Anyone else having trouble connecting MBP with thunderbolt port (TBp) and 27"iMac with mini display port (MDp)

I have a 27" Imac.i7 with mini displayport and MBP13 i5 with thunderbolt port. Some time ago I tried to connect my old MBP with miniDP  to The 27"iMac I Failed so did the apple centre they refunded cable costs and said I'd be contacted by Cupertino. That was 9 months ago, now replaced MBP with 13 inch(**** I can use my iMac as display!). Does not work phoned Fast Lane very helpful guy called JIM emailed me some software/firmware update links.  Still no display linking. One of the links was for a couple of updates for a TBp equiped 27" iMac mine is only MDp equiped. Failing to find any MDp updates in apple support.  Anyone have any Ideas!  My lad has a later 27"i5 he uses Xbox 360 no problem on his but it wont look at my MBP.
Beginning to feel like some of the kit that went with a fully loaded 5500 worked eventually. Computer and FM radio, Photography kit fine, video capture audio capture forget it.  Too many crashes and resets made it impractical.

  • Anyone else having trouble connecting to BY Yahoo following recent software update?

    Is anyone else experiencing problems with receiving mail from BT Yahoo following recent software update or is that just a coincedence !!  Very annoying.

    Other people have complained of slowness. I'd take a break and try back later. It's possible that it's down and if it is there's nothing that can be done but to wait.

  • Anyone else having trouble connecting new MacBook Air to display?

    I have tried connecting my new 11" macbook air to a 24" acer monitor and a 40" Samsung television and the screen on the MBA turns blue like it's about to connect but then comes back as if it failed to.  Then it keeps trying.
    I'm using the mini diplay port to DVI adapter to a DVI cable into the monitor.
    I have also tired the mini diplsy port adapter into a DVI to HDMI adapter to see if it worked using HDMI,
    Nothing.
    I called Apple and they suggested I bring it into the store.
    I'm running 10.7
    Thanks.

  • Anyone else having trouble with their iPad disconnecting from wifi since 6.0.1 update

    Anyone else having trouble with their iPad dropping wifi about once a week since 6.0.1 update?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • Anyone else having trouble with Hard Candy Cases?

    I ordered a Hard Candy Case back on 3/22. I subsequently received an e-mail from HCC stating that my case order was changed to the newer 'Kickstand' model. Fine. Just want my case. Now after 60 days of being on the market, I still don't have my case even though HCC debited my Paypal account on 3/22. I can't seem to get a response from them either.
    Anyone else having trouble with HardCandy? I hope I'm an isolated case (sorry!), but I am curious if there is a trend.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Anyone else having trouble with FCPX crashing after the OSX update? It NEVER crashed until the update. The night before last it crashed 20 times in 45 minutes. I can't finish my project because of it.

    I don't understand the question. I am simply editing.
    There are some patterns of crashes that suggest possible causes and fixes; some users report crashes when FCPX is in the process of loading; others while importing/exporting, etc. Asking to narrow the list of possibilities.
    Suggest starting with three things:
    1) Update the software from the APp Store  if need be.
    2) Trash preferences.
    3) Repair permissions.

  • Is anyone else having trouble with bookmarks in Windows Safari 4?

    Is anyone else having trouble with their bookmarks in the Windows version of Safari 4? The Bookmarks Bar imported when I upgraded from Safari 3.2.2. But the Bookmarks menu can't be seen when I click the icon that looks like an open book. The History & Bookmarks Menu present in cover flow (which by the way I love and have found very useful). But the Bookmarks Menu option remains blank. At first I thought it hadn't imported - but I've realised they have imported, just aren't displaying.
    They are definately imported because the same Bookmarks Menu is still present on my iPhone through MobileMe synch. Also I can get to the bookmarked pages by clicking Alt-Bookmarks. All the bookmarked pages are there (along with being on my iPhone). So they've imported - they just don't display in Coverflow (or any view at all) when I click the open book icon.
    Does anyone have any solutions please.

    Ok I have a fix for that....
    I just figured this problem out for myself with a friend]
    ==============================================================
    CLOSE SAFARI
    go to MY COMPUTER
    C:
    Documents and Settings
    Your name
    Application Data
    Apple Computer
    Safari Folder
    Delete BOOKMARKS.PLIST
    ( Now I have to warn you this WILL DELETE your bookmarks from Safari so back them up before you do this )
    NOW........
    go back and IMPORT your bookmarks
    take all your bookmarks from the "IMPORTED ON XX/XX/XXXX " folder and drop them into the BOOKMARKS MENU at the top ( not the folder just your bookmarks)
    NOW DO NOT DELETE the Imported on xx/xx/xxxx folder
    for some reason when you delete the IMPORTED ON XX/XX/XXXX folder.... It causes them to go missing under BOOKMARKS MENU
    SO as long as you dont delete the IMPORTED ON xx/xx/xxxx folder they will stay in the BOOKMARKS MENU where you can manipulate them
    ALSO... DO NOT DELETE the IMPORTED FROM INTERNET EXPLORER
    or IMPORTED FROM NETSCAPE/ MOZILLA FOLDERS
    that will also cause your bookmarks menu bookmarks to go missing too
    I guess this is a temp. fix for now
    Thanks,
    Christopher
