How to connect my MacBook to a monitor and TV at the same time? I have a thunderbolt, what else do I need?

I have an ASUS monitor and a SONY TV set. I have 2 HDMI cables, one for the TV and one for the monitor. I also have a Thunderbolt for my Mac and I have HDMI Pigtail Switch with 3 ports. For some reason when I connect the Pigtail Switch to the Thunderbolt and the 2 HDMIs to the Pigtail nothing happens. Anyone knows the answer?

Sounds like you're using a POP mail account.
You should get an IMAP account. such as the free one you get with iClourd.

Discrepancy between HD monitor and output video

Howdy community,
I have a weird problem with Final Cut Pro 7. I have an Asus VW266H HD monitor, set at a good viewing angle on my desk. When I was editing some footage, it looked WAY too dark, so I used a color correction filter and brought the blacks up to 95. The resulting image in the FCP viewer window is the one you see on the left in my screen shot. I hope you can imagine just how dark the original footage was. I was reasonably satisfied with how the footage looked, especially since it wasn't looking "milky" like it can if you lighten/whiten too much in post.
So then I exported the footage, and got the image on the right (in my screen shot). These two images are from the same second of video, on the same monitor. NO changes were made between the exported version in QT on the right and the FCP viewer image on the left.
Why does my monitor and/or the final cut viewer window show me an image that does not represent my output? If the image in final cut and the exported version in quick time look so different, how can I trust my eye in final cut?
Obviously, this is a huge problem.
Please help!!!

If that is the case, how does the editor control how the image looks to others?
You can't. This general problem has been around since the advent of moving pictures. Wander over to the video wall at any big box store and look at the displays. There won't be two that appear alike. All you can do is control the image you send out.
If you are seriously interested in image integrity, get yourself a output device from AJA, BlackMagic, Matrox, etc that can send a qualified signal and a calibrated broadcast TV monitor to to view that signal. Then you'll know what it really looks like.
To paraphrase the old Yiddish saying, "A man with two clocks can never be sure of the time, but, man with an atomic clock, will know."
Good luck.

Macbook to Asus monitor resolution problem

I have a ’08 Macbook connected to an Asus monitor via DVI. I’ve been working at 1280 x 800 with a “usable” resolution of 1280 x 720 (listed in Mac Color LCD dialogue box). In the Asus VH238 dialogue box, many higher resolutions are available (max 1920 x 1080) but don’t work. At least I didn’t think they did, until I “accidentally” opened the Macbook lid and/or turned on the power on the monitor or some combination of moves that somehow allowed 1920 x 1080 resolution to work. Unfortunately, it only happened once and I can’t seem to duplicate what I think I did. Any suggestions?

Hi gasser29,
I'm unclear if you are still running 10.6 as is noted in your post, but for most versions of OS X, if you hold down the Option key when selecting the Scaled radio button in Displays, it should give you additional display resolution options:

If you select a resolution that isn't supported and your display becomes black or unreadable, you may also find this article helpful:

Asus monitor compatible

is there a compatibility problem with asus monitor?

https://www.asus.com/Monitors_Projectors/MX299Q/
says
DisplayPort, HDMI/MHL, and Dual-link DVI ports for multi-device connectivity
With HDMI youcould only get 1920x1080 but that may not work. I would use the display poret on the mnitor and get a mini display port to display port cable. They cost about $10-15. You can also get a dual-link DVI adopter for about $100

Colors displaying as dull yellowy-green; new monitor and calibration

Just got a new ASUS LCD monitor, and calibrated it with the Spyder 3 Express.
Now when I import a .CR2 file using Lightroom 3 to edit the RAW image, the color is displayed as yellowy-gray and dull. It looks the same when I pull it into Elements 7, unless I remove all color management (which, if I save the image, actually then renders the image colors neon and oversaturated with lots of pink and red tones). If I export the image from Lightroom 3 the image colors are correct and very different from how they look in Lightroom.
I also use the ACR editor with Elements 7 and I am having the same problem there. Upon opening an edited Jpeg or a .CR2 RAW file there, the color is displayed as dull, grayish yellowy-green.
If I view the very same image in GIMP, Picasa or on the web, as long as the colorspace is intact (sRGB), the color is accurate. Not so in Elements or Lightroom.
If you have experience with this problem is it the monitor, the calibration, or Elements and Lightroom? I am beyond frustrated and need to see my colors properly. I have not had this problem before.
Thanks for your time.

