Apple monitor options for pismo?

hi all,
i'm thinking of getting an external monitor for my pismo - to give the lcd a rest and as an extended display for fcp etc. i was thinking of a 17" crt apple studio display - the clear backed ones - as it wouldn't bee too expensive and they look cool as well. however i've been told that these monitor don't have an agp connection and a converter is big $$. i could get a new (non-apple) lcd, or second hand non-apple 17" quite cheaply, but with google having proved fruitless i'm just wondering what apple options there might be?
cheers!

ah, thanks for that jpl! i have that adapter! tho i'm wondering if that document refers to the clear or graphite crt displays or both? i was told by a re-seller that the clear backed crt a) doesn't have the right connection, and b) as the power and monitor connection is all in the same cable that it won't run off a powerbook... could be bad info...
thanks!

  • Is it too much to ask from apple, an option for different volumes levels from different apps, including alarm, text, email, basically from every posible app?

    Is it too much to ask from apple, an option for different volumes levels from different apps, including alarm, text, email, basically from every posible app?

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • External monitor options For Macbook Pro(2011)

    Just curious as to what my monitor options are as a external monitor for the Macbook Pro.  I'm pretty much set on 27'' thunderbolt display but its a hefty price to swallow...
    Best buy has some good deals on there 27'' monitor but can i get the same resolution and clarity from other brands that will be eqivalent to Apple?
    I'd like to stay in the 27'' to 30'' size...
    thanks

    Any other options like Samsung, LG etc... that offer the same specs as the thunderbolt display? 
    Thanks

  • Would be useful if there was a monitor option for posts

    When you post a message to a forum it would be useful if there was an option for it to email you when your post has been replied to.
    Also when performing a search it would be useful to display the number of replies to the messages - ie there is no point looking at a message if it has had no reply.

    Hi Todd,
    thanks for the feedback. I will share this with the technical team.
    Thanks and kind regards,

  • External Monitor Options for iMac?

    I have an iMac and have been using a lot with my 7D files. They look great, but I would like to have an external monitor output. Any ideas on output modules for iMac? Thanks!

    is if there is a Firewire out that can send my Color display out to my Trinitron monitor, like FCP
    No, absolutely not. COLOR does not support FireWire output. The developer intended the application to be used with a PCIe Video I/O interface, (Kona, for example, as opposed to GPU) supporting HD-SDI output, and the fixed output gamma characteristic of 2.2 was assigned as default to support that.
    *All other approaches* are considered to be +ad hoc+ substitutes and are +de facto+ "as is". The policy should be read as -- "we made it one way which functions very precisely; if you want something else, that's your business"... but for a very large number of non-broadcast content producers, that's fine. It doesn't matter if its technically "wrong", as long as there is a result, not to imply that no one cares about the products they are generating -- but there are obviously some very large knowledge gaps in the consuming population in this area.
    That's my possibly cynical interpretation of the history and situation...

  • Want advice on dual monitor options for touchsmart for IQ 770

    My screen is just too small (use dual monitors at work) so I bought a 2nd monitor, brought it home and there was no where to plug in the connector cords. Surprise!  Is it possible to have a dual screen with the touchscreen? A retail guy told me no when I tried to find an adaptor of some sort. Any help appreciated.

    You should be able to use a USB display adapter:

  • Disk monitoring options for firewire connected hard drives

    I recently connected a 750 gig Western Digital hard drive to my Mac via Firewire. I just learned that Disk Utility's S.M.A.R.T. capability will not monitor hard drives connected via Firewire or USB.
    Does anyone have suggestions on 3rd party applications that might give me some piece of mind that the disk is in good health?
    Thank you!

    Hi David,
    most (if not all) FireWire and/or USB connected external HDs don't report any kind of S.M.A.R.T. status. Even if they do, OSX has not implemented them.
    See here:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-Monitoring%2CAnalysis%2C_and_ReportingTechnology
    Even the third-party tools like SmartReporter or smartmontools can't get informations from FW/USB-HDs.
    Only eSATA connected external HDs are supported.
    Sorry

    Yeah, I'm having the same exact problem - It seems that the thunderbolt minidisplay port is only able to output the analog VGA signal, not the digital signal to support DVI and HDMI. This is a bug that came up after installing 10.7.1. I bought my macbook air with 10.7 on it, upgraded it to 10.7.1 as soon as I got it, so I have never been able to use hdmi or dvi with my macbook air. This is an extremely frustrating problem for me, I used HDMI on a daily basis with my PC. I have spent many hours at the genius bar running diagnostic tests so Apple can get as much information as possible to create a fix for this problem. I have been emailing tech support for 3 or so weeks now, they keep saying that they are working on a fix and it should be out soon, but 10.7.2 has come and gone and I still have no HDMI functionality with my MacBook Air!

    Which one can I use properly to monitor all the wireless Devices in my hous

    Actually, none of the options will do what you are looking for it to do. That is because, this application only monitors the traffic from the device it is hosted on. That would also mean that you would have to run a copy on each computer that will access the Internet on your network; note their individual usages, and then, combine them to get an idea of the total usage.
    However, if you are only interested in the amount of Wi-Fi traffic that only your computer is seeing, then the "AirPort Network Card" option would be the correct choice.

  • What's a good non-Apple monitor for my 13" MacBook Pro? Looking around 20-23 inches, preferably LED.

