or with Dreamweaver. Muse does not support Database connectivity or dynamic content. The only real practical workaround is to use Business Catalyst along with Muse.

  • I was given an 80gb ipod classic formated with mac os. Is there any way to connect it to my windows pc so I can transfer the song to my library?

    I was given an 80gb ipod classic formatted with mac os. Is there any way to connect it to my windows pc so I can transfer the song to my library? When I try to connect to my pc I get a message asking me if I want to format the drive. I want to try to save the 15000 songs that are already on the ipod. Any suggestions?

    The iPod and iTunes are designed so that you cannot transfer music on an iPod to another iTunes Library. This is because the 15,000 songs do not belong to you and you have no legal right to keep them.

  • Is there any way to connect an ipad to a ethernet  cord or connection with out using wi fi

    Is there any way to connect an ipad to a ethernet  cord or connect with out using wi fi?  Thank  you

    The closest you can come, without having a 3G iPad is to have a cellular mobile hotspot like the Mifi or such device, use that to get to wifi, or to tether it to a cell phone.

  • Is there any way to connect my Apple wireless/bluetooth trackpad and keyboard to my Mac Mini without using a wired or usb keyboard?

    Is there any way to connect my Apple wireless/bluetooth trackpad and keyboard to my Mac Mini without using a wired or usb keyboard?

    Well, I read that already, but I am trying to start up my Mac mini(new purchase) and I cannot get to all the system preferences etc since I cannot get past the startup screens. The site also mentioned waiting to turn on the keyboard until a language was requested. Neither language screen worked. I feel as though I'm just about ready to throw in the towel.

  • Any way to connect external mic (gaming headset) to macbook pro?

    I just made the mistake of buying a gaming headset that has the two audio jacks, input and output. Realizing that Macs dont have the right audio input port now. Before I take them back, is there any way I could get them to work? The sound is fine, but the mic doesn't work obviously. But I do have a pair of wireless Turle Beaches that I use for my Xbox 360, is there anyway I could take some of the connections from that to get this headset to work? Or do I just need to take it back and get a USB headset.

    Most MacBook Pros have both audio in and out, so I don't see any reason why you couldn't use the headset you just bought. I haven't seen any 2012 models, but on older models (my 2011, for instance) the audio out is in front and audio in on the rear of the front left-hand side of the computer. If you have these ports, try them to see if your headphone/mic works before returning it.
    Good luck,

  • Any way to connect an iPod Shuffle (4th gen) to speakers that will keep it charged continuously?

    I'm trying to setup an iPod shuffle connected to small speakers and have it remain charged continuously. Any way to accomplish this?
    I need as simple an interface and setup as possible for my blind Grandmother.

    No, the current shuffle is a simple device that only has one connection point (the headphones jack) that doubles as the audio output and charging/data connection.  On other iPods that have a separate docking connector, you can connect it to something like a USB power adapter and use the separate headphones jack to connect to the speakers.  On a shuffle, you are either connecting it to power/data or you are connecting it to headphones (or the speakers).  You can't do both at the same time.
    It is a good idea to use a shuffle for this purpose, because it is easy to use without the need to look at any screen.  If you can find a used 1st gen shuffle in decent shape, pictured here in this document
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1719
    it may actually work.  That first shuffle has a built-in USB plug (like a USB flash drive), plus a separate headphones jack.  Get a USB power adapter like this one
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD810LL/A/apple-5w-usb-power-adapter
    and a USB extension cable that is long enough to provide comfortable access.  Connect the extension cable to the power adapter, and the shuffle to the other end.  I just tried it (without the extension cable) using my 1st gen shuffle, and it seems to charge and play at the same time.  I can't be 100% sure because I only played it that way for a few minutes.  It might be shutting off the charging while it is playing, but that would not make any sense from the designer's perspective.
    The added benefit in your case is that the battery on the used shuffle does not need to be strong, because it is always connected to power.  And the shape of the 1st gen shuffle is better, because it is long and narrow (like a remote control), not a tiny square.  Also, the 1st gen shuffle has REALLY excellent sound quality.

  • Is there any way to connect an iPhone to an external hard drive without the use of a computer?

    Hello All,
    I am planning to travel to Central America, and I want to take pictures with my iPhone. I only have 8 GB memory, so I wanted to take my 1 TB WD Mac External Hard Drive with me on the trip. Is there any way I can connect my iPhone directly to the external hard drive, without the use of a computer? Thanks in advance!

    The external hard drive has only one input port which is usb, so you can only use usb here. Also try considering online storage.