I suggest re-reading C S S Simon's and my reply, including the links I provided with solutions and historical explanation – It is apparent you didn't!
Pay your money and make your display choice, but don't blame the wide gamut capable display because you are unwilling to learn how to use the technology advantages it provides!
Please read this factoid:
All Wide Gamut Displays when properly setup to display in a "wide gamut" mode such as Adobe RGB will only display images correctly in color managed applications – PERIOD.
Your Asus display has two factory calibrated modes, Adobe RGB and sRGB, which will only work properly using the color profile provide to you on CD (or downloaded) by Asus – This the monitor profile Asus used when hardware calibrating your specific serial number monitor at the factory. The displays internal LUT contains that calibration information, and there is no way for you to recalibrate it using a Spyder 3 or other hardware calibrator. I am going to paste here three separate solution alternatives I made at the other post – Use only one (1):
Solution 1) Delete your i1 Display custom profile and install the Asus provided PA246Q driver and profile. Then use the monitor's "factory calibrated" Adobe RGB wide Gamut selector mode with Lightroom and other color-managed applications. When using non-color managed applications, switch your monitor’s mode selector to sRGB. Calibration using i1 Display or other hardware device cannot be used with this option. User hardware calibration should only be performed using the monitor's 'User Mode.'
Solution 2) In addition to your Asus PA246Q wide gamut monitor, install a second standard gamut sRGB monitor. Calibrate both monitors separately using your i1 Display unit, which will create separate profiles for each monitor. Use your Asus PA246Q wide gamut monitor only with Lightroom and other color managed applications. Use your second sRGB monitor for with both non-color or color managed applications. You may still have issues properly calibrating your Asus PA246Q monitor with its proper 'User Mode' selection as others have reported, but the results should be better than what you have now.

http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1004&message=3908 1965&changemode=1
Solution 3) If none of the above works for you, get rid of the Asus PA246Q and buy a good standard "non-wide gamut sRGB display.

Connected new monitor and now outlook 2010 wont work properly

Hello, we just connected an new 2013 Asus monitor for my computer that's running Windows XP. Since doing so we cannot use OUTLOOK 2010. Everything else seems to work. Can anyone tell why its not working properly? We have a SSD drive running XP with an
external 2 tera bite hard drive where most programs and files reside. THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE US.

Hi,
Would you please detail the symptom of this issue? Is the issue that you click on the Outlook icon but it doesn't start, or there's an error message, or it crashes?
Since this happens after connecting to a new monitor, I recommend you upgrade the graphics card driver to the latest to check the result. In addition, official drivers are more recommended.

No firewire video monitoring in MacBookPro - Leopard

For years I've used cheap camcorders (JVC GR-D30u and Sony ZR85) for video previewing in offline editing. I was using a G4 MDD and Final Cut HD 4.5 on Jaguar with no problems.
Now I have a 2.6GHZ MacBookPro with Leopard (10.5.2) and Final Cut Pro 6.0.3 and cannot do something as simple as previewing video on a TV through any of this miniDV cameras.
I'm using the traditional setup. Computer>>Firewire>>Camcorder>>A/V cable>>TV
Everything is OK if I connect only the camcorder to the computer with the firewire cable. I can capture and play external video to camcorder's lcd. But as soon as I connect the A/V cable to the TV set, the MacBookPro disconects from the camcorder as if I had turn it off. The same happens in Final Cut and imovie.
To sum up. I can use the camcorders with no problem if I don’t connect it to a TV set. Its not camcorder problembecause I used the same settings and configuration with no problems with my old G4 MDD.
Anyone has any clue ?
Is this a software or hardware problem ?
PLEASE HELP !
Thankyou in advance for any advice.