    I have a 13" MacBook Pro and I'm in the market for a non-Apple monitor (Apple monitors are way out of my price range). I'm looking for 20-23 inch monitor, preferably LED. I need it to edit articles for publication and for Bar Exam studying in the next year. What brands have shown to have good compatibility with Mac? Do I need an adapter of some sort?

    You'll need an adapter cable, and which one you need depends on what version MBP you have and the inputs on the monitor.
    I just recently purchased a Dell U2410 to use as a second display with my iMac. Overall I'm pretty happy with but my use is a little different, I wanted something with very good color accuracy for photo work.  Based on what you said your needs are, you probably don't have to spend as much. 
    One thing I will say, is this particular monitor (and I believe all Dells) has an antiglare screen on it, which to be honest, took me a little getting used to.  Because of the matte surface, text and documents aren't quite as sharp and can even look a little hazy at times.  For your uses  you may be better off with a glossy screen as long as glare isn't going to be too much an issue for you.
    BenQ makes some pretty nice and affordable monitors these days LED backlit or otherwise, and on that note, theres absolutely nothing at all wrong with non "LED" monitors, both technologies are still using an LCD panel for the display, they just deal with the backlighting differently.
    As the other poster mentioned, NEC is always a good option as well.  Less common on the consumer side, but they make very good professional products.

  • Do I need to use an apple monitor for my pc to work right.

    I brought a G5 tower without a hard drive.  Put a new 1 terabite hard drive and got new osx 10.5.  Having trouble installing the osx.   Seems like the optical drive is not reading the disk.  Swapout optical drives with one from another working pc (dell), still not reading disk.  Do I really need to have apple
    keyboard, mouse, and monitor, for it to work properly.  Am I just waisting time and money.

    A windows monitor, mouse, and keyboard will work on most older Mac computers. However you really need a Apple keyboard because there are some different keyboard keys your gonna need like the Apple and Option key that a windows keyboard doesn't have.
    As far as the hard drive I work mostly on windows hardware so someone like BDAqua would be very knowledgeable with that. I seem to think you need the hardware drivers for the G5 that may or may not be with the new OS 10.5? A Dell hard drive will not work with the G5 if it already has a windows OS installed to it, you'd have to reformat the Dell hard drive while in a Dell computer to erase it. Your not wasting your time.

  • How do I use my iPad with Retina Display model MD514LL/A with apple tv? I see no option for airplay and I have the latest update.

    I am having trouble mirroring my ipad with my new apple tv. I don't see any options for airplay. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Is your apple tv also up to date?
    Are they both on the wireless network, or is the apple tv using an ethernet cable?
    Reboot your wireless router, your apple tv, and your ipad, in that order.

  • I often download tv shows on apple tv. All of a sudden I don't have the option to download tv shows but can download movies. Internet connection is good. I simply don't have the search or download options for tv. What is happening?

    I often download tv shows on apple tv. All of a sudden, my screen does not display download options for tv shows. I can download movies no problem
    and the Internet connection is good. It just no longer shows options for tv shows except for my tv shoes (already downloaded). what is going on?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check your store location is set correctly, if this doesn't help, try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for a 30 seconds.

  • Best Practice for ASA Route Monitoring Options?

    We have one pair Cisco ASA 5505 located in different location and there are two point to point links between those two locations, one for primary link (static route w/ low metric) and the other for backup (static route w/ high metric). The tracked options is enabled for monitoring the state of the primary route. the detail parameters regarding options as below,
    Frequency: 30 seconds               Data Size: 28 bytes
    Threshold: 3000 milliseconds     Tos: 0
    Time out: 3000 milliseconds          Number of Packets: 8
    ------ show run------
    sla monitor 1
    type echo protocol ipIcmpEcho 10.200.200.2 interface Intersite_Traffic
    num-packets 8
    timeout 3000
    threshold 3000
    frequency 30
    sla monitor schedule 1 life forever start-time now
    ------ show run------
    I'm not sure if the setting is so sensitive that the secondary static route begins to work right away, even when some small link flappings occur.
    What is the best practice to set those parameters up in the production environment. How can we specify the reasonanble monitoring options to fit our needs.
    Thank you for any idea.

    Hello,
    Of course too sensitive might cause failover to happen when some packets get lost, but remember the whole purpose of this is to provide as less downtime to your network as possible,
    Now if you tune these parameters what happen is that failover will be triggered on a different time basis.
    This is taken from a cisco document ( If you tune the sla process as this states, 3 packets will be sent each 10 seconds, so 3 of them need to fail to SLA to happen) This CISCO configuration example looks good but there are network engineers that would rather to use a lower time-line than that.
    sla monitor 123
    type echo protocol ipIcmpEcho 10.0.0.1 interface outside
    num-packets 3
    frequency 10

  • I purchased a  MBP 13.3/2.5/8GB/128GB FLASH from Apple store in Manhattan Beach,CA some months ago. It has only 128 GB storage. What us the best practical option for additional storage ?

    I purchased a  MBP 13.3/2.5/8GB/128GB FLASH from Apple store in Manhattan Beach,CA some months ago. It has only 128 GB storage.
    I soon realized that I did a big mistake not upgrading the storage when purchasing. I thought I could upgrade later which is not possible I understand.
    My Q:
    What is the best and most practical/userer friendly option for additional storage say up to 1 TB ?

    Hey leiv karsten,
    As your macbook is retina,you can't upgrade it like previous generation macbook pro.You can purchase a portable 1TB external harddrive.