You've said that the signal is running fine via FW to the camera so why would it be a problem with the MBP.
If the issue only arises when you plug the camera into the monitor, I would suspect the camera or it's settings.
What happens when you disconnect the camera from the computer. Can you play a tape out to a monitor?
Have you tried connecting everything, (the camera, monitor and computer) and powering all up before launching FCP?

Preventing SLEEP when using External Monitor and Keyboard

Prior to Leopard, whenever I had an external monitor and keyboard attached and closed the MacbookPro lid the system would not go into SLEEP mode. Now it does.
What's to be done to prevent this from happening?

PS.... when this last occurred, the backup drive for Time Machine disconneted when SLEEP was invoke by closing the lid and did not reconnect when the system restarted.
I also received a 'warning' that a device was not disconnected properly.

Monitor and i/o hardware advice for fcp6 editor

I am a videographer who mostly creates content for the web. I have an upcoming project for local broadcast and would like to get a calibrated video monitor for editing. Can anyone advise on a monitor and other hardware for someone on a budget. Matrox? Ideally it would be a flat screen monitor that isnt too big.
I shoot DVCPRO HD (hpx170) to p2 cards, then log and transfer to FCP 6. I keep my media on a 4TB esata enclosure. I have a G5 dual 2.7 mac powerPC and will probably upgrade to a new intel tower when they come out in June. Presently I don't have the need to capture uncompressed HD but wouldn't mind having the ability to do so if possible. The HPX170 doesnt have an hdmi out, so I don't think I could do so with a matrox. Is it possible to get uncompressed HD out of the HPX thru HD/SDI into a mac g5 and fcp6? or an intel macbook pro?
thanks for any help
power mac g5 dual 2.7 osx 10.5.8 fcp 6.0.4 4TB esata enclosure

For reference, I have the same G5 dual 2.7 PowerPC tower, FCP6 and shoot DVCProHD to P2 (An HPX500 for me). My research findings were that neither the AJA I/O HD or the Matrox solutions will work with a PowerPC for HD - we both need to upgrade to Intel machines for that. Both my tower and my Intel macBookPro work great with my AJA I/O for uncompressed SD, but as we know, HD is another beast all together.
For what it's worth, I don't think that outputting material RECORDED to P2 as DVCProHD will give you anything by "uncompressing" it - DVCProHD is 4:2:2 8-bit and won't get any better... (live feed from a camera may be another matter).
Bottom line - Both the Matrox and AJA solutions have been getting great reviews with Intel machines, I guess the writing is on the wall for us!

I have a MBPro mid 2013 with 1 Thunderbolt port. Just bought a Mac monitor and want to daisy chain a PC monitor to it. Use a Mini DVI to VGA adapter from MBP to PC monitor. How do I daisy chain the 2 monitors?

Hall Palm Desert,
if your Mac monitor has Thunderbolt ports, and the PC monitor is on the end of the daisy chain, then you might be able to do it by connecting your PC monitor’s VGA cable to a Mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter (e.g. Apple, NewerTech), connecting that cable’s Mini DisplayPort end to one of the Mac monitor’s Thunderbolt ports, and then connecting a Thunderbolt cable between the other port on the Mac monitor and your MacBook Pro.

Under Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Boot Camp, my 27 inch Apple LED Cinema Display checks out as a Generic PnP Monitor and is shown as NOT HDCP compliant. I haven't been able to find any kind of an .inf file to use. Does anyone have a solution?

Under Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Boot Camp, my 27 inch Apple LED Cinema Display checks out as a Generic PnP Monitor and is shown as NOT HDCP compliant. I haven't been able to find any kind of an .inf file to use. Does anyone have a solution? Or is Apple's implementation of HDCP (if it's there) incomplete?

I am having this same issue. Im not sure if this is the cause but I think this is keeping PowerDVD Ultra 11 from playing back Bluray under Windows 7 / Bootcamp

When I had a PC I simply took the wire going to my monitor and connected to my big screen TV to watch Netflix movies...How do I take them from my IMAC and connect them to my TV now?

This could be problematic.
It will depend on what model of iMac you have.
You may want to post machine info.
blue apple > about this mac > more info button. Click on the hardware line. It has a little triangle in front of the work hardware.
Leave out the serial number.
Example:
Machine Name: iMac
Machine Model: PowerMac4,1
CPU Type: PowerPC 750 (33.11)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 600 MHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
Memory: 768 MB
Bus Speed: 100 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.1.9f1
Most of the iMac's have sometype of video output port on the back. You will problably need a converter.
The 'hollywood' industry has been making it more difficult to get video out over time to prevent copying.

MacBook Pro performance issues w/2nd monitor and FCP7

I have this MacBook Pro bought brand-new in January 2010:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro5,2
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 3.06 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
and until today had never attached a second monitor to it. Today I hooked up my Samsung 24" to do some dual screen editing in Final Cut 7.0.3. I was unable to play back my video at full speed in the second monitor, and after a few seconds of skippy playback I'd get that error message about unable to play back video at full speed and to check my RT settings. I was using a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter. My computer has no issues playing the video in the laptop's monitor at any resolution and any quality settings (I've never changed the RT settings or anything else in the menu ever but I tried every combination this time). I then tried using my TV as a 2nd monitor with an HDMI adapter. Same performance issues. I then tried my friend's newer 13" MBP 8,1 and it performed flawlessly with the same project & footage. I feel like my $3,000 computer should outperform a $1,200 one even if mine is a year and a half older. Any advice?

Wow, you posted this perfectly to coincide with an identical problem, albeit using Logic Pro 9.1.5 rather than FCP.
Last week, I purchased a 23" external monitor to use alongside my "flagship" 2011 15" hi-res, 2.3 i7 Macbook Pro with 8Gb of RAM.
It is connected via a mini-DVI to D-sub analog (not that that should matter?) and all appeared fine.
The first issue I had was with my MBP's fan now running CONSTANTLY, when I have the second monitor attached. Even when the machine is completely idle.
When using the machine to record audio, this is a fairly hefty problem and not something I had anticipated - indeed why would I anticipate such a thing?
What is far, far worse though is that over the last few days I have had repeated problems with performance drop-outs and errors in Logic and I have trying to fathom out why. Realising that the only major system change made, was the above monitor connection, I ran some tests.
I restarted my MBP, no other apps were running and with my new 23" monitor attached acting as main display with MBP built in display on as secondary
I loaded up a fairly demanding Logic project which was hitting 40% to 60% CPU usage when using the built in MBP display last week
I ran activity monitor and had CPU usage history open
The above project now repeatedly overloads and playback halts in a given 8 bar section - with CPU at 80% most of the time
I disconnected the external display, no shut down, I just let the machine switch to the built in 15".
Started the same project, the same 8 bar section and hey presto - CPU usage back down to 40% to 60%
The above was reflected in the CPU usage history with the graph showing CPU use down by about a half, when running this Logic project WITHOUT the external display.
There is a very useful benchmark Logic project that has been used as a test by many users to gauge Logic performance on given Apple hardware.
The project has about 100 tracks pre-configured with CPU intensive plugins, designed to tax the CPU.
The idea is that you load up the project with tracks muted, press play and then unmute the tracks steadily until Logic us unable to play contiunously because of a system performance error.
On my MBP, with the external monitor NOT attached, I can play back around 50 of the audio tracks in this benchmark project.
With the monitor attached, I can get about 22 tracks playing.... which is actually a far worse a performance drop (-50% I think!?) than with the first example!
I did also try with just the external monitor attached and not the MBP display and performance was about 10% better than with dual monitors - so still extremely poor, to say the least.
This machine is the flagship MBP and has a dedicated AMD Radeon HD6750 GPU which should take care of most if not ALL graphics processing - I mean it's capable of running some pretty demanding games!
Putting aside the issue of constant fan noise, there is no reason AT ALL, why using an external monitor should tax the i7 CPU this way - it's not as though Logic is graphically demanding... far from it.
I am on 10.6.8, Logic 9.1.5, all apps up to date via "Software Update".
I will of course, be contacting Apple...
